In 1959, saxophonist Ronnie Scott opened the door to a small basement club in London's west end where local musicians could jam. Today, it is one of the world's most famous jazz clubs attracting packed houses and the biggest names in jazz and popular music and Ronnie Scott's welcoming, stylish setting is also home to London's coolest late night hang.
Each night Monday to Saturday, after the main act, Ronnie Scott's presents the Late Late Show, where some of the UK's finest jazz talents take to the stage for a late night blowing session.
Clark Tracey was born in London, England in 1961. He grew up in a jazz environment as the son of Stan Tracey, the UK's leading jazz pianist, and from an early age took to the piano and vibraphones. At 13 he started playing the drums and began working with semi professional jazz groups until he turned professional at 17 in 1978 by joining his father's various ensembles, from trio to orchestra. Within that context he has toured worldwide and recorded extensively ever since. In 2001 Clark began his own record company, Tentoten Records and in 2007 he also started up Resteamed Records, a label dedicated to his father's works.
As a leader
In 1981 he formed the first of his own groups with Django Bates, Iain Ballamy and Andrew Cleyndert. Later groups included Guy Barker, Jamie Talbot, Nigel Hitchcock, Dave O'Higgins, Mark Nightingale, Mornington Lockett, Julian Arguelles, Gerard Presencer, Alec Dankworth and Steve Melling, Simon Allen and Zoe Rahman. He currently runs a new sextet featuring young luminaries Lewis Wright and Kit Downes and a quartet with Brandon Allen, Gareth Williams and Arnie Somogyi, performing British material.
As a composer
He has received commissions for his quintet, an octet called "Bootleg Eric" shared with pianist Dave Newton, "Continental Drift" (an 11 piece band co-composed with Stan Tracey and commissioned by The Arts Council), and composed for the Berkshire Youth Jazz Orchestra and the Appleby Festival big band. He has also written string quartet arrangements for his own group and vocalists Claire Martin & Joan Viskant, also the folk group Filska. He composes regularly for his own groups.
As a freelance drummer
Clark has had 30 years' experience playing alongside some of the most important artists in jazz at home and abroad. Some of the most significant unions with American artists have been with Johnny Griffin, Pharaoh Sanders, John Hicks, George Cables, Bud Shank, Red Rodney, and Scott Hamilton. British artists include names such as Ronnie Scott, John Surman, Alan Skidmore, Kenny Wheeler, Alan Barnes, Don Weller and Tommy Smith. He has recorded over 90 albums (9 as a leader) and performed in around 50 countries. He has been awarded "Best Drums" title three times in the British Jazz Awards and Ronnie Scott's Award for "Best Drums" in 2007. He has received endorsements from Zildjian Cymbals, Vic Firth Sticks and Remo Drumheads.
As an educator
Clark also teaches privately and for the Hertfordshire Music Services and has given masterclasses at Leeds College of Music, Royal Academy of Music, Musicians' Institute of London, Bracknell jazz weekends courses, the Southport and Cheltenham festivals as well as numerous workshops around the UK and overseas, attached to British Council tours.
TV - Film - Radio - Stage
Clark has appeared on tv and radio all over the world, but key moments include "Omnibus" (BBC) with his quintet, "Mercury Music Awards" (BBC) with Sting, "Father & Son" (ITV) with own group and Stan Tracey, "The Paradise Club" (ITV), "Ellington's" (ITV), "Call Me Mister" (ITV), "Blue Note's 50th Anniversary Concert" with Tommy Smith at the Montreux Jazz Festival, plus numerous radio broadcasts with his own groups on Radios 2 & 3. In 1999 Clark got a feature in the motion picture "The Talented Mr. Ripley" starring Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jude Law (directed by Anthony Minghella) and this year was involved in the soundtrack of motion picture "Alfie" starring Jude Law.
Clark has appeared on stage as an actor/drummer on three occasions; Last Chance Theatre Company's "The Last Connection" for 6 months, "Lady Day" starring Dee Dee Bridgewater for a year and "Lenny" starring Eddie Izzard and directed by Sir Peter Hall for a year.

We still need a backup PG though. The offense really went stagnant when Lin was on the bench and we can't have him playing 38 mins a night in this brutal shortened season. Remember, last year the Knicks started to falter when Felton began to struggle because he was getting tired. He had to play too many minutes out of necessity because the offense looked horrible when he went to the bench.
Hopefully Davis can make it back at some point. At least as a backup.

It's tough to put a price tag on the frustration on Oahu's roads. But Mayor Kirk Caldwell is trying to do just that.
He is requesting $150 million starting next year to repave nearly one-third of the lanes of city roadways over the next five years.
They were roads deemed degraded or unsatisfactory in a December survey of city roads.
"We think it's the largest sum of money we've ever committed in the history of the City & County of Honolulu to road repaving, and while it's not sexy, it's not glamorous, it's what cities do to make life good in the community," said Caldwell.
Caldwell says the money would come from selling bonds which are at a low interest rate.
He will need the commitment of the Honolulu City Council. Public Works chair Stanley Chang says he's all for it.
"One-hundred-fifty-million is what they've requested in this coming year's budget is twice what it was two years ago and just 10 years ago the amount allocated for road was just $5 million?" said Chang. "So, this is an enormous increase in the amount of work done."
The unions and paving companies say the project will create 75 to 125 new jobs.
"For those of us in the road-building business, this is heaven-sent for all of us and we're looking forward to dedicating ourselves to getting the work done," said Darrell Goo, senior vice-president of operations at Grace Pacific.
They mayor also announced the launch of an online program where you can find out if your street is one of those on the list for repaving, and if so, when it is scheduled between now and 2017.
You will be able to simply look up your street and find out if it's part of the plan. It's an aggressive project, but the mayor says it will take everyone to make it happen.
"We all know we need to do better so I just ask people for their patience," said Caldwell. "People on this street as the road is repaved -- it is a little bit humbug, but I can promise you once it's done, they're happy."
They mayor is also committed to spending about $3 million a year to use a slurry seal process to maintain roadways already deemed satisfactory.

I'm a first-time mom and wondering if this is normal: my 2 week old baby seems to want to spend HOURS at the breast. Actively sucking for 5-10 minutes, then hanging out with a lazy suck here an there for 10-20 minutes, then actively sucking for another 5-10 minutes. She could go on and on an on.
Last night I spent 5 continuous hours with her at the breast. I think I'm going to lose my mind if this continues.
At her 2 week pediatrician appointment she showed a very good weight gain (an ounce a day) and while her latch is on the shallow side because she is small (so I have to always use both hands: one to compress the breast, and another to support her head), her diaper output is good and when LC consultant measured her weight gain before and after a feeding it was great as well, so she is getting the milk she needs.
Should I feel more free to break the latch if she is not actively sucking for 5+ minutes and simply offer the other breast or let her sleep in my arms? This non-stop nursing is driving me bonkers!

Friends speak of classmate, struggle with tragedySeptember 27,2012Albert J. Marro / Staff Photo
A candlelight vigil in memory of Carly Ferro was held Thursday evening on the front lawn of Rutland High School where Ferro was a student. Ferro was killed Wednesday evening when an automobile crashed into several cars along Cleveland Avenue in Rutland.By Brent Curtis
The vigil was over but the hundreds who gathered outside Rutland High School on Thursday evening huddled together, reluctant to leave as their candles lit the gloom.
One student stepped forward and read a poem, followed by another who read something she'd written about the pain she and all her classmates were grappling with — the death of 17-year-old Carly Ferro.
"We lost someone special last night," said RHS student Kaylee Gilbert. "Such a young and beautiful person was taken from us and we can never get her back."
The same sentiments were expressed Thursday throughout the Rutland community, where everyone from police and prosecutors to people on the street tried to make sense of a fatal car crash that was repeatedly described as a "senseless tragedy."
That description rang more and more true as details of the crash became available Thursday.
Ferro died about two and a half hours after the crash that injured her just outside her workplace, Rutland Discount Food and Liquidation Center on Cleveland Avenue. She was just walking out of the store toward her father's car at about 6 p.m.
Wednesday, police said, when a 2004 Toyota Camry careened into the parking area at up to 80 mph and caused a crash involving four vehicles and injuring four people in addition to Carly Ferro.
Ron Ferro, who was waiting in his car to pick up his daughter, remained hospitalized Thursday in good condition.
Rutland City Police said Alex W. Spanos, 23, the driver of the Camry, had been inhaling aerosol cans of Dust-Off to get high while he drove around the city for part of the day.
More than 100 residents watched rescuers and police investigators at the crash scene Wednesday night. Many more were talking about the crash on the streets and through social media sites on Thursday.
"This is a huge tragedy for the city, the neighborhoods and the people who worked at the store, and it could have been avoided," Rutland United Neighborhoods coordinator Lynne Walsh said early Thursday.
By midafternoon, ripples from the crash had spread to the point that Walsh and city police decided to schedule a special meeting early next week to help the community process the trauma.
Starting at 7 p.m. Monday at the Northwest Elementary School, residents are invited to talk about their concerns over the incident. Rutland Mental Health representatives will be on hand to talk with anyone.
"She was a popular student on the golf team and fairly well known in the community," said Rutland Police Lt. Kevin Geno. "We thought a healing of some sort would be appropriate."
Geno said he personally understands the trauma the community is going through. The seasoned veteran said the crash, which took place on a residential street, ranks as the worst he'd ever seen.
"I can't recall a scene as horrific as this in my career here," he said.
The crash also prompted Rutland Police Chief James Baker to call short a trip to a police chief's convention in San Diego. Baker, who was in North Carolina Thursday afternoon, said he would be back in the city today.
"Collectively the police department recognizes that this is one of the most tragic events to happen in the community in a long time,"
Baker said explaining his reasons for returning to Vermont. "From our perspective, we have a role in providing resources that will help the community deal with this trauma."
For students at Rutland High School, where Ferro was an accomplished member of the varsity golf team and a member of several student groups, both the trauma and the healing were in evidence at the vigil attended by students, faculty and family members.
"I think it's safe to say we will all miss Carly and what she brought to our lives," said Associate Principal Pam Reed. "Please remember to be kind to each other and take care of each other and yourselves."

Sprecher Slams High-Speed Electronic Exchanges
By Jim Zarroli • Nov 6, 2013
Originally published on November 6, 2013 5:26 am
The CEO of the firm that's about to take over the New York Stock Exchange has criticized alternative market trading. Jeffrey Sprecher said equity markets, including the NYSE, allow sophisticated traders to take advantage of small investors. He added such models are destined to fail and that people outside the markets have a sense things aren't fair.

PROJ.4 is in active use by GRASS GIS, MapServer, PostGIS, Thuban, OGDI, Mapnik, TopoCad, and OGRCoordinateTransformation as well as various other projects.
Since work started on the PROJ.4.4.x series of releases, various bug fixes have been incorporated, and the build system has been overhauled to use autoconf/libtool. Support has also been added for 3 and 7 parameter datum shifts, the PJ* structure now also carries datum information and PJ* can be considered a full coordinate system (geographic coordinate systems are also now supported with the +proj=latlong pseudo-projection). The new cs2cs program performs a similar function to the proj program, but transforming from any one coordinate system to another. The new pj_transform() is used to access the extended coordinate system to coordinate system transformation with datum shifting. Work is underway to improve ThreadSafety.
A mapping file (epsg) has also been introduced mapping most EPSG (http://www.epsg.org/) coordinate systems to PROJ.4 format.
As of May 2008 PROJ.4 has become part of the MetaCRS project, a confederation of coordinate systems related projects and it is hoped MetaCRS will enter incubation as an OSGeo project.
Future plans for PROJ.4 will hopefully include better online documentation, refinement of datum shifting support and extension of the external programming API for greater convenience in handling coordinate systems from applications.
If you are a user of PROJ.4, and/or are interested in contributing please drop me a line and join the mailing list.
PROJ.4 has been placed under an MIT license. I believe this to be as close as possible to public domain while satisfying those who say that a copyright notice is required in some countries. The COPYING file read as follows:
All source, data files and other contents of the PROJ.4 package are available under the following terms. Note that the PROJ 4.3 and earlier was "public domain" as is common with US government work, but apparently this is not a well defined legal term in many countries. I am placing everything under the following MIT style license because I believe it is effectively the same as public domain, allowing anyone to use the code as they wish, including making proprietary derivatives.
Though I have put my own name as copyright holder, I don't mean to imply I did the work. Essentially all work was done by Gerald Evenden.

RIM Offers Premium Apps to Compensate for Four-Day Outage
Tiffany Kaiser
October 17, 2011 8:38 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
RIM co-CEO Mike Lazaridis
(Source: zimbio.com)
Analysts say it sounds like a move that will make customers aware of BlackBerry's App World
Last week, a four-day
outage of BlackBerry services
left millions of users with email, browsing and instant messaging troubles, but Research In Motion (RIM) is sending an apology in the form of free apps to make up for the disruption.
On October 10, BlackBerry customers in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa began experiencing problems with their messaging, browsing and email services. RIM blamed the service troubles on an extremely critical network failure. On Tuesday, the outage spread to South America and Asia, and on Wednesday,
the United States and Canada
There are an estimated 70 million BlackBerry users worldwide.
RIM's BlackBerry service update confirmed that services began to operate normally on Thursday, October 13. RIM co-CEO Mike Lazaridis
released an apology video
on RIM's website saying that it is the company's goal to provide a reliable communications network, but "did not deliver on that goal this week." RIM Chief Information Officer Robin Bienfait offered an apology on the RIM website as well.
But RIM knew an apology probably wasn't going to fully compensate for the four days of unreliable service. Many use BlackBerry devices for work, and can't perform well when the device cannot perform well either.
Now, RIM announced this morning that it will provide a selection of premium apps for BlackBerry users to download for free starting Wednesday, October 19.
"Our global network supports the communications needs of more than 70 million customers," said Lazaridis. "We truly appreciate and value our relationship with our customers. We've worked hard to earn their trust over the past 12 years, and we're committed to providing the high standard of reliability they expect, today and in the future."
While the complete list of premium apps is currently not available, a few that made the list are "SIMS 3," "Bejeweled," "Texas Hold 'Em Poker 2," "Bubble Bash 2," "iSpeech Translator Pro," "Photo Editor Ultimate," "Drive Safe.ly Enterprise," "Shazam Encore," "N.O.V.A.," and "Nobex Radio Premium."
Some analysts wonder if the
free apps
will be enough of an apology, saying that RIM may have fixed the problem but the damage to its reputation is done. BlackBerry has had
two other outages before
, and customers are starting to see a pattern.
Others, however, see RIM's free premium app move as a wise decision that will make customers aware of BlackBerry's App World. This is especially helpful, considering developers were dropping support for RIM, making it "the biggest loser" in the mobile app race.
"For RIM, this is an interesting way to attract users to the App World and incentivize them to search and download apps," said Francisco Jeronimo, an analyst at IDC. "What RIM probably did was an agreement with developers and is not charging the percentage on revenues they keep when a user buys an app."
"If you look at the last five years, if you look at what major innovations have occurred in computing technology, every single one of them came from AMD. Not a single innovation came from Intel." -- AMD CEO Hector Ruiz in 2007

December 11, 2013 —
WOODBOURNE, NY — Director Kevin Giroux says it will "pep people up for the holiday season." The Sullivan County Community Chorus will present its 37th annual "Winter Concert" on Sunday, December 15 at 2 p.m. at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, 6317 Rte. 42 in Woodbourne. The chorus, under the direction of Giroux with accompanist Keira Weyant, will present an exciting holiday program featuring "The Unknown Treasures of Christmas" including Daniel Pinkham's "Christmas Cantata." The performance will also feature pieces accompanied by brass choir and string quintet.
Conductor Giroux, also choral director at Tri-Valley Central School in Grahamsville, has chosen some well-known pieces and selections from Russian Orthodox music, Olde English and French carols, as well as contemporary and revivalist hymns. The program will feature a number of chorus soloists for a joyous afternoon of choral works.
Every concert has its own theme. In accordance with the theme this year, Giroux said they will perform six different versions of "Joy to the World" and holiday songs that may not be familiar to people, such as a soft jazz "Silent Night." "They may be familiar with the words, but not so familiar with the tune," he said.
Giroux has been directing the chorus for about seven years and he said the chorus has a lot of fun. "It's definitely a hoot, we have a good time. Everybody is welcoming of everybody else. We laugh and make fun of each other all the time, in a good way," he laughs.
The Sullivan County Community Chorus consists of members from Sullivan and Ulster counties, whose ages range from 16 to over 80 years of age. They rehearse every Wednesday in Monticello at the Presbyterian Church. Anyone can join the chorus. It is encouraged that you be familiar with what sheet music looks like, but Giroux said they take anybody and teach anybody.
Those who go to the concert can expect to be moved and feel joy from the holiday songs. "Our audience is very good and very appreciative of the concert. Last spring it was a packed house, and there were tears—they were moved."
Performances of the Sullivan County Community Chorus are made possible in part with funds from the Sullivan County Decentralization Program, a re-grant program of the New York State Council on the Arts, administered by the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance.
Admission costs $15 for adults, $12 for seniors and students are free, but with a suggested $10 donation. Immediately following the performance, there will be a reception open to all attending the concert. In case of inclement weather, the snow date will be Sunday, December 22 at 2 p.m. For further information contact Lucille Horton at 845/794-7869.

- Title
- Laboratory experiments: a meaningful contribution to restorative justice research?
- Author(s)
- Saulnier, Alana; Lutchman, Kiri; Sivasubramaniam, Diane
- Abstract
- Advocates of restorative justice (RJ) argue that the process offers a more effective means of responding to crime than the formal criminal justice system, and many studies have evaluated RJ positively across a variety of outcome measures, particularly in comparison to court based procedures. However, the RJ literature contains few studies that directly test the factors affecting RJ participants' behaviours and experiences, so little is known about the specific factors that influence how, and for whom, RJ works. In this paper, we argue that the expanded use of experimental laboratory methodologies will broaden and strengthen our understanding of the basic mechanisms by which RJ operates. We describe some ways in which experimental laboratory research may enhance understandings of apology in restorative settings as well as public support for RJ, and we emphasise the need and the potential to overcome barriers of artificiality in laboratory settings. This analysis of laboratory methodologies and the field of RJ research indicates that creative and well-designed experimental laboratory studies can advance knowledge in this area, allowing researchers to investigate how particular components of RJ contribute to the success or failure of RJ processes.

I took the last 10 ounces of EBM out of the freezer tonight. I just had a two hour nursing session with her. It's taking longer and longer for her to pull off and let me know she's done. I don't know what to do. I'm going to have to supplement with formula tomorrow. I'm in tears!!
My husband mentioned something that got me thinking. I was induced a week early for medical reasons, but when she was born they said she was more then likely at 36 weeks, not 39 like they had thought. I also had a HORRIBLE labor, which almost resulted in a c-section. They later told me "oops, we should have waited a few more days, you weren't ready yet" (pretty much ). Anyway, could forcing your body to do something (labor and delivery, and subsequently milk production) influence your body's ability to maintain an adequate supply? It took my milk 6 days to come in, which I was told by the LC was a long time. I guess "normal" is 3-5 days.

Justin Bieber, Colored iPhones and the Zombie Apocalypse
Posted on May 31, 2012
Customized Color iPhone Housing, just like The Biebster
Celebs Parade their Customized iPhones.
Custom housing colors for the iPhones are all the rage these days, and they're reportedly being adopted left and right by all the hottest celebrities. Here at Fix-iPhones.com, we don't just fix your iPhone, we can change your housing glass color too, and for only $249. Options even include picking one color for your phone housing and choosing a different color Home Button for extra customization.
As this Mashable article points out, it doesn't usually come cheap, with other iPhone customization jobs starting at $1,050. This humble genius assumes that the stars had to pay a pretty penny for their custom phones.
Take for example Justin Bieber's Internet-famed, jail-broken, red iPhone. And (even though there's no proof whatsoever this is a photo of the Beibernator and not some Swedish kid living in his parent's walk-out basement) it is rocking cool. True Beliebers swear up and down that scrawny arm and iPhone belong to him. And even if it's not him per se, that color is hot enough that it ought tp belong to the Biebster. As @BiebsHeaven on Twitter hilariously intones:
Kim Kardashian and Miley Cyrus also get in on the iPhone act. Kim carries a silver-mirrored iPhone—though it's unclear whether it's a custom casing job, or just the shiny, reflective surface of a case that's caught her attention and is now her BFF <3 forever. Miley sports a royal blue iPhone case. The great thing about customizing your housing color is if you just don't like the extra bulk of a case, and you're easy on your device, you can still shout out your allegiances and cool with with the color of your phone.
And if you feel like I've just listed off 3 the 'Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse' in this post, take comfort in the fact that the iPhone did beat out Kim Kardashian for the #1 spot on Yahoo's most searched terms of 2011, so we still probably do have a little while before the Zombie Apocalypse. And look at it this way: a custom color scheme will make it easier to bug out, fast, when the Zombies finally do come.
What color iPhone casing would you like? Let me know in the comments. I think I want "Zebra" with a lime green home button…

My DS just turned 4 months old, weighs about 20 pounds, and sleeps 6-8 hour stretches at night. Everything looks about right and I have NO PROBLEMS with breastfeeding except this.
My DH thinks that he should be on a 2-3 hour schedule during the day. When I am not home (at work) DS eats about every 2-3 hours. But when I am home, sometimes he'll eat every hour. When he gets a bottle of breastmilk he can eat 5-6 ounces at one time, but he normally eats 4 oz. DH says according to Amercian Ped book that he should be eating 5-6 oz at his age and gets upset with me because I don't nurse him long enough and thats why he eats every hour. I decided to feed on demand and comfort nurse with DS and did not realize DH would have a problem with it. I had a LC tell me that I was doing everything fine and perfect. But DH seems to still have problems. Does anyone have some good back up for me to help explain to him, or am I simply not doing things right?

I have heard that bogeyman came from the Bugis (pronounced boo-gee (g as in good), some ethnic groups pronounce the s and some don't) people of SE Sulawesi, who were much feared as pirates in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Didn't realize there were so many posts...they stopped coming to my mailbox after tsuwm's, which is the one I wanted to reply to. Sorry I took so long getting back. But the 'dangling cigarette' signature -style of Bogie's
screen persona is an insightful perspective on the coining of the word. I always thought it was due to his tough-man image. You know, "If I want to hang on to this for awhile, who's gonna take it back from me?" But the dangling cigarette makes a lot more sense in light of the pot-smoking etiquette coinage...for, as many of us know, this crowd was prone to be a more docile bunch...a macho, violent image would be less cool. Thanks, tsuwm!
Also, in regards to the other lineage of Boggart to bogeyman...is this the declension of 'booger' for snot as well?

Perhaps not so unexplained, silver spoons being both valuable and portable:

Your life sucks for 8 hours a day, five days a week? Suck it up and live with it. You can't always do what you like. You rarely get to do what you love. But you do it anyway because that console you're playing in your time off? That cost money. So did the collection of games. The house you live in? Money. Money doesn't bring happiness but it sure damn well can buy the things that bring happiness. Not the great ones, like love, but those small ones that helps us not put a bullet through our heads out of sheer boredum. This, mixed with the fact it's one part of your day and entire life. Your job doesn't define you or your life. In the time remaining between that dull and unfulfilling part of your work days, go out. See a movie. Be with loved ones. You're free to do whatever and whomever wants you. Don't really enjoy your job? Man the **** up and learn the real world is not what TV and society fooled you into thinking. Maybe you don't have the skills to do what you love. Maybe you don't have the skills required to even learn it. Accept the simple fact in life that some people are better at you. The main point I'm trying to make here is it's a small part of your life. Don't let it dominate you. Also, we need coal miners, and you need the money.
TL;DR: You are not your job. Live the rest of your life the way you want it, but at some point you have to realize life isn't a Disney movie where everything is handed to you after one trial.

FJ snowball effect? You see a comment thumbed down/up to hell you just thumb it up/down because who cares without even reading it?
Don't want to seem arrogant, it's just that the other comments that are saying the same thing are doing fine... and some of the ones contradicting me are doing badly but not all of them...
I'm just as confused as you are...
Maybe I seemed mad or a douchebag in this comment and explained my position better in latter ones but nobody wants to read that much frigging text... I'm just guessing at this point.

No yeah that's a real thing. To many people just see a lot of text with a few red thumbs and assume what the person is saying is rude or stupid without reading it. Other people simply see reds and follow the pack. Still other people just get a kick out of seeing someone with a lot of reds so they contribute. I know that feel all to well bro.
Good thing thumbs are meaningless right?

Maybe I'm just not sentimental about my accounts. I've had like 5 over the years. Various bans or losing some of those "Delete your account if..." things have desensitized me I guess.

This is why I hate funny junk. You got thumbed down for being a realistic, blunt, asshole. Which is what some people need these days. You go through life being told you are going to "find a job that you love" and all that fun ****. Public education is a ******* disgrace. We are constantly changing and making it harder, averting children's attention from one thing to another, constantly. Just so the kids will end up with ADD and they can take pills. Which goes straight to the foundation of our country, the pharmaceutical companies. Which is also a colossal disgrace. People need to wake the **** up and realize that they are being turned into clones. As soon as I realized this, my life has been sooooo much better. It is still quite sad to watch it all go by, because morons are too easily manipulated. Take the military for example...

Don't drag religion into places it doesn't belong. It causes unnecessary flame wars about things that have already been discussed over and over. Most religion is dismissed as "Manipulation" because you are born into it, and are encouraged into it. There are exceptions, of course, but for the most part we all have a choice in religious values, although sometimes you need to grow older before you can come up with your own ideas about religion and where you stand.

Don't drag religion where it doesn't belong... Please tell that to the schools and the government. I was making a point about how we are manipulated into thinking we will live a fairytale life, and the fact that manipulating people is so easily accomplished. Not trying to start a flame war.

Religion is more of a choice than a manipulation a lot of the time. Nobody makes you think a certain way, though you are usually steered in the direction of trends. And yes, we do not have a well enough line drawn between church and state, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the government is trying to brainwash us. They just know that lots of people go to church, and that going to church seems like the "moral" thing to do to a lot of people. It's more of a publicity thing than a brainwash thing.

There is a difference between a discussion and a flame war, i'm in no way angry or offended. But in this situation especially, religion can be something people turn to when they don't work. Lots of people enjoy and are defined by their religion, and are doing so by their own choice. Religion in moderation isn't a bad thing, and can actually be a nice pick-me up in the hard world described by payseht. I personally don't care what people believe in as long as it is not hurting people around them.

I agree with you there. It is completely fine to practice any religion you choose. I am no bigot. It is when people use their religion as a backing to prove that their "beliefs" are the one and only thought possible; thus putting other people down, or oppressing them. This is what I am talking about. It has been going on for thousands of years. In order to be so one sided in your religious thoughts, I believe that you are brainwashed. Just like being right wing or left wing fanatical for the government. You are brainwashed if you could possibly believe that way, and that you cannot just mind your own business, and live and let live.

One last thing before I go to bed I just noticed.
You don't spend most of your life working. You spend maybe a 4th, maybe less, maybe more, of a day working more or less 5 days a week, with a few weeks of vacations and days off, payed or not. That's hardly most of your life.

Yeah, i guess so. I wasn't really trying to say that life is easy, i was just saying if you work hard you're more likely to get a job you enjoy. I do understand there are also jobs that people need to do for society to function, and no those shouldn't define who you are. But for example, i would really love to get into something involving astronomy, which i love and know a fair amount about. So i'm going to try my best to get into a job along those lines. Hopefully i'll be able to, maybe not, but i'm sure as hell going to try my best to get into the field.

It doesn't really work like that. You're not given a list of jobs and you can pick and chose, try this on and maybe that later if you don't like the former. You pick something you're at least good at or risk wasting a lot of years training for something you're inherently not talented enough to do in the actual workplace. Don't romanticize life. Some of us are lucky enough to do what they actually enjoy, but most don't have that luxury. We do what we can to survive. The best most of us can hope for is making the best of a not that great situation. I don't particularly enjoy my field of work but doing what I do like makes too little money to go by or there's just not a market for my set of skills, hence I'd be unemployed. I at least make a decent amount of money and can enjoy the gross of the time I'm not at work because I can afford doing the things I like.

I understand that too, and i'm not trying to romanticize life by any means. I understand that life is hard, and i understand you don't always get what you want. But people seem to put too much of a value on money. For example, i would rather take a job that i enjoy more if it gave a little less money, because i would like going there where i spend a lot of my time. And though it sounds cliche, if you set out to achieve something, it can usually be done with hard work. If a person went "Hey, i want to be a nuclear physicist", and then spent his entire life trying to become a nuclear physicist, odds are he would become a nuclear physicists, or something close to it. I understand that the comic kind of distances itself from that, but the main point of it is to say that you should do something you should enjoy, and not always the thing that makes you the largest amount of money (In an exaggerated way)

It doesn't have to fulfill your life, but given the choice, too many people pick jobs that stress them the **** out simply because they wanted to buy frivolous things they couldn't afford doing work that they can tolerate. I understand that life in poverty is really ******, but that doesn't invalidate the problems that more privileged people have.

A balance needs to be struck for most cases. Life isn't black and white for most people. Doing something you love and being payed well is a rare case and people need to understand that. Both doing something you hate but pays well and something you love but pays poorly are suicide attempts. Some people will manage but not everyone and it's a simple reality. We just need to prepare ourselves for the coin toss that's given to us. I tried doing a college that can ensure a great job but I hated it and gave up.
Sorry if this comment seems weird but I've been awake for a very long time and don't have the capacity to make great amounts of sense and I'm trying to put every idea as short as I can afford. I'm going to bed now and hope a further discussion can happen in my absence. People can't afford dreaming in a life that's not a dreamworld.

I understand, seriously, but try to look at it from the comic character's perspective. Few people above working class bother to find a balance between enjoyment and responsibility because trying to make money as possible is a staple of Western culture. Humorists like Ricky Gervais and Scott Adams make an entire living off of poking fun at what utter ******** cubicle work is. Freedom of employment is a privilege that few people make the best of-

I can relate and understand the character completely. I gave up on two colleges because I utterly despised what I was doing and was going to do in the future. The problem is this is how common mentality is, that you can just simply give up at a very late state or that you can just choose to do what you love when it simply isn't the case. I'm a lucky case, especially since I gave up early on that life, but reality is far from the one depicted in the comic which, sadly, is the reality in a lot of young people's heads, mostly because of the "You can be whatever you want" mentality shoved into their heads since birth, when it really shouldn't be. People don't seem to grasp the fact you can't always be what you want to be and sometimes need to make sacrifices, either for the ones you love, yourself, or simply to survive, and those sacrifice include, but are not exclusive to, doing something you don't want.

I don't think the depicted character was upset that he wasn't working his dream job, though, but was merely irritated with his current career prospects and wanted a minor reprieve. There's nothing immature about going "**** it" once in a while.

He seemed to give up on his job entirely. I perfectly understand the concept of "**** it" once in a while, but saying "**** it" completely like I thought he did seemed immature. Must've understood the comic wrongly. Looked to me like he just quit his job. Mistakes happen.

Yes, some of us are less fortunate, but i guess what i'm trying to say is a job shouldn't be something you hate. If people have to take up jobs that they don't like, then that's unfortunate, but sometimes it's the luck of the draw. Jobs shouldn't be something you despise, they really should be something you enjoy. Yes they're obligatory but that doesn't necessarily mean they should be bad.

Yeah im 18 percent bf right now been wrking hard to lose weight each 1500 calories a day and cutting carbs and sugar lost 7 pounds in 2 weeks and dropped 2 percent bf so far. I just have a hard time getting motivated to lift
Very minimal man. Nothing that a few weeks in the gym and a clean diet can't fix. IMO it's not bad at all, you just need to start putting some clean bulk on.
Have you tried using a pre-workout and watching some lift videos before you hit the gym? That always seems to help me
I dont have a gym unfortunately. I have bowflex selectech dumbbells a pullup bar and p90x
Pull your pants up. In 10 years you'll realize how dumb that looks. Lol
No gyno just keep exercising. Your not 18% that's way high.
are you taking anything? like steriods, or is that natural gyno?
Aussies and Philadelphians are the only people here
Lay off the damn soy milk you homo...and pull your pants up!
Aussies and Philadelphians are the only people here
Dim and avena sativa are decent natural products to control estrogen levels! Doesn't look like gyno to me either, just google it and look at a few of those pics to compare...
did you say how old you were, didnt see it
Aussies and Philadelphians are the only people here
So you are not taking AAS? Thats a sigh of relief. You are not getting gyno especially if you are not using steroids. If you are interested I would start by eating clean and eating a lot it looks like you need to bulk up and invest in some protein too. You got the basic equipment but remember to stick to the basics to like pushups, pull ups, core workouts. Get your base trimmed up and start putting some food and water in your body and you will grow your base good. Please do not embark on a cycle yet before your base is solid as a rock and you will be very satisfied if you ever do decide to embark on a journey with AAS.
Man I don't know why you are so much in red. Haven't said anything stupid like a lot of other noobs do.
You don't have gyno. You are good to go bud
Look up books on keto diet and try to study it very hard and then implement it. Carb cycling and all that work but keto is my personal favorite. Feel free to ask any questions and we will try to help you out
People dont want to see your underwear in public
Doesn't look nothing at all... you'll be able to tell if you have gyno.
You're right nipple has fat accumulation under it. It is slightly visible around the nipple, so I can see why it is you are asking.
In the closeup picture, that is a closeup of your left nipple and that has really no accumulation, ie why people are missing why you are asking.
This is very very mild gyno or fat accumulation..Again, your bodyfat is slightly high for the ectomorph build that you have..this is not an insult...
Def start working out man, you can do this Throw in some bodyweight exercises and get active. An increase in muscle will melt that bodyfat off you!
I do think you might want to get some labs and just see what your hormone panels show.
By chance do you smoke weed quite often?? I see alot of my clients I work with have similar issues either from prepubescent or inactivity coupled with poor diet.
Again, simple fix man..
And dont be discouraged by anyone here..everyone starts somewhere

(no muscle foundation, no hair on your chest, really soft looking no muscle definition, at 6ft and 168 you should be veiny with abs. just saying you should have a doc do bloodwork and check your E2 and Test levels)
Here is my story... My whole life i was a fat ass like crazy fat. I had ADD and my doctor prescribed amphetamine salts to me in 10th grade. Those pills made me lose 75 pounds in about 4 months and i was 130 pounds skin and bone, i tried lifting for 6 months straight my diet was good and i was getting a ton of protien but just wouldnt gain weight. I read online that those pills make you lose fat along with muscle and bone mass. I stopped taking them for 2 years and i got up to 175 pounds. Three weeks i decided i need to get in shape and lose some body fat. So i started watching what i eat and cut carbs and sugar and calories and i lost 6 pounds so far. But im having a hard time gaining muscle and always had a hard time getting muscle.
And i do smoke weed about 1-2 times a week
Smoking pot makes you retain water and get a puffy look. Not to mention the increased estrogen and the fucking munchies. This dudes gettin high slammin pop tarts watching Family Guy and comin on here complainin about gyno. WTF!!!! Bro man the fuck up!!
And i have some muscle tone

Parisian Shaker, 2 Piece Brushed Finish
- 20 oz. Capacity (590ml)
- Brushed Stainless Steel
- Curved Fitting For Easy Removal
This brushed stainless steel Parisian Shaker is a 2-piece style with a curved top edging which will help prevent it from sealing so tight that you can't take it apart to create a second cocktail. While it still maintains a super tight seal as ice is added, this Parisian Shaker can be taken apart, while cold, with a slight twist and moderate effort (unlike those crazy 3-piece cobbler shakers!)
Beautiful brushed steel design and ease of use for cocktails that require a "dry shake" (usually with egg whites to help emulsify the egg) as it doesn't leak when used without ice. However, with metal-on metal, this Parisian Shaker is going to chill your cocktail fast and furious--expect to feel the chill upon shake!
Note, you still will want a cocktail strainer handy to strain the contents of your shake.

Dr. Bennet
Treatment for nasolabial wrinkles for 50 years female. Routine treatment to follow to take care of skin.
I have lots of hair growth on my face, my eyebrows are joined & my beard is covery my whole face including hair growth near my eyes, forehead. My age is 20 years & my skin is very sensitive, I used to wax, bleach, hair removal cream but hair growth is becoming dense and thicker. Whats the best possible way to get rid of excessive hair growth on my face. Hairs on my body (hands &legs) are less but on face its by genetics.
I am getting a boil near my butt crack frequently. That too the same one pops out and gets big, burst out and later disappears. After a couple of months it repeats. What it could be? This has happened for 5 to 6 times now in this year.
Why my skin of feet is peeling of and became rough and dry I tried all type of cream but can't do anything so I requesting you for solution.
I have been recommending liquid berberis aquifolium Q an homeopathy medicine for skin complexion. From past 2 months I am not getting any differences. Do I wish to continue using the same or any other.
I have black marks on my legs for many years now, they are under the skin on outer side. Some people say it is sunburn, some say it happened due to acute dryness. Need to know if it can be cured or not, and what should I do. Mo doctor has been able to help till now.
My face Skin is very dry and Dull compared to other body parts. I use Sunscreen then also it doesn't improve. I had vitamin C tablet's course for six months but it was also not working, When I used "skintight" cream containing Hydroquinone and tretinoin, it was very effective to my skin but after use of two months my skin started to become dry again and Blackening the circles near nose. So I discontinued the use. Problem exists as same Actually when I remove my shirt it is very different than face color. When I don't go in to the sunlight then also My skin becomes black. It's actually Challenge for all good Doctors.
My eyes are getting very deep set over time and this is making my dark circles more obvious. Is there an over the counter under eye cream that I could buy? I hope I don't get any natural remedies because they either take too long or never seem to work, so please suggest me a really good and effective eye cream if possible.
I'm 28. There are some marks, holes on my face and I came to know that those are acne scars. They are spreading slowly over the face. Im trying aloevera, but I do not think it is working. How to avoid and remove those acne scars. Any face cream or gel will works for that? I want my face to be clear and smooth as before without any marks. Please suggest any cream or home remedies which works. Thanks in advance.
Do you ever wish you could start all over and take better care of your skin? A chemical peel could give you that chance. Peels can dramatically reduce lines, wrinkles, acne scars, dark spots, and roughness caused by years of sun.
A chemical peel is a solution applied to the face to remove the outermost layer or layers of skin. It's a technique used to improve the appearance of the skin on the face, neck or hands. A chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. The new skin that grows in its place is softer, smoother and has fewer imperfections. The new skin is also temporarily more sensitive to the sun.
There are three basic types of chemical peels:
Superficial or Lunchtime Peel: Alpha-hydroxy acid or another mild acid is used to penetrate only the outer layer of skin to gently exfoliate it. The treatment is used to improve the appearance of mild skin discoloration and rough skin as well as to refresh the face, neck, chest or hands.
Medium Peel: Glycolic or trichloroacetic acid is applied to penetrate the outer and middle layers of skin to remove damaged skin cells. The treatment is used to improve age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, freckles and moderate skin discoloration.
Deep Peel: Trichloroacetic acid or phenol is applied to deeply penetrate the middle layer of skin to remove damaged skin cells. The treatment removes moderate lines, age spots, freckles and shallow scars. A thorough evaluation by a dermatologic surgeon is imperative before embarking upon a chemical peel.
When is a chemical peel appropriate?
Chemical peels are used to treat a number of conditions including:
1. Pigmentation on face or body
2. Tanning
3. Dyschromias
4. Fine Wrinkles
5. Acne
6. Acne marks and scars
7. Dullness
8. Aging skin
9. Crow's feet
10. Sagging skin
Who should not opt for chemical peels?
Generally, light-haired and fair skinned people are the best candidates for chemical peel. The procedure does not work as well on dark skinned patients. The procedure is not recommended for individuals with infections, active skin disease, cut or broken skin, or sunburns. Other contraindications include patients who are:
1. Nursing or pregnant.
2. Have taken Accutane in last six months.
3. Have psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis or rosacea.
Possible complications
Temporary change in skin color, particularly for women on birth control pills, who subsequently become pregnant or have a history of brownish facial discoloration.
Changes are transient and easy to take care of if taken care properly.
1. Scarring
2. Reactivation of cold sores
3. A variety of chemical treatments can be used to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin.
Depending on the depth of treatment required, your surgeon may choose one of the following peels:
1. Alpha-hydroxy acid peel (AHA)
2. Trichloroacetic acid peel (TCA)
3. Phenol peel

Epidermolysis bullosa simplex is a genetic disorder that results in the skin turning fragile and blister prone. Any small injury or friction created due to rubbing of the skin might lead to blister formation. In some cases, blisters may occur inside the mouth and on the cheeks.Normally, the cause of the disease is linked to defective genes. The condition is usually inherited and the symptoms start flaring in childhood. In some cases, the symptoms start during the early twenties.
The symptoms of this disease are:
1. Deformities in the nails of the toes and fingers
2. Blisters in the internal organs such as esophagus and vocal chords
3. Formation of blisters on the skin of the feet and the hands
4. Loss of hair and scarring of the scalp
5. Thickening of the skin on the palms and soles of the feet
6. Formation of white skin bumps on the skin
7. You may experience various dental problems such as tooth decay
8. You may have problems in swallowing food
Epidermolysis bullosa can be classified into:
1. Junctional epidermolysis bullosa: This is a severe form of epidermolysis bullosa that usually develops during birth. The condition is characterized by hoarse and unusual crying sounds and scarring in the vocal chords. The genes that attach the epidermis to the basement become defective and thus, cause blister formation.
2. Kindler syndrome: This type is characterized by blister formation across all layers of the skin, but its symptoms tend to disappear with time. This condition is known to cause discoloration of the skin when exposed to the sun.
3. Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa: This is caused by a defect in the gene that causes problems in collagen formation. This results in complications as the skin doesn't join properly.
Risks associated with it
This disease may cause various complications such as sepsis, skin infection, anemia, constipation and dehydration. An infant, who has a severe form of epidermolysis bullosa, may not be able to survive due to widespread blistering and infections that may drain all the body fluids out drastically.
Hi. I'm a 22 year old female. I am a student. I have white pustules on my scalp since past 6 months. My dermatologist gave me amoxicillin 500 mg initially. The pustules went away for a week's time and returned back. Then my dermatologist recommended me linox 600 along with vizylac, twice a day on 12 hourly basis for a week. The pustules went away for 15 days and came back again. Then she took my skin prick test and asked me to avoid the things I was allergic to. I even did that. But nothing helped. The pustules are still on my scalp. They are filled with yellowish/white puss and has redness around its boundaries. They pain when touched with the Brussels of the comb. Please suggest me some medicine to permanently get rid of them. As they are causing me lot of hair fall too. I'm scared since no remedy of my dermatologist worked .

Umbilical hernia diet
An umbilical or belly button hernia occurs when a part of the intestines or the abdominal lining protrudes through an opening in the abdominal muscles. The protruding intestines may get squeezed or strangulated resulting in the blood supply getting cut off. Surgery may be required in serious cases of umbilical hernia. Doctors often suggest a special diet for umbilical hernia patients as this helps to prevent further complications.
Foods to avoid
Certain foods are not recommended for people with an umbilical hernia and should be avoided.
These include:
White refined flour foods made from white refined flour have a low fiber content. Eating these foods may cause constipation and should therefore be avoided. This is because constipation causes straining of the abdominal muscles during bowel movements and may cause further protrusion of the intestines through the abdominal muscles in the region of the belly button.
Low fiber fruits and vegetables the low fiber content in these foods can also lead to constipation. Examples of fruits and vegetables with low fiber content include skinless raw fruits, cooked fruits, and canned or cooked vegetables without seeds, hulls or skin.
Fatty foods foods with a high fat content should be avoided. This is because obesity results in greater pressure on the abdominal muscles and can increase the risk of umbilical hernia. Examples of foods with a high fat content include fatty meat such as pork, whole milk, butter, cream, margarine and fried foods.
Sugar limit your calorie intake by cutting down on foods such as pastries, cakes, chocolates and soda pop. Limiting your sugar intake will also help you to lose some weight, taking pressure off your abdominal region.
Foods to include
A special diet is required after umbilical hernia surgery. This will help you to minimize your convalescence time. The special dietary requirements include:
Fruits fresh fruits that have high fiber content and are rich in antioxidants should form a part of every meal. The high fiber content will ensure that you do not get constipated and the antioxidants will help protect your body and boost your immune system. Try to eat different types of fruits so as to get adequate amounts of different vitamins. Citrus fruits, berries, and apples are some examples of fruits with a high fiber and vitamin content.
Vegetables these too have a high fiber content that will guard against the dangers of constipation after an umbilical hernia surgery. They also have high levels of vitamins and minerals and should also be included with every meal.
Lean meat meat is a source of protein, which is essential to the repair of damaged tissue. Lean meat like poultry and fish is an excellent source of low fat protein. Have one good source of low fat protein with every meal.
Low fat dairy products these are a good source of protein and can be alternated with lean meats to provide your body with sufficient protein.
High fiber breakfast foods will aid digestion and so your breakfast should consist of foods made from whole wheat flour, wheat germ, oatmeal, or bran.
