Episode 30, March 01, 2007
Turn your stove off, put those pots and pans away, and prepare to be dazzled by a delicious meal made from fresh, raw fruits and vegetables. But wait! They're not just healthy and delicious: Raw foodists are claiming a lot more than that.
Raw foods are delicious, they're easy to prepare, you'll probably spend less money on food, you'll spend less time washing dishes, and you're a lot less likely to burn yourself in the kitchen. Nobody denies any of these benefits; I certainly don't. What I do deny are some of the other, less honest claims that some of the more militant raw foodists make. I don't know why they make these claims, since most of them are so obviously untrue. Raw food is already a great thing; it doesn't need to be defended or supported by lies.
I should point out that I am a huge raw food fan. Nobody likes raw food more than I, or eats it in larger quantities. However, my raw food diet consists mostly of fish in Japanese restaurants, and it only supplements my regular diet of normal food. But by making this disclosure, I do claim full protection from the appearance of bias in this episode.
Let us now listen to some of the disingenuous claims made by some raw foodists:
Animals in the wild don't get sick because they eat a natural, raw diet.
Apparently, a lot of raw foodists honestly believe — or at least say that they believe — that wild animals don't get sick, and therefore we wouldn't either if we only ate raw food like animals, as if that's the significant difference between people and wild animals. In fact, disease is the major cause of mortality in wild animals. Check with any of the various wildlife groups who send veterinarians and biologists out into the jungles of the world to care for wild animals. This claim is especially hard to support given the numerous high profile cases of disease in wild animal populations: avian flu, chimpanzee ebola, widespread hoof and mouth disease, bubonic plague in rats.
The correlary claim is that raw foodists will not get sick. Unfortunately there is not a single example in the whole human race of someone who doesn't get sick, so this claim is just as untrue. Of all the original raw food gurus who have since passed away, please note that they have all passed away.
Eating raw foods will increase your lifespan.
Humans are living longer than ever before, and that's shown through overwhelming evidence. This is due to modern health care. You can try to debate this point and say that cooked food makes us live shorter than we naturally should, but you're on thin ice. All the evidence is completely against you. The argument is purely faith-based.
By far the greatest driver in longevity is heredity. Diet is not a significant factor, statistically. Actually there is some recent research showing that 80% of centenarians have abnormally large HDL particles, compared to 8% of the general population.
On a related note, I am intrigued by the low-calorie longevity. As you probably know, lab mice live 50% longer when fed an extremely low-calorie diet. There is a group of people who call themselves "life extensionists" who eat low-calorie diets. It should be noted that the significant factor in this diet is low-calorie: not vegan, not raw, not organic, not free of corporate hate energy; simple low-calorie is all it takes. But since there are not yet any long term clinical studies on humans, we can't yet assess whether what's good for mice is good for people, but it is still interesting.
Because of the same mathematical curiosity that we discussed in the Natural Hygiene episode, people who adopt a raw food diet can genuinely claim to have average lifespans that are longer than the general population. This is because most raw foodists choose to adopt the lifestyle during healthy adulthood, when they're already past infancy and early childhood where many deaths occur in the general population, thus bringing down the general population's average life expectancy. When any group composed largely of adults claims a longer life expectancy than the general population, be skeptical of the reasons they give. It's true of all adults.
Humans are the only primates who eat meat.
You'll hear this a lot from raw foodists, but it's simply not true, as a read of any reference material, or a trip to any zoo, will reveal. Almost all apes are omnivorous. At one extreme you have baboons, who have been known to hunt goats and sheep in packs. At the other extreme you have gorillas, who eat insects as a small part of their diet. Most other apes, such as chimps, eat eggs, birds, and small mammals. Anyone who tells you this is trying to support an unsupportable claim: they're simply telling a far-out lie to convince you that eating meat is unnatural.
Cooked food is toxic.
I'm not even sure how to answer this one. Obviously, if cooked food was toxic, everyone on earth would have died long ago. Generations ago. Tens of thousands of years ago. Every speck of evidence shows quite conclusively that everyone talking about this is, well, alive. Cooked food is not toxic, or else we'd be dead.
Cooking makes organic compounds non-organic.
Let's review what an organic compound is. Ever take o-chem in college? Organic chemistry is the study of carbon compounds, and organic compounds are those formed by living organisms, with molecules containing two or more carbon atoms, linked by carbon-carbon bonds. These can be double bonds, where the carbon atoms share 4 electrons, or in the case of saturated fatty acids, they can be single bonds, where the carbon atoms share two electrons, and the other electrons are shared with bonded hydrogen atoms. Breaking these bonds would, in effect, make an organic compound non-organic.
So really, the claim being made by the raw food people is that cooking breaks those carbon-carbon bonds. You would have to really, really cook your food to break these bonds. Carbon-carbon bonds will begin to break at temperatures above 750 Fahrenheit, or about 400 Celsius. So if you cook your food in a ceramics kiln, then yes, it is possible to chemically change it into a non-organic compound. But if you're looking for it to happen at regular cooking temperatures, well then, you need to retake your o-chem.
Cooking kills needed enzymes in the food. Without these enzymes, the body cannot properly digest the food.
This is one of the more common claims that you'll hear, and it's based on a gross misunderstanding of digestion basics. Our digestive enzymes are produced by our body, and secreted into our mouth and stomach through glands. Humans do not need to eat digestive enzymes in order to digest. We are not Jeff Goldblum in The Fly.
Moreover, the claim that cooking "kills needed enzymes" is silly on two fronts. First, pretty much anything that you digest gets "killed" in the process — that's kind of the whole point of digestion. Enzymes contained in the food that you eat are broken down into their constituent amino acids by your digestive process, and it's these amino acids that are absorbed through your intestines. "Killing needed enzymes" is pretty much what you want your digestive system to do: break them up into amino acids that you can use. Trumpeting this fact with alarmism as if it's a bad thing, should really give you pause to consider how well these people know what they're talking about.
White blood cells flood the stomach after eating cooked food, because they're trying to fight the poison that just entered the body.
Neither I nor a doctor friend had ever heard of a mechanism by which white blood cells could enter the stomach, except in certain acute conditions involving gastric ulcers, where the stomach is open to the vascular system. The claimed phenomenon of pus in the stomach as a consequence of consuming cooked food does not ever appear to have been observed in medical literature, so this has all the appearances of being just another made-up lie.
Cooking food renders it unrecognizable to the body as food.
Well, again, we have a misunderstanding of the digestive system. The word "food" is just a label that people put on certain things that they eat. I could also eat dirt, and I wouldn't call it food. My stomach doesn't care what I call it: The digestive enzymes in my saliva and my stomach are going to treat it just the same. A raw food guy might eat a banana and a steak, but he's only going to label one of them food. I label both of them food. Doesn't matter to the digestive enzymes, which make no such query and apply no such labels. Regardless of what you call it, the digestive enzymes are going to break down whatever parts of it they can, and the resulting molecules are still going to be absorbed through the epithelial cells in the ileum. The dirt's going to pass right through me, but that cooked steak is going to end up in the raw food guy's bloodstream, nourishing his body, whether he likes it or not. He doesn't have to call it food.
Animals live to a much greater multiplier of their maturity age.
For some reason, this is often put forth as support for raw foodism. Presumably, raw foodists blame human consumption of cooked food for this. Why they draw this particular causal relationship is not clear.
And again, it's another claim that's simply not true, and you don't have to dig very far to discover this. Say that humans reach sexual maturity around age 13, and our average lifespan is around 75. That's about a 6:1 ratio of lifespan to maturity age. By the raw foodists' claim, animals should all be "much higher" than this. While it is true that most smaller animals are higher, most larger animals are right in the ballpark with us, and in many cases their ratios are lower. A lot of animal species achieve sexual maturity when they reach a particular size, not a particular age, so you can't always draw a direct comparison. Bottlenose dolphins, for example, range from 2:1 to 4:1, meaning that they live to be only two to four times their maturity age. Elephants are the same as humans, about 6:1. Gorillas are a little less than humans, ranging 5:1 to 6:1. Siberian tigers range from 4:1 to 5:1. Grizzly bears range from 3:1 to 6:1. In short, the claim is patently untrue, in addition to being irrelevant to raw foodism. The ratio of lifespan to maturity age has evolved in each species by the normal process of natural selection, adapted for each species' needs and environment. Evolution is not driven by recent diet choices.
If you want to eat raw food, by all means, go right ahead. It's healthy and it's delicious. But you can enjoy it without making absurd claims, and you can enjoy it without pointlessly attacking the alternatives. Please be careful that you don't catch E. Coli or salmonella, unless you're one of the people that tries to spread any of the above lies; in which case, don't worry about E. Coli and salmonella. If it's raw it can't hurt you. Eat up.

why cant you eat raw meat?
I eat raw meat and raw fish all the time.
I just don't trust many folk to prepare it.
Having said all that, if raw food is so good and cooked food is so bad, explain the dentition..
We are homo barbeque for a very long time now.
I love raw food but please alties, lose the idea that going completely raw is better than a good varied diet.
Irrespective of blanket arguments about raw versus cooked food there is considerable evidence being evaluated concerning detrimental effects that can come from certain cooking methods. Highlighted are barbecue cooking- grilling meat to the well done stage and beyond, and deep frying - especially of cereals and potatoes
In both cases it concerns levels of carcinogens produced in the cooking process. In both cases the temperature used appears to be a significant factor. Scientific evaluation is underway
The recommendation I have been given is to always boil chips briefly before frying - I understand this is to to remove surface sugars. Then deep fry at a temperature no higher than 190degrees Centigrade. This means using an appropriate oil. I use rice bran oil. I also use this for curries.
To control the temperature I use a small commercial bench model deep fryer
For the rest, I really wish the wheel would turn so that vegetables were cooked a little longer again. I really do not like "half cooked" vegetables
In the old days we did cook for too long (boil for twenty minutes or until tender was the rule) but undercooking is over-reaction
The carcogens are only an issue if you eat a considerable amount, which is a truism for a lot of what appears in the daily mail columns with their eternal mission to classify every known substance as either causing or curing cancer. Or in some cases both with in a few weeks of each other.
As for al dente (or half boiled, blanched, or what ever) it is all a matter of personal taste.if you dont like a crunch ask for easy to chew veg.
Ow! OW! Ow! That hurt...
can a few of you go back to reading textbooks.
Where did the sugars arrive on the surface of your potatoes?
Potatoes need to be mashed (as in enzymatic conversion) to produce sugars from starches.
Par Boiling potatoes may actually produce a modikum of simple sugars on the potato surface.
Phi, when did you invent that, or what magic knife cntains amylases?
Please.. stop the google and get back to your brewing..
Scientific evaluation is far more than well under way. Its a good move to avoid certain foods and certain preps and there are measured reasons why. Folk will do well to avoid media reports of journal articles and read the articles themselves.
But consider, even well meaning specialists make absolute geese of themselves in the media. Documentaries are more often than not wrong in specifics, the google will invariably give a totally incorrect article. Simon and Maggie, unbelievably, stuff it up as well from time to time.
A few journal articles exploring oxidation at carbohydrate surfaces in NO WAY tells you that parboiling potatoes removes maillardable (if there is a presence of amino acids) sugars. Overwhelmingly, the literature suggests that the calorific contribution to any food by broiling in oil is hardly considered and eating such is associated with obesity.
You want to avoid carcinogens?
Drink distilled water frequently and only. Starvation doesnt have a stigma (apparently).
Animals in the wild don't get degenerative disease, in part because they eat a raw diet, in part because their exposure to modern food is little to none, in part because the carnivores haven't abandoned their instincts of eating organs and fat before muscle meat, in part because the herbivores are actually well-adapted to eat plants, unlike humans.
Diet is not a significant factor in lifespan, statistically - this is true. However, it is a significant factor. Most of the centenarians ignore the usual medical advice on diet and eat plenty of fat, organs and meat. That, however, is unrelated to raw food, so I'll get off that tangent.
I agree that the claim of "cooked food is toxic" is wrong, but cooked food usually does have a lower nutritional value than raw, because enzymes, vitamins and polyunsaturated fats can be damaged/denatured by cooking. Consider Pottenger's cats. The ones with raw meat+milk were perfectly fine and very healthy. But when either the meat or milk they got was cooked, noticeable health problems started to show up.
There are many plant foods that need to be cooked, to remove toxins. It is also beneficial to cook vegetables, since it generally makes their minerals more bioavailable. But animal foods are most useful when raw.
considering physiological constraints, that was special pleading...
Again Jonathon..
I like what you wrote about cooked food being toxic. Toxic is a funny word. Because Alcohol and Cigarettes are considered toxic, yet some people live to be 100 while consuming both. But, it could make them less health and happy. It could affect their athletic performance. We need a separate word for things that affect one's quality of life as opposed to something that kills instantly.
Bored and going through the archive again.
There's a line that struck me as extremely odd the first time and again this second time, so I came on to check the references on the transcript. The line about "80% of centenarians have abnormally large HCl molecules.." --As a biochemist/chemist, I was fairly sure that the dimensions of an HCl molecule would only fluctuate on the quantum scale, if at all.
But I see now in the transcript Brian meant to say "HDL molecules" not "HCl molecules." LoL, this makes much more sense as High-Density Lipid Cholesterols can be a range of differently sized molecules. This is quite unlike hydrochloridic acid, which is simply one hydrogen atom and one chlorine atom. In fact, HCl completely 100% disassociates in aqueous solution into H+ and Cl- (hence it's one of the seven strong acids).
I just rechecked one more time and indeed the letters "HCL" are spoken and not "HDL" in the audio. I've never actually found a mistake on my own in a skeptoid episode prior to it being announced on one of the correction episodes. So proud :)
Make a comment about this episode of Skeptoid (please try to keep it brief & to the point).

Over the past decade, accelerometers have increased in popularity as an objective measure of physical activity in free-living individuals. Evidence suggests that objective measures, rather than subjective tools such as questionnaires, are more likely to detect associations between physical activity and health in children. To date, a number of studies of children and adolescents across diverse cultures around the globe have collected accelerometer measures of physical activity accompanied by a broad range of predictor variables and associated health outcomes. The International Children's Accelerometry Database (ICAD) project pooled and reduced raw accelerometer data using standardized methods to create comparable outcome variables across studies. Such data pooling has the potential to improve our knowledge regarding the strength of relationships between physical activity and health. This manuscript describes the contributing studies, outlines the standardized methods used to process the accelerometer data and provides the initial questions which will be addressed using this novel data repository.
Between September 2008 and May 2010 46,131 raw Actigraph data files and accompanying anthropometric, demographic and health data collected on children (aged 3-18 years) were obtained from 20 studies worldwide and data was reduced using standardized analytical methods.
When using ≥ 8, ≥ 10 and ≥ 12 hrs of wear per day as a criterion, 96%, 93.5% and 86.2% of the males, respectively, and 96.3%, 93.7% and 86% of the females, respectively, had at least one valid day of data.
Pooling raw accelerometer data and accompanying phenotypic data from a number of studies has the potential to: a) increase statistical power due to a large sample size, b) create a more heterogeneous and potentially more representative sample, c) standardize and optimize the analytical methods used in the generation of outcome variables, and d) provide a means to study the causes of inter-study variability in physical activity. Methodological challenges include inflated variability in accelerometry measurements and the wide variation in tools and methods used to collect non-accelerometer data.

Many breast cancer cells facing potentially lethal antiestrogen therapy recycle to survive, researchers say.
About 70 percent of breast cancer cells have receptors for the hormone estrogen, which acts as a nutrient and stimulates their growth. Patients typically get an antiestrogen such as tamoxifen for five years to try to starve them to death, says Dr. Patricia V. Schoenlein, cancer researcher in the Medical College of Georgia Schools of Medicine and Graduate Studies.
"About 50 to 60 percent of these women really benefit from hormonal therapy," says Dr. Schoenlein. Why others don't has been asked for at least two decades.
One reason may be breast cancer cells switch into a survival mode that normal cells also use when faced with starvation, according to research published in the September issue of Molecular Cancer Therapeutics. Dr. Schoenlein also is reporting on the research during the 2nd World Conference on Magic Bullets (Ehrlich II) Oct. 3-5 in Nrenberg, Germany.
It's called macroautophagy autophagy means "self eating" and within a week, breast cancer cells can reorganize component parts, degrade non-essentials and live in this state until antiestrogen therapy is stopped or the cells mutate and resume proliferation in the presence of tamoxifen. "It's like taking your foot off of the gas pedal of your car," says Dr. Schoenlein, corresponding author on the study. "The cancer cell is in idle, unable to grow or replicate. But the cell is smart enough to use component parts generated by macroautophagy for the most necessary things required for survival." She notes that macroautophagy can't be maintained indefinitely; cells can actually self-digest. "This is a time-buying strategy."
Chemotherapeutic drugs are more direct killers but also kill healthy cells and can be tolerated by patients only for relatively short periods. Antiestrogen therapy is more specific, targeting breast cancer cells that express es

Can you say road trip?
A Canadian high school hockey team from Kenora, Ontario, made the 1,500-mile journey to take part in the Taos Tournament this weekend.
The Canadians, though, are making a little side trip.
On Thursday morning, the Los Alamos Hilltoppers will play host to the Saints of St. Thomas Aquinas at 10:15 a.m.
Los Alamos also will take part in the Taos Tournament but for now, it is focused on its Canadian visitors.
According to the Kenora newspaper, the Kenora Daily Miner and News, the idea for the trip came from Saints coach Travis Batters. He and school board trustee Mike Faveau were in Northern New Mexico a few years back and made some contacts.
According to the newspaper, Batters said they looked at possibly attending the tournament last season, but said it was too late for proper planning.
The whole team and their parents have worked on some fundraising to help out and Batters said there was a "buy in" with several families making plans to travel to Taos to support the Saints at the tournament.
Along with the exhibition game against Taos, the tournament guarantees the Saints a total of four games Friday and Saturday in Taos with the possibility of two more on Sunday.

Class of 1982 Fall Letter
Fall 2012
Hello and Happy Fall to You!
Because we had our 30th reunion dinner on October 6th, I talked to many of you face-to-face recently; but since not everyone was able to make it back to Decorah, here I am writing my usual fall note.
I hope all of you who were at the reunion get-together had a good time. I certainly had a fun evening catching up with as many people as possible. The evening proved to be too short to speak to everyone though, so I do hope you will consider sending in a note with an update so I can write about you in the next letter.

An ex-con apparently couldn't contain his sexual desires for a minute longer, leading to a rather awkward encounter in his brother's driveway.
Weber County Sheriff's deputies said they were called Saturday to a man's home near 5000 South and 3500 West because he noticed a vehicle in his driveway he didn't recognize and he could "hear" people outside.
When deputies arrived, they said they found a man and woman having sex inside the vehicle.
Deputies said it turned out the man inside the vehicle was the homeowner's brother, who had just been released from prison after 20 years.
Officials said the ex-con and the woman did not have permission to be on the property, were given trespass notices and told to leave.

Alert all Twihards and/or lovers of bridal fashion! We now know who will be designing the second most-anticipated wedding dress of the year! Carolina Herrera has been tapped to create Bella Swan's gown for the last installment of the Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn.
While the movie is being split into two, the wedding scene will be in the first part, which is being released in November. Zac Posen was initially rumored to be designing the dress — alas, he was just one of the many designers who provided sketches of theoretical almost-vampire bridal frocks. And after all that speculation, the Twilight peeps confirmed Herrera's involvement via their official Twitter account last night.
But what will the dress look like?! In the book, Bella's dress is described as being fairly old school, which was reflected in the Stephenie Meyer's illustrated guide to the trilogy. In the recently released trailer, all we can see is Kristen Stewart wearing a veil pinned to her head with a really pretty crystal-encrusted comb. Sigh. But, ideas, we have them! Check out photos from Herrera's past bridal collections (as well as the trailer) below. Oh, and we have a picture of Bella and Edward's wedding invitation. (Yeah, we're excited about this movie.)

this is some kind of spaceship or something.
Were you invited to the Swan-Cullen nuptials?

If swine flu were worse, 'we would have really been in trouble,' expert says
TUESDAY, Dec. 15 (HealthDay News) -- The outbreak of the pandemic H1N1 swine flu has revealed serious flaws in the nation's ability to respond to public health emergencies, a new report says.
The report, prepared by the Trust for America's Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, also finds the dire economy has strained the already underfunded public health system.
"The 2009 H1N1 outbreak is the latest in a series of reminders -- from September 11 to the subsequent anthrax attacks to hurricane Katrina -- that the nation's public health system needs to be ready to respond to a major health crisis," Richard Hamburg, deputy director of the Trust for America's Health, said during a Tuesday morning teleconference.
"The H1N1 flu outbreak vividly exposed serious underlying gaps in the nation's ability to respond to public health emergencies," he said. "On top of that, trying to respond to the pandemic in the middle of the worst economic climate since the Great Depression meant that we were asking public health officials to try to do more with less as budgets, and staff were stretched well beyond their limits."
The United States tends to respond to the crisis of the moment, but fails to commit to fund and enact programs to ensure ongoing public safety, Hamburg said.
"This Band-Aid approach to preparedness needs to change," he added.
According to the report, 20 states scored six or less on 10 indicators of emergency preparedness, and almost two-thirds of the states scored seven or less.
Arkansas, Delaware, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas and Vermont scored the highest with nine out of 10. Montana scored the lowest -- three out of 10.
Money spent over the past several years for public health preparedness did improve the nation's ability to meet the challenges of the

Inclusion (value and practice)
- This article for the general inclusion concepts in organizational environments. For the use of the term in the sphere of disabilities see Inclusion (disability rights).
|This article should be divided into sections by topic, to make it more accessible. (April 2014)
Inclusion is an organizational practice and goal stemming from the sociological notion of inclusiveness which is the political action and personal effort but at the same time the presence of inclusion practices in which different groups or individuals having different backgrounds like origin, age, race and ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation and gender identity and other are culturally and socially accepted and welcomed, equally treated, etc.
Miller and Katz (2002) presents a common definition of an inclusive value system where they say, "Inclusion is a sense of belonging: feeling respected, valued for who you are; feeling a level of supportive energy and commitment from others so than you can do your best work."[1] Inclusion is a shift in organization culture. The process of inclusion engages each individual and makes people feeling valued essential to the success of the organization. Individuals function at full capacity, feel more valued, and included in the organization's mission. This culture shift creates higher performing organizations where motivation and morale soar.
Gasorek (1998) notes her success of instituting diversity and inclusion initiatives at Dun & Bradstreet, a credit-reporting firm.[2] Hyter and Turnock (2006) offer several case studies of engaging inclusion with corporate organizations such as BellSouth, Frito-Lay, Home Depot, and Procter & Gamble.[3]
Roberson (2006) notes that the term inclusion is often coupled with the term diversity and these terms are often used interchangeably. However, they are distinctly different.[4] The Institute for Inclusion, a nonprofit organization, has collectively attempted to define inclusion apart from diversity. It has developed a set of core values and general principles and conceives of inclusion as requiring a paradigm shift in human consciousness, awareness, and interaction.[citation needed]
Interactional participation skills are not currently standardized in formal evaluations of communicative competence, and there will probably be much controversy surrounding any proposals to standardize the testing of interactional competence. Nonetheless, we need some set of inclusion guidelines to decide what skills to look for and how to document them. (page 116, Sawzin, 1984)
This study focused on the aspects of Jennie that can be appreciated. "Positive analysis" is a strategy which has much utility in many contexts, but is very much needed in the lives of children and adults with developmental difficulties. There are many opportunities for parents, professionals and neighbors to minimize their fears, and to move from expectations of deviance to acceptances of difference. (page 122, Sawzin, 1984)

Connecting To WebAdvisor
The address for myHFCC WebAdvisor is https://my.hfcc.edu/WebAdvisor/WebAdvisor
Your communications to and from this site are protected by SSL encryption. You should see a padlock in your web browser's status bar to indicate the secure connection. You can click on the VeriSign logo to verify the authenticity of your connection.
If you're having problems connecting to myHFCC WebAdvisor, here is a list of common problems:

- Try accessing the WebAdvisor through the link provided above. If you are using a printed copy of these instructions, try using the link on the HFC home page at www.hfcc.edu.
- Try again later. Your Internet Service Provider or WebAdvisor may be inaccessible at this time.
If you can connect to the site but are still having problems, check the following:
- Verify that you have the latest version of Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
- Make sure that cookies are enabled in your browser.
- Check the WebAdvisor FAQ for more information.
After you've connected to WebAdvisor, you can view HFC's schedule of classes anonymously. Beyond that, you will need to log on to the system in order to use it.
Logging on to WebAdvisor
In order to use WebAdvisor, users must first log in. Student logins are created several times daily by an automated batch process, so your WebAdvisor login should be ready soon after you complete the enrollment process. Faculty logins are created after an instructor is assigned to a current course section within the system. Staff and administrator login creation is performed manually.
What's My User ID?
Your login name is generated based on your first initial, middle initial and last name. If you did not provide HFC with a Middle Name or Initial, then it will not be part of your login. Every login on the system must be unique, so if a login with your initials and surname has already been assigned to someone else, your login will have a number after it to make it unique. This number is automatically assigned by the system.
To find your exact login, select the What's My User ID? link from the WebAdvisor Account Information page. In order to find your login name, you will need to provide your last name and either your Social Security Number or HANK ID for identification. If you were recently added to the system and WebAdvisor cannot find your login name, please be patient. Your login should be available within 24 hours.
What's My Password?
Now that you have your login name, you will need your password to log in. By default, your password will be your birth date, in MMDD form. For example, if you were born on August 26th, your password will be 0826. Make sure that you aren't trying to use month and year by mistake.
If your birth date was not in the system when your login was created, your initial password was randomly generated. If your email address is in the system, then you can use the Reset My Password feature to generate a new password, which will be emailed to your registered address. If your email address is not in the system, or you do not receive an email within ten to fifteen minutes after changing your password, call 313-845-6403 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for assistance.
After logging in for the first time with either your default password or a recently reset password, you must change your password manually before you can use the system. It will also be necessary to change your password periodically after you begin using WebAdvisor.
Select a password that is easy to remember but difficult to guess. It must be six to nine characters long and contain both letters and numbers. You will need to provide your login name and existing password for identification, and then provide your new password twice for confirmation. Even though it is optional, be sure to supply a password hint in case you forget your password. A good hint will help you recall your password without giving it away. Using your hint to remember your password is much easier than going through the process of resetting your password at a later date.
Note: Your initial password is also your PIN for TREG and your default password for all other systems, including the Novell network. If your initial password was not your birth date, please contact 313-845-6403 for assistance with TREG. You will also need to submit a Trouble Ticket to DVC to fix your network password.
For additional help please see the Computer Help Desk, which contains consolidated information about all HFC passwords.
I Forgot my WebAdvisor Password
If you have changed and forgotten your password then check the password hint box or use What's my password? for help.
Still can't figure it out?
Call 313-845-6403 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will help you reset it.
WebAdvisor Helpful Hints
Remember that your login and password are case-sensitive. That is, there is a difference between uppercase and lowercase letters. Check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is not on before calling the HelpDesk with password problems.
For security reasons, you should never use your browser's back button to return to a previous page. Always click the menu button at the top of each WebAdvisor page to return to the menu. You may experience strange results if you try to navigate backwards through WebAdvisor.
Please be patient. WebAdvisor can get pretty slow, especially around grade and peak registration times. The system is designed to reject attempts to click the Submit button multiple times, and you will receive an error. After the error, you may have to wait several minutes before trying the same operation again.
Remember to Log Out and close your browser when you are done. This will keep your information secure, especially if you are working from a shared terminal.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Demo
You're right of course, but I just wanted to make a point that after two pages it still wasn't really clear on this thread that that was the case. The Apple 'genius' certainly told me the wrong thing - that the backup contains a complete snapshot of your iPad.
Glenn Broadway Aug 6, 2012 3:29 PM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Chris CA
(sorry don't know how to quote on this forum)
The reason I created a new iTunes library is because the last time I backed it up on my normal library it completely messed up his (my son's) home screens - moving all the icons around and emptying his folders.
It still seems very strange. I think I have to plug in the iPad, stop any Syncs that attempt to start and then go in and work out what to check and uncheck in the Sync settings. I'm still not really sure what settings will ensure that two different iPads on the same Library don't start messing each up.
Demo Aug 6, 2012 3:46 PM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Glenn Broadway
You can sync five iDevices to the same iTunes library and not mess anything up. You can turn off auto sync as well so that you don't have to stop the sync process. You can check the sync settings before you sync. I sync 3 devices to the same iTunes library and each device has its own content.
Launch iTunes and go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices. Check the box at the bottom that says ...Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Click OK. Quit iTunes,
Connect either of the two iPads to your Mac and launch iTunes. Click on your iPad name under the devices heading. Click on the Summary Tab. Check - "Sync only checked songs and videos". Then go into each tab in iTunes ... Apps, music, photos, books .... Select the exact content that you want to sync to that iPad and click on Apply in the lower right corner after you are done making your selections. iTunes will remember your sync settings the next time that to sync. You can make changes every time that you sync if like. Just click on Apply after you make the changes.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Glenn Broadway
I know this is all a little bit confusing. A backup basically saves an exact copy of your device, minus the apps, only to be used if the device needs to be restored at a later date.
Syncing will make sure your iTunes library is the same on the PC and the phone, that's it. In fact, it will not put newly purchased items on the device onto the PC. That is what transfer purchases are for.
So basically if you are an avid user of iTunes on the computer, you would benefit from syncing, that way when you download a song or movie from iTunes on your PC, you will have it on your device, other wise it is pretty useless. There is a lot more to this but that is just the basics. I highly recommend backing up an IPhone on a weekly basis, since most of us rely on this device to live our lives.
I hope this clears tings up. And most of you are right, the "Geniuses" at apple sometimes get it wrong or do not clearly explain it.

I agree. It makes NO sense whatsoever. I've never had problems like this, with such an essential, basic function, with PCs.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Demo
Wow, this is kind of funny reading all these different interpitations of backing up and syncing. I'm glad I'm not alone. So I'll take a shot at it..... So syncing is basically for "current", "real-time", "present moment", updating, thus which can/will only apply or be effective on any given application that is already on there in the first place (backed-up). So just because your synicing i.e. photo vault doesn't meant it will sync if its not first backed up and on the in the first place. Is this true? So if there were no such thing as syncing, then in order for you to feel safe with your all your data , you would basically have to back up every single time you added or altered any kind of information, right? A least if you wanted it current up to that very moment in time.
So tell me if I'm kind getting it.......is it basically like a network at let's say a place of employment where all the employees may have the same program and they all input various bits of information throughout the day yet without being on a network where they are linked (synced) they would never know what the other has added or altered until they backed up at the end of the day. Is this true? Please let me know if I'm on the right track before my brain gets too comfortable with this idea. Cause I might be getting it I hope. Wait though.....what about iCloud syncing, ICloud syncs to right? See I'm lost again. Cause the two will only syncing certain yet sometimes different things, there is another place I'm lost again. Help, help, help

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Mfeelngs
There's a few different things going on with iTunes and iCloud:
- Apps themselves can add functionality to store data to iCloud. But if they don't offer it, there's no real way to do anything about that as a user.
- You can back up your iPhone/iPad/iTouch to iCloud, which does the same as backing up to iTunes, just stored in iCloud.
- You can sync with iTunes on your computer, and this is more about pushing data from your computer to your phone (contacts, photo albums, music, movies, etc) choosing what gets pushed from your iTunes settings for the device.
- You can backup with iTunes to your computer, copying data on your phone to the computer.
It does get muddled a bit more because periodically (chosen by iTunes), syncing will also trigger the backup process. It's still a separate operation, it's just that iTunes decides that a new backup is a good idea since the other one is old.
I know this link appears on the previous page, but I can't push it enough I've written up this article about syncing vs backing up. It's still very true, but it sounds like I should do an update to discuss some of the new iCloud app data stuff too.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Kelly Wilkerson
how do i sync without backup step2??,
as its taking hours, dont even have anything on my device to back up!!!
been restoring my iphone4s 10+ times for days now just cant get it to work properly
Kelly Wilkerson Feb 18, 2013 10:00 AM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to leetut
That is definitely strange. The restore process normally does try to make one last backup before the restore, just in case you change your mind later
I've seen the backup get jammed up before, and that's probably what is happening here. I have a few simpler suggestions to try first:
- Try turning your phone all the way off (holding the top button) and back on (holding the top button until it powers on) to reboot it, in case it's just a one-off problem with the backup process.
- In iTunes, when the long backup is happening, click the small X button or curvy arrow button to the right of the little status bar to tell it to skip that step. It may take a little while to respond to the skip (it has to finish up what it's doing first to skip safely), so you only need to press it once, even if it seems like it's doing nothing.
Let us know how it goes, maybe we can get more fancy with the suggestions otherwise.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Kelly Wilkerson
So, I may know the answer to this question already, but here goes:
I tried to restore my wife's iphone5 from a backup dated 2/2/13. I have plugged her phone into iTunes several times since then, but apparently it has never backed up again since that date. I did the back up, but now have lost all messages, notes, etc. for all Feb. - April! Does this mean, since the iphone never backed up since 2/2/13, and I already restored her phone to that date, that there is no way to get the newest messages and notes back??? Please say it isn't so! Is there any way to get it back to a couple days ago? Please help! Thanks.

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to dlueds
This is a good question and I have a couple of answers. There's still some hope, although yes, in the worst case, there is no backup of that new data from 2/2 until now.
- Before we get to backup looking, let's look for some notes drafts elsewhere a sec.Does your wife sync her notes anywhere? (Usually they can be sync with iCloud or an email account like GMail.) I somehow erased my notes on my Mac (same sync system), but I had a lot of drafts of them in my GMail account since that's where they were syncing. I doubt she's changed her sync settings since February, so the places to look are:
- Settings -> iCloud, to see if Notes is on. I think that means they should appear momentarily?
- Settings -> Mail, Contacts, and Calendars, and her various accounts. See if Notes is checked on for any of those. If so, then there might be some or all of the notes in that email account. I found mine by searching for a phrase that I knew was in the notes.
- Ok, now to backup searching. I think (with strong emphasis on think) that iTunes does a snapshot backup (that just means a backup with a date at the end of the folder name) when it restores. So, you might have a backup sitting there from today. Finding it is another issue
- On Windows, you can search (windows 8) or start->run (windows 7 and below) for %appdata% (percents included). This will open the Application Data folder. From there go into Apple Computer (or somesuch like that), and then MobileSync, and then Backup. You should see some folders with horrid letters and numbers as names, but some with dates at the end of that. Maybe there is one from today?
- On Mac, you want to open finder and hold Option (Lion/Mnt Lion) and select Library from the "Go" menu. Library will only show up with Option held for Lion/Mnt Lion machines. From there, you want the Application Support -> MobileSync -> Backup folders. Same deal as Windows -- nasty device identifier folder names, but some may have dates at the end of the nastiness. We're looking for today.
If you do find the backup, you have a decision to make about which version you want to use on the phone... today or 2/2?

Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Kelly Wilkerson
Ok, so I found the snapshot on my computer! Thank you! Now, how do I get it back to restore onto my wife's phone? What steps do I take?
Kelly Wilkerson Apr 11, 2013 8:51 AM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to dlueds
If you press "Restore Backup...", under Manually Back Up and Restore, do you get a popup box with a list of choices?
If so, do any of the choices for your wife's phone have a backup date of yesterday?
Another thing you can do is go to that backup folder and move every other backup elsewhere for a minute (like your desktop, so you remember to put them back!). That way when you press restore, the only option you should have is the one you want
If you're paranoid like me, you may also want to make a copy of that backup you want on your desktop... worth the extra disk space usage for a few minutes just to make sure that it doesn't disappear on ya.
dlueds Apr 11, 2013 9:54 AM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to Kelly Wilkerson
The pop up box does come up, however, the last date is 2/2/13. I found the snapshot of the other day in the 'application folder' you led me to, however, I do not know how to get that folder to the iTunes? I tried dragging the folder over, but did nothing. Also saved that folder to an external hard drive, and tried dragging over to her phone in iTunes, it had the " + " sign like it would add it, but did nothing either. So, I am stuck with what to do to get that folder as the 'restore' folder? I couldn't find any way to browse for which folder to restore from. It only led to the ones on the iTunes, which was the old date in Feb. Thx
Kelly Wilkerson Apr 11, 2013 10:13 AM
Re: Difference between Sync and Backup? in response to dlueds
iTunes will only notice the backup folders that are directly in that MobileSync -> Backup folder that you found. You'll want to move/copy the backup there for iTunes to notice it.
Sounds like moving all of the other folders in Backup to the desktop for a moment is a good choice, so you can see if iTunes will offer you the snapshot folder.
Just to be sure - the snapshot folder has a bunch of files in it right? They should be ugly names too.
