What does health department look for when someone bakes and handles food in their home for sale?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

I want to start my own business with baking and making food gifts. I am going to the health department this week, but was wandering what to expect when I go. Also what I may do to my kitchen to have it pass for inspection. I do keep it clean and disinfect with bleach.

My aunt had a home-based baking business. She never needed an inspection since she didn’t advertise or need a tax ID #. However, do you have pets? That’s a sticky one. So are young kids. Some cities may require you to rent an off-site kitchen, but if this is more of a hobby, like my aunt’s, you can do it at home. An inspector may inspect your house to make sure it’s not dirty, your oven’s baking at the right temp, your fridge is at the right temp, ingredients are being stored correctly, etc.

I have a friend right now who also does wedding cakes out of her house. Since it’s a hobby and she has a different FT job, she’s never needed a permit. But if you’re considering this your primary business, scrub the H*** out of your house and be very nice to the health department. They have no sense of humor whatsoever.

How good is wii fit as a daily aerobic fitness routine?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

I would like to spend a bit on home fitness. The toss up is between a wii + wii fit and a $300 treadmill. How has your experience been for aerobic routines with wii fit?

Wii Fit is a solid entry in the fitness genre for the Wii. The range of exercises, from easy to hard, can provide a framework for a daily workout routine that will pay off for players who invest in it.

Wii Fit offers four categories of exercises, including Yoga, Muscle Training, Aerobics,
Aerobics includes Hula Hoop and Basic Step, and Balance Games include Soccer Heading and Ski Slalom.The Aerobics exercises are great for consistent movement for the whole body. Hula Hoop will require players to sway their hips and catch additional hoops. Players can go on a virtual jog in Basic Run. Without the Balance Board, players simple hold or pocket the Wii Remote to jog in a beautiful landscape among Mii friends. There’s also the 2 People Run option for two-player jogs.

How do you determine which fitness level you are at?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

I read something which mentioned fitness levels such as 7.3 and 9.2. How do you work out which fitness level you are currently at?

base it on other peoples fitness levels and if they say for example i’m a 7.3 i run a mile a day lift for an hour etc. if you do that much your a 7.3, if you do more or the same exercise but longer or more intensely you’d be put higher. if you do less you get the idea.. that would be my guess.

How old do you think the models are in most anti-aging ads?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

I think Oil of Olay is probably the worst. I am seriously wonder how old some of the women are in these ads. I am 32 and do not need anti-aging cream, some of these women look younger than me…I am thinking on average they are about 28. What do you think?

Carolyn Murphy started doing ads for Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair, their anti-ageing product, when she was only 28 years old.

Is it safe to use Symbiotropin PRO HGH with any other supplements?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

I was thinking about ordering Symbiotropin PRO HGH and I was wondering if I could use other supplements like Leukic from Muscletech or Hydroxicut or anything like that with the Symbiotropin. Any insight would help.

I have never even heard of Symbiotropin PRO HGH, but you should ask where you bought it and they will usually tell you what you can use with it….. usually companies which put out products will have other different types of products you can use with it (like a weight gainer, and you can use a cut suppliment by the same company) but make sure you ask before you just mix you don’t wanna end up F*ed up man!!

How will the department of health and human services carry out a new health care plan?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

I have to write a bill for government and i need to explain how health and human services would carry out my bill after it would be passed. What steps would they take? My health care plan resembles obama’s plan if that helps.

Once the legislation is signed by the president, the approprriate department writes the regulations to implement the law.
For example, the LAW says we have to pay income taxes.
The IRS regulations say we have to file a form 1040.

First, proposed regs are written by the department staff.
They MUST follow the law.
They can not violate the law.

The proposed regs are published in the Federal Register, and the public has from 30 to 90 days to comment on them.

http://www.federalregister.gov/

The dept. reads the comments they get, and decide whether to change any of the proposed regs to fit the comments.
Yes, comments very often do make a difference.
I once had a job where it was my duty to write comments on proposed regs on hunger and poverty programs.

Once the dept. makes their decisions, the final regs are then published in the Federal Register again.

Then all of the necessary people are notified – insurance companies, state insurance departments, hospitals, doctors, etc.

They have to give everyone time to change their procedures to comply with the regs – paperwork, training staff, etc.

The final regs are then published again in the US Code of Federal Regulations
