*sighs* to many doits:( Sadly I can't rate it negative 5 stars.

Also, why do doits avoid goats? I mean, we hate you too, so we're not planning on talking to you. Wait, I mean, I don't even go to silly goats *cough cough*

Also, stop complaining that the silly goats steal your chicken.

"When it comes to diet, many health-conscious consumers have come to the conclusion that protein is king. Specifically: chicken. Diet trends, such as the recently debunked Paleo diet, have overstated the importance of eating a lot of meat. At the same time, consumers have been put off red meat by its associated health and environmental concerns. This has led to consumers increasingly eating more chicken instead.

“There is this perception that protein is good for your health, but I am not sure where that has come from,” says Modi Mwatsama, director of global health at the UK Health Forum. “It’s certainly a good marketing ploy.”

Protein is a key part of a healthy diet – but the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends a daily intake of 50g of protein for adults, not the 75g some people in the US and Europe are estimated to be eating.

The problem is being exacerbated by the limited range of proteins we eat, according to Duncan Williamson, food advisor at WWF, the conservation NGO. “Some people don’t realize you can get protein from plants and fish,” he says. “We need to eat less protein from a greater variety of sources.”

Globally, chicken meat is expected to account for almost half of the increase in global meat production over the next decade, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), as it surges past pork as the world’s most popular meat by 2020.

Chicken also accounts for around half of all meat intake in the US and UK, up from one third in the early 1990s.

In terms of the meat itself, chicken can be a low saturated fat alternative to red meat if you don’t eat the skin and fat and avoid frying. But with UK and US adults already eating 40-50% more protein than needed, on average, there are concerns about the health impact of our growing appetite for chicken, according to Mwatsama.

As well as producing no additional health benefit, Mwatsama says those sticking to high protein diets such as the Atkins or Paleo diet are risking long term health problems. Following a high protein diet in the long term may increase the risk of colonic disease, while low carbohydrate-high protein diets have also been associated with higher mortality from cardiovascular diseases.

There is this perception that protein is good for your health, but I am not sure where that has come from.
Rather than upping our chicken consumption, Mwatsama advises people to switch to healthier sources of protein with low or no saturated fats, such as pulses, beans, lentils, chickpeas and buckwheat, which also provide a good source of fibre.

Chicks reared in less than 40 days require less animal feed (which in the case of Europe includes imported soya linked to deforestation in South America) and produce less waste and greenhouse gas emissions per kilogram of meat than lamb or beef (see this graphic comparing environmental footprint of meats). However, emissions are still far higher than vegetable protein alternatives.

It is these conditions, suggest animal welfare campaigners, that have made chicken such a risk for the spread of zoonotic diseases, such as avian influenza, salmonella and campylobacter, as well as antimicrobial resistance with poultry farming heavily reliant on antibiotics to treat and prevent illness spreading amongst the flock. Campylobacter, which is endemic in poultry, is the source of 280,000 cases of food poisoning each year in the UK and more than 1.3m estimated cases in the US."

See? We're helping you by stealing your chicken.

A false report of an armed man wandering the grounds of Sydney Boys High School sends the school into lockdown on Wednesday.
Students were told to stay in their classroom and hide under their desks while police initially looked for a man thought to be armed on school grounds.

Police and emergency services were called to the school on Cleveland Street in Moore Park about 2.20pm by a staff member after a suspicious man was seen on school grounds and was challenged by a teacher.

But a police investigation found the man was not armed. Reports suggest he was holding a bag and a coke bottle.

ABC reporter Brigid Glanville said her stepson hid under his desk while a policeman was outside the room.

My step son at Sydney boys High who is ok, was told to stay in the classroom and hide under the desk. A policeman was outside the room.

Officers will continue to search for the man, he said.

No one has been taken into custody and there is no suggestion the man was carrying a gun.

"The school was placed into lockdown for a short period of time until the safety of all students and teachers could be assured," police said.

"At no time was a firearm sighted and there are no reports of any injuries," police said.

Students were evacuated to a nearby oval but were allowed to return to their classrooms about 3pm.

Police have launched a search for the man in Moore Park.

He is described as being about 20 years old, and 175 centimetres tall with short dark hair.

He was wearing light blue jeans, a white shirt and a pair of hiking or work boots.

He was last seen carrying a grey shopping bag.

Sydney Girls High School, which shares some ground with its brother school, was not affected.

Cleveland Street has been reopened after emergency services closed the road in both directions between Anzac Parade and South Dowling Street while police conducted their investigation.

My cousin Gilbert goes here, and he really enjoys it. He worked hard to get into the school. I go to Sydney Grammar, and a little rivalry is always a bit of fun.
