...Molly Wilder Professor Barros FYS: Revised essay 1 October 5, 2011 Silence is Power It was a beautiful Sunday morning and the entire church of St. Louis in Batesville, Indiana, was full. There was nothing unusual about the Catholic mass that day—the congregation was alive, music echoed triumphantly, and the sermon was enthusiastic and thought provoking for all. Everything went as it typically does until the end when it was time for the weekly announcements. Instead of news about an upcoming fish fry or a congratulations message for a recently baptized newborn baby in the parish, one of our priests, Father Stephen, came out of the vestibule to the podium. He had recently been “demoted” in his role at the parish, but no one would have expected the extent to which his bitter words would be revealed to the congregation. Father Stephen stood at the podium on the altar while giving his speech of resignation from the parish. It was clear that he was frustrated and annoyed at his recent demotion, and he portrayed this dissatisfaction through a harsh speech. The purpose of this essay is to examine the discourse of the priest’s speech. I will discuss its passionate nature and its brevity--how the speaker conceals information from the listeners and what this means. We will use this evidence to argue how silence demonstrates more power than the actual power the priest possesses. * 1 2 3 1 2 3 “Over the past 25 years of my Priestly ordination and service, I have never...

...ABSTRACT: This report explores critical discourse analysis as a theory in rhetoric discourse and speech act and pragmatics. The framework of analysis includes the mixture of my own ideas and theory of various experts such and Aristotle, Tuan Van Dijk, H.P Grice and Robert Dilts. As critical discourse analysis is a very flexible term of social linguistic study and it allows one to go with the own ideas, here I have chosen suitable analytical tool of experts to analyze the two different discourse, one is verbal discourse ( Tryst with Destiny) and second is written discourse ( Toyoda’s statement 2013) and at the end comparison of both discourse. Key words: critical discourse analysis, rhetoric discourse, speech act, pragmatics, social linguistic, tryst with destiny, Toyoda’s statement 2013. INTRODUCTION Critical discourse analysis (CDA) comprises three inter-related processes of analysis which are linked up with three inter-related dimensions of discourse.

...Catering Theory 2 Question 1 What factors influence the visual effect food has on a customer? Explain your answer. I believe that personal preferences, background, religion, time of month and day even can influence the visual effect food has on a customer. The chef‟s responsibility is to present a dish that will be visually appealing to a wide variety of customers and in this respect the following techniques can be used: Contrast Harmony Simplicity Garnishes However, as outlined above in my opinion personal factors are key in the way customers perceive food visually. A very hungry individual might find a big portion visually stimulating but same cannot be said for an individual that is sick or on a special diet. A pork chop can be the most beautiful thing in the world for some, but for others that have religious constraints it can be a complete disaster. The examples can continue with positive stimuli for some being negative stimuli for others and in my opinion there can be as many factors influencing customers as there are customers so the combinations of stimuli is almost endless. Question 2 Why is it important that food is served at the correct temperature? I think it is important to serve food at the correct temperature mainly because two factors: a) Food safety. b) Food service principles that If we are to classify the two factors presented above I would be inclined to say that Food Safety should be the main factor why establishments choose to serve food at the correct...

...quantities. On the other hand, it leads to food poisoning especially for when consumed which may result to losses and heavy litigation costs and damages. This makes it necessary to institute food safety mechanisms during handling and storage. Food safety is a process and not a one-off activity. It is a mechanism that ensures that at every stage, handling and storage is monitored to ensure that no compromises are made. There are a number of systems that are employed to facilitate food safety. For instance, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) are the most commonly used systems of assuring food safety. GMP is a process employed at processing plants to ensure that pre-packaged food is developed in hygienic processes. HACCP strategy HACCP is a program that is widely used in enhancing food safety. It is a system that employs control of temperature at various critical control points. In this case, food is kept at a particular range of temperatures which are considered safe. HACCP is a system that ensures that handling and...

...MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Food safety is related to the presence of food-borne hazards in food at the point of consumption (intake by the consumer).

...Established Corrective Action to be taken when the Critical Limit has been Exceeded HHACCP1 HBH-1 2:00-300 MWF January 20, 2016 Submitted to: Ma’am Vivien E. Rios Submitted by: Group 5 Ronald H. Schmidt and Debby Newslow2 Under a properly implemented HACCP System, whenever a deviation from a critical limit (CL) for a critical control point (CCP) occurs, there shall be a corrective action. A deviation is a failure to meet a CL. It indicates that a possible food safety hazard may have occurred and that unsafe product may have been produced. Thus, corrective actions must be immediate and must trigger an automatic review of the HACCP plan. Corrective actions and expected actions or outcomes, as defined by different agencies and organizations, are presented in Table 1. The HACCP team should routinely pay close attention to operational trends. This should include tracking the frequency of the process adjustments that are required when operating limits are exceeded. A pattern of exceeding operating limits on a regular basis could serve as a warning that a deviation may be imminent. I. Properties of Corrective Actions * Specific: Corrective actions are required for each affected CCP, and for each and every deviation at each CCP. * Immediate and comprehensive: The time for corrective action is dependent upon the monitoring frequency. All food products affected and produced within the monitoring time period must be brought under control. Holding and storage provisions for...

...ISO 9000 - Quality management The ISO 9000 family addresses various aspects of quality management and contains some of ISO’s best known standards. The standards provide guidance and tools for companies and organizations who want to ensure that their products and services consistently meet customer’s requirements, and that quality is consistently improved. ISO 9001:2008 ISO 9001:2008 sets out the criteria for a quality management system and is the only standard in the family that can be certified to (although this is not a requirement). It can be used by any organization, large or small, regardless of its field of activity. In fact ISO 9001:2008 is implemented by over one million companies and organizations in over 170 countries. This standard is based on a number of quality management principles including a strong customer focus, the motivation and implication of top management, the process approach and continual improvement. These principles are explained in more detail in the pdf Quality Management Principles. Using ISO 9001:2008 helps ensure that customers get consistent, good quality products and services, which in turn brings many business benefits. Certification to ISO 9001:2008 Checking that the system works is a vital part of ISO 9001:2008. An organization must perform internal audits to check how its quality management system is working. An organization may decide to invite an independent certification body to verify that it is in conformity to the standard, but...
