...accompanying editorial, authors Dr. Susan Gapstur and Dr. Seema Khan, point out the WHEL study's limitations. In particular, they question the accuracy of the self-reporting: given that both groups of women gained weight during the study, Gapstur and Khan say they must have underreported their caloric intake. Had the women reduced their total calories, they would have lost weight. The editorial authors also note that the high-vegetable group never quite reached the 15% mark for daily fat consumption...
...lifestyle. "If you look at current literature on the subject, it suggests that overall energy balance - not just diet - plays a role in cancer recurrence," Gapstur says. And researchers at the University of California, San Diego, who ran the WHEL Study, are already planning to study how exercise and weight loss impact cancer prevention, according to co-author Rock...
Like any other spacecraft, Dawn will have to be muscled off its launchpad by a conventional rocket burning conventional propellant. Once it climbs to near Earth space, however, everything will change. Of all the things that add weight to a spacecraft, fuel presents the most problems. The farther you're going, the more propellant you need, but every pound of it you add means more mass the engine must propel, which requires more fuel still, and on and on. A spacecraft like Dawn, which is designed not just to fly by its two targets but also to settle into orbit...
...compact 72-gal. (273 L) tank. A jolt of electricity energizes the gas, causing xenon ions to shoot out the back of the ship at 77,000 m.p.h. (124,000 km/h). A stream of charged atoms has somewhat less oomph than a burst of fire--less force than the weight of a single piece of paper, in fact--but over time it adds up. "It's acceleration with patience," says Rayman. "In the four days it takes to increase speed by 60 m.p.h., we'll use only 2 lbs. of propellant. If we keep thrusting, however, we can achieve extremely...
...hand of God today," he said, "is in every step of what happens with me and every human being that exists on this planet." Clinton shared the content of her prayer life with the audience: "You know, sometimes I say, Oh, Lord, why can't you help me lose weight?" she said to sympathetic laughter. "Sometimes, you know, it's praying for discernment, for wisdom, for strength, for courage...
