...first study to associate meal timing with degree of weight gain, sleep scientists at Northwestern University compared two groups of mice, each placed on opposite feeding schedules for a six-week period. Both groups were fed the same high-fat food, and both had the same amount of daily physical activity. The only difference: one group was fed during its normal 12-hour waking period, while the other rodents where fed while they should have been asleep. By the end of the study period, the latter group had gained more than twice as much weight as the mice that...

...aesthetic of his past work is still noticeable, the increased presence of electric guitar allows the structure of each track to catch hold. Filtered through a resonating old gramophone-type effect, the guitar acts sort of like sun glare, transfiguring the simple chord progressions and also making them perfect sleep music. “Lovers Carvings,” in particular, features ideally lustrous guitar work that gets along well with a late afternoon outdoor nap. Wilkinson’s real skill, though, is crafting the faultless head nod tracks that fill up the rest of the album. Through meticulously...
