This is part 4 of 12 in the series on weight management for people with spinal-cord impairments (SCI). This months focus is on setting personal goals. Goals give you purpose and direction and keep you on track to better health. You probably had a “goal weight” in mind when you started a weight-loss program. It is important to remember that losing weight too quickly puts you at risk for health problems such as gall stones, electrolyte imbalance, and lean-muscle loss. In fact, any weight loss can improve health for people who are obese. It is better to maintain a moderate weight loss over a prolonged period than to regain from a marked weight loss. A person who is obese and weighs 250 pounds might lose as much as 5 pounds in a week, which is about 2%. Someone who is overweight and weighs 200 pounds might lose as much as 2 pounds in one week, which is about 1%. The rate at which you lose weight declines over time because your body metabolism slows down with weight loss. Research shows that in a well-designed weight-loss program, it is generally achievable to lose weight by about 10% in six months. If this initial target is achieved, fuller weight loss can be considered. Diet and physical activity usually need to be revised in six months to continue to lose weight.

TEXT: Although many of the recent reports on school reform assert the value of learning to read and write, they fail to mention literature as important to achieving quality education. Discussing trends and issues in the profession, the NCTE Commission on Literature (Suhor and Spooner, 1985) notes that reform proposals, in addition, call for little emphasis on preparation for teaching literature. This fact, along with an emphasis on teaching reading comprehension rather than on responses to literature, suggests a general belief that literature is relatively inconsequential or that no problems are involved in its teaching. The following is a brief account of issues surrounding the teaching of literature in high schools today. HIGH SCHOOL READING INTERESTS TODAY–WHAT ARE THEY? Although it is impossible to generalize from the results of limited surveys of reading interests, survey results do provide interesting information. McLeod and Oehlers (1983) study of student preferences among selected traditional and young adult novels reveals that adolescents consistently choose junior or more contemporary novels over traditional novels. Grimmes (1983) survey of the reading interests of 1,650 senior high school students in Nebraska indicates that students show a strong interest in recent popular horror fiction, such as THE SHINING, FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC, and JAWS. These works often have film corollaries. But other choices include works often considered standard: ANIMAL FARM, LORD OF THE FLIES, THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN, and TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. Added to this list of standards are those noted by McLeod (1983) as paperback “classics” that are perennial best-sellers–such works as THE LITTLE PRINCE, 1984, EAST OF EDEN, THE GREAT GATSBY, A SEPARATE PEACE, GONE WITH THE WIND, WALDEN, and PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Thomason (1983) surveyed 236 high school sophomores and found that (1) young adults do read for pleasure but find other pastimes more enjoyable; (2) students find reading more appealing if they can choose their own material; (3) high school students do not enjoy being read to by teachers; (4) required reading does not turn teenagers against reading; and (5) sophomore boys like to read science fiction, adventure, mystery, sports, and short stories, while sophomore girls like to read romances, mystery, and adventure. Among the issues educators should consider is whether a literature curriculum can be based upon such findings.

Think comfort, flexibility, and appearance, and youre on the right track. When it comes to office furniture, few items are more important than a comfortable office chair. Studies have shown that the chairs used by office professionals affect both productivity and stress levels. But what makes an office chair ideal? Heres a look at the features to consider in selecting the perfect chair. “Look for a chair that is appropriate for the individual using the chair and for the tasks that person will be performing,” says Jen Scrivner, general manager of G2 Office Furniture Market in Phoenix. “If the person using the chair will be sitting for long periods of time, the chair should be highly adjustable. Highly adjustable chairs will comfortably accommodate a variety of sitting postures including reclining, leaning forward, and sitting upright.” Moreover, the worker should be able to adjust his chair easily. If the user has to adjust two knobs and six levers to get comfortable, chances are he wont use the adjustments at all or wont use them properly. In that case, the user wont be comfortable no matter how “ergonomic” the chair is.

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–July 23, 1998–SFX Entertainment, Inc.(NASDAQ: SFXE) and The Marquee Group (AMEX: MRT) today jointly announced that SFX has agreed to acquire Marquee in a stock merger transaction valued at approximately $100 million. The Marquee Group provides integrated event management, television production, marketing, talent representation and consulting services in the sports, news and entertainment industries. It is expected that senior management of Marquee will enter into new employment contracts with SFX. For each share of Marquee common stock, Marquee shareholders will receive $6.00 of SFX Entertainment Class A stock, subject to adjustment. For this purpose, SFX stock will be valued at the average closing price for the fifteen consecutive trading days ending five days prior to the mergers effective date. In the event that the SFX average price exceeds $57.50, the exchange ratio will be adjusted ratably to provide incremental value to a maximum of $6.30 per Marquee share. The transaction has received the approval of both the SFX and Marquee Boards of Directors and the independent committee of the Marquee Board which was created to evaluate any such transaction. A meeting of Marquee shareholders will be called to vote on the transaction as soon as practicable. The closing of the transaction will be subject to several conditions, including shareholder approval, expiration of the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period, and the consummation by Marquee of certain anticipated transactions. It is expected that the merger will be consummated in 1998. Commenting on the transaction, Robert F. X. Sillerman, Executive Chairman of SFX Entertainment, Inc., said, “We are very pleased to announce this important strategic acquisition. We began our entry into the sports arena with our acquiring David Falks FAME organization, which we completed less than a month ago. The addition of Marquee now provides us with a full complement of sports marketing services. Marquee has incredible breadth in its involvement across diverse sports including tennis, hockey, basketball, baseball, soccer, golf, football and horse racing; and it has an integrated approach to adding many elements of value for its clients through event management, promotion, production, consulting, naming rights, and talent representation. The well-established marketing and promotional capabilities demonstrated by all of these activities will be the perfect addition to the ever-expanding SFX product line of live entertainment events, and we will be able to access a wider variety of corporate clients who already have shown their commitment to the value of promotion in the setting of live event presentation. We have spoken before about the diminishing boundary between sports and entertainment, and we expect to be both drivers and beneficiaries of this rapidly evolving process as we link the tremendous power of these two enterprises.” Robert M. Gutkowski, Marquees President and Chief Executive Officer, added, “This is a great development for the future of The Marquee Group. We have already made substantial progress in building a fully integrated sports marketing company, and we expect that this process of growth, both domestically and internationally, will now be accelerated and enhanced by our combination with SFX. Its resources will provide us with the capacity to take advantage of many additional opportunities which we have already identified to grow our business, and its extensive marketing activities will further inform and improve our own efforts on behalf of our clients and enhance our product line of promotional vehicles. We already have significant interest in the live entertainment field, and fully understand the similarities and combined strengths of the sports and live entertainment businesses. We look forward to a prosperous future together.” SFX Entertainment is a leading promoter, producer and venue operator for live entertainment events. It owns and/or operates the largest network of venues in the country used principally for music concerts and other live entertainment events. Upon completion of all pending acquisitions, it will have 44 venues either directly owned or operated under lease or exclusive booking arrangements in 22 of the top 50 markets, including 11 amphitheaters in 7 of the top 10 markets. Through its large number of venues, its strong market presence and the long operating histories of the businesses it has acquired, SFX operates an integrated franchise that promotes and produces a broad variety of live entertainment events locally, regionally and nationally. Pro forma for all completed and pending acquisitions, during 1997, approximately 27 million people attended 9,600 events promoted and/or produced by SFX, including approximately 4,200 music concerts, 4,900 theatrical shows and over 190 specialized motor sports events.

Ever wonder why were all so hung up on beauty–why its important to both men and women, no matter our race or place in the world, and why people across different cultures have similar ideals? “There are evolutionary roots to beauty,” explains psychologist Nancy Etcoff, a faculty member at Harvard Medical School and author of Survival of the Prettiest: The Science of Beauty. “Essentially, beauty is a biological advertisement of health.” In other words, people are attracted to visible signs of good health like clear skin, shiny hair and rosy cheeks because these were the clues our ancestors used to determine whether someone would make a good mate. These days, the natural signs of beauty are easily enhanced. The perfect-hued lipstick and blush, for example, impart a healthy glow, and the right moisturizers can keep your complexion soft. Improving on natures gifts is anything but vanity; Etcoff explains that beautifying yourself is simply another form of self-care. “More and more, people are viewing their health and their looks as being united. Its not simply putting on makeup or getting your hair done–its taking care of yourself and your body.” All the more reason to care for your skins specific needs, When you find a makeup look thats just right for your age, attitude and complexion, the beauty/health connection is confirmed. Here, three experts–makeup artists Sue Devitt, Bobbi Brown and Carol Shaw–offer advice on creating a look thats right for you. Though its impossible to hold back the clock forever, the common beauty goal for women in their late 20s: and early 30s is stalling time for another few years–and with the right makeup, enhancing the glow that already exists, explains Sue Devitt. THE BASICS Skin thats properly cared for is still in good condition now–and a sheer foundation (like the shimmering Shiseido
NEW YORK, N.Y. — Beautiful Forever, a New York-based medical spa business development company, announced today that its newest project, the medical spa at Miamis Four Season Hotel Towers, exceeded its first month projections - demonstrating that consumers are embracing medical spas with increased enthusiasm. Beautiful Forever helped launch The MIAMI Institute for Age Management Intervention, an advanced surgery center and medical spa dedicated to enhancing personal appearance, health and well being, last month. Julio F. Gallo, M.D., FACS, co-founder, The MIAMI Institute for Age Management Intervention, says, “We are heartened by the outpouring of interest in our new medical spa. Beautiful Forevers research and business development counseling was pivotal to our launch, and no doubt to the huge success we are already experiencing after just opening our doors last month.” Adds Dr. Gallo, “Cheryl has an amazing ability to combine business knowledge, marketing expertise and operational know-how with other aspects of medical and aesthetic treatments. She seems to know what will be hot before it is. She has been an invaluable asset in setting up the aesthetic treatments and office structure of our new comprehensive medical spa and cosmetic surgery center.” Cheryl Whitman, CEO, Beautiful Forever, says, “The medical spa business is an exciting trend, quickly gaining traction across the country. Consumers want more than they can get at the traditional day spa. They want a one-stop beauty destination where they can receive pampering as well as some on trend cosmetic and aesthetic procedures.” Adds Whitman, “Todays increasingly competitive work environment, coupled with the high concentration of baby boomers all vying for the same jobs, makes looking good and feeling good as important as the daily ritual of brushing our teeth. The medical spa business is growing in direct proportion to the needs of the discerning consumer.”

Leading diet and weight loss social network
fatsecret.com today released its
inaugural Diet Year in Review. To start, the review examined the most
popular diets for 2007 which this year were, in order, the South Beach
Diet, Weight Watchers, Atkins and the Fat Smash Diet. In terms of weight
loss results for these popular diets, the Fat Smash Diet actually led the
pack with people losing on average 1.02 lbs a week, compared to 0.73 lbs
for the South Beach Diet, 0.65 lbs for Weight Watchers and 0.63 lbs for
Atkins.
fatsecret founder Rodney Moses said: “While its really interesting that
some of the dieting powerhouses like the South Beach Diet and Weight
Watchers continue to be popular, there is a trend emerging in favor of
weight loss programs endorsed by celebrities or those popularized on
reality TV shows such as the Fat Smash Diet, which featured on VH1s
Celebrity Fit Club.”
Looking at weight loss performance across all popular diets, the Fat Smash
Diet was the leader, followed by (on an average weekly basis) the Sonoma
Diet (0.94 lbs), Abs Diet (0.92 lbs) and the GI Diet (0.79 lbs). Though
the average weight loss for people following a popular diet was 0.72 lbs a
week, those following their own personal diet program achieved an average
weight loss of 0.89 lbs. “The out-performance by people doing their own
diet is surprising and highlights that determination and support play a big
part in getting results,” said Moses.
Another interesting review finding was the magnitude of the benefit from
complying with your diet closely compared to just following it reasonably.
Those who reported that they were sticking to their diet to the letter
achieved a rate of weight loss 1.5 times those who just followed it
reasonably. The perfect dieters lost an average of 1.87 lbs a week versus
the OK dieters who lost 1.25 lbs, highlighting the enormous advantage of
being disciplined in your diet approach and management.
When considering the weight loss battle of the sexes, it was the men who
shone through. Male dieters lost on average 1.03 lbs a week, versus women
who lost 0.78 lbs. In terms of diet performance by age group, there was
some support for the commonly held view that metabolism slows with age.
Women aged under 29 lost 0.83 lbs a week and the rate of weight loss
declined progressively in each subsequent 10 year age range, although the
drop off in the rate was not as drastic as one might have expected, with
women aged over 60 still losing 0.73 lbs a week. For men on the other
hand, there was only modest correlation between age and the rate of weight
loss.

The Internet is now used at home by 68% of UK adults — a penetration
rate that continues to climb several percentage points each year
(although some signs of market saturation are appearing). The fact that
68% of those adults who use the Internet go online at least once a day
shows how quickly the World Wide Web has become part of everyday life in
the typical UK household. This first edition of UK Internet Market
focuses on consumer, rather than business, use of the Internet; among
those adults who use the Internet, 93% do so at home, whereas only 32%
do so in the workplace.
Although the concept of an Internet originated in the 1960s and reached
mass-market status in the 1990s, the 2000s have brought significant
improvements in the Internet experience for the consumer: fast broadband
connections, interactive Web 2.0 technologies, and remote access using
portable computerised devices (e.g. mobile phones).
E-mail is used by 87% of those with domestic Internet access, but
communicating through websites — particularly social networking
websites such as Facebook and MySpace — has become very popular. The
rise of social networking in the 2000s has been remarkable, leading to
the acquisition — at a high cost — of several leading websites by global
media giants.
