Just Move It 2013
It's time for the 8th annual Just Move It fitness initiative. Join the "UAH Alumni" team and let's start the new year strong.
Just Move It (JMI) is UAH's 10-week campus-wide health and fitness competition, open to all faculty, staff, students, and alumni. The goal of JMI is to encourage everyone to incorporate exercise and healthy behaviors into their daily lives. Participants set a personal fitness goal and then earn points for exercising and other healthy activities. Participants may compete on their own or as part of a team. Participation is tracked online, so you can join the team and participate from anywhere in the world.
As an added incentive, JMI is again taking part in the Scale Back Alabama program. This state-wide weight loss program offers cash incentives to participants who lose at least 10 pounds during the 10-week program.
Registration for JMI and Scale Back Alabama is now open. Please visit www.uah.edu/jmi to register and join the "UAH Alumni" team and get more information about this year's programs.
Questions? Contact Liz Redding (256-824-6007). |

5 Tips to Prevent Home Heating Fires
A Message from Liberty Mutual Insurance
When it's time to turn up the heat in your home this winter to battle the icy cold, follow these simple tips to prevent the chance of fire:
- Hire a professional to inspect and clean your furnace. Maintaining your furnace and ensuring that it's operating properly and efficiently will save you money and keep you free from worry.
- Open your windows when you first turn on your furnace. Choose a warm day to let your furnace burn off the dust and dirt that have collected on its heating element. A residual odor is not harmful, but if the furnace rumbles or produces black smoke, call 911 and evacuate the premises.
- Clean your chimney. Before you cozy up to the fireplace, open the flue and check for obstructions that can cause a build-up of harmful carbon monoxide. Hire a chimney sweep to inspect for creosote, a substance that gradually builds up as wood burns and can ignite in the chimney flue.
- Use electric heaters sparingly. Don't let a space heater run for hours on end. Turn it off at night or when you vacate a room. Move bedding, clothing and other flammable items at least three feet away from the heater. And never leave children and pets unattended near a space heater.
- Handle propane-powered equipment carefully. Follow the manufacturer's instructions, store cylinders outside, and call 911 if you smell a strong odor of gas.
