Concerning Coffee Consumption

4. “Coffee… the Effects are as Good as the Aroma,” written by
Edward H. Nessel (2012),
asserts that coffee is both delicious and provides a myriad of
health benefits in every cup.
However, while Nessel (2012) acknowledges that coffee should
not be consumed in excess, he
does not discuss the potential hazards that are posed to regular
coffee drinkers, focusing instead
almost exclusively on the positive. An opposing study by Ja
Young Jung (2013) of Seoul
Venture University posits that the potential negative side effects
of habitual coffee consumption
are often ignored due to the popularity of the drink and the
conflicting information provided to
the consumers.
Summary
According to Nessel’s (2012) research, coffee is packed with
unexpected health benefits.
Polyphenols, one of the coffee bean’s many components, are the
primary cause of these amazing
effects due to their key ingredient: Chlorogenic acid. This acid
is known to both reduce chronic
inflammation and act as a mental stimulant. “Regular coffee
consumption… lowers the risk of

5. developing type 2 diabetes by up to 67 percent” (Nessel, 2012,
p. 6) because certain enzyme
activities that increase blood sugar are blocked by the
chlorogenic acid. This same acid also
strengthens and protects DNA from potential damage,
theoretically lowering the risks for a
variety of different cancers. Nessel believes that Americans in
general should be made aware of
these health benefits, as well as the type of coffee that they
should be drinking; “green beans,”
for example, are packed with polyphenols and should be favored
over their more popular roasted
counterparts, since the all-important polyphenols can be
reduced or even destroyed by roasting.
Article critique introductions
need to include the name of
the article and its author.
The Summary section should provide an
overview of the information that will be
analyzed in the Analysis portion of the critique.

6. Use these guiding questions to help structure your Summary:
What was this article about?
Why was this article written?
Who is the target audience for this article?
What is the author’s opinion on this topic?
What is the author’s main argument?
The introduction is the only section
that does not receive its own level
heading. It follows immediately
after your title, which is boldfaced.

Analysis
While Nessel’s (2012) arguments for coffee consumption are
convincing, there are a
number of other studies that show coffee can have just as many
negative effects as positive.
Jung’s (2013) study, for example, finds that caffeine leads to
“dependency, withdrawal
symptoms… and… both psychological and physical symptoms

7. of addiction” (p.155).
Additionally, while Nessel (2012) states that the polyphenols
present in coffee can help to
prevent cancer, Jung (2013) finds that the equally present
caffeine can negatively affect the
reactions of cellular tissues exposed to carcinogens. Nessel’s
(2012) argument for the
consumption of coffee almost completely hinges on the coffee
consumed being of the correct
type (the aforementioned green beans); otherwise, the health
benefits that he enumerates can be
considered null due to the process of roasting and a general
preference to add sugar, cream, and
other flavorings to the beverages. Jung (2013) takes these
factors, as well as the other chemical
components of the coffee bean, into consideration for his study,
producing more reliable results.
Conclusion
Edward Nessel’s (2012) article is enlightening and filled with
positive support for his
argument, but does not include enough information about the
potential downfalls of the drink.
This article would benefit from further research into these
possible health risks of drinking coffee

8. and providing, where possible, counters against these. However,
the data provided regarding the
benefits polyphenols have been shown to have in diabetics and
patients at risk for cancer is
extremely convincing, and obviously well-researched. The
compilation of this important
information about coffee and polyphenols into a single article is
almost certainly beneficial to
those studying this subject.
The Analysis section should evaluate the
author’s arguments and convey your
opinion on the topic to the reader.
Keep in mind that you are not limited to
one paragraph per section. If you have
several different issues to analyze, be
sure to use multiple paragraphs to better
organize your information.
Use these guiding questions to help structure your Analysis:

9. Is the information comparable with other current research?
What are the strong points? The weak points?
Has the author used reliable sources and facts?
Were the arguments convincing to you? Why or why not?
Provide at least one other source to
evaluate your article against. Be sure to
use peer-reviewed, scholarly sources.
The Conclusion is where you will
assert your final opinion of the article
and include any recommendations for
improvement.
Use these guiding questions to help structure your Conclusion:
What improvements could be made to the article and its
arguments?
Is the information in the article useful?
Were the arguments effective?
Do you think that the author has made a significant contribution
to
their field with this article?

1. Describe your job description writing process and why you
chose to include the components you chose.

11. Monster (2021) states that a good job description has some
critical steps for it to be considered “winning”:
· List the everything you require (essentials), in order
· Make the description so that the applicant can visualize what
it’s like to work at your company.
· Provide what it would take to succeed at your company
I wanted to ensure that the description was simple but included
all pertinent information and that the information was given in a
logical order (Monster, 2021). This is to ensure that it is clear,
and the job is understood by the candidate. When a job
description is not clear a potential candidate may pass over the
posting. Job description clarity will also mitigate
misunderstandings later in the process. Also, the clear job
description allows for the candidate’s qualifications and
attributes to be compared to the job description itself (Rohr,
2016).
2. Detail a timeline for a job you want to hire for.
The posting will stay open for 30 days (may be extended if the
right candidate has not been attained.) The process should be a
quick and through as possible to not lose the desired candidate.
Some positions, due to complexities, may take longer than
others, but the process should only take as long as needed.
Week 2: Application reviews; select qualified candidates (based
on applications and resume)
Week 3-4: Conduct pre-interview screening calls
Week 5: Conduct interviews with select candidates
Week 6: Follow-up interviews
Week 7: Offer letters / calls
Week 8: Start onboarding
3. Detail who will be involved in the interview process and
why.
Security Team Lead – the person the candidate will be working
with on a regular basis
Manager/s – will have interaction with managers on duty
Hiring Manager – Administrative purposes
4. Discuss 3-5 questions you would recommend for the initial

12. screening.
What industries have you worked in as a security guard?
What were your responsibilities in your last security role?
What are some types of security systems that you have work
with?
Have you ever dealt with a difficult visitor? What did you do in
this situation?
Have you ever dealt with a medical issue while on shift? How
did you respond?
