Not surprisingly, Peter McPherson, president of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities, objected to the use of the term “profits” to categorize the excess money colleges take in through undergraduate students, but all the panelists seemed to agree that there is both significant waste in higher ed, and that the Capitol Hill obsession with unabashedly for-profit institutions misses big cracks all over the Ivory Tower. Unfortunately, of course, many of you couldn’t join us on Tuesday. Thankfully, you can now take in the entire bit of illuminating infotainment right here: On a related note, give George Leef&#821...

Over thirty percent of its population is considered obese. Adults aren’t the only ones gaining weight, either. Forty-four percent of children, ages 10-17, are considered obese as well. The state is well aware of its problem with obese residents, especially children, and is taking steps to correct the problem. School children are being exposed to lower fat foods and more exercise each day. Experts feel that with the struggling economy, healthy foods might be harder to come by for some families, making the problem of obesity even worse. Image: sxc.hu.

Just the mere thought sets many tongues to salivating. Unfortunately, traditional Southern cooking has had to be nixed from many diets because not too many of us want to ingest so much grease and fat into our precious arteries. Luckily, Southern cooking is getting a bit of a makeover do to the South Eats Diet. The new approach to Southern cooking concentrates more on the beauty of vegetables and grains that have long been a staple on Southern tables while skipping the deep frying parts. By celebrating the slow cooking processes of varied veggies and promoting so many flavors, the fat is cut out of the food. For more on this new idea, click here...

For instance, Auntie developed a greater craving for sweets than she ever had.  Mother, who never overate on sweets, wanted them more frequently.  I wonder what these ladies would have thought about Deep-Fried Oreos, a variation of this famous black and white cookie I recently heard about at Sara’s Health Bolt blog.  She even refers you to a blog containing the instructions for making them! Let me know what you think…of the idea or the recipe, if you try it.                            I wonder, would an Alzheimer’s patient enjoy looking at this pictu...

KFC settled a state lawsuit in California and will also have to pay $341,000 in penalties and funding for Proposition 65 enforcement, which is a voter-passed measure that requires businesses to post warnings about dangerous chemicals contained in food. Acrylamide is created when chemicals in food react to high heat. I'm not surprised that french fries from a fast food restaurant are dangerous. What shocked me though is that the warning also states "It (acrylamide) is created in fried and baked potatoes made by all restaurants, by other companies, and even when you bake...
