Moreover, for a food product to be considered ‘whole grain’, the FDA says it must contain at least 51% of whole grains by weight. Processed whole grain foods may therefore have lower fibre and nutrient and antioxidant levels compared to intact grains.
In practice, when you buy whole grain bread from the supermarket, that bread will have a whole other list of ingredients that are not whole grains. A whole grain bread made with plenty of sugar or sweetened dried fruit is going to have different effect on your body from, say, brown rice or oats.
At the supermarket, we should be choosing whole grain products that are higher in fibre. Also, remember that including a variety of whole grain foods in the diet is the best way to reap the different health benefits.
Whole grain food products: whole wheat flour, whole wheat bread, rolled oats / oatmeal, popcorn, rye bread, whole grain pasta, whole grain tortilla, whole grain breakfast cereals, whole grain snacks and baked goods (eg. crackers, bars, muffins, etc).
Are there certain groups of people who should pay more attention to eating whole grains?
Wong Hui Xin: Everyone should consume whole grains over refined grains to help reduce risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, as well as for weight control and digestive health.
Besides eating a diet based on whole foods, we should also adopt a healthy lifestyle by engaging in physical activities for 150 minutes each week.
Whole grain foods may particularly benefit people with diabetes and overweight individuals.
For people with diabetes, eating whole grain foods helps to control blood sugar levels better due to the higher fibre content which slows down the absorption of carbohydrates.
For overweight individuals, eating whole grains helps to promote satiety, which helps reduce food consumption and overeating.

Operation Tuna Salad is back!
What happens when we join forces with the Hunger Task Force of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Delaware County to make tuna salad for 150 people at a local homeless shelter? Operation Tuna Salad! From May through September/October, every second Friday evening of the month we gather with members of the Hunger Task Force to make and assemble tuna salad - LOTS of tuna salad. It's our way of giving back to the community that has given so much to us and to serve those in need. Everyone brings three pounds of cooked macaroni, chops veggies, opens giant cans of tuna and mayonnaise, and then mixes all the ingredients in colorful plastic tubs. The tuna salad is then bagged, and the bags are handed from person to person to be stored in the downstairs refrigerator. The next day the tuna salad is transported to the Life Center Shelter in Upper Darby for Saturday evening dinner.
We spoke previously on the management of privileged accounts and how important it is to keep them accountable. Privileged accounts are one of many different types of accounts that should fall under your organizations Account Management Program and another one to add to that would be service accounts.
What is a service account anyway? In basic terms, a service account is an account that a service on your computer uses to run under and access resources. This should not be a user’s personal account. While they may look the same, the separation of users from services is very important for both tracking and the ability to tighten down what an account can and cannot do. A service account could also be an account that is used for a scheduled task (sometimes referred to as a batch job account), or an account that is used in a script that is run outside of a specific user’s context. A scheduled task account should not be a personal user’s account for the same reasons that a service should not run under a personal user’s account.
You may ask what is so important about these? It seems like if it is not a user account, then how would it have access to my organization’s network? On the contrary, these accounts are a favorite target of many malicious actors because they are often implemented in such a way that they have a higher level of access than a user account. Historically, they also have not changed passwords as often (if ever) as user accounts.
Services are often installed under the built-in Local System account, which gives what are essentially local administrator privileges, so they are more predictable in how they will be able to be used if compromised. While local administrator privileges may seem somewhat harmless since they are not usually useable on other computers on your network, the local administrator privileges can end up granting access to domain username/password combinations and or lead to account changes that allow for easier connections to other parts of your network. As a result, both locking down a service account and following good password change and audit procedures is an important part of keeping your systems secure.
When it comes to the configuration and management of service accounts, there a few things listed below that can help.
Password Management – Some administrators like to set these accounts up with passwords that do not expire or use the same password for all the service accounts. Instead, there needs to be a strategy for managing these passwords and changing them on a regular basis, as well as using unique passwords.
Privilege Management – It is best practice to implement the principle of least privilege. Only provide the minimum necessary privileges to service accounts. If your service account must run with administrative privileges, deny that account access to all of the directories besides the one or two that it needs.
Naming – Consider names that are not completely obvious to the service, for example SQLService would be helpful to administrators, but it is more helpful to attackers. While obfuscation is not usually a recommendation to secure systems, in this case it may slow someone down enough to not want to try every account available.
Auditing – Logging and auditing of service accounts, and all accounts in any case, is very important to keep systems secure. Using an event log aggregator and looking for specific events can be helpful in discovering security problems and services that are not working correctly.
Locking down your service accounts should be a basic component of your hardening guide for all computers. While it requires more time to lock down a new service account to allow access only to what it needs, it is well worth the time spent. Defense-in-depth requires that you look at more than the perimeter, and service accounts are one major place where the in-depth strategy can serve you well.

In fact, data organizations often set reliability standards that their data must reach before publication. Correction for correlation in the sample Expected error in the mean of A for a sample of n data points with sample bias coefficient ρ. For example, the sample mean is the usual estimator of a population mean. Similarly, if results from only female respondents are analyzed, the margin of error will be higher, assuming females are a subgroup of the population.

One of the best goalkeepers the game has seen and the sole custodian awarded the Ballon d'Or, Yashin claimed that trophy in 1963 after winning a sixth Soviet Top League title with his only club, Dinamo Moskva. Always dressed in black, he was imposing and extraordinarily agile. The UEFA European Championship contributed considerably to his legend and he was in especially brilliant form against Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia as the USSR lifted the inaugural title in 1960. He was greatly mourned, both inside and outside Russia, when he died in 1990.
Djurković excelled as a 22-year-old at the first UEFA European Championship, offering defensive solidity and attacking penetration at right-back. Although Yugoslavia missed out in France, he collected a gold medal at the Rome Olympics that September. Djurković played with Crvena zvezda before making a name for himself with St-Étienne, landing three French titles and the Coupe de France twice. He died tragically when mistakenly shot by a policeman in Sion, Switzerland, in June 1972 at the age of 36.
Captain of Czechoslovakia in 71 of the 75 internationals he played, Novák was leader of the talented team that finished third at the 1960 UEFA European Championship and runners-up at the 1962 FIFA World Cup. Especially strong in the air, he was a commanding presence on the domestic scene too, securing eight Czechoslovak titles with Dukla Praha. He won the championship with Dukla as a coach in 1982 and took charge of a number of Belgian clubs during the 1970s and 1980s as well as the Czech national side. He died in March 2011.
Netto helped his country to glory at the 1956 Olympics in Melbourne and the first UEFA European Championship in France. An inspirational leader and exceptional footballer, he is probably best remembered for an extraordinary act of sportsmanship at the 1962 World Cup when he told the referee to disallow a goal against Uruguay in the group stage as the ball had entered the net from the wrong side. Netto's devotion to Spartak Moskva brought him five USSR championships and three domestic cups. He passed away in March 1999.
The first player from the former Communist Bloc to receive the Ballon d'Or, in 1962, Masopust was a midfield general of the highest order. The 1962 World Cup was his finest hour as he masterminded his team's run to the final against holders Brazil – where he opened the scoring only to end on the losing side after a 3-1 defeat. He notched ten goals in 63 outings for his country, despite often having to curb his attacking instincts. A serial champion with Dukla Praha, Masopust later coached the club and also took the national-team job during the mid-1980s. He died in June 2015.
A loyal servant to Torpedo Moskva, Ivanov twice picked up the Soviet title but was probably more renowned for his international exploits. He hit 26 goals in 59 games for the USSR, including four at the 1962 World Cup in Chile, where he was joint-leading scorer. He won the inaugural UEFA European Championship in 1960, registering twice in the 3-0 semi-final defeat of Czechoslovakia, and was again on form four years later as the USSR reached another final. He coached Torpedo four times, landing one league crown and two domestic cups. He died in November 2011.
A pacy right-winger, Metreveli made his mark on the 1960 UEFA European Championship – and Soviet Union football history – by scoring the equaliser in the final against Yugoslavia. It was his fourth goal in an international career that would last for another decade, earning him trips to the 1962, 1966 and 1970 World Cups. The Georgian played for Torpedo Moskva from 1956 to 1962, acquiring two championships and one Soviet Cup, before going home to join Dinamo Tbilisi. He passed away in January 1998 at the age of 61.
With 37 goals in 51 matches for Yugoslavia, Galić stands second in the country's all-time scoring charts, one behind 1950s icon Stjepan Bobek. Both were star strikers for Partizan, with Galić playing for the club in the 1966 European Champion Clubs' Cup final, yet it was in the blue, white and red of Yugoslavia that they established worldwide reputations. Galić was on target in every round of the 1960 UEFA European Championship and repeated the trick in claiming a gold medal at the Rome Olympics. He ended his career with spells at Standard Liège and Stade de Reims and died in September 2014.
The first player called up to the Soviet Union national team while representing a second division side (SKA Rostov-on-Don), Ponedelnik justified the selection by netting a hat-trick on his debut in a 7-1 thrashing of Poland in May 1960. A few weeks later he became the toast of the Soviet Union by heading in the winning extra-time goal in the UEFA European Championship final. Ponedelnik (which translates as Sunday) amassed a total of 20 goals in his 29 internationals before being forced into premature retirement at 29.
A maverick inside-forward whose showman skills made him a celebrity footballer in Yugoslavia through the 1950s and 1960s, Šekularac spent the bulk of his career with Belgrade giants Crvena zvezda (he is one of five individuals in their hall of fame) before exporting his talents to West Germany and Colombia. The 1960 UEFA European Championship proved a particular highlight for a player who made his debut at 18, though he also featured at the World Cups of 1958 and 1962. His popularity was such that he starred in the 1962 movie Šeki snima, pazi se.
Kostić did not get his name on the scoresheet at the 1960 UEFA European Championship finals but the predatory forward was responsible for getting Yugoslavia to France with three of their six strikes in the quarter-final against Portugal. He further enhanced his reputation with seven in five games at the Rome Olympics that year, including one in the final against Denmark. He was no less prolific with Crvena zvezda, for whom he remains the all-time leading marksman with 158 top-flight goals. He died in January 2011.
Santa Anita, shown on March 5, has stopped its racing program in the wake of 22 horse deaths since Dec. 26.
Imagine being a car owner with tires that keep going flat. You change the windshield wipers and install new brake pads. Hey, it’s safer. See? But … um … why are the tires going flat?
You did something, without answering or addressing the question.
That’s the alarming lack of dot-connecting happening at Santa Anita Park in the wake of yet another horse death at the track. The facility in Arcadia, reeling from 22 fatalities since Dec. 26 — including one Thursday, a day after re-opening the main track for training — came across as a flailing misdirection.
The decision to, among other things, ban the use of the medication Lasix sent trainers and those who care for horses into outraged orbit.
The dominoes, crushing and possibly permanent.
“I think they’re going to cause a mass exodus from California,” trainer Joe Herrick said. “Lasix has nothing — nothing — to do with the soundness of a horse. If they want to really do something, cut anti-inflammatories in half or altogether so when a vet diagnoses a horse in the morning, they really know what’s happening. I look OK when I have three or four Advil. If I don’t, I limp around pretty good.
Lasix is a potent diuretic that controls pulmonary bleeding in horses prone to that. If all of it sounds too inside-baseball, boil it down to this: Santa Anita had to do something to address far too many horse deaths, but picked the wrong something. In fact, they picked the exact something that could tear apart the sport at its California seams.
If any of this sounds like an argument in support of the sport soft-shoeing its approach to safety, that’s nowhere close to being the case. In fact, nothing is more important to its financial and moral survival.
It’s a matter of being smart and, as much as anything, on-target about decisions that send ripples through an industry already on fragile footing with an aging fan base, animal-safety concerns and a range of other challenges. Racing supports an estimated 50,000 jobs and $2.5 billion in annual economic impact in California alone.
Carlsbad horse owner and handicapper Jon Lindo reinforced Santa Anita’s confusing response.
“The announcement they made, it’s completely separate from the breakdown problem they’ve been having up there,” said Lindo, whose horse Skye Diamonds ran twice in the prestigious Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint. “To me, this statement has nothing else to do with what’s going on at Santa Anita.
To Santa Anita’s credit, doing something almost always trumps doing nothing. The Stronach Group, which operates the track, made the remarkable step to stop races and training in an effort to identify what was claiming so many horses. Soggy conditions also have turned Southern California into Seattle South, wreaking havoc on racing surfaces.
When answers related to the track itself proved elusive, though, the announced changes came across as throwing as much against the wall as possible — hoping and praying something would stick.
In 2016, Del Mar suffered through 23 horse deaths at its summer and fall meets. A range of surface-specific salves included hiring renowned track superintendent Dennis Moore, increasing the amount of veterinarians and checks, cutting a week from the schedule to increase track prep time and much more that turned the tide.
