This book was released on 1995 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Honourable Minister of Health requested advice on how to establish principles to assist in distinguishing essential from non-essential health care services. Representatives from national and provincial seniors' organizations and from provincial councils attended a one-day workshop organized by the Council to present their views on the principles that should underlie priority-setting in health care. Because seniors remember Canada prior to the development of its public health system, they have an important and unique role to play in any discussions regarding health care reform. NACA's position on determining health care priorities is informed by the views that seniors expressed at the workshop; throughout this report, views expressed at the workshop are quoted to highlight major points. As well, this report benefited substantially from the analyses of health economists and ethicists.

Book excerpt: This report presents the six main categories of life-course events and experiences that have the greatest impact on women's senior years. It first looks at the effect of these experiences on women who were born during the first quarter of this century. Based on information about how these experiences are changing, the report then speculates on how the situation of future cohorts of senior women may differ. These experiences include family life, health, living arrangements, education, employment and economic security. The report also includes a subjective dimension illustrating how women see the impact of experiences on their lives, thanks to the informal consultations carried out by Council members. Recommendations addressed to individual women, society in general, governments, community agencies, educational institutions, employers and researchers conclude the paper.

Download or read book Silent Stars written by Jeanine Basinger and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2012-10-17 with total page 799 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of America's most renowned film scholars: a revelatory, perceptive, and highly readable look at the greatest silent film stars -- not those few who are fully appreciated and understood, like Chaplin, Keaton, Gish, and Garbo, but those who have been misperceived, unfairly dismissed, or forgotten. Here is Valentino, "the Sheik," who was hardly the effeminate lounge lizard he's been branded as; Mary Pickford, who couldn't have been further from the adorable little creature with golden ringlets that was her film persona; Marion Davies, unfairly pilloried in Citizen Kane; the original "Phantom" and "Hunchback," Lon Chaney; the beautiful Talmadge sisters, Norma and Constance. Here are the great divas, Pola Negri and Gloria Swanson; the great flappers, Colleen Moore and Clara Bow; the great cowboys, William S. Hart and Tom Mix; and the great lover, John Gilbert. Here, too, is the quintessential slapstick comedienne, Mabel Normand, with her Keystone Kops; the quintessential all-American hero, Douglas Fairbanks; and, of course, the quintessential all-American dog, Rin-Tin-Tin. This is the first book to anatomize the major silent players, reconstruct their careers, and give us a sense of what those films, those stars, and that Hollywood were all about. An absolutely essential text for anyone seriously interested in movies, and, with more than three hundred photographs, as much a treat to look at as it is to read.

Download or read book Fruit Processing written by D. Arthey and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fruit and fruit products, in all their many varieties and variations, are major world commodities and part of the economic life blood of many countries, particularly in the developing world. The perception of the healthy nature of fruit is a major reason for its increased consumption in the developed world, and many consumers today find a wider selection of fruit varieties, available at all times of the year, than ever before. This volume, however, is not so much concerned with fresh fruit as those principal areas of processing to which it may be subjected. Fruit processing arose as a means of utilising a short-lived product and preserving its essential nutritional qualities as far as possible. A chapter on the nutritional aspects of fruit is included in this work to reflect the importance of this topic to most consumers. After a general introduction, the chapter on fruit storage is the only contribution which deals with a process from which fruit emerges in essentially the same physical condition. Beyond that the book sets out to cover most of the major areas in which fruit may be processed into forms which bear varying semblances to the original raw material.
