Elizabethtown, KY (PRWEB) February 25, 2012
A new study in the journal Gerontology has found that Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) activity helps with weight loss. While drug trials have gotten mixed results, the authors concluded that exercise is still the most effective means of weight loss. EatMoveBeFit.com is now offering articles on how to burn away unwanted fat and lose weight.
The authors of the study claim that ?BAT remains a very important target for anti-obesity treatment.? However, drugs that stimulate BAT activity have not been given safety clearance, or they have provided only mixed results.
The study?s authors concluded, ?Physical exercise is a [non-drug] intervention which has the potential to activate BAT, promotes weight loss, has beneficial metabolic effects and may even slow the rate of aging.?
This comes as little surprise to Scott Colby, Editor of EatMoveBeFit.com. ?People try taking all kinds of diet pills and supplements, hoping for a quick fix,? said Colby. ?When it comes down to it, weight loss happens because of healthy habits like consistent exercise and a good diet.?
EatMoveBeFit.com is a new e-magazine devoted to topics in health and fitness. Each week it publishes 3 issues, each written by experts in the health and fitness industries. The articles focus on a wide variety of health topics.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) February 23, 2012
According to a recent study by Priceonomics, iPhones have better long term value and lower cost of ownership than other smartphone brands on the market. As a leader in the cell phone resale industry, Totem is able to confirm the conclusions of this study.
After 32 months on the market, an iPhone 3GS with 32GB of memory in mint condition can be sold to Totem for $133.47. Given that this model was launched in June 2009, this means the phone has retained 44.6% of its value, for an average loss of 1.7% per month. Contrast that with a more recent Android model ? the HTC Thunderbolt ? which was released only 11 months ago, originally selling for $249. The current resale price on Totem for a mint condition Thunderbolt is $106.20. The HTC Thunderbolt has only retained 42.7% of its value, already less than the iPhone 3GS despite being released 20 months later.
On average, these findings are consistent when comparing the Apple, Android, and BlackBerry brands. ?After using your iPhone for 18 months, it still retains 53% versus 42% for Android, and 41% for BlackBerry,? said Priceonomics.
One of the possible reasons for iPhone?s superior ability to retain value is the overall success of the device. Due to the popularity of the iPhone, there is a large secondary market for refurbished devices and parts, especially in overseas markets. This helps keep resale values high even for waterlogged, scratched, or damaged iPhone models.
iPhones may also retain their value longer because of their perceived brand cach?. While Android phones retain a more functional brand personae and BlackBerry targets the business user, Apple continues to own the perceived luxury brand in the smartphone market.

Happy Tuesday! We?ve got two unique free themes for you today, and they are quite a study in contrasts.
Our first theme, Splendio, dazzles with an unconventional yet stylish design from Design Disease that pops out of the box ? literally.
How you use this theme is limited only by your imagination! It comes loaded with features: six widget areas (one in the right sidebar and up to five in the footer), featured header images, and a custom background. In addition, there?s a showcase page template (pictured in the screenshot above) that includes a featured slider for sticky posts, and a nifty compact listing of your latest posts. For details on how to set up the Splendio theme on your blog, consult the Theme Showcase.
Our next theme, Suburbia, is as orderly and minimalistic as Splendio is eccentric and playful. Designed by WPShower, Suburbia?s attractive arrangement of posts inside a grid make it an excellent choice for magazine-oriented sites.
Suburbia makes use of featured images to display your posts in a clean, refined style. If you?d like a post to have a larger featured image, mark it as a sticky post. In this manner, you can highlight your most important content. In addition to featured images, Suburbia supports five optional widget areas (four in the footer and one in the sidebar on single posts and pages), a custom background, and custom header image. As always, you can click on over to the Theme Showcase to read more about Suburbia.
We look forward to seeing how you use these two great themes.

A few months ago we added Notifications?to the WordPress.com Toolbar and recently we released a Chrome extension?so that you can always keep up with the activity on your blog. Today we?re adding comment notifications, complete with comment moderation and reply functionality. ?When your post receives a comment, you?ll get a Notification that looks something like this:
If you?re using threaded comments, you?ll see if someone responded directly to you, right in the notification.
You will see Approve, Spam, and Trash links in your comment notification if you have permission to moderate comments, allowing you to moderate the comment from within the notification:
Clicking Reply automatically approves a comment and displays an area for you to type a reply in. When you?re done, just click Reply and you can get back to whatever you were working on, without having to navigate to the dashboard to manage your comments.
You can still manage comments in your dashboard, but we hope you?ll find the comment notification a convenient shortcut.
