Design Languages
Just as spoken languages are the basis for our
conversations with people, so design languages are the
basis for our interactions with products and services. Spoken
languages consist of words and rules of grammar. By analogy,
design languages consist of design elements and guidelines
for their combination. People use spoken language to express
themselves. Product designers use design languages
to design expressive objects. When a designer uses a
design language to design a product, the resulting product
expresses what it is, what it does, how it is to be used, and
the experiences to which it has the potential to contribute.
When people use a design language to use a product, the
resulting experience of use is simple and straightforward. The
best design languages take the design of experience on step
further by making interactions between people and objects
pleasant and continuously meaningful. Design languages
play a very important role in the expression of the “unfolding
of meaning” of objects.

States Push Online Fitness Programs
By RICK CALLAHAN
With obesity …22… across the nation, a growing number
of states like Indiana are launching online initiatives to combat
residents’ expanding waistlines. One such initiative is Indiana’s
“10 in 10 Challenge,” an online program that commits
participants to lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks. Proponents say
online programs reach a vast audience, are relatively cheap and
a quick way to let people know about upcoming fitness events
and local resources.
Action to curtail obesity is badly needed for Indiana,
which consistently ranks among the top 10 most obese states,
and is second, behind Kentucky, in the percentage of adults who
smoke, said Eric Neuburger, executive director of the
Governor’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports.
Indiana is far from alone – it’s one of 17 states where at
least 25 percent of the population is obese, according to 2005
data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In a report released in August by the Trust for America’s
Health, the public health advocacy group said research suggests
the nation would save $5.6 billion a year in costs associated with
treating heart disease if just one-tenth of Americans began
walking regularly.
Walking is one of the ideas behind Lighten Up Iowa, a
Web-based four-month program that’s driven by teams who
either track their minutes of activity, their weight-loss, or both.
Now in its sixth year, the Iowa program has been so successful
that 17 other states have modeled their own programs after it,
capitalizing on the Internet’s vast reach and ability to connect
people, helping them stay motivated, said the program’s
coordinator, Deborah Martinez. Its sponsor, the nonprofit Iowa
Sports Foundation, recently launched a national version, Lighten
Up America.
The federal health agency is trying to combat obesity
more broadly with programs in 28 states that encourage fitness
through efforts that include building sidewalks and walking trails,
said Robin Hamre, team leader of a national nutrition and
obesity prevention program at the CDC.
Hamre hopes Congress will fund the program for all 50
states. With obesity striking Americans of all backgrounds, and
surging in children, she said action is needed now.
“We’re seeing the same thing in all age groups and all
races. This is an equal opportunity epidemic,” she said.

Senate Passes Plan to Cut $35 Billion From Deficit
By Jonathan Weisman
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, November 4, 2005; A01
The Senate approved sweeping deficit-reduction
legislation last night that would save about $35 billion over the
next five years by cutting federal spending on prescription drugs,
agriculture supports and student loans, while clamping down on
fraud in the Medicaid program.
The measure would also open Alaska's Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling, a long-sought goal of the oil
industry that took a major step forward after years of political
struggle. A bipartisan effort to strip the drilling provision narrowly
failed.
The Senate bill, which passed 52 to 47, is the first in
nearly a decade to tackle the growth of entitlement spending, the
part of the federal budget that rises automatically based on set
formulas and population changes.
It would shave payments to some farmers by 2.5 percent,
while eliminating a major cotton support program and trimming
agriculture conservation spending. A proposal to limit payments
to rich farmers failed yesterday. The measure passed largely
along party lines, with only two Democrats voting for it and five
Republicans voting against it.
Yesterday's action is part of an effort by congressional
Republicans to demonstrate fiscal discipline after widespread
complaints of profligate spending on Capitol Hill. ....51.... many
Democrats and some moderate Republicans are concerned that
the effort may go too far, prominent Republicans in the Senate
and House said the cuts were necessary to slow the rate of
spending and control a deficit projected to total $314 billion by
the end of the fiscal year.
During a speech yesterday, former House majority leader
Tom Delay (R-Tex) repeatedly apologized for excessive
spending by Congress, including recent highway legislation that
was ....52.... with lawmakers’ pet projects. After noting that House
Republicans have voted to cut taxes every year since winning
the majority in 1994, DeLay acknowledged, “Our record on
spending has not been as consistent, ....53.... .”
