Don't Blame the Eater
By DAVID ZINCZENKO
NOV. 23, 2002
If ever there were a newspaper headline custom-made for Jay Leno's monologue, this
was it. Kids taking on McDonald's this week, suing the company for making them fat.
Isn't that like middle-aged men suing Porsche for making them get speeding tickets?
Whatever happened to personal responsibility?
I tend to sympathize with these portly fast-food patrons, though. Maybe that's because I
used to be one of them.
I grew up as a typical mid-1980's latchkey kid. My parents were split up, my dad off
trying to rebuild his life, my mom working long hours to make the monthly bills. Lunch
and dinner, for me, was a daily choice between McDonald's, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried
Chicken or Pizza Hut. Then as now, these were the only available options for an
American kid to get an affordable meal. By age 15, I had packed 212 pounds of torpid
teenage tallow on my once lanky 5-foot-10 frame.
Then I got lucky. I went to college, joined the Navy Reserves and got involved with a
health magazine. I learned how to manage my diet. But most of the teenagers who live,
as I once did, on a fast-food diet won't turn their lives around: They've crossed under the
golden arches to a likely fate of lifetime obesity. And the problem isn't just theirs -- it's
all of ours.
Before 1994, diabetes in children was generally caused by a genetic disorder -- only
about 5 percent of childhood cases were obesity-related, or Type 2, diabetes. Today,
according to the National Institutes of Health, Type 2 diabetes accounts for at least 30
percent of all new childhood cases of diabetes in this country.
Not surprisingly, money spent to treat diabetes has skyrocketed, too. The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention estimate that diabetes accounted for $2.6 billion in
health care costs in 1969. Today's number is an unbelievable $100 billion a year.
Shouldn't we know better than to eat two meals a day in fast-food restaurants? That's
one argument. But where, exactly, are consumers -- particularly teenagers -- supposed
to find alternatives? Drive down any thoroughfare in America, and I guarantee you'll see
one of our country's more than 13,000 McDonald's restaurants. Now, drive back up the
block and try to find someplace to buy a grapefruit.
Complicating the lack of alternatives is the lack of information about what, exactly, we're
consuming. There are no calorie information charts on fast-food packaging, the way
there are on grocery items. Advertisements don't carry warning labels the way tobacco
ads do. Prepared foods aren't covered under Food and Drug Administration labeling
laws. Some fast-food purveyors will provide calorie information on request, but even
that can be hard to understand.
For example, one company's Web site lists its chicken salad as containing 150 calories;
the almonds and noodles that come with it (an additional 190 calories) are listed
separately. Add a serving of t.

Don Marquis, in “Why Abortion is Immoral,” champions an account of the wrongness of killing that he calls the ‘future-like-ours’ account. Marquis considers two alternative accounts of the wrongness of killing that have different implications for the ethics of abortion – the discontinuation account and the desire account. Explain the first “problem” that Marquis raises against the desire account. How does Tooley tentatively respond to a similar worry in “Abortion and Infanticide”?

In this journal it talks about the public’s perception on white-collar crime and its focus on gender. It talks about the relationship between crime type and the respondent’s perception of appropriate punishment and Its relation to gender. I do feel like a weakness to this survey would be location. They chose to talk to people that were coming from jury duty and I feel that puts a bias factor on keeping the data general. Most people coming from jury duty are most likely inclined to feel that the criminals deserve to be charged. Which is shown in the results because all respondents perceived the six crimes to be very serious offense. I also feel that the scenarios should not have been so vague as reported in the study because it does leave a lot of room of confusion and misunderstanding for the people filling out the survey. I do feel that this study is relative to my paper because they talk about how public views the punishment, attitudes and motivation which is going to interesting to do more research.

In this journal it talks about the controversy surrounding the ranking of crime seriousness of white-collar crimes relative to street crimes. I do feel that a limitation in this study is that they did not include enough varieties in crimes which could alter the results possibly. I found this survey interesting because I feel that it was the most random survey done. I feel like the information on here would be the most accurate in getting a consensus on the public’s opinion. I also liked how they included the criminal justice system personnel’s perception in the study because no other study discussed that which gives a whole different perspective on my whole topic. This will help my paper because they used random, national probability samples that will help my theory that white-collar crime is as bad or even worse than street crime.

In this journal it talks about how studies have opposed old understandings of the publics feelings towards white-collar crime. They participants were asked to look at white-collar crimes and non-violent street crimes and then decided which of the two was more serious.

DOCUMENT 4
Dwight D. Eisenhower, “Farewell Address to the Nation” (1961)
Document Background: On January 17, 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his farewell address to the nation. Over the previous two decades, the United States had undergone numerous significant changes, including World War II, the beginning of the Cold War, the Korean War, the emergence of nuclear weapons, a rapidly growing economy, and several substantial Civil Rights victories. Eisenhower, as a general and then as president, had been at the center of many of these. In his farewell address, Eisenhower focused on the Cold War with the Soviet Union and on the challenges facing the United States, including a warning about the growing power of the “military-industrial complex.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower:
I.
My fellow Americans:
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on issues of great moment, the wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the Nation.
My own relations with the Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member of the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate post-war period, and, finally, to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to serve the national good rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the Nation should go forward. So, my official relationship with the Congress ends in a feeling, on my part, of gratitude that we have been able to do so much together.
II.
We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest, the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress, riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human betterment.
III.
Throughout America's adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among nations. To strive for less would be un.

Do you agree with your classmate's view of whether the concept of state of nature is compatible with biblical Christianity? Be sure to add an original thought to advance the discussion.
Both Hobbes and Locke significantly try to expose the nature of man before the emergence of social existence. I believe that Locke's view on the state of nature is more persuasive than that of Hobbes. Ideally, Hobbes has a negative concept of the state of nature as his opinion is a representation of a state of permanent war, and the threat to steer the existence of individuals. He argues that all human beings are equal; hence any of them can take dominance over others irrespective of whether they use cunning or strength, which he sees as the two most essential qualities of the state of nature. Locke, on the contrary, argues that the state of nature is characterized by equality because every person has similar powers as others, implying a state of non-subjection. Conclusively Locke outlines the laws of nature that demonstrate equality amongst human beings. In contrast to the arguments of Hobbes, Locke's natural laws exist in the reality of the state of nature and are considered crucial characteristics of human nature since they are against individual freedom.
The state of nature is much founded on biblical concepts. From the biblical perspectives, some people (such as Moses and David) dominated others since God placed them in positions of power. Similar to the biblical teachings, people have evolved some having power or dominance over the rest due to the legal codes imposed on them. Throughout the history of humankind, people have believed that societies need to be governed by moral laws ascribed to them by their Creator. Accordingly, the state of nature is highly compatible with the biblical teachings as the humanity related governance has since time immemorial been based on what the people believed to the laws of their Creator. Similar to the people accorded authority over others in the Bible, the state of nature gives power to leaders who govern the societies.

Do We Overemphasize the Role of Culture in the Behavior ofRa.docx
Do We Overemphasize the Role of Culture in the Behavior of
Racial/Ethnic Minorities? Evidence of a Cultural (Mis)Attribution Bias in
American Psychology

Although culture influences all human beings, there is an assumption in American psychol-
ogy that culture matters more for members of certain groups. This article identifies and
provides evidence of the cultural (mis)attribution bias: a tendency to overemphasize the role
of culture in the behavior of racial/ethnic minorities, and to underemphasize it in the behavior of
Whites. Two studies investigated the presence of this bias with an examination of a decade of
peer reviewed research conducted in the United States (N � 434 articles), and an experiment
and a survey with psychology professors in the United States (N � 361 psychologists).
Archival analyses revealed differences in the composition of samples used in studies exam-
ining cultural or noncultural psychological phenomena. We also find evidence to suggest that
psychologists in the United States favor cultural explanations over psychological explana-
tions when considering the behavior and cognition of racial/ethnic minorities, whereas the
opposite pattern emerged in reference to Whites. The scientific ramifications of this phe-
nomenon, as well as alternatives to overcome it, are discussed in detail.
Keywords: bias, culture, ethnicity, race, cultural (mis)attribution bias
Supplemental materials: http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/amp0000099.supp
The crucial role of culture in shaping human behavior and
cognition has received increased attention in the last decade
(A. B. Cohen, 2009; Kitayama & Uskul, 2011). However,
despite widespread agreement about the psychological sig-
nificance of culture, several authors have argued that Amer-
ican psychology1 frequently associates culture with racial/
ethnic minorities more than Whites (Betancourt & López,
1993). This claim, to our knowledge, has yet to be tested
through an examination of the research literature or an
assessment of the opinion and assumptions of research
psychologists. In this article, we provide evidence of a
cultural (mis)attribution bias in American psychology: the
tendency to see racial/ethnic minorities as members of a
group whose traits, beliefs, and behaviors are shaped pri-
marily by culture, and to perceive the White racial/ethnic
majority as autonomous and independent actors who are
instead largely influenced by psychological processes. Be-
cause this bias rests on assumptions about human behavior
that are not supported by evidence and may lead to differ-
ential treatment of members of specific social groups, it
constrains psychologists’ explanations of behavior and cog-
nition. In two studies, we investigated the presence of this
bias in psychological research in the United States using
archival, experimental, and correlational methods.

DOCUMENT 4
Dwight D. Eisenhower, “Farewell Address to the Nation” (1961)
Document Background: On January 17, 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his farewell address to the nation. Over the previous two decades, the United States had undergone numerous significant changes, including World War II, the beginning of the Cold War, the Korean War, the emergence of nuclear weapons, a rapidly growing economy, and several substantial Civil Rights victories. Eisenhower, as a general and then as president, had been at the center of many of these. In his farewell address, Eisenhower focused on the Cold War with the Soviet Union and on the challenges facing the United States, including a warning about the growing power of the “military-industrial complex.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower:
I.
My fellow Americans:
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on issues of great moment, the wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the Nation.
My own relations with the Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member of the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate post-war period, and, finally, to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to serve the national good rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the Nation should go forward. So, my official relationship with the Congress ends in a feeling, on my part, of gratitude that we have been able to do so much together.
II.
We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest, the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress, riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human betterment.
III.
Throughout America's adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among nations. To strive for less would be un.

If so, does Miami offer any lessons from which the rest of the US might learn? Do you think that Miami is "post-racial" in the sense that there is a mixing together here that makes race and ethnicity matter less than in other parts of the US, and along those lines?

Do you agree with your classmates view of whether the concept of st.docx
Do you agree with your classmate's view of whether the concept of state of nature is compatible with biblical Christianity? Be sure to add an original thought to advance the discussion.
Both Hobbes and Locke significantly try to expose the nature of man before the emergence of social existence. I believe that Locke's view on the state of nature is more persuasive than that of Hobbes. Ideally, Hobbes has a negative concept of the state of nature as his opinion is a representation of a state of permanent war, and the threat to steer the existence of individuals. He argues that all human beings are equal; hence any of them can take dominance over others irrespective of whether they use cunning or strength, which he sees as the two most essential qualities of the state of nature. Locke, on the contrary, argues that the state of nature is characterized by equality because every person has similar powers as others, implying a state of non-subjection. Conclusively Locke outlines the laws of nature that demonstrate equality amongst human beings. In contrast to the arguments of Hobbes, Locke's natural laws exist in the reality of the state of nature and are considered crucial characteristics of human nature since they are against individual freedom.
The state of nature is much founded on biblical concepts. From the biblical perspectives, some people (such as Moses and David) dominated others since God placed them in positions of power. Similar to the biblical teachings, people have evolved some having power or dominance over the rest due to the legal codes imposed on them. Throughout the history of humankind, people have believed that societies need to be governed by moral laws ascribed to them by their Creator. Accordingly, the state of nature is highly compatible with the biblical teachings as the humanity related governance has since time immemorial been based on what the people believed to the laws of their Creator. Similar to the people accorded authority over others in the Bible, the state of nature gives power to leaders who govern the societies.

Do We Overemphasize the Role of Culture in the Behavior ofRa.docx
Do We Overemphasize the Role of Culture in the Behavior of
Racial/Ethnic Minorities? Evidence of a Cultural (Mis)Attribution Bias in
American Psychology

Although culture influences all human beings, there is an assumption in American psychol-
ogy that culture matters more for members of certain groups. This article identifies and
provides evidence of the cultural (mis)attribution bias: a tendency to overemphasize the role
of culture in the behavior of racial/ethnic minorities, and to underemphasize it in the behavior of
Whites. Two studies investigated the presence of this bias with an examination of a decade of
peer reviewed research conducted in the United States (N � 434 articles), and an experiment
and a survey with psychology professors in the United States (N � 361 psychologists).
Archival analyses revealed differences in the composition of samples used in studies exam-
ining cultural or noncultural psychological phenomena. We also find evidence to suggest that
psychologists in the United States favor cultural explanations over psychological explana-
tions when considering the behavior and cognition of racial/ethnic minorities, whereas the
opposite pattern emerged in reference to Whites. The scientific ramifications of this phe-
nomenon, as well as alternatives to overcome it, are discussed in detail.
Keywords: bias, culture, ethnicity, race, cultural (mis)attribution bias
Supplemental materials: http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/amp0000099.supp
The crucial role of culture in shaping human behavior and
cognition has received increased attention in the last decade
(A. B. Cohen, 2009; Kitayama & Uskul, 2011). However,
despite widespread agreement about the psychological sig-
nificance of culture, several authors have argued that Amer-
ican psychology1 frequently associates culture with racial/
ethnic minorities more than Whites (Betancourt & López,
1993). This claim, to our knowledge, has yet to be tested
through an examination of the research literature or an
assessment of the opinion and assumptions of research
psychologists. In this article, we provide evidence of a
cultural (mis)attribution bias in American psychology: the
tendency to see racial/ethnic minorities as members of a
group whose traits, beliefs, and behaviors are shaped pri-
marily by culture, and to perceive the White racial/ethnic
majority as autonomous and independent actors who are
instead largely influenced by psychological processes. Be-
cause this bias rests on assumptions about human behavior
that are not supported by evidence and may lead to differ-
ential treatment of members of specific social groups, it
constrains psychologists’ explanations of behavior and cog-
nition. In two studies, we investigated the presence of this
bias in psychological research in the United States using
archival, experimental, and correlational methods.

Do you agree or disagree with the labeling of records that contain.docx
Do you agree or disagree with the labeling of records that contain explicit lyrics? Do you think that any form of censorship is always a bad and dangerous thing?
The compact disk seems to be destined to the same fate of the vinyl record: almost complete extinction. Will the world’s technology become completely wireless/virtual?
If so, based on what we have seen in the 1990s and 2000s, what consequences will this have on the quality of music?
How do you see music developing in the coming decade of the 2020s?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
