Burgess Bros. HSN
We always knew the Burgess Brothers were destined for big things. The Home Shopping Network and Good Housekeeping has selected them as semi-finalists for the American Dream Initiative. They are traveling to HSN headquarters to pitch their BBQ sauce and cornbread mix. They'll also get guidance about their on-air pitch, but why do they need that when they have us to judge? They're going to give their pitch to us! If they win, they'll be in Good Housekeeping in December and on the HSN.

Ford Tequila Partnership
A car company partnering with a tequila company is a little bizarre, but it's all about sustainability.  Ford and Jose Cuervo just announced that they are exploring the use of agave plants to develop a sustainable bioplastic material to incorporate in vehicles.  Agave plants as cup holders? Soy into car seat foam? Dandelions replacing rubber trees for tires? These are some of the ideas and today we are seeing how the food we eat may soon be in our car!

Manly Minute: Gets Your Kids Into Fitness
We all know that being active is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, but according to statistics, most Americans aren't getting the recommended amount of daily physical activity they need for a healthy life. And the inactivity starts young. According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey done in 2013, only 42% of kids aged 8-11 are moderately to vigorously active for 60 minutes a day, at least 5 days per week (the activity level recommended by the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans). That number drops to just 8% for those aged 12-15. Instead of moving and being active, children spend, on average, over seven hours a day sitting around watching TV or twiddling on other electronic devices. Time spent being sedentary only increases as children get older. And the result of all this sitting around? Research suggests that along with poor diets, our country's diminishing youth activity level is partly responsible for increasing childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes rates, as well as students' decreasing cognitive and academic performance.
