Most dieters fall into a weight loss slump when it comes to food cravings. A sweet tooth can be a dieter's worst nemesis, making it hard to stick to healthy eating habits or reduced-calorie diets. While exercise is important to weight loss success, it can also increase food cravings as your body burns more energy. This complex cycle makes effective weight loss hard to achieve, but an appetite suppressant can offer you the key for your success....more

Many of us attend conferences either as a work requirement or to learn new things for our personal development, and they are often relating to fairly standard topics that appeal to a lot of people. However, there also lots of much more niche and somewhat unusual conferences out there, and below are just a few that are weird, wonderful and what you'd never expect.First on the list is the National Pheasant Fest , an American event which is held annually and is a hub for everything pheasant and quail related. It's organised by Pheasants Forever & Quail Forever and topics addressed include wildlife conservation, hunting & habitat management. Highlights of the 2009 conference were dog training seminars and hunting keynotes, and the 2011 event will be hosted by Omaha, Nebraska.Pheasants not your thing? Then another American event Cheese-a-Topia may be more your kind of thing.

The above examples illustrate how grammar is used to indicate differences in 'notional meaning' (Batstone 1995)—that is differences in semantic categories, such as time, duration, frequency, defmiteness, etc. The liberating power which grammar gives us—to transcend the limitations of lexis and context in the communication of meaning—is also deployed in expressing attitudinal meanings, such as approval, disapproval, politeness, abruptness, and social intimacy or distance, etc. (Batstone op. cit., Larsen-Freeman op. cit.).The following example from Batstone illustrates how a writer might deliberately contrast two tenses to indicate approval and disapproval towards the respective subjects of the verb: Smith (1980) argued that Britain was no longer a country in which freedom of speech was seriously maintained. Johnson (1983), though, argues that Britain remains a citadel of Links London individual liberty. Commenting on this example, Batstone (ibid.: 198) suggests that the use of the past tense signals that Smith's argument is no longer worthy of current interest ... it is (in two significant senses) passe, whereas the contrasting use of the present tense in the...more
