...CAPÍTULO II. MARCO TEÓRICO 2.1 La producción de naranja en México y en el mundo La naranja es uno de los frutos cítricos más populares, rico en vitamina C y aceites esenciales. Su pulpa está formada típicamente por once gajos llenos de jugo con sabor que va de lo ácido a lo dulce. En las huertas llega a ser sensible a las heladas. El futo que llegó a América en el segundo viaje de Cristóbal Colón, es un perenne que se ha adaptado de forma sobresaliente al clima mexicano. Las variedades cultivadas en México son la valencia, la navel-lane-late y la navelina. La naranja valencia o valenciana entra en producción en mayo, es jugosa y dulce y por ello muy orientada a la producción de jugo. Durante los últimos diez años, se destinó al cultivo de este fruto un promedio de 341 mil hectáreas, con un crecimiento promedio anual de 0.2 por ciento. Fue en 2002 el año en que se registró mayor extensión terrestre de siembra con 349 mil 237 hectáreas y 2005 cuando la producción registró el mejor rendimiento con 13 toneladas por cada hectárea. Por tal motivo, se deduce que México posee gran producción de este cítrico, el cual posee una de las fibras dietéticas más nutritivas, pues no es solamente el jugo. La fibra dietética que contiene se consideró por mucho tiempo como material de desecho, razón por la cual se vieron disminuidos sus niveles de consumo en la alimentación. El mejoramiento de los procesos tecnológicos, particularmente de la molienda, favoreció esta situación, ya que los...

...Noura Badr EL Din Anth 202 Dr. John Schaefer 900061495 15 March 2012 Film Review Letter to the Dead Eytan Kapon and Andre Iteanu are ethnologists who have always been interested in the exceptional people of Papua New Guinea. They shed light on the people of Jajau in their movie "Letter to the Dead" which was filmed in December 1999 and January 2000. This was due to the rumors that were widespread at the time that included the return of the dead and of Christ on the eve of the new millennium. The film aims to encourage reflection on the relationship between the West and the third world countries and how the people of Jajau view Whitemen. Moreover, the movie discusses the beliefs, customs, traditions, rituals and values of the inhabitants of Papua New Guinea and draws attention to new ideas and a unique mentality that may seem bizarre and new to modernized people. In Jajau, most citizens believe that their parents will return from the dead and they always preach their resurrection in churches and perform rituals to honor them and communicate with them. They call these rituals “pondos“. Pondos are taken very seriously in the orokaivan culture. It involves dancing, praying for the dead, exchanging gifts and the person who hosts the pondo has to feed everyone who is invited. During the ritual pigs are usually carved on the platform. Food and clothing are also a huge issue in Papua new Guinea; they have a lot of food such as taros, bananas...

...Baseball & Health Jeremy Rostker 04/17/08 A healthy and active lifestyle is important to the quality of my life and the achievement of my goals as it allows me to live longer and participate in activities I enjoy. It also strengthens my immune system and lowers my chance of disease. My goal in life is to be successful in all of my endeavors. Doing things like playing sports, participating in P.E. and taking a biology class are helping me to live healthy. I make sure to stay healthy and in shape because I know it will benefit me greatly. If I didn’t play sports or eat healthy I would likely become overweight and unhealthy. Although my chances of becoming a professional athlete are slim (I know this because my teacher did a probability exercise demonstrating this to get me to focus on “academics”!), a healthy life is essential for me to overcome the odds. Statistics show that overweight people are more likely to suffer heart disease, diabetes and other illnesses. They also have a shorter life span. According to the American Heart Association, in 2006, about 136 million U.S. adults were overweight or obese and 25 million children were at risk of becoming overweight. Besides poor eating habits, smoking is also a major contributor to unhealthiness. Smoking can damage your body and lifestyle immensely. When you smoke, you’re at risk for cancer. Smoking can also cause gum...

...displacement and protectionist policies that denied Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people basic rights, separated families and entrenched discrimination and inequalities. Over the past centuries there have been many changes in the attitudes and rights regarding the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Despite the efforts by Australian government’s initiatives of ‘Closing the Gap’ in an attempt to address the inequalities between indigenous and white Australians there are still vast gaps in terms of socio-economic status, health care and welfare services, life expectancy, education, employment, housing ownership, land tenure and land rights. However, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people still experience an ongoing prejudice and discrimination as a marginalised minority group. Therefore, there is still a great deal of negativity that needs addressing in our society. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people still experience ongoing prejudice and discrimination as a marginalised minority group (Pedersen, Beven, Walker & Griffiths, 2004). Despite efforts by the government to address the inequalities, some Australian research finds a relationship between racism against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the belief that such views are shared by the wider population (Pedersen & Griffiths, 2002). It is suggested that many Australians believe that Aboriginal and Torres strait Islander people have the right to equity, but they are perceived...

...Movement as Eddie Koiki Mabo was during 1962 to 1992. His significance is predominantly evident in the famous ‘Mabo vs State of Queensland’ case, however, he brought about much more to the table than just a change in Australian law. Throughout his life Mabo accomplished numerous feats for Aboriginal rights, such as serving as secretary for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Advancement League (ATSIAL), campaigning for self-determination in Torres Strait communities and overturning two centuries of accepted Australian legislation. These accomplishments can be split into two groups, changes in society and changes in Government law. One example of change in society is the advancement and recognition of Indigenous people in Australian society. Mabo worked tirelessly to better his people in the community, this was by: exposing police brutality and racial discrimination against indigenous people, with a strong focus on the latter in...
