What do a re-animated deviant surgeon, a cannibalistic serial killer and a demon-plagued, vomit-spattered priest have in common? They're all characters in camp stage musicals inspired by horror films — and they're all played by the same classically trained opera singer.
His name is Jesse Merlin, and he looks a little like a young, untanned George Hamilton. But he has a bass-baritone voice that would be perfect for Gilbert and Sullivan.
Since that's not what Hollywood's looking for, Merlin had to scare up roles elsewhere.
"I've become Mr. Horror Musical lately, with Dr. Hill in Re-Animator The Musical," he says. "And then I was Hannibal and a bunch of other roles in Silence! The Musical here in L.A."
Currently, he's playing a comic version of a certain demon-plagued Catholic priest in a Hollywood Fringe production called Exorcistic: The Rock Musical Parody Experiment.
"I was a little scared by making my entrance as the priest with a hip-hop number," he admits.
This is a guy who began singing opera professionally at 22.
"It's ironic, because now that's my selling point, that here I am this highfalutin', snooty, ridiculous opera singer — that's my background — having to wade into the entrails of a rock musical, and not just do hard rock and perform with a 4-piece really cooking rock band for the first time, but also lay down the beats and freestyle a little."
And deal with a little blood-spatter in addition to the projectile vomit, too. In Re-Animator: The Musical, based on Stuart Gordon's '80s cult classic film, Merlin plays a lecherous surgeon who literally loses his head and returns from the dead.
"There's a decapitation on stage," Merlin says. "And then there's a puppetry rig where I am carrying my own decapitated head around while singing."
"The new improved Dr. Hill," or so the lyric goes.
"He has to hunch over to make it look like he's carrying around his own head," says director Stuart Gordon, who describes the gig as a real physical challenge for Merlin. "He has to be a contortionist. And I found out when we were in rehearsal that he actually is double-jointed."
"Playing a villain is about the most fun you can have as an actor," Merlin admits. "Playing a decapitated zombie pervert was like the role I feel I was born to play."
What Sounds Good With Fava Beans And A Nice Chianti?
Aaaaaaaaand that brings us to horror-movie musical No. 3: Merlin got to understudy and eventually play the role of Hannibal Lecter in an L.A. production of Silence! The Musical.
Narrated by an adorable chorus of flop-eared lambs, the unauthorized parody began life as an online concept album and found an audience at a New York fringe festival in 2005. After runs in London and off-Broadway, it played Los Angeles in late 2012.
"That character's voice …" Merlin says. "I read an interview where Anthony Hopkins said Hannibal is a cross between Katherine Hepburn and HAL-9000. And that's totally it. [Goes into character] 'Now what did Migs say to you, Multiple Migs, so he hissed at you, what did he say …"
Opera — particularly the Gilbert & Sullivan operettas that are a key part of Merlin's repertoire — proved surprisingly useful as he prepared for his bloodier recent undertakings.
"I think it's a grounding in over-the-top, archetypal stock characters — extreme characters," he says.
And there's an upside to doing genre work, Merlin argues, for an artist who doesn't fit neatly into a precast mold.
"Actors who are offbeat, who don't look like a model, who don't look like an easily marketed character type — one who is a little average or unusual looking or has an unusual talent — will find a place in horror where no one else really has a place for you," he says.

Personally, I suspect that the return of Wrynn and his sort of self-appointed leadership of the Alliance is probably more calculated on Blizzard's part than it currently seems. Not only does it serve the immediate purpose of increasing the tensions between the Alliance and the Horde, something Blizzard has said they were planning on escalating, it also sets up a whole lot of possibility for more in-fighting and drama amongst the Alliance down the road.
What if King Wrynn makes a unilateral decision so unpopular that it threatens Stormwind's relations with the rest of the Alliance? (no real-life parallel intended...) That could lead into some very interesting plot lines in further patches/expansions. I can't imagine the Alliance will fall apart or even lose any of its races during WoW's lifetime, but I can certainly imagine that the threat could arise and would create a richer storyline than a simple Alliance vs Horde or Alliance&Horde vs _____(insert enemy here) storyline.

Twins offer Blake a two-year contract with an option for 2011Posted on December 3rd, 2008 – 6:15 PM
By Joe Christensen
The Twins have offered free agent third baseman Casey Blake a two-year contract worth about $6 million per season with an option for 2011, but Blake wants the third year guaranteed, a person with knowledge of the negotiations told the Star Tribune today.
ESPN's Jayson Stark reports that the Twins and Dodgers have basically been told they'll get Blake if they'll add a third year to their two-year offers.
Blake, 35, made $6.1 million this year while batting .274 with 21 home runs and 81 RBI for the Indians and Dodgers. He'll turn 36 next Aug. 23 but has averaged 598 plate appearances over the past six seasons.
The Twins have been aggressive in pursuing Blake, hoping to seal a deal before the winter meetings, but team officials don't expect a signing tonight.

Outside of the classroom, the opportunities for education about biomimicry are truly without bounds. We have developed informal education material for museums, zoos, interpretive trails, outdoor youth programs, television, film, and more. Informal educational institutions that we have worked with to help launch biomimicry programs include the San Diego Zoo, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Montreal Biosphere. Exhibits and displays we have developed or helped develop have been displayed at the California Academy of Sciences, Harvard Graduate School of Design, the Natural History Museum of the Adirondacks, the Basque Biodiversity Center, Exploration Works!, the Green Living Show in Toronto, and more.
If you have ideas or questions about our informal educational efforts,
feel free to contact our Director of Youth and Public Education, Sam
Stier, sam(a)biomimicryinstitute.org.
Every Thursday evening, California Academy of Sciences (CAS) organizes a themed event called NightLife that is part educational experience and part cocktail party. During 2011 Bioneers (October 14-16), NightLife drew more than 1,500 attendees who learned about biomimicry to the beat of dance and techno music. Guests viewed our collection of biomimetic products and watched the documentary Second Nature: The Biomimicry Evolution.
In the African Hall, over 50 biomimicry design sketches from university students were on display from the California College of the Arts, the Schulich School of Engineering at the University of Calgary, and the University of California at Berkeley Department of Architecture. Professors and Biomimicry Fellows Tom McKeag and Marjan Eggermont were on hand to discuss the students' work and answer questions. The exhibition was viewed by hundreds of visitors during the course of the evening.

Samsung brings TVNZ Ondemand to big screen
Posted on 15-Jan-2013 09:59.
Filed under:
Consumer Electronics
DVB and HD
If youd like to watch TVNZ Ondemand TV on your big screen, Samsung New Zealand and TVNZ have the answer.
The technology company has signed an exclusive deal with the broadcaster to bring their on demand content to your lounge via the new TVNZ Ondemand app for Samsung Smart TVs. With just the click of a button, the app provides a quick and easy way for viewers to catch up on their favourite TV shows.
The app is available for Samsung Smart TV models from 2011.
Samsung New Zealand Group Product Manager Todd Selwyn says TVNZ Ondemand is just one example of the many different ways a Smart TV can be utilised in the home.
Now you can sit back and watch TVNZ Ondemand content from the comfort of your couch on a big screen with friends and family, Selwyn says.
We all know big is best when it comes to content so this partnership provides another good reason to invest in a Samsung Smart TV.
TVNZs General Manager of Digital Media Tom Cotter says the network is excited to partner with Samsung to bring TVNZ Ondemand to Samsung Smart TVs.
This partnership gives Kiwis another place to watch their favourite shows when they want and is the first of a series of innovations they can expect from TVNZ Ondemand and Samsung in the coming months.
TVNZ operates three digital TV channels, two of which are digital on the Sky platform. In November TVNZ Ondemand had more than 435,000 unique viewers and more than 2 million streams. The most popular programme that month was Shortland Street which got over 500,000 stream views.
Samsung Smart TV models that feature the new app include the ES8000, ES7000 and ES6200 series. Users can download the app by accessing Samsung Smart Hub on their TV and visiting the app store.
The Ondemand app is available now on Samsung Smart TVs and will soon also be available on Samsung Smart Blu-ray devices.

It could also be that Blizzard has heard the call, and perhaps this could give hunters a chance to have their pet hold more aggro than the current pre-stated amount.
If it means losing a little DPS to having a pet that was more certain than ever to hold aggro while questing/grinding, sure, I'd go for it. I don't mind if fights take just a little longer.
I'm not certain if I'm phrasing this right, but one thing I notice is that hunters' feelings on what their pets should and shouldn't do is all over the road. The pet talent tree is a great way for a hunter to decide exactly how they'd like their pet to act. I think it's awesome. :)

Discovering Evert Taube
I had no idea who Evert Taube was when I discovered this statue in the smallish Järntorget square in Stockholm's Gamla stan, or old town. Local musician or composer was my guess – he's holding sheet music, is draped in a coat-as-cape and confidently lifting his sunglasses towards his beret. I liked that he's not propped up and displayed on a pedestal, but rather standing at street level, as if he's eyeing passers-by or on his way somewhere.
It turns out that Taube, who died in 1976 at 85, was and remains one of Sweden's most respected folk singers, a legendary traveler and sailer, and the author who penned the most well known Swedish language anti-Fascist poem. His song Änglamark, written for a popular 1971 Swedish cult film The Apple War, or Äppelkriget, was an early anthem for the environmental movement and is still widely performed today.
I spent the past hour searching for and listening to some of his songs. Check out Balladen om Gustav Blom, Byssan Lull, and my favorites on this relaxing misty night, two renditions of his composition Nocturne – an instrumental version performed by Julian Lloyd Webber and Sven Bertil Taube and a 1949 clip of a Taube performance.

Most swedes are familiar with very few songs and lyrics, and it's not very common to sing spontaneously unless you are part of a choir or drinking in a party. But most swedes know the lyrics and melody of 2-3 of Evert Taube's songs.
Many thanks for the insight – I spoke to someone in the square that day that told me about the song for The Apple War. I enjoyed spending a few hours searching for and listening to his music.
I will take a closer look on your posts, there seem to be quite a lot of different themes and interesting pictures.
Thanks and you're most welcome! This café never closes.

This Week's News
Celebrate phenomenal growth in female physicians with a new s(pin) on Pinterest
CMS confirms 1-year delay to ICD-10; new compliance date is Oct. 1, 2014
Stage 2 meaningful use requirements revealed; AMA reviewing final rule
AMA CEO among publication's 100 most influential people in health care
This Week's News
CMS confirms 1-year delay to ICD-10; new compliance date is Oct. 1, 2014
Physicians now have an extra year to prepare for the new ICD-10 code set as the result of a final rule issued Aug. 24 by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The rule delays the compliance deadline by one year to Oct. 1, 2014.
The delay is intended to give physicians more time to ready their practices for the transition to ICD-10 and conduct testing prior to the compliance deadline.
"By allowing more time to prepare, covered entities may be able to avoid costly obstacles that would otherwise emerge while in production," CMS wrote in the rule.
CMS proposed the delay after the AMA urged the agency to reconsider implementation of the new code set, which will be costly for physicians to adopt. Consisting of approximately 68,000 codes, ICD-10 is a fivefold increase from the 13,000 codes used under ICD-9 and will require significant training and practice changes for physicians and their staff.
"The AMA appreciates the … decision to provide a one-year delay in response to AMA advocacy, but we have urged CMS to do more to reduce the regulatory burdens on physician practices so physicians can spend more time with patients," AMA Board of Trustees Chair Steven J. Stack, MD, said in a statement.
The final rule states that CMS will continue to work with the industry to provide outreach and education on ICD-10, and continue to engage stakeholders on a wide variety of ICD-10 implementation issues, including reducing the burden this transition will place on physicians and others in health care. The AMA will continue to engage CMS toward that end.
Visit the AMA's ICD-10 Web page to learn more about preparing for the compliance deadline.

Patient stories
For all of you gusy out there that think you will never get over
losing your hair I can tell you that you will. I had a very thick head
of hair until I started losing it at age 19, and the next ten years
were the most awful you can imagine. I spent those years in front
of the mirror and with my back to the mirror holding another mirror so
I could see the crown of my head. If that makes you laugh a
little than there is a good chance you will get through this, believe
me. It looks worse to you thant it does to anyone else. I
still have hair on the sides and back that I cut very short. The
little hair that I have left in the front and on top I shave every few
days. The top of my head is natuarally shiny so there is an
occasional joke but compared to the number of women who want to touch
it (and do other things to it) I can put up with a joke now and
than. Get over this guys. The frown lines and wrinkles that
you will get from being insecure about this will make you look older
than your hair loss. Even if you don't believe it at first, tell
yourself it's no big deal and eventually it won't be. Not to you
or anyone else.
I was just reading the horror stories. I hope you post this with my
emal address.
I've recently turned 31 years old and had my first of three hair
transplant sessions totaling around 1500 grafts. I was 25 when I
had my last transplant. I have been wanting to shave my head for
quite some time now as I believe I would look a lot better, but I know
I can't because of the linear scar at the back of my head. I
tried it with some clippers last summer as I was brave one night just
to see how noticeable the scars would be. Sure enough, I almost
cried when I looked in the mirror at the back of my head. I and
to wear a hat to cover it for a few weeks to allow for hair to grow
back to cover the scars. I was devastated. You could plainly see
the un-eveness of the scars and the discoloration, not to mention the
gap the width of a pencil going straight across the back like a smiley
face. This gap, obviously has no hair.
Since last summer I have gotten treatments from a dermatologist
using a V-Beam laser which is the newest laser on the market for scar
revision. I had this along with micro-dermabrasion. There
is some hope as I have managed to reduce the discoloration
significantly and flatten the scar to match the rest of my skin.
It even shrunk the scar a bit, but not enough to my satisfaction.
It is a start if you're interested. I still am afraid to shave my
head again, but I want to so badly to end my pain and low self esteem.
I would be so much more confident if I could shave my head. My
dating life sucks because of my shaken confidence...So sad indeed.
I was 23 when I had my first transplant which was still relatively
young and desperate at the time. Now, I wish I hadn't like much
like the rest of you on here.
I take Propecia which keeps the hair I have. If I don't take it
then my hair will fall out around my transplants and my life would
crumble into oblivion. Hair Transplants are not the long term
solution as, eventually you will run out of donor hair to keep up with
the hair loss.
Please respond if you have any good news for me at email@example.com
February 26th, 2004
was cursing the internet looking at hair replacements systems and say
your web site. I can tell you this issue is near and dear to me as I
lost my hair at 22 (now 41) I have had 3 hair transplants ($12500
invested?) and still look �bald�. I can totally relate to your
horror story although mine not as bad. My first one was in the 80�s
and had a baby doll look to it. I ended up doing a come over to cover
the plugs. In 94 I had a corrective procedure done in
(Dr. Anderson) and
it a little look better, I was happy not having to do the come over. In
96 I tried again with Elliott & True -
I was sold by the so called new techniques. For the most part it was
successful but some did not come in the front. The used
�Assistants� like your article mentioned. However, I was again
disappointed with how thin it was and the were ready to sign me up for
a few more procedures. I got wise at this point and just lived with it
for many years until recently. The scar on the back of my head is now
very red - I have had to
see a doctor but there is really nothing I can do but put lotion on it.
is no way I am ever going to have another transplant as there is simply
not enough donor hair and the strip method of harvesting is so brutal
that that my scar would be too big. The only thing that looks promising
the doctors that use body hair � but really pricey and too new.
like I said was happy to see someone else not happy with their
procedure�s. I am wondering what you are doing now? I
am looking into hair pieces because not only do I have to cover my bad
hair transplants I now need to cover the scar on the back of my head.
Hair pieces seem to have gotten
a lot better with adhesives
and seem to look more natural. Have you looked in to this?
care and keep up spreading the word that transplants DONT WORK..
Hello David,
I am 33 years old and had 100 transplants done
above my right and left temple in 1996. The implants are usually 3-4
hairs in density and there are 10-15 single hair implants at the very
front. I've taken propecia since late 1998, and minoxidil for 10 years.
As you can imagine, the top of my head and back look fine due to the
drugs. I have recently purchased a laser comb and "feel" it
is having a somewhat positive effect.
Now for the bad news, amongst the hair plugs,
my regular hair in the front has fallen out between them. I comb my
hair in bangs and am very afraid of wind. I only had 100 transplants
which consist of about 350 hairs, but I'm very depressed. I thought
Propecia would keep me from ever losing another hair in my
life.........but it doesn't in the frontal area. To make matters worse,
I visited a big name hair transplant "mill" to see if they
could stop any more hair loss with the treatment programs they
advertised on their site. I went in for a consultation. They told me
that they now use "RugClubforYen" if you know who I mean and their
program to stop hair loss. After six months of rubbing various
chemicals in my head 5 minutes a day (and still having to use propecia
and minoxodil of course), the hair that was between the plugs is all
gone out. Its not growing back either I now realize. I've been paying
these people for cuts and once-a-month administration of the chemicals
with a minute under an infrared light at a total cost of 1900 bucks a
year. To think that the buzz over laser hair therapy was what sent me
to them in the first place and how I got mood-scammed into "rugclubforyen",
who I distrusted beforehand, is dispiriting.
My new plan of action is to go to a
doctor and get the few plugs "repaired" (broken up into
single hairs) and moved back into my hair behind my natural hairline as
it exists for my new hairstyle..........a buzz cut. I know I have a
one-and three forths inch scar at the back of my head, but it is small.
I can deal with it. I'm just so glad I didn't have MORE surgery. Now,
in my 30's I can more easily accept hairloss and am actually looking
forward to a very neat look. I intend to stay on propecia and minoxidil
because the top and back are VERY full. I do want to say to the guys
going through the first stages of baldness however, JUST get a Buzzcut
guys. Leave a three day stubble on your head for color. If science can
ever "clone" hair it will be different and we can all
go get a full head of glorious locks like old time movie stars, but for
now hair transplants cause much more trepidation and psychological pain
than they benefit. Bad ones, and Ive seen some pictures, have literally
ruined some men's lives. I spent $2500 bucks on the first one, $1900 on
my extra therapy, and imagine I will spend $5000 or so to get my 100
plugs broken up into 350 or so individual hairs and placed back
further. That's ten thousand dollars when I could have been comfortable
with a nice buzz cut all these years while using propecia and minoxidil
waiting for cloning to become a reality like other (smarter guys). I
implore you all to talk to a dermatological surgeon from a well
respected practice before doing anything about hair loss. Not a
salesman who acts as a valet to a surgeon who sees dollar signs when he
sees you.
Dave, Mike
,I am sorry I did not find your website before I went into a BSR clinic
to find out what my hairloss options were, I was beginning to
thin in the front and was wondering and was sure a Doctor would
give me the proper advice. The consultant of course told me I needed a
transplant because nothing else would work on the front of my head
other than transplant . I did ask several questions and was told
that the procedure was a great thing that had no problems or
complications. I was unsure if I needed the amount of grafts and
asked to see the doctor who told me I needed 2,500 grafts to get great
results and that I would not need any other work to be done if went
with that amount. Believing that a doctor would not do me any
harm I went forward and regret that I did. I understand now that
2,500 grafts would be enough to cover a totally bald head. I was a Norwood
3 at worst with some thinning. Anyway at the time I understood very
little about the mechanics of hair transplants and was assured by the
doctor and consultant I would get great results . It did not. The no
complication surgery has ruined my life and affected me in so many
ways. I was a proud and secure individual with great ambition and
looked at this as taking care of myself as I would my teeth or anything
else. Unfortunately I have scars, bumps, pits and a lot of other
problems including neuropathy and a heart condition as a result. I am
functioning at less than half speed and am loosing ground as days go
by. I hope that no one else gets taken by this butcher who is a poor
excuse for Doctor by any definition of the word. Another note
would be that there is no way I got 2,500 graft as the doctor was
looking for a places to put them and ended up lowering my hairline and
planting some into my crown it was told to me by a reputable Doctor
that the rest were probably thrown out but they sure took that many
from the look of your donor scar. Another thing is that the consultant
professed how honest he was and what a great company he worked for
because they help people, into depression I guess. The whole thing was
a deceptive scam through and through and I hate myself for not having
seen it.
every minute
Found your site while browsing the web for information on potential
processes for hair transplants. I'm 34, and I had a transplant
when I was 27 and they were suddenly very available and very cheap.
Now I wish I had never even heard of them.
I always had really thick hair as a kid and when it started to thin in
my early 20s I was very conscious of it. by 1995 I got it into my
head that I had to have one of these transplants, because I was
obsessive with my hair and the idea of losing it so much that it was
giving me stomach aches. It's funny how in my 20s it bothered me
that I might be bald someday. in my 30s I don't worry about it,
other than that when it happens my grafts will look absolutely
ridiculously visible.
I was lucky compared to some of the accounts I have read here, I had
only one session and- honestly- the doctor should have turned me away
at the door because I was not bald enough at that point to need a
transplant and was obviously dealing with insecurity issues.
however- he was happy to take me... I had 150 4-hair grafts and 75
two-hair grafts along the front hairline from left to right. It
was medieval, it felt like they were planting the grafts into my
forehead with a punch-awl- being sent through a
I recall I drove home with blood trickling down my neck and thinking
what the Hell was I thinking? when it grew in and I saw for
the first time what it was really going to look like I almost cried.
what had I done to myself? I was never going to have the
hairline I had when I was 16 again, this was a poor substitute- and
nobody told me it would look this bad.
Ironically, I am more self-conscious of my plugs than I EVER was about
my thinning hair and those years of hiding them are numbered. I
bristle when the women I date get up close and touchy-feely with me... I'm
terrified they will look close and see the procedure. I have had
4 girlfriends who actually asked me what the hell was up with my
hairline. imagine having to go through that confession!
I admit I tweeze the grafted areas a bit, to thin out the plugs and
make them look less like Barbie-doll sprouts when the wind blows or a
girlfriend wants to play with my hair. my scarring isn't bad at
all, at least from what I can see, at least there are only a couple of
pits or discoloration specks that wouldn't be noticeable if I was able
to reverse the procedure. Thank god I never went back for more
sessions. I am ashamed of the one I had, and terrified of someone
finding out that I was so insecure at one point in my life that I had
to alter my appearance.
The sad thing is, I can see how I am going bald naturally, and I think
that its actually going to be a very distinguished, neat looking
recession- I would look great if I could buzz cut and spike, but forget
that now- I cant wear my hair back unless I want to deal with stares
because it looks phony.
Please, please if you're reading this and considering a procedure just
freakin go bald already, trust me- when you're 40 and living your life
to the fullest its not going to matter one bit if you have hair or not.
Save yourself the embarrassment I have to deal with every day and buy
property with your money. It's a better investment.
To all,
I am 29 and started to loose my hair since I was 23. I was pretty
confident with a shaved head for a while, but I made the mistake to go
to MHR after watching one of their infomercials. They sold me on the
process. I put 5,500 bucks for 1100 grafts. They promised great
Now, after 2 months of kicking myself for doing this I have a donor
scar on the back of my head, and redness on my crown, but no visible
hair growth (I believe that I've lost more hair since the
operation). If you are thinking about a transplant, please just
forget about it!!!!! I hate not being able to shave my head
I am now trying to find a reputable plastic surgeon to get rid of the
donor suture line that they left on me....If you know about someone
please let me know!!
All of this pain just for some more hair... IT IS NOT WORTHY.
All the best.
Dear "Dave"
Why would you have a section on your site that
promotes rugs if your
message is the pitfalls of transplants?
By the way, I've had 3 transplants and I'm happy
about the results. No,
it's not as asthetically pleasing as as I had never lost my hair, but
beats being bald. I have good donor hair and will probably
have one or two
more operations in the next year. It's too bad it didn't
work for you, but
for you to conclude that transplants are too risky based on your own
experience is not a warranted conclusion.
Also, your "before" photos are dark
and much darker than your "after"
photos, probably hiding the extent of actual hair loss before the
Why play the games that doctors do (in their case, the
"after" photos are
darker)?? Why not be upfront about it, instead of trying to exaggerate
response: I am not trying to promote hair
pieces or any other service. This site offers advice and
information based on my own experience and many others suffering from
hair loss. I have not retouched my before and after photos on
this site in any way. This result is a reality of hair
Hello David,
The Head Mop for Men Member
Holy Cow!
I have been researching getting hair transplants for the last 3 months - I haven't been able to find ANYTHING on the web that speaks
negatively about the process. I stumbled across your site, looking for something that presented the contrary view. I am extremely
grateful that there is ANYONE with another side to this wonder-surgery.
Thanks for the information and the insight. I have not done anything about my hairloss - yet. Maybe I just won't.
Bald may not be beautiful, but it might be better than scarred. Thank you thank you thank you.
I, too, am dissatisfied with my transplant results. I had a hair transplant 10 months ago and last week had a follow up. When I had
my consultation last year Dr. xxxxx in Atlanta sold me on one of four possible packages small, medium, large and extra
large. He told me that a large session ($7,000) would be all I needed and the photos of other clients confirmed this.
I do have transplanted hair today but it is 50 -60 percent thinner than what I was led to believe would happen or the photos indicated.
Last week, the doctor had the nerve to say with just one more session you should be good to go. I almost fell out of my chair. This
-is not- what I was told last year.
I am going to contact the DA in Atlanta where Dr. xxxxx works and file a complaint, maybe some legal action. Any other men that
you know of ever field a successful law suit for bogus transplant claims?
savannah, georgia
Again thank you for this site and the voice you give people who have been through this.
- xxxx
Note: I
hope to post info on corrective surgery in the near future.
Please check back.
They tell me it will take 3 months to do all the above...at first it was
exciting to see hair fill in where it had left a few years back...but,
then after the last procedure and a year later I had this one strip of hair in the
front (ala Phil Collins) and the reductions had major stretch-back! (there
were no grafting on the top or back of my head they said what the reduction
did not take out they would add touch-up's later.. keyword "touch-up's") after
the first year I had gotten married and this was weighing heavy on my
mind, and
I actually felt worse than I did before I had any procedure's done!
well. I opted to go back in and meet the consultant (you know the one that wears the
white doctor's coat and makes you feel he's a professional but anyone can do
his job, (he's just a hired hand)... he takes his black comb out and parts and combs my hair in different
directions to see the growth, then he calls for the doctor who comes in the
room and does the same exact thing! he say's "500 more grafts and another
scalp reduction!" by the way I didn't mention how cold and callous the dr.
who performed my surgery was, he just wanted to talk about his kid's future
and would cut my question's short. I left there that day feeling like I just
bought a 13,000 hat!! emotionally it changed my life terribly! I got a divorce I felt insecure, I felt if I was somewhere and the wind blew it would
blow my hat off and I would be found out!!...in 92 I actually call up the
clinic (Bosley) and they have their main office in Beverly Hill's call me
back in the form of their president at the time "Doctor xxxxxxx"....
We have a heated exchange, with him telling me by looking at my photo's in
their file that my picture's look fine!... and I say "you know Polaroid
camera's are so deceiving, the pictures you take with those camera's always have bad
lighting!!" well he say's a few thing's and hangs-up on me!!..to shorten the
story I'm 33 I have went thru 3 failed marriages because I feel inadequate
and everyone I meet and date I have to always pick a time in our relationship to set them down and tell them my
ordeal!... granted the older I get the easier it's taken but the damage is done and I've had this eating on
me for 11yrs!!! and I still feel like I have a secret. I do not wish this
fate on anyone out there or reading this!!..please...weigh your option's and
don't become a statistic!....
I started
shaving my head 2 years ago , and I could not be happier. I do have 3 long scars on my
head, which I was very insecure about, but believe me they are not as bad as WE THINK they
are (not mine anyway). I am very happy, I meet plenty of women, and I actually joke about
my scars now. I am lucky that my transplants were on my crown area. I only had 15 micros
in the front, that are not noticeable when I shave them.
The plugs in the back are noticeable, but I have accepted them and the
scars (seriously).
Anyone that is considering shaving their head please feel free to e-mail me. I know
what you guys are going through. I am so happy I could finally be myself. Bald is
definitely in, and will continue to be until there is a NON SURGICAL solution.
Rogaine and Propecia? Why does Karl Malone shave his
head if Rogaine is so good. None of that works. Anyone considering transplants, don't do
it. It is NEVER like your real hair. If transplants were so good how come ANDRE AGGASI
didn't do it , he has the money. By THE WAY who gets more women AGGASI or Pete Sampras,
with all that hair.
My worst decision in my life was doing the transplants , I
lost 6 years of the best years of my life because of it. My best decision was shaving it
all off. I wish the scars were not there, but mine are not that bad. I get many
compliments on my shaved head. I suggest everyone take a look at the actors BILLY ZANE web
page, you guys tell me if he looks better with hair or with his head shaved. He is only
losing a little hair and he is a perfect candidate, he looks better with the shaved head,
as do I, unfortunately I didn't realize this when I was 20 years old.
Also anyone that goes to these transplant places, ASK TO
SEE IN PERSON A COMPLETED PICTURE OF A STAGE 6 , no one will show you one because
they are way too thin... And almost everyone becomes a stage 6.
Almost no one is ever satisfied with a hair transplant,
they always go back for more sessions. I used to be friends with a guy that works for
NU-HART, he had 4 sessions (2800 grafts) and his hair is still very thin. His brother
shaves his head and gets much more pussy than him (if anyone does not believe me ask for
Dennis at NU-HART, and ask him what his brother does with his hair.
If anyone that has done the surgery and is seriously
considering shaving their head feel free to e-mail me at email@example.com.
Someone has got to let people know the truth,
many of the pictures ARE tampered with, and many of us do this surgery out of
Bald is not that bad if you keep your hair very short, or
shave it completely.
I am supposed to have an additional 600 - 800 grafts implanted in about 4 to 6
months. Based upon your research, and my own initial experience, I wouldn't
dream of proceeding with additional transplants.
I am reserving final judgment until the beginning of July, the point at which
6 months will have passed from the date of my surgery.
In the event that the hair I lost is not restored, and the surgery produces
unacceptable results, can you give me the name and phone number of a company
in or around Ann Arbor, Michigan that specializes in the lace front hair
replacement system?
Do you have any comments or advice concerning my experience, thus far? All
things considered, I wish that I had not had the procedure done. Although I
read many articles, I didn't discover your site until it was too late.
I appreciate the work you are doing.
I too had problems with transplants. I went to Dr.
Sword in Torrance & got 350 grafts done, which he said would be enough to take care of
my minor thinning hair loss. Eight months later I did not notice any fair results as
he had promised. I went back & compared before & after pictures that he had
taken. It was very clear to me that the before & after pictures were almost
identical. However, Dr. Sword disagreed. It was as if we were looking at 2
different photos. I thought I was loosing my mind. In the before photos he had
my hair parted apart, and it was wet. But when he compared it, he did not part or
wet my hair. I told him that if I wet my hair & part it as he did, the loss
would still be evident. I could not get him to see my point of view. He talked
me into another procedure of 550 grafts, which he said for sure that would satisfy
me. Well, it's been about 8 months, and the results are totally
insignificant!!! I'm out $1000s of dollars with very little results. I don't
know what other alternatives I have that would be permanent & satisfying. Any
suggestions? What about Propecia?
I was the only one out of 5 boys in my family that was losing his
hair. With a little research I decided to do something about it. I kept my
first procedure a secret from everyone when I got back. At 26, I was thinning,
but was able to disguise the remaining hair sufficiently so you couldn't tell what I
did. In the following 2 years I did 5 more sessions and I just got back from my
7th. I'm spending all this money to try to fix a mistake in my younger years
($12,000). It looked fine and things went well for about 5 years. As time went
on I started to loose hair around my transplants and as a result, an island started to
develop on my head. Now I'm 36, and the way I feel about myself now vs 26 is
different. I could care less about losing my hair, but unfortunately, it's like I
live on a double edged sword. I'm going severely bald and it's also obvious I have
had transplants.
I envy bald people who crew cut what remaining hair they have because at least they have a
smooth head, and those with a full head of hair. I would love to buzz my head to
about an eighth of an inch, but can't because of all the plugs on my head. It looks
like someone went golfing up there due to all the divots and this is something they don't
tell you in the office. I know I can honestly deal with baldness now, because it's
happening anyway. People go through it and it's no big deal to me. I dirt
bike, water ski, swim, snow board, and a buzzed head would be very functional for me. But
instead, I have to perform a ten minute ritualistic, masterful piece of artwork with the
hair spray and brush after every shower, plus live with the fact that both you and me can
tell I got transplants and deal with that fact everyday of my remaining mortal life.
All I really wanted to do is grow old gracefully, but can't. How I wish to God I
never stepped foot into that office!! It has damaged and hurt me in ways I just
can't even get into. I would never do this if I were you unless you could see
someone who has already done it up close. Some people can be good subjects for
transplants, but
I wasn't one of them even though they said I was.
Good luck to ya,
another life stolen

Leni Ward has done it alone. Using money inherited from her grandfather, she set up a home studio and over the course of a year recorded what was to become her 2008 album, Body. A true solo effort, Leni was the album's composer, producer, recording engineer and sole performer, playing 11 instruments over the course of the album.
Live, Leni performs with a variety of samplers, drums machines, keys, guitars and pedals to create complex multilayered tracks. Generally, she's playing or controlling three or four of them at any one time. If you watch her feet while she's playing, it looks like she's tap dancing.

As part of the Institute of South East Asian Studies (ISEAS), Payap University's Study Abroad Program gives full-time degree-seeking undergraduate students enrolled at Payap an opportunity to study in another country and experience life outside of Thailand for one term or one academic year. There are many different opportunities. Students are not required to be a Thai citizen to study abroad through the program; the student simply needs to be enrolled at Payap and have completed at least one year of study at Payap prior to going abroad. Students of all nationalities are encouraged to participate. For non-Thai students, Study Abroad exchange cannot be completed at a university located in the student's home country. Each school in the Study Abroad Program has a different arrangement with Payap University. But students will typically pay Payap tuition, airfare, and personal expenses.
Note: The study abroad program is available for full-time degree-seeking undergraduate students only.

Jukka, OH2BR, gave me this bit of advice. "Find out who your closest ham neighbors are," he said, "and contact them." "They could be your best friends and Elmers OR your worst opposition if you interference to their ham activities. Start early—contact them today!" He went on to tell this story:
I found out how important it is to acquaint myself with my neighbor hams the hard way. I built a 15W XTAL TX and started working the world. One day I got a note from the President of our national league SRAL (Finland), OH2TK. He lived one block away from me. Was I terrified! I thought I would be expelled from the League for causing interference with my poorly constructed TX. Happily, he was a most amiable person and took me under his wing, so there was a happy end to the story.
Today, there are many ways to find the hams in your neighborhood. One way to do this is to do it the old-fashioned way—walk around your neighborhood looking for antennas.
Another way to do this is to visit QRZ.Com. Most of us use QRZ.Com to search for particular amateur by typing his or her callsign into the search box. You can, however, get a list of ham radio operators in your zip code by typing that into the search box. When I typed "48103" into the search box, it returned 150 licensees.
Perhaps an even better way to do this is with N4MC's Ham Locator. When you type you zip code into the appropriate box on this Web page, you get a Google map that shows where the hams are located. You can then zoom in and pan around to find the hams closest to you.
Here's a map of my neighborhood. Clicking on the little markers gives you the name and address of each licensee.
So, find the hams in your neighborhood and get to know them. You never know. You might make a friend for life.

No CG, it's about real visual magic.
Computer graphics are out of control nowadays. Just look at the quality in any recent blockbuster hit. The compositing and special effects simply blow your mind. Every year shows the movie industry step that much closer to really bluffing the human eye.
But isn't the simple knowledge of these visual feasts being "doctored" enough to tamper with our suspension of disbelief?
Perhaps it's in reaction to this that more and more creations come out putting something resolutely "real" on the table. I'm seeing (and loving) a lot of this stuff. There's real magic in attempting to "perform" a piece rather than doing it after the shoot, over the course of several weeks, in front of your screen scrubbing through effects, polishing your polygons, etc.
I will be dedicating this space to some of the pearls i stumble on as i wade through my everyday digital life. Feel free to contribute :)

Jury selection is scheduled to begin in Prince George's County for a D.C. police officer charged in the deaths of a woman and her young child.
Opening statements in the trial of Richmond Phillips are expected Monday after two days of jury selection starting Thursday.
Phillips was arrested in June 2011 after police found the body of 20-year-old Wynetta Wright in the Oxon Run Stream Valley Park. Her 1-year-old daughter, Jaylin, was found dead nearby in a car seat in Wright's car. Police say the girl may have died as a result of exposure to the heat. Court records show Phillips and Wright were involved in a paternity dispute.
D.C. police say Phillips has been suspended without pay. He had been a vice officer.

Our Top 12 Most Notable Moments of 2012 – Part Two
Here is the second half of our countdown to our top 12 moments of 2012. We hope you've enjoyed the year as much as we did. As we look forward, we're extremely excited for what's in store in 2013. Here's to an amazing new year!
Moment #6 | Creative Cloud Scavenger Hunt
Back in April, we got creatives involved in a scavenger hunt right in our backyard in San Francisco the day of the Creative Cloud launch – and it sure was a blast. The grand prize was $10,000 and a lifetime Creative Cloud membership, with two runner-up prizes of 1-year Creative Cloud memberships, which ended up being grabbed by some very lucky winners. Thanks again to all those who participated! We had some great memories from your social documentary.
Moment #5 | Create the Web
Kicking off the first leg of the tour in San Francisco, we announced key updates for the web development community, including Dreamweaver updates and new Edge Tools & Services, exclusively for Creative Cloud members. This also included the first release of Edge Animate (formerly known as Adobe Edge). With these new apps added to Creative Cloud, we've seen a tremendous appreciation from you – landing its rank at number four.
Moment #4 | Create Now Live
This online event pulls into the number three spot due to the big feature updates we were thrilled to announce for Creative Cloud members. Photoshop updates included Retina Display support and more, Muse acquired a way to create mobile versions for websites, and the very popular announcements of Creative Cloud for Teams and the addition of Creative Cloud Training. You can still watch the keynote and other snippets from the event on our Create Now Adobe TVchannel.
Moment #3 | Adobe & Behance
We're thrilled that the Behance community will be joining our family! 2013 holds more in store for how we deepen the connections between our creative tools and services via Creative Cloud and creatives like you around the world.
Moment #2 | Creative Cloud Launch
This is where it all began, which is why were placing this in the runner-up spot for our notable moments. Along with the launch of Creative Cloud, we were excited to introduce the new version of Creative Suite 6, loaded with major feature updates to all our CS applications.
Moment #1 | Top 3 Creative Cloud Facebook Posts
None of the moments up to this point would have mattered if it weren't for you, our community. A big thanks goes out to our Creative Cloud Facebook fans. We hit our 50,000 likes milestone just before the end of the year! Here's a look at our Fan favorite moments based on your engagement.
Firewater's A Little Revolution Music Video – The Making Of with Brian Yap
There's no denying the fact that Brian Yap is one talented Adobe Touch Apps user. We've seen his Touch Apps projectssuch as the Grovemade iPhone/iPad Cases, his demo videos on Adobe TV , and we're excited to bring you more of his great designs. This time around, Brian has lent his talents to the self-described "world punk" band Firewater for their recent music video titled "A Little Revolution."
We chatted with Brian to learn how he utilized his favorite app, Adobe Ideas, CS6 tools, and Creative Cloud in making of the music video. Check out our interview below and pick up some useful tips along the way.
Adobe: How did this opportunity to work on the Firewater music video project come about?
Brian Yap: Paul Griswold contacted me about working together for no reason other than seeing and liking my illustrations on an Adobe TV video – where I was using Adobe Ideas and talking about how it fit my style. We connected and talked a bit about wanting to collaborate on a fun project. Then, earlier this year, a friend of Paul's and musical hero of mine, Todd A., contacted him in the hopes that he could get help creating a music video on a tight budget. The band was Firewater and the video was created for the first single off their new album.
Live footage was shot in Turkey and was mixed with animation built from illustrations I did on the tablet with Adobe Ideas and then fine-tuned in Illustrator. The pieces were then animated with After Effects, as well as other programs outside of Adobe. Being able to work remotely made it possible for me to connect with these amazingly talented guys and get in on this project, without ever actually meeting them in person.
Talk us through your creative process. How did you approach this project?
I started by working with the team to come up with a bunch of visual concepts to illustrate. I began collecting references and sketching things out. The process was cool because I would feed Paul Griswold sheets of designs and pieces, and then when the test animations started, it lead to other ideas and concepts.
Usually, whenever someone tells you to just draw cool stuff, the first thing that happens is white paper freeze, but Firewater's music and the tracks from the new album are so filled with energy and ideas that it was easy to get things flowing and get into it.
Tell us why Adobe Touch Apps, specifically Adobe Ideas, was an ideal tool to use for this task?
I was able to work while traveling with Ideas and the Creative Cloud and keep all the many pieces and designs organized. Being able to draw while traveling for another project, or get out of the office or studio and work on this project really kept me inspired. The vector-based quality of Ideas meant that the process of cleaning up a sketch to make it finished and the way I wanted was super fast and easy so I could explore a lot more pieces quickly and feel okay about not sending everything.
What was the inspiration behind the images you created?
All the inspiration for the work I contributed to the piece was from the song. The tone of the music, the energetic and upbeat sound, and the themes in the lyrics, all helped to lead everything from color to what I was drawing. The video footage shot in Turkey had a "dance number" skew/protest march. It helped inspire me to keep the illustrations meaningful but usable in a way that matched the tone of the song.
Speaking of music, how critical does music play in your creative process? What genre or music gets you in a creative mode?
I'm definitely an aging music nerd. Everything I do is inspired by the music I listen to and when possible, like this project, actually part of the work. Todd A and Firewater's sound and big catalog were on constant repeat during this project, and I think I made some new fans for them around me because of it. A lot of time it's hip hop, like Ghostface Killah. When I need to slow it down, like when I'm sketching or playing with concepts, I get into bands with a more songwriting, musical exploration type feel. Lately groups like Manouk, Manchester Orchestra, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and instrumental outfits, like Red Sparowes, are as important to me working as the tools I use to draw.
What tips/suggestions do you have for creative individuals thinking about getting into Adobe Ideas?
The pinch and zoom allows you to work with an almost infinite sized canvas. Drawing on a tablet with a photo layer is an unbelievable way to keep a reference file, sketchbook and finished canvases all in the same place. I always say, just play around with it. Get used to the features and what it does and then make the tool work the way you work.
For veteran users like yourself, what tips and/or techniques can you offer?
I was using Ideas for a year before bothering to play much with opacity. It led me to a whole new way of drawing with Ideas that look like pencil by using a super low opacity and black or grey and just layering strokes. Always keep playing with the app. I think the simplicity makes it easy to use for everyone, but there are some smart guys behind this application and the ways we as artists use it is only fenced in by our imagination and willingness to adapt to a new artistic tool.

The Creative Process
From ideation to execution, every creative has a specific process. In a recent article by The 99 Percent, well-known musicians, comedians and writers shared their personal creative processes and success strategies.
One of our favorite quotes came from Jack White, "Force yourself. Deadlines make you creative." In this video, check out how Jack uses constriction to spur creativity for his band, The White Stripes:
How do you create? Check out The 99 Percent article for more inspiration.
The 99% Conference: Shifting from Idea Generation to Idea Execution
The 99% Conference – "1% inspiration and 99% perspiration" – wrapped up a couple of weeks back, and there have been some amazing conversations among leading creatives and visionary speakers. We've excerpted a few of them below, thanks to the wonderful recap from the 99 Percent team, and included snippets of a visual documentary of the event from illustrator Wendy MacNaughton. (more…)
Gorgeous Package Design
We're often told that we shouldn't judge a book by its cover. The same logic probably stands for other items that we buy. We just can't be sure that there will be a correlation between the quality of the package exterior and the quality of the contents within.
That said, package design is extremely important. All other things being equal, strong package design conveys a sense of comfort and quality to the consumer, while setting an expectation for the contents inside. We've uncovered a few recent examples of terrific package design for your inspiration.
Have you ever been persuaded to make a purchase simply for the beauty of a product? (more…)
Geometry Meets Design
Whether you're a math whiz or not, there's no denying that geometry has always played a large role in design. Shapes relate to one another and provide context among the rest of the design, and they can help to illustrate moods and emotions that enable the artist to convey certain messages.
To celebrate the role of geometry in design, we've highlighted a few pieces that play with the ideas of shape and space. Tell us in the comments – what do you love most about geometry's relationship with design? (more…)
Balancing Work and Life as a Creative Professional
Recently, The 99 Percent, a research arm and think tank of Behance, ran a terrific blog post about balancing work and life as a creative professional.
Terrific Typography on Behance
Typography is just one element of design, however, typography is also an art form itself. Good fonts blend in seamlessly, and complement their surrounding design with ease, while conveying the proper message to the viewer.
We scoured through some typography posts on Behance to pull together a collection of some terrific typefaces – some of which are even available for free download.
Tell us in the comments – what's your favorite font? (more…)
Net by Jason Boyer
Thoughtful design has countless elements and details that all come about through minute decisions on the designer's behalf. With this in mind, we love seeing thoughtful digital design. What's interesting about digital design is that one piece of art can be turned into several pieces of art by the subtraction and addition of various layers.
We encountered the work of Jason Boyer on Behance. His project, Net, nicely weaves together elements of geometry, collage, color and portraiture to create an alluring image that evokes a sense of futurism.
What's great about the way Jason displays his work is that it shows the project in various forms and renditions, with each piece capable of standing on its own, while fitting seamlessly into the project as a whole. Take a look at some of his work below and view the entire project in his portfolio.
Let us know in the comments: what's your take on the multiplicity of digital art? Do you prefer to share many pieces or just one singular creation?

The boy you punched in the hall today. Committed suicide a few minutes ago. That girl you called a slut in class today. She's a virgin. The boy you called lame. He has to work every night to support his family. That girl you pushed down the other day. She's already being abused at home. That girl you called fat. She's starving herself. The old man you made fun of cause of the ugly scars. He fought for our country. The boy you made fun of for crying. His mother is dying. You think you know them. Guess what? You don't! Re-post if you are against bullying.
