FindingBalanceHealthPageWhen it comes to maintaininga healthy weight, the key for youand your family isfrom the National Heart, Lungand Blood InstituteThere’s been a lot of talk latelyabout how much heavierAmericans have been gettingsince the 1970s. Today, approximately65 percent of adults areoverweight or obese. Sixty-one millionadult Americans are consideredobese. What’s more, children aregetting heavier as well. The percentageof children and teens that areoverweight has more than doubled inthe past 30 years. Today, about 17percent of American children ages 2-19 are overweight.Extra pounds can add up to healthproblems, often for life. In adults,overweight and obesity are linked toincreased risk of heart disease, type 2diabetes, high blood pressure, certaincancers and other chronic conditions.For children, being overweight alsoincreases their health risks. Type 2diabetes was once rare in Americanchildren--now it accounts for eight to45 percent of newly diagnoseddiabetes cases in children andadolescents. And, overweight childrenare more likely to become overweightor obese as adults.Becoming overweight doesn’thappen overnight. It happens overtime when the energy we take in byeating is not in balance with theenergy we burn from physical activity.However, there are things we cando to prevent overweight and obesity.Get StartedAs you think about how to approachyour family with a plan to eatbetter, increase physical activity, andreduce screen time, here are somesuggestions worth considering:Be a good role model. Researchshows that children and teens reallydo listen to their parents and modeltheir behavior. If you eat well andmove more, your children are morelikely to follow.Involve younger children in thedecisions. Young children love to trynew things, even new foods oractivities. Talk to your children aboutmaking smart food and physicalactivity choices. It will be easier ifHealth LinksFor more information on how youcan help each member of yourfamily maintain a healthy weight,visit the We Can section of theNational Heart, Lung and BloodInstitute’s website at: http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/public/heart/obesity/wecan/everyone can help support each otherto eat well and move more. For example,every weekend have one ormore of your children pick onephysical activity for the whole familyto do. Have your younger child comewith you to the grocery store to pickout some healthy foods he or shewould like to try. Try fresh fruits inseason. Summer is a great time to trypeaches and strawberries as snacks.Have older children make decisions.Older children might not be asopen to you telling them what to do,so tailor your request to the child’sage and temperament. For example,for teens who are learning to be moreindependent, you can explain thatyou want them to be more active.Then ask them what they want to do,rather than tell them what theyshould be doing. You also could letthem know that you bought somehealthier snacks for them to try andtell them you trust them to preparesomething healthy when they’rehungry.Make dietary changes slowly. Ifyour family normally drinks wholemilk, try buying two percent low-fatmilk and see if they notice a difference.After a few weeks, try reducingthe fat content again to one percentlow-fat milk. Too drastic a change allat once may upset your family;introduce new foods gradually.6 William Penn Life, September 2007

Charitable IdeasFundraising basicsSuccessful fundraising events are never easy to organize,but following these proven methods can earn more dollars for your charityHow many times have you oryour branch participated in afundraising event and, whenit was all over, were disappointed bythe results? You knew the event couldhave been more successful, but youweren’t sure what could--or should--have been done to make it moresuccessful.Most of us are not professionalevent planners or fundraisers, but, byutilizing some of the following advicefrom the Association for InternationalCancer Research, we can planfundraising events like a professional--eventsthat will raise moremoney for your favorite charity.Getting StartedOnce you have chosen your eventthere are many areas that you mustcover to make it a success. Thekeyword is PLANNING--allow plentyof time to look at the various aspectsof the challenge that lies before you:- Discuss with friends, colleagues,and management how easily theevent can be organized.- Do we have the people to make allparts of the project run smoothly?- Will the event cost us anything toget off the ground?- Arrange a date.- What resources do we need?- How do we publicize the event?- What can go wrong?- Can we get a local celebrity?Publicizing the eventYour event must be well publicizedif it is to be a success.You can begin at your place ofwork. You can place information onthe bulletin board and in the companynewsletter. You can make a briefannouncement about your event atmeetings. And, there’s always thewater cooler: nothing gets the wordaround faster than word of mouth.Meanwhile, back at home, you canget the word out by sending leaflets tofamily members and to local merchantsand businesses. Make sureyou place notices in public places,including the library, churches andgovernment office buildings.The mediaIf you are able to get the support ofyour local radio and TV stations, yourevent’s profile is taken onto anotherlevel. You will find it invaluablewhen approaching people in the localbusiness community. If they thinkthat they might be able to get somegood (and cheap) local PR, they aremore likely to help.The person to get in touch with inthe local paper is the news editor. Ifyou know a reporter, use the personalcontact as this always works betterthan the cold contact. Find out thepaper’s deadlines for copy andphotographs. When preparing yourinformation for the media, alwaysinclude:- What the event is- Who is involved- Why the event is taking place- When, where and what timeCharity LinksFor more information and ideas onhow to plan a successful fundraisingevent, contact the charityyou are trying to help. They will behappy to assist you. Or, you canlog onto the ideas page of theAssociation for InternationalCancer Research’s website at: http://www.aicr.org.ukIdeas.stm- A contact name for furtherinformationWhen you are planning your event,always try and think like a newspaperreporter. Think what is newsworthy.Try to create a publicity stunt,have a local dignitary or celebrity andalways have a photo opportunity.Seeking SponsorsGetting other individuals and localbusinesses to help cover the cost ofstaging your fundraising event willnot only make this easier for you asyou plan the event, but will also allowmore of the money you raise to go toyour selected charity.Set your sponsorship target andaim high!First, seek help from your friends,family, neighbors and co-workers.You will collect more than youthought possible, but you need towork at it.Start seeking sponsors early, wellin advance of the event. When youapproach people for sponsorship, askthem if they would mind giving youthe money now and offer a receipt. Itis easier to give money back shouldyou have to cancel the event, asopposed to trying to collect after theevent. People lose interest quickly,and often find excuses for not givingyou the money afterwards.Always maintain a record of yoursponsors and ensure that your listreflects those who have paid andthose who have still to give you theircontribution.If you belong to a club or association,get them involved either as asponsor, by organizing a fundraisingevent, or by ‘matching’ the funds youraise.Ask local companies or firms tosponsor you in return for wearingtheir logo on your T-shirt.8 William Penn Life, September 2007

According tothe paper, the offer is a result ofHungarian-U.S. talks. The Cubansare not connected to prisonersheld at Guantanamo Bay. TheCuban Foreign Ministry stronglycriticized Hungary in a statementreleased Aug 22, brandingHungary an American “lackey,”saying “the Hungarian governmentis taking action as an accompliceof the American empire.” TheHungarian Foreign Ministryresponded to the criticism sayingthat the Cubans’ had used “asharp tone unacceptable indiplomacy.”Thieves attemptto steal bridgeBUDAPEST -- Thieves attemptedto dissemble and steal an entirerailway bridge near the Austrianborder at Pinkamindszent, locatedabout 124 miles west of Budapest.The thieves had almost succeeded,when they were caught redhandedby the local mayor, IstvánCsiszár. The bridge--which spans adistance of about 30 feet--hadbeen closed since 1962. Presumablythis was the inspiration forthe thieves, who planned to sellthe metal parts to the nearbywaste collecting and recyclingplant.

In a future column I'llexplain more about the HungarianKitchen and scholarship connection.It also gives me great pleasure toannounce that The HungarianKitchen will be on line starting thismonth at www.HungarianKitchen.com.There, you can find the same columnas it appears in the William Penn Lifealong with many other features tohelp you enjoy Magyar food. As timegoes on there will be an archive whereyou can look up all the recipes thathave come out in print along withother food information, kitchen tipsCHEF’S TIP # 70As you search the Internet for recipes,don't forget to bookmark your favoritewebsites. Even though you can print outsingle recipes, it’s a good idea to have areference point you can start from thenext time you need new recipes or wantto get more in depth information abouta certain food topic.and photos. You can even contact meor Chef Vilmos by email!Here is your trivia question of themonth: Who invented the World WideWeb? The fact-filled answer awaitsyou.Food and the Internet is a verybroad topic, but I'll try and make it asimple learning tool. The fact of thematter is, if you know how to use acomputer, everything else will fallinto place and be easy for you. Firstthing we need to do is review somebasic facts about the internet.The INTERNET is a worldwidepublic accessible network of interconnectedcomputer networks thattransmit data to each other, a networkof networks.A WEB PAGE is a text documentthat is published on a server, hasHTML tags, and includes hypertextlinks and usually graphics.A WEB SITE is a collection of webpages that share a common themeand purpose usually accessedthrough a home page.A WEB BROWSER is a softwareapplication that enables a user todisplay and interact with text, imagesand other information located on aweb page. Let me give you someexamples. Internet Explorer andNetscape Navigator would be examplesof web browsers. Yahoo.comwould be an example of a web pageand web site.A DOMAIN NAME represents a12William Penn Life, September 2007

The Hungarian Kitchenweb site to the outside world. In theUnited States the domain nameusually ends with one of the followingendings; “.com” for a business,“.edu” for educational institutions,“.org” for nonprofit groups like theWilliam Penn, “.net” for those groupsthat are directly part of the internetand “.gov” for government agencies.Here is one more example to clarifythings even more. The addresswww.williampennassociation.org tells usit's on the World Wide Web, theWilliam Penn Association is thegroup that sponsored the site, and it’sa nonprofit organization.We're making great progress, sohere are a few more things you needto know. A SEARCH ENGINE is aninformation retrieval system designedto help find information stored on acomputer system which also minimizesthe time required to find theinformation and the amount as well.Some of the most popular searchengines are Google, Yahoo Search,Ask Jeeves and Alta Vista.We are done with the technicalstuff, and now its time to put whatwe’ve learned into practice. So, let'sgo exploring the Internet.Let's find a recipe for Germanbratwurst. First we choose a searchengine like www.google.com and typethat address in the address bar of ourweb browser. Once the Google homepage comes up, we’ll see the large,colorful Google logo and, directlybelow it, a box with a blinking cursor.In this box, let’s type “Germanbratwurst recipe.” Now, click on the“Google Search” tab that’s just belowPractical PointerWhile traveling when in small hotels it'srecommended not to brush your teeth oreat any food that has been washed in thewater. If you need water, bring along animmersion heater to boil a small amount oruse purifying tablets such as Halzone. Safebeverages are coffee and tea provided youare sure the water has been boiled. Bottledwater, beer, wine and sodas are usually safeto drink but use a clean glass or straw.what we typed. Soon will appear along list of places where you can findrecipes for German bratwurst.Now, instead of getting a recipe,let’s say we want to find a placewhere we can buy bratwurst on theInternet. Once again, go to the Googlehomepage and type in “Germanbratwurst retailers.” Google gives usmany options--from German grocerystores to restaurants in Berlin--wherewe can get the best German bratwurst.It's that easy to navigate theInternet to find anything you wantwhen it comes to food (or virtuallyanything else, for that matter)Let's try it one more time using AskJeeves as our search engine. We goback to our web browser home pageand type “www.askjeeves.com” in theaddress bar and hit enter. Once theAskJeeves homepage appears, let'slook for pickled pigs feet. Type that inthe box and hit enter. On the top lineyou will see pickled pigs feet followedby "showing 1-10 of 21,300" whichmean you are viewing 10 items out ofa list of 21,300 that relate to pickledpigs feet. If you keep hitting the nextbutton on the bottom right of the pageyou will keep getting results forpickled pigs feet until you reach thelast entry which would be 21,300.As you can see it's easy to find outa lot about food. Here are some quicktips to help in your searches:- Choose a search engine, then“bookmark” it (i.e., save it) in your“favorites” tab. This will save youtime when you need to search forinformation.- Be precise when searching. Ifyou're looking for recipes, includethat in your query. If you're searchingfor sellers of a product specify that aswell. The more precise you are, themore closely your results will matchwhat you are looking for.- Be patient when searching andyou will find exactly what you'relooking for, whether it is a recipe orcertain hard to find product.- Last, but not least, have fun andenjoy the experience of learning moreabout the Internet and all it has tooffer.CulinaryCornerWhen searching for a recipeon the Internet, make sure toprint it out in the size thatworks for you. Most websiteslet you choose between an8½ x 11 sheet and a 3 x 5index card for your recipebox. Many recipe sites also listlinks to help you find relatedinformation, including quickvideos describing culinarytechniques and definitions.Some sites even have a pictureof what the finished productshould look like.Congratulations! Now, yourhomework assignment is to search forHungarian recipes you can preparefor your family. I did random searchesto get the four recipes for you thismonth which I know you will enjoy.Trivia Answer: Tim Berners-Leeinvented the World Wide Web back inthe early 1990's which had a pointand click browser, core ideas thatincluded today's web browsers likeInternet Explorer, Netscape, Operaand Mozilla.
