The Correlation Between Music and Math: A Neurobiology Perspective
Cindy Zhan
I remember the first time I heard the statement "Did you know that listening to classical music enhances your mathematical abilities?" I was both intrigued and excited, intrigued because I did not understand how music and math, two seemingly unrelated subject could possibly affect each other. I was also excited because I began to view classical music as some kind of magical potion that would transform my math skills from decent to extraordinary. When I had the opportunity to write this web paper, I immediately jumped into the topic of music and math. The questions that I wish to answer throughout this paper are; does listening to music really help you do better in math? If so, which part of the brain is controlling the correlation between math and music? In addition, how does music stimulate the brain in a way that enhances mathematical abilities?
It turns out that there is much evidence that supports the positive effects of music on one's ability to do math. Most research shows that when children are trained in music at a young age, they tend to improve in their math skills. The surprising thing in this research is not that music as a whole is enhancing math skills. It is certain aspects of music that are affecting mathematics ability in a big way. Studies done mostly in children of young age show that their academic performance increases after a certain period of music education and training. One particular study published in the journal 'Nature' showed that when groups of first graders were given music instruction that emphasized sequential skill development and musical games involving rhythmn and pitch, after six months, the students scored significantly better in math than students in groups that received traditional music instruction. (1)
The result of this study posed another important question. How does
this type of music that emphasized sequential skills, rhythmn and pitch
manage to improve children's ability to do math? It turned out that
there are two distinguished types of reasoning, spatial temporal (ST)
reasoning and Language analytical (LA) reasoning. LA reasoning would be
involved in solving equations and obtaining a quantitative result. ST
reasoning would be is utilized in activities like chess when one needs
to think ahead several moves. The effect of music on math sometimes
termed the Mozart effect. The Mozart effect gain its name after the
discovery that listening to Mozart's compositions, which is very
sequential, produces a short-termed enhancement of spatial-temporal
reasoning. Some key reasoning features used in spatial temporal
reasoning are
1. The transformation and relating of mental images in space and time
2. Symmetries of the inherent cortical firing patterns used to compare physical and mental images and
3. Natural temporal sequences of those inherent cortical patterns (3).
The same people who conducted the Mozart effect experiment also suggested that spatial-temporal reasoning is crucial in math. The areas of math that require ST reasoning are geometry and certain aspects of calculus, which require transformations of images in space and time. In higher mathematics, the ability to write mathematical proofs is also associated with ST reasoning because proof writing is a task that requires intuitive sense of natural sequences and the ability to think ahead several steps.
As to the question, what part of the brain controls the correlation between math and music, there are also many resources that provide answers. Dr. Gottfried Schlaug, found that certain regions of the brain such as the corpus callosum and the right motor cortex, were larger in musician who started their musical training before the age of 7 (2). As to what happens in that area of the brain when one listens to music, we turn to the experiment performed by Xiaodeng Leng and Gordon Shaw. Gordon and Leng developed a model of higher brain function, which is based on the trion model. The trion model is a highly structured mathematical realization of the Mountcastle organization principle, with the column as the basic neuronal network in mammalian cortex. The column comprises minicolumns called trions. One particular columnar network of trions has a large repertoire of spatial-temporal firing patterns, which can be excited and used in memory and higher brain functions (3). Shaw and Leng performed an experiment in which they mapped the trion model of firing patterns in that particular column onto various pitches and instruments producing recognizable styles of music. This mapping of the trions gaves insight to relate the neuronal processes involved in music and abstract spatial-temporal reasoning (3). It shows that the part of the cortex, which contains the repertoire of spatial-temporal firing patterns, can be excited by music and is utilized in higher brain functions such as spatial-temporal thinking in mathematics.
In conclusion, my research into math and music does seem to suggest that music enhances mathematics skills. Music targets one specific area of the brain to stimulate the use of spatial-temporal reasoning, which is useful in mathematical thinking. However, as to the question of whether or not music is the magical portion that will elevate anyone's ability to do math, the answer unfortunately . . .would be no. Just because most mathematicians are fond of music, dosen't mean that all musicians are fond of mathematics. I found a letter posted on the web written by a fourteen-year-old overachiever to a mathematics professor. The student expresses his fraustration that even though he is an excellent musician, math is one of his weakest subjects. In math, he is not making the grades that he needs to stay in a certain prestigious academic program (4).
This letter seems to suggest that listening to music, or being able to master a musical instrument does not automatically guarantee that one can perform well in math. In other words, there are many musicians who are good in music but not in math. Music is a lot more than notes conforming to mathematical patterns and formulas. Music is exhilarating because of the intricacies of the patterns that occurs. Whether or not these patterns resemble math has no relevance to many musicians. More often than not, musicians are inclined to practice music because of the wonders and awe that they feel for music even if they are not aware of the math that is in music.

Comments made prior to 2007
Are you basing your conclusion on a letter written by a fourteen year old student? If someone has low math skills there are many factors that could lead to that. There aren't any studies that I've seen stating that the study of music will raise math scores or create a situation where a student will excel in mathematics. The studies will show that the study of music will enhance the brain function and thought processes involved in mathematics and scientific thinking. A result COULD be increases functionality in mathematics. Whether a student is aware of this or not is irrelevant. A student doesn't have to be aware of learning for learning to take place ...

correlation between music and math
I'm pretty good at math, although not higher math. Didn't study that.
I play music strictly by ear - I don't read standard notation. I play piano, organ, elec an acoustic guitar, and bass guitar. Been playing for over 50 years. I understand the basics, such as key, minors, sevenths, etc., intervals, time, sharps and flats, and such. Enough to be barely conversant with other musicians. I'm really more of a, "I can't tell you, but I can show you," kind of guy.
Yet, my brain understands that there is a relationship between music and math. At the very least, it understands repeating patterns.
I do not understand how I know how to play the complex music I am able to play. As I'm learning a piece, my ears hear the correct intervals between notes that form both the chords and the melodies, with heavy emphasis on the function of the bass line. I am able to work with closely voiced harmonies and with widely spaced voicings, with the ability to determine when to use those spacings. I have recently (within the last 10 years) started incorporating more dissonance, much to the enrichment of the songs.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is that music and math are very much related. In my case, the basic musical ability was there at a early age, and a fair understanding of math seems to have enabled me to grow my understanding of music. That, in turn, has allowed me to expand my music vocabulary. It's something I understand, but - like music - I find difficult to explain.
Math is very boring sunject without music
Bad math and music
I really suck at both maths and music. Although I was forced to learn an instument, I still hate all those pitches and beats or whatsoever. I just get a headache when I see all those black notes. However I kind of believe there is some relationship between maths and music, because all the piano players in my class get good grades in maths.
Thank You.
I am a musician and songwriter and This really helped widen my knowledge in mathematical aspects in music. Thanks for sharing!
luv ya
Thanks so much this helped me a lot luv u ( ; ( ;
What is the purpose if there is no connection to be made
Honestly I hate math. But, no matter where I go many people expect me to be an amazing mathematician because I play two instruments. I am not very good at math and have been playing for years so if this study is true than it is only plausible for certain groups of people. Many people have said that there does not have to be a connection for a student to begin to excel at math but that is not true in many people's cases. If a person does not understand a connection then they cannot learn from the other thing like Mozart and math. Many people agree with me ad say that there may be some things affected but not as much as researchers think. They seem to think that all humans are the same, if they truly wanted to make a completely plausible statement they would take into account age, grade, time spent doing each, and opinion towards each subject. They must have studies with percentages or fractions instead of saying it helps all people because that is not true.
Hope people agree with me.
only two instruments? i play
only two instruments? i play 6
Really? Not the point of the discussion.
No. Sight reading makes you better at math. The sound is not important, but rather the analysis of the notes. Because the notes are all the same, unlike the alphabet, the skill is not necessarily 'reading' but a mathematical deciphering of spaces. I can play difficult pieces by Liszt and Chopin well if I've heard them before, but I'll get disoriented sight reading a simple nocturne. I am also horribly bad at math. Even basic addition and subtraction was difficult to grasp for me. im not trying to have a pity party here its just the honest truth. i would like to believe sight reading music can challenge the mathematical function of your brain and build that skill. Much like your writing, grammar, and vocabulary influence interpretation.
As a pre-service music educator looking for a research topic I was sorely disappointed in this paper. Not only is it poorly written, but the sources are questionable and scarce. I truly believe that music can be used like any neuroplasticity exercise to increase aptitude and this article gives it a bad name. There are too many quack researchers out there making ridiculous correlations between just listening to music and magically having better concentration/higher math scores/faster reading levels/etc. Hopefully some readers (though based on the comments I don't know why I'm bothering saying this) will consider some more reliable evidence for using music as a means of increasing basic pattern-recognition skills, among others, before giving up on the subject.
Music & Math
I found this article very interesting. I don't know much about statistics, but I do know that when I play Handl with my math learning centers and use it as a background music while they are exercising visual skills and using my multisensory approach to
learning process steps, they (adults and kids) are having fun. My scores on the GED Math test for adults I work with have gone up. Proof is in the pudding for me.
Hello! I'm new here, so just saying hi :)
I really like your forum here. So I decided to be a part of it :)
And here I am saying HELLO EVERYBODY!! :D
At Last!
Finally--an explanation for why so few musicians are good at balancing their checkbooks!
Mathe and Music
I am going to findout relation between math and music but I still coulldnot get exactly point.
can maths music help students to learn
yes it can help students
I will ask my students in college to conduct study on this case. Thanks for posting. Hope to receive more materials from this website.
Do you wanna talk? I do! I`m at . I`ve taken algebra, geometry+trig, pre-calc, I also read a book by H. Jacobowitz called Computer Arithmetic, it contains 5 rules for formulating a system of positional notation. It really epiphany-ically enlightened me: The hindu-arabic number representation we use expressed as a polynomial, a better understanding of synthetic division, good coffee, plenty of Led Zeppelin and I`m well on my way to solving the n vrs. np conjecture, the other Millenium Prize probs, unifying the strong nuclear/electro-weak/gravitational forces in an efficient equation...well maybe the coffee was too strong. Rhythm, pitch expressed as frequency, tempo, cadence,verbal-literal and mathematical language, ST &LA reasoning, now that`s an awesome unified field theory!! I love it !!! And I love you too!! contact me if you`d like. Have a Blessed day!!
From what I can see, your
From what I can see, your writing skills are lacking.
languages, verbal/literal, math, music
I read your post and all I could understand was Led Zeppelin. And I love you. And Have a Blessed day. lol hysterical.
The Music and Math code
There is most definitely a pattern identity and a reason why there are 88 keys on the piano. Its very simple. I've seen it on the 88 logic DVD sponsored by Yamaha.
The reason for the 88 keys is based on the division of the 52 white keys and the 36 black keys into the 7 octaves show the reserve keys at the bottom of the keyboard. Adding of these reserve keys and applying them as leverage on top of the 13 keys per octave creates the 16 keys needed to identify the reason for the 88 keys as the countable ratio which shows how to play the piano.
This is further proved by the division of the 88 keys into 4 quarters and using those key placements as a direction to find the reserve keys by placing them into one octave, or the top octave. Either way, you find the ratio. Then you can understand true piano flow to finding (going with the grain) the major influence keys and the minor (going against the grain). It's that simple. For more info read my blog stephenrmackay.wordpress.com or go to www.pianodiy.com.au. It's all there in plain english, book and DVD form for those who learn kinesthetically.

We have a responsibility to educate our youth and the desire to do it through music!
Hi, im a graduate school student working on my research title proposal. i was inspired by your article and i have in fact proposed a research title about music integration in the study of chemistry... i noticed that my students learn better when i introduce science concepts through a song or when they work on composing a song with a melody to generalize, summarize or synthesize the things that they have learned.
however, i am still processing this idea and trying to gain more information/ resources to support my proposal.
can anybody help me? please...
music and brain
Music has been used since ancient times to calm the nerves, reduce stress etc.
Knowing now the effect of music on sequential reasoning, one wonders why there is no emphasis on music education, starting from elementary schools.
Won't that be a cost effective investment?
Now that there is a cry about the shortages of engineers and mathematicians, this seems like a smart strategy for securing the future while at the same time enhancing brain health.
Unfortunately, less and less children are exposed to music nowadays because of lack of funds.
The only exceptions are those whose parents can afford private lessons
Bravo to you. I do agree with you in all levels. Im a medical physician doing a neurology residency in Philadelphia. Music does help you increase your math skills. Reading this article took me years back when i was in high school, I used to practiced calculus and trigonometry listening to music, but not classic though, very loud high beat kind of music. IT helps me concentrate, silence doesnt do it for me, is kind of distracting actually. With music, i create my own universe; Pascal said that we enjoy music because it causes us to count without our knowing it, that is true.. Most people find it distracting, and actually it is not at all... cause Even if we aren't paying close attention, our brain counts each note and change of rhythm. This counting occupies the part of the mind that hinders our creative abilities. Like a soothing lullaby, music puts the worrisome unfocused part of the mind to sleep so the productive side can get to work.
pascal didnt say that lol. is
pascal didnt say that lol. is was gottfried leibniz. if pascal did say that it was a rip off haha
where are the statistical data?
I stumbled upon this article, and I wanted to see if I statistically figure out how much of a difference music makes.
Were the samples randomly chosen? It would have to be matched pairs...with vs. without the music...because people already work differently. It would have had to be a Paired T-Test or Interval...What was your confidence interval? Did your conditions check out for Independence and Normality for the mean of differences between with and without by matched pairs? What was your sample size? Where are the data?

Music and mathematical relation.
I saw many articles related to :music and mathematics: relation,but what i have done not came in review.
I developed the rule of chords generation,which (100%)match with the theory.
Any organization or institutions if wants to develop further please contact.

music and math
I was getting so frustrated with trying to help my 6 year old daughter learn math. She has some problems with comprehension. I hadn't even thought about using music to help her learn math until tonight. I saw her sitting in a chair reading and listening to a book. It was a book that had a CD with it. Anyway, it then dawned on me that if something like a CD of someone reading the book she had in front of her captured her attention, I wonder if playing music that she likes might be able to help when she was doing math?
So I tried it. It helped out enormously. We were laughing and having fun working on math. It kept the stress level down. It kept her focused on the main task of doing the math, which was the main problem I was having.
She usually has a very hard time being interested in doing math because she would get easily distracted by almost anything. She actually seemed to understand things better by the end of our musical math session. Going to try it out again tomorrow and see what happens.
I am excited to see if this will work again or if it was just a fluke.
tese de mestrado
Estou escrevendo minha tese sobre a música e matemática.Seus beneficos,como a música facilita o aprendizado e a dinamica das aulas de matematica.No entanto minha banca argumenta que não possui fundamentação cientifica que respalde minha tese.Gostaria de pedir ajuda neste sentido.O que posso fazer para que minha tese seja aceita,grata Kátia
Music and Math... My 2 fav things!
I am in advanced choir and math and I loved researching this subject!
Advice Needed
hi...i hv my science fair in da coming week..i want to present this topic...can u please tell me ASAP dat how did u perform tis..or how did u present tis project in your fair ???
YES!!!! this gives me a reason to listen to my music or at least tell my math teacher she should make a play list. I mean my science teacher has already and she plays it its not even old boring songs LOL
I am doing some similar research with the correlation between music and math. I liked your article and was wondering if I could get in touch with you and further discuss the issue. My email is or if anyone else has any insight on the topic it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much
Need Help! Please reply
so im doing this science fair on "are there mathematical patterns in music?" (copyright). i read this article and i did help me a bit into this topic. but my question is that how can you test or find out if there truly are mathematical patterns in music. i read lots of articles on the net, but it all seems so confusing with all those fractions and sort. i could just answer my question in simple language i would gratefully appreciate it. by the way im in grade 8 but id like my science fair to make it to nationals this year. so if you can please reply back.
Music helps me
Music helps me concentrate,keeps me focused and helps me alot...I prefer instrumental music it doesnt have to be classical or mozart, it could just be something by antonio pinto, or Hans Zimmer(The man behind the batman begins/Dark knight soundtrack)infact Im listening to it right now as I study math.
i tried an experiment
I was doing a science fair project and i made two grade 5 students listen to music and do some multiplication and division but it turns out it never worked because the two kids did not get good grades. So I agree with this article.
i think music does improve
i think music does improve your math skills because when i was younger all i listened to was jazz and classical music. Now i'm in honors math and i love math. My sister didn't listen to any type of music when she was little and now i always have to help her.
this article is a big help!I'll be needing this kind for my thesis!
Thanks this helped alot on my project. I did not know that music can help with math..."back to the Ipod". Thanks again!
Smooth Jazz
Smooth Jazz also has a calming effect on me and I believe it helps me study... are there any studies done on the effects of Smooth Jazz and studying?
I have done a paper on music
I have done a paper on music effect on brain my junior year, a science experiment my freshmen year, and a am currently doing research for a persasuive speech this year. my freshmen year in college. i have experiment on myself for the past couple of weeks. i will have to say, listening to classical (specificly baroque) has help me not only in math, but also in my bib lit class, english class and studying. it, like said in so many books and website, has helped me to become calm and relax. classical music was specificly created to get the brain working. it's all about the 60 beat per minuite beat pattern. that isn't in your online paper, and honestly, this is a semi-poorly written paper.
I have done a comment on "I have done a paper on music"
I have done a comment on "I have done a paper on music" my junior year, a science experiment in 4th grade, and a am currently doing research for a persasuive[persuasive] comment right now. I am not sure what this comment was trying to say. It did not offer any encouraging advise nor could I find it in anyway beneficial to the author of the paper or any of its online readers. It states some information but few logical claims toward the paper it comments. It attempts to gain credibility through stating assignments the author participated in yet avoids the name of their college. There is no sense of citation toward how they knew why "classical music was specifically created". In addition, how do they know what "it's all about"? I can assume some connection to time (60bpm equals 1 second), but I find not even the closest sense of research or credibility from this limited comment, although I would be interested to read any findings that support this claim. Punctuation is also confusing throughout (i.e. commas v. periods and Capitalization). Although I may be arrogant to the fact that possibly this person does not posses English as their native tongue or lost their pinkies in a freak accident. Nonetheless the commenter remains anonymous and I remain Anony-mouse, "and honestly, this is a semi-poorly written [comment]"
I am replying to "I have done a comment on 'I have done a...'"
I totaly agree with you Anony-mouse, that comment did not help anyone: the author, is readers, and who ever else needed it. Classical music WAS NOT designed for a better education: When classical music was created, education wasn't very important. "Classical music" was originaly created when Louis Armstrong played trumpet. His time is long gone, and we have hence moved forward. All music orginated from Africa and slowly changed to classical music when it was brought to The Americas. Louis Armstrong was the "creator" of blues*. He took "classical music" and twisted it his own way and then it was later known as blues. After that, Jazz was created from blues, along with swing. Thhen Elvis Presely came along and created Rock, and that turned into countrie, hip-hop. Hip-hop then turned into rap, and somehow alternative music came along. Classical music was created to entertain, not to educate. The likes of yourself (anonymous) makes me angry: don't post a comment about an article you know nothing about, and by the way, this an 8th grader.
no offence, but i dont think
no offence, but i dont think you are quite right either. classical music started waaaay before Louis Armstrong. The dates of the Classical Period in Western music are generally accepted as being between about 1750 and 1830. i think you were refering more to what we know as "classics" classical music features such composers as Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert, Bach and Salieri. Louis Armstrong also was not the inventor of jazz. he was highly influencial in the transformation of jazz and blues but was not the creator.
why does classical music
why does classical music make math scores better?
I can tell you I learned to play and read music for percussion instruments in the 7th grade. I am not a mathematical genious, but I can tell you 2-3 years after getting into music I began doing very well in my math classes. I have heard it all my life and now I have lived it; playing/listening to music helps mathematical skills. I guess it opens something in the brain that helps make the connections needed to grasp the math concepts.

Emphysema causes the alveolar walls to lose their elasticity. This causes small pockets of dead air to remain in the lungs and makes it difficult to exhale air from the lungs. Most emphysema cases are caused by smoking, but about 3 percent of cases are caused by an inherited deficiency in a protein that normally protects the alveoli. This protein is alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT). In emphysema caused by AAT deficiency, the small airways that lead to the alveoli also become damaged.
In the normal lung, chemicals called proteases are produced by the body's immune system to protect the lungs from infection. Two types of proteases are elastase and trypsin. If the concentration of proteases in the lungs is too great, they can attack healthy lung tissue, destroying elastin, a substance necessary to maintain the elasticity, or flexibility, of the alveoli. AAT neutralizes the proteases, the most important being elastase, and protects the elastin.
AAT is produced by the liver and released into the bloodstream.
In people with AAT deficiency, elastase attacks the walls of the alveoli, causing irreversible damage. If allowed to progress, lung tissue continues to be destroyed, and eventually fatal emphysema develops.
The first signs of AAT deficiency often appear between the ages of 20 and 40. The early symptoms are usually shortness of breath, wheezing following activity, and a decreased ability to exercise.
As the disease becomes severe, both emphysema from AAT deficiency and from smoking look very much the same. Both lead to low levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide retention.
If a patient with chronic obstructive airways disease responds well to bronchodilators, health care providers say they have an "asthmatic component" to their disease. Patients with AAT deficiency-related emphysema respond to bronchodilators, and they are often relatively young when they see a doctor about their symptoms, so they are often diagnosed with asthma.
Diagnosis of AAT deficiency is suspected when emphysema develops at a young age and in a person with a family history of lung disease at a young age. A simple breathing test that measures how forcefully a person exhales can help make the diagnosis. Testing for AAT deficiency includes measuring the amount of AAT in the blood and testing for genes linked to AAT deficiency.
Once AAT deficiency is diagnosed, treatment will require weekly intravenous infusions of the proteins, which come from human plasma donors.
Replacement therapy is not entirely effective in all cases. For those people, lung transplants offer hope. Approximately one fourth of all lung transplants are in adults with AAT deficiency.
Patients also go through pulmonary rehabilitation. During pulmonary rehabilitation, they will learn different techniques of clearing sputum, the proper use of medications, and how specific exercises geared towards more efficient use of oxygen.
In the most common type of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, a person inherits one Z gene from each parent.

SUP Essentials – 5 Must Have Stand Up Paddle Accessories
Stand Up Paddling is one of the fastest growing beach activities in recent memory. It's fun, it's easy and it gets you out there even when the wave machine shuts off entirely (ie. our whole last month in SoCal!) Since summer is in full swing and people are hitting up their local bodies of water with boards and paddles in hand, I thought I'd let you folks in on some crucial SUP accessories that I have personally scoped out. Here's my list of the 5 best SUP accessories for this season:
Be prepared for the worst with the SUP survival PFD (personal floatation device). This bugger inflates with a rip cord and CO2 cartridge just like those fancy ones on the airplane. Besides giving you some added security, it also includes a zip pocket for securely stashing your keys, fishing license, sunscreen or shades.
In certain harbors or beaches, the water patrol will require you to carry a PFD anyways so why not cover all your bases with this compact lifesaving device. Otherwise you can lug around a heavy foam jacket or risk getting a ticket.
During extended sweeping sessions your feet are sure take a thrashing. Pruney, sunburnt feet are standard, and when you add rocks, urchins or coral in the mix it's never good for your lower digits.
The Xcel 1mm split toe boots give the most sensitive of feet full protection without being overly cumbersome. They are lightweight, breath well and help you stick to your board. Shoots!
The Quiksilver Waterman Poly Pro zip Paddle jacket is perfect for all types of Paddling. The cut is slightly looser with a crew neck so it's breathable and non-constricting. A full zipper at front allows you to zip it down when it gets hot, or zip it up when the onshores start blowing.
This jacket is made from a water wicking, poly pro material that blocks out both harmful UV rays and chilly ocean breezes. Like a lot of the Waterman line the Zip Paddle Jacket also includes a handy utility pocket at back perfect for sunscreen, ipod , ham sandwich or anything else you need to keep closeby.
The FCS SUP leash is the only stand up paddle leash that combines elements of both a standard leash and a coiled SUP leash. Unlike other leashes out there the FCS SUP leash features a non-coiled end that extends over your board. This means less tangles and no more tripping over a bunched up leash end close to your feet.
It comes in ankle and calf versions depending on your preference.
Whether you are surfing your stand up or taking it on a marathon paddle, the Dakine traction will keep you glued to your board and feel great under your feet.
The specially formulated EVA won't add a bunch of weight to your board and will help absorb the shocks caused by rough seas and choppy waters. A lot like the cushions in your shoes, the Dakine deck pad will offer a more comfortable ride especially for extended sessionss

Poler – The Nap Sack: A Sleeping Bag Jacket
Take your girlfriend's snuggie, cut off the sleeves, man it up a bit and you've got yourself the Nap Sack from Poler.
This part sleeping bag, part puff jacket hoodie serves as both an apparel accessory and an impromptu sleeping ararngement. Friends will be jealous, significant others will be bummed, but you will be nice and cozy when-and-wherever you decide to pass out.
Here's how it works:
Roll up the bottom, zip open the arm holes and you've got yourself a super warm and comfy puff hoodie complete with a front zipper and ipod compatible chest pocket. Use it as a changing robe or use is as a couch/campfire companion!
When you are tired, pull in your extremities, zip/cinch yourself up and voila! You're snug as a bug down to 50 ° F. No more climbing out of your sleeping bag to check the surf or losing your warmth when nature calls!
When not in use, the Nap Sack rolls up into a convenient little bag that stores easily in your truck or pack making it a crucial item for the space-conscious wanderer. Take it with you backpacking or keep it close by when couch-surfing.

November 27, 2014
BANGKOK (AP) - Police say six tourists, including two Russians and a Chinese, were killed when an overcrowded ferry sank in eastern Thailand.
Police Col. Suwan Cheawnavinthavat says about 200 Thai and foreign tourists were on a double-decker ferry that left Lan island for the 30-minute trip to the resort town of Pattaya on Sunday. Soon after the boat departed, an engine problem sent the tourists rushing to the second floor, causing the ferry to flip on its side and eventually sink.
Suwan says three Thais also drowned. The rest of the passengers were rescued, including a 9-year-old Russian boy who was in intensive care at a hospital. None of the others were hospitalized.
Suwan says the ferry was operating over its capacity.
Pattaya is about 100 kilometers (60 miles) southeast of Bangkok.

Rate Dr. Robert M. Jensen
Dr. Robert M. Jensen's Ratings
Dr. Jensen and staff, my experience very caring staff, they made me feel comfortable, and Dr. Jensen confident, warm, yet very professional. Sometimes they run late because patients run late, ask questions they have a need to know many things, Dr. Jensen takes the time to answer.

my first time with surgery am very pleased great doctor and staff i would recomend dr.Jensen to anyone

From the moment I called to inquire about getting a mastopexy/augment to my consultation, all the way through surgery and recovery I have been blown away by the level of service I was provided! Once I had my consultation with Dr. Jensen I knew he was the man for the job. The consultation was probably 90% spent with him (not his staff) and he made me feel very comfortable. When it came time for my pre-op appointment Jodi the RN explained everything in detail and I could see that she truly cared about me as a patient. Then came surgery day, I was treated with such importance all the way from beginning to end. Now for the results themselves, I could have never dreamed that after breastfeeding two precious baby boys that my breasts could ever look the same again! I am blown away by the results…..I LOVE my new breasts and I have him to thank for giving me back what I thought was impossible!! I could go on and on but to sum up my feelings, Dr. Jensen is a miracle worker in my book! XO

Had breast augment done a few years ago and couldn't be happier. I plan on having more procedures done in the future. He's a perfectionist and an artist. Couldn't be happier!

I went in for what should have been a minor procedure, ended up being "sold" a facelift. After 6 mos my ear is still very painful, two things I really wanted him to accomplish didn't even come close. His staff needs to be on the same page, you can ask each of them the same question and get a different answer. I would not take my dog to them for a nail trim let alone anything else. He is personable and friendly, and incredibly incompetent. RUN, don't walk, and RUN FAST and FAR to any other cosmetic surgeon. And be sure to have your wallet open, the horribly nasty lady who takes your money would probably take the gold out of your teeth if you have any. RUN!!!!!

When I was in sixth grade, my mom booked me with Jensen to have a mole below my right nostril removed. It looked like a blemish, and although I'd had it for several years, I was finally old enough to be embarrassed by it. She was clear with Jensen that she had chosen a plastic surgeon instead of our family dermatologist -- who had examined the mole and could have removed it for a reasonable fee -- because my mother wanted absolutely no scarring on my face. The day of the procedure, Jensen chose to excise the mole deeply by its root, requiring four stitches. Not only did the hack-job removal leave a visible scar (fingernail-length) that I still have over a decade later and which contorts my naso-labial fold when I smile, but Jensen's stitches caused me to develop permanent facial asymmetry -- he hoisted my upper lip on the right side higher than the left and it healed that way. I am only now considering reconstructive measures to undo the damage he did to my face. DON'T USE HIM.

I have had several procedures done by Dr. Jensen over the last couple of years and I am very happy with Dr. Jensen and all the girls in the office. He is very talented. Him and his staff have taken very good care of me. I've never had to worry about anything, I know I am in good hands. I would and have recommended him to everyone I know who is looking for a plastic surgeon. I plan on having more work done and would not think of going anywhere else.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][595821].votes_count ]]
I didn't find out until later that other doctors were much more competent than Jensen. Instead of the minor procedure I wanted, he advised a more intrusive and more expensive approach. I was uncomfortable for several days, and thrilled only about walking out of that office for the last time. I would never go back or trust him to care for someone I loved.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][595825].votes_count ]]
I have now had 3 different procedures with Dr. Jensen and I could not be more pleased. He did a fabulous job on all the procedures! The results are natural and fresh looking! Dr Jensen and his nurses have been so kind and caring through each procedure. I even received a personal phone call from Dr. Jensen the evening after my procedure to check up on me! Office help could be more friendly at times but I am there for the results I continue to receive from Dr Jensen's work.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][595820].votes_count ]]
Staff was the worst, especially courtney! Very disappointed with the treatment, care, as well as end result! Dr jensen left the country for 3 weeks the day after my massive procedure leaving me in the care of his incompetent NP wich resulted in separated incisions and ugly scars! What a wait of money!

Other Factors
where L is the column length (in millimeters) and d
p is the particle diameter (in micrometers). The present column is a 250 mm × 4.6 mm column packed with 5-μm particles, so
the predicted value of N ≈ 15,000. If the measured value of N is within about 20% of this predicted value, the column is in good condition. So, although the column was new, the plate
number is at the low end of its expected performance range. In the present case, we'll see in a moment that the retention
factor is quite small, which makes the peaks more susceptible to extracolumn band broadening because of injection problems
or extracolumn volume. We suspect that this is the reason for the lower-than-expected plate number in the present example.
Retention Factor
where L is the length of the column (in millimeters) and V
M is in milliliters. Therefore, in the present case V
M ≈ 2.5 mL. Convert to t
0 by dividing by the flow rate: t
0 = 2.5 mL/0.6 mL/min = 4.2 min. The estimate should be within ˜≈ 10% of the observed value, so the observed t
0 = 4.0 min is reasonable.
Now we can calculate k = (6.2 – 4.0)/4.0 = 0.6. This is much less than even the minimum desired k = 1. Does this mean that the method is bad or that a bad method was approved and included in the USP? Not necessarily; let's look further.

US Marie Claire took "ladies who lunch" one step further, playing host to a Hollywood dinner that pulled in quite the A-list set. Dressed in one of the chicest wrap skirt iterations we've seen in a while, Zoe Saldana wore a look from Bottega Veneta's Resort '13 collection, pairing it with Yves Saint Laurent pumps. This has "office sophisticate" written all over it. Also in the mix? A print-clad Elizabeth Olsen, Lea Michele in a non thigh-high slit ensemble (and we're loving it!), and a ruffled-up Olivia Munn.

Recycling delight for charities; EDGBASTON.
And an Edgbaston charity is reaping the benefits.
Nearly 800 tonnes of paper was collected from January 7 to 11 from collection points across the city.
Ian Coghill, director of environmental services, said: "In January last year the residents of Birmingham recycled 2,500 tonnes of glass and paper through their kerbside boxes and the banks around the city.
"At this rate we are well on target to not only exceed, but smash last January's figure."
He said it was great news for the Lord Mayor's nominated charities which are Birmingham Scout and Guide Association, Edward's Trust in Edgbaston and St Mary's Hospice, Selly Oak.
All will receive a donation from Smurfit Kappa Recycling and Glass Recycling UK.
He said: "The people of Birmingham always rise to a challenge and they have certainly proved their commitment to recycling.
"We are also grateful to the crews, who are working hard to make sure the extra recycling is picked up as quickly and efficiently as possible."

May 20 — The Puerto Rican Maritime Transport Authority isn't entitled to reduction of a $95,750 back pay award granted by a jury to a female employee who alleged that she didn't receive a promotion because of her sex, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit ruled May 16.
Affirming a trial court's denial of remittitur to Autoridad de Transporte Maritime y la Islas Municipio (MTA), the First Circuit found that the authority failed to show that damages to Laura Climent-Garcia should be limited in duration based on the 14-month period in which the male worker selected for promotion allegedly held the interim position.
Nothing in the evidentiary record showed that the position "had a predetermined end date," and witness testimony indicated that its duration "may be indefinite or undetermined," the court said.
In addition, the court rejected the MTA's argument that the jury award failed to properly offset overtime pay received by Climent-Garcia. The authority presented only "scant evidence" of any overtime wages paid to Climent-Garcia, such that it "cannot say that no rational jury could have calculated Climent's damages without offsetting overtime," the court said.
Judge Juan R. Torruella wrote the opinion, joined by Judges Sandra L. Lynch and Kermit V. Lipez.
According to the court, Climent-Garcia worked as an operations supervisor at an MTA ferry terminal in Fajardo, Puerto Rico.
In July 2007, the authority's human resources director recommended Climent-Garcia for an interim maritime transport administrator position at a terminal in San Juan, Puerto Rico. However, Juan Cirino-Martinez, the MTA's executive director, allegedly expressed skepticism about selecting Climent-Garcia because her "childcare responsibilities would make commuting from Fajardo to San Juan for work inappropriate," the court recounted.
Climent-Garcia overheard the conversation, expressed interest in the position and insisted that she would make appropriate child-care arrangements. Cirino-Martinez purportedly responded that only males staffed the San Juan terminal and that he'd already selected a male, Stanley Mulero, for the position.
Climent-Garcia sued for sex discrimination under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and Puerto Rico law. Her claim went to the jury, which awarded her $50,000 in compensatory damages and $97,750 in back pay, ultimately doubling the award to $291,500 pursuant to Puerto Rico law. The U.S. District Court for the District of Puerto Rico denied the MTA's attempt to reduce the back pay award.
On appeal, the MTA argued that Climent-Garcia should be eligible for only 14 months of back pay, corresponding with the time period in which Mulero held the administrator position.
Disagreeing, the First Circuit pointed out that the MTA "significantly mischaracterize[d]" testimony from Mulero in which he discussed receiving a merit raise after 14 months, and that testimony from other officials indicated that the "duration of an interim post may be indefinite or undetermined."
The authority presented only "scant evidence" of any overtime wages paid to Climent-Garcia, such that it "cannot say that no rational jury could have calculated Climent's damages without offsetting overtime," the First Circuit said.
Although Mulero eventually left the position, the MTA offered no evidence on when he departed and whether it coincided with the end of the interim post, the court said.
As such, a jury had no evidence to determine that if Climent-Garcia had received the promotion, she would have ended her tenure on the same date as Mulero or couldn't have served in the position until trial.
The appeals court also found no merit in the MTA's contention that the jury failed to offset Climent-Garcia's overtime pay. The court said the MTA, among other things, offered no "extrinsic evidence in the form of pay stubs or records to support its calculations."
"This scant evidence cannot carry the day," the court said.
Puerto Rico Legal Advocates represented the MTA. Guerrero-Calderon & Irizarry-Cuebas represented Climent-Garcia.

Cincinnati gas prices jumping to $4
Don't Waste Your Money
The day Tri-State drivers feared is finally here: Cincinnati area gas prices are jumping to $4 a gallon, for the first time in 2014.
Technically, it's just $3.99, an increase over last week's $3.89 price. But when you add in the .09 cents in the fine print, that makes it $4.
We last saw prices this high in June of 2013.
GasBuddy.com reports that Speedway stations, as usual, are leading the increase. Prices jumped at Northern Kentucky and Indiana Speedways on Wednesday, and are going up in Ohio on Thursday.
Why the Jump?
Several reasons are behind this:
-Oil prices are now at $104 a barrel.
-Stations are now required to sell more expensive summer blended gas, which produces less smog.
-We have entered peak driving season, with peak demand for gas.
The Government and AAA predict that prices should peak this week, and begin to fall the second week in June, barring any major world events.

This is a somber Halloween for the Bowling Green Police Dept.
Today marks the one-year anniversary of the death of their first officer to die in the line of duty.
Master Police Officer David Whitson was accidentally shot by another policeman when he and two other officers were responding to a call.
Police from around the Commonwealth and nearby states attended his funeral to pay their respects.
Bowling Green Police Chief Doug Hawkins says Whitson was someone who could find humor in all situations and was a man everyone liked.

NEW YORK (AP) -- The stock market looks set to close out a turbulent week with solid gains. The S&P 500 added 12 points to start today's trading and remains more than five points higher. The Dow has been as much as 115 points higher, but the Nasdaq has dropped into negative territory.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The president of the Federal Reserve's Minneapolis bank says the Fed should keep its key interest rate at a record low until unemployment falls below 5.5 percent. Narayana Kocherlakota (nayr-ah-YAH'-nah kohch-ur-lah-KOH'-tah) was the lone dissenter on this week's policy decision. The Fed's policy statement dropped any reference to a specific unemployment rate that might lead the Fed to eventually to raise short-term rates. Kocherlakota says that will foster uncertainty.
MOSCOW (AP) -- Russian stocks are down about 2 percent today as another credit rating agency put the country on notice of a possible downgrade and Visa and MasterCard stopped serving two Russian banks. Russia's economic outlook is suffering after the country moved to annex Crimea this week, prompting the U.S. and other European nations to impose sanctions. The Russian stock market has lost than more 10 percent this month.
UNDATED (AP) -- Fitch Ratings has concluded a review of the United States' credit rating and affirmed that it deserves the highest rating. The credit rating firm started the review in October amid another debt-ceiling crisis, warning it might downgrade the U.S. debt rating. However, Fitch says the U.S. rating remains at "AAA" and the Washington drama over the nation's borrowing limit does not appear to have affected the country's ability to borrow. Fitch also notes that U.S. deficits are expected to fall.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- WellPoint shares have been trading above its all-time high today, after the nation's second largest health insurer raised its 2014 earnings forecast. WellPoint had said in January that it expected earnings to be greater than $8 per share. It's upped that by 20 cents. Analysts are forecasting even better. WellPoint is selling coverage on several state-based health insurance exchanges created by the health care overhaul.

A roast-beef sandwich operation poised to open (maybe today) in the old Birdies fried-chicken space is the brainchild of Artichokes Francis Garcia and Sal Basille (plus an unaffiliated friend), and joins their nascent pizza-and-zeppole East Village empire. This Little Piggy Had Roast Beef brings to the neighborhood Artichokes trademark nostalgia, but no little piggies (Everybodys doing pork, says Garcia). The featured attraction here is roast beef, and plenty of it. Sandwiches come This Way, in homage to Sheepshead Bays venerable Roll n Roaster, on a roll, au jus, with Cheez Whiz, or That Way, an Italian-American riff on half a hero loaf from Reliable Bakery, with onion, gravy, and fresh mozzarella. There will be housemade fries and milkshakes, too, plus a pastrami sandwich with cole slaw and mustard on rye. I cracked the code for Katzs Deli, says Garcia, who seems to be remaking New Yorks culinary institutions one by one.

This was a good story with many sub plots that don't take over the main story. I just wished it would have included the era -1800's- in the description.

Soil Lyrics - System of a Down
Review The Song (19)
The phoenix he helped create,
Out of control boy without a dad,
Shot the gun that startled my life,
While I drove him with a forty five.
Friends for years images in red,
Blew off his own motherfucking head,
Confidence, death, insecurity,
Men fall unrealized,
Unrealized, unrealized.
Making a decision of death,
While everyone around you pled,
Now you fly in peace,
I hope, my friend,
A man can't avoid what he's meant to do,
When he's meant to do it,
Even if he doesn't really want to,
My memories are of fun and friendship,
Of weakness within the strength of youth,
For reasons undefined, reasons undefined,
Reasons undefined, reasons undefined.
Friends for years images in red,
Blew off his own motherfucking head,
Confidence, death, insecurity,
Men fall unrealized,
Don't you realize,
Evil, lives in the motherfucking skin,
Don't you realize,
that-Evil, lives in the motherfucking skin,
Don't you, realize,that, evil,
Lives in the motherfucking skin,
Don't you, realize, that, evil,
Lives in the skin.
Don't you, realize, evil,
Lives in the motherfucking skin,
Don't you, realize , that evil,
Lives in the motherfucking skin.
Why the fuck did you take him away from us you motherfucker?

Skin deep evil | Reviewer: Jenny | 11/22/11
I betcha "Evil lives in the motherfucking skin" refers to evil being skin deep. Evil as in pain, suffering, what we label negative emotions.
Poor man didn't realize there's so much beauty in all of us once you dig a little deeper, and decided to end his life.
SOAD lyrics are often quite deep, despite what one might think when first hearing their music. Just listen to Aerials, that one's amazing. Go meditate and you'll recognize it.
Wow | Reviewer: MSunter | 1/18/11
It's dumbasses like that guy who called this song racist that make America the shithole that it is today. Anybody with any basic level of logic or common sense will figure out what this song is about. It's the idiots that call this song racist, that re-elect retards like Bush.
I completely agree... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/29/10
I totally agree with Fetti... The American government is retarded in most aspects, especially when it comes to foreign policy... but dont hold anything against the people, thats just stereotyping which negates the entire previous arguement about racism. And yes I am an American though not always proud to say it
Nobody will believe this so I dunno why I bother explaining. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/5/10
Evil lives in the skin refers to ancient philosophy, something the band sings a lot about. Believe me or not it is a reference to ones ID which according to ancient philosophy was engraved into all of our subconscious when we were genetically altered by aliens. They believe that he cannot avoid his fate of killing himself because he sided more internally with this evil side of genetics.
@MCCloskey | Reviewer: Andre | 6/23/10
You, sir, are ignorant or stupid. I'll give you benefit of the doubt here. Pay close attention, however, and you'll realize that only two parties are mention in this song. A friend and Serj himself (or Serj singing as a third party). I highly doubt that Serj would be calling his friend evil because of his sking color. What is actually being sung about is suicide and the effect it had on himself (Serj or third-person Serj).
Please do not spread ignorant sh*t around the internet just because you cannot understand what a VERY political and meaning driven band sings about.
Don't think it's racist | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/29/10
I think the line "evil lives in the skin" is meant to accent how close we all are to our most primal instincts...I believe also this song is about suicide and the neglectful attitude of many people towards depressed youths...definetly not a racist song...System is for the people...and against the facists....keep fighting the good fight SOAD!!!!!
Haha! Rascist?! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/21/09
You gotta be fucking kidding me, right? "Nazi pigs", according to this song? This song is about a friend that killed himself because of the "evil", possibly being guilt,that lived in his "skin", which would be inside of him. No rascism in SOAD pal, keep 'er moving.
Evil lives in you motherfucken skin | Reviewer: MEMO | 8/13/09
thers evil living inside all of our skins ... he fought the evil(demons) living in his skin but he lost (killed himself)the evil took him away..and when he says: why the fuck did you take him from us you motherfuker, hes talking about the devil
Blaaaah | Reviewer: Shakky | 6/8/09
People will always have their own views, ideas, connotations of this specific song. But if we can't share our interpetations in a civilised manner, it's better keeping your thoughts to yourself. But the guitar riffs and lyrics on this song is bloody awesome!!! I heart SOAD!
ahh you fuckin bloody german skin 'eds | Reviewer: james face | 12/18/08
haha racist oO i love you, good on you for pokin fun at ur own race. i sure could make a few points about us 'aussies' and our racially discriminative traits...
anyway, soad are not racists. far fucking from it.
serj - armenian, family refugee from the motherfucking genocide there a while ago. its ridiculous to think hed be anything but a racial activist.
how ever, i cannot explain why in a song about suicide they would put a racial parody (parody, as in what some people beleive and how ridiculous it is), but there you go, just goes to show how many issues SOAD are prepared to tackle in the one song.

A new era began this week at the University of Virginia, as Dave Koehn began his tenure as the Director of Broadcast this past Monday. Koehn takes the reigns as the Voice of the Cavaliers, and is educating himself with Charlottesville, Cavalier Fans, and opponents.
Koehn took some time to sit down with CBS19 on Wednesday afternoon, and talked about his move to Virginia. The Kansas graduate is excited to be working for an ACC school, and had nothing but good things to say about UVa. The facilities, especially John Paul Jones Arena, played a big part in his coming to Charlottesville, and he looks forward to football season.
The new voice will also get to experience places that he has always dreamed of. Koehn looks forward to traveling to places such as Duke and North Carolina for basketball, and also talked about the ACC football reputation.
Another thing Koehn touched on was the fans. He is impressed with how much Virginia fans know about history, and enjoys the Cavaliers' rivalry with Virginia Tech. He looks to bring energy and enthusiasm into homes and cars beginning in August.
Click on the above video link to hear Koehn talk about his new position.

Lance Armstrong to Be Stripped of Tour de France Victoriesby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Lance Armstrong will be banned from cycling and stripped of his seven Tour de France titles by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, the organization said in a stunning announcement last night.
The punishment stems from drug charges brought against the world famous cyclist that he is declining to fight.
"There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, 'Enough is enough.' For me, that time is now," Armstrong said in a statement sent to The Associated Press, referring to the USADA's investigation an "unconstitutional witch hunt."
After refusing to follow though with an arbitration process that could officially clear his name, Armstrong added:
"I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in winning my seven Tours since 1999. The toll this has taken on my family and my work for our foundation and on me leads me to where I am today -- finished with this nonsense."USADA believes that Armstrong starting taking banned substances in 1996, including the blood-booster EPO and steroids, as well as blood transfusions.
It maintains that blood samples taken from the athlete in 2009 and 2010 tested positive for "blood manipulation."
Says Travis Tygart, USADA's chief executive: "It is a sad day for all of us who love sport and athletes. It's a heartbreaking example of win at all costs overtaking the fair and safe option. There's no success in cheating to win."
A two-year federal criminal investigation into similar charges against Armstrong concluded in 2011 without any evidence to support the initial claims. Many, however, will believe that Armstrong's decision NOT to fight the latest allegations is an admission of guilt.
"I know who won those seven Tours, my teammates know who won those seven Tours, and everyone I competed against knows who won those seven Tours," said the cancer survivor.
Do YOU think he took performance enhancing drugs?
YIPPEE! I'm soo sick of them cheating it makes me SICK! He should be lucky he beat cancer but he's not gonna beat CHEATING!
Lance I guess all your bull has finally caught up with you. I know what I'm about to say happened many years ago, but WHAT YOU DID TO CHERYL CROW, they say pay backs are a bitch. You can't treat people like you did. CHERYL was sick at the time and you gave it the heave ho and that was not cool brother no way shape or form. So now deal with the problems you made for yourself, PERIOD
IT'S ABOUT TIME!!! There have already been 10 teammates that have confirmed his illegal doping. They should have banned him 2 years ago. I have the same cancer as him. The chemicals he uses are strictly for enhancing performace - NOT TREATING CANCER. He has been using the cancer to get a free pass on the illegal doping.
Thats just horrible. He passed the tests at the time of the races. Its not right that they want to go back and take them away. Hes a winner!
This is a shame...as a cancer survivor, I know how much effort this took for him to win those races. After cancer and the grueling treatments that deplete your natural energy, you sometimes need medication to restore balance. In my case, I needed a blood transfusion and needles everyday just to function. I am not aware of Lance's treatment plan but I do know he started from a very disvadvantaged start point. In my mind he will always be a Winner!
What a shame!!!
This is bullshit.....the "powers that be" kills me with "their" antics and tactics when wanting to wage war and continue these smear campaigns against ppl that dont conform to their bullcrap... quitting is the stellar thing to do when dealing with sick fucks....i wonder what the REAL story is behind this assasination of character.....sad....just sad..

Birthday wish list.Wednesday, August 17, 2011
I turn 29 in exactly one month. In my early 29 seemed so old. Not anymore. In fact, when I think about 30 my only thought is...bring. it. on.
If I can kick 29 off with a few fun + pretty things that would be lovely. Please note that other than the candles, votives + book, I do not actually expect to receive anything else off this list. Just a few fun things that I like. If anyone wants to send that handbag over that would be just fine.
What would you have at the top of your birthday list?
