Men: how you drain that last bit of pee
254 Comments on "Men: how you drain that last bit of pee"
Ladies: Stay tuned for our version, coming up next.
My grandmother used to tell me that my grandfather had often said, "No matter how much I wiggle and jiggle, that last drop always ends up running down my leg!"
Come to think of it, why would my grandmother report my grandfather's urinary humor to me?
I dunno. It just goes to show you that this has been an issue for men for a long time.
You can shake it, you can wag it,
You can pound it on the wall.
But only back inside your pants
Will the last drops fall.
At the urinal in a public place, my father taught me to wiggle my penis using both hands. I was about seven at the time and it has served me and my underwear well through the years. Occasionaly, if I'm in a hurry, my leg might take a little run-off. The grossest thing I've seen, however, in mens rooms is little children who are barely tall enough to reach the bowl of the urinal, allow their penis to touch the front of the bowl, and in one case, the little boy had his organ a little bit in the unflushed bowl as he went. The final shake I saw him give it exposed him to even more germs. His father, standing right next to him, complimented him on how well he completed his "number l".
I shake rattle and roll then blot. The advantage of this is that I can then use the TP to wipe the seat.
Number One . . . I order you to take a number two.
Number One . . . I order you to take a number two.
I also find that if I sit to pee that when I start to stand there is a dribble effect. Very strange. Also sometimes when I stand up I need to pee all again. Anyone else experience this?
Number One . . . I order you to take a number two.
Number One . . . I order you to take a number two.
I have a pretty effective system of keeping the escapee dribblers at bay.
While I blot with the toilet paper, I gently squeeze my tallywhaker, and thrust from back to front, until no more drops come out.
Watch out for the deadly F4, though he's been gone since '53, he will be back.

Re: the matter of the little boy with his penis in the unflushed urinal--I've noticed newer facilities with one urinal closer to the floor. It's obviously designed for "wee ones." (Guess that's a pun!)

Gentle squeeze from the base, blot with toilet paper at the end. End with one shake for good measure.
a 16 gallon shop vac works well to suck out the last drops or just slam the toilet lid down 3 or 4 times on pedros head that usually drains the final drops out
Anonymous Coward: is your suggestion from 'The Aspiring Eunuch's Guide To Urination?'

yes big wiper it is i learned that trick drying out firehoses i figured it worked on hose that small why not give it a try
I always use tp, but when i was a kid I had yellow under shorts because I never did any thing but put it away realy fast.
First, ya gotta cup the sack...oh wait...thats something else. I wring it out like a wash cloth, and slam it in the door three or four times, catch it in the zipper, rip it out of the zipper, dance, scream and cry...and just go get fresh clothes.

Chuck is correct.
Hey Hey, My My:
Spot on your pants will never die
If you understand the anatomy of the urethra - or at least the pathway it takes - you'll understand that the method I use produces a spotless, dropless tip. I haven't had a pee stain in my choneys in years. Since I can't post a diagram of the urethra from bladder to weenie, let me just say that it runs very much parallel to the "taint" before entering the hose proper. The "taint", if I need to spell it out, is the area where 'tain't ass and 'tain't balls. I can't get much more descriptive than that.
Well, yes I can, actually. Okay, you menfolk, when you get yourself a boner, have you ever noticed that the region of the taint gets firm as well? The corpi of the penis aren't only in the shaft. Okay, if you know what I'm talking about, next time you take a piss, try this:
Run your index finger upward from the taint toward the shaft of the penis, applying some pressure. How much pressure will be something you'll learn over time.
This will urge any fluids still in your urethra to exit. You might have to give the bellend a cursory flick of the finger to dislodge any tenacious drops, but trust me when I say that you'll have a very cleared out urethra.
If you need more description, I'll add this: When you ejaculate, there will be many times that not all the semen leaves the urethra. It will later drip out when you are flaccid. Have you ever done what I described above? That is, run your finger along the "root" of the penis, upward, applying pressure, to help exude the last little viscid drops? No? Well, then, give it a shot some time.
Your sheets will thank you. Your undies will thank you. And all of you will thank me for teaching you something that I have not yet been able to teach my wife. I laugh too hard when she makes an ineffectual attempt to "assist" me when I pee (yes, she's a nurse, and she finds it most amusing)and doesn't get the idea of what works for getting that damned last bit of wee out.
Give it a try.
Oh, and by the way, I know it's considered a bit effeminate by some, but you will have a lot less dripping if you sit to piss. You will also have a ton less splashing that lands on the rim and, eventually, the floor. Anyone who has a carpeted bathroom and still stands to pee is creating a disgusting petri dish of gummed ureic acid loving microbes. Ugh.
Rinsing is the best method, after your done pissing just grab a palm full of water from the sink and rinse your johnson off, this is why bathrooms with lockable doors or the handicapped stalls with their own sinks are choice. Don't get caught doing it though, or if you do you'll get odd looks, but hey at least my boxers don't stink like spoiled piss.
no matter how much you shake jiggle and dance
the last three drops always end up in your pants
yours in time,
Sharty Mcfly
Couple of good shakes and a flick. Ony more than that and you're just playing with it...

Thank you, Dumpster. I'm already registered, but some times I prefer not to post under my registered name. I'd like to preserve the impression some have of me as being a little bit of a jerk at times, whether that's warranted or not.... either that, or I some times find that I'd rather post under a pseudonym more closely related to the theme of the post. I can never aspire to the lofty post totals of some of the veterans, so I'll just "scat"ter my posts when I have time to visit the site, and hopefully at times make a tiny contribution to the discussion without personalities being a factor. Signed, Bone Dry Boner, a/k/a, Brown Finger, a/k/a Surgin' General, a/k/a...well, you get the picture... (no, I'm not CEP, by the way)...
Now you have me wondering.
My goodness. Now I have this image of all you PR guys thrashing about wildly and doing cartwheels to get a few drops of pee out.
Not enough mind-bleach in the world...
Well, Ms. Poopie, we're very happy to help populate your fantasies. Along those lines, I add this:
I've found that I can get a pretty drop-free dicktip by pivoting my hips to get the old noodle swinging, gradually building to a crescendo, with the veiny third leg fwaappping against each hip, flinging all recalcitrant drops of wizz violently from their hidey hole.... of course, there's a bit of cleanup required (mirrors, walls, cabinets, etc.) so I only recommend this technique be used at work, in fast food restrooms, or on cross-country flights. Ha ha! I kid with you! I hardly ever do it at work!
No matter where I am away from home, I sit down to pee. I learned to do this in public when I was only 4 or 5 and my mom would take me to a stall in the ladies room and I would pee. Initially I wanted to stand but she taught me it wasn't fair to the next woman to have pee on the seat and that since men are notorious for not lifting the seat, I should just sit down.
In the upper elementary grades we had open stalls and a few of my classmates would whisper that I was gay, but I didn't let that dissuade me. At first I sat with my legs too close together (I didn't want to expose my small organ) and it was hard for me to get started. However, by middle school I learned that peeing came much easier when I sat farther back on the seat, spread my legs more and let my penis be the hose without my touching it. When I'm done, I slide more to the front of the bowl, wiggle it two or three times, but always always making sure it doesn't drape over the front of the bowl. I then take one square of toilet paper and gently dab the front.
By the time I was in high school I found sitting down had several advantages, even though the stalls in most of the restrooms were without doors. First, I avoided lines for the urinals. Secondly, since there were more stalls than users, I didn't have to worry about hurrying to get done, and occasionally I could take my shit in the same sitting. Third, the view of the wash basins was much better than standing at the urinal and being grossed out as the urinal bowl filled and filled, without often being flushed. There were a couple of stalls, however, I would avoid because the mirrors above the urinals were low enough to pick up some of the action in the stalls. To this day, and I'm 27, I still sit to pee in public and I doubt that I will change. The only difference, how, is that I get closed stalls. More importantly, my briefs and slacks are not stained and I'm able to get off my feet for a couple of minutes. Also, I have a six year old son in training!
You know, I was going to come up with a female pee version, but really, we just don't have this problem or anything like it. Girl pee polls are just weird, besides. I think I'll stick with poop polls.
Do girls really pee? I just thought y'all went into the restroom to talk about whose boyfriend was the cutest.
Oh... please do a female pee post, AB2K! It may not be quite so vivid an image as our male counterparts thrashing their tallywackers around.... but it would make for a few good laughs.
Umm, yeah, dumpster - girls really pee. And very often! Lately, it's been WAY too often for me!
Rock-n-roll! Poopy-poo!
Rock-n-roll! Poopy-poo!
Women, if there's no separate survey, just start posting here.
I'll help you: As a male who has been on more than one occasion greeted by the acrid, ammoniac reek of a piss marinated pair of labia when my face was in that vicinity, I can tell you that not all women are finishing what they started when they squat to pee. It's not just a matter of them failing to clean up the area properly. Some of them apparently have little leaking events, either immediately afterward or at a later time.
I had a girlfriend who was a cleanliness freak and a germ phobe who generally always had a fresh, healthy air about her, but some times she just didn't seem able to get those last few drops out when she took a leak. I'm all for the occasional musky female aroma, but the diaperlike blast of a pudendum steeped in urine from earlier in the day is a bit of a mood killer.
There you go, girls. REACTION!!!!!
Huh. Good to know.
You know, call me unspontaneous, but when I have any reason to believe "that vicinity" will be given close scrutiny, I make sure to wander away for a moment of personal time, if you know what I mean.
With just what kind of ladies to you keep company?

Oh! And AB2K, I think you could still do the poll, even if the questions don't line up, exactly.

GGG, you took the words right out of my mouth.
Feminine Hygiene Advisor, have you ever seen movies where you know a couple is going to have sex and the woman steps into the bathroom saying, "I'm just going to slip into something more comfortable?" She's not just changing her clothes. She's in there making sure everything looks and smells pleasant.
If your partner isn't freshening up and you're willing to live with it, I suggest you save your passion until you can follow her into the shower. ;-)
Sounds to me like BDB's root-pressure technique might be coaxing the last stubborn drops past the prostate. That's a good tip, but here's another one, guys. If it seems like more than a few drops are produced this way, you might have a slight case of PH (prostatic hyperplasia); an enlarged prostate. Just something to keep in mind. My last drop(s) technique...? A couple of strokes, base to tip, followed by a good shake. Seems to serve me well.
I just strike a yoga pose, and suck the last few drops in to my nose. For years, I have been trying to get this pose right. I only need about another half inch before I reach my goal. In the meantime, I am putting it to good use.

Had no idea this whole "good to the last drop" stuff had such an erotic aspect.
As for me, I just wring my thing like a wet towel....probably should cut back on that, because it's starting to look like a screw!

Clearly, "erotic" is in the mind of the reader. If you got a jolt out of my post, Recto, try Googling "cow milking techniques". That should have you typing one-handed for hours. BTW, don't let Sam fool you: he HAS perfected his technique, and he hasn't left his home for several weeks.
What the hell has this got to do with poop? Did I miss something here?
I sternly shake my wet tipped wanger,
To rid that stubborn one drop hanger.

Or fly against the restroom wall.
Why, pray tell, last drop of pee,
Dost thou cling so firm to me?
Anonymous coward: It has nothing to do with poop. However, like a shark, this web site must continue moving forward or it risks dying.

Fudge, I believe there's also a site called ratemyfart.com that has some hilarious audio of farts, although some of them are clearly fakes made with someone's mouth. Haven't checked it out in a while, but after ratemycameltoe.com stopped showing nude camel toes I needed someplace to post my rating s of something, anything, you name it. There's also ratemypoop.com, and probably a dozen or more other ratemy[fillintheblank] web sites. Some are hilarious, especially ratemyschlong.com.
Uh, how did we get off the subject so badly?

There is still The Camel Toe Report, which, though but a pale reflection of this great site, nevertheless contains some awful pictures of, as well as some biting social commentary on, peoples' lack of sartorial sense in the lower crotchelary region.
I just grab the offending member and choke him til he pukes. Then I have a viscid white liquid rather than a yellow thin liquid to contend with.
No wonder penises are so peculiar. You would be too, if you hung around with a couple of nuts all the time.
Gilbert blots it with toilet paper. He can't stand the yellow stains in the underwear. Plus, smelling piss in the bedroom is a definite turn-off for me.
If a man farts and no one's around, does he make a sound?
I found Jesus! He was behind the sofa the whole time!
It's gross and probably as clean as sitting on a urine-laden public toilet seat, but I've seen several guys in both high school and now in college simply rub the head of their johnson on the sides of the urinal. I'd rather risk the stains in my boxers. My girlfriend said she's seem similar disgusting things such as sorority sisters sitting right down on urine-covered toilets and not thinking anything of it. Human mops???
Since I now drive and it's been cold, I've had to pick my kid brother up at his middle school. When he wasn't ready in the lobby, another student said he was in the restroom. It was an open stall bathroom. While I waited for my brother who was taking a shit, I couldn't help but notice a much younger boy in another stall who was peeing sitting down and then flicking and wiping his penis over the front of the bowl as if it was a cigarette. Gross indeed! And he didn't even wash his hands or flush when he left the stall!
All this technique talk has made for some really funny mental images, thanks guys....
Ok, here's a question I've always wondered about and this looks like as good as any place to ask it (AND brings poop back into the equation!):
Do men (and other women for that matter) have that last bit of pee, about 6 cc's worth that only comes after a dump is complete? I always know when I'm done crapping because no matter how much I've emptied my bladder during a shit, there's that last tinkle to signal the end. Sometimes you think you're done crapping, but that piss doesn't come and lo and behold, some more crap comes along. It signals the end very time (and helps with having a moistened first swipe of the TP).
I've always wondered if guys got that phenomenon as well....and finally I have people to ask!!!!
'Hey that sounds pretty nasty, how about a courtesy flush over there?' (AP1)
'Hey that sounds pretty nasty, how about a courtesy flush over there?' (AP1)
I do all of the above after a pee: shake, rattle and roll, squeeze, twist, get rid of the last drop and wipe off with the TP But then when I'm back in bed, a few more drops appear, and always when I want to appear, if not exactly cool, then at least clean and tidy, to my companion! Any more tips on how to avoid this delayed and slightly damp embarrassment? Or should I consult a medic?
"I gently squeeze my tallywhaker, and thrust from back to front, until no more drops come out."
That's not disposing of the last few drops, h1; that's masturbation.
Deja Poo - Because this shit's so strange, it couldn't ever have happened before.
Yo quiero Taco Bell.
Yes, Nine. I use the squeezing out effect of standing from a sit to my advantage. When already standing, i try to squeeze it out with my butt and leg muscles.

Happy crapping! (_o_)
Isn't this a glorious site? Finally, a place where people can discuss the important things in life.
Here's a last resort tip: If you've tried the above strategies, and still have problems removing the last few mililiters of liquid waste, you may want to consider diapers, or pads. If are really afraid of stains, you may try a catheter. Just attatch the tube to a bag and tape it to your leg.
Just hook the catheter from your dick to your stomach. You'll never have to worry about leaks, and you'll never be thirsty again.
a wild thrashing maybe some banging whatever it takes i hate piss soaked underwear
I just shake a time or two. Also, I've discovered that when I'm wearing underwear (boxers)it's much easier to pee without any "incidents" if I pull my dick out through the leg of my shorts rather than pulling it out through the usual opening.
I just stand, pull my penis out pee and to get rid of some of the drops i shake 1 or 2 tiems. But no matter how much you try you'll always get a drop or 2 in your underwere. :O

You can shake it
pound it squeez it
You can hit it on the wall
But you gotta put it in your pants
to get the last drop to fall
I had a nose hair implanted near the tip.
When the last drop starts to fall, everyone near me nears "SNIFFLE!!!"
You have the right to remain Silent but Deadly....
You have the right to remain Silent but Deadly....
I just stand at the urinal, and when I'm done, to get that last drop away, I shake vigorously a couple of times. I that still doesn't work, I bang my dick against the side of the urinal.
I hate it when men use the stall just to piss and get the toilet all messed up for when normal men need to use the stall for what it was meant for. Men should use the urinals to piss, that's what they are there for. People who are afraid of using urinals around other men need to grow up. I just one of those things us guys need to get used to.
I'm glad to hear other guys having trouble with the last few drops not coming out until they put it back in their underwear. I have that trouble, but if I happen to be wearing gym shorts, I can drop my dick down and out the bottom on one of the legs of the shorts, and then shake it.That gets every last drop out.
I have a rather large welding vise that I use. This requires a short walk from the bathroom to the garage with my pants down. A half a dozen turns or so with the handle and I can return my winkie to my underwear a subdued dripless member.
I saved the wringer from an old wash tub...couple of runs through and I'm good to go.

i like dripping the last bit on my underwear.. to me it feels cool and manlier..
AC, I think the ladies should have an answer for you on that. Girls, is there nothing more of a turn on than to grab your mans cold wet crotch?
I don't shake my dick after pissing, so my boxers are usually yellow and wet a bit. If I'm in a hurry, I just put it back before I get that one last squirt.
I have no problem at all in this area. I had prostate surgery several years ago to correct a urine retention problem. I was retaining 1 liter in my blader all the time. After corrective surgery I still retain 1/2 liter so I must use a catheter several times a day.
After self catherization I am completely empty and need no flopping, shaking, flipping, wagging, or any of the other aforementioned methods of freeing one's johnson of the last drop of dew.
I had a friend in the service who said a commode seat fell and mashed his son's little weenie. The young lad cried and asked his mother to kiss it and make it better. She replied, "you're getting to be just like your father!"
Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
If I had two faces do you think I'd be wearing this one?
Chief, I heard that as a joke about the weekly poker game. 4 year-old kid runs in holding his crotch in tears. Dad asks "What happened?"
"The toilet bit my pee-pee, Daddy... Kiss it better!"
Not one man laughed as the Dad took his son to the bathroom and made sure everything was O.K.

Another funny thing about the male urethra is that it is slightly wider behind the glans and that wide space holds a couple of extra drops. If you milk it forward from behind the glans, you will usually get rid of the drops that fall out when Mr. Happy is returned to your pants.
When we went to PE lesson in high school, some boys had really dirty underpants. They had yellow stains all over their boxers. Even shaking is funny in a school urinal, and the norm is to put it away as fast as possible. Sometimes they cut the jet with the zipper. Do you experienced the same?
I haven't wiped my dick since I was six. If I wear light pants, I shake a bit otherwise the stain hit through. In my black jeans, like today, I just let it drip in my boxers. Actually I feel a chill stain in my boxer briefs right now because I peed a few minutes ago. Well, in what condition are your undies now?
I don't waste my time with waiting for the last drops, just let them soak in my boxers and go. I haven't seen any guys who wipe, my friends just shake once or twice. I don't really care if I have piss dribble in my undies, I got used to the wetness on my dick like many guys, since I almost never shake. If I wear tighty whities, the left side becomes all yellow quickly, and sometimes I see the piss spreading around the boxers fly when I zip back. It's just a part of being a man. If you change your underwear daily and wash your hands after pissing, you're OK.
You people are disgusting with your yellow boxers. How can you stand to sit in that all day? And the smell? After a while it must collect!
Well, you don't actually blow on it. That's just an expression.
I found Jesus! He was behind the sofa the whole time!
I just don't pay attention to the damp stains, Shit Volcano, they don't disturb me at all. As above the 'I let my underwear absorb the wetness' option got the most votes, I think boys are just habituated to cool their willies this way. Otherwise it may have biological causes too, because genitals need a bit lower temperature than the other parts of our body, that's why we have them out of the body. Higher temperature can cause impotence. If we hide them in the pants, maybe they need some making cold like when you're sweating in summer to avoid overheating. Putting it away hastily with a final pee squirt running down the balls feels like an instinctive movement for me, while girls need the opposite to protect the uterus so they wipe. But I'm not a doctor.
Anyway, most dudes usually keep their dicks in some half-dried pee stains, admit it or not.
That's why I wear boxerbriefs. They soak up loads of drops so the stain won't appear on my jeans. Traditional boxers don't have a second layer and let your penis fall on your leg where your pants quickly press out the pee from your undies so everybody will see that you come from the urinal. It's really embarrassing. I also don't shake, but my jeans are never stained, only my underpants. Another trick is to put your left hand in your pocket when you pee, and catch your undies crotch with it for some seconds when your dripping tube arrives in it, so it won't reach your pants until the stains finished their spreading. After that it won't hit through.
For Bikerguyupperlands' question: I'm dry now, I only have some small dried yellow stains.
If my martinis are dry enough, the last bit of wee is just dust anyway.
Then you can be self-baby-powdered.
After reading the post of Girlie Guy Gary (12.13.2006) and some of the other comments, last week I switched to sitting down to pee. I tend to wear light-colored slacks frequently for my job and I got to the point where I was sick of splatters on my slacks from peeing at the urinals. Also, at age 25, I don't like the hassle of having to take the back aisle and stay in my office cubicle for 10 or 15 minutes because I have a quarter-size "last bit of pee" stain to hide. Also, for time purposes there's almost always a stall open whereas lines for the urinals are freequent. When seated, I'm less nervous to finish up fast and in most cases I have the advantage of toilet paper to do a fast wipe for that "last bit of pee." The woman to whom I am engaged, however, sees it just the opposite. She rarely will sit on a public toilet and is in favor of female urinals. However, on a couple of occasions in the past year she has had accidents and wet herself while waiting in line in public restrooms. Nothing's perfect, I guess!
This forum is really funny, guys. I always wipe and keep myself dry, but you non-shakers reminded me for the good old 90's when I was a teenager. I also used the stall at that time in school because of wiping, but sometimes I tried to give it up, use the urinal and at the end just throw my still spraying cock in my briefs fast like my schoolmates usually did. It was strange to sitting through the lessons and writing with soaked briefs sticking to the penis like the other boys used to, and showing up in stained underpants in the locker like my classmates. I felt like I had a hole on my pants over my willy and I would be nude only on my most private part. It was a free, but embarrassing feeling, and after 1-2 days I always returned to wiping.
One hundred years ago many urinals had toilet paper, and more men wiped then nowadays, but between the two wars the communal TP became prohibited in urinals because it caused infections. Maybe the health officers thought that men would use their own hankies, and didn't count on guys give up wiping so easily. Then came the "more than three shakes are a wank" and other sayings, and in the last years jeans with darker zones around the fly and between the legs are brought in fashion - they hide stains well. I wonder what comes next. Take out your boxers and pee through it, because if you show your dick you're gay?
I heard the "only gays wipe" prejudice, and I just laughed at it. I'm gay and I shake, earlier I had a boyfriend who just let it drip and had long, narrow flows on his boxers. The only man about whom I know he wipes is straight, he does it because his girlfriend requests.
So when I do the laundry, that's why I can collect my two sons' undies so easily because the yellow fronts are lighting. After all I feel relieved seeing how common is this. Guys, only your decision - it's not me who have to wear them all day.
We are slobs, guys, to tell the truth. One of my friends earlier wiped his dick, but we teased him for it until he stopped it. The poor boy had hard days at first, frequently tried to move his willy to a dry area in his underwear, but later he accepted it and now he just puts it back dripping, so naturally like he would always do it. Why didn't we let him to be clean? It's a shame that we even spread carelessness.
I never knew there were so many leaky dicks in the world.
I employ a Thai girl as a bathroom attendant at home, she sucks the last few drops off.
In a public toilet I`ll wipe the end on the shirt of the guy next to me.
As healthy1 and Deja said - more than 2 shakes is a wank.
The voice of sanity
My sister works in an office and her desk is in front of the mens room's door. Once she told that there are 3 guys who frequently come out with a wet patch on the crotch. One of them, a young guy who started to work this year sits not far. My sister wrote a short letter with her colleagues about the leadership's decision that they won't pay clothing allowance for men who don't shake after urinating, and put it on his desk. They saw his horrified face when he was reading it. The best part of the story is that he has got no wet spots since the letter.
More than 2 shakes is a wank!?!?!
I heard that you could shake it once for each day of the month before your birthday.
Seeing as my birthday is on the 29th, I never have a problem with after-dribble.
The white zone is for loading and unloading only- FZ.
BM - there must be a few raised eyebrows from your fellow pissers if you give your wanger 28 shakes.

My birthday is on 26th January, but I didn't do 25 shakes after peeing in my life altogether. We could compare our habits with our astrological signs, Aquarius is a wet sign hehehe.
Thunderbox is right, more than 2 shakes and you're playing with it. Boys have wet spots and live with them. You should get used to this instead of shaking so many times. I never heard my friends saying after-dribble is a problem, although they have it after every piss, sometimes it hit through their jeans too. I wish you the last ten drops to be the biggest problem in your life, Blind Mullet.
OTHER- I have an aged piercing that kinda confuses the flow. For me, taking a pee is like playing the flute. I have to sit, then check which hole it came out of.
Did I just fart?.... Oh shit! NO!!
I hope to god I've just sat in a Shepard's pie.
I feel the wet stains after every use of the urinal. I just piss, tuck it away and go, never dry it in any way. My average pee stain size is about 2-3 inches on the boxers, over my left leg where guys normally leave those dribbles.
The worst after-dribble I've ever seen was my classmates' - I waited for the one and only locker room toilet and urged him. When he opened the door and came out he got a bit more pee what spurted through his boxers in a short jet and landed on the floor, almost on my knees. He didn't even recognize it.
BM, 28 shakes and I'd have more than pee dribble to contend with.
BVC's comment reminded me of the old joke about the 2 fellas out shooting.
As they're climbing through a fence, the .410 goes off and shoots one guy's dick full of holes. The other guy says "Don't panic, I'll get you over to my sister's house"
The shot guy says "Is she a doctor?"
The other guy says "No, she's a piccolo player, and she'll show you how to hold it so you don't piss all over yourself"
The white zone is for loading and unloading only- FZ.
When I was younger I didn't shake after pissing. I also started peeing too fast and the first squirt usually landed in my boxers. If it showed on my jeans, I hid it with my T-shirts so nobody could see it. Later I decided to be more careful and it's more comfortable too, but my older boxers are still yellowed a bit (it's impossible to wash them out completely).
At home I shake 3-4 times, at the urinal I just put it back. My brother always shakes it for a long time, although he's the only one with this among our friends. He said to us that we should go back to the kindergarten with our watermarked underpants. Once we fooled each other in the locker with some friends and compared our piss stains. Mines were in average size (1 inch) and a sporty guy won the "competition" whose crotch was completely yellow and half-wet.
I talked with a Northern African guy about this who always wipes the last drops because of his religion. He said that originally washing is prescribed but it's not always possible. According to him shaking is European, in Northern Africa there are two types: many religious guys wash/wipe while the others tuck it away fast without doing anything. He said that the European habit is more practical but more controversial too because being dry is expected after only some shakes. In his school non-religious boys had heavily yellowed underpants which didn't count as an accident like it would in Europe, it was natural and only meant that they didn't keep the rule.
i never realized that this was not only experienced by me, but by all men
I don't understand why can't wait many guys 5-10 more seconds when they finish their job cause it would be more useful than even the shake. I think my friends shake too soon, when it's pointless because they continue dripping after that, or even squirt a bit. Another strange thing is when boys go to the urinal together and some of them can't start pissing so quickly than the others because they're awkwards or I don't know why, so they finish later, when the others have zipped back and fool the slower ones who can't attend to the end, don't shake off etc.
Dear, Dear, Scorpio....call me crazy, but I"m guessing you were home schooled...in West Virginia.
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

I'm European, maybe it seems to be the part of West Virginia from the West Coast...
European... You're-a-peeing... This guy is funny!
Roman legionaires urinated on their bare feet to toughen them up for long marches.
I'd like to toughen Michel Vic's face
The Middle Ages were also strange times. When going to the public bath on the street and during some ceremonies people were completely naked, but touching your own penis was shameful, so either men didn't pee together or they did it without holding the hose.
Pretend you are about to put your friend back, then stop, relax and take a second, that last drip is on its way... give one last wee shake. and tada you've beaten it. I heard a saying one.
No matter how you wiggle and dnace,
the last drop always lands in your pants.
But now it won't! remember to relax and that is the trick. hehe
I have a unique way of getting the last drops out. When I was younger I used the old tried and proven waggle system. Now that I am older and have a bladder that does not properly empty I use a urinary catheter to complete the job. The Veterans Administration has my catheters specially made since normal ones are much to short.
Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
If I had two faces do you think I'd be wearing this one?
Chief! We might be brothers. I have a tattoo. It is on my upper calf. It is of a rooster, with a rope around it's neck. That's correct! I have a cock that hangs below my knee.

Dear Katsat.........Many of the questions you pose ask me about the post urination habits of my pals. I'm afraid that I avoid, with a great deal of dedication, even glancing at their weenies or the pummeling they give them upon completion of their urinary task. . I just can't imagine saying, "just a moment, let me check that thing before you put it up."
Squat........I might add that I do not wear Bermuda shorts.
Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
If I had two faces do you think I'd be wearing this one?
Sorry guys, but I measure two inches..
(from the floor)
Dear ChiefThunderbutt and anybody else who can't/don't want to answer 5., 9. and 11. questions - just leave them out and write only about your own habits! Thanks.
Well guys, you've all been good to me so I'll take one for the team and try to answer Katsat's survey. I'll hang out in one of the Turnpike restrooms and watch everyone pee and shake. I'll interview them about their peeing histories, check their underwear, measure stains, and make suggestions about their peeing habits. I'll hand out Moon Pies to all who participate. Should be a short night.
Wear the Trevor suit...it will help cushion the severe beating you're gonna end up getting.
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

PD.......Sob......sniff.....the moonpie thing has made you a Tennessee folk hero,,,,,thanks buddy!
Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
If I had two faces do you think I'd be wearing this one?
Sorry Bilge, no Trevor suit. I will be going incognito. Baggy polyester gym sweats, sleeveless t-shirt, and gold chains.
Chief, if I don't make it, I want to be cremated with the remaining moonpies. Sorta like a giant s'more.
RC Cola and moon pie. There is a trip down memory lane. Do they still even make RC?
Bought some RC in Shop Rite just the other day.
I have to admit, other than Coca Cola from Mexico (real cane sugar) the RC is my favorite.
Moon pies are available for me at Walmart.
I think the best way to get rid of the last bit of pee is to squeeze and then wipe till there's nothing left.Just like healthy_1 does.
Eureka Shadow. Toilet paper dispensers next to the urinals. Why didn't I think of that.
I said I think that is the best way, I didn't say I or someone should always fallow it.
PD.......If worse comes to worse and your mutilated body is cremated I have a cousin who works in the Moon Pie factory. He can have your ashes mixed in with the filling.
Eat chilies and feel the burn!!
If I had two faces do you think I'd be wearing this one?
If you want to do a new idea, How about "dick diapers." They could be available in 3 sizes. Small, medium, and Chief Thunderbutt. Colors... Could go with different skin tones, or camo and glow in the dark. Instead of all that shaking and wiping, men would be wrapping the package on the counter. For wife's and girlfriends everywhere, every night would be like Christmas.
For Katsat:
1E, 2C, 3C, 4C, 5C, 6E, 7A and 7F, 8B, 9D, 10B, 10E and 10H: once I heard some boys calculating how many hours they save per year by putting it back hastily, they fooled a classmate who liked maths (and was more careful at the urinal).
11D - I never, but my brother once lend me only black boxers, he said I would destroy his tigthy whities.
12A - I was the worst around 14 yrs old when I always zipped back without shaking.
And don't forget:
You will surely do the shake and dance
If you pee on an electrified fence!
I know an emo guy who just tucks his dick away when he's still pissing. It's strange for me because I've never seen anybody else doing this. He wears black pants and boxers which hide stains but I'm sure he has them. The wetness bugs me if I forget to shake, it's cool he doesn't care of it at all.
I'm surprised how many of you guys wrote what Urine Heep above that you can't stand the piss stain in the underpants. I never thought earlier that it could be uncomfortable for males. Maybe it depends on our surroundings - as far as I know Latin boys don't shake. I don't watch just hear the sound that my mates zip back in the second when they finish like me. I think if somebody accept this during his childhood he won't have any problems with it later. That bit leakage don't hurt you, why is it bad?
I run my weinie through the wringer of an old time washing machine. "Look Ma, no pee! No wrinkless either! No grandkids either..."
I still can't believe that 23 percents wipe after pissing. I always thought boys never wipe their dicks and I don't know anybody who would ever miss TP at the urinal. If there are some guys who wipe I don't think they're more than some percents. This forum made me observe my classmates a bit when they're half naked in the locker and I admit it's gross but all of them have stains on their underpants, yellow, damp or both. If I saw one pair of clean boxers, next day that boy had the biggest dampness. I also asked my older brother about his mates and he said that he couldn't shake when they take a piss together because it's embarrassing.
Hi Miguel, I also think that wiping is a bit over-represented here, but if I only look at the relations of the three urinal-type options: shake 27%, trash-squeeze 12% and nothing 31% (together 70%), I can tell they really fit my observations during 3 decades. At the urinal a bit more than the half of lads take care of the drops (27+12=39%, a bit more than 31), and shaking is at least twice as common than squeezing (27 to 12 percents) - it seems to be exact for me according to my memories (I am in the 12% as a quick squeezer/trasher/milker).
I can even take them apart: about every third shakers do it for a long time, so about 9% do even more than 10 shakes, while the others usually keep the 3 shakes rule (for me it's the 2 milks rule). The undie stainer 31% has two main groups: the bigger half of them (around 17%) wait for some drops dripping down without shaking before tucking away, so sometimes they're more careful than some dudes who shake too soon. For the fastest 14% pissing is a speed race so these boys usually wear soaked underpants from the last spurts. Of course these are only my estimates based on memories.
So what about the too many wipers? Maybe more men use the stall for pee like we would think, Miguel. Another solution is we both have occurances mainly of windy younger dudes' habits, especially in schools. And in schools or anywhere else when there are young guys of the same age together, a boy never wipes his penis if he don't want to be an extreme odd. Never. I can tell you it's the same in the whole world except for the muslim countries where wiping or even using water is a (frequently ignored) rule. So don't ever think they're cleaner, even one shake can be queer (you know it's pursued there) so if there is no TP or water, boys finish fastest right there.
In every other countries shakes are permitted (in continental Europe even without count, in the Anglo-American countries 2-3 shakes), but shaking can be uncool in many lad groups anywhere. It's typical in the Far East, especially in Indochina (based on older web forums on this) where shaking is less accepted and dudes are less embarrassed of wearing yellowed undies than usual, some even use them as a symbol of masculinity wearing the dirtiest pair and dribble the most on purpose for locker showing on the days when they have PE.
In Latin America guys become careless mainly because of the tropical weather which can cause so much sweating that they have spots everywhere with or without that one. I know that many lads wear two underpants in these countries to at least minimize the sweat stain on the jeans butt etc., so shaking the drops is not a strategical problem if you have 2X2 sweaty layers under your pants.
In contrast to Latin men, Russian and other Slavic boys don't use the two underpants version, although they would need it more because of hard winters. In Eastern Europe group pressure is a typical risk of health, cigarettes and alcohol cause higher male mortality than female. Many guys wear a summer-type pair of undies in the coldest weather - for example one layered boxers - , as a part of the stupid "I'm not cold because I'm tough" story. If you add the tendency of spurting the end of piss in them when boys take a circle piss - well, some blokes must be careful not to break down their magnetic needles before they defrost at home. Boys don't change their peeing style by the seasons - some of them are always careful, while others are always fast.
I experienced that the pee stain is a gender symbol for kids and adolescents when the personality needs more confirmation than later. Although it's just a myth that girls are always clean - they dribble more from biological causes - the stereotype hints they're dry because they usually wipe while boys don't. I experienced that most shakers want only minimize the stain's size, but not avoid the stain itself. During the sexual awakening outer gender marks are highly important, and they aren't separable enough from the essential marks. For many kids the yellow stains belong to the willy like the red fingernails belong to girls. (Fetishes also based on gender marks as we know). The man's sexual role is the letting out, while the woman's is the reception. Boys' stains symbolizes the ability of letting out, while girls' ones disturbes this system of signs because letting out is not their role. The missing of an outer mark can also be a disturbing crossgender thing for teens, and because the difference between gays and transsexuals is still not known enough, they can say wiping is pansy although it's not true.
So we can't judge the wipers percentage only based on our school memories.
I'd love to know where this guy gets his figures from....and how the hell he didn't get the shit kicked out of himself trying to obtain those figures. I wanna punch him in the face just thinking he may have been watching me piss.
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

Bilgepump, I still didn't expect that you would be the first person who offer a gay bashing to me in my life. Very nice. THE NUMBERS ARE ON THE TOP OF THIS PAGE where you are now, you only can't see them if you haven't voted the poll yet (please do it and see the results! 1051 men answered yet). Actually this discussion is about them, and not about writing silly jokes for each other. I just compared the statistics here with the memories which everybody has. You don't need to directly watch a schoolmate or a guy at a public urinal more than 2 seconds to know what does he do at the end, and I can tell you that my classmates always watched me much more when we took a piss than I watched them, mainly because they were so curious about the only maybe-gay boy's habits they knew.
They discussed their pissing methods with me like they would thought I knew more about penises than them. A shaker proudly said he shakes well, not as slob as his quick zipper mates with pee spurts in their briefs etc. Teenboys can be really funny. The urinal wasn't enough for them, they climbed up the partition of stalls and stood on the neigbour stalls to watch if I poop or piss in there so I pooped with 4 faces above me because they couldn't believe I also peed standing. I can't say I would like to punch them in their face, because they always were and always will be in numerical superiority - 94% straight to 3% gay, 2% lesbian and 1% bi&tra. These are the biological conditions of the human race.
I have never lurked around urinals, I just spent 25 years in educational institutions and you know, gays are also used to piss. I am sure if you would have spent 3X1 minutes among partly naked girls since Reagan's years till nowadays on every schoolday plus two breaks in the girls locker 2X3 times a week, you would've had some observations about them even if you weren't fixing them constantly.
Staying with percentages, about 75% of my comment was based on about 10 shorter forums which discussed the same topic from different countries of the world, both gay and common forums, I just summarized them here, on the largest central one. Or did you think I traveled around the world for this? Finally the end of the comment was a parody of developmental psychology which used to be homophobic sometimes so fooling it is something like a hobby for me.
Don't take it personally, you aren't that goddamn special, I'd hit anyone staring at me while I pissed, gay or straight, so lighten up. As far as taking these poll figures seriously...come on, surely you aren't using that for REAL data? And your hobby...well...good luck with that.
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

CAC Summary for Dec. 12, 2007
The New US 31 Plymouth to South Bend Community Advisory Committee (CAC) met for the first time on Dec. 12 at the Lakeville Public Library. The focus of the first CAC meeting was the project's communication process – past, present and future.
The CAC suggested that, moving forward, the project team hold more than one public open house to better accommodate crowds and address specific questions. The group also suggested increasing the use of various forms of media to advertise meetings, in addition to the current policy of providing legal advertisements and news releases. One specific change which will take place immediately is the distribution of the project newsletter through the Lunar Echo in Lakeville.
Following questions from the group, an updated list of Frequently Asked Questions will be posted on the Web site by February.

Mines hosts leading carbon sequestration researchers during Risk Assessment meeting
GOLDEN, Colo., May 17, 2010 – Colorado School of Mines is hosting the 5th Annual Risk Assessment Network meeting of the International Energy Agency Greenhouse Gas Research and Development Programme (IEAGHG) today and tomorrow in Golden.
The meeting allows scientists and research community leaders from around the world to discuss risks associated with the geologic storage of carbon dioxide. The Risk Assessment Network has several subgroups focusing on more specific subject areas: data management and risk analysis, regulatory engagement and environmental impacts.
IEAGHG is an international collaborative research program established in 1991 as an implementing agreement under the International Energy Agency.
The meeting was organized and coordinated by Dag Nummedal, director of the Colorado Energy Research Institute (CERI) at Mines and George Sherk, CERI managing director and joint-appointee with the International Performance Assessment Centre for the geologic storage of carbon dioxide (IPAC-CO2).
Roel Sneider, W.M. Keck Distinguished Professor of Basic Exploration Science in the Department of Geophysics at Mines, and Jen Schneider, assistant professor in Mines' Division of Liberal Arts and International Studies, participated as experts on risk communication. Vaughan Griffiths, professor of civil engineering at Mines, spoke as an expert on risk assessment
IPAC-CO2, a nonprofit research and development organization committed to providing independent, objective information, best practices, advice and assessments to governments and industry, is providing technical support for the IEAGHG Risk Assessment Network.

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
A very old, sexy, dark tequila bar hidden behind thick, red curtains in an unassuming storefront on West Third Street near Fairfax, El Carmen has a Mexican wrestling motif on the curved ceiling — and, beneath it, one of the best happy hours in the city. The deliciously tart house margaritas would be shockingly good even if they weren't a mere $5 — no sickly sweet sour mix here — and you can't help but love the idea of a $3 Tecate in this pricey city. But it's the food that really sets El Carmen apart: From 5 to 7 p.m., a quesadilla is just $4; guacamole, $2; and a combo plate of two tacos (carnitas or chicken), plus rice and beans, just $5. You'd pay more for fast food. And did we mention this place is way cooler — and tastier — than McDonald's? The regular menu is worth checking out, too, if rock-bottom bargains aren't your thing. 8138 W. Third St., Fairfax District. (323) 852-1552, elcarmenrestaurant.com.

There are plenty of warm, welcoming cigar emporiums around L.A., but Buena Vista Cigar Club stands apart, with its secret lodge/hideout ambience and the superior attention to detail of its proprietor/bartender Rigoberto Fernandez, whose roots go back to some of the best Cuban cigar manufacturers. Occupying an older structure on Little Santa Monica in Beverly Hills, the place is a dark, calming clubhouse decorated in what we like to think of as traditional Cuban gentleman/sportsman style. There's lots of wood, some antlers, several old skis, interesting historical photos and even a few stuffed ducks. It has very high ceilings and a partial upstairs level that offers an even greater feeling of privacy. Or sit at the bar and order a stiff, manly drink from Rigo, who, if not literally the Most Interesting Man in the World, at least comes close — and he'll connect you with a fantastic, handpicked cigar at a quite reasonable price. For several gentle hours, you could swear you're no longer in Beverly Hills but rather in Old World Havana. 9715 Santa Monica Blvd., Beverly Hills. (310) 273-8100, buenavistacigarclub.com.

You sit at a neighborly bar where small-plate orders are made up right in front of you, chatting with the especially nice bartenders who oversee Bin 73, a sleek little find amidst the loud Venice Fishing Pier bars and tourist traps. Bin 73's carefully selected wine list, great deals on wine flights and truly generous pours — not to mention the friendly offers of free sips before you choose your wine — help to fill most seats by 6 p.m. During happy hour, the covered sidewalk patio is the spot for people watching. Popular edibles, matched to your big glass of wine, include flatbread pizza topped with caramelized vegetables, mac 'n' cheese and fresh grapes rolled in crushed walnuts and goat cheese. After Bin 73, you may find your usual (perhaps ridiculously expensive) wine bar a bit stingy and stuffy. 18 Washington Blvd., Marina del Rey. (310) 827-6209, mercedesgrille.com/bin73.htm.

Those who have visited this second incarnation of wildly popular sausage purveyor Wurstküche on a Friday night or Saturday lunch might be bowled over by the suggestion of "quiet." Prime time is marked by lines out the door for food, a deejay bolstering the alternative-club atmosphere and communal tables packed with Venice's finest flannel. Come after the lunch rush but before the dinner masses and the ambience changes entirely. Exposed brick protects you from the oppressive traffic of Lincoln Boulevard. A peripheral glance at the frosted-glass windows will have you mistaking a blazing summer day for a cozy winter afternoon. Sample a rattlesnake-and-rabbit sausage and any of five mustards that accompany it. Take a long quaff from your dimpled mug of Spaten Optimator and try to convince yourself that you're not in the pages of a Dwell magazine Bavarian-lodge spread. Nothing is more satisfying than genuine conversation with the bartender and a leisurely perusal of the rare beer list in off-peak hours. 625 Lincoln Blvd., Venice. (213) 687-4444, wurstkuche.com. —Erika Bolden
Of the many establishments that provide an above-average selection of whiskey and cocktails, Glendale's Neat Bar offers perhaps the best value. Attend during peak hours and you'll be subjected to the same industry-standard prices maintained by all comparable bars, but stop by during happy hour and feel that pinching knot in your shoulders begin to loosen. Between 5 and 7:30 p.m. on weekdays, the prices of 300 meticulously appointed spirits are reduced by half. From whiskey to tequila, all available drinks arrive in Neat's signature spirit-and-chaser presentation. Contrary to the current trend in mixology toward pretentious eyedroppers and overwrought foams, these drinks enable an appreciation for the undiluted quality of the booze. The deconstruction allows you to pick up on flavor interactions you might not notice in a mixed cocktail. Lowering prices so considerably in off-peak hours almost feels like a personal favor, permitting even those of us with ramen-noodle budgets to sample those coveted single malts and blends. 1114 N. Pacific Ave., Glendale. (818) 241-4542, facebook.com/theneatbar.

There's a mad-scientist vibe to many modern cocktails, and often it can lead to weird science. How to make a drink that's not just a remix of the classics without veering into the cocktail version of fusion? The flavors probably shouldn't go together, but let's try it anyway! (Wine milkshake, anyone?) The folks at Pour Vous, the newish Hollywood cocktail lounge, get it right by looking for flavors that absolutely belong together but maybe haven't waltzed subtly in a glass before. This is a dance you don't want to miss: The Lapin Fou pairs eau de vie with carrot, ginger, lemon and the sweet herbal cordial Velay Jaune for a drink that tastes like you're standing in the middle of a spring vegetable patch. L'Avenue Nouvelle gives passion fruit a place to shine without too much sweetness; its partners of Calvados, bourbon and lemon lift it up in a tart, fruity but delicate drink. Pour Vous does twists on the classics as well — and does them beautifully — but it's the totally original creations that have us proclaiming notre amour. 5574 Melrose Ave., Hlywd. (323) 871-8699, pourvousla.com.

Chartiers Valley diver wins 3rd consecutive WPIAL crown
For the third time in as many years, Chartiers Valley junior Maria Lohman stood atop the podium Saturday at the WPIAL diving championships.
After becoming the first diver to finish first in consecutive years —and in different classifications, when the Colts moved up to Class AAA last year — Lohman was ecstatic to defend her title at North Allegheny.
"It's really exciting," she said. "I'm thrilled that I dove as well as I did today because in recent years, I haven't performed my best at WPIALs. But this year I dove really solid, and that was the goal."
Lohman clinched the title after executing her final dive with a score of 52.8 and a 2.2 degree of difficulty. That dive propelled Lohman to a total score of 540.15, a mark that has plenty of personal significance for her.
"I think this one is unique, because I had my personal best score by a lot," she said. "So I was really excited about today."
Lohman, along with Fox Chapel's Miranda Simon (runner-up) and Emily Eames, Julia Vespoli of North Allegheny, Brionna Litwin of Bethel Park and Mt. Lebanon's Kalli Bicket, advanced to the PIAA championships March 12-15 at Bucknell University.
Lohman enters the state meet as defending champion after finishing second as a freshman in Class AA. She will look to draw on that experience at Bucknell next month.
"The experience definitely is going to help me," she said. "I'm looking to improve my lift a little more, sharpen up and get a better score at states."
In the boys competition, North Hills senior Noah Bostick improved upon his second-place finish from a year ago to win the title.
"I knew what I needed to do to win first. I knew people expected me to win first, but I didn't really think about it much," he said.
Bostick's inward two-and-a-half dive in his final attempt earned him a score of 55.80 with a 3.1 degree of difficulty, the highest of any dive over the past two days at the WPIAL Class AAA and AA championship meets.
"I just got it last week," Bostick said of his winning dive. "It's one of the harder dives in the competition. I think I was the only one that did it today."
Bostick, who will run track at Slippery Rock University next year, was able to move up on the podium each of the past three years after winning bronze as a sophomore and silver a year ago.
"I've been working hard — especially this year, (after) we got a new coach (Erik Moore)," Bostick said. "It's just a total different outlook on things, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out."
Andrew Doerfler (North Allegheny), Joey Ference (Penn-Trafford), Cary Johns (Mt. Lebanon), Addison Lynch (Fox Chapel) and Andrew Sederholm (Franklin Regional) rounded out the top six and will join Bostick at the PIAA meet.

Drug Crime Information
The Saline County Attorney's Office believes in taking a tough, aggressive, intelligent stance on the interdiction of drug cases and their prosecution. In terms of investigations, the County Attorney's Office works very closely with all law enforcement agencies, including the DEA, FBI and ATF. Primary contact is generally with local law enforcement, but centers on working the I-135/I-70 Drug Task Force.
The Saline County Attorney's Office aids law enforcement in the careful execution of investigation through being eligible for consultation on investigations 24 hours a day, each day of the year including all holidays.
Drugs are one of the most pervasive and systemic problems in society. Generally drug addiction, use and abuse are responsible for contribution to other crimes such as thefts, forgeries, robberies, burglaries and even homicides.
While assisting in aggressive investigation and prosecution of drug crimes, the overall crime level should decrease. Incarceration for serious drug crimes is generally appropriate. However, the County Attorney's Office believes in attempting to reform individuals through opportunities at drug and alcohol treatment to assist in the prevention of an offender reoffending. This has also been the trend of state law, through the requirement of mandatory drug treatment programs and incarceration for failure to comply.
By reforming the addict, many other problems related to crime will decrease. However, an individual's failure to take responsibility for themselves is never received well by the prosecutor or the Courts.
Ridding drugs from this jurisdiction should not only be an effort by law enforcement agencies. We rely on the citizens to help us identify problems as they arise. If you note any of the following:
(Manufacturers of methamphetamine will travel into remote rural areas at times to "cook" their meth. They may often leave behind chemically hazardous waste products that are deadly or toxic if inhaled, explosive, flammable or caustic to the touch.);
Contact CrimeStoppers at (785) 825-8477 (TIPS), the Salina Police Department or I-135/I-70 Drug Task Force at (785) 826-7210, the Saline County Sheriff's Department at: (785) 826-6500, or call 911.
The County Attorney's Office is proud to stand on the front line of the war on drugs. However, it is a community effort. Help us help you. Call law enforcement if you suspect a problem, and know when someone is apprehended, the County Attorney's Office will persue prosecution.

ohhh that shot with the scarf… whoa!
holy hotness!! Such gorgeous shots!
Next time i'm in Cali – I'm booking a shoot.
So simple. So perfect.
We drove to Palm Springs for Kristin & Alex's engagement session on a beautiful Friday. Problem was, everyone else in California was on the road that day too. By the time we arrived, the sun was quickly setting. Luckily, it didn't matter. Can you believe they rocked this session in like, 35 minutes? Kristin & Alex flow that well together. This is only part I. I can't wait to shoot part II in April and their wedding shortly after. Definitely such a fun couple to be around!
Um…..LOVE. 35 minutes!? You're magic.
35 minutes is rockstar material! So beautiful!
Totally gorgeous as usual!! Loving the new blog look as well. You nail it everytime! x
hot damn! Gorgeous couple, images and that dreamy sunset light. You + them…35 minutes was obvi all you needed.
Sometimes I post a full wedding, sometimes I post just one image but it's always something that inspires me. Julia's veil was so much fun to shoot so I had to share a few photographs.
Yeah, that first shot is portfolio worthy

Downtown Clarkesville Fire Remains Under Investigation
Investigators are still working to try to figure out what caused the fire that damaged several businesses on the square in downtown Clarkesville last week.
Georgia Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner's Office Spokesman Glenn Allen said that investigators took samples from the scene of the fire and have sent those to the crime lab for analysis.
Allen said those results may be back this week.
Last week's fire started late last Wednesday night and lasted into the early morning hours Thursday as numerous departments worked to put out the blaze.
The Northeast Georgian newspaper reported that the fire started at Sweet Breads Cafe on East Water Street before spreading.
That report from the Northeast Georgian went on to say that the buildings housing Sharky's Sports Grill, Edward Jones, Parker Place Antiques, the Soque River Watershed Association, and Natalie Jane's Tavern were all damaged.
Nobody was injured in the fire.
Meanwhile, accessnorthga.com reports that firefighters again responded to downtown Clarkesville Saturday night.
This time, there was a fire in the neon marquee of the Habersham Theater in Clarkesville, just off of the Square, according to the accessnorthga.com report.
The report stated that the fire was extinguished quickly.

After spending the holidays munching on cookies while curled up by the fire with old Buster, it's finally time to make your way out of the comforts of mom's home cooking and back into the adventure that is dorm life. Moving back in after winter break is surely easier than it was in September, making it a breeze to look good while carrying those heavy boxes full of sweaters. I ran into this Fashionisto in my hometown the day before classes started at the University of Kentucky as he was heading into his house with an armful of duffel bags.
You cannot miss his 100 percent lambswool winter sweater. Instead of complaining about the below freezing temperatures, borrow this Fashionisto's ironic smirk and welcome it, with a side of sarcasm of course. The attitude appeals to the "go-to-hell" preppy aesthetic with its playful critter prints and bold colours. This Fashionisto's look is a more subtle version that does play with prints, while keeping the colours more subdued with browns and dark greens.
The whimsical print of his sweater is toned down by a simple jean, perfectly tailored. It's not only women that struggle to find the perfect fit. Find one that is a happy medium between the skinny-girlfriend-jeans and the baggy-1990s-boyband version for a clean-cut look. Naked and Famous has three different fits. Try the SlimGuy cut in Raised Selvedge.
The outfit is then finished off with Clark's Originals Desert Boots in sand suede. This boot is a staple to any wardrobe paired with warm wool socks — easy to pull on and off, and perfect for when you want to look put together on more casual days.
Playfulness and warmth are key for this outfit. Clean details with a tinge of irony are what you need for safe travels back into your cozy dorm, and you'd still look good for the new girl that just moved in across the hall.
One Simple Change: If the printed sweater is a little too bold for your taste, try it peeking out under a jacket for a look that is equally great for meeting with a professor.

Profit reporting season might be weeks away but investors could get a sneak peek at what resource companies are doing, as the bulk of December quarter production reports are due this week from high-profile names such as BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Fortescue Metals.
The first heavyweight to report will be Rio Tinto on Tuesday. Rio's coal operations are expected to be adversely affected in the quarter because of high rainfall during the period in Queensland and NSW.
Iron ore production in Western Australia should have continued uninterrupted over the period and investors will be looking for a number in excess of 200 million tonnes.
Copper production is forecast by UBS to be flat, quarter on quarter, though there might be lower production at the miner's Escondida project.
Rio said production from the mine would be down 5 to 10 per cent over the year but it is unclear which quarters will be affected. In the company's aluminium division production is forecast to rise 2 per cent, quarter on quarter.
Shares in Rio Tinto had a solid 2010, adding 14.1 per cent.
Fortescue Metals is also reporting its quarterly results on Tuesday. December quarter iron ore production is expected to be about 10 million tonnes, on track to meet its 40 million tonne production target for fiscal 2011. Shares in Fortescue finished up 47.3 per cent last year.
BHP Billiton's results on Thursday are expected to show a drop in coal production from Queensland and South Africa – both affected by unseasonably high rainfall. UBS estimates that production from the two regions mightd have fallen by as much as 30 per cent over the quarter.
Iron ore production is tipped to be at near-record levels after the boost to its RGP 4 operation in Western Australia. But oil and gas might turn in a sub-par performance due to a slowdown in Gulf of Mexico production.
Aluminium production is expected to have increased in the quarter. However, copper production could be down due to lower output from the company's Escondida joint venture project with Rio Tinto. Shares in the world's biggest mining company advanced 4.9 per cent last year, rallying hard into Christmas following the failed Canadian potash deal.
Kingsgate releases its results on Wednesday. Production for the quarter is forecast to be about 27,000 ounces at a cash cost of $670 a ounce.
Copper miners OZ Minerals and PanAust also release December production figures on Thursday. PanAust's copper production is forecast to hit 18,000 tonnes for the quarter, while gold production should come in at about 20,000 ounces.
OZ Minerals is tipped to produce 26,000 tonnes of copper and 47,000 ounces of gold over the same period.
Other mining companies reporting this week include Mount Gibson and Whitehaven Coal on Friday. UBS is forecasting Mount Gibson's iron ore production to have risen by 17 per cent over the quarter to 1.7 million tonnes.
Whitehaven has already forecast 10 per cent production growth for the quarter.
Outside the resources sector, MAp Group releases December traffic numbers on Thursday and Sydney Airport Corporation will be releasing its full year results. Investors will also be continuing to keep a close eye on any trading updates from companies affected by the Queensland floods.

We love the Stool and want to know what you can treat the leather on the seat with to keep it from drying out.
This is in a sunny area and we want to preserve the beauty.
Thank you for your interest in the Borneo Bar Stool. We recommend cleaning it with saddle soap and then treat it with oil. Don't use any sort of industrial cleaner on leather unless it is specifically designed for that type of fabric. Saddle soap is the easiest and safest option if you have tougher stains or dirt.

Associate Professor and then Professor, University of California, Davis, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering, 1987 to present.
Assistant Professor and then Associate Professor, Massachusetts, Institute of Technology, EECS Dept., 1979-1987
Graduate Group in Electrical and Computer Engineering
Graduate Group in Applied Mathematics
Research Interests
Estimation, detection, statistical signal processing, signal processing for communications, equalization, space-time array processing, blind system identification, signal processing for A/D converter calibration. Multidimensional signal processing, imaging, and inverse problems.
Research Activities
In recent years, Prof. Levy has examined robust estimation, filtering, equalization and detection problems. The objective of this research is to develop signal processing techniques which are insensitive to modeling errors. The viewpoint adopted is to place a relative entropy bound on modeling errors and formulate estimation problems as minimax problems. In the estimation and filtering case, the optimum solutions take the form of risk sensitive filters.
Prof. Levy has also investigated the application of multirate DSP and statistical signal processing techniques to the digital correction of analog circuit imperfections. In particular, he has examined the blind calibration and correction of timing and bandwidth mismatches for time-interleaved
ADCs, and the calibration of ADC nonlinearities.
He has also studied signal processing problems, such as precoding, equalization, and space-time array processing for MIMO wireless communications.

A common theme for those that are considering/have had rhinoplasty is having thought about it for a very long time. It has been over 10 years for me at least. Aesthetically, my nose is noticeably crooked (from the front view), and has a fairly large bump on it. I've never been comfortable having photos taken, even on my wedding day (thanks to a great photographer, those turned out well, lol). The septum (inside my nose) is twisted so far that it is blocking a good portion of one side.
That is all going to change next month. I definitely feel a little nervous, but I would say that I am much more excited about the final result than anything else. I'm also really thankful that I found this site, with so many amazing people on it who've shared their experiences and stories. It has prepared me for what to expect leading up to the surgery and afterwards. THANK YOU!

Well, just over a week until my surgery, so I...
Thought I would upload a pic of my post surgery...
-Lip balms
-Gravol (generic, 50 mg Dimenhydrinate tablets)
-Dry shampoo (as I understand washing your hair with water isn't recommended for several days after surgery)
-Flexible straws
-Cotton swabs
-Hydrogen peroxide
-Polysporin ointment (or generic antiseptic/antibacterial ointment)
-Saline solution sinus rinse (I like the NeilMed sinus rinse, reusable bottles and salt packets included. Don't use tap water! You'll need to boil water and let it cool for use with this rinse. It works great when you have a sinus cold too, double packs are available at Costco.)
-Arnica gel for topical application on bruised areas (Traumeel gel bought at the health food store)
-Paper tape (my surgeon had me commit to wearing paper tape on my nose every single night for a year to help with the healing process, lol, I'm going to need a lot more than one roll!)
-Facial wipes (I understand from reading other's experiences that the face can get really greasy and acne can come on easily after surgery)
-Bottle of witch hazel (a natural astringent for the facial skin)
-Cotton balls
-Benadryl (or generic, 50mg diphenhydramine hydrochloride)
-Gauze pads to be used as drip pads after surgery
***Disclaimer: The medications/supplements were prescribed for me. Always follow the directions provided to you by your surgeon or doctor for post-recovery medications, supplements, and procedures. Everyone is different.
I made it through, but have been having a tough...
As far as discomfort, it is pretty accurate to say that it basically feels like the worst sinus cold you've every had. I have been unable to take the Tylenol 3 for pain management; I tried half of one and fainted, and this occurred on day 3 post surgery. My throat has been so sore from the breathing tube being in there that I can barely eat anything. Tea with honey seems to be providing some relief now. Crushed ice is good too, but only soothes for a very short time. Any food that is salty or acidic burns and dairy isn't recommended due to the mucus that it produces.
I'm sure that everything will continue to improve, but it is really hard for me right now. I will post pictures so that you can see how the bruising and swelling has been going, it is gradually moving down my face. Any suggestions people have for good post-surgery foods would be appreciated, along with suggestions for how to set yourself up comfortably to sleep.
It has been about a week and a half since my last...
I selected Dr. Kristina Zakhary to perform the procedure because she specializes in facial plastic surgery. I feel very comfortable with her skill level as a doctor and surgeon working on a challenging nose (mine), as well as with her personable manner. She is great to talk with, she listens, and explains the procedure, risks, and outcomes in detail. She welcomes any questions or concerns you may have. Her staff are sensitive and very courteous. You can expect to receive reminder messages so that appointments are confirmed and re-confirmed. Kelsey is one of her patient care coordinators and is always very friendly and supportive. All of the surgical staff at the hospital were amazing, Erin, Kelsey, and Juby, and the anaesthesiologist (cannot remember his name!) From my experience, Dr. Zakhary has a thriving and well-managed practice. I would strongly recommend her to others looking to have rhinoplasty surgery.
