Although the bets will not be for real money they will still allow the sites 25 million American members to have a wagering outlet that does not infringe the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) introduced by the US government in late 2006.
The first rather dubious bet on offer to Facebook members is: 'Will Paris Hilton be sexually abused in jail?". After the site's US contingent have placed their bets on Paris's fate the outcome will be published worldwide.
Other questions which the American public will bet via Facebook include:
'Will the US Assassinate Iranian leader Ahmadinejad by the end of the summer?'
'Are the Red Sox going to the World Series?'
'Should the legal drinking age in America be reduced to 18?'

Mystery Shopping sounds exotic, doesn't it?
Now just imagine how much exotic it sounded 15 years ago when we became the first company in the Post-Soviet space, which offered the Secret Shopper service to the business. Sometimes we had to explain that detective novel or tourism services had nothing to do with this, believe us.
Since then we became the biggest provider of the Secret Shopper service in Eastern Europe. 15 years of secret visits, concealed researches, thorough inspections and unbiased staff test-drives did not only raise our own service level but the service quality of our clients as well. We are sure that 1 million and 150 thousands visits of our shoppers have greatly contributed to making our environment more comfortable and the services more professional. So, if while reading this text, you found the term Mystery Shopping familiar, we can feel that it was partially own merit.
Now back to business. We will tell you in several words why you need the Secret Shoppers and how they can make your customers happier and your business more profitable.
Let's start with the definition – what is it at all?
Mystery Shopping is when specially trained people with practiced eye and clear criteria of service evaluation visit your point of sale, establishment or organization acting as usual customers. They spot everything, imperceptibly note, evaluate and then honestly tell about their customer experience in a special report.
Customer Experience is a key term.
Basically, it is the total of your abilities to make your customers adore your business or to disappoint them.
This experience defines the level of customer's satisfaction with your service and directly influences his decision about the first and the further purchases, as well as the reviews and recommendations that the customer will spread in his social circles.
We developed a set of criteria for thorough analysis of the customers' experience, which we adjust to each specific situation. We also ensured that these criteria were effectively used.
4 efficiency bases of the technology Mystery Shopper application
Good preparation
A big strategic base
Smart-processing of the results
Compulsory and immediate integration
Our base of the trained and certified 4service agents includes more than 320 thousands people in different countries. Our Secret Shoppers complete three-leveled training, and the relevance of their reports is regularly controlled with the help of cross-project tendencies monitoring. The agents who tend to over- or understate the notes are sifted out.
The results processing and the use of the newest worldwide technologies are our particular pride
Thanks to its convenience and fast and quantitatively measurable effect of the program, Mystery Shopping is applied to various types of business, where there is direct communication with the customer.
What tasks do the companies solve with the help of Secret Shoppers?
The organization of concealed control mode which keeps the staff "fit".
Allows detecting the defaults and focus the staff on their removal.
Possibility to motivate the staff to the specific actions which are significant to the Customer Experience and financial KPI /p>
Encouraging the best employees and taking to the team's arsenal the best practices.
Detailed learning of the strong and weak points of the competitors
The source of the necessary information for strategy development and investments direction
4service Secret Shoppers are the combination of service gourmets, secret agents and common people with unpredictable requests and mood changes.
It is a fine tool for exploring the service-climate of your organization, which allows to fully evaluate the impressions of your customers, to detect the problem areas and raise your customers' loyalty to the new level. Therefore, your incomes as well.

4Service market research – an efficient detecting of problems and weak points of your business
Every manager perfectly knows that it is necessary to research the market in order to develop the business successfully. But only few companies really do it in a regular way. For that lots of reasons can be found: the lack of trained employees, absence of the reliable database of the respondents, lack of skills to analyse and generalise the information. 4Service specialists will provide you with real help, collecting the necessary information quickly and efficiently.
Why there is a need to make the researches
Marketing researches is an important tool to detect the state of affairs on the market, your position there and your weak points. During the telephone surveys great results can be obtained with the help of specially prepared questionnaires.
The research can be directed on various subjects:
Customers' satisfaction with a brand in a certain segment;
Brand's recognisability;
Defining the main criteria of the audience choice;
Level of customers' loyality;
Service quality in the point of sales and other important aspects.
The researches conducted with the help of telephone survey offer some undeniable advantages in comparison with the real communication:
- Possibility of simultaneous survey on a big territory.
- Low cost of the research and decreasing expenses for the business trips.
- Instant data receiving and processing.
- Full control of the employees' work, conducting the survey.
Why the 4Service researches are always efficient
4Service gladly researches the market for our clients. We have at our disposal "live" call-centre with competent specialists. Before starting the survey, each of them undergoes additional trainings and sets a preparatory testing.
The data received during the survey is instantly posted on the web-site and becomes available for the further analysis. The company management ordered the research can analyse the situation and make amendments in the real-time mode.
The special software SHOPMETRICS, developed in the USA allows an efficient processing of the filled questionnaires and make the analysis according to different parameters (age, gender, social status, place of living). Working with it is totally convenient.
4Service market research is an efficient help in business developing. Our telephone surveys are adjusted to the specific problem and detect existing defaults. You learn the truth and receive the possibility to evaluate the actual state of your own business. We easily get down to realising even the most audacious projects; we treat you with love and provide you with positive results.
Do you want to find out people's attitude towards some product? – We will help!
Are you trying to understand why people reluctantly purchase your product? – We will provide you with clear answer!
Do you want to know how loyal the customers are towards your brand? – We will present you the actual data!

4Service promotion audit – an efficient way to control the promotional offers.
In order to stimulate the product sales and to attract the customers' attention towards the new product, the producers organize special promotions. For their realization the promoters get involved and considerable sums of money are allocated. 4Service promotion audit helps to control thoroughly the efficiency of the promotional offer.
Why the producers need a promotion audit
Organizing of the promotional offers in a correct way is a serious job of big number of people united by the competent management. Such events are often conducted in several stores at a time, which makes it difficult for the management to control its efficiency.
Involving a third-party firm in promotional audit with a large number of employees allows to the producer the following:
- Controlling the presence of promoters on the spot, as well as the time when they come and leave.
- Checking the quality of promoters' work
- Getting the truthful information about the presence advertising material.
- Efficiently amending the situation in case of errors.
Why our promotional audit is always effective
4Service closely cooperates with the companies providing them with promotional audit services. More than 99% of clients contact us again to order this service for the following reasons:
A great number of trained auditors among our secret shoppers provide the simultaneous control on a huge territory.
Online portal and use of special program software allow the client to get the information from all over the country in real-time mode.
Our employees apart from providing you with the data about the current situation and make the specific recommendation in order to improve your service,
During the visits our auditors collect the specific data (audio records, photographs). You get at your disposal the accurate information substantiated with the artefacts and the filled questionnaires.
4Service promotional audit is powerful indeed. Its efficiency has been proved thousands of times in trade networks all over Eastern Europe. Hundreds of our business partners were able to make sure that the data that we carefully collect for you is absolutely accurate.

Primary Contributions (2)
Saccharum officinarum perennial grass of the family Poaceae, primarily cultivated for its juice from which sugar is processed. Most of the world's sugarcane is grown in subtropical and tropical areas. The plant is also grown for biofuel production, especially in Brazil, as the canes can be used directly to produce ethyl alcohol (ethanol). The by-products from cane sugar processing, namely the straw and bagasse (cane fibres), can be used to produce cellulosic ethanol, a second-generation biofuel. Other sugarcane products include molasses, rum, and cachaça (a Brazilian alcohol), and the plant itself can be used as thatch and as livestock fodder. This article treats the cultivation of the sugarcane plant. For information on the processing of cane sugar and the history of its use, see sugar. The sugarcane plant produces a number of stalks that reach 3 to 7 metres (10 to 24 feet) high and bear long sword-shaped leaves. The stalks are composed of many segments, and at each joint there is a...READ MORE

Ozone System for Agriculture, Food and Wine
Since the early 1990s wineries have been experimenting with ozone as an alternative to sanitizers like chlorines and sulfur dioxide. This has provided added benefit of reducing water usage, power consumption, and chemical treatment.
By Piper Environmental Group, Inc. based in Castroville, CALIFORNIA (USA).
Water treatment for water distribution systems
As a selective oxidizing agent, chlorine dioxide possesses several chemical advantages when compared to the traditional use of chlorine in wastewater treatment. Chlorine dioxide does not hydrolyze in water, and thus it retains its biocidal activity over a broader range of pH. It is also non reactive with ammonia and most nitrogen-containing compounds, and thus effective at lower dose levels than chlorine. It also eliminates phenols, simple cyanides and sulfides by oxidation. Likewise it is effective at odor control and will oxidize sulfides. Chlorine dioxide is also effective at oxidizing iron and manganese compounds.

Early Warning Systems for Drinking water
Drinking water supply and distribution systems around the world (a critical and interdependent component of a nation's infrastructure) are vulnerable to both intentional and accidental contamination. Unusual water quality may serve as a warning of potential contamination. The available physico-chemical sensors utilize general water quality parameters, such as free chlorine, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), total organic carbon (TOC), turbidity, pH, dissolved oxygen, chloride, ammonia, nitrate to detect the contamination. Generally, one or more of these water quality parameters will change due to the injection of a contaminant. However, no single chemical sensor responds to all possible contaminants nor can they give any indication of the potential toxicity of complex mixtures.

Ozone/UV systems for swimming pool water treatment
Studies have proven that chlorine use has negative consequences due to the formation of byproducts, i.e. chlorinated organic compounds and chloramines. Irritation of eyes and mucous membranes, drying out the skin as well as "chlorine smell" are well known troubles. However, these byproducts also accelerate the corrosion in pool halls and significant risk is given by their toxicity (chloramines, combined chlorine) and/or carcinogenicity. Higher rate of asthma prevalence is one of the consequences. These are the reasons why the combined chlorine content - as a marker of chlorination byproducts presence - is to be monitored and why its limit values are specified by authorities. To meet the limits can be tedious and expensive because more water has to be changed and heated up. Chlorine disinfection is not sufficient to prevent infections caused by some waterborne pathogens as dangerous protozoan parasites Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia.

Applications and Air Pollutants Removed in Municipal Water Treatment Plants
Applications include: emergency chlorine scrubber systems for cylinder storage area. Removal of powdered carbon particulate emitted from storage silo vents during the loading operation.
Water treatment for breweries
A brewery process presents one of the biggest challenges possible to a microbiological control program. Microorganisms are responsible for both the production and the degradation of the product. Microbial control is also critical for production and filling equipment. A brewing environment offers various applications where chlorine dioxide may be employed, like as terminal sanitizing rinse in the CIP systems or sanitizer for pasteurizers or filler head assemblies.
Water treatment for food processing
Most food processing facilities currently use a combination of different chemicals for all surface and machine disinfection. They periodically rotate the use of different sanitizers to prevent the harmful microorganisms from building a resistance to their killing properties. Unfortunately facilities are still experiencing pathogen outbreaks. Chlorine dioxide's unique killing ability does not allow for the build up of resistance or mutation, and therefore eliminates the need for all of the other chemicals. Chlorine dioxide is effective for use in controlling microbiological growth in flume waters and other food processing water systems such as chill water systems and hydrocoolers.
Secondary disinfection treatment for commercial & institutional
Waterborne illness from microbial growth in water distribution systems is a real threat to water safety. MIOX's patented Mixed Oxidant Solution (MOS) chemistry for secondary disinfection can help eradicate biofilm that can harbor Legionella and other microorganisms without the use of Chlorine Dioxide. MIOX generators improve workplace safety by eliminating the handling and storage of hazardous chemicals while maintaining steady disinfection residuals.
By MIOX Corporation - Johnson Matthey`s Water Technologies based in Albuquerque, NEW MEXICO (USA).
Water treatment for legionella prevention and control
Whether you find yourself in a hotel bath room, cruise ship cabin, hospital, office building, industrial plant, greenhouse, car wash facility or your own hot tub, the combination of certain temperature levels, stagnant water and the presence of biofilm in water systems is a potential recipe for disaster: an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease. An outbreak of Legionnaires' disease is often the result of negligence, having legal repercussions for responsible parties. Because of its chemical and biocidal characteristics, chlorine dioxide is ideal for maintaining good standards of water hygiene. Chlorine dioxide has consistently been demonstrating to be the best molecule for eradicating the causative organism of Legionnaires' disease.

LG seems to be joining the 'big brother-small brother' bandwagon of smartphone launches with a new phone named LG G4c poised for a launch in the coming days.
Spotted by Phone Arena, the new gadget appeared in the listings of a Dutch retailer with the model number LG-H525N and a release date of May 12, barely ten days away!
Even though the G4 suffered numerous leaks and industry watchers knew almost everything about the flagship before it was launched, nobody ever came across any leaked reference or an LG statement with reference to the G4c yet.
At the same time, given LG have not announced the new phone yet, it seems highly unlikely that the device could actually release in only ten days from today.
However, just in case LG succeeded in keeping the new device a secret and is peparing to launch it in the coming days, we decided to put together a list of specs that the G4c should probably feature:
OS Android 5.2 lollipop
Battery 2000 mAH
Storage 16GB plus extra microSD slot
Memory 2GB RAM
Processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 chip
Camera 8MP primary and 2MP front cameras
Display IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen
Features Accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, Bluetooth, 4GLTE, WiFi

Game On! live blogged the British Open's first round today. Thomas Bjorn of Denmark and 20-year-old English amateur Tom Lewis share the lead after shooting 65s.
PHOTO GALLERY: British Open
ESPN is covering the tournament.
FOLLOW: In-progress scores
3:43: Ryan Palmer ends with a par for a -2round of 68. He's tied for seventh. Join us again tomorrow for a live blog of the second round.
3:30: Ryan Palmer slips to -2 and is playing the 18th. We'll close out his round, and then call it a day for the live blog. But we'll be back tomorrow morning for the second round.
3:14: There are just six groups left on the course. A rather stunning 36 players are under par at the moment.
3:11: Ryan Palmer gets in a bunker and gives back a stroke with a bogey on 16. He's at -2.
3:01: Webb Simpson closes with a birdie for a 4-under round of 66. He and Lucas Glover are the top Americans, tied for third.
2:49: Ricky Barnes, the last man in the field after a spot opened up because of injury, finishes the day at -2 after nine consecutive pars. He had only one bogey.
2:46: Webb Simpson birdies the 17th and joins Ryan Palmer in a tie for fifth at -3.
2:43: Ryan Palmer is alone in fifth place at -3 after birdies on the 12th and 14th. Other Americans still on the course with a chance to move up in good conditions are Ricky Barnes (-2 through 17) and Webb Simpson (-2 through 16).
2:38: Lewis on ESPN, about having the lowest-ever round by an amateur at the British Open (Tiger Woods is one of three who had a share of the former record, at 66): "I wouldn't have thought that, any day, so I'm thrilled." Lewis added that, tonight, "I'm just going to try to relax and get away from people."
2:26: Tom Lewis gets in trouble with his drive but recovers well and saves par with a solid 4-foot putt. That gives him a round of 18, the lowest ever at the British Open by an amateur. It's also the first time an amateur has at least a share of the lead after the first round at a major championship since Mike Reid at the 1976 U.S. Open in Atlanta. Tom Watson finishes at +2.
2:15: Mickelson has to take a drop on 18, but he recovers with a great approach shot and has his par putt circle around and drop. He finishes at even par after failing to take advantage of very favorable conditions.
2:06: Steve Stricker closes out a 1-under round of 69. The current forecast calls for more calm weather Friday morning, when the players who are playing this afternoon will be on the course. Then the winds are expected to pick up in the afternoon, making it difficult for the players who also faced tough conditions this morning.
2:03: We have a new co-leader, as Tom Lewis buries a 14-footer for birdie on 17 to get to -5. The 20-year-old amateur looks perfectly calm -- and why not after four consecutive birdies? He's playing in the same group as his namesake, Tom Watson.
1:57: Mickelson is solid on an 8-foot putt for par on 17, after getting in trouble with a long approach. He's still even for the day.
1:55: Two Americans are in good position to make a move. Ricky Barnes is at -2 through 14 and Justin Leonard also is 2-under, through 12. Barnes has made five straight pars, and Leonard has eight in a row.
1:51: Lewis drains his 5-footer for a birdie, and the 20-year-old amateur is now at -4, one shot off the lead.
1:46: Tom Lewis, the 20-year-old amateur from England, is rallying nicely after a couple of bogeys. He birdied 14 and 15 to get back to -3. And his tee shot on 16 has him in great position for another bird.
1:43: Mickelson pars the 16th. Didn't give himself much of a chance to birdie the 163-yard par-3, the shortest hole on the course.
1:41: More trouble for Tom Watson. He bogeys back-to-back and is +2 through 15.
1:38: Bubba Watson is -1 through 17. He missed his chance to move up, settling for pars on 15-16-17, a stretch of the course that has been playing fairly easy.
1:35: Tom Watson bogeys the par-5 14th and is +1 for the day.
1:32: Mickelson misses badly on a long birdie try on 15. He's still at even par.
1:28: The 18th continues to take a toll on much of the field. Kyle Stanley bogeys there and has to settle for a 2-under round of 68. Stanley was the final qualifier for the tourney.
1:22: Here's an important correction. Lucas Glover actually birdied the 18th, so he's in the clubhouse at -4, not -3. That round of 66 is his best at the British Open and leaves him tied for second with Jimenez, one shot behind leader Thomas Bjorn of Denmark.
1:17: Tom Watson birdied the 12th and is at even par through 13 holes.
1:14: Mickelson misses his eagle putt on the 14th but makes the short birdie and is back to even par for the day.
1:13: Lucas Glover completes a -3 round and is the top American in the clubhouse, tied for third.
1:10: The feared winds have died out entirely, contrary to the forecast, and 30 players are under par.
1:07: Mickelson pars the 13th an is on the green in two with an excellent chance for eagle onthe par-5 14th.
12:59: Lucas Glover is closing fast. He birdied the 16th and 17th and is tied for third at -3. But don't forget that No. 18 is the hole that's playing the toughest today.
12:52: Brandt Snedeker ends a long day at 5-over 75.
12:48: Mickelson saved par after a rough start on 12 and remains +1. The pack of nine that's tied for fourth at -2 now includes three Americans: Ricky Barnes (through 10), Justin Leonard (8) and Ryan Palmer (7).
12:43: Bubba Watson's 20-footer for birdie trickles in. He's at -1 after 14.
12:38: Ricky Barnes, who got into the field at the last second this morning, is off to a good start, at -2 through 9.
12:32: Mickelson makes a nice recovery shot onto the green after that drive into the rough on No. 12.
12:30: Justin Leonard keeps making pars and is tied for fifth at -2 through six holes.
12:26: Mickelson gets out of the bunker but misses a short putt for a bogey that leaves him at +1 through 11. And his tee shot on 12 looks wayward.
12:16: The 18th is the hole that's playing the toughest, and it hits Kyle Stanley with a closing bogey. But the American still shoots a 2-under 68 and is tied for fifth. Mickelson is in trouble on the 10th and driving into a deep bunker.
12:10: Mickelson had a chance to get into the red numbers for the first time but couldn't sink an 8-footer on No. 10. He's still at even par.
12:05: Kyle Stanley pars No. 17 and remains the top American, tied for third at -3.
12:02: Tom Watson curls in a putt from 10 feet to stay at even par through nine holes.
11:57: Westwood bogeys the ninth but gets it back with a birdie on No. 10 to remain +2. Defending champ Louis Oosthuizen also has been grinding. He's +3 through9 holes. The weather remains calm after those early winds.
11:49: Mickelson just misses a 50-foot putt and stays at even par through 8 holes.
11:45: Tom Lewis, an amateur from England who was named after Tom Watson, is two shots off Bjorn's lead after a birdie on No. 8 puts him at -3.
11:42: Watson saves par and remains even through 8.
11:36: Leonard gets back on track after that bogey, saving par nicely on No. 5 to stay at -2.
11:35: Kyle Stanley is thoroughly in the hunt. A short birdie putt on No. 16 gets the former Clemson player to two shots off the lead, at -3.
11:31: The wind is down to 4 mph. Time to make a move.
11:25: Watson goes just right with a 10-foot try for birdie, and remains at even par through seven holes.
11:23: Mickelson gets his first birdie of the day, on the par-5, 564-yard seventh, and is at even par for the round.
11:20: Leonard falters after opening with three birds. He misses a 5-footer on the fourth and drops to -2.
11:16: Watson pars the 6th and remains even. Bubba Watson had to work out of a deep bunker on No. 7, but saved par and has made two more pars to stay at -1 through the 9th. It appears the wind has abated, so maybe we'll see some good scoring.
11:09: Chad Campbell gives a stroke right back, with a bogey on No. 15 that drops him back to -1.
11:05: Lee Westwood continues to rebound from that three-hole string of bogeys. He birdies the seventh and is +2 now.
11:02: Chad Campbell is another American who's moving up the leader board. He birdies the 14th to go -2.
10:57: Justin Leonard looks like the great American hope so far. He has birdies on the first three holes to go -3. He sank an 8-footer cleanly on the third.
10:50: Watson misses a 6-footer on the fifth and has his first bogey of the round, to nudge him back to even par.
10:44: Westwood does not get the birdie but he stopped the bogey bleeding problem.
10:40: After three consecutive bogeys, Lee Westwood has given himself about 12 feet for birdie on the par 3, 6th.
10:31: Kyle Stanley, who got into the tournament because he was highest finisher after Steve Stricker in the John Deere, is now -2.
10:30: Watson with another long putt to save par. He remains at -1. Does this guy own the British Open or what? Like the Fountain of Youth to him.
10:26: At the 419-yard, par 4, 5th, Mickelson goes with hybrid and is in great position again. The four-time major winner has to be pleased with his start. He's not getting the crowd on its feet but he's also not looking a big plus number. A fair tradeoff.
10:21: Mickelson hits 12-footer to save par. After an opening bogey he is playing solid golf and if anyone needs a solid opening round it is the left-hander. Every expert expects him to shoot himself out of the tournament so it would be kind of fun if they have to eat their words on Sunday. Hasn't happened too often in this tournament for Phil though. You can safely criticize him and not have to eat your words it seems.
10:13: Is there a better long putter than Mr. Watson? He's at -1 with a beauty on No. 3.
10:08: Bubba Watson has sneaked himself onto the leaderboard at -1 after five holes. At least we've got one left-handed USA player up there.
9:57: Mickelson picking up his game. Has a nice tee shot on the par 3, No. 3. He's got about 12-15 feet for a birdie to get himself back to even.
9:54: Schwartzel birdies No. 2 to go -1.
9:46: On his approach on No.2, Mickelson hits to about 12 feet. He is in birdie range but nothing, including par, is guaranteed on these greens.
9:45: Watson, putting from off the green, lags a long putt to where he's got 3-4 feet for an opening par.
9:42: Sergio Garcia who finished even par said it his putting that is bringing his game back. "I feel like I've been playing good and putting nicely."
9:36: Mickelson starts with bogey. But, hey, so did McIlroy. Schwartzel, after having a chip roll back to his feet, takes out putter and puts the ball in for a par.
9:33: Watson swats it down the center of the fairway. Color me shocked. The man is a machine.
9:32: Tom Watson, perhaps the greatest British Open player of all-time, is on the tee. I knew Harry Vardon, Harry Vardon was a friend of mine and he sir was no Tom Watson.
9:27: Mickelson from a buried lie in the fescue. He is really worried about the lie. He is saying "I can't get to the ball" to his caddie Bones. So of course he blasts out and is now in position for an up and down.
9:26: Broadcast just mentioned this is 13th major played without a Tiger win. Ouch.
9:21: Louis, Phil and Martin are on the tee. Oosthuizen goes into the rough, Kaymer rips it dead center and Mickelson also goes into the rough. Mickelson has had trouble in early British Open rounds.
9:11: If Steve Stricker can convince himself he's playing at the John Deere, this field will be chasing him for four days. He begins the British Open by pushing his tee shot into the rough. His playing partner Lee Westwood striped it as did Masters champ Charl Schwartzel. This is a heck of pairing.
9:05: "Not much" McIlroy said about what felt different in the first round. "Sort of say there are 68 holes left in the tournament...good to get a couple of bogeys out of the way early" he added about his slow start.
9:02: The threesome of Martin Kaymer, Louis Oosthuizen and Phil Mickelson about 20 minutes away. Oosthuizen was just shown on TV and he looks like a UPS driver in his all-brown outfit. But when you're the defending champion you look good in everything.
8:58: We have watched the Open for almost five hours before there was a mention of a 14-time major winner. It just came. That has to be a modern-day record. Tiger we hardly knew ye.
8:55: McIlroy's birdie putt slides by on the left side. A birdie to get to even money would have been so huge. He'll tap in for 71 (+1). Not a bad round but he won't be running and hiding on Day 1 this time. Fowler finished at even par.
8:51: Great approach from McIlroy. He's about 10 feet from the third birdie on the hole on the day and back-to-back birdies for him. He's now showing the major winning talent. A birdie will get him to even par.
8:43: After a great birdie on No. 17, McIlroy is trying to end the day on a good note with a bomb off the tee on the 18th. However, only two players have birdied No. 18. A birdie-birdie finish would put him right in the mix at even par.
8:32: Sergio saves par on 15 the a great curling putt. He remains at -2. Garcia was in the rough, the bunker and then hit the great putt. If he challenges, this will be the hole they continue to play over and over again as an indication of his ability to remain on course.
8:25: McIlroy has had the kind of a day in which birdie putts hang on the lip and he did it again on 16. He remains a +2. Not playing disastrous golfer but also not playing Rory McIlroy back-to-back major title golf either.
8:17: The man is taking a flamethrower to the place. Dustin Johnson has now gone to -1 with birdie-birdie-ace-birdie. Haven't we all been there, done that?
8:11: Great visual. Miguel A. Jimenez (-4) being interviewed after his round clutching onto his famous cigars. His ready to light up. This is a man who loves the life.
8:10: McIlroy cannot hold his approach on No. 15 as it rolls off the left side.
8:08: The problems continue for McIlroy (+2) as he airmails his tee shot on No. 15 into the deep rough. You can see the ball so perhaps he'll be able to get a full club on it. But at at 496-yard, par 4, this is not the ideal position to be working from.
8:03: This could be a good day for Sergio (-2). He just hit a wild shot on No. 14 that hit the grandstand and bounced out into the fairway. It is nice to be good it is better to be lucky.
8:00: Jimenez (-4) hit a beautiful approach shot on No. 18 and is going to save his par. Better than beautiful. Spectacular. He hits the two-footer and finishes at 66.
7:57: Dustin Johnson aced No. 16 and is now even par. A hole-in-one always helps the scorecard. Probably didn't ground his club on that one. I guess he'll have to buy drinks for the entire field.
7:52: On No. 14, from 280 yards out, McIlroy hops into a bunker. Some trouble but not major trouble we are being told.
7:48: What is up with Sergio? He hits a beautiful birdie putt on No. 13 to go to -2. We remember when he was "The Kid." To win a major when he's been shoved to the background would be ironic. Jimenez (-4) is in some trouble on 18.
7:44: Light those cigars. M.A. Jimenez is now -4.
7:40: McIlroy leaves a par putt on the lip of No. 12 and is back to +2. He had a nice rhythm going for a string of holes but that ends. He is seven strokes back of the leader.
7:36: Former champion alert. David Duval is +4. Ben Curtis is +7. Stewart Cink is -1. John Daly is even par.
7:30: McIlroy from the junk on No. 11 comes up short on his approach shot. Since the lie had a bit of disaster written on it, it was a decent outcome for McIlroy.
7:29: Sergio Garcia hits a spectacular approach on No. 12. He's 18 inches from birdie and going -1. Perhaps that famous grin will appear after being MIA for years.
7:23: Ryan Moore finishes at 69 (-1). The USA is making some noise. So much for the 24% who voted that a USA player couldn't win in our poll. "It's not pretty golf, you just have to get it around," Moore said about links golf. "I enjoy that."
7:20: On No. 12, McIlroy's long birdie putt slips by and he'll settle for par. After two bogeys in his first two holes, the U.S. Open winner has settled way down. We haven't seen those slumped shoulders in over an hour. For those body language readers this is a good sign.
7:10: Bjorn (-5) was indeed asked about the 16th hole in 2003. "A lot of people make a lot of things out of it...I felt the only way I could play golf was concentrate on every shot...I got on a good run. I was so focused and so concentrated on what I had to do so it never really entered my mind....I was proud of the way I allowed myself to play today."
7:01: The promos for the British Open at Royal St. George's are being done by actor Ian McShane. Along with Omar from "The Wire" has there been a better character ever than Al Swearengen? Deadwood indeed.
7:00: Bjorn bogeys No. 18. He'll finish at 65 (-5) but now he can hear all the questions about the demons from 2003 at Royal St. George's and the sand trap incident. A great, great round by Bjorn was he's going to be a bit bummed with the finish.
6:58: Bjorn's chip is also not a good one. He's got about 10 feet for par.
6:55: The rain is picking up and commentator Paul Azinger promises that it "will get miserable" out there. How good does Bjorn have to be feeling at -6?
6:52: Bjorn is standing on the 18th fairway and sitting on history. If he can birdie No. 18 he be one of the few to ever shoot 63 in a major. His second shot is a not a great one. It rolls off the side. He'll now be happy with up and down.
6:46: Out of the rough, McIlroy gets his second shot on No. 10 to a cozy position on the green. Well played. He ends up with par (+1) as does Fowler (-2).
6:43: McIlroy begins the back 9 by missing the fairway left on his drive. Bjorn, on No. 18 (459 yards) pulls out driver and bombs it past the bunkers.
6:40: The umbrellas (or bumbershoots if you prefer) are coming out. It is spitting as Scott Van Pelt just said.
6:35: McIlroy finishes the front at +1 (36). Fowler finishes same nine at -2. Bjorn is now heading to the 18th at -6. He is dancing on those 2003 Royal St. George's demons.
6:31: Cink's birdie putt slides by. He'll remain at -3.
6:28: Cink is looking at birdie on No. 12. The British Open seems to be the tonic for his struggling golf game. He can get to -4. On No. 17, leader Thomas Bjorn (-6) hits a another terrific tee shot. I'm looking up dialed in in the dictionary right now.
6:23: Miguel Jimenez is now also at -3. The taming of the shrew known as Royal St. George's is underway.
6:20: Okay, now Bjorn is starting to show off. His tee shot on the par 3, No. 16 is back in birdie range. Your new leader in the clubhouse is the 51-year old Mark Calcavecchia (-3). Who says the USA can't compete for major titles?
6:16: Another birdie for Cink (-3) and the first for McIlroy (+1). Game On! However, Bjorn is going with the scorched earth policy. He has just gotten himself to -5. Bjorn needed players to withdraw to get in the field and Cink missed the cut at the Masters and the U.S. Open. Golf is a cruel mistress.
6:14: McIlroy replaces 7-iron for 6-iron on his approach at No. 8. Nice choice. He's inside 10 feet for a chance at his first birdie.
6:11: Maybe someone will indeed run and hide. Bjorn (-4) hit a beauty of an approach shot on No. 15 and could easily go to -5. He had a heartbreak the last time the title was contended at Royal St. Georges. Perhaps this will put those demons to sleep.
6:10: Clubhouse leader Danny Willett is the 2007 British Amateur Champion. He's being asked about McIlroy. He has to hope on Sunday they'll be asking him about his own round.
6:07: Ben Curtis, who won the tournament the last time it was at Royal St. Georges, is +2 along with McIlroy. A very fashionable neighborhood it appears with former major winner Angel Cabrera also living there.
6:03: Bjorn is now -4 but also on fire is 2009 winner Stewart Cink who is at -2. We didn't get Sweden vs. USA in World Cup but perhaps we'll get Denmark-USA on Sunday anyway at the British Open.
6:02: McIlroy takes iron on the long (453 yards) par 4, No. 8. He spanks it. McIlroy is hitting the ball much, much better but can't seem to get his minus numbers.
5:56: McIlroy missed a short birdie putt on No.7. He'll get par but he really needed that birdie. Heavy lies the crown.
5:55: If you want the Claret Jug you'll have to pry it from Danny Willett's fingers. He is the clubhouse leader at -1, 69.
5:53: McIlroy now a short chip for his third shot on the par 5, No. 7. We don't want to say this a must birdie hole but what the heck...this is a must birdie for McIlroy just to get him back to the McIlroy we need him to be.
5:50: Thomas Bjorn remains the leader at -3 but the field is bunched up behind him. This will not be a run and hide scenario that the U.S. Open turned into. At least not early.
5:44: ESPN analyst Paul Azinger likes McIlroy's swing thus far but says the letdown after a major win is tough to overcome. He's at the par 5, No. 7 which could serve to be his slap in the face as he hit a bomb off the tee. Is the eagle/birdie that opens up the flood gates?
5:41: One more reminder. For your reading pleasure, my colleague Steve DiMeglio went to McIlroy's hometown of Holywood and talked to the locals about the 22-year-old star. Available online and in today's USA TODAY.
5:36: The birdie putt by McIlroy from 9 feet comes up just short. He taps him for par to remain at +2. When we said at the U.S. Open that he's playing a game we are not familiar with this is not what we are talking about. The sharpness seems to have leaked from his game in the three weeks he took off. Of course we are liable to see him run off a string of minus numbers. His resume certainly makes us think its possible.
5:33: Cink chips in from the bunker on No. 8 to go to -1. Maybe he's the guy we should be looking at.
5:30: McIlroy's takes 8-iron on the par 3, No. 6 and its a beauty. He has his first real chance for a birdie. Is this where we say it all started in his back-to-back major march?
5:25: How tough and deep are the bunkers. Aaron Baddeley tried to hit one left-hander without a reverse grip. It hit the face of the bunker. Also, disaster averted. McIlroy did hit his par putt.
5:21: McIlroy has a nice chip but has a tester for his par on No. 5. Could it be three bogeys in five holes? That would put him five shots behind the leaders.
5:18: McIlroy from 210 yards on No. 5 hooks left. Not a disaster. He needs a nifty up and down for par. We have come to expect amazing from the 22-year-old and thus far in the British Open we are not getting it. The curse of expectations.
5:11: A repeat of of 1995? John Daly has birdied No.1. Not sure if the Loud Mouth pants come with a fleece lining to protect Daly from the 50-degree weather.
5:10: The fifth hole is a 419-yard, par 4. Players are not using driver because they can run out of fairway. McIlroy smoked his 3-iron and has a mound to go over that protects the green.
5:06: McIlroy makes his par putt to remain +2 after four holes.
5:00: McIlroy actually got a good lie in the rough and hits a beauty onto the green. He placed the ball on the up-slope. Probably McIlroy's best shot early in this round.
4:57: Not a lot of good things happening for McIlroy early. On No. 4 he put his tee shot off the fairway. With two bogeys in three holes, the U.S. Open champion could use some solid back-to-back shots and to put a couple of pars in his quiver. Sometimes par is good at the British Open is such a cliche and so true.
4:50: Getting a little messy for McIlroy. He is now +2 after three holes. A bad chip cost him on the par 3, No.3. Fowler also bogeys and is now even.
4:48: McIlroy goes fluffy on his second shot and has given himself a semi-tough putt for par. The guy who bet 20,000 (pounds) on RM has to be feeling a little uneasy.
4:44: McIlroy's tee shot on the par 3, No. 3 goes screaming to the back to the green. He's got about 30 feet for a birdie. Thus far, McIlroy is playing solidly but without the dramatic flare we saw at Congressional. No drama at the British Open is often a recipe for good things.
4:40: McIlroy also pars No.2 and is at +1.
4:39: Fowler saves par on No. 2 with a nice putt and remains -1. Meanwhile, Ryan Moore of the USA is at -2 and trails Bjorn by a stroke.
4:35: Early on the wind and green conditions are leading to a lot of balls rolling well past the flag. With the humps the ball will release and go very easily.
4:31: Bjorn is taking a flamethrower to the place. He's -3 after 8 holes.
4:29: McIlroy goes with iron to avoid the bunkers on the par 4, No. 2. He's in solid shape. Thomas Bjorn and Calcavecchia are now your leaders at -2.
4:25: For your reading pleasure, my colleague Steve DiMeglio went to McIlroy's hometown of Holywood and talked to the locals about the 22-year-old star. Available online and in today's USA TODAY.
4:23: A great birdie for Fowler as he rolls in from about 30 feet. McIlroy from the same spot rolls about 6 feet past. He then misses his comeback and bogeys No.1.
4:22: Sergio Garcia begins his round with a solid tee shot that rolls left.
4:15: Fowler's approach rolls off the back of the green. McIlroy does the same and nestles next to Fowler's.
4:10: The game is afoot! Els stripes his drive down the middle. McIlroy, who got a great ovation when he was introduced, hits his first shot since the U.S. Open down the right side and slightly off the fairway. Fowler, flashing the all-black Johnny Cash look, puts his down the left side.
4:02: Calcavecchia (-2) and Moore (-1) remain the top USA players with Cink, Bill Haas, Bo Van Pelt, Todd Hamilton and Charley Hoffman all off to solid starts and at even par.
3:59: McIlroy is 10 minutes away. He is paired with Ernie Els and Ricky Fowler.
3:44: For all those insomniacs or early-risers who need your British Open fix before McIlory tees off. Mark Calcavecchia is leading at -2 with Danny Willett, Fredrik Jacobson, Thomas Bjorn, Ryan Moore and Alvaro Quiros at -1. And yes Moore is a USA player. Shocking we know. Stewart Cink, the 2009 winner, parred his opening hole.

How the Dutch stay slim
Nutritionist Mandy Dunlop reveals eight secrets that help the Dutch keep the bulge at bay.
What is it about the Dutch and their great love of fattening food? If they are not nibbling on deep fried meat rolls they are happily scarfing down fat sodden oliebollen. Yet judging by their slim figures, they effortlessly manage to ward off the bulge. The Dutch after all, are one of the least obese populations in Europe. So what are their slimming secrets? As an expat nutritionist, I went on a mission to find out.
1. Portion control
The Dutch love greasy foodstuff but have cleverly mastered eating in moderation. You will rarely see supersize portions served in restaurants here and one will often come away from a meal feeling satisfied as opposed to ''stuffed." Indeed, portion control is a fundamental tool to weight management in the Netherlands. Unlike America and the UK, who have progressively adopted a 'go large' approach to eating, the Dutch are still a good few years behind in these food trends.
2. Milking the benefits
Dutch people like to drink milk, a lot. Luckily, milk is a healthy choice if you are attempting to lose weight. Not only is milk low in calories, but also an excellent source of calcium, vitamin D and protein, which have all been linked to weight loss. In fact, recent research have shown that frequent consumption of low-fat milk helps reduce body fat in both men and women. Flavoured milk such as chocolate and coconut are favourites of the Dutch and available fat-free (0 percent vet).
3. Guilt-free snacks
Although the Dutch might have you believe that they eat only deep fried snacks, this is normally only a weekend indulgence. To stay in control of their weight, the Dutch prefer low-fat nibbles: ontbijtkoek, Dutch ''breakfast cake" is a popular choice. This scrumptious cake can be bought as a sliced snack and with less than 1g of fat per serving, is virtually fat-free. Another popular bite is the eirkoeken (egg cake). These spongy delights are low in fat and high in protein-ideal for filling you up.
4. Good timing
Unlike other Europeans who traditionally eat their evening meal after 8pm, the Dutch prefer to eat earlier at about 7pm. Although eating late is unlikely to result in weight gain, it may, however, contribute to more rapid fluctuations in blood sugars, ultimately leaving you more susceptible to overeating. So, eating earlier may minimise cravings and help you to make more sensible food choices.
5. Balanced lunch
Lunch in the Netherlands is usually a quick and light meal at around 12.30pm. A popular choice is cheese and meat layered on fresh bread. This provides a sensible balance of carbohydrates, protein and fat, which, in combination, keeps blood sugar levels balanced. Having a portion of good quality protein such as ham or cheese for lunch will also leave you feeling more satisfied and less likely to snack in the afternoon.
6. Coffees not lattes
The Dutch drink a lot of coffee. In fact, after the Scandinavian countries, they are the world's largest consumers. Surprisingly however, there is not a huge selection of coffee choices available here. The Dutch prefer black coffee over commercial lattes and mochas, which is good news for weight-watchers. Black coffee is fat free with only four calories per cup whereas lattes can contain up to 300 calories. Perhaps the Dutch were onto something when they named the latte koffie verkeerd, meaning "wrong coffee."
7. Cheese please
The Dutch love this stuff. When you consider that Dutch people have been making cheese since 400 AD, it's had little impact on the nation's waistbands. The secret ingredient: calcium. Cheese is a rich source of this essential mineral, which has been shown in numerous studies to enhance weight loss. Cheese is also a good source of protein, which boosts metabolism and can help burn an extra 150–200 calories per day. The key is to eat full fat cheese in moderation and choose low-fat varieties whenever possible.
8. Bicycles
The Dutch travel almost everywhere by bike. These two wheeled contraptions are so well-ingrained in Dutch culture that on average, each household owns at least three. Just going for a gentle 30 minute ride can burn 200 calories and if you're going out for dinner, be sure to take it along. Research has shown that leisure cycling after eating turns more of the consumed calories into heat, resulting in faster weight loss.

I am very much surprised to see this article is written by a "nutritionist". First of all you are contradicting yourself. You say the Dutch are healthy (partially) because od the large consumption of milk, but then you also state they stay thin because of NOT using milk in their coffee... Also, I am surprised how you encourage the consumption of milk, as many studies have shown that milk is not that good for you at all. The body can not absorb calcium from milk. Also, milk contains many ingredients human beings do not need (do not forget milk is to a cow what breastmilk is to a human. And you do not drink that for the rest of your life either). Milk contains nutrients for calfs to grow into cows. In many African countries, people do not even tolerate milk. Also, look at the amount of lactose intolerant people and lactose caused allergies etc.
Also I am surprised you say Dutch people love their fried stuff. That is not my experience at all. Admittetly, I come from a very health-aware family and I do not even have a fryer (I have recently bought an airfryer though). None of the people I know regularly eats fried foods. Maybe once or twice a month, but no more often than that. On the (extremely) rare occasion I end up in Mac Donalds (hate that greasy smelly GMO filled synthetic "food" dump) I do see a lot of families there who obviously do come there more often. Those are mostly people living on benefits though.
Especially on the markets, there is a wide variety of fresh veg and fruits for a relatively low price, so even someone living of benefits is still financially capable of preparing a healthy meal.
I do have one final question as I have red in two articles now that the Dutch drink coconut flavoured milk. Where can I buy this? It sounds awesome and I have never seen it in my 29 years of living in Holland...

I wouldn't say our diet is healthy per se. Most Dutch take in too many carbohydrates while lacking appropriate protein and fat intake. Most traditional Dutch dishes consist of mostly potatoes, which is why the balance between carbs, fats and protein is out of whack. Also, people eat a lot of sweets and the stuff served in bars is mostly deep-fried. The only thing that saves us from being as obese as our trans-Atlantic friends is the sheer amount of biking and walking we do, as well as our fondness for sports.
As for a healthy diet, I'd refer you to the northernmost part of the Mediterranean (Spain, Italy, Portugal, southern France, Greece.)

What rubbish about American food being tastier. american portions are giant. Americans eat when they don't need to.
I have recently visited Amsterdam. Obesity was almost unheard of. As a tourist you could guarantee anyone overweight was either from th he UK or the US. It was wasn't just guesswork but blindingly obvious. Whatever the Dutch eat, over generations had proved to work. They all have fantastic legs from cycling almost to extreme compared to us couch potatoes.
Stop making excuses for pigging out and stick to the basics - cut down on carbs, exercise more, and keep portions small. Oh, CW, your north American friends probably sit on their butts and ride the trams all day - and eat giant cheeses!
CW posted:
Okay, JSK...but why have so many people from North America moved here and ALSO gained weight?? That's what I'd like to know!
JSK posted:
As someone who has spend ample time is both the us and the netherlands, i have some observations. I do not think dutch people are particularily slim but they weigh less than americans *on average* plus there is a lot less variation between people (that is: dutch people are more average in general). So if i walk around on a american college campus there are more slim people (esp. women) than on a campus in the netherlands. However, in the american Walmart you see huge people the size of which you would very rarely observe in the Netherlands.
Why the average American weight is higher than the Dutch average, has to do with food and lifestyle, but not in the flattering way most people in the Netherlands think. Americans drive and eat more, but the reason is that automobiles are far more affordable and American food is a lot tastier (the supermarket freezer pizza of the brand "Digorno" is superior to Dutch restaurant pizza, for example). Place a dutch person in the U.S. and he'll gain 10 kilograms in no time (i'm speaking from experience).

Actualy someone has just posted the stats on teh soapbox showing the the NL has lower rates of obesity compared to the US (and UK)....
daphne posted:
I guess if the figures show they are slimmer than here in the US then they must do something different though? Plus, as a poster above has written the article is more about looking at why they are slimmer than the US rather than what is healthy re. caffeine. Good points though!
Laura posted:
Well written article but I beg to differ. I don't think the Dutch are paricularly slim! In fact, kind of the opposite. Lot's of tummy hidden behind the large shirts and sweaters, and the ever expandable leggings, hmm. My obersvation is this: they eat on the run, snack quite a bit - even which biking, and their market baskets are often filled with typical junk food. I am not sure if I would follow your suggestions for a healthy diet. Too much dairy and too much caffeine are the red flags for me.
daphne posted:
nice article thanks Mandy, I enjoyed it very much. Also, thanks to the guy above clearing a few things up. Not sure I understood a lot of the science but it sounds like you do! The article seems accurate following your explanations.
Keep up the good work, it is nice for us expats to have interesting things to read on here!!!!

N.B. For those doubting whether the inclusion of milk in the diet has any evidence for improving body composition and helping with fat loss, please look up the work of Professor Stuart Phillips from McMaster University in Canada who has published extensively on this subject. By way of example, please read the following article: Body composition and strength changes in women drinking milk. Josse AR, Tang JE, Tarnopolsky MA, Phillips SM. Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2010 Jun;42(6):1122-30. Justanother: This article is geared around lifestyle/diet and whether it is conducive to maintaining lower body fat, not about the Dutch diet and health. These are completely different discussions. Justanother/Maria: I think you may be confused, the article is discussing the merits of consuming 0% fat milk and suggesting that the (typically high fat) milk used for lattes and similar such coffees is less than ideal. Hopefully this has helped to clear this up. getalife: [edited] I am just passionate about the public understanding of nutrition and therefore feel that such inaccurate statements should be corrected. I disagree that I have insulted everyone, more pointed out errors in what they have written. Also, please simply google 'calories in 1 g of fat, protein, carbohydrate. I simply wish to set the record straight as nutrition is something we all should know more about! I see that expatica have issued a further 'poll'! Again, can I reiterate to the expatica admin staff, this article is not about whether the Dutch eat healthily as stated, but about whether their diet and lifestyle results in lower body fat. It is difficult to have a poll on this as if anyone wishes to look up the statistics, they will clearly see that obesity is far lower in Holland than in the majority of Western Europe and the US. This is not an opinion but based on the hard evidence which has been researched extensively. I applaud an interesting and insightful article based on scientific evidence to offer interesting theories! Well done! People, try not to take things so seriously and relax (this is an expat forum after all!). Cheers all! [Edited by moderator[
Nevercaught1Nice article!!! i think a lot of you are missing the point of what has been written here. When you actually read this article, it is referring to the low fat or fat free milk (o% vet) for helping to promote weight loss. Lattes are nearly always made with full fat milk- unless of course, you specifically ask for a skinny latte.

@Barri - Dear Sir, [edited by moderator] This is an open forum and everybody is entitled to their opinion. You liked the article 15 other people did not. and by the way: 1kg = 2.2lbs 3500 kCal = 1lb of fat 3500 cKal * 0.2 = 700 cKal 3500 cKal * 2 = 7000 cKal 7000 cKal 700 = 7700 cKal 7700 cKal in 1 kg of fat. not 9000 Sincerely!

I don't understand. Why is it ok to drink lots of milk, but it's not ok to have it in your coffee?
justanother posted:
Dutch eat no fruit and no vegetables. They eat the same sandwich every day, with butter, cheese and surrogate of ham. How can you call this healthy. Then the funny part is that according to the article one thing that helps is the fact that they drink black coffee instead of milk and coffee...but then at every meal they drink milk instead of water!!! [Edited by moderator]
Barry posted:
Sorry 'Dr K' I missed you out! so much wrong where? [Edited by moderator] The point on coffee - where did the sugar come into it? The author never mentioned this and this seems obvious not to add if you wish to lose weight. whats your point? Moreover, while coffee is a diuretic, it actually does not increase the excretion of calcium, rather the concentration in the urine becomes weaker and thus a similar amount is exceted in total. This has been attributed to effects of caffeine on the kidney but at present this is relatively unstudied, so I have no idea how you can be so overconfident when no one actually knows the mechanisms! High protein diets have indeed been linked to weight loss in the absence of exercise (please see my above points on the thermogenic effect of protein as well as the effect on appetite and, as such, the enormous amount of money Industry is starting to pay out for such research to be continued. Maybe when you are thinking of exercise and protein you are referring to icnreasing protein synthesis and muscle gains? If so, this really is a different area/discussion and not relevant to the present article. Hope that helps 'Doc' ! Cheers

As a scientist who has spent a number of years working in applied human nutrition, I thought I ought to just contribute to this unbelievable 'discussion'. In general, I think the critcicims are unfair, unfounded and seem to have a very personal nature. 'buitenlander' and 'are' - unfortunately, despite your observations, and the correct statement that Dutch people are indeed getting fatter, the statistics that they are still a great deal slimmer than the US and UK do not lie. The article seems to be comparing the Dutch to other western countries where the Ducth are (quite clearly if you examine the figures) far less overweight or obese. Gym freak - you seem to be very angry! However, you are incorrect in almost all you statments. 1) 1 gram of fat = 9 calories, this 1kg fat = 9000 calories, not 7000. 2) you are correct that weight loss is a matter of calories in and calories out, however, as much as many gym goers, wannabe nutritionists and folks with a weekend course qualificatino wish it were this simple, there is more too it. This is good for people like me as we make careers out of investigating and understanding such things! Countless scientific studies have demonstarted that eating protein causes a greater 'thermogenic' (i.e. the body producing heat) than fat and carbohydrate. Thus, a certain % (approx. 20%) is actually burned as heat as opposed to only 2-4% in the case of fat. Therefore, 100 calories of protein IS NOT necessarily the same as consuming 100 grams of fat in a calories in calories out sense. 3) Of course not all vegetarians are obese, but that is totally irrelevant and seems to again demonstrate your misunderstanding. I hoep I have helped to clarify a few things for you. 4) Exercising after eating is actually extremely effective in managing weight loss. Exercsiing increases the recruitment of capillaries (blood vessels) in the working muscle leading to higher heat production and delivery and use of the food just ingested, thus effectively burning any excess calories of the meal. Furthermore, 'light' exercise has not actually never been linked with increasing appetite, this is only heavier exercise. Lastly, as opposed to 'alternive research' this is very mainstream. Please see the work of Professor Wagenmakers (Dutch, ironically enough!) from the University of Birmingham if you don't wish to to take my word for it). Gym buddy - hidden advert? of course it is an advert, see the bottom of the article - doesn't mean it is incorrect! Please see my above comments if you agree with your 'gym' colleague. Hugo/Spanishexpat - you misunderstand the point, the nutritionist refers to eating cheese as part of the diet helps to increase caloric expenditure (150 calories) likely due to the thermic effect of protein (please see my above statement). This is actually very well accepted in the scientific community and has been for some years.
Andrea - any need to be so personal? I found the article a nice read and certainly woudln't cast such accusatinos without myself knowing what I am talking about! Please see my above point where I refer to the article comparing the Dutch to other countries as opposed to comparing with the past. [Edited by moderator] In general I applaud public discussions on nutrition. I myself give regular public lectures and am passionate about teh public becoming more aware- hence my coming across this article. However, all too often, gym goers and people who have read popular magazines cast themselves as 'experts' when in fact they know very little. It is a common problem in the field of nutrition - but one I witness most days of my working life. Particulalry on the internet people seem to get over confident, aggressive and rude Anyway, I hope I have cleared some things up for people who may have been confused, In general I very much enjoyed the article and thought it was well written and thought out. Congrats to the author! Cheers all.

So much wrongness here... Yes, it's true that black coffee has almost no calories at all. Regrettably, the same cannot be said of the sugar people routinely pour into it. Moreover, coffee is also a diuretic, and one of the things that goes away with your urine is calcium. So much for all the cheese and milk!
Besides, a protein-rich diet is appropriate only to the extent that you couple it with enough exercise to turn all those proteins into muscle. Otherwise, excess protein ends up turning into fat, just as excess carbohydrate does.
andrea posted:
I don't know where this "nutritionist" (her assertion about cheese is hilarious) lives and makes research. [Edited by moderator] Overweight and obesitas is increasing in NL, as it is in most countries and it is because of how they eat. They have coffee with koffiemelk, not with milk and they must have a cookie with it. Plus the awful squishy bread with those "salads" (mayo with unidentifiable stuff). And bottrerkoek as snack. A small note on the milk: it might be great for people from European descent that can handle milk but... how do people with lactose intolerance stay slim?
spanishexpat posted:
Self-contradicting article. On one hand, milk makes you slimmer (what?), and on the other, skipping the latte is good news for weight-watchers.
appetitvoyageAfter reading the article yesterday, a lot of questions came in my mind, so I would like to have some more info. I am not convince with the fact that the Dutch diet helps people to stay slim,... in my mind and culture, a sandwich is not healthy nor help to stay slim. Can you perhaps explain more about this?
The high content in dairy product in the Dutch diet, isn't it also a higher risk of cholesterol? And dairy products are quite fat,.. how exactly do they help to maintain a slim fit?
Finally, I do agree about the bike, but is it enough to balance the calories you eat during the day?
And what about fruits and vegetables? They are quite off the picture. Some of my relatives in visit here, was asking me if Dutch people eat fruits and vegetables. I find it really important in a diet (I am French), and I do not see a lot of vegetables in the traditionnal Dutch diet. What do they eat? potatoes, gabbage and apples? is it enough?
I would really appreciate to have some feedback and understand better the Dutch diet and tradition.

I gained 10 kilos after I moved here, eating a Dutch diet and cycling. Let's face it, tall skinny Dutch people marry tall skinny Dutch people and have tall skinny Dutch kids! It's in the DNA.
As the gene pool gets more mixed, I think we'll see more of a variety of shapes and sizes.
the thinker posted:
I think its genetics - Dutch people are tall and have lean muscles. They are not that predisposed to be fat the same way they are not predisposed to be well build. You can hardly see a really well build Dutchman as they have small bones and chests.
barbara posted:
My Dutch husband is slim, rides his bike 2 hours a day, eats bread and cheese for breakfast and lunch, and large amount of potatoes for dinner. All of my Dutch relatives and friends are slim, and I credit this to their bike riding and a moderate amount of food. Some may disagree; I am stating what I know as fact, not a global statement that ALL Dutch people are a certain way. But while living in Holland for ten years I saw more slim than fat people. When I left in 2006, I noticed some were gaining weight, but also were biking less and eating more fast foods or in restaurants.
Hugo posted:
What a non sense article.
Almost all dutchs drink coffie with coffie melk.
Cheese doesnt help to burn fat, it helps to burn an extra 150-200 calories per day ?????
Just going for a gentle 30 minute ride can burn 200 calories (thus is better to eat cheese than ride a bike ?

I can not agree with you more! Sounds to me like a hidden advertisement.

Key words in this article - fat free, calcium, weight loss. [Edited by moderator] 1) since when no fat means u lose weight..its all about calories - 1 kg of body fat =7000 calories. drink oil, eat cherries it does not matter - to lose 1 kg of fat u need to burn 7000 calories 2) Eating protein makes you lose weight..("...calcium, vitamin D and protein which have all been linked to weight loss"). again count the calories - what about these poor vegetarians who dont eat meat or drink milk (are they all morbidly obese??) 3) "...Cheese is also a good source of protein which boosts metabolism and can help burn an extra 150-200 calories per day) 100 gr Edam cheese = 357 cal. so how exactly do you lose weight with this (compare with 100 gr honey=300cal) 4) "...Research has shown that leisurely cycling after eating turns more of the consumed calories into heat, resulting in faster weight loss" - according to this exercising after meal is the best way to lose weight ( as opposing to simply making you hungry faster and make u eat more) - contradicts all the preexisting theories...must be a very alternative research Really!!! Please!!!
