Not many proper linux phones around, if you don't want Android. Also 32gb or more flash clashes a bit with "inexpensive".
Did you look at N9?
Hello my dear geeks and geekettes.
Need an advice. I want to buy inexpensive phone.
What I don't want: Windows platform(even when can be killed with fire and soaked in acid later on); Sony; Apple; Nokia; Android(will accept if it's repatchable to something else or allows visualization of of some mobile aimed Linux distribution).
What I do want in descending order: Linux; perfectly working; I can mess with it; MP3 player; upgradeable SD cards or reasonable amount of memory on the phone(25 > Gigs); reasonable speed of device; reasonable battery life (expectation is rather low anyway);GPS; Wireless connection, LAN connection(I can dream, right?)
I used to have OpenMoko, but it sucked donkey balls.(nice toy, useless phone) Is there something like OpenMoko, but doesn't, you know, suck, those, donkey nuts?
It will be pretty much my phone(good reception please, live in bunker, figuratively)/MP3 player(VERY Important!)/alarm clock, occasionally gaming platform and browser.
Ideally would be cool to have either Linux over visualization(it can be done, my buddy reported such thing with Ubuntu on his android, probably some emulation) or native Linux, where I can install source applications, but it MUST work well as phone and not drain battery in 4 hours as with Open Moko.
I am based, in so much beloved by Michael, Germany(any one from Saxony, Gorlitz? Wanna go for a beer?). Triband/Quad band is appreciated, whatever it takes to work in EU.
Any suggestions are welcome, and no, googling didn't help.

Maybe Tizen? Not released yet - but looks promising.
Just go with an android phone that is reasonably easy to hack with and comes with an SD card. Check the xda-developer's wiki for info on bootloaders, etc.
There are always quirks.
I bought Nvidia gtx 470, i payed extra 20 euro for overclocker card.
i used it for around a year, decided to overclock it. There is no overclock on this line of nvidia cards! And how was i supposed to know it?(i did check if card works properly on Linux, but it was not enough obviously)
i just want something that works and is reasonable simple to configure. thats why i asked advice.

Classic 3-Ingredient Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
Perfect, light and fluffy, homemade buttermilk biscuits used to elude me until I learned a few "secrets" and I have perfect biscuits every time now.Hand Formed Biscuits |
Iron Skillet Biscuits |
Joe D: I tried your Perfect Southern Buttermilk Biscuits recipe this morning. Outstanding tips. These were the best biscuits I've ever made. Thanks for the tips.
Now, I'm gonna let you in on my most important, secret tips to getting those perfect Southern buttermilk biscuits.
Secret #1 - Preheat the skillet. Just as you do with Southern cornbread, coat a cast iron skillet or with shortening, or butter or spray a rimmed baking sheet or cake pan with non-stick cooking spray. Preheat it in the oven just like with cornbread for about 5 minutes.
Secret #2 - Use very cold, self rising flour, and for the best biscuits, use a soft, winter wheat flour - like White Lily brand - and yes, it does make a difference! Just stick the flour in a bowl in the freezer the night before you plan to make biscuits. Do not substitute all purpose flour.
Secret #3 - Use very cold fat from the refrigerator. It can be lard, vegetable shortening or pure butter, but my preference is butter. If using butter, cut the very cold butter half into cubes. Cut into the flour first using two knives or a pastry cutter until crumbly. When first learning to make biscuits avoid using your hands.
Secret #4 - Use buttermilk. Real buttermilk, not a vinegar and milk substitute. All good Southern biscuits contain real buttermilk. Period. If you don't tend to use buttermilk in your cooking, it will keep awhile, so just keep practicing on your biscuits with it and put some up in the freezer.
Secret #5 - Cold dough. Remember, a successful fluffy and light biscuit comes from keeping the dough cold and not handling it too much. The heat from your hands will melt the butter, so until you get to the point where you can literally mix and shape biscuits in about 5 minutes, use a gentle and soft touch because you do not want the dough to get warm!
Secret #6 - Folding. After quickly kneading, push the dough into a rectangle and fold the short sides in toward middle one on top of the other. Turn the dough, shape into a rectangle again and repeat. Repeat this folding once more for a total of three times and pat into desired thickness, usually about an inch or less. If you cut the biscuits too thick, they will quickly rise and lean over. The dough folding action creates flaky layers in the biscuits.
Secret #7 - No twisting! Use a cutter about 2 to 3 inches in size, cut them very close together and take care not to twist the biscuit cutter, whether it be a cutter or a juice glass, but only push down and lift up on the cutter. Twisting will cause the fibers in the edges of the biscuit to close and result in a flatter and more dense biscuit. So just press down and lift up - no twisting!!
Secret #8 - Spacing. I like to do my buttermilk biscuits in a skillet, like I do my cornbread, which produces a crunchy crust on the bottom and soft edges. You may also bake them on a half sheet, rimmed baking pan or in a small greased cake pan. For biscuits that have more crunch all the way around, space them about an inch apart from each other. For soft biscuits, place them close together.
Secret #9 - High temperature. Bake your biscuits in a preheated 500 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Now, let's go make some biscuits!
Recipe: Classic 3-Ingredient Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Cook time: 12 min | Yield: About 6 to 12 biscuits
- 2 cups of cold soft, winter wheat, self-rising Southern flour (like White Lily brand)
- 1/4 cup very cold butter, shortening or lard
- 3/4 cup cold real buttermilk
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Coat a 10 inch cast iron skillet with additional shortening or oil and place into the oven for 5 minutes. Put the flour into a bowl and cut the very cold butter into cubes and toss in the flour. Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut butter into flour until it is crumbly. Add buttermilk and use a fork to mix very lightly. Dough will be very shaggy.
Put a bit of additional flour on the countertop and scoop dough out. Sprinkle a small amount of flour over the top and gently push together to form a rectangle. Do not overhandle the dough. Take the short sides of the rectangle and fold them in toward the middle, turn the dough, gently press down into a rectangle again and repeat. Repeat this folding once more and pat into desired thickness, usually about an inch. This folding creates flaky layers in the biscuits.
Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a small juice glass, cut out into rounds, taking care not to twist the cutter and gently gather scraps for the last biscuits. Transfer biscuits to the prepared skillet or baking pan and bake at 500 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
Cook's Notes: This recipe uses self-rising, Southern soft wheat flour. Do not use regular all purpose flour.
Herbed Biscuit Variation: Add up to 1 tablespoon of fresh, chopped herbs. Good choices include sage, chives, parsley, dill, thyme, or a combination. Reduce to about 2 teaspoons max if using dried herbs. Make biscuits a smaller tea size for a potluck, church supper or a party and fill with Chutney Chicken Salad.

I`ve been thinking of making some specialty End Caps. What material is recommended to use to make my own end caps then I can turn them on my lathe and put a O Ring groove in them and also install shaft and push rod seals in it that can be stuck in place to the material? Long winded question, Sorry.
I thought about Marine bondo from my local Canadian hardware supply. Sorry forgot that to mention, I`m in Canada and thanks to the U.S shipping rates now, it`s cheaper to buy locally, most of the time.
Please let me know what would be a good, water proof, shrink resistant OR do I compensate for the shrinkage rate and make a little larger to compensate for the expected shrinkage. I like the idea of mixing a paste and pouring it into a round mold and going from there BUT I also like the cone shape motor end end cap shape as well.
Thanks for the Help.

Helping each other pay it forward
Alicia KnadlerIndian Valley Editor
In Plumas and Lassen counties, people in need are benefiting from members of fraternal groups and other organizations who are joining together in efforts to pay it forward.
Two such groups are the Elks Lodge 2626 of Lake Almanor and Mountain Circle Family Services of Lassen and Plumas counties, as well as a newer location in the Reno area.
Elks members recently traveled to the Greenville office of Mountain Circle to give director Shauna Rossington a $2,000 check, which she accepted gratefully. "Funding is getting cut everywhere," she said, "so everything helps."
The donation will make summer camp possible for many of the kids in foster care she added.
The money was raised during the 2009 Wheel Around Lake Almanor, an annual Elks fundraiser to provide support for those in the community who have been seriously injured or who are gravely ill, and for local agencies that provide needed community services
The list of people who have become regular supporters over the course of the 12-year history of the event has grown to include a Canadian who attended last year and sent a check this year.
The theme of the event this year will be loyalty, an expression of gratitude for many loyal donors who have supported their efforts in so many ways.
People and groups who have been the beneficiaries of much-needed support in the past have come forward to help. The newest beneficiaries are the foster children placed by Mountain Circle Family Services.
Mountain Circle is a community-based organization dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of children and families.
By offering a continuum of services that emphasize the inherent value and strengths of families, it seeks to promote the physical, emotional and educational health of children, improving _outcomes for future generations.
Mountain Circle's goal is to build healthy family relationships for employees, foster families and for foster children with their birth families.
An array of services include therapeutic and supportive services, reunification support, training for foster parents, adoption training in California, treatment teams, routine medical, dental and educational care, a 24-hour emergency system and many other services to help foster parents in their desire to help foster children.
Some of the foster children are transitioning into adulthood, with all the responsibility that entails.
A newer program at Mountain Circle is for those youths, which entails another array of services, such as transitional housing, life skills training, employment help and other services.
Nu 2 U, a thrift shop, opened last fall in Susanville, where there is also transitional housing available for youth ages 19 - 24.
There are currently four youth employed, and they are gaining valuable marketing and retail skills according to Mountain Circle staff members.
Area adults Edie Aperton and Curtis Weight are the store managers, and they are creating an environment that is customer friendly with quality products and prices.
The store's mission is to employ foster youth and to use the revenue generated to enhance and support the transitional housing program for these youth.
The state cut funding for the transitional program, so the goal is for the shop to sustain it, and volunteers are always welcome to come and help support their mission.
The Nu 2 U Thrift Shop at 732 Main St. in Susanville, is open Mondays - Saturdays, from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
WALA history
The Wheels Around Lake Almanor idea was conceived in summer 1998, when Lake Almanor Elks member Dave Henise and his wife, Suzie, were enjoying dinner with good friends and wheelchair athlete Randy Fossum and his wife, Diane.
Suzie asked Randy if he ever considered pushing his racing wheelchair around Lake Almanor. He agreed to give it a try.
With support from Dave and Diane, Suzie rode her bicycle and Randy pushed his racing chair over the 34-mile course around the lake in just over three hours.
For their efforts Dave made a $34 donation ($1 for each mile of the ride) to the Elks scholarship fund, and WALA was born.
The next year, Randy invited two more wheelchair athletes to join him, and the Henises started a pledge drive to raise additional funds.
As the years went by the number of participating athletes increased, including several national and world champions, the donations grew each year and the number of people WALA has assisted continues to rise.
To date, WALA has raised more than $100,000 and has provided support for numerous individuals and families in need.
WALA has also purchased a wheelchair for the Chester library, helped fund an adult literacy program, an after-school study program, Sierra Hospice, Seneca Healthcare District long-term care facility and the Almanor Basin Community Center.
Donations may be sent to Wheel Around Lake Almanor, c/o Lake Almanor Elks Lodge 2626, P.O. Box 1329, Chester CA 96020.

How 2 Internet Connections are better than 1
Jun 06 2014 07:43 PM in Insight
I have lived in the Digital Home for almost 20 years and during that time, I have signed up with six internet service providers: Acanac, Bell, Rogers, Primus, Teksavvy and Echo On-line. For those that don't recognize it, Echo On-line was a local dial up provider which offered Internet service long before Bell and Rogers.
My first "always on" connection was through Bell Sympatico which I gave up on after about 4 years due to poor service.

Asus RT-AC68U: A Digital Home failure
Jun 06 2014 02:55 PM in Insight
Over the last several months our household, which for the last 15 years I have called the Digital Home, began experiencing internet connectivity issues which resulted in less than optimal WiFi performance, a dropped VoIP telephone call or two, along with Netflix and MLB.TV dropouts.
After a considerable amount of investigation and head scratching, I concluded that the bulk of the problems were due to a combination of an overloaded WiFi network and a somewhat flakey cable internet connection.

Zazeen vs. Vmedia: A Canadian Internet Television showdown
Apr 14 2014 08:43 PM in Insight
In the last year, a tiny crack in the Canadian Television distribution oligopoly has emerged from two Over-The-Top (OTT) Internet television providers, Zazeen and Vmedia.
Rather than distributing television channels using traditional cable or satellite technologies, these television distributors are providing consumers with access to television channels in the same manner Netflix is distributing TV shows and movies to consumers, over the internet.

Can someone find me if they know my Internet address?

You've probably seen it many times in a movie or tv show. The cops are hunting for the bad guy when they find out the villain has posted something on a social media website. Two minutes later the cops find out the crooks internet address and seconds after the commercial has ended, they are banging down the bad guys door.
So is it possible, can cops, bad guys or even worse, an overzealous marketer, track you down if they know your internet address?

Global PC Shipments fell 1.7% in first quarter

Global personal computer shipments, which includes laptops, desktops and Windows 8 tablets but not Chromebooks or other tablets, totalled 76.6 million units in the first quarter of 2014, a decline of 1.7% from the first quarter of 2013, according to preliminary results by Gartner.
The numbers might have even been worse at it not been for the fact that many firms were buying computers ahead of April 8th, the final day of Windows XP support.

Maholm pits scoreless streak vs. former team Bucs
Maybe Paul Maholm's former team can figure out how to score against him.
The Braves left-hander, the lone Major League starter yet to be scored upon this season, takes his 20 1/3 scoreless-inning streak into Saturday's game against the Pirates at PNC Park.
Maholm spent his first seven years in Pittsburgh before departing as a free agent following the 2011 campaign. He signed with the Cubs, who flipped him to the Braves last July, but has faced his former club three times since his departure.
The lefty apparently knows his former teammates' weaknesses better than they know his repertoire, however, as Maholm has a 2.25 ERA in three starts against the Pirates.
Maholm will be pitching in a familiar setting -- Saturday marks his 100th career start at PNC Park -- but in somewhat unusual territory. The up-start Braves have dropped two of their last three since seeing their 10-game winning streak snapped.
The Pirates, meanwhile, have won five of seven, and on Saturday send right-hander James McDonald to the hill. McDonald took one of those losses, on Monday against the Cardinals when he allowed eight runs (three earned) in 1 2/3 innings.
McDonald's 2012 second-half struggles seem to have followed him into this season, though Saturday's matchup could help: he's 3-0 in his career against the Braves, including sporting a 1.73 ERA in four starts.
Braves: Freeman begins rehab
First baseman Freddie Freeman (strained right oblique) was 0-for-3 with a walk as the designated hitter on Friday in his first game of a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett. He's expected to play first base Saturday and Sunday and, if all goes well, be activated for Monday's series opener against the Rockies at Coors Field.
• The Braves are 13-0 when homering.
Pirates: Keeping the lead
Pittsburgh improved to 7-0 when leading after seven innings on Friday, a record that has much to do with the back of the Pirates bullpen.
Set-up man Mark Melancon has made seven eighth-inning appearances, retiring all 21 batters he's faced, while closer Jason Grilli is unscored upon in his first seven games and is a perfect 5-for-5 in save opportunities.
• Neil Walker's next home run will be the 40th of his career as a Pirates second baseman, tying him with George Grantham for second on the franchise's all-time list. Bill Mazeroski's 137 homers lead the way.
• Garrett Jones' next homer at PNC Park would be his 46th at PNC Park, putting him alone in third place for the most home runs at the ballpark. He's currently tied with Brian Giles, while Jason Bay (61) and Craig Wilson (47) rank ahead of Jones and Giles.
Worth noting
• Like Maholm, Cardinals right-hander Jake Westbrook has a 0.00 ERA this season, but has allowed an unearned run.
• Pirates shortstop Clint Barmes is a .441 career hitter (15-for-34) against Maholm with two home runs, three doubles and nine RBIs.
• Pittsburgh's Travis Snider is hitting .400 during his seven-game hitting streak.
• Jones has hit safely in his last 11 starts, batting .395 in that stretch.

Runs scored is still a function of who is hitting behind you. The stat calculates an estimate of how many runs trout creates as a result of his stellar baser inning, and its not limited to just steals.
Not sure where you're seeing his defensive WAR as negative. Fan graphs has him at 5.7 runs above average. And I will disagree on Cabrera not being a butcher. He's awful at 3rd. Fan graphs has him at 16 runs below average.Just using the eye test, I agree with you that Trout is the much better defender. So why is his defensive WAR negative? As for Miggy, he's below average over there, but he's not a butcher either IMO. Not to mention that it's not even his natural position. He moved to benefit the team and allow a place for Prince to play. And again, I think this part is factored too heavily in WAR. And this is coming from a defensive freak. :O)
I'll say what many often say on this board about WAR. Look at the components individually, and it paints a much better picture of how a player got to his particular WAR. The Trout Cabrera debate has been stated pretty simply by those that support Trout. Cabrera is a slightly better hitter. He is better, no doubt. It's close, but not THAT close. Trout is infinitely better on the bases. Infinitely better in the field. Also plays a more difficult position. Many of us believe that the entire package shows that Trout is more valuable.Thanks guys for the feedback. I was hoping that your decisions weren't just WAR, WAR and more WAR. I think it's a useful stat, but not good enough to define one player as better than another. I need more.
Cabrera the better hitter, Trout the more valuable player.

Rating of bond value, stock value, depends on inflation, deflation, on the rate of growth of GDP and average rate of growth of that product line in industry in comparison with specific product line. An increase in general price index will decrease the bond yield and a decrease in price will increase the bond price.so also an increase in price may be followed by an increase in national GDP in which case yet there may be increase of bond prices despite factors pulling down the value..
the stock markets will behalf differently.an increase in prices will increase the stocks and a decrease in prices will decrease the stock prices as the earnings per share may fall due to fall in revenue. Whereas an increase in GDP will increase the stock prices and decrease in GDP growth rate will generally result in fall of stock prices unless the particular product line is above the average national growth rate as well as its rival in that business line.
we can deduce that the prices of bonds and stocks are inversely correlated and both of them are positively correlated to GDP growth rate. The movements of the index's of the above factors may be taken as a approximate guide to understand the direction of the economy to which it is moving? does it also approximate to judge whether any under valuation or over valuation of either bond or stock markets and market manipulations by wall streets against main streets?

GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools rating is a simple tool for parents to compare schools based on test scores. It compares schools across the state, where the highest rated schools in the state are designated as "Above Average" and the lowest "Below Average." It is designed to be a starting point to help parents make baseline comparisons. We always advise parents to visit the school and consider other information on school performance and programs, as well as consider their child's and family's needs as part of the school selection process.

As property values decline, homeowners have options
Traci BueDelaine FragnoliManaging Editor4/7/2010With property taxes due this week, homeowners are probably thinking about property values and the associated taxes. Property reassessment is one way to bring relief to strapped homeowners in today's troubling economic times. Many homeowners have the option of applying for a Proposition 8: "Decline in Value" review. Proposition 8 is a temporary reduction in assessed value when real property suffers a decline in market value.
Before property owners beat a path to the county assessor's office, a small caveat must be met for a Proposition 8 review to be beneficial: The current market value of the property must fall below the factored base-year value (the market value as established in 1975, or when the property was subject to new construction or change of ownership).
Before 1978, home values were assessed at current market values each year, making homeowners subject to the whims of the economy and reaping huge revenues for county coffers in times of dramatic real estate growth. During the hyperinflation of the '70s, many homeowners were taxed out of their homes. To keep skyrocketing property taxes in check and limit local government's ability to raise revenues from this tax, voters passed Proposition 13 in 1978.
Proposition 13 ties property taxes to the purchase price instead of the current market value and limits assessed value increases to a maximum of 2 percent for inflation, adjusted annually.
For the first time in the 32 years since Proposition 13 passed in 1978, the California Consumer Price Index ran in the negative in 2009. All Proposition 13 base year values will actually be lowered by .00237 percent on the 2010 - 11 tax roll, regardless of whether the property qualifies for Proposition 8 treatment.
Taxpayers will receive notices about the adjustments made under Proposition 8 assessment in mid-July to early August.
Proposition 13 also set a countywide property tax rate cap at 1 percent of assessed property value unless voters approved other special assessments.
The assessment method favors longtime homeowners. Owners of identical properties can pay vastly different taxes, based solely on when they purchased their properties.
Proposition 13 reassessments generally aren't made unless homeowners add on to property or a change in ownership occurs. Then, a reappraisal is conducted that establishes a new Proposition 13 standard for the property.
If a property has increased in market value since it was purchased or built, it will continue to be assessed at the Proposition 13 value until its current market value falls below the Proposition 13 base-year factored value. When it does, homeowners can apply for a Proposition 8 assessment.
Proposition 8 reductions in value are temporary. Once a Proposition 8 value has been enrolled, a property's value must be reviewed each following Jan. 1, to determine whether its current market value is less than its Proposition 13 factored value.
Proposition 8 requires the assessor to compare each property's factored base-year value with the current market value, and enroll the lesser of the two each year.
Proposition 8 values can change from year to year as the market fluctuates, and are not restricted by the Proposition 13 maximum adjustment of 2 percent. However, a Proposition 8 property may not be assessed at a value greater than its Proposition 13 factored base-year value.
Once the market value of a Proposition 8 property exceeds its Proposition 13 factored base-year value, the Proposition 13 value is reinstated.
For example: Say a $300,000 property had been reduced under Proposition 8 to the current market value of $250,000; then reviewed the following year when the market value increased by 5 percent, the value for that year would be $262,500.
Because the current market value is less than its current factored base-year value of $306,000 ($300,000 + 2 percent annual increase), increasing the assessed value by 5 percent is legal. The 2 percent Proposition 13 limitation applies only to the factored base-year value.
Plumas County Tax Assessor Chuck Leonardt said his office proactively reduced approximately 5,000 assessments in the 2009 - 10 tax year due to current market conditions, an increase over the 3,600 reductions made the prior year.
He adds his office is currently reviewing market data to determine what adjustments are appropriate for the 2010-11 tax year.
Preliminary market indicators demonstrate additional adjustments will be necessary in many areas throughout the county.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
The Rookery Hotel
Peters Lane, Cowcross Street, London, England, UK
Neighborhood: Clerkenwell
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Hard to believe, but there was a time in London's recent past when there was practically nowhere worth staying this far east — unfortunate indeed when one considers that there is in fact a world outside the West End. It's a situation that's since been remedied, and these days City financial types and the Clerkenwell/Hoxton art and design crowd alike have more than a few worthy options for putting up visitors in style.
One of the likeliest candidates is the Rookery, a sort of sequel to the literary-themed Hazlitt's, in Soho. This one is an homage to the days when all manner of villains congregated here in the lawless zone (itself called the Rookery) just outside the old city limits. Today this part of Clerkenwell is more a dining-and-drinking sort of place, not terribly unlike Soho, really, though it's still the place to catch sight of the occasional bit of villainy: Pete Doherty was famously arrested here, in an unintentional echo of the Rookery's romantic, sordid history.
It's a history that the Rookery (the hotel) trades on quite explicitly. Each one of its bedrooms is unique, and named for characters from the Rookery's lawless days, not just professionals but criminals and prostitutes as well. Inside they're beautifully old-fashioned, a Victorian fantasy, some wood-paneled, all antique-furnished, with bathrooms featuring restored Victorian-era plumbing and fittings — a difficult sell to some guests, possibly, but not at all lacking for personality.
The only modern intrusions are the absolute necessities, which, in London hotels, include LCD televisions and wireless internet access. There's no restaurant, and only limited room service, which is hardly an imposition given that some of the city's top restaurants are within walking distance. And so are some of Clerkenwell's best clubs and pubs, in case you're in the mood for a Doherty-esque night on the town — if you play your cards right there could someday be a room at the Rookery bearing your name.

ThatOneGuy,As you may know, some jurisdictions do not allow pizza operators to use screens anymore for health reasons (according to pizzatools, Dallas is one of them), so many users have gone to discs (or possibly perforated cutter pans). I assume that a 14-inch screen should work, however, without the need to pre-bake the crust before saucing and dressing. I obviously don't need the dough ring, since I can use the 14-inch screen to lay out a 14-inch dough circle.

What are simple kidney cysts?
Simple kidney cysts are abnormal, fluid-filled sacs that form in the kidneys. Simple kidney cysts are different from the cysts that develop when a person has polycystic kidney disease (PKD), which is a genetic disorder. Simple kidney cysts do not enlarge the kidneys, replace their normal structure, or cause reduced kidney function like cysts do in people with PKD.
Simple kidney cysts are more common as people age. An estimated 25 percent of people 40 years of age and 50 percent of people 50 years of age have simple kidney cysts.1
1Torres VE, Grantham JJ. Cystic diseases of the kidney. In: Brenner BM, ed. Brenner & Rector's The Kidney. Vol. 2. 8th ed. Philadelphia: Saunders Elsevier; 2008: 1451–1453.
What are the kidneys and what do they do?
The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Every day, the two kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to filter out about 1 to 2 quarts of urine, composed of waste products and extra water. The urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder through tubes called ureters. The bladder stores urine until releasing it through urination.
What causes simple kidney cysts?
The cause of simple kidney cysts is not fully understood. Obstruction of tubules—tiny structures within the kidneys that collect urine—or deficiency of blood supply to the kidneys may play a role. Diverticula—sacs that form on the tubules—may detach and become simple kidney cysts. The role of genetic factors in the development of simple kidney cysts has not been studied.
What are the symptoms of simple kidney cysts?
Simple kidney cysts usually do not cause symptoms or harm the kidneys. In some cases, however, pain can occur between the ribs and hips when cysts enlarge and press on other organs. Sometimes cysts become infected, causing fever, pain, and tenderness. Simple kidney cysts are not thought to affect kidney function, but one study found an association between the presence of cysts and reduced kidney function in hospitalized people younger than 60 years of age.1 Some studies have found a relationship between simple kidney cysts and high blood pressure. For example, high blood pressure has improved in some people after a large cyst was drained. However, this relationship is not well understood.2
2Zerem E, Imamovic G, Omerovic S. Simple renal cysts and arterial hypertension: does their evacuation decrease the blood pressure. Journal of Hypertension. 2009;27(10):2074–2078.
How are simple kidney cysts diagnosed?
Most simple kidney cysts are found during imaging tests done for other reasons. When a cyst is found, the following imaging tests can be used to determine whether it is a simple kidney cyst or another, more serious condition. These imaging tests are performed at an outpatient center or hospital by a specially trained technician, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist—a doctor who specializes in medical imaging. Ultrasound may also be performed in a health care provider's office. Anesthesia is not needed though light sedation may be used for people with a fear of confined spaces who undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- Ultrasound. Ultrasound uses a device, called a transducer, that bounces safe, painless sound waves off organs to create an image of their structure. An abdominal ultrasound can create images of the entire urinary tract. The images can be used to distinguish harmless cysts from other problems.
- Computerized tomography (CT) scan. CT scans use a combination of x rays and computer technology to create three-dimensional (3-D) images. A CT scan may include the injection of a special dye, called contrast medium. CT scans require the person to lie on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped device where the x rays are taken. CT scans can show cysts and tumors in the kidneys.
- MRI. MRI machines use radio waves and magnets to produce detailed pictures of the body's internal organs and soft tissues without using x rays. An MRI may include the injection of contrast medium. With most MRI machines, the person lies on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped device that may be open ended or closed at one end; some newer machines are designed to allow the person to lie in a more open space. Like CT scans, MRIs can show cysts and tumors.
How are simple kidney cysts treated?
Treatment is not needed for simple kidney cysts that do not cause any symptoms. Simple kidney cysts may be monitored with periodic ultrasounds.
Simple kidney cysts that are causing symptoms or blocking the flow of blood or urine through the kidney may need to be treated using a procedure called sclerotherapy. In sclerotherapy, the doctor punctures the cyst using a long needle inserted through the skin. Ultrasound is used to guide the needle to the cyst. The cyst is drained and then filled with a solution containing alcohol to make the kidney tissue harder. The procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis with a local anesthetic.
If the cyst is large, surgery may be needed. Most surgeries can be performed using a laparoscope—a special tool with a small, lighted video camera. The procedure is usually done under general anesthesia in a hospital. The surgeon drains the cyst and then removes or burns away its outer tissue. This type of surgery allows for a smaller incision and quicker recovery.
Eating, Diet, and Nutrition
Eating, diet, and nutrition have not been shown to play a role in causing or preventing simple kidney cysts.
Points to Remember
- Simple kidney cysts are abnormal, fluid-filled sacs that form in the kidneys.
- Simple kidney cysts usually do not cause symptoms or harm the kidneys.
- Most simple kidney cysts are found during imaging tests done for other reasons.
- Treatment is not needed for simple kidney cysts that do not cause any symptoms.
- Simple kidney cysts that are causing symptoms or blocking the flow of blood or urine through the kidney may need to be treated using sclerotherapy or surgery.
Hope through Research
In recent years, researchers have learned a great deal about kidney disease. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) sponsors several programs aimed at understanding kidney problems. The NIDDK's Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases supports basic research into normal kidney function and the diseases that impair normal function at the cellular and molecular levels, including diabetes, high blood pressure, glomerulonephritis, and cystic kidney diseases.
Participants in clinical trials can play a more active role in their own health care, gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available, and help others by contributing to medical research. For information about current studies, visit www.ClinicalTrials.gov.

ANSR Customer Reviews
I should have bought this sooner. - 6/2/2013 10:43:58 PM Ive hemmed and hawed over getting something like this for over a year now. Now that I got it and my feet are completely smooth, I am wondering why it took so long for me to just get it in the first place! I used the ANSR twice so far. Yes, TWICE. One 10-minute session every other day. Every last little dry, prickly bit of stubborn dry skin completely gone!! If you have problem heels for whatever reason, and youve been considering buying this, just do it. It will make a difference, and will leave you wondering why you didnt purchase it sooner. If you were to go in for regular pedicures to have the same effect on your feet, the ANSR will have made up its cost within the first month. Plus in the convenience of your own home! And with no strange ladies gossiping about you in front of your face in a foreign language! That fact alone has kept me away from those pedi salon type environments. I coupled use of the ANSR with the AHAVA foot intensive cream, and that product too is Absolutely Amazing. I know the ANSR did the heavy duty clearing, but the AHAVA kept the surface smooth and moisturized in-between, even though I did not reapply on the days I didnt use the ANSR. Check that product out too if you are looking for a lotion to go with this. In a nutshell, I am SO happy I purchased this and highly recommend this to anyone that suffers from dry, cracked heel.I finally have smooth feet - 1/31/2013 2:45:33 PM I LOVE this product. Thank you for carrying this. It is worth every penny. I have spent a lot of time and money trying to get my feet smooth. I used this twice and when I go to bed at night I can't stop rubbing my feet together they are the smoothest they have ever been. It is so convenient that it is rechargable and you don't need batteries. I'm so happy I found this!The Smoothest Feet Ever - 7/27/2012 7:39:47 AM I had been using a Pedegg every day, so my feet were in pretty good shape. Then I bought the ANSR Sole, and all I can say is "Wow!" This beats the Pedegg hands down. The ANSR Sole is quick, painless, and leaves my feet callous free. My husband even has been using it with great results, and his feet were pretty rough. Buy it when SkinStore is offering a discount, and you'll get a good price on a great product.Worth every penny - 7/25/2012 12:32:00 PM This callus remover is amazing- worth every penny- so much more effective than getting a pedicure for hard skin- my feet look and feel so soft- I am thrilled and with young children I am short on time so I can use it very quickly to keep my feet looking great!softest feet ever - 7/5/2012 10:03:04 AM This item is expensive, but I have never had softer feet. I go every two weeks for pedicures and never have feet this soft after them. Very easy to use and am very happy with this item and this purchase.Love this tool! - 7/1/2012 1:25:03 PM These beats the heck out of the heel razor I used to use! My heels stay smoother longer too!Worth the splurge - 6/26/2012 7:07:28 AM I just got this and love it already after the first use! The skin on my feet is rough, and I have tried many different files, scrubs and tools to try to eliminate this rough, ugly skin, and nothing really worked. Also, I didn't want to get but so aggressive with the files for fear of going too deep and damaging the skin. I read the directions twice, and gave my feet a 10-minute soak in a footbath before using the Ansr Sole. This tool is very easy to use. You just charge it completely before the first use, and use a very light touch until you feel how it works on your skin. The Ansr Sole is very quick and effective at removing calluses, and my skin felt like silk afterwards. I can now wear my sandals with pride knowing that my feet are smooth and beautiful. -

For many men and women, problems that affect the body skin are difficult to address with topical products alone. ANSR is a skin care company committed to developing answers to dermatological problems that persist despite the use of traditional interventions like lotions and creams. By creating innovative skin care tools that are simple to use, ANSR provides effective solutions that can help you to overcome the obstacles that stand in your way of having smooth, healthy skin from your head to your toes.
The feet are especially susceptible to developing skin care problems due to the strain and stress put on them on a daily basis. Footwear that does not fit properly, pressure from standing and walking, perspiration and harsh climactic conditions can all take a toll on the feet, leaving them feeling rough and marked by calluses and thick patches. When not addressed, these problems progressively worsen over time, and it can be very difficult to soften and smooth the feet with traditional moisturizing products alone.
The scientific team at ANSR has unveiled technology that can help to address common skin care problems of the feet safely and effectively. Their state-of-the-art hand-held device uses friction to gently lift away dead skin from the surface of the feet, capturing the debris to prevent messes. With regular use, ANSR foot care products can promote more attractive feet and toes. Perfect for prepping the feet for sandal season and for completing your home pedicures, ANSR products lead to true skin care transformations.
