For eight months, the White House had obfus- cated the truth, delayed hear- ings and pressured potential whistle-blowers to keep quiet. Then, on May 8, three highly respected State Depart- ment officials—Gregory Hicks, Mark Thompson and Eric Nord strom—testified under oath before a House commit- tee. These men had experi- enced the tragedy of Benghazi firsthand. Their testimony was heartfelt and sincere—at times emotionally agonizing. Above all, it was believable. Gregory Hicks, the number two diplomat in Libya at the time, provided the most rivet- ing account. He told the com- mittee that as soon as the U.S. compound was attacked, Amer- icans on the ground knew it was terrorism. Hicks said that when he spoke with Chris Ste- vens on the phone, just min- utes before the ambassador was murdered, Stevens told him they were being attacked.

Some young parents also switch to this diet. The safety of vegetarian diets, especially vegan diets, is very important, especially during pregnancy. Unfortunately, reference publications do not provide coherent data on the safety of vegetarian diets during pregnancy. On the one hand, the vegan diet has advantages because it reduces the risk of heart disease and gestational diabetes. On the other hand, vegetarians/vegans should be aware of potential deficiencies of some nutrients (iron, zinc, vitamin B12, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, iodine) and the clinical consequences for the fetus. For example, iron deficiency may affect cognitive abilities, behavior, intelligence and increase the risk of preterm birth and low birth weight of infants. Plant food contains non-haem iron with variable absorption. Therefore, the vegan diet should include nutrients increasing the bioavailability of iron, e.g. ascorbic acid, carotene and retinol. Due to the fact that animal food is the main source of vitamin B12, vegans are at a very high risk of vitamin B12 deficiency, which will affect the infant’s weight at birth.

  • Raw Food Pioneers
    Raw Food Pioneers The first thing you notice upon stepping inside a raw-food kitchen is how fresh it smells: gingery, lemony, herby, garlicky, cucumbery, even slightly pickled. Like walking into a zesty bowl of fruit salad or a tangy plate of bruschetta. Minus the bread, of course. You’ll never smell bread baking, bacon crisping, or mozzarella bubbling in a raw-food kitchen. Well, not unless the “bread” is dehydrated, gluten-free, and made of chia seeds and almonds; the “bacon” is actually wafer-thin, dehumidified eggplant; and the “mozzarella” is made entirely from cashew paste. Welcome to the world of vegan raw food: turn off your oven, pour dairy milk down the drain, and put down that meat cleaver. “The term ‘raw food’ refers to food that hasn’t been cooked, treated, or processed in any way above 42°C (115°F),” says Irene Arango, raw-food chef and co-owner of NAMA Foods, the Notting Hill eatery that’s spearheaded London’s raw-food scene since 2013. “Food cooked above this temperature starts to lose vital vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. Our food is 100% meat-, wheat-, dairy-, and gluten-free. It’s vegan, unprocessed and – it’s worth saying – just as nature intended.” Arango began eating raw a decade ago after witnessing the remarkable effect the diet had on friends. “Back then the term ‘raw food’ was fairly uncommon, even in places like New York,” she says. “But two of my friends tried it and within six months were completely new people, with improved health and energy.

The Ames City Council will be discussing a proposal to use fuel contracts to purchase fuel for CyRide, in which CyRide would agree to buy enough fuel for a two-month period at a predetermined price. Currently, CyRide purchases fuel every seven to 14 days and pays market price for the thousands of gallons of fuel. Under the pro- posed fuel contracts, the fuel expenditures would be more stable, which could reduce CyRide fuel costs.
