Vegetarian and vegan children
Cucumber sandwichVegetarian and vegan diets can be a healthy way of eating for all age groups – provided that enough thought is given to balance youngsters’ diets. There are potential pitfalls (getting adequate amounts of B12 and iron, for example, is likely to require planning) but provided that parents (and teenagers) understand how to balance their requirements, vegetarian and vegan diets can be healthy and adequately nutritious
A First Look at HTML 5
Officially, HTML 4.1 was supposed to be the last word on HTML. According to the W3C, HTML 4.1 was complete and concise, and required no further work. But that was not good enough for the HTML user community, who formed the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG). This group grew strong enough to force the W3C to form an official HTML 5 working group a few years ago, and what they have eventually created is the very small seed that will one day become HTML 5 (I say ‘one day’ because the official specification expects HTML 5 to be completely functional and ready by the year 2022 – and no, that wasnt a typo, I did mean 2022).
Ok, I see the look on your face. Why the heck would you want to start using a version of HTML that will only be complete two decades from now? The answer is simple. HTML 5 is already being implemented into browsers right now: Opera 10 as well as Firefox 3.5 are the first browsers offering partial HTML 5 support. Internet Explorer and Safari are set to follow suite shortly. However, more than this is the simplicity of the built in functionality of HTML 5. Read on and you may find that you can’t wait to start using HTML 5 yourself. Let’s jump straight in and explore the new features that HTML 5 offer.
