5 Reasons to Write Down Everything You Eat For a Week

I lost 50 lbs. (going from a US size 10 to US size 4)by writing down everything I ate and making changes based on the results. The more I thought about it, the more I think this habit is good for anyone - dieters, and non-dieters alike.

You snack a lot more than you realize

Carry a notebook with you and jot down every item of food and drink that passes your lips

You’re not eating enough fruit and vegetables

Are you hitting your five servings of fruit and veggies every day? Maybe you reckon that you’re “close”. Chances are, you’re sometimes only getting two or three – if that.

You drink WAY too much soda

if you’re chugging down five cans of coke a day, you’re swallowing a total of 175 grams of sugar

You spend too much on junk

In addition to watching your food intake, you're also watching the budget.

You don’t get enough variety in your diet

Are you writing down the same things for meals almost every day?

Try to get more variety

i. Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

ii. Never use a long word where a short one will do.

iii. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

iv. Never use the passive where you can use the active.

V. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

vi. Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

These rules sound elementary, and so they are, but they demand a deep change of attitude in anyone who has grown used to writing in the style now fashionable. One could keep all of them and still write bad English, but one could not write the kind of stuff that I quoted in those five specimens at the beginning of this article.

Lehman Faces Loss, $4B Writeoff: Report

clipper's remarks: No great surprise, but none the less painful for that.

Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc (LEH.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) may post a third-quarter loss and suffer about $4 billion in write downs, according to an analyst at J.P. Morgan Securities, who also said a sale of the company's Neuberger Berman business was unlikely.

Lehman continues to have significant exposure to mortgages and asset-backed securities, totaling $61 billion, he noted.

The analyst said the fourth-largest U.S. investment bank may suffer a $4 billion write down given a decline in residential and commercial mortgage-related indices. He also said Lehman may have already been selling assets especially in its commercial mortgage portfolio.

Although there are a lot of different ways that you can get traffic to your website, one of the most effective that has been consistently used for years is writing good content. One mistake that many people who are new to the Internet make is that they write content that is not really all that great. Even though they may be able to pull people to their website in order to look at what they have written, very few of them ever return and many of them click away before they even finish what is written in the first place. This can make it very difficult for you to get repeat traffic and even more difficult for you to make consistent sales.

Behavior: Nothing Says ‘Focus’ Like Memory of Love

In a new study, people shown images of attractive men and women paid less attention to them if they had just been reminded about the person they loved.

For the study, the researchers looked at more than 100 college students who said they were in committed relationships.

One group was asked to write short essays about “a time in which they experienced strong feelings of love for their current partner.” The other volunteers were asked to write about a time when they were extremely happy.

When attractive faces of the opposite sex appeared, the students were slower to identify the shapes. But those who had written about their loved ones were less distracted.

Long-term relationships, the researchers said, offer benefits for reproduction, in part because both parents can play a role in rearing the children.

David Crystal’s Txtng: the Gr8 Db8 (Oxford) makes two general points: that the language of texting is hardly as deviant as people think, and that texting actually makes young people better communicators, not worse.

. . . in one British experiment last year, children who texted — and who wielded plenty of abbreviations—scored higher on reading and vocabulary tests. In fact, the more adept they were at abbreviating, the better they did in spelling and writing. Far from being a means to getting around literacy, texting seems to give literacy a boost. The effect is similar to what happens when parents yak away to infants or read to toddlers: the more exposure children get to language, by whatever means, the more verbally skilled they become. “Before you can write abbreviated forms effectively and play with them, you need to have a sense of how the sounds of your language relate to the letters,” says Crystal.

Record a list of undeveloped ideas. For example, blog post titles that come to mind.
Add subtopic nodes to general idea nodes when you think of them.
Accumulate sentence fragments attached to subtopic nodes as they come to mind.
Add URL references attached to map nodes so that you can click on them and view web pages in a browser.
Explore variations in article discussion flow by recording differing viewpoints. If one "speaks" to you more strongly, go with that.

JASMINE TEA HOUSE

Great casual take-out

Few San Francisco locals have been to the Bernal Heights district. It is serviced by limited bus lines and located on the southern edge of Mission Valley. The Jasmine Tea House is nestled in this quaint, old-fashioned town. It serves everything from fried chicken wings, General Tsou's chicken and Hunan salmon to delicious teas and drinks. It is a popular place takeout place. And in-restaurant dining is a humble but tasty experience. The ambience isn't anything to write home about. But the reasonable prices and varied menu are impressive. Their vegetarian offerings like Kung Pao and sesame "chicken" are hailed as the best fake poultry in SF. If you're looking for some cheap but yummy food and not a stickler for presentation, check out the Jasmine Teahouse.

Is this really necessary? All they have to do is wait for Honda to finally lose patience with Michelin--the 'Blade that won the 8 Hour was on Bridgestones--and we'll have a single-tyre supplier by default without having to write any rules.

clipper's remarks: Learning and knowledge are cornerstones for society and organizations. Knowing Knowledge is an exploration of the change impacting both learning and knowledge, and recommends changes required in order to align corporations and educational institutions with developing trends.

Clip Source: www.knowingknowledge.com

Knowing Knowledge was developed in a non-traditional process. Instead of an extensive writing/editing/publishing process (often in excess of 18 months), I adopted a democratic, end-user controlled process. It seems a bit silly to write a book on how the context and characteristics of knowledge are changing, and then subject it to the slow, plodding process of traditional publishing. The stages of traditional publishing are valuable (peer review, editorial review, typesetting, etc.). The challenge is the pace at which a book moves through these stages. In a world where knowledge is continually being updated and rewritten, many books risk obsolescence by the date of publication.

Knowing Knowledge is available for purchase from Lulu or Amazon.

Call to end animal pain research...

Using animals to research pain has "limited value" and should be replaced by newer technologies, argues a panel of medical experts from across England.

Animal tests can only simulate some aspects of chronic pain and are too simplistic, their report says.

With newer brain-imaging techniques, more studies could be done in humans, they write in the journal Neuroimage.

It is critical that these often simplistic experiments are replaced with more advanced techniques that don't involve inflicting animal suffering

Ministers said at present "licensed animal use remains essential to develop improved healthcare technologies".

There are few effective and safe treatments for chronic pain, such as that suffered by people with osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia, the researchers from London, Manchester, Liverpool and Oxford say.

"New and highly sophisticated brain-imaging technology is providing vital insights that animal research has failed to produce.
