Of the 15 supplements included in the study, iron was most strongly linked to an increased risk of earlier death. Women who took iron supplements were 10% more likely to die during the 22-year study than women who did not take them, even after the researchers controlled for several other health and demographic factors.
Hessische Landesanstalt für privaten Rundfunk und neue Medien (LPR Hessen) Elektronische Medien, allen voran das Fernsehen, nehmen einen großen Einfluss auf die Entwicklung gerade junger Menschen. In sozial ausdifferenzierten Gesellschaften kommt ihnen eine zentrale Bedeutung bei der Aushandlung von Normen und Werten zu. Damit dem Fernsehen eine sinnvolle Vermittlerrolle zugestanden werden kann, ist es erforderlich, dem Konsumenten einen adäquaten Umgang mit diesen Medien zu ermöglichen. Das Stichwort Medienkompetenz“ bekommt durch diese Forderung einen entscheidenden Stellenwert. Ziel des MOK Gießen ist es daher die Erlangung und den Ausbau von Medienkompetenz, besonders bei jungen Menschen, zu gewährleisten. Das zentrale Thema „präventiver Jugendmedienschutz“ wird dabei nicht im Sinne der Bewahrpädagogik verstanden, sondern Jugendlichen sollen durch aktive Mitwirkung an Medienprojekten in den folgenden drei Bereichen ausgebildet werden:

Home - Asian Pacific Health Care Venture Straight Talk about Vaccination Last year 10 children died in California in the worst whooping cough outbreak to sweep the state since 1947. In the first six months of 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recorded 10 measles outbreaks—the largest of which (21 cases) occurred in a Minnesota county, where many children were unvaccinated because of parental concerns about the safety of the standard MMR vaccine against measles, mumps and rubella. At least seven infants in the county who were too young to receive the MMR vaccine were infected. These troubling statistics show that the failure to vaccinate children endangers both the health of children themselves as well as others who would not be exposed to preventable illness if the community as a whole were better protected.
Landschaftsarchitektur Unter Landschaftsarchitektur versteht man das Entwerfen, die Planung und Umgestaltung von nicht bebautem Raum. Dazu gehören sämtliche Außenräume, im Wesentlichen Parks, Sportplätze und Freizeitanlagen, öffentliche Plätze und Gärten, aber auch andere Freiflächen im ländlichen und urbanen Raum. Die aktuelle Landschaftsarchitektur definiert sich selbst als ästhetisch-künstlerische Disziplin auf naturwissenschaftlich-technischer Grundlage, deren zentrales Ziel es ist, ökologisch und sozial intakte Lebensumwelten zu schaffen. Im urbanen Zusammenhang wird mitunter der Begriff der „Freiraumplanung” als synonym zu „Landschaftsarchitektur in der Stadt“ verwendet. Freiraumplanung bemüht sich auf allen für den Siedlungsbereich wichtigen Ebenen der räumlichen Planung auch um ein ausgewogenes Verhältnis von Siedlungsflächen und Freiräumen.
