* Deceptively Delicious Desserts: If it was up to kids, dessert would be the only meal on the menu. Give your little chocolate fans an extra boost of protein and fiber along with their post-dinner treat by serving up double chocolate brownies made with black beans. Kids won’t be able to taste the secret ingredient, and you can feel good about the extra fiber. If your little ones are cookie fans, slip a serving of chickpeas into your next homemade batch for some added plant-based protein.

9 grams of protein, and no artificial colors, flavors, MSG or fillers. * Saturday Morning Stacks: Give Saturday morning cartoons a fun, healthy breakfast to go alongside with detoxifying beets. Mix blended beets into your pancake batter to create cakes with a fun red color that kids will love with the added boost of folate, potassium and iron you want. Drizzle with your favorite maple syrup or fresh berries, honey and yogurt for a complete breakfast.

* Masked Mac & Cheese: Mac & cheese is a kid favorite, but traditional recipes can often be low in protein, fiber and nutrients. Give your mac & cheese game an upgrade with a few simple swaps that pack in protein and veggies without an ounce of detection by even the pickiest eater. For a boost of beta-carotene and vitamin A, grate carrots and squash and blend right in with the cheesy goodness.

To pump up protein while eliminating unhealthy fillers and fat, swap hot dog slices in your next batch for naturally smoked sausages made with high quality cuts of meat. Simply Savory Sausages from Land O’Frost pack in the same flavor youngsters love with 35 percent less fat, at least

With these April Fools’ Day-inspired tricks, you’ll be able to put a fun and healthy twist on your kid’s favorite dishes. For coupons and more information about Simply Savory products from Land O’Frost, visit www. landomoms.com.

Reading Program Is ‘Changing Lives One Student at a Time’

hile parents may understand the importance of reading to their kids at an early age, not all children are born bookworms.

In fact, according to a report released last year by Common Sense Media, adolescents aren’t reading for fun much anymore and their reading achievement hasn’t increased for more than two decades.

Among the findings: girls tend to read 10 minutes longer than boys; and adolescents read more than teenagers.

And yet, one high school is challenging and exceeding this research by promoting and using a reading program that is not only helping its students understand and comprehend literature, but motivating them to read more.

Reading Plus (www.readingplus.com) is an online reading program that changes how, what, and why students read, and according to Jayne Ellspermann, the 2015 National Principal of the Year at West Port High School in Ocala, Fla., is helping her students to develop a confidence in reading that wasn’t there before.

“We have students who have mastered their basic needs, but what we really appreciate about Reading Plus is the opportunity for students, once they’re empowered, to exceed what we would have thought was their po-

tential as they progress through this program,” says Ellspermann.

“As they are empowered, as they increase their reading potential, we are able to leverage Reading Plus to allow these students to become college ready, to increase their ACT and SAT scores, so that the possibilities for our students are limitless.”

The program targets specific skill gaps and helps to push students to meet their goals. In addition to developing basic proficiency, the program can help students move beyond grade-level reading and advance toward college-readiness.

Ellspermann hopes that through the use of the Reading Plus program, students will be empowered and inspired to pick up a book prior to National Reading Day on January 22 (http://national-reading-day.org).

“Reading Plus is changing lives one student at a time every single day,” says Natasha Murphy, the 2014 Florida Reading Association High School Reading Teacher of the Year “I’m able to see this change in my students daily. And it’s an amazing thing.”

Let’s Talk About Rx: Tips To Help Seniors Avoid Medication Mishaps

W

ith multiple doctors and specialists, a variety of dosage instructions and an alternating schedule of refills, managing a medication regimen can be daunting for anyone, especially seniors—but heeding a few hints can help.

and ensure that they understand all the medications they are prescribed and why.

• Create a list of current prescription medications, over-the-counter medications and any vitamins the senior is taking. Share this list with all medical professionals involved in the senior’s care and keep it updated with any changes.

The Problem A recent survey conducted by Home Instead, Inc.—franchisor of the Home Instead Senior Care network, the world’s leading provider of in-home care services for seniors— found that nearly one-fifth of seniors taking five or more prescription medications daily have experienced challenges, including keeping track of which medications they have taken and when.

This type of medication management uncertainty can lead to devastating consequences—from an adverse drug interaction to the need to move to a nursing home. Moreover, this potential risk only multiplies as seniors age or as the number of prescription medications increases.

appearance or demeanor.

This can be a difficult subject for families to discuss. In many cases, seniors have been managing this aspect of their lives on their own for many years and may not be fully aware of potential pitfalls.

• Be on the lookout for any red flags, such as a full pill bottle, which may mean the medication is not being taken. If this does occur or you have any other concerns about the medication regimen, contact the doctor.

Some Suggestions

• Make one doctor the gatekeeper to manage medications and discuss any potential problems with a medication, such as the inability to swallow a pill or a change in a senior’s

• Use medication organizers, such as a pillbox or printed medication tracker. Consider ordering medications from a pharmacy such as Simple Meds that provides prepackaged doses of medications and vitamins to help people stay on track.

How To Recover From Financial Fraud Financial fraud is real and can be devastating—but you can fight back. If you’re ever a victim, it may mean coping with a compromised identity, damaged credit and financial loss as well as anger, fear and frustration.

• National Futures Association (www.nfa.futures.org)

What To Do

If you’re not sure which one has jurisdiction, don’t worry. They regularly route tips and cases of suspected fraud to the most appropriate agency.

Full financial recovery may be difficult, but to improve your chances, it’s critical that you report the crime as quickly as possible. Reporting financial fraud, no matter how small, helps the authorities pursue the criminals.

Very often, perpetrators will dispose of your money immediately after taking it; you may never get it back. Recovery, however, is about more than money. It’s also about protecting your future financial health and finding ways to recover emotionally from the crime. These steps can help you reclaim power from the fraudsters and move forward.

Step 1: Create an investment fraud file. Collect all documentation concerning the fraud in one file in a secure location. The file should include the perpetrator’s name, contact information and any of the fraudster’s purported regulatory registration numbers; a timeline of events; the police report, if any; your most recent credit report from all three credit-reporting companies; and any evidence of the fraud or deception.

Step 2: Know your rights. You have rights under federal and, in some cases, state law. For federal victim rights, check the U.S. Department of Justice’s website at www.justice.gov. For state victim rights, check with the attorney general.

Step 3: Report to regulators. Reporting the fraud to national, federal and state regulatory organizations that oversee investment products and professionals may help you and others avoid a similar fraud. These agencies include: • Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (www.finra.org)

• U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (www.cftc.gov).

Step 4: Report to law enforcement. Reporting the investment fraud to law enforcement is important to help make it possible to investigate responsible parties and prevent damage to others. File a police report or communicate with the district attorney’s office and the state attorney general’s consumer protection or prosecution unit to report the fraud. You may also want to contact the FBI field office and, if relevant, report the fraud to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (www.ic3.gov).

Step 5: Report to the Federal Trade Commission. Use the FTC’s Complaint Assistant at www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov. Lodging a complaint will also enter the fraud into the Consumer Sentinel Network so law enforcement can stop ongoing fraud and track these crimes. This process will not, however, initiate a criminal investigation of your case.

Step 6: Consider civil remedies. You may be able to recover some of your lost assets through arbitration, mediation or a civil lawsuit. If a securities broker is involved in the fraud, you may file an arbitration claim with or without an attorney. FINRA offers an overview of the dispute resolution process at www.finra.org.

Step 7: Follow up. Review the steps you’ve taken and follow up after 30 days with any law enforcement agencies or organizations that serve victims.

Is Your Smile Unforgettable?

I

f it’s true that you only get one chance to make a great first impression, then a picture-perfect smile could be the key, according to a recent study.

In a survey conducted by Kelton Global for the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), a person’s smile makes for a memorable meeting. The survey results found that nearly half of adults surveyed (48 percent) believed that a smile is the most memorable feature after first meeting someone -- more so than the first thing a person says (25 percent), the clothes they wear (9 percent), or the way they smell (8 percent.)

Your smile can reveal more than just your teeth and gums. “It’s about who you are and how you feel about yourself,” Dr. Sidney Markowitz, a cosmetic dentist in Washington D.C. and past president of the AACD, told the New York Times.

But the way teeth look in a smile matters as well. Bad teeth may result in being memorable for all the wrong reasons. More than one-third of people surveyed (37 percent) felt that people with a flawed smile were less attractive, while one-quarter said those with imperfect smiles were less confident.

“It [cosmetic dentistry] creates a better self-image. That’s worth a lot in

today’s highly competitive world,” Markowitz said. “Any edge you can get is an advantage. A great smile is an edge.”

Other findings include: * More than half (52 percent) of respondents say they would smile more if they had a nicer smile. * Thirty-eight percent say they avoid smiling in photographs because of the way their teeth look. * More than half (60 percent) are more likely to pay for a great smile over other cosmetic procedures.

“The smile is our area of expertise, and AACD dentists make it easier for people looking for a job or a new relationship to put their best foot forward,” says Dr. Joyce Bassett, AACD president.

The AACD urges those considering cosmetic dentistry to visit an AACD member dentist.

C O M M E N TA R Y Ag Industry Is Fertile Ground For High-Skilled Positions

H

igh school students interested in pursuing a career in agriculture will likely find job opportunities are ripe for the picking in the coming years.

According to a report from Purdue University, the U.S. will have nearly 58,000 high-skilled job openings per year in the food, agriculture, renewable natural resources and environmental fields between now and 2020. That compares to only about 35,000 U.S. students graduating with degrees in those fields per year for the same time.

One factor driving the demand for skilled workers is the diverse mix of challenges facing farmers. By 2050, U.S. farmers are expected to help increase global food production by 70 percent to feed a world population of 9 billion people. In the near term, farmers must also contend with lower commodity prices, cope with severe weather and labor shortages, and combat greater weed resistance and crop disease.

A new generation of skilled professionals is needed to help take farmers to 2050 and beyond. This includes not only the farm operators who will be expected to apply more sophisticated farming technologies and practices in the field, but the researchers, scientists and engineers who will shape the future of agriculture through research and innovations.

Another factor contributing to the robust job market is an aging workforce. According to a report from the STEM Food & Ag Council, nearly a quarter of industry professionals in advanced agriculture fields such as plant and soil science, food science and technology, and agricultural economics are age 55 or older. Meanwhile, more than 60 percent of principal farm operators are now age 55 or older, reports the USDA Census of Agriculture.

An influx of young talent will be needed in the next several years to replace these workers both in the field and in the lab.

So what can young people who are interested in agriculture do to prepare for an eventual career in the industry?

Find the Right Program: Students should be diligent in evaluating agriculture programs against their personal and career interests. This means seeking out schools that not only offer the right degrees but also provide internship, student-involvement and research opportunities in areas relevant to them.

Get Support: The number of scholarships available to students from different organizations can be overwhelming. Ag-focused scholarships can be a good place to start, especially as companies seek to support more young people joining the industry. For example, BASF has partnered with the American Soybean Association, National Corn Growers Association and the National Wheat Foundation, some for as many as 10 years, to offer a variety of scholarships for students planning careers in agriculture.

“The agricultural industry can sustain success by investing in the future,” said Paul Rea, Senior Vice President, Agriculture Solutions, North America, BASF. “We are pleased to provide scholarships to bright, agriculture-passionate individuals to support their education and assure the sustainability of the industry in the years to come.”

These scholarships are available to college-bound children of the association farmer members. For more information and to apply, interested students should visit the association websites at https://soygrowers.com/award-programs/soy-scholarship, www.ncga.com/topics/education/college-scholarships and www.agrimarketing. com/s/100072.

The future of food security hinges on tomorrow’s ag workforce. Helping today’s students find their calling in the industry can improve the likelihood that key positions are filled—and ensure that a growing world is fed.
