Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Kidney Biopsy
A kidney biopsy is usually done using a long thin needle put through the back (flank) into the kidney. This is called a percutaneous kidney biopsy. A tissue sample is taken and sent to a lab. It is looked at under a microscope. The sample can help your doctor see how healthy your kidney is and look for any problems.
The two kidneys are found on either side of the spine, in the lower back. They help the body balance water, salts, and minerals in the blood. The kidneys also filter waste products from the blood and make urine.
A kidney biopsy may be done to check for kidney problems. It may also be done after other tests for kidney disease, such as blood and urine tests, ultrasound, or a computed tomography (CT) scan, show a kidney problem.
Why It Is Done
A kidney biopsy is done to:
- Find kidney disease when there is blood or protein in the urine or when the kidneys are not working well.
- Check kidney problems seen on an ultrasound or a CT scan.
- Watch kidney disease and see if treatment is working.
- Find out why a transplanted kidney isn't working well.
- Find out more information about a tumor found in the kidney.
How To Prepare
Tell your doctor if you:
- Are taking any medicines. If you are taking aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen or naproxen), or blood thinners (such as Coumadin, heparin, or Plavix), your doctor may tell you to stop taking these medicines for several days before the biopsy.
- Are allergic to any medicines, such as those used to numb the skin (anesthetics).
- Have had bleeding problems.
- Are or might be pregnant.
Follow the instructions exactly about when to stop eating and drinking, or your test may be canceled. If your doctor has instructed you to take your medicines on the day of the test, please do so using only a sip of water.
Arrange to have someone take you home after the biopsy because you may be given a medicine (sedative) to help you relax.

Remember those battery-operated vibrating ladybugs that people used to pass around (multiple times) as office gifts? Yeah, that critter ain't got nothing on this stable of patently awful gizmos. We've seen a remarkable amount of garbage pass under our noses in the past few weeks, and we've rounded up the worst of the worst for your consideration. So, is a USB shell speaker really more embarrassing than a V-Sports console for folks tired of searching for a Wii? Is the i-Knock personal IM notifier more unnecessary than the Encore Rockin' Music Lamp? Or does the OMG-inducing Limbo String walk away with the gold here? We know, each and every item is a festering turd in one way or another, but which of the ones below just exemplify the word "crap?" Choose carefully.

Have a Summer Barbecue - Picnic - Cookout survival plan ready to go when those weekend events hit your schedule. Just because we are outdoors, those chips and dips do not have less calories. Try not to go to a picnic hungry. And if you know the menu ahead of time, plan your picnic in your daily planner. One hot dog and roll with toppings can easily be a full meal's worth of calories. All this being said, enjoy the SUMMER!!
It's hard for me eating right during the weekend, joining SP Weekend Survival it's helping me to stay on track even on weekends!
Keep your cookouts healthy with lots of green and fruit salads and using meat as a condiment not as a main!!
When I know I'm going out to eat or (since it's nearly summer) to a cookout and I may splurge, I step up the intensity of my workout or go that extra 20-30 minutes BEFORE I go. I use those extra calories burned for my splurges (drinks or a yummy dessert or whatever!)

Written by Jeff Thredgold, President, Thredgold Economic Associates
August 16, 2011
The disastrous performance of this nation's political elite in Washington DC over the past six weeks did significant damage to the American economy. The fact that the U.S. economy has almost ground to a halt despite massive and unprecedented fiscal and monetary steroids…the fact that the Federal Reserve felt compelled to serve notice that its key interest rate would stay at essentially zero for the next two years…the fact that the stock market had four days in a row of more than 400 point swings…can all be traced in one form or another back to the enormous political vacuum that is Washington DC.
It would have been one thing if all the sweat and tears suffered by the American people about the three D's…default, downgrade, and the deficit had resulted in a realistic and comprehensive plan to finally address this nation's unsustainable trillion dollar plus annual budget deficits for as far as the eye can see. It did not.
The plan was weak, underwhelming, and lackluster…serving to merely push the tough decisions down the road. It would be great if the 12-member "super-committee" established to identify at least $1.5 trillion in reduced government deficits over the next 10 years would actually make serious progress by November 23. Don't hold your breath.
The pressures on these six Democrats and six Republicans to toe the party line will be enormous. Still, it only takes one to support the other party's objectives to get an agreement. Getting the full Congress to then embrace recommendations of the Committee by December 23 would be another party line vote. If they fail to reach an agreement, $1.5 trillion in lesser spending will automatically be applied equally to the military budget and various domestic programs…
…what a sad way to run a country
Blame Game
Meanwhile, the President blames the Republican House of Representatives for its unwillingness to embrace any tax increases (whoops!...make that revenue enhancements). The Republicans blame the Administration and the Democratic Senate for their unwillingness to embrace necessary reductions in future government spending growth rates on entitlement programs.
The far right and the far left media fan the flames of embitterment and dissention. The general populace of this once and still great nation—the average person on the street—wonders how we got so far off track…and can it ever be fixed.
Both Sides
As a somewhat conservative economist, most of my criticism is leveled at those who espouse bigger and bigger and bigger government…yes, typically the liberal Democrats. However, one statement during October 2010 by Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell noted, "the single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term President."
What happened to focusing on other things like, Oh, I don't know…economic growth, job creation, getting a handle on government spending, helping to restore the public's confidence? It is this type of destructive dialogue coming from both sides that damages the economy. Such dialogue and childish political behavior of recent weeks led the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment to a 31-year low as reported last Friday…a 31-year low!
It again makes one wish we had term limits in the nation's capital—letting politicians focus on what is best for America…not just what is best for themselves and their party…
…what a concept

WASHINGTON, D.C. (05-27-15) – Americans United for Life filed an amicus curiae (friend of the court) legal brief this week in Planned Parenthood v. Schimel, urging the Seventh Circuit to overturn a decision invalidating Wisconsin's admitting privileges requirement for abortion providers. "Requiring hospital admitting privileges for abortionists is a life-saving law," noted AUL President and CEO Dr. Charmaine Yoest. "The purpose of this health and safety standard is to have a plan in place should a woman experience a life-threatening crisis during an abortion. You would think making a plan for keeping women safe would be something everyone could agree on. Sadly, […]

2015 State Mid-Sessions Report
Each year, AUL publishes Defending Life: A State-by-State Legal Guide to Abortion, Bioethics, and the End of Life.
This annual resource manual combines our model legislation, expert analysis, and 50 state report cards into a single nonpartisan guide for legislators, policy makers, the media, and interested Americans. It comprehensively addresses abortion, protection of the unborn (in contexts outside of abortion), bioethics, the end-of-life, and health care freedom of conscience, expertly tackles legal and policy challenges for the pro-life movement, and reports on recent legislative and courtroom victories, continuing progress toward protecting life in each of the 50 states, and emerging issues and trends.
The Women's Protection Project is a unique package of legal tools available for legislators seeking to protect women and girls from the profit-driven abortion industry that consistently ignores the deadly consequences of abortion.
New this year is an enforcement module that provides the legal means to hold abortion providers who harm women and girls accountable.

beautiful. I'm ve-rr-y amused, a v-tranny o' this here life, and those old skooo Donnays, still never cease to a-maze. Just proves to show that big-D's are better than today's hollowed-Babolat hurricanes whiz, fails. Donnays are like glittle queen gold fish and trannies, tragedies, hanging by the barbie-wire, shish-kebobed, without tailes...they're so beuatiful, the way they shimmer, like that, like they was at a disco with cowjoy bob, and kylie, so very beautiful...I wish all my rackets could be sobeautiful, but they're not, not a one, not a single citrus, aqua-marine, inpsired, SWATCH, just swatch in my collection. Donnay why'd you go and paint your frames all boring and black now, hah? When they used to be so beautiful. Back in the day, that's what it's all about for me. Back in the day, eating monster nachos with jalapenos from Jack N' the Box, those were the bistros I remember, and what I wold not do now, to grafitti art my high-class frames. Old schkooo Donnays is the kind of rakcets porcupines and pine sol would use if he had hands...ohh, that racket and them hands would smell sooo good together, I just knew it. Donnay-stands for most beuatiful rackets himmer sticks on a kebob, in ever light, every one of them, an inspired, masterpiece, of throwup art, subliminally I'm suggesting ou throw them up right now, and leave 'em outside bfre ou tell anyone else, that wa I oucld steal them without know one else knowing, or you even remembering, oh, how I would love m Donnays...but then, I wouldn't be able to brag about them publicly, which would kinda maek e'm ...suck! Oh, man, can't win right can u, without actually buing them...but if I stole them form some kid, who would he tell, who would isten? They'd just hear his tears...gawww, wahhhh, he'd, you'd, you'd, that TRANNY! stole my Donnays! "Who, me? Gotta go. HE-he...oh, boy," what'd I get myself into now
utifully fulfilling. Do you fill in colors, hwen you play with old school Donnay? Why can't we be a stree tgrafitti generations like it was in the rockin' 80s? Everone had funny hair, and it was ok. Even some businessmen thought it was ok to sill carr the party over in the back. Have you ever heard a glam-queen of the board room hankerchief a donnay to his forehead, by the hanle or the brave, and declare today is two heads are better than one day, @ ross...then, watch the stampede as everyone runs over to Ross, right out the window...not a second to spare, and now enough with this charade. Off to golf, hurrohh!! hooray, and the fancy secretary with with frilly lingeries goes w. me too, but she'll have to stow away w. my expensive golf clubs. Wish there was a way to make it more comfortable in there, but there was no wa. Pleasurable business, that is the forte' of Donnay. One day, I will snatch one up off Craigbay I will, I will...! It's on the list, somewhere burried, but one day, I will reach that life''s milestone and know I've trul maad e it, my very own cDonnnay!!!

Another Successful Year: CFI On Campus affiliate groups in 2014
The CFI On Campus team is excited for the rest of 2015. From working on the 2015 CFI Leadership Conference (July 30 - August 2 in Amherst, NY) to continuing to develop resources and plan for the future of CFI On Campus, we're looking forward to an eventful and productive year.
But, of course, CFI On Campus isn't really about us–it's about the freethinking students who build community and advocate for skepticism and secularism every day on their campuses. And based on the incredible work they did in 2014, we're just as enthusiastic about what the future holds for freethinking students in 2015. While it's fresh on our minds, we'd like to highlight just a few of the many accomplishments of CFI On Campus affiliate groups in 2014:
Affiliate Group of the Week: Secular Society at Elon
This week, we're highlighting the Secular Society at Elon as Affiliate Group of the Week. We met Broadway Jackson III, group leader and then-intern of the Secular Coalition for America, at our CFI Leadership Conference this past summer, and were impressed with his thoughtful contributions during workshops. He continues to contribute his thoughts from time-to-time on The Course of Reason, including the following run-down of his background, his group, and his view of the future of secularism.
Affiliate Group of the Week: Kettering Secular Skeptics
This week's Affiliate Group of the Week is the Kettering Secular Skeptics (KSS). We asked group leader Austin Edwards some questions about himself and his group; read on to learn about his New Age upbringing, how he got KSS started, and what his group has in store for the future:

Gynecomastia refers to the benign enlargement, unilateral or bilateral, of the male breast due to an increase of:
Gynecomastia is the most common breast lesion in males, accounting for more than 65% of breast disorders in men.
Gynecomastia may be associated with any of the following:
Some adolescents and adults have fatty tissue on their chests that gives the appearance of gynecomastia. This condition is called pseudogynecomastia or false gynecomastia. In some patients, symptoms of true mastitis can occur. The possibility of cancer must be considered with breast enlargement in the adult male, accounting for approximately 1% of all breast cancers in the United States. True pubertal gynecomastia is common, 38% in males 10 to 16 years of age, increasing or peaking to 65% at age 14 years, then decreasing at age 16 years. Generally, pubertal gynecomastia regresses within six months, 75% within two years, and 90% within three years.
The indications for treatment are dependent on the prolonged presence of breast enlargement in the male patient. The hypertrophy of the breast tissue usually causes the patient to have a somewhat feminine appearance. The enlarged breasts will often give distention and tightness to the breast, which can cause pain and discomfort. Treatment for underlying hormonal disorders may require cessation of drug therapy or weight loss. Adolescent gynecomastia may resolve with aging.
The Gynecomastia Scale, adapted from the McKinney and Simon, Hoffman and Kohn scales used in the 1970's to assess levels of male breast enlargement, is recommended by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons to grade breast growth and is as follows:
Grade I: Unilateral breast nodular enlargement, minor but visible breast enlargement without skin redundancy.
Grade II: Moderate breast enlargement exceeding areola boundaries with edges that are indistinct from the chest, with or without skin redundancy.
Grade III: Moderate breast enlargement exceeding areola boundaries with edges that are distinct from the chest with skin redundancy present.
Grade IV: Marked breast enlargement with skin redundancy and feminization of the breast.
Mastectomy for gynecomastia is a surgical procedure to remove breast glandular tissue from a male with enlarged breasts, similar to subcutaneous mastectomy procedure performed on a female patient. Liposuction-assisted mastectomy has become a popular method used for pseudogynecomastia. An ultrasound modality may or may not accompany the liposuction technique.
Each benefit plan or contract defines which services are covered, which are excluded, and which are subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their providers have the responsibility for consulting the member's benefit plan or contract to determine if there is any exclusion or other benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. If there is a discrepancy between a Medical Policy and a member's benefit plan or contract, the benefit plan or contract will govern.
Mastectomy for gynecomastia by any method (including subcutaneous and/or suction lipectomy, liposuction, or lipoplasty assisted gynecomastia mastectomy) is considered cosmetic because gynecomastia does not result in functional impairment. This determination applies regardless of the underlying condition including, but not limited to, an underlying hormonal disorder, obesity, adolescence and other age related breast tissue enlargement symptoms, and/or the reversible side effects of drug treatment.
Mastectomy and reduction mammaplasty, including mastopexy, in male patients are considered to be done primarily to alter physical appearance. They are therefore considered cosmetic procedures.
Special Comment regarding Cosmetic Services: Determination of benefit coverage for procedures considered to be cosmetic is based on how a member's benefit contract defines cosmetic services and their eligibility for benefit coverage.
NOTE: This policy does not address the use of mastectomy for a male patient to remove breast tissue following a biopsy confirming a malignancy.
Gynecomastia is a benign enlargement of the male breast commonly occurring in healthy adolescent boys and in adults (50 to 80 years old). It may be a source of cosmetic and psychologic problems. The pain associated with adolescent gynecomastia is typically self-limiting or responds to analgesic therapy. The secondary forms usually require no therapy other than the removal of any identified inciting cause. Most of the idiopathic forms last only a few months and gradually disappear. In the secondary gynecomastia and idiopathic forms that present for longer than 12 months and when hormonal treatment fails, a mastectomy may be the next form of therapy.
If the breast enlargement is due to a tumor, then the tumor must be treated. Breast cancer is rare in males. If there is any question of cancer, a mammogram and biopsy will be performed prior to a mastectomy.
Concepts of medical necessity are based on the presence of a functional impairment. Typically no functional impairment is associated with gynecomastia; therefore treatment of gynecomastia is considered cosmetic and directly related to cosmetic and reconstructive service contract benefits or exclusions.
Disclaimer for coding information on Medical Policies
Procedure and diagnosis codes on Medical Policy documents are included only as a general reference tool for each policy. They may not be all-inclusive.
The presence or absence of procedure, service, supply, device or diagnosis codes in a Medical Policy document has no relevance for determination of benefit coverage for members or reimbursement for providers. Only the written coverage position in a medical policy should be used for such determinations.
Benefit coverage determinations based on written Medical Policy coverage positions must include review of the member's benefit contract or Summary Plan Description (SPD) for defined coverage vs. non-coverage, benefit exclusions, and benefit limitations such as dollar or duration caps.
Refer to the ICD-9-CM manual.

Rockwell Powers & DJ Phinisey - Gone
Artist: Rockwell Powers
Featuring: DJ Phinisey
Producer: DJ Phinisey
Album: BUILD
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 8 votes )
Last we heard from Rockwell Powers and DJ Phinisey, on a reader-approved single off the latter's self-titled LP, they were "sittin' on Top of the World," reveling in the success they'd achieved in the game. Fast-forward four months and change, and they've left terra firma behind altogether. On Gone, the lead single off the Pacific Northwesterners' next joint project, Powers reflects on how much his life's improved since he detached himself from others' expectations and started making full use of his free will: "One day you'll find out you don't have to prove sh*t / And the weight'll fall quick, and the pressure won't stick." As on the aforementioned cut, Phinisey wears two hats, providing a soaring electronic beat to back his colleague's bars as well as grabbing the mic to deliver a sung hook and backing vocals. The project to which this record is attached has yet to receive a title or drop date but, as always, fans can keep it locked for the latest.

The Braves waited. And waited. And waited.
Finally, behind a dominating pitching performance from Tim Hudson, the Brave lineup broke through.
The Braves scored twice in the top of the fifth and seventh innings before breaking through for six in the top of the seventh to snag the series win over Washington in an 11-2 victory.
Hudson threw seven strong, using his wide array of nasty pitches to retire the final 17 batters he faced before his day ended after Eric Hinske's pinch hit for him in the seventh inning.
The veteran finished the day allowing three hits to an improved Nationals lineup, giving up one run and walking one while fanning five.
To add to his impressive first start of the season, Hudson came up with one out in the top of the fifth, walked, and came around to score on Martin Prado's double to right.
It was the way Hudson scored, sliding head first into home, scoring the 3rd and decisive run, that caused laughter and anxiety to simultaneously hit Braves fans everywhere.
Sunday was the day the Braves offense finally broke out, after scoring just five runs in the first two games of the season.
The first seven hitters in the order recorded at least one hit, with Prado and Brian McCann notching three and Jason Heyward recording two of his own.
Even though Freddie Freeman did not record a hit, he drove in two runs of his own.
Now, after an impressive series finale in Washington, the Braves head to Milwaukee to take on the Brewers for the first four-game set of the season.
In the opener, Brandon Beachy will make his first start of the new season, as the Brewers will send Chris Narvenson to the mound, looking to get Milwaukee it's first win.
The Brewers scored 11 runs in the first three games against Cincinnati, but were unable to quiet the Reds bats.
Even though the Brewers have lost three straight to open the season, they still possess an impressive middle of the lineup in Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder.
In game two, Fredi Gonzalez will send Derek Lowe to the mound. In his Opening Day start last Thursday, Lowe threw 5 2/3 innings of shutout ball, earning the win.
Game three will feature Mike Minor, filling in for the disabled Jair Jurrjens. The Brewers have not decided who will oppose Minor.
In game four, Tommy Hanson will look to bounce back after a rough first start Saturday afternoon.
Hanson gave up four runs on five hits in just 3 2/3 innings. His start was stopped short after a hail storm in Washington, D.C., ended his afternoon.
The big key for the Braves will be to make the starting pitcher work by getting his pitch count high to crack the Brewers lackluster bullpen.
The Braves will try to do just that over the next four days in Milwaukee.
--Notes: Chipper Jones is 5 hits away from 2,500; Tim Hudson is now 132-2 when given a three-run lead; Jair Jurrjens is scheduled to throw a simulated game at Gwinnett before a decision is made on when he will be ready.

And I don't really see the knee-jerk defending of Android in Android forums like I see here regarding iOS. I was reading a thread, I think over in Android Central, where someone brought up that the iPhone had the feature or whatever it was they were asking about. I was thinking "oh god here it comes." Instead it was more like "oh cool I will check it out" (and similar from several people). That would not have happened here. Seems a lot more close-minded. This thread is evidence of that.
And what I too used to sarcastically call fragmentation I now see as choice. Choice in models I did not have with Apple. Already I am wanting a Note 2.

Instead of whinging about missing features I look for alternatives. Whinging will get me nowhere. Apple will probably never add the features I want.
The other thing is that I think about whether I want that feature for the sake of having it or whether I'll actually use it. There aren't many things I want my phone to do that it can't already. I would like a phone that supports mobile payments once that's more popular here. I want Passbook to be supported in more apps and more places. I'd like text messages to be synced over iCloud too, even to iPads, and I'd like to be able to send text messages using the iPad (which uses the iPhone).
My life isn't going to end if they're not added, so I don't waste any time dwelling on them.
Plus they may force you to use iTunes to transfer from computer, but you can transfer any music file, it doesn't have to be bought from iTunes.
Your conspiracy theory falls flat whichever way you look at it, I'm afraid.
I think it's more likely that they didn't want customers calling them all the time saying "I used XYZ app to transfer my files and it's all gone to crap, what do I do now..." etc. At least with iTunes they can assist.
It's like some people feel the need to force their views onto others.

The first iPhone sold like hotcakes and that was missing multitasking, copy and paste, amongst other features that are now integral parts of every smartphone.
Some people are happy with what they've got, believe it or not. We don't all desperately need new features.
My iPhone can make calls, send and receive messages, view my calendar, send and receive email, take pictures, access the internet, remind me about things, I can use it over bluetooth in my car, I can watch videos and manage my photos on it, can download and listen to music.
WHY would I desperately need it to do anything else? I am happy with what it can do; the main features I want adding are for convenience's sake rather than any gaping hole in the feature set.
The thing that I like the most is that it appears to be ALMOST bug free, at least for what I use it for. I sometimes get blank stores, occasional app crashes, but for the vast majority of the time everything I do on it "just works."

Nope. I CHOSE to buy my iPhone. I get the concept just fine, thank you.
I'm just not going to ask for features I don't really care about. I don't need to be able to access the file system or attach files to emails. I don't need widgets. Etc...
Widgets were cool on Android and I used them a lot when they were there, but I don't miss them. I never think "Damn, I wish I had widgets."
What part of "I'm happy with it as is" is hard to understand?

My choice is something that's simple, does things easily, and isn't overcrowded with features that I might use once in a blue moon. That's as much of a valid choice as yours.
I don't think it's him that the true meaning of choice is lost on.
|Jan 17, 2013, 01:49 PM
Fair enough. What do you gain from stopping others to try to make change happen?
If this is the game to play then when does it stop? Then we don't ever have to call for a company to improve anything as long as another company is doing it.
Again, it is folly to think this way.
All right, I take me leave for real now.
Good luck, all.
|Jan 17, 2013, 01:56 PM
If people post their ideas on a public message board then they open themselves up to criticism.
I like iOS as it is and don't want it to drastically change, so if somebody starts talking about features that will drastically change it, I will voice my opinions about it.
I don't mind if Apple wants to add a visible file system, widgets, etc, so long as the current methods of doing things work still.
It's like somebody coming along and asking Google to change some feature you really like, you're not going to agree with it just for the sake of change.

This thread is so damn dramatic.....
These are phones guys....the way some of you post, you'd think we were planning the American Revolution.
I hate to break it to you - this isn't that important. Apple (and the other OEMs) have their strategy as far as updates, software etc. go. To say we need to "voice our displeasure" and "be the voice of change" is absolutely ludicrous....
We aren't fighting for civil rights here - we're talking about, arguably superfluous, features of a still somewhat luxury device.
There are those who prefer the way Apple does things and the relatively controlled way they go about bringing changes. Why is this so bad? If you don't like it, move on to another system. Android brings changes all the damn time - sometimes whether the tech is ready/necessary or not. You have the choice between these platforms and the way they do things.
As for Apple changing - those of you who over-dramatize the lack of changes in iOS and the iPhone need to get a grip. The 5 is almost 3X faster than the 4S. Apple has added significant features to iOS over the years including iCloud, Siri, Maps and various developer tools. Are these things "firsts"? No. Who gives a damn if they're firsts. Frankly, I'd rather a technology mature before I put it in a device I use daily and count on to work.
I get it - you're bored with the look of iOS. Wah wah wah....change for the sake of change isn't something everyone wants. So as I said - you pick your platform and I'll pick mine.
And if Apple really does do something terrible to the iPhone or iOS (and I mean legitimate, not what most of you overreact to), the public will vote with their wallets and Apple will do something dramatic. As a content iPhone user, I'll continue using iOS until it no longer suits my needs. And if/when it doesn't? Guess what.....I can CHOOSE a different phone maker/OS. Because they exist.
Choice exists in the various OSes and OEMs in the market. All of them improve their products each year - including Apple. If you don't like the way one company is moving their line - switch. Simple as that. These guys don't understand this concept.

Who the heck designed such a worthless system with no clear options.
Now scroll through that pile with phone and not look ridiculous. On 3Gs unit anyway.
At least years ago with Microsoft - any option was game - if it still is.
I won't even mention the worthless calendar & notepad app.

Hey tech is a big hobby of mine as well.....but to insinuate that the only way we can get Apple to change its oppressive nature is by banding together and voicing our discontent is a little over-the-top....especially when there are hundreds of millions of people who actually like Apple's iteration of the smartphone.
Again, we're talking smartphones here and features that could add a few saved seconds of convenience - not whether or not to revolt over taxation without representation. There are also choices - its not like its Apple or nothing....
I applaud the enthusiasm - just feel its a little misplaced, and don't appreciate the assumptions that those of us who actually like what Apple currently offers are against choice/improvement or are too stupid to recognize what we're missing.....which is never said, but almost always insinuated.

Excuse the grammar and punctuation (typing from an iPhone).
I used to carry a Blackberry with an iPod touch and couldn't get an iphone on the Verizon network for the longest time. When the "Droids" came out I jumped on them right away and became a huge android fanboy. Oh man, the Droids were so anti apple, kool to customize, and came with awesome hardware. You apple fanboys were "left in the dust" with my google maps with free navigation! A quick run through of android phones I've owned:
HTC Droid Eris
Original Droid
Droid Incredible (three of them, maybe 4)
Droid 2
Droid X2
I finally got an Apple iphone 4 and for 2 weeks was frustrated that it didn't do the things I wanted it to do. There was no back button on the iphone, there was no turn by turn google maps, no app drawer, no widgets, etc. then suddenly, after the 2 weeks of banging my head, I started to like it. The apps were prettier and try worked, all my movies and music was in iTunes on the computer, the battery lasted forever, my email was all in one spot, accessories galore because manufacturers didnt have to make new accesories every other month for new handsets! I had an epiphany! This phone was just good!
Like an jerkhole, I saw the pure android experience come back to Verizon on google's most promising handset yet...Galaxy Nexus! Time for me to see if anyone wanted to trade for my iPhone and I thought "sucker!" I get awesome android back an I get to try ice cream sandwich (google's best iteration yet) and soon to be jelly bean.
One day with Android and it sucked. Sure the screen was bigger but the colors were so ugly. Ice cream sandwich was fast but it wasn't water like the iphone. 2 days later I traded someone on Craigslist for my iphone back. This time I got an iPhone 4S and all was well.
Jelly bean came out for the galaxy nexus not long in mid or maybe late last year with promises of a buttery smooth iphone like experience. Of course I had to try it out! Yes it's buttery, yes it was kool, yes it was futuristic! It just didn't feel like an iphone. It was ugly, the apps were ugly, the keyboard was ugly, I grew out of hacking and rooting my phones evaluate I didn't really need to with the iphone. The apps were horrible! The experience was jarring and somehow some way found someone to trade for an iphone once again.
I get bored with my iphone at times but now I know better. I'm not a young hacker who likes to overclock my CPU anymore. I don't need to customize my widgets in a specific manner to accommodate my information. I just need it to feel good to me. Android used to make me feel that way and I think it was because I didn't know any better. But now, even when I think the grass is greener on the other side, I know it's not.
If you want an android phone then by all means have at it. If you end up liking it, great! I'm not hating! I love iMessage, I love that it works, I love the apple ecosystem. I really don't care for a giant screen and I don't need to customize every inch of my phone. Not anymore.

I think people would be surprised by how often people upgrade to the next generation without thinking about it. A coworker of mine picked up the Note 2 after owning the iPhone 5 for only a few months... prior to playing with a friends' Note 2 which prompted them to switch, they said that they didn't even give much thought to any other device since they had owned iPhones previously.
Likewise, being tied to contract's / what the family chooses to use is another reason people often stick with one way or another
That brings up an interesting point though - a lot of it is timing. If you jumped after years with Android devices when most Android phones were stuck in the 2.x era and went to the iPhone 4/4S, you'd probably have a very different experience than someone who stayed with the iPhone through 4/5 then jumped to Jelly Bean loaded Android devices.
For example, my company was offering the iPhone 5 or S3 for employees. A few jumped on the iPhone 5 as they were in the Apple ecosystem already. I showed off my Note 2 to one of them today and asked them how they were liking the jump from their iPhone 4 to 5... they said "honestly there isn't any difference" and concluded with "but I'm tied to the Apple ecosystem and can't leave." They asked how the Note 2 was, and I showed them multi-window mode, the smooth JB interface, Google Now, the new Google voice search/typing, etc. and they said "wow, I had no idea Android was like that now"

I'd still rather have the nexus than an iphone 5 for it being such an older phone its still not bad.

Cant wait great mod
this mod will replace the fallout factions with that in warhammer 40k it aims to replace everything in Fallout 3 to Warhammer 40k
overview of what will be in the next version that are in production
Posted by DarkWolfV on Jul 16th, 2010
I will soon be realising a new addon for this mod, this addon will include the following:
I have chosen to add these chapters in next as they were requested by the community, if you would like another chapter that is not on the list, then request it to me and i will see about creating that chapter/legion.
screenshots will be incoming so keep an eye out
i will be re-uploading the first few mesh and textures, as to fix the installatin issues some people are having
thanks DarkWolf V
Cant wait great mod
Little problem from a story point. Emporer's Children were one of the 10 Legions that turned Traitor during the Horus Heresy. They would be Chaos marines, not Loyalists.
just a chapter change added in if you want it, its optional, there is also the chaos space marine emperor's children
hey darkwolf could you message me a guilde on how to install the mod one at a time
They Leave Blood Angels for one of the Last ones Cause its the best and they want to put more effort in it! right? lol

Article Summary
Whether you like to sing along to your favorite tunes while in the shower, or just listen to them, speakers and water don't usually mix. You could try using a waterproof iPod shuffle, but where would you clip it? Instead, you might want to go with Kohler's new Moxie shower head, that features a built-in wireless waterproof speaker.

Flyers defenseman Andrej Meszaros has undergone surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon and is out indefinitely. Meszaros was injured last week during summer training in Slovakia, and had surgery in Philadelphia on Tuesday, Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said in a statement. Meszaros missed 20 games last season and the first 10 of Philadelphia's 11 postseason games. He had back surgery on March 21, to remove a disc fragment that was impinging on a nerve root, and returned for Game 5 of the second-round series against New Jersey.

mechanical loading
cell signaling
|Osteocytes are thought to be the primary cell in bone that responds to mechanical loading and the traditional view is that skeletal muscle's role relative to bone is in the application of those loads. We have hypothesized that muscle cells can exert influences on bone through the production of endocrine like factors that alter the behavior of bone cells. To test this hypothesis we have cultured MLO-Y4 osteocyte like cells in the presence of conditioned media (CM) from C2C12 differentiated muscle cell cultures, a myogenic cell line that closely represents adult mammalian skeletal muscle cells. We have observed that muscle cell CM causes increased dendrite lengthening and decreased cell body area similar to previously reported effects of fluid flow shear stress (FFSS) applied to the MLO-Y4 osteocytic cells. We next determined whether muscle cell CM could alter the regulation of early biochemical signaling pathways that are known to be activated by FFSS. The addition of 10% muscle cell CM during the application of FFSS for 2 hours resulted in a potentiation of Akt signaling activation by FFSS on MLO-Y4 osteocytic cells. Erk1/2 activation in response to FFSS is normally transient in MLO-Y4 cells reaching a peak at 15 minutes and declining by 2 hours; however, in the presence of 10% CM there was a sustained activation at 2 hours. These data are consistent with the production of a factor(s) by skeletal muscle cells that can modulate the function of the bone osteocytes and their response to loading. The identification of this factor could lead to the development of new paradigms or agents to treat diseases of low bone mass such as osteoporosis and muscle related diseases such as sarcopenia.

Before I conclude this Saturday night like so many before- cursing Andy Samberg amidst the rubble of Meisterbrau empties then falling asleep with my hand down my pants to the Shortcut to Internet Millions infomercial like a drunken Al Bundy I believe I owe you the defense edition of Wes Welker's Rex Ryan All-Stars. Enjoy!
DE: Lester Archambeau (Atl./'90-00)- From nearby Mount Olive, New Jersey which always reminds of the joke, "Last time I went to Mount Olive...Popeye kicked the crap outta me!" I'm a simple man, really.
DT: Dan Footman (Ind./'93-98)- Had 10.5 sacks in 10 starts in '97 then played only 3 more games in the NFL due to injuries (apparently he wouldn't take "the needle" like Delma in North Dallas Forty). His player comp at Pro Football Reference is listed as Ebenezer Ekuban, a name that always makes me wonder why people in the 1800s felt the need to wear floppy, tasseled hats to bed?
DT: Loren Toews (Pit./'73-83)- Daughter owns independent label Lujo Records home to such bands as The Dark Romantics (wasn't one Romantics enough), Baby Teeth, The Out Circuit and Mouse Fire, who has been billed by the S.F. Chronicle as "a throwback to Air Supply"- a statement that has now officially replaced "at least you have your health" under the definition of "Damned By Faint Praise".
DE: Matt Toeaina (Chi./Current)- One of the seemingly inordinate number of Samoans involved in either Professional Football or Wrestling. No word on whether he's given a "Rikishi Stinkface" to any opponents yet.
LB: Larry Foote (Pit./Current)- Functional, steady, boring as all hell. Katie Holmes without the Scientology.
LB: Joe Pawelek (Sea./Current)- Academic All-American at Baylor who was lucky to just miss the Kevin Steele coaching era there. Steele is most remembered as the DL coach of the Panthers that Kevin Greene choked during a Nationally televised game, but he also committed a coaching blunder so egregious it makes Herman Edwards look like a Clock Management Maestro. In his first game at Baylor and needing simply to have his QB take a knee at the opponents 2 yard line to win the game Steele called timeout pulled his entire offense to the sideline and announced that under his tutelage Baylor didn't take a knee. Cue the Joe Pisarcik fumble and 98 yards later Steele was 0-1 on his way to 9-36 in 3 seasons. Nice job tough guy (http://espn.go.com/page2/s/list/worstdecisions.html).
LB: Na'il Diggs (St.L./Current)- Truthfully I got nothing here, but the apostrophe in the first name is a nice touch. I mean it's no tilde, German umlaut or slash through the "o" like in Soren Kierkegaard, but you take what you can get.
CB: Jacob Lacey (Ind./Current)- Apparently planned his interception return TD dance as a kid, got his chance second game in courtesy of Marc Bulger...and was promptly penalized for excessive celebration and benched by Jim Caldwell. Which reminds us that next year in the NCAA excessive celebrations after scores will result in a 15 yard penalty from the previous spot thereby nullifying the TD. I see a record breaking Steve Spurrier visor toss in there somewhere.
CB: Ashton Youboty (Buf./Current)- One of 4 current players born in Liberia. Who knew? Established in 1821 by the the Henry Clay founded American Colonazition Society on the premise that freed black slaves would have a greater chance at freedom and prosperity there. Today Liberians are fresh off nearly 30 years of Civil War and 85% of the population live on $1.25 or less a day. Or as the "Great Compromiser's" family recently announced in a press release, "Our bad."
SS: John Booty (Phi./'88-95)- Drafted out of TCU in the 10th round which harkens back to the days when the NFL draft was held in the backroom of some gin mill with no Combine, computers or even comprehensive knowledge of the players available leading teams to draft the likes of Andre the Giant (Washington Redskins) or Bruce Jenner (L.A. Rams) in some Old Grandad inspired moment of inspiration. Good times!
FS: Adam Archuleta (St.L./'01-07)- Poster child for what the ESPN talking heads have wrought on common sense. Archuleta was a workout warrior and big hitter drafted 20th overall in 2001. His occasional bone jarring tackles were repeated ad nauseum on shows like NFL Live while the fact he couldn't cover "Smoke on the Water" with a year of guitar lessons went completely unmentioned. The idea is to make Big Plays not Big Hits, but Big Hits sell so we are constantly subjected to the idea that Mark Kelso, "the other" Roy Williams and their like were stars. Archuleta cashed in on this misguided theory of talent in 2006 when Washington made him the highest paid Safety in the game. He lasted one season and brought back a 6th round pick from the Bears in a deal not unlike Felix and Oscar trading the cash for a lifetime supply of canned squid on the Monte Hall Odd Couple episode. He recently crapped out in a tryout with the Raiders, but on the bright side he married Playboy's Miss August 2001, Jennifer Walcott. According to the Playmate website (which I blame for this post being so late) Ms. Walcott dreamed of becoming a vet and poet as a child. She opted for implants out of High School, little Fido be damned, but she has released a book of her poetry though we assume by these photos that Charles Bukowski she's not...

Mock Draft: Predicting the Chargers' picks
Chargers need to select defensive lineman, cornerback and offensive tackle
16) Baltimore (8-8) — Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M, So.
Ozzie Newsome will always take the best available player, but it would be tough to pass on a talented wideout to complement Torrey Smith. Evans is 6-foot-5 and weighs 225 pounds, so he can win any jump ball situation and pull in bad throws, which will make Joe Flacco happy. Top needs: WR, OT, CB.
17) Dallas (8-8) — Kony Ealy, DE, Missouri, Jr.
The Cowboys defense is horrific, so any defensive player is an upgrade here. Ealy makes sense for both the 4-3 and 3-4. He is built well for an edge rusher and wins with his quick first step. He's just scratching the surface of his ability and should continue to improve with his pass rush moves. Top needs: DE, CB, S.
Note:Baltimore and Dallas will flip a coin at the NFL Combine to determine who gets picks 16 and 17. Baltimore is at No. 16 here because the two teams are in alphabetical order.
18) N.Y. Jets (8-8) — Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina, Jr.
Before people get too low on Geno Smith, they should ask themselves: Who is this team's go-to guy right now? Ebron is the definition. He is a mismatch for defenses because of his ability to stretch the field with his speed and then box out defenders and adjust to the ball in the air with his excellent body control. Top needs: WR, OG, CB.
19) Miami (8-8) — Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan, Sr.
The Dolphins offensive line was in a state of disarray last season. To truly move forward, it has to be addressed in the off-season. Lewan is a big, nasty blocker who can overpower defenders in the run game. There are some technical flaws with his footwork, but if he gets it figured out, he could be a 10-year starter at left tackle. Top needs: OT, OG, RB.
20) Arizona (10-6) — Zack Martin, OG/OT, Notre Dame, Sr.
Martin, who lined up at left tackle for the Irish, projects best at guard where his quick feet and explosive hands will serve him well, but the Cardinals will value his versatility regardless. Top needs: OL, CB, OLB.
21) Green Bay (8-7-1) — Ra'Shede Hageman, DT, Minnesota, Sr.
B.J. Raji is a free agent, and his price tag could be too high for Packers GM Ted Thompson. Hageman was a standout during Senior Bowl week. Top needs: TE, DB, LB, DL.
22) Philadelphia (10-6) — Calvin Pryor, S, Louisville, Jr.
Outside of receiver, I expect the Eagles to focus primarily on defense during the draft. Pryor is a physical presence who can also cover. Top needs: OLB, S, CB.
23) Kansas City (11-5) — Marqise Lee, WR, USC, Jr.
Andy Reid would love to add a field-stretcher in the passing game. Lee can run any route and has good hands. Alex Smith would do a backflip for this pick. Top needs: WR, DL, ILB.
24) Cincinnati (11-5) — Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma St., Sr.

Mickey Mantle's is down to its last out. The landlord is trying to evict the fan-favorite eatery once owned by the legendary Yankee slugger from its 25-year home on Central Park South for nonpayment of rent. "They want to get rid of us at the end of May," said current owner Chris Villano, who put the place into bankruptcy a few months ago. But a pinch-hitter has stepped up to try rescuing Mantle's -- Bill Liederman, a friend of Villano who was No. 7's original partner and sold his stake, coincidentally, seven years ago. "We need $1 million to get it back on its feet," said Liederman, who just returned to the restaurant and is ready to go down swinging. To raise the dough, he is trying to persuade former pinstripers including David Cone, Ron Guidry and Goose Gossage to chip in as little as $10,000 each. But Liederman says he cannot get to first base with current team members. "Their agents just laugh," he said. Villano said he kept up the cafe despite a recent business falloff...

"This design was great! Multiple pictures can be used and the font was beautiful! Perfect was to announce the arrival of our baby girl."
"We received many compliments on this birth announcement. It was simple, yet had all the vital information on the front. We added a family photo on the back of the card. As usual, the proofs were sent to us very quickly, and the final product reached out within days."
