...Alcohol is a compound of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, which can be combined together in many different ways. There are many different kinds of alcohol, the commonest being called ethyl alcohol. Ethyl alcohol, or ethanol, is present in varying amounts in beers and wines, and in distilled liquors such as whiskey, gin, and rum. Alcohol consumption touches many million people around the world. The use of alcohol depends on an individual’s social, cultural, or religious background. One of the earliest mentions of wine making is from an Egyptian papyrus dated 3,500 BC. However, alcohol drinking is thought to go back almost as far as the human race does. Alcohol has been central to social, religious and personal use all over the world throughout history. When an individual consumes alcohol there are both short term and long term effects. The most immediate effect of alcohol consumption is change of mood. Even though alcohol is makes you feel excitement, happiness and relaxation it is in fact a depressant. Alcohol in the bloodstream causes impairment of motor co-ordination and slows down central nervous system activity, which gives the impression of clumsiness and can lead to alcohol related accidents. The more intoxicated a person has slurred speech, blurred vision and the loss of balance. Furthermore it switches off the part of the brain that controls judgment which can result in greater risk taking. However drinking in very large quantities can damage vital bodily functions...

...Business Proposal for online expansion – Food Corps Jermaine Ross Western Governors University Business Proposal for online expansion – Food Corps In a small town in North Carolina, the United States Marine Corps combat force is training for an upcoming combat mission to Iraq. With the Marine Corps standard of not allowing service members to shop outside of the military base while in uniform, several service members are faced with a dilemma. The options of finding a nutritious meal are limited to local takeout or the not so nutritious military meals ready to eat (Survival Acres, 2014). As a solution to the problem, a young Marine Sergeant pulls out the business flyer he received in the mail from a local business. The flyer provided a solution to many of the Marine’s meal problems. The business was offering to pick up meals from any local dining establishment while only charging a small fee that was close to what a tip would be at many of those establishments. The service member placed the call, Food Corps arrived within the hour delivering over twenty meals and the rest was history. Developed in 2008, Food Corps has proudly served the needs of America’s heroes in their time of need. Food Corps helps feed the United States Military and emergency response personnel by helping the hero find the food they want and delivering it to them when they need it most. Food Corps has partnered with restaurant...

...“You’ve never seen an apple before. Not even once. To really know what an apple is… to be interested in it, to understand it, to converse with it, is really seeing it. Gazing at it for a while and observing its shadow… feeling its every curve, turning it around, taking a bite out of it, imagining the sunlight absorbed in it… That is really seeing it.” – Poetry teacher, Kim Yongtak The significance of seeing the world in a meaningful way is at the heart of Lee Chang-dong’s gentle, yet devastatingly humanistic film, Poetry. The masterwork grasps a certain intangibility of life; a certain meaning of existence that can only be seen if, coincidentally, one tries to understand the film like a poem. In the same way that we’ll never “see” an apple until we try to “understand” it, we’ll never truly see a tree, hear a bird sing, or come to fathom, in any meaningful way, the existence of another human being until we really try. Mija, the film’s protagonist, is a 66-year old raising her teenage grandson, Wook, in a tiny, cluttered apartment in an unnamed South Korean city. The film begins with her being diagnosed as an Alzheimer’s patient. With the onset of this disease, her life begins to lose meaning: words fade from her vocabulary, connections with the material word diminish, and people don’t seem to make much sense to her. Considering this, her pursuit to study poetry is a way to imbue her life with new meaning. And while this pursuit begins as a pastime, it soon transforms into a passion...

Issues and Outlook Profile KFC is one of the world's largest fast-food chains, which held more than 55 percent of the US market in terms of sales. It is also one of the first fast-food chains to go international. Nowadays, KFC operates more than 5,200 restaurants in the United States and more than 15,000 units around the world (Loh, 2009). KFC's early international strategy was to grow its company and franchise restaurant base throughout the world. By 2000, however KFC refocused its international strategy on several high growth markets such as Canada, Australia, China, Thailand and so on. KFC planned to base much of its growth in these markets on company-owned restaurants, which gave KFC greater control over product quality, service and restaurant cleanliness. In other international markets, KFC planned to grow primarily through...

To me, Korean food is very unique .But my expeience with Korean food was rare. So I Google lincoln’s best korean restaurant, and then I found Yami Korean Cuisine. It was like 15 minuntes drive distance from campus, which was not too bad. I have friend who recommend this place to me before, she said the Galbi Short Ribs are really good. I ordered the Dolsot Bibimbap, which is a bibimbap prepared in sizzing hot stone bowl. On the menu, it introduced that bibimbap is “steamed rice with beef, sauted mushroom, spinach, carrot, zucchini, bean sprouts, and onion. Topped with fried egg and served with hot pepper sauce. ”. I did not like the flavor of carrot so I asked a Dolsot Bibimbap without carrot in it. The dish got different colors from the vegetables and meat, which made it looked really nice. The waitress told me stird all the ingredients together, so it is basiclly like a korean mixed rice. The Dolsot, which is the hot stone pot, keeps cooking the rice even after the dish was served. I thought it was interesting and new to me. In Chinese food, we have the dishes called Xiang Guo, which is a hot pot has fire under it to keeps on cooking while serving. But in Korean food, they made the Dolsot very hot and use the heat from the pot itself to cook. So always be careful with it...

...Ban Smoking in All Public Places Felicia N Nelson Virginia College Online Ban Smoking in All Public Places Smoking has become one of the burning issues of today’s democratic society. Despite the fact that many researches proved the harm that smoking inflicted on the health of a person, both smokers and non-smokers continue speculating about smoking and its hazardous impact. Naturally, legislators have become prone to banning smoking in public places in order to ensure health and safety of non-smokers, who want to avoid the exposure to cigarette smoke involuntarily. The smokers themselves share different viewpoints as to the smoking ban. However, the tendency is continuing toward the ban of smoking in the majority of public places, which include bars, restaurants, stores, workplaces and others. To protect nonsmokers, many states are banning smoking in public places (See Figure 1). In addition to the states that have been listed as having smoke free laws, 10 more states have enacted laws that prohibits smoking in one or two venues, but not all three venues. This essay focuses on laws that will prohibit smoking in private-sector worksites, restaurants, and bars. (See Figure 1) These three venues have been selected because they are a major source of exposure for nonsmoking patrons in public places. The CDC considers a state smoke-free law to be comprehensive if it prohibits smoking in these three venues. Some states have enact laws that...

...past. This is becasue, when new foods were offered, such as alcholic beverages or candy bars, they were offered in one size, however, now that they have established a place in the market, the smallest size offered exceeds the size that the product was orginally available in. This is suspected that current sizes are 2 to 5 times larger than original. Research also proved how the promotion of larger portions has affected the demand as well as obesity in America. The larger sizes are now used as a direct selling point. Advertisment is written clearly on the label of the packages such as, "now 25% more," or "family size." This is more appealing to many customers becasue they believe they are getting a better deal, and getting more food. Restuarants have moved in to using bigger plates, bakers are now selling larger muffins, pizza joints are using larger pizza pans and fast food joints are now offering larger drinks and bigger containers for fries. All these ways, although they way seem small, do add up to have a huge effect on the obesity in this country. This research indicates that marketplace portions of foods have a huge effect on the energy to US diets, and why is has increased significantly since the 1970s and exceeded the federal guidlines for dietary help and food labels. This may have tha casue of many different reasons, but one of which being economic. The food service industry has continually grown larger in the past 40 years, as well as people have been depending on...

The accommodation and food services share of employment in Australia represents 51.2% (Department of Industry, Innovation, Science, Research and Tertiary Education Report 2012) and New South Wales has around 50,000 food businesses which have registered their activities with NSW Health.

...Finalized Business Plan for Alberto's Mexican Food Generic Strategy Alberto’s Mexican Food is the largest and most successful authentic Mexican Food franchise chain of restaurants on the West Coast. Found in 1975, and today has more than 90 national locations spanning through California and Utah. There is currently no authentic Mexican Food restaurants in my hometown of New Jersey with a business model like Alberto’s Mexican Food offers. For residents of New Jersey their only two options for Mexican Food is Taco Bell or small, sit-down type of family owned businesses which are few and in-between. Being from New Jersey and living in California for over 20 years it was obvious to me how authentic Mexican Food representation was lacking in my home state of New Jersey and it was my goal to change that by creating the first Albert’s Mexican Food restaurant in New Jersey. Source of finance will be raised through family members who are also interested in this business and want to see it succeed. Initial startup costs are expected to be between $319k and $534k (entrepreneur.com, 2014). The business will be located in Union City, New Jersey which boasts the largest Hispanic community in the state at 84.7% (nj.com, 2014). This Alberto’s Mexican Food will have 12 employees to run the business. Two managers, four cooks, four cashiers, and two dedicated drive-through delivery cashiers. More or less employees will be evaluated periodically based on the needs of the restaurant...
