Abstract
The paper discusses the components detrimental to the growth and maintenance of a healthy relationship. The paper explores intimate relationships and friendships. The paper shows that, to have a healthy relationship, two individuals have to "plant" seeds of love and commit to regularly "weed" out negatives, while at the same time nurture the positive points of their relationship. The paper includes true/false questions and plenty of resource material.
From the Paper
"Even though these true/false questions appear to be relatively shallow, news headlines portraying an epidemic crop of unhealthy relationships, alongside the myriad of contemporary divorce rates, reflect that in regard to maintaining healthy relationships, many individuals repeatedly fail the "true/false" test. Perhaps, part of the reason so many fail at maintaining healthy relationships stems from the fact, as Levine, Aune, & Park note: "Love means different things to different people . . ." This research paper purports, albeit, contrary to the concept contributing to this contention: To maintain, a healthy relationship, it must be rooted in a common definition of love. In a healthy relationship, "Keeping love alive requires work. . . . to maintain a healthy relationship requires effort, time and energy,." Mosier (2003) argue. Most individuals do not know, however, what having a healthy relationship involves."

The author concludes that this series of programs must be continually reinforced to guarantee their success.
From the Paper
" Healthy People 2010 is a multi-faceted program developed to create self-awareness, responsibility, and overall healthy lifestyle choices for all Americans (Healthy People 2010 Homepage). There are two main goals set forth by the program, each containing several sub areas. Firstly, the United States Department of Health and Human Services wishes to extend both life expectancy and increase overall quality of life for all Americans. Secondly, the program aims to eliminate differences in health between the rich and the poor and the able and the disabled. The program aims to reach citizens of all economic levels, treating each person equally within the health care system."

The Cross-Departmental Teams
Superior Customer Service
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The net result of my teams is that people in the company are able to work together in a proactive manner to optimize customer satisfaction. For example, the Fulfillment Team meets monthly and continuously refines not only computer systems, but also the physical systems and processes in the building. Their goal is clear and simple: to improve the level of customer service. They succeed in this to a large degree because the various departments are not isolated from each other; all staff are aware of the big picture, and of what they can do to facilitate our continuing success. I have found that the more the different departments communicate, the more everyone realizes that they can create more opportunities for our business, and increase our opportunities to sell. Thus, we all work together to take a pro-active approach to the customer."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper stresses that something is going wrong in the way our children are being taught to eat, and something is not right with the foods that are being offered to them. The author points out that children learn a surprising amount from watching the world around them and following the examples set by their parents, siblings, and other people in their lives; therefore, the entire family should agree about helping the child learn how to be healthy. The paper states that children cannot be expected to eat the same size portions as adults because their bodies are smaller; children must be allowed to decide when they are full.
From the Paper
"Additionally, in order for children to truly be able to develop healthy food-related habits, they must be allowed to help make decisions about what they eat. Many children are not allowed to decide what kinds of food they eat, when they eat, and how much they eat. It is common for parents to scold their children and tell them to ?clean their plate? when the child feels they are done eating. ?Years ago, food was very hard to come by especially during The Great Depression and after World War II. When people have to deal with this sort of situation for years, they develop a certain mindset. Now we don't have that problem."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that the ability to critically assess a journal article is central to the skills required for advanced nursing. This paper presents a detailed critique of the nursing article "Using Technology to Promote Self-Efficacy for Healthy Eating in Adolescents", by nursing professors JoAnne D. Long and Kathleen R. Stevens. Critique details are broken down into the following sections: introduction, methodology and results.
Outline:
Problem statement
Literature review and theoretical framework
Hypothesis/Variables
Methodology
Design
Threats to internal and external validity
Subjects
Data collection methods/instrumentation
Results
Findings
Interpretation/Conclusions
From the Paper
"Threats to internal validity normally are perceived as selection, history, maturation, testing, and instrumentation. Selection threats suggest that those who participated in the control or intervention group have characteristics that differ from those who were not included in the study. There is a possible selection bias given that student were from a school in an undisclosed area of the country, it is unknown whether these were rural or urban youth, from a public or private school or what other variables might affect their level of nutritional, health or independence awareness. History, or the events that happen to students during the course of the study which might affect results, could not be accounted for as all intervention took place in the school setting. Researchers acknowledged they were unable to control for social or family interventions that might run counter to their study goals. Instrumentation, maturation, dropout, and order effects were controlled by researchers directly or through statistical analysis for variance."

A Healthy Atkins Diet, 2001.

1,874 words (approx. 7.5 pages), 16 sources, MLA, $ 59.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper questions whether the Atkins diet can solve obesity and Type 2 Diabetes epidemics in the United States. It looks at the make-up of the diet and its vital components and explains the health aspects of nutritional component. This is then examined as to whether the diet can really provide a solution to major diseases connected to obesity in the United States.
From the Paper
"Studies show that 64.5% of all Americans are overweight, and 30.5% of those are obese (Harvard Men?s Health Watch). The real concern is that "obesity is directly responsible for 300,000-400,000 deaths in the U.S. each year, nearly as many as smoking," reports the Harvard Medical School. How is America dealing with this major obesity epidemic? A majority of these overweight Americans are turning to the latest controversial "fad" diet referred to as the "Atkins diet.? As of December 1, 2002, the Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution paperback has dominated the New York Times best?seller list for over five years (New York Times). The Atkins diet is attractive to many people because it offers weight loss without starvation; not only does it shed off pounds without starving, but also without counting calories as one would on a traditional low-fat diet. But here is the catch?you must get rid of your sweet tooth! In addition, the Atkins diet appears to offer a solution to adult-onset, type 2 diabetes, which is also another major health epidemic in the United States. ?Approximately 17 million people in the United States, or 6.2% of the population, have diabetes,? most of which is adult-onset, type 2 diabetes, reports the American Diabetes Association. Although the Atkins diet has become an increasingly popular method for losing weight and may provide a solution to type 2 diabetes, ongoing controversy among medical researchers indicates that further research is necessary in order to deem it safe."

Wilson's Ability in Maintaining Peace, 2004.
A look at whether Woodrow Wilson possessed the will to maintain peace after WWI.
3,992 words (approx. 16.0 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 108.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
Woodrow Wilson did not possess the will to maintain peace after the Great War. The writer asserts that there were three ways in which Wilson contributed to the build-up of tensions before WWII. First was Wilson?s failure in responding to the members of the Peace Accords in relation to the redrawing of German boundaries; his influence in tearing away predominantly German areas resulted in the planting of seeds for future war. The second reason that Wilson could not maintain peace was his inability to remove himself from partisan politics in America. The third reason was in relation to Wilson's "Fourteen Points", more specifically, the point of ?self-determination.? Close examination of these three points shows why Wilson is partly responsible for WWII.
From the Paper
"The Great War was a war of attrition. Many brave men on all both sides of the conflict, Axis and Allied Powers, met their fate fighting for their homelands during the years of 1914-1918. Never before had the world seen such a horrid war fought in the grand scope and magnitude of nations versus nations. Great sacrifices were made in part to the loss of human life through mechanization of artillery to the inception of chemical warfare. (Would such a tragic lesson be reason enough for peace among sovereigns?) Unfortunately, the peace was not afforded to the constituents of the Paris conference, nor those that threw away their lives in the second war that shortly followed in 1939. While there were many causes for the Second World War, it would be a herculean effort to name and attribute them all. A few of the major causes included the onset of war reparations since repayment would be next to impossible for the Germans to meet in the allotted time. Secondly were the sanctions imposed upon the size of the German military which was considered a measure of further alienation, and thirdly were territorial settlement disputes. All three factors were great causes that angered the Nazis to disregard the Peace Accords in the early 1930?s with Hitler?s rise to power."

Development of an Innovative Healthy Food Product
Production of Tango
Intellectual Property
Government Regulations Regarding Ingredients and Labeling
Consumer Acceptance and Education
Advantages to the Consumer
Advantages to the Manufacturer
Future Directions
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The advantages of producing Tango, a nutritious health fruit drink, to the manufacturer, is that the process can actually be more streamlined than a mechanical squeezing processing in terms of plant outfitting and can actually be produced in a relatively inexpensive manner. Contract production will allow favorable pricing of both ingredients and finished product. Sampling will allow for marketing controls and for targeting national and export markets. The product will meet the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), European Union, and other specific certification requirements, so may be exported. The Internet will be considered as a target for purchases, but will mainly be used for advertising the product. Mapco stores will be the exclusive client of this product, and will be the outlet to other organic health food agencies that may elect to sponsor sales of this product, as well. "

Abstract
This paper examines several components of the U.S. economy from 2000-2002 in order to gage whether or not it is healthy. The economy's health prior to 2001 is discussed in detail in order to give the reader a good basis for understanding why certain materials are included in this paper. The author looks at GDP, the unemployment rate and inflation in order to examine their affect on the current economy. Any new monetary and fiscal policies that have been introduced to help deal with problems arising are then presented and analyzed in order to judge their efficiency.
From the Paper
"According to Encarta Gross Domestic Product is defined as total value of goods and services produced in a country over any given period of time. GDP is calculated in one of three ways: (1) by adding up the value of all goods and services produced, (2) by adding up the expenses on goods and services at there sold, or (3) by adding up manufacturer' earnings from the sale of services or goods. This variable is important when examining the health of the economy because it measures the country?s standard of living. If GDP increases at a higher rate than the population, standards of living are rising. If the population is increasing at a greater rate than GDP, living standards are falling. (Encarta) The following table shows U.S. GDP over the last 18 months: Starting with the fourth quarter of 2000 ending with the fourth quarter of 2001."

From the Paper
"It is clear that the most devastating ailment amongst the American children in the 21ST century is obesity. Ironically, the amount of people suffering from obesity is equal to the amount of people suffering from hunger and malnourishment. It is worth noting that the people suffering from obesity is increasing in rapid pace throughout America, at the same time as, health professionals, government and researchers have been unable to find an applicable solution other than physical activity (Laurel D. Edmunds, Kenneth R. Fox, 2000). As research has shown, "Physical inactivity contributes to 300,000 preventable deaths a year in the United States. Some 40% of deaths in the United States are caused by behavior patterns that could be modified. A sedentary lifestyle is a major risk factor across the spectrum of preventable diseases that lower the quality of life and kill Americans (Taken from: http://www.fitness.gov/hbpa.html)." Research also reveals, "Poor diet and inactivity can lead to overweight/obesity. Persons who are overweight or obese are at increased risk for high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, gallbladder disease, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, respiratory problems and some types of cancer (Taken from: http://www.fitness.gov/hbpa.html)."
