You know all those stories about college girls gaining weight in their first year of school? The dreaded “Freshman 15”?
Yeah, it’s a total lie.
That’s right — freshmen do NOT gain 15 extra pounds when they’re away at college due to the awesomeness of the college cafeteria meal plan.
We all have those friends who tell us, “please don’t email me about that website. We’ve seen it already.”
Web Watch will admit — while we try to make every post we share with you a new and timely one, every once in a while we dig back into our website archives to bring you a link to a site or something else on the web that may be a little dusty in terms of timeliness.
Hey, it happens. We’ve shared literally thousands of links with Web Watch readers over the years — a few of the more common sites may filter through on occasion.

Business Ethics: Case Studies and Selected Readings
Do you know what your SLAVERY FOOTPRINT is?
Think about it — where you live, the clothes you wear, the products you buy… much of it comes from overseas where business ethics and governmental oversights may not be as stringent as they are in America.

Population Control: Real Costs, Illusory Benefits
Today they expect there to be 7 BILLION PEOPLE ON EARTH.
That’s a lot of mouths to feed, people to clothe, waste to process.
One could expect that the Earth — or our modern infrastructure — was not built to sustain this type of function. More people just means more needs: from power to water, places to live, medicines, beds, etc…
No more does the old adage of a man and a wife deciding to procreate to have two children to replace them when the parents die; we’re seeing larger and larger families come around in countries around the world, putting a strain on systems that were never designed to carry that type of load.

Show of hands: how many of you read while sitting on the toilet?
Yeah, we thought so — reading (or using your smartphone or iPad) while dropping the kids off at the pool has become a habit by almost everyone. Web Watch cringes at those who take their office paperwork with them to the bathroom stall before a meeting, knowing that the next stapled handout we receive may be covered in fecal matter.
Yeah, not a pretty image to think about, is it? But you’re going to think about it next time you see your boss head to the bathroom before your next staff meeting, aren’t you? Yeah, we thought so.

Zumba Fitness Total Body Transformation System
With Halloween right around the corner, we’re at the start of the annual Winter Get Fat season (comprised of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s, Super Bowl, Valentine’s Day — combined with all those weekly college and pro sports that require copious amounts of beer and wings every week).
So it should come as no surprise that fitness companies are already figuring out what they need to do in order to help us stay fit and healthy — or at the very least, get us back on the healthy road for the rest of the year come January 1st.
Web Watch knows that there are people out there who absolutely love what they do for work. They wake up happy, go to work happy, come home happy.
Some jobs are just designed that way – to provide happiness.
Other jobs are more drudgery, and are done because somebody needs to do it and get paid for it.
CareerCast recently did a survey of the most overrated jobs, basing criteria on stress levels, physical demands, possible employment outlook down the road, regulatory or other pressures in the workplace,
