you know and that in that state it was an amazing some amazing studies he did those studies could probably could not be done today you know ethical reasons. but yeah but clearly there is a flip side you know you can learn you know in effect you know negative strategies just as well just as easily perhaps as as positive strategies so we have to really watch ourselves you know one one one approach that i take for it when i teach classes on happiness is a ask my students to keep track of what they do kind of keep it diary in a sense and then you can sort of catch yourself like when are you most unhappy during the day you know what are you doing and then try to do less of that one of the things that surprised me the most as a parent i have three adult children now was. i had always thought the temperament was kind of shorthand for personality of the moment but i've seen kids grow up and seen temperament that seem that was there virtually at birth and sometimes even you know kicking a lot in the womb carry all the way into the into their thirty's to what extent to temper you know how do you def

so, if you're studying human civilization, you should study the religions. secondly, of course, the study of religion makes a lot of challenges to people's assumption. western assumptions are challenged by the ones in the east or the south - the south of the world, africa and so on. african religions make a number of challenges to western ideas. now these challenges often deepen our understanding of our own cultures. the very fact that, let us say, buddhist ethics are little bit different from christian ethics, challenges us to go deeper into the nature of christian love, for example. [dr. simons:] often times students, faculty, the general public, confuse our disciplined religious studies with theology or the philosophical endeavors. what are some of differences or the unique aspects of religious studies? [professor smart:] the subjects where i am saying is i think is that we study the power or life of power of religion on the one hand. on the other hand the theologian is trying to promote the truth of what he has to say. of course, we're interested in trut

study. this is interesting. it is another community-based planning process looking at what kind of station you wanted for the bayshore session. we had redevelopment, high-speed rail plans; this was a chance for the community to weigh in an division they have for the area and help them form the larger regional discussions. by domains at the end of the story but it is a way to start the build community input and consensus. bi-county transportation study is very much related, working with jurisdictions and agencies across the county line in san mateo; we are just about done with this one. we have to do a little bit of tinkering to do with the loss of the redevelopment agency and other changes but we will come to you early in 2013 with recommendations. market street is further to all of you. we know that it needed to be fixed for a long time. the study resulted in a number of improvements that included and led to the bike -- an initial turn restrictions. we now have a much more significant effor

the take home of this study which is a very small study of 27 migraine sufferers published in a renownedournal of neurology they all say exercise and bright lights trigger migraines. when they were studied they found it didn't work. most of the time it wasn't what they said. it brings up a point. what is it about lights that triggers migraines. it may be going from a darkroom suddenly into the light. it may have something to do can suppress. we always look at these studies and see headlines in the media. migraines are not caused by what they said. the reality is this was a very small study and it's not proof. the take home here is it's a personalized thing. you have to talk to your physician. chocolate is one idea. hormones is another idea. not sleeping can cause high grains. stress can cause migraines. in food and cheese can cause it also nitrates. tirama neshg e a protein found in certain foods like aged cheese. >> not going to have cheese now. >> and red wine can cause migraines. >> depends on the person. >> it sounds like you have got to experiment. you have to try to take away diffe

another study on the lignans from seeds studied women who had breast cancer and they tracked the amount of lignans consumed over a 10-year period. you see, lignans are rich in flaxseeds, chia seeds, some other seeds, the women who ate the most lignans which was less than 1 milligram a day had a 71% decrease in breast cancer mortality over that 10-year period. now one teaspoon of flax or chia seeds have about 7 milligrams of lignans, and in the study less than 1 milligram decreased breast cancer deaths by over 70%. that's truly amazing. so here's my nutritarian prescription for you. number one-- do you eat some beans every day? you should. i want you to. check that off. it's important. do you eat least a cup of berries and two other fruits a day? are you having three fresh fruits a day? you got to check it off. it's one thing you have to do. it's part of the formula here. now that 1 ounce of raw nuts and seeds, i want an half an ounce from--i want at least a tablespoon of chia seeds or sesame seeds or flaxseeds or hemp seeds, i want at least a tablespoon of those seeds to get the lignans

but to be fair there is nothing like that in the actual study.ome people might look at this study and decide, oh, i am not going to have a kid now. but you can't blame that on the researchers. >> it is getting so much attention. the actual numbers seem so incon shaw qen shall. inconsequential. i won't concede that. but it seems like there is always this reason not to have kids and not to bother and don't bring a child into this world. it is over populated and all of this crap. >> you sold me. >> good. >> you imagine if the study came out and said the booming economy -- >> if are you going to have five, now is the year. >> if it said like the opposite of what this says. >> what is the opposite of having fewer kids? wait. >> no, i was actually going in a different direction, but it was hijacked. i had a different point to make. i was saying they would use any conclusion not to have kids. >> so freak-anomics says it was good for the crime rate. that was clearly refuted. he took apart how they got the wrong year. nobody talks about the reputation, bu

as someone who has covered health and fitness for years this study blows me away.deborah alfarone's reaction. >> reporter: it is a little much to take anita. this study was done by some very reputable people and published in the american journal, the sample size was 3 million people but before you go and order up three slices of cheese cake my sample size tonight was smaller 13 included a fitness con -- and included a fitness conscious crowd. >> who would have thought this, this and don't forget this, could maybe help you live longer? >> it does surprise me. i would imagine, the more fit you are, you know, the longer you would live. >> reporter: just in time for new years resolutions a new study says being over weight can help you reach a ripe old age. >> that is fan it'sic. >> reporter: the owner say -- fantastic. >> reporter: the owner says the study is fine by him. >> good news. come and get good burgers. >> reporter: this info may fly in the face of everything we know. at l.a. boxing in georgetown, sweating it out is a way of life, study or not. >> no, i would

participants from the beginning of the study in one thousand nine hundred five to the end of the study in two thousand and six and the study period concluded eleven thousand three hundred eleven study participants had been diagnosed with depression while the results of the study are revealing researchers note that they only found an association between consumption of sweetened drinks and developing depression it's still unknown whether people with the oppression are more prone to drink sugary drinks or if the drinking the sugary drinks might be what's causing the depression however previous studies have come up with similar results study in two thousand and eleven published in the archives of internal medicine also showed a relationship between caffeinated coffee consumption and decreased depression risk and a study conducted in australia suggested there may be a link between drinking soda daily and having an increased risk of psychological distress so throughout as stay healthy and happy it might be time to lay off the sugary drinks and go for a nice cuppa joe instead. crazy those swe

and a new study finds that homicides have actually increased in states that have an act of the stand your ground law this law give americans a license to kill will debate this smoking gun just ahead. it's tuesday january eighth eight pm here in washington d.c. you i'm liz of all in you're watching our team. well begin with the developing story accused whistleblower bradley manning is back in court this week the former army private accused of the biggest classified document breach in u.s. history among the slew of charges manning is facing is aiding the enemy and just moments ago the military judge presided over the case the judge agreed to take a hundred twelve days off manning's eventual sentence this is on grounds of manning was subjected to unlawful pretrial punishment today the big question debated can giving classified information to wiki leaks or the media in general be considered aiding terrorists prosecutors in this case say yes but the defense says that's not the case because the sensitive information isn't being handed over to al qaeda members directly from marti let produc

converse study two years ago. happy to provide you with that. but that's where that fee emanated from. >> co-chair kim: in terms of depending on the number of years obviously that fee reduces down to $4,000. i know there's concern about whether $4,000 per unit can mitigate the loss of rent control units. beyond the normal existing procedure that we have currently for -- to ensure that there's sort of a metered rate at which we lose -- basically lose rent controlled units. >> supervisor farrell: i challenge probably the premise of that comment but i will say that the amount of fee reduction was a balancing act -- and to the city attorney can speak to further detail about that. we have to match that with the nexus study but also there is at a certain point a breakage point where people will not be incentivized to go forward and pay a fee. if they are seniority base you have a greater chance of winning the lottery. if you have missed it for x number of years you will be much closer going forward based upon seniority

finally did the studies there issued a draft for. or found in fact they believe that hydraulic fracturing had contaminated the water there were synthetic chemicals in the water there that are used in drilling that are not naturally occurring and we come to find out after that study was released again the a.p. did an investigative report and found that the state leaders the governor of wyoming had exchanged eleven thousand e-mails with the e.p.a. and had forced them to delay the release of their findings to give the state agency and the industry time to respond to what they were going to find in their report this led to. a problem you know very prolonged additional studies being done by the e.p.a. there were hearings held in the house on on the methods used by e.p.a. for the study there was this tremendous backlash by the industry and just this week the e.p.a. again extended the draft study for public comment until september of this year so this is just continually dragged out so this is not the only instance that we've seen where pre

the study was done by psychiatrist harold urschel. of drug trials for government and drug companies. but we noticed that while testing prometa, dr. urschel's own addiction clinic was selling prometa among other treatments. this is the gentleman who's supposedly doing the independent research to see if it works. seems like a conflict. >> well, i assure you that there's no conflict. i can't speak to what goes on in his medical building. i have no idea. >> dr. urschel told us he didn't have a financial interest in his clinic's prometa sales, and he sees no conflict. but it's not the first time that prometa has hit questions on the fast track to market. remember the model program in tacoma drug court? it turns out that some of the top people running the program for the county, who were so enthusiastic, were also buying peizer stock. >> i'm john neiswender. i'm the chief financial officer of pierce county alliance. and, yes, i'm one of those ones who bought stock. >> pierce county commissioners didn't like the sound of that, and they didn'

impression that there was a traffic study. and it seems to me -- and i was curious to know who conducted that study because there was some comment that it wasn't independent. i'm not quite sure what's meant by that but if you could elaborate a little bit that would be helpful. >> like i mentioned we've been studying this for a year now but it was nine months in the planning process and we conducted traffic counts, and it was mta staff who collected traffic count data. we had an independent party help us collect some of the bike data, but we also collected bike data by ourselves. we collect our own speed surveys. and then our ma engineers built a traffic model, a simulation model, using industry accepted standards, the highway capacity manual, 2000 edition, collected by our staff, analyzed by traffic engineers and peer reviewed by another traffic license engineer and ther theres process with the planning department to further fine that to make sure we were capturing all aspects of the project. >> was that published? >> yes. tha

very important study for state government. because this category of drugs is a substantial expense for the medicaid program. >> what's the cost between haldol and the new drug that came out? >> it's a difference between haldol and a entire category, the a typical antisigh cotics. it's a many expense. that doesn't mean haldol is the right drug for every patient but what this study demonstrate said when you look at a large population, for a substantial number of patients, the older now available as a generic drug, is in fact more effective at controlling symptoms than the newer category of drugs. so it just speaks to the issue of first of all, the treatment needs to be at a lord to the individual and that if -- tailored -- we need to enter into the prescribing process with an open mind whether in fact this new drug offers any advantage whatsoever to our patients. >> the cost of the treatment will drop by as much as 80%. >> correct. >> and you get the same effect right? >> correct. >> that's really quite dramatic. in fact, it led

i studied your -- i am a new row scientist. i study your brain. what neuroscience might have to offer in terms of understanding individuals to buy a different personality disorders are problems or mental illness. your first client that you are studying is named brad. he has a normal iq, he has been divorced and remarried. he has no history of psychiatric illness. oddly, has worked as a correctional officer for a while. he has worked as a schoolteacher. 16 years ago, he hit his head and knocked himself unconscious. no kind of neurological events following that. for the last year, he has had some migraines. he started using pornography on the internet. he started soliciting sex from women working in massage parlors. he reports that he has a very high sex drive and conceals his behavior because he feels that it is wrong. there is a picture. [laughter] in 2010, he makes some subtle sexual advances to his stepdaughter. mom find out about this and brad is legally removed from the home and diagnosed as a pedophile. he is chemically castrated in treatment

melissa: that's what we're saying. >> the study is find and did analytical study but where is the shockve doing oil development sands 50 years. they found increased levels in the mud but no environmental impact. the levels are not higher than the urban area. so, it's a nice study. it may scare some people. it's something to look at maybe in the future, but there should be no shock about this at all. the same as urban environment. there is a big difference between the presence of an element or a chemical and its impact. both you and i could go out to a bar, have a shot of vodka each, measure it on us but the impact we're not drunk. so there's the difference. melissa: i have to say though, i spent a lot of time at oil installations all around the world, saudi deserts to south america, whatever, i have been up to the oil sands and that black does gets all over everything. it follows you whereve you go. you see trails of it into every restaurant, into every, i mean it really flies through the air and is everywhere. i couldn't help thinking when i was there, that i'm breathing this in. that

independent traffic study. it didn't -- it was discussed in about two pages of their declaration, saying it's categorically exempt. we've been asking for them to do independent studies on what -- and also the traffic study talks about level of service deck rements or increments but it doesn't say there's no study done whatsoever about the effect of the loss of that much parking. it's based on the opinion, or the experience of san francisco traffic planners. but the fact -- essentially, their argument is that when you remove parking, people either shift their mode of transportation, or they just decide to stay away altogether. well there's some statistics, i don't have them -- i don't have the exact numbers but i looked recently, the mta has these annual reports, and from about 2008 to 2011, the number of street parking spaces decreased by 12 or 13%, and the number of automobiles registered in san francisco decreased by about 1%. so that's a piece of evidence that would seem to indicate that the idea that, when

she cites two academic studies. unfortunately, i do not think she read the studies. part of what they did was quote from them. neither one of them supported her case. it is clear the authors were saying they could not find any benefit from the assault weapons ban. host: the quote in your piece is from two researchers who say we cannot clearly credit the man -- ban with the recent drop in gun violence. how did they come to that? guest: you have 50 states. we look at them overtime the assault weapons ban changed the law in states differently. some states already have the assault weapons ban. for the states where it made a difference, changed the policy, how did their crime rates change before and after the federal law relative to the states where it did not change what was already there? they found identical changes in crime. there have been other studies that have the reverse effect slightly. but no one has found a benefit from that in terms of publications. the two authors were originally hired under the clinton administration to evaluate the study. they did not find

good morning, marla. >> reporter: this traffic study is different from all of the other studies thateen previously because for the first time researchers tracked drivers unanimously using their cell phone gps. now, if you happen to drive northbound 101 in southeast san jose where we are this morning, you may have been one of those drivers. researchers -- the study was done by researchers at uc berkeley and m.i.t. it's one of the four most congested spots in the bay area during the morning commute. the other three hot spots include southbound 101 traffic through san rafael, westbound 580 traffic along the castro valley y and southbound commute through san ramon on 680. researchers tracked more than 350,000 drivers using their cell phone data to pinpoint these trouble spots. the study concludes that if just 1% of commuters from the specific outlying areas canceled their trip during the heart of rush hour, that would reduce the extra travel time for all other drivers by 14%, which turns out to save about eight minutes an hour. researchers say, sure, this information is valuable but exac

i would do a study on that. most of the animals that eat their kids -- >> if that true, bill, you wouldn't have been here. >> my mom was on a diet thankfully when i was born. it was weight watchers. thank you, jenny craig. because of you i am alive. >> ain't jenny craig and weight watchers two different companies? >> jenny craig prevents infant-cide. >> i just lost my glasses. have we killed this topic? >> jenny craig -- >> show a picture of jasper. >> so cute. >> you know the most disgusting thing about that picture -- >> it is so cute i got violent. >> you know what is gross about that picture? jasper is a cat. that's not so cute. it is disgusting. that's the worst cat i have seen in my life. >> it is a 14-year-old armenian boy with a skin condition. >> good for you for adopting such a creature. >>> from sweet to sag gee can pants that sink -- can pants that sink lead to the clink. they are telling youngsters to pull up their jeans or they will go to jail. take a look, fans of looking. >> so you think you look

studies.ning me, anna and tommy christopher who wrote a great article about this. tell us about those studies. >> thanks for having me, cenk. i saw that clip and thought what do those studies say. i looked at a bunch of them. the one they specifically cite on that show, they cite all the time, the effect of violent video games on the behavior of children, on aggressive behavior, what it really says is that the effects that they found are short-term and they're short-term aggressive behaviors but found that none of the research really specifies what aggressive behaviors are, that there were all kinds of flaws in the research, sal pells were too small. halfway through it says there were also six other things that are way more important when it comes to aggressive behavior, and one is access to guns. >> cenk: i love that. >> so they're citing -- >> cenk: let me quote that: >> they have this study and they're saying look away from the guns and then all of a sudden, there's a gun. i think it's pret

i studied how they diagrammed and described their work in their notebooks and how this

what to you make of the studies being cited here?> you know, i think when you compare something like video game violence to tobacco you are comparing apples to oranges. i am living proof and have been planning violent video game systems for years old. i have never done anything violent, and i'm sure there are millions of others that have not either. as far as these studies go, i will advise everyone to take over what they're worth because there are millions of members of the the play violent video games on a daily basis and if they truly are to blame would like to believe that we would be seeing a lot more incidents similar to send the puck. gerri: what did they say, money talks. let's look at retail sales. they are down december to december 10th 3 billion. maybe mom and dad started yanking the court on paying for some of this stuff, but is this a case where it is a big industry and you cannot fight back because there are so many companies involved, so powerful. is it a gerri willis, we are just ignoring the problems are? >> it is bo

fatalities every one of those studies were funded by taser international. of the independent studies not funded by the people profiting off these weapons, they found things like the 2009 ucsf study that the deaths more than doubles in the first year and the following years the number of shootings decrease but stayed above what it had been before tasers and this seems to be the trend, when tasers are introduced they are a new tool, it is exciting and get used a lot. and when that initial excitement levels out it is not decreasing fatalities. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. >> are there any other members of the public who would like to comment? in this hearing? and seeing, none, come forward we will close the public comment. we want to thank the members of the public for being here and taking part of in hearing and sharing their thoughts and concerns and their expertise as well. it is critical that we hear especially from folks who work in the neighborhood that probably have the highest incident of mental health crisis in san francisco where we would se

data for, 90%, no human health data at all and hundreds of these are in our bodies, we know from studies, so we need to pass comprehensive legislation, a couple of weeks ago, tony testified in front of the environment and public works committee on why we need to pass and get the safe cosmetics out there on the floor of that senate, he did a fantastic job and i stole this off the video which is archiving, you can watch it, and this act would call for quick action on the chemicals of greatest concern, would increase access to basic health and safety information on chemicals, would use the best science to assess safety, so not old science but new science, would seek to protect vulnerable populations like we talked about way back when, right, prenatally and in pregnancy, those ones that are maybe more vulnerable to chemical exposures and also to reduce exposures in communities with unfair burden of exposures, we know that very often, poor communities, communities of color, communities with less resources are exposed to higher levels of chemicals so we have to reduce that unfair burden becaus

kind of a study of the studies tended to suggest we may not be getting a terribly accurate -- that doesn't directly at you you question whs probably the best i can do about the knowledge about drug. i will say that you these very cautious data. >> i notice you're a professor at dartmouth college. that was when my first teaching job a few years ago. i was a john wesley young research professor in the math department. >> great contributed to math and computer science. >> a great place to start your academic career. anyway, my thesis was written in probability. i didn't statistics also. i just wanted to make a few comments before coming to my question. you spent a lot of time in the book about -- i was teaching a business stat course which a colleague of mine described cynically as follows, i asked him what's the difference between business stat and sophisticated business stat course is one in which every observation and your data set has a dollar sign in front of it. anyway, i spent time -- you can't prove simple limit theorem in a basic course. beautiful mathematics but you are just way ove

and studies that look at areas, compare them to one another, ec logic studies, what we find is where there are more guns, there's more death. there's more homicide, there's more suicide, and there are more firearm accidents. these studies have taken pains to try to control for differences between homes with and without guns, states with and without -- states with more and states with fewer guns. and by taking these factors into account, they've tried to render apple-to-apple comparisons, like-to-like comparisons. and what i'm going to show you, um, is a collection of states that have high levels of gun ownership and a collection of states that have the lowest levels of gun ownership. it's meant to illustrate the magnitude of the difference in lethal violence in places where there are many and few guns. in the thinking about what i'm going to show you, remember that this is backed up by method logically rigorous studied that have controlled for all of these various factors at the state and local level as well as at the individual level. okay. so here's a demonstration. if you rank sta

they are pulling out studies saying, "look, here, it works," or, "this study over here proves that we are right." but it looks like at this point there will be some significant change and that the chemical industry will probably lose this one. > sam, let me ask you, what does that feel like, to be leading and involved in a team that does this kind of research, does this kind of reporting, that actually makes significant change in society. > > you have to hand it to the tribune. i spent almost two years working on this one topic, and it is sort of rare in our field to spend four or five months working on just taking a look at one particular study. that is really rare. so i'm thankful to be part of that. > it's gratifying. > > it is an important public issue. these are chemicals that more and more science is proving can harm us, and if they don't need to be there, that needs to be addressed. > sam roe from the chicago tribune. thanks so much. > > thank you. angie's going to be talking about the trading floor and the rather unique role that it plays in the financial industry - trade secr

i did not have any choice of what to study. i wanted to be an astronaut, but i ended up to study chinese literature, because that was an assigned maj. before graduation, i decided to do humanitarian work for my thesis research. i heard that girls were being killed or were having abortions in very late terms due to the one-child policy. the one-child policy is that every couple can have just one child. farmers wanted boys. so i wanted to do that research, and i turned my research to my teacher, and she gave it to a friend, a newspaper, where her friend was the editor, so they wrote an editorial, basically calling to stop the gender inequality or killing. it was good editorial coverage. little did i know that was the very first time a chinese newspaper had admitted that was happening. that is what got me in trouble, and i got thrown in jail for that. tavis: so it is bad enough under the cultural revolution that you are incarcerated, as it were, told what to do, where to go, and you have already dealt with this once in life. now t

this is a really interesting study. we better be certain of the outcomes we're measuring, such as the results of a given standardized test. we have to make sure they track what we truly care about. so everything that this point i assume the text scores are an end we some care about. unique data from the air core academy suggests no, surprisingly, the test scores that glimmer now may not be gold in the future. the air force academy -- there's a lot in the book about the importance of get going data and how hard it is to get data to enable you to study certain things. the academy here is unique in that it randomly assigns its cadets to different sections of standardized core courses such as introductory calculus. this randomization eliminates any potential selection effect when comparing the effectiveness of professors. you don't get to pick your professor, don't even get to pick your class. so over time we can assume that all professors get students with various aptitudes. unlike most universities where student office di

it is not "a" study.ave looked at 100 studies done by different people with, perhaps, different types of study methods. that is not the point. they are talking about mortality. that is death. it is the rate of death in a population. we are talking about morbidity. that is the state of disease or being unhealthy. they are not the same. >>gregg: nonbelly fat in your thighs and butt, not necessarily all that bad because sometimes it accompanied by extra muscle that can be healthy. do you buy that? >>guest: well, if that is true i will probably live to tell the tale when the famine comes. belly fat we know is not good. think of the other things that happen when you are over weight. you more likely to have hypertension, to have diabetes. for every 10 pounds of extra weight you lose if you are over weight, it is from 30 pounds to 60 pounds less pressure on your knee joints. there is nothing good about being overweight. and they are looking at body mass index, but it does not take into account if you have muscle

a problem you know very prolonged additional studies being done by the e.p.a. there were hearings held in the house on on the method used by e.p.a. for the study there was this tremendous backlash by the industry and just this week the e.p.a. again extended the draft study for public comment until september of this year so this is just continually dragged out so this is not the only instance that we've seen where pressure from the oil and gas industry and those who benefit from drilling and fracking. influencing what should be a scientific process that's true even by the at this independent and t. protecting public health and sure my understanding is and correct me if i'm wrong that fracking was something that was basically developed by halliburton which is a company that was nearly bankrupt when dick cheney became vice president they got some huge contracts for the wars which brought them back in and in the cheney. helped ovoid from being regulated we have a little less than a minute can you guess so the fact that entertainment yeah the energy policy act passe

this is part our study that we launched earlier this year. this is a cutting edge project that we know will benefit all of our operators and the cities and regions and residents. the objectives were developed by the councilmembers. first we want to build a workable understanding of our systems interdependencies and the consequences of existing conditions and help restoration and response among agencies. we are using a 2006 study and repeat of the earthquake as our scenario event and we will have a complete scenario of the likely buildings and damages resulting from such a earthquake. we hope to identify the key assets restoration priorities and the region after such an earthquake and develop performance expectations under the current conditions and standards to strive for in the next decade and communication is critical and fuel is critical to our life line and utilities and roads right after that. we've focus the right now on the roads and vs access roads available and water, gas, electricity. i wanted to give you a success story from our li

a new study may give dieters some fresh ammunition in their fight. according to the new research, which matches what some folks have been saying for some time, timing could be everything when it comes to sensible eating. our report from our chief science correspondent, robert bazell. >> reporter: when it comes to meals, many of us, like these lunchtime diners in miami, have fairly set schedules. >> i try not to eat dinner past 6:30. >> i will usually work out in the morning, then follow it up with breakfast and lunch at noon. >> reporter: today's study suggests that timing might matter, at least for those who are trying to lose weight. >> this was the first long-term, large-scale study to really show that the timing of meal intake is important in the success of weight loss therapy. >> reporter: the study looked at overweight women who were on the mediterranean diet, high in fish, vegetables and olive oil. the study was done in spain, where lunch is typically the largest meal of the day. all 420 volunteers consumed the same number of calories, those w
