IS IT TRUE? Part 2 April 28, 2011
IS IT TRUE that CCO MOLE #3 informs us that 1st Ward City Councilman, Dan McGinn recently sent the Evansville City Controller an interesting e-mail? ….that Councilman McGinn has been trying to get City Controller Jenny Collins to send an itemization of the City of Evansville legal services budget? ….that Councilman McGinn also states in his e-mail that City Attorney David Jones told him that he would send a copy of his contract detailing his duties and fees as approved by the Board of Public Works?…..that City Controller Collins sent Mr. McGinn an e-mail back? …that the e-mail had the following message–“We have been working with JWF the City’s third party administrator for the liability insurance on getting a three year average of the charges broken out so that we can put together a realistic detailed line item of the budget. We are very close to having this complete; I hope that within the next two weeks to have detailed budget line for the liability insurance to Council. I forwarded your e-mail to David Jones regarding the contract and will be getting a copy of that to Council members also”?….that all City Council members (even including Don Walker) were forwarded a copy of both e-mails? …that Jonathan Weinzapfel, Rose Young, David Jones, Lauren Jones, Elizabeth Barnes and Katy Nimnicht also were copied on these e-mails?…we wonder who were the 4 CCO MOLES sent these e-mails to CCO MOLE #3?
IS IT TRUE we want to publically thank Mulzer Crushed Stone for donating free sand to make sand bags to protect homes from being flooded?…that the City County Observer is proud to have Mulzer Crushed Stone as a member of this community? Oh, IS IT ALSO TRUE that we are extremely proud of the outstanding work that our local RED CROSS volunteers are doing in times like these
IS IT TRUE that the Evansville MSA was just singled out by the Gallup-Healthways survey to be the most obese MSA in the entire United States of America?…that our home tops the scales with a full 37.8% of our population considered to be obese?…that the determination of obesity is made if one’s body mass index is over 30?…that a 6 foot tall person that tipped the scales at 221 pounds would have a BMI of 30 and would be at the lowest end of obesity?…that the formula for BMI is available for you to use at the following link?

IS IT TRUE that obesity is associated with all sorts of health problems like diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heart attack?…that economically obesity correlates well with high health insurance costs, low productivity, and depression?…that depression correlates very well with suicide?…that Evansville also ranks at the top of the list for suicide?…that maybe one of the most effective solutions to our economic problems and our suicide problems starts with a healthy diet and an exercise program?…that one municipal vehicle touting healthy lifestyles in the same fleet as many vehicles peddling large portions of fast food sends conflicting signals to the population?…that if Evansville is to get serious about economics it should first get serious about health?…that like picking up litter, this solution is FREE or may just save some money?…that “YUM YUM EAT EM UP†should not be the theme song for Evansville?
IS IT TRUE that the full study is available on the CCO?
Yum Yum Eat em Up!!!
