Hey dudes - found some more properly circumcised cock to enjoy!!
Hey dudes - found some more properly circumcised cock to enjoy!!
a few more nicely cut dicks!!
Those who have their circumcision with a plastibell don't show any scars. Most others are cut using a clamp end up with a two toned shaft, upper light brown with the large area below have a natural color. My dad was circumcised free hand and has a half an inch scar just below the glans. His frenum is intact.

Correction on #55.
My dad was circumcised free hand and has a half inch scar just below the glans. I had the clamp. He corrected me about his father who was cut about 1910 when only about 10% of all infants were circumcised. He was well to do. They were the ones cut in those days.
It is too bad when anticirc persons who have their own ideas tend to ruin the good thoughts of procirc guys with the beautiful pictures of cirucmicised men who, like me, enjoy being cut.
My cock. Love the scar
People can like cut cocks! There really is no crime in that by itself.
Normal People do NOT like the idea of girls being circumcised against their will, and that logic can easily (and perhaps fairly) move to boys.
You can NEVER know what a baby boy will think when he is older, of having part of his sexual identity removed without his consent. So I completely agree 100% with the anti circ lobby, as they defend the rights of the kid so he can chose to be cut when he is an adult, which arguably is "hotter".
Wow, beautiful cock Wizrd4hed - delectable
I love it too! Wonderful!
These remind me of how much I like sucking on a perfectly cut cock.
found another hot dude with a dark scar line
i love this thread
Mine's not THAT visible........but it's there.......
Another dick with a more visible scar.......
I had my circumcision about 2 years ago and have developed a nice scar, most of the guys in here were cut as babies and the scars have faded and just left the deliniation lines its not that they were not done right they are just older scars.
I love cut cocks, scar or not. Thanks!
Cut and a PA too - wonderful!
another cut cock to admire
Have found some after pics of lars svenson showing his circumcusion scar
hope you like guys
before and after pics
Oh wow...wonder what inspired him to go get circumcised. He looked just fine before...
Maybe he's just in the 'circ looks better' arena. Which is perfectly fine by me.
email@example.com I'm hung, cut and have a dark n wide Gomco circumcision scar. I like adult circumcision scars too. Head space regarding scars and circumcision trumps all else. If you have the interest we can have some fun.
The third method used for infant circumcision is the foreceps guided method. The doctor first loosens the foreskin from the glans with a plastic probe. He then uses a 1st set of forceps to attach to the dorsal foreskin and fulls it as far from the baby's bodyas it will stretch. Then using a second set of foreceps he clamps the foreskin at an angle so that there will be a bit more skin left underneath to allow for the frenulum unless he has alread snipped it off. In any case the result is the V scar that appears on many guy's dicks. It is not a misplaces Gomco but rather the foreceps guided method that gives a man a V scar.
He performed live for the first time on Falcon's website about 5 May of this year showing off his new circumcised cock. He complained of pain when his foreskin was retractedto far or when the top man fucking, likely a too tight frenum and his doctor recommened a full circumcision but I think a frenectomy would have done the trick. I think though that adult circumcision and adult circ scars are HOT!
It just reminds me that there was an extra part that i'm missing out on..
I'm against circumcision!
Just Perfect
More Perfect Scars...
I was cut, local anthes, infront of 12 students trainee doctors! Always love the idea the male students had a good view of my balls, ass and pubes. To then visit a 22yr old male nurse to check my cock was healin and discuss when and how I can wank.
One visit I said can you check when I have an erection. He played it professionally, but he certainly handled me loads for check up.
Having bein cut, love it when rub it lubed up or havin my head against my boxers out and about!
Cool to get have a piss in front of inquistive guys havin a piss next to me too.
Two hot circs.
here is mine, was cut when I was a baby.
I liked this thread. Any more opinions on the best looking type of circumcision?
Hey, the second pic is me! #187
Thanks for saying it's a perfect scar. I go nuts when somebody looks at my dick and mentions that im circumcised.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A Southern California elementary school has gotten a surprise visitor - one with claws.
The Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/18vaaM7 ) says a mountain lion found its way onto the campus of Monte Vista Elementary in La Crescenta Wednesday morning - just three days into the new school year.
The cougar was spotted about 6 a.m. by a custodian near a staff parking lot. It apparently jumped a fence into bushes on the other side. The cat was gone by the time sheriff's deputies arrived.
The foothill community near Los Angeles is no stranger to wildlife but teachers and administrators passed out flyers to parents warning them about the sighting.

Cisco Systems (India) Pvt Ltd and Intel Technology India Pvt Ltd will soon be launching innovative digital healthcare education solutions for medical institutions. Both will work with independent software vendors (ISVs) to provide content for medical institutions.
The two companies would offer virtual classroom environment to medical students. R. Ravichandran, Director, Sales and World Ahead Programme (South Asia), Intel, told The Hindu on Friday that through the digital healthcare education model they would deploy IT infrastructure and network connectivity in medical colleges and para medical colleges.
Rajkumar Natarajan, Vice-President, Cisco, said his company had decided to help those institutions which had a low IT infrastructure to easily build up the IT capacity through this new initiative.
New technologies such as video conferencing, tele-presence and virtual class rooms would play a major role in medical education.
Mr. Natarajan said Cisco was also working with Ashok Leyland on a project — Intellect urbanisation-vehicle connected concept.
Under this programme, all the ambulances would be connected with the hospitals through wi-fi. This would enable the hospitals and the ambulances to work together on the requirement of the patients.
Mr. Ravichandran said the entire project would be taken up in a phased manner.

I've made this beer twice, and both times it turned out great. It's not quite to style with 3 lbs. of Munich Malt, but it gives it a good malty backbone.Malt Bill:

3 lb. Munich Malt
1 lb. 2-row

Ferment at 68 degrees F for 7 days
Secondary optional (I usually skip it for this beer)
any reason you skip the secondary?
I've found this beer clears pretty quickly, and so far everytime I've brewed it, it's gone straight to the keg where the yeast will crash out. When kegging, I leave it primary for about two weeks. If I were bottling it, I'd probably put it in secondary. It also turns around pretty quickly, it's quite good when it's young.

Does the IRS thing concern you?
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 05-19-2013 - 12:00pm
I keep reading this big thing about the IRS targeting certain groups and I have to admit I am very concerned about it. What would keep them from targetting individuals like you and me? I know how the media can completely blow things out of proportion so what do you think-Is the media making a bigger to-do over this than it should be or is it really that big of thing?
|Mon, 05-20-2013 - 11:36am
I am very concerned about it! What would keep them from targeting women's groups, gay groups, etc? I personally think that this notion that nothing illegal happened is a bunch of bologna.
|Wed, 05-22-2013 - 8:24am
I don't think the media is making to big a deal over the issue. I think it is a very serious thing that we need answers too. My main concern at this point is how much President Obama knew about it.
|Sun, 05-26-2013 - 2:37pm
The more I watch this thing, the more I am wondering just how big it could get. Maybe this isn't going to just blow over after a few days.
|Wed, 06-26-2013 - 5:28pm
I would hope that those in the IRS who are abusing the agency credit cards are held accountable, too.
In the Denver Post, it was stated that employees who had agency credit cards that were used to pay for porn reported these cards stolen, but that one of the employees had reported 5 agency credit cards stolen. I would have been so in trouble if I had lost one of my corporate credit cards, especially if I had bought porn with it. Why was this employee given 4 agency credit cards, much less a fifth one after proving that the employee couldn't well keep track of the card?

2013 Altoona Curve Season Recap and Top 10 Prospects
Altoona had an impressive group of prospects throughout the year, although they didn't start off with a good looking team. The breakouts of Andrew Lambo and Stolmy Pimentel, plus the mid-season promotions of Gregory Polanco, Alen Hanson, and Nick Kingham, turned the Altoona Curve into one of the most talented teams in the minors throughout the 2013 season. Below is a recap of the hitters and pitchers at the level, followed by...
Alex Dickerson Wins Two Awards and Celebrates With Four Hit Night
Before the game Sunday, Alex Dickerson was named as the Curve team MVP and as the Eastern League Rookie of the Year. In the first inning, Dickerson put an exclamation point on both awards as he hit a three-run home run to right field to highlight an eight-run inning for the Curve in a 8-3 victory over the Akron Aeros, the Cleveland Indians' AA affiliate. "He (Dickerson) put a good season together," Curve manager Carlos Garcia said....

In the spirit of this pugnacious presidential primary season, we proudly present a special Kitchen Sink Edition of the eighth annual Flapjack Flip-Off. "Anything Goes" is the theme this year, as our quartet of unwitting restaurant contestants will be permitted to sling apples, chocolate chips, flag lapel pins, or any other irrational, irresponsible ingredients into their pancakes — and let's see what sticks!
It should be noted that not everyone on the Flapjack Committee was thrilled with this decision. A veteran member protested that permitting such frivolities would "prostitute the purity of the pancake" and blah blah blah. Needless to say, Mr. Nader is no longer with us. Change is what people in the pancake world have a hankering for, and those who ignore the writing on the wall will be condemned to a fate of — well, pretty similar to that of Fred Thompson, but without the acting to fall back on.
As always, pancakes are stacked up by virtue of taste, texture, color, freshness, fluffiness, and sense of self-esteem. Price, service, coffee, viability of the mock maple syrup, parking problems, irritating music, chatty waiters, smudged flatware, and regrettable choice of artwork have also been known to affect judgments. If after a thorough vetting of qualifications we cannot come up with a clear consensus, a secondary panel of pancake superpanelists, hand-plucked from the New Times sales department, will determine the winner based on which of the competing restaurants could be most readily suckered into signing on as a new account. And speaking of new accounts, permit us to welcome our most recent sponsor, Viagra: "Because pancake batter isn't the only thing in life you want to rise."

And now, let the Official 2008 Mrs. Beeton Eighth Annual Flapjack Flip-Off Special Kitchen Sink Edition begin (Mrs. Beeton being the cookbook author who in 1909 became the first person to avow in print that pancakes "must be regarded as somewhat beyond the capabilities of average digestive organs").
The Rudy and Hillary Award for Dashed Expectations goes to presumed frontrunner Front Porch Café for its signature granola pancakes, likely the most renowned flapjacks to ever enter the Flip-Off. After getting seated at the far end of the porch and handed a menu, I was ignored — no waiter, no water, no coffee. I felt like John Hagee at a dinner party for the pope. A server eventually made it my way with beverages; the coffee was weak but as steamy-hot as John McCain's temper. Two misshapen flapjacks arrived fat and wide, garnering considerable points for being prepared from scratch. But there was only a speck of soggy almond here, a lonely oat there, and the dry, wheaty cakes needed a severe saturation in maple-flavored syrup to reconstitute into edibility (a jackhammer-happy construction crew working on the building next door provided an appropriate soundtrack). Home fries or, for sane people, fruit salad comes with the pancakes; add coffee, tax, and an automatic 17 percent gratuity for a total of $14.24 — why, that's $2 more than Mike Gravel raised for his presidential run!
The Michigan-Florida Award is presented to Icebox Café. Flavors here flip-flop more often than Mitt Romney, as the pancake du jour changes every couple of days. The morning of my visit brought a caramelized apple-and-walnut hautecake, easily two inches thick and served upside down with crisp, caramelized crust on top and soft, apple-syrup-soaked cake below: no butter or additional syrup needed. Strawberry, blueberries, the nuts, and a split apple baked almost to a state of caramelized marmalade graced the top of the stack, plus a couple of bacon strips lay alongside. A perfect pancake! Alas, the Flapjack Rules and Bylaws Committee determined that a baked pancake is not a flapjack, and had no choice but to penalize Icebox by removing half of its points. Rules are rules, as Howard Dean likes to say. A few additional points were shaved owing to an otherwise assertive coffee getting served in a cup the size of a soup bowl — feels good to pick up, but unless you guzzle it down, you'll likely be left with a lot of cold joe. And while seated outdoors, I received virtually no attention, necessitating my going inside to order and returning indoors to pay. During the latter occurrence, a waiter finally ventured outside — and tossed my newspaper. Many, many points lost for that move, apology notwithstanding. Pancakes, coffee, tax, and tip came to $15.26, which would have been higher if not for Icebox's 20 percent weekday breakfast discount.
The Audacity of $20 Pancakes Award goes to Gables Diner. Granted, it was a five-stack, and the buttermilk cakes were piping-hot, texturally tender, sensibly studded with petite semisweet chocolate chips, and accompanied by two ramekins of real Vermont maple syrup. But the pancakes were paler than people at a Tom Tancredo rally, the taste as doughy as Mike Huckabee, and service as inattentive as Barack Obama at a Reverend Wright sermon. With hot coffee, tax, and tip, the flapjacks cost an Andrew Jackson — with no change you can believe in or otherwise. This is a price only John Edwards could think reasonable.
We would like to honor The Original Pancake House — specifically the outlet in North Miami — with the holy grail of griddlecakes: The Mrs. Beeton Trophy. We would like to, but we cannot until Icebox Café finds a face-saving way to concede. The Original Pancake House impressed with a three-stack of pecan hotcakes (which also come in a six-stack): light, fluffy, beautifully bronzed, and boasting raw pecan bits — an ideal match with butter and maple syrup. The latter was as phony as Hillary chugging a beer with the boys, but for a $1.79 surcharge, you can get a minibottle of the real stuff. Even with this addition, the final bill with tax and tip came to only $12 — by far the best deal. Service was sharp too, with coffee refills getting poured as reliably as stupid questions from the mouths of Charles Gibson and George Stephanopoulos.

Honda Civic Audio Questions
mportman Posts: 1Can anyone help me?? I have an 06 Civic LX. It came factory with a nice radio, but I needed RCA outputs. I bought the factory DX dash pieces as suggested to fit the Alpine that I bought and it fits like a glove...BUT... I NEED A WIRING HARNESS!! I really and truly hate to splice the wiring. Can anyone help me?
mrcaveman Posts: 17Hi everyone. I have a 2006 LX and noticed the cd player does not read the folders I created for my mp3 music correctly. Exam: I created six folders named 01,02,03,04,05 and 06. Each have their on songs. When I put in the cd and it reads the data it thinks I have folders named 04,05,06,07,08 etc. It never shows folder 01, or 02 etc. I have made six different cd's now changing the folder names to 001,002 etc as computers like the number system. Although it never reads the folders correctly, it plays each folder and every song just fine. What's up. Anyone having this problem. I didn't want to complain to the dealer if there is a solution to this problem. Thanks all
sandman46 Posts: 1,798After a week of ownership, I really love the car. The only complaint would be the radio. My '03 Sentra's was much better, but it also had tweeters placed in the A pillars, a much better place for them. Already swaped out the door speakers with a tweeter within the speaker and though it does sound somewhat better, I wish it had more power. Will talk to my stereo guy to see how we can get better sound & power in the upper part of the cabin.
The window tint looks great with the Galaxy Gray color, and I even got the lightest tint available. It does cut the heat down dramatically. Now to find a sunshade that fits the windshield.

Sorry, No to the head unit. Yes, there is third party AMP and speaker. You have to splice the wire for the third party system. The reason is, because Honda want you to buy there products. :P
P.S. Don't make it too powerful. I found out someone crack his trunk hood other day.If you do it. Make sure you sound proof the area where the speaker is.
buffylx Posts: 2Hi:
You might interested to know that the speakers in the new Civic are cheap plastic and the mounting holes are horseshoe shaped so that aftermarket speakers do not fit. I discovered a method to install good quality speakers without modifying the Honda. Plus addition of a powered subwoofer. Details are here:- Part 1. Part3 shows the subwoofer design.
nostrom0 Posts: 44go to mp3yourcar.com
There is an adapter box which is installed under the dash. One side has an ipod dock connector and the other side connects to the cd-changer input of the head unit. I installed it myself, but you can just as easily take the whole unit to a car stereo shop for installation.
hangaralf1 Posts: 107i, like all of you, can't stand the sound..
so i went to my autosound guy and he's hooked me up with DLS speakers (anybody know anything about them?) a kicker amp, kicker 10" bass, a speaker to RCA adapter (Since at this point i'm keeping the stock head unit), a remote power adapter and a befuddling diagram to install it all. (befuddling more because i'm not sure of what i'm doing but too cheap to pay anyone else).
the present plan is to amp the rear deck speakers and the woofer in the trunk, replace the stock ones in the front and just run them off the head unit for now.
i installed the rear speakers using a wooden ring that i cut out of 5/8" plywood. (The DLS magnets were bigger than those pioneers in that link and as such would not have worked with his method - at least not based on rough observation) i screwed the speakers to the wood and the wood to the deck. i got three solid screws through the deck into the wood (get your mind out of the gutter).
i don't know why but the sound i'm getting out of the unamplified DLS speakers has no where near the volume of the stock- good but not loud. i checked the leads and the positive and the negatives are where they are supposed to be according to the service manual. is the magnet too big and needs to be amped?
something else that you should know - the front door speakers are exposed to the "elements" - that is, they get wet when it rains. i believed it was designed to do that since there are rubber gaskets on the stock speaker frames - it's actually part of the seal for the inner part of the door. i found this out after i took the door apart after a rain. the drivers were all wet. any ideas for getting around that (without cutting sheet metal)?
hello nostrom0 (or anyone),
i just bought an ipod adapter for the honda civic radio aux port (www.icarkits.com). i'm going to install it myself but i'm having trouble getting info on how to remove the panel to get to the radio. can you share how you did it? preferably with photos but anyway you like.
What year of Civic? If you go to this link over on College Hills Honda's website, they have the instructions for installing the Honda MusicLink on a 2006 Civic Sedan, which includes the steps needed to take apart the dash.
If yours is a different model or year, you can probably find some other electronic accessory on their website, which includes the dash disassembly instructions.
sorry, 2006. these college hills pdfs seem a bit more involved than what i need since they're explaning the installation of something more involved. all i need is to pull the radio out and plug in an adapter and put it back. i might be able to figure it out based on these diagrams but i'm hoping for simpler instruction and hopefully photos to make the visual more explicit. this might work if photos don't exists. thanks.
You essentially need to remove the two bolts from the under side of the dash, and pry off the front faceplate, which has 10 clips around the perimeter (4 top, 4 bottom, and one on each side, about 1/3 of the way up), and nothing really good to grab onto for help with doing that. Some rather resourceful people have used hemostats to hold the clips compressed, as they work their way around the faceplate. Once that's off, there's somewhere around 8 wiring connectors that you'll have to maneuver around, until you figure out where your new harness plugs in.
seems like the cassette player instructions on the college hills site seems most direct to my needs. i assume it's necessary to remove the dashboard lower cover in order to remove the front faceplate which will expose the radio. then i'll probably be able to unscrew the radio, plug in the adapter in the back of the radio, position the ipod adapter, snake through the ipod cable somewhere, then put back the front faceplate, then dashboard lower cover.
does this sound right? if so, your info and the college hills site schematics should be enough to get me through.
Wooow! I think I'm a bit too late to help. First, DX,LX don't have MP3 Jack. The EX do have a auxilary jack. But the the 6-pin connector (blue) for the auxilary jack is located behind the center console. That 6-pin connector connected to your radio system. It control your auxilary (second, third source gadget.) All you do is pull the center console and used that 6-pin connector.
Don't waste your time pulling all other console part, because you don't need it. :P
The cable you could purchase at dealership. Some of the people at dealership don't know much, just beware of it
The other option is spice to the 6-pin connector (blue)
Feel free to asked for detail explanation or pic. :shades:
thanks. not too late. please do provide a detailed explanation and picts. what do i have to do to get access to this connector? what do i have to remove to get to it? do you know if there is an aftermarket adapter from 6-pin to ipod or do i have to go to the dealer?
I will have a detail explanation and pic. by this Sat. I sworn I have post a some ideas of removing it and aux. jack setup on this forum somwhere :confuse:
Honesty, I don't know the aftermarket adapter is avaliable for market. I seen peoples more splicing and T-tap the harnest. I think you could purchase a single 6-pin from dealership. Because I purchase extra radio harnest last month. :P
Sorry mammy7, I thought you were wanting to use the adapter which gives you control of the iPod through your vehicle's stereo. I guess I got distracted by someone else's mention of the aftermarket dock connector.
If you're simply looking to add the aux jack, then you can order it directly from College Hills Honda, or buy it from your dealer. The part number is 08A60-SNA-100, and you can check out the installation instructions here.

An appreciation of Joseph Sargent, Director of many classic television and theatrical films, including "The Taking of Pelham 123."
"Trishna" tells the story of a beautiful woman who is cruelly mistreated by a cold-blooded man. This man is so clueless, so emotionally tone-deaf, that his brutality threatens to undermine the film. That becomes all the more puzzling because he doesn't begin that way. He undergoes a change in his nature that it's hard for us to understand on an emotional level. And that isn't a weakness in the story but a strange kind of strength; we watch in horror as a tragedy unfolds.
The title character is played by the touchingly beautiful Freida Pinto, who you will remember from "Slumdog Millionaire" (2008). By "touchingly," I mean that in the way she plays this particular character, beauty becomes like a handicap. No woman so completely without resources should be forced to live with it. Her Trishna is a gentle, sweet, completely good young woman of 19, who lives with her family in a poor rural district of India. After her father is disabled in a road accident, she becomes the wage earner. This could mean working in the fields or in her uncle's factory — or making a good city salary on the staff of a luxury hotel.
It happens this way. Trishna catches the eye of a young man named Jay (Riz Ahmed), the son of a wealthy hotel owner. He has been educated in England and has returned home, is struck by her beauty and her plight, and offers her a job in his father's hotel. He does this out of kindness, and she accepts out of necessity. At first, all goes well. He sponsors her for a course in hotel management. She is good at her work.
Then, abruptly, his behavior changes. They had seemed to be falling in love, a romance that would cross class barriers but nevertheless seems possible to both of them. Then, at a tender moment, after a kiss, he grows aggressive. Whether he rapes her is left unclear, but she is in so much dismay that she returns immediately to her father's home. Won't tell you all that happens next. Let me briefly say that Jay comes looking for her and takes her to Mumbai, where they share a flat and become lovers, and she lives with him on the fringes of Bollywood. She even begins dancing classes, and it isn't unthinkable that she could find a movie career.
But at every step of the way, all the money is his. When he flies to London to be with his sick father, she learns the lease on the flat has expired. This monster has again abandoned her. When he finds and "rescues" her another time, it is to return her to the world of a hotel employee, where she is expected to secretly continue as his mistress. His studies in the Kama Sutra lead him to sexual experiments that are repulsive to her.
Michael Winterbottom's film is based on Thomas Hardy's novel Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891). That also was about romance that violated class distinctions. Its heroine became involved with two men, one much nicer than the other, and by combining those characters into the single character of Jay, Winterbottom is unable successfully to explain why the Jay at the beginning is so different than the Jay at the end.
In any event, Trisha is equally powerless early and late — and just as much so at home, where her father treats her coldly and demands her wages, while ignoring what she does to earn them. The foundation of the story is the cruel inequality of the sexes in this sample of Indian society and the way her world has set up Trishna as a victim. I'm not sure if she ever understands how beautiful she is. But if she were less beautiful, she might have been able to lead a happier life. Pinto's Trishna is so naive she has little real understanding of the situation Jay has put her in, once and again and again. For that matter, I don't understand why he is so needlessly cruel, because he could have what he wants, anyway. He has all the cards.
Winterbottom is a director who never repeats himself, films all over the world, and in "Trishna," effortlessly embeds his story in modern India. It's possible to imagine it happening in a hotel not far from the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. India as always fascinates with its beauty and complexities. Winterbottom avoids any attempt to sentimentalize, and the realism of his film has a pitiless brutality. I felt such sympathy for Trishna. I felt such contempt for Jay. As a melodrama, "Trishna" builds a hypnotic force.

Once apon a time, in a galaxy much like our own, God thought of how he could make a difference in the earth. He took part of himself, part of the earth, and part of the sky; combining them into a new and unique thing. A form took shape; a feminine one. God looked apon this new shape as it finished it's transformation. He said, "This is a momentous day in the life of man, and she shall have a loving name given to speak to the nations." He gave her a breath of life. "And you shall be named Elizabeth."
Mwahah. Today is my "Sweet 16"! Today was one of those good days everyone waits for once a year. XD Everyone got me 'loons...9 of them that I had to carry through the halls all day.

This is certainly not the type of investigation normally
conducted by the NTSB. Two top managers for the board are
under investigation for allegedly wrapping a noose around the
nameplate of a former career NTSB executive and hanging it from a
wall fixture following a meeting at the agency. Neither the two
managers, one a GS-15, the other a Senior Executive Service (SES)
employee, nor the former employee have been identified, though The
Washington Post reports all are white.
The incident occurred at the end of a meeting August 6th. The
noose was fashioned out of soft cord used for crowd control. It was
discovered by an employee and turned over to a supervisor.
NTSB Chair Debora Hersman was not present at the meeting. She
later sent an e-mail to all employees at the agency, saying the
display was very disturbing. "At a minimum, this behavior exhibited
insensitivity and lack of judgment, and has no place in our
organization," she said in the e-mail.
NTSB spokesman Peter Knudson told the Post "According to the
individuals, it was an attempt at a joke. They indicated they had
no racial or ethnic intent in the action. Clearly, they were not
sensitive to the symbolism of the noose." He said the two men were
cooperating with the inquiry.

The new episode of #A.I.L - artists in laboratories, the weekly radio programme about art and science i present on ResonanceFM, is aired this afternoon at 4pm (London time.)
Today we will be talking with the flamboyant Adam Zaretsky, a Doctor of Philosophy in Electronic Arts, a researcher and art theorist whose work focuses on Biology and Art Wet Lab Practice. He has been lecturing and doing research in some of the most prestigious institutes around the world. If you've been following this blog for a while you probably know that i LOVE Adam Zaretsky.
Zarestsky has co-habited during one week in a terrarium with E. Coli bacteria, worms, plant, fish, frogs, mice, flies and yeast. He has dedicated part of his research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to playing Engelbert Humperdinck's Greatest Hits to fermenting E.Coli continuously for 48 hours and observing the impact that the rather camp music had on the bacteria. More recently, the artist has worked with materials that include surgically manipulated pheasant embryos and a preserved turd of the deceased writer William S. Burroughs.
So that's what we are going to discuss in this episode of #A.I.L., turds from a famous writer but also eyeballs in armpits. And ethics, biotechnological materials and ''Full Breadth Genetic Alterity.
The show will be aired today Wednesday 24st March at 16:00. The repeat is next Tuesday at 6.30 am (yes, a.m!) If you don't live in London, you can catch the online stream or wait till we upload the episodes on soundcloud.
The new episode of #A.I.L - artists in laboratories, the weekly radio programme about art and science i present on ResonanceFM is aired tonight.
My guest in the studio is artist and film maker Charlotte Jarvis.
Over the past few years, Charlotte has worked with scientists to bio-engineer a bacteria with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights encoded into its DNA sequence, she developed performances that showed the public what could happen if one day, synthetic biology was used to eradicate greed, lust and anger from a group of children.
But today, Charlotte is going to dispel a few myths about stem cells and discuss her award-winning project: Ergo Sum.
A couple of weeks ago, Charlotte donated parts of her body to stem cell research. Her tissue and blood samples are now in a lab where they will be transformed - medically metamorphosed - into induced pluripotent stem cells and from there into a range of completely different substances. A second self will be created, a self-portrait, a dopplegänger, made from a collage of in vitro body parts. Brain, heart and blood vessel all biologically 'Charlotte', yet distinctly alien to her.
The project has received a Designers and Artist's for Genomics Award. It will be exhibited this Summer at Naturalis in Leiden, The Netherlands.
The show will be aired today Thursday 7st February at 19:30. The repeat is next Tuesday at 6.30 am (yes, a.m!) If you don't live in London, you can catch the online stream or wait till we upload the episodes on soundcloud.

The new episode of #A.I.L - artists in laboratories, the weekly radio programme about art and science i present on ResonanceFM is aired tonight.
Zoe Papadopoulou is an artist whose work looks at emergent technologies and speculates on their future uses to help the public imagine and discuss what these innovations might hold for us in the coming years. In the past, Zoe has baked nuclear cakes, sold ice cream flavoured clouds and drafted the merger between the island of Cyprus and Intel corporation.
But the work we are going to focus on today is called Reproductive Futures. Zoe has spent the past year on a project sponsored by the Wellcome Trust exploring the scientific and technological developments in Artificial Reproductive Technologies. She particularly looked at questions such as "Will the techniques themselves have the potential to fundamentally change the way we perceive parenthood and reproduction? How will the stories we tell children evolve?" Her research will take the form of 3 books that address different scenarios of future reproduction through children's stories.
In the show, we will be talking artificial uterus, the orphan child who had 5 parents, artificial gametes, and premature babies exhibited in freak shows.
The show will be aired today Thursday 31st January at 19:30. The repeat is next Tuesday at 6.30 am (yes, a.m!) If you don't live in London, you can catch the online stream or wait till we upload the episodes on soundcloud.

Previously: Reproductive Futures.
Exhibitions at the Wellcome Collection are always eventful. I've seen sliced brain, freeze-dried brain, dessicated brain, two wax babies heads dissected, tin face masks for WWI soldiers disfigured by explosions and gunshot, i've learnt about the history of narcotics, read about a gentleman turned on by dirty maids, etc. Wellcome's exhibitions are dramatic and engaging but they are also impeccably researched and edifying. I can't remember having exited one of their shows without being fascinated by the amount of information their curators manage to pack in each room. Except this time.
The recently opened exhibition Death: A Self-portrait is entertaining, it contains some fantastic pieces and it definitely deserves a trip to the Euston Road museum but it is a bit light in reflection and cross-disciplinary references compared to what Wellcome has used me to. The show displays some 300 works -most of them being skulls- from Richard Harris's collection of cultural artefacts, artworks and scientific specimens devoted to the iconography of death and our complex and contradictory attitudes towards it.
The artefacts are grouped into five themes: "Contemplating Death" (a room full of memento mori), "The Dance of Death" (the 'many' faces of death, most of them are actually skelettons), "Violent Death" (artists representing the ravages of wars), "Eros and Thanatos" (the human fascination for death) and "Commemoration" (death, burials, mourning and their rituals). One moment you're looking at rare prints by Goya, next you find yourself in front of anatomical drawings, puzzling photos in black and white, ancient Incan skulls, or a gigantic chandelier made of 3000 plaster-cast bones.
One of the most striking work for me was the truly horrific cycle of 51 prints that Otto Dix made to document his time fighting as a machine-gunner on the Western Front during World War One.
Dr Luis Crucius's drawings of skeletons animated a promotional calendar distributed to doctors by the US Antikamnia Chemical Company in 1900--01. Ironically, the company's antikamnia painkillers contained an active ingredient which was later found to be toxic and addictive.
Our (western) culture tends to keep death in the background. We have lost touch with death and its rituals (unlike, for example, Mexico which celebrates the Día de los Muertos in the most flamboyant fashion.) And since none of us has a direct experience of death, we leave its interpretation and representation to artists.

A new episode of #A.I.L - artists in laboratories, the weekly radio programme about art and science i present ResonanceFM, will be broadcast today Tuesday 11th December at 4:00 pm. There will be a repeat on Thursday 13th December at 10:30 pm. You can catch it online if you don't live in London.
This week i'm talking to Bruce Gilchrist, who together with Jo Joelson is the founder of London Fieldworks, an art practice that dialogues with science and technology.
Their work, which is usually developed in collaboration with other artists and with scientists, has investigated subjects as different from each other as the caravan and nomadic culture, the animal habitat, the impact of natural phenomenon such as the weather and the light on human consciousness and the possibility to send human beings into hibernation.
The projects of London Fieldworks have led them to the Atlantic Rainforest, the Scottish Highlands, North East Greenland but right now London Fieldworks have a show at the WORK gallery near King's Cross.
The exhibition, Null Object: Gustav Metzger Thinks About Nothing, has received much coverage in the press. The first reason for it is that London Fieldworks collaborated with Gustav Metzger, an avant-garde artist who launched the auto-destructive art movement back in 1959. The idea of auto-destructive art is roughly speaking to demolish art, and reconfigure the act itself as an artwork. His work however is never empty nor gratuitous, most of his pieces deal with social and political issues: threats to the environment, nuclear weapons, nazi Germany, capitalism, etc.
So it seemed almost logical that London Fieldworks would ask the artist to sit on a chair for 20 minutes thinking of nothing. But the second reason for the vast media coverage is that while the artist was seated, readings were taken of the electrical activity taking place inside his brain. The resulting electroencephalograms were then analyzed and turned into instructions for a factory robot to drill a hole inside a bloc of stone. The result is a 50cm high cube of stone with a void that represents what happens inside the brain of Metzger when he is thinking about nothing.
In the show we'll talk about neuroscience, brainwaves, biofeedback technology and other technologies that are influencing the way we live today.
The exhibition Null Object: Gustav Metzger Thinks About Nothing is up at the Work Gallery until 9 February. The book accompanying the show is Null Object. Gustav Metzger Thinks About Nothing (available on amazon USA and UK.)
Finally, if you're in London on Friday, Jo Joelson and Bruce Gilchrist from London Fieldworks will talk about their work at the symposium Digital Reflexes: Craft and Code in Art and Design.
There is a spectacularly informative and macabre exhibition at the London Museum right now. Its title is suggestive enough: Doctors, Dissection and Resurrection Men.
Resurrection men were body snatchers who often worked in gangs to steal corpses from mortuaries and to dig up recently buried corpses to supply anatomy schools with bodies to dissect and study. Unsurprisingly, the poor, often hastily buried, were easier to unearth and carry to the nearest anatomy school.
Before the Anatomy Act of 1832, the only bodies that hospitals were legally allowed to use for surgeon training were the ones of executed criminals. And because the gallows only provided surgeons and anatomy schools with a few bodies each year, the medical profession had to resort to illegal means to get a practical understanding of human anatomy. Surgery was a dirty and agonizing affair back then. There was no anaesthetic nor antiseptic and even if the operation went well, the patient could still die from shock, loss of blood or infection. Surgeons had to be fast, their gesture confident and for that, they needed bodies on which to practice.
Some resurrection men were more unscrupulous than other. A handful even killed people to provide the corpses needed for surgery practice. The most famous case was the one of Thomas Williams and John Bishop who murdered 16 people and sold the bodies of their victims to science. They were convicted in 1831 and the irony is that after their execution, their own corpses ended up on the surgeon's table. The exhibition is showing fragments of their tattooed skin and even a slice of the brain of infamous body snatcher and murderer William Burke.
To end the ensuing public hysteria, the parliament passed the Anatomy Act in 1832. It expanded the legal supply of bodies to "unclaimed" corpse from hospitals, workhouses or prisons. Once, again, it was the poor who usually ended up on the anatomy lesson table.
Because they feared to have their body or the body of a loved one stolen by resurrection men, people defended their right to 'rest in peace' by being buried in gilded iron coffin, outfitted with locks, and graveyards were protected by fearsome "man-traps", loaded pistols with trip-wire, etc.
The exhibition starts on firm historical ground but by the third room you realize that the theme finds an echo in 21st century Britain. First of all because Doctors, Dissection and Resurrection Men was inspired by a recent event: the finding in 2006 of a burial ground at the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel. They remains excavated by archaeologists showed marks of dissection, autopsy and amputation, along with skeletons of animals dissected for comparative anatomy. The discovery suggests that the hospital dissected the body of diseased patients for surgery practice both before and after it was legal to do so.
The second reason is that the Anatomy Act was only replaced in 2004 by the Human Tissue Act which ensures that access to corpses for medical science in the UK is now regulated by the Human Tissue Authority. But even today, demands for bodies to either dissect or use as a source of organ for transplantation far exceeds the offer.
Doctors, Dissection and Resurrection Men, as you can guess, often verges on the gruesome but it is also remarkably instructive and engaging. I'm leaving you with a few more images from the show, starting with the work that impressed me the most:
Anatomy classes also took part at the Royal Academy of Arts. In 1801, 3 artists demonstrated that most depictions of the Crucifixion were anatomically incorrect. With the assistance of a surgeon, they acquired the body of a criminal and nailed it into position, flayed to remove all skin and then cast in plaster. The cast was never intended as a work of art but is otherwise on display at the Royal Academy of Art.
Doctors, Dissection and Resurrection Men is up until April 14 at the Museum of London.

Whale Wednesday: the Din Down Below
Adding to the clatter about ocean noise comes the first study indicating that whales increase their calls in response to underwater noise. Scientists studying blue whales off the eastern Canadian coast found that the giants changed their calls in response to an underwater seismic survey. On days with seismic surveys, the whales made two-and-half-times more calls than on days without, probably because they have to "repeat information", as some of the communication is lost or degraded by the seismic activity. Sounds a lot like trying to have a conversation on your cell phone while riding the DC Metro. So what do the increased calls mean for the cetaceans? As one of the researchers said, "Our research doesn't say anything about whether this increase in call rate is negative for the animals, but of course it's not positive and it may be stressful."

Whale Wednesday
Ever wonder how you measure up (literally) compared to a blue whale? It is easy to throw around things like "largest mammal" and "gentle giant of the deep" but it can be hard to imagine just how large these animals are. Visit the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society website for a chance to see just how mammoth these creatures are. A life size image of a blue whale scrolls across your screen. The first image that loads is of an eye the size of your palm. I kid you not -- I gasped out loud. Encountering animals in their natural habitats is far more awe-inspiring than flash versions on my computer screen, but I'll take the virtual version for now.

Whale Wednesday
Welcome to Whale Wednesday, the first ever hump(back) day feature devoted to cetaceans. I'm taking a cue from Oceans4Ever, the masters of alliterative weekly features, like Make a Difference Monday and Freaky Fish Friday. Hopefully this will become a semi-regular feature -- what's not to love about whales, after all? Today, three scintillating stories about cetaceans: 1. The Seattle Times reports on the first scientific review of the effort to reintegrate Keiko, the "Free Willy" orca, into the wild. The paper, which appears in the journal Marine Mammal Science, shows that while Keiko wasn't accepted by other orcas and had to be fed frozen fish until he died in 2003, he lived a longer life span than any other captive male orca. Turns out Willy's freedom was only possible on screen -- having been captured at the age of 2, he had been held in captivity too long to make it on his own.

Blue Whales at NatGeo
I've been infatuated with blue whales since I was a child (who isn't?), so I was thrilled to watch Flip Nicklin, one of the preeminent whale photographers in the world, speak last night at National Geographic. The 61-year-old Nicklin was introduced to whales as a kid. He began by telling how his father, also a diver and underwater photographer, once rode a blue whale that was caught in a gill net (he later set it free, don't worry.) Since, then he's been traveling around the world, from Patagonia to Sri Lanka, in search of the largest animal ever to have lived on Earth. And sometimes they're not very easy to find. "I'm fairly deaf," Nicklin said, "so I'm glad the whales are big." Big is an understatement -- the modern-day dinosaurs can be up to 100 feet long and weigh 200 tons, and their hearts can weigh as much as an SUV. They eat krill almost exclusively, and sometimes up to four tons a day. On a recent expedition, he spent more than three weeks at sea, and saw only one blue whale for a total of about 15 minutes. He got five usable photographs, all taken during the same minute. "They're good at playing hide-and-seek," he joked. But sometimes they are quite literally under his nose. In one video he showed, a blue whale eyed him curiously -- from less than five feet away. And most recently, he traveled to Baja, where he saw more than 20 blue whales.

Hot Topics: Noisy Oceans
A new report looks at the effects of increased ocean acidity on how sound travels in seawater, which scientists have long suspected to be influenced by pH. The report found that drops in pH affect the ocean's chemical balance and consequently lower its sound absorption, especially to frequencies below 10 kilohertz (kHz). The researchers say that by the 1990s, the oceans absorbed 15% less sound than during the previous century, which will likely affect the communications of ocean wildlife as well as military operations, by making sound travel farther and increasing the ocean's ambient noise level. Already, scientists have discovered that blue whales, which normally communicate below1 kHz, have started calling at lower frequencies.

Blue Whales' Songs Deepen
When I read the headline of yesterday's New York Times article, "Whales' Lower-Pitch Sound Has Experts Guessing," I assumed the lede would be something like, "Whales' songs are deepening as they grow depressed about global warming." Just goes to show, I generally associate deeper-pitched sounds with sadness and mourning -- and I assign human characteristics to animals perhaps too zealously... As it turns out, the lower moans might portend good after all. The piece reports that the song of blue whales around the world has grown deeper -- and scientists speculate that it could be because their population is on the rise since commercial whaling bans began to take effect in the 1970s.

Scientists Spot Rare Blue Whales in Alaska
From the Associated Press -- Scientists Spot Rare Blue Whales in Alaska:
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Federal scientists have sighted a rare mammal in Alaska waters - endangered blue whales, the largest animal known to live on Earth.
The sighting by researchers on board a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration vessel means the blue whale population may be getting healthier and expanding back to traditional territories.

SHELBY--The Cleveland County man charged with killing his stepfather and stabbing his mother is scheduled to make his first court appearance Monday.
The sheriff's office says 21-year-old Matthew Safrit shot his stepfather, 41-year-old Scott Cloninger several times in an argument over a car.
The shooting happened at a mobile home on Sam Lattimore Road, near Wesson Road, but this was not the family's residence.
Safrit was bitten by a K9 officer when he ran away and was treated at the hospital.
He is charged with murder, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injuries and assaulting a K9.

How To Make Preserves
Learning how to make preserves is easy, economical, and fills the pantry with delightful jams and jellies. To demonstrate the common method of making preserves, follow the instructions below for making strawberry preserves, which includes the proper way to sterilize canning jars and lids.
To make preserves, you will need:
- 2 lbs. Strawberries
- 5 cups Sugar
- 1/3 cup Lemon juice
- Canning pot with rack
- Canning funnel
- Canning tongs
- Glass jars with lids
- Sterilize the jars. Canning glass jars with lids are readily available at most grocery stores. Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy and rinse in hot water. Place the freshly washed jars in a large pot or canning pot filled with water. Bring the jars to a boil and boil for 10 minutes. Place the lids in a small saucepan filled with water and bring to a boil. Boil the lid for five minutes. Turn off the heat and leave the lids and jars soaking in the pot and hot water until the moment they are used.
- Prepare the strawberries. Remove the stem and core (hull) of each strawberry and place in a large bowl filled with cold water. Soak the strawberries for five minutes to easily remove dirt. Rinse the strawberries in running water and drain in a colander. Note: For larger pieces of strawberries in the preserves, leave the strawberries whole. For smaller pieces of strawberries in the preserves, slice the strawberries in half lengthwise.
- Cook the preserves. Combine the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a large pot and bring to a boil over a medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a rolling boil for 15 to 20 minutes until the syrup thickens.
- Fill the jar with preserves. Use canning tongs to remove a sterilized jar and lid from the pot. Place a canning funnel over the mouth of the jar. Fill the jar with strawberry preserves with a ladle. Fill the jar leaving ½ inch head space. Use a clean damp paper towel to wipe spills off the rim of the jar. Tighten the lid on the jar. Repeat until all the jars are filled.
- Process the jars. Fill the canning pot half full of hot water and insert the canning rack into the pot. Place the filled jars in the canning rack inside the canning pot. Add enough hot water to until the water level is two inches over the jars. Bring the water to a boil and boil the jars for 10 minutes.
- Cool the preserves. Place wire cooling racks on the counter. Using canning tongs, remove the jars from the canning rack and place on the cooling rack until completely cooled. Store in a cool dark pantry.
Tips/Warnings: Preserves can be made from any type of fruit. Find a recipe online specifically for the fruit to be preserved. Purchase a canning kit, which includes pot and lid, rack, canning funnel, and assorted canning tongs, to make the process easier. Check the seal on each cooled jar of preserves. Place a thumb in the center of the lid and press down. If the lid pops the jar did not seal properly and the jars should be refrigerated immediately and consumed within 30 days. If the lid does not pop the jar is properly sealed.

AkzoNobel has expanded its research hub in Deventer, the Netherlands, opening a new laboratory that the company says will play a pivotal role in its ambition to drive future growth through innovation. The world's largest paint and coatings company aims to increase the contribution made by innovation from about 9 percent to 15-20 percent of its revenue by 2015 and to ensure that at least 30 percent of sales comes from eco-premium products.
In 2010, the company spent close to 20 percent of its global R&D budget in the Netherlands.
RD&I Cornerstone
The new facility houses more than 200 top researchers from the company's Research, Development and Innovation (RD&I) organization. It is one of a network of six global RD&I centers that support all of Akzo Nobel's businesses. Speaking at the opening of the so-called Research Street complex, Graeme Armstrong, member of AkzoNobel's Executive Committee responsible for RD&I, said: "With nearly 40 percent of our research and development capabilities in the Netherlands based here in Deventer, and with the leading edge facilities in the laboratories which make up Research Street, we have confirmed the position of the Netherlands as a cornerstone of AkzoNobel's global RD&I organization."
The six global RD&I Centers host a combination of business-led R&D groups and several Expert Capability Groups, who work in partnership with AkzoNobel's businesses.
Amsterdam-based Akzo Nobel operates in more than 80 countries and employs about 55,000 people. Its portfolio includes International Paint, Sikkens, Dulux and other well-known brands.
