There are so many healthy food and beverage options now to help family members of all ages manage their eating habits. Just like most parents, I'm not a fan of putting kids on a restrictive “diet,” but simple food-swaps can make a big impact, without the kids even knowing it. For instance, one suggested swap for the younger family members is Juicy Juice Fruitifuls. It has 35% less sugar than regular juice, a full serving of fruit and a taste kid's love. In fact, replacing a regular juice box with Fruitifuls every day can reduce annual sugar intake by 13 cups.

Upon leaving the military, many veterans—especially those who have been injured—anticipate their earned benefits to begin automatically. That is not the case. Veterans must apply for their benefits, and awards are not automatic. In fact, the Veterans Affairs (VA) claims-processing delays recently hit a 20-year high, with the average claim taking 262 days to be processed. Each day that veterans’ claims languish means another day that they do not receive the benefits they need in order to care for themselves and their families.

I managed to complete one more song and video in record time. This is the kind of music that I wanted to eventually upload. What is a shame is the fact that I have a vast amount of songs, mostly incomplete that sound just as good as this one and could be completed as fast as I have been doing but I've got enough material to last me 5 life times and as quickly as I work on one, 5 more ideas pop in my head. I must have some kind of song writing disorder

Snow and ice are two weather conditions in which driving are not enjoyable. In fact, it has been suggested that the safest way to handle driving in winter weather is to just stay home. That might work for areas where bad conditions are of short duration. But in some areas where ice and snow is standard for longer periods, that might not be possible.
Hospital-acquired infections can be deadly – and many times preventable. Nearly every major public health organization agrees that ineffective “hand-hygiene” (hand washing or using disinfecting sprays, wipes or gels) is one of the most significant contributors to the problem. Further compounding the problem is the fact that compliance rates among caregivers are difficult to track and often found to be low.
Hill-Rom has developed a new system to help hospitals monitor hand-hygiene rates: the Hill-Rom® Hand Hygiene Compliance Solution. The new offering, which is now available to hospitals nationwide, provides real-time monitoring and staff reminders, simplifies reporting, and can use the same hardware and devices as other Hill-Rom real-time locating solutions.
