Column: Gregory House M.D.: RIP
Dr. Gregory House hung up his stethoscope and cane for the last time Monday night and shuffled off into eternal life in the Land of Reruns. House — the brilliant, misanthropic, drug-addicted, my-way-or-the-highway physician — has been an entertaining presence on Fox television since 2004. I enjoyed the series and even learned a little medicine. I also took some pride in the show because House was television's first hospitalist, a term I helped coin and now the fastest-growing specialty in modern medicine.
In addition to its own editorials, USA TODAY publishes a variety of opinions from outside writers. On political and policy matters, we publish opinions from across the political spectrum.
Roughly half of our columns come from our Board of Contributors, a group whose interests range from education to religion to sports to the economy. Their charge is to chronicle American culture by telling the stories, large and small, that collectively make us what we are.
We also publish weekly columns by Al Neuharth, USA TODAY's founder, and DeWayne Wickham, who writes primarily on matters of race but on other subjects as well. That leaves plenty of room for other views from across the nation by well-known and lesser-known names alike.
But as entertaining as he was, House was a throwback to an era in which the antisocial tendencies of some physicians were seen as irrelevant to their doctoring. As medical leaders strive to redefine "the great doctor" of today, House's departure is both timely and welcome.
When I went to medical school in the 1980s, many of us valued nothing more than our autonomy. We saw medicine as an individual, not a team, sport, and interpreted professionalism as unwavering advocacy for our patients. Though this was often healthy and noble, in some cases it crossed the line into obnoxiousness, even rage. Today, we call doctors who cross this line "disruptive physicians." Dr. House would certainly qualify.
Hospitals were co-dependent. All too aware of their heavy reliance on the physicians' control over their revenue stream, hospital administrators learned to coddle doctors, with everything from prime parking spots to a personalized menu of surgical equipment. This kept the doctors happy, but also led to wildly expensive and sometimes risky variations in practice, even within the same institution.
Dysfunctional behavior
This reliance also made everyone tiptoe around the dysfunctional behaviors that Dr. House so memorably illustrated each week. In a 2002 survey of 720 nurses by medical network VHA West Coast, 96% reported seeing doctors engaging in disruptive behavior, and almost half pointed to fear of retribution as the reason such acts went unreported. The network's 2005 survey found that one in four doctors and nurses believe that disruptive behaviors are associated with preventable deaths.
I agree, having seen cases in which a scrub nurse or physician trainee suspected that a senior doctor was about to commit a terrible error but kept quiet rather than risk the physician's ire.
Former secretary of State Henry Kissinger once observed that "weakness is provocative." When it comes to taking decisive steps to address the problem of disruptive doctors, we have been both weak and provocative. The reasons are several and knotty. We doctors are not schooled in managing confrontation, and we're particularly timid when asked to judge the behaviors of our colleagues under our system of "peer review." Moreover, we worry about being sued if we act decisively against another physician.
Gifted clinical skills?
Another reason goes to the heart of House's widespread appeal: Patients seem to believe that the Gregory Houses of the world must have terrific clinical skills, whether in performing brain surgery or diagnosing a rare case of strongyloidiasis. While House did have Sherlock Holmesian diagnostic acumen, the insider's secret is this: Great doctors are skilled at both medicine and teamwork. Patients shouldn't have to choose one or the other.
Spurred by the patient safety movement, the medical community is addressing the problem of antisocial doctors. Gerald Hickson, M.D., of Vanderbilt University Medical Center has created a program that begins with a "cup-of-coffee conversation" but escalates to the loss of hospital privileges for physicians who fail to respond to education and counseling.
In my own hospital, we have dismissed several physicians over the past few years for behavior that I'm certain would have been tolerated a generation ago. These are wrenching decisions, but ultimately correct ones.
While we're getting better, we are still not where we need to be. Hospital peer review committees are only partially shielded from lawsuits, which creates a chilling effect. Options for counseling aimed at improving the behavior of disruptive doctors are limited. And doctors released from one hospital for behavioral problems are generally able to continue practicing in other settings, even if their behavior hasn't changed.
Over the past decade, we have come to realize that, for all its miracles, the American health care system produces uneven, error-prone and back-breakingly expensive care. These problems are complex and require an array of solutions, ranging from computerization to standardization, from simulation training to patient engagement.
But we also need physicians who are smart, well-trained, innovative, intensely focused on delivering the best care to their patients, and who can play well with others. While House had many of these skills, the teamwork part was his fatal flaw. If he worked for me, I would have fired him, somewhere around Season 3.
So rest in peace, Dr. House. Thanks for being in our lives for these past eight years.
And thanks for leaving.
Robert M. Wachter is a professor of medicine at the University of California-San Francisco, author ofUnderstanding Patient Safety, 2nd Edition, and chair-elect of the American Board of Internal Medicine.

Childs, Millard Lee II
Heaven is plus one master grower and pipeline welder today. His loving,
heavenly father reached His arms out from heaven and welcomed His loving
servant, Millard Lee Childs II, 86, home on Thursday, April 15, 2010. A
lifetime resident of Hot Springs, he passed away peacefully at St. Joseph's
Born March 2, 1924, in Hot Springs, Arkansas, to Millard and Mabel Childs, he was a member of Jessieville Church of God. He was predeceased by both of his parents, his brother Lehman Childs and his daughter-in-law Judy Childs.
Survivors include his wife of 67 years, Purity Childs; three sons and two daughters-in-law, Millard III and Patty Childs of Dardanelle; Steve Childs of Bonnerdale, and Jeff and Paula Childs of Hot Springs; seven grandchildren, Nick Childs of Springdale, Richard Childs of Springdale, Michelle Sharp of Russelleville, Melissa White of Hot Springs Village, Willie Childs of St. Paul, Jonathan Childs of Conway and Andrew Childs of Fayetteville; nine great grand-children and one great-great grandchild.
Millard was blessed with a driven work ethic and creative hands. He excelled at many things including growing, gardening, and pipeline welding. These occupations allowed Millard to live his life to its fullest and utilize the talents entrusted to him by His Lord – whether it was cultivating tomatoes and okra in one of his homegrown gardens or welding many an item – including one he was most proud to be a part of creating – "The Anchor Holds" - a welded chain wrapped around a bronze cross anchored in rock which symbolized both the place his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ held in his life and his favorite Bible verses – Romans 8:38-39. Millard was a very giving man and it is said that if we could line up everyone that he helped over his lifetime – whether it was delivering groceries to a person in need or mowing a neighbor's yard – that the line would be extremely long.
Millard proudly served his country in the U.S. Army during World War II from 1943 to 1945.
Pallbearers are Millard's grandchildren and nephews.
Honorary pallbearers are Pastor Billy Sanders, Jessieville Church of God, Dr. Tom Hollis, Sr., and his coffee shop buddies.

The bipartisan measure passed 67-32, wrapping together the day-to-day budgets for 10 Cabinet departments and military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The House passed the bill Friday.
It provides details to a budget pact reached last summer, holding the Pentagon to the smallest increase in recent memory while imposing modest cuts on most domestic agencies.
The Senate also passed legislation Saturday that would extend a Social Security payroll tax cut and jobless benefits for just two months, setting the stage for the next fight until February.
While a partial victory for President Obama's year-end jobs agenda, the measure (which awaits House approval next week) contains a provision demanded by Republicans to pressure the White House into approving construction of a Canada-to-Texas oil pipeline that promises thousands of jobs.

Frozen Cocktails for Summer
Frozen Lemon Sparklers
Frozen lemonade is best when there's some vodka added to it. Try this delicious recipe for a Frozen Lemon Sparkler. read more »
When the weather turns scorching hot, and all you want is a cold beverage to cool you down (and give you a much-needed boozy kick), then look no further than these delicious frozen cocktails.
When the weather turns scorching hot, and all you want is a cold beverage to cool you down (and give you a much-needed boozy kick), then look no further than these delicious frozen cocktails.
Blended with ice, frozen fruit or even ice cream, these delicious concoctions are the perfect way to quench your thirst (literally and figuratively) this summer. So get out the blender, and get inspired to make one of these frozen favorites.
Two of the biggest frozen drinks that come to mind are frozen margaritas and strawberry daiquiris. But forget those commercial pull-down machines that dispense a chemical-filled concoction; these homemade recipes are infinitely better! Try this Frozen Cherry Lime Margarita recipe, inspired by the delicious slush from Sonic. For a clearner (and tastier) strawberry daiquiri, our Kitchen Living expert Coryanne Ettiene has her signature recipe, and three unique variations!
Pina Coladas are always a summer hit, and this Orange Creamsicle Pina Colada adds in some orange sherbet and coconut milk for a thick and creamy adult beverage that's more like a dessert than a drink (which is totally fine by us!).
Another dessert-like option are these Adult Root Beer Floats. With a hefty scoop of ice cream (and some vanilla vodka!), this dessert drink is perfect for any occasion. Seriously.
As a kid, frozen lemonade was the best. But now that we are all adults, we can add in some vodka and really enjoy a grown-up frozen cocktail, like these Frozen Lemon Sparklers. Extra bonus if served with a fun straw!

An 8'–wide covered porch that leads to the front door also opens to a large (20' wide by 12' deep) screened porch next to it that spans the rest of the front of the house, just outside the living room. The entryway is visually delineated by three columns supporting wide beams at the ceiling, with a low (42") wall between it and the dining area, and a large oval window in the outer wall. The living room is just to your left. Like all of the rooms on this level, the ceiling is set at a lofty 10'. There's a centrally–located fireplace flanked by built–ins on the far wall, and four pairs of glazed doors – three that open out to the front screened porch, and another that opens to the covered porch – that provide abundant natural light and views.
As you enter the dining area there are stairs to the upper level, a powder room, and a coat closet on your left. The dining room is open to the kitchen, and features four tall windows for light and views. The kitchen has a center island with a range on top, and a raised bar for casual eating or serving, and an entire wall is devoted to a pantry with four pairs of doors. A pocket door opens to a large utility and laundry room at the rear of the house that can also be accessed from the rear of the house.
The rest of the main level is devoted to the master suite. A door between the powder room and the closet opens to a short hallway. On the left, just past some built–in shelves, there's a door to a large walk–in closet, while straight ahead another door opens to the master bath. The bath has both a soaking tub and a large shower, two separate vanities, and a private toilet. The bedroom is on the other side of the hallway. It has two windows in the sleeping area, and a sunny sitting area just beyond it.
The stairs to the upper level bring you to an open and sunny loft space with a ceiling that vaults to 9'. Off this space, the area at the rear of the house has two bedrooms, each with its own full bath, walk–in closet, and views to the side and rear. A portion of the ceilings in the bedrooms slope from 6' at the rear wall to 9' high. There is also a study with a built–in L–shaped desk. And at the front of the house there's a large room, also with a full bath and walk–in closet, which can be used as either a family room or a fourth bedroom. Window seats are built–in beneath four windows looking out to the front, and doors on each side wall open to attic space under the eaves. All the rooms on this level – except for the bedrooms and the family room that vaults in the center – have 9' ceilings.

Explorer of the Seas - Eastern Caribbean: Explorer of the Seas Cruise Review by PrettyLA
Overall Member Rating
Explorer of the Seas - Eastern Caribbean
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Bayonne (Cape Liberty)
Embarkation: This took longer than Port Canaveral. Many people were still waiting to leave by the time we got to the terminal around 11:00. We had boarding number 20 and it seemed like it too forever for them to call the first number but after that it went fairly quickly. We got on the ship around 12:30 and had lunch in the Windjammer. After that we went to the room and then went to the dining room to request main seating instead of second seating for dinner. We were put on a list and told that if it was changed we would get a note. When we went back to our stateroom we had a note. The first night we sat with a family and another couple who was sitting there for just one night. The next day we had another note with a table change. We sat with three other couples who were part of a larger group. The show was good. More There was a lightening storm, which was something else. The waves were kind of rough, but not too bad.
Day Two: This day was a sea day. The ship was rocking in the morning. Just explored the ship some more and relaxed.
Day Three: Bermuda was gorgeous. We took the carriage ride which was nice. We had a complainer on there though..you can't please some people and the lady she was with actually apologized for her when they got off. After the carriage ride we got something to eat then took a bus to Horseshoe Bay, which was absolutely gorgeous! I would say it is just about the prettiest beach I've ever been to.
Day Four: At sea again.
Day Five: St. Maarten was nice. Took the Little Divi Beach Bay excursion, which was nice. Was parked next to the Liberty of the Seas and couldn't believe how much bigger that ship is compared to the Explorer. The width of it was what really got me. HUGE.
Day Six: St. Thomas was very pretty. The Mariner was right behind us. Went to Coral World and Magen's Bay. Someone I know was on the Mariner and saw me on the beach and I just found out today that they saw me! Small world.
Day Seven: San Juan was a great port, in my opinion. Took the Fortresses tour and then went shopping on Cristos Street. Went to the Coach outlet there and bought a purse. I thought I was going to die when I went in the Coach outlet though. I'd like to go back to San Juan very much just to shop!
Day Eight: Sea day. Relaxed.
Day Nine: Sea day. Last day on the ship, which is always sad. We took the Ocean Lab tour, which was interesting.
Disembarkation: Not a smooth process. We had lavender luggage tags, which we requested to get instead of light blue so we could get home sooner. We got off the ship around roughly 9:45, although I can't remember the exact time. There are not nearly enough porters to handle the amount of people that get off of the cruise ship.
Service was excellent. Our waiter, Eduardo, was from the Philippines, and was very sweet. Our assistant waiter, I forget his name, was from Turkey. We were seated in the Columbus dining room. Our room steward was sweet. Her name was Emily and she was from the Philippines as well.
The food was good. The pizza was excellent. Maybe I just had a bad experience on the Mariner with the pizza in the dining room because I never had it anywhere else. I got pizza from the Cafe Promenade and it was hot and fresh everytime.
Entertainment was good. I thought the first night and the last night had the funniest comedians, and the magician was good too. Production shows were good as well.
We lucked out with this cruise and had great weather for the entire time, minus the beginning on the way down. On the way back the sea was just about smooth as glass.
The Explorer is very well maintained. I would have never guessed that the ship is going on seven years old. Beautiful ship. The crew was great. I really liked that they offered to carry your things in the Windjammer and went around asking if you needed anything to drink or anything else in general.
My only complaint was the disembarking..it really needs to be more efficient. A lot of people were saying that they would never sail out of that port again, which is really a shame since the Explorer is such a great ship.
Overall the cruise was amazing. Less

Industry News
Dog Food Company Giving Thousands of Pounds of Dog Food Away
One dog food company is setting the bar high by giving away bags of premium quality food to shelter pets in need during the holidays—and year round.
BOGO Bowl launched in June 2012 utilizing the buy one, give one model. For every bag of high quality premium BOGO Bowl dog food customers purchase, the exact same bag, pound for pound, is donated to a local shelter or rescue 501(c)3 in their area. Shipping is included on all orders and Dog Food Advisor awarded BOGO Bowl a 4-star "highly recommended"
"No family should have to give up their pet because they can't afford food. No shelter animal should have to be put to sleep because the shelter is low on food," says BOGO Bowl founder and pet advocate, Sara Henderson. "We believe in giving back and making a difference in the lives of at-risk animals while feeding a high quality premium food to all dogs."
BOGO Bowl was recently featured on The Today Show in a "Buy One, Give One" segment, where Kathy Lee and Hoda dished the scoop on the pet food. http://youtu.be/
Henderson knew she wanted to make the world a better place for animals -– she put that phrase on a "vision board" in 2008 –- and she started the process in 2009 when she founded the Pet Project Midwest. Pet pantries are emerging across the country to help feed family pets in need. That experience guided her to BOGO Bowl's concept: Buy a bag of dog food, and her company will give a bag to an at-risk pet in the same area where the food was bought.
All BOGO Bowl formulas meet AAFCO criteria for healthy, quality pet food. Formulas include Puppy, Maintenance, Healthy Weight, Lamb Meal and Rice, Chicken Meal and Rice, Salmon Meal and Rice, and No Grain.
BOGO Bowl is now available for purchase at BOGObowl.com or by calling 1-877-756-2646, as well as at select animal shelters across the country. The 20-pound bag is comparable to other similar-quality brands, with a price point ranging from $41.20 to $63.40 (with shipping included) per bag.
More information can be obtained by visiting http://www.bogobowl.com and http://www.facebook.com/
About BOGO Bowl
Des Moines-based BOGO Bowl launched in June 2012 with the buy one, give one model serving animal welfare organizations across the country. With every purchase of healthy, high-quality BOGO Bowl dog food, a matching bag of food will be given to a dog in need at no additional cost. BOGO Bowl is committed to keeping pets in their homes and helping give shelter animals more time to find a loving home. BOGO Bowl dog food is currently available for purchase by calling 1-877-756-2646 and at the Animal Rescue League of Iowa. It is distributed nationally through online sales and at shelters and rescues. Learn more at http://www.bogobowl.com.
About the Founder
Sara Henderson founded Des Moines-based BOGO Bowl in 2012. Sara is also a founder of the Pet Project Midwest, a not-for-profit organization in Iowa with the mission to keep pets in their homes and out of shelters.

S9921, Hormone Therapy With or Without Mitoxantrone and Prednisone in Patients Who Have Undergone Radical Prostatectomy for Prostate Cancer
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
RATIONALE: Hormones can stimulate the production of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy may fight prostate cancer by reducing the production of androgens. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether hormone therapy plus mitoxantrone and prednisone is more effective than hormone therapy alone for prostate cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying hormone therapy, mitoxantrone, and prednisone to see how well they work compared to hormone therapy alone in treating patients who have undergone radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer.
|Prostate Cancer
|Drug: bicalutamide Drug: goserelin Drug: mitoxantrone hydrochloride Drug: prednisone
|Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: No masking
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Adjuvant Androgen Deprivation Versus Mitoxantrone Plus Prednisone Plus Androgen Deprivation in Selected High-Risk Prostate Cancer Patients Following Radical Prostatectomy
- Overall survival [ Time Frame: at month 4 and every 3 months for 2 years ]
- Disease-free survival [ Time Frame: at month 4 and every 3 months for 2 years ]
- Qualitative and quantitative toxicity [ Time Frame: every 21 days for 4 months, then every 3 months for 2 years ]
- Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression-free survival rate [ Time Frame: at month 4 and every 3 months for 2 years ]
- Evaluation of biomarkers [ Time Frame: prestudy, weeks 24 and 28, and at progression ]
|Study Start Date:
|October 1999
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|June 1, 2022
|Primary Completion Date:
|June 2017 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: bicalutamide, goserelin
androgen deprivation
Drug: bicalutamide
Other Name: CasodexDrug: goserelin
Other Name: Zoladex
Experimental: bicalutamide, goserelin, mitoxantrone, prednisone
androgen deprivation plus mitoxantrone, prednisone
Drug: bicalutamide
Other Name: CasodexDrug: goserelin
Other Name: ZoladexDrug: mitoxantrone hydrochloride Drug: prednisone
Detailed Description:
- Compare the overall and disease-free survival of patients with high-risk adenocarcinoma of the prostate treated with adjuvant androgen deprivation therapy with or without mitoxantrone and prednisone after radical prostatectomy.
- Compare the qualitative and quantitative toxic effects of these regimens in this patient population.
- Compare the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression-free survival rate in patient treated with these regimens.
- Determine whether PSA progression is a surrogate endpoint for survival or disease-free survival in this patient population.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to surgical extent of disease (organ confined vs not organ confined, but N0 vs N1), Gleason's sum (less than 7 vs 7 vs greater than 7), and planned radiotherapy (yes vs no). Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms.
- Arm I:Patients receive goserelin subcutaneously once every 13 weeks (8 injections total) and oral bicalutamide once daily for 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Arm II:Patients receive mitoxantrone IV over 30 minutes on day 1 and oral prednisone twice daily on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive hormonal therapy as in arm I beginning concurrently with the initiation of mitoxantrone and prednisone.
Patients may undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6.5-7.8 weeks beginning anytime (arm I) or after completion of chemotherapy (arm II), at the discretion of the physician, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are offered the possibility to participate in biomarker research by allowing their tissue/blood to be studied.
Patients are followed every 6 months for 2 years and then annually for up to 13 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 1,360 patients (680 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 9.5 years.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years to 120 Years (Adult, Senior)

Hello Jukka,
I have unexpectedly encountered some missing goal scoring details for 1939 WC Canada (Trail Smoke Eaters). The Canadian newspapers did not print on Sundays and I am missing the CAN-CZE 4:0 game of February 11, 1939. Jukka, perhaps you might have this info? Also, by chance, do you have the game-by-game Swiss goal scorers? I would be very interested in seeing Switzerland's scoring totals.
Other than that, here are the Canadian goal scorers from the 1939 WC in Switzerland:
Canada-Netherlands 8:0
CAN: Morris (3), Kowcinak (2), Dame, Benoit, Cronie
Canada-Poland 4:0
CAN: McCreedy (2), Dame, Kowcinak
Canada-Great Britain 4:0
CAN: Brennan, Morris, Cronie, Snowden
Canada-Czechoslovakia 2:1
CAN: Benoit, Dame
CZE: Oldrich Hurych
Canada-Germany 9:0
CAN: Dame (2), Snowden, Cronie, McCreedy, Brennan, Benoit, Kowcinak, Morris
Canada-Switzerland 7:0
CAN: Dame (2), Cronie (2), Benoit, Snowden, Brennan
Canada-Czechoslovakia 4:0
CAN: McCreedy (1), ??????????????????????????????????????
Canada-USA 4:0
CAN: Benoit (2), Dame, Morris
As for the 1939 USA goal scorers, here are the totals:
Quirk -- 9
Bogue -- 6
Van -- 3
Dondi -- 2
Maley -- 2
Nicholson -- 2
Wagnild -- 1
Saari -- 0
Leaky -- 0
Jukka, I noticed your stats have Maley with 2 goals in the game against Italy. Maley only scored one goal (plus one assist) in that game. Nicholson scored 2 goals. I have the official scoring of the USA-Italy game:
First Period:
1. USA, Quirk (Bogue), 12:00
2. USA, Nicholson (Maley), 14:00
3. USA, Maley (unassisted), 18:00
Second Period:
4. USA, Van (unassisted), 2:00
Third Period:
5. USA, Nicholson (unassisted), 13:00
Thanks again for your help, Jukka. I believe we are making progress on some of these tournament stats.

I worked with Mr. Greben in the Santa Barbara Office. He was extremely knowledgable on issues of PERC and groundwater contamination. I had interviewed other firms, but Greben and Associates had the most experience. They are doing a fantastic job, and were able to obtain insurance coverage and reduce my expenses.

faulty gearbox
Compared to all the VW's in the world its a drop in the ocean there
must be millions upon millions with satisfactory boxes.
Except we had a succession of minor lemons - Golf 2 with an early HG
replaced before failure at 50k also early starter failure. Golf 3 that fell apart fast
albeit at 10 y/o
....non-standard coloured seats (black GTIs came with black-red but mine
had the black-blue checks)
I paid £7500 for my 107K 2004 Golf GTI 150 diesel..... And the main dealers
retail those at about £11K with sensible (32K) on the clock!
And I paid £7300 for my 53 reg Volvo 2.5T S80 in April with half
the miles (52 000). A second and a half quicker to 60 and 12mph higher
top speed plus leather trim
So in 3 years the Golf driver will have lost £2.5k to drive a desirable
motor with high credibility for 3 years wheras you'll have lost £6k to drive a......
Yeah but it's a Volvo which means nobody admires them which means nobody aspires to
own one which means their value plummets like a lead baloon.
In the next 3 years the GTI 150 will probably still be worth £5k wheras
your Volvo will be worth banger money.
Still feeling smug?

rit Philip Jeck is one of the most fascinating figures on the avant garde scene today. His compositions, crafted almost entirely from scratched and manipulated old records, are oddly emotional and complex, going beyond simple nostalgia to tap into the power of vinyl. Jecks roots are in the visual artshe began his turntable experiments while at art schoolbut he was seized at an early age by a realization of the near-limitless potential of the record player.
From his beginnings playing traditional DJ sets at underground parties and creating music to accompany dance performances, Jeck slowly began adapting his own distinctive style. After graduating from art school, he experimented with improvising and composing in different settings, including his collaborations with couple Sianed Jones and Cris Cheek in the experimental rock band Slant (with whom he released two albums). By the time of his 1993 exhibition Vinyl Requiem, which featured 180 Dansette turntables spinning simultaneously, his essential aesthetic was nearly in place, and the remainder of his career so far has seen him further refining and honing that aesthetic.
Using loops and samples from old records, with the vinyl hiss and defects comprising just another facet of the music, Jecks pieces are often eerie and ghostly, with sounds drifting up from beneath an ocean of crackling fuzz before being submerged again. He is capable of extracting remarkable beauty from the grooves of his source records, as well as emotions of dread, sadness, and great pleasure.
Vinyl Requiem was the true beginning of Jecks career as a musician, and just two years later he released his first recording, Loopholes, which captured his sound in its early stages. Surf followed four years later, and marked the beginning of what has been the most prolific stage of his career. The 2000-2001 Vinyl Coda serieswhich presented a series of live appearances recorded for broadcast on Dutch radioearned Jeck his most acclaim and attention yet. The four long (the shortest was 22 minutes) pieces on the two Vinyl Coda albums were Jecks most accomplished works to date, proving that he worked best in a live setting.
Recent years have seen Jeck increasingly collaborating with other musicians on the avant garde fringe, most notably on the exceptional first installment in Audiospheres Invisible Architecture series, a live improvisation with fellow turntablists Otomo Yoshihide and Martin Tétreault. The CD pitted Jecks pastoral tendencies with the more confrontational noise loops of Yoshihide, with explosive results. In addition to the Audiosphere album, 2002 saw the release of Jecks finest work yet, Stoke. Again compiled from live appearancesthis time greatly shortened and editedthe album was a further development of Jecks unique style, concentrating on individual ideas more than ever.
If Jeck continues on the arc of experimentation and increasing improvement hes been on in the past few years, his work will certainly be counted among the most vital recordings of the new century. By looking back into the past, he has paradoxically created something undeniably of our time and forward-looking, and his music is timeless because of it.
