iPhone Weather App will not update over Mobile Data???
On wifi iphone weather app will update fine but when i search for cities or try to update the weather on 3g with iphone 4s says update failed or no results found driving me crazy
|Dec 15, 2012, 12:15 AM
yes every other app works fine just weather wont update or locate cities over 3g data or edge data
|Dec 15, 2012, 12:25 AM
You try a restart?
Sometimes mine doesnt update the first page but the rest of the cities I have listed get updated with weather data.
|Dec 15, 2012, 07:28 PM
Same problem.
Then I stood next to someone with another iPhone 5 and theres was fine. Then mine would find a city.....once. Now it won't do it anymore.
Everyone else here at my job that has a 4s or 5 has no issues.
I have reset as a new phone and reset settings. No fix.
|Dec 15, 2012, 07:31 PM
I've been having trouble with the weather app as well. It almost never updates, I didn't test wifi with it.
|Dec 15, 2012, 10:44 PM
Mine has been great until about 4 days ago, the current location was saying update failed and the others were updating. The next day I went to mine and all of the cities I had in there were gone. I went to go add them back and they all say location can not be found. Now I only can see current location and half of the time it updates, but only randomly. I thought maybe it was something with yahoo weather but their website seems to not be having any problems, so it doesn't seem like it
|Dec 24, 2012, 10:11 AM
Did anyone find a solution to this issue? I got my iPhone 5 a couple days ago and am having this issue. The weather app and notification center widget update fine over wifi but won't update or find new cities over cellular. I've tried everything I can think of short of a restore and was hoping to find another solution before taking such a drastic step.

|Dec 26, 2012, 11:00 AM
I've been having this issue for a week or two, it says update failed for some of my cities but does update others, and whenever I try to search for a new location it says "no location found." Hope they fix this soon!

Jeez, i thought i was the only one. Mine does exactly the same thing.
Is anyone here JB? I wonder if that could be the cause? But then it did work fine for me right after the JB, but a day later it stops.
|Dec 30, 2012, 10:57 PM
crap. drives me nuts. I already restored and JB'ed the phone 5 times - thinking thats the cause, and still no luck. I wonder if its something else on the servers somewhere?
but are you guys all on ios 6? I'm on 5.1.1
|Dec 31, 2012, 03:29 PM
Same here!
Mine will update only major cities but not smaller towns over cell data, over wifi it works perfectly.
I'm running a jail broken att iPhone 4s on 5.1.1
I've tried resetting all settings, network settings, restart, hard restart, re-synced with the pc, nothing has worked, been having this problem for over a month now.
Somehow I doubt the jailbreak is responsible, everything else works fine over cell data.
Don't wanna restore and update since I'm jailbroken.
|Jan 1, 2013, 10:23 AM
It's strange this haven't gotten more attention, enough people are having issues. Does anyone know of any official cases open with Apple about this issue? I would think they are aware of it by now, but I haven't heard anything.
|Jan 1, 2013, 12:35 PM
I fixed mine by going to Settings>Notifications and removed Weather Widget from In Notification Center to Not in Notification Center. Updates on 3G/4G now.
|Jan 1, 2013, 01:26 PM
|Jan 4, 2013, 12:37 AM
The same problem with my iphone 5. I tried everything the forum members suggested. I can't even add cities if its not connected to wifi.
|Jan 7, 2013, 03:45 PM
Same issue here. Has been going on for quite a while actually.
It's only certain cities though. For example, Baltimore updates fine but my actual city about 10 miles north will not update unless on WiFi
|Jan 8, 2013, 09:47 AM
Hello everyone,
I would like to take a minute to throw in my 2 cents worth.
I too have been experiencing this exact problem since updating to ios 6.
Both on an iPhone 4 as well as a brand new iPhone 5, each on the AT&T network.
The native weather app will update fine using WiFi...but updates fail when using 4G/LTE.
I work for an airline so I travel all over the place. The situation is the same no matter what city I am in.
I have encountered other people with the same issue who were completely unaware of it because when the weather app is launched over 4G/LTE, the window will display the correct time just under the city name, but most people fail to notice that at the very bottom of the window, it says "update failed" and the time of last successful update (over wifi).
Here is what I have done to try an resolve this issue, but without success:
1. Completely shut down phone, and reboot.
2. Hard reset.
3. Toggle on/off Airplane mode.
4. Reset Network settings.
5. Reset all settings.
6. Restore thru iTunes.
Out of curiosity, I took a little trip over to my local AT&T store to see what they had to say.
When I interrupted the employee, who was TEXTING, and I asked her if anyone had reported any problems with the iPhone's weather app, she looked thru me, not at me, and asked what weather app? I repeated the question and she said, "Oh, I never use that". Another employee who overheard the conversation came over and told me that I needed to update to the latest software...that being ios 6.0.2. Now, keep in mind, this was 2 weeks ago and I still had my old iPhone 4. ios 6.0.2 was only issued for users of the iPhone 5 and iPad mini...which I told the employee. He said that I needed to go to the Apple Store and have a Genius PUSH ios 6.0.2 to my iPhone 4....
Yep, that is what he said.
Then, I said, let's go over to YOUR display model and check out the situation there...we did. I turned their phone's Wifi off so that it was on the 4G/LTE network...launched the weather app and sure enough...the update failed.
I showed it to him, and he said nothing.
So, I here I am now with a brand new iPhone 5, running ios 6.0.2 and I have the same issue.
2 different phones...exact same issue.
All other apps on my phone work perfectly using 4G/LTE. Even another weather app that I got from the App store. But that is not the point here.
It would be like an airline ordering a brand new 787 aircraft and being told,
"Yeah, it flies, just a couple of gauges in the cockpit don't work."
So, I have to say, this is either an issue with ios 6...or an issue with AT&T's data network communicating with Yahoo's servers that provide the weather data.
I've said my piece.
|Jan 8, 2013, 10:24 AM
I have an iPhone 5 on 6.0.2, and all is working fine here, through TIM's 3G network in Brazil.
My guess is that there's something wrong with AT&T's network?
|Jan 9, 2013, 01:06 PM
I think it does have something to do with AT&T. My boyfriend's Verizon LTE connected iPhone 5 (6.0) works fine when updating the weather app off wifisearching for cities works too. My AT&T iPhone 5 (6.0) on 3G (no LTE in my area yet) fails to update 98% of the time. It updated earlier this morning at 3:48AM, but most times it hasn't updated in days so it just shoes an empty blue or purple template. Searching for cities is a no go as well.
I've reset settings and network settings. The default cities NYC and Cupertino updated fine, but when I tried to search for my cityno results. Oh and it wouldn't update while I type this out. Great...
So users maybe when you post, also post which carrier you're on so we can help pinpoint the problem?

Short update...
Just finished a compete ios 6.0.2 erase and restore via iTunes. Erased all of my data etc....leaving my brand new iPhone in basically the same state it was in when I bought it...Tried the weather app..."UPDATE FAILED". Turned on WiFi...worked fine.
So, those of you who were thinking that doing this would fix the issue, don't bother, because it does not.
Have an appt tomorrow with Apple Genius...but somehow I get the feeling that those of us who are having this issue will not find an answer.

Club competitions
National team competitions
Sean May has been a consistent top performer for Paris Levallois this season, in both the EuroChallenge and the French Pro A.
The 2.06m center was ranked fourth in the EuroChallenge efficiency ratings table during Regular Season Week 4 action, after propelling the Parisians to a home win over BCMU Pitesti with a double-double of 22 points and 12 rebounds.
On Tuesday, Paris were facing a more demanding mission as they were playing on the road against Belfius Mons-Hainaut, their direct competitors for a place in the Last 16 of the competition.
They needed May to step it up a notch and he did just that, paving the way to a 90-89 victory with 31 points on 12-of-15 shooting from the floor, 11 rebounds and three blocks.
The 28-year-old American reached an efficiency rating of 38, the highest this week anywhere in the EuroChallenge, and is the Regular Season Week 5 MVP.
Veteran Belarusian power forward Dzianis Korshuk led Tsmoki Minsk to an away win at Pizza Express Apollon with his 16 points, 11 rebounds, three assists and three steals, and is second after May, with a rating of 31.
Hapoel Unet Holon edged out Telekom Baskets Bonn 75-70 on Wednesday and they couldn't have done it without Lawrence Hill's 17 points, 11 rebounds and five assists, which brings him to third place on this week's table.

Men's Tennis Picked #8 in Preseason Coaches Poll
January 23, 2012
HIGH POINT, N.C. - The men's tennis team at Queens University of Charlotte comes into the 2012 season with the bullseye on their backs being voted the leagues preseason favorite. Christian Lee-Daigle, reigning Conference Player of the Year, is riding high after winning the Conference Carolinas individual title for the third time in a row and barreling his way through his opponents at the ITA Regionals this fall to take first place. In addition to Daigle returning, Joshua Bloch and Raahil Dhruva are two strong players that will also be back to help Queens. Pfeiffer University was selected eighth in the annual poll.
The Royals are coming off of an undefeated 2011 conference season at 8-0 and 15-3 overall mark. Queens took both the regular season and conference championship trophies and hope that with additions to this year's squad it will make for improved play of the middle and bottom half of their lineup.
"We are pleased with the selection, but know that it will be a tight race this year in a far improved conference," commented reigning Head Coach of the Year Brett Karpman.
Limestone College men's tennis has been picked to finish second overall in Conference Carolinas. The Saints are coming off a 17-6 season a year ago that included runner-up finishes in the regular season and the conference tournament as well as 13 straight wins from February 25 through April 7. Of their six losses, two came to eventual champion Queens late in the season and the other four were against stiff competition early on against, Peach Belt opponents No. 16 Lander, USC-Aiken and Augusta State and South Atlantic member Wingate.
After nearly winning the regular season and advancing to the Conference Carolinas Tournament finals, Limestone returns two of their top three players and six overall heading into 2012. Senior Mike Stephenson anchored the No. 2 singles position last year with a 15-3 record in that spot and 17-3 mark overall and is expected to be among the Saints top players once again.
Junior Rafael Ferla played at No. 3 singles most of last year, posting a record of 15-3 at that position and 17-4 overall. Stephenson and Ferla paired together in doubles for the better part of 2011 and produced a stellar 16-2 record, all at the No. 2 spot. Overall, Ferla was 17-5 in doubles action while Stephenson was 16-6.
Mount Olive College brings back four starters from last year's squad, which was ranked No. 44 in last year's ITA Year-End National Top 50 Poll. The Trojans posted an overall record of 12-8 and finished fourth in the conference standings with a 5-3 mark.
Diogo Sender was named to the 2011 All-Conference Carolinas second team and is one of three returning players who earned Player of the Week honors last year. Akio Mariano and Gabriel Santana were also Conference Carolinas Player of the Week winners in 2011. Murilo Pelegrino was a full-time doubles starter and part-time singles starter last year.
The Trojans are coming off a strong fall, which saw returner Brahm Moolman combine with Henrik Falkenberg for a doubles title and Santana win a consolation singles title at the Conference Carolinas Fall Tournament. Mount Olive also captured first and second place in doubles at the Methodist University Tournament as Mariano teamed up with newcomer Edgar Bub for the title, while Santana and newcomer Rik Wolthuis were runners-up.
Rounding out the men's tennis preseason poll 4-11 is: Lees-McRae, North Greenville, Barton & King (tied), Pfeiffer, Coker, Erskine, and Belmont Abbey respectively.

Blood Money and Other Stories
Blood Money and Other Stories (Mass Market Paperback)
Related Editions
Before he brilliantly traversed the gritty landscapes of underworld Detroit and Miami, the incomparable Elmore Leonard wrote breathtaking adventures set in America's nineteenth-century western frontier—elevating a popular genre with his now-trademark twisting plots, rich characterizations, and scalpel-sharp dialogue.
For every story of inspiring moral courage in America's untamed West, there's one of greed and duplicity, of corrupted souls willingly sacrificed to a merciless deity of ill-gotten gold. The New York Times-bestselling Grand Master brings us seven unforgettable western tales of noble stands and cowardly compromises—and battles of will more devastating than a blazing gunfight.
About the Author
Elmore Leonard has written more than forty books during his highly successful writing career, including the bestsellers Road Dogs, Up in Honey's Room, The Hot Kid, Mr. Paradise, Tishomingo Blues, and the critically acclaimed collection of short stories When the Women Come Out to Dance. Many of his books have been made into movies, including Get Shorty, Out of Sight, and Be Cool. Justified, the hit series from FX, is based on Leonard's character Raylan Givens, who appears in Riding the Rap, Pronto, the short story "Fire in the Hole," and Raylan. Leonard is the recipient of the National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN USA, and the Grand Master Award of the Mystery Writers of America. He lives in Bloomfield Village, Michigan.
Praise for Blood Money and Other Stories…
"Even the earliest of his western yarns show Leonard to be a master storyteller."

A caller told me the other day I needed to get my head out of my rear end.
Only he didn't put it in terms quite so polite.
I recently returned to the newspaper business after a hiatus of about a year and a half. I'm glad to see things haven't changed – newspapers are as despised as ever.
At least by some. And we have a certain group whose members are more than happy to remind us of our numerous faults.
I have a tape of the Southern humorist Lewis Grizzard. On it, he says no matter where you go, ask the locals what they think of their hometown paper and they'll tell you – it's terrible, the absolute worst.
Ask them what's wrong with the paper, Grizzard continued, and they'll answer that it's inaccurate, it's full of lies.
Grizzard paused.
"Hell, it only costs a quarter," he finally decided. "You want accuracy and truthfulness, it'd cost you $3.95."
Even adjusting for inflation, newspapers remain a relative bargain. Dealing with those more than willing to weigh in with a differing opinion remains a challenge for us in the industry.
I worked for the Times-News during a previous incarnation in the late '80s. Jim Wicker was one of my partners in crime.
One morning, Jim strolled by my desk, coffee mug in hand.
"How you doing, Jim?" I asked.
He stopped.
"I've got a woman on the phone who's going to chew my (rear-end) and I told her she was going to have to wait until I got myself a fresh cup of coffee before she does so," Jim said.
So he'd set the phone down and took off for the coffee pot. Took his sweet time about it, too.
I wish I had Jim's gumption. I've never made an irate caller wait until I'd refreshed my beverage before enduring a tongue-lashing.
My first job out of college was at The Messenger – a once-proud weekly in the western reaches of Rockingham County. Dwight Sparks was my editor and boss. Dwight seemed to enjoy encounters with angry subscribers more than most of us.
Dwight once wrote a story about a doctor in town getting a sweetheart of a deal on his new clinic. Thanks to a variety of government grants, the doctor only paid $150 a month for the place.
The day after the story ran, the good doctor marched into the office accompanied by his wife. The pair weren't especially impressed by Dwight's investigative skills, but were more upset with the article's headline: "Welfare for doctors?"
The doctor stood mostly quiet while his wife – known about town as anything but a wallflower – unloaded on Dwight. For a good minute or so, Dwight said nothing while the woman raged. Finally, he could stand it no more.
"If this is therapeutic for you, go ahead," Dwight said.
So the woman did, prompting Dwight to repeat, "If this is therapeutic for you, go ahead," several more times.
After the doctor and his wife vacated the premises, we chuckled about Dwight's gumption.
I worked for the Salisbury Post for 10 years. Frank DeLoache was in charge of the newspaper's reporters.
Like Dwight, Frank had a knack for dealing with those who were – what's a polite way to put this? – less than pleased with the newspaper's efforts.
Frank wore one of those headphone contraptions while in the newsroom. You had to look close to see if he was on the phone or just talking to himself. Either way, everything Frank said could be heard pretty much across the newsroom.
Frank had one elderly gentleman who called on a regular basis to voice his complaints.
Frank never argued.
"Yes, sir, yes, sir," he'd say, seeming more in agreement than debating any perceived shortcomings.
"Well, sir, we're a small newspaper," Frank would say as he wound the conversation to a close. "We do the best we can."
Frank would thank the gentleman and hang up.
One day – after enduring a particularly lengthy verbal assault – Frank turned to the newsroom.
"You know," he announced to anyone and everyone, "some people don't like that man and I can certainly understand why."
Then Frank laughed.
I need to remember to do so the next time someone calls to tell me I need to remove my head from a certain body part.
Either that, or set the phone down and wander off in search of a fresh cup of coffee.

The Ministry of Tourism and the Maldives Tourism Promotion Board strongly condemn the staff members of Vilu Reef Resort who mocked and insulted a couple who were conducting a ceremony to renew their wedding vows. A video of the incident appeared on You Tube earlier this week.
The Ministry was horrified and disgusted by the behaviour of those responsible. While it appears to be an isolated incident the government is launching a full scale investigation into what happened. The Police have also been informed to undertake the investigation of the case immediately.
The government is taking this extremely seriously and apologises to the guests involved and any-one who may have been offended by the incident.
The government stresses that no stone will be left unturned to ensure that an incident like this never happens again.

This toaster oven earned the highest rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it quickly cooked pizza and cookies and maintained a constant cooking temperature. Also described by The Wall Street Journal as capable of doing "just about everything we use the oven for," The Best Toaster Oven's internal temperature varied only 2.89� F when measured at different locations within the oven when set to 400� F, far superior to lesser units that varied as much as 65� F and burned different areas of food, such as the back of a pizza. The Best model has nine settings—the most of any oven—designed for specific foods (pizza, bagel, cookies). It suggests ideal cooking temperatures and times for each foodstuff and automatically adjusts the heat for optimal results. The 1,800-watt oven broils, cooks with convection, and defrosts at the touch of a button, its easy-to-read LCD shows temperatures and cooking times, and the 0.8 cubic foot interior accommodates a 12" pizza or six pieces of toast. 11 1/4" H x 18 1/2" W x 16" D. (21 1/2 lbs.)
"This toaster oven is the best I've ever had. Sturdy, well-thought-out design, multifunctional - toasts, bakes, broils, convection oven and more ...very accurate heating, no more burned toast or items roasted on only one side." - C, New York

High quality and easy to use.
By Zone9
from Brooksville, FL
This toaster oven has almost replaced my large one for daily use. No need to heat up the whole kitchen for a frozen pizza, small casserole or fish filets. Love the plate warmer on top and the controls are simple to figure out. The magnets on the door that pull the tray out in the middle position work great. Preheating takes only a couple of minutes and everything I have cooked so far has come out perfect.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This toaster oven is fantastic
By Chrispy
from New York City
This toaster oven is the best I've ever had. Sturdy, well-thought-out design, multifunctional - toasts, bakes, broils, convection oven and more ...very accurate heating, no more burned toast or items roasted on only one side. Also it is attractive and does not take up much space despite having a large capacity inside. Very easy to clean stainless-steel, has the best "crumb catcher" pan I've seen in a toaster oven - large, deep, slides out easily for cleaning, no more crumbs all over the counter top. Signals when your food is ready. Looks like it could last a lifetime, it's so well made. Service and quality as usual was great. Hammacher Schlemmer delivers quickly even if you have not asked for express shipping and their packaging is great, items arrive in good condition. One truly unique thing about Hammacher is they back their products and deal promptly and courteously with questions or concerns. So if at times their prices are slightly higher (mind you this is not true most of the time) it is worth it in the long run because the "bargain" sites often won't make good on problem sales or they disappear into the night after you purchase. I highly recommend this toaster oven.

Happy with purchase.
By FamilyOf4
from Ithaca, NY
We use our toaster oven for everything: toast, bagels, cheese melts, frozen foods, warming and reheating, pie baking and pizza. We buy one about every 3 years or so and were in need of a new one. We've now had this one two weeks and we are happy with it. Toast comes out reliably, evenly toasted on our preferred setting (6), broiler works quickly and evenly when melting cheese, the bagels are toasted evenly without drying out or being burnt on the underside. The magnetic door took a little getting used to. At first it felt like you were slamming it closed when the magnet catches the door and quickly closes. We don't mind the "pop" with the expansion of the metal. It actually is a nice reminder that your toast is about to be done.It has an economical footprint and a clean look. The display is easy to read. Our two immediate dislikes were the price and that the knobs feel cheap but now that we are used to them we don't seem to notice. We are hoping that this will outlast all of our previous toaster ovens to offset the cost.

I love this
By RubyBlue
from Las Vegas, Nv
I love my breville toaster oven bov800xl. It just arrived yesterday, it's beautiful! I did as was suggested for first time use. Run it empty according to directions in a well ventilated area. We plugged it into a outlet in our garage and let the fumes burn off. It was good i did it away from my husband and our pets. The odor the mfg warned about is bad. We had a window open and the swamp cooler on and i would have to cover my face with a towel to walk in there and check to make sure all was well. So make sure you don't have anyone in the house or any pets when you use it for the first time!! The book says this will only happen with the first time use and they spoke the truth. I have only used it so far to make toast today and it was perfect. I put the browning to 4 and set it for 6 slices. crunchy outside and moist and soft in the middle. And it's very quiet. I am so happy i bought this toaster oven. The only thing i see so far i am unhappy about is it says the illumination shines blue in stand by mode, not mine it's gray like the light is burned out. It's not important. Maybe i read it wrong. Anyway, i love all the functions this toaster oven can do. Can't wait to start cooking and i will make an update after i have used it for a few months. Thank you Hammacher Schlemmer for selling it at such a great price considering your great warranty i got it at a bargain. I am very very happy to have this model toaster oven! I LOVE IT

I have used the product only a couple of times since receiving it about a week ago. It is excellent for re-heating and baking biscuits. It browns evenly. Another feature I like is that the oven heats to the desired temperature quickly. So far, I love it and recommended it to my sister.

one year later
By rem
from manitowoc, wi
I purchased this one year ago and cook nearly everything in this instead of heating a large oven: Previously; I have purchased and used several brands of toaster ovens with different features. This one is basic but attractive, sturdy, and has accurate heat for nearly all of my cooking and baking. I purchased the oven through HS bec of the "Lifetime" quarantee, I'll keep you posted. :-)
Great toaster oven!
By Homer, Marge, and Maggie
from Medford, OR
We bought this unit to replace a Krups unit (I think the electronics on that unit succumbed to the heat from the oven). So far, I've been impressed by the evenness of the toasting and the simplicity of the controls. There are indeed lots of options, but each set of options has its own knob for controls. The unit is larger than my old Krups (which was the largest Krups toaster oven at the time), so the potential buyer should make sure that there is enough room on the counter for it, including a few inches on all sides for proper ventilation.

This really is the best!
By Diana C.
from Washington state
We used to have a toaster oven, but as so often happens, one of our children commandeered it. We didn't realize how much we've missed it until the new one arrived. I think we've used it almost every night. With only two people it's so much better than heating up the big oven. The controls are easy to use and quickly understood. There is flexibility in addition to the automatic settings. It easily takes an 8 x 10 pan. Very nice that it has a timer and not only shuts itself off when done, but emits a loud notice to remind you. Have not used it for toast yet, but am confident it will be great at that too. The back does get quite warm. It is attractive on the counter. I just can't say enough good things about this toaster oven.
Looks Great
By Lil
from Southeast Michigan
It needs extra space around it because of heat generated. Would have liked that information before making the purchase. Love the way it looks and works.

I use it to bake, reheat and toast I love it!

- Got A Question?
We have all experienced it. You're driving down the road and all of a sudden a rock hits the windshield, creating a chip in the glass. What most people don't know is that the majority of these fractures can be repaired — if caught in time — keeping repair costs to a minimum and keeping glass out of our landfills.
In addition, many insurance companies waive comprehensive deductible charges when the customer decides to repair the windshield instead of replacing it. Both parties win by spending less money on a repair. Windshield repair is a permanent solution to an age-old problem. Chips happen, and they can be easily repaired at a minimal cost and with a decent profit margin that can add to your bottom line. And in today's tough economic environment, windshield repair is being recognized by many different industries, such as detailers, carwashes, lube shops and auto dealerships, as a way to positively impact their businesses with an additional service offering.
Savings multiplied
Windshield repair is a great first choice over replacement for a variety of reasons as it:
• Saves money: Repair is a fraction of the cost of replacement.
• Saves time: Repair is fast, usually 15-20 minutes, whereas replacement can take hours.
• Saves glass: Repair keeps the damage from spreading and provides a great looking result.
• Saves the environment: Most people don't know that laminated windshield glass is not recycled. When they choose repair first, it keeps their glass out of the landfill (see photo).
• Retains the original factory bond: Repair brings the windshield back to factory specifications and retains the original factory bond (if it has not been previously replaced), which means safety will not be compromised for drivers and their passengers. An improperly replaced windshield may create a safety risk whereby air bags could blow out a windshield and therefore not provide the intended safety.
A successful windshield repair will arrest the cracking of the glass. With the average replacement cost hovering around $350, your customer is usually happy to live with a barely noticeable repair, while paying a small fraction of the replacement cost. And they may not pay anything out of pocket when utilizing their insurance coverage.
Did you know?
Here are some facts and figures showcasing the benefits of repairing windshields:
• In the United States alone, more than 11 million windshields go into our landfills annually.
• Glass takes more than 1 million years to decompose in our landfills.
• Windshield glass is difficult and expensive to recycle because the glass is two-ply laminated and contains a PVB layer that must be separated. Much of this glass also has integrated heating elements and antenna and cannot be returned to the glass furnace for reuse.
• The transportation of glass, which is a relatively heavy product, throughout the supply chain results in high levels of transport-related CO2 emissions.
• Glass manufacturing is a high-temperature, energy-intensive activity, resulting in the emission of combustion by-products and the high-temperature oxidation of atmospheric nitrogen.
• It takes 15.2 million BTUs (British Thermal Units) of energy to produce one ton of glass. The manufacturing of one ton of glass can generate as much as 385 pounds of mining waste and 28 pounds of air pollutants.
• The amount of energy needed to produce one windshield is equal to 10,000 repairs.
The more that we all participate in reducing the use of raw materials and the energy needed to produce glass, the better off our environment will be, making glass repair the best option. It is not only a cost-effective option for your customers, but also the environmentally-sound option. Also, by decreasing the amount of glass that goes into landfills and reducing the need for new glass manufacturing and transportation, it contributes to a positive environmental impact.
Windshield repair has been around for more than three decades and continues to grow and develop into a viable and profitable service. If you do your research, choose the right equipment and participate in comprehensive training, windshield repair can become a lasting addition to your revenue stream and your profits.
Lori Patch is marketing director for GlasWeld, a world-wide provider of windshield repair, headlight restoration and glass scratch removal products since 1982. She wrote the article entitled, Windshield repair vs. replacement. For more information and sources on the environmental benefits of glass repair, visit www.glasweld.com/environment.

The Movement Disorders Program at Children's National offers evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment to more than 400 children each year with conditions that affect the speed, quality, and ease of their movement.
Involuntary movements that occur while a child is stationary, moving, or attempting to move, characterize such disorders. Movement disorders may be associated with genetic disorders, infectious diseases, trauma, endocrinologic or neoplastic conditions, or may be related to vascular causes.
Because treating movement disorders is complex, patients benefit from our multidisciplinary approach to care from a comprehensive team of specialists in:
In addition, Children's Movement Disorders Program cares for children with certain dystonic movement disorders with surgically-implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) devices. Deep brain stimulation is a surgical treatment option that has shown promise in treatment centers for adults with movement disorders, such as Parkinson's disease. The treatment provides relief for intractable symptoms that do not improve with use of medications.
Functioning like a "pacemaker" for the brain, DBS uses electrodes implanted in the brain to send electrical impulses to areas that are linked to movement disorders. While the treatment can relieve symptoms of dystonia, such as tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement, and stiffness, it does not cure patients of this condition.
We are committed to continuously improving therapies and discovering effective treatments for movement disorders and associated conditions. Our team is engaged in cutting-edge research and clinical trials, which are advancing care for patients.
Current activities include a clinical trial to evaluate the use of prescription alternatives for patients with Tourette's syndrome and dystonia who have not had success with other medications.
For more information about our studies and how to enroll your child in a clinical trial, speak with your child's primary care physician, a nurse, or program staff.

I think we will be surprised on how good Anderson is.
Hopefully a healthy Robin Lopez can get back to his 2009-2010 form which would be a nice surprise.
Darius Miller could stand out at SF.
Davis and Rivers are getting alot of the ink,but it always seems a player emerges from the roster that become the surprise guy...the one that gives more and nobody was paying attention at first.
Who is the guy that you feel is blessed with alot of potential or the player that will give more than is asked?
Mason? Aminu?....name him.
1-What does not move is dead.What has speed,and mobilty has more possibilities,more life...quickness creates luck.
2- Your Defense is only as good as your HELP/ROTATING defenders.
3-Games are won while the ball is in the air.
4- You design your roster to win a 7 game series not a one game confrontation.
I think we will be surprised on how good Anderson is.
Hopefully a healthy Robin Lopez can get back to his 2009-2010 form which would be a nice surprise.
Darius Miller could stand out at SF.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I am hoping Lopez or Miller. Miller i think has a lot of potential but could go either way. Lopez i wasn't too impressed with during his stay in phoenix. Thought he looked Spastic and lost at times out there. Hopefully he'll thrive in a more defensive scheme.
Also hoping Solomon Alabi makes an impression just because he is HUGE!
I honestly think fans are going to be surprised at the playing time/production of Warrick.
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
Under Monty I think it will be Lopez. Right now other teams are scoffing at us starting him, but I really think he'll improve to at least his 09-10 performance.
For Hornets fans that are less knowledgeable I think it will be Anderson. It will be like revisiting the Peja days in the Hive.
I honestly think we go about 6-8 deep with players who could be "this guy"....I'm going out on a limb and suggesting either Mason and/or Warrick...
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
I think we're gonna be disappointed at how many minutes Warrick will get, especially at SF.
I think Mason will get more PT and play better than people expect.

My surprise players are Aminu and Lopez. I think Aminu's summer experience will be a huge pay off. Lopez has been in the shadow of his brother's success and finally get the minutes to prove himself. I always believe Robin was just as talented as Brook. I love the makeup off this team. Glad I never jumped ship since the Charlotte Hornets days.
I got Darius Miller. I think he earns minutes with his active play, knocking down 3 pointers and defending multiple positions. I could see him stealing the starting job.
Let's go with Vasquez. I think Greivis can become a solid starting point guard, which I feel like most people think is above his ceiling. His energy and love for the game is apparent, and I think that can hopefully translate into a big improvement this year.
I'm hoping the answer is "no one"
Guys tend to overachieve due to opportunities they get that they otherwise would not (because of injury)
Think about it. Collison surprised because CP3 got hurt. Jason Smith's numbers were up last year because our entire front court got injured. Bellineli produced because we had no EG. And on and on and on.
Davis, Gordon, Anderson, Vasquez, Lopez, and Smith should perform at or above that of an average NBA player. If anybody else on this team exceeds that threshhold, it will be because they got way more minutes than we are currently anticipating, and that only happens because one of the aforementioned six gets injured
If he has improved his perimeter shooting then I think Vasquez could be a great fit at PG. Davis will cover him on defense and Gordon and Anderson will open him up on offense.I think he can surprise us by being a solid bordering on good starting point guard.
I think Henry will be a solid 2 off the bench. He is only 21 so he is still very young. I could potentially see him getting some minutes at the sf if Aminu doesn't figure things out. I really like X's work-ethic
Vasquez and Smith I believe will continue to take steps to become good players.

Comments about Saris Wheel Arch Rear Bike Stand:
Unfortunately bought two without doing my homework before purchase. Pros: durable, compact. Cons: Took a few minutes to figure out how it sets up (actually a neat idea) and like other reviewers, found that the bike rests on the spokes. I don't know if the spoke would actually bend but the design is less than ideal and could use a bit of tweaking. Never used long enough for a bike to fall over but could see how. Also return wasn't a viable option so these have migrated to my sister's for her kids bikes and I'm looking at other options
Comments about Saris Wheel Arch Rear Bike Stand:
I wondered as I was opening the box why it looked taped up, but I put the thought aside and threw away all packaging. This stand is so cheaply constructed that it only works on my childs bike with a 13" frame - nothing bigger. It is a total piece of garbage and I am disappointed with Jenson for even selling it. I am not going to even bother to sell it on [@] - it's going into the trash.
Comments about Saris Wheel Arch Rear Bike Stand:
I don't think that it is a very good product for larger bikes. It will probably work great for 26" bikes or my son's 20" bike.

HIGH POINT, N.C. - Conference Carolinas announces the Spring Scholar Athletes of the Year as recently voted on by the student-athlete affairs committee. This prestigious award is presented annually to a student-athlete in each sport for recognition of their outstanding academic and athletic achievements. Pfeiffer University's Sarah Hebberd (Women's Lacrosse) and Justin Rose (Men's Lacrosse) were selected as those sports' representatives.
Each member school submits candidates that are the best of the best for the conference from their sport while meeting certain qualifications for nomination. The qualifications include being a junior or senior student-athlete with a cumulative grade point average of 3.25 or higher on a 4.0 scale in all work completed at their member institution that have played in a conference sponsored sport. The GPA is calculated based on the student-athletes cumulative average through the previous semester and each student-athlete must have attended their member institution for at least one academic year. Additionally, in order to qualify for the award the student-athlete must be a current member of the All-Conference Carolinas First, Second, or Third Team that were recently selected by head coaches from conference member institutions that nominate and then vote upon award winners.
Steven Thiele completed a successful junior season on the mound for Belmont Abbey. During the 2011 season the Miami, FL native had a 6-3 record including 11 starts, 4.36 ERA, 51 strikeouts and a .258 batting average against opponents. The First Team All Conference selection was highlighted twice as Pitcher of the Week during the year. The Conference Carolinas All Academic selection earned a 4.0 GPA during the fall 2010 semester and has a cumulative 3.84 GPA. He is also a proud member of the Chi Alpha Sigma – NC Chapter for Academic Excellence.
Sydney Greenwalt will be remembered as an integral part of Coker College's softball program. The senior concluded her eligibility as a First Team All Conference player, garnering All Tournament team and Pitcher of the Week accolades while leading her team to a winning season. During the 2011 campaign she played 26 games, pitched 140.2 innings, with 74 strikeouts and a 1.86 ERA. The Edwardsville, IL, native will be an honor graduate with a 3.77 GPA and will continue her success in graduate school later this year. Greenwalt's academic credentials are as impressive as her achievements in the playing field. She is an Academic All-American and Academic All-Conference member. She has also received multiple awards including the 2011 Behavioral and Social Science Outstanding Student Award and the 2011 Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award. Her leadership attributes and commitment to excellence allowed her to hold a variety of leadership roles for her institution.
Women's Tennis
Christine Vanard finished her NCAA eligibility at Lees-McRae College after a successful college career. The Winston-Salem, N.C, native was an integral part of the tennis team garnering recognition both inside and outside the tennis court lines. The senior has a 3.86 GPA, is member of the Chi Alpha Sigma National College Athlete Honor Society, and was part of Lees-McRae College's fall 2010 Dean List. Her academic success and athletic ability help her earn multiple conference acknowledgments including Conference Carolinas Presidential Honor Roll member, All-Academic Team recognition and four-time All-Conference representative.
Men's Tennis
Travis Vanhoy will be remembered as an essential part of the Lees-McRaes tennis program. The Olin, N.C, native has a 3.65 GPA, is member of the Chi Alpha Sigma National College Athlete Honor Society and was part of the Lees-McRae College fall 2010 Dean List. The two-time Conference Carolinas All-Conference selection garnered All-Academic recognition as well as being a Conference Carolinas Presidential Honor Roll member.
Women's Golf

Jetty is a project at the Eclipse Foundation.
|Jetty Powered:
private support for your internal/customer projects ... custom extensions and distributions ... versioned snapshots for indefinite support ... scalability guidance for your apps and Ajax/Comet projects ... development services from 1 day to full product delivery
Servlet 2.5 Annotations, Resource Injections and Callbacks
The 2.5 Servlet Specification adds the ability to inject JNDI resources into fields and methods of servlets, filters and listeners, and also to perform certain callbacks at various points in the lifecycle of a web application.
JNDI resource injection and the lifecycle callbacks can be specified entirely within the web.xml file, or alternatively marked up as annotations in your source code. You can even use a combination of annotations and web.xml declarations.
One important thing to be aware of is that the 2.5 Servlet Specification has introduced a new attribute into the <web-app> element, the metadata-complete attribute. If true, then the web container will NOT search the webapp for source code annotations, and your web.xml file must contain all resources required. If false or not specified, then jetty is required to examine all servlets, filters and listeners in the webapp for annotations. Therefore, you can save startup time by using this attribute correctly - if you don't want to use annotations then ensure you mark metadata-complete="true", otherwise you will pay the penalty of the code examination.
Jetty supports the following injections and callback types:
- @Resource equivalent to <resource-ref>, <resource-env-ref>, <env-entry> and <message-destination-ref> in web.xml
- @Resources declares java:comp/env name linkages for reference by JNDI lookups
- @PostConstruct equivalent to <post-construct> in web.xml
- @PreDestroy equivalent to <pre-destroy> in web.xml
- @RunAs equivalent to <run-as> in web.xml
Lets look first at how you can use web.xml to declare injections and callbacks without needing to use JDK1.5 annotations.
Resource Injections and Callbacks specified in web.xml
The Servlet 2.5 web.xml schema has been augmented to support the declaration of resource injections and lifecycle callbacks. We'll look at a couple of small examples of how to declare them in web.xml, but for more in-depth information, you should consult the Common Annotations for the Java Platform Specification (JSR250), the Servlet 2.5 Specification (JSR154) and the JavaEE Specification v5 (JSR244).
Here is a small example of the injection of a DataSource resource:
This example shows that the resource named
java:comp/env/jdbc/mydatasource will be injected by Jetty into the the field named
myDatasource or the method named
setMyDatasource(javax.sql.DataSource) in the instance of the class
com.acme.MyServlet before it goes into service.
Similarly, values for <env-entry>s can be injected:
This example shows the value
99.99 being injected into the field named
maxAmount (or the method named
setMaxAmount(Double)) in the instance of the class
com.acme.MyServlet before it goes into service.
The Servlet 2.5 Specification (JSR154) also introduces the concept of lifecycle callbacks. These are of two types: a post-construction callback, and a pre-destruction callback. The former will be invoked after all resource injections have been performed on an instance of a managed class (eg servlet, filter or listener) but before it goes into service. The latter is invoked just before the container removes the instance from service. Let's look at how you might declare these callbacks in a web.xml file:
The above example would invoke the method
myPostConstructCallback() on the instance of the class
com.acme.MyServlet before the servlet is put into service, and would invoke the method
myPreDestroyCallback() on the instance before it goes out of service.
How to Configure in Jetty
To use injections and callbacks declared in web.xml, you simply follow the instructions for setting up JNDI. Once your webapp is configured for JNDI access (ie you have followed the instructions in the first section of the JNDI page), and you have defined the resources you want to access in a jetty configuration file (such as a jetty.xml or a WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml file as described on the JNDI page), you can reference them in your web.xml file.
Example Web Application
examples/test-jndi-webapp webapp in the Jetty distribution shows you how to go about this.
Resource Injections and Callbacks with Annotations
The Servlet 2.5 Specification (JSR154) allows the use of annotations instead of/in addition to declarations in the web.xml file.
Let's see what the equivalent annotations would be for the examples we gave for the web.xml markup.
Here's the equivalent of the injection of the DataSource:
In this case, we've chosen to put the annotation on a setter method, but equally we could have chosen to put it onto a field instead. As you can see, at runtime, you can simply use the data member
myDS to obtain a Connection because Jetty will have injected the field with the DataSource you configured named
jdbc/mydatasource in a
jetty.xml or
WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml file.
Here's the equivalent for the EnvEntry:
Finally, here are the lifecycle callback equivalents:
Refer to the Common Annotations for the Java Platform Specification (JSR250) and the JavaEE Specification v5 (JSR244) for more extensive examples, and for precise rules on what source constructs can be marked with annotations.
How to Configure in Jetty
Firstly, read the information on setting up JNDI. Then apply the following configuration to instruct Jetty to search for annotations in the source code of your web application:
Once you've enabled annotation support for your webapp, and followed the instructions in JNDI to set up references to resources you want to access at runtime (eg
org.mortbay.jetty.plus.naming.EnvEntry for environment values,
org.mortbay.jetty.plus.naming.Resource for DataSources, Queues, Topics etc) you can go ahead a mark up your code.
Example Web Application
examples/test-annotations web application can be built and deployed to demonstrate how to use annotation markup in your code.

Yes, if you stop by here occasionally then there is every likelihood that you have seen
this a very similar quilt before. This one is a re-make and custom order for a Liberated Star Quilt using Carrie Bloomston's Collage collection which I have previously made and posted here: Liberated Star Quilt and Collage by Carrie Bloomston.
Repeating a the same quilt is always harder and feels less like being creative. I therefore decided not to look back at images of the original quilt but rather work with the liberated and improvised process, allowing the eye to choose color and fabric placement. My new quilt (on the left) turned out remarkably similar, perhaps a little brighter and blue/greener.
I have again quilted the quilt with an overall 1 inch grid; all lines are stitched from edge to edge. I prefer to stitch all of the horizontal lines first (because they are shorter and it feels like I have more control over the quilt and quilting this way) and then stitch all of the vertical - longer - lines. I have used the seam lines as a guide for my stitching lines as well as a quilting guide attached to the walking foot when the distance from the seam line could no longer be "eyeballed" with the required accuracy.
For the back of this quilt I have used Geekly Chic - Glasses by Riley Blake. I love this quirky fabric and have stashed yardage for more quilt backs. (From these last two images you can also see that I like to match the bobbin thread with my backing fabric when quilting).
This quilt is already crossing the Pacific Ocean - on the way to a new owner, and if you ever stop by at Superbuzzy in Ventura CA (lucky you!) then you may get to see this one for yourself. Enjoy!

Heartbreak for Murphy boys soccer

It was a microcosm of the 2A state first-round game with Franklin Pierce and perhaps the Wildcats season, which ended after a 1-0 shootout (4-2) loss to the South Puget Sound League team at Everett Memorial Stadium.
To get to that moment, it was a good play by a great player, but the end result wasn't what the Wildcats hoped for after unleashing shot after shot at the Cardinals goal all night.
"We knew they were man-to-man a better team than us," Franklin Pierce coach Steve Anderson said. "I went and watched them play Saturday (in the district championship win over Bellingham). They were awesome."
In many ways Crisler was a big reason for Murphy's success this season, including the team's third-straight district title and the outcome Tuesday wasn't the nearly 6-foot-5 midfielder's fault. But his struggles were emblematic of the team's night.
Crisler led the area with over 20 goals with most of them coming on restarts or what some call set pieces -- basically chances for the senior to use his size advantage near the goalie box.
The Cardinal's Ryan Sandoval didn't quite match Crisler's size, but his play was enough to keep Murphy from connecting. The Wildcats had a 6-0 corner-kick edge on top of plenty of throw-ins deep at the Cardinal end. Usually that's enough chances to get Crisler a goal or two, but Sandoval disrupted Crisler just enough to keep the ball off the frame.
Sandoval's presence was a surprise for Murphy coach Mike Bartley, who always likes to scout his opponents in advance.
"The one thing we didn't know about them was they had (Sandoval) that could counter Jalen in the air," Bartley said. "I had scouting reports from two different people and they didn't identify him.
"That nullified our restart plays."
Anderson also is a coach for the Franklin Pierce golf team. Both he and Sandoval were at Gold Mountain Golf Course in Bremerton Tuesday morning. Sandoval shot well enough for 18 holes to qualify for the 2A state tournament before he and Anderson caught the ferry over to arrive in Everett an hour before game time.
Anderson was worried about Crisler before the game.
"I knew that was going to be a problem," Anderson said. "He's obviously tough against everyone all season ?. I thought my kid hung with him."
The other difference maker was Cardinals goalie Steven Wolfe. The keeper devoured shot after shot by the Wildcats from every angle. Wolfe saved the first and third attempt by the Wildcats during the shootout.
"He played a great game," Anderson said. He made good decisions."
Jeff Scavotto pitched a shutout in the goal for Murphy for 90 minutes. He did well to come up with huge saves after long periods of inactivity with Murphy attacking during the run of play, but couldn't find a shootout save, let alone the two he had Saturday, in four Cardinals attempts.
The best Murphy chance of the night came in the 58th minute when Tyler Ptacek found himself alone in front of the goal on a Christian Thode corner kick with a header. The hard ricochet was no match for Wolfe, but the crossbar did just fine bouncing it helplessly away.
But it wasn't the only time they got close.
"I just didn't happen for us tonight," Bartley said. "That's basically it: a very good Franklin Pierce team. They came in, they had their game plan and executed it. We executed ours and it just came out that we didn't find the net."
The normally loquacious Bartley was rendered speechless for a few minutes after the heartbreak that was the end of the season -- for the second straight year in a shootout in the state tournament. The Wildcats' only losses over the past two seasons have been four shootouts.
"We knew exactly what we were facing a defensive team that was going to counter," Bartley said. "We knew we had to score a goal."
Some argue penalty kicks is a poor way to decide the end of such a close game, but Bartley who has coach boys and girls teams for a long time in the area isn't about to give up the sport to coach baseball.
"I love this sport and so do these guys," he said. "It's just unlucky tonight."

eKartingNews.ca: 2006-2014
For many reasons, the time has come for eKartingNews.ca to close its doors and fold itself back into the main EKN website, which remains the hub of kart racing on the Internet. We've enjoyed our many years of providing the Canadian karting community with quality coverage and original editorial, even more so over the past few years in which we've been focusing on the grassroots club level of the sport. Club karting is the foundation and backbone of the sport in Canada and it's on a positive upswing as we look to complete the 2014 season.
We'd like to thank everyone for eight years of readership and support!
Moving forward, we ask that kart clubs and regional series continue to send their previews and race reports to us – via email@example.com - so that we can post them to eKartingNews.com and continue to provide coverage and exposure for Canadian karting.
I hope to see you all out at the track in the near future.

Heyneke Meyer will only name his Springbok captain in the week leading up to the first Test against England.
It's been said that Victor Matfield will come out of retirement to lead the Boks for one final season, while this website understands that Fourie du Preez could also return to the Test fold and take up the captaincy. Meyer said on Thursday that he will only make his final decision public on 4 June, a few days before South Africa play England in Durban.
'I will announce that on the Monday before the first test against England,' Meyer said at a Bok planning camp in Pretoria. 'There has been a lot of speculation about who will be the captain, but I've made it clear the decision will not be made now.
'A lot can happen between now and when we play. Players like Schalk [Burger] and Jean [de Villiers] got injured, so it won't be wise to make an appointment now. There has also been speculation about Victor [Matfield] being made captain and there is also Fourie [du Preez], but I want to have a good look at who is available before I make a decision.'
Burger is expected to return to the playing field when the Stormers host the Cheetahs in round 12 of the Super Rugby competition. It is not known when De Villiers will be back with the official line from the Stormers medical staff being that he will be assessed on a weekly basis. Some sources believe that the hand ligament injury could preclude him from the England series, but this is yet to be confirmed.
Matfield hasn't played any rugby since he represented the Barbarians in December last year. Du Preez has been playing his rugby with Suntory Sungoliath in Japan, who recently won the Japanese league and the Japanese Cup. It is not know at this point if Du Preez will return to Test rugby.

Expert Answers to Readers' Questions
- What is the difference between the glycemic index and glycemic load?
- Where can I get information about the glycemic index of foods?
- What is the glycemic index of sugar substitutes like NutraSweet?
- Are high-carbohydrate diets good for losing weight and weight control?
- Will going on a low-carbohydrate diet help me lose weight?
- Are sugar alcohol sweeteners like erythritol and xylitol good alternatives to sugar?
What is the difference between the glycemic index and glycemic load?
Glycemic index and glycemic load are two similar but different terms. Glycemic index indicates how rapidly a certain food increases blood sugar after eating, compared to the same amount of carbohydrate as white bread (50 grams of carbohydrate). Glycemic load, on the other hand, takes into account the glycemic index of a food multiplied by the carbohydrate content of the food. For most foods, the rule follows that a food with a high glycemic index will also have a high glycemic load. However, there are exceptions to the rule; carrots and watermelon have high glycemic index but a low glycemic load, due to the small amounts of carbohydrate found in these foods.
Where can I get information about the glycemic index of foods?
More information about the glycemic index of foods can be found in the Carbohydrate section of this Web site, in Dr. Walter Willett's book Eat, Drink and Be Healthy, and on the University of Sydney's Glycemic Index Web site.
What is the glycemic index of sugar substitutes like NutraSweet?
Consuming foods made with NutraSweet-especially beverages-are a better option than consuming sugary drinks. Aspartame does not have a high glycemic index, since it is not a carbohydrate. However, foods and beverages with sugar substitutes should be limited since the lifelong effects of these products are unknown.
Are high-carbohydrate diets good for losing weight and weight control?
A high-carbohydrate diet is likely not advantageous to weight loss, and more importantly to long-term weight maintenance. This is because high-carbohydrate diets also tend to be low in fat. In the past two decades, there has been a tremendous focus on low-fat diets. In turn, food manufacturers have produced low-fat foods that are also high in refined carbohydrates and therefore tend to have a high glycemic index promoting more fat synthesis and storage. In addition, it is important to realize that fat is a vital component of a meal. Fat adds flavor to meals and can make them more satisfying. Furthermore, plant oils also contain "healthy" fats rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
Will going on a low-carbohydrate diet help me lose weight?
Some people who go on a low-carbohydrate diet have managed to keep weight off in the short term, but the best studies show that on average the weight loss is small after one year. There has been much debate about the impact of low-carbohydrate diets on overall health. A recent 20-year study on 82,080 women found that that a low-carbohydrate eating pattern did not increase risk of heart disease; if the protein and fats mainly came from vegetable sources, a low carbohydrate eating pattern actually reduced heart disease. A controlled trial underway at the Harvard School of Public Health may give us a more definitive answer on the possible benefits of low-carbohydrate diets. The study is testing four diets with different amounts of carbohydrate, protein, and fat; it will follow 800 overweight volunteers for two years to see which type of diet is best for weight loss, weight maintenance, and overall good health.
Are sugar alcohol sweeteners like erythritol and xylitol good alternatives to sugar?
Erythritol, xylitol, and other sugar alcohols have been used for decades to sweeten chewing gum, candy, fruit spreads, toothpaste, cough syrup, and other products. Newer, cheaper ways to make sugar alcohols from corn, wood, and other plant materials, along with their sugar-like taste, are fueling their use in a growing array of foods. Erythritol has even begun cropping up in beverages, on its own or combined with stevia in the "natural" calorie-free sweeteners Truvia™ and PureVia™. Other sugar alcohols you may see listed on food labels are mannitol, sorbitol, and hydrogenated starch hydrolysates. Sugar alcohols taste like sugar, with 50 to 70 percent of the sweetness of sucrose (table sugar). The body doesn't break down or absorb sugar alcohols as easily as sucrose—you get four calories from a teaspoon of table sugar compared with 0.2 calories from erythritol and 2.4 calories from xylitol. There is a price to pay for the poor absorption of sugar alcohols: At high levels of intake, sugar alcohols can have a laxative effect. Erythritol's manufacturers, however, say that erythritol is somewhat better absorbed than other sugar alcohols, and is therefore less likely to cause digestive discomfort.
