Thanks! i ABSTRACT Satiety, in this dissertation, broadly refers to the feeling of fullness and/or inhibition of hunger sensations after a meal resulting from the ingestion of food. The objective of the experiment in Chapter 2 was to gain a better understanding of hunger and fullness from consumers through the use of focus groups. Hunger and fullness sensations were described as having both physical and psychological components. The objectives of Chapter 3 and 4 were to develop and test a questionnaire to assess satiety sensations. Factor analysis of satiety related questions revealed five factors: mental hunger, physical hunger, mental fullness, physical fullness and food liking. These five factors have been named the Five Factor Satiety Questionnaire. In the first validation study, thirty participants evaluated satiety feelings produced by oranges and oatmeal. Food intake from an ad libitum snack offered two hours after breakfast was covertly recorded. The factor scales and traditional single-item scales (hunger, fullness, desire, and prospective consumption) revealed that oatmeal was more satiating than oranges. The factor scales offered enhanced understanding over the traditional scales by showing that oranges produced much more mental hunger and slightly more physical hunger than the oatmeal. The factor scales also had smaller distributions around the means and greater effect sizes than the traditional scales. In a second study, participants evaluated satiety feelings produced by two equal-calorie smoothies that differed only in that one contained cumin to lower acceptability. The more palatable regular smoothie provided greater mental fullness factor sensations than the spiced cumin smoothie. Again, all of the factor scales produced smaller distributions around the means and greater effect sizes. The experiment in Chapter 5 was conducted in response to the interest in understanding satiety that added fibers provide. Hunger and satiety of 10g of oligofructose, inulin, soluble corn fiber, resistant wheat starch and a control with no added fiber in chocolate crisp bars was evaluated. Satiety ratings were made using three satiety scale protocols: (1) Slavin scales of hunger, fullness, satisfaction and prospective consumption, (2) traditional scales of fullness, hunger, amount, and desire and (3) factor scales of mental hunger, physical hunger, mental fullness, physical fullness and food liking. Food intake was measured at ii an ad libitum lunch served 180min after breakfast and subjects recorded food intake over the remainder of the 24hr study day. Breath hydrogen, breath methane and GI tolerance were assessed. While there were no significant differences in hunger or satiety found using the Slavin scales, traditional scales or factor scales among the fiber treatment bars during the three hour study duration, the factor scales exhibited the least amount of variability indicating higher sensitivity to the differences between the bars than the Slavin or traditional scales. There was also no significant difference found in the ad libitum lunch or 24hr calorie consumption among the different fibers. The bar with oligofructose produced the greatest amount of breath hydrogen, bloating and flatulence ratings while the control bar produced the least. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .............................................................................................. i ABSTRACT ....................................................................................................................... ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ................................................................................................ iv LIST OF TABLES ........................................................................................................... vi LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................... x Chapter 1 ........................................................................................................................... 1 Introduction ....................................................................................................................1 Satiety Defined...............................................................................................................2 Common Satiety Descriptors .........................................................................................5 Current Methods to Measure Satiety .............................................................................9 Line Scales .........................................................................................................9 Pictorial Methods.............................................................................................13 Food intake ......................................................................................................14 Combination of food intake and line scale ratings ..........................................17 Length of satiety studies ...................................................................................18 The Effectiveness of Current Satiety Screening Methods ...........................................18 Influence of food liking on satiety ....................................................................20 Participant Differences – Influences on Satiety Ratings ..............................................21 Gender and Age ...............................................................................................21 Eating restraint ................................................................................................22 Body Mass Index (BMI) ...................................................................................25 Satiety of Foods ...........................................................................................................26 Fiber .................................................................................................................27 Fat. ..................................................................................................................28 Carbohydrate ...................................................................................................29 Protein..............................................................................................................30 Food Form .......................................................................................................31 RESEARCH OBJECTIVES AND HYPOTHESES .................................................... 34 Chapter 2 ......................................................................................................................... 40 CONSUMER VIEWS OF HUNGER AND FULLNESS: A QUALITATIVE APPROACH .................40 Introduction ......................................................................................................41 Methods............................................................................................................45 Results ..............................................................................................................49 Discussion ........................................................................................................59 Chapter 3 ......................................................................................................................... 66 THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SCALE TO MEASURE THE SUBJECTIVE EXPERIENCES OF HUNGER AND SATIETY ..............................................................................................66 iv Introduction ......................................................................................................66

  • Building a Better Breakfast
    Building a Better Breakfast Most people have the best of intentions for breakfast. Ideally, weekday mornings would start with a handcrafted cold brew, good-for-you grain bowls, farm fresh eggs and an abundance of avocado. The kind of morning eats that will leave you well-nourished, perked up and ready to take on the day. Often life gets in the way of a healthy start, especially when you’re on the road. Yet instead of succumbing to carb-heavy or humdrum options, Re:fuel Pots from Aloft hotels puts a fresh—and flavorful—spin on instant-breakfast options. Redefining Breakfast on the Road For decades, heavy breakfasts such as doughnuts and bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches, dominated the on-the-go menu, with nary a vegetable or whole grain in sight. Toni Stoeckl, global brand leader and vice president of Distinctive Select Brands Marriott International, is ready to change that. He sees Aloft Hotels’ Re:fuel Pots as a way for guests to have an authentic café experience without having to leave the hotel. When developing the Pots, a global network of chefs came together to brainstorm ideas from more than 75 combinations, coming up with on-trend ideas and locally sourced eats. “We wanted to build something fast and efficient without sacrificing quality of ingredients,” Stoeckl says. By incorporating the most appealing elements of modern morning favorites like savory hashes, and classics like French toast and huevos rancheros, Re:fuel Pots are a fresh take on breakfast, neatly tucked into a well-designed package. Unlike a traditional dining room set up, these innovative Pots are ordered at sleek lobby kiosks and deliver a custom-built breakfast in a matter of minutes.

  • The Authenticity of Ambiguity: Dada and Existentialism
    THE AUTHENTICITY OF AMBIGUITY: DADA AND EXISTENTIALISM by ELIZABETH FRANCES BENJAMIN A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham August 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

French Existentialism is often condemned for its perceived quietist implications. However, closer analysis reveals a preoccupation with philosophy in the former and with art in the latter. Neither was nonsensical or meaningless, but both reveal a rich individualist ethics aimed at the amelioration of the individual and society. It is through their combined analysis that we can view and productively utilise their alignment. Offering new critical aesthetic and philosophical approaches to Dada as a quintessential part of the European Avant-Garde, this thesis performs a reassessment of the movement as a form of (proto-)Existentialist philosophy. The thesis represents the first major comparative study of Dada and Existentialism, contributing a new perspective on Dada as a movement, a historical legacy, and a philosophical field of study.

Simultaneously medieval & modern, its distinctive, dark and elegantly beautiful music has set the standard for “chamber rock”, a New Music hybrid of Francophone origin and worldwide appeal that UZ pioneered. UZ’s singular sound derives from its unique instrumentation (piano and keyboards, violin, clarinets saxophone, oboe, bassoon, English horn, electric bass, drums) combined with brooding gothic imagery, elements of European folk and other world musics, the iconoclasm and intensity of rock, the relentless sonic experimentation of the avant garde, and leader and composer Daniel Denis’ classically-inspired writing style, influenced by early 20th Century avant garde classical composers. In the hands of some of the best musicians in Europe, these factors result in a group on the cutting edge of creating a new, vital, and unique fusion of classical and rock music. The band has remained on the cutting edge of New Music throughout the course of a career that began in the ‘70s and continues today, stretching and disintegrating the boundaries of classical and rock music alike to create a new, vital, and unique fusion.

This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement ⓒ 2016 The University of Leeds and Sangdon Lee The right of Sangdon Lee to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 ii Abstract The communal revival that began in the mid-1960s developed into a new mode of activism, ‘communal activism’ or the ‘commune movement’, forming its own politics, lifestyle and ideology. Communal activism spread and flourished until the mid-1970s in many parts of the world. To analyse this global phenomenon, this thesis explores the similarities and differences between the commune movements of Denmark, UK and the US. By examining the motivations for the communal revival, links with 1960s radicalism, communes’ praxis and outward-facing activities, and the crisis within the commune movement and responses to it, this thesis places communal activism within the context of wider social movements for social change. Challenging existing interpretations which have understood the communal revival as an alternative living experiment to the nuclear family, or as a smaller part of the counter-culture, this thesis argues that the commune participants created varied and new experiments for a total revolution against the prevailing social order and its dominant values and institutions, including the patriarchal family and capitalism.

  • Hipster Black Metal?
    Hipster Black Metal? Deafheaven’s Sunbather and the Evolution of an (Un) popular Genre Paola Ferrero A couple of months ago a guy walks into a bar in Brooklyn and strikes up a conversation with the bartenders about heavy metal. The guy happens to mention that Deafheaven, an up-and-coming American black metal (BM) band, is going to perform at Saint Vitus, the local metal concert venue, in a couple of weeks. The bartenders immediately become confrontational, denying Deafheaven the BM ‘label of authenticity’: the band, according to them, plays ‘hipster metal’ and their singer, George Clarke, clearly sports a hipster hairstyle. Good thing they probably did not know who they were talking to: the ‘guy’ in our story is, in fact, Jonah Bayer, a contributor to Noisey, the music magazine of Vice, considered to be one of the bastions of hipster online culture. The product of that conversation, a piece entitled ‘Why are black metal fans such elitist assholes?’ was almost certainly intended as a humorous nod to the ongoing debate, generated mainly by music webzines and their readers, over Deafheaven’s inclusion in the BM canon. The article features a promo picture of the band, two young, clean- shaven guys, wearing indistinct clothing, with short haircuts and mild, neutral facial expressions, their faces made to look like they were ironically wearing black and white make up, the typical ‘corpse-paint’ of traditional, early BM. It certainly did not help that Bayer also included a picture of Inquisition, a historical BM band from Colombia formed in the early 1990s, and ridiculed their corpse-paint and black cloaks attire with the following caption: ‘Here’s what you’re defending, black metal purists.
