INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Now that you have your target calorie and macro ranges, it is time to re-analyze your old eating habits. Look at your previous diet, as recorded in section "Understand Your Current Lifestyle", and figure out what you need to cut or change in order to meet your new goals. This takes some time, play around with menu ideas and calculate the calorie and macronutrient content. Find a diet that fits your taste and lifestyle but is within the nutrition guidelines. Good foods you may want to consider adding or substituting into your diet are as follow: Good protein sources include skinless chicken breast, ground turkey, bison, egg whites, Greek yogurt, and tofu. Good fat sources include almonds, peanuts, flax seeds, chia seeds, fish, egg yolks, and olive oil. Good carbohydrate sources include unprocessed carbohydrates such as sweet potatoes, brown rice, fruit, oatmeal, bran, wheat germ, Bulgarian wheat, beans, and vegetables. Try to minimize highly processed foods, such as bread, pastries, pasta, fast food, and frozen prepared meals. It helps to diet with the people you live with. It is easier to eat clean if you are not surrounded by temptation and bad influences. Try to enlist family and roommates to join your diet. Do yourself a favor and throw out any junk food in your house. It is easier to stay on your diet if tempting junk food is not in easy reach. Go to the store and stock up on the food you need for your diet, lean proteins, vegetables and complex carbohydrates. Spread your calories out throughout the day. Consider eating 5-6 small meals a day instead of just three. Also make sure to eat breakfast when you first wake up. Drink water with and between meals. This will help you feel fuller while dieting. With a long term diet, like 20 pounds, the hardest part is being consistent. Few people have the willpower to be perfect for the 3-6 months it takes to lose 20 pounds. Therefore it is advisable that you build into your diet a "cheat meal" once a week. A cheat meal does not mean that you get to eat an entire pizza and a carton of ice cream in one sitting. But it is an opportunity to eat something that is not on your diet. So have two slices of pizza and a reasonable bowl of ice cream. Have your cheat meal guilt free, after all it is a planned part of your diet, then immediately get back on your diet for the next meal. A regular and reasonable cheat meal may even help boost your metabolism . Not enough sleep can hamper your weight loss efforts. Try to get 8 hours of sleep per night. Log your food intake throughout your diet. If you eat as prescribed and maintain your current activity level or more, you should be able to successfully lose 20 pounds. Keep in mind that as you lose weight you may want to recalculate your macronutrient and caloric needs.

SUMMARY: Plan your diet. Enlist family/roommates. Clean your kitchen. Go grocery shopping. Eat frequent, small meals. Drink water. Plan a weekly cheat meal. Get enough sleep. Make it a lifestyle.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fenton milk glass is known for its ornate pieces with raised bumps and frilled edges. Most Fenton pieces will have an "F" or "Fenton" engraved inside of an oval on the bottom side of the item. If your item has this engraving, it could be genuine. After 1980, Fenton started to put a single number after the "F" or "Fenton" engraving, to denote the first number in the decade. Therefore, all Fenton glassware made in the 80's has an "8" after the "F" or "Fenton." Fenton has been making glassware since 1905. If "PV" or "Vallerysthal" is a raised engraving on the bottom of the piece, it may be a genuine item from Vallerysthal Glassworks of France. Typically, these pieces are a bluish-white color and are made into glass animals or shells. Some newer Vallerysthal pieces have a sticker that says "PV France" on the bottom of the item instead of an engraving. Vallerysthal Glassworks was founded in 1836 in France and still makes glassware today. An engraving of "WG" on the bottom of the item means that the product was produced by Westmoreland in America. They are known for their rimmed edges and grape and floral designs. If the "G" overlays the "W" in the logo, there's a good chance that the item was produced before the 1980s. Westmoreland made glassware from 1889-1984. Fostoria pieces typically have a paper label that denotes the brand; however, older pieces may be missing the label. Luckily, most Fostoria pieces have the same sort of engraving--an ornate crossing pattern that creates raised triangles on the surface of the piece. Not all Fostoria pieces have its famous pattern. Fostoria usually makes vases, cups, and bowls. Fostoria made glass from 1887-1986.

SUMMARY: Look for an engraved "F" or "Fenton" on the bottom of the piece. Search for a "Vallerysthal" or "PV" engraved on the bottom. Check for a "WG" engraving or fruits, birds, and/or flowers on the piece. Identify Fostoria pieces by its etching or paper label.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Nowadays, premium sake is usually served chilled instead of warm. However, if you have a less expensive type or homemade sake, or simply want to draw out a different dimension of flavor, you can try heating it before serving it. This can be an especially good option for a cold winter day. Heat causes the alcohol to vaporize. Aroma-producing ingredients with low boiling points also vaporize, making these flavors stand out more. This has very little effect on bitter acidic tastes, but sweet tastes get pronounced more effectively. As such, sake with a high level of acidity is often heated since the process can balance the acidic flavor with the sweet undertones more evenly. Warm sake also tends to have a "dry" taste when compared to chilled sake. The effect of the alcohol is increased as the vapors begin coming off. There is a full range of temperatures you can heat sake to, from lukewarm to hot. The right temperature to use depends partially on personal preference, but there are a few standard approaches to take that you might want to consider. The average temperature of kan sake, or "warm sake," is between 107.6 and 113 degrees Fahrenheit (42 and 45 degrees Celsius). The full range of possible warmth varies slightly beyond this, though, and each range of warmth has its own traditional term associated with it. At 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius), sake is referred to hinata-kan, or "warmed in the sunshine." At 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius), sake is referred to as hitohada-kan, or "heated to body temperature." At 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius), sake is referred to as nuru-kan, or "heated to tepid temperature." At 113 degrees Fahrenheit (45 degrees Celsius), sake is referred to as jo-kan, or "heated fairly warm." At 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees Celsius), sake is referred to as atsu-kan, or "heated hot." As a general rule, warm sake is ideal as an accompaniment for cold or plain dishes, like sushi, as well as dishes that have soy sauce in them. Hot sake, on the other hand, is ideal to serve alongside warmer dishes, like hot pot, or foods made with a large amount of oil or fat. Two types of sake that are often heated include junmai and honjozo. Junmai sake is often served fairly warm to hot.Honjozo sake is typically served warm at room to body temperature.

SUMMARY:
Know when to heat sake. Determine the right temperature.
