Subtle Makeup

Post by skirttron »

I occasionally like to use makeup, but in a subtle way. I have clear nail varnish, tinted lip moisturiser, tinted face moisturiser, brush-on brozer, and have just got some subtle eyeshadow. I would be less subtle if it were more acceptable to do so.

Of course, all TV personalities and all leading politicians use makeup, so I don't see why I shouldn't. I have actually had it applied professionally a couple of times and I must say I love it.

How about you guys - have you used less-obvious makeup?

TV personalities and all leading politicians use makeup when are on the screen. I don’t know that any of them wear makeup when they are out in the public as part of their private life. And I don’t see the connection about whether you should or shouldn’t wear makeup. That’s a personal choice like anything else and doesn’t need any other justification.

I haven't really worn make (except for some, ermmmm games of a sort with my other half, which I'm not going to go into, lol)
But I don't see any issues with guys wearing make-up, we wear hair products and all want to look our best and I do think subtle can be nice on a guy as well as a girl.
There are now a range of male make-up products on sale these days and I'll be honest I'm tempted myself, so I'd say yes go for it fella :D

My wife bought me some male face moisturiser last year because she said my skin was looking dry. I tried it once, but I didn't like how it felt - or how it smelled. That's about the only time I have had any kind of make-up on since I was about twelve.

I'll wear pretty much any garment from the other side of the aisle so to speak - but makeup not much !

I do wear neutral lipsticks because they are nicer to wear than chapstick - just feels better on your lips.
I wear neutral nail polish and I wear dark reds on my toes - pedicure - esp in summertime for open toe shoes/peep toes.

I occasionally wear a neutral lipstick or lip gloss. Neither is really noticeable as evidenced by MOH not noticing or saying anything when I wear it around her. And she would comment! Why bother? I just feel better knowing, that's all. I sometimes wear clear nail varnish when I can be bothered to do my nails. I think that as I have time on my hands I'll have a go today. And yes, MOH does notice when I do my nails.
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.

Even out and about in pants and t-shirts, I now wear deep red nail varnish something like 80% of the time (until coronavirus lockdown) (a) stops me cheing my nails down to the bone and (b) to make a statement - although not sure what that statement is!!!

Maybe I should go out in total man-wear bit with varnish and deep red lippy on!!

I wear lip gloss, and the occasional lipstick. Sometimes foundation and concealer as I have too many spots, but found makeup can play havoc with my skin and is an age to take off. For an evening out I may put some on, but in these times all that foundation will end up on my mask :lol:

In my game it's unavoidably 'hands on' and sometimes I have to request patients to remove some of their 'war paint' before we can proceed. Not only does it get all over my disposable gloves but I also smear it all over the patient's lower face as well.

Occasionally I get a cold sore myself, usually after a holiday in high UV. To hide these I use a flesh-coloured pencil which does the trick of hiding it.
Cold sores, by the way, are caused by the variola/varicella virus, which we are all hosts to. Outbreaks last almost precisely nine days whether 'treated' or not. Zovirax is an expensive little salve tube frequently recommended, but I find it pretty useless myself.

Here endeth the make-up chapter for myself.

Re: Subtle Makeup

Post by Pdxfashionpioneer »

For some reason, shortly after I started wearing dresses on a regular basis, my lips felt naked so I started wearing subtle shades of lipstick. Almost immediately after I remembered how many women have complimented me on my eyes so I thought, "If I'm going to wear lipstick and dresses, why not enhance the looks of my eyes?" About the time I shattered one of my finger nails, I was in for having my nails done, which is now a sometimes thing.

So where did this end? Today, I needed to do some grocery shopping and thanks to our Governor's stay at home order I hadn't been out in awhile so in my typical one thing leads to another style, instead of throwing on a skirt and a shirt of a casual popover dress, I chose my red Lauren shirtdress and:
  • Plucked, colored and shaped my eyebrows
    Put on mascara and curled my lashes
    Put on eyeliner (Look up how to apply it; it looks worse than it really is
    Applied the obligatory 3 shades of eyeshadow
    Accented my cheekbones with bronzer
    I didn't apply foundation, I save that for the rare occasions I crossdress (No comments!) but I did dab concealer on enough spots foundation probably wouldn't have been that much more work! Except I still would have needed the concealer.

I was pleased with the result and it just felt good to put in the extra effort. I got a few skeptical looks on the light-rail car and in the grocery, but hey, they're no friends of mine anyway.

On the other hand, a friend who phoned me this evening asked for the photos I took of myself and the emojis she emailed back told me she was impressed.

I'll try to attach them so you can judge for yourselves.

To answer the original question, I do not use makeup in any form. Nor do I used nail polish, other than to use a clear version to stop runs in my sheer tights.

That situation is unlikely to change. I’m happy with my own version of fashion freedom, yet I applaud those of us who wear makeup well.

When I was a teen a few times my mom gave me a little powder to make my forehead less shiny. I didn't understand what was wrong with shiny. (Still don't.) Other than that no makeup, except for clear nail polish on my right thumbnail occasionally when it is splitting.

I also do not bother with makeup, and I have the girls blessing to try, they even offered to apply it for me. I declined.

I've even gotten away from nail polish, and my styles seem to continue to move toward more "neutral" territory, with the occasional hippie flare.

I think it has to do with the fact that I seem to have less of a desire to express myself in the context of gender, yet I still like wearing skirts.

I seemed to have pushed myself away from most, if not all subcultures and am simply aiming to live a normal life... granted, with skirts in the overall matrix of what makes me me.

The stories within Lidia Yuknavitch's Verge create a subdermal web with motifs of feminism, middle-class imposter syndrome, isolation and more.

Book Review: Verge

Book Reviews

Lidia Yuknavitch

Riverhead Books
Street: 02.04

I most frequently read short-story collections, and Lidia Yuknavitch’s Verge has everything I want from one. Considering it as a whole, Verge simply feels replete. Its stories create a subdermal web that coheres and refracts the collection with motifs of feminism, middle-class imposter syndrome, isolation and more—but those words alone would be reductive to Yuknavitch’s sheer artistry and inimitable inflection as a writer.

While various stories in Verge are concerned with feminism, much of the marrow lies in the barriers created by patriarchy, how women are forcefully socialized by its constraints and her characters’ struggles in navigating/finding themselves within these boundaries. The protagonist of “The Organ Runner” subverts her role as an orphan by excelling in delivering people’s organs, and furthers this sensibility in exacting revenge against a boy who’d assaulted her. In “Second Language,” an Eastern European folktale irrupts into reality, wherein a human-trafficked sex worker mutilates herself to invoke wolves that “ripped the throats from the wrongheaded men and tore them limb from limb.” Conversely, in “Cusp,” the protagonist arrives at an epiphany that the sexual liberation she experiences with men in a nearby prison still pits her against slut-shaming and within patriarchal confines that delimit any kind of liberation she may experience.

Yuknavitch’s feminism intersects with class struggle, as seen in “Street Walker.” The protagonist of this story queries her middle-class position as she considers creating a safe space for a sex worker she observes on her street. In this intersecting, Yuknavitch successfully brings to the fore the frustrating paradox that being a savior for women also implicates us in class discrimination, baring our society’s snake-eating-its-tail dynamic. Further into the class trope, “Woman Object (Exploding)” finds its feisty protagonist put off by the fake people at a pretentious dinner party. As she gets progressively drunk, she views them as caricaturesque animal versions of themselves in an absurd, solipsistic, academic milieu. Given that Yuknavitch is a professor herself, the self-awareness and class-cultural critique is resounding.

Verge isn’t all social critique, per se. “Mechanic” is a lesbian love story approaching (but not quite reaching) pornographic territory in a tasteful, feminist kind of way, as the mechanic protagonist feels out if the femme, engaged customer is interested. “A Woman Apologizing” proffers some navel-gazing as a woman expects her lover to return to her after a fight. The objective correlative of her being handcuffed to a bed as a forced symbol of her relinquishment of control—the cause of the argument between her and her boyfriend—becomes her Icarian downfall as she finds herself waiting longer than she expected for him to return and make up.

Yuknavitch excels in translating trauma into her fiction. “How to Lose an I,” the penultimate story, follows a man who lost an eye and his lover in a car accident. It’s a prime example of Yuknavitch’s penchant for weaving together themes via images—in this case, the protagonist’s comfort in being cradled by a car, ironically, conflating that with the comfort he feels while floating swimming, and it all mirroring the prosthetic eye he must wear. It’s one of Verge’s longer stories alongside “Cusp,” and those two are my favorites. I’m enticed to read one of her novels now.

By and large, Verge is for women. This is made even more apparent in its celebration of gender performance in “A Woman Going Out,” in which the ritual of shaving legs and putting on tights harmonizes with its pairing with the image of male genitalia. Opening story “The Pull” tells of two sisters swimming away from a wartorn country, and “Two Girls” touts flirtatious, lyrical, repeating language that plays with the physical contact of two 16-year-old girls. With each complex piece of this mosaic, Verge is a fantastic read all around. –Alexander Ortega

Growing up in central Baghdad, Iraq. My connection to the world was through Cinema Roxie. Lewis and Martin, Abbott and Costello, Bill Haley and the Comets, James Dean, all had a profound effect on me.Creatively, toy musical instruments were the only thing available to me, which I played endlessly as I day dreamt. As a young teen in Chicago, Illinois, I managed to save a bit of money from my $1.25 an hour part time job to buy a used Kodak Retina 3C camera, a Durst enlarger and the most basic darkroom accessories, which I set up in the basement of my parents’ house. I don’t know how we are shaped and why we are receptive to certain influences, I do know that the magic of that first photographic image, appearing out of nowhere in a bath of chemicals has never left me. Today, as I spend endless hours reshaping and preparing the digital image, it’s as magical an experience as that first image appearing in a bath of Dektol film developer. My career has been more focused on filmmaking. In 2001, while working as a Director of Photography on a PBS documentary film in Sudan and Egypt, I renewed my love for the still image. With photography, I felt more intimacy and a connection with my subject. I was able to take my eye away from the viewfinder, feel my surroundings and communicate with my subject. Landscapes, faces and storytelling captivate me. As a prerequisite to producing images that tell stories, whether in film or a still image, one needs to be fascinated with the human dynamics, the dynamics of seven billion of us roaming the planet. At least, that is what drives me.

High Impact Plastic Sheet

Pure polystyrene is brittle, but hard enough that a fairly high-performance product can be made by giving it some of the properties of a stretchier material, such as polybutadiene rubber.Polystyrene is a versatile plastic that can be rigid or foamed. It is a low cost member of the plastics family. It also generally recognized as the best styrenic material.

Polybutadiene is added during polymerization it can become chemically bonded to the polystyrene, forming a graft copolymer which helps to incorporate normal polybutadiene into the final mix, resulting in high-impact polystyrene or HIPS, often called "high-impact plastic" in advertisements.

Common applications include use in toys and product casings. HIPS is usually injection molded in production. Autoclaving polystyrene can compress and harden the material.

Does This Image Show a 1930s Housewife Forced into ‘Smile Therapy’?

A creepy vintage image of dubious provenance purports to illustrate an outdated psychiatric treatment for unhappy housewives.

  • Published 12 October 2017

Image depicts "attitude adjustment" and "smile therapy" forced upon American housewives in the 1930s institutionalized for "not taking care of themselves" and acting "depressed."

On 5 October 2017, a Facebook page called “Pictures in History” shared a photograph supposedly depicting an American housewife in the 1930s who was committed to a psychiatric facility for the offense of failing to take “proper care of her husband”:

1930s woman smile pictures in history

The caption, previously published by a Tumblr user in 2014, claimed that wives could be institutionalized and subjected to shock therapy for failing to smile often enough:

In the 1930s, if a woman was considered “depressed” or if she wasn’t “taking proper care of her husband” it was legal for her to be sent to a psych ward for a full attitude adjustment. This photo shows a smiling treatment used to condition a woman into always wearing a smile. Experts believed that if a woman saw herself smiling that it would become natural practice and she would be “cured.” This often went along with shock therapy.

There appears to be some historical revisionism at work here, however. As a critique of gender roles and expectations, the image of a woman with a paper smile attached to her face would seem more pertinent to the 1950s, a time frequently portrayed as the apex of the American household, than the during the 1930s and the Great Depression, when the main challenge faced by most people, regardless of gender, was just getting by.

For all its ubiquity, the post-World War II stereotype of the beaming homemaker in popular culture stood in sharp contrast to the plight of real women who had gotten a taste of freedom during the war, taking on jobs and responsibilities formerly held by men, only to be handed back their aprons and consigned to the kitchen when the troops returned home from overseas:

Women in uniform took office and clerical jobs in the armed forces in order to free men to fight. They also drove trucks, repaired airplanes, worked as laboratory technicians, rigged parachutes, served as radio operators, analyzed photographs, flew military aircraft across the country, test-flew newly repaired planes, and even trained anti-aircraft artillery gunners by acting as flying targets

At the war’s end, even though a majority of women surveyed reported wanted to keep their jobs, many were forced out by men returning home and by the downturn in demand for war materials. Women veterans encountered roadblocks when they tried to take advantage of benefit programs for veterans, like the G.I. Bill. The nation that needed their help in a time of crisis, it seems, was not yet ready for the greater social equality that would slowly come in the decades to follow.

Despite social expectations, then, many women in the post-war era, were not, in fact, the happy homemakers men wanted them to be, which ultimately gave rise to the counter-trope (most famously explored in Betty Friedan’s feminist manifesto The Feminine Mystique) of the dissatisfied housewife. Ironically, although this dissatisfaction undoubtedly pushed some women into psychiatric treatment, the growing acceptance of psychoanalytic theory during that period also, according to sociologist Jonathan Metzl, “enabled the perception — indeed, the misperception — that women’s unrest led to symptoms in men.”

That the dissatisfaction of women posed a threat to domestic tranquility during the 1950s and ’60s was clearly seen as a problem, then, though to the extent anyone proposed a medical solution — for sufferers of either gender — it tended to be in the form of drugs such as Valium (“Mother’s Little Helpers”), not institutionalization and shock therapy (though such was not unheard of).

But again, this all took place after World War II, not during the 1930s when the photograph in question was allegedly taken. Unhappiness wasn’t considered a gender issue during the Depression. Indeed, most people were too busy surviving to worry about whether they were happy or not. Historian Susan Ware writes:

“We didn’t go hungry, but we lived lean.” That expression sums up the experiences of many American families during the 1930s: they avoided stark deprivation but still struggled to get by. The typical woman in the 1930s had a husband who was still employed, although he had probably taken a pay cut to keep his job; if the man lost his job, the family often had enough resources to survive without going on relief or losing all its possessions. … Women “made do” by substituting their own labor for something that previously had been bought with cash or by practicing petty economies like buying day-old bread or warming several dishes in the oven to save gas. Living so close to the edge, women prayed that no catastrophic accident or illness would swamp their tight budgets. “We had no choice,” remembered one housewife. “We just did what had to be done one day at a time.”

In many ways men and women experienced the Depression differently. Men were socialized to think of themselves as breadwinners; when they lost their jobs or saw their incomes reduced, they felt like failures because they couldn’t take care of their families. Women, on the other hand, saw their roles in the household enhanced as they juggled to make ends meet. Sociologists Robert and Helen Lynd noticed this trend in a study of Muncie, Indiana, published in 1937: “The men, cut adrift from their usual routine, lost much of their sense of time and dawdled helplessly and dully about the streets; while in the homes the women’s world remained largely intact and the round of cooking, housecleaning, and mending became if anything more absorbing.” To put it another way, no housewife lost her job in the Depression.

In any case, we are left with a Facebook post alleging that a woman was institutionalized by her husband and forced to wear an illustrated grin taped to her face as “smile therapy” to make her a more agreeable caretaker for her husband. We are also told that such was a legal and common practice in the 1930s, yet not a single source is cited to support these claims, nor could we find external evidence to corroborate them.

The image, mysterious as it is, does not appear to depict a patient in an mental institution. On the contrary, the subject is wearing street clothes, jewelry, styled hair, and makeup. Far from clarifying the mystery, a reverse image search simply led us down a different rabbit hole to a 2014 article recounting a strange urban legend about an attempt to combat a suicide epidemic in 1930s Hungary by creating what was called a “smile club.” The photo was attributed (perhaps accurately, perhaps not) to an issue of a Dutch tabloid magazine called Het Levin published in 1937. We found no evidence suggesting that it was of American origin, or that it depicts a patient undergoing “smile therapy” in a mental institution.

We judge the claim that women were institutionalized and made to wear fake smiles to make them happier housewives in the 1930s as false. Exaggerated claims about past indignities visited upon the American housewife such as these are not uncommon in modern folklore. As we’ve had occasion to observe before, such stories are alluring partly because they allow us to feel morally superior to the generations that preceded us:

It has become fashionable to portray outdated societal behaviors and attitudes — ones we now consider desperately wrongheaded — to be worse than they really were as a way of making a point about how much we’ve improved. When we despair over the human condition and feel the need for a little pat on the back, a few startling comparisons between us modern enlightened folks and those terrible neanderthals of yesteryear give us that. We go away from such readings a bit proud of how we’ve pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps and with our halos a bit more brightly burnished.

The juxtaposition of wonderful modernity with a tawdry past also serves to reinforce the ‘rightness’ of current societal stances by making any other positions appear ludicrous. It reminds folks of the importance of holding on to these newer ways of thinking and to caution them against falling back into older patterns which may be more comfortable but less socially desirable. Such reinforcement works on the principle that if you won’t do a good thing just for its own sake, you’ll surely do it to avoid being laughed at and looked down upon by your peers.

To that we would simply add that exaggerating the wrongheadedness of our forebears can be taken to such extremes (case in point above) that it is we who end up looking ludicrous when we fall for it.

Is George Soros ‘Grooming’ a Pro-Muslim Brotherhood Gubernatorial Candidate in Michigan?

Abdul El-Sayed's platform actually puts him in opposition to the beliefs espoused by the Muslim Brotherhood.

  • Published 11 December 2017

Billionaire philanthropist George Soros is "grooming" Abdul El-Sayed, who is "sympathetic" to the Muslim Brotherhood, to be president of the United States.

In late November and early December 2017, a Facebook post reported without any evidence that a candidate for governor of Michigan is being “groomed” by billionaire philanthropist George Soros and is sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood. The post, which prompted troubling comments, appears to have been inspired by an April 2017 story in the far-right tabloid (formerly WorldNetDaily). It reads:

Don’t ever say you weren’t warned-‘He IS on his way’
‘He IS being groomed at this very minute’
Etch this man’s name in your mind.
His name is Abdul El-Sayed.
After years of being groomed by George Soros. He has been hand-picked by the Left to be their next “champion” of Hope and Change.
He is 32 years old, born in the USA, and an extremely well educated Muslim Doctor in Detroit Michigan. (education funded by Soros)
He is handsome, articulate, charismatic and smart.
He is sympathetic of the Muslim Brotherhood, and is running for Governor of Michigan,
Which is Step 1 in his preparation to run for President of the United States
He has the potential to be Obama #2, but far more openly Muslim.
Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed is an American physician, epidemiologist, public health advocate, and politician.
He has announced his candidacy for Governor of Michigan, running as a Democrat.
Born: October 31, 1984 (age 32), Michigan
Awards: Rhodes Scholarship; Paul and Daisy Soros; Fellowships for New; Americans
Education: University of Michigan, Ann; Arbor (BA); Oriel College, Oxford (MA, PhD); Columbia University (MD)
Political party: Democratic Party.
In 2020 he will be eligible to run for President!
Democrats’ mouths are watering in anticipation and raising money.
Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren is already campaigning for him. Another Trojan Horse?
Al Jazeera, which is widely read by Michigan’s large Muslim population is doing its best to help George make him “YOUR” president in 2020!
Bet you never dreamed an unknown, like Obama, would end up as the President of the United States of America FOR 8 YEARS, did you?

The idea that George Soros, a Hungarian-American Jew, is pulling the strings in a plot to take over the U.S. (this time vis-a-vis the Michigan gubernatorial race and candidate Abdul El-Sayed) threads into the ubiquitous anti-Semitic conspiracy theory known as the “New World Order.” The theory posits a secret cabal of rich (and Jewish) financiers are angling to establish an authoritarian global government and, among other things, force America to become more diverse.

El-Sayed is not sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood, but he’s not the first Muslim American to step into public life only to have that accusation lobbed at him. After Gold Star father Khizr Khan spoke in support of Hillary Clinton at the Democratic National Convention in 2016, he was falsely accused by anti-Muslim conspiracy trolls of being a Muslim Brotherhood “operative.”

El-Sayed has said publicly he is a firm supporter of the separation of church and state — which puts him at complete odds with the Muslim Brotherhood, an international theocratic movement that aims to combine religion with government.

El-Sayed is an American progressive, a political movement left of liberalism that seeks things like universal health care, an increased minimum wage and equality for the LGBT community. He is also pro-choice. His stances on LGBT and women’s reproductive rights place him in polar opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood. Ani Zonneveld, president of the organization Muslims for Progressive Values told us the Muslim Brotherhood’s views on those issues are similar to conservative Christians in the U.S. in that they want to legislate anti-gay and pro-life policy due to their religious beliefs.

What is true is that El-Sayed is indeed a “well educated Muslim Doctor in Detroit.” At 32, he is the youngest person to have served as director of Detroit’s Health Department. Born in Michigan to immigrant parents from Egypt, he earned an M.D. from Columbia University in 2014 and a PhD in public health from Oxford University in 2011. During the course of his education he was awarded several prestigious scholarships including Rhodes, Marshall and the Paul and Daisy Soros fellowship in 2012

Paul Soros, George Soros’s now-deceased older brother, launched the Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans with his wife in 1998. It is a competitive, merit-based program that every year accepts 30 immigrants or children of immigrants who are pursuing graduate school in the United States and can demonstrate that they will “make significant contributions to the United States though their future work,” fellowship director Craig Harwood told us. About the selection process, Harwood said:

Every applicant must submit two essays, information about their background and accomplishments, and any relevant exhibits about their work. In addition, they need three to five recommendations. It’s not an easy application process.
Our selection process, which is based on this criteria, is divided into two phases. The first phase is the screening process where we employ a diverse set of skilled readers who are a mix of professors, higher education administrators, and experts in a range of professional fields. The screening process narrows the field to 77 applicants who then become our finalists. We then hold seven days of interviews where we engage dozens of panelists who, like the readers, are experts in a range of fields.

George Soros is not involved in any way with the selection process.

We asked El-Sayed’s campaign about the accusations made in the post and a spokesperson referred us to an August 2017 profile in The Guardian in which he flatly denied each of them in an interview with journalist Drew Philp:

“Are you the spear tip of a vast Muslim conspiracy to bring Sharia law to the US?”

“No,” [El-Sayed] said.

“Are you a front for the Muslim brotherhood to pervert American politics towards terrorism?”

“Were you handpicked by George Soros to lead a vast liberal takeover of the government?”

“No. I’ve never met George Soros.”

The Solstice Siena Conversational Framework is Slack Enterprise Grid Ready

Dan Ptak

Slack moved further into the enterprise environment this week with the launch of their new product, the Slack Enterprise Grid.

The Slack Enterprise Grid couples all of Slack’s beloved features with the scale and security demanded by the largest organizations. Most notably, Slack provides a centralized security admin console to manage multiple workgroups and is now FINRA and HIPAA compliant.

Today, Solstice is excited to announce that our Siena Conversational Framework is now compatible with Slack Enterprise Grid. The Siena Framework is a first-of-its-kind conversational framework that allows brands to get into the Conversational UX game by creating richer, smarter conversations, faster. It universally powers any conversational endpoint such as Slack, Facebook Messenger, Alexa, Pepper the Robot and ensures the learnings from one conversation, i.e., Alexa, contribute to the fluency of all brand conversations, i.e., Slack and Pepper.

The Siena Framework was born out of Solstice Labs and was purpose-built for brands either creating their first conversational experience or those expecting to creating omnichannel conversational experiences over time.

As a firm, we’ve always held the belief that building a mobile app isn’t the same as having a mobile-first strategy. The same is now true for any single conversational endpoint. With this framework, Solstice is focused on helping clients create omni-channel conversational strategies, not just build chatbots or Alexa skills.

New York City, New York, United States | INDIE
Established on Jan, 2001
Band Rock Hard Rock

"October 21 - GAGGLE OF COCKS (Low Class Trendsetter)"

This upstate New York power trio's second album and first in about 12 years is the place to go for some high powered in your face rock n roll. I'll admit I wasn't expecting to like this album very much but even if it had been on my most anticipated list it still would have floored me with its hooky power and unrelenting heaviness. Get it here. Highlights include: "Low Class Trendsetter" and "Black Helicopters". Rating 4/5 - Paranoid Hitsophrenic

"Gaggle of Cocks' "Low Class Trendsetter" CD"

New York, brash and crass, low class, greasy American rock. Stoner at times, but also sounding a little like Unsane meet ACDC at times. This is a hard groovin' rock and roll album. - The Fuzz Lab

"Gaggle of Cocks Low Class Trendsetter"

After listening to the GOC single Smoke, I definitely needed to scope out their music and learn more about the band. GOC’s music has been featured on A&E’s Dog The Bounty Hunter in two episodes, which without saying—must mean their music is pretty bad ass.

Low Class Trendsetter is a definite must-have-album for every rock fan. It has the perfect combination of feel good tracks, combined with bass-driven metal-esque tunes.

Darkness, and Low Class Trendsetter are my favourite tracks from this album. Check ‘em out. - Punk Globe

"New Band To Burn One To: GAGGLE OF COCKS"

Sometimes there is absolutely nothing better than just some good 'ole stripped down, rugged and intense rock and roll. New York City's Gaggle of Cocks does just that on their latest album "Low Class Trendsetter". Without getting too wordy with unecessary adjectivity, this band delivers a high-energy and blistering display of potent white trash hard rock. The songs are short but definitely not sweet. With a gravel fed vocal delivery and furious fret board mayhem, you will be bashing your head into the wall with scorchers such as "Black Helicopters" and the bass-driven barrage that is "Guy Supreme". While the band isn't exactly "new" by any means, check out their 2008 release "American Trash" for more highfalutin debauchery. - Heavy Planet

GAGGLE OF COCKS sends me their latest to rule your world. Cinderblock heavy rock and roar that is hungry for your daughters... no filler here, 100% pure U.S. beef. - New York Waste

"Hard Hitting Rock from New York - Gaggle of Cocks - Low Class Trendsetter"

Hard Edge Rock from New York, Gaggle of Cocks is a committed band of “living the life” musicians that have honed their talents to create a sound that is righteous and vibrant, musically - they are on the mark with clear crisp skill driven form and lyrics that make your blood rush.

Fronted by Pat Harrington on Guitar & Vocals, Freddy Villano on bass guitar, Charles Ruggiero – drums and aided by the formidable talents of Chris Goercke, told to be “Occasional guitar and fulltime bad muthafucka!” this band has the right stuff. With what is a focus on the message and the music as the perfect medium, you hear the emotion and the vibe of the hard life in every track. Self-named “low class and kick ass”, they are anything but not this, and wholly an enigma in their title, Gaggle of Cocks, is what legend is made of.

Proclaimed by Mike Cavanaugh of All Access Magazine as “The songs have that raw quality I’d expect from a punk band with this name.” and “Cinderblock heavy rock and roar that is hungry for your daughters” by Starr Tucker - New York Waste, this is not just a “punk” band, but an up and coming music force to be respected, I personally find them in the same vein as Pantera and bands of their ilk, taking names and casting blame, they are what is best of the Hard Rock movement, no glam, no sparkle, just hard edge and driving rhythms and a drum beat that calls to the fight, to the war against mediocrity in music, a Gaggle of Cocks will be heard. - Xombiewoof Magazine

"What People Are Saying About GOC"

What People are Saying about GOC:

"Not since Melvins, Antiseen, Dwarves, Butthole Surfers and Agony Column has a band sounded so incendiary; gaggle of cocks are writing some of the freshest, nastiest, most amusing beer-soaked stompers in years."
(Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles)

"Ever since I heard American Trash I've had their songs in my head."

"The band crafts some heavy, pounding metal tunes that you won't soon forget. If there were any justice, "Bomb Me" would be wrecking radios instead of that syrupy Nickelback bullshit."

"These guys make the term "power-trio" sound inadequate."
(New York Waste Magazine)

"The songs fill you with power and toughness. A definite must have on the monster truck circuit."
(The Edge Magazine)

"This New York trio cranks out some serious, ass-kicking rock."
(Impact Press)

"American Trash is the record to rage out to."

"A sound that pays homage equally to hard rock and heavy metal. If you like hard riffage with a bit of old school thrash then you should check these guys out."

"American Trash conjures up an image of a Big Mac, and that's probably not a bad metaphor for this album. It's big and satisfies the cravings, and even though it leaves a pretty nasty aftertaste, plenty of people will find themselves going back for more. There's always a good riff just around the corner."
(The Sound Monitor)

"The Cocks come out hard. If you're not prepared it's like getting hit in the privates with a bat."

"Bassline-heavy biker/stoner rock. A street-level attitude is part of GOC's roots in punk and scum rock."
(Good Times Magazine)

"Sludgy, Ozzfest-esque metal."
(Punk Planet)

"Southern-fried, down 'n dirty, beer-swillin' rock."
(Metal Maniacs)

"The band mixes elements of hard rock, stoner and grunge rather well. Standout tracks include "Horse 44," "Bomb Me," "My Little Hell," and "Loading."

"The name is pretty ridiculous, the music is definitely trashy and it has a nice groove to it."

"Seriously, this is probably one of the best "heavy" CDs I have ever heard. I really think there is only one way to describe the music on this CD: Music to drive a tank to."

- Various

"Low Class Trendsetter" (Sliptrick Records, 2013)

"American Trash" (Screaming Ferret Wreckords, 2008)

gaggle of cocks (GOC) emerged from NYC's lower east side in 2001. Within a year of forming they were hammering out their unique brand of heavy-hitting hard rock at legendary and now-defunct clubs such as CBGBs, The Continental, Don Hills and L'Amour, alongside such New York luminaries as The Bullys, Joker Five Speed and The Toilet Boys.

In 2002 GOC independently recorded and released their debut CD, American Trash. In 2008, Screaming Ferret Wreckords re-released the album worldwide and their bludgeoning sound was immediately coined "dark and seething" by Joseph Timmons of Xombiewoof Magazine and acclaimed journalist Martin Popoff said, "Not since Melvins, Antiseen, Dwarves, Butthole Surfers and Agony Column has a band sounded so incendiary."

GOC recently hooked up with Sliptrick Records for the worldwide digital release of their sophomore CD, Low Class Trendsetter. Already, NY Waste calls it, "Cinder block heavy rock and roar that is hungry for your daughters" and Heavy Planet says, "You will be bashing your head into the wall with scorchers such as "BlackHelicopters" and the bass-driven barrage that is "Guy Supreme"."

GOC's music has been featured on the A&E television show Dog the Bounty Hunter not once, not twice, but thrice, confirming that their music is, in fact, low class.

GOC features a stellar line-up of pedigree musicians. Former SLUNT members Pat Harrington (guitar & vocals) and Charles Ruggiero (drums), along with bassist Freddy Villano (formerly with Quiet Riot & Widowmaker), comprise the power trio line-up. They are occasionally joined by former Kelly Osbourne, Queen V and Xs guitarist Chris Goercke.

Kaoru Abe

March 1970

Format: CD

Out of stock

The earliest live recording of this Japanese free jazz saxophonist/loner catches him at an incendiary peak across two long, fully-gospelised/heavy tremolo wall-destroyers. Abe at his most Ayler/Wright-inspired. Liners list the backing as bass and drums, but it's actually piano and drums. Keiichi Chida on piano has a weird watery/cluster sound that's a little like Burton Greene's 60s recordings, while Kazunori Nitta's drumming is all splats and weights of blurry punctuation. Sounds fucking great. Highly recommended.
Cat. number: PSFD 56
Year: 1997
Genre: Jazz
Recorded on March 15, 1970 at Pit Inn New Jazz Hall, Shinjuku, Tokyo.

Queensland gov’t ups its disaster response game with Gruntify

By on 15 August, 2017

The Queensland government has adopted Gruntify to streamline its disaster response and reporting. Microsoft has caught wind and traveled to Brisbane to document how this Cloud-based approach was implemented in the wake of Cyclone Debbie.

Queensland’s disaster response team has been armed with Cloud-based GIS technology and they’re never going back. There are more people than ever before in the path of wild weather, and the Queensland government has taken steps to improve their ability to act quickly. Ditching their old manual methods of reporting, they’ve adopted Gruntify.

Gruntify is GIS People’s flagship product and provides a platform for team members in the field to acquire and upload data in real time. Queensland Government saw huge potential for Gruntify to be used in their rapid damage assessment following disasters, and the platform was set up to meet just that purpose for them. When Tropical Cyclone Debbie swept down the Queensland coast in March this year, the Gruntify technology was really put to the test.

“I’ve been leading the department’s agencies response to disasters now for about seven years. The response this time was probably the most organized and ordered that I’ve been involved with the whole time.”

Critical infrastructure such as roads, bridges and power lines were damaged up and down the state. To assist with quick recovery, the Gruntify mobile apps and web platform were used to collect evidence of this damage, document it, and prepare reports, so that recovery and reconstruction activities can be expedited. The recovery operation is still ongoing and Gruntify is an integral part of managing that process.

Miles Vass, Deputy Director General for the Department of Transport Queensland, called the application elegant, adding, “I’ve been leading the department’s agencies response to disasters now for about seven years. The response this time was probably the most organized and ordered that I’ve been involved with the whole time.”

Gruntify is built on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. Through GIS People’s partnership with Microsoft under the CityNext program, the technology giant heard about the exciting work that the Brisbane-based company have been collaborating on with Queensland Government. Microsoft loved the project so much, they decided to film a case study. This led to a film crew flying out from the USA to Brisbane, where they conducted interviews with Queensland Deputy Premier Jackie Trad, the Deputy Director General of the Department of Transport Queensland Miles Vass, and GIS People’s CEO Jamie Leach, who spoke about Gruntify and the work that that has been done in Queensland.

The Microsoft production crew also filmed the GIS People and Queensland Government teams in action, using Gruntify in the field and in the office. This filming opportunity has given GIS People the chance to show the world what Gruntify is all about, and how this platform can be used to make lives better.

Gruntify clearly has a lot to offer in the way of improving efficiency for industries that still rely on manual reporting methods. It will be interesting to see if the improvement in government efficiency also translates into an improved experience for the citizens in the eye of the storm.

Dutch Gold Medal Coach Geert Kuiper to Join Canadian Long Track Program as Technical Advisor

Calgary, August 10, 2018 – World-renowned long track speed skating coach Geert Kuiper from the Netherlands will join the Canadian program as Technical Coach Advisor, starting August 13, 2018.

Kuiper has led his skaters to six Olympic gold medals (Gerard van Velde in the 1000m in 2002; Sven Kramer in the 5000m in 2010 and 2014; and Ireen Wüst in the 1500m in 2010, and in the 1500m and the 3000m in 2014). At the 2018 Olympic Games in PyeongChang, Kuiper was head coach for the Dutch men and women’s team pursuit and mass start, which brought home four medals (women’s silver and men’s bronze in the team pursuit, and two bronze in the mass start).

Kuiper has been contracted by Speed Skating Canada to work under Long Track High Performance Director Cara Thibault and with the other National Team coaches and the Integrated Support Team to develop Canada’s National Team athletes. He will play a leadership and advisory role in coaching, monitoring and evaluating athletes and training plans, with the goal of leading Canada to podium performances in international competition.

“I am honoured to have been approached for this position by Speed Skating Canada”, said Kuiper. “There is a strong foundation for high performance sport in Canada and I think this is the right place for me and the right time to share my experience with an enthusiastic and talented group of skaters and coaches. I have been to Canada several times and was attracted by its beautiful landscapes and its people. I’m looking forward to working as a Technical Coach Advisor and will give my very best to help Canadian speed skating achieve short and long-term success.”

Kuiper started coaching in 1997 following a speed skating career in which he won three silver and one gold medal in the Dutch Championship sprint events.

Since 1997, Kuiper has worked as a coach for the Dutch speed skating team Sanex (1997-2000), head coach and member of the technical staff of its sprint team (2000-2005), and team coordinator and assistant coach for team TVM (2006-2014). From 2014 to 2018, he was head coach of the Dutch national speed skating team in the mass start and team pursuit events. He holds a level 5 technical coaching license in long track from the Royal Dutch Skating Federation.

“It’s a privilege to have such an experienced coach as Geert Kuiper come to Canada to share his knowledge and expertise enhancing our Long Track Program to reach its goals in Beijing 2022.”, said Speed Skating Canada’s Chief Sport Officer, Shawn Holman. “Building a World class program takes World class people and we are confident Geert will have a significant impact on our High Performance Program, but also system development as we strengthen our athlete pathway for our NextGen 2026 athletes”.

Among other duties, Kuiper will act as a mentor for other coaches, support the development of athlete training, selection criteria and protocols, and support the development, implementation and evaluation of annual and long-term training plans. He will lead coaching teams and provide advice to develop high performance athletes and coaches at the National Training Centres in Calgary and Quebec City, and across the country. He will also play a role in the continued development of Speed Skating Canada’s Long-Term Participant Athlete Development (LTPAD) resources.

More details are available at Speed Skating Canada's web site at www.speedskating.ca.

Sputtering Target-Potential Material King

In every era, some materials have followed the mainstream trend to become the best in the industry. In the past two years, the basic metal took off from the real estate. The new energy vehicles led the lithium, cobalt and other small metals. In the present situation, the development of the chip industry as the high technology commanding point has important strategic significance. The unstable international situation, is more like a powerful catalyst, as a sputtering target for the manufacture of necessary raw materials for a large scale integrated circuit, and may be a representative of the rising material under this mainstream trend.

potential material King

What is the sputtering target?

In the semiconductor chip industry, as a high-tech high technology, the sputtering target is the necessary raw material for VLSI manufacturing. Ultra large scale integrated circuits (VLSI) are integrated circuits on a chip with more than 100 thousand components or more than ten thousand gate integrated circuits. Using this technology, an electronic subsystem and even the whole electronic system can be integrated on a chip to complete the functions of information acquisition, processing, storage and so on.

In the manufacturing process of VLSI, the sputtering technology, which belongs to the physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology, is one of the main technologies for the preparation of the electronic film materials.

The sputtering technology uses ions produced by the ion source to accelerate the integration of high speed ion flow in the vacuum, bombardment of the solid surface, and exchange the kinetic energy between the atoms of the ions and the solid surface, and make the atoms on the solid surface leave the target and deposited on the substrate surface, thus forming nano/micron thin films.

The bombarded solid is a sputtering target, which is simply a printing mold, and the quality of the target plays a vital role in the performance of the film, which directly determines the quality and performance of the downstream semiconductor chips, flat panel displays, solar cells and other electronic devices or optical components. The target material is the key raw material in the whole link.

Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) corporation is a global sputtering target manufacturer established in 1994. For more information, please visit
