Water makes up 75% of human body. It is the most important ingredient in our bodies. Today many people ignore drinking water and concentrate more into the carbonated drinks. One of the main reasons I would think people drink more carbonated drinks (such as sodas and sport drinks) is because of the way a company hype up their products and use their marketing strategies to influence people into buying them. Many benefits come out of drinking water. First, it quenches one’s thirst much better than any carbonated drinks. Second, it keeps one’s skin clear and healthy looking. In addition, it protects the human body from several diseases. Many people choose drinking sodas and sports drinks than water because water does not have much of a taste and carbonated drinks are flavored and tasteful. I guess I am one of those people who has being caught on to the hype of the soda companies. I do not really drink much water I would say I barely drink two cups a day, but I know the how good water is for my body. So I am modifying my behavior by adding more water to my diet.
Target Goal-
I have being drinking a lot of sodas and sport drinks, and maybe barely two cups a day of water. I guess I am one of those people who care more about the taste then its contents but I have to change to have a longer lasting health. I know the advantages and benefits of water so I am going to reduce drinking carbonated drinks and concentrate more on drinking water. One of the benefits I see that comes out of drinking water is I will be saving a lot of money on sodas and sport drinks. But the main reason to drink water would be to achieve good and better health.
Design-
I drink around one cup of water everyday. Therefore, I will start my baseline recording from drinking a cup a day. I am going to start my first week off with drinking 2-3 cups a day for 5 days a week. My overall goal is to drink 10 cups of water per day for 5 days a week by end of this assignment. I decided to use the changing-criterion design for the modification to drink more water. In this design, I am going to increase my criterion by adding 2 drinks to the previous week for 5 days week every week. The first week I will start out with drinking 2 cups per day for 5 days a week. And then finally the 5th week end up at 10 cups for 5 days a week. My detailed criteria of the treatment phase are going to...

...th 10 cups for 5 days a week.
The fifth week rolls around with 10 cups a day for 5 days week. I wasn’t really sure about this week but I also wasn’t about to give it up. I planned out the next 5 days so I finish my criteria of 10 cups a day. I would carry the bottle around with me and keep track of how many cups I was going through. I started doing that Sunday and I did it till Thursday. I made it by drinking 10 cups a day for 5 days a week. I am not sure if I will be able to keep pace with the way I did for the previous weeks. But I am sure that I will be drinking a lot of water then before.
Conclusion-
I made my goal of drinking 10 cups a day for 5 days a week. It felt good to have set my mind on something and actually accomplish it. I felt challenged and disciplined, which were sometimes difficult but good to have. I hope to keep up with this program and drink some more water. I don’t know if I will have as much water consumption as I did during the project but I sure will be drinking more water than I used to before this program. I had 156 cups of water within these 5 weeks of program. I am glad I did this project and have a great feeling of accomplishment.
But Wal-Mart’s care for us goes beyond that simple relationship. As many of us have seen if we have been to a Wal-Mart, they hire people who normally would not be able to get a job. The company knows that by broadcasting itself as positive and helpful in nature it can increase its revenue and in turn increase the amount of assistance it provides to us the consumer. “In 2004 Wal-Mart donated over $170 million. More than 90 percent of these donations went to charities in the communities served by Wal-Mart stores.’ Even more heartfelt than this, Wal-Mart was the leader in goods based relief efforts for victims of hurricane Katrina. “Walmart’s response to the hurricane was lauded even by its critics: it donated more than $20 million worth of merchandise, including food for 100,000 meals, and it promised jobs for all of its displaced workers.” And the first supply truck to arrive at the superdome was a Wal-Mart truck.
Corporation has is to increase profits for its stockholders. Through a utilitarian perspective, we can see that Wal-Mart is acts in a way to product the greatest possible balance of good over dissatisfaction for their stockholders. Wal-Mart upholds the fiduciary duties to their stockholders by not increasing wages of their employees, instead they take the sum of money and return it back to their stockholders and shareholders such as customers and suppliers. Wal-Mart creates the happiness for the amount of people who invest in the company. Ethics is about the consequences of an action and the consequence of Wal-Mart’s actions creates the greatest amount of good for the people who are the primary stockholders of the corporation.

After a lengthy literature review on the subject, Card and his colleagues argue that “As this discussion [literature review] makes clear, the impact of unions on the structure of relative wages depends on both which types of workers tend to be unionized and on how union relative wage impacts vary across different groups of workers (Card, Lemieux & Riddell, 7).” This means that the demographics of workers in unions and how union wages impact these varying groups is significant, includ...
Based on the information and data collected through research the statement that soda has no nutritional benefits for the human body and causes harm, opposed to stating that soda has no negative effects to the body can be made. Soda is often a big part of a human’s diet. Therefore, the harmful effects of soda are occurring without people knowing soda is to blame and not having the knowledge of the illnesses that are linked to it.
In today’s world of employment, one can choose to work in a unionized or a non unionized workplace; both situations have positive and negative attributes. In a unionized situation, members experience benefits such as union representation, and aversions such as layoffs and strikes. In a non-union situation, workers experience benefits such as better treatment by management, and aversions such as decreased benefits and overall decreased wages. Although over the last few decades union membership and growth have decreased, organized labor is becoming popular.
I would plan my meals out for the day and place them in the system and see what my outcome would be before I cook or prepare them from me and my son. I also tied to bake a lot of my foods and not fry them. I eliminated a lot of salts and sodium from my diet as will. The food tracker counts everything! I made to sure not to substitute to many to snacks to replace my craving of bread. Me and my son came up with fun things to eat like the old school peanut butter and celery with raisins for snacks. On the third day we actually ate nothing but veggies for dinner like asparagus, corn, and sliced Irish potatoes. The meal was very different but for my son to like it I was shocked. I even

Humans use water on a daily basis, in everything from drinking, to cleaning, and for recreational uses in pools or waterparks. But the human body itself is the main contester in how it is used. Water is a dissolving essential in vitamins and nutrients for food and for delivering them to cells. Our bodies also use water to flush out toxins, regulate body temperature, and aid our metabolism.

The term collective bargaining is quite common within organizational circles. The term captures the reality of the issues that exist in the relationship between employers and workers. Indeed, employers need employees to provide the necessary labor to achieve organizational goals.

Soda contains carbonated water and that does not contribute anything beneficial to your body. There are some experts who claim that carbonated water is not nearly as good when it comes to hydrating your body as regular water.

Soda is very rich in sugar and the average America can of soda contains nearly 40 grams of it and this is definitely not good for your
Walmart, a conglomerate with global sites, has influenced its subsidiaries and co-operate in managing, addressing, enforcing and formalizing its foundation because of organizational structure and culture. For example, “Approximately 500,000 Wal-Mart associates throughout United States have participated in the Personal sustainability Project (PSP), a voluntary program encouraged by CEO Lee Scott (Ferrell, Fraedrich, Ferrell, 2011).” “Scott called also called for Congress to increase minimum wage and noted that Wal-Mart had increased spending on health insurance (Ferrell, Fraedrich, Ferrell, 2011).” They share values, disciplinary actions, standards of learning are the same with all their stores. They are leaders in their business and they lead by example. This category share corporate social responsibility which rate from zero to five is in richness according to the content analysis theory (Jizi et al2014) that is used to measure corporate social responsibility, will prove that Wal-Mart’s chains-stores: Sam’s Club, and other owners in the Wal-Mart company, value key stakeholders including the minority individuals. These are people who are interested in an “everyday low price.” It is used to measure the content of CSR disclosure of community involvement, environment, human resources, and social products and service quality according to (Jizi et al2014).Wal-Mart is quite aware that being socially responsible is very expensive. However, with the annual disclosure giving greater transparency in daily operations, I believe that more investors will become interested in its evolution and be able to benefit from its profit. For example, China is the largest supplier for Wal-Mart according to (Ferrell, Fraedrich, Ferrell,
