Keidel: From Cuba To Canelo, Erislandy Lara 12 Rounds From 'American Dream'
If boxing is to save its vitality, it needs vital boxers to fight each other. Seems simple enough, an athletic algorithm that serves the sport and its fans.

Keidel: Mayweather And Alvarez Fight For The Soul Of Boxing
Alvarez and Mayweather are fighting at a catch-weight of 152 pounds, which, if you're looking for an edge, would probably point to Alvarez, the naturally larger man. But Mayweather has a way of making larger men look small.

February 20, 2013
Q'Straint and Sure-Lok announced a new market segmented sales restructuring effective Feb. 1 for the U.S. region. The sales team will now be organized into four core segments: Transit, School Bus, Paratransit, and Personal Mobility. This strategic shift to a segmented approach was motivated by the desire to better serve customer needs. Special Needs equipment is becoming more pervasive in public and private vehicles and demographic studies are showing that the number of users necessitating securement continues to rise. The regulations mandating a transportation infrastructure that is accessible and flexible grow in sophistication. Finally, technology that makes securement safer, more efficient and user friendly requires complex engineering and integration experience. Now, the Q'Straint and Sure-Lok teams can further specialize their knowledge base in the transportation segments relevant to the customers they serve, according to a company statement."Most importantly, we wanted to improve our ability to respond to and support our customers and OEM partners", said Q'Straint's Director of Sales, Jim Reaume. Adding, "We also needed a structure that gave us the foundation and flexibility to support future growth. The changeover will take a bit of time, but our sales group is actively communicating with customers that may be affected to ensure a seamless transition."The Q'Straint and Sure-Lok Sales team was recently augmented with the addition of two additional sales reps. Coincident with this organizational announcement, Trisha Nolen has just been hired as the Southern Regional Sales Manager as part of the School Bus/Paratransit market segment. Trisha has 20-plus years of business and technical experience specific to the bus industry and is based in Dallas.

Although it was sadly not an isolated incident, the bloody death by stoning of a 17-year-old girl has sparked controversy about sectarian strife and gender relations in Iraq, which some believe have taken a sharp turn for the worse since the beginning of the war in 2003.
L.A. Times:
A slender, black-haired girl is dragged in a headlock through a braying mob of men. Within seconds, she is on the ground in a fetal position, covering her head with her arms in a futile attempt to fend off a shower of stones.
Someone slams a concrete block onto the back of her head. A river of blood oozes from beneath her long, tangled hair. The girl stops moving, but the kicks and the rocks keep coming, as do the victorious shouts of the men delivering them.
In the eyes of many in her community in northern Iraq, 17-year-old Duaa Khalil Aswad's crime was to love a boy from another religion. She was a Yazidi, a member of an insular religious sect. He was a Sunni Muslim. To Duaa's uncle and cousins, that was reason enough to put her to death last month in the village of Bashiqa.

Today Zachary had his speech therapy assessment with an independent Speech and Language Therapist named Gill.
We had decided to see an independent therapist after we were invited to a Parent Empowerment session by the NHS Speech Therapists and felt that the 'invitation' itself was rather patronising – a two-hour session with no children allowed and they would only see Zachary for therapy sessions based on what I told them, not them assessing him themselves.
I contacted Gill through her website and she was able to offer me an appointment within a week and coming to our home to assess Zachary.
Paul had taken Abigail with him to Jake's tennis lesson and as Kyla was upstairs, it meant that I could talk to Gill about Zachary and she could assess him without too many interruptions and distractions.
Gill took the usual history of Zachary – pregnancy, birth, illnesses, problems etc. Then we moved on to what is going on and what he can and can't do etc.
Once a history and background had been taken it was time to assess exactly where Zachary is at with his speech and development.
Gill had brought a range of various toys with her and got down to play with Zachary.
First of all she had some stacking cups. Gill sat stacking the cups, with Zachary watching, and then let Zachary stack them. She was looking out for a number of things – how well he understands, does he get frustrated if he can't do it and does he ask for help.
Zachary picked up the stacking cups fairly quickly. He didn't get frustrated when trying to stack bigger cups on top of smaller cups – instead he looked at Gill, which was him asking for help.
Another game they played to gauge his understanding of objects was a lift out puzzle game. Gill wanted to see if he could repeat any of the objects and whether or not he could grasp where they needed to go. Again, Zachary was ready to play and knew straight away that the puzzle pieces went in to the holes. Gill would show him each piece and say the object. He said his own version of "teddy bear" and when she showed him a tea-cup, he made a pouring action, and similar with the phone, he put his hand to his ear as if he was talking on the phone.
It was quickly established that Zachary was and in fact has been signing to us, without us intentionally realising! I didn't think much of it when he comes to me, looks to the kitchen, looks at me and then points so I follow him – but that is in fact a 3 step communication method.
Gill advised that as he has already established his own signing method, that he was a great candidate to start using sign and so she taught me a few simple Makaton words as we are going to start using this with Zachary to encourage him to communicate with us.
From then on, Gill was using Makaton when she spoke to him. She played a game of bubbles with him which he thoroughly enjoyed. She would blow some bubbles (making the sign of bubbles to him), he would the laugh hysterically whilst chasing them around. She would then put the lid on and wait for Zachary to ask for more – and when he looked at her for more she made the Makaton sign for more whilst saying the word. Gill showed Zachary this sign twice and then he did it straight away when he wanted her to blow more bubbles.
He did his usual screeching, and Gill very quickly picked up on that sometimes he does it for no reason. She believes that this is a sensory issue and that he could be doing just because he likes the vibration it makes in his throat. She also mentioned that teeth grinding is a sensory sign – which he does also! She encourage deep pressure cuddles when he screeches to reassure him. These are methods which are used with autistic children, but she reassured us that Zachary doesn't have signs of autism – although to us, already having one child with special needs isn't a big deal if he was.
Zachary is so desperate and eager to communicate, but just cannot seem to get the words out – which we think may be linked to his hypermobility, so we are going back to the doctors to push for a hospital referral to get a full development check.
I am so glad that we had the assessment done. We know that Zachary is an intelligent boy and has great understanding, and his frustration is because he is non verbal, but he will talk one day – that we are certain of. Hopefully we can now learn Makaton and teach him so he can communicate with us until his words come.
11 Comments on Speech Therapy Assessment
Glad you are making progress – and that you had the assessment done, sounds very positive. Zachary sounds very clever and I am sure he will progress quickly. Good luck learning more Makaton. x x
Oh what a positive session!
Harry was referred to speech therapy months ago by his nursery and we still haven't heard anything. I am seriously considering an independent consultation. So pleased it went well for you. x
So glad the assessment was so useful. Zachary is a clever boy
Sounds like some useful learnings, and it was worth going privately. Would the NHS not see him because of his age? We were told (for tongue tie check) that they prefered to wait until 3 to check clarity etc, but once we were referred last August, it took til January because of the rubbish waiting time in Oxfordshire. If I'd realised and we'd gone to Warwickshire (we're on the border), we'd have got a much quicker one- probably within 3 weeks.
It's great that he can communicate at least part in his own way and that you now can use sign to help him express himself. It sounds like a a really worthwhile appointment x
I'm so happy for you xx
Having been through the speech thing with J years ago xx
It's a long road but you are on your way
My son also has sensory issues and struggles with communication although with a lot of input he's coping much better. We had to go private after the NHS told us his hearing and speech were "normal" but I knew things weren't right. Turns out he had hearing loss and chronic ear infections, which have caused a lot of his issues. I also have some sensory processing issues so we don't know if he will be like me or gradually grow out of things.
Anyway, sorry, rambling. Speech therapy, Makaton and some techniques to help him cope have done wonders. I am sure they will help Zachary. I'm glad you got good help.

Political chatter from DC and NYC, the amNewYork way
More cops not the answer
More cops on the street is not the answer! There is nothing that puts civil rights and civil liberties in danger more than a cop driving around alone in a squad car with nothing to do. Certainly cities that haven't seen NYC's drop in crime need help with their local policing, but this is ridiculous! There is a real possibility of joining rural hunters with urban anti-gun advocates, but I doubt HRC is capable of articulating it. Obama appears to be givin' it a try.

Main News Stories About 'Derek':
Ricky Gervais shares Kev's deleted scenes on Facebook
If you haven't heard already the second season of Derek is now available on Netflix and to celebrate Ricky Gervais has shared some seriously special outtakes for you all to enjoy.
Written by Emily Hewett. Metro, 26th June 2014
Derek, series 2, episode 6, review
We had some very obvious attempts at heart-warming that didn't really move very much, partly because the show seems to have been devised by someone of Derek's limited intelligence.
Written by Serena Davies. The Telegraph, 28th May 2014
Should Derek come back for a 3rd series?
Should the Ricky Gervais comedy Derek get another series?

7 life lessons we've learnt from Derek
Ricky Gervais' Derek Noakes has taught us about more than just weird and wonderful knitwear.
Written by Claire Hodgson. The Mirror, 28th May 2014
It's the last in the series, and Derek's dad has taken a bit of a turn for the worse. Luckily, he's still able to confer sage sexual advice, which is handy as Derek has landed himself a date on the internet. Geoff nearly ruins everything with a poorly-timed practical joke but its reception, and a scuffle with Kev, makes him think that perhaps it's time to stop being an unremitting tool. By Derek standards, the usual all-consuming mawkishness is perhaps slightly underplayed for once. But only slightly.
Derek is a so-called comedy about a care home worker with learning difficulties. This self-indulgent vanity project attempts to be movingly bittersweet but is instead mawkish and embarrassing. Most of this penultimate episode was dedicated to a dead dog, while Gervais's eponymous character cried, gurned and mugged for the camera. As deceased pets go, it was no Norwegian Blue parrot.
It's a very downbeat time at Broadhill at the moment: Hannah and Tom are navigating fairly choppy seas in their relationship, as he considers rejoining the merchant navy, much to Hannah's dismay. Kev - currently making sculptures out of the found objects he and Derek go scavenging for - has taken to stealing items from the home's kitchen for his art, which drives Hannah mad. And in between attempts at sneaking in whisky for his father, Derek has to face up to some sudden sad news about a friend.
Derek season 2 - the series so far in GIFs
When Derek's not giving Hannah relationship advice he's watching Kev drink Special Brew from the carpet and/or look up the skirts of the residents. Here is a list of what else has been going on.

Tonight's episode of Derek has been dubbed Ricky Gervais' best ever thanks to a welcomed cameo from Joe Wilkinson.

Derek - Series 2, Episode 2 review
It was all pretty simplistic stuff, but of the kind that never normally gets an airing on prime-time telly.
Written by Caroline Frost. Huffington Post, 1st May 2014
It might be set in a care home, but Ricky Gervais's mockumentary is often cringingly lewd and crude, largely courtesy of potty-mouthed Kev. This week he has a job interview so swaps his habitual tracksuit and can of Special Brew for a dead man's tie and 12-step programme - and somehow manages to look more disreputable than ever. The highlight - briefly recalling the brilliance of The Office - has to be the shambolic interview: you almost feel sorry for Kev.
Hannah and Tom are trying for a baby, so naturally everyone at Broadhill is taking an unhealthy interest in their sex life; Derek has made a copy of Hannah's ovulation chart and times their sex breaks. With a job opportunity at the nursing home opening up, Kev attempts to change his ways, working on his appearance - he has a shower, combs his hair and puts on a dead man's tie, quits drinking and even attends an AA meeting. Elsewhere, a resident's city boy grandson spends some quality time at the home.
Ricky Gervais's Derek takes aim at the elderly
Ricky Gervais wrote Derek, and he's decided it's not offensive - so it can't be, can it?
Written by Jenny Landreth. New Statesman, 28th April 2014
Derek splits judgment: some see it as heartwarming and touchingly witty, others as gormlessly mawkish and actionably insulting to the elderly and mentally challenged. I'm in the second camp. But this opener to the inexplicably recommissioned second series had some decent moments - the extraneous characters are well-drawn - and might grow to become something better than its genesis, if only bloody Derek wasn't clogging up the screen all the time with his idiot-savant saccharine bullcrap.
Review: Channel 4's Derek - series 2
Derek's a bad, ham-fisted, mawkish mess of a comedy; but it's created from the man who launched a thousand TV mockumentaries with The Office.
Written by Dan Owen. Dan's Media Digest, 25th April 2014
The mockumentary format is moribund. The ethics are muddy. The tone is all over the place in everything but its consistent condescension.
MSN, 24th April 2014
I've never watched Derek before, but I decided to dive straight into Series 2 which is currently airing on Channel 4. Normally I loathe skipping episodes, but I'd heard mixed things about the first series.
Overall Derek has come back on the strengths with which it first succeeded and continues to be a highly entertaining show that treads between genre boundaries. Personally, the removal of Dougie takes an edge off of the show for me as he was by far my favourite character, yet admittedly I am a huge Karl Pilkington fan.
Written by Matthew Oates. On The Box, 24th April 2014
There's a massive spider on the wall in the men's toilet at the nursing home where Derek (Channel 4) works. Is it after the fly perhaps? No, because this is Ricky Gervais wobbly hand-held mockumentary style. Who is this camera operator supposed to be though? A recovering alcoholic? A resident? Maybe with Parkinson's? Certainly with no previous experience of camera operation - it's lurching all over the place, zooming in and out, I'm feeling a bit airsick to be honest. Oh for a bit of fly-on-a-wall steadiness.
'Derek' review, series 2 episode 1
Would this have been recommissioned if it had been anybody but Ricky Gervais behind it? Probably not. Is the TV schedule better for it being included? Definitely.
Written by Caroline Frost. The Huffington Post, 24th April 2014
Gervais is just a sniggering playground bully
This show is the most rancid dollop of insincere gloop ever served up on telly.

Things we've learned in Derek Series 2 so far
Ricky Gervais and Karl Pilkington are back for the second series of Derek and we've already learned some pretty important lessons.
Written by Emily Hewett. Metro, 23rd April 2014
It's a fine start overall, with numerous emotional responses neatly housed within an ultimately safe environment.

It can be debilitating, often causing lifelong mental and physical challenges, learning disabilities and behavioural problems.
Its victims are over-represented in the justice and prison systems, often due to impaired impulse control.
In Saskatchewan, three babies are born with it every week.
And the greatest tragedy of all is that it is 100 per cent preventable.
Next Tuesday, September 9, is Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Day. On that day, Yorkton will join 40 other Saskatchewan communities to raise awareness of this disability, which is the result of mothers ingesting alcohol during pregnancy.
At the Yorkton liquor store, volunteers from KidsFirst sporting black "FASD: Let's talk about it" t-shirts will serve mocktails (alcohol-free beverages) and hand out literature.
Maureen Dray, a FASD prevention coordinator with the Saskatchewan Prevention Institute (SPI) said it is exceptionally important to raise awareness because there is a lot of confusing information floating around such as there are some drinks that are safer than others and small amounts won't hurt.
The fact of the matter is there is only one way to be certain and that is to abstain from imbibing for the full nine months of pregnancy. And, since 50 per cent of North American pregnancies are unplanned leaving many pregnancies undetected while women continue to drink, SPI encourages sexually active women to consider birth control.
The Institute also provided the following facts:
Alcohol crosses the placenta, cannot be processed as effectively by a baby as its mother and stays in the baby's system longer.
Alcohol is a teratogen, like rubella, Thalidomide and lead and can cause birth defects.
There is no scientific evidence that any amount of alcohol is "safe" for a developing fetus.
There is no safe type of beverage; alcohol is alcohol whether in beer, wine or spirits.
There is no safe time to drink during pregnancy because organs develop at different times and the brain develops throughout the nine months gestation.
September 9 was chosen in 1999 for FASD awareness by a group of frustrated parents raising FASD children who liked the symbolism of the ninth minute of the ninth hour of the ninth day of the ninth month as a reminder to keep pregnancy alcohol-free.
The City of Yorkton has not officially proclaimed September 9 FASD Day, but Mayor Bob Maloney said he would be amenable.
"If approached I don't see why we wouldn't," he said. "It's a really great cause and there's a lot more children who suffer than people suspect."

TOWN OF PELICAN, Wis. (AP) -- Authorities in Oneida County say a toddler has died after being found in a river that runs along the child's backyard.
The sheriff's office received a 911 call Saturday about 1:30 p.m. reporting a missing 15-month-old in the Town of Pelican.
Deputies say the mother was outside with the child and another sibling. The mother says she went inside to move laundry into the dryer, and when she came back she couldn't find the 15-month-old.
Emergency officials rushed to the home, which sits along the Pelican River. A deputy found the toddler in the water about 30 minutes later, downstream from the home. The child was rushed to a hospital and was declared dead about 3 p.m.
Deputies haven't released any other information, including the child's name or gender.

Once upon a time, family acts were a fairly common occurrence in music: Isley Brothers, Cowsills (the initial inspiration for the Partridge Family, oy), and perhaps the most (in)famous, the Jacksons. Reggae's Morgan Heritage, though, has 'em all beat, if only by sheer numbers. Jamaica-born, Brooklyn-residing singer Denroy Morgan has 28 -- count 'em -- children by a few moms. In the early '90s, Morgan Heritage gave such a bravura showing at the Reggae Sunsplash festival, MCA Records signed it practically on the spot, but its debut, Miracles, was diluted with commercial compromise. Learning its lesson, Morgan Heritage sojourned to Jamaica and recorded with legendary roots producer Lloyd "King Jammy" James. Seven albums later and scaled to a quintet, Morgan Heritage carries on with the spiritual lyrics and rootsy sound of Bob Marley and Burning Spear while absorbing the heavenly smooth harmonies of American R&B and nodding to the "neo-roots" of contemporaries Luciano and Beres Hammond.
Morgan Heritage unleashes its Rasta groove at 8 p.m. Sunday, May 22, at Revolution, 200 W. Broward Blvd., Fort Lauderdale. Tickets cost $15. Call 954-727-0950.

The Newtown Sandy Hook Foundation, which oversees the $11.4 million in donations raised since the Dec. 14 shooting, has stated that the families of 20 children and six adults killed in the school shooting each will receive $281,000 in donations.
The foundation also decided that the families of 12 children who witnessed and survived the attack at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December each will get $20,000. The two teachers who were injured will split $150,000.
Take a look at photos of the victims.
When a gunman opened fire inside a Newtown, Conn., elementary school on Dec. 14, 2012, he cut short 26 lives. Six women who worked at Sandy Hook Elementary were killed, in addition to 20 students -- 12 girls and eight boys.

A term used in insurance underwriting that means the applicant will have to pay additional premiums for the coverage for which he or she has applied. Underwriters often rate a policy arbitrarily to increase the company's "bottom line."
"Damn, if I'm going to get that bonus next year, I'm going to have to get off of my ass and rate some policies."

Test Results
Annually, the Maine Department of Education releases test results to help inform schools, districts and the public about progress being made for individual schools and/or districts on attainment of the State accountability standards.
- Data Warehouse. The Maine DOE's Data Warehouse puts data about Maine's schools in one place where it's easy to find and easy to understand. Results from the Maine High School Assessment (MHSA) are used to populate the following reports within the warehouse: overall summary, participation, performance level and subgroup. This data is sortable, and comparisons can be made across schools, districts and the entire state.
- State-Level School & District Results. These sortable spreadsheets provide achievement level distributions and mean scaled scores for the MHSA tests administered to third-year high school students. To see how individual school(s) performed, see the school-level report. To see how a district performed, see the district-level report. Each report contains full state-level details at the top.
- 2012-13 MHSA District Scores (XLS, 159KB)
- 2012-13 MHSA School Scores (XLS, 181KB)
Result Interpretation Materials
- Compare Score Scales: Traditional College Board vs. MHSA (PDF, 85KB). The relationship between the traditional College Board score scale (200-800) and the MHSA score scale (1100-1180) with associated conversion tables.
- Statistically Significant Differences. This table shows the smallest differences in scaled scores that represent a statistically significant difference in performance based on the number of students tested in the school and/or district.
- Understanding & Using MHSA Reporting Data. This webinar is provided to assist educators in increasing their understanding of the types of reports available, the purposes of those reports and how to read the information contained within each report. During this 60-minute webinar, educators will learn how to access Maine science assessment data for grade 11, strategies for using MHSA data to inform instruction and program analysis, and more about the influence that the Next Generation Science Standards is likely to have on science assessments of the future.

Only in the minds of hack reporters.Cochran has been there for 42 years..he put his wife in a nursing home in Mississippi, and lives in the "basement" of his girlfriend´s house. wink wink. She is his constant "traveling companion". Cochran has no moral compass, and his past record stinks.

I live in northern Mississippi and Thad Cochran has been our senator forever. We have not heard a word from him in years (I periodically check his website to see if he is still even alive!) /s No word from him on any issue until now and he suddenly thinks he deserves to continue to represent us. What a joke! His has been one of the sleaziest campaigns I remember. Time for him to come back home to Mississippi and take care of his wife.

Until we replace the establishment GOP, they will be the source of the most dirty deceitful attacks on Tea Party challengers. But the tricks aren´t working as well. And one by one the establishment is being beaten or retired. The way to win this is at the local level with communication through e-mails and social media.

TAQIYYAHKeep in mind, Islam has an unwavering dictate to its adherents: LIE IF YOU HAVE TO.No other religion has this directive. Islam not only permits but encourages lying to get converts...and if not converts, then power and possession. Challenge anyone who says that Muslims are "friends" or that Islam is peaceful: why do you advocate taqiyyah if you have no ill intent?

Well, yes, it would be interesting if Mark Mayfield, vice chairman of the Mississippi Tea Party, did turn out to be a Cochran operative, because in a way it would make Cochran the Tea Party candidate. But somehow, I don´t think that´s going to happen.

Off the couch: Active options, Dec. 21
- Don't forget to water your succulents. Just because they like it on the dry side doesn't mean they don't need water. If they are really dry, you may need to water them twice because the first time you water them it may run through.
- Keep a check on tropical plants like elephant ears, bananas, cannas, ginger, agaves, and Boston and Kimberly Queen ferns that you may have stored in an enclosed garage, basement or crawl space under the house. They don't need to totally dry out, but they can easily be overwatered causing them to rot. Any rotting foliage should be removed to prevent further decay.
- For some added color and fragrance during the bleak days of January and February, check out your local garden center for leftover paperwhite and amaryllis bulbs that are likely to be on sale now. Look for bulbs that are firm and have not sprouted. To keep your paperwhites from flopping over, add alcohol to the water. For details on this unusual cultural technique, check out this website from Cornell: http://blogs.cornell.edu/hort/2009/11/10/pickling-your-paperwhites/.
- Continue to keep the leaves off your lawn, especially on cool-season lawns, because they continue to photosynthesize during the winter.
- In the event of wet snow, brush it off evergreens as it accumulates, or as soon as possible after the storm. Use a broom in an upward, sweeping motion.
- Avoid using salt to melt snow and ice from your walks and driveway, as it can be harmful to your plants. Several environmentally friendly products are available at home improvement stores.
- As long as the ground is not frozen, you can continue to plant new trees and shrubs, just tuck them in with a 2- or 3-inch layer of mulch. Remember to keep the mulch away from the trunk.
- Pansies will benefit if you pinch off their withered and cold-damaged blooms.

Researchers observing pedestrians in Seattle, Wash., found that nearly one in three people crossing the street at high-risk intersections was distracted by use of a mobile device.
Only one in four followed the full safety routine of looking both ways, obeying the lights, and crossing at the appropriate point, the study found.
Texting was particularly dangerous, said Dr. Beth Ebel, study co-author and director of the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center of the University of Washington.
Texters were four times less likely to look before crossing, obey lights or cross at the appropriate place.
Source: Carol Ostrom, Seattle Times
They also spent more time in the intersection, by nearly 2 seconds, on average.
Ebel said distraction in general — and texting in particular — is associated with risk for pedestrians. Vehicle-pedestrian accidents injure 60,000 and kill 4,000 people every year in this country, she said.

Do Foods Have You in Their Power?
David Spero
November 18, 2009
Most of us try to eat healthfully. Worrying about food is kind of an American craze, but having diabetes can mean taking food obsession even farther. We have to eat the right things, or else! But some foods seem to have other plans for us. Some food is so attractive that many of us can't resist. Is that true for you?
In my book Diabetes: Sugar-Coated Crisis, I wrote that white sugar is addictive in a similar way to cocaine. It makes you feel good for a short while. Then it drops you down lower than before, so you need another fix. I learned about this from a book called Potatoes Not Prozac. Author Kathleen DesMaisons, PhD, reported how her alcoholic and drug-addicted patients recovered only after they stopped eating sugary foods.
I got a lot of criticism for this claim from people who believed you couldn't say sugar was addictive, or even habit-forming. So I was happy to read the best-selling book The End of Overeating, by David A. Kessler, MD. Kessler doesn't use the term "addictive," but he calls modern foods habit-forming in about a dozen different ways.
Food scientists use terms like "craveability" and "irresistibility" to describe their foods. Their marketers will frankly admit, "We're trying to get you hooked." They do this by making food a source of pleasure for your senses: sight, touch ("mouthfeel"), smell, even sound (sizzles and pops.) All this anticipated pleasure excites you and motivates you to buy that food. And that's before you even get to taste it.
Reading about these foods is the fun part of Kessler's book — kind of like watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives on the Food Network. Everything is breaded, fried, sweetened, oiled, fried again, and then has sauce poured over it. I learned some surprising things, for example, about "breaded French fries." Who would have thought of those?
After you swallow, the sugars and fats raise your endorphin and serotonin levels. They make you feel good, especially if you were feeling tired, stressed, sad, or angry before you ate. They give you a psychological reward along with the good taste.
Kessler says that the first five or ten times you eat a food like that, you are motivated by the reward. After that, it becomes a habit. You see, smell, or feel a cue in the environment, or you have a bad experience, feeling, or thought, and your "eat that food" habit is triggered. You don't even have to think about it; your body knows how to do it. When a food choice becomes a habit, it's not a choice anymore. It's automatic, and it's hard to break.
Is This Addiction?
Addiction can also bring "tolerance" of a drug, meaning you need more of it to get the same effect. Addiction also may include physical dependence, meaning you go into some kind of withdrawal if you don't take the drug regularly. Do these things happen with foods? I think sometimes they do, although Wikipedia says they are not "defining characteristics of addiction." Certainly, if you go too long without food, you will get some nasty withdrawal symptoms!
Kessler's book seems to focus on the "obsession" part. If you can't stop thinking about food, if you worry about it all the time or think about the next meal while you're eating the current one, you have the habit.
The last section of his book talks about changing these habits. I'm not sure this section is very helpful, but I'll discuss it next week.
I think the concept of food affecting us emotionally and creating dependence ("habit" or "addiction") is important. I would think that having such habits interferes with diabetes management. Have you experienced anything like that? Are there particular foods or restaurants that trigger you? And if it happens, how do those experiences affect your self-management? How do they make you feel? What do they do to your blood glucose?
I fully agree with this observation. I have said this for quite some time. Food can definitely be addictive. Of course in this capitalist society (which I fully believe in) we are influenced greatly by the professional marketers. We are programmed for this stuff. For instance, the other day I went to a movie. I had just eaten large piece of stuff crust pizza. I was full, but when I entered the theater I bought some popcorn and a drink (the drink was diet!) It was the feeling that the movie experience would not be as pleasurable without it. Must be a strong motivator for me to have bought this stuff especially at the amazingly high price I paid! It sure would be nice if we could alter these programs toward broccoli or carrots! In some ways the addiction is much the same as for drugs. Technically it is a drug addiction. The drugs your body releases to make you feel good are as addictive as any. Good article, Jeff
Posted by: JEFF | Nov 23, 2009 03:29 PM
Yes! Food is addictive. And not just for diabetics and / or heart disease patients. It affects many of us. My husband will not admit to an addictive personality but it is there. There are certain things that he will never turn down, i.e. a beer when offered or wine. Even if it is something he normally says he doesn't like. Now if there is something that I really really love it and it is offered, I will take a serving but I will stop if it is taken from my sight. I don't think about any more but leave it in front of me and I continue to nibble. I have caught my husband going thru the pantry looking for my cooking chocolates because of a "craving" for chocolate. I love ice cream too and try to buy it in the small single serving containers, so we don't over eat. Hubby will get the last serving and gobble it and never even tell me it is all gone until I look for a snack. He hides this behavior from me too. He is addicted. He is not a diabetic but does have heart problems. I have been unable to make him understand that his addictive behavior affects me also and not in a good way. What do you do with someone that will not admit to addictive behavior? How do I protect myself for his bad habits? I know I have enough of my own without having to share his behavior. But there are just somethings that cannot be ignored. S
Posted by: Susan | Nov 25, 2009 10:05 PM
Susan, how do you change someone else's behavior? It's hard enough to change your own. I think you want to reward behavior similar to the ones you want him to do. Like if he eats a healthful meal, you could, without even connecting it to his diet, give him some extra kisses or a massage or something. It works with mice.
Posted by: David Spero RN | Nov 30, 2009 08:50 PM
Wow. I realize your blog was written a while back but while doing a search for "do foods have addictive characteristics" online, I came upon this article. I have been overweight all but about one day of my life. I have dieted. I have lost weight. I have gained it back again and again. Having grown up the child of an alcoholic who is now deceased, I am concerned that I "inherited" that addictive gene. I have never had a fondness for alcohol but I am a sugar addict. I would love to substitute every meal/food with anything sugar laden. I get to work and start thinking about the jelly beans on the reception desk. About 9 a.m., (within minutes of arriving for work), I'm in them. An hour later, I'm craving lunch. After lunch, I want more sugar. After dinner, I want sugar. At a record of 229# this past year, I said enough is enough. At 44 years of age, I have accepted that I have the "addict" gene. I began to do some research online and found out how many calories I should be eating a day and set some goals for myself. I'm not going to overcommit to anything (like 2 hours of exercise a day). I want this change to fit in to my life without much fanfare. I started a 1200 calorie a day "Lean Cuisine" diet. I set my goal to get to my target weight by the end of the year, not the end of the week. I have hit plateau after plateau. Each of them was caused by set backs and diversions from my Lean Cuisine plan. It started at Easter with the variety of food offered. I didn't over eat, I just ate food that I used to crave. For weeks I couldn't get back on track. This happened whenever I ate "normal" food and continues to happen when I travel or go to a family gathering where I eat food that I wouldn't normally at home. About a year ago, I began to get concerned that I may have developed diabetes. Afraid to go to the doctor to find out, I decided to make some lifestyle/diet changes to see if the problem would remedy itself. Although I'm happy to say I've lost 25# and feel MUCH better, I am obsessed with sugar. I have breakfast (I still haven't found a decent cereal that doesn't list the second ingredient as sugar) and then want a doughnut. It's ridiculous. I understand the high. I want the high. On the other hand, I want to know what foods I can eat that won't cause these sugar spikes for when I do stop doing the Lean Cuisine. What food will sustain me and not cause those peaks and valleys. I try to watch what normal weight people eat and sadly, I see a lot of junk food. It just hasn't caught up with them yet. I will look in to the book you mentioned by Kessler. I definitely need guidance.
Posted by: Sally | Jun 30, 2010 10:09 PM
Sally, I would discourage you from focusing on your weight. Pay attention to how you feel, your glucose numbers, and your blood pressure. If those are OK, you are probably OK. Breakfast may be the key for you. I suggest avoiding the prepared cereals and starting with oatmeal, grits, or something where the list of ingredients is one or two items long. Also make sure you get some protein at breakfast. I don't think Kessler's book will help you. I much prefer des Maisons' book Potatoes not Prozac.
