RapidFire: Cleaning up my Bookmarks
by
It’s been quite a while since I’ve:
cleaned out my bookmarked articles and sites and did a speed-link for you.
So, since the weekend looms, I’ve tons of work to be done, and my daughter is actually napping without being pushed in a stroller as a prerequisite (and I’d like to max out productivity, while I’ve the time!), I give you the following sites to check out:
- CBC News published an article on a judge’s recent ruling of New York City fast food restaurants that do not have to show calorie contents on their menus. To be honest, I’d not even been aware of this rule in NY or any of the other three cities and 14 states that have made moves to bring such legislation into play. It’s a good thought, since research has shown that when made aware of the content of their fast foods, diners will choose the calorie-laden fare about a third of the time.
- PsychPort reported that according to the results of a Norwegian study, pregnancy can open up possible binge eating behaviours.
- For the most part, unrelated to eating disorders, the Government of England will be providing mothers-to-be with a benefit to allow for healthy eating during pregnancy. This £200 one-time payment at 29-weeks gestation may allow low-income mothers to eat better - but what’s to help that during the early gestational months?
- During Mew York’s Fashion week, the girls at Jezebel handed out some rather appropriate and scandalous goody bags.
- Results of the first-ever Latino-focused eating disorder study were published recently, showing binge eating to be of high concern.
- Diet Blog dismisses the new diet book, 21 Pounds in 21 Days: The Martha’s Vineyard Diet Detox
