I went for my first u/s at 15 weeks, turns out the baby stopped growing at 7w 3 days. I had a little spotting around that time but put it down to thinking it was natural as alot of women i know have bled throughout their pregnancies. I had no cramping so i thought it was normal as this is my 1st M/C. I spotted and bled for 2 weeks after that. Up until now, I am still spotting/bleeding lightly every other day.I have to go in for bloodwork tomorrow. Did a pregnancy test tonight and it still shows a positive. How long will this last??
How long will the bleeding last??
Comments (8)
You will bleed as long as the baby is in you still and an HPT will show BFP as long as the baby is still there because the baby will still produce hCG whether or not the baby is alive.
Are you doing anything to help the m/c? Did they prescribe the pills, are you doing it naturally or D&C?
I had a natural m/c and my body got rid of everything fairly quickly. I started bleeding July 5th and by Monday July 9th. I had a negative HPT. On July 11th, my hCG was already down to 14.54 and I was completely done bleeding by that time as well.
I hope you find some relief soon.

I had a D&C and bled off and on for 2 weeks and then spotted (sometimes red sometimes brown) for 1 week. My Dr. wasn't doing bloodwork, so I took 2 pregnancy tests every week and finally got a negative 3 weeks after D&C. Everyone is different...some of the girls here got a negative 2 weeks after and some 4 + weeks. I hope you stop bleeding/spotting soon. Let us know what the bloodwork shows.
I would think it is normal since you haven't passed the baby yet, but I'm not sure. I opted for a D&C the day after I found out, so I don't know a lot about m/c naturally. I'm surprised they haven't already put you on medication to speed up the process if it has been over 7 weeks. I would definitely see what your Dr. recommends tomorrow.
My baby passed at 9 weeks and I was spotting around 13 weeks - miscarriage was confirmed at 13 weeks, 1 day. I was appalled that my body held onto the pregnancy so long after the baby passed... I opted to have the procedure (d&e) 2 days later. I am glad I did because what was supposed to be a D&E became a D&C... my doctor didn't expect to have to scrape my uterus since the fetus was already almost 4 weeks done, but my body just was not cooperating with the natural miscarriage process. I am glad I didn't wait because now I have a follow-up appointment on August 31st and I feel like I have closure. I understand that you want to opt for a natural miscarriage, and I wish you the best. I can't imagine having to wait for the process to be over with naturally... I hope it happens soon for you.

My baby passed away at 6 weeks and my body held on to it for 7 weeks after it passed away. I finally did have a natural m/c. After the m/c, I bled/spotted for 16 days.

I was 12 weeks pregnant when I found out that my baby passed at 8 weeks. I think I had to hear it before my body would start to pass everything. That very night I started spotting. The next day was heavier, then heavier etc. 5 days after the spotting started, I passed my baby still in the sac with the placenta attached(sorry if TMI). I am still bleeding 8 days afterwards but it is barely there. I went almost 2 days without bleeding at all. Every woman is so different. Sometimes you almost have to tell your body it is okay to let go!! I actually got to see my baby!! Adorable even at that tiny size. It was closure for me and we said goodbye! Big hugs to you and I am so sorry for your loss!
Yeah, my body didn't start the m/c until after the 2nd U/S confirming that the baby had no heartbeat. I just couldn't accept it after the first u/s. I Started bleeding one day after the second u/s and passed the baby 2 days after I started bleeding. The second u/s was over 2 weeks after the first one.

by Kemp, Barry
Publisher:Granta Books
Egyptian culture is divided from us by several millennia, a lost people, and a dead language. We can discover much about this fascinating civilization from its physical remains, but perhaps the greatest insights into the Egyptian mind come from Egyptian hieroglyphs. They reveal the priorities, concerns and beliefs of the Egyptians - a whole worldview. Unlike the western alphabet, which is an arbitrary set of symbols not anchored in reality, each Egyptian hieroglyph visually denotes a concept central to Egyptian thinking. The language and its written form is intimately bound up with the imaginative world of the Egyptians. Here Barry Kemp presents 100 of the Egyptian hieroglyphs to provide access to this unique culture. Kemp takes us on a journey through the Egyptian mind, revealing not only aspects of day to day life in Ancient Egypt, but gradually building a picture of the historical and mythological references that were the cornerstones of Egyptian thought. This fascinating book helps us get inside a long-vanished world.

The technology was also beneficial for hospital staff. Rather than constantly responding to minor patient requests in person, hospital caregivers were able to prioritize their responses based upon urgency or need. Minor questions were answered through the interactive monitors and more urgent requests were answered in person. The technology also gave hospitals real-time patient feedback and service alerts, which helped modify existing processes to improve patient satisfaction.
The white paper, titled "Enhancing the Patient Experience Through the Use of Interactive Technology," is available for download at http://www.theberylinstitute.org. You can also learn more about this white paper and other leading patient experience information at The Beryl Institute Patient Experience Conference on April 13-15, 2011. Visit http://www.theberylinstitute.org/?page=Conference for more information.
About The Beryl Institute:
The Beryl Institute serves as the professional home for stakeholders who recognize that the patient experience is an essential element in the execution and evaluation of healthcare performance. The Institute is committed to improving the patient experience, by serving as a reliable resource for shared information and proven practices, a dynamic incubator of leading research and new ideas and an interactive connector of effective leaders and dedicated practitioners. The Institute is uniquely positioned to develop and publicize cutting-edge concepts focused on improving the patient experience, touching thousands of healthcare executives and patients.
The Beryl Institute defines the patient experience as the sum of all interactions, shaped by an organization's culture, that influence patient perceptions across the continuum of care.

Oh, as a guide to prices - quarter of a million will buy you a two bedroom semi in the nicer part of Croydon walking distance from the station and fifteen minutes train from central London; somewhere like that and you don't even need a car or to worry about fuel costs (I've never even learnt to drive.) I'd expect you to get significantly more for your money than that in somewhere like Crawley. A large three bedroom detached walking distance from the station is about 400k+ depending on condition in Horsham.
Be warned though, the stamp duty tax is an evil thing that jumps from 1% to 3% *on the whole value* as soon as the purchase price goes above 250k; the only upside is that makes 249k the magic number for doing deals as vendors know buyers aren't willing to pay the added tax.

The aromas of spice-rubbed meats, curries, and simmering coconut milk mingle in Ginger Bay Cafe's dining room, giving visitors a taste of the tropics as soon as they enter. These vibrantly complex scents only grow stronger when orders arrive, such as plates of curried-chicken spring rolls with pineapple-ginger chutney, creole lobster, or jerk chicken with a secret blend of spices.
Inside the dining room, mottled orange and yellow walls evoke the look of an ocean sunset or really cool geometry book. The restaurant comes alive at night as live jazz bands and dance parties with reggae, R&B, and Caribbean soca rhythms echo throughout the space.

Users of LOINC include U.S. government agencies involved in health care including the National Library of Medicine, the departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense, Indian Health Service, National Cancer Institute and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
LOINC began in the mid-1990s when Regenstrief investigators, using their extensive experience with electronic medical records, developed the Indiana Network for Patient Care, the nation's first citywide health information exchange. The researcher clinicians found they could receive data from various INPC-member institutions but that the clinical content was difficult to interpret because each used a different code for the same test or observation. A blood sugar result at one institution might be called a blood glucose at another or even something totally different at a third facility. It was like receiving messages in French, Spanish and Italian when all they could understand was English.
Regenstrief investigators saw the need for a lingua franca, and LOINC was born. From the beginning it has been a free and open system, encouraging additions, comments and feedback. Two new versions of LOINC are issued annually, the most recent one this month, with more than 2,000 new terms for tests or clinical observations per release. These new additions are based on requests from end users.
"With support from the National Library of Medicine, Regenstrief Institute and other organizations, we continue developing LOINC as an open, freely available standard. LOINC's growing worldwide adoption is a testament to both the need for a common language and the success of this open approach," Dr. Vreeman said.

Charity Commission responds to Public Accounts Committee's report
The Cup Trust, set up as a charity in 2009, raised £176m from donations during its first two years but distributed just £55,000 to charity and claimed approximately £46m in Gift Aid.
The Charity Commission has been heavily criticised for registering the Cup Trust as a charity. In its response to the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on this point, the commission responded that it has reviewed its decision and came to the same conclusion, as the Cup Trust was legally established for exclusively charitable purposes for public benefit and fell within the jurisdiction of the High Court. Further justification for this decision is due to be published once the ongoing statutory inquiry into the Cup Trust has concluded…

"I had to replace the transmission when it was less than 80k. I found out this is a common problem in Maximas and they actually tried to recall the transmission, but Nissan declined... THIS IS ABSURD that this is a common problem. My car is a 2004... you should have to replace a transmission that soon. It cost $4500. The heater in my car doesn't blow hot air when it is idling... I have had to replace multiple sensors in the car, each costing $200-300. My car is now having transmission problems again, and I have been told it will cost another $4500... and it was replaced by a Nissan Dealership... I will never buy another Nissan again. I have dumped so much money in this car... I bought it thinking it would be a reliable car and it has put me in the whole financially. DO NOT BUY NISSAN!"

"Nice car, but I don't think I will purchase another. Moving up to the Infiniti G or M. This car has had constant front end issues and the dealership would not repair even under warranty. Too many squeaks and noises. They come from the hood, the pass door, and under the hood, as well as the front end each time you drive over a speed bump. The CD (Bose Sys) has been replaced under warranty and now is intermittant again. Good power but the tranny hesitates too much. Also something that drives me nuts on a premium car like this is the fact that all the controls do not light up at night, meaning you have to turn the interior lites on to see how to operate your accesories. Won't buy again, mostly because of dealer support and the freakin' squeaks!"

"disappointed in the vehicle; expected better gas mileage, has electronic issues (power window) and had to replace battery at 18 months. Cosmetic flaws in front name plate. Leather seats showing signifcant wear after only 2 years being driven by mature woman with no children. Car is good looking and fast when fueled with premium gas. Likely not to buy another Nissan based on this experience."

"This car was by far the best car I have ever owned! It was roomy dependable and classy! Got great gas mileage and had alot of power. But most imoportant it saved my family's life! My husband, my two babies (2ys and 7m) and I were in a horrible rollover accident while driving this car. Just by looking at the car you would not expect there to be any survivors. But because of how well built the maxima was and having all 6 air bags deploy, with the help of seat belts and proper child seats, we all walked away without a broken bones or stiches! I thank God every day for sparing our lives and I know that if we were driving anything else our luck might not be so good."

Racine Salon de Beaute and SpaRead MoreFor more than 20 years, Racine Salon de Beaute and Spa has been a destination for makeovers, anti-aging treatments, and even an Oscar-nominated documentary or two. The salon and spa's varied services range from haircuts and extensions to the signature Oceans Racine body wrap—it includes a sea-mud wrap that's made with hydrating French seaweed, a stop in the seven-head steam shower, and an application of toning body cream. But beyond beautifying and relaxing clients, the staff at Racine Salon also does its best to serve the community. Since 2003, the salon has been home to the Mondays at Racine cancer care program, which provides complimentary services for cancer patients. So the salon was a natural fit when HBO sought to make a documentary spotlighting how cancer patients respond to hair loss. The resulting documentary, Mondays at Racine, went on to nab an Oscar nomination and numerous film-festival awards.341 Main StreetIslip, NY US
ChiroMassageRead MoreHealing Centers of America's wellness experts help bodies heal from injuries and fight chronic pain all without surgery. Chiropractors might determine the source of pain during chiropractic exams, and then perform adjustments to realign vertebrae and take pressure off the disks between them. Massage therapists might manipulate the body's soft tissues to improve mobility during ChiroMassages. These kneadings shun the add-ons associated with traditional spas—aromatherapy oils, models feeding clients morsels of cheese—and focus on rehabilitation. Another popular massage at Healing Centers of America, the HydroMassage, relies on waves and jets of heated water to ease tension and soothe muscles. This hands-free kneading allows clients to remain fully clothed. Or, clients might accelerate their body's natural healing response through whole-body-vibration therapy, which also tones muscles, increases cellular oxygen uptake, and promotes lymphatic drainage.152 Islip AvenueIslip, NY US

According to the official NFL transactions list, the Pittsburgh Steelers signed two more free agent players to reserve/futures contracts on Monday, cornerback Devin Smith and linebacker Dan Molls
According to the official NFL transactions list, the Pittsburgh Steelers signed two more free agent players to reserve/futures contracts on Monday, cornerback Devin Smith and linebacker Dan Molls
Molls is very interesting. I like what I am reading. Put some weight on him, have him hit the weights and you never know.
Steelers sign Miguel Maysonet to reserve/future deal
Posted by Mike Wilkening on January 7, 2014
The Steelers are giving Miguel Maysonet a look.
The 24-year-old tailback was among four players the club signed to reserve/future contracts on Tuesday.
Maysonet had stints with the Eagles, Browns, Chargers, Colts, Jets and Redskins in 2013. The former Stony Brook star signed with Philadelphia as an undrafted free agent last April.
The Steelers also signed linebacker Dan Molis (Toledo), wide receiver Lanear Sampson (Baylor) and cornerback Devin Smith (Wisconsin) to deals.
If I'm not mistaken linebacker Dan Molls lead all colleges in tackles for 2012. I don't think I ever saw him play but remember the name from a stat sheet. We could certainly use a guy in the middle with a nose for the ball.
Steelers Sign DE Al Lapuaho to a Reserve/Future Contract
The Pittsburgh Steelers signed another player to a Reserve/Future contract earlier today.
After he transferred from Snow Junior College in Utah, Al Lapuaho played the final two years of his collegiate career close to home with the Utah State Aggies. Overall, the defensive lineman racked up 66 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss and 2.0 sacks during his 26-games with the school.
Undrafted last spring, Al Lapuaho inked a free agent deal with the St. Louis Rams shortly after the draft process finished. Although the 22 year old was cut by the Rams after the preseason and training camp periods came to a close, he caught on with the Miami Dolphins and stayed on their practice squad for most of his rookie campaign last fall.
The addition of Lapuaho (63″ 284 lbs.) gives the Steelers another defensive lineman to add to what could be an extremely thin mix after the free agency period begins.
Final Ruthless Mock:
1.22 CB Marcus Peters, 6'0" 197 lbs., Washington
2.56 FS Damarious Randall, 5'11" 196 lbs., Arizona State
3.87 TE Clive Walford, 6'4" 251 lbs., Miami
4.121 DE Henry Anderson, 6'6" 294 lbs., Stanford
5.160 WR Titus Davis, 6'1" 196 lbs., Central Michigan
6.199 OLB Kyle Emanuel, 6'3" 255 lbs., North Dakota State
6.212c OLB Max Valles, 6'5" 251 lbs., Virginia
7.239 RB John Crockett, 6'0" 217 lbs., North Dakota State
I don't know any of these players besides Brad Wing. I really hope Wing turns out and stays our punter. But then again...I said the same thing about Mesko and look how that turned out...****.
In other news, the Steelers announced they had signed two more players to their off-season roster, wide receiver jasper Collins and safety Jordan Dangerfield.

I have bought this twice. Catrice has to be my favourite drug store brand. The quality of this is super! It's the perfect colour, I have dark hair but use the lighter colour in the compact. Much better than a few of the more expensive brow products I have dabbled in. It comes with a little brush to sweep and the other end to draw, and features a cute mini tweezers too.

I only use the lighter colour and my brows are medium brown and very cool toned. Only if I'm going for a very dramatic look with dark eyebrows, I will use some of the dark colour, too. I like the colour and it's easy to apply. It even has a little brush and tweezers and a mirrow. Sadly, my old one broke, the lid came of, so the packaging isn't that sturdy. The price is pretty normal for a cheaper drugstore brand.
I would repurchase it again and again, but I think it'll last a long time.
Tip: This product is propably better for people with medium to dark brows.

I love this product!
The packaging is sturdy and neat. I love the mini tweezers that come with this!
This is the only eyebrow product I've been able to find that doesn't have a red undertone to it. The shades are cool and perfect to fill in my dark brown eyebrows - I use the lighter shade for the entire brow and then the darker shade for any areas that need more definition, like the sparser outer ends of my brows.
I would definitely recommend this product and would repurchase this (although it seems like my current one will last forever!).

I love this product! It is so affordable! It is about 8SGD and it comes with 2 different colors, 1 brush and a tweezers. And it lasted the entire day! Good quality and good price! I've tried different eyebrow kit and they usually do not last very long because I am one of those unfortunate ones that do not have many hairs on my brows so if I do not draw my brows, they are basically invisible. But other products that I've use, will slipped off within 2 hours after I apply so it is kinda useless. But this don't! So I LOVE IT VERY MUCH. I like the packaging too but probably I was too rough and the broke the casing. But overall, this is an excellent product!

I love having dark eyebrows, I'm blonde but i love using both colours, so natural not at all an orange colour, plus love the way it has a mini tweezers and application brush AND mirror. Very compact and handy to bring in a makeup bag! FAB set for a FAB price!

This is a very unexpensive kit for eyebrows. The two colours are not orange or red, they are very natural. I don't like when is evident the eyebrows are painted, and with this is not noticed.
I also use the darkest colour as a normal shadow, it is well pigmented and with a prebase last long. The packaging is simple and lovely small, with a double sided mini brush that works, an a small tweezer.

This product is adorable - I couldn't resist. It's a marvellously packaged thing - it has two shades of powder on top, with a mirror, and in a wee drawer underneath is a suprisingly good brush and a teeny tiny tweezers. All dirt cheap.
So where's the problem? It's slightly too dark for my blonde colouring, even the lighter shade. I gave it to my brunette sister. I'm quite sad about it though!

Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Neutral

This is a cute little set that I think only comes in one color combination. It has a light shade and a darker shade. What I like about it is that they have no red undertones. They look slightly ashy, which I find always looks best with my coloring. I have dark eyebrows that aren't sparse overall but I fill them in anyway because it adds definition. I think eyebrows are one of the most important features in a face. If I use a color in the same color of my eyebrows they will come out looking way too dark and harsh, so I actually always use light colors. That gives me the definition I want without darkening the appearance of my brows. I usually use the lightest shade all over, sometimes darkening up the end of my brows with the darker shade.
I think this set could be used for a variety of different colorings, at least blondes, brunettes and everything in between. I'm not sure about red hair.
The colors are nicely pigmented, I don't need much. There is a bit of kick-up, but I don't mind this personally. It applies just fine and it stays put all day. I don't really know what else I can say about the powders.
The packaging is cute and functional. It has a mirror and in the bottom is a little drawer that holds a small tweezer and a small two-sided brush with an angled brush on one side and a brush to comb up the hairs on the other side. I prefer my tweezerman and a brush with a longer handle for everyday use, but for traveling it's fine. You have everything you need in this little box.
The packaging is not very luxurious feeling but it's also not flimsy.
Overall I think this is a decent product for a great price (4 euros or so). I use it everyday. I especially like that the colors have no red undertones.

"For a person who had always been fascinated by death and its interconnections with sex, Foucault's life came to an eerie ending when he died of AIDS in 1984," having "embraced" the San Francisco bath house scene when its dangers were well known, and its inherent immorality –even before the AIDS era – should have been, in any case, self-evident.
"As we shall see later in this chapter," Glazov continues, "many leftist homosexuals would follow this pattern of self-hate and a craving for death. This pathological behavior mirrors that of other leftist intellectuals supporting tyrannies that murder intellectuals" – Foucault, for instance, was a vocal admirer of Iran's Khomeini.

Questions & Answers
Which of Foucault's applied archaeologies do people find the best? The most rich or stimulating? Applied as in excluding the methodological The Archaeology of Knowledge (which is a great book in its own right as a statement of what archaeology is).And this:
So how would one rate The History of Sexuality volume 1, in relation to Foucault's other work?And this:
Do you know of any way to refute the criticism of Spark Notes, with regards to the method of archaeology and the last chapter of the Archaeology of Knowledge?I ask, "Do questions like these belong on an academic list that discusses the work of Michel Foucault? How do these types of questions further the study of Foucault's methods, writings, and theories?"
What are your thoughts on archaeology as a method.

'imposing discipline is an act of love'
"Autonomy breeds innovation at struggling high school" Jamaica Plains Gazette
The students the Gazette spoke to all recognized Code Blue primarily as a disciplinary tool. Getting "coded" is now common parlance for getting in trouble, students told the Gazette.
"You do not want to get coded," said senior Jason Semado.
Luis Reyes Jr., also a senior, said the system "makes it harder for kids to run around."
"Teachers use that program for discipline. I try to stay away from it," said Anis Abdulle, an 11th grader and editor of the school newspaper.
The system, it turns out, has its origin in high-level theoretical considerations of discipline and control in modern society. Rud told the Gazette Michel Foucault's book, "Discipline and Punish," provided some of the inspiration for the system.
In that book, Foucault outlines a theory that institutions, including schools and prisons are constantly striving to master a system of perfect surveillance. The French theorist uses a prison design known as the Panopticon—originally developed in the 1800s—as a metaphor for modern society. In that design a darkened tower is surrounded by a ring of backlit prison cells, so every movement in the cells is visible from the tower, but activity inside the tower is invisible from the cells. The ultimate goal of the system is for inmates, who can never know if they are being watched, to police themselves.
While Foucault's treatise described what he called disciplinary society in unequivocally negative terms, Rud, in a unique reading, apparently took a positive lesson from it.
Having more information gives teachers perspective to confront problematic student behavior in different ways, he said. Traditionally, Isolated in the classroom setting, "teachers see symptoms. Behavioral problems, absences and altercations automatically become disciplinary issues," he said.
But Code Blue offers teachers a fuller understanding of what is going on in their classrooms. Rud said in his experience, students respond positively when authority figures are able to assert coherent authority.
"Kids flock to teachers like me who are more on the setting boundaries side of things, he said. "Growing up, my parents and teachers didn't let me fall through the cracks. Setting boundaries for kids and imposing discipline is an act of love."

The irony of Foucault is that reading his books can be such an exciting, liberating experience. Language breaking off its kinship with things, Cuvier smashing the glass jars in the museum of natural history, and immutable nature itself turning out to be a human construction: it all sounds like a marvellous adventure. In Foucault's archaeologies, as in Freud's dreams, seemingly arbitrary dates, names and images line up to produce a secret meaning and a message about the future. And yet, Foucault's work is somehow also a mill for grinding out disciplined bodies subject to the normalising gaze. The stethoscope turns out to function exactly like the Panopticon, which does justice neither to the seriousness of incarceration, nor to the Foucauldian conception of heterogeneity.Elif Batuman, "On Complaining," The London Review of Books

announcement of interest
The Foucault Society is pleased to announce our new Seminar Series on Michel Foucault's The Birth of Biopolitics: Lectures at the College de France, 1978-1979 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2008), to be held November 2008 through June 2009 in New York City.
The first two meetings will be facilitated by Eduardo Mendieta, Professor of Philosophy at Stony Brook University.
First meeting:
Chapter One: "10 January 1979" (pages 1-25)
Thursday, November 13, 2008, 7:00-9:00pm
CUNY Graduate Center, 365 Fifth Avenue, Room 5409
Second meeting:
Chapter Two: "17 January 1979" (pages 27-50)
Thursday, December 5, 7:00-9:00pm
William E. Macaulay Honors College, CUNY, 35 W. 67th St.
About the Seminar:
The Birth of Biopolitics, the latest in the series of Foucault's lectures from the mid-1970s to be translated into English, is remarkably relevant today. Our year-long public seminar will pursue Foucault's question: How do liberal governments produce governable subjects—-individuals who consent to be governed? We will situate the lectures in the context of Foucault's better known work (e.g. Discipline and Punish and History of Sexuality), discuss what he means by biopolitics, consider how the lectures develop his theory of power-knowledge, and debate how this text can help us to refine our understanding of Foucault's intellectual and political project.
The seminar will meet monthly from November 2008 through June 2009. Offering both an accessible introduction to Foucault's work and close critical study of Foucault's lectures, this seminar is open to people with all levels of experience.
This program is supported by the New York Council for the Humanities.
About the faculty:
Eduardo Mendieta is Professor of Philosophy at the State University of New York, Stony Brook, where he is the director of the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies. He is co-editor of Biopolitics and Racism: Foucauldian Genealogies (SUNY Press, forthcoming) and author of Global Fragments: Globalizations, Latinamericanisms, and Critical Theory (SUNY Press, 2007), among other books. His current book project is titled, Philosophy's War: Logos, Polemos, Topos.
Faculty for upcoming meetings include:
--Samuel Binkley, Assistant Professor of Sociology, Emerson College.
--Jeffrey Bussolini, Associate Professor, Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work, College of Staten Island, CUNY.
--Patricia Ticineto Clough, Professor of Sociology, Women's Studies, and Intercultural Studies, Queens College and the Graduate School, CUNY.

quoting x to quote y to quote Foucault
With Derrida, you can hardly misread him, because he's so obscure. Every time you say, "He says so and so," he always says, "You misunderstood me." But if you try to figure out the correct interpretation, then that's not so easy. I once said this to Michel Foucault, who was more hostile to Derrida even than I am, and Foucault said that Derrida practiced the method of obscurantisme terroriste (terrorism of obscurantism). We were speaking French. And I said, "What the hell do you mean by that?" And he said, "He writes so obscurely you can't tell what he's saying, that's the obscurantism part, and then when you criticize him, he can always say, 'You didn't understand me; you're an idiot.' That's the terrorism part." And I like that. So I wrote an article about Derrida. I asked Michel if it was OK if I quoted that passage, and he said yes.Fascinating. No? Yes.

thank you, captain obvious
Foucault has therefore contributed significantly to an understanding of what it is that intellectuals of the 'specific' variety do in and through their intellectual work, namely something that is commensurate with the complexity of contemporary society. It remains a constant challenge to academics in universities to step outside of the 'ivory tower' in this manner.Bert Olivier, "Foucault on Intellectuals" in Thought Leader

'Rebels without a clue'
All in all, just another example of "Foucault Derangement Syndrome" (FDS).
The influential French philosopher Michel Foucault [who] taught a whole generation to distrust authority, even when it appeared to be attempting to protect the weak from attack, or protecting the vulnerable from themselves.
This belief that all authority is dangerous has become one of the central doctrines of our times - with deeply problematic consequences.

Foucault and Derrida ...
Lowbrow artists are a very diverse bunch, and they have a wide range of influences. Everything from hot rods to comics to psychaedelic. But when they talk about painters who've influenced them, not one of them that I've read about, that I know about, has ever mentioned a painter after the beginning of the twentieth century. They all go back to at least the end of the nineteenth century, and most of them go back to the Renaissance, to the old masters. Because it's the technique that turns them on. That's why they left art school, these guys. They went to art school thinking I could learn how to paint like that. And they got to art school and they got Foucault and Derrida. At art school.So many of them left. Same with street artists. They've got astonishingly consistent biographies. These people go to art school for a couple of years, they drop out, they go to Europe, they go around the museums, they see all this art, and they come home and start teaching themselves how to paint like that. They start learning techniques that artists—serious artists—haven't used for a century. Like scumbling, like Dan Witz does. Chris Ware would be a classic example. Chris Ware dropped out of art school because nobody would teach him how to draw. [Hyperlinks added]

quoting Foucault
"After all," mused Foucault in his work on the classics written during his last days, "what would be the value of the passion for knowledge if it resulted only in a certain knowingness, and not, in one way or another, in the knower's straying afield from himself? There are times in life when the question of knowing if one can think differently than one thinks, and perceive differently than one sees, is absolutely necessary if one is to go on thinking and reflecting at all." [Foucault, The Use of Pleasure, pg. 8]Unlike Brown, who also quotes this passage (The Body and Society, pg. xviii), Rothwell eliminates the ellipses Brown dutifully retained.
The exact quotation from my copy of The Use of Pleasure, translated by Robert Hurley (NY: Vintage Books, 1990):
After all, what would be the value of the passion for knowledge if it resulted only in a certain amount of knowledgeableness and not, in one way or another and to the extent possible, in the knower's straying afield of himself? There are times in life when the question of knowing if one can think differently than one thinks, and perceive differently than one sees, is absolutely necessary if one is to go on looking and reflecting at all.

Foucault in the "Top 10 philosophers' deaths"
Critchley places Michel Foucault at number 10:
10. Michel Foucault (1926-1984)
Foucault was first hospitalized in June 1984 with the symptoms of a nasty and persistent flu, fatigue, terrible coughing and migraine. "It's like being in a fog," he said. But he carried on working until the end on the second and third volumes of The History of Sexuality, which appeared shortly before his death. Although he was a very early victim of the virus, it seems that Foucault knew that he had Aids. Foucault was fond of reading Seneca towards the end and died on 25 June like a classical philosopher.

Foucault in the news
The philosopher Michel Foucault observed that 'We have become a singularly confessing society. The confession spreads its wings far and wide ... one confesses one's sins, one's thoughts and desires, one's illnesses and troubles; one goes about telling, with the greatest precision, what is most difficult to tell'. Foucault traces the tendency to bare all back to the Middle Ages, where it had its origins in the Catholic confessional. It has become a form of truth, he argued, progressively displacing the myths of bravery, courage and marvellous deeds that dominated previous eras and other cultures.Spit and Tell, The Guardian
Foucault died in 1984, before the internet took off and before the age of celebrity had really got going. That age introduces a massive generalisation of the confessional principle, now completely secularised. Everything the celebrity does has to be visible, as part and parcel of what celebrity is. This is the reason why those who become celebrities talk endlessly of the intrusions of the media, of their inability any longer to be a private citizen, yet at the same time are hopelessly addicted to the very processes about which they complain.

Foucault in Socialist Worker
There are serious political weaknesses in Foucault's work. But many people are inspired by the radical side of his writing. He may not be easy to read – but what he does have to say is almost always thought provoking.Yawn; more pseudo-Socialist drivel from a faux-revolutionary zine.

weekend must read
Monsters gave birth to modernity: those unnamable figures of horror and fascination shadow civilization as its constitutive and abjected discontent. In Europe, from the late eighteenth century on, the term monstrosity mobilized a set of discursive practices that tied racial and sexual deviancy to an overall apparatus of discipline, and, later in the nineteenth century, to the emergence of biopolitics. This article draws a history of monstrosity through overlapping discourses, tying the contemporary figure of the monster-terrorist to the sexual and racial deviancy of what Michel Foucault termed the 'Abnormals.' Beginning with an engagement with Deleuze's and Foucault's notion of 'biopolitics,' this article follows the emergence of the monster-terrorist in that subfield of policy studies known as 'terrorism studies.' This article argues that specific and implicit conceptions of the civilized psyche, linked to norms of the heterosexual family, ground the figure of the Islamic terrorist in an older colonial discourse of the despotic and licentious Oriental male.

essay: "Biopolitics of Security in the 21st Century"
This essay addresses two questions. It first asks what happens to security practices when they take species life as their referent object. It then asks what happens to security practices which take species life as their referent object when the very understanding of species life undergoes transformation and change. In the process of addressing these two questions the essay provides and exegesis of Michel Foucault's analytic of biopolitics as a dispositif de sécurité and contrasts this account of security with that given by traditional geopolitical security discourses. Biopolitics of security secure by instantiating a general economy of the contingent throughout all the processes of circulation which impinge upon the promotion of the re-productive powers and potentials of 'life' as species being. The essay also theorises beyond Foucault when it interrogates the impact in the 20th century of the compression of morbidity on populations and the molecular revolution on what we now understand life to be. It concludes that 'population' which was the empirical referent of early biopolitics is being superseded by 'heterogenesis'. This serves as the empirical referent for the recombinant biopolitics of security of the molecular age.

book review: Security, Territory, Population.
07 October 2007
Security, Territory, Population, Lecture One, Notes
Greetings readers,
I ran into a lot of work this past week and shall run into more work next week that will, needless to say, effect the time I have to devote to reading Foucault. However, I have organized some of the notes I jotted while reading Lecture One of Security, Territory, Population. This post shall contain these notes. I may revisit them during the week and write a post that teases out a few of their themes or, perhaps, poses a few questions.
First, some definitions
- Bio-power: a "set of mechanisms" of power that focus upon the "biological feature of the human species". Bio-power is concerned with species, with a mass, opposed to disciplinary power which is concerned with humans as individuals (1). The term is probably familiar, especially after our previous reading of "Society Must Be Defended", lecture eleven.
- Power: "a set of procedures" (2) and processes that "are not 'self-generating' or 'self subsistent'". Power is a product and part of relationships (a cause and effect?). Power within one discourse or relation shares similar structures and characteristics to power within other discourses or relations (2).
- "politics of truth": Foucault uses this intriguing phrase to define philosophy. In short, "the politics of truth" is Foucault's enterprise, the term for his interrogation and "analysis of mechanisms of power". Foucault suggests, "I see its role as that of showing the knowledge effects produced by the struggles, confrontations, and battles that take place within our society, and by the tactics of power that are the elements of this struggle" (3). Are the "politics of truth" an example of an epistemological analysis?
- "apparatuses of security": multipart definition, (a) "spaces of security"; (b) "treatment of the uncertain"; (c) "form of normalization specific to security" [regulatory]; and (d) the intersections of security with population, which is both an "object and subject" of security mechanisms (11).
- Security: relies on "material" givens, both "natural" and "artificial"; works upon "series" of "probabilities" (19) ; organizes "elements" that have multiple uses; works toward the future to account for future possibilities (20).
- "the milieu": space of security; where security mechanisms work; composed of "natural" and "artificial" givens; "an element in which a circular link is provided between effects and causes"; and a "field of intervention" in which to work upon a "multiplicity of individuals" (21).
Second, schematic points
- Mechanisms of security and technologies of biopower are embedded within the previous epistemes of power: "sovereignty" and "disciplinary". Hence, "there is not a series of successive elements, the appearance of the new causing the earlier ones to disappear" (8). Instead of deploying "periodizations" or even, paradigms, Foucault suggests to engage in a "history of technologies" that interrogates how, why, and when the focuses and aims of technologies of power alter (8-9).
- Mechanisms of security work to make "old armatures of law and discipline function in addition to the specific mechanism of security" (10). So when the technologies of security become "imperative" they work to deploy technologies of sovereignty and discipline in new ways, for new goals?
- "So, since there has to be an imperative, I would like the one underpinning the theoretical analysis we are attempting to be quite simply a conditional imperative of the kind: If you want to struggle, here are some key points, here are some lines of force, here are some constrictions and blockages. In other words, I would like these imperatives to be no more than tactical pointers" (3).
- Other schematic points are included in my regurgitation of definitions.
Third, two fascinating examples
- Nantes and circulation (18-20).
- Quotes from Moheau's Recherches sur la population(22-23).
Anything I missed that you wish to include?
Best wishes,

Pre-colonial Biopower
Ortho wrote:
Biopower, on the other hand, focused on individuals as a people, as a species; as a mass to regulate, characterize, mobilize, and forecast. Where disciplinary power focused on particular individuals, biopower focused upon a generalized and generalizable individual who could be serialized (placed in a repeatable and interchangeable sequence).
This description seems to apply to the Zulu kingdom during Shaka's reign from 1818 to 1828. As Shaka's kingdom expanded, men and women were given precisely-defined roles based on their age. From the age of 20 to 40, men were required to fight in regiments; they were forbidden to marry or engage in sexual relations. Women from the age of 20 to 40 were required to work as agricultural producers in order to feed the fighting regiments. Anyone who disobeyed these demands was liable to be killed; their generalization made their replacement quite easy. After the age of 40, men and women were allowed to marry and live together.
Some scholars suggest that Shaka felt his kingdom was already overpopulated and so he divided men and women up in this way in order to prevent the creation of more subjects. Others suggest that Shaka believed sexual activity sapped the strength of his fighters. As Mickey says in Rocky, "Women weaken legs." No one knows for sure. But regardless of the motivation, Shaka introduced precise technologies for controlling the population in these ways, particularly through the use of physical space--the construction and placement of barracks and homesteads, for instance. Also the creation of a bureaucracy charged with upholding and enforcing the regulations.
I think what we see in the case of the Zulu kingdom is the development of new technologies and classificatory systems in order to subordinate the interests of individuals to the needs of the state and to control the population. That sounds like bio-power to me. Did it lead to new methods of knowledge production? How could it not have?

Biopower and Western Medicine
biopower as metaphor for knowledge production
An example of biopower epistemology may be the various mechanisms of governmentality deployed by imperialists during nineteenth- and twentieth-century colonial encounters in Africa. For example, the creation of censuses to know the colonial population; health programs to regulate the population as a mass; prenatal programs to influence birth rates; maps to know the land; the creation of museums and archives to know and preserve the "African" past (For examples in colonial Asia, see Anderson's Imagined Communities, chapter 10). Not only are these mechanisms concerned with the colonial population as a mass, the mechanisms reflect a way of producing knowledge that erases individuality and buries particularities within generalizable categories and classifications. Of course, in all of these colonial mechanisms, we can identify disciplinary technologies as well.
Another example of a biopower epistemology may be this post's argument, which erases particulars in favor of deploying a universalized, and generalizable colonial encounter across the continent of Africa. Obviously, many current historiographical trends attempt to distance themselves from the production of knowledge based upon a biopower epistemology.
Any thoughts?

text: Contax RTS II and Contax RX bodies. Coupled with the f2.8 28mm distagon, f1.4 50mm, f2.5 135mm, and f2.8 180mm. Great systems!! I did get rid of them though as the main cameras I use now are medium and large format. I do occasionally use the 35mm panoramic back on my Mamiya 6 MF :-). The only other 35mm camera I own is a Yashica T4 I picked up from the cabelas bargain cave..... for $30!! Apparently one of the game camera companies modified them for use in some of the older game cams. My T4 has a small plug fitting JBWelded onto the front, that's likely to an IR trip switch. Now most game cams are digital :-)
