  • Simple Vinaigrette
    Simple Vinaigrette The usual ratio is 1 part vinegar to 3 parts oil, but I prefer 1 part vinegar to 2 parts oil. The important thing is to play around until you find your favorite ratio. • 1 large spoon Red Wine Vinegar • Any red wine vinegar will do, but if you can find unpasteurized red wine vinegar, it will have more flavor • Plus, since it contains the mother, you can use it to make your own vinegar. Just add wine (I use red wine, whatever remnants we have) and let is sit a few months. Taste it periodically. • Sherry Wine Vinegar is also exceptionally good • 2 large spoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil • When you buy olive oil, check to see if there is a harvest date. Olive oil is good for you. You get the most nutritional value in the year after harvest *** Put a little salt in a bowl I recommend unrefined coarse grey salt because it has a high mineral content, but any salt will do; you can also add pepper Add 1 large spoon Red Wine Vinegar Plus a little Dijon mustard (Maille, Amora, Edmond Fallot, Grey Poupon) Stir it and let sit a few minutes Optional, classic additions, to add to the vinegar, salt, mustard: • Garlic: • Either as a clove you let sit in vinegar for gentle flavor • Or pounded to a paste in mortar/grated in a suribachi for a stronger flavor • You can also mince it or microplane it • Shallot • Sliced thinly; if your shallot is very large, use a quarter of half The vinegar will soften the garlic and shallot flavor; you can use either alone/or both garlic and shallot together I usually let this sit 5 or so minutes, while I prepare something else.

  • Diet Manual for Long-Term Care Residents 2014 Revision
    1 Diet Manual for Long-Term Care Residents 2014 Revision The Office of Health Care Quality is pleased to release the latest revision of the Diet Manual for Long-Term Care Residents. This manual is a premier publication—serving as a resource for providers, health care facilities, caregivers and families across the nation. In long-term care facilities, meeting nutritional requirements is not as easy as it sounds. It is important to provide a wide variety of food choices that satisfy each resident’s physical, ethnic, cultural, and social needs and preferences. These considerations could last for months or even years. Effective nutritional planning, as well as service of attractive, tasty, well-prepared food can greatly enhance the quality of life for long-term care residents. The Diet Manual for Long Term Care Residents was conceived and developed to provide guidance and assistance to nursing home personnel. It has also been used successfully in community health programs, chronic rehabilitation, and assisted living programs. It serves as a guide in prescribing diets, an aid in planning regular and therapeutic diet menus, and as a reference for developing recipes and preparing diets. The publication is not intended to be a nutrition-care manual or a substitute for individualized judgment of a qualified professional. Also included, is an appendix that contains valuable information to assess residents’ nutritional status. On behalf of the entire OHCQ agency, I would like to thank the nutrition experts who volunteered countless hours to produce this valuable tool. We also appreciate Beth Bremner and Cheryl Cook for typing the manual.

  • 1. Introduction
    1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to Unilever Sri Lanka Unilever's association with the country, Ceylon at the time, began in the early 1900s with brands such as Sunlight, Lux and Pears Rose being available for sale in the local market. In 1927 imports and distribution was organised with the appointment of a sole agent Sankar Aiyars. In 1938, with the sales of Sunlight reaching 2000 tons and Lux reaching 200 tons Lever Brothers Ceylon Limited was incorporated. This was followed with the establishment of a soap factory in Grandpass Colombo in April 1940. Bakery fats and Margarine manufacture commenced in 1941 and in 1958 the company established its own selling and distribution organisation (Sankalana, 2009). Over the years the organisation expanded and the business activities of Unilever were managed through Lever Brothers Ceylon Limited, Lipton, Brooke Bond, Ceytea, Lever Aqua Products and Premier Foods. The organisation was restructured in 1991 to bring all legal entities under the umbrella of Unilever Ceylon. Since then the business was managed by two divisions namely Consumer Division and Tea Division. Since 1996, the consolidated business entity is known as Unilever Sri Lanka Limited (USL) with its head office and main food and home and personal care (HPC) factory in Grandpass, Colombo. This plant manufactures a large range of fast moving consumer goods such as toilet soaps, hard soaps, washing powders, shampoos, toothpaste and margarine. This site employs around 1270 permanent employees. Non soap detergent (NSD) plant, hard soap packing plant and the distribution centre are located at the Lindel industrial site in Sapugaskanda, about 15 km away from the Grandpass office.

    Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Chair Ann Anagnost Stevan Harrell Danny Hoffman Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology ©Copyright 2018 Darren T. Byler University of Washington Abstract Spirit Breaking: Uyghur Dispossession, Culture Work and Terror Capitalism in a Chinese Global City Darren T. Byler Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sasha Su-Ling Welland, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies This study argues that Uyghurs, a Turkic-Muslim group in contemporary Northwest China, and the city of Ürümchi have become the object of what the study names “terror capitalism.” This argument is supported by evidence of both the way state-directed economic investment and security infrastructures (pass-book systems, webs of technological surveillance, urban cleansing processes and mass internment camps) have shaped self-representation among Uyghur migrants and Han settlers in the city. It analyzes these human engineering and urban planning projects and the way their effects are contested in new media, film, television, photography and literature. It finds that this form of capitalist production utilizes the discourse of terror to justify state investment in a wide array of policing and social engineering systems that employs millions of state security workers. The project also presents a theoretical model for understanding how Uyghurs use cultural production to both build and refuse the development of this new economic formation and accompanying forms of gendered, ethno-racial violence.
