Hot Topics in Education - College of Education Free Webinars
Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 03/29/2012 - 4:00pmThe College of Education will offer a free webinar for educators entitled "A Framework for Teaching in Content Areas." This webinar will address how students learn best when they are engaged in their own learning. Students are fully engaged in learning when they are interested and are able to sustain attention to tasks for a period of time to find the learning process rewarding. For long-term learning to occur, students must turn the action of engagement and attention into a process of cognitive processing where new information is knowingly integrated into previous knowledge and experiences, and differences in understanding and knowledge are actively mediated. Effective instructional practice not only acknowledges this, but also purposefully works to facilitate these conditions and cognitive processes. To register, visit www.uni.edu/coe/webinars

Exhibition Hall at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center
Exhibition Hall is home to E Pluribus Unum - Out of Many One, the only exhibition in the world dedicated to telling the story of the United States Congress and the U.S. Capitol. Exhibition Hall features original documents and artifacts, videos, touchable models, computer interactives and two small theaters, providing visitors with an in-depth look at how Congress works, the history of the Capitol and Congress, as well as information on Representatives and Senators.
Conflict and Compromise
Beginning Monday, March 11, the Capitol Visitor Center presents a selection of historic documents and artifacts in Exhibition Hall entitled "Conflict and Compromise." No reservations or passes are needed to visit Exhibition Hall, which is located on the lower level of the Visitor Center, behind the plaster model of the Statue of Freedom. Click here to see the exhibit.
By providing a place for debate and compromise, Congress has led the nation through challenging times. Several items in the new selection focus on the Mexican War and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. War between the U.S. and Mexico arose from disputes regarding their international boundary and U.S. attempts to expand its territory into Mexico. In March 1848, the Senate approved for ratification the treaty ending the Mexican War, which was signed in Guadalupe Hidalgo, Mexico, on February 2. The display includes the actual Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo signed with wax seals on February 2, 1848. Also included is a sketch from the Office of the Mexican Boundary Survey showing the area south of the Rio Gila, which is now part of Arizona.
There are many other treasured documents loaned from the National Archives and the Library of Congress that you won't want to miss. The Capitol Visitor Center, including Exhibition Hall, is open Monday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Twenty-minute Exhibition Hall tours are available Monday through Friday at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., and Monday through Saturday at 11 a.m., noon, 1 p.m., 2 p.m., and 3 p.m.

Area gun shops say that gun sales have significantly increased since the Dec. 14 shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Citizens are afraid that stricter gun laws will be put into affect because of the shooting and bans will be placed on certain firearms.
Full Metal Jacket Owner Russell Allen said that his store is up over 100 percent in sales and they have doubled their typical gun sales since the Newtown shooting.
Allen said that almost every five minutes his store receives a call about AR-15s. The AR-15 is a common assault weapon, and the federal government has discussed the possibility of banning such weapons and enforcing stricter gun laws. Since the recent attack, the demand for AR-15s have been high across the nation, according to Allen. FMJ does not expect to get anymore in, due to the country's high demand for them.
Allen does not think that stricter gun laws will have an affect on decreasing gun violence.
"Most crimes are done with illegally obtained guns." said Allen. "And if the government takes away guns, people will have no way to defend themselves, and will start using other weapons."
Southern Shooters on New Hutchinson Mill Road has sold about 100 guns since Newtown's massacre, up drastically from the normal eight to ten guns sold per week. Southern Shooters had sold the last of their five AR-15s between the Dec. 14 attack and last Tuesday.
Owner and Manager of Pawn Express Jake Long said that since the Newtown shooting, they have sold 21 guns as of Thursday afternoon; on a typical day, the shop would sell about one or two guns per day.
"The only thing they could change that would make a difference is that people who are mentally ill should be in the system." said Long. "There is gap between physicians and the background checking system."
Long described a time when a friend diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia attempted to buy a gun from him. He said years ago, his friend came to him to purchase a gun, but he would not sell him the gun because he knew of his friend's illness. Later, his friend ended up cutting someone and is now in prison.
"There needs to be a way that we can actually verify their health background as well when we do background checks." said Long.

With its narrow cobblestone streets, old city walls, and friendly gay scene, Quebec City seems to have everything for a magical trip. As soon as you arrive in the charming quarter known as "Old Quebec," you'll realize this city, founded in 1608 by Samuel de Champlain, is like no place else in North America. The friendly locals speak predominantly French, but in tourist areas and gay bars and restaurants you'll manage with English.
No matter what the season, there are always special events taking place in Quebec City. The summertime Festival d'Eté de Québec takes place in July, and winter's Carnaval de Quebec, takes place in January and February. For the gay community, the Fête Arc-en-ciel, known in English as the Rainbow Festival, takes place in September.
Getting here
Jean Lesage International Airport is about 12 miles northwest of downtown. There are also trains and buses between Montreal and Quebec City. If you are driving between the two cities, the journey takes about three hours.
Getting around
You'll just need your own two feet to explore Quebec City. Most sights of interest to travelers are within easy walking distance of each other. For public transportation information see "New Customer" at the website of RTC.
You'll find the city's gay scene along portions of quaint rue St-Jean, a street full of various bars, cafes and boutiques just outside the walls of the Old City.
Media and Resources
Check out Sortie, published by GLBT Quebec, for details about the local community. Fugues Magazine and their Rainbow Guide also cover Quebec City, along with other cities in the province.
Make sure to check out Xtra for news and features about Canada. To keep up with bears' events around town, see the website Soirées Bear Quebec.
GLBT Quebec is a francophone organization with information on local events. For general tourist info see the website of Bonjour Quebec, the official tourism website for the city, in French, English and other languages. QuebecRegion is another useful general site for tourists.
For locations and website links to businesses listed below, and more, see our Quebec City gay map & listings pages.
Going Out
You'll find the city's gay scene along portions of quaint rue St-Jean, a street full of various bars, cafes and boutiques just outside the walls of the Old City.

You need to have Javascript to make this site work well.
Gina: That sounds like a good way to bring in the new year!
Amber: I love potatoes. I know so many ways to make them and I just found a new favorite. Thin sliced with cheese and bacon. The dh got me hooked.
Suzanne: The nosebleeds sound promissing. Do you have any other symptoms besides the nosebleeds? And when do you test?
Christine: Glad the Zofran is helping. And you might be having twins with feeling that bad and already showing!!
Isra: Sorry the dh is getting annoyed. Maybe the metformin is helping and that's why it's making you sick! Hope we see that bfp soon!!
Brie: So glad to hear you and Layla are doing good! And yay on a new computer. I need one too but I'm just gunna use the dh's. My dh would probably do the same thing. He told me when we got married that since we are officially married he didn't want to use condoms anymore. Guys are really sensitive it seems.
Nicole: I did have the start of a good morning. My civilian boss was making cash bets on when I would get pregnant. Since the first day I started working there he has been telling me that I am next to get pregnant. This man gives me the creeps and my co-worker that is pregnant just told me that he is making advances on her and I saw it this morning. I told her to report him and she said that she would. If she doesn't I will the next time he says that I'm next. I don't know why it upsets me but it does.
Tammy: Sorry about the bfn. We are all here for you and I'm also sorry about you and the dh. I hope things work themselves out soon!!
Tara: I'm not sure if that cyst was O or not. I had no cm or anything. It was just painful. I'm supposed to start Friday/Saturday so we will see. If I don't start Friday I will test Saturday morning.
Afm: This past week and a half has been so busy! The dh and I went bed shopping. We didn't know the bed we bought a year ago was used so now the dh and I are having back problems and trouble sleeping. We should get the new bed this weekend. Then work. I have been reading the entire shift and coming home and just conking out as soon as my head hits the pillow. I feel bad because I don't even know if the dh is trying to talk to me or not and I don't even remember falling asleep. I've also been having small nosebleeds. I will just get that copper/metallic taste in my mouth and smell it then blow my nose and there will be a little blood then it will be clear but the smell stays for a while. It's been happening off and on for the past 2 weeks. Well I have to get lunch started for the dh. You ladies have a good afternoon!!
The dh just told me to stop looking at houses and apartments off base. He wants to move on base. There is a list a mile long to move on base!
Alix- Hope that you can find somwhere new that you like! Nosebleeds, hmmmm could be a good thing or just the dry air.
Brie- Ooh that's a good growing girl! Go Layla, grow!
AFM- Still nothing. Pretty nervous that something will start up. Minor cramping off and on, but nothing AF worthy.
Tara!! This cycle is sounding so promisisng for you! Ive got my fx'd that AF stays far far away!
Tara: Let's hope that af will stay away and you get that bfp!! Kmfc for ya!! The air here isn't dry. It's really cold but it's Louisiana so we have the humidity no matter what type of day it is and it's been raining off and on this week. The dh said that they have 3 and 4 bedrooms to pick from and the base will move our stuff if we want them to. So it's starting to look like a good idea. The only thing is we will lose half of his paycheck if we move on base. We really need the money but he really wants to move to a house now. I think his possible upcoming deployment is scaring him and he wants to know his friends are closer to me while he is away.
Afm: I just did a little bit of clean up in the living room and started the puzzle the dh wanted me to start for him. He doesn't like to put the edges together or seperate the colors so he leaves that for me. I still have a lot of cleaning to do but I will do that tomorrow when the dh leaves for work while I do laundry. That's another reason the dh wants to move on base. All houses come with washer and dryer hook up. We just have to get the washer and dryer. You ladies have a good night. I'm gunna pick up a little more then get ready for work. It feels like it's 2am when it's only 8:30. This getting darker sooner is throwing me off haha.
Amber- Thanks! Hope you are doing well!
Alix- That doesn't sound like a half bad deal! I didn't realize you're in LA. That makes sense then.
Tara: Yea the more the dh researches the houses the more he wants to move and put us on the wait list. LA is a really weird state. I've been here for 3 1/2 years and the weather still throws me off.
Alix: All my symptoms are as follows; nausea is big numero uno, my breasts have swollen a full two inches ( I keep track of my measurements since I am an aspiring fashion designer so I keep track of everything), bloating the last two weeks (af was supposed to start two days ago but still hasn't shown up so hopefully she just stays away), fatigue, lower abdominal cramping that is rather uncomfy but not unbearable like usual cramps are for me, frequent bathroom breaks, my hair seems to be getting thicker (i've noticed new growth on my scalp) and my hair is usually really thin, my legs seem to be having blood pressure issues (going to be getting checked out soon. I lost use of my legs when I was in premature labor with my daughter, the contractions immobolized me from the waist down, so I have to worry about that till the docs tell me it's nothing to worry about.) headaches, lower back pain when I lay down trying to sleep and my stomach is getting tough. I think that is all of them, if I can think of anything else.
I would catch up more if it weren't for me being exhausted. Just know, ladies, that I read it all <3

Senate addresses high school graduation requirements
Sunnyvale High School students are required to earn 24 credits to graduate under the minimum program. - Zach Markovic/Staff Photo
By Bill Conrad,
Published: Thursday, February 21, 2013 7:14 PM CST
A bill altering high school graduation requirements was approved by a state Senate committee Tuesday and will now be heard by the whole body at a future date.
Rep. Dan Patrick (R-Houston) authored S.B. 3, which would increase the minimum number of credits required for graduation, but does not address assessment tests, which are expected to be addressed later in the legislative session.
"There has been a question from some about [whether] we [are] stepping back on rigor and accountability," Patrick said during a Feb. 12 committee meeting. "Absolutely not; we are stepping up. We are asking more of our students. We are asking our students to be competitive."
State law requires students get at least 22 credits under the minimum graduation plan, although some school districts require more and others don't offer the plan at all. The other two existing graduation plans, recommended and distinguished, require at least 26 credits for graduation, although some districts, such as Celina ISD (28), require more. Patrick's bill would eliminate all three in favor of a single diploma option - dubbed the foundation diploma - which would require 26 credits.
In addition, students would be able to receive endorsements in either business or industry, academic achievement in arts and humanities or science and math, or distinguished. These endorsements would allow students more input in the classes they take, said Sen. Ken Paxton (R-McKinney).
"For years we have been hearing concerns about the need for more options in high school curriculum to ensure that graduates are equipped with the skills necessary to meet the changing demands of today's workplace, particularly in the areas of business, science, technology, engineering and vocational trades," Paxton said via email. "And we have heard from parents and students about the need for more flexibility in school curriculum requirements so that they can tailor coursework to better meet their long-term academic and career objectives. The Legislature is working to respond to those needs."
In addition to requiring four additional credits for graduation, the bill would also require two credits in foreign language, up from zero under the current minimum graduation plan. A third science class will also be required, up from two.
The minimum graduation plan, as currently designed, requires parental approval since students who graduate under the plan are not eligible to attend a four-year college or university. That would not be the case under the foundation diploma, something Sen. Royce West (D-Dallas) spoke about at Tuesday's committee meeting.
"In North Central Texas 80 percent of the kids [receive at least] the recommended, while 20 percent of the kids get the minimum diploma right now," he said, adding that the basic foundation diploma is very similar to the current recommended diploma. "I want to make sure as we move down this path that that doesn't happen. When you look at the 20 percent that have the minimum diploma, [a lot of them] are ethnic minorities who don't have the basic requirements to be college-ready."
The bill passed out of committee with a 7-0 vote, with Sens. West and Leticia Van de Putte abstaining. Both senators said they supported the bill but wanted to wait and see how the standardized testing issue is resolved before casting votes.

Most governments overhaul gross domestic product calculations every few years to include changes in output and consumption, such as mobile phones and the Internet. Since Nigeria has not done so since 1990, analysts expect a large jump in nominal GDP during the second quarter.
Africa's second biggest economy should then post GDP of around $370 billion, up from a current IMF estimate of $270 billion and just $20 billion shy of South Africa in dollar terms.
Economists tip Nigeria to take the top spot in the near future by keeping up its steady rate of economic growth.
"The rebasing exercise is unlikely to increase the pace of growth unless becoming the largest economy in sub-Saharan Africa generates new foreign direct investment," said Nema Ramkhelawan-Bhana, Africa analyst at Rand Merchant Bank.
The poll of 11 analysts shows growth in Africa's most populous nation slowing to 7.0 percent this year from 7.4 in 2011, and then reaching 7.1 percent in 2013 as disruptions to oil production put a slight dampener on growth.
That looks more optimistic than government expectations for growth to slow to 6.5 percent this year. Nigeria's economy grew 6.17 percent in the first quarter of this year, down from 7.68 percent in the previous quarter.
With South African annual growth seen at around half that, Nigeria could be ahead in just a few years.
Investors are eyeing the 140 million population closely, looking to explore opportunities in a number of sectors such as retail and telecommunications.
Wal-Mart, the world's biggest retailer, last year spent $2.4 billion on a majority stake in South Africa's Massmart, a discounter with a growing presence on the continent, and now scoping for 20 stores in Nigeria.
Oil production meanwhile fell to an average of 2.35 million barrels a day (bpd) in the first quarter of 2012, from 2.4 million bpd in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Despite the growing wealth in the nation there is a still a huge rich-poor divide, which will remain a fact after the changes to GDP calculations.
"While the increase in nominal GDP will improve the country's income classification, it will do little to reduce income inequality," Ramkhelawan-Bhana said.
Analysts project inflation to remain stubbornly above double digits - this year it should average 12.6 percent and then slow to 10.5 percent in 2013.
"We expect it to remain around current levels into early 2012, before picking up modestly in the middle of 2012 to around 13 percent before easing in the second half and into 2013," said David Cowan, economist at Citi.
A poll conducted last month on the naira showed that the currency would hold steady but the threat of rising inflation could hamper this.
The naira has lost almost a percent since the start of the month after inflation rose to 12.9 percent in April year-on-year from 12.1 percent in May, driven by non-food items.
Analysts also attribute the naira's recent weakness to a fall in confidence in the local currency, a flight to safety by risk averse investors and poor fiscal management.
A solution to this could be a Sovereign Wealth Fund which Central Bank governor Lamido Sanusi has been punting for.
"The effective launch of the Sovereign Wealth Fund and more fiscal restraint at the federally consolidated level would certainly contribute to such a turnaround," said Samir Gadio, emerging markets strategist at Standard Bank. - Reuters
Nigeria's grip on inflation rate is becoming consistent at third quarter with a single digit at 9.3 percent, and with an impressive economic growth rate at 7.72 percent in August. So far a significant development and good track record is brewing, for at the beginning of third quarter inflation rate was 9.4 percent in July, and the latest recorded 9.3 percent shows a slightly declining inflationary trend.
But looking at the country's misery indicators intrinsically – overwhelming poverty and crushing unemployment; these fabulous numbers are not making impact to the suffering masses that are without jobs and are etching out a living with less than two dollars per day. Economic experience by average Nigerian, who can barely feed his family three decent square meals per day cannot correlate with the economic expansion of the country's GDP. Positive economic growth should fundamentally ameliorate the misery index, lest it become senseless and insignificant to the majority of Nigerians.
Before Nigerian financial and economic policy makers beat their chest and celebrate with their talking drums they should realize that the country is not yet out from the wood. The much talked removal of oil subsidy and its implementation has not been resolved and neither the recapitalization of collapsing banks has been ceased. Let's not overlook the increasing growth in food prices, which is the biggest contributing force to the consumer inflation rate. The food inflation rose from 7.9 percent in July to 8.7 percent in August and that is not good.
With these enviable numbers on inflation and GDP rolling out from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), the life style and economic well-being of 70 percent of Nigerians are stagnant and deplorable. There is no adequate housing, the food prices are going beyond the reach of the poor while the scarcity of the expensive kerosene makes life unbearable.
Nigeria is in the midst of confidence building news on economy and one cannot downgrade it. With decreasing turmoil at the Niger Delta; oil production in the second quarter of this year is averaging 2.45 million barrels daily. This is an improvement compared to 2.35 barrels of the previous year with more turbulent Niger Delta.
Bloomberg reported that "Inflation in Nigeria, Africa's biggest oil producer, stayed near the limit of a central bank target and the economy expanded 7.72 percent in the second quarter, keeping pressure on the bank to raise interest rates. The inflation rate fell for a second month to 9.3 percent, the lowest level in more than three years, from 9.4 percent a month earlier, Yemi Kale, head of the National Bureau of Statistics told reporters today in Abuja, the capital. "Much of the improvement in headline consumer price inflation can still be explained by the positive influence of domestic food prices, and this should continue in the months ahead," Razia Khan, the London-based head of African economic research at Standard Chartered Bank Ltd., said today in an e- mailed note to clients."
Rising unemployment
The numbers on joblessness is not forth coming and the tabulations by National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) may be misleading. The last number I saw on unemployment was 19.7 percent in 2010. The National Bureau of Statistics website is not current with the unemployment figures. The last number it recorded was 40 percent unemployment in 1992. The 19.7 percent was provided by the former minister of Finance Mr. Olusegun Aganga last year. He did acknowledge that almost half of Nigerian youths at the age group of 15-25 years were without jobs.
And with the massive unemployment devouring the youths of the country it might be fastidious to peg the unemployment at an extremely conservative number of 19.7 percent.The 19.7 percent is not a realistic number when the rural unemployment is put into consideration and effectively tabulated. Even with conservative extrapolation the joblessness in the rural Nigeria where most people live will make the tendered number laughable. The low technology and paucity of technical know-how makes the collection of data cumbersome and sometimes out of reach.
Onitsha Kerosene waiting
Writing about jobs in Nigeria, Nasir El-rufai the former minister of capital territory Abuja, could not arrived at the exact unemployment figure but nevertheless he used the official numbers and also made his own realistic extrapolation. This is the way he put it, "The jobless rates in Nigeria have not fallen. On the same day but at different functions, the Minister of Trade and Investment put the unemployment rate at 14-16 per cent, while the Finance Minister put it at 21 per cent. The actual figure may be much higher than both numbers. The millions of people with no jobs represent a serious impediment to Nigeria's economic development. Apart from the immense waste of the country's human resources, it generates losses in terms of lower output which results in poorer incomes and increased poverty. It also causes social decay and inhibits national cohesion. In fact, unemployment in Nigeria is a national security threat."
He also wrote that, "Nigeria has about 90 million people who are willing and able to work, but about 70 million of them have no gainful employment. This is an alarming figure, but when the 4.7 million people captured in the formal sector in the latest statistics from the Pensions Commission is increased by the three to four times standard multiplier to capture those in the informal sector, it means that only about 20 million Nigerians have jobs, out of a population of 162 million. This simple fact causes the country a loss of about N2 trillion annually from the absence of commercial activities that ordinarily should have taken place but did not."
The lack of job is one thing that cannot be politicized for real people are suffering .Job creation must be initiated by government by creating the fertile environment that will attract capital and investments. Government does not necessary create jobs but does aid the private sector in making job creation possible and imminent. Nigeria's favorable economic indicators on economic growth and inflation can become a precursor in solving the problem of unemployment.

GUÉDIAWAYE, Senegal Aba Dione, 7 years old, met his end six weeks ago in the trash-filled corner of an abandoned dwelling here, as good a place to play as any, it seemed, when the other options were garbage and more garbage.
Except that in this case the thick carpet of crushed plastic bottles and bags, clothing shreds, old flip-flops and muck was deceptively floating on several feet of water; unknowing, Aba fell in and drowned.
Garbage might have seemed safe to the boy because it is everywhere in this forlorn, dun-colored slum abutting Dakar, the capital. Delivered on order for a few pennies a load by rickety horse-drawn carts speeding through the dirt streets of the Médina Gounass neighborhood of Guédiawaye, it is as pervasive as the hot midday sun in which it bakes. The people use it to shore up their flood-prone houses and streets in this low-lying area near the Atlantic coast; they have no choice.Garbage is a surrogate building material, a critical filler to deal with the stagnant water cheap, instantly accessible and never diminishing. The plastic-laden spillover from these foul-smelling deliveries pokes up through the sandy lots, covers the ground between the crumbling cinder-block houses, becomes grazing ground for goats, playground for barefoot, runny-nosed children and breeding ground for swarms of flies. Disease flourishes here, aid groups say: cholera, malaria, yellow fever and tuberculosis.Médina Gounass was first settled in the early 1960s by rural people flocking to the citys outskirts, people who were not educated in the culture of trash disposal, (so you literally have to teach them not to dump their trash wherever they are standing) said Fatou Sarr, a socioanthropologist at the Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, who has written about the area.
Well, I guess that building cities out of garbage is an improvement over the dung hut stage.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatogram (ERCP)
Test Overview
An endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogram (ERCP) is a test that combines the use of a flexible, lighted scope (Reference endoscope Opens New Window) with X-ray pictures to examine the tubes that drain the Reference liver Opens New Window, Reference gallbladder Opens New Window, and Reference pancreas Opens New Window.
The endoscope is inserted through the mouth and gently moved down the throat into the Reference esophagus Opens New Window, stomach, and Reference duodenum Opens New Window until it reaches the point where the ducts from the pancreas (pancreatic ducts) and gallbladder (bile ducts) drain into the duodenum.
ERCP can treat certain problems found during the test. If an abnormal growth is seen, an instrument can be inserted through the endoscope to obtain a sample of the tissue for further testing (Reference biopsy Opens New Window). If a gallstone is present in the Reference common bile duct Opens New Window, the doctor can sometimes remove the stone with instruments inserted through the endoscope. A narrowed bile duct can be opened by inserting a small wire-mesh or plastic tube (called a stent) through the endoscope and into the duct.

Carlin Springs Program to Teach Children, Families Healthy Eating Habits
Elementary school program starts next school year.
A $25,000 state grant will fund a bilingual program at Carlin Springs Elementary School designed to teach healthy eating habits to children and their families. The Healthy Meals for Healthy Families program includes weekly classes for at-risk students in the third, fourth and fifth grades at Carlin Springs.

"Don't give up what you want most for what you want now."
A constant mantra of mine is: "How bad do you want this?" In my own workout routines and nutrition goals I so easily get sidetracked. I lose motivation.
I lose perspective and drive. I become so tired. My goal might be far off in the future, but with each moment in life I must ask myself how bad I want it. Life is full of trade-offs. Some choices have effects that are not realized until much later in life while others have almost instant results.
The problem that we face in life is that we want it all. We do not like making choices, especially when those choices avoid instant gratification. It is easier to think short term than long term. Keeping options open allows you room to breathe. The problem is we cannot have it all. Having it all leads to frustration and disappointment. I encourage you to be confident in your decisions, to appreciate the trade-off. When it comes to exercise there are several things to consider about exercise.
Time. Exercise takes time. There are limited hours in a day and time can become scarce. Time spent exercising can mean less time spent on work, school, family, television, children, or a fun night out. Time is the ultimate trade-off. The bright side is contrary to what you might think exercise can help increase productivity, help you live longer, and reduce your health care costs.
Increase productivity. Adding exercise to your daily routine can add a sense of accomplishment and give you more energy. A recent study by the University of Georgia concluded that a low intensity exercise routine like a 20-minute walk can increase energy levels by 20 percent and reduce the feeling of fatigue by 65 percent.
Live longer. Staying physically active can help increase longevity. As little as 120 minutes of exercise a week can add 4 years to one's life. The University of Michigan found that women who were physically active and ate fruits and vegetables in the diet survived longer than those who did not. Regular exercise into the golden years can also increase the quality of life. Older adults who exercise are happier and reduce the likeliness of developing Alzheimer's and other cognitive diseases.
Reduce health and prescription costs. It is estimated that $130 billion a year is spent on health care costs related to inactivity and obesity. What is your share of that number? How much do you spend on weight related diseases like high blood pressure, diabetes medication, heart disease? Increasing activity along with changing your diet can reduce or eliminate the need for certain prescriptions and other related health care costs.
Contrary to what you might think exercise can increase productivity, help you live longer, and reduce health and prescription costs. Are you willing to make time for exercise? Make the trade off? Don't give up what you want most for what you want now.

"Break out your soup pot and fix up a batch of this delicious, spicy vegetarian chili today! It's ready in no time, and packed with vegetables, beans - and flavor!" — calead910
Watch video tips and tricks
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 tablespoon salt
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 green bell peppers, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chile peppers, drained
2 (12 ounce) packages vegetarian burger crumbles
3 (28 ounce) cans whole peeled tomatoes, crushed
1/4 cup chili powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can black beans
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn
Hi everyone this is my recipe! Thanks for all the great reviews however they have made a misprint in the submission. It should read 3 large cans of whole tomatoes, crushed by hand NOT 3 tomatoes, that would make this very spicy as well as very thick. I don't remember if I wrote this part as well, but I usually drain the 2 cans of beans, and I leave the liquid of the rem. cans. Luckily not many have been effected by the mistake. thanks again.
I understand that this says "spicy" in the description, but I think that's an understatement. I found this to be WAY too spicy. I think that the spiciness overshadowed the other flavors. I served this to my family and no one was able to make it past 1/5 of the bowl, including myself, because it was just too spicy. It would be good if you cut out 90% of the chili powder & used 1 or less Jalapeno.

Excellent chili. Just a note to cooks who are worried about sodium intake. In response to previous posters, the liquid beans are canned in is very high in sodium. Canned beans should always be drained and rinsed for a healthier meal.
I LOVED this recipe! I did find however that I had to almost double the amount of chili powder and cumin. Just kind of taste and add till you get it where you really love it. I used Original Boca Burgers that I broke up into little pieces, and like so many other reviewers, no one could tell it wasn't meat! It is, however, very important to break the Boca Burgers up into tiny pieces, otherwise, if you leave big chunks I think you can taste a little difference. This does make a huge amount. I think it would easily feed 10 or 12....especially if you were to put it over rice and serve with maybe some grated cheddar, sour cream and chopped avacados.....chopped onions would be good too!!
This is a great recipe. I added 1 zuchini, 1 red bell pepper, 1 can pinto beans, 1 bag of frozen corn (we like it better than canned), and 1 can tomato paste (I drained my beans and added water; plus I like a tomato based chili). I also added a few splashes of tobasco sauce, I think my chili powder must have been milder than others because we did not have enough spice. I reccommend using the whole stewed tomatoes because they have a thicker consistency. You can use your kitchen scissors and cut them up while they are still in the can. I think I will add a can of white beans next time. There really is a lot of the veggie meat and I like a fair amount of beans. I froze the chili in individual containers and made corn bread muffins and froze those too. We were able to have several chili/muffin lunches. Thanks for the great recipe Cal :)
I was a little confused - ground oregano or leaf? (I ended up using the latter, because I had more of it.) Couldn't much drain the chile peppers, and I wondered whether to drain the beans (don't). Turned out very well, beautiful, though I might use a little less chili powder next time (and I used a skimpy 1/4 cup). Also used only 1 jalepeno - it was plenty spicy tonight, and will be spicier tomorrow. I used about a teaspoon of salt instead of a tablespoon and it was enough. Modifying review to add my experience cooking it in a slow cooker... I prepared the veggies (onion, garlic, green pepper, celery) as instructed, and then transferred them to the slow cooker before throwing in the rest of the ingredients except for the corn. I cooked on high for a couple hours and added the corn about an hour before the end and turned my cooker down to low at the same time (about 3 hours in the slow cooker in all). It turned out brilliantly. I was worried the veggie crumbles might get rubbery, but they did not, and the spices were mellower but still very tasty. Huge hit at the office, even though they are all meateaters.
What great chili for a snowy day in Wisconsin! Loved this a lot. Made as is except drained and rinsed all the beans to make them less salty and then added a bit of water. Thanks for sharing this yummy, healthy recipe.
went almost totally by the recipe...except used about 1 1/2 packages of the crumbles instead of 2, and i let simmer for @ 2 hours...THE BEST VEGGIE CHILI EVER...THANKS...by the way, this makes a HUGE POT...but youll be happy to have the left overs, as it does get better by the day

Judge Charles R. Brett set bond for Justin Ware, 18, at $20,000 and for Lavoris Cayson, 19, at $50,000.
Brett set Cayson's bond higher because Cayson is currently out on bond for burglarizing automobiles.
They were both charged with two counts of auto burglary and one count of theft of an auto in connection with auto burglaries in the North Gloster Street and Barnes Crossing area.

Obama Calls for Sweeping New Gun Laws Setting the stage for what could be the most sweeping political battle over gun control in decades, President Obama today laid out a comprehensive package for reducing gun violence in America, a multi-part plan he says will not only "help prevent mass shootings" but also "reduce the broader epidemic of gun violence in this country." Speaking to an audience that included family members of those killed a month ago in the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School, as well as children who wrote to Mr. Obama in the wake of recent episodes of mass violence, the president acknowledged the difficulties of pursuing stricter legislation on gun laws, but argued that he would use "whatever weight this office holds" to achieve his goals. "Because while there is no law or set of laws that can prevent every senseless act of violence completely, no piece of legislation that will prevent every tragedy, every act of evil, if there's even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there's even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try," he said. "This is our first task as a society: Keeping our children safe. This is how we will be judged. And their voices should compel us to change." The president, who was accompanied by Vice President Biden onstage, outlined a series of steps both political and administrative he says would limit access to guns and certain types of ammunition, make mental health care more attainable, and increase federal funds for both research and law enforcement. Among the initiatives outlined in Mr. Obama's plan include universal background checks for gun sales, the reinstatement and strengthening of the assault weapons ban, capping ammunition magazines to a 10-round limit, banning armor-piercing ammunition, providing schools with resource officers and school counselors, putting more police officers on the streets, creating serious punishments for gun trafficking, and ensuring that health insurance plans cover mental health benefits. The president also outlined a series of 23 executive actions he can take without congressional approval, including measures aimed at making federal background check data widely available, accessible, and maximally effective; staying ahead of the curve on the newest gun safety measures; tracing seized guns and ensuring they don't go back into the hands of dangerous gun owners; making sure schools and other institutions are equipped and prepared for the possibility of shooter situations; aggressively prosecuting gun crime; and improving mental health resources and discourse. Immediately after his remarks, Mr. Obama signed a directive giving law enforcement, schools, mental health professionals and the public health community additional tools for reducing gun violence. But he argued the possibilities for change would be limited barring the active participation of the voting public. "I will put everything I've got into this -- and so will Joe -- but I tell you, the only way we can change is if the American people demand it," Mr. Obama said. "We're going to need voices in those areas and those congressional districts where the tradition of gun ownership is strong to speak up and to say this is important. It can't just be the usual suspects. We have to examine ourselves in our hearts, and ask yourselves what is important?"
