USA TODAY
Share
  
Calls from consumer advocates and politicians are growing louder for the Obama administration to name an undersecretary for food safety at the Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service, a position unfilled for more than a year.

Management by imagination
Harvard Business Review
Share
  
The precept "If you can't measure it, it doesn't count" has long been considered the golden rule of management. Roger Martin, author of "The Design of
Business: Why Design Thinking is the Next Competitive Advantage," counters that view with a new maxim of his own: "If you can't imagine it, you will never create it." The future, he says, is about imagination, not measurement. To imagine a future, one has to look beyond the measurable variables, beyond what can be proven with past data.

The Daily Green

environmental sustainability. Clean energy economy jobs grew by 9.1 percent between 1998 and 2007, compared to just 3.7 percent in overall job growth in those years (before the markets crashed.)

Apart from lack of exercise, prolonged periods of sitting are harmful
Medical News Today
Share
  
In an issue of the British Journal of Sports Medicine, specialists argue that prolonged periods of sitting are truly detrimental. In addition, we should focus on the harms caused by daily inactivity rather than on the lack of regular exercise
alone. Recent research indicates that prolonged periods of sitting and lack of whole body muscular movement are strongly linked to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and an overall higher risk of death. This is regardless of whether moderate to vigorous exercise is taken.
