Meet Our Grooming Specialists
Erwin Castro
"At age 19 I told my mom I was moving to New York," says Erwin Castro. "Maybe I'll become a barber." 21 years later, Castro finds himself working at Barba as their official beard grooming specialist, finessing men's facial hair with pristine precision. The secret to his success is listening intently to what his clients are looking for in order to achieve the look they want. "Once a client knows I'm listening they're open to my input, and that's when the magic happens." His passion for his work is matched only by his superb sense of style. "I pay attention to detail and tend to be meticulous in all my work, be it shaving, cutting, or even simple trims."
Tyler Young, Stylist
Tyler Young is a prominent New York City hairstylist whose career change from the music industry led him to cosmetology where he has spent the last 5 years honing and perfecting his craft. Tyler, specializing in men's grooming and color, shines brightest when he has scissors in his hand and a client in his chair. His passion for stylish aesthetics is evident in his illustrious resume, which include, Oscar Blandi, Franco Costa, V76, and 2(x)ist, just to name a few. Rest assured if you hear him say "Oops, I did it again!" he hasn't messed up your cut, he's just reciting his favorite pop star's hit classic.
You can be confident when taking a little off the top when the person cutting your hair comes from the top. Kabira is a New York native who graduated with highest honors from The Aveda Institute and boasts over 10 years experience in barbering & hair styling. Kabira's philosophy: "Fashion doesn't dictate style; individual style dictates fashion." That philosophy carries over to the work she does for her clients. Her commitment to creating cuts and styles that reflect and enhance their individual style is obvious. Want further proof of her passion? She can be found drawing inspiration by literally drawing and sketching works of art at the Met Museum and neighboring galleries.
Younghawk Bautista
Fueled by iconic images from film and fashion, Younghawk Bautista's approach to hair and beauty is a hybrid of classic shapes combined with modern styling techniques to produce work that evokes a timeless, chic appeal.
In 2003 he trained at Vici Aveda Institute & Beauty in Milwaukee. where he received his advanced training with top experts in color, cutting and styling mentored him.
His solid education by American Crew, Goldwell, Bumble and Bumble and Vidal Sassoon formed his well rounded approach to hairstyling from many different angles, which has pleased many clients and collaborators alike.
Younghawk draws from these experiences to offer both trendy and sensible styles that compliment his clients unique characteristics.
As a little girl, Emily spent her time doing exactly what parents tell their kids not to do: play with scissors. From her own hair, to her clothes, to even her pooch, she practiced her passion. The dedication never dwindled and she earned her cosmetology degree in Toronto, Canada in 1999. She sharpened her skills for the next 4 years before moving to the United States in 2003. Like any good stylist, Emily continued evolving, taking classes to enhance her hair texturizing abilities, which she considers her specialty. She's color-certified through Wella, a program which raises the benchmark of creativity and technical skills for all hair professionals. If you're curious about how committed she is to her craft, just ask about the tattoo she got to honor her love for the job.
Antonio is the 30-year veteran in the world of beauty and cosmetology whose style is undeniable and whose fervor for the industry is palpable. His experience in the field is multi-faceted. He's done it all, from nail design and makeup, to owning his own beauty salon for nine years. His artistic and avant-garde approach to life has led him to venture into other endeavors, but make no mistake, he's always returned to his one true passion. His experiences taught him an array of techniques, all of which, have led him to develop one that is fast, precise, and effective. His relentless effort in developing this personal technique has made his journey in the industry a success and has even earned him his own unique hashtag, #theonlylooks.

This Tuesday was an ultra exciting day on television. We were graced with the mid-season premiere of Pretty Little Liars – with the intriguing #5YearsForward jump – and the series premiere of Shadowhunters, the new series based on Cassandra Clare's book series The Mortal Instruments. Obviously we are obsessed with both of these fandoms and as the good fangirls we are, we're dedicating an entire week to discussing these thrilling television debuts. Welcome to PLL/Shadowhunters Week on My Fangirl Life!
You know what my some of my favourite parts of this week's Pretty Little Liars & Shadowhunters premieres were? The opening tracks. I know it's weird but good tv theme songs make all of the difference. They reel you in. They set the mood. And then they become as iconic as the show itself.
In honour of these two excellent themes I have compiled a playlist of Modern TV Theme Songs. The requirements are simple: (1) Shows that have aired in my lifetime (preferable my fangirl lifetime) and (2) Themes that are actual songs. Ok I get that any song is a song (…yup, that is what I mean two say…) but I'm talking actual fully-developed pop tracks you might hear on the radio. I love the Game of Thrones theme (Who Doesn't?!) but you're no about to hear it on this weekend's Top 40 Countdown (or any Top 40 List of this millennium). I'll admit that there may be more iconic themes than those listed here (like The Addams Family or Gilligan's Island) but I'm going for a playlist. One you actually want to listen to at work or in your car or at the gym. One you could play from your friends and not have them stage an intervention regarding your television obsession. That being said, I may have thrown in the odd piece of nostalgia ? If you don't have all of the tracks just waiting in you iTunes, never fear! I made you a handy YouTube Playlist! Aren't I sweet?! Happy Listening!

The addictions that are hardest to deal with are those that we can't avoid on a daily basis. These are what some people consider the soft addictions, things like texting, internet use and shopping. But, in the strictest terms, these behaviors have all the hallmarks of an addiction just like drugs or alcohol. While they may not lead to death by overdose or disease, they certainly negatively impact on relationships and lead to breakdowns in the family, loss of jobs, loss of friends and absolute personal devastation.
So, how do you deal with daily activities that have crossed the line into addictions? This certainly isn't a simple question and it doesn't get a simple answer. There are some things you can do to create boundaries around the activities and start to take control.
1. Schedule and Track
One way to begin to bring addictions under control when you can't stop the activity for practical purposes is to schedule the activity and track your time, dollars spent or use. For example, if you have an addiction to being online set a timer for 1 hour and then, when the timer goes off, step away and shut off the computer.
Shopping addictions can be limited by time and money combinations. Allocate X amount of money and bring cash. Do not bring credit cards, debit cards or other sources of money. Then schedule a set amount of time in a store to spend that amount of money. When you reach either the time limit or the dollar amount you agree to stop shopping and move on to another very different activity. Try to make this activity very rewarding to you personally. It needs to be enjoyable to motivate you to leave one activity for another.
2. Be Accountable
Get a spouse, friend, family member or coworker you trust involved to help you stay accountable. You need to find someone you trust that will keep your goals and plans confidential if that is your wish. The more people that you have to be accountable for and the more those relationships mean the more support and encouragement you should find.
3. Reward Yourself
Set goals in your addiction recovery. I have provided lots of examples of goal setting in my book "The Law of Sobriety" which can provide concrete steps. Then, plan a reward for yourself when you reach those goals. The key is that the reward you choose cannot be more time doing the problem behavior. You have to choose something that is not the source of the addiction and not similar in nature.
Working through these types of addictions is tough. Working with a professional coach or counselor will provide you with ideas and insight to help you be successful in your goal to be addiction free.

Australian GP 2010
Race Notes - Jenson Button wins Australian GP
Jenson Button won his first victory of the season at the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park today in his McLaren-Mercedes, driving in commanding style over Robert Kubica in the Renault in second, and Felipe Massa in the Ferrari in third place.
After the race began in damp conditions, the reigning world champion switched to dry tyres early on putting him into second place, and when a brake failure ended polesitter Sebastian Vettel's day in the gravel trap, Button inherited the lead and never looked back.
Kubica held off Massa, Fernando Alonso in the other Ferrari, and Nico Rosberg in fifth in the Mercedes. Lewis Hamilton in the McLaren and Mark Webber in the Red Bull-Renault had stopped for new tyres in the middle of the race, and stormed back to challenge Alonso until a tangle with two laps to go saw Webber touch Hamilton, causing both men to spin off and continue, the Australian having to pit for a new nose. Hamilton finished sixth, Vitantonio Liuzzi taking seventh in his Force India-Mercedes, followed by Rubens Barrichello in his Williams-Cosworth, Webber in ninth, and Michael Schumacher in his Mercedes in tenth, taking the last point.
The win is Button's first for McLaren, and the eighth of his career.

The goal of the prototype is to unify the rationality of a design based on bioclimatic criteria aimed at favouring the characteristics of the environment with cutting-edge technological innovations.
The objective of this house is to arrive at a design which, as well as minimising its impact on the environment, achieves an optimum level of comfort in its interior.
As well as the challenges arising from the philosophy of the competition itself, the prototype will have to comply with certain necessary requirements for its transport. It will first have to travel by boat and then road as part of its assembly and disassembly at different events.
The general configuration consists of a box which is closed on its northern side and open on the southern side using different methods of dealing with the apertures on its facades according to the orientation. The box is covered with a plane turning 30º in respect to the horizontal, orientated towards the south and upon which the photovoltaic solar panels will be located and which will have small projections on the east, west and south facades.

Are you aware of the power you have through prayer!! The power you have to pray your way out of every storm and trial that comes your way–the power to pray for the mountains in your life that seem impossible to move. And Jesus has something to say about praying to the mountains in your life. Mark 11:22-24 Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. So Jesus gives us the choice to either climb mountains or speak to them. But leave it to Jesus to tag a huge condition to this great prayer promise in verse 25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive your sins. So let me ask you again…are you climbing mountains or speaking to them?
How to Speak to the Mountains in Your Life!

Jamison rarely speaks about himself in the third person, except for this post, which is an experiment in writing about himself for the "About Me" page.
He would greatly appreciate any comments you might have, whether harsh or otherwise.
What the Jamison?
Jamison, like all matter, is about 99.9% nothing. Actually he is Nothing, but labels are useful to humanize him.
Jamison is a consummate traveler, sojourner and vagabond. He is vain enough to tell you that he's visited over 40 countries in his life, and humble enough to feel guilty about it. He often flees locales and situations and searches vainly for happiness. This never works because he keeps taking himself whenever he goes. As the saying goes: "Wherever you go, that's where you are."
Jamison believes that he isn't his beliefs, and that such contradictions are part of the human condition. Hence, he can't prove anything except through his own direct experience. Jamison finds the "unknown" to be the scariest thing imaginable and so spends much of his time staring into that abyss. Fortunately and unfortunately, he often falls into that void, because as Nietzsche wrote: "If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
Liberation Practices
So in an effort to free himself from the void of depression, Jamison began meditating in the Vipassana (insight) tradition and writing openly and honestly about his life at www.JamisonWiggins.com. Through these practices he came to understand that his perception of the world, people and himself are largely delusional.
Past labels
Jamison been been an English teacher, door-to-door salesman, writer, painter, waiter, gardener, handy man, web designer, rescue diver, biology apprentic, conservation worker, development consultant, unprofessional therapist and freelance philosopher.
None of which he defines as his career or purpose.
Prior Locales
If you ask Jamison where he is from he'll tell you New York City but he was born in California moved London and then on to New York City, Massachusetts, Australia, North Carolina, New Zealand, Egypt, Uganda, Maine and Thailand.
The Present
Jamison is currently training to be a meditation teacher at Wat Chom Thong outside of Chiang Mai, Thailand. He also blogs about his experience and generally intends to let go of wordly things. He consistently fails at this endeavor and yet pursues it wholeheartedly.
You can ask him anything: firstname.lastname@example.com or click one of the social links to the right.
Don't forge to subscribe for updates!
This concludes my experiment in writing about myself in the third person. I'm noting that I'm clinging more to my ego, so I doubt I'll be experimenting in the same manner much more.
You can click on over the the About Me page, where the are more goodies.

Regardez: A Righchus Conversation Part One
For the Fifth installment of the Charleston Based Art Festival Kulture Klash more than 50 artists showcased work blending multiple inspirations, talents and media.The festival's original goals: to exhibit what is unique in the Charleston arts scene and to help give the city and the artists the publicity they deserve. With the incorporation of an additional night to highlight the artists in a more relaxed, approachable setting, it seems like the artwork has again taken center stage.There were several places in the enormous warehouse where live painting, photography, and preformances took place. Some of the more interesting points were the Starving Artist gallery where the particpants produced work over the period of a week to see if there would be an effect on the work. Scully Sullivan had a whimsical room set up in which the person or in many cases persons jumped on mini trampolines. When in the air a photo was snapped making the subject look as though they were floating. I got the chance to take one and I must say, it was so much fun, it was like being a kid again. There were several stages one mainstage and two others outside. I caught an energetic preformance from Short Shorts, and the song that I still can't stop humming is O.O.C. The art was definitely the star of the show there was work that was stunningly realistic but after close examination was painted and others that were extremly minimal. One such example was "Concrete" and inch thick slab of concrete casted in a large gold frame. I had to scratch my head at the "The Church of Art Sins," by Scott Debus and Jarrod Charzewski I just could not wrap my brain around it.
My reason for coming to this event was to see rapping prodigy Matt Bostick aka Righchus and former cipher rival turned super producer Max Berry preform. I did not get to see or meet Max but I was front and center for Righchus's very raw preformance of several song from his album Chaos Theory. I later spoke candidly with the man himself in a Righchus conversation.
A Righchus Conversation at Kulture Klash.
A few weeks ago I was invited to the Righchus Renaissance by friend Trey (Fletcher3)and that was my first meeting with rapper Righchus after listening to your first and latest album Chaos Theory several times I feel like I know you very well.
TFN: Where are you from?
Righchus: I'm from Charleston, North Charleston Acabee, Forest hills area between those two
TFN: Oh I know that area, I go to church in Acabee
Righchus:Oh really what church do you go to?
TFN: Mmmm it's a long name, I go to New Tabernacle 2nd Missionary Baptist Church.
Righchus: Oh cool my grandma, Lives in that area, My mom was in graduate school for nursing so I spent a lot of time with my grandma. My mom lives in Forest Hills so I stay with her sometimes too, I would stay with either of them.
TFN: Ok, Cool…In your raps or shall I say verses, you say "in the streets" quite a bit what do you mean by that?
Righchus: Its like to different worlds like when you collaborate the world how you and I know it the corporate and compared to the streets the streets has it own corporate world within illegal matters but when I say in the streets I refer to those people who don't get off there streets, outside of Charleston that's all they know so the things that they know are just different. They aren't exposed to a lot of the things that we are exposed to.
TFN: Ok When did you get started rapping?
Righchus : Third Grade.
TFN: Third Grade?!
Righchus: Third Grade.
TFN: Really?!! What was that first verse about?
Righchus:I don't even know something about mouse, house, couch…ouch…I dunno.
TFN:Oh Ok Cat in the Hat lyrics, Ha Ha…
For me my favorite song on the album is "definition of greatness what in the song I feel like your defining yourself as a person can you define yourself as Righchus the rapper, Who is that?
Righchus: Ummm Its… I'm glad you asked this question it's two different people the person is more like uh I have problems like every other person in the world but the rapper just kind of express the problems of that person through music, therefore people can relate to those problems we are all human so we tend to have the same problems you know and the problems only differ by what class we may be in, lower, middle, upper but sometimes those classes don't make a difference because some one in the upper my have the same problem as the on in the lower class may be going through its just about Righchus being the person that expresses the problems and as a result allows listeners to relate, Oh hey I go through that too, or I have that problem too. Its Honest!!!
TFN: And that's the wonderful thing about music everyone can get something out of it because its universal. I LOVE HIP HOP MUSIC but I have friends of different races that also love it so its all the same.
Righchus: So that the beauty of it.
TFN: Why are you "The Modern Martin Luther King", you said that in one of the songs on the album?
Righchus: OHHHHHHHHHHH I don't want any one to take that the wrong way. Because I don't think that I'm nowhere near or could ever be near what he did, Martin Luther King was just a person who stood out in his time period and to revolutionize and became an icon for what he did for the people at the time and for that culture. I'm coming up in this street culture of hip hop and in Charleston nobodies doing kind of what I'm trying to do. Charleston is one of the top ten deadliest cities in the nation and the music reflects that, but everyone may not have those problems so therefore I try to provide and alternative I'm on the other side of the spectrum.
TFN: What's weird is that were kind of from the same area and we don't come from broken homes and such.
Righchus: Right.Like I grew up in the hood (Acabee) but what does it matter if when I rap I'm saying the same thing as the other artists on the CD rack. So in the modern Martin Luther King line I just want to stand out and make something of our city, there is just so much potential in Charleston music wise and its just not get exposed because it so covered up with all the other bullshit.
TFN: And Kulture Klash is the perfect venue because its mixing so many different cultures.
Righchus: Everybody Everybody I Love it.
TFN: As far as art there is so much variety, there is a box Cathedral in the showroom! Its kind of ridiculous.
Righchus: Yeah I saw that, I saw that ,I was like "WHAT" there is a spoken word room hip hop, rock, alternative… its crazy its what we need.
TFN: When did you start writing the current album and how long did it take to write and how long in terms of production?
Righchus: What's crazy about the albums is every song with the exception of "Go Hard" was written back when I was seventeen.
TFN: And how old are you know?
Righchus: I'm twenty-one,It took so long because we went to so many studios trying to get recorded and we kept getting rejected and people kept standing us up. So it took about two years to build our own studio and develop the sound quality to where we could release it. Everything on that album was recorded in our own studio
TFN: Really?!
Righchus: Yeah!! A lot of people don't know that we bought all of that equipment and recorded it all ourselves
TFN: It sound is good!
Righchus: Yeah I think so it's pretty decent. We had to build that studio to record. A lot of these songs I hadn't even written down I free-styled a whole lot of that.
TFN: Oh WOW!!!
Righchus: It was a good experience and the writing reflects what was going on with me at the time in my life. Like "Go Hard" I don't know if it sounds different from the rest of the album because lyrically im at a whole other level now.
TFN: There is one freestyle that you did for the record and just preformed you said " I go hard like just before masturbation" I … no words
Righchus: Ha Ha, That line was crazy because we were just joking around in the studio and after I said it Max was like "No, we need to keep that!" so we did.
TFN: __Like its so stupid that it just works.
Righchus: Yeah
TFN: What did you learn about yourself after the release of this first album?
Righchus: Um…Man? I learned about work ethics uh and if you want something bad enough you can get it. I really wanted to put this out so I took my self to the limit to expose this an get it out so I just learned that I don't have boundaries and limits.
TFN: Do you have another album in the works and what's your direction?
Righchus: I'm putting out a mix tape soon but on Monday (11.9.09) I'm putting out a song from that mix tape. Are you following me on Twitter?
TFN: Im not on Twitter, but I am on Facebook.
Righchus: Your Not?!!
TFN: No, But I follow You on Facebook.
Righchus: Well its gonna be available there as well. It will be up Monday it's hot and called "Stone Cold"
TFN: Well I do A lot of Sartorial work on my blog as far as style is concerned,Can you just describe your personal style?
Righchus: Well its real simple, If I'm not going out or performing I will basically were some sperry's , I have two pairs of jeans that's all I own and some plain solid color t-shirts and maybe a hat to cover my ears up but that's about it I'm not too crazy. If I'm going on stage I wanna be comfortable.
TFN: Designers?

Ethiopia revisited! Absinthe Music & Mental Groove Records unite to reveal one of Geneva's best-kept secrets: Imperial Tiger Orchestra. While compilations of music of Ethiopian heritage are flooding the market, Imperial Tiger Orchestra offers a unique sound combining modern and traditional inspiration.The Orchestra's repertoire consists of revamped remakes of songs from the golden age of Ethiopian music: a powerful horn section, deadly percussions and relentless keyboards provide a merciless and efficient instrumental reinterpretation and improvisation based on original vocal songs. Preserving the natural beauty of melodies and Ethiopian sound while exploring uncharted territory, playing with textures and dynamics, adding distortions and noise to complete beautiful pieces, the self-proclaimed counterfeiters embrace dark hypnotic rhythms, obsessive basslines and grooves from electronic music. Far from any purist notions, the musicians surprise and delight with traditional Tha "phin" guitar mixed into traditional ethiopian "kebero" percussions. Just one example among many others. It's groove experimentation, it's improvisational heat.The mini-album opens with an interpretation of "Djemeregne" by Muluqen Mellesse, merging electro sounds and live jam, followed by "Bati", a traditional Ethiopian song recorded live in Addis. Dark atmosphere and powerful brass theme contrast with the sound of air phin, a traditional Thai guitar.The b-side starts with a powerful live version of Emnet by Mulatu Astatke, which undulates between the energy of free jazz and traditional Ethiopian sounds. The record ends with a tribute to the unavoidable Mahmoud Ahmed, "Etu Gela" and its obsessive bassline and haunting rhythm.

A woman in red was on my bed
And I was in her room instead!
This is a permanent case for those who don't believe that they can consummate with a degree of perfection. These people do not feel confident in meeting the needs of an aroused female. This results in an embarrassing situation.
People may be troubled with Male Impotence (Erectile Dysfunction, ED); where they cannot sustain their erection for even a good minute. They can also be suffering from Premature Ejaculation (PE), when they pass off almost instantly and are rendered worthless for actual penetration. ED is the clinical name for male impotence and it besets into the mindset making one's persona a weak one.
These people are ever in need for cures. They were first promised a vital remedy by synthetic drugs like Viagra and Levitra. Their performance graph on the bed rose but they incurred several defects in the process. Their ears, hearts, lungs, appetite all suffered. They yearned for remedies that would be free of side effects: herbal remedies for male impotence.
Psychological to physical to even emotional stresses and inherent problems like Diabetes cause the penis to work in a below-par manner. It can't control its erection as there is less blood in its wings. The sexual glands are also quite indolent and secrete deficient hormones.
When researchers found out a few gems for herbal impotence treatment, they did that with discretion. They dissected every underlying cause and cured these problems. These cures are quite effective and cheap and do not hamper the rest of body functions. Their special ingredients increase the sexual urge, stamina, enhances libido, delays ejaculation and even enhance the organ in length and girth.
Their dosages are quite easy to follow and a few months' regular intake may solve the penile problem permanently. They are also backed with genuine money back guarantees to lend credence to their promise.
Muoma Bark, Saw Palmetto, Ginseng, Maca, Tribulus Terrestris are some of the common herbal extracts that do wonder to a male's sexual potency. L'arginine regulates a steady generation of Nitric Oxide, a brilliant vasodilator that dilates penis for longer periods. These herbal cures work for 4 hours to 24 hours sand start showing effect just an hour after their intake. They take the person's confidence to a new level where he thinks that he can take give partners satisfaction. They also provide the pleasure of orgasms or climax during sex.
These extracts have been carefully combined to yield positive results. In cases where the herbs don't gel, an absorptive extract has been put in. After years of rigorous work, the scientists have been able to formulate certain cures that work on the dot.
Many of these are sold over-the-counter and need no prescriptions. They have been recommended by global doctors and can be bought through their respective sites to avail discounts and security.
Of course one can help these medicines better their performance through a few penile exercises and a cholesterol-free diet. Natural sleep and routine lifestyle also help.

"Our goal is to provide local industry with the trained workforce they need." – Dan Horine, USA
With college tuition rates rising and preparation for the 21st century workforce a more urgent priority than ever before, more U.S. students are turning to community colleges for their smaller class sizes and skills-oriented curriculum. Community college program head Dan Horine knows first-hand how the needs of employers are driving enrollment and schools like Virginia Western Community College. The 70-acre campus has grown from 1,352 students when the school opened in 1966 to over 10,000 today.
In fact, Horine says that the impetus for starting the school's Regional Advanced Technology Academy came from the area's businesses. He told the local newspaper, "Our goal is to provide local industry with the trained workforce they need."
To do this, Horine has helped to create a dual enrollment program, targeting students while they're still in high school. Key to reaching these digital-native younger students are online programs like Tooling U, which partners with educators to provide accessible training in manufacturing skills.
Connecting students with real-life skills is increasingly important, whether they're using the global standard work tools in Office 365, or acquiring the specific trade skills that local employers are demanding. And innovative educators like Dan Horine are helping to lead the way. Enjoy today's Daily Edventure.

For many millions of Britons, the working day starts with a journey. It may be many miles or not so many; it may take hours or could be numbered in the minutes.
But whether on foot or by car, bus, train or tram, we travel to our places of work.
And while many people use that time to listen to music, read – or check up on social media and email – others have discovered that you happily use it as art time.
My morning journey usually takes around half an hour on two buses, so there's not really time to sketch much, while I find that having nothing to rest on is awkward, particularly when you're moving as well.
Then there's always the question of whether people will be getting off at the next stop, leaving you with just the beginnings of a sketch.
But since I have, for the best part of the last year, adopted a routine of travelling early and then spending an hour over coffee in a café near work, that's the drawing time.
It makes a good and relaxing start to a day, but it's also a discipline and a challenge – the former simply because it has now become a habit to sketch/draw every day, which is good practice, and the latter, simply because of subject matter.
There's only so many times I can draw what's on the table in front of me or my surroundings.
Sometimes, I've created a still life out of what's in my bag or even something I've carried with me for the purpose.
If there isn't time to actually get out the pens and sketchbook on the bus, there's often time to snap off a surreptitious shot on my phone – and then draw from that when sitting down with a coffee.
Street photography taught me some years ago that people are often oblivious to a great big camera being pointed in their direction, so the smartphone version is no difficulty.
That having been said, though, it does mean that all of the pictures are particularly well lit – even more so at this time of year when my morning journey takes place well before it's light – while focus can also sometimes be a bit askance as we jolt around London's roads.
But that, I think, can also add to the challenge – not least because a lack of precise detail can help you remember to look for the spirit of the picture without fretting about it being photographic (a trap I can still fall into).
It's particularly fascinating to see how people lock themselves into a personal bubble, often – but not always – with music and/or social media/email.
There's a tendency to consider these things as the preserve mainly of the young – to an extent that, in Germany at least, it's even entered the language.
In a look at some of the best new words or phrases of the past year, mentalfloss.com highlighted the delightful 'Generation Kopf unten' – or 'generation head down' to give it its literal translation – as being a description of the generation that is always looking down at assorted devices.
As a slight aside, I love the combination of wonderful German literalness of this – the nation's language keepers did worry about whether a TV picture should be 'on' or 'in' the screen – and the sense of it representing a far wider idea.
Anyway, as some of the sketches here show, it's far from being a generational rule in London.
People are, of course, fascinating. And catching them candidly offers a totally different result than having anyone pose for you.
One of the things that these illustrate is the sense of how people use the in-between time that bridges home and work, when our options are limited by the facts of the journey, but these days, increased by technology.
But perhaps that is also indicative of why I hear so very few actual conversations on the bus too. They reveal a sense of isolation that is also indicative of a big city.
In the winter, when people are bundled up against the inclement weather, that isolation – that creation of a personal bubble – seems even more complete.
I'm beginning to see this as a project. After all, it records a different London from the one so often recorded: this is an early-morning city of ordinary people going to work, getting themselves psyched for the working day ahead – the motor of the capital.
They range from administration staff to cleaners some of the thousands of construction workers that are changing the landscape of the city – and goodness knows how many more roles that the city rarely celebrates, but without which it could not survive.
The evening bus rides home are different: more crowded and more noisy – not least with young people heading home from school and college, plus shoppers with the same aim in mind.

The evening bus rides home are different: more crowded and more noisy – not least with young people heading home from school and college, plus shoppers with the same aim in mind.
I hope you enjoy the selection of pictures posted here: it's probably fair to say that, since these have all been done in the last three months, I'm on the cusp of becoming expert at drawing huge, padded coats.
Some are very light sketches. Other, depending almost entirely on what I was able to snap and from what position, are closer to portraits. I think that both sorts have a value.
From the top, the first one was done this morning – and what a wonderful look of concentration she has.
In the second, the huge hood makes me think of a fantasy character: every time that I look at this I think that he could be a modern version of Aragorn from Lord of the Rings.
There's no gadget component to the third, but again, what a characterful face – and that is worth its weight in gold.
In the fourth, her beautifully-done hairstyle made me think of Josephine Baker, while I found it amusing that she was 'plugged' in to two devices.
The fifth down was the first I did (and is the only one done in sepia ink) and again, the concentration is extraordinary.
The sixth has a lovely sense of dignity – it was the one time thus far I've been tempted to add colour, since her dainty umbrella was red: a massive contrast with the heavy clothing.
The seventh also shows great dignity – and great serenity; newspaper folded neatly on his lap as we approached his stop.
The eighth is one of the sketchier pieces, but gives a little more of a sense of physical context.
The ninth gives more context yet, but still conveys the sense in which, at that time of day, people are very much in their own bubbles and concentrating on the day ahead
All are in black India ink (apart from the one mentioned above), on light-weight 16.5x15.5cm paper that is slightly tinted. I have made sure that all scans are on the same basis.

The 56th annual Atlantic Coast Conference tournament is about ready to tip off, as it leaves the Carolina region for a trip to Atlanta, with Georgia Tech playing host. This has been the premier event in postseason college basketball for years and 2009 should be no different. North Carolina is the overwhelming favorite at -175 to cut down the nets Sunday afternoon; however a cloud of doubt has arisen as junior guard Ty Lawson is questionable for the opener and possibly for the whole tournament with a badly swollen right toe according to coach Roy Williams. Smart bettors know it is Lawson, not Tyler Hansbrough that makes the Tar Heels play most efficiently. Here is a game by game look at the opening round.
Miami vs Virginia Tech 12 Eastern
Miami (7-9, 7-8-1 ATS in ACC) starts the festivities with Virginia Tech in the tournament opener in a 8 vs 9 matchup and are favored by 3.5-points at Bookmaker.com, having won three of last four contests. The Hurricanes lean on two-time All-ACC selection Jack McClinton. The junior guard sets the table for Miami offense and leads the conference in three point accuracy at 46.4 percent. If the games are close, McClinton is a big reason why the Hurricanes are 7-0 ATS as a neutral court favorite or pick over the last two seasons as he converts 88.5 percent from the charity stripe.
Virginia Tech (7-9, 6-10 ATS) fell apart late in the season, losers of six of last seven, including three in a row. The Hokies have been burying backers as well, on 2-7 ATS skid, as they are not receiving enough contributions from leading scorers A.D. Vassallo and point guard Malcolm Delaney. If Virginia Tech is going to move to 17-6 ATS as a neutral court underdog or pick, their scoring tandem must come through.
The winner advances to same time slot Friday to face top seeded North Carolina.
Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2:20 Eastern
Georgia Tech was 2-14 (6-10 ATS) in ACC action and earned the last seed. The Yellow Jackets were a rambling wreck with too many young players in a ruthless league. Georgia Tech lost eight of last nine and is 5-12 ATS after one or more consecutive losses this season. The Jackets were beaten twice by Clemson and failed to cover the spread either time.
Clemson (9-7, 8-7-1 ATS) could well have had today off; unfortunately, they lost three of last four, which lowered them to fifth seed. The Tigers didn't have any teeth at crunch time in those losses and their defensive weakness is guarding opponents once they break their press, surrendering far too many easy baskets once broken down. Clemson went to the title game last year and will seek that magic elixir that got them their in 2008. "We're going to go back to practice and hopefully try to catch fire and get back to the championship," said forward Trevor Booker.
Clemson is a 9.5-point favorite, however is just 10-25 ATS on the road after allowing 80 points or more. The winner moves on to take on Florida State.
N.C. State vs Maryland 7 Eastern
Both the Wolfpack and the Terrapins arrive at the Georgia Dome with seat belts attached and treys in upright position after a bumpy close to the season. N.C. State (6-10, 10-5-1 ATS) lost four of last six ACC affairs, including one to Maryland. The Wolfpack are the 10th seed and are hoping for some of the same magic they made two seasons ago. In 2007, they were a No.10 seed and caught fire, riding it all the way to ACC title tilt, before losing to North Carolina. The club from Raleigh is listed as 1.5-point underdogs and is 7-19 ATS after playing a game as an underdog over the last two campaigns.
Maryland (7-9, 8-8 ATS) was having a very average season until they caught everyone's attention in upsetting North Carolina at home in overtime 88-85 on Feb. 21. Since the upset they are 1-3 SU and ATS. The Terps wouldn't even be a seventh seed except for point guard Greivis Vasquez, having frequently been asked to carry the load for a team light on talent in a conference of this quality. The junior will on occasion come unglued and make bad choices, like in the last game loss at Virginia, with questionable judgments when the game was on the line. Maryland has won and covered last four games against N.C. State, however is mere 3-10 ATS on neutral courts.
Whoever survives has second seeded Wake Forest on tap.
Virginia vs Boston College 9:20 Eastern
In the first day finale, Boston College is 4.5-point choice to surpass 11th seeded Virginia. The Eagles look solid for making the field of 65 on Sunday, but one more win at least only gives a greater level of comfort. Boston College (9-7, 7-9 ATS) already has resume building wins over North Carolina and Duke. Tyrese Rice and Rakim Sanders give the Eagles exceptional backcourt play and B.C. is 25-10 ATS after a game where they made 20 percent of their three-point shots or worse.
It has been another dismal campaign for Virginia with just four wins (8-8 ATS) in the ACC. The Cavaliers are only 9-23 the last two seasons in conference play, their worst two year stretch in a decade. Virginia is only 1-9 away from home (6-4 ATS) and coach Dave Leitao is trying to keep positive attitude. "Obviously you're the one that drives the bus, and so a lot of times it kind of starts and ends with you. It's difficult, but at the same point in time, it doesn't shake both my confidence and my will of thought to know that we're doing the right thing and we're going in the right direction."
It's rather easy to make a case, Virginia is the worst team in the ACC, finishing last in the in field-goal percentage (41.8) and field-goal percentage defense (43.8). To complete the inept trifecta, they were last in three point shooting at 31.1 percent. Based on how things have been playing out in Charlottesville, it doesn't take a degree from Virginia to understand 17-30 spread record in March.
The victor draws Duke Friday night.

Actually, I have read the docs, have ensured that vsftpd is not running under xinetd (vsftpd.conf file shows listen=YES, listen_port=318); I am *not* listening for IPv6. I can't start the daemon. Running /etc/rc.d/init.d/vsftpd status shows "vsftpd dead but subsys locked". This occurs each and every time unless I remove listen_port= from the conf file and let the daemon use port 21. Soooo...I'm stuck and while I know I can get this working with proftpd, I'd rather not for obvious security reason. Thanks again, in advance, for any replies. Regards, ~Ray

Massey University library just completed a user survey and the comments make very interesting reading. The main issues seem to be
- lack of computers
- students spending too much time on said computer on Facebook/Bebo, etc and not studying
- not enough electrical outlets for laptop users
- lack of study space
- too noisy
The third one is indicative of the age of library buildings. When they were built there were no computers or any need for lots of power outlets.
But is this last one the result of libraries becoming too PC and creating a more sociable environment? Students are uncomfortable with telling others to 'shut up' so they can study in peace. Yet librarians are reluctant to become 'law' enforcers. What's the answer?
Just my thoughts on a Friday afternoon. It's been a long week.
Have a good weekend!

Running a business is not as easy as it seems. Restaurant managers have to deal with various personality types, create workable schedules, run back and forth to identify situations that need guidance, correct mistakes, provide feedback, deal with employee requests, and so on. In short, running a restaurant is a balancing act that requires resilience and determination, not a miracle. It also calls for effective managerial tools and software, and of course, the right skills and talents. If your intention is to learn how to run a restaurant like a pro, here are a few tips for you:
Prioritizing starts with learning how to handle tasks in order of importance. Since it is impossible to deal with everything at the same time, prepare a list with the minimum tasks that must be performed to keep your restaurant open and work your way up from there.
Taking the time to listen to your workforce is something you must become skilled at if you wish to learn how to run a restaurant painlessly. Learn to listen to their needs and treat them with respect even as you demand to be treated with respect. For a restaurant to become successful, it must have employees who care. If you treat your employees well, they will treat your business well in turn.
Sometimes, angry customers and employees may try to take advantage of you or to manipulate you, especially when you are new. In such circumstances, try to stick to restaurant rules and policies and don't be tempted to give in just because a customer or an employee is yelling at you.
Taking a time out is also something you must learn to do whenever a customer or an employee gets abusive, especially when restaurant policy does not allow customers to be kicked out for being abusive or rude. Since it's your right to avoid abuse, walking away might be the best option in such circumstances.
Getting to know your customers will go a long way in making you a great manager. Try to know your customers by name and address them by their names whenever possible. This will make them feel welcome and valued.
Leading by example will motivate your employees and endear you to them at the same time. Do not hesitate to get behind the grill or to help out in any way during an unexpected rush.
Learning how to run a restaurant also means being open to innovation. Embrace new ideas, trends and latest technology, such as employee scheduling software , to keep your restaurant competitive and also to improve customer experience.
Keeping in constant touch with your boss or the owner of the restaurant is part of being a responsible manager. Doing so will keep the owner updated and this will make him or her feel that the business is in good hands.
Guessing games are a thing of the past. Try it free.

Continued from Part 4…
Just after the three-month post-surgical mark, I had another follow-up appointment with my urologist. I had had some significant time to recover since the surgery, of course, and I wasn't doing too badly. I was mostly-healed internally; thankfully, I had stopped peeing pink liquid. The continuing complaints I had were urgency and frequency with regard to my bladder behavior. I was also unhappy with the persistent tightness in my pelvic area that coincided with those symptoms and resulted in more trips to the restroom than I was really comfortable with. And the number of times I awoke during the night, to get up to urinate, continued to be problematic.
During this particular chat with the urologist, I made the observation that after years, yes decades, of frequent bathroom visits, I believed both my body and mind were still products of their long-term behavioral training. Despite the surgery, it appeared, my system was so accustomed to the bathroom ritual that it continued on, despite the radical intervention.
The doc seemed to agree, and named other cases he had had that were similar to mine. He indicated that he been thinking about a strategy to address this condition: unfortunately, it involved yet another medication. He recommended a small dose of a low-risk, low-side-effect drug to control bladder behavior. ("It's so mild they can give this to infants," he said.) Although I wasn't thrilled to take on yet another long-term medication (I had just recently disposed of my stash of Flomax, which I had been on for years), it seemed like a reasonable thing to try … especially when he indicated that we could view this as a temporary fix until my body could re-train itself. The drug involved is Oxybutynin, and I have been taking the 5-mg pill once a day since March 16, 2012 (just over thirteen months now).
For me, Oxybutynin has been only a partial solution. I had a short-term adjustment period getting used to the side effects (mostly dry mouth), but my body gradually came around to accepting the drug. And, over time, the tightness in my pelvic area became less pronounced and my bladder better behaved. However, given that I'm still taking it, this has obviously become a longer-term "temporary" fix than I'd anticipated.
A few months after I'd started on the Oxybutynin I was still having problems with frequency, so I was referred to a physical therapist specializing in bladder issues. (Yes, really, there are such therapists!) The whole physical-therapy experience will be the topic of my next entry.
OK, I lied. I said I was going to continue on with my description of the prostate-surgery recovery, but, as you can see, I never did follow up. So, just let me try to tie up loose ends very briefly. I did see a physical therapist for a while and she was very helpful. The remedy, which turned out to be quite effective (in addition to the Oxybutynin medication), is a routine called "Kegel exercises" – or "pelvic floor exercises." As I write this here, in March of 2015, I still do this every day, and control of my bladder remains manageable. For a description of this technique, click here.

Chakku the monkey chieftain tries to control his chubby tribe.
Living near a Buddhist temple in the hills means Chakku and his monkeys are regularly fed (and fed well) by pilgrims. His monkeys are getting so fat that they break the branches they sleep on. When Chakku overhears the human priest announce a day of fasting, the monkey chieftain decides his tribe must fast as well, mostly to lose weight but also for the spiritual benefits. Once he explains what fasting is, Chakku faces an all-out (if slightly sneaky) rebellion. On fast day, Bonnet suggests they meditate under the shade of the banana trees instead of in the sun. Macaque interrupts meditation to suggest they sit in the trees to be closer to heaven. Bonnet suggests they each just hold a banana to be ready when the fasting is over—and the fast ends pretty swiftly. Viswanath's adaptation of an old Buddhist tale about temptation and dedication entertains with the extra emphasis on monkey weight loss (a twist not found in the original). Ranade's hyperdistorted charcoal illustrations make the monkeys look like demonic pears and figs; though striking and evocative, they may trick readers into thinking they are spiders rather than monkeys. "Fun Facts About Fasting" follow the story.
An amusing folk tale equally suited to multicultural programming and wellness collections, if not monkey-themed storytimes. (Picture book/folk tale. 3-6)

the science dealing with implants.
implantologyA formal term referring to the surgical techniques used to functionally rehabilitate mandibular or maxillary bone rendered edentulous by the vicissitudes of life—e.g., age, attrition, trauma. In the widely preferred Swedish method, dental implants are placed in a two-step process:
(1) A threaded titanium anchor with scaffolding is drilled into the bone and left in place for 2 to 6 months so bone forms around it, resulting in osteointegration.
(2) A tooth surrogate is screwed in place of a missing tooth.

The trouble with our right to bear arms is that people who should not walk among us wielding weapons…… can.
People in a myriad of circumstances and life situations are empowered to enact justice as they see individually fit. Justice is in the eye of the beholder, and if one brandishes a weapon, he or she is armed to impose it.
In much the same way, able-bodied people can have children. There is no license required in the United States to procreate. Regardless of socioeconomic state, health status, drug usage status, criminal history, general irresponsibility, people can have children.
That said, far too many people, armed with words as weapons and reproducing hate in scores, lob a phrase into the world that makes it appear that they are compassionate while raining judgment down on anyone who doesn't agree with their way of life. What is that phrase? It's this:
Never mind the inaccuracy with which the scriptural interpretation is wielded. Never mind that the implication is that this is a direct Christ command. Never mind that Jesus left two commands, both rooted in love and devoid of hate.
The very idea of loving while hating is contrary to human nature. I don't know about you, but I can't do both at the same time. So, I'm working to choose to just do one of these. I'm working on just loving the sinner. While I do, I'm hoping that everyone else I know does, because we're all characterized in that description.
Do you think you're doing someone a solid by professing to love them while you hate who they are or what they do? Doesn't sound very solid to me. Sounds weak, empty, condescending, and isolationist.
Here's my thought for the next time that phrase pops in your head…
Don't do it. Tomorrow Begins Today.

A full circle top entry door, boasting a circular window quartered by lead and jeweled with a crystal sphere. The flaked Lacewood panel is a pleasing complement to the figured grain of the Sapele framework.
The Butler
A simple combination of horizontal and vertical, beveled and flat panels. In stark contrast to the lighter Hickory and Birdseye Maple, the dark Wenge shelf visually slices the unique wooden door into a Dutch design.
Chartres Gothic
Named after Chartres Cathedral in France, this arched Gothic entry door is built entirely from American Black Cherry wood. Hand-carved vinework graces the top of the arch, adding a unique elegance unmatched by machine.
Craftsman Dutch
This simple all-Afrormosia door features raised panels and leaded glass. The cranberry-colored Bloodwood makes a crisp window stop and Dutch shelf.
Prairie Style
Purity of geometry is what drives the Prairie Style entry door. Reminiscent of details drafted by the great Frank Lloyd Wright, leaded stained glass punctuates the corners of the window. Bloodwood pegs highlight the door's structure, solidly constructed of Quartersawn White Oak.
Lone Wolf Orc
The original 'Lone Wolf' door is the Orc. Usually manufactured from our Reclaimed Douglas Fir, this door is built to mark the territory of great men: thinkers, dreamers, and doers. A patchwork of distressed metals skins the panels, flanking the triptych of leaded windows.
A harmonious arrangement of panels is what identifies the Quartet. Perhaps the door boasting the most contrast in material, dark Wenge panels sit inside an Eastern Hard Maple frame.
The dynamic angles of the Lacewood herringbone paneling are soothed by the rich mocha tones of this door's Walnut framework. The crowning touch of this specialty interior door is a multicolored shelf, crafted with strips of a variety of exotic hardwoods.
Equestrian Crossbuck
The simplicity of the Equestrian Crossbuck is a tribute to early craftsmanship. This door is a suited addition to a barn's exterior as an entry door. The warmth of the Rustic Alder also makes it a great choice for your interior door style.
The Raven
The dark writings of Edgar Allen Poe unveil the mystery of the Raven door. This stately design is enriched by the deep chocolate brown tones of Wenge. "Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore'."
