Gambling: An Addiction or A Hobby?

Whether it is purchasing a Lottery ticket or a scratcher, visiting a casino, purchasing a pack of trading cards, or even betting your friend whether or not he will eat the hottest pepper, these are all forms of gambling. We may have the perception that gambling is associated with losing/winning money or if it has anything to do with a casino in Las Vegas but actually we are gambling with almost every decision that we make; some are just more calculated decisions than others.

I love gambling. I love purchasing Lottery tickets, scratchers, and especially paying a visit to the casinos. Of course winning makes everything much better but everyone is bound to lose at one point or another. Now only being 21, I have probably been to a casino more than many other 21 year olds and even more than some adults. I know I do not have an addiction to gambling as I know when to stop when I am down and when to walk away when I am up. Yet many friends still call me a gambler or addicted to gambling jokingly or not jokingly I’m not sure. So where exactly do we draw the line between having an addiction versus being a hobby?

Ultimately, what differentiates a hobby from an addiction is that hobbies are voluntary. Hobbies are fulfilling in their own right, not something you do to get a high or because you feel like you must do them. However, I feel a high when I gamble, but it is not something that I always seek or need to have. An addition is something you have to do. Addictions are usually characterized by compulsive behavior. People who fuel their addictions do so not because they enjoy it, but because they feel anxious and restless when they can’t indulge in their addiction. I definitely am not restless just because I am not gambling but it is hard to explain it to my friends. I trust myself to not get addicted and as do my parents. So for now, I like to say that gambling is more of a hobby of mine.



Food Blog #3- Omnivore's Dilemma

Chapter 7- The Meal—Fast Food

If I were to guess what the title of this chapter meant without reading any previous chapters, I would assume that Michael Pollan would rip the fast food industry for being unhealthy and for consumer’s not knowing where their food comes from, if it is even real food. Instead, I believe that Michael Pollan is going to do the exact opposite, although not praise fast foods, but help tell consumers where exactly the foods have been and how they may have ended up in our Happy Meals.

After the reading the chapter, I should have guessed and knew that Pollan would relate everything back to corn but I was not far off from my predicament just from the title of the chapter. “That perhaps is what the industrial food chain does best: obscure the histories of the foods it produces by processing them to such an extent that they appear as pure products of culture rather than nature—things made from plants and animals” (pg. 115). I feel as if Michael Pollan may have captured the whole point of his book in this one quote. In today’s food markets, not very often are consumers buying produce that are fresh or in their “natural form” anymore. Instead, especially for households with lower incomes, processed foods are usually cheaper, more convenient, and have more total calories than buying produce that is organic or fresh. Many Americans do not have the time to cook which may also lead to a higher consumption of processed foods. I remember watching a documentary when it referred to obese students due to eating too much processed foods. The parents admitted that buying chips help feed their kids much better than buying any fruits. By the time we see the processed foods in front of us, it is pretty much unrecognizable.


Although Michael Pollan was talking about a McDonald’s meal with his family when he stated this quote, “What in the eyes of the omnivore looks like a meal of impressive variety turns out, when viewed through the eyes of the mass spectrometer, to be the meal of a far more specialized kind of eater. But then, this is what the industrial eater has become: corn’s koala” (pg. 117), I feel as if not many Americans would agree that we are corn’s koala. Even for myself, reading Pollan’s first few chapters, I am still not able to wrap my head around the fact that so many products are made of corn. The calories count and nutritional information on menus sure do not portray our food as if they were all made from some sort of corn. So what I am trying to say is that the general public would have no idea that corn is so prevalent. When I eat a regular meal (not a meal from McDonald’s), I would guess that my beef is beef and that my potatoes are potatoes and my iced tea are made from tea leaves. But if I were to run my meal through an extensive test as Pollan described, I am sure that much of my meal either came from or is composed of corn. I am not sure if the general public needs to know exactly all of the specific details but maybe turn it into a quick fact or a fun fact for American consumers.

Gone Fishin’

Best Fishing Spots- Mammoth Lakes, California

Have you ever “Gone Fishin’” and came up empty handed? The family to your right is pulling up a fish a minute and the old man on your left laughs at you and your empty lines every time he catches a fish. You spent fifty dollars on a fishing license, hundreds of dollars on a rod, and five dollars for a tub of worms. You scratch your head thinking what you can possibly be doing wrong?! You never want to go fishing again. But before you give up on catching that ten pound trout, let me tell you about the best places to catch your limit at Mammoth Lakes.

Mammoth Lakes is known as one of the most challenging and rewarding fishing destinations on the West coast. The wonder and beauty of the Eastern Sierra with crystal clear lakes and rivers will have you mesmerized from the get go (Visit Mammoth). Fishing at Mammoth can be done in many ways- from shore or a boat, from the dock, and even in lakes and rivers and streams. With all these different possibilities, there’s always something for everyone. What are you waiting for?  

Recommended Fishing Destinations
If you’re new to fishing at Mammoth Lakes, here are the top 3 spots you would want to go. If you’re a seasoned angler, you have already been here and have had great success:

1. Crowley Lake
2. Lake Mary
3. San Joaquin River

For each location, I will give you a brief overview of the destination, the best spots to hook a monster fish, the technique and equipment that will give you the greatest odds to land the five pounder, and the most popular species of fish.

Crowley Lake
(Sierra Drifters-Crowley Lake)
Beautiful Brown Trout --Crowley Lake (Sierra Drifters-Crowley Lake) 
Crowley Lake is located just off of Highway 395 and is known to be an incredible fishery that produces large, beautiful trout that will give you the fight of your life. The lake is twelve miles long and five miles wide which gives you lots of space to work with (Crowley Lake Fish Camp). Now although there is plenty of shoreline to try your new rod, I suggest renting a boat from the Crowley Lake Marina for slightly under $100. The lake is just too big to fish it from the shore. Now with a boat, you are able to cover more of the lake as well as perform different techniques of fishing that will give you the best chance to land a fish. Trolling is extremely popular and this is where you leave your lines off the end of your boat and drive the boat slowly, giving your bait enough of a current to look like a real fish or a juicy worm. Fly fishing also works tremendously well at Crowley Lake due to many of the fish lurking around the surface of the water eating flies. Crowley Lake is crawling with a variety of species of fish which include stocked rainbow trout, wild rainbow trout, wild brown trout, and the elusive cutthroat trout.

Lake Mary
Me at Lake Mary with Rainbow Trout
Lake Mary is the largest lake of the four lakes in the Mammoth Lakes Basin. The lake stretches out for nearly a mile and covers almost 140 acres and has a boat ramp and tackle store (Dave’s Sierra Fishing). Compared to Crowley Lake, Lake Mary is tiny. However, Lake Mary is nicknamed Lake Big Fish. The best spots to fish at Lake Mary are the inlets where the water comes from Lake George and from float tubing in the middle of the lake (DeCamp). To hook a fish at Lake Mary is completely different than the techniques described for Lake Crowley. Instead of trolling or fly fishing, the best way to catch a fish is to either use a bobble and worm and fish from the surface of the water or to use a weight and sinker to fish off the bottom of the surface. Both techniques are similar: imagine a bobble sitting atop the water and your worm is a few inches from your bobble while a weight sits on the lake bottom and the worm floats a few inches from the bottom. The most sought after fish at Lake Mary is the rainbow trout which most of the time are stocked trout from hatcheries. Also, if you would like to encounter a bear, Lake Mary is the place to go.

San Joaquin River
Fly Fisherman at San Joaquin River(Sierra Drifters-San Joaquin River) 
The San Joaquin River is the largest river of Central California stretching 366 miles. Nine miles of the Middle Fork of the San Joaquin River is accessible near Mammoth Lakes and is surrounded by Devils Post Pile National Monument and Reds Meadows (Dave’s Sierra Fishing). Honestly, the best place to fish at the San Joaquin River is anywhere. Although some anglers prefer certain spots along the river, the fishing is good all along the river so you cannot go wrong with choosing a spot. Your best bet in terms of technique would be fly fishing and even bait fishing. Fly fishing is the most popular while wading in halfway into the river while bait fishing is preferred in the pools and along the bends of the river. Now what differentiates San Joaquin River from most other places in Mammoth Lakes is the fish that can be caught. Species range from rainbow, brown, brook, and gold trout (Dave’s Sierra Fishing). However, many of the fish in the San Joaquin River are wild rather than stocked fish from the hatchery. Wild fish are much more fun to reel in, putting up a better fight. Not only do they give you a run for your money but they also taste much better, having a more pink meat compared to white meat of hatchery fish. But if you’re looking to catch a monster here, wild fish tend to be smaller than stocked hatchery fish so keep that in mind if you’re trying to show off to your friends.

If you’re looking to catch your trophy fish of seven pounds, Crowley Lake is the place to go. If you’re looking to max out on your daily/trip limit, Lake Mary would be your best bet. If you’re looking for the best fight, the San Joaquin River will give you the strongest battle.

Just some general tips:
·         Fishing begins at sunrise and concludes at sundown
·         Best time to fish is early in the morning when the fish first wake up
·         PowerBait only really works on hatchery fish, not wild fish
·         Have fun!

With your newfound knowledge, it is time for you to gather your rod and bait and go catch your limit!

Best Fishing Spots- Mammoth Lakes, California

Gone Fishin’

Have you ever “Gone Fishin’” and came up empty handed? The family to your right is pulling up a fish a minute and the old man on your left laughs at you and your empty lines every time he catches a fish. You spent fifty dollars on a fishing license, hundreds of dollars on a rod, and five dollars for a tub of worms. You scratch your head thinking what you can possibly be doing wrong, you’re at the same lake as everyone else! You never want to go fishing again. But before you give up on catching that ten pound trout, let me tell you about the best places to catch your limit at Mammoth Lakes.

Mammoth Lakes is known as one of the most challenging and rewarding fishing destinations on the West coast. The wonder and beauty of the Eastern Sierra with crystal clear lakes and rivers will have you mesmerized from the get go. Fishing at Mammoth can be done in many ways- from shore or a boat, from the dock, and even in lakes and rivers and streams. Along with all the different ways of fishing, there are also a variety of fishing techniques, in addition to gear, baits, and lures. With all these different possibilities, there’s always something for everyone. What are you waiting for?

Recommended Fishing Destinations
If you’re new to fishing at Mammoth Lakes, here are the top 4 spots you would want to go. If you’re a seasoned angler, you have already been here and have had great success:

1.      Crowley Lake
2.      Lake Mary
3.      San Joaquin River
4.      Owens River

Here I have given you pretty much two options to choose from either a lake or a river and both have their upsides depending on your preference. For each location, I will give you a brief overview of the destination, the best spots to hook a monster fish, the technique and equipment that will give you the greatest odds to land the five pounder, and the most popular species of fish.

Crowley Lake
Crowley Lake is located just off of Highway 395 and is known to be an incredible fishery that produces large, beautiful trout that will give you the fight of your life. The lake is twelve miles long and five miles wide which gives you lots of space to work with. Now although there is plenty of shoreline to try your new rod, I suggest renting a boat from the Crowley Lake Marina for slightly under $100. The lake is just too big to fish it from the shore; keep in mind if you can see the fish, the fish can see you. Now with a boat, you are able to cover more of the lake as well as perform different techniques of fishing that will give you the best chance to land a fish. Trolling is extremely popular and this is where you leave your lines off the end of your boat and drive the boat slowly, giving your bait enough of a current to look like a real fish or a juicy worm. Fly fishing also works tremendously well at Crowley Lake due to many of the fish lurking around the surface of the water eating flies. A fair warning, do not drive to the middle of the lake and drop your bait all the way to the bottom, you will not feel a bite since there are no fish down there. Crowley Lake is crawling with a variety of species of fish which include stocked rainbow trout, wild brown trout, and wild cutthroat trout. Crowley Lake is one of the few destinations to catch the elusive cutthroat trout.

Lake Mary
Lake Mary is the largest lake of the four lakes in the Mammoth lakes Basin. The lake stretches out for nearly a mile and covers almost 140 acres and has a boat ramp and tackle store. Compared to Crowley Lake, Lake Mary is tiny. However, Lake Mary is nicknamed Lake Big Fish.

The most sought after fish at Lake Mary is the rainbow trout which most of the time are stocked trout from hatcheries. Also, if you would like to encounter a bear, Lake Mary is the place to go.

San Joaquin River
The San Joaquin River is the largest river of Central California stretching 366 miles. 9 miles of the Middle Fork of the San Joaquin River is accessible near Mammoth Lakes and is surrounded by Devils Postpile National Monument and Reds Meadows. Honestly, the best place to fish at the San Joaquin River is anywhere. Although some anglers prefer certain spots along the river, fishing is good all along the river so you cannot go wrong with choosing a spot. Your best bet in terms of technique would be fly fishing and even bait fishing. Fly fishing is the most popular while wading in halfway into the river while bait fishing is preferred in the pools and along the bends of the river. Now what differentiates San Joaquin River from most other places in Mammoth Lakes is the fish that can be caught. Species range from rainbow, brown, brook, and gold trout.

Not only do they give you a run for your money but they also taste much better, having a more pink meat compared to white meat of hatchery fish. But if you’re looking to catch a monster here, wild fish tend to be smaller than stocked hatchery fish so keep that in mind if you’re trying to show off to your friends.

Owens River
The Owens River is sixty miles long and is divided into two parts, the Upper Owens and the Lower Owens. The Upper Owens is a high plains spring creek and is located closer to Mammoth Lakes while the Lower Owens is valley tailwater closer to Bishop. So the Lower Owens would be a perfect stop before reaching your final destination of Mammoth. The Owens are relatively clear with very few trees to provide shade but most of the river is private, especially in the Upper parts. Your best bet would be to find a small bend in the river somewhere along the lower part of the river. The best way to catch the trophy fish is to either fly fish or just use a normal bait and hook. The fishing is simple, drop your fly or bait at the top of the bend and let the river’s current do the rest of the job, carrying it down river. Once it’s a bit far down, just recast it to the top of the river. Owens River do not boast a wide variety of fish but instead only house wild brown trout and wild and stocked rainbow trout.

If you’re looking to max out on your daily/trip limit, Lake Mary and the Owens River would be your best bet. If you’re looking to catch your trophy fish of seven pounds, Crowley Lake is the place to go. If you’re looking for the best fight, the San Joaquin River will give you the strongest battle.

Just some general tips:
·         Fishing begins at sunrise and concludes at sundown
·         Best time to fish is early in the morning when the fish first wake up
·         PowerBait only really works on hatchery fish, not wild fish
·         Have fun!

With your newfound knowledge and insider information, it is time for you to gather your gear and go catch your limit!

Food Blog 2- Omnivore's Dilemma

I like to start my analysis of each chapter by trying to make sense or understand the title prior to reading it. The chapter title is “The Farm” and with the help of the subtitles, I thought it has to do with where the physical crops are grown, especially corn since it was mentioned in the first chapter. But what about the farm does the author have to relay to us?

The first subtitle already caught my attention: “One farmer, 129 eaters.” Firstly, is there a study that shows that one farmer produces for 129 eaters? I feel like there are way more eaters because I definitely do not think that there are that many farmers left in the country. Coming across this quote, “For though this farm might feed 129, it can no longer support the four who live on it” (pg 34), it made me realize that our society is not recognizing all the hard work that farmers are putting in and that without farmers, we would have no food at all.

“Farmers eager to increase their yields adopt the latest innovation, only to find that it’s the companies selling the innovations who reap the most from the gain in the farmer’s productivity” (pg. 36). This next quote reminded me that even though growing corn or crops is ultimately a fundamental need for food, it is still a business and sometimes business does not leave space for anything else besides profits. I just feel bad for all the farmers who work so hard to provide for all the eaters.

Although I am not too knowledgeable on the contract that the government has with American farmers, the author makes an interesting point at the end of this quote. “American’s farm policy was forged during the Depression not, as many people seem to think, to encourage farmers to produce more food for a hungry nation, but to rescue farmers from the disastrous effects of growing too much food-far more than Americans could afford to buy” (pg. 49). Corn must have been so prevalent not only today but a few decades ago that the government knew that they would have a problem if all the corn grown were to be sold. Today, I believe (don’t quote me on this) that the government are paying farmers more to grow and stay in the fields.

“In corn’s case, humans have labored mightily to free it from either constraint, even if that means going broke growing it, and consuming it just as fast as we possibly can” (pg.56). This quote reminded me of the documentary in class that we were watching about Apples and how humans have done so much for the apples to migrate all the way to the Americans from China. Humans have not given up on corn and depend on it dearly.

Food Blog 1- Omnivore's Dilemma

Introduction

Before reading the book, I thought about the title of the book, Omnivore’s Dilemma. I know what an omnivore is and I know what a dilemma is but I knew that it was more than the dilemma of choosing what to eat for every meal. The first quote that I related to was “When you can eat just about anything nature has to offer, deciding what you should eat will inevitably stir anxiety, especially when some of the potential foods on offer are liable to sicken or kill you” (pg. 3). Although I am not exactly sure of the author’s definition of omnivore’s dilemma quite yet, I feel like the quote is quite relevant to me and to many others on a daily basis but on a surface level. My friends and I always have the problem of choosing where to eat whether it be for lunch or dinner. And even though the decision seems very important at the moment, at the end of the day, it is very minuscule because it is only one meal in one day out of hundreds and hundreds of meals in a year.

Two other quotes that struck me as interesting were “But for omnivores like us a vast amount of brain space and time must be devoted to figuring out which of all the many potential dishes nature lays on are safe to eat” (pg. 4) and “Many anthropologists believe that the reason we evolved such big and intricate brains was precisely to help us deal with the omnivore’s dilemma” (pg. 4). I would have never thought of anything preposterous like this. Firstly, I would never eat anything purposefully that would do arm to my body. I have some friends who would be allergic to certain foods and eat them anyways and decide to just suffer through it because it’s so good. So I guess there are people like that. Secondly, I think I will need to read more of the book and understand the anthropologists’ idea that our brains are so developed because of how we eat because I definitely do not feel a strong connection with brain power and food nor can I quite believe this.

Chapter 1-The Plant: Corn’s Conquest

“Beef people sounds more like it, though nowadays chicken people, which sounds not nearly so good, is probably closer to the truth of the matter” (pg. 23). I think nowadays it should be labeled as no-carbs people or consume everything people because there are so many new trends to eating that it is more than just a certain animal or food product. I myself would be under the consume everything people just because I like to eat and there aren’t many foods that I do not like.


Finally, I wonder what our world would be like if “…corn would have disappeared from the earth in a few years” (pg. 26) (in a few years from when it was introduced). I never knew that corn was such an important food in so many of a day today products, not only other foods. I think Professor Hansen was right that the chapter would teach me more about corn that I would ever know or wanted to know, although I didn’t quite know that corns had sex. But corn has proven itself to be such a staple in a lives for hundreds of years that I can only imagine what life would be like without it.

Job Memo

Forensic Investigations Associate at KPMG

When you hear forensic investigations, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Most people tend to think of the television show CSI, the FBI, or some sort of super-secret agent. Well, I am here to tell you that being a Forensic Investigations Associate isn’t quite like that. In fact, it involves you sitting in a cubicle processing and analyzing data.

Forensic investigations lies under risk consulting which helps organizations transform risk and compliance efforts into a competitive advantage. Applying a risk lens to corporate strategy improves an organization’s risk intelligence and decision making. The process between KPMG and their client is as follows:

1.      A Client approaches KPMG with suspicion of fraudulent activities occurring within their company.
2.      KPMG collects their client’s data and analyzes the data to find out who is involved, when the fraudulent activities began, and what the results of the fraudulent activity are.
3.      The results are then displayed in graphical format and presented in a report which is then given to the client.

My experience is limited to this past summer but I am looking forward to continuing my career in forensic investigations. I will first take you through my experience as an intern and then describe the expectations and responsibilities of a full time associate.

Summer Internship

My internship started with a national intern training hosted by KPMG in Orlando, Florida. With over 1400 interns from all over the country attending, the training taught us the importance of knowing ourselves and our own character and just meeting new people and creating new relationships. I also learned about risk consulting and ways how to identify risks and control them. Throughout the week, I explored the night life of Orlando during my free time. Overall, the training provided a valuable experience not only in meeting new people but taught fundamental skills relevant to forensic investigations.

As an intern, the tasks assigned to me were extremely limited in scope due to the lack of training and sensitivity of client information. Due to the restrictions, my experience consisted of mostly data entry. However, on certain engagements, I listened to communication between the lead partner and the client. This provided me with an overall idea of the engagement at hand even though I performed only data entry. Over the course of seven weeks, I performed a variety of tasks:

·         Entered and analyzed 500+ reports to detect fraudulent activities for clientele
·         Organized 7600+ invoices for easier accessibility and in preparation for evidence handling
·         Proposed diagrams and graphs to display data for client deliverable
·         Participated in numerous volunteering events in the Los Angeles community

For example, one engagement I worked on involved a whistleblower who informed our clients that there have been employees participating in fraudulent survey results. In order to figure out who was involved and when it started, our client sent us their daily drilling records for us to analyze. I then transcribed their handwritten records into Excel for easier accessibility and from there passed it onto the associate and manager. I also created a visual for our client to show them which employee was involved with which drilling record. The client expressed how pleased they were with our work and praised KPMG for completing yet another job.

Full Time Forensic Investigations Associate

During my internship, I had the opportunity to talk to associates, senior associates, managers, directors, and even partners to gain their perspective on the industry, company, and what I should expect as an incoming forensic investigation associate. Across the board, everyone encouraged me to refine my Excel skills, learn the fundamentals of SQL, and be able to produce aesthetic PowerPoints. In addition, I learned the responsibilities of a forensic investigations associate:

·         Conduct and coordinate large-scale, multi-jurisdictional investigations
·         Summarize, analyze, and prepare analysis reports and findings in a clear, logical, and concise manner
·         Interact with and interview clients and other external sources in order to obtain relevant information and documents, and supervise a professional team with backgrounds ranging from accounting to law enforcement
·         Evaluate internal control structures and data to help identify weaknesses and associated risks and make recommendations on how to mitigate those risks and evaluate the general risk faced by the client in a particular industry

For example, my senior associate “buddy” exchanged numerous emails with the client and created and presented graphs based on the data that I had inputted. This gave a clear and concise picture to the client what we had discovered and what precautions they should take going forward.

As an intern, I was not able to participate in any of these responsibilities but I am looking forward to contribute more as a full-time associate. Moreover, KPMG allows incoming associates to participate in their 50-50 program in which I will be rotating between forensic investigations and audit services every six months. This allows me to gain exposure to both practices as well as fulfill the required hours to pass my attest CPA exam.

The countless opportunities at KPMG allow for me to grow professionally and mentally while the culture and environment in the office allows for endless opportunities and friendships.
