The main treatments for kidney disease are a proper diet and medications, dialysis, transplantation and conservative care. In the early stages of kidney disease, a proper diet and medications may help to maintain the critical balances in the body that your kidneys would normally control. However, when kidney function drops below about 10-15% of normal (an eGFR of about 10-15 ml/min), diet and medications are no longer enough. If you have no further treatment at this stage, short-term and long-term complications develop, and death eventually occurs. To keep you alive, you will need dialysis or a kidney transplant, combined with medications and a healthy diet.

Use Permit application
A Use Permit is a discretionary permit issued by the Planning Commission, typically for uses that may be compatible with surrounding land uses under certain conditions. After holding a public hearing to receive input and comment, the Planning Commission sets conditions or standards, makes the required Use Permit "findings," and issues Use Permits.
The timeframes for processing Use Permits depends on the level of environmental review required. Projects Categorically Exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act can be processed in one or two months, while those requiring a Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report will take longer. The average Use Permit can be processed in three months.

Yellen sworn in as new Fed chair
A pivotal event in the financial world took place Monday with little fanfare.
Janet Yellen quietly took the oath to lead the Federal Reserve, the first woman to hold the chair in the institution's 100-year history.
Yellen, nominated by President Obama in October and confirmed by the Senate in January, was sworn in by Fed Governor Daniel Tarullo, the senior member of the Fed's seven-member board.
She replaces two-term Fed chair Ben Bernanke.
Yellen's term will not expire until Feb. 3, 2018.
From the Associated Press:
"She took the oath in a brief ceremony Monday in front of a fireplace in the Fed's massive board room. Her husband, Nobel-winning economist George Akerloff, was present as were other Fed board members and Fed staff.
"The 67-year-old Yellen made no remarks at her swearing in but did smile to acknowledge the applause of the assembled group."

I'd like to see a few changes for the NZ test team against India, presumably all players will be fit & im guessing they could use up to 14 players in the 2 tests.
Mark Richardson - pretty easy selection, he's NZ's best opener at the moment.
Gary Stead - has the Australian attitude & is experienced & gritty, has quite a good test average & was strangely dropped by the selectors a couple of years back for god knows why.
Lou Vincent - im guessing that Vincent will retain his place in the side as an opener, although im not too keen on the idea. Regardless of whether he opens or not he'll be selected.
Middle Order:
Stephen Fleming - Unless Fleming suddenly has a mental break-down or angers the hierachy, it's highly unlikely he'll be missing.
Nathan Astle - Astle is a different player when he's in NZ conditions and he'd be the 1st one picked.
Craig McMillan - Like Astle, McMillan is extremely good at home, so his selection is fairly easy.
Mathew Sinclair - Despite being in & out of the side, Sinclair has really only struggled against Australia so its likely that NZ will want to put him in against India.
Chris Cairns - Presumably, Cairns is going to be fit so like Astle he'll be one of the 1st names down.
Andre Adams - Its fair to say that Andre Adams is light-years ahead of Scott Styris in the skills department & personally Adams would be better suited to the type of attacking play the Indians like to bring.
Robbie Hart - Hart did an excellent job in the West Indies of gutsing it out with the bat & its unlikely he'll be dropped.
Shane Bond - Shane Bond is just an automatic choice at the moment, simply he's one of NZ's best pace bowlers we've had in a long time.
Daniel Vettori - Vettori looked to be in good form in Sri Lanka & nobody will be questioning his selection anyway.
Shayne O'Connor - O'Connor is apparently almost fully fit after a lengthy lay-off & considering that the tests will be played at Wellington & Hamilton he'd definately be in contention for a test spot.
Joseph Yovich - Yovich is easily the 2nd quickest bowler in NZ behind Bond despite what Hadlee said about Butler. Yovich can also hold a bat which will help push his case to the selectors.
Players that I think should be there or will be there or there abouts:
Brendon McCullum - There's no denying that McCullum is as good attacking batsmen as they come, but I feel the selectors will want him to play some more first class cricket.
Ian Butler - Butler was starting to improve in the West Indies, and he'll be in consideration for the Indian series however the selectors will worry (& so will I) that if he gets it wrong, India will deal to him.
Matt Horne - A very good first class players, but has never really been consistent enough for NZ. I think there are better options than Horne at the moment.
Peter Fulton - Fulton is one player i'd really like to see play tests, but at this stage im probably just dreaming...he needs a good FC season to back my comments up.
Others would be Michael Papps, Scott Styris, Daryl Tuffey, Brooke Walker, & the list goes on.

You didn't already put salt in, did you? You shouldn't salt it until the very end, so it stays juicy. You should punch down the middle so the burger doesn't balloon out. Didn't you already turn that one? You shouldn't turn it so much. Now it looks like you're hitting me in the face with your spatula. You shouldn't use the same spatula you use for food for face slapping. It's unsanitary. No, no, no, you shouldn't slam my face on THIS part of the grill. This part is cooler and generally used for keeping cooked foods warm. If you really want to cause me pain, really get a good sear going, you should slam it over here where the coals are stacked higher.
Hey, this burger still looks a little red. Can you put it on a little longer for me? ... A little longer, I still see some pink there ... Yeah just a little longer, it's still a bit brown ... Yeah, gosh, I'm sorry, but I want it to be completely black and turn to dust in my mouth like a forgotten dream. That one looks good ... yeah, this is great! Oh, that's a charcoal briquette? Interesting!
No, that's fine, don't go out of your way. I'm used to not being able to eat anything. Just one of the sacrifices I make every day. Yeah, I saw the bean salad, I'm going to pile that up on my plate right now, but never actually eat it even though you made it just for me. I'll just sit here looking glum and occasionally whisper something to the guy who brought me here while I poke at the beans disapprovingly. Don't worry about what I'm saying! Yes, I DID see the grilled vegetables. I ALSO saw how they were grilled on the same grill as the burgers. So I'll pass. It's fine! Really, it's fine! I like doing this. For the animals. And the environment. If I had wanted to eat something, I would have brought something. After all, you did call this Mike's Meatacular Meatsplosion of Many Meats, so I should have known. And it's a potluck, so it definitely would have been appropriate for me to bring something.
I'm so hungry.
But don't worry about it.
This is no barbecue! No, deceiver, this is grilling! I came expecting meat slow-cooked for hours! Hours! But here I find no beef ribs, or pork ribs, or moist brisket, but burgers and hot dogs, licked by Hellfire for mere MINUTES! I hear agents of the devil say, 'This event is at noon, surely you didn't expect Mike to cook meat through the whole night,' or 'Barbecue is a regional term that can just as easily refer to the event, the food, or the device the food is cooked on,' or 'Shut the hell up already, no one cares.' Sinners all! For know this: I come from the Holy Land of Barbecue, The South, and the true voice of Barbecue has spoken to me, saying, 'Let any grilling session be called a "cookout," even if use of that term outside my region will sow confusion.' Amen.

On this day — Rick O'Donnell slams the door as he leaves the UT System after a tumultuous five weeks; the Senate closes the revenue gap in their version of the budget; the House Redistricting Committee votes out a map that costs Harris County a seat in the House; and the House votes to add a literacy prerequisite for jury duty
***O'Donnell Leaves UT Position
Controversial UT System advisor Rick O'Donnell has left the building and his exit isn't what you would call quiet; the Express-News' Melissa Ludwig reports. The day before he left, he sent a regent a four-page letter (embedded below) that accused the UT Administration of stonewalling his efforts at overhauling the system.
O'Donnell and the UT Board of Regents have been under fire since his hire was announced in late February. Influential UT donors, administration, faculty and the UT-Austin student body have vigorously fought back against O'Donnell — and by proxy Jeff Sandefer, Alex Cranberg and Gov. Rick Perry — and the push to deemphasize research and enlarge class sizes as a way to cut tuition.
O'Donnell wrote a letter Monday accusing administrators "at the highest levels" of UT Austin and the system of blocking his efforts to get data that reveal an increasing share of tuition and taxpayer dollars going to professors and administrators who do little teaching.
In a statement released to news media, O'Donnell wrote, "I want to thank the Regents for the opportunity to work the last six weeks on the central question that has driven all my higher education work during my career: trying to discover ever better ways to ensure that as many students as possible have access to the highest quality college education at the most affordable cost."
On Tuesday, UT System spokesman Anthony de Bruyn would say only that O'Donnell is "no longer working for the UT System," but the news follows a firestorm of criticism over O'Donnell's hiring and an Express-News analysis that turned up dozens of errors in a paper O'Donnell wrote dismissing most academic research as a waste of taxpayer money.
– The Texas Tribune's Reeve Hamilton breaks the news of O'Donnell's hire by the Board of Regents.
– The Houston Chronicle's Patti Hart detailed Sandefer's involvement at A&M and his quest to overhaul UT
– The Chronicle's Joe Holley and Patti Hart report on how Rick O'Donnell's hire seemed to bypass many of the usual rules.
– The San Antonio Express-News' Melissa Ludwig spearheaded an analysis by the Express-News and Chronicle, which found significant errors in the findings and citations of a white paper Rick O'Donnell wrote, which became the foundation for TPPF and the Governor to push for the higher education overhaul.
– Patti Hart reports on that the Governor's office has been much more involved in pushing Jeff Sandefer's 'Seven-Solutions' than Gov. Rick Perry has let on in his statements.
***Senate Finds More Revenue
Houston Chronicle/San Antonio Express-News Austin Bureau Chief Peggy Fikac reports that the a special subcommittee established to find new sources of 'non-tax' government revenue to ease significant coming budget cuts has turned up $4.2 billion in loose change under the couch.
Sen. Robert Duncan, R-Lubbock, on Tuesday outlined a much-anticipated list of so-called non-tax revenue items that would add more than $4 billion to spending.
Two big-ticket revenue items match those backed a day earlier by House budget-writers: delaying the state's payment to schools just long enough to push it into the next fiscal cycle, freeing $1.8 billion, and speeding up tax collections to get more than $1 billion.
Neither creates money, but each would change the time frame in which money would be paid or collected so lawmakers can use the funds in the coming two-year budget period.
***Down One in Harris County?
The House Redistricting Committee voted out a map that would cut the number of districts in Harris County from 25 to 24. The reduction comes from a combination of two majority/minority districts. Democrats and civil rights groups believe the map would violate the Voting Rights Act, the Houston Chronicle's Joe Holley reports:
The four Democrats on the committee were not satisfied with their chairman's changes. Contending that the Solomons map still does not properly reflect the growth in the state's Latino population during the past decade, they offered several amendments. All were rejected.
"The plan passed out of committee today splits communities of interest and denies proper representation to people of color — but particularly Hispanics — who drove the population growth in Texas for the past decade," declared state Rep. Robert Alonzo, D-Dallas.
In addition to the four Democrats on the committee, Rep. Harvey Hilderbran, R-Kerrville, voted against the bill.
Committee member Carol Alvarado, D-Houston, objected to the speed with which the Solomons plan was adopted, saying it did not allow the committee time to consider changes made to the bill Tuesday.
***A New Excuse to Get Out of Jury Duty
Chronicle/Express-News Austin Bureau reporter Gary Scharrer reports that the House passed a measure yesterday that would allow judges to disqualify potential jurors if they can't read or speak English.
Supporters say it simply codifies existing practice because current law requires a juror to be able to read and write.
"Adding the word 'English' really just made it come off the page," lawyer Harold Dutton, D-Houston, said.
Critics say the bill is mostly symbolic but fear that it could result in Hispanics being unfairly removed as potential jurors.
***New Questions About Asher Brown Suicide
Documents obtained by the Houston Chronicle raise new questions about Asher Brown's home life in the months before he committed suicide. The documents, from a CPS investigation stemming from the suicide, state that Brown's step-father regularly abused Asher and his brother; at one point, even putting a loaded gun in Asher's brother's mouth. The details about Asher's home life came to light the same day that his parents filed a federal lawsuit, alleging that the Cyfair School District violated his civil rights by not cracking down on bullying.
The Houston Chronicle's Terri Langford and Nolan Hicks report on the lawsuit and the new revelations about Asher's homelife:
After Asher died, Texas Child Protective Services began investigating the care of the boys.
CPS reports filed in the surviving brother's foster care court case state that David Truong was a strict disciplinarian, telling the boys to kneel for hours at a time on a brick fireplace hearth as punishment.
"Mr. Truong said that when he disciplines the children he would give them timeouts and make them kneel on their knees until they realized what they did was wrong," the CPS court report stated. "He said the amount of time they had to kneel on their knees was determined by the boys when and if they decided to tell the truth."
Asher's older brother told CPS officials that his stepfather once threatened the boys with guns, including placing a gun in the older boy's mouth. CPS placed the surviving boy in foster care.
Their parents said Tuesday that was not true and that their stepfather had taken out the guns to teach them about gun safety.

Middle Eastern airlines are now hugely influential when it comes to defining new aircraft models
For more than a decade, Persian Gulf carriers have collectively helped shape the long-range airliner product development strategy for both Airbus and Boeing and the world's high-capacity air transport markets. With the advent of the Boeing 777X and possible Airbus A350, and A380 upgrades, their influence looks like it will only grow.
The impact of airlines such as Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways on performance requirements has therefore evolved into something considerably greater than the sum of their parts. As a result, even though the airlines of the region in themselves represent a sizeable chunk of both the Airbus and Boeing market forecasts, their influence extends out of all proportion around the globe. Having placed themselves at the nexus of an ever-growing network of interconnecting global routes, they have driven airframe and engine manufacturers to reach new levels of range and payload capability.
Because of the geographic location of their hubs, the Middle Eastern carriers require more range than most others. A flight to New York is not an eight-hr. mission like it would be for Lufthansa or Air France, but can be a trip in excess of 14 hr. against winter headwinds. Trips to the U.S. West Coast can reach 17 hr., much like flights to Latin American destinations, which are increasingly linked to Middle East networks. Carriers claim they can connect any two markets on the globe with only one stop somewhere in the Persian Gulf region, and they need aircraft with long legs to keep that promise.
But Airbus and Boeing risk having to produce aircraft that are designed only for a part of the market, with European, U.S. and Asian airlines having to deal with heavier and more capable aircraft than they require. And the manufacturers have to avoid at all costs developing more slow-sellers like the Boeing 777-200LR or the Airbus A340-500. The second life of the A330 can partially be explained by the fact that the aircraft is all many airlines need as far as range is concerned. Lufthansa and Air France are flying the aircraft to the U.S. West Coast and Latin America. And the recently launched Boeing 787-10 is targeting that—arguably large—segment as well.
In particular, Emirates and Qatar Airways are not only influential in terms of aircraft design because of their large orderbooks. They are also run by charismatic executives—Tim Clark and Akbar Al Baker—who have been very public about their aircraft requirements. That is unusual in an industry that is used to confidential, behind-the-scenes conversations. Etihad's James Hogan is not publicly challenging the manufacturers to the same extent as his colleagues.
In spite of Qatar's and Etihad's efforts to catch up, Emirates still has by far the largest orderbook. The airline has outstanding orders for 70 A350-1000s, 53 A380s and 61 Boeing 777-300ERs. Emirates is also widely expected to sign up for at least 100 Boeing 777Xs at this month's Dubai Airshow.
Etihad's order backlog is relatively small by Persian Gulf carrier standards. It comprises seven A320s and A321s each, two A330-200s, one A330F, 12 A350-1000s, 10 A380s, 41 Boeing 787-9s and one 777-300ER. However, Etihad is also seen as another candidate for a huge 777X order.
Late last month, Qatar's Al Baker indicated that the carrier might order the 777X for the first time, but cautioned that would happen only if the time were right. He nevertheless confirmed that Qatar will place an aircraft order at the Dubai Airshow. Al Baker also hinted that the airline would be interested in a further A350 stretch if it meets its payload/range requirements.
Qatar is the only of the three big Persian Gulf carriers that has large outstanding orders for narrowbodies. The airline is awaiting delivery of 31 A320s (among them, the first A320neo) and 20 A321s. But Qatar will also receive 43 A350-900s, 37 -1000s, 10 A380s and 22 more Boeing 787-8s, plus five 777-300ERs and three 777Fs.
Nowhere is the importance of the Persian Gulf carriers more visible than in the Airbus A380 program. The three airlines alone account for almost exactly half of the official order backlog (73 of 148 aircraft). If all of the 23 aircraft that are unlikely to ever be delivered (to Kingfisher Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, Air Austral and Virgin Atlantic) are taken off the official list, it becomes even more obvious that the A380 program would be in even deeper trouble without the three Middle Eastern airlines.
Emirates, in particular, has been the single most important advocate of the aircraft, given that it is building its Dubai hub around the efficiencies and volumes the large jet provides. It is also the only carrier at this point that wants Airbus to go ahead with the A380-900 and stretch the aircraft further. While such a project would certainly only be considered for the period well beyond 2020, it now looks that Airbus will study upgrading and improving the existing -800 before considering an even larger aircraft.
Although it would be inaccurate to identify Emirates as the only driver behind the program—support for the launch of the original A380 had been broad inside Airbus in the late 1990s—the case illustrates that it can be dangerous to become infatuated with the requirements of one particular airline. Given sluggish demand for the type elsewhere, Airbus can only hope that Emirates finds a place for more of the aircraft. Clark wants to buy another 20 A380s if Dubai International Airport can accommodate them.
The A350-1000 is the most obvious example of Persian Gulf carriers' intervention in the design process. Emirates, notably, doubted that its engines were powerful enough and that the aircraft would have the required range. Along with Qatar Airways, the airline put significant pressure on Airbus. "Some say the A350-1000 needs to take on more thrust and weight, and I believe that to be the case," Emirates' Clark said before the latest redesign. And Al Baker wanted "increased takeoff weight and increased range."
The two got it their way. Airbus delayed the aircraft's entry into service to allow time for Rolls-Royce to raise engine thrust from 93,000 to 97,000 lb. The Persian Gulf carriers' appetite for larger aircraft has also been a factor in Airbus's notable lack of interest in building the -800, the smallest A350 version.
Since the 777X will be launched largely on the strength of Persian Gulf carriers' orders, industry sources point at their massive influence in the aircraft's design. This is most clear for the smaller -8X, which Boeing pitches as an aircraft roughly the size of the current 777-300ER, but with extreme range capabilities.
Boeing's 777 development strategy shows how requirements for a growing part of the long-haul aircraft market have changed. Originally designed primarily as a DC-10 replacement for domestic U.S. carriers, the big Boeing twin swiftly evolved into a long-range workhorse for the world's airlines before the influence of mainly Middle Eastern and Asian operators led to the dominance of the current 777-200LR/300ER long-range generation. This process is on the cusp of evolving to the next phase with the 777-8X/9X.
"They [Persian Gulf-based airlines] clearly had tremendous market success and we continue to work very closely with them as their business model continues to develop," says John Wojick, Boeing's global sales senior vice president. "We see quite a lot of growth in the region in general, and they've shown themselves to be formidable competitors in the industry. They created a model that's all about long-haul capacity and connecting long-distance routes around the world through hubs—it certainly has our interest."
But while some argue that pandering to the excessive range requirements of these and similar Asian-based carriers has led to limited success in the case of niche market products like the 777-200LR and A340-500, Wojick says the needs of the Middle East carriers simply form a bellwether for the rest of the world. "It's not a stand-alone phenomenon. The 787, for example, is a testament to our processes. When we looked around the world and saw what people want to do, we saw they wanted to get from Point A to Point B. So we developed the 787 for city pairs, and the Middle East carriers have capitalized on this desire. They've been able to connect city pairs that have never been connected before."
"The 787 was designed around that philosophy, and now we have over 979 orders to date across a range of 220 seats all the way to 350 seats [the 787-10]. So we're looking at how we extend that with the 777, which today services the market with the -300ER and -200LR, and evolve it with the 8X/9X. Those are going to allow airlines to connect city pairs with an aircraft [777-9X] that burns over 20 percent less fuel [per seat], and has cash operating costs 15 percent lower relative to the -300ER, which has already largely obsoleted other aircraft," Wojick explains.
The Middle East is the battleground where the fortunes of these new products could be largely won or lost. The competition with the smaller 350-seat A350-1000 forms the focus, with Boeing pushing further sales of the existing 777-300ER while refining the design performance of both the 777-8X and -9X to counter the challenge of the Airbus twin. Wojick refutes the Airbus claims that the A350-1000 is a "777 killer," despite the fact that seven well-established 777-300ER operators (including British Airways and Japan Airlines) have ordered the A350-1000. "In terms of the 777-300ER, we've sold more of them in the time period that they've been offering A350-1000s, so the data would prove that's not the case. As for the future, when we look to 2020 and beyond, we know we can offer an aircraft that's better in terms of fuel burn and emissions."
While Boeing strives to improve the range-payload performance of the 777X for the Persian Gulf carriers by reportedly increasing both maximum takeoff weight and engine power, the company is eager to show its overarching twin-aisle development strategy reflects the needs of the wider market. The 787-10, a double-stretch of the 787-8, will "capitalize on fuel efficiency," states Wojick. "Instead of increasing thrust and range, we believe the airlines would rather have efficiency and a reduction in range. This is about 1,000 nautical miles but it still allows them to service more than 90 percent of the routes served by twins today. We give people a choice. We have the opportunity for them to buy an efficient 300-passenger 787-10, or the 300-passenger 777-8X that has adequate range and which can open up new missions. So by having two products within close proximity in terms of capacity, we can offer a choice of over and under 7,000 nautical miles."

A Beijing court sentenced Li Tianyi, the son of a famous Chinese "singing general" in the People's Liberation Army, to 10 years in jail on Thursday over a gang rape that unleashed public outrage at the behavior of China's "princelings," or children of the political elite.
The Haidian People's Court sentenced Li, 17, and four other defendants to jail terms ranging from three to 12 years over the gang rape of a woman in a hotel room in February. Li, also known as Li Guanfeng, denied the charges, telling the court he was drunk and could recall little of the night in question.
He denied beating or having sex with the woman despite his four co-accused issuing guilty pleas by the trial's end, state media reported.
Lawyers for the accused argued in pre-trial hearings that the woman was a prostitute, and the matter should be tried as a prostitution matter, rather than a rape case. In handing down the verdict, the court said the evidence was "adequate" to uphold the rape charges.
Users on Chinese social media applauded the verdict, hailing it as a victory of justice over the infamous "taizidang," or "princelings," who are widely regarded as spoiled and corrupt.
"The bastard is finally charged. God finally works," wrote a user called @Jiaxinglantianxiadezhiai on the popular Chinese micro-blogging service Sina Weibo.
However, others doubted that he would serve out his full sentence.
"After people stop closely watching this case, he will get out of jail immediately. It's always easy as long as you have money," posted one user called @Miya-Qiu.
Li — the son of a PLA celebrity officer known as the "singing general" for his televised renditions of patriotic anthems — previously made headlines in 2011 when he attacked a family in a road rage incident, threatened bystanders and dared them to call police.
The incident provoked an outcry when it came to light that he had 36 prior traffic violations for driving without a license. He was subsequently sent to a juvenile detention center for a year, and his father issued a public apology.
Li's mother Meng Ge, who is also a celebrity singer in the PLA, also came under under fire on social media after she blamed society for her son's behavior.
Public opinion has been mounting against the so-called princelings since an incident in 2010, when the drunk-driving 22-year-old son of a deputy provincial police chief fatally ran over a student and shouted: "Sue me if you dare! My father is Li Gang!" The phrase has since become
synonymous with nepotism and corruption in China.
President Xi Jinping has launched a high-profile anti-corruption campaign in response to public discontent with corrupt officials, publicly rebuking PLA musicians following a series of embarrassing reports detailing their privileged lifestyles and exposing incidents of commercial exploitation of their positions.
The dressing down was accompanied by new measures, signed off by Xi and detailed in the PLA Daily, the official organ of China's armed forces, designed to curb the excesses of military musical troupes.
Xi's wife, the noted soprano Peng Liyuan, herself served in a PLA performance troupe.

Battlefield Reporter, Pennsic Independent
Greetings once again to all my fellow SCA warrior watchers and the warriors who keep us entertained and enthralled at these great Pennsic Wars!
With the majority of the brawling throng still finding its way onto site, I thought it might be a good idea to review "what's up" on this year's Pennsic Battlefield schedule.
Change is a constant on the battlefield schedule from year to year and this year is no different.
If there's a catchphrase for this year's schedule, it would be "Fight all you want, we'll have more battles."
In honor of Pennsic War XXXVII, the number of War Points this year is 37. That's the biggest number of War Points in Pennsic history, nearly double last year's total (21).
What's more, that number is weighted toward mass heavy battles.
Three Points will be offered to the rapier fighters, including the rapier champions, while the traditional four Points will be given to archery and four more Points are allotted for heavy fighting champions' battles.
That leaves a whopping 26 points to be decided in six mass battles. Any fighter who leaves Pennsic this year claiming he didn't get enough stick time has no one but himself to blame.
Let's break it down battle-by-battle. There are some new fights and some twists on some old battles which should make things very interesting this year.Remember, although these battles are listed on the official battlefield schedule, all battle times are approximate and subject to change:
* Gates of Rome Battle @ 10 a.m. Monday Aug. 4 (5 points) -> The newest "concept" battle at Pennsic, this will be a 60-minute, unlimited resurrection affair fought over five gates in the "Aurelian Wall" around Rome. The wall will run diagonally across the main battlefield at Pennsic and a banner will be at each of the five gates. Control of each banner will be worth one War Point at the end of the battle. By the way, combat archery and siege weapons are allowed. This should be a fun.
* Woods Battle @ 11 a.m. Tuesday Aug. 5 (5 points) -> The Pennsic original returns with simplified rules this year: 120 minutes of unlimited resurrection warfare; five banners to fight over; control of each banner at the end of the fight awards one War Point. It's still impossible to watch, but it's still a lot of fun to fight, so they tell me.
* Town Battle @ 10 a.m. Wednesday Aug. 6 (5 points) -> A 90-minute unlimited resurrection fight, this battle will be fought over five flags stashed throughout the town. Marshals will check who "owns" each flag every 15 minutes, with majority ownership of each flag earning a War Point. I smell a tactical affair.
* Mountain Pass Battle @ 2 p.m. Wednesday Aug. 6 (3 points) -> That's right; two mass battles in one day.
This will be a one-hour, unlimited resurrection affair will be fought over three banners, with control of each banner at the end earned a War Point. Be aware, this is the battle where the combat archers and siege engineers like to play and ballista bolts don't care where or not a spectator wears armor.
* Bridge Battle @ 10 a.m. Thursday Aug. 6 (3 points) -> I admit this is my favorite battle to watch because it can be so tactical. There will be three fights over five bridges. Whichever side controls the center of the bridges after 30 minutes (or rolls over the field) will claim a War Point after each fight.
* Field Battle @ 10 a.m. Friday Aug. 7 (5 points) -> The main event takes its place as the last big War Points fight with five individual battles, each worth one War Point. The first two fights will be last-man-standing brawls with only hand-held weapons, while fights four and five will allow for combat archery and siege weapons. The third fight however, will be the most unique. In this battle, TRMs Konrad and Lutr will each take the field with a banner-bearer. The object of this fight will be to kill the opposition king and force him to retire his banner before the enemy does the same to yours. (Video game fans will recognize this as a "regicide" game Ð only this one is live action!)
There are the big battles of the week in a nutshell. It's going to be a long, fun War.
I can't wait to see all of you on the field. To Arms!

The 26th annual MTV Video Music Awards air live this Sunday night from Los Angeles, and judging from the show's checkered history, it's impossible to know what storyline will dominate the headlines Monday morning.
Kanye West, who dominated headlines last year after he hijacked pop starlet Taylor Swift's acceptance speech, is set to take the stage again at this year's awards. The performance has sparked rumors of a possible reunion between the hip hop artist and Swift.
Acid-tongued talk show host Chelsea Handler is the ringmaster of this year's high-powered celebrity circus and she's already cracking her whip at every star in sight. In a series of interviews with MTV News in advance of the show, she's already expressed her desire to make out with Eminem ("I don't see why I wouldn't"), called Justin Bieber a "sexual deviant" ("He's using the flirty card with everyone he meets, and I'm not gonna fall for that") and marveled at Lady Gaga's elaborate costumes ("Whatever she wears is amazing. You could watch her for hours and just eat cereal. You don't even need the cereal").
The ubiquitous Gaga gathered a record 13 nominations this year for "Bad Romance," which is up for Best Female Video, Best Pop Video and Best Dance Music Video. Eminem's "Not Afraid," from his triumphant comeback album "Recovery," follows with 8 nominations and will go head-to-head with Gaga for Video of the Year.
The race for Best New Artist promises to be highly competitive and will likely come down to either tween superstar Justin Bieber for "Baby" or to Ke$ha for her inescapable "Tik Tok," though indie super band Broken Bells could sneak through the back door.
The battle over the Best Collaboration moon man has an interesting sub-plot involving pop music's reigning power couple. Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" with Alicia Keys squares off against not one, but two Beyonce videos, "Telephone" and "Video Phone (Extended Remix)" both made with, who else, Lady Gaga.
Eminem leads a strong stable of performers that also includes West, Bieber, his mentor Usher and Canadian rap sensation Drake.
The list of presenters is also impressive with Justin Timberlake, "Glee's" Jane Lynch, Ellen DeGeneres, Rick Ross "Twilight's" Ashley Greene, Kim Kardashian, "Gossip Girl's" Penn Badgley and, yes, the cast of "Jersey Shore" on hand to give out the night's awards.
Travis West, a former competitor on "So You Think You Can Dance" and lead choreographer for this year's VMAs, thinks this year's show has the potential to be special.
"The stage here, the set is really futuristic and spacey," he said." We wanted to create something epic for the VMAs this year."
Tune in at 9 p.m. on Sunday to find out just how epic it will be.
Check out Lady Gaga's video for "Bad Romance," the second most popular YouTube video of all time with over 270 milion views as of September 2010. Only Justin Bieber's "Baby," has more views.

Advertisers Spend Much More With Facebook But Twitter Performs Better
Advertisers are spending a lot more money on Facebook than Twitter--even though Twitter ads deliver better results.
That's the conclusion of a new research report issued by Resolution, a social and search advertising focused agency under the Omnicom umbrella. Based on an analysis of 20 clients' social media activity in 2013 representing $37 million in ad spending, Resolution found that Twitter ads generate clicks at a significantly higher rate than Facebook. As a result, the firm found, advertisers are significantly dialing up their Twitter ad spending.
Still, the agency says that its clients, which include Pepsi, Lowes, State Farm, McDonald's, HP , Pier 1, Hertz and FedEx, spent 127 percent more ad dollars with Facebook than Twitter.
On the surface, that makes logical sense, as Facebook boasts of 1.2 billion users vs. Twitter's 241 million monthly users. During its initial earning report in February, Twitter announced solid ad revenue growth--including $220 million in the fourth quarter of 2013, despite a slowdown in new user adoption. Meanwhile, Facebook's last few earnings reports have been stellar, particularly as its mobile ad business has taken off.
While keeping in mind that Resolution's data may be skewed by its particular roster of brands and their unique social media goals, Twitter appears to have major ad momentum. Retailers, for instance, boosted their ad spending on Twitter 257% from third quarter to fourth quarter last year, while their spending on Facebook surged by 94 percent over the same period, Resolution said.
Similarly, what Resolution defines as "Business & Consumer Services" saw its Twitter ad spending soar by 361 percent in the fourth quarter over the third quarter, versus Facebook's still huge 211 percent increase. Over the course of 2013, Twitter ad spending for the "Business & Consumer Services" ballooned 297 percent, found Resolution.
Why is Twitter growing despite a much smaller audience? For one, Twitter has rolled out several compelling new offerings that connects its ads directly to TV shows and commercials, Resolution's report notes.
Also, Twitter generates more clicks on its ads. One reason could be that it sells far less ad inventory than Facebook. Another explanation that Resolution noted: "Twitter ads...generate clicks at a much higher rate as advertisers integrate them tightly with broad trends and conversations, serving up straightforward messaging and content directly into relevant conversation streams."
"Importantly, Twitter ads appear within a less cluttered environment than Facebook ads, in the user's Twitter timeline with few additional advertisers," the firm said.

Some Case Studies in Cooperative Simplification of Accounting Procedures
by FREDDIE C. RYAN Senior Accountant, Houston Office
Presented before the County Auditors Association of Texas, Austin—October 1964
WHAT are your thoughts when you think of simplification in your accounting procedures? Do you think of sophisticated computers? reproduction equipment? more personnel? or merely in terms of carbon paper, streamlined forms, and fewer reports? In any circumstance you may be correct because simplification is a state of mind! Achievement of simplification is by transition from the norm to the new with satisfactory results. The satisfactory results may be recognized and accepted by about everyone or they may be the choice of one person and become accepted by others through use.
The frontiersman needing water drank from available streams. In time he settled near his water supply. Then in order to save steps he invented the bucket. The bucket in time was replaced by pipe and pump. The resulting steps of simplification generally are recognized and accepted by all of us.
However, as an example of one person's simple choice becoming accepted by others through use, I call to your attention the several ways of expressing the term "87 years." The most obvious of course is to just say "87." Other ways are "80 + 7"; "90 - 3"; "100 - 13"; or 8 decades plus 7 years; and infinitely more. As has probably occurred to you, a particular great author used the phrase "four score and seven years ago ..." as his simple choice and this subsequently, I dare say, has gained acceptance from us all.
When dealing with the case studies of simplification of accounting procedures that follow, we are working with the ideas of one person of authority,
the results of which became accepted through use.
The first study deals with the procedure used by a Probate Judge to maintain records relating to administrators' bonds, inventory reports, and annual accountings. The records were maintained by the Probate Judge (who also was the County Judge) and one employee in the County Clerk's office. The records were handwritten and arranged in loose-leaf binders by case number. The number of cases requiring annual attention

Obama on offense for liberalism
Barack Obama began his second term by delivering the most ideologically ambitious speech since Ronald Reagan's first inaugural address a generation and a half ago.
Reagan announced his conservative intentions by arguing, "In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem."
Story Continued Below
Just as forthrightly, Obama argued the opposite, announcing his progressive intentions for a second term: to defend the aims of the entitlement state, to take on climate-change deniers, to promote gay rights and equal pay for women, to extract the country from "perpetual war" and instead refashion America's reputation at home and overseas as a "source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice."
( See also: Complete coverage of the Inauguration 2013)
Even that word — progressive — doesn't quite do the speech justice. That is a euphemism taken on for defensive purposes, when the traditional word for an ideology that believed in robustly using federal power for humanitarian ends — liberalism — came to be used primarily as a weapon against its adherents.
That was one of the most striking elements of Obama's address: There was nothing defensive about it. He clearly believes that the 2012 election, for all its snarling and divisive tone, served a useful purpose. By his reckoning, it demonstrated that there are more people on his side — immigrants, minorities, liberal-minded young people and women, beneficiaries of big government — than there are on the other side — older whites, cultural traditionalists, wealthy and upper-middle-class earners who recoil at what they see as the remorseless expansion of government and resent being stuck with the bill.
( PHOTOS: Inauguration weekend 2013)
One speech doesn't mean Obama has abandoned a political career marked by cautious pragmatism, or unmasked himself as someone who'd never cut Medicare to balance the budget, or play the political odds by abandoning one part of his agenda to salvage another, as he did with immigration in the first term. But with a series of direct and implicit references to the Declaration of Independence, Lincoln's second inaugural address, Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal and the social movements of the 1960s, he sought to rebuff efforts by conservatives to brand his politics as alien and exotic and instead tie liberalism to a long American tradition.
In that sense, he seemed to want to use his second inaugural not simply to ratify his reelection, but to ratify a turn in the cycles of American politics. He did not want to talk primarily about process and democratic procedure — the ritual calls from several recent inaugurals, including his first, for more civility and goodwill. There was a nod to that this time, but his preoccupation was not with how the nation conducts its politics but to the substantive ends: Who will benefit from government power?
( PHOTOS: 12 great inaugural quotes)
In so doing, he highlighted a turn in the cycles of his own career. A traditional liberal in Illinois politics, Obama began his ascent to national power in 2004 with a famous speech at the Democratic National Convention in Boston that downplayed the relevance of ideology. To those who would divide the country between red states and blue, Obama countered, "There's not a liberal America and a conservative America; there's the United States of America."
In much of his first term, meanwhile, he and his aides rebuffed efforts to place him on a philosophical spectrum — was he a Clinton-style centrist or a Ted Kennedy-style activist? — by insisting that ideological arguments bored him and that "pragmatism" was his guiding light.

Cespedes connects for Athletics against Dodgers
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Cuban left fielders Yasiel Puig of the Dodgers and Yoenis Cespedes of the A's homered on Tuesday, and Chris Capuano had his best start of the spring in a 7-1 Dodgers win.
"They're both impressive," said Capuano of Puig and Cespedes. "I don't know what they're feeding them down there."
The rookie Puig, trying to bust his way into an outfield filled with All-Stars, also singled twice and tripled, and stole a base. He's batting .489 with a team-high 10 RBIs. His monster two-run homer in the first inning was immediately followed by Jerry Hairston's solo shot off Oakland starter Dan Straily.
Capuano held the A's scoreless until Cespedes lined his homer over the wall in left-center leading off the fifth inning.
Puig, the $42 million signing last summer, didn't hustle out of the batter's box on his fifth-inning single and was thrown out at second trying to stretch by Cespedes, who initially misplayed the shallow fly, but Puig made up for it by legging out a triple to lead off the bottom of the seventh. Had Puig recorded the double in the fifth, he would have hit for the cycle.
The Dodgers added to their lead in the fifth inning off reliever Jordan Norberto, with Nick Punto's infield single plating a run that was unearned because of shortstop Hiroyuki Nakajima's fielding error.
Capuano, on the bubble to stay in the rotation with a pre-game ERA of 10.61, was removed after 5 2/3 innings having allowed five hits and one walk, with four strikeouts.
Mark Lowe inherited two runners from Capuano and retired Cespedes on a popout to end the sixth inning.
Up next: The A's will enjoy an off-day on Wednesday, but righty Bartolo Colon will pitch in a Minor League game to remain on schedule. Come Thursday, it's lefty Brett Anderson taking the mound in Goodyear for a road contest with the Reds, who will start right-hander Johnny Cueto. Closer Grant Balfour, who has been recovering from minor surgery on his knee, is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut in the game.

FreeBSD is an operating system that traces it's heritage back to the original unix development at AT&T starting in 1970.
The BSD part of the name refers to 'Berkeley Software Distribution' which is also part of it's origin, being mostly a variant of the AT&T unix developed by staff and students at Berkeley University. From there the first 'public' project was called 386BSD reflecting the aim of getting it to run on Intel hardware. While NetBSD forked from 386BSD early on with the aim of supporting as many different hardware architectures as possible, the name FreeBSD was in use later the same year.
While FreeBSD has kept it's focus on a text based system to form a solid base for reliable servers, PC-BSD has focused on a gui desktop version of FreeBSD for the average user.
Don't let the text based focus scare you away, Xorg, gnome, KDE and just about any other open source project will also run happily on a FreeBSD machine. If getting into the technical side of things scares you then PC-BSD can still keep you happy.

Rance doesn't cotton to your shenanigans
Mulliniks' fiery side came out last week in a game between his College of the Sequoias Giants, for whom he is the assistant coach, and Fresno City College.
Damien Marquez of the Visalia Times-Delta reports that after arguing a call at third base, Fresno's Ron Scott turned into a flaming arsewipe douche and started mouthing off at the Giants' bench. That's when Rance stepped in:
"That caught COS assistant coach Rance Mulliniks' attention from the bullpen. He ran towards Scott, the two exchanged some heated words, and both coaches had to be restrained near home plate as players from each team slowly started to walk onto the field.
The umpires did manage to gain control of the situation. Mulliniks was ejected, but Scott was allowed to stay in the game."
Mulliniks was allegedly ejected because he pulled a switchblade and began screaming "IF YOU WANNA DANCE, YOU START WITH RANCE!"
(Actually, that's not true. But we totally wish it was.)
Funny, but Rance always struck us as a mild-mannered pacifist. Or maybe it only seems that way because he is being lulled to sleep by Jamie Campbell all season long.

The idea of Rance as a hot-head coach literally blows my mind. I love it!
- March 31, 2009 at 7:35 PM
But then Garth Iorg came in and finished the second half of the fight for Rance.

Haha. I actually laughed out loud at the Iorg comment, anon.
Why can't he bring some of this fire to the booth? I'd kill to have Fletcher take over full time for him :(

Now that he's snapped, Campbell better keep his head on a swivel in the booth lest he gets knocked the fuck out by Angry Rance.
- April 1, 2009 at 12:33 PM
Do we know if Rance and his unchecked anger will be back in the booth this year? Hope so, he's got a good way of explaining some of the game's finer points to the rest of us meatheads.
- April 1, 2009 at 4:27 PM
I got the Rance Dance in my pants!

This is an excerpt from Delavier's Anatomy for Bigger, Stronger Arms by Frédéric Delavier and Michael Gundill.
You must overcome four problems in order to develop biceps. After reviewing these obstacles, we will explain how to move past them.
This is the main frustration for many people in strength training. Even though you can never have big enough biceps, some people's arms just seem resistant to growth. Visually, small biceps can be dwarfed by large shoulders. The situation is not hopeless. There are innovative strat-egies, often overlooked, that can help you develop your biceps quickly.
A biceps muscle is short when it stops very high above the forearm; this is often the reason for poor muscle development. On the contrary, people with very long biceps (that come far down on the forearm) have an easier time developing the muscle.
The only advantage of short biceps is that they have a better peak (the summit of your biceps when con-tracted). Long biceps have a less pronounced peak.
Unfortunately, you cannot lengthen your biceps. But even though you cannot make your biceps go lower down on your forearm, it is possible to make your forearm climb toward your biceps by developing the brachioradialis (the muscle that joins the biceps and the forearm).
The long and short heads are not always equally developed. You can see this asymmetry when you contract both biceps:
– Seen from the front, a lack of curve and a small peak mean the short head is deficient.
– Seen from the back, a lack of curve means the long head is lacking.
To resolve this problem, you must isolate the work to the head that is lacking.
The brachialis is often underdeveloped. So this is easy mass for you to gain. The brachialis muscle's impact on your appearance does not stop there:
– If one arm is bigger than the other, the size difference is often because the brachialis is more developed in one arm than the other.
– Genetics, in large part, determine the form of the biceps, so a large brachialis can improve the peak by pushing the biceps up.
The problem with the brachialis is not that it develops poorly. More often, it suffers from poor motor recruitment. Many people do exercises that are supposed to work the brachialis without the muscle actually working. You must teach the brachialis to contract by doing specific work on motor learning.

In some cases, in which the ideal line is affected, this can even mean that the putt is not successfully completed.

This combined with individually adjustable ASD weights will enable you to fine-tune your swing trajectory and the parallel alignment of the ASD weight cartridges enables exceptionally accurate targeting.

This famous Russian street that cuts through the center of St. Petersburg is a hub for shopping, nightlife and entertainment, and is lined with historic and picturesque buildings and churches.
Contrasting architectures and wide open spaces are the hallmarks of this extraordinary plaza, which has witnessed historic events like Bloody Sunday and the storming of the Winter Palace and is now the rallying place for every imaginable political demonstration.
One of the most famous art museums in the world, this museum is housed in the Winter Palace, and contains over 2.7 million exhibits including some of the world's greatest works of art.

Countless masterpieces, ranging from 12th-century icons to 20th-century paintings, are displayed at this important art museum housed in the splendid and historically significant Mikhailovsky Palace.
Built as a fortress in 1703 by Peter the Great, this building was used instead as a political prison under the czars, and houses the City History Museum, the Mint, and the Peter and Paul Cathedral.
Once a formal garden built for Peter the Great, this popular park still has more than 80 of the original marble statues and sculptures and houses Peter's Summer Palace, a simply designed two-story building that now displays many of the ruler's own artifacts.
The stage of this internationally renowned theater was graced by Russia's most celebrated classical performers in pre-Revolution days, and is today best known for its famous Kirov Ballet.
Filled with 18th-century paintings and ornate rooms, this white and gold palace is surrounded by a 1400-acre park complete with fountains, bridges, the Agate Pavilion bathhouse and the Great Pond. The Palace also has a famous Amber Room, stolen by Nazi troops during WWII, but now recreated by Russian craftsmen.
