420! I hope my vote doesn`t affect the 4.20 rating but I have to give this a 5. Lupe obviously put some heart into this one. No label bullshit.
B.o.B's version is better.

Just getting started clothes and music dropped SUMMwe 2011, wheres the SUPPORT.... lets goo. firstname.lastname@example.com// facebook. twitter..blog. support is what we need the most. two yougins trynna do it big. gonna do it big, workin hard to get on top and stay there! ;).....
Pardon me but thanks man. Hayley I'll see in about 4 years.
Umm... Next time make sense bud. You aren`t writing a personable letter to Lupe, he probably won`t see that shit... And if he does, I doubt that will make sense to even him
Damn, could you imagine how quickly LASERS would've been released and how better it would've been if they didn't give this to B.O.B.?
Lyrically phenomenal, absolutely brilliant, Lupe is seriously a legend, why can't all hip/hop be like this?
this is the orginal and much more better B.O.B is overrated
much respect lu, another lyrical masterpiece, the fact he gave this to bob is irrelevant, just shows how much respect he has for other artist. props lu
Lupe you're an idiot for turning this record down and letting them give it to BOB you killed it way better than him. I can actually tolerate this version. This version is lyrically and conceptually better.
Lupe didn't turn down this song, he did this song and the original version of "Nothing on You". The executives of Atlantic records are to blame for both songs being handed over to B.O.B. Lupe Fiasco has had many problems with Atlantic records this being one of the many, they don't want him being so deep and want him to dumb down his lyrics.
Big fan of Lupe, but wasn't ever really a big fan of Airplanes.
Lupe > B.o.B. Period. Hell, It took Em for me to even tolerate the B.o.B. version
As someone who really dug B.o.B's version, I gotta say lyrically, and conceptually I find Lupe's superior. The only difference is B.o.B added so much enthusiasm when he spit his lines while Lupe was more chill. Definitely adding both to my mp3
This was way better than B.O.B., don't get me wrong I like his too, especially with Em. But you really gotta listen to what he says in this, he touches some deep subjects especially in verse 2 "My departure from the norm, the parch thats more warm wars torn from the marching of your armies and the dropping of your bombs" plus it's all worded so well, I think Eminem needs to drop verses with Lupe it'd be an amazing collaboration.
B.o.b isnt even close to lupe on this track, B.o.b is garbage ....... If you dont like the song dont listen to it or comment?Lupes a living ledgend
IF U LOVE REAL HIP-HOP OR JUST GOOD MUSIC IN GENERAL; FOLLOW THIS LINK. IT MAY CHANGE YOUR LIFE. - DELMAR JONES http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fn4g8OIEck
These are the type of tracks I love from Lupe, anticipating that Food & Liquor 2!
its a shame lupe is a pop star now like britney spears
Why do you consider him gone "pop"? I think we need to draw a line here. Sure, he may get media attention and get the most mainstream beats in the market, but I think that's the goal artists strive for anyway: to be HEARD. To be released out to the masses because their music is GREAT. Unfortunately, you get some untalented artists that somehow WEASEL their way into the market..
No the fuck hes not. He releases one very mediocre album due mainly because of his record label and everyone starts trashing on Lupe. And watch the same people turn back around when Food and liquor 2 drops and act like they were always down. smh.
he's not a god damn pop star, you mainstream haters take everything too up front, dawm.. Lasers was popish but it's just a phase, F&L II is gonna be pure street beats, straight from his mouth
BoB is way better over this track...Lupe is alright...i think people just pumpin him up for most shit
BoB was better, he had the energy for the track. I'd pick Lupe over all the things, but some tracks aren't meant for some Artists. Lupe Fiasco can make good tracks and BoB as well depending on the style of the track. Both are good at their own things!
BoB's record is way better
This is fiyah. The only thing lupe aint do was really connect his verses to the hook. Thats what BoB did very well. I like both songs for different reasons. soundclick.com/showtimeny Best Unsigned rapper period.
part 2 with em is better imo
not really good, i dont understand how people take this over pt 2 with em in it
your an idiot, you just don't understand complex lyrics from a lyricist, figure out and decipher his lyrics it really connects to the hook
Lupe can't make hit songs
listen to tech n9ne bitch
lol the fxck he AINT tryna make a hit song ...damm listen too the track he speak that real shxt something u dont know bout huh -.-
This is real. This is Lupe
...um lemme first say, B.o.B.'s 2 versions of this song are dope as fuck. Best example that pop rap doesn't have to completely suck (like so to say, Drake). Lupe's first 2 albums are undoubtable classics, but clearly he didn't give it his all on this track and B.o.B. had a much clearer vision and execution of a concept. but most importantly, i don't think most people realize this hit hook and beat structure was written by a nerdy, white fratboy emcee & producer duo from cornell university. here's the best version, the ORIGINAL version of Airplanes from Kinetics & One Love: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BstW1B4yk8s
I prefer this over both pt.1 and 2. No disrepect to BOB or Em but this is crazy
my version! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-4EshJsc94
i think i like this better
Why would you do a song that someone else already did already, especially in hip hop?
this song was originally made for lupe just like nothin on you
Neither one
Ight i see you lupe
Lupe killed it still it's missing something that B.o.B's version had. I would have liked to hear them collaborate on this song.
damn the laser delays http://www.reverbnation.com/thereckincrew
Lupe is Picasso with words. this song just brings certain feelings. and that's rare now a days.
BOBs version is much better
Lope did his thing but b.o.b.'s versiiopn is better though still a nice track
Dope. Lupe killed this.
Lupe nails it.
1 star. Lupe is so wack. How can anyone like this lame nerd? He ruins every great beat he's on. His version is absolutely garbage compared to B.o.B.'s hit version
Your dumb and odnt belong to judge is it cuz he too intelligent for you?
Why you people act like that?? First of all, Lupe didn't want this song, that's why B.O.B. got it... and yes, Lupe is a better rapper, and B.O.B. isn't even a rapper, he's a pop artist, and his version is way better to me because he put more passion in it, Lupe sounds like somebody forced him to do this, I'm not saying about the lyrics though.
Lupe was trying to prelude this with Heirplanes on Japanese Cartoon... damn Atlantic fucked his whole career over in one track... he couldnt even get a feature.
both bobs hits were Lupes orginally Lupes... Lupe sounds like Food and Liquor here... this is way better than BOB
B.o.B's version was dope...woulda been nice to have had Lupe on it initially but thats what happens when your dealing with blood drinking record labels.
Lupe > B.o.B
Wow I thought Bob wrote this song hook and everything guess Bob is nothing special just another below average rapper
B.O.B. wrote his parts, Lupe didn't want this song so B.O.B. eventually got the hook and the beat to do his own song.. And B.O.B. isn't a rapper, nor it's his album a rap album...he's a decent pop artist.
Lupe should of had this song. He did it better
Lupe's is better in my opinion he's a better rapper his seems more heart felt it goes wit Lupe's style
/watch?v=zmH5OlMJpEc B.O.B - Airplanes Ft Lupe, Emine, Royce Remix
Yea, I liked B.o.B's version better, though Lupe still had good lyrics
yep. LUPE murdered it.. as usual what else did u expect?
Dam looks like Atlantic took another joint from Lupe and gave it to B.o.B
Lupe's good, BoB killed it
Yo "Lupe Fiasco" should've did this Track!!! Him and "Em" would Murk this shit. "Lupe" is a MUCH BETTER Rapper than "B.O.B". "B.O.B." ain't shit and this Song really didn't catch Hype until "Em" was on it. C'mon "Em" get in the Booth with "Lupe" and make some iLL Shit! (lol)
Both are great. But I appreciate lyrics, so I'll take Lupe's version.
Eminems version is hands down, THE best! but this isnt bad, couldve seen a megamiz or something... but Ems version blows all of the verses/versions out the water
I don't listen to B.O.B. as much as i should so i won't compare the two versions but Lupe does his deep lyrical thing on this. We know how Atlantic is though, get that now money aka Billboard top 10 500k-1mill single sales hit money not the sell 200k first week money which just that alone might have put more money in the label and Lupe's pockets. Times have changed but established fanbase from previous albums/shows still > any marketing
lyrically this version is hot...but as a radio friendly version B.O.B.'s version is on point
personally, this song is just straight up dope. i didnt feel anything when i listened to b.o.b.'s version (being played by every fucking girl everywhere) not to dis b.o.b. cause the cats doing his thing and i dig his shit, but i mean god damn lupe blows everyone out of the water his skills are so unbelievably fine tuned and his ability to paint with the pen is unlike anyone else. this version is extremely underated, not a suprise in todays musical environment.
damn, nicely put
I havent heard BoBs version but I like this
even caves get intermittent radio reception HAHAHA
hahahahahahahahaahahahaha rofl my waffle
You havnt Heard B.O.B's version, where do you live, in a fucking cave?
you can tell that originally this was lupe's song just from the way the song stars. they're sitting on the hood of the car lookin up at the stars. making wishes out of airplanes it goes w/ the chorus. thst's the greatest thing about lupe's work. everything flows together so well and it's all interconnected. it's simply ART
when i listen to lupe on this record, i can just lose myself and for me this is what this song is supposed to sound like, B.O.B version was a little clubby party joint but i really felt the emotion and feel of Lupes version better
In my opinion, These are two Different artists. Dif. Styles. Diff perspectives on the beat and different morals all together. The Flows from Both are TIGHT. So Good,The mellow but snappy flow of lupe. And The Melodical,Hyped up,Rhythmic flow of BOB. I think comparing artists is really hard. Unless one Just obviously sucks. But the Bob version was a Hit if your playing it in clubs/radio/etc. The lupe Version was a blunt smokin,Hip-hop Jam.
Next version, Odd Future ft. Hayley Williams - Airplanes
Pfft, this ain't even close. Lupe all the way.
All you BOB haters fall back...This Lupe Version is good- as an album cut...The BOB version is more up tempo and is more a radio ready hit, but not all that lyrically different. BOB is a dope MC, but just like Lupe the Atlantic machine got to him and altered his native. FUCK ATLANTIC RECORDS!!! People boycott this site!!! How many dope MC's albums have they either shelved or watered down? From Twista, to putting out Little Brother's Minstrel show with ZERO promotion or A&R support on the EXACT SAME DAY Atlantic also dropped Paul Wall's album! What label puts two artists out the same day in the same damn genre? Then of course they benched Apathy for 3 years and no albums, just like the shelved Saigon's borderline Classic before dropping him without relasing shit. Now listen to how crappy Wiz Khalifa's album is vs Kush and OJ - Join me in boycotting Atlantic Records - they are singlehandled killing and watering down hip hop into TRL/106 and park teen pop hell!!
Lupe is a better lyricist theres no arguing that. It sounded like he had a different take on the song. Lupe's version is very poetic, deep, and somber, while B.o.b had more energy and was more up beat. Lupe's version would sound great at some library or some political rally, while B.o.B's version would be great at some party or club(white people's club.) I may be bias but I prefer Lupe. Both versions were good.
B.o.B's version was better, don't know why it gets so much hate. Lupe was spitting though for sure.
lupe is gr8 n did his thing lyrically, but B.O.B. gave the song that wow factor with his style.
yeah, me either. i think airplanes is a great song. all three versions
different !!!!!
Never did like Airplanes because of the beat, still like Lupe though, wish Lasers had more of All Black Everything
That's the best cut on there I think
damn this makes you realize how much atlantic was able to influence Bob's album as well. Bob's definitely had more energy and something everyone could relate to, Lu's obviously has the better lyrics though lol
the most retarded rapper i have ever heard is won dough.. he sounds autistic,retarded,add,drunk..and listened to too much odb.. i saw this chemical ali on the other site..and realised its won dough.. what a fckn joke..lmfao....i dare you to do a show
Im not a fan of either song but Bob's version had waaaay more energy.
Dope song
didn't care for B.o.B's version all that much but Lupe actually made me like this and appreciate the beat more. still dont care for the hook though. just to bubblegum for me. Dope Lupe!
This is a 5 without even listening to it
This song is dope. Eminem and Lupe should both drop verses to this song. It would make it so much better. But, B.o.B. did his thing on this beat. But I would much rather listen to Lupe's version.
$WonDough$ be smoking airplanes
b.o.b had more energy on this song thats why i like the other version better. but Lupe still went hard...
This is sick! But I'll always love eminems verse on the remix. Reminded me of the raw old Em that I missed
I personally prefer lupe i think hes an all around better rapper but he should work on his hooks like on LASERS i didnt reslly like hooks but all verses were awsome
this is straight, but honestly any rapper who is decent at his craft could murk this beat. i mean this a hit put right in your lap. my opinion though BOB did a lot better with this track. i will admit thought, the minute i heard "nothin on you" i immediatly thought of lupe fiasco. not the same with airplanes though atlantic is a business and they def made the right decision for their label and for fiasco
LASERS wasn't so bad imo. Lyrics was great. just the sound was lil poppy I think, that's why so many dissapointments. Choosing this way Lupe wanted to be heard by masses. but it's still great to me. *fuck the beat, listen to the words of the damn song* (DMX)
You've got to be kidding me. If anything there are more talented artists in the game, than there ever have been. Most are up and comers, who release their shit for free just to get there name out. Therefore, if you're slipping, you better step your game up, or you'll be irrelevant at the blink of an eye. Everyone knows Lupe can spit, dude just made an awful album.
why is it not ok to admit that album was trash? why are you fans in such denial. It's really sad. you fucking Lupe or what? there is no way you listened to Lasers and came away thinking it was a good album. come on man. be real. thats all i'm saying. I love Lupe. I'm just not his dick rider and I refuse to lie to myself and say the album was dope when its not! That REKS album goes hard by the way you guys!!!!! Mr. Nobody is dope as fuck!
I'm sick of women singing on rap songs, sick of rock hooks on rap songs, sick of the rap version of R&B...
Cosign. That's how Hip-Hop was creating taking drum breaks from Rock music and Blues melody sammples. You can hear every single from of music in Hip-Hop dummy. Its people like you who make Hip-Hop music wack by wanting the samething over and over. I find it kind of hard to listen to hiphop and not like the sounds of other music lol IMO
Totally agree but some genres just dont go to together,jazz and hip hop are nice, but i just miss that good ol lyricism, now a days it not as important for rappers i guess, not rappin as intellegent as thay used to
hip-hop has had rock infused in it since the very beginning. Like Maverik said, hip-hop's infused with all kinds of genres and always will be.
Cosign Maverik! Hip Hop has always been about the mixing or crossing of genres, so why not keep pushing it further. I may not like some of what comes out of it but at the same time, if we all kept to the same formula music would become very boring very quickly
Then stop listening to hip hop.. cause hip hop is being innovative, and mixing all types of genres you FUCKING fool. Go listen to Lil B.
I think people are still upset about LASERS. that shit was so wack that people are turned off to Lupe I think. I am a huge Lupe fan. LASERS was absolute garbage. It seems like I'm the only Lupe fan who isn't blind to that fact. This track is dope though. reminds me of why Lupe was my favorite MC. This is the Lupe I want to hear all the time. Not that techno bullshit he had on LASERS.
give it up..
the album had one highlight in All Black Everything though
You're not the only fan that feels that way... http://www.dmvixen.com/news/album-review-lasers-josiah_perez/
I like B.O.B's version it's cool but Lupe's is better for sure. So now we got a total of 4 dope tracks that should of been on "Lasers". Wack Record Label could of given us 16 bangers instead of just 12. Even tho he forget the lyrics to my favorite Hip Hop group A Tribe Called Quest on Stage I still got props for him. Keep doin your thing Lupe you're one of the new School cats that I listen to and rate.
im feeling this
lyrically lupe murdered this shit. but its a reference track... ANYWHO, CHECK ME OUT. I PROMISE GREAT MUSIC. IR'S A PROMISE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdylMPXtisY
Fuck all the haters. B.o.B did his thing on the track, but the song was for Lupe who did a good job 2 if not better. Lupe + Em would have killed the pa LASERS!
eminem and B.o.B. for keeps, they go so much harder
fuck lupe
how is anyone complaining about this? it's so much better then b.o.b.'s version...I agree though the hook is so annoying...someone needs to edit this...erase the hook...and ad eminem's verse on the end...someone do it!!!!
You people need to leave Lupe the fuck alone HE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MC WHO have ever blessed the MIC. Live with it or GO FUCK YOURSELF
Like Lupe Fiasco so much better than those B.O.B. corny Lyrics
It sucks, Lupe hasn't B.o.B's voice and energy on Airplanes.
Oh, give me a break. Yes, Lupe Fiasco has made better songs and albums than B.o.B, and is a better overall artist. But Lupe's "Nothin' On You" and Lupe's "Airplanes" suck, and are a lot worse than B.o.B's versions. How is Lupe even better lyrically than B.o.B. on these two songs? He sounds bored as hell, and doesn't have one good line. It's the definition of phoning it in. Just because Lupe is a better lyricist than B.o.B. OVERALL, doesn't mean EVERYTHING he does is better than B.o.B. It's easy to see why the label rejected this. Mediocre at best.
@ Idiot / Some Idiots Where is the source for this information? And what artist is this a "reference track" for? On every reference track I've heard, it's painfully obvious who the track is for. You can't just make up sh-t, with no source, and try to cover your ass by pretending you're in the industry. Lupe Fiasco is rapping like Lupe Fiasco on this track. And he's doing a shitty job. You can't say he did a shitty job on purpose, b/c it was supposed to be for a mysterious "other rapper." And yes, the label DID reject Lupe's two songs. That is why they were given to B.o.B. Literally every reputable music website has confirmed this, and reported it as news. But I guess you know the REAL truth, huh? Give me a break. Weirdo. People who pretend to be in the music industry shouldn't be talking. They should be killing themselves.
^ well then stfu
Im not in the music industry, but i can tell you this version sucks regardless
the label didn't reject these last 2 songs...they are reference tracks...you can tell by Lupe's energy and tone that these weren't being recorded to be released....he was recording reference lyrics...people who don't understand how recording/the industry works should not be talking
the lyrics may have been better but B.O.B delivery was way better. thats why B.OB's version sold
Vanilla lights shining bright krayzie bone drop a solo album I would buy it 4sho
Vanilla ligts by krayzie bone im feeling that shit on youtube its just a snippet tho where is the complete song
better than bob's original? yeah. better than bob's remix? hard to say.
Yea I love vanilla lights by krayzie bone I like that a new life video by Layzie bone 2
Vanilla light by krayzie bone def sounds like it could be classic need to hear the whole song
I likey.
lupe spits to lazy on it, thats why the label passes it to B.o.B. Lupe doesnt come powerfull enough with his delivery on this track, so it wouldnt be picked up by the audience.
KRAYZIE BONE vanilla lights snippet on youtube
KRAYZIE BONR vanilla lights listen to the snippet on youtube
That krayzie bone song is called vanilla lighs def was banging classic bone shit
Krayzie bone vanilla sky snippet on youtube banging off his upcoming album Chasing the Devil
I like Lupe's better.. However, the only criticism I have about both versions of this song is I HATE the hook.. It's retarded as fuck and the girl's voice is annoying.. Seriously, the hook is what kept me from listening to B.O.B.'s version.. 4 stars
i wish this version got leaked first. lupe killed it, but i can't jam it kuz the hooks so played out.
Youtube krayzie bone vanilla sky snippet and I love my haters classic material still around krayzie one of the best
This one shits on B.O.B's....Lupe's Lyrics are on point. But I still Don't really like either track because of Hannah Montana but I guess everyone's trying to get on Radio Disney nowadayZ. Free Lupe!! Release The Real Lasers!
Im not sure if you're serious but in case you are thats not hannah montanna..her name is hayley williams and she is(possibly was may have broken up) the lead singer of paramore
Lasers just got one track longer. This one goes right after Stereo Sun.
Lupe didn't pass on it... his label rejected it from him. Weird. Especially since obviously Lupe is a better rapper than B.o.B. And it's further proof that B.o.B. sucks. I mean, he also jacked "Nothin' on You" from Lupe (thanks to the label again). I think I could have had a hit w/ both songs. And I suck.
Lupe did his
unreleased 50 Cent/Game DC love Thing. 1 Click play. http://www.zshare.net/audio/887336583c6cb06b/
Lupe is nice, deep track kinda curious as to why he passed on this track
The label probably passed on it like with nothing on you
unreleased 50 Cent/Game DC love Thing. Enjoy http://www.mediafire.com/?4mrggbtxo6f2ss0
Lasers was not a pop album is was made a little more Radio Friendly like Recovery is for Eminem, i Will say that Lasers is 10x better than Recovery, but neither are pop. People need to stop saying Lupe and B.o.B are pop because there far from it, there now mainstream artists, but that doesn't make them pop, its like saying if Raekwon or Nas got a new hit record on the radio that it automatically is pop. The Adventures of Bobby Ray was a classic in my opinion, B.o.B has a lot of talent in singing, rapping, guitar, drums, and piano. The only song on the album that sounded pop to me was Nothing on You, the rest were all deep emotionally creative songs, like Ghost in the Machine and Don't Let Me Fall, which neither were pop, Airplanes was not pop, people just like to say that because Halie Williams from Paramore sung the hook, which its a good hook by the way. She has a lot of talent and can sing really well, but just because its a female singer on a rap record, it becomes pop to you people. stop, Lupe and B.o.B are real Hip Hop.
very true shit. b.o.b. and lupe are both ARTISTS which means they are not pop. but number 1 recovery was better than lasers and number 2 this lupes version is better than b.o.b.'s
lasers was good, but homie ya nuts if you think lasers was 10 times better than recovery. recovery a much more solid and better all around album.
This song sounds like it belongs on the cool tbh i feel its better than the original
What? Have you even listened to the Cool? This sounds nothing like it...sounds like a Lasers track all the way. Anyway sounds good, better than most of the stuff that made it on the album. But I don't know I just associate this beat with the fucking pop hit so it turns me off automatically.
I wish Lupe blew up off this one. but b.o.b is way more ear friendly to 10 year old girls. Alex da Kid and Skylar Grey win in the end.
I love B.O.B......but man I wish this would have been on Lasers with the Em feature...
Lupe did his thing as always. This version is very good, so is B.o.B's version. They are both different so comparing them isn't necessary.
Too pop for Lupe so he passed......
acid da savage --jay z 50 cent joe buddens diss---http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09MCHnAKH7c
Here's my theory behind this: 1. LASERS was going to have this song or Words I Never Said. I think it was either or. Both were produced by the same guy. Personally, Words I Never Said was slightly better for Lupe, in my opinion. B.o.B. killed Airplanes. Thus, it was good that this was not released
should Of just had lupe BOB & eminem and have that as the original
3 stars
lupe > bob
Its interesting to see the difference in Lupe's approach to B.o.B's. Had it remained with lupe, it definitely wouldn't have been the hit it became. Same beat and hook, two vastly different outcomes. This version brings a lot more depth to the song but it does not have the same punch B.O.B's version has.
this is a lot deeper then B O Bs version but I still like them both
meant to say he didnt like the album*
Lupe's a bum
Woah phil! Gay picture alert! I can't be takin a nigga wit a nutsack licking picture like that seriously.
yet youre listening to his shit....makes sense....not
Lupe....enough said
Lyrically, this pretty much kills anything on Lasers...
now i see why they took the track away from him, I love this a lot better, but B.O.B did his thing...the record label did not want to put this out cause they thought it would not sell, but i think it would have done damn good.
Always had a feeling this might have been meant for Lupe. Guess it was just down to Atlantic to decide which one of their artists they wanted to destroy first.
Lasers WAS like this. Dumbass.
the production was horrific.. He def dumbed it down some but I still heard fiya lyrics
1. The beats for the most part were awful...pop/club beats that dont fit his style 2. Lyrically was the worst ive seen from lupe on an album 3 The fact that he did like this album believes me to think he didnt put in the extra work to make it great jus my opinions...only song I feel is on par with his 1st album is All black everything
the beats were great idk what the fuck the guy above me is saying the depth of his lyrics were completely dumbed down
Fuk you talking about? The beats on lasers were horrendous. The lyrics were also the problem, but do not sit here and try to defend those beats
No it wasn't the beats in lasers were not the problem it was the lyrical depth.
to bad lasers could not be like this

I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Spinofix (Irvine, CA) in May 2012.
The first interview was based on my resume. They asked a lot of questions about my senior design project and mechanical engineering education since I didn't have any prior experience. It was about a 45 minute interview. The second and final one was to get to know the other interns. In the end, there was a brief Solidworks quiz to test how much you knew.

The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Spinofix in January 2011.
Pretty easy and fast process. After submitting my resume i received a call back for an interview. The interview was very relaxed and laid back and no unexpected questions were asked. It's a start up with potential and they offered me a position a few days later.

Anthony Bray, MD is online now
I have been suffering from prostatitis for about 3 years now.
Resolved Question:
I have been suffering from prostatitis for about 3 years now. I am on my third Urologist and all he does is prescribe antibiotics. Tomorrow will be my third visit to him and he has not ran any tests (PSA, Semen Culture, Blood) to date. The antibiotics are doing nothing for me!!! Is it possible for it to be a fungal infection versus a bacterial one? If so How can he accurately prescribe antibiotics without finding out what is causing the infection first?

Anthony Bray, MD :
Anthony Bray, MD :
BTW, the expert you requested must not be available right now-- I will offer advise if that is OK... If you wish I can opt out... Just let me know ...
Anthony Bray, MD :
I agree with you that you should have a culture of urine and semen and testing of the urethra for gonorrhea and chlamydia...
Anthony Bray, MD :
The cultures would be expected to demonstrate what bacteria is present and what options may be helpful for treatment...
Anthony Bray, MD :
It is common to treat a prostate infection for 30 days up to 6 weeks with follow up after that...
Anthony Bray, MD :
The empiric treatment with Cipro and now Septra ( treatment based on type and location of infection but not culture)
Anthony Bray, MD :
These antibiotics would be very typically prescribed...
Anthony Bray, MD :
Again at this point with the treatment failure I agree that you should have cultures done.
Anthony Bray, MD :
It would be worthwhile to ask your doctor about knowing that you have not developed an abscess of the prostate... An imaging study may be helpful in this regard...
Anthony Bray, MD :
A fungal infection of the prostate would be very rare .... Conditions in which your immune system was compromised could be a reason for this to occur but if you have healthy immune system then it would be rare indeed...
Anthony Bray, MD :
certain viral infection such as HSV2 may have some potential....
Anthony Bray, MD :
If this persists beyond sux months then it would be more classified as chronic prostatitis... And 10 to 15% of such cases show no growth on cultures ( so no pathogen identified) this last stubborn scenario will hopefully not be the end result in your case...
Anthony Bray, MD :
I hope that this information helps. I hope that this round of antibiotic helps to bring you to cure. I would advise that you make enough noise to get perhaps the most recent urologist or one of your doctors to obtain cultures to help identify the pathogen. I think this would be most important step for you at this time....'
I have had past problems with reoccurring yeast infwction from my wife and do think I hav
Anthony Bray, MD :
I hope that this helps. Let me know if you have further questions. I will be happy to get back with you. Thank you and best regards,
Anthony Bray, MD :
Anthony Bray MD
Anthony Bray, MD :
Hello again... It is a reasonable thought... If you have had history of fungal infections then this would be possible... Still very uncommon ....
Anthony Bray, MD :
you are right that it would be a possible explanation for treatment failure as neither Cipro nor Septra would help with fungal infection...
Anthony Bray, MD :
The prostate once infected is a difficult area to treat due to the presence of fairly stagnant fluids and relatively poor blood supply...
Anthony Bray, MD :
Let me know if you have further questions or points of discussion and I will be happy to get back with you!
Anthony Bray, MD :
If my answers have been helpful and to your satisfaction them please remember to leave positive feedback . Thank you, XXXXX XXXXX!

The Santa Barbara Wine Auction benefiting Direct Relief will be held at the exclusive Bacara Resort & Spa on Saturday, March 12, 2016. It will be an evening of fine wines, delectable foods, and an auction with lifestyle experiences and rare library wine lots.
The Santa Barbara Wine Auction was established in 2000 with the vision of ensuring that people in need across the U.S. and world have access to life-saving medical aid. The founders of the event, the Santa Barbara Vintners' Foundation, created this biennial wine auction to champion Direct Relief's mission: Improving the health and lives of people affected by poverty or emergency situations by mobilizing and providing essential medical resources needed for their care.
Since inception the Santa Barbara Wine Auctions have raised over $3 million, which has been leveraged into almost $100 million in medical aid to equip frontline health workers, free clinics, and other health centers with medical supplies and equipment to treat the world's most vulnerable people.
The Santa Barbara Vintners' Foundation and Direct Relief have raised funds which are used to pioneer innovative medical assistance initiatives, many of which never would have been possible without the money raised through the benefit auction. These include expanding access to vital treatment for children with pneumonia; equipping local Medical Reserve Corps volunteers with emergency preparedness supplies; and laying the groundwork for what is now the largest charitable medicines program for vulnerable people in the U.S.
Direct Relief USA is an important part of the organization's efforts to strengthen America's healthcare safety net by providing nonprofit community clinics and health centers with medicines and medical supplies for their low-income and uninsured patients.
With support from Direct Relief, aid organization Last Mile Health (known in Liberia as Tiyatien Health) trained 10 Frontline Health Workers (FHW) in the last year to identify, treat, and refer children with symptoms of pneumonia – the number one cause of death of children under five worldwide.
Direct Relief USA provides Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) volunteers with ruggedized, specially designed backpacks filled with medical supplies to help address community health needs in an emergency. The packs enable MRC members to respond when disaster strikes.
Direct Relief has equipped midwives, supported programs of obstetric fistula repair, increased access to cervical cancer screening, and has provided general medical aid in support of children's health programs.

I started in the kitchen when I was very young, and I am still as intrigued with the process as I was when I was a 15-year-old Garde Manger in a small French restaurant in my hometown.
In 1991 at the age of 22 I was given the opportunity of a lifetime – help design an upscale seafood restaurant in San Francisco from scratch – and I threw myself into the project heart and soul. It became AQUA and opened to rave reviews in a town known for great cuisine.
Now here it is, 20+ years and many restaurants later. I reimagined AQUA and completely restored it to create Michael Mina. Since then, I've opened more than 20 destination restaurants, hired world-class executive chefs and the best teams you can find. With their help, I am honored to say, my restaurants have achieved a success that has put the Mina Group ahead of its class.
You could say that the key ingredient to this accomplishment is an unwavering passion for food combined with a commitment to phenomenal service for our guests.
My philosophy on cooking is my philosophy on life: create balance and harmony. In the end, it is all about creating lasting relationships. I hope to meet and cook for you one day soon.
I love bold flavors in food. I love balanced food and I love food that keeps me excited throughout the entire course.
My job as a Chef, and my team's job, is to make food come alive. We strive to create incredible meals each and every day that make our guests sit up, take notice, experience delight and wonder, "Exactly what was in that dish?"
We accomplish this through a balance of flavors: acidity, sweetness, spice and fat. These are the four key ingredients that should be present in any dish. Does it have enough acid? Enough spice? If you don't use all four, that's okay, but whichever ones are used must create a balance so that your food screams bold.
If you don't have a lemon, replace it with another acid. If you don't have molasses, try honey. And if you run out of butter, perhaps use an avocado. Stick to the main ingredients, don't be afraid to play around – and keep the balance.
DawnMarie Kotsonis, originally from Brooklyn, NY, but now calls Southern California home. DawnMarie's introduction to fundraising began in the 1980's while running a successful commercial auction firm and with a very personal experience of raising funds in support of Cystic Fibrosis – the disease that claimed the lives of both her nephew and her best friend.
With nearly 30 years of auction and fund development experience, DawnMarie has presided over countless record-breaking auctions including Wine Spectator Top-10 charity events. DawnMarie's high energy and fun approach to an auction makes her equal part entertainer and fundraiser. She feels that the key to a successful benefit auction is "To make it fast, make it fun and leave everyone feeling great for having raised a lot of money for a great cause!"
DawnMarie was the auctioneer at the 2014 Santa Barbara Wine Auction, and is excited to participate again in the 2016 auction in support of the amazing work done throughout the world by Direct Relief. A true believer in the mantra "no margin … no mission," DawnMarie applauds Direct Relief's incredible success in turning every dollar raised into approximately a $35 return on their supporter's contributions.

The amenities were also wonderful, with ping pong and games, indoor pool, and gym at the rec center, as well as a large rec area outside. We also enjoyed the skiing and tubing that was on-site.

We have winners! Free entry to F1 star Mark Webber's sportive this weekend + signed jersey
Red Bull driver's sportive takes in Northants and Buckinghamshire
Well, it's Friday afternoon, Tiffin has been taken, and we've managed to tear our eyes away from Holland vs Brazil, Murray vs Nadal and of course the Tour de France build-up to set the random number generator to work, and we've found two lucky winners for Mark Webber's Ride to the Horns Schwag.
So without much further ado, it's Nellybuck who gets the jersey and the free entry to the ride, while Jonathan Wyatt misses out on the jersey, but also gets free entry to the sportive - we hope you both have a great day, and look out for an email winging its way towards you from road.cc very shortly.
This weekend sees Red Bull Formula 1 star Mark Webber, who walked away unscathed from a 190mph crash at the European Grand Prix in Valencia, swap four wheels for two as he hosts his annual Ride To The Horns sportive in Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire – and we have two entries up or grabs, as well as a jersey signed by the Aussie motor racing ace himself.
The 93-mile ride takes place this Sunday 4 July and starts and finishes at The Stag restaurant in the village of Mentmore near Leighton Buzzard, with riders departing between 8am and 8.30am. After a gentle start through a gated road that takes you onto a route initially reminiscent of Flanders, things get a bit bumpier later on with some pretty steep climbs including Brill, Whiteleaf, the Crong and Ivinghoe Beacon.
Webber himself will be there on Sunday to hopefully ride the full distance and will also be posing for pictures and signing ride jerseys and shorts at Mentmore Village hall, but thanks to organisers Wheels in Wheels, one lucky road.cc user will get a signed jersey plus free entry to the ride, which normally costs £30, while another will get the ride entry free.
Even if you don't win, it's still not too late to enter the Ride to the Horns, and full details of that, as well as the shorter, 50-mile Stag ride and a family-friendly, 7-mile ride are available on the event website, and there will also be a full programme of activities throughout the day on the village green at Mentmore to keep everyone entertained.
To enter, just make a comment in the thread below – normal road.cc rules apply so just one entry per person. We'll be making the draw tomorrow afternoon at around Tiffin time, so good luck!

It is quite a hilly route, the 2nd half does have some pretty testing climbs (for me at least..) - one of them features in the '100 best climbs' book recently released.
Webber is also due at the festival of speed this weekend so it'll be interesting to see how he does both events

Abu Dhabi bank sees growth in loan book; Lender last issued Swiss franc debt in January; Says may issue Islamic bond in 2011
March 14, 2011 3:41 by Reuters
First Gulf Bank, Abu Dhabi's second largest lender by market value may tap debt markets again this year and is mulling an Islamic bond sale, its chief executive said.
Andre Sayegh also said he expected the bank's loan book to increase to double digits in 2011 on growing demand for project financing in the United Arab Emirates.
The bank issued a five-year 200 million Swiss franc bond in January.
"We may enter into bilateral transactions or issue bonds under our EMTN programme or a sukuk," Sayegh said in response to emailed questions on whether the lender would issue debt this year.
He added the bank will target short and medium term borrowing but gave no further details.
Sayegh said the bank may issue paper in international currency and swap it back into dirhams to eliminate the exchange risk as it did in the Swiss franc issue.
First Gulf Bank's loans grew six percent in 2010. Most UAE banks saw their loans grow in single digits as lending tightened and funding costs increased.
"With the growth in the economy, it is anticipated that the demand for loans will increase. It could possibly be a double digit growth as the economy picks up momentum," he told Reuters in the email.
Deposits have outpaced loans in the last few months, helping build liquidity gradually and bringing down cost of funding, he said. (Reporting by Stanley Carvalho, Editing by Amran Abocar)

Kluski Kładzione is one of those comfort foods I remember from my childhood back in Poland, my mother would often make them to serve with mushroom or meat sauce or to add them to the soups.
- 3 cups plain flour
- 3 eggs
- ¾ cup milk
- 1½ tbs Vegeta (vegetable seasoning) or 2 tsp of sea salt
- Mix flour, eggs, milk and Vegeta or salt in a large mixing bowl using spoon. If dough is too hard to stir add a little bit more milk.
- Bring large, flat pot of water to boil.
- Using tablespoon place portions of the dough in the water.
- Cook for 10 – 15 minutes, remove from the pot with slotted spoon or drain in a colander.
Serves 4 – 5 people.
Serve with the soups, for instance: Rosol z Kury / Polish Chicken Soup or Garlicky Butternut Squash Soup.
You can also top the dumplings with sauces or serve as a side dish with poultry or meat.

Apple Maps: London Easter eggs show the London Halo, Olympics and Samsung advert
With iOS 6, Apple has launched Apple Maps, a replacement for Google's Map app. Packed with new features one of the key boasting points of the new Apple Maps is the new 3D mapping feature that lets you see London as you've never seen it before - well unless you've been in an aircraft on the way back from America at the right time, with clear skies.
We've been scanning the city to find a number of fun easter eggs to find yourself, here is what we've found so far.
The Olympic rings hidden in Tower Bridge
Before the Olympics LOCOG installed a set of Olympic rings on Tower Bridge to celebrate the London 2012 games. Before they were unveiled they were hidden - something you can see from above now in Apple Maps.
The Royal Family on Sea Containers House
For the Jubilee river pageant, a giant poster was erected on Sea Containers House to work as the perfect backdrop. Apple Maps has captured that so you can still enjoy it even if you can't get to Lodnon.
Big Ben's multiple times
Taking aerial photos clearly takes time. If you look at Big Ben all the times on the clock's four faces are different. So it is 4pm, 12:45pm, 12:15pm, or 3:30pm?
Olympic Stadium is still getting ready for the London 2012 Games
Remember the Opening Ceremony - tt was amazing, right? But when Apple's Flyover was going over it the stadium was still being built. In fact here you can see what Danny Boyle was trying to achieve with the Thames running through the stage. Oh yeah.
Beach Volleyball at Horse Guards Parade
Still being built.
The London Eye or should that be London Halo
Last time we looked the London Eye on the Thames had pods on it for visitors to stand in. According to Apple the London Eye looks more like the Halo from the mega Microsoft game Halo.
The Gherkin
Someone's left a window open at the top of the Gherkin
Samsung's advert in Piccadilly Circus
You can't see the Samsung Galaxy S3 in the advert, but it looks like Samsung's advertising has paid off on the big billboards of Piccadilly Circus. The name Samsung can be seen. Subliminal messaging or what?

RIGHT AWAY I have to ask: Ryan Seacrest, who the hell did your makeup tonight because you look like Ronald McDonald with that foot height of hair and pancake pale makeup. Second, holy crap, how awful was their group performance? Singing god knows what, the Top 13 prove that just because you slap kids (some) with talent together doesn't mean you necessarily have the making of an actual band or even a real performance. Their vocals and tones were all over the place and honestly the only two I didn't want to kill was Elise and Phil because their undeniable voices stood out as unique and poignant where the others got lost in the shuffle. What a terrible start.
As you can see, I'm no nonsense today. As Idol attempts to tell us we're in for a "real treat" as Boys are pitted vs. Girls only to have the judges ultimately decide who goes home, what we ACTUALLY are getting is Exec Producer (I know, I know, I won't leave him alone- but for good reason), Nigel Lythgoe saying "Hey America, we don't want you in charge anymore." It's ridiculous how silently they've passed off this massive change in the format of this show. American Idol is suppose to be about America's next Idol as chosen BY America. But, nope. With the rise of sites like "Vote for the Worst" et al., it's clear to see that the producers don't want to risk good TV performers going home (you know Nigel is even American… she doesn't even go to this school!). Please note that I did not say the BEST performers but rather the best TV performers. That's why people like Brielle and her pageant mom get to have more screen time than they ever ever deserve. But, that rant over: let's get to the night's results!
Click through to find out who goes home and read my review of the night
Auditions, Group Week and Boys vs. Girl all over, we're finally at what
Randy, Steven and Jennifer *cough*Executive Producer, Nigel Lythgoe*cough* have decided are the TOP 13 of thousands and thousands of contenders, and all I can say is that they better ba-ring it cause there's been more than just a few true talents knocked to the wayside these past weeks. Still, while many of my favourite pics have made it this far into the game (see Phil Phils, Erika, Elise and Skylar), there are MORE than enough WTFs entries still in this game (see DeAndre , Shannon and Jermaine) that prove Idol is not strictly talent but includes a dollop of pandering and commercialism to boot. Still, I have faith and I hope it all comes together tonight as the remaining boys and girls take on some pretty damn big names in the industry.
So, yes, Stevie Wonder has had many a hits (I actually have no clue, I'm sure as we watch tonight I'll come to realize that he's written way more than I ever knew) but the real attraction of tonight's episode is the girls as they take on the recently passed and nearly impossible to match Whitney Houston. Having recently re-watched "The Bodyguard", I'm well-aware of just how epic and huge the songs of Miss Houston are and these girls are gonna have their work cut out for them. Seeing it a bit as a double-edged sword as these covers are going to get them a ton of attention but also that there's SO much to live up to with Whitney's extremely recent death, I'm betting the ladies are either going to shine or crash and burn. As far as the boys are concerned, I only really care about my bf Phil and a bit Colton, unless the rest can start manning up their talent and prove they have the chops a lot of these women do. Well, enough rambling, let's get to the songs!
Click through to see the performances and read my review of the night!
Well, it was the fullest week of Idol we're gonna get this year: 6 hours of singing, screeching, tears and tragedy and what do we have to show for it? Well, a Top 13 for one, and a whole lotta kids that needed to go are GONE. Tonight's result show is the culmination of over two dozen final audition attempts by the Top 25 remaining boys and girls in the competition as they vie for America's attention during this pinnacle week where the chosen few get halved.
If you've been following my recaps this week you'll know that both myself and many of the readers have been incensed at the over-production of grand master exec producer Nigel Lythgoe, annoyed with spurious choreography and showboating, shocked by song doubling and utterly disappointed in the lack of effort and talent put forth by a group of singers titled "America's Best" by our trio of judges. FINE, yes, there were a few good ones: Phil Phils, Jessica, Erika and Elise (oh, how I've forsaken my gender), but overall the ridiculousness far outweighed the brilliance. But, never fear: Elimination Day is here!! I've been banking on America to heed my desperate call to cull of so much crap we've seen these past few days to what will hopefully be the TOP 13 this show has to offer. So, let's get to what happened on tonight's live episode!
It's a new day: a new, parred down group of boys and a new stage as the Idol contestants first perform in front of a live studio in Los Angeles; let's hot to hell they bring their A-Game. So far, those following my rants and very occasional raves about the progress of these kids have noticed a particularly negative and constantly underwhelmed sense of disappointment from the "talent" we've been offered. Particularly as we flush out the nitty gritty stuff like tone, range and song-choice (sorry, but at this stage every decision and mistake counts), I've been feeling the contestants have been given far too easy a ride by the oft too-kind judging panel. So, now it's America's turn to vote, and I hope I provide a voice to this game that at least one or two of you out there agree with! Today, I'm going to watch the performances with a totally open mind, as if I'd never seen them before, and judge them anew in an attempt to give each newly revamped contender a chance to win me over.
Our numbers this year are jacked to the Top 25 with the boys getting an extra singer as their gender alone take tonight take to the stage to prove themselves the best of the Top 13. Seacrest explains that of the Top 25 who will perform tonight and tomorrow night- the boys then girls respectively- only FIVE from each group will be chosen based on America's votes as well as THREE WILD CARDS to make the final TOP 13 come this Thursday. It's always a shock to lose so many singers so fast but hey, that just pumps the pressure to unprecedented levels this week and I demand somethin' pretty amazing from the boys this odd Tuesday. So, without further adieu…
I wasn't going to let a little trip to Australia stop me from sharing my top fashion picks at this year's Oscars. PS. How shocked are you that Meryl Streep won Best Actress? When the Oscar nominations were announced, I predicted that the Best Actress category was the one ripe for an upset. Guess I was right after all. Congrats to Queen Meryl, but I do feel badly for Viola who was the frontrunner. She was also fantastic in her role. Why couldn't there been a tie?
Typically on Homorazzi.com, my posts, though popular (wink), don't illicit as much controversy as Tyrell and Nic's Rihanna and Chris Brown posts, nor Adam's "Married Men" type posts. The closest thing I ever get to people yelling at me is my Award fashion posts. I'm sure a few of my choices will continue that trend. Hope you enjoy my fashion highlights.
So, we've had more than a couple of the tops (insert gay giggle here) exposed so far but tonight's the final cut as the drama quotient goes up and you just KNOW they're gonna start pitting similar looks and song-styles against one another as they get down to the wire. So far, I've been pretty iffy about how much I'm pro the chosen leading ladies and gents, but hopefully I'll manage to find a couple faves by the end of tonight. Personally, I do not need to love em' all, rather have two or three pics that I ride like a mule all the way to the top while I make fun of all the others that fall along the way. Hmmm, I'm beginning to think that everyone's right and I'm not such a good person…
Tonight's episode has some more final, unreleased performances and a butt load of tears from both the XX and XY chromosomal kids (and possibly one XXY, sorry Deandre). So, sit back and watch as your hopefuls either get crushed for the last time this season or make it through to the infamous Top 12 Girls and Boys showdowns.
"Today: 42 contestants become 24." It's finally here! After weeks and weeks of cutting and auditions we officially have our Top 12 Girls and Top 12 Boys announced for the world to rejoice/argue (actually, Seacrest lied, today is only Part 1 of 2). While I've been criticized lately for being too harsh on the kids and not "looking on the bright side of things," I honestly have to say that this season thus far has not been the strongest I've seen. Yes, there have been many great performances that pull at the heartstrings but overall I've felt the judges have given some passes to lack luster singing way more often than they ought to have considering the talent pool they have to choose from.
But, today is about the best. Today we see those who have made it along on storyline and one or two good showings get told it wasn't quite there and the resultant tears will flow. Fortunately for those who watch this show for the singing and not just the drama there were some great clips of final performances that I've included below as we get to see what talent brought these young hopefuls to the top in the judges' minds. So, without further adieu, let's get to the official Top 24 pics (again, just Part 1) and see what ol' bitchy Adam thinks of the decisions!
Click through to read the rest of my review and see some amazing final audition performances
Well, Hollywood week is finally done and a good amount of the sad sacks that needed to go have gone. And, I do mean sad as too many people often skate through those original auditions based on "Momma left me early on" stories that pull at the judges heartstrings so much that their ears can't hear actual talent and send them through. Hollywood was a great chance to see some talent that didn't make it to the silver screen before hand and an even better chance to stress out those tiny tots to the point that they crack and show not just what they had for lunch but also just how terrible and inexperienced they truly are. Still, it's not quite done and there's plenty more crap that needs to go. I mean, come on: Richie god damn Law is still there!
So it's now Vegas Week 1 and while we're still seeing the kids perform in groups, it's the BETTER remaining singers so hopefully way less lyrical amnesia than we saw last night in Hollywood. Unfortunately, they have them singing in the style of the 50s and 60s which sounds ridiculous to me as all they ever tell them come live performances is NOT to sound dated. Considering how things have been going in the season thus far I'm expecting more puke, more collapsing and a whole lot of tears… Oh right, and some "talented performers" :P Spoiler alert, I am SUPER disappointed in the performances, drama and judges tonight and find myself wondering if they were drinking from Paula's cup cause these three must are clearly on drugs.

On November 7th NH Media, announced that following the BBC News report on the UKISS' Peru concert, they received many offers to hold more concerts, including one in the UK.
A spokesperson for the agency said, "UKISS is currently arranging their schedule to hold an exclusive concert in Lichfield, UK."
"Hallyu has been popular only in Asia so far but now it has spread all over the world through social network services like YouTube. Since U-Kiss members are good at speaking foreign languages and have over 100,000 fans abroad. The group will lead Hallyu in Asia, South America, and Europe."
UKISS is also planning to hold concerts in Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, and Columbia for the first time as a Korean singers early next year. This also marks the first non-London concert to be held in the UK.
More info to come.

(Note; Location appears to be Lichfield near Birmingham, this is not 100% as Litchfield and Lichfied are written the same in Korean. Although Lichfield seems a more likely choice.)
