Описание: Abstract: The study looks at factors which influence food selection of Greeks and Greek Americans and the resulting risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Americans have six times the rate of CHD as Greeks and it can be partially attributed to differences in their diets. Do Greek-Americans who adapt to more American style diets increase their CHD risk? The literature and this study show that they do. Are Greek holidays and foods eliminated or consumed during these times protective against increased risk of CHD? The study found no relationship. What are the influences that contribute to Greek Americans introducing more American style foods into their diets when they live in the US? The study found that foods advertised on TV, recipes in popular magazines and using coupons for food purchases were strong predictors of selecting more American style foods. Greeks were not as influenced as non-Greeks by convenience or commercially prepared foods. The study compares differences in types of foods eaten between Greeks, Greek-Americans and non-Greeks. Nutritionists who want to influence healthy dietary choices may have greater success by using informative TV advertisements, enticing recipes and food coupons to influence the selection of foods that predict a lower risk of CHD.

Описание: Much to the dismay of her Greek family, Zanna Krykos makes a living as a lawyer in Tarpon Springs, Florida. When her friend Lucy needs legal advice about the business she inherited upon her father's passing, she ends up asking Zanna to run the business instead so she can focus on her medical career. Nico Kalos is a Greek diver who has worked on sponging boats in the Aegean Sea since the age of 14, giving him a vast knowledge of the trade. When he hears of an opportunity to lead a group of spongers to the United States, he seizes it. But his excitement is quickly quelled when he arrives only to discover that a young woman with no experience in the business will be in charge of the new crews. But as Zanna and Nico face even more complications than they could have imagined, they must learn to work together or risk everything they've worked so hard for.

Описание: Lunardi delves into the early days of Bracketology, details its growth, and dispels the myths of the process. The NCAA Tournament has become one of the most popular sports events in the country, consuming fans for weeks with the run to the Final Four and ultimately the crowning of the champion of college hoops. Each March, millions of Americans fill out their bracket in the hopes of correctly predicting the future. Yet, there is no true Madness without the oft-debated question about what teams should be seeded where -- from the Power-5 Blue Blood with some early season stumbles on their resume to the mid-major that rampaged through their less competitive conference season -- and the inventor of Bracketology himself, Joe Lunardi, now reveals the mystery and science behind the legend. While going in depth on his ever-evolving predictive formula, Lunardi compares great teams from different eras with intriguing results, talks to the biggest names in college basketball about their perception of Bracketology (both good and bad), and looks ahead to the future of the sport and how Bracketology will help shape the conversation. This fascinating book is a must-read for college hoops fans and anyone who has aspired to win their yearly office pool.
