Male Chest Reduction
Gynecomastia – more commonly known as man boobs – affects around 15% of adult men in the UK and is caused when excess fat develops in a man's breast area. Many young individuals develop gynaecomastia using drugs for bodybuilding in the gym and some require male breast reduction after weight loss. The Private Clinic offers a range of male breast reduction treatments to help reduce excess fat on the male chest. These include; VASER Liposuction, MicroLipo and Surgical Liposuction.
Each patient has to be evaluated individually to see what's best for him; his medical history has to be evaluated and an ultrasound scan should be performed in certain cases to rule out any lumps or malignancies which, although extremely rare, can still occur even in male breast tissue.
Massive weight loss patients may require a more complex procedure which is similar to a female breast reduction with skin incisions and scars.
The Private Clinic's doctors have extensive experience in all forms of liposuction for men treatments, and the team perform close to 2000 VASER Lipo treatments each year (more than any other clinic in Europe). Over 35% of our liposuction patients are male, with the chest being one of the most common problem areas. Male Chest Reduction surgery consultations with our expert surgeons take place in our clinics in: London, Birmingham, Bristol, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester and Northampton.
Breast fat can be very hard to shift, even if a weight loss plan has worked for the rest of the body, and the resulting 'man boobs' can cause embarrassment and can undermine confidence. The good news is there are safe, effective ways to tackle this problem, depending on your needs and the results you're looking to achieve.
"My man boobs were always a problem and I felt embarrassed in the changing rooms after going to the gym. I had a fit body and good physique but with breasts!
I had Vaser Lipo and after reduced bruising and swelling the results look impressive! I would recommend it to anyone!"
Male Chest Reduction (Gynecomastia)
Liposuction gynecomastia is the best way to target stubborn areas of fat that simply won't shift. This is why we offer three different variations of the treatment for 'moob' reduction:
VASER Lipo
VASER Liposuction is a minimally invasive treatment for gynecomastia that can give you the body you want, without the pain and risk of major surgery and without the need of general anaesthetic. It is less invasive than traditional liposuction and, because it differentiates between fat and important tissues such as nerves, blood vessels and connective tissues, the risk of damage to these tissues is practically eliminated.
With VASER liposuction, the fat is liquefied and removed from the body through a gentle suction process. Less invasive than traditional liposuction, VASER lipo is a walk-in walk-out procedure which doesn't require a hospital stay or long time away from work or sport activities. Results are very soft and natural looking.
For patients who prefer a very athletic, sculpted look, VASER High Definition is a better option. Click here for our gallery of before and after photos and to see the difference between standard VASER and VASER High Definition.
Featured on Tatler's 2011 Guide of Beauty and Cosmetic Surgery, the Microcannulas Technique or MicroLipo is also ideal for male breast reduction. Cannulas less than 3 mm in diameter are used to remove the fat, which means there is less risk of irregularities and depressions in the skin compared to regular liposuction.
Both VASER and MicroLipo are carried out under local anaesthetic, so you'll feel no pain during your treatment.
Surgical Liposuction
Most patients, moderately overweight and with so called pseudo-gynecomastia are well-suited for treatment with liposuction alone. Minimal excess skin will shrink after surgery and re-drape in a satisfactory manner over the pectoralis muscles during the healing process.
Surgical liposuction is more invasive than the other two forms, but best for those who have a large amount of fat to be extracted. It is often performed under general anaesthetic, which means you may require a hospital stay but your surgeon will explain thoroughly why it will suit your needs best before you decide to go ahead.
Liposuction for Men – Results
Pockets of fat in your chest area can successfully be reduced, improving the overall shape and contours of your body.* However, your chest area will show the most improvement in the months after the procedure.
Recovery / Downtime
Downtime is minimal for VASER and MicroLipo and you can get back to your daily routine almost immediately. However, because there may be some bruising and swelling, it's best to wait one to two weeks before you hit the gym or do any other rigorous physical activity. Many of our procedures allow patients to return to work within 48-72 hours. Surgical Liposuction will require a longer recovery period, and you may have drains fitted following treatment. Your recovery will be explained thoroughly to you during consultations, as each treatment is entirely individual.

I recently had a male chest reduction surgery done at The Private Clinic in Leeds. It was an amazing experience and the matter was dealt professionally and efficiently. I spoke with Sorena at my initial consultation and the process was very straight forward. Within 4 weeks of visiting the clinic I had completed my surgery and got amazing results. This has enhanced my self-confidence. I was very skeptical at the start however Sorena put me at ease and was great. My surgery was with Dr Vlok who I had a meeting with before the surgery where he showed me before and after surgery images of other patients. I was very pleased with the results I saw and therefore agreed to go ahead with the surgery. I would recommend anyone who has the same issue as I had to contact The Private Clinic as they are the best.
Overall it was an amazing experience and my results were better than expected. Now I feel more comfortable in my own skin.
Thanks a lot The Private Clinic!Anon, Leeds
"I am a 36 year old who had chest reduction, and lipo on my love handles and stomach. I am not overweight; the fat on my body is positioned weird and I have always – since I was a child – felt uncomfortable taking off my shirt, even to shower and sleep.
After many false starts, I was recommended to Dr. Gupta at The Private Clinic. From my initial consultation I felt immediately at ease, and he is assisted by a team of personable and able nurses.
Dr. Gupta thoroughly explained the procedure and said it would be a life changing event.
I am pleased to see that within weeks of the procedures I was confident and on a trip to Florida, where I had no issue both taking off my shirt and receiving the numerous compliments on my physique from friends and family.
My only regret is not finding Dr. Gupta sooner. I feel so much more comfortable in clothing and with myself. I has positively alerted my life." *P.L., London
This year I decided to deal head-on with an issue that has blighted my life since I was 22. I am now fifty, so I haven't exactly rushed into it.
For nearly 30 years I have been hiding a fine pair of male breasts with every imaginable method. At first I tried losing weight and dropped down to nine stone. It didn't work. So I tried building muscles to hide the offencive orbs. It just made it worse. Now I was reduced to buying baggy jumpers. Very hot in summer but it did work!
Recently, a new word has entered the English dictionary – Moobs. This is when I knew I had to do something. I decided to look into surgery for a male chest reduction, but I was keen to do it without telling anyone. So I really needed a very gentle procedure with minimum downtime. It took some time to find Dr. Gupta. Everywhere else I went they were talking about major injuries and long recovery periods.
Dr. Gupta promised to do the job with very small incisions and with very minimal bruising. To be honest I didn't believe it fully, but thought that it was worth a go.
As it turned out the whole visit was over and done with in 3 hours. It took three days by the seaside and lots of walks to recover. I needed no pain relief at all and the main bruising was from the compression garment.
I saw the difference immediately and after just one week no swelling was left and my chest is as flat and manly as any other man in the gym. My only regret is that I suffered unnecessarily for 30 years. I have purchased new t-shirts and wearing them without a baggy jumper is a joy. In my opinion Dr. Gupta is a consummate professional. The only reason why I would not use him again is because I am now totally happy with my body." *D.C., Buckinghamshire
"Before my chest reduction procedure if there was any doubts either about Dr Gupta or the procedure that I was to have then this was very soon elevated after speaking to Dr Gupta in my pre-op consultation.
Dr Gupta's friendly yet professional approach was quite refreshing. He took the time to inform me of an alternative procedure which he thought would be more suitable for me, and he explained in detail the procedure and was very honest and realistic about how the end result would look. He was taking into account my ethnic origins and considering the possible keloid scarring which is common after surgery on dark skin.
On the day of surgery my partner was even allowed to sit in on the procedure and watch the whole process. We were impressed with the facilities and friendly and efficient staff.
It's now been 3 months since my procedure and I feel much better about my chest since the surgery, more confident in my appearance and my partner thinks I'm definitely happier and smile a lot more.
As for the results I'd say I am 85-90% happy, maybe I expected too much . If I ever needed anything else like this done I wouldn't think twice about going to see Dr Gupta and his team, and would definitely recommend his services to others, he made all the difference.
I can see that you love your job and take great pride and satisfaction making your patients feel better about themselves." *S.D., West Midlands

Did I ever mention how much fun it is to create a custom bag? I love sending fabric selections and combinations back and forth. Then, in the end, when all of the fabrics come together to make my customers happy it is so rewarding. It's really the next best thing to making a tote purse for yourself.
The latest custom order I had was especially fun for me. I adore a mismatched array of fabrics. Believe it or not, there really is an art to putting a mismatched bag together. And you will see from the picture, this girl knew what she was doing! She picked out a great combination for her purse.

Ne Ni Ni in the quiz question is grammatically incorrect.
Neither is one of two things. Therefore the question in the quiz was grammatically incorrect.` I like neither the guitar, nor the violin, nor the piano` is not phrased correctly.
This question relates to:

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - U.S. cable firm Liberty Global won unconditional EU regulatory approval on Monday for its $15.8 billion takeover of Virgin Media, a deal that pits the group against Rupert Murdoch's British satellite TV operation BSkyB.
The European Commission said it did not have any competition concerns regarding the takeover, confirming a Reuters report last week.
The EU antitrust authority said this was because the companies operated cable networks in different EU countries and because of the merged group's limited market position in wholesale TV channels in Britain and Ireland.
The companies valued the deal at $15.8 billion on February 6, the day it was announced.

The FBI is searching for a man suspected of trying to contaminate food at a Whole Foods store in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
A Whole Foods employee witnessed the man pouring a liquid onto items at the prepared-food bars, according to statements from the FBI and Whole Foods.
"Out of an abundance of caution, all salad and hot food bars were immediately closed down at the store, all food was thrown out and the store team thoroughly cleaned and sanitized all food stations, equipment and serving utensils before restocking with fresh items," Whole Foods said in a statement. "All surrounding Michigan store locations have been notified of the incident."
Authorities believe that the suspect was attempting to contaminate the food, according to a statement from the FBI's Detroit division.
Preliminary tests of the liquid came back negative for harmful substances, however. WXYZ first reported on the incident.
The FBI is now asking for the public's help to identify the suspect, and says that anyone with information should call 855-324-7257.
Here are more photos of the suspect:

Far from Paris, South Florida climate talks begin in Key West
With President Barack Obama giving a nod to Miami, even a slightly exaggerated one, before world leaders in Paris, South Florida officials kicked off their own climate summit Tuesday in one of the region's most vulnerable cities: Key West.
As part of the Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact, state, county and city leaders, federal officials, scientists and environmentalists will hear the latest projections on climate-related ills over the next three days and talk about tackling sea rise expected to climb by at least six inches by 2030. The four counties that comprise the compact — Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Monroe — also plan to sign an updated version of the 6-year-old agreement.
"It's really an expression of collaboration," said Jim Murley, who was named Miami-Dade County's chief resiliency officer in October after environmentalists repeatedly complained that the county was dragging its feet.
The summit comes amid a flurry of climate-related events, including art installations, a documentary screening and local panels, pegged to the Paris talks where world leaders hope to hammer out a deal limiting carbon emissions that scientists say are fueling climate change. In a press conference Tuesday morning, Obama called the limits an "economical and security imperative."
Obama also used Miami as a key example of risks linked to climate change, repeating a claim made by former Vice President Al Gore last week during an interview on National Public Radio.
You go down to Miami and when it's flooding at high tide on a sunny day and fish are swimming through the middle of the streets, you know, that — there's a cost to that.
President Barack Obama
"As the science around climate change is more accepted, as people start realizing that even today you can put a price on the damage that climate change is doing — you know, you go down to Miami and when it's flooding at high tide on a sunny day and fish are swimming through the middle of the streets, you know, that — there's a cost to that," Obama said.
Gore, said Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine, spotted the fish on Indian Creek Drive, a state road that routinely floods during seasonal tides. In October, Gore was in South Florida following a conference he led in downtown Miami that drew more than 1,200 activists.
"It's a fact of nature when you have ocean water and sea water [on the road]...clearly you're going to get sea life on the street," Levine said.
But fish swimming on the streets is far from widespread. While Miami Beach has certainly suffered from sunny-day floods during high tides, most reports about fish swimming in the street have come from further north in Broward County. WSVN-FOX 7 reported in September that a mullet was spotted swimming in Fort Lauderdale. A member of the Miami Herald and WLRN radio's Public Insight Network reported in October that she saw fish in the streets of Hollywood during a king tide.
6 to 10The number of inches in sea rise expected by 2030
The claim, even if inaccurate, should not take away from the need for action in South Florida, Murley said, where seasonal flooding has become routine.
"One-liners get caught and then they get repeated," he said.
What often gets lost amid dire projections, he said, is the work already being done that can fly under the radar — planning needed to justify mitigation steps, hurricane protection or long-term water and sewer projects — because it can seem mundane when compared to dramatic climate effects. At last year's summit in Miami Beach, members agreed that regional universities should work together to better pool their resources. The work led to important new sea rise projections released in October that now incorporate a three-inch sea rise documented since 1992.
"While, yes, some of our vulnerabilities are highlighted, the flip side of that is we are probably one of the regions most recognized for the objective of working together," he said. "We want to keep that momentum going."
Miami Herald staff writer Patricia Mazzei contributed to this report.

Bride Left In Tears After Moving Haka Performed At Wedding
For many of us, the haka is not something we understand, but it is a war cry that shows that love and respect have no cultural boundaries.
This particular video of a New Zealand couple's wedding has been viewed over 42 million times since its release at the beginning of the year.
It shows Aaliyah and Benjamin Armstrong, who had just tied the knot, being treated to a surprise performance by the groomsmen and guests.
The men performed the haka, a traditional Maori war dance in which participants stamp their feet, stick out their tongues, slap their chests, and shout in unison.
Though it looks kind of intimidating, the haka is actually a huge sign of respect - and after a few minutes, the bride became overwhelmed and began to cry.
Aaliyah told BBC she would "blown away." "They are quite strong, the men in their family."

Moisture and temperature are key contributors to deterioration of collection holdings making low-temperature storage critical for preservation. Low temperatures range from those just below the comfort temperature for humans, i.e. approximately 20°C (68oF) to cryogenic temperatures as low as -196°C (-321oF) when using liquid nitrogen. Understanding low temperatures and how they can be achieved, as well as the relationship to moisture, is important when choosing and utilizing the optimal storage method. Facilities and equipment that provide storage at these temperatures pose challenges in design, construction, and maintenance as well as collection access. Investment in appropriate facilities requires a long-term commitment to adequate funding, and a coherent program for collection tracking and use. Use may involve sample destruction or significant modification due to exposure to temperatures outside the optimum range for preservation. The safety of those handling materials at temperatures below freezing must also be considered.
Key words: biological material; cryogenic; cryoprotectant; fluid preservative; ice core; imaging media; low-temperature storage; lyophilization

Currying the favor of bread-eaters and ale drinkers has been the province of government for at least the last 740 years. If government can't hold the line on the price of necessities, then what good is government?
Hawaii's Legislature joined the list of governments attempting to regulate the marketplace in 2002 by passing a law to cap the wholesale price of gasoline sold to retailers.
After changing the law in 2003 and 2004, the controls went into effect last year and the pump started sucking air.
Critics warned that it wasn't natural for government to control the price of goods, that competition would drive the market, not the votes on the floor of the state House, but supporters saw an easy political lay-up and hurried it into law in time for the 2002 elections.
Hawaii's senior Sen. Dan Inouye noted that "our state's legislators took a bold step." Inouye concluded that the gas cap lowered prices last year after Hurricane Katrina destroyed oil facilities in the South. Tough-talking former Gov. Ben Cayetano said, "Republican legislative leaders pontificate shamelessly that gas prices in Hawaii should be left to the competitive forces of the 'free market' when they know -- or should know -- that even the oil companies themselves agree that there is no free market."
Finally, Hawaii's Democrats used the gas cap as the blunt instrument of choice in two elections, claiming that Republicans who opposed the cap were stooges of the oil industry. The elections of 2002 and 2004 were all about promises of lower gasoline prices.
Now comes the election of 2006, after the disastrous hurricane season of 2005 and after gasoline prices went higher than a Honolulu property tax bill.
Now the Democrats are hearing footsteps. Although supporters say the Public Utilities Commission was supposed to be riding the gasoline price regulations and failed to do so, a majority in the state House want to suspend the price cap.
Last year Sen. Donna Kim, the Senate vice president, toyed with the idea of letting Gov. Linda Lingle repeal the cap if she didn't think it was working, and Lingle said she would do so in a flash -- but the idea never took hold.
Led by Reps. Joe Souki and Kirk Caldwell, House Democrats are moving this week to get out of the gas price regulation business.
The on-the-record reason is that the PUC didn't do enough, and prices would be controlled by making the oil companies report their earnings and profits. The Democrats privately fear the public sentiment is steadily growing against the gas cap.
The gas cap was about lowering prices and prices went up, so who wants more of that?
With the Democrats wavering on their signature issue, the only question left is how well Linda Lingle can hit a slow pitch.

I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again: Criminals love open home Wi-Fi networks.
They can attack your gadgets and steal your information; they can download - or upload - illegal files, and they can generally do whatever criminal activity they want. When law enforcement traces their activity, you - the router's owner - are left holding the bag.
Even if criminals don't target your Wi-Fi, what about your neighbors? They might be surfing the internet on your dime, and all you get out of it is slower internet speeds. Click here to find out if your neighbors are stealing your internet.
You really don't want either thing to happen. Fortunately, it's easy enough to keep people off your network. In fact, it only takes a few minutes.
I'll walk you through every step of the process to make sure you don't leave any hole open for someone to sneak through.
Note: These steps aren't just for setting up a new router, either. I encourage everyone to go through this process step by step to make sure your router is locked down.Next page: Let's get started

I already know the type of comments that this extreme custom bike is going to provoke. Most will not dig it. And those who do will have some difficulties understanding how it was built to remain more than a piece of art and of mechanical ingenuity, remaining a riding motorcycle (I know, with moderation…) Each year, , a.k.a. Hans Bos, designs at least one ultra radical bike. His objective is of course promotional, trying to get as much media coverage around the custom world as possible to benefit his Utretch, Netherlands based custom shop.
Looking at this contraption, most will think that a computer CAD program was used. Wrong: Bozzies is almost allergic to computers. A good sketch artist? Nope. Bozzies can't draw Mickey Mouse. So, born from his imagination, without any plan? Yes, he affirms. And the other surprising part of the story is that Bozzies didn't have many or even one major fabrication or mechanical issue during the build, leo less than one is building an average mild custom…
Whatever the immediate emotional love/hate reaction you may have, there is a long list of one-off features that will make you first scratch your head, then get your respect for the "no fear" approach of the builder. I list a few of "Real Steel" advanced tricks. A "double action" front fork, a dummy gas tank, the fuel tank (about 4.8 gallon capacity) being located inside the one-off rear rim in which 40 plates drilled with some holes keep the fuel in the right place when the wheel is spinning! And if it was enough, the huge rear wheel (300 mm tire) is multi-tasking, also hiding the battery. air ride control, ignition switch and motor management…One action braking with a 60% front, 40% rear. split. All 3 brakes (2 front, 1 in the rear) are recessed 0.118″ inside both wheels with hidden calipers. All electrical wiring and oil hoses are going through the swing arm . Fuel pump and coil are incorporated into the frame.
Surprisingly, Bozzies picked an S&S Panhead style engine yo power this high -ech bike. Transmission is Baker 6-speed. Other major one-off parts made at the shop include: all bodywork in steel, the frame, single sided swingarm, wheels, handlebars and grips, the foot mid-controls, the jockey shift with integrated motor mound, the intake air cleaner, seat, exhaust, etc… .

An emotional Theresa Charbonneau was overflowing with gratitude Thursday after the city of Windsor officially renamed a rink at the WFCU Centre after her fallen son Corporal Andrew Grenon.
Windsor Family Credit Union rink renamed to honour fallen soldier, veterans
A passionate Montreal Canadiens' fan and avid hockey player, the late Cpl. Andrew Grenon would've approved of the choice to honour his memory by naming a community rink at the WFCU Centre after him.
Grenon, of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, was the only local soldier killed during the nation's involvement in the Afghanistan conflict when he was one of three Canadian soldiers to die in a Taliban ambush Sept. 3, 2008.
"When one of the arenas was mentioned, it just couldn't be a more appropriate remembrance for Andrew," said Grenon's mother Theresa Charbonneau following the official unveiling of three plaques at the rink Thursday.
"He spent 10 years of his life playing hockey. He loved every minute of it.
"As we were preparing for last night's game, I was thinking to myself how appropriate it would be for Montreal to win the night before today. I know Andrew was sitting watching that game with us.
"It was pretty cool."
Grenon wasn't alone in being honoured for his ultimate sacrifice.
The second community rink will now be called the Corporal A.P. Grenon and Canadian Veterans Memorial Rink.
Charbonneau added a number of options were considered for the memorial, but a building filled with the joyful sounds of children struck at the heart of why Grenon was so passionate about his duty in Afghanistan.
A passion laid out in the final lines of a 2006 poem he wrote on why it was necessary to be in that wartorn country.
"I fight because I'm a soldier," Grenon wrote. "I fight because I'm ordered.
"I fight, so my children won't have to."
As the tarps came off the plaques, an emotional Charbonneau ran her hand over her son's name as tears filled her eyes. Windsor mayor Eddie Francis also gave the family a replica plaque to take home.
"I just didn't expect that (huge sign on the end wall of the rink above the scoreboard)," said Charbonneau, who was accompanied by her husband Michael and son Matthew at the ceremony. "It's overwhelming.
"Andrew is smiling his biggest smile, I know. For the city to remember him, period, and for the city to name a hockey rink (after him) that he spent so many happy hours on is just so fitting.
"We're so grateful."
Matthew Charbonneau said he hoped by having the memorial in so public a place, it will give people a moment's pause to think about all veterans.
"I'm glad my brother's sacrifice and the sacrifices made by all Canadian veterans are being recognized formally at this place where many people will come and be given opportunities to reflect on what Canadian veterans have done," Matthew Charbonneau said.
Theresa Charbonneau said the tribute is the continuation of the big embrace her family has felt from the community since her son's death.
"Windsor is a phenomenal city," Charbonneau said. "It was proven to us at Andrew's funeral that week.
"In the 51/2 years that have gone by, we still get remembered. We still get asked about Andrew.
"The hurt doesn't go away; it's just a little less acute."
In addition to the family and the city dignitaries in attendance, there were several officials from the Canadian military and veteran groups present.
Honorary Colonel Hardy Wheeler of the Essex and Kent Scottish regiment said such memorials carry great significance for veterans.
Wheeler commended the city for being the first in Canada to have the dates of the Afghan campaign already etched on Windsor's cenotaph.
"It's important for soldiers because we're told to go and all we ask in return is a thank you," Wheeler said. "The naming of this rink, the cenotaph and the proposed monument going into Reaume Park are all civic thank yous. It's not lost on us, that's for sure."

A few months ago I prototyped a PCB for housing a Compute Module 3 for a customer project. It was a pretty simple two-layer board which uses the official Raspberry Pi Foundation touchscreen as a display. After a successful pilot with the end customer we contracted a firm to produce a more professional four-layer board for large scale production.
Unfortunately, with the first few samples of the new board none work with the touchscreen. We've verified that the trace routing is the same and that the touchscreen driver board is receiving power. The design firm have verified that there is an initial burst of activity on the I2C bus but don't know what they should be expecting to see so don't know if the driver board is responding correctly (or at all?).
On the CM3 side the rpi_ft5406 driver is never loaded and if I modprobe it manually the driver loads but the touchscreen remains inert. There are no references to "ft" in dmesg. The dt-blob.bin is use is the "Display Only" variant taken from: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... display.md OS image is Raspbian Stretch Lite.
The PCB doesn't include any pullup resistors as the CMIO instructions don't include any. I couldn't find any in the CM3 schematics, are there a a pair somewhere in the touchscreen driver board? Should we have added some?
The only connection in between the CM3 and the touchscreen is the bundled flex connector and about 4cm of PCB trace. Should we have resistors in serial?
Are there other electrical considerations we should be thinking about? Is there documentation somewhere which describes what the initial negotiation with the touchscreen should look like? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much,
P.S., I've swapped out multiple touchscreens, connectors and CM3s. Each configuration works fine with the prototype board, but not the new one. I've also run continuity checks from the FPC connector at the touchscreen end to the relevant pins on the CM3's SO-DIMM connector to rule out things like flaky cabling or soldering. I've also tried with several of the new PCBs so can probably rule out a faulty individual.

There's no shortage of camera apps on Android, with multiple options covering almost every niche imaginable. But sometimes one breaks through the noise with impressive filters or awesome features to wow you.
Pencil Camera HD is one such app. Similar to the popular Paper Camera, it applies sketch-like, painting-style, or texture-overlay filters to your photos and videos, to sometimes-incredible results. Let's take a look.
Like the article? You should subscribe and follow us on twitter.
Exceptional Effects
Pencil Camera HD supports 15 effects, each with a semi-descriptive name such as Water Color, Crayon'o'Matic, Hipster Culture, Life On Mars, Pink Glasses, or Soft Pencil. They cover a wide range of colors and aesthetic styles, and are mostly unique as far as I've seen — there's little overlap in these filters and those found in rival apps.
Some, like Frozen or Rumpled Paper, tend to dominate an image, putting the photo part very much into the background, while others, like Wooden Floor or Canvas, offer more subtle toning and grain effects. You'll have to experiment to see what works best in different situations.
You can change the filter and fine-tune its settings either before or after you take a photo. There are three sliders to toy with on each filter: Brightness, Contrast, and Contour. The first of these is a straightforward light/dark adjustment. Contrast seems to be a combination of saturation, exposure, and traditional contrast controls. Contour relates to the thickness and sharpness of lines and edges.
Adjusting these three sliders affords tremendous control over the application of a filter, although more serious photographers will still feel sorely limited — especially by the lack of control over things like depth of field and focal point.
The good news, though, is that photos can be imported from your Gallery app — which means Pencil Camera HD will happily apply its filters to any picture you desire. It'll save a new copy for your edited version, too, preserving the original.
You don't even need to save it to share with your friends and family, though. There's a little share button in the bottom left that'll let you send the image onto any apps that can handle JPEGs, all ready to be shared with the world.
Quirky Videos
A picture may tell a thousand words, but sometimes only a video will suffice. Pencil Camera HD lets you get creative here, too, with all of its filters available for the camcorder mode. Pick your filter, hit the red record button, and enjoy. It's easy and fun, although it'd be nice to have some more control over things like quality, exposure, and frame rate.
Unfortunately my phone doesn't seem to cope too well with the app's video recording, owing I expect to its age — LG's Optimus 2X was the first smartphone with a dual-core processor, originally released back in early 2011. If you have a high-end device, phone or tablet, released since then, you should be fine. I advise downloading Pencil Camera HD Lite first, though, to test performance and stability of both the photo and video functionality.
Get Inspired
My favorite feature is activated by pressing the button in the top right of the screen. It's a slideshow — doesn't sound very exciting, right? But this slideshow takes the pictures stored on your phone and randomly applies the Pencil Camera HD filters to them, one photo after another.
They call it Get Inspired, but it also functions as both a great digital photo frame and a trip down memory lane. Watch and smile as it pulls out photos you'd forgotten were on there, and reinvents them as stylish artwork. If you're in the habit of regularly pruning your photo library, this will obviously be less impressive, but prepare to be surprised if there are two or three years of photos in the Gallery.
It's a shame, actually, that these Get Inspired renditions can't be saved. On so many occasions I would have loved to just tap on the picture to save a copy with the filter settings that made it look like that. Instead, if I really liked it, I had to find the original picture in question and puzzle out the correct settings to give its cool makeover some permanence.
Just For Fun
Pencil Camera HD falls down, like most novelty-appeal camera and photo-editing apps, when it comes time to get serious. I already touched on my complaints about a lack of further options, but it's a professional's nightmare and an amateur's delight.
The app's filters can make a bad photo look like a gorgeous painting or mixed-media artwork, but it frustratingly doesn't include a portrait mode or any advanced settings.
That said, if you like to get creative with your photos without resorting to hours upon hours of editing in Photoshop, you're likely to have a great time with Pencil Camera HD. It may be lacking extras, but the app makes up for its simplicity with fantastic artistic filters and ease of use.
If you're a Paper Camera user eager for more filters, Pencil Camera HD's a no-brainer — it's basically the same thing, with a different interface and 15 all-new effects. For everyone else, this is your chance to feel like an artist without going to the trouble of actually creating something original.
A camera app with fun and artistic filters for both photos and videos.

At first, there were just three or four, but after hatching babies, there are now 16.
They 'help me weed' the field.
And work under the oak tree. You can see our fenced orchard in the background. They even find their way in there. I am sure they do some cleaning up.
We have a bush in the backyard. We were going to take it out; it has thorns on the branches and is not a very pleasant site. And then we saw this:
These turkeys jump into the bush and eat the berries. Pretty funny. The younger ones can balance on the small branches. The older ones wait on the ground for berries to drop. Yes, we will be keeping the 'turkey bush'.
These turkeys have a routine they follow. You can count on them to be in the field at least once a day, under the oak tree and turkey bush twice a day... and in the tree in the morning.
Tree? What tree? We were feeding the chickens early one morning and saw this! It's like we were living in a Dr. Seuss book.
Sixteen turkeys fly up into a HUGE cypress tree. They just hang out, hopping from one limb to another. They aren't looking for food. Not hiding from predators. We have now seen them do this every morning, so it's part of their routine. Why a tree? Are they playing? Who knows what goes on in the mind of a turkey!
And then, they fly down, just like it was nothing... and are on their way again.

Of the many carefully constructed and nurtured convictions that were shattered during the financial crisis and recession of the recent past, one of the most unnerving was the fact that a degree from a good university gets you a job by default.
As many college grads struggled to find full time employment in the aftermath of the economic collapse of 2008-10, many found that their best option was to seek paid (or even unpaid) internships that gave them a chance to sharpen their skills, objectives and also establish relationships with potential future employers.
However, internships are not just a recession-weathering tool; their benefits are far too concrete and much more enduring. In a recent feature, the U.S. News & World Report points out that with college graduation rates growing in leaps, it would be wise, if not essential, for undergraduate college students to differentiate themselves from their peers by taking some extra, proactive measures. Securing and serving at least one internship before graduation could be an extremely effective one in this regard.
We take a look here at the list of top 5 national universities in terms of the proportion of graduates in 2008-09 who had internship experience:
University of Pennsylvania
Right at the top, the University of Pennsylvania claims that 90 per cent of its 2831 graduating students in 2008-09 completed at least one internship before they graduated. The University has 12 schools of which four offer undergraduate degrees. The career services office provides extensive support and exclusive resources for students scouting for internships, such as listings of opportunities, help with application, letters of recommendation etc.
A recent initiative in this regard has been the launch of the Penn Internship Network (PIN), which is a listing of Penn students who have volunteered to speak with others about their summer internships. Existing students may call or e-mail the volunteers to learn more about their experiences, how to apply, etc. and could receive helpful information and advice.
The Colorado School of Mines
A public engineering and applied sciences university in Golden, Colorado, the School of Mines specializes in the geo-sciences. Of the 620 Bachelor's degrees awarded in the year 2008-09, 84 per cent went to students with internship experience. Mines alumni (some of the most notable among whom are Andrew Swiger, senior vice president of Exxon Mobil Corporation, and Mari Angeles Major-Sosias, vice president of AREVA's International Network) are known to command some of the highest starting salaries in the country.
Career Services at Mines provides students with an abundance of resources which includes access to valuable internship opportunities. Internship positions are developed through cooperative efforts among the student, the employer, and the Career Center to give the student the opportunity to gain "hands-on-experience" in their desired field of employment prior to graduation. All relevant position descriptions are posted on the School's job-search portal DiggerNet. The School also publishes a database of average internship salaries according to chosen majors.
American University
A private university located in the Washington D.C. area, the University is expectedly a playground for the politically and socially oriented. It has six schools offering education in the arts & sciences, business, public affairs, international service, communication and law. Location is undoubtedly the foremost advantage offered by the school, matched by its international linkages and engagement - from Australia to Paris to Tajikistan. Of the 1384 awarded Bachelor's degrees in 2008-09, 81 per cent graduated with internship experience.
The Career Center thrives on facilitating connections between students and employers and is adept in helping students identify and maximize meaningful internships. The location-advantage and international associations come into play here as well.
Seton Hall University, New Jersey
Located just 14 miles from the financial capital of New York, Seton Hall University at New Jersey is home to seven schools that offer undergraduate degrees. 76 per cent of its 1017 Bachelor's awardees in 2008-09 reportedly had some internship experience.
Internships are a highly valued form of career-based learning at Seton Hall and the Career Center manages a large and diverse internship program. The Center offers an online Internship Tutorial, providing an overview of expectations of all students throughout the Internship process, which includes searching for an Internship, interviewing, and working as an intern. The tutorial contains information regarding the process and intern criteria, as well as all required forms. Listings of positions are also available.
Duke University
Durham North Carolina-based Duke University is a private institution again with 10 schools and colleges, four of which serve both undergraduate students. Of the 1625 students who graduated from these with Bachelor's degrees, 75 per cent are said to have completed one or more internships during their course of study.
Duke is part of the iNet Internship Network, which is an internship posting database shared by Georgetown, MIT, Northwestern, Rice, Stanford, NYU, University of Pennsylvania, Yale.
The Career Center also occasionally hosts a special Internship Spotlight Series, each session in which highlights a specific industry or set of related industries to pursue internships in. It is open to all students who are interested and gives them an opportunity to hear from fellow students who have had fantastic summer experiences in a wide range of career fields. This imparts knowledge of the kinds of internships available and the many successful strategies for obtaining them. Career Center staff moderate these casual and conversational panel discussions.

The Washerman's Donkey
about the contributors
The Washerman's Donkey
An Urdu Story by Kausar Ali
Haroon was a little boy who lived in a small village outside Karachi: the largest city and seaport of Pakistan. Haroon went to a small primary school in the village which was about a mile away from his house. His classroom was very spacious with long mats made of jute spread across the floor in straight lines. The children sat on these mats facing the blackboard and the teacher. There were no chairs or desks for the children, only one desk at the head of the room which was used by the teacher. There was also a cupboard to one side where the teacher kept the children's exercise books. Apart from these few things, there was no other furniture. This was quite usual in a small village school in the old days.
Haroon was a good boy who respected his elders, his parents, and his teachers. He would get up very early each morning in order to get ready, eat his breakfast, and start off on the long journey through the fields, arriving at the school well before time. He worked hard and always finished his schoolwork. And he always remembered his parent's advice about never putting off today's work until tomorrow.
During break time, Haroon played Kabaddi in the playground with his friends. This is a popular sport among young people in the countryside and villages of Pakistan and Haroon enjoyed the game very much.
There was also a washerman named Taju who lived in Haroon's neighbourhood. Taju owned a frail looking donkey, and every week he would ride that donkey to the nearest town and collect bundles of dirty clothes from the people who lived there. Then he would ride his donkey to the riverside where he would wash the clothes.
Taju had a bad habit of hitting the poor donkey's legs with a long stick whilst riding. The donkey would make a terrible wailing sound, 'dei hoon, dei hoon!' while carrying Taju and the heavy bundles of clothes. In the evening, Taju rode back home with the bundles of washed clothes, always hitting the poor donkey's legs with his stick along the way.
Haroon would often hear this terrible wailing sound as the washerman passed by, and the young boy could not sleep for worrying about the poor donkey.
In the mornings too, on his way to school, Haroon would see the washerman riding towards the town with his bundles of clean clothes, always hitting the poor donkey with the long stick. The young boy would often think long and hard about how to save the donkey from Taju's beatings, but he could never come up with a plan.
This went on for a long time. The donkey grew old and frail. Taju also became old and frail like his donkey, and this meant that the washerman was not able to collect as many bundles of clothes from the town. It also meant that he became poorer still and found it harder and harder to look after his donkey. Taju started giving the donkey left-over food instead of fresh grass, and his habit of using the long stick did not change.
As it happened, Haroon passed his primary school final exam with the highest marks in his class. The headmaster presented him with a certificate along with a special prize. Haroon became very popular in the village and his parents were delighted and proud of their son. To celebrate his success and hard work, Haroon's parents promised that they would buy him a gift of his own choosing.
That night, when the young boy went to his room to sleep, the window was open and he could hear the poor donkey wailing in the distance… 'dei hoon, dei hoon!' And so Haroon decided then and there that he would ask his father to buy Taju's donkey from him. He was sure that his father would agree, but feared that the old washerman might say no.
The next day, when Haroon asked if he might buy Taju's donkey, his father was very surprised at the unusual request. He said, 'Son, what is so special about Taju's donkey? You can have any animal you like as a pet.'
But Haroon said, 'No father, I would prefer to have Taju's donkey.'
Then the young boy told his father the whole story about how Taju would hit his donkey with the long stick, how he made it carry heavy bundles of clothes and feed it only leftover food instead of fresh grass. Haroon explained to his father how he wanted to save the poor donkey from such cruelty. After hearing the story, Haroon's father agreed to buy the old donkey for his son.
And so, early the next morning, Haroon and his father went to see Taju and asked the washerman if they could buy his donkey.
Taju was very surprised at this request. Then he thought about how old and frail his donkey had grown, and how difficult it had become to feed and take care of. And so, after haggling for a good price, Taju agreed to sell his old donkey to the father and son.
Haroon and his father brought the donkey home with them and put it in the large courtyard at the back of their house. They also gave the old donkey fresh grass to eat and promised that it would no longer have to carry the bundles of heavy clothes or be hit with the long stick.
Haroon always made sure to look after the donkey and soon it grew strong and healthy even though it was still quite old. The young boy was very pleased because he could see how happy the donkey was in its new home. And now Haroon would never have to hear the terrible wailing sounds, ever again.

Characters: Yokoyama Yu, Maruyama Ryuhei
Location: Maruyama's apartment
Rating: NC-17/R
Summary: incomplete
Warnings: none yet
Yoko walked tiredly to Maru's, wondering what his friend would do once he told him what had happened. Would he react like Ryo had done and punch him, then throw him out? Would he actually listen to what Yoko had to say? There was really only one way to find out.
Part of himself wondered why he was going to Maru for this, but who else could he turn to? Maru was the most understanding next to Yasu, and Yasu...well. Yoko knew that Yasu had a soft spot for Ohkura and would no doubt be as upset as Ryo, if not more so. Why had he kissed Ohkura, even with the thought that he was slightly tipsy, let alone drunk enough to confuse him for Ryo. Hina was going to be pissed, that was for sure.
Finally Yoko arrived at Maru's and buzzed to be let in.

Re: The next morning...
Maru hugged Yoko tight as they lay there, and let his hands run up and down his back, patting him softly whenever he could feel a cought making its way to the other ones troat. "But if you steal it off me, then my hair won't smell like this anymore~" he chuckled happily against Yoko's skin, his lips from time to time placing small butterfly kisses on the skin he could reach.

Re: The next morning...
"Mmmmm, that is a problem," Yoko whispered, his face still in Maru's hair. Content to stay like this, he enjoyed the feather-light kisses Maru was giving him, an appreciative moan escaping him a few times.
"If you keep doing that...."
He left it up to Maru's imagination as to what would happen if he kept kissing him like that and making his body heat up even more than it already was, his head starting to hurt. It was this part of being sick that he hated the most and it irritated him. Closing his eyes, he let himself drift off to sleep, happy to let Maru keep doing whatever he wanted to him; it kept his mind off the cold.

Re: The next morning...
"..then I'll continue when you feel better again~" he whispered and placed a last gently kiss on the soft skin and he then let himself rest more, his eyes closing and his body slowly growing heavier in Yoko's arms.
"Ne Kimichan.." he muttered out already half asleep, more as a statement to himself as he was not sure that Yoko was still awake to hear it "when we wake up again.. I'll make you something real delicious to eat.."

Solder Powder Grading
The Finex Separator™ is the ideal machine for solder powder grading. With its unique rubber suspension system this machine is able to accurately grade materials on up to five fractions in one operation. Solder powder grading is notoriously difficult to screen effectively and therefore to compliment the sieve, a Russell Vibrasonic® Deblinding System was installed onto the meshes to prevent the solder from blocking the mesh. With Vibrasonics, the mesh is kept continuously clear ensuring the sieve can run without interruption.
The Finex Separator™ can accurately grade materials on up to five fractions in one operation. Installed with the Russell Vibrasonic® Deblinding System, solder powder grading can be effectively screened without mesh blockage.

Austin Beerworks to host next pop-up of the Brewer's Table
The upcoming restaurant-brewery The Brewer's Table has been hosting pop-ups in Austin and around the country, but those have mainly provided early tastes of what the food will be.
Now, beer lovers can also get a taste of the boozy side of the business.
On Feb. 19, the newly opened Austin Beerworks taproom is playing host to The Brewer's Table team, which includes owner Jake Maddux, executive chef Zach Hunter (previously of Fixe) and head brewer Drew Durish (formerly of Live Oak Brewing). At the afternoon tasting, they'll have samples of The Brewer's Table's signature beer and a small selection of bar snacks.
The casual event is in contrast to previous pop-ups at local restaurants Franklin Barbecue and Olamaie, which offered full sit-down meals for people to try.
This time, The Brewer's Table will have free pours of their flagship brew, the Common Lager, designed by Durish but brewed for the pop-up by the Austin Beerworks team. Pair the beer with complimentary bites like beer nuts, made with candied chickpeas, puffed grains and seeds, chile and black lime.
Additional Austin Beerworks beers will also be available for purchase.
Here's the full menu of bar bites that Austinites will eventually enjoy at The Brewer's Table, which is opening this year at 4715 E. Fifth St. Owner Maddux has envisioned the space to have wood-fermented beers and seasonally minded food that will have complementary flavors with the drinks.
- Beer nuts
- Smoked fish and cauliflower dip with Meyer lemon, salt and vinegar beer chips
- Rye cured chicken rillette with root vegetable escabeche and sourdough rye bread
- Beer grain falafel with farmer's cheese and hop leaf harissa
The pop-up runs from 1 to 4 p.m. on Feb. 19. To RSVP, visit The Brewer's Table's event page on Facebook.

Katie and her husband Richard are artists
who met at Art Center in LA about 20 years ago.
Richard is an absolute genius, and has
distinguished himself with work on movies (Alladin)
and comuter games (Riven) and much more
than I could list here.
Katie is currently doing work on the TV animation
series Squirrel Boy and has also done Duckman.
One of my most prized possessions is a t-shirt
and a painting of a frisbee flying over the beach,
an original, which she made for me many years ago.
Their daughter Helen, only 15, has her own radio show!
Last night, Richard prepared a fabulous meal,
salmon, mashed potatoes, asparagus,
all done to the highest level of perfection of his artistry.
I think I have never had a tastier meal!
It was a great time, with lots of stories by/about
all the guests and family.
It seems that the planets aligned to bring us together.
Katie's sister Maggie was visiting with her daughter,
and Richard's brother Tom and new bride were here for a visit
on their way to a tour of the USA on his Harley
which he shipped over from his home in Hawai'i.
This morning it had it's first real personal attention
in 2500 miles, tended to by the guys at
Gentle Touch Hand Wash, just a few blocks from the hotel.
With all the road-schmutz removed, I noticed a few more
of the dings from the debris torrent we suffered in Canada.
The windshield is definitely screwed with pits galore.
But, after a thorough cleaning, it looks WOW!!
I am not going to get tired of that color.
In the sun, it really comes alive with highlights!
Checked out the action at McQ's Billiards and Sports Bar,
and the women's qualifier for the WPBA tour.
Watched them for an hour or two,
and I could see them make some of the mistakes I make.
Sure is a lot easier watching than competing!
Then I got into a set with Sean,
the guy who beat me at the Jillian's Seattle tournament.
(He was here with his wife Susie who was in the qualifier.)
I was really looking forward to playing Sean again,
to show him, and me, that I could shoot better than I did.
He started off good, and I was slow to get going,
and soon Sean had me down several games in a race to 7,
but I hung in there and won the set 7-5.
Needless to say, I was feeling great about that.
One of Sean's friends, Dan, was waiting for winners,
so I played him a race to 5 and won that set too.
Fast Mikie rules the day!
But then I started being Mr. Nice Guy,
socializing with Sean and Dan,
and you know what happens when I start talking:
I lose focus, and start missing shots.
By the way, Sean Gray is a tobacco chewing
Ph.D. in biochemistry, working on a cure for AIDS.
But, hey, let's remember the bright spot of the day...
I got even with Sean, in a hard-fought come-from-behind victory,
and then beat his buddy, who is the same speed as Sean,
both A-level players.
I really couldn't ask for more than that!
The temperature at 6:30PM was 103 degrees. Ouch!
The pool hall was the perfect place to be today.
Tonight, when it cools down,
I'll celebrate with another great meal
in the company of friends.
Life is good.

1) Do I need to know how to communicate or work with people on the autism spectrum?
Aspiritech project leaders understand how business works, and Aspiritech manages any accommodations for our Test Engineers and QA Analysts. Clients do not need to interact directly with our testing team; however, after getting to know them and appreciating their skills, they often prefer to do so. Our tracking tool allows our clients to send an instant message to a specific analyst and get an (almost) immediate response.
2) Will I have to build detailed test cases for Aspiritech's QA Analysts?
Aspiritech's QA Analysts don't require detailed test plans. We take pride in the fact that we can understand the software and test it without detailed steps. In fact, we can develop a test plan for you along with writing quality test cases.
3) Why is Aspiritech a non-profit corporation?
Our service is business-driven, competitively priced and delivered. We provide substantial value to our clients and consistently exceed expectations. Our nonprofit status enables tax deductible contributions which support our training programs, autism specialists and accommodations to ensure the optimal performance of our testing staff.
4) Will using Aspiritech take longer than outsourcing to traditional vendors?
Quite the contrary, Aspiritech QA Analysts learn quickly, are experienced in testing a diverse array of technologies, and are more efficient due to their innate ability to focus for long periods of time. We don't waste our clients' time "around the water cooler."
5) Can Aspiritech Test Engineers and QA Analysts work at the client's site?
Yes, we can do it with some accommodations.
6) Who assures the quality of the work?
Experienced employees and autism specialists oversee the testing process to ensure that the work proceeds efficiently.
7) Which platforms do we support?
Aspiritech supports quality assurance for websites and web apps on all the major browsers for Windows XP, 7 and 8 (IE6, 7, 8, 9, 10), Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari on PC, Linux and Macintosh. Aspiritech also supports mobile quality assurance for websites and apps all the major mobile devices such as Android and iOS based tablets and phones.
8) What makes some people on the autism spectrum excel in QA and software testing?
Aspiritech Test Engineers and QA Analysts all share a form of autism that is characterized by distinctive talents along with varying degrees of social difficulties. More details can be found on our We explain this in detail under the Aspiritech Test Engineers & QA Analysts page.
9) I'd like to explore how Aspiritech can meet my company's needs?
Contact Moshe Weitzberg at firstname.lastname@example.com or board member and business advisor Brad Cohen, email@example.com or call us directly at (312) 945-TEST (8378).
10) How does the initial engagement model with Aspiritech work?
The initial engagement involves information exchange about the required services, security, and tracking/communication tools. The second step involves signing a mutual NDA, SOW and often also an MSA. The actual education/presentation of the project is done via teleconferencing or at the client's site.
11) Security
Aspiritech offers a state-of-the-art Cisco security router and static IP. Some companies provide their own hardware. Rarely, customers send their own security expert to set up a secure channel. Most companies are comfortable with VPN and/or static IP.
