...Unsurprisingly, these stylish eco-warriors do not come cheap. They are exempt from road taxes and the central-London congestion charge, but at a base price of $109,000 for the Roadster and a target price of $240,000 for the Lightning, they may be made for the green among us but certainly not the mean - much cheaper, less-élite models will have to appear before the wider population can jump on the battery-powered bandwagon...

"The major outcome of this paper is the maintenance issue," Jakicic says. Once a patient hits her target weight, he says, it's imperative that she stick with her exercise and diet regimen to maintain her new weight...

Others needed more. But the keys to success, according to Jakicic, were embracing the weight-loss program fully, and finding...

I have learned to buy just enough supplies at Target to get me through the week, and I have given up all hope of exploring the Twin Cities at my leisure. Instead, we plan ahead: Trips to the lake are proposed a week in advance, dinner plans are decided by 2 p.m. each day. Living with 12 other college students...
