Vanderbilt began playing football in 1890, and saw a good deal of early success, including two national championships and 11 conference championships in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Vanderbilt was at the height of its success when it helped found the SEC. Unfortunately the Commodores would never win another conference title, and would begin a steady decline that, other than a few highlights in the 1970's and '80s, would continue through to today. This hasn't kept Vandy from sending some terrific players to the NFL, including Jay Cutler, Hunter Hillenmeyer, and Todd Yoder. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Vanderbilt Commodores football tickets.
After 2 consecutive 9 win seasons, and 3 consecutive trips to a bowl game, the energy around the Vanderbilt Commodores football team is as high as it has been in a decade. 2014 will be an important year for the Commodores, as it marks the first year of head coach Derek Mason's tenure at Vandy. He brings with him a new 3-4 defense and a will to keep the Dores moving towards the top of the SEC. Key to this success will be Kyle Woestmann and Caleb Azubike, who anchor what will be one of the most dangerous defensive fronts in the SEC. Mason will turn the offensive side of the ball over to redshirt freshman Johnny McCrary, but will rely heavily on senior Kellen Williams and the running game. Exciting matchups on Vanderbilt's 2014 football schedule are September 6th against Ole Miss, November 8th against Florida, and November 29th against in-state rival Tennessee.
Check out our Vanderbilt Commodores Season Preview History page for previews of previous Commodores seasons.
The Vanderbilt Commodores play their home games at Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee. Opened in 1922, rebuilt in 1981, and seating a capacity of nearly 40,000, Vanderbilt Stadium is a historic and beautiful venue to watch some of the best college football in the country. A home game in the ultra-competitive SEC is second to none, especially with the giant-killing Commodores fighting to regain their place as a football power. The Vanderbilt Commodores home bench is on the Vanderbilt Stadium with sections B-F. Vanderbilt Stadium parking information is covered in our Commodores event guide.
Ole Miss Rebels, Tennessee Volunteers
Two of the founding members of the SEC, these two teams have played over 85 times since 1894. With similar sized student bodies and their close proximity to each other, these interstate rivals are very evenly matched and always produce one of the best games in the SEC. With both teams primed to make runs at the SEC elite, this game promises to have major conference implications to add to the already electric environment.
The bitterest intrastate rivalry in Tennessee is one of the best matchups that no one is talking about. Tennessee has dominated this series for a long time, but Vanderbilt faithful will tell you that many of the games have come down to the last drive. With Vanderbilt's recent resurgence in recruiting and wins, this already hard-fought rivalry will be one not to miss.
This Nashville based University, the Vanderbilt Commodores, are the proud owners of 570 plus victories and 14 conference titles across the SIAA and the Southern Conference. Now apart of the SEC, they will look to add to their already illustrious bowl history, which features a healthy .500 record. Ticketcity offers tickets to all college football bowl games and the SEC Championship Game.
The best place to park for Commodores football games is the 25th Avenue Garage (25th Avenue & Jess Neely Dr), it's only a couple blocks from the stadium and only costs $10. There is free parking available at the Scarritt Place (21st Ave South & Scarritt Place) and Wesley Place (21st Ave. South & Terrance Place) garages but you are looking at a little more of a walk from these garages. Scarritt Place is significantly closer so so try that one first. The closest are the National Commodores Club Lots which require a donation to the National Commodores Club to get the NCC parking pass. RV parking outside NCC is available at the Nashville fairgrounds and run approximately $35 per night, reservations are not required but they are recommended. There is no RV parking on campus.
If you are a fan of the visiting team, sections R, S, T, U & V are allocated to visiting teams. The lower level seats, closer to the action, are in sections U and V which sell fast. If you are a Commodores fan, sections C, D & E give the best view of the entire field with rows 11-39 giving enough elevation for a great experience.
Vandyville is an area designated by the university for fans and students to tailgate, it is located on the corner of Jess Neely Drive and Natchez Trace. It opens 3 hours prior to kick off. This area is heavily reserved for Vanderbilt fans and requires the submittal of completed questionnaire to obtain a spot, so opposing team fans are encouraged to enjoy another location. Because of the location in downtown Nashville, there are limited tailgating areas but if you see some open space and green grass don't hesitate to claim your spot.
Stadium gates are opened two hours before kickoff. Arrive early to ensure you don't miss the start of the game.
The Star Walk is unique game day experience that starts 1 hour before game time. Fans, the Spirit of Gold Marching Band, Cheerleaders and dance squad all meet on Jess Neely Drive. The team come from the McGuin Center down a path marked by Star V logos painted on the ground. It hypes up the team, fans and offers a chance to see the team up close prior to the game.
I found buying from ya'll is the easiest ticket buying experience I've had. I recommend to everyone.Andy - New Orleans, LA

Oh, you could say that you pay for any of those programs in taxes, but what people don't seem to realize is that the taxes they pay on a truckdriver's salary (for example) don't come anywhere near close to paying for the amount they use those services. So, the vast majority of us are getting quite a bit for free. It's only the very wealthy who have any grounds for complaint, and even they are being taxed minimally now compared to other times in history.
Somehow, though, they've gotten all the blue collar workers to do the dirty work for them and rail against the same social programs that these workers reap all kinds of benefits from.
So you're OK with paying more money so a corporation can make profit off of people's health (including denying people coverage)?
Seany, you wrote "thats right i work hard send my self truckdriver school on my own. not what Goverment can do for you!! obam care is WEFAIR!! call for them get a job and work hard ! i was told i never get any where i was not smart had learning disblity . . . "
If true, you've accomplished a great thing and I, for one, really admire you for it.
thax you
lol, the atrocious grammar aside, the real point I'm trying to make is this~
If you have gone through your entire life without ever taking money from the government, and don't ever plan on collecting SSI or any other gov't fund, I have nothing to say. Thats totally your prerogative; but to insist that social welfare programs shouldn't be in place is RIDICULOUS. Do you understand how much money the government hands out not just in the public realm, but to corporate enterprises? So its ok for companies that make billions of dollars to get handouts, but not people who make thousands? you might want to look into "government handouts" and "corporate welfare" before you make blanket statements about whether it is wrong or right.

WebMD Feature

Reviewed by
Louise Chang, MD
You're not a kid anymore. Maybe you're not exactly an adult woman yet, but you know that your body changes when you're a teen -- and you're so ready to move on.
On the other hand, all these changes can completely stress you out. You may worry that you're not getting breasts as soon as the other girls. Or that you got your period way before everyone else, and OMG, what if that pad falls out of my bag?
As all this is happening, remember three important things:
There are a few things about the big P -- puberty -- that happen to every girl, and that every girl has questions about.
This is the biggie every girl wonders about. When will I get it? Am I the first one? Am I the last one? What if I get it in the middle of class and I bleed right through my pants and everyone sees?
"Girls wonder how to handle their period at school -- that's one of the biggest things," says Elizabeth Alderman, MD, professor of clinical pediatrics at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine in New York and an expert in issues affecting adolescent girls. "I tell them that there are some ways that you can predict when you're likely to get your first period, and there are things you can do to prepare."
Doctors measure the beginning of puberty using something called the Tanner scale, which looks at how much pubic hair you have and how much your breasts have developed. If you don't have any pubic hair yet, or just a little peach fuzz, and your breasts are still mostly flat, you probably have some time before getting your period. But once you start to see coarser, curlier hair down there, and your breasts start to poke out a little, then odds are good that your period will soon follow.
So be prepared:
"During puberty, even the skinniest of girls develop more body fat," Alderman says. "You go from straight board to hips, breasts, and all that. It can be pretty upsetting, but then it can be even more upsetting if it's not happening to you when it's happening to all the others."
Despite what you may have heard, you can't make your breasts grow faster, and you can't slow down your body's development either. All you can do is remember that everyone evens out in the end.
"If you're an early developer, soon the others will catch up and wonder what all the fuss is about," says Lynda Madaras, author of My Body, My Self for Girls. She taught puberty education in California for more than 20 years. "If you're slow to develop -- well, you don't see a lot of adults walking around who haven't been through puberty. We all have our own timetable. It happens when it happens."
It's not like you've never sweated before, but did it always stinkso much? Nope.
Teenage sweat is different from kids' sweat. You sweat more, and it smells different, because, with your hormones in overdrive, the glands in your armpits are getting a lot more active. The sweat they put out combines with bacteria to emit a smell that's not exactly sweet perfume.
Hair in unwanted places is a common side effect of puberty. "Body odor and excess body hair often tend to go together," says Alderman. "Girls get hairy arms or hairy upper lips, and it can be embarrassing."
You can do certain things to help minimize the appearance of your body hair. "If a girl is younger, I'd recommend cosmetic things like waxing, depilatories, or bleaching," Alderman says.
You can also shave your legs, underarm area, and bikini line, but don't shave your face -- that's just for guys.
If you have a lot of unwanted hair, irregular periods, and bad acne, and also struggle with your weight, you might have a condition called polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). If these things are happening to you, your doctor may check you for PCOS. If you have it, there are medications that can help with the hair and other symptoms.
Boys tend to get worse acne than girls, because their skin makes more oil, but that doesn't mean you'll be spared. Almost everyone gets acne at some point during their teen years.
With acne, as with sweat, it's bacteria that are causing the problem. So for most mild to moderate cases of acne, you can keep it under control by:
Through all of these changes, what you really need is someone to talk to. Yeah, bringing up your period to mom might seem like as much fun as walking through school with a giant zit on your nose, but you might be surprised how much she'll understand.
"To get past the embarrassment factor, one thing you can do is bring it up in the car," Madaras says. "It's much easier because you don't have to look at each other. And try introducing the subject by asking about their experiences first, rather than plunging into yours: 'When you were my age, were you nervous about getting your period? Did Grandma ever talk to you about using deodorant?'"
If your parents are totally useless, or you're not comfortable going there with your Mom, that doesn't mean there's no one you can talk to. Try a favorite teacher, your aunt, a cool guidance counselor, or maybe your best friend's mom.
Madaras also recommends thinking about strategies for how you'll manage the embarrassing stuff ahead of time. What if the hot guy from chemistry class sees you buying a box of sanitary pads? What if you realize you're sweating up a storm after gym class and you don't have any deodorant? "What would you do if that happened? How would you survive the experience?" Madaras asks. "It's easier to handle things if you aren't taken by surprise."
Remember, all your friends are worrying and wondering about these things, too. "I get letters and e-mails all the time from girls asking if the size of their nipples is normal, if their period is normal, if their pubic hair is normal," Madaras says. "And you know what? Almost every single time, it is."

This conversation is closed.
is the death of free thinking down to society or our education system?
There has been a recent demise in the amount of free thinking done in the world. if one compares our generation in comparison to other decades, protests of 70's, creativity of 80's and innovation of 90's, on must ask the question, why do we no longer question things or fight for what we believe in? I originally believed it was society, that we believed that there was nothing more to think of, nothing new after computers to think of, that we had reached the final frontier according to society. As well as there not being a cause high profile enough for people fight for, nothing like Vietnam for people to fight against. Then i realised that possibly it is not society or what is happening that is killing our need to free think, fight and/or innovate. Yet are we not in the same situation as past generations? Eg. They invented the TV but we felt the need to invent the computer. Is our school system not possibly, by constricting us to such extents, possibly killing free thinking and making what is possibly, extinct? They change the way we perceive problems so we approach it with blinkers on, instead of allowing our free thinking and imagination to solve problems in a whole variety of the ways? Which has the greater influence f the two ...?
Fritzie -
Jan 8 2013: Why do you say people no longer question things? Where specifically is this true?
- +3
Why do you say people are less invested in creativity and innovation? Where specifically is this true?
It seems that in many parts of the world people are extremely expressive of their dismay about the status quo, with great and vocal disagreement about how to change things.
It also seems that there is enormous interest in entrepreneurship, both private and social, a large industry of making individuals and businesses more creative/innovative... The big thing now in this area is "design thinking."
People take pride in being different, innovative, critical of one or another version of the establishment, thinking outside the box...
So I am having trouble finding some traction in the premise here.
It is a very interesting question, I think, why in popular culture so many people are so heavily invested in the assumption that "we" no longer think and question, no longer invest ourselves in using imagination to change what we find wrong in the world and so forth. Is it about the desire to define an identity or group identification a bit superior to an "other" who is for the purpose usefully caricatured as unthinking and unimaginative?
Jan 9 2013: You and I are absolutely on the same page.
I think a lot of people try to apply their localized life onto the general population. They hear bad news in the media, and they irrationally think that those events are universal.
Innovators and free thinkers are out there as they always have been, doing what they have always done - creating and improving, or purposely destroying and harming the world we live in, and carrying, on the backs of their efforts, all of humanity.Jan 8 2013: i don't know if free thinking is in decline. but if it is, i would point out that the education system is a created by the society, so the ultimate cause of lack or abundance of free thinking must be society. we don't have anyone else to blame.
Jan 9 2013: Man you and I agree too often these days, what has the world come to?Jan 8 2013: How many threads do we need attempting to argue against the value of education? In order to discuss the cause, we must first demonstrate that the basic premise is true - that free thinking is dead. It's not.
Gail .
Jan 8 2013: It has certainly gone dormant in the larger part of society.
- +1
Jan 8 2013: It has ALWAYS been dormant in the larger part of society. That is what is meant by being a free thinker - a willingness to go against the majority in thought; to create something new and different.
Your argument suggests that something has changed. Prove it beyond anecdotal BS.Jan 8 2013: 3rd one is most important for Free Thinking that is Individual's Curiosity and desire to Think out of the Box
No society / education system ever allowed Free Thinking....
Gail .
Jan 8 2013: Isn't that the truth. (Well, it can't be stamped out, but it can be so hidden that only a rare few ever find it)Jan 9 2013: To earn a PHD, usually you have to propose something new.
- 0
Jan 9 2013: I don't think, Brock, that the value placed on imagination within education is limited to the elite level at all. I think students who combine rigor of thought, a drive to understand deeply, and a disposition to think independently and imaginatively are those who excel in educational settings from high school on.
But...those who are imaginative but do not engage in rigorous thought or and who are confident of their thoroughness of understanding even when they don't understand the matter at all, often will do poorly despite their imaginations.
Jan 9 2013: I agree completely. A solid understanding of the fundamentals(even to a lesser degree than a PHD) actually empowers the creative and makes them more effective in their creative endeavors.
A fun example might be: How do we send a man to the moon without first learning physics?Jan 13 2013: It's not matter of believe , rather talking about facts and proven pattern like "normal distribution".... which got no perspective !!!
Yes 360 degree perspective could be the best, definitely some people have it. However which perspective I am missing you think? How sure you are about that ?
I am also aware of "selective blindness" to facts. Thats natural also because despite of that humanity progressed and will do same in futureJan 14 2013: Fritzie, Diffusion Innovation in society almost all cases follow normal distribution curve.....that in turn gives the picture of readiness of society in accepting innovation....
Does it sound relevant to my argument ?Jan 9 2013: Understand your point about PhD but that again a process of certification.......though I don't have the statistics just as helicopter view...how many breakthrough ideas came so far from PhD thesis any idea about it?
Socertes, Plato, Darwin, Galileo, Da Vinci, Michael Angelo, Newton, Wright Brothers, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, (list will go long and long) none had PhD .....but how they changed the thought process of mankind?
Jan 9 2013: "how many breakthrough ideas came so far from PhD thesis any idea about it?"
Well, that is an interesting question, and I don't know the answer. However, if it were only once in the history of earth, it would still disprove the statement: "No society / education system ever allowed Free Thinking"
Consider John Nash of "A beautiful mind" fame... His doctorate was earned with his introduction of Game Theory that flew in the face of conventional wisdom regarding economics.Jan 11 2013: You know what you wish to believe, I think. It can be useful to try to see the other side as well.
There is a recent book edited by John Brockman in which about 150 of the top thinkers, mostly but not all science and analytical people, answer the question, "What have you changed your mind about?"
It is a shame that in modern times, at least, the willingness to stick to your position is so respected and the willingness seriously to consider other perspectives and change your mind from such open-mindedness less so.
Education/school is one place that encourages considering other perspectives. But often once people leave school, they just try to fit all the facts they come across into a prefered world view. Confirmation bias, it is called.Jan 13 2013: Salim, I am answering as close as I can to your question. I very much know what a normal distribution is but do not understand whether or how it relates to any argument you are making.Jan 10 2013: And that result did earn him his Nobel.
In reference to our earlier exchange, the reason I raised the point about education, imagination, and disposition to deep understanding and rigor is that too many people, I believe, talk themselves into the idea that their failures to excel in school stemmed from the environment's intolerance of imagination or critical attitudes when,in fact, it was their own unwillingness to confront their misconceptions, to think critically, or to be wrong that truly stood in the way.
Jan 10 2013: I actually don't think ANY student feels like their creativity is being stymied. I was in the Air Force for a really long time, and now I am going back to school on the GI Bill for a degree in computer science. I've lived in both the real world and academia, and both are fresh in my mind.
I am in school now and I can unequivocally say that academia encourages free thought more than just about any other place on the planet. More than that, I think some of the people posting here KNOW that that is true, and that is what they truly detest.
I just don't trust the motives of people that want to discourage education, or to try and perpetuate myths and fear of educated people.
It is pretty easy to raise the BS flag, because their argument is blatantly absurd on the surface. I love doing this though, because it allows me to challenge their motives and to mock them. In doing so, I let them take one step forward, but then I knock them two steps back by destroying their argument and then their motive!!! lol
Educated people tend to be more politically liberal and also tend to be less religious. Not all, of course, but the data is pretty clear.Jan 11 2013: The basic question , is whether Dr. Nash or Einstein was made by society or certification system we have in place....
Not aware of Dr. Nash case , will try to know but about Einstein referring to his boigraphy it's clear how much he was built by society or certification system to be once EINSTEIN. Moreover you agreed that he was not good in other subjects....so did the certification system gave him good grade (which is the method of ackonwledgement in education system) , if not how he was then encouraged by society or education system as kid ?
"Adoption of Innovation" follows normal distribution curve.......however the innovation in commercialization can drive that adoption a bit quicker otherwise it will be slower or even die once.......that means innovation need to be supported by another innovation.....it's not that our society always jumping to accept an iinovation right as it comes....Jan 10 2013: I agree that perpetuating myths and fear of formally educated people is unconstructive at best and often has a self-serving motive. It provides a basis for throwing out evidence, knowledge, and understanding in favor of prejudices.
I applaud those who take both their formal educations and independent education seriously. Formal education keeps you honest, because someone will likely let you know if you are actually clueless about a subject, whereas in independent study one can simply avoid any such check and can spend years becoming further and further deluded.
I have had the pleasure of learning from and working with highly conservative educated people as well as liberal people. I have found educated people tend to be more open-minded, precisely because academic life is about considering different arguments and explanations, evaluating evidence, and so forth.Jan 10 2013: Well , that can be subject for debate.... last statement of my first post here as reffered. As I have my own resolution not to open any subject here for conversation other than participating conversations that attracts my interest or curiosity, but will be you open that debate here....
I have little idea how much favor the new idea of Dr. Nash got at the begining from society or education system....Generally I was referring about the pain and anguish new thoughts get from the society and education system over the ages.....Moreover with current GREED based model many new thoughts / ideas get killed if the innovator can show the profitability of the same....
For new ideas and thoughts Galileo was jainled, what happened to Gandhi, Martin Luther King even Nelson Mandela for their new thoughts ? How much encouragement Einstein from the certification institutes he was going through to get so called education ? When first time TV or Computer was invented how much struggle those invention had to go through before being accepted....? The list can go long and longer to support my OPINION of that no society / education system ever supported Free Thinking.....
Have a good day @ Brock.
Jan 10 2013: Since you ask, both Nash and Einstein were acknowledged as geniuses even before the works that made them particularly famous. Einstein was a theorist and when his theory was empirically confirmed only about five years after he first proposed it, he became the most famous scientist in the world.
It is myth that Einstein did poorly in math and science in school. He was superlative in those subjects, though not good in some other subjects.
So neither Nash nor Einstein supports your case.
Those whose ideas challenge political or religious powers, in contrast, might be expected not to have their ideas embraced quickly by those entities, but this has nothing to do with any educational system.
I don't know whether TV and computer took off fast or slowly, though that would be easy to research. We can see how quickly new technologies take off today.Jan 10 2013: @Fritzie
I think the growth of TV and computers within the population was governed primarily by basic economic principles... i.e. the law of demand. As the cost of production decreased and subsequently the price as well, demand increased. Innovation followed Moore's law - a doubling of processing capability every two years. The quick adoption of new technologies benefit from the already low costs of production previously innovated by the computer and electronics industry.
Just my thoughts on that one subject...Jan 10 2013: Hi, Brock. I looked up the case of TV, but did not post my finding, as a figured anyone who really wanted to know could look it up as well.
TV became economical for mass production right before WW2 and so did not go into real production until after the war because of the diversion of resources, facilities, and interests for wartime needs and uses.
In terms of the broader question, paradigms don't shift instantly, but this is unrelated to their strangulation by school systems. It is because supporting evidence needs to be gathered and evaluated.Jan 14 2013: Oh, I see Salim. All you are saying is that when an idea is new, people don't tend just to throw away all their prior ideas immediately but rather to to check it out first. After all, new ideas are sometimes wrong! In the case of innovation, there are first adopters and then others follow. I think there is a Derek Sivers TED talk on this. Some ideas catch on really fast, like Einstein's. In scientific inquiry, there often needs to be enough evidence before scientists consider a conclusion statistically reliable. This scenario is unrelated to obstruction by the educational system but does describe how ideas are not immediately overthrown and replaced by new ones until some empirical support gathers.In a case mentioned earlier like ideas that would appear to threaten a predominant religious faith or ideology the dynamic is different than the diffusion of innovation generally. These issues are far afield of "the death of free-thinking!"
John Smith
Jan 8 2013: "if one compares our generation in comparison to other decades, protests of 70's, creativity of 80's and innovation of 90's, on must ask the question, why do we no longer question things or fight for what we believe in?"
- +1
Protest is still happening, but it's less than it used to be because in most countries the population has aged (old people don't protest, except for lower taxes). I don't know what you mean by the "creativity" of the 1980s, that time was shallow, commercial and tasteless if you ask me. By innovation of the 1990s you probably mean IT breakingthrough. We have no such breaktthrough today but that might just be coincidence, it's entirely possible that nanotechnology, genetic manipulation and artificial intelligence will cause huge breakthroughs in the coming decades.Jan 11 2013: People are not robots but they are becoming robots. Do not doubt that for one minute.
To think otherwise is to lie to oneself, otherwise known as self-deception.
Self-deception is the active misrepresentation of reality to ones own mind.
It is because of our brainwashing institutions, some formerly known as our education system.
The public is deceived, intentionally and has been for decades if not centuries.
People now believe what they are told to believe, think what they are told to think, say what they are told to say and do what they are told to do. Conversely, they do not believe what they are told not to believe, do not think what they are told not to think, do not say what they are told not to say and do not do what they are told not to do.
They are embedded with false information, rendering them Artificially Intelligent, as they become mental robots.
They think voting works, that laws solve problems, that politicians are necessary, and that by remembering the past, they will not repeat it when that is exactly what they do. They repeat what they remember. One cannot repeat what one cannot remember. Today, they have Manchurian Candidates and they are Manchurian Citizens.
The main effect of brainwashing is a dulled ability to reason. The second effect is an impeded ability to act.
People are coerced with the threat of violence, constant terror and fear mongering, destroying the economy and the value of their currency in order to keep them struggling and fearing not having an occupation, all while continuing to being pitted like wild animals for survival and having it make sense to them while they defend it as "normal".
Very ill.
Again, William Casey, the head of the CIA in 1981, said, "We will know when our program of disinformation is complete when everything the American people believe, is false."Jan 9 2013: It's impossible to separate those two even in principle.
one is simply mirroring the other.Jan 9 2013: There will always be influences that impact human thinking; but in the end human beings are not robots, and in some cases something new usually comes out of the pot-pourri of influences.
Protests? There are protests as usual. On the streets and on the social media.
One may be tempted to think free-thinking is on the decline because of the mass of people who follow trends like sheep, or because of the quick spread of original ideas to new places where a 'smart' folk can easily pass it as his or her own.
But the world is still as it was in the past; still 2 categories of people: the leaders, who are usually few, who are insightful, who take responsibility for their actions, courageous and disciplined.
And the followers, a mass of people.

Jan 8 2013: Don't discount things like FOX news. Include all those media outlets (including movies) that teach us to "BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!"
- 0
Fear (and our culture is very fear-based) increases activity in the amygdala part of the brain. The amygdala (pronounced eh-MIG-da-la) is responsible for for the fear/anxiety we feel. It causes the body to put out cortisol and adrenalin, and it is responsible for short term decisions. Short term decisions, as you know, are not rational unless it's an emergency do or die situation - and not even then sometimes.
Increased activity in the amygdala shuts off access to the frontal cortex & that's where RATIONAL, long-term decisions are made. That's the part that looks at situations, questions, seeks legitimate answers, and decides outside of the blinding limitations imposed by fear. It is the source of curiosity & critical thinking skills.
The most effective way (known off) to change from fear-centered to curiosity centered is with meditation. Those who practice it say that there were noticeable improvements within 3 months. It has been proven to not only decrease activity in the amygdala, but to turn on the frontal cortext and actually thicken it & raise IQ up to 6 points. It also raises EQ (of necessity).
But there is a quicker test. For one month, turn off TV, violent movies & thrillers, video games, and political/religious discussion. If you're a fundamentalist christian, stop going to church for a month. Spend that hour a week meditating. At the end of the month take some time out to asses whether or not you have fundamentally changed. If so, you might want to go the meditation route.
Those who do this are more judicious in their choices about what they invest themselves in (use their time) forever after. They have discovered what "free-thinking" means and its importance to "freedom".

Spunge (often typeset as [spunge] - lead singer Alex Copeland has joked that the brackets are in the name so that the letters do not fall out) are a ska punk band from Tewkesbury, England. Through many years of touring, Spunge have toured or played alongside with a number of moderately successful UK bands; and several more famous American bands such as Green Day and Dropkick Murphys; and been supported on a UK tour by Bowling for Soup; the latter of whom contributed backing vocals to the song "Centerfold" on the That Should Cover It! album. Spunge are the only band who has ever officially been given permission by the Marley family to change the lyrics of a Bob Marley song, on their cover of "No Woman, No Cry" (this can be found on their second album, Room for Abuse).[citation needed] The permission came from Ziggy Marley, who liked the new version when they played it to him.

|Screencast (courtesy of mouser, thanks!)
Original idea from mouser here: http://www.donationcoder....m/index.php?topic=20629.0
Bestimate is a utility designed to help you become more accurate and realistic about your predictions and promises. Add items like "Number of pages I will write this week" or "Number of pounds i will lose this month", and provide your predicted/promised values. Then, at the end of the time period, record your actual achieved values. Bestimator keeps track of how far off you were from your initial prediction/promise. Note that this program is intended to help you become more realistic about your predictions, so being off in either direction is just as bad!
- Track as many estimates as you would like.
- Real-time updating of estimates as you adjust the data.
- Export to CSV option.
Planned Features
I cater to the people so suggest something.
Unpack the archive to its own folder and run Bestimate.exe.
Using the Application
1. Right-click the list (or use the toolbar buttons) and choose "Add entry" from the menu. A new entry will be added to the list with some default values. You will see a grey icon as well. This signifies that the entry hasn't been completed yet.
2. Name the entry whatever you'd like and change the values as needed using the fields at the bottom.
3. The accuracy is calculated in realtime as you adjust the numbers.
4. Once you complete the entry by entering in an "Actual Value", the icon will turn green if 100% or red otherwise.
5. The status bar will show an average accuracy from all your entries.
Delete the folder you unpacked the archive to. Nothing is written to the registry.
Known Issues
It wouldn't be software if it didn't have issues. Let me know if you find any.


text: Link will explain along with game footage what/how the Engine works within the game. If you wait until the end there are a few more gameplay videos. It looks like it might be more Blitz-esque gameplay, but if they deliver on "motion capturing" it should be fun at the least.

I don't really blog anymore. Not because I am busy, or lazy. As this is an Artiste Blog, I try to refrain from blogging too much about my personal life most of the time, unless its interesting to share about. Since my departure from Singapore exactly a month ago, life's been boring. Its a very nostalgic feeling as I've been through this at the exact same period 7 years ago.After the album launch, some publicity had been made. And I've managed to have my own album promotion at Johor Bahru Malaysia as well. The post album launch period was full of meeting ups with friends and stuffs. Damn. I'm missing Singapore.Anyway, I spent about 2 weeks to settle downs in Hong Kong fixing up my own room into the way I wanted it, met up with some friends here, and started following my dad around. I'm trying to pick up some business skills by observing how he talk to business partners at meetings, at lunch, in private etc. I'm sure it will benefit me. Meanwhile I'm also actively looking around the Hong Kong Entertainment industry. There's sure much to see! I feel so small suddenly that I'm actually from a small little Island off South East Asia. Hong Kong is just.. Big and different. Not to forget there's mainland China, where I will spend occasional weekends with my Grandmother and relatives with.Life's never been so quiet and calm. Life's never been filled with so much order. Life's never been about staying with dad. I've never really grown up with my dad around me. Unlike my sister, my childhood was spent in Singapore with my mum, my sister, and two cousins while my dad is always flying around. I decided to stay put in Singapore alone when dad decided to move the whole family back to Hong Kong 7 years ago. So apart from childhood, I've never really lived with my dad except on short terms. I'm still not very used to it. The kind of law at home where he enforces. Sleeping early, waking up early, having breakfast every morning, coming home for dinner, cleaning the house regularly, cleaning the dishes after dinner. I never done all these when I'm staying alone in Singapore. I eat out everyday for goodness sake. Nevertheless, I know it is for my own good and I'm slowly learning to get used to it.All in all, I'm good here in Hong Kong and much apologies for the delayed blog post. I appreciate all my friends in Singapore for your good wishes. And yes, the very much delayed, Hello Hong Kong!
Its been 10 days, I'm officially a Recording Artiste. There had been a clash of events on 27th August with the Singapore Presidential Election, but I still managed to achieve over 100 attendees to come for my Album Launch. I can't be more blessed than this. My album was launched in K-Union, a brand new event location at Kbox Cineleisure lvl 8. Everything went pretty smoothly though I had been nervous 12 hours before the kickstart of the event, and at least for the first 15 minutes of it. I thought I screwed up two songs! Whats been going through my head all along was this:
Starting from a simple 3-person-drinking session, this project had been growing and becoming more and more possible, till the arrival of this day. the day where I realized my dream by myself. The saying is true. You gotta chase your dream yourself, not seat around and wait for things to happen.
I worked hard to make it happen. The 3 months of zero-income hectic schedule was worth it. Jae, your own album. Is here.
I'm grateful to see so much supporters. Be them family and friends, or my long term supporters, or people whom I've never met in my life. Especially the latter, I'm so glad to see that there are actually supporters who are willing to come down to show support to someone they don't even know. More pictures available at the picture folder above :)
The autograph session was great. I may feel very tired over that but the satisfaction was there. For those who had left earlier, actually I gave an encore song just before we wrap up and leave.
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wY7kE9ABtwFor those who knows Japanese, please don't laugh at me. I totally got the lyrics wrong. And for those who don't know, please ignore the above sentence :) Thanks again to my sister Jessica for doing on-the-spot-unrehearsed backing vocal!
Too many thanks to give. I may be the entire project's organiser myself, but there are things that I simply can't accomplish on my own.
My Music production team Eddie, Norris, Neil, Kevin, and not forgetting my teacher Fei Hui Lao Shi.
My Music Video production team Cherlyn, Eugene, Mavis, Andy, Andrew, Jason, Paloma.
My EP Launch behind the scenes Victor, Pamela, Lora, Winnie, Haiwen, Steven, Xavien, Evangeline.
My artiste management and recording company William, Mr Osman, Joseph, Irene, Serena.
My sponsors SaraShantelle, Haru, KBox and Alivenotdead.
And of course, special thanks goes to Mio, Leo, Wenjun, Edric, Francis, my family and F4 Family. I will be at Johor Bahru KSL City this Sunday 11th September 8pm for my album promotion. If you are there, come by and show some support! Thanks!
I can't wait. I don't know what else can I say apart from the previous few blogs. I'm so nervous, excited, anxious, looking forward, unprepared, prepared, various mixed feelings. Sorry for the short blog. See you on Saturday.
As promised! Look forward to it my friends! I myself am extremely entertained by myself. You will love it!
If you know me long enough, you'll know of the song Mosquito Bites 蚊子咬咬. Penned and sung by yours truly finally in this EP Album. The last time this song was seen was 3 years ago! And it was written like.. 4 years ago?
I don't call myself a songwriter because that's the only song I'd ever dare to let people hear it. Its pretty much a tasteless song considering the simplicity of the lyrics and melody. The reason why it was written was simply because I was forced to. I remembered during my time under training with Roy Li Feihui Laoshi, we were forced to write a song monthly and present it in class. Mosquito Bites was my 3rd month homework. I was still in the army at that time and totally ran out of ideas. I grabbed a guitar and was jamming to 'You're unbelievable' by EMF when I was attacked by a mosquito. It was a hot afternoon with no trainings for the day. Everyone was slacking off in the bunk (hostel room for army boys). The lyrics came out easily with the aid of my man Thomas Su. A year later came a local programme meant to promote Singapore Music titled 'SPOP Hurray' which comes with a Song-writing competition. Feihui Laoshi aided a few of us with completing a demo arrangement and went on for submission. Out came the demo and into the Finals I went. The TV Station rearranged my song for the Show though but I still liked the Demo version Feihui laoshi and I arranged together.
There had been a misunderstanding all along for most of my friends. What you find on the top right hand corner of this page, where the media box is, are the two different versions (demo version and TV station mixed version) of 蚊子咬咬. The misunderstanding was the (sung by Jae Leung) part. None of them are sung by me. Instead, the TV Station mix was sung by my two senior Jeremy Kwan and Jeff Teay while the demo was sung by Jeff alone. I just didn't bother to change it. I sung once at HMV@313Somerset Launch though.
I really looked funny and cheesy back then. Here's the video of me on the competition!
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQOevtygR8g&feature=relatedI hope with the official release of 蚊子咬咬, we can ease the pain of the dengue arc around the world and help create awareness XD
And of course, I'm pleased to have this song, back at the arrangement done by Feihui Laoshi and I, in my EP Album. An MV is shot for it as well. Next blog, behind the scenes of 蚊子咬咬 MV revealed. Stay tuned!
An old picture during the Spop Era.
(P.S Anybody knows whats the English/Mandarin word for '蚊懒'?)
Why the title 算了,够了? In English it means 'Forget it, Enough'.
I didn't mean anything negative actually. Of course, I had been facing persuasions from my friends and family in Hong Kong for years. Everyone is asking me to head back. It simply literally means that. I had enough of swaying my thoughts. I know I want to go home but I simply couldn't let go of Singapore. So at this point, I decided its enough. Forget everything I built here. Its Asia I should be looking at, not solely Singapore.
I hasn't been a very happy person lately. This is something more personal and I can't share it here. But what I can share is personal friends and brotherhood had swayed apart over the years as we grow up. We shared same ideals and made a powerful combination during school days (and post school days). In 2004, much tears were shed for me and by me when I left. I came back in 6 months (LOL). It hasn't been a fun process to go through that again. Now that everyone of us had our own lives, I think its enough of the 'I will miss you' crap. We are adults now and frankly speaking, we learnt that true friends need not to be hanging out together all the time. What is important is in here thumps my chest At the end of the day, whatever happens in our own individual lives, whatever affecting factor there are, there isn't a thing that would change our heart and the brotherhood formed. I been through that. I've done crazy shits unto my comrades, not exactly expecting forgiveness, but I got. I love you my brothers. This, will not be forgotten for the rest of my life.
Anyway I'm off-track with the title. Yes I am frustrated with a lot of things in life. Who isn't? People at my age are either getting frustrated over not getting a job after obtaining a degree. Some struggling in life with their offspring. Some excelled in their own field but are pressured by family to get married. Some simply has no idea what to do about their life and let days pass by. This song is actually dedicated to the Generation Y.
Life's strangling you everyday. Life's shouting into your ears. Life's crying. Life's making you unhappy. Life's pressurizing you. Life's throwing tantrum at you. Life needs you to please them. Life's driving you crazy.
This is a complain song. Hope you will enjoy it.
Actually, some close friends who heard it told me its kinda like a continuation to 蚊子咬咬 (mosquito Bite). Something about had enough of trying to get that mozzie, giving up on killing it and just let it bite whatever. I liked that idea. Maybe I can say at during press conference!
Speaking of 蚊子咬咬, the recording of both mandarin songs are done as of today. Turned out good! I can't wait to hear the final product. I'd like to specially thank Neil and Kevin of MB Studio for the kindness and the fantastic job. Looking forward!
Some people may ask me, Why release an EP now? In Singapore? But you are leaving right after to HongKong! Why not release it in HongKong?
Well, I guess its my attachment to this country Singapore. I grew up here. I spent most of my life here and this is where I started off. I'd like to give thanks to all the people who supported me in the industry here by doing something before I leave, and of course all are invited to come and get a free copy on the 27th August. Thats the most I can do. And in another angle, I'm also giving thanks to those who had ever said 'Jae wouldn't make it'. I thank them because without these people, I wouldn't have the energy to push ahead, to prove them wrong.
Of course, I'd like to bring this album back to HongKong as my own form of memory for Singapore. 7 years ago I had a departure from the Lion City. It was also in August. I cried and cried as I missed my friends and comrades-in-arms. I sort of regretted it and I ended up coming back here six months later to serve the army. I wouldn't want any of those regrets anymore. A good memory should be left the way it is, and having something physical now is the perfect goodbye.
My friends in Singapore, don't worry. We are all cosmopolitans in this new age. Who says I'm not ever stepping into Singapore ever again? I'm just moving house! I can always come back for holiday!
Let me get this straight. I'm temporary moving over to business for the next few years. Opportunity comes, I'll take them if my schedule permits. I'm not retiring from entertainment line. Its just a little break. And some time for me to do about my life as well. I missed my family. My lil sister misses me and wants her brother at home to share woes. My mother is lonely and needs someone to go facial and shopping with. My father. Wow. I can't calculate how much I owned him. I want to do something for him. Its not like he's not proud of what I'm doing. He comes for my shows. He flies in to Singapore just to catch them. But he is getting old. And tired. I want to spend time with him. I can't be selfishly chasing cars out there all the time. Everytime I visit HongKong, and just before I board my returning flight to Singapore, I think about staying at home. A home where I have my own dining table, a home where I can do whatever I want, a home where I have my own personal seat on the sofa in the living room for TV. I can't wait for the moment my flight touches down HongKong.
My producer Eddie Chow had made this story into a song, which is the third song in my EP. I'm sure you'll love it.
Recordings had started. Stay tuned for the next few posts as I'll tell you more about the other two songs, 蚊子咬咬 and 算了,够了.
The wait is now over. After months of in-activeness, I'm ready to announce that I'm releasing my First personal EP Album in Singapore before returning to stay in Hong Kong.
Date: 27th August 2011
Time: 2pm-4pm
Location: K-Union, K-box at Cineleisure, Singapore

I'll admit. I hasn't been focus. I hasn't been disciplined. I hasn't been knowing of what I want for myself. I'm lost.
September 2004. My family had to move back to HongKong due to unforeseen circumstances and I had to leave my friends and everything I had behind in Singapore to start afresh. I was equally lost. Still a young teenager then, I decided to make my way back to Singapore, alone, to serve the country and to reunite with my friends. To find a purpose in life back then. I done it, and moved back and stayed here for the next 6 years. Achieving alot. Lost alot. Been through alot.
Life without family support is all about independence. It is cool to have the freedom, but you have to get matured. Apparently I didn't. I tried my best to excel in what I like to do. But reality kicks in and devastate your dreams.
September 2011. I will be heading back to HongKong, Permanently.
I thank everyone who had been guiding me through the hectic life of mine. I am starting on a new job. Something that I may not necessary like, but definitely good for me. Life in the showbiz is glamorous, but also challenging. I'm moving over to business. I would love to stay in the circle and do some filmings/shows/events/recordings on a part time/hobby basis. And I will still keep this blog as my personal blog.
With that said, Jae Leung, the Actor/Singer/Model, will be officially known as Jae Leung, the businessmen as of September 2011.
Friends in Singapore, I will be glad to meet up with you before that for catch ups and all.
Ok time for something less emotional. Yes! I had been so neglecting my blog since I lost the willpower to type something down. So much had happened the past 6 months. 'Where should I start? Ok forget it I'll not blog at all.' had been going through my mind over and over whenever I opened up Alivenotdead homepage.
Ok I better start up a series of updates of some highlights over the past 6 months in the next few weeks! Remember me saying there's something big coming up soon? Yes. There will be. And it will happen in Singapore just before I leave.
Updated Picture.

Women on Top
CNN HLN 'News and Views' Anchor Jane Velez-Mitchell
Raised in midtown Manhattan (where she still lives) by an advertising executive father and a mother who was a former vaudeville dancer, Jane Velez-Mitchell has show business and media in her blood. Every night, she and her father would go over the daily paper with her father, discussing the news of the day. She credits those experiences as having made current events part of her comfort zone.
After receiving a degree in broadcast journalism from New York University, she worked as a local news reporter for TV stations in Fort Myers, Fla.; Minneapolis; Philadelphia; and, eventually, New York, where she spent eight years at the CBS flagship station. She jumped coasts to work in Los Angeles, in time becoming an on-air reporter for the syndicated program Celebrity Justice, where she covered the Michael Jackson trial. "Every night I did a report for Nancy Grace," Velez-Mitchell recalled. "She asked me my opinions on the case, and that was really fun after years of 'just the facts.'"
Velez-Mitchell now admits that during that time she was deeply closeted. She said she tried to stay in denial by becoming "a practicing alcoholic, drinking down my sexual orientation." She became sober 17 years ago, published a memoir about her experience, and finally came out to her co-workers, her public and herself.
"It was astounding how quickly I came to terms with it after I stopped drinking," Velez-Mitchell said. "The fears I had were mostly self-generated, about what would happen if anyone found out." The catalyst for her decision was covering Sen. Larry Craig of Idaho's "toe-tapping" airport-bathroom scandal. The Republican's hypocrisy made her feel like a hypocrite.
"During a commercial break, I called my girlfriend and told her I was coming out," she said. "I got back on and told the audience that I live with a woman. A fascinating thing happened: Nothing. Nobody cared; it was a big yawn to them."
Jane Velez-Mitchell, which replaced conservative TV personality Glenn Beck (who moved to Fox News for a time), airs daily on HLN, CNN's sibling channel. She is active in the company's out-employee diversity group and has become a vocal gay rights advocate.
"Without any irony, it's been fabulous," Velez-Mitchell said. "As for being a woman of color, I've always embraced my heritage. I'm thrilled to be Puerto Rican and Irish; it's a great combination. And it's great to have a diverse newsroom, because you bring your perspective to the table as a member of the gay community or a Latina, as a vegan and animal rights activist."
Velez-Mitchell is most gratified, however, by opportunities her position affords her to help people, such as an early effort to fly an injured service member's wife to a reunion with her husband in Germany. "I want to speak for the voiceless, for children, the elderly, those who are challenged or disabled, and animals," she said. "HLN has given me a wonderful opportunity to open my circle of compassion wider, even to farm animals. Of course this connects back to humans. It's not an either-or. It's no longer man verses nature; we're both on the same side."
In a competitive industry, she gives advice with legs: Approach it like your life depends on it. "It's got to be a mission; it's not a job, it's a vocation," Velez-Mitchell said. "You need to be on a mission to survive in this business."
New York City LGBT Community Center Executive Director Glennda Testone
For the past three years, Glennda Testone has been at the helm of New York's large and vibrant LGBT Community Center, which provides dozens of resources. She previously held posts at the Women's Media Center and the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Discrimination.
"I knew that I wanted to help people," Testone told EDGE. "That's how I was raised, to give back. And when I realized I was a member of the LGBT community, I thought running an LGBT nonprofit and helping people in our community every day was the coolest job ever.
If being out helped her snag her current job, Testone is well-aware that self-doubt is the biggest obstacle for most women. Among her proudest achievements is securing funds to keep a foster care program operating. "Every LGBT young person deserves to have a supportive family," Testone said. "I was very fortunate to have that growing up. Not everyone does, and getting funding to help them have a positive experience is priceless."
Testone approaches physical fitness as avidly as she does social causes. For the past three years, she has completed the Cycle for the Cause, a 350-mile bike ride from Boston to New York that raises funds for the center's HIV programs. Although she didn't initially think she could make it, she persevered, and overcame her mental and physical blocks.
She has advice for young women reaching for a high goal: "Do it! Don't get discouraged. Try not to take things too personally. Just focus on the good that you're doing and move forward."
Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center's Lorri L. Jean
Lorri Jean was a young attorney involved in LGBT activism when she realized that the activism part was a lot more fun than the law part. She wanted to work for the LGBT movement full-time but also didn't want to starve, so she looked for a job that would put her in a leadership role.
"One day, I got a call saying that there was a job in L.A. with my name all over it," Jean told EDGE. "I thought I would do more national work, but when I came down to check out the center, I was blown away. The plan I had put in motion to get the skills I needed on my résumé worked out, and they offered me the job."
Jean has headed the center since 1993. She's proud of how she and her staff have developed it into one of the largest LGBT organizations in the world, serving tens of thousands of clients every month. Jean is also working on an LGBT foster care program, thanks in part to a $13 million, five-year government grant. Several years ago, in an effort to fight the epidemic of teen suicides, she said, "I picked up the phone and called the L.A. Unified School District ... and said, 'We can't do business as usual. We have to create a program in schools that stop kids from thinking about suicide.'"
Jean partnered with the district to change the culture in schools. She worked with a large coalition on an innovative, comprehensive safe-schools program. "There is nothing like it happening anywhere in the country," she said. "I hope other school districts look at it as a model and implement it in their schools."
In the first few years of her tenure at the L.A. center, she oversaw a fundraising campaign in which several of the biggest donations came from women - exploding the myth that women aren't big in philanthropy.
Such initiatives are necessary in a leader. "It's about jumping in and doing the hard work, being a team player ... being extremely thoughtful about the suggestions you provide," Jean told EDGE. Treating everyone with respect, maintaining a high level of integrity, admitting mistakes and apologizing sincerely when wrong should guide every woman who wants to be prominent in her field, she said.
Keeping the right company is also key. "Surround yourself with stars in terms of ethics and ability, and never be threatened by someone who is better than you," Jean said. "Finding a mentor is important. It used to be virtually impossible to find lesbian mentors, but now there are a lot more. Look around and see who is doing the work in a way that you admire, connect with them and ask them if they will mentor you."

Step 1: The horror of the desk, oh the horror!
As our job descriptions grow ever more inclusive, the desk must be ever more accomodating. Chaos must be reared higher than before, as measured by inches of potential energy. Use the space above. A new idea? No, you know that, I know that. But design it yourself. You know your own needs, your ergonomics, exactly how far you stretch and yawn, how far you cant over in a faint, how many inches you push back paper to make elbow room, what things you need at hand. In this wooden shelf, I accomdated two realities: my life as a teacher demands two shelves, cognitized vertically -- daily class gear on top, supporting materials below on the lower shelf -- all done up in glowing wood to remind me that these office rectangles once began as flowing organic shapes in a world with no straight lines excepting the flights of subatomic particles of low mass.
In the open space below the shelf, you see a semi-vertical rectangluar surface, canted perfectly to take things demanding doing, and frequently used heavy books. When I am bored, I just randomly open the dictionary and read a word and its derivation, and associatively follow chains of meaning until I'm bored again. When students walk in and see the open dictionary, they know I am serious when I tell them to "look up the goddamned word if you don't understand it." The semi-vertical-leaning-stuff-shelf (the hyphen is your best friend) is free in horizontal space to better adjust to momentary ergonomic needs.
Yes, a yet third semi-vertical surface is present, another book-stand from my ancient days. I can't bear to get rid of it despite that it hasn't yet a well-defined function except to collect official memos from which I will be enacting nothing. Perhaps that's the answer?

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Yes! There are hints given
No! I only believe in what I see

still, to assume a kage level ninja doesn't know shadow clone is stupid considering we've seen both his student and son use the tech, and honestly who gives a rats ass as to what some butt hurt fan says about a vs match, next thing we'll be seeing is Hashirama is unable to mold chakra threadz sprouting up everywhere.
Wait what...? The stupidity of some people amaze me... F*ck it. Zabuza, Ibuki, Ebisu, Gaara, Orochimaru, Gai Sensei and Neji and all the Kage's can do shadow clones even Kushina could. Anyone who argues with me is a retard simply because those are all jounin level ninja or above hence they must be able to do Kage Bushin. (Sarcasm...) Seriously please show me where in the manga it's even stated that he can do the technique....

.... Tell me, why the hell not? Its even more ignorant if you can't make an inference without it being exactly refered from the manga.
Give me one good reason why he cant? snyone?

kage bushin no jutsu is a jutsu that create a copy of the performers not images (bushin no jutsu is create an image only cannot attacks or phisically touch anaything) . it can attacks and react with things. its hards to know which are the true body even with sharingan...
i personally thinks that minato can performs kage bushin but not tajuuuu kage bushin no jutsu... but the amount of bushin is limited maybe 4.. becoz of the chakra level... he never seen using it becoz he didnt need it.. kage bushin usually use to be at many place in a time.. but minato has FTG so he seems doesnt need to use it... hehehe..
lmao gai can perform kage bushin and use clone to perform the gates and gang bang opponents
Prove me wrong
oh i forgot you can't because he is a jounin and should know this technique.
How sure hope not, we have enough Clone Spammers
i guess kakashi said in a episode that ...he and fourrth hokage hadn't so much chakra to perform rasen shuriken
with a help of a kage bunshin like naruto. in other words he knew kage bunshin bud just didn't had enough chakra.
(m not sure though..just a theory) ...
Wow this stupid thread is still up?
Yes man its a funny question,how can a genuise not know how to kage bushine,and on top of that a kage. Lol funny indeed. Yes 99% he can.
God your all retarded.he dint use it,manga doesn't hint he can thereforehe can't.
its as dumb an argument as saying sakura can use them.
Lets say itachi had a son. Would he be a master at shuriken jutsulike his dad? Its likely since immediate family tend to have very similar techs. If we inverse that, if his son naruto could do the kagebunshin, its quite likely minato could as well. This tech is not anywhere near as hard nor does it require even a fraction of the chakra needed to teleport a tbb/the kyuubi. So if minato could do that id say yes he can do this. Its not really such a big deal.
There is an 80% probability he can, though it wouldnt be so beneficial for him. It would take 50% of his chakra, is not something to be betting upon, also, who needs clones when he can be everywhere at the same time?
Of course he can...

Give me a reason why he cant!!! I'm not saying he can full blown spam them, but it's not even an element! Its a fair inference. He meets all requirements to use it.
He has a good chakra flow.
He knows how to form hand seals.
He's smart as hell.
It would be pointless to show minato using SC's, because he does not need them. Common, use ur goddamn common sense would you?
lol, this thread just got me mad.
guyz what wrong?kage bushin just B rank and kakashi can use it perfectly,remember he uses it during the end of the fight between haku and zabuza,but why do you think he doesnt use it so much like naruto?it because he as lower chakra compered to naruto. .naruto as ten times the chakra of kakashi..same goes with minato cos naruto takes over from kushina,puting chakra aside naruto uses it cos it part of is fighting style,and also you dont need to make over 100 clone to make it kagebushin just more than two clone is kagebushin(itachi,sasuke,jeraiya,kakashi,the third,minato,orochimaru even tsunade,to them kagebushin is just a troublesome,boring technique that drain chakra and not part of their top ten fighting style but its narutos number1)so dont go saying others cant cos their is no frigging way it only naruto and konohamaru with the jutsu,probably more than 10 ninjas in konoha should be able to,they probably will never get to narutos level with kagebushin cos of chakra
Idk i want to say yes because he was such a power shinobi and hes my favorite character so i would like to say he can do anything lol but the manga didnt say he could so im gonna have to say no

The Brockway Rovers remained undefeated on the season at 7-0 as they handed the Elk County Catholic Crusaders their first loss of the season Saturday night by a 35-14 score.
The Allegheny Mountain League South Division contest was played at Dutch Country Stadium before a crowd in the neighborhood of 2,000.
Also in the contest, Brockway's Derek Buganza set the state passing record. Buganza now has 8,549 yards. Saturday night he was 21 of 29 for 268 yards. The Brockway senior needed 266 yards going into Saturday's game to break the record.
The Crusaders and the Rovers battled to a 14-14 halftime tie in a game that looked like the last team to have the ball would win.
The Rovers, however, took advantage of a blocked punt to score on a short field, then drove 75 yards late in the third period to raise their lead to 28-14. They would drive 79 yards on 13 plays in the fourth quarter to cement the win.
"Our guys fought hard, but the blocked punt to start the second half hurt. Then we had a couple of injuries and just couldn't stop their offense," said ECCHS coach Travis Skrzypek.
"Brockway is a good football team. We played with them the first half but we couldn't catch up in the second half. All-in-all, we fought hard. Now we have to get healthy and get back at it with a short week for Curwensville next Friday," added Skrzypek.
The Crusader offense was led by Ricky Pearsall with 114 yards on 20 carries. Quarterback Kyle Schneider was six of 13 for 70 yards. Tyler Herzing caught four passes for 50 yards to lead the receiving corps.
Brockway was led by Buganza's passing. He was 21 of 29 for 268 yards and an interception by Elk's Brock McCullough. Mike Vervoort led the rushing game for the Rovers with 85 yards on 16 carries. He also scored all five of Brockway's touchdowns, four on the ground and one in the air.
Elk Catholic won the coin toss and deferred to the second half. The Rovers took the opening kickoff and marched 84 yards in nine plays, with Buganza connecting with Vervoort on a 20-yard pass play, giving Brockway the 7-0 lead as Phil Esposito added the PAT with 8:09 left in the first period.
Elk Catholic drove from their own 25 to the Brockway 39 before they were forced to punt. Dave Bojalad's punt was downed at the four-yard line of the Rovers. Brockway's drive was halted by an interception by McCullough on Brockway's 30 down to the 11. Pearsall picked up a yard on first down and one on second down as the teams traveled to the other end of the field and the first quarter ended. Pearsall gained two yards to the seven, bringing up fourth down and goal. On fourth down, Schneider found Herzing in the back right corner of the endzone for the touchdown as Herzing came down with one foot in-bounds, making the score 7-6. Bojalad added the PAT, tying the game at 7-all with 11:12 left in the first half.
Brockway responded with an 80-yard drive. Five passing plays moved it to the ECC 11. On first down, Vervoort scored from 11 yards out, making it 14-7 as Esposito added the PAT with 8:18 left in the first half.
The Crusaders started on their own 27 following the kickoff. Pearsall got three to the 30. Schneider to Herzing netted 32 more to the Brockway 38-yard line. Schneider found Bojalad for a 14-yard completion to the 24. Pearsall gained four to the 20 on first down. Cole Gerber gained a yard to the 19. On third and five, Pearsall scored from 19 yards out as Elk tied the game at 14 with five minutes left in the first half.
Brockway started on their own 33 after the kickoff. They moved to the Elk 49, where they fumbled and ECC's Scott Krellner recovered, ending the drive.
The teams traded punts as the first half ended tied at 14.
On Elk's first possession, they were forced to punt. The punt only traveled four yards as the Rovers got a piece of it. Four plays later, Vervoort scored from four yards out to give the Rovers the 21-14 lead with 9:52 left in the third period.
Elk was forced to punt on their next possession. Brockway took over on their own 20 after the kickoff went into the endzone. Brockway scored 16 plays later, as Vervoort scored from four yards out to make it 28-14 with 1:04 left in the third period.
The Crusaders were forced to punt on their next possession, which was halted at their own 39. Bojalad's punt was downed at the Brockway 21-yard line. It took the Rovers 13 plays to travel the 79 yards, with Vervoort adding his fifth touchdown of the night from five yards out, making the score 35-14 with 3:47 left in the game.
Elk punted on their next possession, with the Rovers taking over at their own 35. Buganza took a knee twice as time ran out with the Rovers on top 35-14.
Game notes
The Crusaders are now 6-1 on the year and 6-1 in the AML.
Saturday night was Senior Night for Elk Catholic as senior players, cheerleaders and band members, along with their parents, were recognized in pre-game ceremonies.
The Crusaders will travel to Curwensville on Friday night to take on the Golden Tide in another key AML South Division contest.
