This document provides information about the New York State WIC program in Cortland County. It summarizes that WIC offers complimentary health screenings and nutritional education to help eligible pregnant/postpartum women, infants, and children up to age 5 choose nutritious meals. The income eligibility guidelines shown vary by household size but allow participants to cut their weekly grocery costs while maintaining a healthy diet. Contact information is provided for those wanting to determine if they qualify for the program.
Cross-project defect prediction is very appealing because (i) it allows predicting defects in projects for which the availability of data is limited, and (ii) it allows producing generalizable prediction models. However, existing research suggests that cross-project prediction is particularly challenging and, due to heterogeneity of projects, prediction accuracy is not always very good.
This paper proposes a novel, multi-objective approach for cross-project defect prediction, based on a multi-objective logistic regression model built using a genetic algorithm. Instead of providing the software engineer with a single predictive model, the multi-objective approach allows software engineers to choose predictors achieving a compromise between number of likely defect-prone artifacts (effectiveness) and LOC to be analyzed/tested (which can be considered as a proxy of the cost of code inspection).
Results of an empirical evaluation on 10 datasets from the Promise repository indicate the superiority and the usefulness of the multi-objective approach with respect to single-objective predictors. Also, the proposed approach outperforms an alternative approach for cross-project prediction, based on local prediction upon clusters of similar classes.

Hungry and Heavy: What ingredients are needed for change?ghpc
Debra Kibbe, senior research associate with the Georgia Health Policy Center, recently presented "Hungry and Heavy: What ingredients are needed for change?" at the Southeastern Executive Chef’s Table in Georgia. This event was a twelve-state summit on nutrition in the south and included a focus on outdoor activity and the use of Georgia State Parks.
Explore the measures and metrics that aided the Snohomish County Health Leadership Coalition, in their search of a Strategic Focus and how the LiveHealthy2020 initiative came to be. Consider the ways that Snohomish County can work together and measure their success of a Countywide scale.
Women, Infants & Children (WIC) is a federally funded program that faced great threat in lieu of the federal government shut down. It also revealed the American Public's lack of knowledge regarding the program and its history. This presentation has been created with the hope that it will raise awareness about the noble efforts of WIC.
Introduction Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) .docxnormanibarber20063
Introduction
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) has served as the foundation of America's national nutrition safety net, working to end hunger and improve the health of low-income people by helping families buy the food they need for a nutritionally adequate diet.
1
Qualification
In order to qualify, you must have an annual household income (before taxes) that is below the following amounts:
Household SizeMaximum Income Level (Per Year)1$15,4442$20,8263$26,2084$31,5905$36,9726$42,3547$47,7498$53,157
According to the South Carolina Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
The benefits are not intended to cover all of a family's food costs, but will lessen the amount of income that must be used toward groceries each month. Families, people living alone, and people living with roommates use SNAP. People who are homeless can get SNAP benefits too. People of all ages are a part of SNAP.
For households with more than eight people, add $5,408 per additional person. Always check with the appropriate managing agency to ensure the most accurate guidelines.
