No government shutdown battle before Election Day

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced Tuesday that he has reached an agreement with the White House and Republican leaders in the House to ensure there is no government shutdown battle before Election Day in November.

The Nevada Democrat said that the parties have agreed to a six-month continuation of government funding.

"This agreement reached between the Senate, the House and the White House provides stability for the coming months, when we will have to resolve critical issues that directly affect middle class families," Reid said in a statement. "The funding levels in the six-month CR will correspond to the top-line funding level of $1.047 trillion. I hope that we can face the challenges ahead in the same spirit of compromise."

House Speaker John Boehner, Republican of Ohio, confirmed the agreement in a statement.

"During the August district work period, committee members and their staff will write legislation that can be passed by the House and Senate in September and sent to President Obama to be signed into law," Boehner said.

Congress will vote on the package in September, after the members return from summer recess.

Doris Neve celebrated becoming a centenarian at Seabrook Court in Clover Hill Road, Bowthorpe, and was also joined by Lord Mayor Ralph Gayton and his wife Brenda for the celebration.

The mother of seven, who has 11 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, was rather overwhelmed by the attention but still proudly showing off her card of congratulations from the Queen.

Mrs Neve?s daughter, Margaret Cornford, who lives off Ber Street in Norwich, said: ?It?s been great. She always says she doesn?t want a lot of fuss but I think she enjoys it really.?

Mrs Cornford explained that her mother and father, Walter, had married at Christ Church in Old Catton in 1932 but that Mr Neve had passed away in 1965.

Mrs Neve left school at 14 and went to work at Cooper?s sweet factory, which was opposite her family home in King Street and later became Read?s flour mill, starting off putting the eyes on sugar mice with a stick dipped in black colouring before going on to do several different jobs in the factory.

She also worked at Daniel?s Nursery, now Nottcutts, in Daniels Road, which gave her a lifelong love of gardening and she still does as much as she can.

Mrs Cornford said her mother still knits and reads, with Mills and Boon Regency novels her favourite books, although her eyesight is not so good now.

She has only been ill in hospital twice in her life ? both in the last year through a broken hip and a chest infection ? and despite having smoked since she was 16, very seldom sees her doctor.

Lord Mayor Ralph Gayton said: ?It?s quite an occasion when someone reaches their centenary and for Doris to still have such a good memory about things is great. I think she?s a wonderful lady.?

Can Carb Refeeds Boost Stalled Weight Loss? | Mark's Daily Apple

sweetpotatoes2 1Sometimes, weight loss slows. Sometimes, what worked amazingly well before, stops working quite the same. Although this can be scary, frustrating, annoying, or all of the above when progress slows, stops, or requires new input to continue like it was is ultimately okay, because we are an adaptive species.?We can change things up, shift stuff around. Physiological processes (among which weight loss and metabolism can certainly be counted) are never linear ? that?s partly what makes all this stuff so endlessly engaging.

Today, I revisit a strategy for overcoming these lulls in weight loss induced by low carb: carb (re)feeds. They seem counterintuitive, sort of, especially if you?ve had success restricting carbs, but hold you opinions until you read on. I think you?ll find it enlightening.

Dear Mark: Your blog is a treasure trove of valuable information. Thank you for keeping this resource available to us!

This is a question that I think many of your readers would appreciate seeing addressed in a post. [Background: I've been studying (and trying, periodically) various low carb regimens for many years, with varying degrees of success. I'm looking to metabolize off about 30-40 pounds of excess fat, build lean muscle and optimize my health and fitness.]

My question is, what do you think of the increasingly common recommendation (from various diet and fitness gurus) to ?spike? calories and carbs one day per week, in order to keep the body from down-regulating certain mechanisms too much due to continued low carbohydrate intake? The theory is that a once-per-week carb/calorie spike gives the metabolism a boost, and keeps weight loss going at a better rate than simply sticking to the low carb regimen seven days per week.

I?m wondering if this recommendation for one ?free day? per week is helpful or harmful to the objective of significantly reducing excess body fat over a period of a few months, and staying lean for life. I don?t mean a ?be a fool and eat garbage? day, but an honest ?spike the carbs and calories with healthy foods? day. What do you think: Would this be a weight loss booster overall, or just a setback on the road to burning excess fat and getting to an optimally lean body composition?

Thanks, Mark! I (and I?m sure your other readers) will value your opinion on this.

Dee

I?m happy to help. Thanks for the kind words.

Short answer: Yes, I think there is something to the lowish-carber?s occasional carb and calorie fest. Its relevance to a given individual depends on that person?s metabolic situation, of course, but I wouldn?t dismiss it out of hand. Check out my previous posts on leptin and?carb refeeds and weight loss to get an idea.

Longer answer: If you?re eating low-carb and low-calorie (which low-carb tends to promote on account of its inherent satiety) and the weight has stopped dropping, you may be low in leptin. Why does leptin matter, and what do calories and carbs have to do with it?

Leptin is a hormone that fulfills two primary roles, as far as metabolism and weight loss go ? it increases (or lowers) energy expenditure, depending on perceived energy availability, and it inhibits appetite. Both actions actually happen in the brain, but it?s leptin that gives the brain the message. If perceived energy availability is ?low,? energy expenditure drops and appetite increases. If perceived energy availability is ?high,? energy expenditure increases and appetite drops. That?s a quick and dirty (and incomplete) overview, but it serves our purposes for today?s discussion.

How does the body ?perceive? energy availability?

Body fat is, quite literally, stored energy. It?s also an endocrine organ that secretes leptin, the amount of which in circulation is directly proportional to the amount of adipose tissue on your body. So, the leaner you get, the less body fat (and less stored energy) you have available to drive leptin secretion. Even if you?re not as lean as you?d prefer to be, your lower body fat levels are low enough that the brain isn?t getting the ?high energy availability? message from leptin.

Insulin is another indicator of energy availability. Sure enough, insulin increases leptin secretion in fat cells. As far as the body?s concerned, if insulin is present in significant amounts, food has just been eaten, which means food is probably available in the environment. If food is readily available, the body doesn?t need to cram as much food in, nor does it have to conserve energy. It can do things that aren?t essential to immediate survival, like play a game, have sex, go explore, or work out, because there?s plenty of energy available. Leptin goes up, reducing appetite and increasing expenditure. Problems arise with leptin resistance, of course, when your insulin is constantly elevated, but I?ll get to that later.

Carbohydrate content of the diet, perhaps independently of the increase in insulin, also affects leptin levels. Protein also increases leptin, and fat seems not to, but carbohydrates have the largest effect.

Overall calorie content of the diet is an indicator of energy availability. Studies show that calorie restriction causes the body to lower serum leptin levels in order to protect against further weight loss, and that supplementary leptin kickstarts weight loss all over again.

Ultimately, then, leptin is how the body senses both incoming and stored energy. It goes up in response to food eaten, as well as food stored. And since day-to-day survival of an organism is largely about energy availability, the presence or absence of leptin can make life pretty awesome or pretty awful. This doesn?t just impact weight loss or gain; it impacts your enjoyment of life. Low leptin? You might not feel like taking that walk with your friend. You probably won?t want to work out. Your libido might suffer. You might not feel like doing much of anything except sit around.

Can you see why lagging leptin might be an issue in stalled weight loss during a diet? You?re dropping calories (an indicator of reduced energy availability), dropping body fat (an indicator of reduced energy availability), and, especially if you?re low-carb, you?re dropping insulin and carbs (an indicator of reduced energy availability). All these things tell the body to make less leptin, and less leptin means higher appetite (so you eat more) and lower energy expenditure (so you burn less fat and don?t feel like doing much of anything).

How Should You Do It?

As I mentioned in the refeed post, keep the fat content of your meals down when doing a carb feed ? about 50 grams for the day. Why? For one, fat doesn?t have as much an effect on leptin as carbs or protein do, and two, since triglycerides have been shown to prevent leptin from crossing the blood-brain barrier (into the brain where leptin does its work), the increased postprandial triglycerides (which are a normal, temporary, physiological consequence of eating fat and different from elevated fasting triglycerides) may reduce the effectiveness of leptin.

The greater you normally restrict carbs, the more you eat on your refeed. If you?re hanging out in the 100-150 gram range, you probably won?t need much ? if any ? of a boost in carbs. If you?re below 100 grams, I?d do 250 grams or so. If very low carb (below 50 grams), shoot for 300-350.

Do your refeed on a training day. Lift/sprint/run/hike/play big and, then, eat big. Your insulin sensitivity?and?leptin sensitivity will be high, your glycogen will be depleted, and you will basically be set up to store/burn the carbs and muscle energy rather than store it as fat. Leptin will increase regardless if you train or not, but doing it on a training day will mitigate any metabolic fallout.

Don?t use this as an excuse for stuffing your face with garbage. I mean, I suppose you could truly turn it into a cheat day and eat a couple pizzas, a gallon of ice cream, and a platter of crispy oxidized soybean oil-infused whatevers, but you?ll have better results with potatoes and yams (or even rice) and animals.

Who Shouldn?t Do It?

A big carb feeding isn?t right for everyone. I would say that for the severely overweight-to-obese, you should not be messing around with carb feeds. It?s not that they?ll wreak irreparable amounts of damage on your metabolism or anything; they just won?t be very helpful. See, the obese tend to be insulin-resistant (PDF). They have tons of leptin in circulation, far more than lean individuals, but?it cannot do its intended job. Instead of telling the muscles to burn more fat for energy and telling the brain to quell the appetite, leptin?s message in the obese is muffled, stifled, hamstrung. It can?t get through. Lack of leptin is not the problem, as the considerable amounts of adipose tissue are doing a fine enough job manufacturing the stuff. Sensitivity to leptin in the brain and periphery is the problem.?Thus, adding more leptin to the bunch via dietary manipulation won?t help, and it may even compound the problem. Improving leptin sensitivity is the real issue here, and a lowish-carb Primal eating and general lifestyle plan?(with adequate sleep, smart training, and plenty of stress mitigation) is the best way to do that.

Who Should Do It?

Leptin is most effective in the lean, moderately lean, and somewhat chubby (yes, those are absolutely technical terms). Men with six-packs, four-packs, two-packs, and men and women with a light layer of subcutaneous blubber covering everything up tend (a la those hunter-gatherers who aren?t exactly ?ripped,? but definitely not unhealthy) to be essentially leptin-sensitive. In these individuals,?leptin acutely boosts skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation.

Those with ?stubborn? body fat, those on an extended stall, or the otherwise lean who can?t quite seem to get the last dozen pounds to disappear are prime candidates for a big refeed. They?re not so overweight that leptin resistance is likely, so they?ll benefit from a general increase in leptin. They?re fairly lean, so circulating leptin is lower.

Anyone who?s ?feeling off? from low-carb Primal, despite their best efforts. Say you?ve given the low-carb flu a chance to pass over, you?ve addressed your sleep and stress, you?re not trying to train like a pro athlete, and you?re still feeling run down and unable to lose weight? Throw in a big carb feed.

What about you guys? Have you experimented with carb refeeding, and if so, how did it impact your weight loss efforts?

Thanks for reading!

Wisconsin's Sand Boom Brings Jobs, Prosperity

Leader-Telegram -- "A new industry continues to rise ? quite literally ? from the ground in west-central Wisconsin.

Officials from 12 regional counties reported the area now has a total of 52 silica sand mines that are either operating or approved (see map above).

That's up 136 percent from 22 just a year ago and shows just how fast the sand storm is sweeping across west-central Wisconsin, which is home to plentiful deposits of a variety of sand prized in the rapidly growing energy extraction practice known as hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking." While some experts have been predicting a slowdown in the industry's dramatic rise from virtually nonexistent four years ago, county planners who deal with permits for the mines haven't noticed such a change.

"It's still a boom," said Kevin Lien, director of the Land Management Department in Trempealeau County, which leads the region with six operating mines, 10 more on the way and another five applications being considered next month.? Right behind are Barron and Chippewa counties, which both have eight operating or approved mines and two more that have been proposed.

"I don't know if it's peaking yet. We just received two more applications," said David Gifford, zoning administrator in Barron County, which had only one approved silica, or "frac," sand mine a year ago."

Clark County?s university campus lay still this week, with only a few final exams left in the summer term.

But Jane Lanigan is not expecting downtime real soon.

The Clark County researcher is involved in several national efforts to combat childhood obesity, and even made a splash in the international research community this spring. Her study on how to get kids to eat healthy and exercise produced an interview method that may soon be used to assess childhood-obesity programs nationwide.

Lanigan, who has taught at WSUV for 10 years, last year completed a three-year pilot project as its lead researcher. The project was called Encouraging Healthy Activity and Nutrition in Childcare Environments, or ENHANCE.

The project, which was a collaboration of several nonprofits, colleges and a K-12 agency, examined 43 child care and early-learning facilities in Clark County. It was paid for by the Northwest Health Foundation, a Portland nonprofit.

?We were aware that the obesity problem has become quite acute throughout Washington,? Lanigan said.

A lot of the then-current research focused on kids already in school. About one-third of all middle- and high-school-aged children in Washington are overweight or obese, according to federal health data.

Sometimes anger, frustration and bitterness in your relationship can cross the point of no return, and thus a once strong bond can be shattered beyond any repair. When this occurs both partners at are affected perhaps one more than another. What is important to realize that damage can be repaired before it is too late. Knowing these 5 ways to save your relationship is definitely helpful, and may mean saving a rocky relationship while it is still possible.

1. The first advice is that you can both accept that there are problems that need to be handled in your relationship. These problems and issues need to be bought into the open and discussed between both partners. Seek methods in how these problems can be identified; and addressed in ways that are mutually acceptable. Compromise has already saved millions of relationships and this must be openly discussed between partners when there is conflict.

2. It takes two partners to make an argument happen. Both partners in a relationship need complete communication and interaction. If communication stops, then the reasons must be investigated behind it. This means starting a conversation with your partner allowing them to open up so that you can analyze where the problem lies, and then take the right steps to repair the damage or rift.

This renewal is important to come from both partners and thus regular alone time in different places is necessary.

4. Each partner must communicate their feelings to the other. Healthy relationships need natural attraction. This comes through sharing and allowing each other to show their true feelings. Sometimes the reassurance of your partners feelings is vital to make you comfortable that the relationship is still on a solid footing.

5. Make an effort to find advice and counseling. Sometimes it is necessary to seek outside assistance from friends, families, and even a relationship therapist. In some cases it feels impossible to express and communicate your feelings to your partner. Different people can give you different angles on the problems you are facing in your relationships, and give you solutions to problems you may never have considered yourself. Sometimes expert and experienced advice can only be obtained from a relationship therapist.

S&P 500, Nasdaq fall on Apple's miss; Dow rises

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The S&P 500 fell for a fourth day and the Nasdaq dropped on Wednesday after a rare earnings stumble from Apple, while strong results from Boeing and Caterpillar lifted the Dow.

Apple Inc , the most valuable U.S. company by market capitalization, reported sales late on Tuesday that fell short of Wall Street's expectations as the European economy sagged and consumers held off buying iPhones before a new version expected in the autumn.

Shares fell 4.3 percent to $574.97. Without Apple's losses, the S&P would have ended higher.

The price-weighted Dow industrials managed gains thanks to Caterpillar and Boeing . Caterpillar rose 1.4 percent to $82.60 after its quarterly profit easily beat Wall Street's expectations.

The world's largest maker of construction machines also raised its 2012 forecast.

"Expectations have been very low and this is a huge positive for the market," said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Harris Private Bank in Chicago.

Hope that the Federal Reserve will act soon to provide more stimulus to the economy also supported stocks. A report in The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday said Fed officials may be moving closer to taking more steps to aid the flagging economy.

Because of those expectations "bank stocks are performing relatively well," said Thomas Villalta, portfolio manager for Jones Villalta Asset Management in Austin, Texas. The KBW bank index <.bkx> was up 0.5 percent.

The Dow Jones industrial average <.dji> rose 58.73 points, or 0.47 percent, at 12,676.05. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.spx> was down 0.42 point, or 0.03 percent, at 1,337.89. The Nasdaq Composite Index <.ixic> was down 8.75 points, or 0.31 percent, at 2,854.24.

Housing stocks ranked among the worst performers on data for June showed the biggest drop in U.S. single-family home sales in more than a year. The PHLX housing sector index <.hgx> tumbled 3 percent, pulled lower by a 3.7 percent drop in D.R. Horton shares to $17.98.

The S&P 500 once again tested its 50-day moving average around 1,332. The benchmark index broke through that level on Tuesday but rebounded above it after reports the Fed was likely to provide more stimulus.

Boeing also helped the Dow when it reported a larger-than-expected increase in second-quarter profit and raised its full-year earnings forecast. The company said rising airplane deliveries offset higher pension costs. Boeing's stock gained 2.8 percent to $74.03.

Sixty-three percent of S&P 500 companies have surpassed earnings expectations so far, just a touch above the 62 percent long-term average, Thomson Reuters data showed.

Ford Motor Co reported a better-than-expected second-quarter profit but roughly doubled its forecast for losses in Europe where a deepening economic crisis pushed the auto industry's sales to their lowest level in nearly 20 years. Ford shares edged down 1 percent to $8.97.

After the closing bell, shares of Internet company Zynga , a game publisher, dropped 37.6 percent to $3.17. The company cut its 2012 earnings outlook and reported results below expectations. Shares of Facebook , which relies on Zynga for some 15 percent of its revenue, fell 7.5 percent to $27.15.

Shares of Visa rose 1.1 percent to $123.58 in extended-hours trading after the credit card company reported an adjusted profit that topped Wall Street estimates and raised its full-year earnings forecast for the second time this year.

Volume was about 6.43 billion shares on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq and Amex, compared with the year-to-date daily average of 6.74 billion shares.

Advancers beat decliners on the NYSE by about 16 to 13 and on the Nasdaq by about 7 to 5.
