RELIGIOUS DIETARY RESTRICTIONS In order to be accomodating for diverse religions as a general rule, avoid any pork products (e.g. ham, bacon, pork, prosciutto) and avoid foods with alcohol as an ingredient.

It is the fifth of the Romance languages in terms of number of speakers. It is spoken as a first language by somewhere around 24 to 26 million people, and enjoys official status in Romania, Moldova and the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina (Serbia). The official form of the Moldovan language in the Republic of Moldova is identical to the official form of Romanian save for a minor rule in spelling. Romanian is also an official or administrative language in various communities and organisations (such as the Latin Union and the European Union – the latter as of 2007). It is a melodious language that has basically the same sounds as English with a few exceptions. These entered the language because of the slavic influence and of many borrowing made from the neighboring languages. It uses the Latin alphabet which makes it easy to spell and read.

Language Group Specific Informational Reports
Rhode Island College M.Ed. In TESL Program Language Group Specific Informational Reports Produced by Graduate Students in the M.Ed. In TESL Program In the Feinstein School of Education and Human Development Language Group: Romanian Author: Jean Civil Program Contact Person: Nancy Cloud ([email protected]) RHODE ISLAND COLLEGE TESL 539-01: ROMANIAN LANGUAGE Student: Jean Ocelin Civil Prof: Nancy Cloud Spring 2010 Introduction Thousands of languages, dialects, creoles and pidgins are spoken worldwide. Some people, endowed by either an integrative or extrinsic motivation, want to be bilingual, trilingual or multilingual. So, the interlanguage interference becomes unavoidable. Those bilingual individuals are omnipresent in the State of Rhode Island. As prospective ESL teachers, our job requirement is to help them to achieve English proficiency. Knowing the interference problems attributable to their native language is the sine qua none pre- condition to helping them. However, you may have trouble understanding Romanian native speakers due to communication barriers here in the State of Rhode Island. The nature of our research is to use a Contrastive Analysis Approach to the Romanian language, so we can inquire about their predicted errors. In the following PowerPoint presentation, we will put emphasis specifically on phonology, grammar, communication style, and semantic problems. Romanian History 1. Before 106 AD, the Dacians lived in Romanian territory. They spoke Thracian tongue. 2. 106 AD, the defeat of the Dacians, (an indo-European people), led to a period of intense Romanization. A vulgar Latin became the language of commerce and administration. Thracian and Latin combined gave birth to Romanian Language. 3.

Polish Minor Revised: 02/2020
Polish Minor www.Slavic.Pitt.edu/Undergraduate/Polish Revised: 02/2020 The Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures offers a major in Russian and minors in Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian (BCS), Polish, and Slovak Studies. During the fall and spring terms, the department offers courses in Russian, BCS, Polish, Slovak, and Ukrainian. These languages, as well as Bulgarian and Czech, are also taught in the Summer Language Institute (SLI) at Pitt. Offered in June, July, and the first part of August, the SLI provides intensive courses that cover an entire year of study at the first- through fourth-year levels of Russian language, and the first-year—and typically the second-and possibly the third-year-levels of other Slavic languages. There are also study abroad courses available at the SLI in which students spend half of the program in Pittsburgh, and the other half in Russia, Montenegro, Poland, Slovakia, or the Czech Republic. For prospective majors, the SLI affords the opportunity to rapidly increase language proficiency in order to qualify for advanced courses, study abroad programs, or research opportunities. Prospective majors in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures include: students who are primarily interested in language or literature, students who wish to enhance their career opportunities in a unique way, students who have an interest in the politics and culture of Russia and Central Europe, and students with a desire to explore their ethnic heritage. For students interested in interdisciplinary area studies, the Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies (REES) certificate, offered through the University Center for International Studies (UCIS), is an attractive complement to a major or minor in the Slavic department.

Know Dieting: Risks and Reasons to Stop
k"#w & ieting, -isks and -easons to 2top Dieting: Any attempts in the name of weight loss, “healthy eating” or body sculpting to deny your body of the essential, well-balanced nutrients and calories it needs to function to its fullest capacity. The Dieting Mindset: When dissatisfaction with your natural body shape or size leads to a decision to actively change your physical body weight or shape. Dieting has become a national pastime, especially for women. ∗ Americans spend more than $40 billion dollars a year on dieting and diet-related products. That’s roughly equivalent to the amount the U.S. Federal Government spends on education each year. ∗ It is estimated that 40-50% of American women are trying to lose weight at any point in time. ∗ One recent study revealed that 91% of women on a college campus had dieted. 22% dieted “often” or “always.” (Kurth et al., 1995). ∗ Researchers estimate that 40-60% of high school girls are on diets (Sardula et al., 1993; Rosen & Gross, 1987). ∗ Another study found that 46% of 9-11 year olds are sometimes or very often on diets (Gustafson-Larson & Terry, 1992). ∗ And, another researcher discovered that 42% of 1st-3rd grade girls surveyed reported wanting to be thinner (Collins, 1991). The Big Deal About Dieting: What You Should Know ∗ Dieting rarely works. 95% of all dieters regain their lost weight and more within 1 to 5 years. ∗ Dieting can be dangerous: ! “Yo-yo” dieting (repetitive cycles of gaining, losing, & regaining weight) has been shown to have negative health effects, including increased risk of heart disease, long-lasting negative impacts on metabolism, etc.

Nutrition and Diet
Nutrition and Diet © 2010 by Intellectual Reserve, Inc. All right reserved United States of America Published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Salt Lake City, Utah Nutrition and Diet The Word of Wisdom contains the Lord’s outline of the kinds of food that provide good nutrition. Balanced nutrition (1) includes drinking plenty of clean water and regularly eating foods from each of six food groups: grains, vegetables, fruits, milk products, meat and beans, and oils. These foods contain six kinds of nutrients: proteins (2), carbohydrates (3), fats (4), minerals (5), vitamins (6), and water (8). A person should regularly eat or drink enough of all of these nutrients to grow and remain healthy. For infant nutrition (8), mother’s milk itself provides an ideal balance of nutrients, with the gradual introduction of solid foods after four to six months of age. If a variety from all food groups is eaten regularly, it is not usually necessary to take supplements (9). Even carefully chosen vegetarian (10) diets that include dairy products or eggs can be quite sufficient. But if little or no animal products are eaten, then grains must be eaten with legumes (beans, peas, peanuts, and lentils), nuts, and seeds to provide balanced protein. Food and drink must also be clean and free from disease-causing germs (bacteria, viruses, and parasites) to be healthy. Purified water (10) (potable water) is prepared by removing dirt from the water and treating the water to remove or kill germs. In some areas, the government purifies water that is delivered through secured plumbing; this water is safe to use directly from the faucet for food and drink.

Arab Cultural Awareness: 58 Factsheets
TRADOC DCSINT HANDBOOK NO. 2 ARAB CULTURAL AWARENESS: 58 FACTSHEETS OFFICE OF THE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF FOR INTELLIGENCE US ARMY TRAINING AND DOCTRINE COMMAND FT. LEAVENWORTH, KANSAS JANUARY 2006 PURPOSE This handbook is designed to specifically provide the trainer a ‘hip pocket training’ resource. It is intended for informal squad or small group instruction. The goal is to provide soldiers with a basic overview of Arab culture. It must be emphasized that there is no “one” Arab culture or society. The Arab world is full of rich and diverse communities, groups and cultures. Differences exist not only among countries, but within countries as well. Caveat: It is impossible to talk about groups of people without generalizing. It then follows that it is hard to talk about the culture of a group without generalizing. This handbook attempts to be as accurate and specific as possible, but inevitably contains such generalizations. Treat these generalizations with caution and wariness. They do provide insight into a culture, but the accuracy and usefulness will depend on the context and specific circumstances. Comments or Suggestions: Please forward all comments, suggestions or questions to: ADCINT-Threats, 700 Scott Ave, Ft. Leavenworth, KS 66027 or email [email protected] or phone 913.684.7920/DSN 552-7920. ii WHERE IS THE ARAB WORLD? • The Arab world stretches from Morocco across Northern Africa to the Persian Gulf. The Arab world is more or less equal to the area known as the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Although this excludes Somalia, Djibouti, and the Comoros Islands which are part of the Arab world.

Diets don’t work. If they do, they last for a few weeks before you realise that you can’t sustain the amount of food you are eating or they are so restricted that you throw the towel in. What we are aiming for in the 28 days is to: l Educate you on the types of foods that you can eat on a regular basis l Lose body fat and improve body shape l Provide you with healthy, tasty recipes that you can eat and enjoy l Give you a feeling of how the body should feel. Not tired, achy, bloated, flabby l Show you how to integrate exercise into your lifestyle which is short and sustainable The major benefits of this eating plan are that you get to eatREAL food. There is no more point systems, calorie counting or weighing of food. You may have tried many diets or eating plans previously. However, if you have found you have regained the weight or still feel tired and bloated, then the diet didn’t work. You have probably heard us say before “Abs are made in the kitchen” or “You can’t out train a bad diet”.
