Recommendations for weight loss
Updated On: Jan 03 2013 10:27:10 AM CST
By Sandra Gordon, Pure Matters
The National Institutes of Health reported that nearly two-thirds of U.S. adults were overweight or obese. Each year, countless studies investigate various weight-loss tactics, such as low-fat versus high-fat diets, whether it's beneficial to snack (or not) and the importance of exercise for weight loss and maintenance. Data from large groups whose members lost weight on their own, and kept it off, also has been analyzed to determine how they achieved success.
The latest studies conclude that a successful weight-loss plan is a mind/body undertaking that not only involves monitoring calorie intake and expenditure, but dealing with the psychological side of weight loss and habit change.
But what really works and what doesn't? These seven proven principles can increase your chances of weight-loss success now -- and for the long term.
1. Get mentally prepared before you start.
Kelly D. Brownell, Ph.D., a psychology professor at Yale University, recommends asking yourself two key questions before starting a weight-loss program: "Compared with the last time I dieted, how motivated am I now?" And, "Do I see myself being committed for the weeks, months or years it will take to reach my goal?"
"If you can honestly answer 'Very!' and 'Yes!,' you're ready to take on the challenge of weight loss," says Dr. Brownell. "If you're not mentally prepped before you dive into a diet, you're more likely to mount a halfhearted effort and suffer the inevitable consequence: regaining the weight."
If your motivation level needs a boost, list the negative aspects to staying at your present weight. These could include having increased health risks, low energy or not looking your best.
2. Don't aim to lose any more than 10 percent of your weight in six months.
Forget trying to be model thin or get down to what you weighed in high school. Set a more modest goal by cutting 3,500 to 7,000 calories (one to two pounds) per week from what you normally consume. Even those with life-threatening weight problems are advised to stick to that humble objective. Why?
"Most people aren't able to lose more than 10 percent of their weight," says Gary Foster, Ph.D., who is a faculty member of the Weight and Eating Disorders Program at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. "Even if you could, studies suggest you'll be more likely to gain it back."
Losing so little over such a long time may seem like a small achievement, but it's not if you keep it off.
3. Include regular exercise in your weight-loss plan.
To lose weight, you must reduce your calorie intake. "Studies show exercise alone doesn't produce much weight loss," says Holly R. Wyatt, M.D., associate professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver. Still, you should get in the habit of exercising while in the weight-loss phase of your diet because you'll need it when you move to weight maintenance. "In study after study, the people who exercise are the people who keep weight off long term," says Dr. Wyatt.
Indeed, in a study of 3,000 people who lost at least 30 pounds and kept the weight off for a year or more, 90 percent said exercise was the key to their weight maintenance, according to the National Weight Control Registry. The 2005 dietary guidelines from the U.S. Department of Agriculture recommend 30 to 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise daily to help prevent weight gain, and 60 to 90 minutes daily to help you sustain weight loss.
4. Don't eliminate fat from your diet, but do watch how much you eat.
A calorie is still a calorie whether it comes from fat or carbohydrate or protein. Fats supply energy and essential fatty acids, and they help absorb the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K and carotenoids. Fat contains 9 calories per gram; carbohydrates and proteins contain 4 calories per gram. So, eating 1 gram of fat gives you more calories than 1 gram of carbohydrate. Reducing the amount of fat you eat is one way to limit your overall calorie intake. Eating fat-free or reduced-fat foods isn't always the answer to weight loss, if you eat more of the reduced-fat food than you would of the regular item. For example, if you eat twice as many fat-free crackers as regular crackers, you have increased your overall calorie intake. Remember, just because a product is fat-free, it doesn't mean that it is "calorie-free." All calories count!
5. Avoid snacking.
According to a recent University of North Carolina survey and analysis of nationwide food consumption of more than 63,000 people, Americans' snack consumption has increased more than 50 percent over the last 20 years. Such "snackaholic" habits could be contributing to America's collective weight problem. Snackers eat the same amount at meals as nonsnackers, so they end up eating more total calories, according to studies by David Levitsky, Ph.D., professor of nutrition and psychology at Cornell University.
6. You can eat the foods you crave -- every now and then.
On special occasions -- say you really want the chocolate cake and ice cream at an office party -- go ahead and dig in. For her book Eating Thin for Life, Anne Fletcher, R.D., surveyed the diet habits of 208 people who lost an average of 64 pounds and kept it off, and found that successful weight losers don't deprive themselves of foods they crave or love.
"But they have control systems for tempting foods so they don't go overboard," says Ms. Fletcher.
7. Weigh yourself regularly.
To maintain weight loss, don't ignore your scale and go by other indicators, such as how well your jeans fit. Instead, play the numbers game and step on the scale once a week.
"A weekly weigh-in can accurately help you monitor your weight, so you realize when you're in relapse," says Dr. Wyatt. If you gain five pounds or more, she advises immediate action. Ask yourself what you've been doing lately that might have caused the weight gain, then make changes to lose those extra few pounds within the month.

Marcio Jose Sanchez, Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Professional athletes frequently get traded to other teams, but San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis is about to be the first ever to be traded like a stock.
Davis, an eight-year veteran of the National Football League, is serving as the litmus test for a risky concept: Whether sports stars should be treated like public companies, whose moneymaking potential can be bought and sold on an exchange by ordinary investors. San Francisco-based Fantex Inc. plans to operate the exchange and will orchestrate Davis' initial public offering of stock after getting regulatory approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The deal requires Fantex to pay Davis $4 million in exchange for 10 percent of his future earnings, including some of his off-field income. To cover Davis' fee, Fantex seeks to sell 421,100 shares of stock at $10 apiece. The company hopes to complete the initial public offering in the next few weeks.
Davis, 30, will need to make more than $40 million just to deliver a small return on Fantex's investment in him.
Fantex is counting on him to earn most of that money after his current contract with the 49ers expires in 2015. By then, Davis will be at an age when it might be difficult for him to land another big payday, although there are precedents for it. That means the deal could prove to be more profitable for Davis than the investors who buy the Fantex stock tracking his performance.
IPO expert Francis Gaskins is advising investors to stay on the sidelines. Fantex's concept "just sounds like something that P.T. Barnum would try to sell," says Gaskins, president of IPOdesktop.com. "I don't think it's going to work out."
Fantex CEO Buck French has been trying to overcome skepticism while traveling around the country for pre-IPO meetings that began in early February. The journey included traveling to 12 cities in two weeks last month on an old bus that retired NFL announcer John Madden used to ride to get to his broadcasting assignments.
"We are successful businessman and we are putting together a transaction we believe in," French says.
Fantex will cover its expenses by taking a small cut of the revenue generated by Davis. Investors who own the Davis tracking stock could profit from a combination of the player's earnings and gains in the value of their shares.
The income will come from Davis' career football earnings dating back to last October, as well as any money he makes from off-the-field endorsements or other jobs, such as sports broadcasting, that he gets during the rest of his life.
The deal only covers earnings tied to his success as an athlete. If Davis decides to do something like sell insurance after his playing days are over, Fantex won't receive any of that money. His income from his holdings in a Jamba Juice franchise and a San Jose, Calif. art gallery is already excluded.
The NFL itself has become a huge business that has created more opportunities for its star players to get rich.
The league's annual revenue now hovers around $10 billion, up from about $4 billion 14 years ago. Commissioner Roger Goodell has set a goal of reaching $25 billion by 2027. Most of the money is coming from TV networks that are willing to pay steadily higher fees to attract large audiences that watch games live instead of on DVRs later — a major draw for advertisers.
Major League Baseball, with annual revenue estimated at about $8 billion, and the National Basketball Association, with estimated annual revenue of about $5 billion, also are thriving.
As the stakes in sports are rising, so is the money paid to athletes. Forbes magazine's 2013 list of the world's 100 top-paid professional athletes required a minimum annual income of $16 million. New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, with $51 million in annual income, led the 13 NFL players who made the Forbes list.

Google Unveils IaaS Compute Engine
The Google Compute Engine will offer Linux virtual machines.
We've heard from many of our customers that not having an IaaS was a barrier to adopting many of our other cloud services.Urs Hölzlesenior vice president of technical infrastructure, Google
Expanding its portfolio of cloud computing services, Google is launching an IaaS (infrastructure-as-a-service) package, called Google Compute Engine (GCE).
"We've heard from many of our customers that not having an IaaS was a barrier to adopting many of our other cloud services," said Urs Hölzle, Google senior vice president of technical infrastructure.
The service will be available as a limited preview, with access available only through Google's salesforce. The company did not offer an estimate of when the service would be generally available.
Google will demonstrate the new service during the Google I/O developers conference this week in San Francisco. In a keynote talk Thursday, Hölzle plans to show the service running a single application across 600,000 processor cores. "This will showcase we have the scalability to run very large applications at very high performance," Hölzle said.
The service will be available as a limited preview, with access available only through Google's salesforce. The company did not offer an estimate of when the service would be generally available.
By entering the IaaS market, Google is following Microsoft, which also recently added Linux IaaS services to its Windows Azure PaaS (platform as a service).
The service will offer the ability to run Linux virtual machines (VMs) based on either the Ubuntu 12.04 or the CentOS 6.2 Linux distributions. The distributions run over the KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) hypervisor. The service also comes with storage and networking capabilities. To offer additional management functionality with the service, Google has also partnered with a number of software vendors, including Puppet Labs, RightScale and Opscode.
The company will initially market the service to those who will need 100 or more VMs. The ideal workload would be more compute-intensive rather than I/O-intensive. Administrators can add more cores to an application while it is still running.
Google has made it easy to combine GCE with other Google cloud services, notably Google App Engine (GAE). "You will be able to combine GAE, BigQuery and GCE to form larger applications, and we expect many users to do that," Hölzle said.
VMs will be available with either one, two, four or eight cores, with each core allotted 3.75GB of memory. Running a standard single core will cost US$0.145 per hour, with additional costs for networking and storage.
The company has achieved pretty good adoption of its Google App Engine PaaS offering thus far. Launched in 2008, the service currently hosts 1 million active applications. Collectively the services get about 7.5 billion Web requests per day. The Cloud SQL executes 50 million queries per day and the datastore conducts 2 trillion operations per month.

AICPA Amends Guidance on Component Auditors
by Terri Eyden on printer friendly
By Anne Rosivach
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) has just released Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 127, Omnibus Statement on Auditing Standards–2013. SAS No. 127 amends two sections of SAS No. 122, Statements on Auditing Standards: Clarification and Recodification:
- AU-C Section 600, "Special Considerations–Audits of Group Financial Statements (Including the Work of Component Auditors)," and
- AU-C Section 800, "Special Considerations–Audits of Financial Statements Prepared in Accordance with Special Purpose Frameworks."
AU-C Section 600
AU-C Section 600 expands on the primarily reporting content of AU section 543, "Part of Audit Performed by Other Independent Auditors," which provided guidance on situations where two or more auditors reported on parts of a multiple-unit entity.
AU-C Section 600 applies whenever there is an audit of "financial statements that include the financial information of more than one component, including combined financial statements of components under common control, or group financial statements."
The AICPA publication "AU-C Section 600–Audits of Group Financial Statements" (taken from Clarified Auditing Standards Toolkit) was developed to assist preparers in implementing SAS No. 127. It advises auditors that the amendments "may require additional work and should be considered when managing audit scope, pricing, and client expectations."
Excerpts from "AU-C Section 600–Audits of Group Financial Statements" follow.
1. The component auditor could be part of the group audit engagement partner's firm in a different location, a network firm, or another firm.
2. Examples of work performed by a component auditor could include:
- A firm in one location uses resources from one of their firm's other offices or from another firm to conduct an inventory observation in another location; or
- A firm audits consolidated financial statements for a parent company and its subsidiaries, one of which has engaged another external audit firm (a component auditor) to audit its separate financial statements.
3. Group engagement partners are required to gain an understanding of the component auditors and determine the extent the group engagement team will be involved in the work of the component auditors, then choose to either:
- Assume responsibility for, and thus be required to be involved in, the work of component auditors, in which case the group engagement team would perform additional procedures and issue the standard report, or
- Not assume responsibility for, and accordingly make reference to, the audit of a component auditor in the auditor's report on the group financial statements.
4. When the auditor chooses to assume responsibility for the work of the component auditor:
- The group engagement team is required to be involved in the risk assessment of a significant component.
- The group engagement team is required to request the component auditor notify the team of any relevant subsequent events.
- Additional communications are required.

In film, the passage of time is always a difficult process to convey. When it's portrayed by different actors for different ages, we always look for differences between them.
Richard Linlater's Boyhood is an astonishing piece of filmmaking. Linklater created a film that gives the viewer the perspective of the life of a boy from age six to 18. Of course this fictional world includes family , friends, teachers, co-workers, etc.

Honeywell Aerospace's 21st annual business aviation market forecast released yesterday predicts short-term record growth and deliveries of more than 14,000 new business jets (not including very light jets) between now and 2017.
Electronic design
Talk about a market in a climb. Honeywell Aerospace's 21st annual business aviation market forecast predicts the industry can expect short-term record growth and deliveries of more than 14,000 new business jets between now and 2017. This year's record sales figures are expected to be even stronger next year.
Since launching the Zing engine data-gathering service at last year's NBAA Convention, Honeywell has been testing the system in a select group of customer airplanes in preparation for its official rollout. Zing eliminates the need for a mechanic to plug a laptop computer into an airplane to download engine operating data. It instead allows wireless transmission of engine information by tapping into the existing GSM/GPRS cellphone network.
Need to monitor the health of your engine? Jet-Care (Booth No. 6641) provides on-condition performance trend monitoring programs with worldwide exclusivity for Honeywell TFE731, ALF502, LF507 and HTF7000 turbofan engines. The company also offers monitoring programs for the GE CF34, Williams FJ44 and Pratt & Whitney series engines.
When Honeywell announced at last year's NBAA Convention in Orlando its intention to build the HTF10000, a 10,000-pound-thrust turbofan engine for super-midsize to large business jets, its Tech 7000 engine demonstrator was in test with a variety of technologies running.
Honeywell will discuss the status of much of its product line, from engines and APUs to avionics, this afternoon and again tomorrow morning in a series of maintenance and operations sessions. A general session introducing the theme "Engage Honeywell for Service" will begin at 1 p.m.
Rockwell Collins' HGS-6605 head-up guidance system (HGS) will be a new option on Bombardier's recently certified Challenger 605.
The agreement, said John Desmond, v-p of head-up guidance systems for Rockwell Collins, "builds on a long tradition of providing Bombardier with…head-up display technology." That tradition includes the Challenger 604, the CRJ series and the Q-Series turboprop regional airliner.
Garmin edged out Universal Avionics for the top spot in this year's avionics product support survey, finishing in first place in five of seven categories, including overall product reliability. But Universal kept it a close race by winning two categories and finishing in second place in four others.
After years of losing market share to cross-town rival Garmin, Honeywell's Bendix/King division is fighting back with two all-new products for general aviation.
On Sunday at EAA AirVenture Honeywell's Bendix/King division unveiled two new products that are designed to win back market share from rival Garmin. The Bendix/King KSN 770 is a GPS WAAS navigator with integrated VHF navcom radios, joystick cursor controller and 5.7-inch-diagonal VGA display.

4 Ways to Prepare for Success
Success–how should I prepare for it? What should I do? Where should I go? How should I plan? What does God really want? Every day you are preparing for something and Someone. Large task, small task? Doesn't really matter. When you continually prepare, you'll be ready for whatever God asks you to do. Here are four simple ways to prepare for success:
1. Prepare for Success by Loving God
That includes all that He is: Father, Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit, with all that you are: heart, soul, mind. Love Him with the overwhelming desire for every thought, every word, and every action to overflow from a heart of love, joy, and gratitude for the One who loves you. "Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that's in you, love him with all you've got!" Deuteronomy 6:5, MSG
2. Prepare for Success by Loving Others
God adds, "as you love yourself." People are God's priority. That makes it one of ours. "Love others as well as you love yourself." Matthew 27:39, MSG
3. Prepare for Success by Showing Up
Report daily to the King of kings and Lord of lords. "Here I am, Lord, send me!" You can't hear God's voice when you're continually AWOL. "Speak. I'm your servant, ready to listen." 1 Samuel 3:10 MSG
4. Prepare for Success by Being Faithful
No matter what task God gives you, from the kitchen to the boardroom, serve Him faithfully. When you are faithful in little things, God may increase your opportunities. Whether He does or not has little to do with success. The "success" is in your faithfulness to prepare–and serve–every day of your life in a way that brings God glory. "I have chosen to be faithful." Psalm 119:30, NLT.
Remember, your idea and God's idea of success may not be the same. His Word teaches us the difference.
Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. 2 Timothy 4:2, NLT
It's Your Turn

Everyday I prepare for success by spending time with the Lord and seeking His will for my life. As soon as I open my eyes in the morning; I ask the Lord to order my steps and to help me be who've He has called me to be, by walking in love, in righteousness, and being dead to sin. I know that I cannot do anything without Jesus so all my success is to the glory of God.

It is only God who grants success."i know what am planning for u; things that are not bad but good ones and that those who trust in God are like mount Zion;they shall never want" ths shows dat Gods success is upon those who trust in Him

Bankuratire, that's so true. The "success" we prepare for is just knowing and doing His will daily–what He prepares for us.
Got something to say?

Fifty-five per cent of Texas consumers hope to spend more or about the same on the holidays compared to last year.ξ That includes non-gift spending on home/holiday furnishings, socializing away from home, entertaining at home and non-gift clothing.ξ Texans expect to spend $1,380, or 21 per cent higher than the national average of $1,145.ξ
Gift spending will be down seven per cent to $464, compared with $498 last year.ξ The average number of gifts Texans plan to purchase declined to 19.9 from 24.9 last year.ξ
Online purchases will make up a large part of the holiday shopping experience, according to Deloitte's Ed Tauriac.ξ
"What we found is that approximately 22 per cent of the Texans responding said that they plan on using social media as a mechanism to facilitate their shopping this year, whether it's mobile phones and also using coupons that are sent directly through the phone as part of that process, in addition to doing research actually on the PC itself."
More than half of Texans surveyed say they expect the economy to improve in 2010.ξ Ed Mayberry, KUHF-Houston Public Radio News.

TB pivots from an industry about which he clearly knows little, to one that he professes to understand well…and still gets it wrong. Anyone who's worked in or around the print industry knows that if a printer fucks up the job , he eats it; he re-runs the whole job at his own expense, not charging the client for a "correction run." Meanwhile TB amuses himself, if no one else, by name-dropping himself, and (mis-)quoting his Crankshaft strip from a month ago.

Blond Moments
Holly = fat, frumpy and blonde with misshapen head. Donna = fat, frumpy and blonde with HORRIBLY misshapen head. Got it.
–Epicus Doomus
Throw another shrimp on the barbie 'cause here comes another middle-aged blonde woman! The fact Mindy rhymes with Cindy and she's Cindy– err, Cynthia Summers's doppelganger isn't helping matters in today's strip. Living outside of Westview seems to have some advantages though, you don't randomly wake up every six or seven years to find you've suddenly aged a decade overnight.
I don't want to peek ahead, but I feel like I'm Nostradamus or something with what is about to go down. The thing is, Batty Tom has already done the Hey, stranger, your son is in the military? Have my $900 comic for a dollar." schtick. I assume the more issues she gets the ones left over are scarcer and worth more money.
Not to coin nerd out here, but it'd be like finding out a friend of your coworker's nephew from out-of-town is working on a penny collection so you offer to sell him a 1877 Indian Head Cent in XF condition for one cent because you think kids that still collect pennies are cute.

Megaphoning It In
"Easy there, Becky…you're beginning to sound like your mother."
"I see my influence is finally rubbing off on you, Becky."
(No third panel at all)
There, three "jokes" right off the top of my head that would have worked better than having the constantly cackling Dinkle make a stupid irrelevant reference to a character from a different strip no one cares about. This is one of those times when I just can't grasp the logic at work here, unless it's just pure unmitigated laziness, in which case I understand completely.
How many FW readers are even going to get that "joke"? I'd bet that they'll both be confused and be forced to resort to going to the official Batom Inc. website, clicking on "complete cast of characters" and scrolling through the detailed information within in order to…oh, wait. Never mind.

Not the Van'again
It looks like Tombat finally secured enough of a budget to show instead of just tell. A wise move in this medium of art! It may not be enough to keep Les and crowd interested, however, as they're starting to look as bored as most of the readers. I'm not sure why they're facing "Jff" like they're a firing squad but there's not many places to go when a wall of text takes over your living room.
Today we finally get a peek at what went down that fabeled, magical night. Maybe. Actually, today's comic left me even *more* confused than at the beginning of the week!
Filed under Son of Stuck Funky
Mr. Machina is my father. Call me Deus.
There's several tropes to check off here; a known fact being repeated endlessly, (Yes, we've known there was a struggle in the van for about three weeks now) a wall of text expanding at an alarming rate and some very, very plodding story telling.
Today's strip is much more enjoyable if read in Droopy's voice.
Summer Regretting They Even Came Home
DavidO here again, back and snarking after some serious WordPress glitches. On to the snark!
Mentioning the fact that John Darling is Jessica's murdered TV host father over and over was funny at first. Then it got REAL old. But now it's funny again!
Though it may take the next six days for "him" to get out of the car and ring the doorbell, "He" is here! I can only assume from the excitement and clunky exposition that "he" referenced in today's strip is Kevin Bacon.
This Week in SoSF
Hey gang. So I've been in the process this week of moving SoSF to WordPress.com (long story). I'll spare y'all the technical aspects and the reasons why. One of the glitches in the process has been that my sometimes guest-poster davidorth has been unable to login as an admin to write his posts. Hence the sorta sketchy format this week. Until we get things sorted out, please enjoy today's strip.
Addendum: might as well link to today's Crankshaft too, where we glimpse a young couple named Fairgood who are not Darin and Jess.

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
November 29, 2012 at 3:11 am
It's official: Funky is turning into Crankshaft. What kind of time loop led to this?
And I officially agree with Inkwell's comment. Funkshaft's "light at the end of the rainbow" anti-proverb yesterday was the first sign. Today his "by-golly", finger-wagging indignation has blinded him to the irony of registering his displeasure to the postmaster via e-mail.

- The Homelessness Crisis
Don't Forget Shelters' Role in Homelessness Crisis
marty oesterreich
I have no financial interest in the issue under discussion. However, I was the Commissioner of the DHS from 1999 through January 2002.
marty oesterreich
To blame the Department of Homeless Services, as Ms.Biskind does, for the problems it attempts to deal with is perverse. While I have no doubt that there are many DHS processes that should and can be improved or possibly eliminated the assessment as to alternative housing options available to family shelter applicants is essential to maintaining an "emergency" shelter system. Without such a review the system could not operate- it would simply be a "no-cost" housing resevation system. Historically, the legal oversight that closely examined DHS' operations has concurred in the options review subject to a number of of safeguards. Those safeguards are still in place, and operate well. There is no doubt that the system, composed as it ultimately is of overworked individuals, fails on occasions and makes erroneous determination, rectified ultimately through the various re-examination and appeals processes available. However, to describe errors or differences in judgement as "moral" failings does a great disservice to city workers and the agency that I was privileged to lead until 2002. No-one, from the shelter staff to the housing investigators to the attornies reviewing intake decisions comes or stays at DHS because they can exhibit or act on their "moral failings". My personal observation is that in fact it is exactly the reverse.

The Territorial Farmers Association (TFA) welcomes you to our new webpage. After searching and reviewing countless other websites, the TFA board of directors came to the realization that information specific to northern gardening and agriculture was lacking on the internet. At that point, we decided to update our existing site and take on the challenge of create a space with information posted by northern farmers to assist in the successful growth of our industry and to foster an agriculture community throughout the Northwest Territories. This site will be maintained and updated frequently with new articles, tips and advice from some of the most inspirational and progressive gardeners North of 60.
The Northern Farm Training Institute had a very exciting and successful first season in 2013.

THE HOLIDAYS ARE SUPPOSED to be a happy time. And yet, a gray mood hangs over Wall Street.
The climatic moment will soon approach that will help determine if options traders tilt toward bullish or bearish options plays.
The last five trading days of the year, and the first two trading days of the next year, traditionally form what is known as the "Santa Claus seasonal rally period."
"This year," Larry McMillan, principal of McMillan Analysis, says, "there is a full day of trading on Dec. 31, but only a half day on Monday, Dec. 24. So, the bullish seasonality might start as soon as this coming Friday. Bulls are hopeful that this will stem the tide of selling."
Usually, McMillan says, Santa-inspired trading incites a rally of 2% or so in the market over that period. But, alas, there is a Grinch-like flip side to the seasonality.
"If Santa Claus should fail to call, bears will come to Broad and Wall," McMillan adds. "Meaning that when the end of the year does not see a seasonal bullish pattern, there is often a nasty selloff in the beginning of the next year, often lasting for months,"
While hoping for the best, but listening to our inner bear that hates to lose money, Striking Price Daily gravitates back to the struggling retail sector, revisiting the scene of a recent recommendation to sell May 50 calls on Tiffany. tif -0.69% Tiffany & Co.

We reasoned then, as now, that luxury retailers may be in for a tough time. Since then, Tiffany stock has declined from about $49.80 to its recent price of about $46.
Credit Suisse has a good idea for trading the whole sector rather than just picking on Tiffany.
Sveinn Palsson, a Credit Suisse derivatives strategist, recommends investors sell January 90 puts and January 100 calls on the Retail HOLDRs (RTH).
The "strangle," as the strategy is known, is well suited toward current market conditions because implied volatility is elevated in reflection of investor uncertainty about the market's direction.
Moreover, RTH may be range-bound. RTH is down 13.4% since summer, and four of the top five constituents have tumbled lower this year. Target tgt -0.46% Target Corp.

Palsson said selling the strangle produces a return $2.05 in premium, and remains profitable as long as RTH trades between $88 to $102. RTH was recently trading at $93.30.
The RTH strangle is good for speculators interested in wagering on the fate of the retail sector, and also for investors who own retail stocks, or are long the retail sector.
The strangle is a good way to enhance the yield on a call overwrite strategy. RTH has maintained downside support since 2003 at 90, so selling the puts creates an opportunity to pick up additional premium.

Any recipe that includes the phrase "You will need three bowls" may appear to be a bit of a faff, but I assure you, making your own chicken nuggets is absolutely worth it.
