  • T R a D I T I O N a L French Roaster
    TRADITIONAL FRENCH ROASTER MAISON FOUNDED IN 1892 | 1 DEAR COFFEE LOVER, DEAR CLIENT, DEAR PARTNER, Founded in Paris in 1892, MAISON RICHARD is, first and foremost, a wonderful family story that was first told by my paternal grandfather, and is still being told today, three generations later. The love of the coffee bean took root in the heart of our family’s traditional French-style coffee roasting business, even more because it was my maternal grandfather’s trade too. The collector posters, jute bags and coffee mills have been the texture of our world since childhood. From the ongoing search for grands crus from subtle or secret soils to the creation of new proprietary blends, CAFÉS RICHARD has been making its mark in the art of coffee since the early 50s. The Maison’s expertise begins right from the meticulous selection of the beans, which will later reveal their flavors during the delicate alchemy of roasting. Our expertise was then extended to teas, herbal teas and chocolate in the same spirit of offering quality beverages. Concocting these exclusive blends has literally carried us away on a creative wave. ENJOY the CAFÉS RICHARD experience... ANNE RICHARD BELLANGER, Managing Director of CAFÉS RICHARD Arnaud, Anne & their father Pierre Richard CAFÉS RICHARD is a traditional French- style coffee roaster linked to the French gastronomy. Inspiring the confidence of its 36,000 CLIENTS through premium quality and service, Cafés Richard firmly holds onto its position as LEADER IN FRANCE’S HORECA market for hot beverages solutions and now reaches coffee lovers around the world through an INTERNATIONAL NETWORK of selected distributors.

  • Loses at the Core of the Self and the Merits of “Portable Families” 1
    International Journal of Brief Therapy and Family Science 2011, Vol. 1, No.1, 57-67 <Invited Paper> LOSES AT THE CORE OF THE SELF AND THE MERITS OF “PORTABLE FAMILIES” 1 Carlos E. Sluzki1) 1) Department of Global and Community Health, George Mason University ABSTRACT. The treatment of a patient who was referred due to hallucinations reveals a world of “magic realism” that is far from infrequent in elderly people with a small and dwindling social network –especially if coming from cultures where the boundaries between the inner and the outer world world are fuzzy. Respecting these traits allow for the development of treatment approaches that can evolve satisfactorily without disrupting the patient’s inscription in this dual world. KEY WORDS: self boundaries, family, hallucinations, culture Introduction after his death, reeling with the vacuum of Our beloved talking cat, an agile acrobat his loss, I still quasi-hallucinate him: I have and tender social being who would jump the sense every now and again that I see his onto my desk whenever I was there and shadow outside my studio window wanting to managed to create a space to lie down be allowed into the house after one of his –pushing away whatever paper, pen or escapades; or I experience him rushing by stapler was in his way and purr until falling me in or out when I enter the house.

  • Salicylate Food and Product Shopping Lists Last Updated: January 31 2021
    p. 1 Salicylate Food and Product Shopping Lists Last Updated: January 31 2021 Formatted for shopping convenience from The Low-Sal Life Go to the website at https://low-sal-life.com/food-product-lists#products for more data on each item, the year and sources for that data, and their complete and awesome list of citations, studies and research: “There have been five major studies testing salicylates in food over the last forty years. I will categorize food by the highest study's levels which includes Free + Bound Salicylic Acid levels, but also include all the historical results. Please take caution while trying new foods. Also note, that the food industry has changed and scientific methods improved in 40 years which may be a few reasons why salicylate levels have changed. Malakar et al. reports all levels with free plus bound salicylic acid, not just free like Swain et al. 1985. This may explain why levels are higher than before. Kęszycka also reports both free and bound, but provides the levels separately. This is why white rice is no longer in the negligible list - it has a low level when including bound salicylic acid. While it's not known how the body metabolizes bound salicylates, it's good to know what the full potential is. The best way to use this list is to search for the food item with your browser search - look for ALL the mentions. For example, figs are listed in three categories depending on how they are preserved. Also, some foods were not included in the five research articles, so I've included items like the St.

  • Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character
    Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Amber Boardman A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Art and Design Faculty of Art and Design October 2018 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname Boardman Given Name Amber Degree PhD Faculty Art and Design School Art and Design Thesis Title Laughing at Our Inadequacies: Contemporary Cartoonish Painting, Internet Culture and the Tragicomic Character Abstract This practice-based project examines ‘cartoonish painting’, an emerging trend of contemporary figurative painting which draws on links between cartoons, humour, narrative, character and bodily transformation. In my practice, cartoonish painting depicts and comments on the endless desire to transform body and self as promoted by Internet culture and social media. This thesis argues that the social media driven desire for self-improvement—bodily alteration and transformations of the self—creates a tragicomic effect that unfolds through the devices of narrative and character. I examine the still influential, Romantic theory of character developed by William James. James articulated well-rounded characters evolve over time through a series of identifications with external others. This thesis proposes that James’s formulations about character retain currency, as people identify with depictions of idealised bodies, high-performing and socially sanctioned selves disseminated through the Internet. This thesis argues, however, that this aspirational selfhood and identifying with idealised others creates feelings of inadequacy. The ideology of a striving, perfected self in search of the ‘American Dream’ will be analysed through Henri Bergson’s theory of the comic. Bergson argued that the failure of machine-like pursuits uncontrolled by consciousness can be manifested through comic depictions of the human body.
