A group of scientists in the UK say they have a come up with a great way to encourage the public to cut back on excessive drinking – the only problem is that “the public” wants nothing to do with it. As you may know, the 20-ounce pint is embedded in British pub culture. But research, published in the journal PLOS Medicine, suggested that offering two-thirds of a pint as the largest size available could have a positive health impact nationwide. The idea was based on the idea that people tend to think in portions rather than portion sizes, as in grabbing ‘one beer’ or ‘one glass of wine’, rather than debating milliliters or ounces. And in a trial, beer sales fell 9.7% with the smaller beer sizes. But we don’t think the idea is going to stick: Of 1,700 pubs approached to take part in the study, only 12 agreed. And not only did sales tail off – so did earnings. Even the researchers agreed that while there is a potential health benefit to reducing standard beer sizes, neither pub owners nor politicians are likely to pursue the matter further.

New
research has found that taking breaks while exercising can help you
burn more calories. A team from University of Milan conducted a study
where they measured the oxygen and energy demands of test
participants who walked on a treadmill and used a stair climber.
Results showed that the body required more energy to warm up at the
start of each walk, and less when it was already in motion. The
study’s author compared the results to how a car “needs some fuel
to start the engine or get the car out of the garage.”

It recognizes an “individual who has enriched our culture through accomplishments in the motion picture industry.” In a statement, Maltin said that Jolie “makes bold choices, both as an actress and as a director”, and “sets the bar high in both disciplines and always comes through.” Her latest film, “Maria,” in which she plays opera singer Maria Callas, will debut on Netflix Dec. 11.
Sophia Bush is headed back to the small screen. The “One Tree Hill” star confirmed she’s joining the cast of “Grey’s Anatomy” in a cheeky Instagram video. In it, Bush adjusts her tank top and jeans in a trailer before covering the camera and flipping it around, and smiling as she reveals herself in a set of blue medical scrubs. She’ll appear in a recurring role as ‘Dr. Cass Beckman’, a trauma surgeon whose husband is also a physician at Grey Sloan. Bush will make her debut in the Nov. 7 episode.
SCOOP OF THE DAY: Brought to you by BetterCreditCards.com
Many Gen Z and Millennial couples are inviting their wedding guests to help them pay for a home, instead of giving a traditional gift. Wedding resource websites like The Knot and Zillow Home Loans report that 55% more couples are adding a “home fund” to their wedding registry this year than did in 2018. Couples are adding the once-controversial request to their wishlists with the hope that they will be able to start their new chapter as husband and wife – and as homeowners. A recent survey showed that nearly 87% of couples planned on adding a cash fund to their registry — with more than 37% planning to put the money toward a new home.

A baby born in the parking lot of a microbrewery was named after the business, which in turn created a special brew to honor the newborn. Aaron and Kyle Baker were on their way to hospital in Kalamazoo MI on their baby’s due date when they realized they wouldn’t make it in time. They called for an ambulance and pulled into the parking lot at One Well Brewing, which happens to be their favorite microbrewery, and baby Forrest Wells Baker was born moments later. To honor the occasion, and the baby’s brewery-inspired name, One Well Brewing came up with an orange blonde ale, which his parents were invited to help mix at the brewery. The beer, aptly named Special Delivery, will be tapped later this month. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/3zek2bzp
