Friday's health and safety news from the world of football:
* WKRK-FM reported that former Cleveland Browns wide receiver Braylon Edwards -- who is currently a free agent -- said he will make good on a promise he made in 2007 to pay for 100 area kids to go to college.
While with the Browns, Edwards promised 100 Cleveland high school students that he would pay for their college education if they maintained a grade point average of 2.5 or above, do 15 hours of community service yearly, and attend monthly workshops on a variety of topics. All 100 students did their part, and now, according to CBSSports.com, Edwards is paying for all of them to go to college. Each scholarship is estimated to be around $10,000 per person which brings the total amount to $1 million.
"As the 2nd most hated man in Cleve & a man of my word, today I will honor a promise made to 100 students in Cleveland years ago," Edwards tweeted. "The last of my Advance 100 students will graduate from my program and head off to college on scholarships that I will provide them with. Guys, enjoy and embrace your new beginnings and remember your promise to me, to reach aback & help someone else along the way."
* New Orleans Saints safety Kenny Vaccaro told The New Orleans Advocate that reward outweighs the risk in playing pro football. He has suffered two concussions since his NFL career began in 2013.
Why? Because of his passion for the sport and financial ability to provide for his family, including his 2-year-old son.
"I couldn't walk away," Vaccaro, 23, said after Thursday's offseason team activity. "The reward is greater than the risk, for me."
Vacarro was selected as the No. 32 pick of the first round of last season's draft.
"Being drafted in the first round, my son, my whole family is set for life," he said. I already have money put away, so he's set for life. ... If I (finished) college, maybe he wouldn't be. It would have taken 10, 20 years of working a regular job."
* The Greenville News chronicled the return of former South Carolina cornerback Chris Culliver, who is hoping to return to full strength with the San Francisco 49ers from a serious knee injury.
* Fox Sports reported on former NFL defensive back Leigh Bodden's commencement speech to his Hyattsville, Maryland, high school.
* In an editorial, The Boston Globe was critical of President Barack Obama's concussion summit last week.
* Diverse: Issues in Higher Education delved into the research partnership between the Department of Defense and the NCAA that was announced at the summit.
* The State in Columbia, South Carolina, reported on a hotly-debated random drug testing proposal in one of the area's school districts.

20th Annual German Graduate Studies Conference at the University of Virginia: Virtues and Vices
February 22-23, 2013
Keynote: "The Peraldus Project: Edition, Translation, and Transmission of the Summa de vitiis" (Richard Newhauser, Arizona State University)
"Was man besonders gerne tut / Ist selten ganz besonders gut."
("Whatever you may like to do / Is seldom very good for you.")
This humorous observation from Wilhelm Busch has its roots in the vexing and intricate moral categories of virtues and vices. Does virtuous mean anything other than abstaining from vice? What affects the way in which we make ethical and moral decisions? Which authority decides who is a sinner and who is a saint? Interpretations of virtues and vices fluctuate over time, and what is appropriate today is unbecoming tomorrow: be it the Crusades, witch hunts, and political martyrdom or Madame Bovary and "Sympathy for the Devil."
As a consequence of the changing social formations which establish the concepts of virtue and vice, we still struggle with daemonic and irrational forces within us. The advent of improved and varied means to study human behavior has yet to satiate our interest in the definition of and explanation for virtues and vices. Man is perpetually affected by this duality – whether through the internalization of cardinal, chivalric, or bourgeois virtues and the exorcising of past vices, or through the vehement rejection of anything with an obvious moral tinge. For the imposition of virtues and vices also threatens our belief in the sovereignty and rationality of the subject.
At this conference, we would like to explore the question of virtues and vices from a literary perspective as well as that of related disciplines, including art, history, philosophy, religious studies, and sociology. We invite graduate students working both within and outside of German Studies to submit papers in English or German on a specific topic related to the conference theme. Possible topics include but are not limited to:
-the use(s) of virtues and vices as a rhetorical strategy
-the imposition and transgression of rules
-the role of the subject in a world defined by virtues and vices
-the historical variations of crime and punishment
-the moral or ethical purpose of literature and humanistic studies
-the effects of different media on our perception of virtues and vices
-the Seven Deadly Sins and their cultural transformation up through the present day
-the status of chastity as a virtue – a primarily feminine / misogynous concept?
-the gendering of virtues and vices
-the intersection of the natural sciences with humanistic discourse
Submissions: The deadline for submissions is December 10, 2012. Please send an abstract of not
more than 250 words, along with the proposed title, author's name, affiliation, and email address to: email@example.com.

You've got tech questions, here are the answers. Kim Komando helps you make the most of your technology by answering your thorniest tech questions. So if you're wondering what to buy, how to plug it in, or how to fix it, Kim can help.
Can a tablet replace cable TV?
Question: I really want to stop paying money every month for cable, but I don't want to miss my shows. Would a tablet help me cut the cord?
Answer: It certainly could. Since tablets stream video from Netflix, HBO and other sites, you can find plenty to watch. Some tablets even support streaming from microHDMI or HDMI ports so you can plug them right in to your TV. I wouldn't recommend a tablet solely for cutting the cord unless you already have one, though. The starting price for a tablet is at least $200 compared to the $50 starting price of streaming media boxes like the Roku LT. A streaming box is easier to plug in to your TV and can stream everything that a tablet can, often more.
Speed up your boot time
Question: As my computer gets older, it takes forever to boot. Is this a permanent thing or can I speed things up a little bit?
Answer: Computers will lose speed over time, but you can noticeably trim your boot times with the right programs. Autoruns is a personal favorite of mine. It helps you disable programs that turn on automatically when you start your computer. You can clear some of these out yourself by going to Start>>All Programs>>Startup and remove program icons. This stops the programs from starting up without deleting them. If you want programs to turn on automatically but still want to speed things up, try a program like Startup Delayer or TopWinPrio. These help you manage your computer's resources to stop logjams at startup.
Smartphone camera vs. point-and-shoot
Question: I'm taking a trip soon and I want to snap some pictures. Do I need to buy a point-and-shoot camera or can I just use my smartphone?
Answer: It depends. Newer smartphones with 8-megapixel cameras or higher eliminate the need for a dedicated point-and-shoot. With a photo-editing app like Snapseed, you might even be able to take some great shots with a phone that has a 5MP camera. However, if you're looking to take photographs like a pro, I don't recommend a point-and-shoot or a smartphone. You'll want a DSLR or a hybrid point-and-shoot like the Panasonic Lumix, Pentax Q or Canon PowerShot S. These will blow smartphone and point-and-shoot photos out of the water.
Make your emails more private
Question: Whenever I send an email to multiple people, everyone can see every email address. Is there any way to prevent this?
Answer: You bet! It's called BCC, or blind carbon copy. In most email programs it's right next to the To: and CC: fields, or at least in that area. Some email programs, like Thunderbird, can change the To: field to BCC: with a click. "To" and "CC" will send emails with visible addresses, but every address you put in the "BCC" field stays hidden. For forwards and mass email to people who might not know each other, I would use BCC for all the addresses. If your email program requires something in the To: field, use your own email address.
Multiple Accounts on iOS gadgets
Question: My friend's Nexus 7 supports multiple user accounts. Is there a way I could do this on my iPad? I'd like to set up a locked account that my kids can use to play games and nothing else.
Answer: Sadly, there's no way to do this on Apple gadgets yet. You can download the Our Pad app, but that only works for browsing and social media, and it costs $3. If your tablet's running iOS 6, however, you can enable a feature called Guided Access for free. Go to Settings>>General>>Accessibility>>Guided Access to set it up. Create a password and choose to disable or enable screen sleep — that's it! Now, whenever your child wants to play, launch their game and tap the Home button three times to bring up the Guided Access menu. It locks the tablet to just the active app. To exit, tap Home three times and enter your passcode.

Hey Fluffy
Good job with your Danny Wallace interview.
That's great that he's going to meet Jim in a couple of weeks.
Hey -- maybe Jim will show a little backbone and do something totally free minded and independent-- like offer Danny the starring role!
This way, he can be the executive producer, maybe have a guest role in there somewhere, and let Danny tell his story. It is Danny's story, after all, and it should stay his story.
And then Jim can show the world that he's not a puppet on a string, and that he can be a creative force to be reckoned with.
Sigh. I know it's just a dream, but wouldn't that be great if Jim started to be at the forefront of change in Hollywood, and actually got the ball rolling?
More power to the independents, and get things away from the studios.
The change will do you good, Jim. Try it. What do you have to lose?

The term "yooper" is getting recognition in the dictionary.
ESCANABA, Mich. (AP) ? After a more than decade-long campaign, the term "yooper" is getting recognition in the dictionary.
Residents of Michigan's Upper Peninsula call themselves "yoopers." Officials announced Monday that the term will appear in the 2014 edition of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, which goes on sale next month, the Daily Press of Escanaba and MLive.com reported.
Gladstone resident Steve Parks began his campaign by writing to the dictionary's editors about "yooper" in 2002. Parks began the personal endeavor after a friend challenged his use of the word in a game of Scrabble.
"We even went to a dictionary, and he was right," Parks said. "It wasn't in the dictionary. And I couldn't believe that because even then the word was very commonly used and so I sort of started out on this quest."
Parks, the Delta County prosecutor, was in private practice when he started campaigning for the word. He was told by an editor in 2004 that he might want to try again in 10 years, but he wasn't deterred. He picked up his efforts again in 2007 and 2009.
Parks, who was born in the Lower Peninsula community of Owosso and became a "yooper" in 1985, sent in documentation of the use of the word and references to well-known Upper Peninsula residents ? as well as "yooper" magnets, key chains, mugs and a T-shirt.
"It was just a fun little escape to me and it gave me something to hope for," Parks said.
"Yooper," a noun, is expected to be defined as "a native or resident of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan ? used as a nickname."
"We have our own sort of identity," he said. "It has a broader meaning to me and to a lot of people. To me it's synonymous with resilience, solid work ethic, community spirit and taking care of your neighbor kind of thing ? all those good qualities that are something lost in bigger areas."


text: Hi, can you try with a 2.6.13 kernel to see if you have the same problem? You could also try with a 2.6.15-rcX kernel as well. It's important to note that before you attempt to use the HSF modem driver version 7.18.00.07full on the 2.6.15 kernel, you must patch the driver or else the driver will crash. You can patch the driver with the 'hsfconfig --patch' command in a root shell. You should use this command before using the 'hsfconfig' command to compile the kernel modules.

What's the cost of your convenience?
- 9 Posts
This morning I caught sight of some headlines on a television about a proposed move by the Mayor of New York City to ban Styrofoam take-away containers in the city because they are impossible to recycle.
I do not want to dwell too much on this particular story as it is still developing; and the point I want to make is more about the 'cost' of convenience in our lives. Now, this is a very complex topic and there is much to be said about consumerist culture; the global economy and the actual environmental cost of certain products etc.; but I would like to focus on the individual and the choices we make in our lives and to ask you how prepared you are to give up some convenience for a greater good.
Take-away coffee cups; plastic shopping bags; kitchen paper towel; disposable razors; cans of lentils (as opposed to dried lentils); sandwich bags; plastic cutlery. These are just the few convenience items I know I am guilty of using and abusing on a regular basis. If I sat here thinking about it for longer I could probably come up with a list that is much longer.
I think it is easy to fall into the trap of convenience and to ignore the pangs of guilt when the thought of the impact on the environment starts to wiggle its way into your head. I also know that solving environmental issues requires a lot more than each of using fewer Styrofoam cups – governments and large companies need to take decisive action – but I don't think that can be an excuse for inaction on the part of individuals either. After all, how can you stand and point fingers if you're not making some genuine effort in your own life.
This morning's news report has made me realize that I've been a little lazy these past few months and so bad habits have crept in and I need to nip them in the bud.
What are some of the convenience items that you have given up or are prepared to give up, and which can you not live without?

SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services does the yeoman's work for reports that extract data from SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services. Reporting Services is good at providing the framework for report development, parameter selection, report deployment, and controlling report access. However, sometimes Reporting Services behaves differently than expected or desired when dealing with Analysis Services data and you need to find imaginative solutions to work around Reporting Services' limitations. Unfortunately, sometimes the imaginative solutions result in data-model or security changes. Isolating reporting requirements to the presentation layer as much as possible is preferable to making changes to data models or security simply to facilitate reporting. This article addresses a common situation in which particular report requirements aren't intuitively available in Reporting Services. The three-part solution to this problem uses features available in Reporting Services and Analysis Services to create a solution that resides entirely in the report presentation layer.
The sample Reporting Services project, which uses the AdventureWorks sample database, is available for download at http:// www.sqlmag.com, InstantDoc ID 94827. The project has two .rdl files: AW_Sample_ Problem.rdl: shows the problem report, and AW_Sample.rdl: shows the solution. I'd like to thank Al Ludlow, a data warehouse developer at CIBER, for creating the bulk of this solution.
Situation and Problem
A key business report for our sample business is a sales report in which the selection of an Analysis Services dimension member from the Geography hierarchy is a report parameter. A row group exists on the sales report for each level in the Geography hierarchy. Business requirements dictate that members higher in the dimension hierarchy (ancestors) of the userselected member should not be displayed in the report. But Reporting Services doesn't understand this requirement because there isn't a facility within Reporting Services to suppress higher-level members within a hierarchy, so the report we get displays unwanted ancestors. For example, when a user selects Utah as the parameter for the report, the report displays the Country level along with Utah and its descendants. The business requirement is violated when the ancestor of Utah, United States, appears on the report, as Figure 1 shows. The desired display doesn't show ancestors of Utah, as you can see in Figure 2.
The solution we create needs to hide the undesired ancestors without affecting the data model. We can accomplish our goal by using a mix of features in Reporting Services and Analysis Services to hide the undesired ancestors when the report is rendered. The technique for hiding the ancestors of the user-selected member uses three distinct parts, all referenced from within the report definition. The three parts are:
- Creating and referencing a data set that uses MDX to provide the level-number property of the selected report parameter.
- Creating a Visual Basic (VB) code block that compares the member level for display to the member level of the userselected parameter.
- Applying the Visibility property for row groups to exercise the VB code block.
Create dataset for parameter-level number. We can use "raw" MDX to define a new dataset in Reporting Services. We can enter the MDX by using generic query editor mode, which not only gives us display values (CAPTION and UNIQUENAME) but also gives us the LEVEL.ORDINAL property, which our VB code block references later. The generic query editor is available in a new data set by clicking the Design Mode button at the top of the Data tab in the RDL definition. The Design Mode button toggles the data set mode. We enter the MDX (MDX is typed directly into the data query pane of the Data tab in the RDL definition), which provides the LEVEL .ORDINAL of the user-selected parameter. The dataset, named DS Properties, is created by the MDX code that Listing 1 shows and referenced in the complete Reporting Services project.
Insert VB code block comparing display member level to the member level of the user-selected parameter member level. The VB code block that we're going to insert into the report definition is a function that compares the user-selected parameter hierarchy level to the current row level in the report. The report row level corresponds to the level in the hierarchy that limits our solution to regular hierarchies. The algorithm, which you can see in Listing 2, compares the user parameter-hierarchy level (intLevel) to the row level (intRowLevel) and returns "false" when the parameter level is less than the row level; otherwise, it returns "true." To enter custom code into a report definition, select Report, Report Properties from the menu in the Reporting Services development environment (the Business Intelligence Development Studio—BIDS). Click the Code tab and enter the VB code as Figure 3 shows.
Use VB code block in the Visibility property of row groups. Listing 2's VB code block is applied from the Visibility.Hidden property of the Row group. To access the expression and work with the expression editor, you highlight the row group in the Layout tab of the RDL definition, right-click, and select Properties. Click the drop-down box next to the Hidden property and select <expression…> to display the expression dialog box that Figure 4, shows.
The expression that we're editing:
=Code.ShowRow(Fields!Country. Value, First (Fields!ParameterLevel. Value, "DSProperties"), 1)
references the elements needed to return true or false based on the level of the hierarchy referenced in the report and the level of the user-selected parameter. In the preceding line of code, the function call to ShowRow() references the function defined in our VB code block. The first parameter contains the level number of the userselected parameter, First(Fields!ParameterL evel.Value, "DSProperties"). DSProperties is the name of the dataset we defined, which retrieves the level value of the selected parameter.
The second parameter (1) references the level of the hierarchy that shows up on the row of the report. The following line of code shows the call to ShowRow() for the second row group of the report.
=Code.ShowRow(Fields!Country. Value, First (Fields!ParameterLevel. Value, "DSProperties"), 2)
The value 2 in the second parameter corresponds to the level of the hierarchy that's on the report row group.
The solution in this article is a good example of how to isolate reporting requirements to the presentation layer rather than implementing model or security changes. Your challenge is to try implementing this solution within your own reporting environment and perhaps adapting the solution to a more complex requirement than simply suppressing ancestor display.

Mr P.
It's not just about the advice on investments. Netto Invest has a holistic approach to planning and keeps up-to-date copies of all my important personal documentation as well.
Prof F.
I had left it rather late, but I was still far enough from retirement to put more into it The modelling of the different scenarios was hugely helpful, and the Netto Invest planners' skill as they led me through the process made a huge difference. They were neither patronising nor aloof. Everything was carefully explained, and with the utmost respect.
Prof S.
The high level of client service that I continue to receive from you has exceeded all my expectations. You have restored my faith in the financial services industry. Netto is a special company and it has been an absolute pleasure to deal with you.
High Level of Client Service
I feel that at Netto Invest my 'inner man' has been heard and treated with the greatest of respect alongside all the investment decisions. "Contact Netto" was one of the most valuable pieces of personal advice my colleague has ever given me.

Many thanks for looking after my financial affairs so well. The security that Netto offers gives me complete peace of mind, something that I value enormously.
Mrs du P.
Thank you for your patience with my pedantic outlook… And for your help and guidance over the last 5 years — I have recently reached a specific milestone with regards to my investments, which I would not have done without Netto Invest. Please pass on my appreciation to the entire Netto Invest team, may your company go from strength to strength over the years.
Mr F.
Thank you for the diligent way you look after our finances. We have been sleeping well since our last meeting!

Stocks are little changed in morning trading Friday as lawmakers seek to thrash out a budget agreement. The government also reported that consumer spending fell in October.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose six points to 13,028 as of 11:13 a.m. Eastern. The Standard and Poor's 500 was down 0.4 points to 1,415. The Nasdaq composite was down five points to 3,007.
Stocks are slightly higher for the week. The Dow is up 0.2 percent, the S&P 500 index 0.4 percent. The market has fluctuated between gains and losses in recent days as news and comments filtered out from the budget negotiations in Washington.
Investors have been closely following the talks between the White House and Congress over the "fiscal cliff," which refers to sharp government spending cuts and tax increases scheduled to start Jan. 1 unless an agreement is reached to cut the budget deficit. Economists say that those measures, if implemented, could push the U.S. economy back into a recession.
"Right now the market is just going to be held hostage as to what happens in the next five hours, versus what's going to happen in the next five years," said Dan Veru, chief investment officer at Palisade Capital Management, in Fort Lee, New Jersey.
Americans cut back on spending last month and saw no growth in their income, reflecting disruption from Superstorm Sandy that could hold back economic growth in the final months of the year.
The Commerce Department reported that consumer spending dropped 0.2 percent in October. That's down from an increase of 0.8 percent in September and the weakest showing since May.
Among stocks making big moves:
-Yum Brands, which owns KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell, fell $6.90 to $67.58. The fast-food operator reported disappointing sales and earnings forecasts. An analyst recommended that investors sell the stock.
-Zynga, the maker of computer games including "Farmville" and "Cityville," fell 17 cents to $2.45 after the company said late Thursday that it was loosening its relationship with Facebook.
-VerSign plunged $5.50 to $33.83 after the company announced the terms of its new contract to run the key directories that keep track of ".com" domain names. The company won't be allowed to raise prices on the registration of such names without government approval.
-Duke Energy rose $1.10 to $63.49 after the company said its CEO will step down as part of a settlement with the North Carolina utilities regulator that ends an investigation into the company's takeover of in-state rival Progress Energy.

Superconducting thin film
|(Nanowerk News) One major goal on the path toward making useful superconducting devices has been engineering materials that act as superconductors at the nanoscale the realm of billionths of a meter. Such nanoscale superconductors would be useful in devices such as superconductive transistors and eventually in ultrafast, power-saving electronics.
|In the October 9, 2008, issue of Nature, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energys (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory report that they have successfully produced two-layer thin films where neither layer is superconducting on its own, but which exhibit a nanometer-thick region of superconductivity at their interface. Furthermore, they demonstrate the ability to elevate the temperature of superconductivity at this interface to temperatures exceeding 50 kelvin (-370°F), a relatively high temperature deemed more practical for real-world devices.
|This work provides definitive proof of our ability to produce robust superconductivity at the interface of two layers confined within an extremely thin, 1-2-nanometer-thick layer near the physical boundary between the two materials, said physicist Ivan Bozovic, who leads the Brookhaven thin film research team. It opens vistas for further progress, including using these techniques to significantly enhance superconducting properties in other known or new superconductors.
|Ivan Bozovic
|Bozovic foresees future research investigating different combinations of non-superconducting materials. Further study of the temperature-enhancement mechanism might even tell us something about the big puzzle the mechanism underlying high-temperature superconductivity, which remains one of the most important open problems in condensed matter physics, he said.
|Bozovics team had reported in 2002 the bizarre observation that the critical temperature the temperature below which the sample superconducts could be enhanced by as much as 25 percent in bilayers of two dissimilar copper-based materials. However, at that time, the scientists had no understanding of what caused this enhancement and in which part of the sample the superconductivity was located.
|To investigate this further, they synthesized more than 200 single-phase, bilayer and trilayer films with insulating, metallic, and superconducting blocks in all possible combinations and of varying layer thickness. The films were grown in a unique atomic-layer-by-layer molecular beam epitaxy system designed and built by Bozovic and coworkers to enable the synthesis of atomically smooth films as well as multilayers with perfect interfaces. The greatest technical challenge was to prove convincingly that the superconducting effect does not come from simple mixing of the two materials and formation of a third, chemically and physically distinct layer between the two constituent layers, Bozovic said. Collaborators at Cornell University ruled out this possibility using atomic-resolution transmission electron microscopy to identify the samples constituent chemical elements, proving that the layers indeed remained distinct.
|It is too early to tell what applications this research might yield, Bozovic said, but already at this stage we can speculate that this brings us one big step closer to fabrication of useful three-terminal superconducting devices, such as a superconductive field-effect transistor. In such a device, one would be able to switch the transistor from the superconducting to the resistive state by means of an external electric field, controlled by applying a voltage and using the third (gate) electrode. Circuits built from such devices would be much faster and use less power than the current ones based on semiconductors.
|No matter what the applications, this work is a nice demonstration of our ability to engineer and control materials at sub-nanometer scale, with designed and enhanced functionality, Bozovic said.
|In addition to Bozovic, the research team includes Adrian Gozar, Gennady Logvenov, and Anthony Bollinger of Brookhaven Lab, Lenna Fitting Kourkoutis and David A. Muller of Cornell University, and Lucille A. Giannuzzi of the FEI Company, Hillsboro, Oregon. The research at Brookhaven Lab was funded by the Office of Basic Energy Sciences within the DOEs Office of Science; the Cornell work was funded by the Office of Naval Research.

Dd is teething. she wakes many times at night....3 to 6 times. so one night I gave her advil and she woke 3 times only.. stretch was from6:30 to 1:30 which is awesome and then she woke two more times 330 and 530 and then a 7 to stay up.
Next night I gave advil and pumped bottle for dh to give and she slept 7pm to 4am and woke again 630 for the day.
Advil is helping her but I can't do it everdaywhat should I do... I can't keep waking so many times and dh cant help plus she is in pain. I also have DS, 3 years, also waking me once a night.
I gave bottle b.c I feel supply Is so low at night b.c she does feed during the day every 2 hours still regardless of the solids I give twice a day.

Renal papillary necrosis is a disorder of the kidneys in which all or part of the renal papillae die. The renal papillae are the areas where the openings of the collecting ducts enter the kidney, and where the urine flows into the ureters.
Alternative Names
Necrosis - renal papillae; Renal medullary necrosis
Renal papillary necrosis usually occurs with
Diabetic nephropathy
- Kidney infection (pyelonephritis)
- Kidney transplant rejection
Sickle cell anemia
- Urinary tract blockage
Sickle cell anemia is a common cause of renal papillary necrosis in children.
Tissue death (
- Back pain or
flank pain Bloody urine Cloudy urine Dark, rust-colored, or brown urine
- Tissue pieces in the urine
Other symptoms that may ocur with this disease:
- Chills
- Fever
Painful urination
- Urinary frequency or urgency
Urinary hesitancy Urinary incontinence
- Urinating large amounts
- Urinating often at night
Exams and Tests
The area over the affected kidney (in the flank) may feel tender during an exam. There may be a history of urinary tract infections. There may be signs of
Outlook (Prognosis)
How well a person does depends on what is causing the condition. If the cause can be controlled, the condition may go away on its own. In some cases, persons with this condition develop kidney failure and will need dialysis or a kidney transplant.
There is no specific treatment for renal papillary necrosis. Treatment depends on the cause. For example, if analgesic nephropathy is the cause, your doctor will recommend that you stop using the medicine that is causing it. This may allow the kidney to heal over time.
Possible Complications
Acute kidney failure
- Acute bilateral obstructive uropathy
Acute unilateral obstructive uropathy
- Chronic bilateral obstructive uropathy
Chronic kidney disease Chronic or recurrent urinary tract infection(UTI)
- Chronic unilateral obstructive uropathy
Hyperkalemia Hypovolemia Metabolic acidosis
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if:
- You have
bloody urine

Teams combine for 6 goals in first period, 6 in second, Spirit edge Whalers 8-7NHL.com @NHLdotcom
SAGINAW, Mich. - Eric Locke scored two third-period goals, including the winner, as the Saginaw Spirit held on to beat the Plymouth Whalers 8-7 in Ontario Hockey League action on Wednesday.
The teams put on a wild offensive display, combining for 12 goals and a 6-6 tie after 40 minutes.
Jimmy Lodge and Vincent Trocheck each had two goals in the opening period for Saginaw (9-10-3).
Justin Kea, Andrey Alexeev also scored for the Spirit, while Dalton Young helped out with three assists.
Stefan Noesen and Matt Mistele scored twice for Plymouth (10-7-3). Tom Wilson, Rickard Rakell and Ryan Hartman also scored for the Whalers.
Jake Paterson stopped 30 shots for Saginaw.
Matt Mahalak started in goal for Plymouth and was pulled at 12:23 of the first period after allowing three goals on nine shots. Riley Corbin finished the game allowing five goals on 21 shots.
Lodge opened the scoring after picking up a loose puck in front and beating Mahalak glove side at 1:03.
Plymouth tied at 7:38, as Rakell scored on his back hand after a save by Paterson.
Less then two minutes later the Spirit were back in front after Trocheck scored his first of two goals after receiving a pass from Lodge. Saginaw went up 3-1 on Lodge's second goal with a wristshot from the slot at 12:23. That prompted a Plymouth goalie change as Corbin replace Mahalak.
Trocheck put the Spirit up by three with a power-play goal, tipping a point shot from Young at 16:31. The Whalers narrowed the margin 64 seconds later on a goal from Hartman as the teams combined for six goals in the opening period.

nice work
...A bad day water skiing still beats a good day at work...1995 Pro Star 205....
Always turns out to be more than what you think doesn't it? Keep plugging along.
How did you fiberglass over top of the exsisting wood panels that were weak and springy? I currently have all the panel in front of the dog house and behind the dog house out. Never fiberglassed anything before, but pretty handy with just about anything.
Just looking for a quick breakdown of the steps, the amount of time it took (not the full carpet).
Just finished my adjustable height rear seat, the 750 LB fat sac fits perfectly under it, just need to fix this WOOD before installing it all into the boat.
Great work!! Way to keep another TriStar alive!!
1989 Tristar 190 - Indmar 351, 250HP, 1:1, 580 hours
The only floor board that was springy was the one furthest forward in between the pass thru. I did not glass over the top I removed the panel and removed the bottom of it because I could tell the wood was rotten see the pictures in post # 2 and 3. The wood was all rotted so I removed it all and put new wood inside and fiber glassed over that several layers until it felt solid. I kept turning it top side down to the ground and walked on it until it felt solid.
I guess if I could give you some advice is that the sides are sort of beveled to match the tray it fit in, try to get it to fit in the best you can, and so there are no gaps when you put the board in the tray, mix up a good batch of resin and pour it in to secure the wood and fill any gaps there maybe under neath where the wood meets the top of the tray, it will ooze out the edges but from what I could tell this was a good thing just clean as you go it will give the best fit and then put something on top of the board while the resin drys. I let that dry for a day or two before I started to lay fiberglass on top and seal the edges as best you can. Sand between each layer of fiberglass. For the fiber glass I just followed the directions on the bottle.
I took several days letting the layers dry was not in a hurry and had other stuff to do while it was drying.
I never used fiber glass before this and I didn't find that it was too difficult, if anything a little messy and took some time to get it all done but again I wasn't in a big hurry.
Get lots of gloves as it tends to get messy. Other than the resin and fiber glass I used some old disposable bowls for mixing and get several cheap disposable chip paint brushes, home depot or lowes has them for like .49 cents gonna use several of them unless you clean them between each layer.
To remove the wood I removed the panel cut out all the old wood with chisels and razor blades with a scraper and then sanded it smooth when it was almost all out.
For the last layer to cover the fiber glass top layer as you can see in post # 5 I used some of the Flex Seal as seen on TV just because I had a can laying around so that it was black and sealed the edges but I doubt it was necessary.
The other two panels if they are springy I did not take them apart because mine were in good shape, I think the other panel where the ski pole goes through seems to be the same process, but the one rear of the engine does not seem to have any wood in it as far as I could tell.
Good luck with your project let me know if I missed anything.
got some work done lately.. Got the stereo all wired up and testes to make sure it was working..Got the passenger side almost all buttoned up..
Good the word that my seats should be ready next week.. Decals are on order..Got new exhaust vent hose..So tomorrow will be the driver side and screw in all the floor panels and the two panels under the dash..Install new Drink/Beer holders and fire extinguisher and the other side of the windshield..Thinking of getting some of the new dash panels that I have seen on here and other sites..
looking good...

Got a little bit of work done yesterday pulled it out into the driveway weather was nice.. got some cleaning done, sealed up the back rub rail thought there may have been some water seeping in so I sealed all the up with 3M 4200, went to reinstall the bilge pump thru hull fitting and tightened it too tight and it cracked from the inside..Have to wait a few days to get the new one.. Delayed the rest of the panel installs until I get the seats back (hopefully this week they will be delivered), the rear arm rests need to be put back on before the combing sections, my arms are not that long. Should have it ready before too long..Was really hoping I could get it backed into the water to make sure there was no leaks with everything I have done before securing the flooring sections. Thought since I got the quick drains put on and I could drain it and put it back in the garage until I get it out for real and put it back on the lift, but the water level is down and the boat ramp two doors down did not have enough water to float it.
A little before and after..
Got the pieces back from the shop today started to install most of it, then when I got tired I set them in place to see what they looked like.
I know they dont look as good as if I had everything replaced but as the title states I was on a budget and think it can out really good considering I spent $850
Still have to replace the carpet around the dog house..still got some screws to turn..Hopefully the last of the snow is gone and will be in the water soon.

Server Virtualization
Intel® processors extend virtualization benefits throughout the network
Intel® server processors are extending the benefits of software virtualization far beyond consolidation to increase data center flexibility, security, productivity, and TCO. With unique built-in capabilities, Intel technologies such as the Intel® Xeon® processor E5 family are built to overcome key challenges such as network latency, infrastructure security, and power inefficiencies, putting you in a position to get the most out of your virtualization initiative. What's more, Intel Xeon processor-based servers provide a superior hardware platform for virtualization that delivers industry-leading performance and energy efficiency across a wide range of server configurations.
Four of Intel's newest server processors—the Intel® Xeon® processor E3 family, the Intel Xeon processor E5 family, the Intel® Xeon® processor E7 family, and the Intel® Itanium® processors—feature Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) built right in. The benefits of this approach include:
- Acceleration of fundamental virtualization processes throughout the platform
- Reduced storage and network latencies, with fewer potential bottlenecks
- The enhanced security that a solid hardware foundation provides
- Improved short- and long-term value from your software and server investments
Because Intel server processors with Intel VT do more with less, energy efficiency increases while server sprawl decreases. And by combining servers from multiple generations into the same virtualized pool, IT managers can extend failover, load balancing, and disaster recovery capability.
Intel VT also works with Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT), which provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance to malicious software attacks that occur before the virtual machine boots.1
See Intel's virtualization capabilities
Greater performance versus higher core count
When it comes to server virtualization performance, not all processing cores are created equal. Choosing servers with greater performance per core can be more important than choosing the server with the highest core count.
Greater performance per core
Transform your data center with Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT)
Intel server processors help you build a more agile, efficient, and secure data center by providing:
- More performance and increased consolidation ratios
- Business continuity and increased user uptime through virtual machine failover, load balancing, and disaster recovery capabilities enabled by seamless live migration
- A foundation for trust and compliance with security technology built in, allowing you to verify the trustworthiness of a virtualized pool of platforms
With advances in productivity, utilization, energy savings, manageability, and service levels, Intel server processors make a compelling investment for your IT organization and your business as a whole.
Interoperability and investment protection for your virtualized environment
Virtualization's most promising benefit is its ability to optimize resource utilization by migrating live applications across existing networks with no application downtime. Intel® Virtualization Technology FlexMigration (Intel® VT FlexMigration) takes the migration concept a step further by allowing the live migration of virtual machines across multiple generations of Intel® Xeon® processor-based servers. With this capability, you get the benefits of:
- Interoperability: Shared resources among diverse operating systems, versions, and applications increase overall efficiency and utilization
- Investment protection: Combines existing processor generations into the same virtualized server pool, extending failover, improving load balancing, and providing the most value from existing IT infrastructure

Learn from your peers at Intel
Some of the world's most successful companies, including Intel's own IT department, have used virtualization to transform their data centers in key, rapidly developing areas such as cloud computing.
Read more about IT@Intel's virtualization efforts >
1. No computer system can provide absolute security under all conditions. Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT) requires a computer system with Intel® Virtualization Technology, an Intel TXT-enabled processor, chipset, BIOS, Authenticated Code Modules and an Intel TXT-compatible measured launched environment (MLE). Intel TXT also requires the system to contain a TPM v1.s. For more information, visit www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/data-security/security-overview-general-technology.html. In addition, Intel TXT requires that the original equipment manufacturer provides TPM functionality, which requires a TPM-supported BIOS. TPM functionality must be initialized and may not be available in all countries.

Jose Mourinho's recent FA charge for improper conduct will be an nuisance to him but he won't be too worried about it because it is difficult for managers to get annoyed when their team is purring.
That is precisely what Chelsea are doing at the moment and their last two victories will only have served to increase the Portuguese's famed self-confidence in the title race.
Cardiff City were given a sliver of hope when David Luiz misjudged the pace of a pass and let in Jordan Mutch to open the scoring, but the Blues could not be held back and however unfair the equaliser was, the way they took the game away from the newly promoted side can leave no argument as to whether they deserved it or not.
Samuel Eto'o opened his account for the Stamford Bridge club against the Welsh club and looked much sharper, while everything looked a bit more fluid.
That victory took them to second in the Premier League behind Arsenal, but it was the very impressive win over Schalke in the Champions League on Tuesday that really gave an indication of how much Mourinho has the team closing in on its best form.
Fernando Torres took the plaudits for scoring twice and looking a little like his old self, but it was the solidity at the back that really impressed Mourinho in the comprehensive 3-0 victory in the Veltins Arena.
Chelsea went over to Germany and despatched a talented Bundesliga side in an ominously professional manner - ominous for their Premier League rivals that is.
A Mourinho side that is looking extremely solid at the back away from home is one to be feared; that sort of performance harks back to his first spell at Stamford Bridge and the all conquering physicality they possessed.
This is a very different Chelsea side but the mentality looks like it has returned, an iron will when in a tough contest and the belief that they will eventually prevail against most any opponent.
Eto'o and Torres both finding the net and looking like hitting a rich vein on form is perfect for the squad as it means competition for the centre-forward spot will be dictated by confidence, not the fear that had riddled them for so long this season.
When one cannot find a breakthrough Mourinho need only turn to the other, knowing he is in the groove, hungry to impress and ready to make a stake for a place at the top of the starting XI pecking order.
Arsenal have been leading the way up to now, but their defeat to Borussia Dortmund showed a naivety, acknowledged by Arsene Wenger, that could well scupper any tilt at silverware if not properly unheeded.
You just can't see Mourinho's side making the same mistake when in a similar situation and even less so when they are firing on all cylinders as they build momentum through the season.
Chelsea's squad, with the exception of Manchester City's, seems so much more polished than that of the current closest rivals to them in the league, who all appear to be just a touch too inconsistent.
Sunday's meeting with the Citizens at Stamford Bridge will be a crucial clash and a significant indicator as to who of the pair will be leading the charge to the Premier League title.
Betting against Chelsea at home is always a risky ploy and Mourinho looks like he is finally getting his team to operate as he wants them to.
The rest should be worried at such a prospect, very worried.

Implementing MAP-21: The State and Local Perspective
Opening Statements
Chairman Thomas E. Petri (R-WI)
Subcommittee on Highways and Transit
Hearing on "Implementing MAP-21: The State and Local Perspective"
April 25, 2013
Opening Statement
(Remarks as Prepared)
Today's hearing is the second in a series of oversight hearings on the U.S. Department of Transportation's (U.S. DOT) implementation of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act, better known as MAP-21. Signed into law by the President last July, MAP-21 authorizes the Federal highway, transit and highway safety programs through September 30, 2014.
These programs are administered by U.S. DOT in partnership with states, localities, and public transit agencies. While U.S. DOT provides financial and technical assistance, these partners are responsible for carrying out these programs on a day-to-day basis. Today, we will hear their perspective on U.S. DOT's implementation efforts.
Before we begin, let me briefly highlight some of the reforms that were included in MAP-21. We consolidated or eliminated more than 70 Federal programs. These changes allow for a greater focus on national transportation goals and priorities, while giving our partners greater flexibility to meet their transportation needs.
States, localities, and transit agencies are now required to establish performance targets and incorporate them into their transportation plans and project selection. These performance targets will help focus limited Federal resources on projects that have the greatest benefits. It will also help ensure that American taxpayers get the most bang for their buck.
Currently, it can take almost 14 years for a transportation project to be completed if federal funding is involved. This is simply unacceptable. MAP-21 made major reforms and improvements to the project delivery process. Some of the reforms include allowing Federal agencies to review projects concurrently, penalties for agencies that don't meet project review deadlines, and expanded categorical exclusions for projects in the existing right-of-way or with limited Federal investment. By cutting the bureaucratic red-tape, we will realize the economic and safety benefits of these projects much sooner.
MAP-21 increased funding for the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act program (TIFIA) from $122 million a year to approximately $1 billion a year. This increase in funding, combined with a change in law to allow a TIFIA loan to account for 49 percent of a project's costs, will allow U.S. DOT to issue about $35 billion in loans over the next two years. State governments, local governments, toll authorities, public transit agencies, and public-private partnerships are eligible to apply for these loans.
Previously, transit agencies had to work through FEMA to replace equipment or rebuild their systems after a disaster. After Hurricane Katrina, transit agencies sought an emergency program similar to the Emergency Relief program run by the Federal Highway Administration. MAP-21 created a new program that provides relief for public transportation systems that are affected by a natural disaster or catastrophic failure. This program is already being utilized by the states and transit agencies impacted by Hurricane Sandy.
Congress also recognized that new highway safety challenges have emerged. MAP-21 requires the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to implement a national priority safety program that incentivizes states to pass and enforce laws that address important safety issues.
The program focuses on impaired driving countermeasures, occupant protection, motorcycle safety, distracted driving, and graduated drivers licensing.
These reforms are only part of the sweeping policy and programmatic changes made in MAP-21. Today's hearing will allow representatives from state DOTs, state legislatures, transit operators, transportation planning agencies, and local governments to provide their views on how MAP-21 is being implemented.
