The theme of the 2013 poster contest is
'Healthy Food Systems'
What is a food system?
Food systems are how we grow, process, package, transport, store, market, purchase and eat our food.
If we are not careful, our food systems can be harmful to the environment. Food systems use a lot of water, create harmful greenhouse gases, and ultimately affect every plant and animal on the planet.
The total population on Earth is expected to hit 9 billion by 2050. To feed everyone, food production will have to increase dramatically.
We believe that it is possible to do this without harming the environment, and in a way that gives poor farmers a fair return for their efforts. But food systems will have to change for the better. We will need new methods and technologies in all parts of the food system. Food shoppers will need to learn more about how their habits and choices affect farmers, and the environment.
Each of us has the power to help change our food systems. By eating nutritious food and reducing the amount of waste we create, we can help make our food systems more sustainable.
Food systems connect us all. Let's be part of a worldwide change that leads to a healthy future – for ourselves and for our planet.

About the theme
"Healthy Food Systems"
Here are some frequently asked questions about this year's World Food Day poster design contest. (TIP for teachers: very useful for classroom discussion.)
(NOTE: younger readers may need help from parents or teachers.)
Q. What are food systems?
Any process that involves the production and consumption of food is a part of a food system. This includes planting, harvesting, processing, packaging, transport, marketing, purchasing, storing and eating. Jobs, money, electricity and nutrition are also parts of the system.
To find out more, please visit the World Food Day homepage where basic information is already available. More will be added in the weeks to come.
Q. Why are we focusing on sustainable food systems?
Total world population is expected to hit 9 billion by 2050. To make sure everyone has enough to eat, we will need to rethink our food systems. We want to reduce the impact of food systems on the natural environment, because food production today produces a lot of greenhouse gases, puts a strain on water supplies, and creates a threat to biodiversity. We need to understand better how food shopping choices affect poor farmers in other parts of the world. And we will need to learn how to waste less food – in transport, in storage, in supermarkets, and at home.
Q. How many people are going hungry?
Latest FAO estimates show that about 870 million people worldwide live in a state of daily hunger. The good news is that many people and organizations and governments are now energized by the goal of ending hunger in our lifetime.
You can join the EndingHunger movement, too.

Most serious identity thieves are strangers -- not relatives or friends -- and a surprising number of them are women, a new study has found.
For the first time, researchers have been given a peek into Secret Service case files on identity theft. A working group called the Economic Crime Institute, based at Utica College, was recently allowed to study a set of identity theft case files from U.S. Secret Service records from 2000 through 2006. The group's findings provide a first-ever, soup-to-nuts look at the criminals and victims in major identity theft cases.
Among the results, which were released Monday:
• Only 8 percent of criminals were friends or relatives of the victims. That finding flies in the face of prior research indicating that a large portion of ID theft crimes -- perhaps as many as half -- are committed by people close to the victim.
• In another surprise, 36 percent of identity theft crimes in Secret Service cases were committed by women. That's a much more equal gender split that most other crimes.
• A high percentage of ID thefts were committed using fairly high-tech means, such as stealing databases from companies. In fact, 34 percent of the time, data used in the crime was stolen by a company employee, most often from a retail company.
• In only 9 percent of the cases studies, old-fashioned mail theft was the culprit, another finding that varies from other studies.
"Some of this does challenge conventional wisdom," said Gary Gordon, executive director of the institute." "Other studies report you (often) know who the person is that committed the crime. This study didn't find that."
The research provided new elements that will help law enforcement agencies develop a character sketch of the typical identity criminal. For example, while the research found a large number of female thieves, many of those were part of husband-and-wife or boyfriend-girlfriend teams, said researcher Don Rebovich, a professor at Utica.
"In one case, we had a couple who went from hotel room to hotel room, bringing all their equipment with them to make fake IDs and so on," Rebovich said. "When law enforcement asked them where they were going, they said, 'Disneyland.' "
The average loss for each crime was more than $30,000, much larger than the average loss in earlier studies. In one case, criminals stole $1.3 million before arrested by federal authorities.
"If I had to use one word to describe (criminals) in these cases, I would say resourceful," Rebovich said. "They look for gaps in the system."
While providing much more detail than previous identity theft studies, the data may not be a representative sample of identity theft, as it only included about 700 case files shared by the Secret Service. The group decided to omit so-called "existing account" fraud case files from its research, also called "credit-card only" identity theft.
Secret Service data 'homogeneous'
James Van Dyke, who for several years has run the nation's largest ID theft study for California-based consulting firm Javelin Strategy & Research, said the results don't necessarily contradict research he's done which shows that many ID theft victims know their imposters.
"Their data comes from a small minority of what are likely to be homogenous cases," Van Dyke said. "The cases the Secret Service get are a narrow slice of crimes, typically over $100,000 (in theft)."
Bigger-ticket crimes are likely committed by more professional thieves who are strangers, he said. But more garden-variety identity thefts are committed by roommates, family members, and friends, he said.
"If (the criminal) is a family member, there's only so much you can do before the crime is exposed," he said.
In Javelin's study, of victims who knew how the crime was committed, about half knew the criminal. In most of those cases, high-tech data theft is not a factor, as roommates can easily steal identifying information with a passing glance at monthly bills.
The distinction between his results and the Utica study's conclusion that the Internet and other high-tech tools were used in about 50 percent of ID theft cases is important to industry groups and law enforcement. If new research finds that data theft and "stranger" ID theft are more common, there would likely be more pressure on companies to protect customer data and other personal information. But if ID theft can be blamed on personal relationships, at least some of problem could be blamed on consumers, helping companies escape some scrutiny. That in turn could also influence pending federal legislation designed to rein in identity theft.
Other surprising findings from the study: A large number of crimes were discovered and reported by unrelated parties. In one case, an ambulance worker noticed multiple forms of identity on a patient being transported to the hospital and reported it. The patient was later arrested. Other criminals were reported by co-workers.
Many consumers might not think to report a co-worker or stranger for having multiple ID cards in multiple names, but such a "neighborhood watch" mentality would help law enforcement combat the crime, Rebovich said.
The Economic Crime Institute, founded in 1988 at Utica College includes board members from both government and private industry, including Visa USA, LexisNexus, and JP Morgan Chase, as well as the U.S. Justice Department and the IRS.
The group's study of Secret Service files is ongoing, Gordon said.
The average ID theft cases takes two years to complete, so there were very few closed cases later than 2004, he said. The number of open Secret Service ID theft cases doubled from 2006-2007, however.
"We will have a lot more to research," Gordon said.

TeleVue Plossl 8.0mm eyepieces have won praise and patents, including a patent in Japan. Tele Vue Plössl 8.0 eyepieces, designed by Al Nagler, have been a recognized benchmark of performance and value in the class of 50 degree apparent field of view eyepieces. While the TeleVue Plössl 8 mm eyepieces may be Tele Vue least expensive eyepiece line, they still enjoy the same care and attention to detail as our most expensive.
Diffraction limited "on-axis" performance is a given. Using more expensive high-index glasses to reduce astigmatism and lateral color at the field's edge, TeleVue Plossl eyepieces deliver unusual sharp images. The faster the focal ratio of your telescope, the greater your visual reward for using TeleVue eyepieces. Tele Vue Plössl eyepieces feature full multicoatings for greatest light transmission and contrast. Blackened lens edges and internal anti-reflection threads tweak the last bit of contrast for maximum image detail. The sharper field focuses faint star light into perceptible points and allows those with undriven mounts to gaze longer before repositioning the image.
The TeleVue Plossl EAP 25mm, 20mm, 15mm, 11mm and 8mm Tele Vue Plossl eyepieces round out the focal lengths for various observing from deep sky to planetary. They work best with Tele Vue Powermates to effectively double the number of focal lengths in your collection. Far superior to eyepieces usually provided as standard with most instruments.

ASUS today announced that the ASUS GeForce GTX Titan graphics card has established four new 3DMark world records, supervised by in-house ROG overclocking experts Andre Yang and Shamino. The ASUS GeForce GTX Titan is the most powerful single-GPU graphics card currently available, as demonstrated with record-breaking 3DMark11 scores of 36658 marks in the Entry preset, 37263 marks in the Performance preset, and 22076 marks in the Extreme preset. It has also set a world record of 21818 in 3DMark Fire Strike, the latest and most demanding benchmark from Futuremark. ROG overclocking expert Andre Yang set the new 3DMark11 records using liquid nitrogen-cooled ASUS GeForce GTX Titan cards in a four-way NVIDIA SLI configuration with an ROG Rampage IV Extreme motherboard and an Intel Core i7-3970X processor. Additional information on these world records and the configurations used can be found here. The 3DMark Fire Strike world record was achieved by Andre Yang and fellow ROG team member and overclocker Shamino using two ASUS GeForce GTX Titan cards in NVIDIA SLI. This achievement also used an ROG Rampage IV Extreme motherboard and an Intel Core i7-3970X processor. About the ASUS GeForce GTX Titan The ASUS GeForce GTX Titan has a dual-slot design with a full NVIDIA Kepler GPU — a GPU previously reserved for supercomputer applications. It features 2688 CUDA cores and a 384-bit memory interface for its 6GB GDDR5 video memory, clocked at 6000MHz. The ASUS GeForce GTX Titan is DirectX 11.1 compatible, and can easily run the latest PC games in resoutions of 2560 x 1600 and above.
These things are always misleading to the layperson. They are not normal Titans. They'll be volt modded and power modded with hardware and the BIOS will be customised. Most Titans hit the 300Watt limit around 1200-1300 MHz going from what I've seen on the Overclock forums. I know all the professionals do the same to all the top cards but it's still a tad unrealistic. It'd be nice if the full customisation of the card was given out. You know, so we could all try it...not.
It's a shlong measuring competition for companies, merely Asus saying they paid someone well enough to go through all the effort to do this with their card and not someone else's. Marketing stunt for the extreme layperson to see big numbers on a shiny card and buy Asus's over any other brand. Nothing else really seperates them.
You can clearly see that Asus has done an amazing job with their unique GTX TITAN thanks to NVIDIA that allow such changes to it's PCB. This is clearly Asus's own victory. [/sad-sarcasm]
whats wrong.... Whats wrong is having Andre and Kingpin on the same team... here is the setup... http://hwbot.org/submission/2371459 Titan power mods are a bit crazier as their vrms are pathetic... They use additional boards of vrms to replace the stock ones... For those who can't click a link.... cough person below me....
Not impressive at all. Who cares about Liquid Nitrogen cooled records. It has absolutely zero real-world impact. When it can do that on a Fan or standard Watercooling Block, then tell us.
It is impressive in its own way. No you can't run your computer like this 24/7... But you also probably can't redesign the voltage circuitry to enable such craziness as this... But since you can't be impressed by redesigning hardware... here h20 is in spot 2... http://hwbot.org/submission/2371384..._performance_4x_geforce_gtx_titan_35228_marks
Yes, for sure. But there are many of us that would like overclocking to remain something that is for the public, not something that is overshadowed by a bunch of guys working at ASUS, Gigabyte, and similar companies. They always populate the top 10 of global clock records, and have for many many years. Records are meant to be broken, for sure, but I'd like to see real users breaking them rather than guys with access to endless hardware. What's different here, and what I applaud ASUS for, is directly stating that these guys are under their employment.
I cant read a damn thing on those pictures...please repost with something someone can read if you can! In the meantime I will go to Hwbot and check there. How is this misleading anyone? One can clearly see the mods done even with one eye... One can also find how to do the power zombie mods and hard mods if your google foo is up to par. IMO part of the reason you may feel mislead is that the 'news thread' doesnt mention anything about how it was done outside of the cooling (there is a link though!). That said, its not really his responsibility either. One doesnt see a Honda Civic 1/4 mile time under 10 seconds and think its anywhere near stock either so a bit of a leap of faith(using your head) is needed too.
That is probably one of the reasons why hwbot separates the leagues the way they do. That said I am competing in the current pro overclock cup against these guys. Keep in mind the guys got hired because they set world records on their own.
I've been around the OC scene since 2003(that I will admit). These guys have nearly ALWAYS worked at ASUS(or similar), Andre and Shamino specifically. Well, Shamino went to EVGA for some time, but Andre was involved in quite the scandal on the OC scene some years ago, running benchmarks for friends to use to win competitions. I have ZERO respect for that guy. Proof: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?256007-Andre-Yang-Lifetime-Ban There's no pulling the wool over these here eyes, let me tell you. That episode is what had me leave the hardcore OC scene. What's the point in competing if others are cheating? that's why they have their own ranking now. I've got as high as 53rd in HWBOT long ago, check XS forums and you'll find tonnes of my benchmarks, post after post after post, me only. Not saying htat is the case now, but bitter tastes fill my mouth on a regular basis when it comes to this type of OC.
ANdre and Shammy have only been hired guns for a couple years... Like 4 maybe? Whats the point in doing reviews if people are pencil whipping them (there are a lot doing that..)? It has nothing to do with you. If you cant do it for fun, then I understand. Sorry that took the wind out of your sails, but I could give two shits what the top people are doing as even though I am recently into my own LN2, they dont bother me. I dunno, just me... I can see it being disheartening but I wont take my ball and go home over it, forever.
+1, you are right. I chose to become a spectator, cheering for my favorites instead. Shamino is one of those, as are Vince and crew. Of course, there are those that I don't cheer for, too. These guys do stuff no one else will, and it's awesome to see. We won't ever see you chopping off the VRM from a 7970 Matrix to feed Titan, now will we? But their scores should never have any part in any ranking, anywhere that the public can also join in on, and that's my opinion that will never change. I'm not saying I'm right here, that's just how I feel, and my feelings are based on real events. Futuremark needs a "manufacturer ranking" section.
... that was him... wow... that's...sad. I remember reading that but names don't always stick so well for me. I have always been crazy into overclocking but not so much benchmarking. Someone just happened to tip me off that I probably had a WR rig in my hands so I made it official. Another note... Andre said he would be sitting this competition out... Given his past I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
Meh, he made a mistake. He apologized, and I think he is sincere. But I will not forget, since I spent $1000's, literal thousands chasing scores of these guys, only to run into this stuff. I complained about it before it was public, then proof was found(although I had NOTHING to do with that). Shit happens, me complaining about stuff long before anyone else has been my story for years.
Meh, it's like finding out that Anand is only like 30 or 31 now, and started Anandtech when he was 14 (in 1997) is shocking to many too. Oh, you didn't know? He's pretty open about that, honestly, posted in the "about" of his website. Just something that has come up recently in my little circle of daily people I talk to.
I have the(a) zombie board...but I don't want to afford another $1k card. ... so I think you are right in that specific context. They are on top of the, what I am assuming are Tek 9 fat pots. It helps for LN2 pouring.
For those who don't get how much work and preparation go into high level competitive benching > I am sorry but you just won't get it... If you are complaining about this not being air or water results, why aren't you searching HW for that info (as it certainly wouldn't be new ) This is to computers like top fuel drag car or funny car as your standard computer is to a camry and notebook to a geo metro / honda civic. The only real world application this has is to show what is possible, when today's tech is pushed to the limits. And it is a way for friends to compete with one another in their shared field of interest. And if you want to watch the benching, you can sometimes view it via livestream - but it will likely be very long and very boring And most of the overclockers working for companies started out like anyone else. just tinkering around, it became a hobby, it turned into more than a hobby, companies were impressed enough with talent and ability to bring them on. Anyone has a chance to have something like that happen
And you and I are usually there(although I do not use this UID, very interesting to see how using a different UID gets me so much more info and help). That's when you can ask real questions and get real answers. Although I see Vince smashing stuff in anger more often than answering questions. And for the time we've both spent watching I don't think it can really be THAT boring. I've been offered flights to Taipei on a couple of occasions now, so maybe you are right in that regard. And you've gotta prove yourself in order to get recognized. But I feel that OEMs need to get out of it so that more users get their chance in the light. And I'm not complaining because I want any of that....I think there are many users out there with some serious skills that just don't bother because of how things are. And you are right, there's tonnes of prep and work that goes into this stuff.

text: K-12 knowledge refers to the primary and secondary knowledge that a student acquires during his schooling. K-12 knowledge is a shortened phrase used for knowledge from pre-school to 12th. The phrase K-12 knowledge is relatively new to India and is generally more commonly used in western nations like United States of America, Canada etc and in areas of Australia. With technology transcending boundaries, the phrase K-12 knowledge is fast becoming more popular in other areas of the world as well, with minor/ no modifications. In some nations the phrase has been replaced with PK-12 or P-12 that means prekindergarten to 12th or toddler to 12th. Whatever nomenclature any country switches into, the concept of K-12 knowledge primarily moves around the training and learning imparted in the school.

Seriously, people, download Universal Hall Pass's "Dragonfly (Symbion Project Remix)" as quickly as humanly possible. One, the song is beautiful and funky and unique, and two, it as close as I will get to having my favorite band of all-time, Splashdown, in Rock Band. (For the uninitiated, Splashdown was Melissa Kaplan, who is now Universal Hall Pass and has an incredible voice- she's done plenty of movie and video game scores, including the Assassin's Creed games; Kasson Crooker, who is now Symbion Project and was The Duke in Freezepop; and Adam Buhler, who is now in Anarchy Club.) I am listening to the track (on UHP's brilliant EP, Subtle Things) as I type this, and I can't wait to play it in RB.
Viva Splashdown, the best band my ears will ever have the pleasure of hearing.
39th song:
Chaunce DeLeon and The Fountain of Choof - "Tadpole Search and Rescue" | Rock/Arena | 2009 | TheAuthority | [No Video Available]
Difficulties: Guitar - 3, Bass - 3, Drums - 3, Vocals - 3, Band - 3
Amberian Dawn is must buy for me. I love the opera vocals mixed in with metal. I dont know if this has been asked but will the RBN store be updated once a week just like the regular store?
I THINK I read that they can put up to 10 songs a day for the RBN store.
In the interview the head of MTV games(but again he might not know all the specific details), said that when RBN store launches it will have a couple hundred songs at launch.
Don't know if he meant all at once, or over a short period of time.
I'm pretty sure you're just misinterpreting the quote that states, "Before the Rock Band Network, [Harmonix] could only put out about 10 songs a week."
This meant that on average, there were only 10 songs a week. It was not new information. When it was first said, though, people were flipping out, saying, "OH GOD WE'LL NEVER HAVE FULL ALBUMS AGAIN BECAUSE THEY HAVE MORE THAN 10 SONGS!" and things like that.
That's the only "ten-song" thing I remember reading.

CICERO -- Cicero Police are warning the public to be cautious about a suspicious offer for free airfare and discounted travel.Neighbors in Cicero have been receiving postcards in the mail that look like they are from Jet Blue Airways. The postcards offer two free round trip airfares to anywhere in the U.S. but they are not from Jet Blue. When neighbors call a number on the card to to accept they are given an appointment to meet with a company known as Blue Water.
Blue Water has set up inside a the conference center at the Comfort Suites in Cicero. Cicero Police Chief Joseph Snell says the sales pitch you receive at your appointment is very suspicious. Snell says he knows because he thought the postcard was strange and went to an appointment Wednesday night Couples who received invitations were given an elaborate presentation about discount vacations and travel deals they could get if they paid for an expensive membership. Snell did a some research before going to the appointment he made and found that a company called Blue Water Travel had also offered memberships and big discounts in exclusive presentations until the owner was arrested by police in New Jersey and accused of taking more than $75,000 for travel packages that were never provided. The police chief says he questioned presenters about their business setup but couldn't get any clear answers. After he was escorted outside, Snell decided to put a post on the Cicero Police Facebook page warning people about what he says was a sophisticated but extremely suspicious presentation.
"I'm not saying these people are doing anything illegal but people need to do a lot of research before they turn a lot of money over to these travel clubs or organizations. They need to understand what they're getting involved in. They need to ask the questions because at face value they look really good."
With the help of someone else was invited on Wednesday night CNYCentral caught up with two people he says were part of the Blue Water presentation. The first man claimed he was at the Comfort Inn for a wedding and denied being involved with the travel company. Another man who said his name was Tab Ferguson said the Blue Water company making presentations in Cicero is not connected to the Blue Water Travel company that has been in trouble with the law. Ferguson refused to say anything else to CNYCentral and asked us to stay out of the conference center. No one has been accused of any crimes but. we have been told Thursday night's Blue Water appointments in Cicero have been canceled.

I love Felix. He was one of the most popular stars back in the 80's. My favorite Felix role is Legend of Condor Heroes. He's so funny there. Many like Felix as a villain too, but I don't think he has the villain look. I think Michael and Kent are better at villains than Felix. Felix totally have the heroic look.

Von Essen, according to his Twitter page, will perform Aug. 6 at 8 PM, Aug. 7 at 7 PM, Aug. 8 at 2 PM, Aug. 9 at 8 PM, Aug. 10 at 8 PM and Aug. 11 at 8 PM.
Daniel Torres will play the role of Che for the remaining performances that week.
On Broadway von Essen played Enjolras in the 2008 revival of Les Misérables, Alfred in Dance of the Vampires, Jean Prouvaire in the closing company of the original Les Misérables, and he made his debut as a disciple in the revival of Jesus Christ Superstar. Other New York credits include Death Takes a Holiday, The Duke of Windsor in Only A Kingdom at the York Theater, Alexander the Great in The History of War at The New York Music Theater Festival, The Soldier in the Transport Group's acclaimed revival of Michael John LaChiusa's Hello Again, Tremont in Jerry Springer: The Opera at Carnegie Hall, Woody in Finian's Rainbow at the Irish Repertory Theatre and Matt in The Fantasticks at the Sullivan Street Playhouse. Regionally, von Essen starred in the Paper Mill Playhouse production of The Baker's Wife and the Kennedy Center's staging of Mame. He also spent over a year roller-skating across the country as Sonny Malone in Xanadu. Von Essen's recording of "Just in Time for Christmas," the David Friedman-David Zippel holiday anthem written for and originally recorded by the late Nancy LaMott, is now available by visiting iTunes; proceeds benefit The Trevor Project.
The Broadway production stars Grammy winner Martin as Che, Olivier Award-winning Argentinean actress Elena Roger as Eva Perón and Tony Award winner Michael Cerveris as Juan Perón.
"Eva Perón used her beauty and charisma to rise meteorically from the slums of Argentina to the presidential mansion as First Lady," according to press notes. "She won international acclaim and adoration from her own people as a champion of the poor, while glamour, power and greed made her the world's first major political celebrity."
The creative team includes Tony Award-winning scenic and costume designer Christopher Oram, Tony Award-winning lighting designer Neil Austin, Olivier Award-winning sound designer Mick Potter, wig and hair designer Richard Mawbey, projection designer Zachary Borovay and music supervisor/director Kristen Blodgette. Orchestrations are by Andrew Lloyd Webber and David Cullen, and dance arrangements are by David Chase.

RE: Esther Allen Chapin (or vice versa?)
Thanks for the info!
I did a little surfing last night and found the GR cemeteries database lists her as Ester Chapin Allen.
I will try to research this a little more. Maybe she has a grave card at the downtown library that may shed a little light. Or I may be able to find a marriage license.
Will let you know if I find anything new.

Childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions in our country, as demonstrated by the report of the Centers for Disease Control, which indicates approximately 17% (or 12.5 million) of children and adolescents ages 2-19 years are considered obese. HE Parks wants to help!
Consider these facts from the National Conference on State Legislators:
- Approximately 13 million U.S. children and adolescents are obese, with a body mass index at or above the 95th percentile.
- Obesity is a major risk factor for many serious health conditions, including type 2 diabetes, stroke, heart disease, high blood pressure and certain cancers.
- During the past 40 years, obesity rates for children age 6 to 11 nearly tripled — from 5% to 14% — and more than tripled for adolescents ages 12 to 19 — from 5% to 17.1%.
- Obese adolescents have an 80% chance of becoming obese adults.
- An estimated 61% of obese young people already have at least one additional health risk factor such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
- Childhood obesity health expenses are estimated at $14 billion annually.
- Almost 30% of U.S. children do not exercise three or more times a week.
- More than 75% of high school students do not eat the recommended servings of fruits and vegetables each day.
At the Hoffman Estates Park District, we're taking this epidemic seriously by addressing the ways that we can help parents and their children in our community. As such, we've assembled a task force of managers and staff to develop a plan to educate and assist our community to improve health and lead healthier lifestyles.
The program, called HEALTH (Helping Everyone Achieve a Lifestyle That's Healthy), will be multi-faceted and on-going. Initially, we'll introduce a new publication, HEALTHeKids, for parents that promotes health and wellness in children; particularly those facing weight control issues. Other initiatives may include speakers at mandatory pre-season parent meetings for youth sports.
"We have the resources, facilities and programs to help parents," said Dean Bostrom, executive director. "Keeping our kids healthy is good for the entire community."
The park district will work with sponsor Alexian Brothers to provide information about ways to keep kids at a healthy weight. Our staff Registered Dietician, Amy Daum, will be very involved as well, providing fitness and nutrition tips.
"According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, childhood obesity has more than tripled in the United States over the last 30 years. It has contributed to an increase in chronic diseases like high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes, once only seen in adults. To address this serious issue, the HEALTH Program, a District-wide childhood obesity initiative, provides the community with a variety of excellent tools and resources to combat this critical issue." ~ Amy Daum, Registered Dietitian.
Meet Amy Daum, Registered Dietician, MPH, RD, LDN
Amy has a Bachelor's of Science degree in Nutrition from Benedictine University and a Master's degree in Public Health (Concentration in Community Nutrition). She also completed a Dietetic Internship. She is a Registered Dietitian and a Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist. Throughout her 12 years of experience she has enjoyed partnering with clients as they journey toward making their health a priority. She also enjoys individualized nutrition education and wellness coaching for each person's unique lifestyle.
Amy enjoys one-on-one counseling sessions and wellness coaching with clients and providing interactive presentations for groups on a variety of nutrition and wellness topics.
"One thing in life that has given me some of the greatest personal satisfaction is watching my clients achieve personal success and then hearing stories about how they begin to encourage, educate and inspire others in the same manner. It makes me smile when clients become passionate about nutrition and start teaching coworkers about food labels at the lunch table." - Amy Daum
You can join HEPD in our fight against childhood obesity.
One way is to purchase or renew a Park District Youth License Plate for your vehicle! With every license plate purchased or renewed, $25 is contributed to a grant fund to support programming for kids.

The High Phthalates Panel (HPP) of the American Chemistry Council (ACC) was formed in 2011 with a mission dedicated to promoting the benefits of esters of phthalic anhydride based on C9 and higher alcohols (C9+ phthalates). These high molecular weight phthalates include diisononyl phthalate (DINP), diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) and dipropylheptyl phthalate (DPHP).
In its efforts to support high molecular weight phthalates, the panel advocates before federal and state regulators and lawmakers to address unwarranted regulation and legislation; promotes sound science and objective risk assessments; promotes product performance and benefits; and advocates in the marketplace to address unwarranted de-selection.
DINP, DIDP and DPHP can be found in flexible vinyl applications across a broad range of industries and in hundreds of applications applications in our homes, cars and businesses. Flexible vinyl is used in automobiles to make them lighter and more fuel efficient and in a variety of household products, such as garden hoses and beach balls. Other key uses include: flooring, wall coverings, roofing and wiring.
ACC President and CEO Cal Dooley sent a letter on March 15, 2013 to Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Chairman Inez Tenenbaum requesting information on the CPSC's CHAP on phthalates and phthalate alternatives. » Read the full letter
