Dr. Brenda Davy, an associate professor of nutrition at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Blacksburg) and a registered dietitian, is one of the authors of the study.

Within the WebMD article Water May Be Secret Weapon in Weight Loss, she states, “We are presenting results of the first randomized controlled intervention trial demonstrating that increased water consumption is an effective weight loss strategy.”

She adds, “We found in earlier studies that middle aged and older people who drank two cups of water right before eating a meal ate between 75 and 90 fewer calories during the meal.”

Davy emphasizes that substituting sweetened drinks for water will not work in helping to control weight gain.

Davy states, “If you look at research on beverage consumption trends, our average intake of sugar-sweetened beverages has increased dramatically in the past three or four decades. So, likely we are drinking other beverages in place of water.”

For additional information on this study by Dr. Davy and her colleagues, please read the WebMD article mentioned earlier.

The article concludes by saying, “Davy says water makes people feel fuller, inducing them to eat less food. She also offers good news for those who prefer diet sodas and other drinks with artificial sweeteners, saying such liquid refreshment fills people up, too.”

 “But she advises against drinking beverages made tasty with sugar and high fructose corn syrup, which are high in calories.”

Previously, investors could not protect their financial interest due to lack of insurance capacity and first-party rights to the spacecraft. For start-up companies, which rely on the revenue generated by the early launches, the ability for the satellite to be successful is crucial. IPI is the solution, enhancing the satellite operator’s initial credit rating by relieving investors of the biggest risk — failure to launch. “Aon used its leverage with the insurance markets to introduce new capital, supporting both investors and operators by protecting their investments,” said Clive Smith, space business unit leader for Aon‘s International Space Brokers. “As developments continue to increase for areas such as delivering broadband as well as pollution and disaster monitoring, lack of liquidity in the financial markets has delayed industry growth. IPI will restore that growth.”

A claim will be triggered by any damage to or total loss of the satellite. The policy will react to fluctuations in bond yield and the share price before and after the launch or orbit. It pays an amount that recoups the loss of the publicly or privately traded securities of the satellite operating company in which the insured has invested. In the event of a loss paid, the insurers will receive the securities as salvage. “IPI will benefit companies beyond the space industry. Aon is already looking into applications in industries with similar needs that have a technical and financial trigger, which will help avoid the product slipping into the area of financial guarantees,” said Michael Hewins, chief commercial officer of Aon’s International Space Brokers.

One Australian company is already winning world recognition for its space communication facilities. Now it’s going where no other Australian company has gone before and sending its own satellite into space.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE, CEO, NEWSAT: It’s an ambitious program. We believe that in late 2012 you will see this company launch Australia’s first commercial, geo-stationary satellite.

NICOLA WEBBER: NewSat operates out of Melbourne but its main assets are two large teleports – one in Adelaide and one in Perth.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: They comprise 23 very large antenna. Those antenna broadcast to a number of various satellites in the sky. So it is an enormous complex and we have, if you like, space hubs on the ground talking to intelligent communication satellites in the sky.

NICOLA WEBBER: NewSat CEO Adrian Ballintine and Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen launched the company 11 years ago as a multimedia business. It survived the dotcom crash and was re-engineered as a space and satellite company.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: Now, if you imagine the world as being 360 degrees, which it is, and if you imagine at every two degrees around the equator there is a parking slot.

And that’s a parking slot for a satellite. And so you can imagine there’s 180 slots around the circumference and in those slots are very large satellites. And people like NewSat, through their teleports, keep those satellites in their trajectory.

So often our customers are in remote parts of Australia, or on oil platforms. When people need to broadcast in very remote parts of Australia where there is no copper, where there is no wire in the ground, satellite is an obvious choice.

NICOLA WEBBER: NewSat has a strong base of customers in Australia, the Middle East and Africa.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: We have significant business with the US military, the oil, gas and mining giants of Australia, and also with oil, gas and mining giants from around the world.

We do very simple things for all of those communities, such as broadcast video, voice and data but we also do very complex activities such as creating software that would, for example, monitor the amount of gas that flows through a pipeline in north-west Australia.

NICOLA WEBBER: But satellites are becoming very crowded real estate. NewSat established a subsidiary company, Jabiru, to launch its satellite and a launch date is booked for December 2012.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: It’s quite amazing that Australia has never had an organisation that was Australian based, that was able to launch its own satellite.

And there are very few companies in the world that after they’ve launched their first satellite are not already thinking about satellite number two and three.

NICOLA WEBBER: NewSat is a listed company with revenue of $30 million a year, no debt and now turning a profit. But launching your own satellite does not come cheaply.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: The project is in the order of $400 million. So the combination of debt, equity and export development will ensure that we are well funded for the project. We have demonstrated to the insurers and space companies that we know our business and we know our worth and so we have no shortage of people wishing to partner with us.

NICOLA WEBBER: NewSat hopes its space experience will launch it straight into the proposed national broadband network.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: A) Because that’s the business we’re in, b) Because we employ the most people in that regard, and c) Because the world would recognise that NewSat slash Jabiru is Australia’s most pre-eminent space organisation.

NICOLA WEBBER: Recognition is already coming NewSat’s way. The company was a finalist in the recent international teleport awards announced in Washington DC.

ADRIAN BALLINTINE: It’s also a signal to people who are making decisions in Australia whether it’s corporate Australia or whether it’s the government that you’ve got a home grown company here, owned by a bunch of Australian people, who are right at the forefront of world technology.
