Download or read book Salt Sugar Fat written by Michael Moss and published by Signal. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter at The New York Times comes the troubling story of the rise of the processed food industry -- and how it used salt, sugar, and fat to addict us. Salt Sugar Fat is a journey into the highly secretive world of the processed food giants, and the story of how they have deployed these three essential ingredients, over the past five decades, to dominate the North American diet. This is an eye-opening book that demonstrates how the makers of these foods have chosen, time and again, to double down on their efforts to increase consumption and profits, gambling that consumers and regulators would never figure them out. With meticulous original reporting, access to confidential files and memos, and numerous sources from deep inside the industry, it shows how these companies have pushed ahead, despite their own misgivings (never aired publicly). Salt Sugar Fat is the story of how we got here, and it will hold the food giants accountable for the social costs that keep climbing even as some of the industry's own say, "Enough already."

Download or read book The Death of Francis Bacon written by Max Porter and published by Strange Light. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madrid. Unfinished. Man dying. A great painter lies on his deathbed, synapses firing, writhing and reveling in pleasure and pain as a lifetime of chaotic and grotesque sense memories wash over and envelop him. In this bold and brilliant short work of experimental fiction by the author of Grief Is the Thing with Feathers and Lanny, Max Porter inhabits Francis Bacon in his final moments, translating into seven extraordinary written pictures the explosive final workings of the artist's mind. Writing as painting rather than about painting, Porter lets the images he conjures speak for themselves as they take their revenge on the subject who wielded them in life. The result is more than a biography: The Death of Francis Bacon is a physical, emotional, historical, sexual, and political bombardment--the measure of a man creative and compromised, erotic and masochistic, inexplicable and inspired.

Book excerpt: What if you discovered a blueprint that could grow your brand’s reputation and loyalty, dramatically reduce customer service issues, produce content and technology, and cement a powerful, lasting relationship between you and your customers?

People Powered helps C-suite leaders, founders, marketers, customer advocates, and community leaders gain a competitive advantage by answering the following questions: What is the key value proposition of building a community? What kind of community do we need and how do we build and integrate it into our organization?

How do we develop authentic, productive relationships with community members both online and in person? How do we get departmental buy-in, hire effectively, and create consistent, reliable community engagement skills in our organization? What are the strategic and tactical pitfalls and roadblocks we need to avoid? How do we make sure that our community continues to grow with us—and more importantly, how do we make sure that we continue to grow with them? People Powered pulls together over 20 years of pragmatic experience into a clear, simple methodology and blueprint to not just answer these questions, but deliver results. Don’t get left behind—become an industry trailblazer and ensure your company’s longevity by tapping into the most dynamic force both outside and inside your organization: the people.
Download or read book Rex Curry s DARWIN AWARDS Joseph Stalin Mao Zedong Adolf Hitler Pol Pot Kim Il sung more written by Lin Xun and published by No Pledge Publishing. This book was released on with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwin Awards commemorate those who perish through some "astonishing misapplications of judgment." Special recognition goes to the work of Joseph Stalin, V.I. Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Mao Zedong, Kim Il-sung, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh, Karl Marx, Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Adolf Hitler, and their ilk. What were the historical origins of their notorious multi-year prize-winning death races? The old roots are diverse and even include the USA. From 1892 through 1942, the Nazi salute was performed by public officials in America. Where are the old photographs and films of the American Nazi salute performed by federal, state, county, and local officials? Those photos and films are rare because people don't want to know the truth about the globe’s scary past. Public officials in the USA who preceded the German socialist (Hitler) and the Italian socialist (Mussolini) were sources for the stiff-armed salute (and robotic chanting) in those countries and other foreign countries. The "ancient Roman salute" myth originated from the city of Rome in the state of New York (not Italy), Francis Bellamy's hometown. Later, Mussolini presented a strange gift to the city of Rome, NY: a statue of two human male infants suckling on a female wolf. That statue remains on display in Rome, NY. Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts helped spread the Nazi salute and the swastika to Germany and elsewhere. The author is Supermodel and Superwriter Lin Xun and she joins the Dead Writers Club to expose many amazing discoveries, including: (1) Congress and the Flag Code confirm that the military salute was the origin of the Nazi salute. (2) The USA's Pledge of Allegiance inspired Nazi rituals. (3) Public schools spread Nazi behavior. (4) Swastikas represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" under Hitler. They are eye-popping revelations that are undisputed by the New York Times • The Washington Post • Los Angeles Times • San Francisco Chronicle • Tampa Bay Times • Chicago Tribune • Newsday • The New York Times Book Review • Tampa Tribune • Library Journal • Publishers Weekly • Saint Petersburg Times • History Journal • Scholar's Weekly Because she speaks truth to power with her ground-breaking revelations, Lin Xun has been subjected to harassment (including risque images of her posted on the internet). She doesn't care! In this book, Lin spanks history's bottom, leaving red hand prints. Hop in Lin's pink Cadillac and take a ride to the land inside of your mind. Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior originated from the USA's Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, created by Francis Bellamy, an American socialist. The author Lin Xun searches for old photos and film footage of the early Pledge of Allegiance showing the origin of the USA's notorious stiff-armed salute. Many of those artifacts have been found among Dr. Rex Curry's historical archival work. Curry's discoveries are changing the history books. Please send any images or inquiries to the email address of the publisher mentioned in the book. Each book is personally handled, wrapped, and mailed by Lin Xun IN THE NUDE! Or by the publisher, depending on who's available. This empowering book gives everyone a voice to transform his community. To everyone who threw up on Hitler's election night, who sobbed on the bathroom floor at Stalin's power grab, who dry heaved trying to imagine how to tell the children what had happened under Mao, who couldn’t stop physically shaking due to the Kim thugs, who felt the horror of what was to come under all socialism, I say this: WE KNEW. WE KNEW. WE KNEW. “There is rumor of a Pulitzer Prize for exposing the Pledge of Allegiance as the origin of Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior; and the swastika as alphabetical ‘S’ letter shaped symbolism for ‘socialist.’ Hooray!” - Ward Toolen, Stop The Pledge (STP) Foundation. "The symbol presently known as Lin Xun wrote a game-changer with this book." – Francis Hannah Cruz

Download or read book Radical Belonging written by Lindo Bacon and published by BenBella Books. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Belonging has been a formative struggle for me. Like most people with marginalized identities, my experience has taught me that it's hard to be yourself and feel like you belong in a culture that is hostile to your existence. That's why my body of work as a scientist, author, professor, speaker, and advocate for body liberation always comes back to the impact of belonging or not belonging. Radical Belonging is my manifesto, helping us heal from the individual and collective trauma of injustice and support our transition from a culture of othering to one of belonging." —Lindo Bacon Too many of us feel alienated from our bodies. This isn't your personal failing; it means that our culture is failing you. We are in the midst of a cultural moment. #MeToo. #BlackLivesMatter. #TransIsBeautiful. #AbleismExists. #EffYourBeautyStandards. Those of us who don't fit into the "mythical norm" (white, male, cisgender, able-bodied, slender, Christian, etc.)—which is to say, most of us—are demanding our basic right: To know that who we are matters. To belong. Being "othered" and the body shame it spurs is not "just" a feeling. Being erased and devalued impacts our ability to regulate our emotions, our relationships with others, our health and longevity, our finances, our ability to realize dreams, and whether we will be accepted, loved, or even safe. Radical Belonging is not a simple self-love treatise. Focusing only on self-love ignores the important fact that we have negative experiences because our culture has targeted certain bodies and people for abuse or alienation. For marginalized people, a focus on self-love can be a spoonful of sugar that makes the oppression go down. This groundbreaking book goes further, helping us to manage the challenges that stem from oppression and moving beyond self-love and into belonging. With Lindo Bacon's signature blend of science and storytelling, Radical Belonging addresses the political, sociological, psychological and biological underpinnings of your experiences, helping you understand that the alienation and pain you are experiencing is not personal, but human. The problem is in injustice, not you as an individual. So many of us feel wounded by a culture that has alienated us from our bodies and divided us from each other. Radical Belonging provides strategies to reckon with the trauma of injustice; reclaim yourself, body and soul; and rewire your nervous system to better cope within an unjust world. It also provides strategies to help us all provide refuge for one another and create a culture of equity and empathy, one that respects, includes, and benefits from all its diverse peoples. Whether you are transgender, queer, Black, Indigenous or a Person of Color, disabled, old, or fat—or your more closely resemble the "mythical norm"—Radical Belonging is your guidebook for creating a world where all bodies are valued and all of us belong—and for coping with this one, until we make that new world a reality.

Download or read book HM Revenue and Customs written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the following issues: claiming the additional tax allowances available to older people; administering tax for older people; and providing cost-effective support for older people. Older people are a significant and growing group for HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), making up 18 per cent of taxpayers, with 5.6 million liable for income tax. Older people are poorly served by the Department. Errors occur because people's tax affairs often become more complicated when they reach pension age, and HMRC's systems do not cope well with their multiple sources of income. For example, an estimated 1.5 million older people have overpaid tax by £250 million because of discrepancies between the Department's records and those of their employers and pension providers. Older people may also be paying too much tax because they do not claim additional tax allowances available. Some 2.4 million older people have also overpaid around £200 million in tax because they did not have their savings income paid gross of tax. HMRC should devise simpler systems so that older people can have peace of mind about their tax affairs and it should have a more coherent plan for meeting the needs of older people efficiently and effectively. It costs the Department twice as much on average to deal with an enquiry from an older person compared to those from other taxpayers because their enquiries tend to be more complicated. HMRC should safeguard opportunities for face-to-face contact which older people often prefer.

Download or read book Improving Corporate Functions Using Shared Services written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corporate services provide vital support to the delivery of effective and efficient public services. They include activities such as finance and accounting, human resources, procurement, information technology, facilities management and estates management. Shared services are designed to improve efficiency and service quality by combining such activities across different parts of an organisation, or across separate organisations. The Cabinet Office has estimated the cost of finance and human resources functions across government as £7 billion a year. It believes there is scope to save in the order of £1.4 billion annually through the use of shared services. This report examines the Cabinet Office's efforts to improve corporate functions using shared services, as well as the impact of two of the more established public sector shared services in the NHS and the Prison Service. NHS Shared Business Services is a joint venture between the Department of Health and Xansa PLC selling procurement, finance and accounting services to 89 NHS organisations out of a total of 416 potentially eligible NHS bodies. It is not yet making a profit and has paid no dividend to either the Department of Health or Xansa. It needs to attract a further 22 customers simply to break even, and approximately 180 more customers to deliver its forecast savings to the taxpayer of £250 million by 2014-15. HM Prison Service's Shared Services Centre provides finance, procurement and human resources services to all 128 Prison establishments, and the system is now working well.
