My intake of calcium is almost to the daily intake level of 1000mg. The food sources we can get calcium from our milk, sardines with bones, cheddar cheese, turnip greens, tofu, broccoli and waffles.

If there is an excess in calcium there could be constipation, kidney stones and interfere with absorption of other minerals. My level of calcium is 898.52 and I could tke in some more milk in my diet to get the recommended intake level.

...One of the first things that I had to do was make a wagon cover. I had to sew it by hand as well as all the clothes for our journey. I used sacks that I spun at night while my husband read to me, and other women that were planning to leave with us would gathered with me during the months before and sew quilts with me. It was a great bonding event while we sewed quilts together and brought closer together. When it came time for us to leave it was very sad. Some friends spend the night with us and others arrived at daylight. All places of business and the schools were closed and everyone came to say goodbye. We gathered along the Oregon Trail at small towns along the Missouri River call “jumping off points”, Independence St. Joseph and Council Bluffs were among these small towns. Our wagon was made of seasoned wood to withstand extreme temperatures and was hauled by four oxen. Tools and spare parts were stored under our wagon. We had utensils including forks and knives, plates, cups, a kettle, frypan, a coffee pot that were packed inside. Our food consisted of about 200 pounds of flour 150 pounds of bacon, 10 pounds coffee, 20 pounds of sugar, and 10 pounds of salt chips, beef, rice, dried beans, dried fruits, pickles, and other foods were also packed. Our wagon trains arrive at a jumping point in March and left in April when the snow melted enough, hopefully we will arrive in Oregon before winter.

Ancient Rome although had a lot of exports with all its goods it sometimes also needed imports for extra food storage or diversity because of this Rome imported a lot of goods such as beef, corn, olive oil, wine, and spices.

...from my family’s cattle. This means that their normal living situation is almost free range. The cattle are oblivious of their surroundings when they are suddenly being retained in a pen, and they are not accustomed to having people around them. However, the majority of cattle relax rather quickly. The easiest way to catch and halter your animal is to use a lasso and a confined pen. Once you have them lassoed, you should attempt to walk up calmly beside them. Place your hand on their side to allow them to know you are there. Next, place the rope halter around their ears, over their nose, and under their jaw. Ensure the lead end is on the left side of the face. After catching your animal, you should tie him up to a fence and comb him off with a curry comb. These circular combs have three rings and slightly sharp ends. Combing your market steer with this comb will allow you to extract the dead hair. Over the next months, this will become a crucial part of preparing cattle for the fair, working with your cattle as much as possible will allow your fair experience to progress smoothly.

...for me how there is people (tribes) living in the Amazon forest when I cannot picture myself without technology living in a rural environment. I’ve also been always interested in the way they live and communicate among them so the fact that we have deforestation taking place there makes me so sad because it is something so beautiful and unique. The first article is mainly about the consequences of deforestation of the Amazon forest in America. In this article it is stated that a complete deforestation of the Amazon could result in a reduction of twenty per cent of rain and snowfall. This doesn’t sound scary but the real problem is that according to the Princeton University (located in New Jersey) who came up with this report, it also means that this reduction would lead to water and food shortages and great risk of forest fires. The reason behind these shortages is because due to the change that would happen in the snowpack of Sierra Nevada which is the main source of irrigation for California’s Central Valley which consequently would affect the food/water supply not only for California but the entire United States. Also, a naked Amazon could contribute to a weather cycle of extremely dry air which during the winter months would bring rain to California and the Sierra Nevada region while drying out the Pacific North West. In this article, it is also indicated that along with this change in the weather cycle, there would also be meandering winds that move east or west across the...

...Brief History of the Company Jollibee was founded by Tony Tan Caktiong who was born and raised in Fujian, one of China’s poorest provinces. His family migrated to the Philippines to look for better opportunities and began cooking in a Chinese temple. Because he spent so much time on the kitchen with his parents, he developed incredibly sensitive taste buds and learned his entrepreneurial mindset. In 1975, when Tony was only 22, he used his family’s life savings to open two Ice Cream Parlors in Cubao, Quezon City. The stores were very popular due to their fantastic customer service and generous scoops of delicious ice cream. Tony wanted to expand his business and hired a management consultant Manuel Lumba who discovered people craved hot food, like hamburgers. Despite the huge challenge of international companies such as McDonald’s, Tony transformed his ice cream shops into a burger chain. By 1978, Jollibee was born. Within its first year, Jollibee had sales of 2 million dollars. They became a 100% Filipino owned company and opened 7 more restaurants. The company started out with the Yumburger as their flagship product, but quickly added the Spaghetti Special in 1979. One year later they launched another Filipino hit, the Chicken Joy and French fries. Within only 2 years of Jollibee’s existence they began opening franchises throughout the Philippines, expanding their reach and popularity. By the end of the 1980’s Jollibee had added many options to their menu...

...important crop to them that they actually gave sacrifices to ensure that the Corn crops came out with abundance. With all of the changing it has done many do not understand that Corn is actually a grass and a sophisticated one at that. Corn has adapted itself to many environments and has changed forms dramatically over decades of being grown. Although Corn has advanced many times over, it still requires human intervention. Corn has been so much more than just food for people. From creating food for the livestock we grow and eat to being used in many everyday products from medicines down to the rubber in tires and gas in cars. While for many years Corn was thought to be just another vegetable Corn is actually grass that has evolved many different ways, been implemented in many products, and has become a part of everyday life. Corn has many points where evolution has taken its role in the Corn we know today (Omnivores Dilemma P. 37-38). The structure of Corn has been a crucial factor for its survival. The structure of Corn cannot be weak and flimsy; it has to withstand harsh weather, plowing, birds, and or insects. Many times Corn can adjust itself to the different climates whether there is abundance of water or lack thereof. “Like a giant wick, a growing corn plant pulls moisture out of the soil. Some of that moisture escapes through the plant’s leaves and enters the atmosphere (transpiration). Water vapor also enters the air from lakes and other surfaces (evaporation). (www2.ucar.edu)”...

...Unemployment Problem in Bangladesh Unemployment means the state of being without any work both for the educated and uneducated for earning one's livelihood. Unemployment problem has become a great concern all over the world. But nowhere in the world is this problem as acute as in Bangladesh. Thousands of people in our country are without any job. In 2010, Bangladesh’s unemployment rate was 5.1% (Source: Bangladesh Burrow of Statistics). Source: UN data, Country Profile: Bangladesh Cause of unemployment: Bangladesh, suffers from large-scale underemployment; especially in agriculture, a large part of the population could be removed without reducing agricultural output. Beyond agriculture, disguised unemployment also exists in industries, offices and organizations, particularly in the public sector. Unemployment among the educated youths is rather high in Bangladesh. The unemployment rate for the population having secondary education and above is significantly higher than those with a lower level of education. The unemployment rate for educated women is higher compared to the male population. In Bangladesh salaried employment in the formal sectors is not big enough to take care of the huge number of unemployed. Employment promotion, especially, creation of self-employment opportunities, continues to be the most important function of the Bureau of Manpower Employment and Training. The Fifth Five-Year Plan (1997-2002) had set a target of creating additional employment of 6...

...I. Introduction: Chinese cuisine is served anywhere , even in our own homes. Even at our simple gatherings we usually include Chinese cuisine in our entrails. Chinese cuisine is introduced in the Philippines as early as the 10th century. From appetizers to main curses like dim sums, noodles, meat dishes like sweet and sour, asado, roasted and many more. We Filipinos love to eat Chinese foods. Most Filipinos loved Chinese foods because Chinese influences them to their cuisine. Filipino cuisine is influenced principally by China, Spain, and the United States, integrated into the pre-colonial indigenous Filipino cooking practices. When restaurants were established in the 19th century, Chinese food became a staple of the pansiterias, with the food given Spanish names. The "comida China" Chinese food includes arroz caldo rice and chicken gruel, and morisqueta tostada fried rice. When the Spaniards came, the food influences they brought were from both Spain and Mexico, as it was through the vice-royalty of Mexico that the Philippines were governed.In the Philippines, trade with China started in the 11th century, as documents show, but it is conjectured that undocumented trade may have started even two centuries earlier. Trade pottery excavated in Laguna, for example, includes pieces dating to the Tang Dynasty. The Chinese trader supplied the silks sent to Mexico and Spain in the galleon trade. In return they took back products of field, forest - beeswax...
