Objective:
To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the Takeaway Masterclass, a three-hour training session delivered to staff of independent takeaway food outlets that promoted healthy cooking practices and menu options.
Design:A mixed-methods study design. All participating food outlets provided progress feedback at 6 weeks post-intervention. Baseline and 6-week post-intervention observational and self-reported data were collected in half of participating takeaway food outlets.
Setting:North East England.
Participants:Independent takeaway food outlet owners and managers.
Results:Staff from eighteen (10 % of invited) takeaway food outlets attended the training; attendance did not appear to be associated with the level of deprivation of food outlet location. Changes made by staff that required minimal effort or cost to the business were the most likely to be implemented and sustained. Less popular changes included using products that are difficult (or expensive) to source from suppliers, or changes perceived to be unpopular with customers.
Conclusion:The Takeaway Masterclass appears to be a feasible and acceptable intervention for improving cooking practices and menu options in takeaway food outlets for those who attended the training. Further work is required to increase participation and retention and explore effectiveness, paying particular attention to minimising adverse inequality effects.

Objective
To identify sociodemographic characteristics associated with frequency of consuming home-cooked meals and meals from out-of-home sources.
DesignCross-sectional analysis of a population-based cohort study. Frequency of consuming home-cooked meals, ready meals, takeaways and meals out were derived from a participant questionnaire. Sociodemographic characteristics regarding sex, age, ethnicity, working overtime and socio-economic status (SES; measured by household income, educational attainment, occupational status and employment status) were self-reported. Sociodemographic differences in higher v. lower meal consumption frequency were explored using logistic regression, adjusted for other key sociodemographic variables.
SettingCambridgeshire, UK.
SubjectsFenland Study participants (n 11 326), aged 29–64 years at baseline.
ResultsEating home-cooked meals more frequently was associated with being female, older, of higher SES (measured by greater educational attainment and household income) and not working overtime. Being male was associated with a higher frequency of consumption for all out-of-home meal types. Consuming takeaways more frequently was associated with lower SES (measured by lower educational attainment and household income), whereas eating out more frequently was associated with higher SES (measured by greater educational attainment and household income) and working overtime.
ConclusionsSociodemographic characteristics associated with frequency of eating meals from different out-of-home sources varied according to meal source. Findings may be used to target public health policies and interventions for promoting healthier diets and dietary-related health towards people consuming home-cooked meals less frequently, such as men, those with lower educational attainment and household income, and overtime workers.

Evidence from the Ross embayment, Antarctica, suggests an abrupt cooling and a concomitant increase in sea-ice cover at about 6000 BP (6 ka). Stable-isotope (δD) concentrations in the Taylor Dome ice core, at the western edge of the Ross embayment, decline rapidly after 6 ka, and continue to decline through the late Holocene. Methanesulfonic acid concentrations at Taylor Dome show opposite trends to δD Sediment cores from the western Ross Sea show a percentage minimum for the sea-ice diatom Fragilariopsis curta between 9 and 6 ka, whenTaylor Dome δD values are highest, followed by an increase through the late Holocene. Radiocarbon dates from raised beach deposits indicate that the retreat of ice shelves in the Ross embayment ceased at about 6 ka, coincident with the environmental changes inferred from the sediment and ice-core records. The similarity in timing suggests an important role for climate in controlling the evolution of ice-shelf margins following the end of the last glaciation.

Objective
To evaluate associations of fast-food items (FFI) and sugar-sweetened drinks (SSD) with mortality outcomes including deaths due to any cause, CVD and total cancers among a large sample of adults.
DesignUsing a prospective design, risk of death was compared across baseline dietary exposures. Intakes of FFI and SSD were quantified using a semi-quantitative FFQ (baseline data collected 2000–2002). Deaths (n 4187) were obtained via the Washington State death file through 2008, excluding deaths in the first year of follow-up. Causes of death were categorized as due to CVD (I00–I99) or cancer (C00–D48). Cox models were used to estimated hazard ratios (HR) and 95 % CI.
SettingThe Vitamins and Lifestyle (VITAL) study among adults living in Western Washington State.
SubjectsMen and women (n 69 582) between 50 and 76 years of age at baseline.
ResultsIntakes of FFI and SSD were higher among individuals who were younger, female, African-American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian-American or Pacific Islander, of lower educational attainment, and of lower income (P<0·0001 for all). Higher risk of total mortality was associated with greater intake of FFI (HR=1·16; 95 % CI 1·04, 1·29; P=0·004; comparing highest v. lowest quartile) and SSD (HR=1·19; 95 % CI 1·08, 1·30; P<0·0001; comparing highest v. lowest quartile). Higher intake of FFI was associated with greater cancer-specific mortality while an association with CVD-specific mortality was suggested. Associations between intake of SSD and cause-specific mortality were less clear.
ConclusionsIntake of FFI and SSD has a detrimental effect on future mortality risk. These findings may be salient to socially patterned disparities in mortality.

Nutrition plays an important role in osteoporosis prevention and treatment. Substantial progress in both laboratory analyses and clinical use of biochemical markers has modified the strategy of anti-osteoporotic drug development. The present review examines the use of biochemical markers in clinical research aimed at characterising the influence of foods or nutrients on bone metabolism. The two types of markers are: (i) specific hormonal factors related to bone; and (ii) bone turnover markers (BTM) that reflect bone cell metabolism. Of the former, vitamin D metabolites, parathyroid hormone, and insulin-like growth factor-I indicate responses to variations in the supply of bone-related nutrients, such as vitamin D, Ca, inorganic phosphate and protein. Thus modification in bone remodelling, the key process upon which both pharmaceutical agents and nutrients exert their anti-catabolic or anabolic actions, is revealed. Circulating BTM reflect either osteoclastic resorption or osteoblastic formation. Intervention with pharmacological agents showed that early changes in BTM predicted bone loss and subsequent osteoporotic fracture risk. New trials have documented the influence of nutrition on bone-tropic hormonal factors and BTM in adults, including situations of body-weight change, such as anorexia nervosa, and weight loss by obese subjects. In osteoporosis-prevention studies involving dietary manipulation, randomised cross-over trials are best suited to evaluate influences on bone metabolism, and insight into effects on bone metabolism may be gained within a relatively short time when biochemical markers are monitored.

A rationale is provided for the development of a small group instructional approach to improving the competence of adolescents who reportedly experience difficulty making and maintaining friendships. Social problem-solving studies are briefly examined to provide support for such an approach, which is based on incorporating gradated in vivo assignments into the training process and using progress in these assignments as feedback for further assignment setting. The program, named STAMPS (Social Training for Adolescents: Making Positive Steps) is described in some detail and illustrated with data from a single case. Discussion deals with aspects of the program requiring further investigation, including the selection of peers as potential friends, and the need to modify the program to deal with broader adolescent issues including conflict with authority, teachers, and parents.

Summary
Introduction
By 2009 researchers at the University of Southampton had been working for some time with the issues around eScience and the challenges posed by integrating research data with publication (Heery et al., 2004). Individual researchers were already engaged in national collaborations, but it was the experience of collaboration around the UK Research Data Service (UKRDS) feasibility project in 2008–9 that acted as the catalyst for initiatives to support researchers across the institution in managing their research data. UKRDS was a sectorwide initiative to investigate how the UK could respond to the increasing pressure on institutions to manage their researchers’ data. It initiated a corpus of work on the complexities of storage, retrieval, preservation and reuse and, if the proposal for a national framework did not go forward, the knowledge gained on the issues for the successful management of research data provided the background for the next phase of development. UKRDS was built on a partnership between the librarians, heads of computing services and leading researchers in the major research universities who, together with Jisc and HEFCE, set out a programme to respond to the needs of the research community. It was this collaborative approach that was taken forward in the next phase of development.
The University of Southampton is a major researchled university with a broad spread of disciplines and receives a significant level of research income. In line with the major commitment to science and engineering, the university had since 2000 been investing considerable resource in highperformance computing with the consequent increase in data output. In terms of managing research data, at the outset of the project there were some disciplines for which the deposit of data for the purposes of archiving and sharing was well established, but for the majority of research areas there was no corresponding facility.
UKRDS estimated that 21% of UK researchers used a national or international facility, and that there was an increasing level of data sharing. At Southampton this was reflected in the deposit of data in the national data centres, such as those provided by NERC, ESRC, UKDA or the RutherfordAppleton Laboratory, but there were important areas left without a model for data deposit and archiving, and little provision to match the level of interdisciplinary and transinstitutional research being conducted.

Objective
To examine the use of vitamin D supplements during infancy among the participants in an international infant feeding trial.
DesignLongitudinal study.
SettingInformation about vitamin D supplementation was collected through a validated FFQ at the age of 2 weeks and monthly between the ages of 1 month and 6 months.
SubjectsInfants (n 2159) with a biological family member affected by type 1 diabetes and with increased human leucocyte antigen-conferred susceptibility to type 1 diabetes from twelve European countries, the USA, Canada and Australia.
ResultsDaily use of vitamin D supplements was common during the first 6 months of life in Northern and Central Europe (>80 % of the infants), with somewhat lower rates observed in Southern Europe (>60 %). In Canada, vitamin D supplementation was more common among exclusively breast-fed than other infants (e.g. 71 % v. 44 % at 6 months of age). Less than 2 % of infants in the USA and Australia received any vitamin D supplementation. Higher gestational age, older maternal age and longer maternal education were study-wide associated with greater use of vitamin D supplements.
ConclusionsMost of the infants received vitamin D supplements during the first 6 months of life in the European countries, whereas in Canada only half and in the USA and Australia very few were given supplementation.

Showcasing work has always been at the heart of the arts community, whether it be through an exhibition, site-specific installation or performance. Representation of the original work has also been important and use of print-based options like exhibition catalogues is now complemented by websites and multimedia friendly services like Flickr and YouTube and Vimeo. These services also provide options for sharing born-digital material. For those working in higher education there is a need to profile both the personal and the institutional aspects of creative outputs. The KULTUR project created a model for arts-based institutional repositories and it is hoped that this approach will be useful for other arts institutions.

Summary
This concluding chapter reviews the common and emerging themes from the contributions to this collection and points to what are likely to be the key issues for older workers, their employers and their governments in the coming decades. Following an initial assessment of the concerns, problems and opportunities expressed by the contributors, the chapter is divided into four sections: first, a discussion of government policy and legislative developments that are changing the employment landscape for older workers; second, a consideration of the perspectives of employers as to the threats and opportunities they associate with an ageing workforce; third, an assessment of what older individuals themselves aspire to; and, finally, a conclusion about the main opportunities and constraints that an ageing workforce implies.
Certain key themes emerge from the chapters in this volume, which should guide future research and policy development in the field. The first of these to note, which is easy to attest to and sometimes more difficult to genuinely build into research and policy, is the heterogeneity of older workers. The shorthand of an age cohort (50 years old and over) can all too easily lead us down the road of forgetting that, among those in this age bracket, we are talking about a number of different generations, individuals differentiated by gender, ethnic origin, levels of income, health status and domestic circumstances, never mind differences in outlook and aspirations. In the ESRC seminar series from which this volume springs, there were participants who wanted to reject the very notion of ‘older workers’ for this reason. However, other available terms, such as seniors (Aliaga and Romans, 2006), common in the United States, have yet to take hold in the UK context. The diversity of the older population must be acknowledged and explored in research and policy but another aspect is also worthy of attention; namely, that each generation faces different challenges with regard to continuing to work and to retirement timing. The economic, social and political context is not stable, and hence each generation has a different pattern of saving and pension entitlement and different expectations about extending or restricting working life, and faces varying retirement ages and pension values according to economic and political developments.

Summary
Introduction
In the context of the UK government's aim to extend working lives and encourage people to retire later, the availability of flexible working arrangements, such as part-time work, temporary work or self-employment, has been flagged as important (PIU, 2000; DWP, 2002a, p 98; Phillipson and Smith, 2005, pp 49-53; see also Chapter Seven of this volume). The UK government has taken various steps to prolong working lives, including the establishment of an Extending Working Life group within the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP); regulations to combat age discrimination in the workplace, with effect from October 2006; the raising of women's state pension age (SPA) from 60 to 65 by 2020; and the opportunity for people to defer receipt of their state pension (Whiting, 2005, p 286). The White Paper on pensions reform published in May 2006 also proposes further raising the state pension age to an eventual 68 by 2050 (DWP, 2006b, p 113).
It is hypothesised that increasing flexible work options could have an impact on activity rates of older workers in three main ways:
• by providing opportunities for older workers to downshift at the end of their working careers and hence delay full retirement;
• by providing ‘bridge jobs’ between career occupation and full retirement;
• by encouraging those not currently in work because of unemployment, caring responsibilities or health issues to return to the labour market.
Hitherto, relatively little has been known about the existing patterns of flexible working among older workers or about the aspirations and motivations of older workers with respect to flexible work options. This chapter addresses these issues, drawing on work undertaken for the Equal Opportunities Commission (see Loretto et al, 2005).
The chapter is in five sections. The first sets the scene with an analysis of the January to March 2006 Labour Force Survey (LFS) to provide a picture of the existing patterns of employment among older workers (defined as those aged 50+). The second section continues this analysis of the LFS to consider the current patterns of flexible working and in particular, the gender differences in these. The third reviews existing research, which considers the kinds of flexible work options that older workers need and what informs their needs.
