Semaglutide

In an early study of 2,000 obese adults compared people using semaglutide plus a diet and exercise program with people who made the same lifestyle changes without semaglutide. After 68 weeks, half of the participants using semaglutide lost 15% of their body weight, and nearly a third lost 20%.

Discuss exercise pattern from prior week and make appropriate recommendations.

Focus on anaerobic exercise for at least 30 minutes 4-5 times per week. Aerobic should be on top of this but if they only have time for one or the other, then advise anaerobic.

Visit 4

Discuss progress/lack of progress vs week 1 baseline if we have a new body composition.

Keep in mind that they are in the building stage of the medication, so we are not expecting a lot of fat loss at this point. 3-4 lbs of fat loss in the first month would be considered a success. Many patients with 75-100 lbs to lose report losing up to 25 lbs in first month. Ascertain if patient has been compliant with dietary and exercise recommendations and medication adherence.

Action: If there has been no fat loss or even fat gain, then need to discuss the case with medical director for possible additional interventions. Advise patient to track sleep for next week preferably with sleep tracking device but if not, then just manual tracking (time to bed, time waking up, how many times did they awake for the night, sleep hygiene questions.)

EVA Air has just revealed plans to launch flights to its newest destination in North America as of the middle of 2026, and it’ll be among the carrier’s longest routes to date…

As of July 2026, EVA Air intends to launch a new 4x weekly route between Taipei (TPE) and Washington Dulles (IAD). EVA Air will use a three-cabin Boeing 787-9 for the route, featuring 278 seats. This includes 26 business class seats, 28 premium economy seats, and 224 economy class seats.

Final preparations are still being made for this service to launch, so the flight isn’t yet on sale. As a result, the exact launch date and schedule haven’t yet been announced, though the airline states that that the schedule will be similar to the New York flight. The New York flight departs Taipei in the evening and also arrives in New York in the evening, before turning around in the middle of the night, and landing back in Taipei early the following morning.

At 7,864 miles, this will be among EVA Air’s longest flights. Technically, Houston (IAH) is EVA Air’s furthest destination, at 7,939 miles. However, the Washington Dulles flight will likely take longer, given that this route is more impacted by the closure of Russian airspace.

Personally I’m a huge fan of EVA Air’s business class, and rank it among the best in the world. While the hard product isn’t that great, EVA Air’s soft product is phenomenal, from the food, to the drinks, to the amenities, to the service.

Washington Dulles will be EVA Air’s 10th destination in North America, complementing service to Chicago (ORD), Dallas (DFW), Houston (IAH), Los Angeles (LAX), New York (JFK), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), Toronto (YYZ), and Vancouver (YVR).

So, what’s EVA Air’s motive for flying to Washington Dulles? According to an EVA Air executive:

I think another thing to keep in mind is that Taiwanese aviation is incredibly competitive, because in addition to EVA Air, you have China Airlines and Starlux Airlines. So there’s a competitive desire to launch routes before other Taiwanese airlines, and I imagine that’s also at play here. EVA Air is best positioned for Washington flights, given its Star Alliance membership.

As of July 2026, EVA Air intends to launch a new 4x weekly flight between Taipei and Washington Dulles with a 787. The exact launch date and schedule are expected to be announced in the coming weeks. This will be EVA Air’s 10th destination in North America, and on top of that, EVA Air will be the first Taiwanese airline to fly to Washington Dulles.

Berkadia, a distinguished leader in the commercial real estate sector, announced that it has arranged a $9.5 million refinancing for Bonsai Apartments, a newly constructed, 41-unit boutique multifamily community located in Washington, D.C.’s H Street Corridor.

Senior Managing Director Mitch Sinberg, and Managing Directors Matt Robbins, Scott Wadler and Brad Williamson of Berkadia Boca Raton and Miami, alongside Managing Director Brian Gould of Berkadia DC Metro, arranged the financing on behalf of the owner, July Residential.

“Bonsai is a thoughtfully designed, well-located asset that aligns with continued renter demand for smaller, design-forward communities in walkable urban neighborhoods,” said Robbins. “This refinancing positions the sponsor to stabilize the property while maintaining flexibility in a dynamic capital markets environment.”

July Residential is a vertically integrated multifamily owner-operator with a nationwide portfolio totaling approximately $2 billion and more than 12,000 units.

Completed in 2024 and located at 1214 Bladensburg Road, Bonsai Apartments features 41 modern residences. The four-story community offers a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom floor plans ranging from 442 to 940 square feet, with Japanese-inspired finishes and light-filled interiors.

In-unit features include keyless entry, oversized floor-to-ceiling windows, wood-plank flooring and plush carpeting, recessed lighting, slow-close European cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, marble-tile bathrooms and deep soaking tubs. Community amenities include a fitness center, rooftop lounge, bike storage, and package concierge services.

The property is conveniently located less than three miles from Downtown Washington, D.C. and Capitol Hill, approximately five miles from Reagan National Airport, and offers easy access to major employment centers, transit corridors, and regional thoroughfares, making it well positioned for professionals working throughout the DC Metro. Residents enjoy proximity to some of the area’s most popular destinations, including Whole Foods Market, Union Market, and a dynamic lineup of acclaimed local restaurants and retailers.

The holiday season hasn't ended just yet.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, Three Kings Day or Día de Los Reyes is celebrated.

What is Three Kings Day?

Three Kings Day (Día de Los Reyes) or the Feast of Epiphany is a holiday that commemorates the day the three wise men — Melchior, Caspar and Balthazar — arrived with gifts for baby Jesus.

Three Kings Day or Epiphany is celebrated by Roman Catholics on Jan. 6, as the culmination of the 12 days of Christmas.

Although the birth of Jesus is celebrated on Christmas Day, the three Kings didn't actually reach him until twelve days later, which is why Three Kings Day is celebrated on the 12th day of Christmas.

Orthodox Christian faiths celebrate Epiphany on Jan. 19.

"The Three Kings" or the "wise men" or the "Magi" followed a star to Bethlehem to show their adoration for baby Jesus.

The Bible says a bright star led the magi from the east until it stopped “over the place where the child was,” and “upon entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother” (Matthew 1:24).

They presented Him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

Gold has always represented wealth and power. It symbolized Christ's royal status as King of the Jews. Frankincense, a type of incense and perfume, represented His divinity and identity as the Son of God. Myrrh, an anointing oil and embalming fluid, referred to Jesus' mortality.

What countries celebrate Three Kings Day?

Día de Los Reyes is celebrated in Spanish-speaking countries like Mexico and Spain, in addition to other countries in Latin America, the Caribbean, France, Poland, and by some Latinos in the United States, especially Puerto Rico.

How is it celebrated?

Popular traditions during the holiday include gift-giving, large feasts, and indulging in King Cake or Rosca de Reyes.

King Cake is most often associated with Mardi Gras but is also eaten in honor of Epiphany. Louisiana-style king cakes consist of a cakey bread dough twisted into a ring and decorated with icing and colored purple, green and yellow sprinkles.

Rosca de Reyes is a special bread with fruit and sugar that comes in the shape of an oval to represent a crown. Candied figs and cherries symbolize the crown jewels.

Inside both variations of cake, a baby Jesus doll is hidden.

Whoever finds the doll is believed to receive good luck but must also host a party on Candlemas (February 2nd) or host next year's celebration.

Similar to stockings at Christmas, many children leave out their shoes the night before for the wise men to leave candies and toys in.

And like the tradition of leaving cookies and milk for Santa, children will pick grass or hay and leave water for the camels to eat and drink.

Three Kings Day parades also take place around the world, from New York City to Madrid and Uruguay.
