  • An Introduction to BETRAYAL
    An Introduction to BETRAYAL There are times in the life of any individual or organization when they are challenged by events entirely beyond their control. One such event happened in the life of our Goodwill that challenged us to our very core. That event was the fraud committed by Carol Braun. We take pride in our corporate values and our integrity. We were exposed and vulnerable. The real mark of an organization's strength is its capacity to weather the most difficult storms. I believe that "Betrayal" is a testament to the strength and integrity of our Goodwill. It is a living testament to our capacity to learn from our hardships and mistakes. The book has found its way to every corner of America and has served to comfort and inform others who have faced similar circumstances. This book is dedicated to the men and women of Goodwill, our "People". We are stronger, more resilient and more compassionate as a result of this experience. We hope that Betrayal will, in some small way, ease any personal or professional challenges the reader may face and we stand ready to help.

  • The Game of Love CHANGING the RULES CHANGES
    The Game of Love CHANGING THE RULES CHANGES EVERYTHING! © By Kevin B. Rice INTRODUCTION Ah, the game of love! You know – falling head over heels, the pursuit, the chance to win someone over, and all those feelings of butterflies in the stomach! Where did all of this begin? Why is it such a part of our lives? And why does suffering so often follow? Once I became interested in the topic of love and romance I began to research it. It seems so much a part of everyone’s life at one time or another that I figured it had to be something primal – behavior imprinted on the human psyche since the beginning of time. But I couldn’t have been more wrong. I discovered, much to my surprise, that “courtly love,” or modern day’s idea of “romantic love,” was invented by humans, not by God. The first time in recorded history where courtly love, (as it is now known,) appeared was with Guilaume IX, the Count of Poitiers and Duke of Aquitaine in the 11th century when he wrote eleven poems that set forth the ideology of courtly love. It was not until the appearance of Eleanor of Aquitaine when she made the courts of her two daughters’ important centers where this courtly poetry could be read. One chaplain, Andreas Cappellanus at Marie’s court, penned a three book treatise called The Art of Courtly Love. In it, Capellanus wrote several rules setting forth how courtly love was to be played out. However, courtly love was marginalized for centuries because France became a monarchy and the feudal order reigned.

  • The Impact of Cartoon Characters and Front-Of-Package (FOP) Nutrition Information on Parental Perceptions of Children’S Food
    The Impact of Cartoon Characters and Front-of-Package (FOP) Nutrition Information on Parental Perceptions of Children’s Food Products by Wiworn Sae Yang A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Health Studies & Gerontology Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Wiworn Sae Yang 2012 AUTHOR’S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT Childhood obesity is a major public health issue. Canada has one of the highest childhood obesity rates in the world. Food advertising and marketing have contributed to the rapid rise in childhood obesity. High energy and low nutrient foods have been promoted directly to children through attractive imagery on packages, including the use of popular cartoon characters. Children’s food packaging also features a range of nutrition information targeted at parents, including nutrition claims; however, there is relatively little research on the impact of these nutrition claims and the extent to which they may interact with child-friendly imagery to influence parents’ perception of food quality. The current study used a 2 x 2 experimental design to examine the effect of four front-of-package (FOP) nutrition information and four cartoon characters on parental perceptions of children’s food products. Participants consisted of 897 parents recruited across Canada through GMI, a market research company. Participants were over 18, had at least one child between ages 4-10 and the primary shopper of their household.

  • Seinfeld's 10 Enduring Lessons---About the IRS
    Robert W. Wood THE TAX LAWYER TAXES 7/05/2014 Seinfeld's 10 Enduring Lessons---About The IRS On Seinfeld’s 25th anniversary–it debuted July 5th, 1989–it is being discussed again around today’s version of the water cooler. Yes, Seinfeld at 25: There’s Still Nothing Else Like It. Turns out even a show about nothing can teach us something, including tax lessons like these: 1. IRS Has Power. In “The Truth,” aired September 25, 1991, the IRS asks Jerry about a $50 charitable contribution to rescue the people of Krakatoa. When the charity turned out to be fake, Jerry says the IRS is “like the mafia. They can take anything they want.” That may seem overstated, but it’s true that the IRS has a lot of power. Never forget it. 2. Timing Matters. Sure, the IRS has power, but there are limits too. Jerry’s audit was for 1986, and the show aired in 1991. If Jerry filed his 1986 tax return in 1987, this audit was beyond the three year statute of limitations. In some cases, how long can IRS audit depends on you, but there are plenty of procedural safeguards if you file on time, respond to notices promptly, and keep the administrative process going. 1997 Emmy Awards – photo by Alan Light (Photo credit: Wikipedia) 3. Write-Offs Count. In “The Package,” aired October 17, 1996, Kramer convinces Jerry to say his stereo was broken during shipping. Their conversation about write-offs reveals what many Americans think, as if “I’ll just write it off,” means the expense doesn’t count.
