Memorial Day Cook-Out with Printables

With the big kick off to Summer this weekend?Memorial Day, we thought you might enjoy some ideas for your Memorial Day Cook-Out! I?m just tickled with how everything came together! And with the help of Charlotte from The Paper Cupcake, the printables made everything perfect!

We will sharing the recipes, decorations and printables over the next few days, so stay tuned right here and on Pocket Change Gourmet for all the fun details!

The Memorial Day Printables are my favorite, but after that, I think, the Serving Platter is next. Inspired by The Style Sisters, I used my pedestal cake platter, cut off the waist band of an old pair of blue jeans, and while I was working on the food, Doug sewed the waist band to the platter with a large needle and twine. If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen him working on that, yesterday. Then I tied 2 red?bandannas together and threaded them through the loops like a belt.

To hold the silverware, I cut off the pockets from the same pair of jeans, wrapped the silverware in a napkin, put them in the pockets and placed them in a red plastic pail.

Now it was time for the food?for the main dish, we served up a Hot Dog Bar, complete with a Chicago Dog, Taco Dog, Chili Cheese Dog, and Tex-Mex Dog. Pop on over to Pocket Change Gourmet for those recipes and more grilling ideas for your cook-out!

Another yummy recipe?Pizza Pasta Salad served in a clear glass bowl, with the adorable tented cards from The Paper Cupcake.

Inspired by the Rainbow Fruit Skewers we shared for St. Patrick?s Day, these Flag Fruit Kabobs go perfectly with the red, white & blue printables and decorations.

And for dessert {because you know I had to share some}?Patriotic Pie Squares?watch for the recipe coming soon!

The red, white & blue drinks are all dressed up with adorable drink wraps, also designed by The Paper Cupcake!

And the Paper Bag Lanterns add a bit of whimsy to the table! Learn how to make your own! {coming soon}

U.S. Launches Digital Roadmap To Open Up Government Data And Court Developers

There's all sorts of data that the government has, but very little of it is actually accessible by developers. But the U.S. Government is trying to change that: Wednesday at TechCrunch Disrupt, U.S. Chief Technology Officer Todd Park and Chief Information Officer Steven VanRoekel announced a new initiative within the government to open up data that was previously locked up in government documents and arcane backend systems. That will allow developers to create new applications and services based on that data. With the launch of the new digital road map, the U.S. government is hoping to increase the way that users can access data in many different ways. It's also designed to decrease inefficiency in government and to allow developers to build applications that the government would never have dreamed up.

School programs lead fight against childhood obesity | Healthy Diet ...

Inside E.A. Jones Elementary School, the battle against childhood obesity is being fought with fresh ingredients.

Bulletin boards tout the merits of home gardens and expose the tongue-twisting preservatives in junk food. Students take a ?food adventurer? pledge, promising to sample new recipes and never to utter the words ?yuck? or ?gross.? Stainless steel bowls burst with a bounty of greens, vegetables and herbs freshly harvested from the school garden.

And fifth-grade chefs sport aprons and spout exuberant reviews of their seed-to-plate cooking class.

?I love it!? said Andy Jaime, 11, his eyes lighting up behind his glasses. ?We learn about different types of food and how to eat healthy.?

It?s a typical day in the Fort Bend ISD school?s culinary classroom, where professional chefs from Recipe for Success guide students through healthy cooking lessons, organic gardening and nutrition education.

The classes are one component of Activate for Kids, a health and fitness pilot program developed by UnitedHealthcare and the United Health Foundation. The program, which kicked off this year in six school districts in Texas, Florida and Georgia, is among a growing number using a more holistic approach to tackle the childhood obesity epidemic.

In addition to the cooking classes, Activate for Kids runs early morning Zumba aerobics classes for elementary students, an obesity intervention program for kids and their parents, and health and fitness fairs in the Fort Bend and Klein school districts.

In Sharpstown High School, one of 53 schools across the country participating in the HealthCorps program started by Dr. Mehmet Oz, students can take before-school meditation classes or participate in an after-school fitness club.

Recipe for Success, a Houston-based nonprofit that offers cooking, gardening and nutrition education classes in 13 Houston-area schools, is expanding its curriculum nationwide by offering online training and certification.

?More and more schools are realizing that this is something they need to do,? said Gracie Cavnar, the founder of Recipe for Success. ?All the data says weight patterns and food attitudes are set for life by age 11. Early intervention is mandatory.?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than one-third of children and adolescents are overweight or obese, and childhood obesity rates have more than tripled over the last 30 years. Those children are at greater risk of diabetes, hypertension and other illnesses, are more likely to drop out of school, and demonstrate shorter attention spans.

Many of the programs incorporate nutrition education, cooking classes, fitness lessons, goal-setting techniques and emotional wellness tips.

Patterned after the Peace Corps, Healthcorps recruits new college graduates for two-year stints as school coordinators. At Sharpstown High Scool, Jornae Nevels leads cooking classes, fitness sessions and meditation training.

?It?s about exposing them to something new,? said Nevels, who also educates students about better food choices.

Activate for Kids offers anti-obesity training for school nurses and serves as a conduit between schools and community resources, said Stephanie Kellam, the wellness coordinator assigned to Fort Bend ISD. For example, the Recipe for Success classes at Jones Elementary are funded by a United Health Foundation grant.

If a recent fifth-grade cooking class is any indication, the program is already having an impact on the students.

That day, Recipe for Success chef Rakhi Desai ? Miss Rakhi to the kids ? led the class through the steps for making healthful pizza. The students chopped up fragrant bunches of oregano and parsley, rolled out whole-wheat dough and sprinkled rainbow-hued veggie toppings across the rectangular canvas.

But the real test came after the veggie and pesto pizzas came out of the oven, and everyone got a taste and a chance to review their creation.

?It?s delicious!? declared Andy. ?I would keep it exactly the way it is.?

Front Bike Lights and Staying Safe in the Countryside

Front Bike Lights ? Why are They Important?

No matter what type of rider you are, front bike lights are extremely important, especially if you know you will be cycling in the dark. Safety should be your main concern when our riding; the road can be a dangerous place when there are cars and other cyclists present so it is vital that you remain visible at all hours of the day. You can do this in a number of ways including wearing reflective clothing and investing a set of front bike lights. They will protect you and ensure your journey is a safe and smooth one. Country roads in particular can be full of hazards such as sharp bends and narrow bridges. Motorists should be another one of your main concerns; they can be extremely unpredictable by overtaking and flying around bends so it is essential to remain vigilant and have those front bike lights on full power.

Riding in the Country

Riding in built up areas or on busy roads is a completely different experience to that of riding in the countryside. There are plenty more risks to a cyclist riding amongst countryside lanes so it is essential to be well prepared. If you choose to ride in the day and know that you will be back well before dark, it is likely that you won't need a set of front bike lights however isn't it better to be safe than sorry? Imagine if you get lost and get delayed or come across bad weather, then you'll wish you attached that light to your bike! If you know you will be riding in the dark on countryside lanes, lights are an absolute must and you should also wear reflective clothing. This way you will be extra noticeable to drivers and other riders. Here are a few tips to riding in the countryside:

Hold your own whilst riding and don't let cars bully you.
Look out for potholes on those roads you haven't visited before.
Be assertive with any animals you come across.
Stay hydrated; bring enough water and food with you.
Kit yourself out with front bike lights and wear reflective clothing.

Front Bike Lights and Enjoying Your Ride

Of course it is safety that should be your primary concern but it is also important that you enjoy your ride! Having front bike lights attached to your bike will mean you can get the most out of your hobby and it will also allow you to ride whatever time of day you please. As already discussed, cycling in the countryside brings with it many dangers but if you are aware of these and are well prepared, countryside riding is fun and exciting! There are so many front bike lights available today so make sure you choose wisely.

Screening for Lung Cancer Might Benefit Those at Highest Risk

SUNDAY, May 20 (HealthDay News) -- Using low-dose CT scans to screen for lung cancer might save the lives of patients at the greatest risk for the disease, a new analysis suggests.

However, the risks of screening for others aren't clear, the researchers added.

"We have insight into risks, but they are hard to weigh and estimate," said lead researcher Dr. Peter Bach, from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City.

"It's clear that when you screen you find cancers that otherwise wouldn't appear, and that leads to overtreatment," he said. "It is clear that CTs find lots of things that aren't cancer. About one in five people have something found that will require some sort of follow-up."

There is also an excess radiation risk. In one trial, screening prevented about three deaths per 1,000 people screened, while one in 2,500 might develop cancer from the CT scan, Bach said.

However, in the right population it could theoretically prevent thousands of deaths a year, he explained.

Namely, that population is the heaviest smokers, those who smoke for 30 pack-years or more. A pack-year is the number of cigarettes smoked over time. This means at least a pack a day for 30 years or two packs a day for 15 years.

"For these patients, we recommend that doctors might suggest screening and discuss the risks and benefits," Bach said. "But, no one should be telling people that they must have this test or advertise that it's a lifesaving procedure that will prevent you from dying from lung cancer."

In the end, "there is no substitution for smoking cessation in terms of health benefits," Bach noted.

The report was published online May 20 in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

For the study, Bach's team reviewed 21 studies about the benefits and risks of low-dose CT screening for lung cancer.

One of the studies, the National Lung Screening Trial, included more than 53,000 people and found that screening reduced deaths from lung cancer by 20 percent, the researchers said.

The results of that trial were published last June in the New England Journal of Medicine.

However, the other, smaller trials found no benefit from screening, Bach's team noted.

The study authors found that, overall, 20 percent of patients had a scan that needed follow-up, but only 1 percent had lung cancer.

The studies were done in teaching hospitals with experienced radiologists and cancer doctors, Bach noted.

This report is the basis of the screening recommendations adopted by the American College of Chest Physicians and the American Society of Clinical Oncology.

The recommendations state that heavy smokers aged 55 to 74, and those who have quit in the past 15 years, should be offered screening.

But screening should only be done at hospitals that do a lot of this kind of screening. These are usually large or teaching hospitals, because the value of this screening at community hospitals is not known, Bach added.

Dr. Norman Edelman, chief medical officer at the American Lung Association, called the new study a "thoughtful analysis of an important topic."

The American Lung Association conducted a similar review and came to similar conclusions, he said.

The data suggest that screening heavy smokers is likely to reduce death from lung cancer by about 20 percent and all-cause mortality by about 10 percent, he said.

"Given the large cohort to which it pertains, this would be a significant public health achievement," Edelman stated.

However, there remain many unsettled issues, he said.

"One major issue is whether the same results would be observed in the community as opposed to the controlled academic settings in which the study was done," Edelman said. "Accordingly, the American Lung Association report emphasizes the need for screening to be done in centers which can provide low-dose CT screening and a comprehensive multi-specialty environment, so that finding of suspect nodules can be followed up with appropriate [care] rather than undue risk."

Robert Smith, director of cancer screening at the American Cancer Society, said, "These recommendations are consistent" with screening guidelines from similar medical groups.

However, he believes these guidelines will be refined over the years as new data become available.

"The question remains, who else might you endorse lung cancer screening for," Smith said. "Suppose someone had a 35 pack/year history and they were 35 years old, or what if they were 45 years old and had started smoking at the age of 12."

There may be other levels of risk where screening might be beneficial, Smith said: "We will probably learn a lot from trials that are currently under way."

Kyocera announces the Hydro and Rise Ice Cream Sandwich handsets

Kyocera

Kyocera has brought two new handsets to CTIA, the Hydro and the Rise, and they're letting them out of the bag this morning. Both phones are decidedly entry level, use the latest technology to enhance voice call sounds, and run Ice Cream Sandwich. The Hydro is a 3.5-inch HVGA with an MSM8655 Snapdragon at 1 GHz, and 512 MB of RAM. It's also waterproof at 1 meter for 30 minutes, because according to Kyocera "70% of users polled said that water resistance is an important feature in their next phones." We can't argue there, we've all seen horror stories about water and smartphones.

The Rise shares the same specs (and overall basic design) with a four-row horizontal sliding QWERTY keyboard instead of the water proof design. Again Kyocera tells us why, saying that "69 percent of consumers say QWERTY keyboards are a must-have or nice-to-have feature in their next mobile phones." A statistic that I can get behind, but I'm thinking most readers on the Internet will disagree with.

Possibly the most interesting specification is the "Tissue Conduction" audio technology. Originally designed for hearing aid devices, the tech uses a piezoelectric transducer that transmits sound through air as sound waves, and through soft tissue as vibrations. This "delivers dramatically improved hearing in noisy environments" according to Kyocera. You'll simply place any portion of the "A-cover" over the outer ear and ambient noise is cut and the transducer splits the signal to transmit on both paths. It's a really interesting concept, and one we can't wait to try.

There's no word on carrier, release dates, or prices, but both phones are equipped with EVDO radios and should appear later this year on Sprint or Verizon. Given Sprint's relation with Kyocera, my money is on the Now Network. See the full specifications for both after the break.
