...retain exclusive rights to her- or himself could do so by obtaining a waiver. Of course, those who cooperate with the system will also retain full rights to the publication of their work. By sharing those rights with Harvard, they sacrifice nothing; and they will have the collective weight of Harvard behind them if they resist a journal’s demand for exclusive rights. We have designed a legal memorandum called an author’s addendum to reinforce them in negotiations with commercial publishers. The implementation of the proposal would require an effort at consciousness-raising, but that...
...endurance,” Stanton said. “And not all of us are endurance athletes.” Fellow co-captain Molly Boyle arrived with the team at 2:30 pm, but had to wait until 11:15 to get her chance to compete in the weight throw. But all that aside, the women’s team mustered up an impressive cadre of individual performances. In the track events, junior Aishlinn O’Callaghan finished seventh in the 500 meter with a Harvard season-best time of 1:16.19. Freshman Kathryn Orchowski posted a time...
...similarly trained to anticipate lots of calories when they taste something sweet - in nature, sweet foods are usually loaded with calories. When an animal eats a saccharin-flavored food with no calories, however - disrupting the sweetness and calorie link - the animal tends to eat more and gain more weight, the new study shows. The study was even able to document at the physiological level that animals given artificial sweeteners responded differently to their food than those eating high-calorie sweetened foods. The sugar-fed rats, for example, showed the expected uptick in core body temperature at mealtime, corresponding to their...
...generalize based on animal results that the same phenomena would hold true in people, Swithers says, she notes that other human studies have already shown a similar effect. A University of Texas Health Science Center survey in 2005 found that people who drink diet soft drinks may actually gain weight; in that study, for every can of diet soda people consumed each day, there was a 41% increased risk of being overweight. So even though her findings were in animals, says Swithers, they could lead to a better understanding of how the human body responds to food, and explain...
...does that mean you should ditch the artificial sweeteners and welcome sugar back into your life? Not exactly. Excess sugar in the diet can lead to diabetes and heart disease, even independent of its effect on weight. But it's worth remembering that when it comes to counting calories, it's not just the ones you eat that you have to worry about. The calories you give up matter too, and they may very well reappear in that extra helping of pasta or dessert that your body demands. Your body may actually be keeping better count than...
