Obese women have around a 40 per cent increased risk of developing cancer in their lifetime than women of a healthy weight.
A new six-part series on obesity published in The Lancet points to 'unacceptably slow' progress in tackling the issue globally.
Walmart and fast-food restaurants are key contributors to the obesity epidemic in the US.
Both low and high birth weight and rapid childhood growth are associated with adult diseases.
Including almonds in your daily diet could help reduce belly fat, a well-established heart disease risk factor, says a study.
The researchers used data gathered between 1971 and 2008, when participants ranged in age from 27 to 63.
Almost a third of the world is now fat. Here're top 5 obesity studies that warn us enough to shed that extra weight right away.
First menstrual cycle age linked to heart disease, stroke, and complications of high blood pressure.
The researchers examined the association between occupational sitting and BMI between men and women and between black and white women.
Researchers found that the brains of obese kids are hypersensitive to sugar.
Increasing sugar in the diet of male fruit flies can lead to obesity in the next generation.
Obesity is to blame for nearly half a million cases of cancer a year, with overweight women at a far greater risk than men.
Obese people without an overt manifestation of heart disease experience silent cardiac damage that fuels risk of heart failure in the future.
This is the first study of this kind directly linking maternal hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) to overweight offspring.
If you have a history of depression, picking up fights with your better half could increase the risk of obesity.

In eight hours 2014 arrives. People have begun to elevate to the point of hysteria their claims for it to be a "new start." Rather than act in the moment, while it is still 31 December, most figure it best to begin tomorrow morning, or perhaps afternoon. I wish them well. While the future is being eagerly fantasized over, the year 2013 is being obsessively analyzed, and first drafts of its place in history are being posted digitally, tweeted endlessly and chatted about on TV as if one stroke after Midnight makes them a tidy conclusion. Linear thinking. Who needs it?
In New York City, where I am celebrating this evening, a new mayor prepares to take office and "make the city better," while a departing Mayor, Michael Bloomberg (whose kind words helped the Intelligent Community Forum establish credibility in New York ten years ago), claims that during his tenure the city was made better. Americans are a restless bunch.
As you know, success in a city or a community is never assured. In the end success ultimately depends on factors that evolve from collaboration, daring leadership and the ability to make programs works and ideas believable. This is the age of the civic experiment and the community is a canvas and a lab. As we head toward the selection of our next group of the world's seven most representative communities for the future, Intelligent Communities are right smack in the center of the innovations that are taking place at the local level. What will be the outcome? I believe it will be more successes shaped around our five criteria and the realization that most problems begin and end in the place we call "home." No need to travel to find trouble. Just look inside, as the Buddhists say. Of course in the final analysis a confluence of events that we call dumb Luck are factors we must also weigh into the mix. There may be more wisdom in China than thought, as it is a place where people pray for luck and let hard work and the pursuit of economic success help guide It along.
Guiding luck toward success is tricky business. President Toomas H. Ilves of Estonia pointed out recently that if his nation, whose phone system in 1993 was literally one from 1938, had taken Finland's offer of a free analog system from the late 1970's, things would be far different in places such as its capital and five-time Top7 Intelligent Community, Tallinn.
But Ilves said no. "We do not want to get stuck with 1979 technology" (especially not in 1993), he told his citizens. It is better to take a leap and go straight to the most modern technology." The decision was taken and it was followed by success of a type others now envy and study. Before Skype was purchased for US$8.5 billion, it was dreamed of in Estonia. Tallinn, because of its Intelligent Community status, is today mentioned in the same breath as entrepreneurial communities such as London, Silicon Valley and Eindhoven. On a per capita basis, Estonia generates as many start-ups as the USA. How long does it take to start a business in Tallinn or any part of Estonia thanks to its digital infrastructure? 18 seconds. (Try that with a Communist-inspired network.)
But the discussion we will have after Midnight is increasingly NOT about technology. The fact remains that you can define success in three words: we want it. We want it very bad. We want it so we can find ways to build better places, rationalize our investments and our decisions to live in that place; to improve the cities in which we live and to go forward confidently in the knowledge that where we stop is reachable by following a path built from our hopes and not our fears. "Help us," a common prayer says in petition, "to walk a walk of faith and not of fear."
We have found a way to get there, and the Intelligent Community Forum will keep the path open. In a few days, I will speak about this new horizon for cities in a place that has taught me much about the subject, Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Its motto, "creating the industries of the future," is where the train to community thinking can begin.
The future of Place, that is of local economies and OUR HOMES, depends on the degree to which we manage two things: our ability to create not merely jobs, which churn fast and vanish, but industries that thrive and define us. The future will be shaped around another type of success that we often ignore: the success of our ideas. We understand that true growth – the real seeds of life – come from each individual pursuing personal growth. This means liberty. This means a free gymnasium for the exercise of conscience. This means creativity at the center of life. The fact that in 2010 the first synthetic organism was produced is not a metric that economists or governments will look at as the evolution of an industry – or industries. But it is all of that. Everyone spoke endlessly about "jobs" in 2013. In 2014, as you will discover, the new Top7 and ICF will be talking about new industries. My keynote in Eindhoven will start the year on this path and it will be followed by a gathering in the reigning Intelligent Community of the Year, Taichung. In Taichung, as the Top7 will be named in the city that has married industries to universities to government. If you attend the city will show you on 22 January how it is done. Contact us for more details.
Will it all roll-up neatly into a package, or arc upward in a straight line? Hell no. When did it ever, except after several drinks on the last day of a year when our nostalgia got the best of us. Now, it nearly Midnight. Friends and community are waiting. It is time to have those drinks, enjoy the possibilities, and tomorrow get on the path forward.
I would like to amplify on my colleague's last blog, as I too participated in The Economist Web debate on Smart Cities. I too voted "no" – Smart Cities are not empty hype, but I wasn't surprized by the split vote. As Robert Bell stated in the last blog, "Smart Cities are about using a new generation of cheap, powerful sensors, data storage and software to automate cities …. using information and communications technology (ICT) to do more with less." Cities that have become involved in these tech enhanced programs like are quite happy with their asset management initiatives. But having worked with some of these cities, I cannot say that they would qualify as Intelligent Communities. They could if they go the next steps and build on the platform that has been built for them by the Smart City technology firm. So my position was a little different. I felt that these tech companies are doing these cities a big favor by helping them to get a terrific grounding on the first level of intelligent communities – namely by focusing on what we call getting the infrastructure right. Here is what I said:
"I think it's essential to have smart cities. They are not just empty hype. Whether they evolve as a result of public policy first or come originally in a box from vendors promoting it to the city technocrats perhaps without a clear picture of where the community is going with it, the end result is the same - like early adopters, these communities will have the benefit of the experience of greater efficiencies in transportation, utilities, etc; improved budgets; and overall longer term sustainability than without them. Citizens, technocrats and decision makers alike will greatly benefit from this experience and want to constantly improve upon their smart community with increased connectivity, perhaps even seek to develop ultra-high-speed broadband throughout their community like Toronto's Waterfront or Chattanooga; perhaps more wireless monitoring capabilities will be installed to capture even more data, but which might also double up as free Wi-Fi for their citizens; and maybe even some visioning among thought leaders in the community might result to help to develop a plan to improve their community further or take advantage of underutilized land or buildings which might benefit from these smart services. Their city asset managers will greatly benefit from these and likely promote further improvements and maybe even seek more ways for their community to benefit from these smart technologies and methodologies.
Sooner or later the benefits will also attract investors (perhaps even FDI) and businesses who want to be associated with these efficient and well planned communities. Talent will be attracted to join these new job opportunities; more talent will be needed and perhaps local educational institutions will be brought into this activity - not only for training to meet the needs of analyzing the big data generated by the smart city but also to investigate and undertake research on what these and future smart cities need; how to create them better and other related research in support of smart region planning and execution. With these institutions involved, more talent is created and attracted to be involved in the local smart community activities. Some of these will be highly innovative and creative people benefitting from the smart technologies available in the smart community. They might even incubate homegrown businesses as start-ups, creating innovative products and services that can be commercialized and exported abroad, bringing further wealth and prosperity to the area. These benefits and increased prosperity can now be shared among the disadvantaged, disenfranchised, the elderly and single mothers and young children. Those disadvantaged in a smart city should be able to benefit from available digital training and become digitally included, offering some new opportunities for them and their children. I have seen this in the Knowledge Squares in Rio and even in smaller locations such as Riverside, California.
With a smart city as a platform you can begin to get onto the pathway to a higher level of community-wide engagement; bringing education, thought leadership and public policy into the game. Ultimately we will want to see these ideas entrenched into public policies so that plans, budgets and community wide acceptance and continuous improvement become part of this exercise. With all of these elements in place, I dare say the marketers of the community better step up and promote the city to attract even further investment, talent and jobs to this smart community.
But at this point, I would suggest it goes beyond the concept of "smart". It has been said by the Mayor of Stratford, Canada that you have to be a Smart City to become an Intelligent Community. Where the city transforms from smart to Intelligent is another topic for debate, but it clearly goes beyond the infrastructure, analysis of big data and begins to get into the attitude, culture and philosophy of true city-building along with its citizens that makes it become intelligent. But it has to start somewhere - and I would say that it all starts with the smart city. Empty Hype? Not at all: a great platform upon which to build upon."
This bracing question is posed on the Web site of The Economist, and visitors are invited to vote "yes" or "no" as well as to post their own comments. The voting closed with a hair-thin 54/46 victory for "no," which must be demoralizing for the brilliant technology companies promoting Smart City solutions.
I was one of the "no" votes. Smart Cities are not empty hype. But I suspect the current split decision reflects an uncomfortable truth: that the hype-to-reality ratio is pretty high.
Smart Cities are about using a new generation of cheap, powerful sensors, data storage and software to automate cities, in the same way we have automated factories over the past decades. They are about using information and communications technology (ICT) to do more with less. Processes that once operated in the shadows become visible and measurable, which lets cities make better choices. Everything happens faster and more reliably, which makes constituents happy. Costs fall permanently because more efficient processes need fewer people to run them.
It's all valuable. It's just not the revolution that some claim it to be.
The revolution lies in taking the next step – in setting out on the path to become an Intelligent Community. Here, the goal is to do more with more. Intelligent Communities use ICT to generate more economic energy in the form of new employment from new employers and new industries. They work to break down social and cultural barriers that hold back part of their populations, allowing the benefits of a knowledge-based economy to spread far and wide. They even use ICT to strength, preserve and extend the culture of communities – that invisible glue that binds together individuals into a whole and makes a place into a home.
I would go so far as to say that Smart Cities are about adapting to limits – to shrunken municipal budgets, lower ambitions, and a vision of the future less prosperous than today. Intelligent Communities are about envisioning a future limited only by our imaginations and our ambitions for the place we live, work and raise the next generation. Municipal leaders need to respect the limits of the present. But those limits should never be permitted to define the future.
"Going home." The phrase resonates at so many levels every time I hear it. Most recently the American president, Obama, used it, referring to the final place to which Nelson Mandela had been called upon his passing in Johannesburg, South Africa. After a remarkable nine and one-half decades, nearly three of them in jail, a lonely struggle and, in the end, a miraculous transformation from an old tribalism to enlightened national community, Mandela set us on a course which remains one part aspirational and one part achieved. With his work on Earth now finished, said the young American president, he had been called home. "As we all shall be," he added. In 2013, no doubt as it was in 1320, Home is the word we all embrace for its emotional composition. It is both refuge and, yet for many, still an elusive aspiration.
At the moment Mandela exited, you can be sure that a long, long way away, the polite, ebullient students of Taoyuan County's Chung Ping elementary school, a celebrated rural school full of great teachers and digital tools, were also headed home as the day's final bell rang. As I witnessed when visiting in the Spring, a final bow to the teacher ends the day and children file out in an orderly (well, kind of orderly) fashion. These children too go home – in this case to their parents - knowing that they will rise again the next morning in one of the world's Top7 Intelligent Communities and in a country, Taiwan, that in 2013 claimed for the second time in seven years the world's best example of our collective future. In June Taichung was named Intelligent Community of the Year. It was the type of place Mandela had in mind for his own nation's communities, including Nelson Mandela Bay, a 2009 ICF selection.
As 2013 posts its final grade, I can report that in terms of its cities and towns; communities and cultures, it was a year of progress. The Mandela vision of one world moved one inch closer to reality. It was a year when the notion of "enlightened tribalism" was further embraced. Thanks to the work of Intelligent Community leaders like Mayors van Gijzel, Halloran and Hau Lung-bin, Taipei is to Eindoven what Waterloo is to Suwon. Irrespective of culture or language, the identification of a like-minded city, with similar aspirations and policies shaped by five basic indicators, has produced a new form of global governance and cooperation. One of the Intelligent Community Forum Foundation's major achievements of the year, its "Connections" program, allows communities with much in common to build upon their intelligence and capacities.
If you set aside the policy papers, city council debates, legal battles over municipal fiber ownership and the circular confusion over how to best teach people in an era when "knowledge" has burst through the retaining walls, and what we need to know is challenged, these communities, working together, offer cohesion and promise. Cohesion and promise formed around a new set of guidelines and realities. In each you will hear "quality of life" spoken of as if a right; "access" debated not as something that might be useful, but rather in terms of how fast it can be installed, and "culture" being examined not merely as tourism or a Sunday visit to the local museum, but as a natural resource with economic development and gross domestic local product output as its goal. While these ideas have been in the air since 1995, the Intelligent Community movement has brought them squarely into the discussion - and into the imagination of a new corps of leaders and thinkers. 2013 was a watershed year.
Our year began in January, when seven communities were designated as exemplars for all to look toward for guidance. The Top7 of 2013 continue to construct admirable home towns. One of them, Toronto, even demonstrated in '13 that a futuristic community can go forward with a backward-looking leader. In Canada's other Intelligent Community, Stratford, the future was in sight and the mayor led the way. In the two Taiwanese cities among the year's elite seven (Taoyuan and Taichung) the persuasive strength of their mayors showed the rest of the population the way home. Columbus (USA), Oulu (Finland) and Tallinn (Estonia) were examples of places where, without a public fuss or dust-ups, foundations were laid for the future, even as headwinds challenged the journey. An Intelligent Community is one that is "future proof." Columbus created nearly 30,000 jobs even as America struggled to regain its economic footing; Oulu continued to build an entrepreneurial engine, despite having a limited history of doing so; and Tallinn (as it had done in 1991) pushed its chips to the center of the table again, this time betting that education would be the dog that would hunt, and hunt well for its citizens, in the long-term.
Not all of our alumni communities thrive, but all continue to imagine they will and keep at it. In 2009, Nelson Mandela Bay became the last Intelligent Community named from South Africa. In its annual report, the city reported 100% compliance with both fresh water standards and the provisioning of electricity. It also created nearly 1,600 new jobs. But it has not been easy. It reported too that its persistent challenges include a need to "develop a shared, long-term vision and a mission to provide a strategic focus for long-term planning." It has a 28% unemployment rate. But it is free at last, and that is not a small thing. It is also an Intelligent Community, because in 2009 it set itself a task of getting home, no matter what the price, and showed us the plan and its tenacity. We can say it holds its own because it knows that now is not the time to let go of its future. After all, this is a place named after a giant.
The most inspired words of the year came spontaneously from the Keynote speaker at our Institute's annual Symposium at Walsh University. As he patiently explained to a rapt audience why his Aakash II computer is creating the next one billion mobile users, Datawind CEO Suneet Singh Tuli told his story of how the device was created, and how it has begun turning India and the developed world inside/out and upside/down. His vision is Apple's with a social conscience. Aakash may do for the three billion underserved what the iPad has done for those of us grateful to be among the over-privileged. It will make a profit - and much more. "I am not by nature an optimist," he began, "but listening to the people in this room and in this movement, I can say that there is no longer any room for pessimism."
For these words alone, 2013 was a year to cherish. Pessimists need not apply in 2014.
Over my career I have spent a considerable amount of time in hotel rooms. I am currently writing this from the Hotel Principe di Savoia in Milan looking at their hotel website and wondering why I am facing a 27 Euro per day charge for Internet services in my hotel room. Like you, I have been surprised how inconsistent the hotel world is about providing access to the Internet for their customers. Generally around the world it could be free in the hotel lounge or for around $15-$20 per day, it could be made available in the comfort of your hotel room. But when hotels charge hundreds of dollars per night as it is, couldn't they at least throw in the basics of connectivity? They provide basic television but charge to see newly released movies. That is fair. But isn't it ironic that the most expensive hotels like the Intercontinental will charge you $20 per day but the least expensive hotels such as the Hilton Garden Inns will offer it for free? It's a minefield of variances out there; some offer it for free in the main lounge, while others offer it free everywhere, either as WiFi or as a dedicated line in the room. Some, as in Tallinn, Estonia, even provide free hi-grade Skype in the room, complete with a Skype device. But others charge for a service that might cost the hotelier less than $1 per day and could otherwise help them to market their brands better, offer a relatively inexpensive part of the hotel infrastructure as part of the basic hotel charge, or simply motivate them to get into the new world and stop gouging for it.
When cities have found a way to provide free WiFi to its visitors and citizens, why do hotels still charge their customers for Internet? It's simple actually; in a world of declining occupancy, hotels believe they need to charge for everything they could beyond their base room rental as an added source of revenue. Sound familiar? Airlines now charge for baggage in a lucrative move that added millions to their bottom line (but are hated for this by their customers and will rue the day when it comes back to bite them), so why not charge for Internet access in hotels? Telephone revenues for hotels have virtually disappeared with the advent of cell phones. Perhaps hotels might try charging for bags next or you could offer to swap the expensive toiletries for free Internet access (only kidding Mr. Hotelier!).
For Road Warriors who might average 50 hotel nights a year, the Internet charges could wind up ending up to be between $500 and $1000 per year. This extra charge can be offset with personal Internet devices, such as Rocket sticks or by other ways to work around it. Sprint, for instance, offers a small credit card sized MiFi mobile Internet device that allows multiple users to access the Internet. It is also possible to ask for rooms on lower floors closer to the lounge where free access is assured. Or join the hotel chain's loyalty card which in most cases provides regular users with free access as a loyalty card feature. Another option is to purchase a relatively inexpensive data plan before leaving your home country. And many hotels offer Internet for free in exchange for embedding ads and cookies, which provide income to the hotels.
While most Internet access is useful for checking emails, many travelers are bringing their entire home and office platforms with them and require more substantial broadband access for data transfers, social networking and watching videos, such as over Netflix. As business travelers need to access home and business environments, hotels feel that they can charge for this necessity, but are damaging their reputations and bottom lines, aiming for the short term gain instead of the long-term loyalty through goodwill. But some hotel chains are getting it. For instance, Hong Kong-based Shangri-La has decided to eliminate charges for Internet access altogether at all of its hotels, setting the bar for other luxury hotels to do the same. And it appears that customers are being heard. Hotel Chatter offers an interesting new 2013 Infographic that will quickly size up the competition when it comes to free or inexpensive Internet in hotels. According to this report, 64% of hotels now provide free basic services. That is a huge improvement over previous years. Hotels are realizing that it helps their brand; helps in keeping the customer closer to the hotel and more likely to use the bar and restaurant; as well as more likely to promote the hotel or chain to their friends and colleagues as a result.
But why charge for this at all? The cost to set up and maintain Internet access is surely not as expensive as setting up the hot water system or the hotel air conditioning system. These aren't currently being charged extra for. Mr. Hotelier, if the expense to set up the system and maintain routers is the excuse, then don't offer it at all, because that is a lame excuse for the expense. In today's world, whether you are a hotel or a city contemplating the provision of Internet access for your customers or citizens, wireless Internet access is a basic utility like water and sewers, and roads and sidewalks. The Mayor of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada is proud to announce that he would not charge his citizens to walk on his sidewalks and so they shouldn't be charged for access to basic Internet services. Besides, so many municipal services and utilities are now being accessed by WiFi, that it would be relatively easy and inexpensive for cities, just as hotels are now learning, to offer basic Internet free of charge. Yes, if you want to watch your latest Netflix on your laptop and not pay the hotel for the latest movie on their TV set, you should perhaps be charged for the upgraded premium service. But not be charged for the basic level of Internet services. Here at the Hotel Principe di Savoia, one of the most luxurious hotels in Milan, I am offered just that - I did not mind using the basic Internet service at 256 kbps to check on my emails for free. If I needed more at 20 mbps, I could purchase it for 27 Euros for 24 hours. Or I could simply go to the nearest Starbucks, which have mastered the art of the use of the Internet to attract and sustain their business. In fact, Starbucks recently announced free unlimited Wi-Fi service and electricity to customers at all "company-owned stores" in the United States. The loyalty of customers paying $5 for coffee and $4 for a biscuit more than offsets their costs for Internet and electricity for their laptops.
Applications in hotels which offer entertainment have usually contributed to the bottom line of these hotels. However, since many hotel guests are beginning to revel entirely in their own mobile applications, they completely ignore any and all hotel offerings. This may change with new applications and business models on the horizon that may change the way we currently experience our hotel stays. In this case change is inevitable and may be good, unless you are not a road warrior with all of the technical devices and applications.
In anticipation of this, some hotels are now offering new devices and services in their rooms. I recently was in a hotel room with an ultra-high speed broadband based Smart TV which allowed me to use everything from broadcast television to the Web, with video-on-demand while I could do my emails at the same time on the same device ( and more), without the need for me to bring my briefcase. A Dutch chain called CitizenM provides Samsung tablets in each guest room, free video-on-demand TV as well as providing a music library. It also controls the alarm clock, temperature control, blinds and lighting. Even the legendary Peninsula Hotel has installed customizable tablets in the language of your choice directly connected to the concierge and all other services in the hotel as well as to an entertainment system comprising a Blu-ray, LED television flat-screen, with extensive music, VOIP, HD and current 3-D movies, all requiring ultra-high speed broadband, which guests may be more likely to pay to experience.
As cities and industries transform, so will hotels. The trend is towards free basic services with optional high speed broadband charges for all the new devices and applications. Like you, I am looking for the day that hotels don't charge for these basic services so that at least we can check our email. However in the future, emails will likely no longer be the way we communicate and I bet that next generation communications through social media and other evolving communications apps will require access to ultra-high speed broadband. At that point we may see the debate grow once again but this time for access to ultra-high speed broadband as a way to communicate.

Martha Stewart Holidays Double Craft Punch Hot Chocolate
Gifted by Martha Stewart Crafts
Reviewed by Maria Nerius
The double punch means that this punch also embosses. I know a few people who weren't too sure about this punch as it seemed the punched out shape got stuck in the punch. There is a reason for that and reading the instructions on the box solves that problem pronto. Let me quote the experts!
"Many paper crafters are familiar with the traditional craft punch, which punches out a shape. When you insert paper and flip the tool over, you see the paper you are going to punch. When you press the lever on the tool, you hear a snap as the tool cuts the paper, and the punched paper piece pops out of the tool.
Some Martha Stewart Crafts™ punches are what we call double punches – meaning they not only punch out the shape, but they also punch or emboss additional detail in the interior of the shape. Because the punch is performing this additional function, it works a little differently.
When you insert the paper and flip the tool over, you do not necessarily see your paper. When you press the lever on the tool, you don't feel and hear the same snap that you do with a regular craft punch. Instead, a double punch gives you more of a crunching sound and feel as it cuts the paper. In addition, our double punches are designed so the punched piece stays attached to the paper by a couple of tiny tabs. If this didn't happen, the punched piece could become stuck inside the tool. You can remove the punched piece from the paper by gently pulling it out with your fingers, or by cutting the tiny tabs with a craft knife or scissors.
The double punch, therefore, behaves a little differently than the regular craft punches we are used to, and as a result, you get a punched piece with greater detail than a regular craft punch produces.
How do you know if you have a double punch? Look at the design on the punch. If you see additional detail inside the shape, it is a double punch. Examples of Martha Stewart Crafts™ double punches include the scalloped heart, skull and bones, diamond ring, elephant, safety pin, and embossed owl."
I love the double punches! And I own the scalloped heart, elephant, owl, and sand dollar. But I have to be honest and say when I first started using them I was using my fine tip tweezers to get the embossed die cut out. Unlike my friends who just thought something was wrong with the punch design, I went directly to the source, well the website anyway! I find the die cut easily removes itself from the tiny tags and no additional trimming or cutting is needed. There is something extra special about the added touch of embossing to a punched out shape. And how clever was the designer of this style of punches! Go Double Punches! Keep 'em coming, Martha!

Confirmed case of Eastern Equine Encephalitis
Published: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 at 4:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, September 29, 2009 at 4:27 p.m.
OCALA The Marion County Health Department has confirmed a positive case locally of Eastern Equine Encephalitis.
The case is the second of the year and both were in horses. The latest case was found in a horse in the Silver Springs area, according to a news release.
Eastern Equine Encephalitis is a mosquito-borne virus that can be transmitted to humans and horses through the bite of an infected mosquito.
The health department advises the public to remain diligent in mosquito protection efforts. For more information, call the department at 629-0137.

Large Larvae found in side the Rasberry fruit.
Raspberry fruit being invaded.
On July 4th, we found a large larvae inside some of the fruit. Along with this, we have found on the fruit some small egg bunches and on other fruit a fairly firm 1/2 silver shell on some the other fruit but could not find anything underneath. We live in NW Washington.
A raspberry is a small object, so by definition, the larva inside could not be "large". Fruit flies have been rampant in the region for several years and their larva can be found in many berries. Those larva can be 1/8 inch long and may look large for the size of a berry.
Fruit fly larva can be coaxed out of berries by putting the fruit in the fridge or in the freezer for some hours and then the larva can be removed with a toothpick.
The egg bunches could have been laid by stink bugs, and I don't know what a firm 1/2 silver shell is, perhaps you could re-word that.
With exception of the things that look like mini-centipedes(no idea what they are) I really don't care about consuming bugs in my boysen/rasp/blackberries ...as long as I don't get any parasites I count it as extra free protein :)
Do you spray any insecticides? I was thinking about it but I don't want to kill beneficial pollinators since flowers don't come-up all at the same time.
Any pictures?
Wow, you guys really eat berries with bugs in them and berries that you pulled bugs out of? Idk if maybe I'm a sissy, but that seems crazy.
I drop the bug infested berries and hope the birds and squirrels eat those instead of the good ones on the plant.
I gave some old guy/neighbor a strawberry a couple days ago and noticed a big bug hole in it as I handed it to him and mentioned it, and he gladly accepted it anyways and then sucked the larva out of the hole and into his mouth and spit it out, then ate the berry. I thought it was hilarious. and gross. and completely unnecessary as I had a couple pounds of clean berries that he was welcome to.

The company that sold a weapon used in a Christmas Eve shooting that left two Rochester-area volunteer firefighters dead is being sued by the victims.
The semi-automatic rifle used by William Spengler Jr. on Dec. 24, 2012 to kill two West Webster firefighters and wound two others was purchased at a Gander Mountain store by his neighbor Dawn Nguyen. Spengler couldn't buy the gun because he was a felon.
Gun shows have caused concerns and triggered protests in Saratoga Springs. But the events have been pared back for the coming year...
In the wake of last December's tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, gun safety advocates have grown increasingly concerned with Saratoga Springs City Center's continuing to host gun shows.
Citizens turned up the heat Wednesday on Saratoga Springs City Center, pressing officials to prove that the group holding gun shows there is properly insured.
New York's Gun Tipline led authorities to a man who tried to sell a deadly weapon over Facebook.
The Cuomo Administration is making $65,000 in state grant money available to shooting ranges across New York. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in cooperation with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Saratoga County has developed a Shooting Range Small Grants Program.
Second Amendment rights advocates, who have held rallies in Albany recently, are not the only group upset with portions of the state's recently enacted gun law. Some people with mental illnesses believe the law unfairly stigmatizes them. Capitol Correspondent Karen DeWitt reports.
New York State's response to recent mass shootings in Newtown, Connecticut and Webster, New York comes in the form of the toughest gun laws in the Nation.
Governor Andrew Cuomo's gun law package features many measures he presented in his State of the State address. Budd Schroeder is Chairman of the board of directors of SCOPE - the Shooters Committee on Political Action, which has 200 affiliated gun clubs across New York State. Schroeder thinks Cuomo has overstepped his leadership position.

Hey all, I am a witty, funny, and smart guy looking for someone who can be honest with me and appreciate me for being me.
I am not really sure how to describe myself without sounding odd, but here goes: I am a great guy.

If you put your trust in me, I am not going to break it, whether it is something between me and another person or just trusting me in general. I enjoy doing a lot of activities and events, and try to make the best of everything. In my mind, why let the little things get you upset or down?

Have you taken advantage of our computer training classes? If not, we have plenty to interest you in the month of February. Aside from our regular classes, we have a couple of special topics. First, if you've ever wondered how an online auction works, join us on Monday, February 7th, at 6:30 P.M. for "Navigating eBay," as we demonstrate the ins and outs of this popular website. At 10:30 A.M. on Tuesday, February 8th, learn how to be a safer surfer with "Keep Safe on the Internet." All of our computer classes are free, but registration is required, so be sure and visit us or call to secure a spot. Don't miss out on learning more about these important topics!
So you're probably wondering what the title of this post refers to. A yogi is a guy who practices yoga and a yoginini is a girl who practices yoga. I stumbled across the terms last week, when I was reading a book on yoga for teens and kids. Our newest addition to teen programming, Namaste, is a weekly teen yoga program that is great for those of you who have never practiced yoga. It's simple, relaxing and will release that pent-up tension after a long day @ school. We meet on Tuesdays @ 4:30 pm. Be sure to wear loose, comfortable (and modest!) clothing Yoga is a lot of fun and a great way to relax and stretch your sore muscles.
Once again, the Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center will be on site in the Community Room on Monday, January 31st, from 1:00 to 5:30 P.M. to received blood donations from the public. Walk-ins are accepted, but it is encouarged to sign up ahead of time for an appointment at either the reference or children's desks or at the Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center webiste here. Don't miss out on this opportunity to give the gift of life!
Have you resolved to become a little more organized in this new year? If so, join us on Tuesday, January 25th, from 1:00 to 2:00 P.M. in the Training Lab, as repeat presenter and professional organizer Ellen Delap, CPO, shows us all how to make use of the Internet in our efforts to get organized. Spots are limited, so be sure to register by giving us a call or paying us a visit on the second floor. Don't miss out on this free and informative session!
UPDATE: The Tuesday, January 25th, session is full. Anyone still wishing to attend may register for a recently added session, scheduled for Tuesday, February 1st, from 3:30 to 4:30 P.M.
Join me on Tuesday afternoons @ 4:30pm in the Children's Activity room for a gentle and relaxing yoga practice!! We'll start out nice and easy, learning the basic movements and breathing techniques of yoga, as we strenghten our minds and bodies. This is not designed to be an exercise class or weight loss program. I'm focusing on enjoying yoga as a relaxing and stress-free afterschool program. Yoga is great for unwinding after a long day, stretching tired muscles and relaxing the mind.

Sock Calculator, do you have link?
stephanieknitsSeptember 14, 2008
12 years ago, when I decided I wasn't going to knit socks, there was a sock calculator that allowed you to enter your measurements and gauge and would calculate out sock variables for you. Now I want to make socks and made one pair last year. I want to join a bimonthly sock group, but I need to be able to quickly calculate adjustments on socks because most patterns don't fit a size 10W. I'm thinking the sock calculator will help me, but it no longer comes up when I do a google search. Do you have a link? Perhaps you have a better idea? I'm ready to hear it! Thanks!
Maybe, this is what you are looking for?

It's been nearly three months since my "Life On Less" post so we figured it was worth doing a quick update (and collecting more great ideas from you guys on how we can all save a buck here and there). You might remember that four months ago we learned I'd be bringing home four fewer benjamins each month, and we're pleased to report – thanks to many of your suggestions – that we've been able to stick to all but one of the money saving tactics I outlined in the previous post: stop buying music on iTunes, cancel my gym membership, watch movies at home and cash in some credit card points. Here's how it all went down:
1. iTunes out, Pandora in: Several of you mentioned Pandora.com in your comments and boy am I grateful. I love it! You just input some of your favorite artists or songs and it builds a custom radio station filled with similar tunes. You can even thumbs-up or thumb-down songs to help Pandora learn your musical tastes over time. It's completely free, though – if you're like me – you might hit your 40 hour monthly limit pretty quickly. But the good news is that it's only $0.99 to get unlimited access (which is a heckova lot cheaper than my old iTunes habit). I'm totally addicted, and I have you guys to blame/thank.
2. Sayonara Netflix, Konnichiwa Redbox: Again, at your recommendation we realized there was a less expensive option than our $15 per month Netflix bill. With Redbox, you can rent movies for a $1/night meaning even two movies per weekend only costs you $8 per month. And we're not even usually that movie crazy. I think we've probably spent $6 total on movie rentals all summer thanks to Redbox. Sure, the movie selection is a bit narrower (note: do NOT rent "Knowing" with Nicholas Cage) but it still gets new releases and keeps us plenty entertained. Plus, we saved so much moolah with Red Box that we splurged on one trip to the theatre. I let Sherry drag me to The Proposal. Does that mean good husband bonus points for life?
3. Credit Card Points = Cash… and Magazines!: When we cashed in our stored up credit card points back in May for an awesome chunk of change, we suddenly found Bank of America offering us some free magazine subscriptions too. Usually we brush those off, but when the list showed several that Sherry and I routinely peruse at Barnes & Noble we said "sign me up." So while this isn't saving us any money directly, it has meant fewer trips to chill at B&N, which means avoiding the temptation to buy books… and cookies from the cafe. Plus we drop off all of our magazines at a local book store when we're done with them (they offer them for free to their customers) so it's a great way for us to read them without feeling wasteful.
4. Tapping the Brakes on My Gym Membership: Ok, so this is the one I didn't follow through on. After a few weeks off I realized how much a midday workout did for stress release so I caved and kept my membership to the YMCA going. Though my workload has kept lunchtime trips to the gym at a minimum, unfortunately, I guess I'm not strong enough to let this one go. So instead…
5. Restaurant.com Is Our New BFF: Since we're still amateurs in the kitchen, it's tough for us to give up eating out entirely. But befriending Restaurant.com has certainly made dining out every once in a while much easier on our wallets. They sell a bunch of $25 gift cards for only $10 which means (with a usual minimum purchase of $35) we can save $15 on a meal out. Not bad, but we happened to snag a handful of coupons during a 80% off sale they were having, meaning those precious coupons were only $2! That equals a $23 savings each time we use one! And I recently learned they're doing that promotion again through Aug 13th. Just enter "PORTION" upon checkout to score a $25 restaurant gift card for just two bucks! And there's no waiting for the gift certificates to ship or worrying about them getting lost in the mail- just pay and print them right from your computer. Genius.
So that's our update. What about you all? Did you uncover any new money saving tricks that you can teach the rest of us? Have you been able to stick to your money saving schemes or are you still being a tiny bit "flexible" like me with my gym membership? Our wallets thank you in advance for all the great ideas!

I like this saving money series! Everyone has such great ideas.
I actually read a few good tips the other day on Oprah's website of all places… http://www.oprah.com/slideshow/money/personalfinance/slideshow1_ss_omag_200803_saving
I also love the website http://www.mint.com. In order to save money, first you must know what you're spending… this is a great resource for fixing your budget.
Keep the tips coming, I love it!
Thanks for the tip on Restaurant.com. There are only a couple restaurants we frequent that are on their list, but it's a great deal for those.
Redbox seems OK for mainstream movies, but really limited on other movies and TV. I think my Netflix queue is longer than Redbox's whole list :-)
Pandora is my saving grace at work when my iTunes collection gets a little tired. Lovelovelove it!
(hm, just noticed your disclaimer below the comment box. not sorry I missed any drama over the last crazy month at the bungalow…but i am sorry for any shiz-at you had to deal with–boo!)
My husband and I have started shopping at the $.99 Only store for groceries, including fruits and veggies! We have several stores near us (SoCal) and some are nicer than others. They always have the staples we need and sometimes we find awesome things like soy chorizo and Numi teas. A few weeks ago we were able to spend $125 on two weeks of groceries! It felt awesome :)
I just rented Knowing from RedBox today…wish I had read this before. I haven't watched it yet though, but at least it was only $1! All great tips, I'm going to check out Restaurant.com and see if they have anything good for our area!
Speaking of restaurants – http://www.rewardsnetwork.com Register the credit cards you spend with to receive up to 20% cash back anytime you dine at participating restaurants! (including tax and tip!) It is free to join and you automatically get the cash back each time you pay with your registered card at a participating restaurant. AND you can download the RN Dining iPhone app free through the App Store so you always know which restaurants to go to! :)
You guys rock! I too am a saver! I'm 26, my husband is 33, and we just left the Northern VA area to begin our PhDs in Florida. We were able to put a large down payment on our first home due to my ability to manage money well. I've been "couponing" for the past 2 years and have saved so much money. For instance, I went to the grocery store on Sunday and spent $31; however, I SAVED $58.
How did I do it??? I combine my coupons with the sales which are at the rock bottom price. I started learning about this through this website: http://www.thegrocerygame.com. It really helped me to learn how to shop wisely. It cost me $5 a month, but was worth EVERY Penny.
Then, I found http://www.becentsable.net which has "The Grocery Gathering." There are so many bloggers out there devoted to posting the sale prices w/ the coupons you have to help you get the rock bottom price at your local grocery store. These bloggers are also GREAT about finding the printable coupons on-line. All you have to do is click and print!
My husband brags about me to all of his friends due to the money that I'm able to save. My first year alone, (shopping at Harris Teeter in expensive Alexandria, VA) I saved over $2,500. It feels really great! :)
**P.S. We're low-fat eaters who enjoy lots of whole grains, fruits, and veggies. We ate for cheap purchasing the good stuff! :) E-mail me if you want more info!!!
If you can delay your gratification, the library is an awesome resource for DVDs. We get DVDs for one week at a time for free. You can request items in advance. New releases can take a while, but we just put our names on the waitlist.
I second the not renting "The Knowing."
Most pointless movie ever.
I stumbled upon your blog a few months ago and have been addicted since! Can I say…I love you guys! I just printed off $340 worth of restaurant gift cards for $27.40 on restaurant.com. We plan on using our first one on Monday…and giving away several to family and friends. What a great deal for not much moolah! Thank you so much! Keep up your great work and inspiration.
Thank for the heads up on the code! We got $80 worth of cards for 6.60 I believe :) Three were regular places we love, and one was a FANCY French place we are dying to try!!
You can google 'redbox codes', and get a list of free rental codes. I usually do this before I head there, and then I email myself a bunch of codes and pull it up (on my phone) when I'm there. Usually it doesn't take me more then 3 codes to get one that works, so I don't piss anyone off behind me. That was our solution to our Netfliks. DVDONME and BREAKROOM work once on each credit card number.
How did you get pandora for $0.99/month? I have been listening to it for free for ages, but when I just looked at the upgrade page it says $36 a year. Thoughts or suggestions?
You should try grooveshark – my husband swears it is better than Pandora. grooveshark.com
Ha! I third the DO NOT rent the Knowing! Hubby and I watched it not long ago (it was out on Redbox, so we Netflixed it) and thought it started out ok, and then it got worse and we kept watching it because it had to get better, have a point or something, but it DIDN'T!!!!! Glad we're not the only ones who thought that!
Aw, you didn't like Knowing? I reallly liked it. :)
Thanks for the tip about Pandora.com! Love it!
There are usually rental codes for redbox that makes them free for 1 night!!! Just google them.
Thanks for the tip on Pandora — my hubby LOVES to listen to internet radio and he'll totally dig that you can customize your own station.
PS – Thanks for the update, too! You guys are a great inspiration on how you can live happily and still save money.
Sherry & John,
Thanks for the update on your budget and the savings tips. Out of curiosity- do you guys mention in reviews if a company is a sponsor of the website or if they've given you a discount/freebie in exchange for a mention in one of your posts? I love to read your various reviews and am thankful your advertisers exist- but it's always appreciated when that information can be taken into account. Just curious. :)
Sherry & John,
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question. I studied communications and did debate throughout college so I'm programmed to ask why/how people come to conclusions. I will admit in asking this same question to many other bloggers- I didn't get a response, my question was removed, or they did admit that many of their reviews are in exchange for freebies of hefty discounts that they received. Way to go John & Sherry! Thanks for totally rocking!
Fairly new to your (ahhhh-mazing) site, and love it! Thanks for the money saving tips…as for music have you heard of grooveshark? I used to be a pandora-goer at work, but have since switched to grooveshark. The music is not downloadable, but it basically streams tons of mp3s and they have just about every song…check it out. (ps: you don't have to join to make a playlist and listen!)
Oh and thanks for all the diy tips…I'm going to try to be ambitious!
I only want to comment on "Knowing"…I loved it and urge others who haven't seen it to see it for yourself then decide.
OMG – thanks so much for this post! I just got two $10 off of Fuel Pizza for $1.60 total! Guess where hubs and I are going for dinner tonight and tomorrow night? lol
Love your site! : )
I always unplug all of my appliances (microwave, toaster, coffee maker, etc.). Pretty much everything besides the fridge! I also keep my TV unplugged and any lamps I use on a less than daily basis. I am convinced that this little effort saves me almost $20-30 a month on my electric bill!
