Obesity Treatment: Establishing Goals, Improving Outcomes, and Reviewing the Research Agenda / Edition 1by David B. Allison
Pub. Date: 10/28/1995
Publisher: Springer US
Treatment outcome has certainly improved since Stunkard and McLaren-Hume (1959) reviewed the literature and found that less than 25% of obese patients lost 20 pounds or more and less than 5% lost 40 pounds or more. However, one of the few points on which almost all obesity researchers agree is that to date, our results are quite modest and we are generally unsuccessful in promoting effective weight maintenance among obese persons. As the title of a more recent article, "Improving long-term weight loss: Pushing the limits of treatment," (Brownell & Jeffrey, 1987, [emphasis added]) suggests, many believe that we have pushed our current treatment paradigms to the limit. It was with this background in mind that we organized the meeting from which these proceedings issue. The purpose of the three day international meeting was to evaluate the current knowledge base and conceptual paradigms of obesity treatment and to suggest directions for future research and clinical practice. Rather than simply for research reporting, the meeting was primarily for research generation. All speakers were established scientists in the field who were asked to summarize our state of knowledge in a given area rather than present the results of their latest research. Great efforts were taken to ensure that panel discussions occupied a central portion of the conference, and that the questions "What else do we need to know?" and "How do we find it out?" were consistently addressed.

Time with kids beats work — but it's more exhausting, parents say
Parents count earning a living as a distant second to spending time with and caring for their children, according to a national time-use report released this week by the Pew Research Center.
The survey of parents who have children under age 18 found that 62 percent consider their child-care experiences "very meaningful," while only 36 percent say the same of their paid work-related activities, according to the report. The findings are based on the well-being module of the 2010 American Time Use Survey, conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The new report is a natural follow-up to one published by Pew in March that detailed how the roles of mothers and fathers are converging. It showed that moms are doing more outside-the-home paid work than they did in the past, while dads are doing more at home than they used to do. Unlike that report, though, the new Pew report attempts to figure out how they feel about the various activities tracked: housework, leisure, child care and work.
Happy but tired
Moms and dads give similar answers when it comes to finding "meaning" in spending time with their children or at work. But when it comes to both housework and leisure time, moms say it's more meaningful than dads do.
Time with kids not only counted as meaningful, but also scored high on the happiness meter.
"Parents on average report that they are 'very happy' in 35 percent of their child-care activities, compared with 19 percent of their paid work-related activities," the analysis says. "In fact, the happiness level that parents experience during their time caring for children is only slightly lower than it is during their leisure time (41 percent rated that as very happy)."
Still, while more parents say caring for children is more rewarding, it's also more exhausting than an outside job: 12 percent characterize it that way, compared with 5 percent who say the same of the job. And moms, especially, feel that way.
"Moms are more exhausted than dads in all the major activities that we have studied," said the report's author, Wendy Wang, research associate at Pew. "The reason probably has to do with the amount of work mothers devote to child care and housework.
"Moms are doing more heavy-duty care activities — feeding, dressing, physical care. They are doing more educational care, helping with homework, and managerial — organizing and planning events with kids, attending school events, picking them up and dropping them off. It is only in recreational activities where we see the smallest gap," she said.
Parents sometimes refer to taking care of their kids as stressful, said Wang, but when it's measured in comparison to paid work, housework and even leisure activities, "it turned out that child care may not be as stressful as people think." Parents only rate 3 percent of child care activities as "very stressful," which is lower than the paid-work activities. In more than half of the activities related to child care, both moms and dads said they're "not stressed at all," while at work, only one in five activities are not in the least stressful.
The age of the children was not noted for this analysis.
Here and abroad
Wang noted that moms are still doing "almost twice as much housework as dad on average."
A similar finding has been made repeatedly not only in other studies, but in other countries, too.
A July report by the Economic and Social Research Council on its most recent European Social Survey noted that "one of the greatest social changes across Europe in recent decades has been the increase of women in the labor market. However, changes in women's work patterns have not always been matched by changes in the division of household tasks between the sexes."

Thanks guys! I think Win must allow you to just start over-writing the space on which trash-designated items reside, whereas Mac insists you confirm your trash really is trash before over-writing.
Maybe their analogy is the difference between the wastebasket in your home (still accessible) vs the dumpster (accessible only by urban divers) and the landfill (inaccessible).
Therefore, it could be said that Windows is okay with you having a stack of pizza boxes in the corner...

Operator Customer Loyalty Programs in CEE: Bringing Customers Closer
This IDC Insight reviews customer loyalty programs offered by CEE operators in the context of broader trends impacting the region's telecommunications markets. The study begins with specific market trends framing telecom operators' strategic decisions and how customer loyalty programs fit within their strategies. It then considers the factors that CEE operators must take into account as they devise and implement their loyalty programs. The study also reviews customer loyalty program structures used by operators in the CEE region, with a brief look at select operators' customer loyalty programs. The Insight concludes by offering recommendations to CEE telecom operators on how to structure their loyalty programs to support the near-term goal of limiting customer churn and maintaining ARPU levels but with a view to the longer-term support of their business objectives and strategies.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

A combined methodology is presented for specifying abstract synchronous data types and proving the correctness of systolic network implementations. It is shown that an extension of the Parnas trace method of specifying software modules containing distinct access programs yields a natural method of specifying abstract synchronous data types that possess distinct access operators and are intended for implementation in VLSI. Associated systematic proof techniques are presented, and the correctness of several novel systolic network implementations of familiar data types is established. The methodology appears to be naturally suited to systolic network implementations with their associated rippling of control flow and data flow. The important distinction between systolic control-flow networks and systolic data-flow networks is presented

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - A drama pilot executive produced by George Clooney has TNT singing the "Delta Blues."
The cable network has green-lighted "Delta," from Clooney and Grant Heslov's Smokehouse Pictures and Warner Horizon. Written by Liz Garcia ("Cold Case") and Josh Harto, it centers on an outstanding but unusual Memphis cop who moonlights as an Elvis impersonator and lives with his mother.
"Delta" was put in development at TNT about a year and a half ago and was included in the cable network's development slate during its May 2008 "upfront" presentation to advertisers. Since then Clooney and Heslov moved their production company from Warner Bros. to Sony.
"Delta" marks the first pilot for Smokehouse. With previous producing partner Steven Soderbergh, Clooney fielded two improvisational series, "K Street" and "Unscripted." Both shows had 10-episode runs on HBO.
TNT has been high on cop dramas, programing such series as "The Closer," "Saving Grace" and, most recently, "Dark Blue." The network, which runs repeats of crime procedurals "Law & Order," "CSI: NY," "Cold Case," "Numbers," "Without a Trace" and "Bones," also has been in talks to acquire the recently canceled NBC police drama "Southland."

Proposed regulations on deductions for entertainment use of business aircraft, issued by the IRS in June, are meant to help aircraft owners comply with changes to the Internal Revenue Code that were introduced in the 2004 Jobs Act. Those changes disallow tax deductions if certain top executives, called "specified individuals," use the aircraft for "entertainment."

You have to feel sorry for the airlines. The industry is well past its Golden Years, whenever they were. Some say they were in the 1930s, others in the '50s or '60s. Certainly, these years, which always look better with hindsight, were before the days of deregulation, which began in 1978.

We had a wonderful few days in Dubrovnik and could not imagine a better place to stay. We were delighted to find Miho's apartment perched in the top storey, giving amazing views over Dubrovnik and the Adriatic Sea. Miho was attentive to all detail. He picked us up from the airport, described local history and at the end of the stay helped us transfer to the bus terminal. Overall a memorable experience.
Apartment Lobrovic is a fabulous place to stay in old town Dubrovnik. The porter service to get our luggage to the apartment was a real luxury, especially when we saw so many other weary travellers struggling with their bags. It gave us an an early opportunity to take in the sights and sounds of the city and really made a huge difference.
The apartment is exactly as described and the views are absolutely stunning. The air-conditioning was much appreciated as it was very hot during our stay.
We all loved watching people walk along the wall and listening to the daytime sounds of the city. We made very good use of the vine-covered balcony at breakfast and the children were thrilled to try the grapes. The wi-fi and satellite TV was much appreciated by our teenage son when he returned to the apartment in the evening.
Miho was an amazing host - respectful and informative. He helped us to really get to the heart of Croatian culture and to make the most of all that the city had to offer with his recommendations of places to see and restaurants to visit.
We have already recommended this apartment to several of our friends and family and would love to go back ourselves some day. Thank you Miho.
Fantastic apartment with everything we could possibly need and more, including stunning views in all directions and biscuits, beer and water waiting for us in the fridge!
Miho not only carried our bags to the apartment and back but gave us a short tour of the city without which I strongly doubt that we would ever have guessed the location of the local baker, not to mention the restaurant and trip recommendations that were all spot-on.
The apartment was clean, air-conditioned, and in a lovely quiet area near the wall with a local bar through a hole in the wall via which you could also access the sea for a swim.
As good a way to spend a week as I can think of!
Thanks Miho
The apartment was clean and in a great location. Miho went above and beyond to provide great service and anything we needed during our stay. I would absolutely recommend this to a friend or relative. My friends and I were very satisfied with our stay. I hope to come back to Croatia in the future, and when I do, I plan to stay in this same terrific apartment.
We loved our stay in Dubrovnik and this apartment. The pictures don't do it justice and can't possibly capture the impressive views from every window. It's the high point in the city and gives you a vantage you can only get from the wall.
The beds were comfortable and the apartment was well equipped with everything we needed for a 3 day stay (including some cooking). You get a great breeze from the windows and the shutters are basically black out shades!
One of my favorite moments was watching the sunrise from the kitchen window seat while drinking coffee. An incredible location and stay... Plus we got our daily exercise walking up from the center of old town each day! After all the fantastic pizza, that was a good thing!
Miho was a great host and having someone to pick us up at the airport (for a reasonable fee) along with taking our bags up to the apartment made check-in and check-out a breeze!
Selma and Miho were wonderful to deal with. The flat is exactly as described and the location is better than described! Every morning the sun graced our rooms and we started each day in warmth and beauty! The neighborhood directly in the area is real and welcoming. We could hear neighborhood children playing in the courtyard, laughed with residences basking in the sunshine and even shared a hug or two in just a few short days. If you want to experience a holiday in a special city with real people this is the flat for you. No complaints, authentic and homey.
We made this cozy, clean apartment our home in Dubrovnik from Oct 8th to Oct 15th.The pictures are quite accurate but the cannot show the true charms which are the views...Looking out the bedroom window at all hours to see the changing panorama of cruise ships, sky, islands and water was lovely. You are positioned on one of the highest points in the city, on level with the city walls but it is quiet and private. Yes, you need to be comfortable stairs within the city and to reach the apartment but we are in our late sixties and did just fine. Miho was so kind and very responsive, leaving us his phone and answering our endless questions about restaurants, shopping and even arranging a car and driver for a day trip to Montenegro. On arrival his driver picked us up at the airport and when we arrived at the Pile gate Miho was right there to greet us ( recommend the porter service) and escorted us to the apartment. We felt like natives by the week's end and loved that we could take our time exploring Dubrovnik and Cavtat( a must) . Wandering the streets after full day of fun, food and sights, we truly felt like we were coming home. We loved our stay . With grateful hearts, Kris and Larry
Apartment Lobrovic, offering panorama sea views, is centrally located in Dubrovnik, in the heart of the historical city walls.
This rental apartment has one of the most unique locations, it is perched on top of the South side of the Old Town at same level (almost above) city walls giving the guest some of the most beautiful views beyond ones imagination.
Apartment Lobrovic is steps away from the charming Buza Beach & Bar – "the hole in the wall" that overlooks the Adriatic. Few meters further is the second Buza Beach. Both offer swimming facilities. Other beaches located outside city walls (within 10-15 min stroll).
It is located away from the crowds in quiet residential part of the old town, yet only 5 minutes stroll down to the main street 'Stradun', cafes, restaurants, and attractions.
The old town is car free zone, you can enter from Pile gate (West), Ploce gate (East) or Buza car park on north side.

Transcend Announces StoreJet 35T3 USB 3.0 External HDD
Transcend Announces StoreJet 35T3 USB 3.0 External HDD
Transcend Information, Inc., a worldwide leader in storage and multimedia products, today introduced the StoreJet 35T3, its latest 3.5" external hard drive featuring the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface. The black, sleek-looking StoreJet 35T3 delivers real-world transfer rates of up to 130 MB/s, offering dramatically enhanced external storage performance for today's speed-conscious users.
As technology marches forward, large files generated by modern devices such as digital cameras and camcorders can quickly fill an internal hard drive and slow the computer down. Designed for users with high-capacity requirements, the StoreJet 35T3 not only offers an enormous 2TB of storage space for large files, but also supports the next-generation USB 3.0 standard that boosts data transfer rates up to 130MB/s in real world testing-fast enough to transfer an entire DVD movie in a mere 30 seconds. Instead of wasting time transferring gigabytes of files and data to an ordinary USB 2.0 drive, users now have a much faster and easier way to store their digital content.
One Touch Auto-Backup & Eco-Friendly Design
The StoreJet 35T3 makes external storage more efficient with its unique One Touch auto-backup button; an exclusive feature normally found only on smaller 2.5" portable hard drives. The One Touch auto-backup technology helps users instantly backup and synchronize data with their computer, ensuring important files are updated to the latest version and safely stored in a secondary location.
Also an eco-friendly drive, the StoreJet 35T3 fully meets the European Union's eco-design requirements for Energy Related Products (ErP). Moreover, the StoreJet 35T3 automatically goes into power-saving sleep mode after ten minutes of inactivity, allowing energy-savings of nearly 70%.
The StoreJet 35T3 is backed by Transcend's three-year limited warranty, and comes bundled with the StoreJet Elite software that offers advanced 256-bit AES file and folder encryption, intelligent backup scheduling, Internet tools and advanced security features. Now available in 2TB capacity, the StoreJet 35T3 is the perfect choice for high-capacity external storage in today's space-hungry digital world.

In "The Animal Kingdom: A Very Short Introduction" Peter Holland takes us on a journey of rediscovery of animals in all of their fascinating glory. This book can challenge and radically transform one's understanding of what is meant by the word "animal." It turns out that animals are much more diverse and heterogeneous than what most of us suspect. There are estimated millions of species of animals out there, and we'll probably never get a full catalog of them. Like with all other branches of the tree of life, most animals are extremely small or microscopic, live in regions far away from human habitats, and engage in lifestyles that make them extremely hard to detect and study. Even with the known species of animals, the process of categorization and classification can be extremely daunting. For the most of human history, including the past couple of centuries of rapid scientific progress, animals had been categorized in terms of their gross physiological features. This sort of classification worked more or less well for the larger species, but for some smaller ones it created a lot of puzzles. All of this has changed with the advent of DNA analysis which has put the task of animal classification on a much more rigorous footing.Read more ›

'Taste' dishes up a rare treat for ABC
Only new show this year to finish No. 1 for night in 18-49s
January 23, 2013
ABC's "The Taste" did something very few new shows have done this season: Finished as the No. 1 show of the night in its premiere.
Of course, it came against weak competition, with CBS in reruns and the other networks offering lackluster fare. Still, it's a good start for the new reality show, a sort of "The Voice" meets "Top Chef" cooking contest.
"Taste" averaged a 2.2 adults 18-49 rating from 8 to 10 p.m., according to Nielsen overnights. In a surprise that the network is sure to tout, "Taste" actually bested last fall's season premiere of "Dancing with the Stars," which drew a 2.1 in the same timeslot.
In a good sign for ABC, "Taste" grew from a 1.9 in its first half hour to a 2.4 in its fourth, winning its timeslot at 8 and 9.
"Taste's" lead-out, "Private Practice," grew 25 percent from last week to a 1.5 for its series finale.
Another finale, this the fourth-season ender for NBC's "Parenthood," drew a 1.7 at 10 p.m. Though that was down from last week's 1.9 (perhaps hurt by "Practice's" series finale), the drama did win its timeslot for the seventh straight telecast.
Fox's "New Girl" was the night's No. 2 show with a 2.1, growing 11 percent from last week's series low.
Fox's "Girl" and "The Mindy Project" beat their comedy competition on NBC, where "Go On" (1.3) and "The New Normal" (1.2) fell to season lows.
ABC led the night among 18-49s with a 1.9 average overnight rating and a 5 share. Univision was second at 1.7/4, NBC and Fox tied for third at 1.6/4, CBS fifth at 1.5/4, Telemundo sixth at 0.6/2 and CW seventh at 0.6/1.
As a reminder, all ratings are based on live-plus-same-day DVR playback, which includes shows replayed before 3 a.m. the night before. Seven-day DVR data won't be available for several weeks. Forty-six percent of Nielsen households have DVRs.
At 8 p.m. ABC led with a 2.0 for "Taste," while CBS, NBC and Univision all tied for second at 1.7, CBS for a repeat of "NCIS," NBC for "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" (1.6 and 1.8) and Univision for "Por Ella Soy Eva." Fox was fifth with a 1.5 for "Raising Hope" (1.7) and "Ben and Kate" (1.2), CW sixth with a 0.7 for "Hart of Dixie"(tying a season high) and Telemundo seventh with a 0.6 for "Rosa Diamante."
ABC was first again at 9 p.m. with a 2.3 for more "Taste," followed by Univision with a 2.0 for "Amores Verdaderos." Fox was third with a 1.8 for "Girl" (2.1) and "Mindy" (1.5), CBS fourth with a 1.7 for a rerun of "NCIS: Los Angeles," NBC fifth with a 1.3 for "Go" (1.3) and "Normal" (1.2), Telemundo sixth with a 0.6 for "La Patrona" and CW seventh with a 0.5 for "Emily Owens, M.D."
NBC took the lead at 10 p.m. with a 1.7 for "Parenthood," with ABC second with a 1.5 for "Practice." Univision was third with a 1.3 for "Amor Bravio," CBS fourth with a 1.1 for a repeat of "Vegas" and Telemundo fifth with a 0.6 for "Pablo Escobar: El Patron del Mal" (0.8) and "El Rostro de la Venganza" (0.5).
CBS finished first for the night among households with a 6.8 average overnight rating and a 10 share. ABC was second at 3.8/6, NBC third at 3.1/5, Fox fourth at 2.1/3, Univision fifth at 2.0/3, CW sixth at 1.0/2 and Telemundo seventh at 0.7/1.

Excellent 4.2 /5 from 110 reviews
There's an excellent, very popular restaurant, the 3 Brasseurs, a short walk away. On the downside, the shower room, though stylish, had a door impossible to open quietly.
Extremely difficult to find; hotel on new retail outlet site, so up to date sat-nav necessary. Site out of town, so walking distance food either steak house type, or an interesting micro-brewery with limited food choices. Two hours from Calais of value.
Very comfortable and satisfying
We stayed overnight on our way home from Spain with our two dogs. Lots of places to eat really nearby. The hotel staff were excellent and really helpful even though we arrived late in the evening.
I a meeting I have to have every month and I find this hotel to be ideal for location and comfort, would be nice if they had some where to eat at night
