A risk factor is something that increases your likelihood of getting a disease or condition.
It is possible to develop obesity with or without the risk factors listed below. However, the more risk factors you have, the greater your likelihood of becoming obese. If you have a number of risk factors, ask your doctor what you can do to reduce your risk.
Risk factors for obesity include:
The following dietary habits can increase your risk of obesity:
Children may also be at risk for becoming obese if they do not eat their regular meals with their family.
Not getting enough sleep may put children at risk for obesity. How much sleep in enough for kids? Here are general recommendations:
If you don't get enough physical activity you are likely to burn fewer calories than you eat each day, thus increasing your risk of becoming obese. For children, too little exercise and spending too much time watching TV or playing on the computer can increase their risk of gaining weight and becoming obese.
Working shifts at different times of the day and night increases your risk of becoming obese.
Certain medications and hormonal imbalances, such as hypothyroid and Cushing's disease, increase your risk of obesity.
If you are a smoker and want to quit, you may worry that quitting will increase your weight. Keep in mind that you can overcome this weight gain by reducing how many calories you consume and by exercising more. Overall, the health benefits of quitting smoking far exceed the risk of gaining weight.
If you are pregnant, smoking may increase your child's risk of becoming obese.
The incidence of obesity more than doubles between the ages of 20 and 55. However, this may be related to a decrease in activity levels. A recent study found that within 30 years, over half of a large group of normal-weight men and women became overweight.
Rare hereditary diseases may increase the risk of obesity.
In addition, obesity may run in families. For example, if parents are overweight, their child may be at a higher risk of being overweight, as well. Both genetic and lifestyle factors could play a role in the child's excess weight.
There is a higher incidence of obesity among certain races or ethnic groups. In the US, obesity more African American women and Hispanic women than white women. In US men, Hispanic men are most often affected. For children, being African American, Hispanic, or Native American increases their risk of obesity.
Harsh physical punishment or abuse during childhood may increase the risk of obesity in adults. There is a higher incidence of obesity in adults who were raised in such environments.
Women with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are at increased risk of developing obesity.

A slang term for marijuana. Originally said to have been made by some dyslexic guy who meant to say Mary Jane, but ended up saying Jary Mane instead. The newly created word has since become the most popular slang for marijuana, and has been respelled to Jerry Maine.
Yeah, give me some Jerry Maine.
What? You mean Mary Jane?
No, you fucking retard. Give me Jerry Maine.
What? You mean Mary Jane?

Our future?
Last updated at 12:15, Thursday, 26 April 2012
WEST Cumbria's future has been mapped out for the next 15 years.
Some 3,000 new jobs and a £90 billion nuclear investment are outlined in a draft Economic Blueprint described by partners in Britain's Energy Coast as a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity" with far-reaching consequences for the local economy.
Their key message? Act now and act decisively.
Included are new contracts for construction, business and professional services, scientific and technical activities as well as secondary spending to boost the hotel, food and accommodation sectors.
Capturing as much of the massive investment value as possible locally is crucial while also creating an environment which encourages innovation and supporting an enterprise culture where local people can grasp opportunity.
Nuclear new-build and related investment could potentially create 3,000 jobs, the blueprint says – "demonstrating that this investment is critical to the continued economic health of the area."
"The aim," says the West Cumbria Economic Blueprint, "is to build on the area's unique nuclear experience and global position to develop a dynamic, wealth-creating sustainable economic future for today, tomorrow and future generations."
With a programme of actions drawn up to help accelerate business innovation and growth, it stresses: "For West Cumbria to reach its full economic potential, we recognise the important contribution that good quality schools and healthcare, sufficient choice and quality of housing, a modern transport infrastructure and a supportive planning policy framework plays.
"It's critical West Cumbria offers the best-quality infrastructure to attract visitors and retain people in the local economy... this will require investment in West Cumbria's schools, healthcare provision and housing to ensure the area offers the best-in-class and can compete successfully for the investment
"This will involve equipping local businesses to access contract, providing the right level of skills and expertise to enable local people to access employment opportunities; providing land and property in the right locations for businesses looking for a local base; and enhancing transport and digital communications infrastructure to cope with increased demand.
"Investing in these areas will not only help to ensure West Cumbria benefits fully from decommissioning and new-build expenditure but that the infrastructure is in place which will make the area more competitive as a business location for the future.
"It will also involve supporting our business to ensure they are able to assess contract opportunities and benefit from this investment enabling them to create more high-value jobs as well as providing opportunities for delivering the economic regeneration of our principal town centres of Whitehaven and Workington.
"These areas of activity will need to be supported by targeted investment in key infrastructure and the assets of the area."
Here are a few of the keynotes:
RETAIL employment is forecast to grow in West Cumbria linked to the wider growth in the local economy and demand for convenience and comparison products.
"Increased employment opportunities and the attraction of additional households to live and work in West Cumbria will enhance demand for retail products and services."
THERE will be a growing demand for opportunities for businesses operating in the accommodation, food and drink sectors linked to major investment in new-build and decommissioning.
"With an increasing presence of multi-national firms operating from West Cumbria, there will be a growing market for business visitors and associated expenditure."
BY NO means a certainty in West Cumbria. However, if the development does proceed it will generate an unprecedented level of investment in the area, creating significant levels of both direct and indirect employment which will have land and commercial property implications.
By raising the international profile of West Cumbria, it also has the potential to stimulate investment and growth in other linked sectors of the economy.
Planned investment in the nuclear sector peaks around 2022/23 and then declines.
Enabling more business to diversify is important. Over the next 15 years there will be a £90 billion investment in the decommissioning process at Sellafield – and potential for additional investment in nuclear new-build activity.
THE scale of planned investment in West Cumbria is unprecedented and there will be many new contract opportunities for local firms in the residential, leisure and commercial sectors. This will lead to more opportunities for construction-related employment. The strategy sets out to "deliver these investments alongside targeted action to develop an enterprise culture, workforce skills and job readiness will ensured that the whole community of West Cumbria benefits from the economic opportunities created.
WEST Cumbria's population is forecast to age over the period to 2027 and this will create additional demands and pressures on health and social care programmes. There will be additional job opportunities arising in the health and caring professions as a result of these important changes.
WITH a focus on supporting the development of specialist teaching and education facilities to support the whole community, there will be enhanced opportunities for employment in the education sector.
FOOD security is an issue of growing national significance and the capacity of West Cumbria to continue to supply food resources in the future will be a valuable commodity. Alongside this trend with the growing importance of the low-carbon agenda there is an opportunity to harness West Cumbria's land, water and forest resources to help to power low-carbon energy systems.
INVESTMENT in infrastructure will underpin business and job creation. The Port of Workington provides an international gateway to West Cumbria and can be a catalyst for growth.
THIS will be set up to implement the strategy as a focus for investment.
"It underlines a significant West Cumbria role in delivering the country's future needs at the same time as helping to deliver the government's low-carbon agenda.
"Tied in with all this is a strategy which aims to maximise investment in nuclear and energy infrastructure.
"This is said to represent a step change in collective aspiration, thinking and action to establish a catalyst for delivering positive economic benefits for all the people of West Cumbria, the wider county of Cumbria and the nation as a whole.
"It provides an opportunity to deliver over unprecedented investment value and over 3000 jobs in the next 15 years as well as doubling our contribution to UK GVA levels.
"It is designed to work from a position of commercial knowledge and the competitive advantage associated with West Cumbria's high-tech and productive economy.
"We will capture a substantial share of market growth in these dynamic sectors, benefiting not only the local area but also UK plc.
"However, these impacts are linked to the 'one off' investment in the nuclear sector, the impact of which will diminish beyond 2022/23.
"Responding to this challenge, we are also preparing our businesses now to play a leading role in the UK's emerging Clean Tech industries and advanced manufacturing sectors as well as capitalising on our continued specialist knowledge in the nuclear sector which is a saleable commodity to a global market.
"This will help to sustain the employment gains that will be achieved by 2022/23 as well as creating a more diverse business rate."
The blueprint goes on:
Without nuclear new-build or associated investment, the economy will contract by about 1,800 jobs by 2027.
Enabling more businesses to diversify will ensure the economy is sustained in the post-nuclear investment period.
There will be an opportunity for local companies to access international opportunities as well as a mechanism for knowledge transfer from Sellafield to the local business base.
Measures will be put in place in the short term to ensure that as much of the substantial investment in nuclear new-build and decommissioning is captured by local businesses as possible. This will involve working with nuclear and associated partners to ensure that research and innovation flows into the local supply chain making local businesses more competitive – particularly important at Sellafield which contains a wealth of applied technical knowledge and expertise – this will also involve working with partners to ensure that their social and economic commitments to West Cumbria are delivered fully.
And there will be an opportunity to provide new housing for West Cumbria's residents post the construction phrase.
The Blueprint has been drawn up by public and private sector partners to deliver the potential of Britain's Energy Coast.

Helpful Definition for: Book Binders & Book Printers
A person in Essex who fastens books together and puts covers on them is generally known as a bookbinder. The origination of book binding was in India. In the ancient era the holy sutras were copied with a metallic stylus on the palm leaves which were cut laterally into two pieces. Then the leaf was dried and ink was rubbed in the same. This would create a tint in the space. The completed leaves were named with numbers, and two long strings were threaded through each end through wooden boards. However, from the 5th century onwards the Western books were bound between hard covers, and the pages were prepared from parchment crumpled and stitched with strong cords. These cords were attached to the wooden boards and were protected with leather. Earlier the books were entirely handwritten using handmade tools, hence the sizes and styles varied significantly. As a result, each book was a unique creation. People who live their livelihoods by printing books are known as Book Printers in Essex. This profession has been now extended to print-press also. Book printing includes hard cover or soft cover books consuming a wide variety of binding categories. Apart from this, publishing software applications or some version of book printing software is often used also.

The Valrhona Jivara is created using Nacional cocoa, a Forastero-type cocoa from Ecuador, is a smooth and mild mannered milk chocolate with added malt. An easy eating sweet milk chocolate with a creamy texture and light finish.
Since 1922 the vocation of Valrhona has been to create exceptional gourmet chocolate, while respecting the artisan's know-how and fine French taste. Dedicated to quality, Valrhona selects and purchases its cocoa beans directly from choice plantations, thus securing an exclusive supply of Grand Crus from South America, the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean. Valrhona was one of the first chocolatiers to describe their chocolate in a similar fashion to wine with the labelling of such creations as grand cru, single origin, single estate and even vintage chocolate. Valrhona is regarded as being amongst the best of the few French chocolate makers today creating their chocolate from bean to bar (cacaofevier).

Women & Gender
Ensuring equity between women and men is the key to unleashing the full potential of communities to transform their lives. Mercy Corps addresses the unmet needs of women and girls in places where they have been marginalized and disempowered, while recognizing that it is vital to involve men and boys in the process of helping women and girls claim their equal place.
Throughout our programs, we consider the needs of both genders and build on the courage and resourcefulness of women to help them improve their families and communities.
All stories about Women & Gender
DR Congo: Rainstorms, Lava and a Human Flood
I recently watched as the rain fell for hours over Goma. From the comfort of a house, rain in tropical Africa is spectacular, even magic. But for the thousands displaced Congolese waiting out the storm in their twenty-four square foot huts made of sticks and banana leaves, it is hell.
South Sudan: A Lodge 'Bigger Than The Hilton'
China: Perfect Harmony Family
Sudan: New Skills for Asha
By looking at 25-year-old Asha, you could never tell that she has been through so much in her young life.
Indonesia: Regaining Independence
Indonesia: Empowerment Through Gardening
The women of Mirik Lamreudup village are not only winning awards for their organic agriculture, but sharing their newfound success with other women in the area. Most of them are survivors of the Indian Ocean tsunami. All of them have made great strides in the last three years.
Indonesia: Annisah: An Acehnese Woman's Spirit
"I will do anything to increase my family's income as long as it's legal," said Annisah, a 30-year-old woman who is part of Mercy Corps' Aceh Recovery Program. But her words sound more like purpose than desperation. Since the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, she's known plenty of the latter.
Somalia: The Ladies of Mercy Corps Somalia
I assumed Somali women would be quiet and shy — a little tough to engage in an interview.
China: An Ancient Culture Confronts New Challenges
Family life in China's Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture is often isolated. "Liangshan" itself means "cool mountain" in Mandarin Chinese. Indeed, family farms of the Yi ethnic group are scattered among the rolling mountains, often several hours' walking distance from the nearest town.
Finally Home
Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina — Refija Halilovic sits on a small stool bathed in late morning sunlight, her son Maumer resting quietly against her knee. It is a scene of almost bucolic tranquility, but one whose quiet belies the trauma that led these two to a tiny apartment here.

ho notato un forte miglioramento
Excellent quality, very quick delivery (9 business days from Hong Kong to Europe), increased the time between recharges from ~1 day on standard battery to ~5 1/2 days. That is, it doesn't last 20% longer, but 500% longer (aged and worn std. battery vs brand new Mugen) or maybe 100% longer if there is a brand new std. battery compared to a brand new Mugen.
Thanks Mugen! The battery is perfect! 30% or more! :)

a problem arise with these items, RCN will either fix the
problem or offer a replacement at our sole discretion. RCN
will also warranty any network interface cards supplied by
us (RCN supplied NIC's are available in selected markets
only) for a term of 30 days. After the warranty has expired,
you will be charged for the cost of replacing any defective
NIC or will be responsible for replacing it through a third
party. RCN's staff will not help to install any hardware supplied
by a third party with the exception of describing how a modem
will be fit into a slot inside the computer, a PCMCIA slot,
or hooked up via a serial cable to a serial port. Additionally, RCN cannot help you should you be having problems
with your computer in general, such as frequent crashes, slowness,
hardware conflicts, or failure to boot up. Such issues should
be directed to your computer's manufacturer for guidance. Connectivity It is expected that customers will be helped to ensure optimal
connections to the Internet. This includes helping to resolve
basic modem problems by trying different initialization strings,
verifying that you are using the correct Communications Port,
verifying configuration settings, and/or checking physical
connections. Customer Service will also aid in helping to clear up any
other non-modem related connectivity issues unless the problem
stems from hardware or software a customer has installed in
order to network their home computer(s). This may include
authentication problems, unexpected disconnected sessions,
unreasonably slow connections, or DNS issues. Customer Service
will make sure that they have used all available tools to
ensure a reasonable connection to the Internet for all customers.
For cable modem service, should all efforts to resolve the
problem fail, the RCN representative may schedule an appointment
with a field technician to visit your home if they feel that
a visit is necessary to resolve the issue. Networking RCN's dial-up and high speed Internet service is intended
to be used for residential consumers. Servers are not supported
on RCN's network. By default, RCN's Internet service
comes with one dynamic IP address. While additional IP addresses
are available in some markets for an added monthly charge

A Dolan is a fish with ballsacks the size of Toyota Sieanna 2008 models. Each ballsack is the size of one car. The McDolan is farmed by popular shit food company, McDonalds. The fishes body is the size of a marble and the ballocks are as big as cars. McDonalds chops up the sacks and then uses them as hamburger patties.
The McDolan burger was so delicious and moist.

I hope to see this done well. I haven't had a positive multi-desktop experience in linux on any of the DE's on any distros.
Phoronix: Canonical Starts Work On Mir Multi-Monitor Handling
One of the feature limitations of using the Mir Display Server up to this point has been when using multiple monitors (or say a laptop connected to a projector) the only display configuration possibility is using a cloned mode whereby the screens are the same. Canonical's Mir developers have begun working on improved multi-monitor handling...
I hope to see this done well. I haven't had a positive multi-desktop experience in linux on any of the DE's on any distros.
The part i was most worried about was if they where going to have a surface per monitor or not, but it seams that they are doing it the right way, and even having it tunable witch i hadn't expected.
With a single frame buffer you quickly hit hardware limitation because the combined size is larger then what the hardware can handle. For my set up of just 2 monitors it fails when using HD5xxx with Catalyst, though I works with Radeon. But performance is very poor. I tried switching to a GT210 but got the same poor performance.
From the Wayland mailing list:
You often also also end up with a lot of waisted texture allocation if you monitors aren't the same size, orientation or alignment.Originally Posted by Alex Deucher
I also imagine that there is a benefit to have by being able to sent the frame bufferer directly to the displays instead of having to slice them out of a larger frame buffer.
You also don't have to reallocate the frame buffer when reconfiguring the displays.
Lastly it should also simplify configuring the desktop background correctly and individually per display.
The only down side I see is print screen would have to stitch together the frame bufferers in to a single image.
I can't imagine this is still a problem with somewhat modern hardware. Modern GPUs can handle colorbuffers and textures of 16K size. That is plenty even if you want to attach multiple 4K monitors. And if your hardware isn't completely ancient, it will be able to handle at least 8K, which should still be enough for all common cases. Memory consumption can be an issue, but separate colorbuffers cannot fully solve that problem either; if you don't have sufficient amounts of VRAM (and bandwidth) setups with multiple monitors are always going to suffer. However, 2 GB VRAM are quickly becoming the standard amount, so this shouldn't be a problem in practice.
Essentially, he's saying that each monitor/display connected has its own screen as opposed to having one big-ass desktop spread out over multiple monitors. This is the right way to do it because then you can have independent resolutions that better fit each display. I'm sure there's a ton of under the hood benefits as well.
Multi-monitor setups are, IMO, only good if you have a low-wattage GPU with non-gaming purposes in mind, or, if you have a rig strictly used for gaming and nothing else. I have 2 HD5750s in crossfire and I was amazed how much heat the primary GPU generated when not doing anything graphically intensive. In this particular GPU anyway, it has 7 different clock settings in it's BIOS. I tried underclocking the settings that seemed to be linked specifically to multi-monitors and surprisingly, just a 100mhz difference in the memory can make the 2nd display unstable. Windows didn't seem to care as much about re-clocking. I'm guessing if I want to try multi-monitor again, I'm going to have to either ditch KDE for something not composited, or, hope that mir or wayland will allow me to reclock my GPU. Considering the relationship between KDE and mir, that reduces my options.
I'm wondering something that is not really important, but makes me curious.
When dragging an app to the edge of a given monitor, to another, will it "jump" to the other screen, or will it display partially in both screens? This seems 100% trivial, but I can see how in a slower card this could lead to images showing a lack of sync (a screen will probably update before the other, and then one will have the previous state of the app displaying instead of the current state, for a fraction of second, while the other is already up-to-date). Just jumping would avoid this kind of artifact.
EDIT: I'm asking more in general, not specifically Mir's case.

When a purchase involves both cash and stock, buyer
seller beware
Blog Entry:
March 27, 2013 4:30 AM | Author: SEAN SAARI
Sean Saari is a senior manager in Skoda Minotti's
Valuation and Litigation Advisory Services group
. He focuses his practice in the areas of valuation, litigation advisory services, complex damages analysis and modeling, mergers and acquisitions, and strategic planning.
We are all familiar with the phrase "cash is king." Why is it, though, that cash is crowned king and not real estate, bonds or LeBron James?
It all boils down to the fact that everyone can agree to the value of a dollar bill without dispute — $1 is worth $1. Someone cannot reasonably argue that a dollar bill is really worth $1.10 or 90 cents.
As a result, investors typically prefer to receive cash when selling an ownership interest in a business. It is not uncommon, however, for an acquirer to pay part of the purchase price of an acquisition with its own stock.
In the case of a privately held acquirer, the value of its stock is somewhat subjective and there can be reasonable arguments for what one person perceives as being valued at $1 per share being worth 70 cents or $1.40. You get the idea. As a result, it is imperative that both the acquirer and the target in a transaction have support for, and a level of comfort with, the value assigned to the acquirer's shares if they are issued as part of the deal.
There is risk on both sides of a transaction when a privately held company is issuing shares as a component of deal consideration. The buyer has an incentive to overvalue its stock and issue fewer shares to the seller, which results in the seller not receiving sufficient compensation for its company. The seller, on the other hand, has an incentive to undervalue the acquirer's stock in an effort to receive more shares and greater ownership percentage, which results in the buyer overpaying. As you can see, there are competing interests that can heighten the incentives for, and the likelihood of, overpayment or underpayment.
Another factor that must be considered is that shares in a privately held company are typically subject to a meaningful lack of marketability discount, which may be greater than 30% of the acquiring company's undiscounted value. This discount takes into account the fact that a minority owner in a privately held company cannot readily turn his or her ownership interest into cash (unlike an investment in a publicly traded company). If this discount is not considered when assigning value to the acquirer's shares, it can result in the seller receiving less value than he or she would have had all of the proceeds been paid in cash.
The impact of discounts for lack of marketability can extend to shares of publicly traded companies issued in connection with acquisitions as well. We have seen instances in which the sellers in a transaction received restricted stock of the publicly traded acquirer. The restrictions did not permit the sale of the shares for periods ranging from a few months to a few years, which makes the shares less valuable than they would be if they were freely tradable from day one.
Imagine receiving shares of a publicly traded company worth $5 million on the date of issuance and watching them decline to $1 million prior to the restricted sale period elapsing. As a result, it is appropriate to consider a discount for lack of marketability for restricted shares in publicly traded companies, as well, to capture the risk associated with potential changes in the price of the acquiring company's shares before the restricted sale period has ended.
While acquirers go to great lengths to reduce their risks when purchasing a company, it is still very much a "buyer beware" world — hence the amount of time spent on due diligence before a transaction closes. When shares of the acquiring company are being issued as a portion of the deal consideration in an acquisition, however, the seller also must beware. In these cases, it is essential that both the buyer and seller accurately value the acquirer's shares, or one party may be left with something worth far less than what it thought it bargained for.

Phoronix: Happy 5th Birthday, Phoronix!
It was five years ago today, on the 5th of June 2004, that Phoronix.com launched. It was also one year ago to the day that Phoronix Test Suite 1.0 was released. Here are a few statistics and highlights from the past five years with what we have set out to accomplish with enriching the Linux hardware experience and driving Linux-based benchmarking and testing.
Something interesting to look at: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/phoronix.com and http://web.archive.org/web/*/phoronix.com
But anyway, Congrats!
Also, something just occured to me: I originally found Phoronix because I was looking for an alternative to 3DMark, preferably one that runs on Linux. Why not have a feature where the PTS has a default test mode that assigns an arbitrary number that correlates to how your computer performs? With a GUI, we can have a true replacement for 3DMark on Linux.

Congratulations, and thanks for the interesting articles
Btw, any explanation on the sudden popularity increase back in 2007?
That one's even listed as one of the most popular articles
Congrats Phoronix anyways, been an interesting year in 2008!
Happy birthday
and thanx for all the news & articles!
keep it up!
Congrats, and keep up the good work!
Congratulations, most of the time really interesting news on this site. I like PTS too and would just like to see an open source server part (PTS Global).
My best wishes the 5 years to become 50
