Coast Guard investigators are working with the Maine State Ferry Service to determine why the ferry Everett Liberty ran aground with 30 people on board shortly after leaving the terminal in Vinalhaven, Maine, on the way to Rockland, Maine, Thursday, June 3, 2010.
None of the 26 passengers or four crew members were injured during the accident and there are no reports of pollution. The ferry terminal manager called the Coast Guard around 9:25 a.m., reporting the ferry grounded in The Reach, Maine, near Norton's Point, Maine.
"We worked quickly with the Maine State Ferry Service to ensure the vessel was safe to transit to Rockland and to minimize interruptions to ferry service," said Lt. Lisa Ceraolo of the Sector Northern New England command center.
A 47-ft motor lifeboat from Coast Guard Station Rockland escorted the Everett Liberty to a ferry landing in Rockland, where Coast Guard investigators and inspectors met the vessel. Visibility at the time of the grounding was less than a quarter of a mile.

Akathisia Lyrics by Kaospilot
Akathisia by Kaospilot
What happened to our culture? Suddenly all of us became products of our environment. With the aim of individuality, mobility, flexibility and effectivity - our anxiety expands. The vampire kisses and we are infected one by one. Solipsistic ideas turn into a romantic term. Is this a symptom of a common sense rebellion towards our surroundings or are we the enemy? Ask yourself. Death is a welcome result. And remember did you have your pill today?

1. Technical Field
The present invention relates generally to pushbutton switches and particularly to a dome contact used in pushbutton switches and method for fabrication the dome contact.
2. Description of the Related Art
Keypads are widely used for inputting data in the user interfaces of portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), etc. As shown in
However, when making and assembling the pushbutton switch 10, the bump 125 of the button 12 may be disposed unaligned with the center of the dome contact 13. In this condition, pressing the button 12 requires additional force, and the pushbutton switch 10 cannot provide a desirable tactile feedback characteristic. In addition, since the dome contact 13 is likely to be pressed from its center, the reliability of the contact between the contact sheet 132 and the fixed contact 15 is affected.
Therefore, there is a need to provide an improved dome contact and a method for making the dome contact to overcome the above-described problem.
Many aspects of the present dome contact and method for fabricating the dome contact can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present dome contact and method for fabricating the dome contact and its potential applications. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The present dome contact of pushbutton switch is particularly suitable for electronic devices, such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), etc.
Referring now to
The button 31 is mounted to the housing 21, and has an outer surface exposed from the housing 21 to be pressed by a user.
The dome contact 32 includes a diaphragm 33, a bump 34 and a contact sheet 35. The diaphragm 33 is made from elastic material, such as plastic material, resin material, or aluminum and so on. In the present embodiment, the diaphragm 33 is made from poly-ethylene terephthalate (PET). The diaphragm 33 includes a dome portion 331 surrounded by a skirt portion 333. The dome portion 331 can be actuated from a first dished configuration to a second, opposite dished configuration by an external force and then rebound to the first dished configuration after the external force is released. The skirt portion 333 extends outwardly from periphery of the dome portion 331. The skirt portion 333 is used to fix the diaphragm 32 to the circuit board 23, and can be mounted to the circuit board 23 by surface mounting technology (SMT). The bump 34 and the contact sheet 35 are mounted on opposite surfaces of the diaphragm 33. The bump 34 projects from a central portion of a convex surface of the dome portion 33 towards the button 31. The bump 34 is preferred to have an isosceles trapezoid shaped cross section, with an end having a smaller area mounted to the dome portion 331. The bump 34 is made from elastic material such as resin material, or plastic material, and is in multilaminate structure. In the present embodiment, the bump 34 is made via thermal extrusion laminating molding technology of rapid prototyping (RP) manufacture technology, so that the bump 34 can be made with a relative large height while having less risk of deforming. The contact sheet 35 is made of electrically conductive material, and is adhered to a concave surface of the dome portion 331. However, the contact sheet 35 can only attach to a central portion of the concave surface of the dome portion 331. The contact sheet 35 has two protrusions 353 projecting therefrom for facilitating connection between the contact sheet 35 and the fixed contact 37. The diaphragm 33 is made from electrically conductive material, the contact sheet 35 can be omitted, and the diaphragm 33 acts as a contacting sheet to electrically contact the fixed contact 37.
The fixed contact 37 is mounted to the circuit board 23, and aligns with a center of the contact sheet 35. The fixed contact 37 can be mounted to the circuit board 23 via surface mounting technology.
In use, when a user presses the button 31, the bump 34 is pressed and causes the diaphragm 33 to dish to an opposite dished configuration. Thus, the contact sheet 35 of the dome contact 32 contacts the fixed contact 37, thereby generating an input signal. After the user releases the force on the button 31, the diaphragm 33 automatically rebounds to its original dished configuration.
Referring to
The step of forming the bump 34 includes the following sub-steps: forming a first layer of material on the central portion of the convex surface of the dome portion 331; stacking a second layer of material on the first layer of material, with the second layer of material aligning with the first layer of material and having a larger diameter than that of the first layer; and repeating the second sub-step to form multiple layers of material with the latter layer has a larger outline than that of the previous layer until the total height of the layers meet a predetermined height.
In the present embodiment of the pushbutton switch 300, the bump 34 is directly formed on the diaphragm 33 of the dome contact 32. Even if the button 31 is disposed unaligned with the dome contact 32, the bump 34 can still press the central portion of the diaphragm 33. Therefore, the pushbutton switch 300 can provide a desired tactile feedback characteristic and an improved reliability.
It is to be understood, however, that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present invention, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of present invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.

Favorite Bible Verse: Psalm 8:3-5
Hello! I'm a Christian homeschool girl looking for other girls or women to correspond with via old fashioned snail mail. (Sorry, no guys; and I cannot do email).
I'm a very traditional girl, and enjoy traditional "girly" things; but also like some outdoorsy things like hunting, gardening or playing backyard sports. Some of my favorite hobbies are playing board games, reading, singing, and most of all writing or doing anything with words! I've tried writing in many genres and styles, and my favorite authors are J. R. R. Tolkien, Jane Austen, C. S. Lewis, Charles Dickens, and way too many others to mention. I like being creative; knitting, sketching, writing, costume/fashion designing, sewing, acting, singing, baking, playing piano, dancing, whatever. Even though I'm not any good at most of them! I love my family a lot, so if you write to me, you'll probably get to know about them, too. I also love animals, and enjoy caring for our two milk cows, chickens, cats, and dog. I hope to get a new puppy soon!
Most importantly, I am saved by the blood of Christ. Nothing I can do can save me from the just wrath of God, but Christ died for ME. It is amazing to me that the Son of God would come and die...for me. I serve a great LORD, and am really excited to see where he puts me in life!
Anyway, enough of me, I can tell you anything you want later on. I would love to hear from you and talk about our Christian walk, life, hobbies, dreams for the future, and whatever else interests you! I always have a listening ear open if you need someone to talk to.
God bless you!

|Nelly Thompson was a happy housewife who did not care much about anything but keeping her house and raising the kids. But there was one thought which deprived her of her sleep. She had once seen Terry, her son, in the shower, and his sizeable cock was her obsession. One evening she could not keep in her lust anymore and simply pulled Terry's pants off! At first she was anxious whether Terry would like her mature body, but the boy was so passionate:
Mary's father, lives with Mary, while their mother moved to another town after
divorce. Bob has many friends, and Mary, a shy pretty girl,
is often the target of their jokes. Bob was having more and more intense fantasies about Mary giving blowjob to him and his friend, so there came an evening when he invited his sexy daughter to have a couple of drinks: Mary performed so good she was all soaked in cum of her father and his amazed friend!
|Anthony Kowalski, a divorced teacher, loved his cute blonde daughter Amanda more than anyone in the world. Since her very childhood he enjoyed taking photos and filming her on camera. When she grew into a very beautiful teen girl, Anthony's shootings acquired a different taste. Sometimes he thought that it would have been great to film her naked, and one day he talked her into some naked posing, which led them to a totally hardcore incest scene:

Traffic control for mobile
TELECOMS| Oct. 11, 2011, 12:58 p.m.
By Carole Kimutai, Nairobi, Kenya
As the demand for mobile broadband networks continues to increase, Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) has launched Liquid Net, a solution that will help decongest mobile traffic.
"Our Liquid Net solution enables the networks of operators to self-adapt and meet the capacity and coverage requirements by sharing resources based on demand," says Karri Kuoppamaki, Nokia Siemens Networks Head of Technology for Africa Region.
Kuoppamaki says the demand for network resources is constantly changing, depending on place and time. For instance in the morning, there is normally a high demand for network capacity in major towns in Kenya especially in Nairobi; while late in the evening; it shifts to the suburban or residential areas.
"If there is a soccer match at Nyayo Stadium or graduation at the University of Nairobi, the network will experience a sudden increase in traffic around these particular areas. Having the ability to accommodate these fluctuations and provision capacity based on demand will help operators to improve customer loyalty and can open up new business opportunities for them," Kuoppamaki says.
Network traffic
A sudden increase in demand or changes in network traffic causes bottlenecks in parts of the network. This often means that huge chunks of capacity can be left idle, with as much as 50% of a conventional core network's capacity dormant at any one time. Liquid Net unfreezes the network capacity into a reservoir of resources that can flow to fulfil unpredictable demand, wherever and whenever people use broadband.
Kuoppamaki says the increasing number of mobile broadband users in Kenya and in Africa is bound to exert more pressure on the existing networks hence telecommunications service providers or operators need to build networks that are extremely flexible to be able to meet the ever-changing, individual needs.
Statistics from the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) show current mobile subscribers at 25 million as at June 2011. This means that the current mobile penetration rate is currently at approximately 63%. The mobile penetration rate is expected to reach 75%by the end of 2015. Nearly five years ago, the mobile penetration rate in Kenya was only 21%, an indicator of the tremendous growth of mobile usage.
According to NSN, mobile broadband rate (per 100 inhabitants) is currently at less than 9% and is expected to grow to 23% by the end of 2014. To meet the envisaged high demand, says Kuoppamaki, networks will need to tap into solutions like Liquid Net to enable their networks to self-adapt and meet the capacity and coverage requirements by sharing resources based on demand.
Liquid Net is able to unleash frozen network capacity by using automated, self-adapting broadband optimisation that makes the network self-aware of its operational status and the services being consumed. This is achieved through the use of built-in intelligence and real-time monitoring capabilities that allow the network to recognise where demand is coming from and instantly re-adjust itself to deliver the necessary capacity to match that demand.
How Liquid Net works
With Liquid Net, operators do not have to change their entire network to adopt the technology. It is designed to help operators extract greater value from their investments in their existing network infrastructure, which helps to mitigate the high costs normally associated with future network innovation.
"Liquid Net takes a fully evolutionary approach that is non-disruptive, yet also transformational. This will help operators reduce the capital expenditure requirements associated with building out network capacity to meet growing demand over the medium- to long-term, and will protect existing investments while also future-proofing them" Kuoppamaki explains.
"This is a very important factor as demand for broadband services can be highly unpredictable, fluctuating between locations at different times, as people use broadband at home, at work and on the move," he says.
Liquid Net builds on the principles of NSN's Liquid Radio architecture, which self-adapts its capacity and coverage to match fluctuating user demand through baseband pooling, and adds Liquid Core and Liquid Transport functionality to the network. The Liquid Radio architecture also offers Heterogeneous Networks, which enable all network layers to be used as a logically unified network.
Another aspect of Liquid Radio includes Active Antenna System technology, which supports multi-radio and multi-band access for GSM, 3G, LTE and LTE-Advanced, providing up to a 65% gain in capacity.

Alaska's health commissioner says his department didn't intend to restrict the definition of a medically necessary abortion in proposed regulations for abortion payment conditions.
Commissioner Bill Streur was responding to Sen. Hollis French, who said the agency is seeking to reinstate criteria overturned by the Alaska Supreme Court.
The court held the state must fund medically necessary abortions if it funds medically necessary services for others with financial needs. A legal opinion requested by French said phrasing used in the proposal is narrower than current law, and "reasonably likely" to be found unconstitutional.
While French asked Streur withdraw the proposal, Streur said the department would determine, after reviewing all public comment, whether to make language changes.
Streur said a court would ultimately decide constitutionality if the adopted regulation were challenged.

We are a young couple, in our 30`s, who would like to spend our honeymoon in the Maldives and Sri Lanka in October. We would like to start our trip on a beach destination and then move to a cultural destination. Our plans, so far, are as follows:
- Depart to Malé in October 7th, from Brazil
- Arrival in Malé in October 9th
- 6 nights in the Maldives: we would like your help to find a nice hotel. We would like to stay in a very relaxing place, on a water bungalow: Our options, so far, are: Four Seasons Hotels (Landaa Giraavaru or Kuda Huraa), Cocoa Island by Como, W Hotel, Gili or Baros. What would you recommend?
- 8 nights in Sri Lanka (we could probably do 9 nights; we prefer to stay in fewer places):
2 nights in Vil Uyana Hotel
2 nights in Kandy at the Kandy House
2 nights in the Tea Trails Hotel
2 nights in the Dutch House or the Amangalle Hotel
Would you skip Vil Uyana and split the 8-9 nights in Kandy, Tea Trails and the Dutch House?
- 2 nights in Dubai or our way back: any recommendations?
Thank you so much!

I'd suggest you chose three places in Sri Lanka. The drive between places is long, and you'll want more time at your destinations than in the car.
Don't skip the cultural triangle - indeed, spend three nights and visit Sigiriya, the Dambulla cave temples and Polonnaruwa. Two nights is fine for Kandy. But you'll want three nights at Tea Trails. I've heard mixed reviews of Vil Uyana. We stayed at the Kandalama and loved it.
You may want to cut Amangalle/Dutch House, or better yet, cut Dubai instead.

So this is the plan. Now that England is finally out, Australia bats for the next six sessions, scoring about 530 runs and setting England a target of 115 or so from lunch on day five.
Exhausted and confused, the English collapse to be all out for 92 on a worn pitch that suits both the skidding pace of Siddle and Smith's looping legspin. The series moves on to the deciding Test in Sydney and everybody is happy.
UPDATE. Australia 1/53. One-tenth of the way there.

We all have friends or relatives whose enthusiasm is far greater than their ability. They're fine people, no doubt about it, but we've learned to back away or pretend we didn't hear whenever our hopeless mates volunteer to help.
Experience is our guide. It might not be the best idea to enlist Dave's assistance with the house painting, after that time he mistook turpentine for clear coat. Mike's input won't be required for any children's birthday parties since he hired Pervo the Adelaide Clown for his own kid's fifth. Personally, I suspect I'm banned by my own family from ever teaching my nieces how to drive, following certain licence-revocation issues.
It's probably for the best. Sure, they'll all end up driving like girls, but they're girls anyway. Besides, someone in the family needs a licence, otherwise we'll have to keep calling it a walk-thru.
These matters are easily dealt with at a family or local level. The hopeless mate is identified and gently moved aside. But things become difficult when conducted on a national scale, which brings us to the Labor government and its $36 billion national broadband network.

"It was like a car crash," people say. "I had to look." By contrast, I find it very easy to avoid that impulse when it comes to car crashes, particularly if I'm in one of the cars. It's also a useful means of avoiding tiresome court appearances as a witness.
Australia's first day of the Fourth Test was so catastrophic, however, that after three or four hours or so it became absolutely mesmerising. We've been smashed previously, but by genuine masters of the smashing arts; this time Australia was brought down by nothing more than disciplined English county bowling and our own emo-style self-harming compulsion. Geoff Boycott:
Ricky Ponting got a very good ball that bounced on him but most of the others played loose, sloppy shots. Shane Watson played forward before the ball was delivered and it bounced on him. Phillip Hughes flashed at a wide ball. Mike Hussey was driving on the up. Michael Clarke played a tentative poke outside off stump away from his body.
If Steve Smith is a number six, I'll eat my hat. Brad Haddin attempted an extravagant cover drive that I wouldn't have played if I'd been on 200.
What do you expect if you bat like that?
Pictures like this. Day two is underway. Remove all sharp items.

Chris Kenny on the compassionate left's moral superiority:
As the nation was shocked by news of the Christmas Island tragedy, Sarah Hanson-Young issued a statement via Twitter.
The Australian Greens' immigration spokeswoman expressed horror at the "terrible tragedy" and said this day was "for expressing sorrow for what has happened, and for providing support and compassion for everyone involved".
A few hours later, while rescue teams would still have been scouring huge seas for survivors, the senator tweeted again: "Sharon Jones at the Gov. [Governor Hindmarsh Hotel, Adelaide] Brilliant!"
That moment crystallised for me the core of the problem with those who argue about border protection from a standpoint of moral superiority and self-declared compassion. It is all care, no responsibility.
For the same reason, leftists who'd agitated for a more "humane" asylum seeker policy under the incoming Labor government didn't bother charting the subsequent alarming rise in deaths. They cared. That was enough.

Late-night TV viewers may be wondering where their least-favourite ads have gone. Turns out the company responsible is in meltdown after spending $34 million on those ads in just 18 months.

There is nothing worse than comic books that "tell stories with important, real-world issues that people deal with like death, financial hardship and marriage."
Well, almost nothing. Folk music comes to mind. And folk festivals.

Forget the CIA and elaborate honeytrap conspiracies. Julian Assange now blames radical feminism:
Mr Assange regards himself as a victim of radicalism. "Sweden is the Saudi Arabia of feminism," he said. "I fell into a hornets' nest of revolutionary feminism."
Surprisingly, Assange's gentlemanly charm couldn't help him out of it. According to one of his accusers:
She says they had consensual sex but she woke up the next morning to find him having intercourse with her to which she had not consented.
When she asked him if he was wearing anything, he had allegedly said: "I am wearing you."
He's a class act all the way.

Victoria Police report from the Fourth Test:
MCG Evictions have overtaken Michael Clarke, top scoring with 26. The drunk, unruly and even one in possession of drugs are out.
UPDATE. The contest continues:
A partnership of 37 with Victoria Police on 23 and MCC Security on 14 has evictions just outscoring Strauss on 34 not out.

Two catches dropped by England in the first three overs (both off Shane Watson, both facing James Anderson), plus two boundaries to Phil Hughes; a wild beginning to the Boxing Day Test.
UPDATE. England claims Watson, OUT for just 5 to Tremlett. Australia – surprisingly sent in to bat by England – 1/15. Ponting's legside nudge to get off the mark (after seven balls) exposes Hughes to threat of a run-out; Cook misses.

Another boat possibly lured to its doom:
Fears are mounting that 97 missing asylum seekers from Iraq and Iran may have died at sea, en route to Australia from Indonesia.
Relatives of 14 of the missing have told welfare workers they last had contact with them on November 13. They said their relatives had been in Jakarta and planned to leave the next day on a boat with about 97 people …
Refugee advocates making inquiries in Indonesia say they have been told the November boat was lost.
If so, this will take the death toll to around 315 since Labor introduced its humane asylum seeker policies. Since there aren't any photographs of the vessel, however, the story is likely to remain away from front pages. Australia's concerned classes require pictures before they pay attention. It's likely that this time nobody will even blame the navy.
At this point Julia Gillard simply has to reverse the government's policies or quit. But I would say that, being a heartless deathmonger. Laborites are instead invited to listen to one of their own:
"If you want to stop illegal immigration of this sort, you've got to go back to the policy that was proved to work under the previous government," a senior Labor MP told The Australian.
"I think the current government, when it faces the sort of political onslaught that is coming, can certainly change the policy back. Whether it will or not is another question, but the view I express is one held by many."
Tell it to Gillard.
UPDATE. Good news:
Ninety-seven asylum seekers feared to have perished at sea are most likely on Christmas Island, a refugee advocate says.
A boat matching the description of the one believed to be missing en route from Jakarta arrived in Australia earlier this month, according to a federal government website …
A media release on the website of Home Affairs Minister Brendan O'Connor states HMAS Wollongong boarded "a suspected irregular entry vessel" north-east of Christmas Island on December 2.
"Initial indications suggest there are 97 passengers and three crew on board," the website says.
No updates yet from Fairfax papers, which appear to have gotten this terribly wrong.

After we posted our 3DMark Vantage results in combination with 3-way SLI GeForce GTX 280 / PhysX drivers / and 4200 Mhz CPU overclock I received quite a lot of emails. A couple among them entailed the question if we could post the Extereme performance setting in 3DMark Vantage as well.
Therefore I just ran a couple of additional results for all modes in 3DMark Vantage.

I am glad I am not the only one. I am glad I am not odd in believing and FEELING that summer brings back childhood memories. Being a teacher, I am so fortunate to work hard during the fall and winter months and a bit into spring, but summer is a gift to be taken. It's on a summer day that I am free like no other time during the year to enter into my "time capsule" that takes me back to the hot streets of Los Angeles where I played with friends as we hosed each other down with our hoses meeting in the street. I retrace my steps as I walk to the market and I remember walking with my mother to the shopping center (this was before malls) and I am a child again. Thank GOD for summer, thank GOD for memories.

Relive all that is wonderful to you and see it all again through the eyes of an adult who can doubly appreciate it all!Castles Crowns and Cottageshttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-2662342335126250282016-06-22T05:10:09.687-04:002016-06-22T05:10:09.687-04:00I remember eating bowls of cherries at my grandma&...I remember eating bowls of cherries at my grandma's, in the dark living room, where the window A/C unit hummed. It was a cool cave, a respite from the syrupy humidity outside. Although outside, it was fun to squish the black tar she used in the cracks on the driveway; it would get so soft in the heat.
Here, I love the smell of the pines when it's hot. It's more pronounced, and it's perfumed with the other scents of the garrigue, like wild thyme and wild rosemary. We go into the garrigue when it's hot for a picnic under the pines, and listen to them whistle and sing in the wind. francetastehttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-32376297164907270662016-06-22T03:53:23.107-04:002016-06-22T03:53:23.107-04:00I love summer, childhood memories of riding my pon...I love summer, childhood memories of riding my pony all day long, it's funny it never seemed to rain!

- Description:
Before I was a professional triathlete, I was... a student at OU Medical Center. I received my Medical Degree in May of 2006.
Describe your introduction to triathlon. I grew up in a family of swimmers and in the summers we would dabble in Ironkids races for fun. I remember going to the National Championships at SeaWorld, it was the coolest thing ever! After I turned 14, I was too 'old' for Ironkids, so that was the end of triathlon...until I started medical school. Some triathletes up at the gym saw me swimming and told me I should do a triathlon. I was very resistant to the idea but finally gave in and did a super sprint race (300yd pool swim, 10mi bike, 2mi run) in Bixby, OK and loved it. I was hooked!
Who has influenced your triathlon career the most/and how? My first triathlon coach was Mike Pigg. He had a huge influence on steering me in the right direction and gave me so much great advice. He always said I could learn from all his mistakes, so I wouldn't have to make the same ones. I have definitely made my own mistakes along the way, but he certainly made sure I bypassed a few. He also shared with me his passion for the sport.
Which event do you most look forward to each year and why? The Brookhaven 10K in Oklahoma...it's where I met my husband. Each year we do a race together to celebrate!

Still fancy that burger? Every fast food meal you eat bumps up your BMI by 0.03 points
- Between 1999 and 2008 the number of fast food meals the average person in a high income country ate each year rose from 27 to 33
- During the same time, the average BMI in the 25 wealthy countries studied increased from 25.8 to 26.4 - means the average person is now overweight
For every fast food meal a person eats their BMI increases by 0.03, new research suggests
Many people will freely admit to enjoying a burger every now and then, but the findings of a new study may make them think twice before ordering another Big Mac.
Research has revealed that a person's BMI – body mass index – increases by 0.03 every time they eat fast food.
The research, published in the Bulletin of the World Health Organisation, also revealed that between 1999 and 2008 the number of fast food meals eaten each year rose from 27 to 33 per person.
During the same time period, the average BMI in the 25 high-income countries studied increased from 25.8 to 26.4.
As a result, researchers at the University of California, Davis, worked out that every fast food meal is causing a 0.03 increase in BMI.
A person with a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 is considered to be a healthy weight, 25 to 29.9 is considered to be overweight and having a BMI of more than 30 sees someone classed as obese.
The researchers involved say governments could slow – or even reverse - the growing obesity epidemic by taking measures to regulate fast food consumption.
The study is the first to look at the effects of deregulation in the economy and the resulting increase in fast food consumption on obesity over time.
It suggests that if governments took action, they could prevent obesity, which can have serious long-term health consequences including diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer.
'Unless governments take steps to regulate their economies, the invisible hand of the market will continue to promote obesity worldwide with disastrous consequences for future public health and economic productivity,' said lead author Dr Roberto De Vogli from the Department of Public Health Sciences at the University of California, Davis.
The study focuses on high-income countries, but its findings are also relevant to developing countries as 'virtually all nations have undergone a process of market deregulation and globalisation – especially in the last three decades,' Dr De Vogli said.
The figures also reveal how widespread the problem of obesity is.
They showed that people living in the 25 high income countries studied are, on average, overweight and have been for the last 15 years.
Between 1999 and 2008 the number of fast food meals the average person ate each year rose from 27 to 33. During the same time, the average BMI in the 25 high income countries studied increased from 25.8 to 26.4
The average number of annual fast food meals per person increased in all 25 countries between 1999 and 2008.
The sharpest increases were in Canada, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand, while the lowest increases were in countries with more stringent market regulation, such as Italy, the Netherlands, Greece and Belgium.
They also found that the intake of animal fats and total calories changed only slightly at a time of a sharp increase in obesity.
Taking data from the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organisation, the authors found that the intake of animal fats decreased slightly from 212 kcal per person per day in 1999 to 206 in 2008.
They also found that the calorie intake increased slightly for six of those years with 3,432 calories per per person per day in 2002 compared to 3,437 in 2008.
The average person living in the 25 high income countries studied is now overweight and has been for 15 years
'This study shows how important public policies are for addressing the epidemic of obesity,' said Dr Francesco Branca, director of the Department of Nutrition for Health and Development at WHO.
'Policies targeting food and nutrition are needed across several sectors including agriculture, industry, health, social welfare and education,' Dr Branca said.
He added: 'Countries where the diet is transitioning from one that is high in cereals to one that is high in fat, sugar and processed foods need to take action to align the food supply with the health needs of the population.'
As a result, the researchers suggest governments could reverse the obesity epidemic through policies such as giving economic incentives to encourage companies to sell healthy foods and regulating the advertising of fast food.
