Answer to Question 1

As a result of testimony from the surgeon general that 70 percent of the boys who had poor nutrition 10 to 12 years ago were rejected by the draft, legislation was introduced to give the school lunch program permanent status.

Answer to Question 2

Factors that can trigger program planning include the following:
 Results of the community needs assessment.
 Mandate from an organization's national office or from a federal agency.
 Research findings.
 Community leader or coalition.
 Availability of funding for new programs.
 Government policy.
One or more of these might prompt the planning. For example, recent research findings and results of a community needs assessment might indicate the same need, and thus funding might become available for programs to alleviate that need.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Children with strabismus (crossed eyes) can be treated. They are not able to outgrow this condition on their own, but with help, it can be more easily corrected at a younger age. It is important for infants to have eye examinations as early as possible in their development and then another at age 2 years.
