    Thanks,Dean,extremely interesting. My approach tends to be seasonal: in winter, when Seattle is too dark and rainy for much outdoor exercise, I favor the "hunker down" low calorie low activity mode, then as the days grow longer and the rain abates I walk 5-10 miles a day and increase calories accordingly, but always with a deficit. How do you deal with social situations like being invited to someone's house for dinner?

    That's an excellent article. Made me buy their book and fantasize about adopting a 3rd dog.

    Thanks, very interesting. I never hot brew tea for 5 minutes. I mostly drink green tea and never steep for more than 2 minutes. Also, how hot is hot? I aim for around 175F with green tea and 200F with black tea. I've been following these guidelines from my friendly neighborhood dealer, whose pointers may be geared more for flavor than nutrient content as over-brewed tea tends to be either bitter or astringent. When they serve pots of tea in their cafe they provide a little timer that tells you when to remove the basket, and if you ignore it they look askance. I'll ask him about polyphenols next time I go there.
