Ejaculation Preserving Treatment for Men with Enlarged Prostate and Urinary Retention in NYC
Can Ejaculation Problems be Avoided in Surgical Treatment of Enlarged Prostate?
Traditional prostate surgeries such as TURP, bipolar TURP, and laser enucleation of the prostate result in a high incidence of ejaculation problems. Lack of ejaculation, also known as retrograde ejaculation or anejaculation, is one of the most common side effects of prostate surgeries.
While anejaculation or lack of ejaculation is not dangerous, it can be bothersome to patients and their sexual partners who are conditioned to expect ejaculation after intercourse and masturbation.
Orgasm and Ejaculation: Important Distinctions
While orgasm and ejaculation are separate events because they occur simultaneously, many men associate orgasm with ejaculation. Many men who need to have treatment for enlarged prostate or urinary retention worry that they will not have an orgasm if they do not have ejaculation after undergoing a procedure such as bipolar TURP and Greenlight laser ablation of the prostate.
It is important to realize that ejaculation and orgasm at 2 separate events. Patients who have a normal orgasm before prostate surgery can expect to have normal orgasm after treatment for enlarged prostate with procedures such as TURP, bipolar TURP, and ablation or enucleation procedures with Greenlight laser or Holmium laser (HoLEP / HoLAP). Orgasm will be preserved even if there is no ejaculation.

Men Who Cannot Ejaculate or Orgasm Before Prostate Surgery
Some men with neuropathy (most often caused by diabetes) experience a lack of orgasm, which is unrelated to prostate surgery.
There are some men who are unable to have an orgasm for one reason or another. Most commonly, this occurs in people with diabetes or other neurological conditions that affect the nerves that control orgasmic function. Having prostate surgery will not have a noticeable change since these men lack orgasm to start with.
Similarly, men who are unable to ejaculate prior to surgery, which is common in men with an enlarged prostate, will not see a noticeable change after surgery since they did not have ejaculation prior to surgery. There are no established effective treatments to recover ejaculation or orgasm in men who are unable to either orgasm or to ejaculate.
While the Urolift procedure is associated with some improvement in ejaculatory function, it may be of limited benefit to patients with very large prostates and patients with neurological problems such as diabetes.
Surgical Technique to Preserve Ejaculation in Men Undergoing Prostate Surgery.
Modern treatment for an enlarged prostate has evolved. Procedures such as the Urolift stent and Rezum procedure for BPH do not affect ejaculation function, and as a matter of fact, the ejaculatory function is improved in many men who undergo these procedures. Urolift and Rezum are good options for men with small and medium-sized prostate and moderate urinary symptoms.
For men with severe symptoms of an enlarged prostate, high postvoid residual, and urine retention, Urolift and Rezum for BPH procedure are not likely to be sufficiently beneficial. For these men, new surgical techniques have been developed in an effort to minimize the chances of anejaculation after surgical procedures for enlarged prostate, such as bipolar TURP (epTURP), laser enucleation of the prostate, Greenlight laser, Aquablation, and Holmium laser.
Ejaculation Preserving Prostate Surgery in New York City
At New York Urology Specialists, we perform prostate surgery with ejaculation preserving intent if so desired by the patient. It is important to understand that there is no guarantee that ejaculation preserving surgery will succeed in its intent to preserve ejaculation. However, studies show that 70-80% of men preserve ejaculation function after ejaculation-preserving TURP surgery. Similar results are achievable with ejaculation preserving laser enucleation of the prostate and laser ablation of the prostate.
Technical Considerations
Performing prostate procedures with ejaculation preserving intent requires the preservation of about 1 cm of tissue at the apex of the prostate. The desired benefit of this modification to the standard TURP procedure is the preservation of ejaculatory function. The downside of ejaculation-preserving modification to prostate surgery is that prostate tissue is incompletely removed which may result in suboptimal surgical benefit when it comes to improvements in the urine stream, postvoid residual volume, and improvement in urinary symptoms. Usually, the difference in urinary function is not significantly between standard and ejaculation-preserving technique. With both approaches, expected improvement in urinary function is very significant compared to what men experienced before surgery.

by Charles Thompson on Jul 06, 2019
I am a 54 year-old male who is extremely happy with my care at New York Urology Specialists. I came to see Dr. Alex out of near desperation after consulting with three other urologists. Literally over one night, I began experiencing severe penile pain and burning. None of the other urologists were able to help diagnose what my problem was and seemingly didn't take my problem very seriously. In fact, one of them specifically told me at it had nothing to do with my prostate. After 6 weeks of suffering, I saw Dr. Alex. He examined me and gave me some tests and lab work. He very quickly ascertained that my problem was due to an enlarged prostate. He proscribed medicine to deal with my pain in the short-term and keep my prostate size in check over the long-term. My problem quickly disappeared. Today, 5 years later, I feel great. Dr, Alex listens to you as a patient, takes your opinion and health concerns seriously and knows his field inside-and-out so that you can get proper treatment for your problem. I can't thank him enough for diagnosing and solving my malady - you sometimes can't appreciate a problem until you have it. Getting rid of it and getting back to normal is so important - I am so glad that I saw Dr. Alex for my problem.

Just recently, the new headquarters for the Barton Group was awarded LEED Platinum, a noteworthy achievement for an historic building originally built in 1865. The building appears to be only the seventh Platinum building in New York (and the 105th in the country) and was a finalist for ED+C's 2008 Excellence in Design Awards. The 16,000 square foot building now has a green roof, energy-efficient windows, a raised floor for air and electrical, a rainwater collection system, and a number of other green features:
- reused 97% of existing building structure;
- geothermal heating and cooling;
- 100% wind power source for electrical;
- office furniture from recycled materials;
- state-of-the-art ventilation and lighting;
- shower rooms for bicyclers; and
- preferred parking for low-emissions vehicles;
As you all likely understand, obtaining LEED Platinum on an existing building such as this involved considerable and concerted effort. First, the owner ended up having to rent land from the city in the parking lot to install the geothermal (because negotiations with neighbors did not go through). Second, the structure had to be strengthened to provide for the modular green roof. In the end, though, the project team obtained critical experience renovating an historic building and the community will continue to benefit from everyone's commitment.

The top 5 items of aviation memorabilia are a treasure trove of delights from the early years of man-made flight.
5. Amelia Earhart Goggles
Amelia Earhart first captured the public's attention in 1928, after becoming the first aviatrix (yes, that is the correct term) to fly solo across the Atlantic. Fuelled by Charles Lindbergh's earlier success in 1927, Earhart was eager to make a name for herself and did just that, becoming the first woman to receive the US Distinguished Flying Cross, among numerous other awards for her superior flying skills.
These Luxor Number 6 goggles, sold in 2011 for $17,775, were worn by Earhart during her first crash in July 1921 and still bear a crack in the lens to prove it. Collectors had a chance to complete Earhart's iconic look when her flying hat sold through Heritage Auctions in 2005 for $16,730.
4. Wright Brothers first cheque
Its always nice when one of our own items makes the list, but unfortunately this one is no longer available to our customers. This is the first company cheque issued and autographed by the Wright Brothers.
The Wright brothers are often credited with inventing the first aircraft, but in fact were the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing flight possible. This cheque was the first issued by the pair following the comany's change from Wright Cycle co. to Wright Brothers, a name that would change the face of aviation history forever.
While we no longer have the first cheque signed by the brothers, we do have this fantastic cheque autographed by Orville Wright.
3. Baron von Richthofen's scarf
This is the silk scarf worn by Baron Manfred von Richthofen, aka The Red Baron, at the time of his death in 1918. Officially credited with 80 air combat victories, Richthofen was considered one of the best German pilots of the first world war.
The scarf was worn by the baron when he was hit by a single .303 bullet, which pierced his heart and lungs during a low altitude chase with a Canadian fighter. It was sold for $34,500 in March 2005, along with other items of clothing removed from his body following the subsequent crash.
2. Spirit of St Louis mail
In 1927, Charles Lindbergh became the first man to cross the Atlantic in a non-stop solo flight. Rising to the challenge set by New York hotel owner Raymond Orteig, Lindbergh flew from New York to Paris in his purpose built airplane, the Spirit of St Louis, securing himself the $25,000 reward in the process.
On board Lindbergh's groundbreaking flight were three pieces of mail which have since become extremely popular collector's items. In 1999, one of the letters sold for an impressive $155,000, a dramatic rise in value from the $35,000 achieved by the same letter in 1977.
Paul Fraser Collectibles is currently offering this menu autographed by Charles Lindbergh, originating from the banquet which was held in his honour following his daring feat.

People prefer different environments for falling asleep.
While some like having ambient sounds or music playing in the background, others like absolute silence. If you spend most of the time amidst too much sound, you may need the latter.
If you belong to the second category, you may have thought about using earplugs for sleeping.
However, as you may have noticed, there are still many grey areas when people talk about using earplugs to fall asleep and stay asleep.
In this article, we have answered some of the common questions you might have about this process. So, if you need comprehensive coverage on the use of earplugs as a sleep inducer or enhancer, you should read along.
Why Do People Use Earplugs for Sleeping?
First, we will talk about earplugs. As you may already know, earplugs are used to protect your ears from loud noises, especially working in industrial areas.
Continuous exposure to loud noises can impact your hearing while also causing long-term health risks. To fix these problems, people came up with earplugs. The earplugs stay so tight in one's ears that loud noises cannot reach the ears.
At the same time, it was also found that an earplug can provide complete silence during everyday scenarios, such as when you are at home sleeping. Then, it did not take long for people to start using earplugs for better falling asleep.
There are several reasons why people use earplugs for sleeping. Some of them are:
- They may live in an area where there is constant noise. It could be a railway track or a freeway. Or a factory may be producing so much noise so that they cannot fall asleep. In short, ambient noise that can prevent people from falling asleep is a common reason to use earplugs.
- People with snoring partners may also use earplugs for sleeping. In scenarios where they must stay in the same room, a pair of earplugs will be the only solution. On the other hand, if you happen to have a partner who needs white noise or ambient sounds to fall asleep, you may need earplugs.
- Finally, some people are very sensitive to sound. They may wake up even when a small thing happens around them. Of course, these constant wakeups will negatively impact sleep quality in no time. A pair of earplugs seem to be a perfect solution for this problem.
While these are merely some examples, anyone who needs to stay away from ambient sounds might use an earplug.
However, sleeping with earplugs in your ears comes with its share of benefits and problems. We will have a brief look at both.
Benefits of Sleeping with Earplugs
Here are the most significant benefits of sleeping with earplugs.
- A good pair of earplugs can protect your ear from loud noise. It means you can fall asleep quickly and stay asleep for an extended period. Even if you are very sensitive to sound, using an earplug will offer some solutions since these devices can block the passage of sound completely.
- Because you do not wake up intermittently and fall asleep at the desired times, using earplugs to fall asleep will have a long-term impact on your sleep quality. As you may know, sleep quality is linked to several health aspects, including heart, blood pressure, diabetes, etc.
- As we mentioned earlier, some people need complete silence to fall asleep. This situation may have to do with their mental health for the most part. Therefore, it is not wrong to say that the correct use of earplugs will assist you in regaining proper mental health over time.
As you can see, the benefits of using earplugs are impressive.
Possible Drawbacks
Depending on how you use the earplugs, you may face some drawbacks.
Some of the common issues are as follows:
- Research has shown that people who remove earplugs too quickly can cause damage to the eardrum. There are even some cases where the eardrum is ruptured due to force. While this may not happen to everyone, it stays as a risk.
- Continuous use of earplugs will impact the movement of ear wax within your ear. The same will happen if you use headphones and earphones for an extended period. In both cases, you may end up having some ear infection issues.
- Ear wax production may also take a toll due to the constant use of earplugs. There have been cases where the ear wax production increased or became unstable, thereby causing further issues. If this issue persists, you may face problems with ear balance.
As you can see, the problems that occur due to the improper use of earplugs are plenty. But you should also note that you can prevent most of these situations by taking some extra care.
Proper Way of Using Earplugs
Here are some ways to help you use earplugs for sleeping without causing problems.
- Ensure that you get a pair of high-quality earplugs in the first place. These are accessories you will keep in your ears for an extended period. Therefore, you should prioritize the safety and comfort of the whole deal. We do not recommend saving money by saving for a cheap one.
- Regardless of what the earplugs manufacturer may say, you should clean the earplugs as frequently as you can. It will ensure that you can remove potential dirt and infectious elements from the earplugs. Using an ultraviolet cleaner may be one of the best things you can do.
- We understand that some of you may not be able to fall asleep without earplugs. However, you must try to reduce the use of earplugs as much as possible. For instance, if you can get a nap without using earplugs, you should do that.
If you take care of these hygiene and comfort-based tips, you will not have trouble sleeping with earbuds.
Also, when you think a pair of earbuds have worn out, you should not hesitate to replace them.
As you see, there are many reasons why you should use earplugs for sleeping.
Of course, there could be the potential problems that we mentioned. In the long run, though, you can ensure your sleep quality and mental health by using earplugs properly.

As we continue through the 21st century it has become alarming the amount of plastic bottles that were discarded during the 20th century and in our opening 20 years of this century. Nonetheless there has been a huge push in recent years to change our purchasing habits from coffee shops selling reusable cups for your daily caffeine hit to cities providing drinking water stations to refill at.
This is a great start changing the habit of heading into a 7/11 and buying a bottle of Evian to hydrate and instead carrying your own water bottle. In the market there are a huge variety of options when purchasing a water bottle nowadays and this is where SilverAnt jumps in with their range of ultralight titanium bottles.
The scientific community clearly states the benefits of daily hydrating and drinking 2-3 litres of water. Its great for flushing out daily toxins from our kidneys, and helping brain function. There is nothing worse than working in an office dehydrated, your concentration levels depleted and the onset of a migraine.
Now each individual is unique and based on body weight requires different quantities of water and this is where our robust range of water bottles is able to cater for almost every individual. From our smallest micro bottle the 400ml to our largest the 1200ml bottle, we know we have a bottle for everyone. All our bottles are manufactured using 100% grade 1 titanium and are ultralight yet super strong. Each water bottle is a single wall design and this allows extra functionality. By this I mean every water bottle can be used over a stove or campfire to boil water, just remember to always boil water with the cap off for safety and reducing the pressure accumulated from boiling.
There is another reason we use titanium to manufacture our products and that is its natural biocompatibility. This means that there will throughout its use be no nasty chemicals released. No wonders titanium is so often used in medical procedures. When you purchase a plastic water bottle you will commonly see the tag no BPA's etc and this is there to show the product conforms to particular regulations and that this bottle has been checked and manufactured using synthetic plastic which doesn't produce harmful chemicals.
Now as I stated earlier we designed all our water bottles to be single wall for optimal lightness and durability and that's why with every water-bottle we provide a thermal sleeve to keep your warm beverages warmer for longer. Also most of our bottles feature a clip cap which is great for clipping a carabiner to should you wish, alongside a silicon food grade seal.
To check out our entire range of water bottles head on over to SilverAnt Outdoors now.
Thanks for reading

New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch is moving in to Donny Deutsch's old apartment. The New York Post reported the Super Bowl winner is renting Penthouse 23 in Trump Park Avenue, at 502 Park Avenue, for about $60,000 per month.
Deutsch vacated the apartment when he moved into a $21 million townhouse on East 78th Street. It was then reported to be leased to hedge fund investor Douglas Teitelbaum, who was sued by Trump for allegedly backing out of the agreement.
The full-floor, 6,224-square-foot unit is also listed for sale at $33 million by the Trump Organization's leasing office. It features four terraces with nearly 1,000 square feet of space.
The listing broker for the unit, Modlin Group President Adam Modlin, has worked with several other sports celebrities, including most recently, Alex Rodriguez.
The Post noted that Tisch's brother, Loews Co-Chairman Jonathan Tisch once lived in the same condo, located near 59th Street. [Post]

New OWNERS
A dog's body language can tell you a lot about how they're feeling. Here are the signs to look for, and what they might mean.
Dogs use their eyes, ears, tail and other parts of their body to communicate how they feel about people, places and situations. Understanding your dog's body language is an important part of communicating with them.
This is particularly important if your dog's behaviour or body language suddenly shifts. Knowing how to read their body language will help you know how to react appropriately.
How to tell if your dog is happy and relaxed
A relaxed dog will not appear tense in any way. These are some indicators:
A relaxed dog's mouth will be slightly open.
Their eyes will be a normal shape and size, not dilated or showing the whites of the eyes.
Their ears will be in their normal position (relaxed, not pointed forward or pulled back).
A happy dog's tail is in a relaxed, neutral or slightly raised position. Their tail may be wagging in a wide, slower-paced pattern.
Contrary to popular belief, a wagging tail is not always a sign of a friendly dog. A wagging tail is a sign that the dog is ready to interact. They could be ready to interact in a friendly or unfriendly manner. It is important to observe the rest of the dog's body language as well.
How to tell if your dog is upset or nervous
How can you tell if your dog is sad, nervous or anxious? Here is a list of some of the most common signs that dogs exhibit, and what they usually mean:
Body freezing:
A dog may freeze while they assess a situation and decide whether they need to run or fight. It is the sign that they are experiencing a high level of unease. A dog freezing could be a precursor for aggression.
Hunched, or making its body appear smaller:
Dogs show submission by lowering their heads and bodies to lessen the risk of attack from a dominant dog. When a dog lowers themselves close to the ground they can also be cowering and showing signs of fear.
Eyes appear larger than normal:
A dog's eyes can appear large either when they feel threatened or aggressive. Sometimes dogs exhibit "whale eyes" which is when their eyes are open wide and the white of their eyes are visible. This is because they are averting their heads but keeping their eyes fixated on something or someone. This is a sign of anxiety and discomfort or fear. Dogs that feel backed into a corner may have "whale eye". It could be a sign that they will snap and is a clear indication that they need more space. A dog who is averting their head is also a sign that the dog does not want to interact or be in that situation.
Dogs that feel unwell can look as though they are squinting their eyes. Squinting can also be a sign of appeasement and submission – or a sign of fear. If a dog is squinting but approaching it is likely showing friendly submission. If, however, the dog is squinting but crouching, this dog is showing signs of fear and should not be approached.
Ears pulled back:
If your dog's ears are pulled back only slightly, they are probably just being friendly. But if their ears are completely flattened or stuck out to the sides of their head, they are showing indications of being frightened, submissive or defensive.
Yawning can just mean your dog is tired. If a dog is yawning a lot, however, it may also mean they are stressed or nervous, as dogs sometimes yawn to calm down (humans yawn more when they are anxious as well).
Lip licking, tongue flicking, drooling:
Many dogs lick their lips, flick their tongues or drool for other reasons, but if your dog is doing one or more of these actions more frequently or out of character, these could be signs of stress.
Mouth closed:
When a dog's mouth is closed, this is a sign they are alert and getting ready for action. A tightly closed mouth, however, is a sign of fear or tension. The dog may also pull their lips back at the corners (known as "long lip").
How to tell if a dog is fearful or aggressive
Try to quickly remove your dog from situations that trigger a fearful or aggressive response. If your dog frequently exhibits signs of aggressive behaviour you should consult your veterinarian or a behavioural specialist.
Ears raised or pricked:
Ears that are stiffly raised or pricked forward usually mean that your dog is alert and ready for action. A dog will direct their ears towards whatever is holding their interest. Ears held high and forward can also be a sign of aggression.
Low tail or tail between the legs:
A tail that's very low or tucked between a dog's legs is a sign that the dog is uncomfortable, nervous or fearful.
Fast-wagging tail:
If a dog's tail is wagging extremely fast with tiny high-speed moments it is a likely a cue of tension or aggression. If the tail is held very high and wagging stiffly this may also indicate dominance. Barking may also accompany this behaviour. These are all signs of a dog on the brink of taking action – either flight or fight. This dog should not be approached.
Standing up tall/making their body appear larger:
This is a sign of a dog being assertive or aggressive – they are literally trying to make themselves seem bigger than the other dog or the person.
Teeth bared or snarling:
Bared teeth or snarling are typically a dog's way of warning you (or another dog or animal) not to come any closer. Bared teeth, however, could also be a sign of submission, particularly if they are accompanied by a lowered body and head.
Snapping or nipping:
Snapping or nipping by an adult dog is a clear warning to back away and is an indication that the dog feels threatened. (Snapping and nipping are also quite common puppy behaviours especially when they want to play, but you should teach your puppy at an early age that it's not alright to bite.)
Dogs may bite humans for any number of reasons. They could be fearful or startled, territorial or resource-possessive, dominant, in pain or because they feel trapped or cornered. Dogs should always be supervised around children, and children should be taught to respect dogs and their boundaries.
No matter the reason, every dog bite is a cause for serious concern. Consult with your veterinarian or a professional dog trainer to ensure the safety of both you, your dog and others.
Dogs may not talk but they are very effective communicators if you know what to look for. Learning how to read your dog's language will help you forge a closer bond with your dog and help keep you and your family safer when interacting with other dogs.
Helpful hint: Obedience tricks – such as 'sit!' and 'wait' – can help make your dog feel comfortable and relaxed in new situations as he is waiting for the owners next command and feels that his owner is in control of the situation.

On the Anniversary of Peterloo, one of our volunteers, David Phipps writes about an interesting Devon connection to the events in Manchester…
After the launch of Mike Leigh's new film about the Massacre of Peterloo (named to echo the battle of Waterloo), I wondered just how many people were aware of just what happened in St. Peter's Fields, Manchester in 1819. I also wondered how many knew that Henry Phillpotts, our Bishop in Devon from 1831 -1869, had become involved in the row which followed.
The Background
The social situation in 1819 was unbelievably different from what it is now. In the first place, only male property owners could vote in Parliamentary elections. These amounted to about 1.6% of the population. And towns like Manchester had no MP's at all, whereas some tiny villages had populations in single figures, all of whom depended upon a single landlord, so he chose the M.P. Even then, people often did not vote against the landlord, for there was no secret ballot.
This time, just after the end of the Napoleonic wars, was a period of severe civil unrest in Britain. The Industrial Revolution was going on apace and causing unemployment. The Corn Laws, which prohibited the import of relatively cheap wheat, were in force. They were wonderful for the farmers because they kept prices high, but were much less wonderful for the poor because they made the price of bread almost prohibitive. In 1904, William Canton wrote that
For thirty years the monstrous Corn Law, which was enacted in 1815 not for the purpose of public revenue but solely to maintain the rental of the landowners, blighted the hopes and energies of the people. No foreign grain was to be imported until wheat in the home markets had been for six months at or over 80s. per quarter [This equates to about £1.10 per kg – it never reached this, so effectively it was a complete ban. The going rate now is about 15p per kg.]…. In country places labourers tried to keep body and soul together on roots and wild plants, and died of starvation. If corn might be imported on certain terms, trade in foreign cattle, alive or slaughtered, was prohibited sans phrase [without qualification or exception]. Salt was taxed to forty times its value…. Windows were taxed, and men suffered the discomfort and unhealthiness of excluded light and air…. Little wonder that in such circumstances there was a clamour for Parliamentary reform.
The Morning Chronicle of 30th October, 1816 reported that there had been a riot in Birmingham to which troops had had to be called from Wolverhampton to restore order. On 12thDecember, the Morning Post also reported on riots which had taken place within the City of London.
In the light of these threats, the Government took draconian action, having in mind the French Revolution of thirty years before. In February, 1817, Parliament not only suspended Habeas Corpus (the law which says you can't be imprisoned without a trial), but also took severe measures against potentially treasonable meetings: meetings of more than fifty persons were banned unless they had permission from the magistrates and persons not dispersing after one hour were to be arrested, and the Justices were indemnified should any protestors be killed or maimed; and those obstructing the Justices from reading the Riot Act were to suffer the death penalty.
Exactly what Happened?
On 9th August, 1819, a meeting was called in Manchester to raise a petition to protest against the Corn Laws and for an extension of the franchise. The magistrates declared that such a meeting for such a purpose was illegal, so it was abandoned, and another called at St. Peter's Fields for a week later. Some estimated that 80,000 people, including many women and children, turned up. This assembly was addressed by Henry 'Orator' Hunt, a notable Radical, and banners bearing slogans such as 'No Corn Laws,' 'Annual Parliaments,' 'Universal Suffrage,' and 'Vote by Ballot' were visible.
Hunt later wrote, from prison, that he did his best to reassure the magistrates because he had heard that there was a warrant out against him. "They politely answered," he said, that "they knew of no such thing, or any such intention." Then, he said of the meeting, that the people did their best to show that they were loyal citizens, and not revolutionaries:
As soon as they assembled, they all struck up the national air of 'God save the King,' and after that, 'Rule Britannia.' But even these symptoms of loyalty, it seems, were not to be respected on this occasion. I was as much taken by surprise as any part of the people could have been, for I was particularly guarded and cautious to give the magistrates no pretence for interrupting the meeting.
Before Hunt's speech had finished, the magistrates panicked and had the troops charge the crowd with drawn sabres in order to arrest the leaders. It is estimated that about fifteen people were killed and around five hundred injured, many of these women and children. It has gone down in history as the 'Peterloo Massacre.'
Where does Bishop Phillpotts come in?
Phillpotts, at this time was Vicar of Gateshead and a Prebendary of Durham Cathedral. One meeting, condemning the outrage, took place on 21st October, in the County Hall, Durham. Whilst almost the whole country was up in arms about Manchester, Phillpotts chose to issue a pamphlet objecting to criticism of authority and expressing the belief that, upon full inquiry, the Government would be vindicated.
This pamphlet – they did go in for snappy titles in those days – A Letter to the Freeholders of the County of Durham on the Proceedings of the County Meeting holden on Thursday, 21st October Instant; and particularly on the Speech of John George Lambton, Esq. M.P., was exclusively political, rather than spiritual, and one is forced to the conclusion that Phillpotts wrote it either for the good of the Government, or to further his own interests with the Government. The main reason it caused controversy was because parts of it descend to rank abuse of Lambton, later Earl of Durham and son-in-law of Earl Grey (later Prime Minister and tea-drinker). Phillpotts said of Lambton's discussion of the events in Manchester that
Nothing short of running the full career of rashness and peril could glut his morbid avidity of distinction…. The Hon. Member might amuse himself and his friends in any manner that suits their taste. But, unhappily, the Constitution of our country is exposed to danger, while he is thus playing wth the torch of sedition, and wantonly tossing it about, amidst the combustible matter which surrounds him.
This was not the end of the matter, for a review of the pamphlet in the Edinburgh Review ,written (anonymously) by Henry Brougham, later to become Lord Chancellor, took Phillpotts' character to pieces:
Mr Phillpotts cannot be… commended. His language is insolent and coarse; he attacks individuals, and imputes motives; he is ambitious of sustaining, not merely the questionable part of a political parson, or the inconsistent part of an angry parson, but the despicable part of a foul-mouthed parson; a part always most condemned by those who set the highest value upon that amiable and venerable character, happily so frequent an ornament of the Church, – a meek, charitable, and liberal minister of religion. What right has this man to accuse one of the most honourable and patriotic gentlemen in all England, of being actuated solely by 'a morbid avidity of distinction?' What authorizes this wrangling pamphleteer to insinuate, in plain terms, and contrary to the manifest sense of the words, that Mr Lambton recommended measures too 'atrocious' to be particularized? Who that deserves regard, or possesses any authority, will approve of this forward priest launching, from the stall of his cathedral, against that most respectable individual, the charge of 'wantonly tossing about the torch of sedition?'
Phillpotts would not let the matter drop, but wrote an article in response to this attack. Brougham came back with even more vehemence:
We shall certainly not think of following this unhappy man through his new set of blunders, all delivered with the presumption which is called pedantry and arrogance, when accompanied with learning; but which is truly laughable when bottomed in sheer ignorance and conceit.
This controversy, and Phillpotts' defence of the Establishment did no harm to the upwards march of his career. In the next year he was appointed to the living of Stanhope, which was one of the most valuable, if not the most valuable living in England, because it entitled him to a share of the income from the rich deposits of lead ore underneath the parish. It was estimated that it was, in 2003 terms, worth almost £200,000 per annum. From there he went, via the Deanery of Chester, to become Bishop of Exeter in 1831, having had several more similar political scrapes along the way.

Oceans in Transformation
The world ocean is undergoing a major set of transformations, it is enveloped in a millenary shift from a long period of relative climatic stability. The transformations are plural: they traverse a multiplicity of elements, circulations, life forms, environments, and operate across a gradient of dimensions, energies and rhythms. The rise of the Anthropocene epoch cuts through long established relations, mixes and dissolves elements, multiplying and scattering spaces. The coupling between life and its planetary environment might be entering a complex instability.
The word ocean is one, yet its transformations are many. Many are also the ways to sense and inquire into them: each one mobilising specific knowledges and expertise, referring to different and often divergent logics, imaginaries, instruments. The oceans are in this sense plural, with little overlaps and synergies between different actors and research groups. The project is a way to unlock new collaborations and achieve synergies, starting from a new experience of the ocean through the aggregation of different research datasets.
The ocean is a sensorium: it records in its complex dynamics the transformations of the Earth, and it inscribes back its cycles in the dynamics of life-forms. The global ocean is changing its circulations, energies, interactions and ecologies. It is the most dynamic and sensitive component of our living planet. The ocean is in a new phase of its dynamic history, shaped by intensifications of the impact of human activities on planetary systems—the Anthropocene.
TBA21 Academy and Territorial Agency are collaborating to connect new forms of visibility and understanding of the ocean brought by science, culture and art. The research project inquires into new ways of connecting research groups that are addressing the ocean in transformation, linking science, arts and policy makers by way of shared images, datasets and narratives.
It investigates new forms of visualisation of complex datasets and how to interact with them. It experiments new ways of linking conservation policies with the multiscalar cycles of the Earth System; it looks into new connections between art and other forms of enquiry.
Ocean in Transformation is a research project that investigates how the complex changes in the seas are being sensed, measured and traced by a multiplicity of polities. Bringing together contemporary forms of advanced science with policy making and conservation, activism, art and architecture, its aim is to instigate new forms of collaborative action to safeguard the future of the ocean.
Ocean in Transformation asks how to engage with the changes of the Earth produced by the intensification of human activities starting from the ocean, rather than from a continental viewpoint. Often human activity is described as an intrusion in the pristine marine environments: a narrative that describes pollution, plastics, overfishing, sea acidification, warming and disruption in an alarming and clear way. Yet this narrative also reinforces the clearcut main division between humans and nature.
