Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Health - Miscellaneous, grade: B, The University of Liverpool, language: English, abstract: The impact of soy foods on potential breast cancer risk has been a topic of considerable investigation in the medical field.

Isoflavones are mainly contained in soybeans.

Corporate Scandal and Impact on the Audit Profession
Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: A, The University of Liverpool, language: English, abstract: The economic crisis in Europe and earlier credit crisis during 2008 have opened up the debate on the role of auditors and the corporate houses are carrying out their activities. The 2008 mortgage crisis resulted in many financial companies going bankrupt while some closing down permanently. The effect of crisis was felt world-over and one Indian company, Satyam Computers went bankrupt and this is a particular case where the role of auditors from PriceWaterCoopers House, India was questioned (The Indian Express, 2012). Larsson (2005) stated that major corporate frauds and scandals are regularly followed by the debate concerning the aim and scope of auditing. While there were such scandals earlier, this paper analyses one such corporate scandal and how it has affected and changed the profession of auditors in coming years.

Rituals of Fertility and the Sacrifice of Desire
With close to one million members, the Church of the Nazarites (ibandla lamaNazaretha) is one of the most popular indigenous religious communities in South Africa. Founded in 1910 by Isaiah Shembe, it offers South Africans—particularly disadvantaged black women and girls—a way to remake and reconnect to ancient sacred traditions disrupted by colonialism and apartheid. Ethnomusicologist Carol Muller explores the everyday lives of Nazarite women through their religious songs and dances, dream narratives, and fertility rituals, which come to life both musically and visually on CD-ROM. Against the backdrop of South Africa's turbulent history, Muller shows how Shembe's ideas of female ritual purity developed as a response to a regime and culture that pushed all things associated with women, cultural expression, and Africanness to the margins. Carol Muller breaks new ground in the study of this changing region and along the way includes fascinating details of her own poignant journey, as a young, white South African woman, to the "other" side of a divided society.
