Obesity Rate: Where Does Your State Rank?
Here's a quick and easy way to see where your state ranks in terms of adult and child obesity. Just click on your state on this interactive map and see your state's score:
Where does your state rank on the list? I live in New York, which is #36 for adult obesity, but #17 for childhood obesity.
I'm surprised that New York is that high for childhood obesity!
Anyone else?
i am in New Orleans, LA and it is bad for both adult and childhood obesity!!!
South Carolina is 9th in the country with 29.9% obesity level. Childhood obesity ranked 22nd at 15.3%. YIKES YIKES and YIKES!
I'm in TX. Childhood obesity 7th
Adult 13th
Doesn't surprise me!
I live in Washington and it rates #28 for adults and #48 for children...sad.
#9....I could rant and rave all night about South Carolina. Needless to say, we have our work cut out for us...
It's the only place I've ever lived so I know nothing else. I just want sidewalks so I don't have to run on the edge of the road. Is that really so much to ask?? hehe
Quoting runner-mom:
#9....I could rant and rave all night about South Carolina. Needless to say, we have our work cut out for us...
I'm in Florida and we're 36th as well. Apparently we're tied with N.Y. Adults at 25.1% and children at 18.3%. I think most of those children live in our area. It's very sad. I see these kids that are obviously overweight, not "baby fat" or "nearing a growth spurt" and I see what their parents feed them. **shivers**
North Carolina is bad!!! I'm shocked. 10th for Adults and 11th for childhood obesity. Scarey!!!

Since the introduction of chemotherapeutic agents effective in the treatment of streptococcic and pneumococcic infections, efforts have been made to improve on these agents and to develop a compound equally effective against infections caused by staphylococci. Sulfathiazole (2-sulfanilamidothiazole) and sulfamethylthiazole (2-sulfanilamido-4-methylthiazole) have shown promise in this direction. Sulfamethylthiazole is a white amorphous powder which is less soluble than sulfanilamide, sulfapyridine or sulfathiazole. Sulfamethylthiazole (together with sulfathiazole) was first synthesized in August 1939 by Fosbinder and Walter,1 who also reported its effectiveness against streptococci and pneumococci. Lawrence2 found sulfathiazole and sulfamethylthiazole to be superior to sulfanilamide in their bacteriostatic effect against Lancefield group A Streptococcus haemolyticus and against the colon-typhoid-dysentery group. Barlow and Homburger3 reported that in experimentally produced infections with Str. haemolyticus and Pneumococcus types I, II and III the effect of thiazole derivatives of sulfanilamide was definitely superior to that of the parent substance and compared

Is it that time of year already? 2011 has blown by with its usual volume of movie releases, most of which have about as much appeal as sucking juice from a dry lemon. Of course, there are Oscar contenders and there are Pompey contenders. I don't have to tell you that Oscar is bigger and gets more press, but my picks come with better titles.
Best Film Featuring Cars Loaded With Hunky-Looking Guys
Tie: Drive and Fast Five
Both have great cars. Both can do tremendous damage at high rates of speed. Depends on whether you like your men slim or meaty.
Best Film With Hot, Fighting Divas
Sucker Punch
I'd like to know if you've ever seen a film filled with more sexy ladies who can fight and sing at the same time. Could this actually be an MTV reality series?
Best Film With a Lizard
Kind of like watching Disney nature films on acid. Depp truly channels his inner lizard here. Get out your pen and paper and keep track of all the movies this film pays tribute to. The guys who made this film — they're good.
Best Film With a Panda Bear
Kung Fu Panda 2
I love this bear! He's pudgy, hungry and very cute. And he knows kung fu, sort of. He gives me hope that bigger bears, er, guys, can be adorable. Plus, he and I have the same lovely tummy.
Best Film by the Long-Absent Woody Allen
Midnight in Paris
It's been so long since Allen gave us a good comedy, and it's all shot in Paris. A veritable travelogue to help you plan a vacation, if you actually wanted a vacation where you caught a Parisian cab and traveled back in time.
Best Film That Finally Finishes Off Harry Potter
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
Gasp! Our long Harry Potter ordeal is finished. Imagine what these kids have been through just to entertain us (besides getting rich). Doesn't seem fair.
Best Film About Baseball That's Actually About Baseball
It's right there in the title. You can't miss it. The 2002 Oakland Athletics, so cheap even their bats were rusty. Still, thanks to Brad Pitt and company, they now have their very own biopic. If you don't like baseball, don't worry. Just enjoy Brad Pitt.
Best Film That Refuses to Behave Itself
Tree of Life
If you're so over watching films with regular plots and dialogue, here is your alternative. This film is like swimming with the real God in the prehistoric universe. Forget the plot, the dialogue, the actors. Be one with the globby orb up on the screen. Ommmm.
Best Film About Wall Street Scumbaggers and Their Evil Minions
Margin Call
Want to get really boiling mad and start rioting in the streets of New York? I dare you to watch this film and not want to punch somebody. OK, so it's fiction, but is it, really? I couldn't tell the difference.
Best Film With a Flamethrower
Are you a closet arsonist who lika da fire? This little locally produced film (shot in Ventura, Oxnard and Camarillo) will scratch that itch. Far and away the best flame-throwing movie of the year. Probably the only flame-throwing movie of the year, but so what? It's like watching an actual hallucination in progress.

New pictures leak comparing Apple iPhone Lite and Apple iPhone 5
0. phoneArena 19 Jul 2013, 23:48 posted on
We recently saw a few pictures that compared what was purportedly the back of the Apple iPhone Lite with the back of the Apple iPhone 5; snce then, we also reported the latest news about the two different variants of the low-priced iPhone, each one with different internal specs and heading for different markets...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. JojoGo101 (Posts: 211; Member since: 17 Dec 2012)
I'm really curious about the specs they put on this cheaper model.
8. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
It has to be at least that of the iPhone 4S but with 1 GB of RAM, or else it will fail.
9. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3751; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Nada, i don't iPhone lite will have 1GB RAM...
That will kill iPhone 4(S) customers.
13. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
But iOS 7 needs 1 GB of RAM now because it finally supports multitasking, even Apple knows that. If they put less than that, then they are intentionally putting a drawback on their users.
19. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3751; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
How will you explain iOS 7 coming to 4S then?
20. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
That's exactly what I mean. My friend has had iOS 7 on his 4S since release, and it lags consistently. I know it's still in beta, but it hasn't gotten any better even with 2 new updates. A true multitasking OS just can't run smoothly on 512 MB of RAM without clearing out background processes constantly.
22. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3751; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
But it did come right? Just not so optimized...
1GB ram on iPhone lite...hm...we'll see, but i'll be skeptical.
24. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
But the thing is that Apple couldn't have anticipated the drastic change iOS 7 would bring at the time of the 4S, so they couldn't have given the 4S what it needed, but they can with the Lite.
25. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3751; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Well, atleast i can give Android some credit here.
36. quakan (Posts: 1373; Member since: 02 Mar 2011)
iOS 7 beta 3 benchmark on a iPhone 4...395. Just pitiful.
32. sniper1087 (Posts: 508; Member since: 31 Dec 2011)
Well the iphone 6 will come out and 5S most likely and the 5 will become the 4S price point, and most likely they will discontinue the 4S all together, or is even possible the plastic will be just a new iteration and they will keep just the 6 and 5 and all S versions will become the cheap versions, well who knows we have to wait and see.
11. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
it would have to be more like the 5 to be able to support LTE in the "Apple Proper" way and also i think an iPhone "Lite" really messes with Apple's model of just being able to move down the last gen iPhone to the mid range category which i think worked really well for them however this could work if this ends up just being an inexpensively built iPhone 5. so then they could fill the mid range category with both this and the 5 but they'll be able to offer trade-offs for each other, price vs. quality without specs having to be thrown in. if they were the Lite would probably lose considering how cheap you can get an iPhone 5 nowadays.
12. thelegend6657 (unregistered)
I think iPhone lite is 4S replacement in the mid range world
14. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
I didn't like how the previous gen iPhone was their mid range model, because after 1 or 2 software updates they are severely behind in features compared to the newest generation products. It's a big middle finger to those who buy previous gen devices. If Apple can make a mid range device alongside their flagship while giving it the same software features, that would be a much better deal for people who can't buy the high end model.
37. quakan (Posts: 1373; Member since: 02 Mar 2011)
Well if the cheaper model gets all the features then how would Apple motivate people to buy the high end model? The only difference would be looks.
2. Dingy_cellar_dweller (Posts: 253; Member since: 16 Mar 2013)
The yellow one looks like it has a cheap $2 ebay case on it.
3. tiara6918 (Posts: 2036; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
IPhone lite looks likea cheap toy, I even prefer the look of the older iPod touch more
4. wendygarett (unregistered)
Apple iPhone? I have a little times for this :)
but wait 4g connectivity? iMpossible...
5. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
Comparing the iPhone Lite with the iPhone 5.
It's like comparing a mustard flavored soap with a smartphone.
6. wendygarett (unregistered)
+1 for the mustard flavored soup :)
18. moroninc (Posts: 193; Member since: 14 Jul 2012)
'Soap' not soup
7. TripnCNT (Posts: 2; Member since: 19 Jul 2013)
I don't understand why apple would even consider making an iphone with that cheap aesthetic material, unless of course it is more likely to be aimed at 3rd world countries.
23. Rocksteady (unregistered)
Furthermore, They are planning to block Whatsapp and Skype, no need to get mobile phones, will be back soon to sending messages via pigeons.
10. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
With all of these leaks I'm actually starting to believe a 4.3" iPhone is possible. They will use the iPhone lite to maintain their one-handed usability stance and market the 5S as the premium device.
15. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
they won't change the screen size again for a long while.
third party developers for Apple products are still wheeling off of the bump to 4.0".
33. Napalm_3nema (Posts: 2183; Member since: 14 Jun 2013)
The developers that haven't changed (I have over 100 top apps on my iPhone 5, and none are letterboxed) are just lazy. It is literally a change to a couple lines of code.
16. DONUT (Posts: 424; Member since: 27 Jun 2013)
i know its suppose to be a cheaper iPhone but sheesh that cover looks beyond cheap
17. dspkblympkbl (Posts: 51; Member since: 23 May 2013)
Are they thieving off of HTC with the white strips across the back of the phone?
21. Fuego84 (Posts: 344; Member since: 13 May 2012)
It's one thing to be cheap in price but cheap in materials sucks. HTC One is premium material cheap price only $599 cheaper than galaxy s4 and only $20 more than galaxy s3.
26. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10456; Member since: 14 May 2012)
Galaxy S4 has more to offer in terms of hardware and software. Just letting you know.
29. vincelongman (Posts: 4423; Member since: 10 Feb 2013)
Just wondering which versions and are thy unlocked?
Far in NZ they are so expensive, here are some unlocked prices.
The HTC One 32GB=$999
Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 16GB=$949
Samsung Galaxy S III GT-i9300 16GB=$599
Also they don't sell the 32GB version of the Galaxys in NZ, except at parallel import stores or online.
27. softfurryanus (banned) (Posts: 232; Member since: 09 Jul 2013)
This is a VERY wise decision on apple's part. Think about all the kids 12-16 with cell phones, most probably want an iPhone, but might not get it because parents dont want to pay the price. This could definitely win a few customers for Apple.
28. amiaq (Posts: 509; Member since: 30 Jun 2012)
wow! that's really cheap!!
30. phyxius (Posts: 11; Member since: 10 May 2013)
This looks cheaply made, but hopefully has not not lost some of the key specs
31. roscuthiii (Posts: 2217; Member since: 18 Jul 2010)
Maybe the picture just doesn't do it justice... but I really expected a lot better. Even the color... that thing is hideous. I had to look at the calendar just to make sure we weren't coming up on April 1st.
34. iWinDroid (Posts: 28; Member since: 17 Jul 2013)
why don't you show the front side of this iPhone Lite.. its tiring seeing the back w/c is so cheap-looking.
35. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3576; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Seeing as the Nokia Lumia 520 is killing the iPhone in emerging markets it seems like a good idea for Apple to do this.. I'm interested in the bang for the buck compared to the 520... I'm sure that the "iPL" will be a good device if Apple makes it, but price point, and performance, are the key here... Do we even know if this iPhone is meant for the US market❔

Apple, why?!!??!!!

Risky Alternative Pain Treatments
Obviously, you need to be skeptical of any unproven or risky alternative pain treatments. What else should you be wary of?
Experts say you should keep your expectations for alternative pain treatments modest -- especially when it comes to "miracle cures." Controlling chronic pain is not simple. A single supplement, device, or treatment is not going to make your chronic pain disappear. Good chronic pain management usually requires time and the collaboration of experts, says Savage.
Savage says you also need to be suspicious of anyone pushing a treatment when the financial motive is blatant. That doesn't only apply to pain treatments advertised on dubious web sites asking for your credit card number.
"I think people should be careful whenever a person is making a living off of an untested pain remedy," says Savage. "So I'm concerned whenever I see providers selling their own expensive and unproven remedies. You need to be very careful."
Alternative Pain Treatments: Working With Your Doctor
If you're living with chronic pain, considering alternative treatments makes a lot of sense. But remember that even if a treatment is alternative, it has to be integrated with your overall pain management plan.
Don't try out these techniques on your own without your doctor's knowledge. Instead, you and your doctor should talk over the pros and cons of different approaches. What's most likely to help in your case? What will complement your other treatments?
Experts say that you should try to keep up to date with research into alternative treatments for chronic pain. The options for people with chronic pain are always growing -- and some of the odder treatments of today might become the mainstream treatments of tomorrow.

This past weekend we joined several other police, fire and medical personnel who live or work in Wilsonville and several other cities around the NW at Wildhorse Canyon http://sites.younglife.org/camps/Wildhorse/default.aspx in Antelope. Wildhorse Canyon may be better known as the former Rajneeshpuram head quarters before becoming a Young Life retreat resort. Young Life http://www.younglife.org/ is a non-denominational, Christian organization committed to impacting kids' lives and preparing them for the future. The weekend we were there Young Life had paired with First Call Families http://www.fcfamily.org/index.php. FCF was formed to support and strengthen the families of emergency responder professionals, including firefighters, police officers, emergency medical responders, 911 dispatchers, and others in law enforcement, all serving in city, county, state and federal agencies. The primary goal of FCF is to focus on the families of first responders, with a preventative approach to directly reduce the negative effects of these professions. Because these jobs are so stressful the divorce rates is as high as 84%, suicide rates can be as high as six times higher than the national average, there is also a major problem with children of first responders committing suicide and first responders suffer from significantly higher levels of alcohol, substance abuse and domestic violence. FCF wanted to create a place where the stress was gone, the kids could have fun, families could laugh and enjoy time together and Mom's could spend Mother's day weekend not having to worry about cooking or cleaning one single meal. It was amazing! From the zip line over the lake, the giant 3 person hydraulic swing, the outdoor pool, huge fitness center with rock wall and skate park it just went on and on. Each meal was gourmet and served to us on white table cloths. The kids watched a movie by the pool, families participated in a friendly Olympic competition on land and in the water, there was entertainment, an excellent Christian speaker, even a carnival for the kids. Nothing was missed and it was such a fun and relaxing treat for my family. They did it all for just $50 a family and they hope to do it gain next year as well as other events like it. FCF partners with churches, local businesses and individual families to try to support these men and women who put their personal safety on the line every day in order to protect and serve our communities. The organization is fairly new. It is based in Sandy, Oregon and they are expanding every day toward their goal of becoming a national organization. I can not say enough about this amazing group and what they are doing to help the every day heroes in our communities.
Local police, fire and medical get a well deserved vacation

text: Still...as I pointed out before the Tech Panel last year only had (e) or (no sign) for flutzes. I might sound stupid but I think an (e) sign could be given to an unclear take off which meant not all (e) were actually required to be be negative GOE where as this season it will. What I'm wondering is if the tech panel will be more prone to use (!) this year more frequently because of the severity of the penalty now associated with an (e). Obviously allowing some close calls that would normally be (e) to become (!) more frequently or are we going to see scores lowered this season and a lot more (e)? I mean do we now need to define egregious since that is the terminology used for applying an (e)? Maybe this really is a stupid question

Do photospheric magnetic fields show systematic changes which precede energetic events such as solar flares? The answer has proved elusive. We address this question by examining vector magnetic flux maps from the U. Hawai`i Imaging Vector Magnetograph (Mickey et al. 1996), which obtain full Stokes spectra over entire active regions every 4 minutes on average. We compare numerous parameters derived from the vector magnetograms of flaring active regions to those from comparable non-flaring active regions. In addition, we determine quantitative measurements of the complexity of the field topology using the Minimum-Current Corona analysis (Longcope 1996). The goal is to determine quantitative measurements of the complexity of the field topology, and determine whether variations in those measures correlate with or precede flare events.
This project was funded by AFOSR contract F49620-00-C-0004.

Bush Melee includes lessons on environmental values such as the negative impact of slash and burning on the forest, the importance of a healthy environment, and of livelihoods. The miniseries was developed by the Caribbean Natural Resources Institute (CANARI), Media Impact, and St Vincent and the Grenadines' civil society and forest stakeholders, during a workshop held in Kingston, St Vincent, in 2011.

Victor Wooten Band, Denver, CO, July 14, 2012
Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom
July 14, 2012
How low can you go? You can't go any lower than the Victor Wooten Band. The band is deep, it's low, it's almost all bottom. This is a band where five members play bass. That is to say, five bass players. In one band. They didn't all play at the same time. Saturday night, the most bassists we heard at one time were only four. That is to say, four bass players played at the same time. Frequently.
Morphine pioneered what the group called "low rock." But that band only had a two-string slide bass, a baritone sax and some drums. The only bands out there with as many bass players as the Victor Wooten Band are symphony orchestras. And those outfits tend to throw in a few dozen other players for good measure. The VWB has seven members. Wooten himself is a bassist and apparently he likes it so much he's surrounded himself with more bass.
Actually, all the band members are multi-instrumentalists. It just so happens that most of them play bass (at least part-time). Wooten himself started the evening on electric cello, with only three bassists behind him. The bandleader stuck to bass most of the eveningusually of the electric varietybut he also pulled out an acoustic bass, just to show everyone he could play that, too. He even strapped on a guitar for some scratchy funk on "Chameleon."
The instrument-switching occurred mid-song as often as it did between songs, requiring careful attention to keep track of what was going on. Bassists Steve Bailey and Dave Welsch doubled on trombone and trumpet respectively, and often picked up their horns with their basses still strapped on for a horn solo or some unison playing. Anthony Wellington was the most consistent bassist, staying in the deep end for most of the evening.
The only band members eschewing the bass were drummer Derico Watson and vocalist Krystal Peterson. Peterson doubled (tripled?) on keyboards and drums, while the other drummer, JD Blair, got into the bass action. Watson stuck with his drum kit for the entire evening.
The sound, as can be imagined, was deep and heavy. That's not only because most of the instruments dwelled in the bass clef, but also because the band was bursting with virtuosos which led, in turn, to lots of notes. When more than two basses were in action, one or more would work on the upper end of the fret-board to provide some sonic diversity. Throughout much of the evening, however, it was a little difficult to follow everything that was going on in the deep end. The concert environment is notoriously difficult to deliver crisp, defined bass sounds; even with some recent sonic upgrades at Cervantes, including the addition of baffles on the ceiling, the low-end sound was a bit muddy.
Nevertheless, when it counted, Wooten's bass came through with relative clarity. Not surprisingly, the band's namesake stood out front for a number of solos. Sometimes, he would play impossibly fast single-note lines, seemingly using all ten fingers at once. Another solo was mostly chords invoking a throaty guitar-like sound.
Wooten has earned a reputation as one of the top jazz bassists on the scene with his work over the years as a Flecktone, helping Bela Fleck bring the banjo back to jazz. Like the VWB, The Flecktones is a band of virtuosos, and the resulting sound is often fast, furious and intricate. The VWB shares some of those characteristics, but one big difference, besides all those denizens of the deep in the VWB, is vocals. Peterson was out front singing on over half of the tunes, with Wooten and other band members, including both drummers, adding backing vocals. Another difference between The Flecktones and the VWB is that, while The Flecktones play mostly original music, the VWB throws in covers on a regular basis.
Much of the instrumental playing was manic, frantic, dense and tense. Like the Flecktones, that's just what happens when you collect a number of instrumental masters, put them in one place and turn them loose. Many of the covers served to lighten the mood. Wooten pulled a couple from the Motown stable including "I Want You Back," a hit for the Jackson 5, and "Overjoyed" by Stevie Wonder. Equally soulful was "Tell Me Something Good."
Peterson, herself, was a contrast with her blonde pixie cut set against the serious backdrop of the male musicians predominately working on their bass guitars or drums. Bailey was a particular highlight of the evening. He holds the bass chair at the Berklee College of Music, and mostly played an electric, six-string fretless bassa feat that seemed to impress even Wooten. It was a massive instrument, but Bailey played it with a light, melodic touch. He and Wooten liberally sprinkled their solos with quotes ranging from Thelonious Monk to the Rolling Stones to The Wizard of Oz.

I just tried this on my SBLive platinum with Slack 11. I ran Audacity and
had the microphone plugged in and turned up in Audacity so I could hear
sound coming though it. Then I ran Kmix and alsamixer, in the alsamixer I
turned all the capture controls to 0 except BASS and TREBLE but still the
microphone worked. I looked in Kmix and I saw that there was a microphone
line under input that was still up. As you fiddle in alsamixer you can see
the controls in Kmix go up and down. Anyway the mic line that was still
working was not in the capture settings in alsamixer, it was in the
playback settings. In my system it is the 24th playback control across
beside it are CD and Mic Boos
See if you can find another Mic in the playback section and try that; my
card has 62 sound channel settings. I Guess that teaches us for having a
sound card that requires a PHD in fiddling just to find the right sound

Spa bliss at Alila
It's very hard to find great spas these days. Especially ones which produce their own spa range to go with. Yes, there's plentiful out there but who can get the perfect balance of location, treatments, products and great therapists?
We were almost blissed out entirely by Alila's attentive and supremely high standards in their resorts in Bali Manggis, Soori and Ubud. We road tested all three and found the quality in each outstanding. We recommend the Skinny Moccachino (slim down and scrub up) at Manggis, the sumptuous 90 minute signature massage at Ubud and the wild yam, papaya and lime wrap under the stars at Villas Soori – a beautifully designed beachside resort with stunning service.
Head to spa haven this summer at one of the Alila's in Bali, or why not try all three? Lastly, don't forget to take some of their spa range away with you. The volcanic mud soap is to die for while their Lemongrass and Ginger Body Scrub is divine.

Stevensville Mayor Gene Mim Mack received a letter last week from Governor Steve Bullock expressing the governor's appreciation for Mim Mack's efforts at addressing longstanding, institutionalized inequities in the pay between men and women doing the same jobs.
"I want to congratulate you on your successful effort to increase the salaries of Stevensville's Treasurer, Town Clerk and Utility Clerk to the average salary level of their male counterpart administrators," wrote Bullock.
The governor recently started an "Equal Pay for Equal Work" taskforce for the State of Montana to research and address the problem of gender pay inequality.
"I admire your collaboration with others to construct a budget to rectify the gender discrepancy within Stevensville's public office salaries… I appreciate you working alongside us to confront this challenge," wrote Bullock.
Mim Mack said that it was watching a recent PBS special on the women's rights movement that got him to thinking about it.
"They talked about gender pay inequity as an unresolved part of the movement," said Mim Mack.
He said that the town had been working on some new job descriptions related to the Town, Police and Court clerk duties. He took it as an opportunity to look at job descriptions across the board in relation to possible pay inequities. He analyzed all the job descriptions and their required certifications. What he found, he said, was that certain jobs that appeared to have similar responsibilities and requirements started out at a lower pay scale than the others. When he looked at the current employees filling those jobs he noted that the low starting pay was in jobs traditionally and currently filled by women.
By taking out raises due to longevity he calculated the base rate of the salary at the start of the job and found that the positions of Treasurer, Town Clerk and Utility Clerk started at a base rate about 12% lower than other similar positions within the Town's office.
Mim Mack said he first presented his findings and his recommendation to fix the discrepancy to all the employees and then presented it to the Council at the recent budget meetings. He said he heard no objections from the employees and the Council agreed with his analysis and included the 12% pay adjustment in the final budget.
"Once you've discovered a discrepancy like this, you have to solve it," said Mim Mack, "It just can't continue."
Councilor Bill Perrin said he had worked in a number of businesses where salaries had to be adjusted after getting out of balance.
"The real issue is we want to be paying fair wages, first of all, because that's how we keep employees," said Perrin at a recent council meeting. "That's what makes the town run and helps us to survive. I think it's nice the Governor recognized that, but it is something we just need to do in our own community."

A rare opportunity

Alumna dedicated to building relationships between India and KSU celebrates Hindu festival at the White House
KENNESAW, Ga. (Dec. 2, 2013) – When it comes to making connections, Rifka Mayani (MBA, '97) is always looking for new opportunities.
When she is not working on her day job as associate director of Enterprise Systems and Services at Kennesaw State University, Mayani is busy with a myriad of activities designed to promote Indian culture throughout the community. In just 17 years since she came from India to Kennesaw State for an MBA degree, Mayani has been identifying new avenues for building relationships.
"I always wanted a connection between India and the U.S.," Mayani said. "On campus, my mission has been to put India on KSU's map and KSU on India's map – in whatever form I can make that happen."
That mission has put her at the heart of events in the Indian American community in Atlanta and even earned her a recent invitation to the White House in Washington, D.C., where she was among a handful of eminent Indian Americans from across the U.S. celebrating "Diwali."
Communicating through dance
The center of her mission has been the love for performing Bharathanatyam, an Indian classical dance-art form. Trained in the dance form from an early age of 6 under the renowned Guru Shri Kalyansundaram Pillai, Mayani had the opportunity for numerous public performances in the U.S., including her presentations for consul generals, at the Unveiling of the Sari at the High Museum of Art, for all the Continuing Education deans in the University System of Georgia, and even at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games.
"It's a very beautiful and intricate dance form," Mayani said.
The dance has been a part of the Kennesaw State community since she was a student and Akanmu Adebayo, then director of the Institute for Global Initiatives, asked her to perform on campus. In front of a packed house at the Stillwell Theatre, Mayani presented a 2½ hour solo Bharatnatyam performance with complete hand-designed, full-stage props.
Now she brings her love for Bharatnatyam dance to jazz, ballet, and tap KSU-dance students, as she teaches the Indian dance class every fall through the KSU College of the Arts and also operates a small, private dance academy in Atlanta. Many of the students she trains have performed at events throughout the community.
Mayani is a frequent speaker to classrooms throughout Kennesaw State as well as schools around Atlanta, about Indian art and culture.
"Dance is at the core of those talks, and then I diversify into wherever they need me to go," she said.
That emphasis on promoting cooperation keeps her focused on her goals.
"I play two sides – when I'm out in the community, I talk about KSU," she said. "From the KSU perspective, I talk about dance and culture – those are aspects I've been able to help in."
Campus connections
On campus, Mayani has been instrumental as a voice for global learning. She was one of the first to send out a call for creating the India Faculty and Staff Association, and subsequently she has been heavily involved in the annual Indian Cultural Festival.
"It's our way of showcasing the Indian culture to KSU," she said.
The festival, which just celebrated its fourth year in November, has drawn attendees from across the region, including the first Indian consul general for the Southeastern United States, in Atlanta.
As part of her outreach efforts, Mayani worked with the Center for Student Leadership and the Coles College of Business on developing connections with schools in India. Along with other Kennesaw State representatives, she visited five institutions of higher education in India to establish relationships for "creating leadership."
"If we create synergies between student leaders globally, they will become better partners in the future," Mayani said of the exchange program.
Mayani has also worked closely with the Confucius Institute at Kennesaw State, providing artistic expertise at several events during the past five years, which just recently earned her an appreciation award issued by the Institute at its fifth anniversary celebrations. She has also served as the vice-chair for SAUPO (Symposium on Asia-USA Partnership Opportunities) since its inception.
Mayani has expertise in a variety of fields, which have given her many new opportunities over the years. In addition to her MBA from Kennesaw State in 1997, Mayani has a Bachelor's in Law from Government Law College and a B.A. in political science from St. Xavier's University of Mumbai, India.
Her work in Enterprise Systems grew from a student assistantship that started in the KSU ITS labs. She worked her way up to assistant director for training and student support before taking a full-time faculty position for two years teaching Business Information Systems Management in the Coles College of Business. For the past five years, she has been the associate director for Enterprise Systems, where she oversees a large portfolio that includes software development, system implementations and integrations for the the Kennesaw State campus.
A rare opportunity
Mayani and her family – her husband, Viren, and two daughters, Hansinee and Nishtha – are quite active in the Indian American community in Atlanta and nationwide. Viren is on several boards, including the Asian American Heritage Foundation, the Georgia Symphony Orchestra besides a few others and will start his term as President of the Georgia Indo-American Chamber of Commerce in January 2014.
"We do whatever we can to give back to the community and use the talents we have," Mayani said.
Both were heavily involved as liaisons for athletes during the Atlanta Paralympic Games in 1996 and then again during the Special Olympics World Games in Raleigh, N.C., three years later.
Recognized for their work with the Asian American Diaspora, the couple was invited to the White House Diwali Celebrations by Hon. Gautam Raghavan, the White House Public Engagement Advisor, for the event in early November 2013. The two were among a handful of eminent Indian Americans to join an elite group of 175 to participate in the sacred and revered celebration, hosted by first lady Michelle Obama.
The event celebrating the Hindu festival of lights included members of the Obama administration, White House staffers, decorated officers and their families.
During her remarks, Obama reflected on the festival's traditions. "Diwali is a time for celebration... It's a time to come together with friends and family, often with dancing and good food. But Diwali is also a time for contemplation and reflection. It's a time for us to think about our obligations to our fellow human beings, particularly those who are less fortunate than we are."
The formal festivities included Obama lighting a traditional Diya, or lamp, in the Blue Room of the White House. A reception followed in the State Room with traditional music and strictly vegetarian food, in keeping with the auspiciousness.
"It was an extreme honor for us," Mayani said. "We felt like we were royalty. They were very deliberate to ensure we had a good time. It was so tastefully done – just wonderful."
Mayani also took time to make new relationships and meet with several "movers and shakers" in the Indian American community, including Kiran Ahuja, the executive director of the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders; Gautam Raghavan, the White House Public Engagement Advisor; and Nakul Dev Mahajan, a top choreographer of the "So You Think You Can Dance" television show.
For Mayani, the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity gave her another chance to fulfill her mission of putting KSU on the map.

Originally published at: http://www.howtogeek.com/172580/how-to-create-a-separate-data-partition-for-windows/
Windows normally installs itself to a single partition on your hard drive. However, you can split your hard drive into several different partitions and store your data files separately from your system files.
Say what?EDIT: Nice article, now I'll just link to it rather than telling everyone how to.
i never keep anything on the operating system drive / partition. it all goes to a separate hard drive that's also backed up by another hard drive.
Will this work on a RAID 10, 3X 1tb drive setup?I have 2 other matching 1tb drives running just for storage, mainly ISO files. Don't want to move all my data files to the extra drives as that will defeat the speed increase of the RAID.Just wondering if there is a better/more efficient way to use all these drives?
Good article. It describes what I've been doing for years, and telling others to do. Hopefully MS will catch up to the present and make it the default install method for Win9
However, you missed the MOST IMPORTANT first step!
*!!!Do a FULL IMAGE COPY BACKUP before starting this process!!!!*
When making any significant changes to the HD, like partitioning and/or installing a new OS, you NEED to have an image copy to fall back to just in case / when something goes wrong. Because you know, if you don't make the backup, you WILL need it!
Looks like some script messed up and didn't post the actual summary!
Good point on backups. I haven't had many problems using this feature but it's always a potential issue. Added.
With separate data partition, When i upgrade windows xp to windows 7 , my data will be lost? Please reply.
If you format the data partition during installation of Windows 7, yes.
Otherwise, no.
Like to have access to this info as well. I have a similar setup but using RAID 10 with 4 matched 1Tb drives. Mirrored for backup security, and stripped for speed. Granted it cost you lose 1/2 your space reducing 4Tb to only 2, and of course it consumes allot of drive bays, but 1Tb drives are cheap enough to make it worth it for me. RAID 0 and RAID 1. Should eliminate the need for back-ups. If a drive fails you just pop in a new one and it'll rebuild its self.
I am not a fan of moving the default folders with the Location tab. Two reasons:
The method I use is to create new folders on the Data partition with slightly different names - e.g. Documents2, etc. and INLUDE those into the respective library.
It is still a good practice to back up and/or make an image whenever installing an OS or doing partitioning operations. Shit does happen once in a while. Better safe than sorry.

"When I think of the word "personal hero," many faces come up. My heroes have protected me in times of need and made me who I am today. However, my ultimate heroes are my parents. My parents have done so much; moving to a foreign country for my education, working over 12 hours a day to support me, and most importantly, teaching me the true meaning of perseverance. My parents may not have saved lives, but to me, true heroes are people that help others, and my parents have helped me reach the impossible. "

Question details
I have been reading recently about 'Yacon Tubers'. These are a staple food for people of the Andes.
That's a great link for study - thanks, Glenn! Good for diabetics, sweet, high in inulin - very interesting. I have some diabetic friends. I wonder if Sweet Potatoes & Yams are high in Inulin? To be determined ... Jerusalem Artichokes are also high in inulin & some varieties are sweeter than others. I read that JA crops are a commercial source of fructose. We have quite a few Peruvian people in our community. I will ask some acquaintances if they have grown Yacon Tubers.
I grew them here in Ann Arbor last year. Tasty and easy: yes! Easy to save offshoots for future: yes! However, it is a LARGE plant that may shade surrounding areas, so for those of us with limited space, trying to grow many types of vegetables, they are not nearly as productive as potatoes for the same space.
Could you quantify "large"? I have never seen a Yacon Tuber plant & I am wondering from the differing reports if YTs normally grow in a less fertile soil & possibly make more foliage if they get more gardeney fertilizer? Now I have to go to Google Images & try for a photo glimpse. :-)
Yacon is a very beautiful plant and worth growing for the foliage alone. It grows very easily at my place on heavy soil facing north east. I live south of Melbourne Australia and do not have frosts, though I don't think they would be a problem. It is like a big Dahlia ( with tiny yellow daisy flowers)about 1.3 m tall-4 to 5 ft. The foliage degenerates and I cut it down to the ground in winter. My only problem is that I have no idea how to cook it! I have tried slicing it finely and adding it to salads-it adds a good crunch-but apart from that....... It is incredibly productive, so if anyone knows any receipes I would love to try them
Hi Janie, how is it going with your yacon? I only just harvested mine last week. I left it in the ground over winter and it came to no harm at all, and harvested because there was a bit of green popping up. Next season's plants were wanting to grow. You want recipes...just google yacon recipes, there is so much on the net, but I turned all mine into syrup, left the story on the blog. Go have a look.
I grew yacon in my Atlanta front yard last year & it's a great plant...think sweet (like a perky apple or pear) water chestnut.After I harvested it... I chilled and then pealed it & ate it. I could eat a lot of this. I obtained a 3gal size 'chunk' of yacon (as u said, like dahlias) from a market grower in athens...smitten, I was for its leaf...& it was different. I want more so I'm going to plant all little tuber-ettes this fall.
How to make Yacon Syrup. Sorry about the code showing - this happens when you paste a link or message into the Drupal comment box - hello Drupal ... JS@font-face { font-family: "Times New Roman";}@font-face { font-family: "Lucida Grande";}p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal { margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Lucida Grande"; }table.MsoNormalTable { font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; }div.Section1 { page: Section1; } Here's a link to a wonderfully informative, photo-illustrated article about making Yacon Syrup. I think the method might work for Jerusalem Artichoke Syrup as well ... http://permaculture.org.au/2011/08/16/yacon-syrup/ Yacon Syrup by Zaia Kendall "... We had an over-abundant supply of yacon that had to be harvested. Yacon (also known as ground apple) grows very easy in our (sub-tropical) climate — one plant produces many rhizomes for division and re-planting. It needs very little attention when in the ground and Tom is of the opinion that it improves the soil where it has grown..."
Hi, I just got back from Bolivia where I learned a bit about yacon there. It was completely different from how I've seen it marketed in the U.S. Here, I've seen it sold as a sweetener. When I tasted a freshly sliced piece of yacon in Bolivia, it was slightly sweet, kind of like a sweet-ish version of jicama. I have been posting about what I learned on my trip on my blog at http://www.lavidalocavore.org and I'll post a piece that includes what I learned about yacon in a day or two. (I'm going chronologically, so the next piece I'm doing is about coca, and the one after that is an intro to native Andean crops with photos and info on everything.) As a gardener, my take-away from looking at the enormous yacon root we saw in Bolivia is: wow, it would be a pain in the butt to dig up and harvest that! But not impossible, of course. Esp if you have nice, loose soil (I don't).
Can you harvest throughout the season by digging out bits aorund the sides? We call that bandicooting here, since we have these rodents called bandicoots who dig with their long noses looking for bugs.
The plant was probably about 5 feet tall and perhaps filled an area 5X5 feet and yielded perhaps 3-5 lbs of tubers total. Compared to Jerusalem artichokes in the same sq feet, the yield was perhaps 5% as much--20-fold down. Whether that was just Ann Arbor or what, I couldn't say.
Greetings from New Zealand. I just harvested my first crop (9 plants), and was so impressed I will be planting out an entire row for next season. I have a ton of risomes to put back in the ground. My plants reached about 6 feet, but they went in late in the season. They are going in early this year so should get higher. I found I got a better crop from the ground, not so good from tubs, so I will not use tubs again. I got few flowers, but next season will get more as they will have more time to flower. (I really want to experiment with seeds, and luckily I have lots of bees around here) The leaves are hairy, but I still used them in salads, the flavour is not great, but the nutrition is supreme and that's what counts. Next season I will harvest a lot of leaves and dry them for tea, and crush them into powder to sprinkle on cat food for their health. I just love learning more about how super yacon is on the super food scale, and it's medicinal properties are amazing. You really should NOT waste the leaves, you can do so much with them. I had so much yacon that I ate little, and processed the rest into yacon syrup. It took a whole day. Next season I plan for it to take 3 or 4 days as I will have so many tubers. My syrup came out great, very very happy. It is dark in colour because the fruit oxodises very quickly. Tips to offer: I was not happy with the condition of the pulp, and my juicer is a very good one, but there can be a lot of waste with yacon, that is the nature of the stuff, the pulp contains so much more liquid, so I re-processed the pulp 3 more times till it was really dry. By re-processing the pulp I nearly doubled my yield, and ended up with a much higher ratio of tubers:syrup than all the web sites suggested. Before I started I calculated how much syrup I would get based on other people's yields and thought wow it isn't much really, but re-processing the pulp till dry made a mighty difference, so that's how to do it people. I was very happy with the result :) I can bet you the commercial guys don't throw out soggy pulp! Also, something I will try next season is processing a lot of my tubers into yacon and lemon syrup for golden colour and tangy taste. I will start with a large bowl of lemon juice, and the yacon will go straight into that after it is peeled. The goal is no oxodisation, no dis-colouration, and syrup with a lovely golden colour. Yacon and lemon is expensive to buy so I will make my own. I loved this season, it was my first experience with yacon, but wow I am really looking forward to next season and will get by risomes back into the ground in the next few days.

Following a February filing of a patent infringement lawsuit by MMRGlobal against WebMD (NASDAQ: WBMD ) , the two sides agreed in June to try and resolve the matter outside of the courtroom. However, MMR said today that after investing a total of "nearly eight months in good faith negotiations with WebMD," it has decided to refile the suit.
The original suit alleged that WebMD infringed on MMR patents involving its personal health record (PHR) and related technologies. MMR said it has since received another patent it claims WebMD may be infringing upon, and intends to include it in the soon-to-be refiled lawsuit.
MMRGlobal said in its press release that "the door will always be open to a fair negotiated resolution."
In response to a request for statement, WebMD said, "We believe the plaintiff's claims are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against them."
