Cut off all my hair last night. I think it looks pretty decent.

Beard too????

 

Nope, just the head hair. Beard is going strong, no worries.

It snowed for the first time here on campus this year. Just a couple inches, but it was enough for hundreds of people to go outside and have a mass snowball fight at nighttime. I'm soaked and exhausted, but it was fantastic.

Yesterday me and my girlfriend "celebrated" our 9 month ''anniversary'' which is ironically also 4 years when we first started dating. Went for dinner at some Italian restaurant. Went for a walk in one of the parks, got some ice cream, then went back to her house for a movie. Can't believe it's been this long.

Also, today marks the 4th month since the last time i smoked weed. It's been a lot easier than i thought. My friends obviously still smoke, so i'm often in company of people who smoke, but i really feel no desire to do it anymore.

Had my friend's funeral on Wed. His mum was pretty much balling her eyes out whenever she wasn't speaking. His dad seemed fine until he spoke, his hands were shaking, but then he calmed down a bit. When the coffin was driven off, his dad just broke down. It was the saddest thing I've witnessed, everyone was crying, and I couldn't even force myself to. It just really hit me hard. It's one thing when I see people feeling something I'm struggling to, it's just plain awful that when I can't imitate it. Over the weekend, however, I helped move things between two rooms, including a piano, which got stuck on carpet at one point and the other person had to vault the keys to be able to help get it unstuck, as it was in a doorway at the time. Next time it needs to be moved, I plan on being in a different country.

 

[hide=Drama, drama, drama]Me and my GF's dad got in a bit of a heated situation yesterday (again).

I went to her house at around 2PM. I helped her prepare dinner for later that night (lasagna). We left the dirty dishes in the sink (only 4 things), because we had to leave to go pick something up (in quite a rush). We got back around 3:30PM and her dad was busy in the kitchen washing the dishes and cleaning. 

We went to her room and starting watching a movie. About 15 minutes later her mom gets home from work and the first thing her dad says, as he opens the front door for her, "Tell your daughter to wash her own dishes. I don't want to come home and slog over dirty dishes". No "Hello", "Hi", "How was work". Nothing. She's barely set foot in her house and she's already being yelled at.

Last week she had to spend a day in Hospital because she had high blood pressure and they didn't want to release her.

We kind of just sat in her room and tried to ignore the yelling that them proceeded. After about 5 minutes of yelling my GF couldn't take it anymore so she went into the living room to tell them to shut the [bleep] up. Her dad... my god... It was like listening to a 13 year old boy arguing. I don't even know how to describe it, but he would keep going on and on and on forever even after she (his wife) stopped listening to her.

So anyway, my GF goes to the living room and tells him to stop yelling at her like she's a dog. He tells her to "Shut your [bleep]ing mouth. I don't want to clean your shit after being out the whole day."

Okay... this is about where i snapped.

I went to the living room, told him to calm down. It was 4 dishes, and the reason we left it was because we had to leave in a hurry. We planned on cleaning it when we got back home, like we always do. He told me to "Shut your [bleep]ing mouth and go back to her room, this has nothing to do with you".

I could feel my blood getting slightly warmer. I told him again to calm down, it's not a big deal.

He told me that after a long day out the last thing he wants to do is clean the dishes and clean the house.

"A long day out? What the [bleep] are you doing out of the house anyway? You don't have a job, and you can't be bothered looking for a job. It's to easy for you to beg family for money, and if that fails you beg your daughter for money. You can't support your kids, you can't support your wife, and you can't even support yourself. You're killing your wife with your constant fighting. Your house is a [bleep]ing mess. I feel dirty just looking at your kitchen. Your oven, stone and microwave oven looks like someone took a shit on it, 5 years ago, and didn't bother cleaning it. Your kitchen walls are layered with grease and dirt, and there's always dirty dishes standing around. I make a point of it to always wear at least socks when i'm here, because if your kitchen is this dirty i don't want to know what's hiding in the rest of the house.

I tried my best to help you get a job (i actually got an issue he had sorted out, and got him an interview that he never showed up for) and you spat in my face by never even showing up for the interview. You do nothing all day except spend money you don't have and have no right to spend in the first place".

I wanted to continue but at this point i think i got to him, as he grabber me by the neck. I look him right in the eyes and taunted him. I told him to hit me, and he would be on the next flight back to Pakistan, as i would make sure he get's deported (which would actually be extremely easy in this situation). He let go of me, and knowing that i had just "won the battle" i told him to either shut his mouth and behave like an adult, and treat his family that's been supporting his worthless ass for the last 4 years with the respect they deserve, or i'm calling the cops for attempted assault and he can spend a few days thinking things in a jail cell.

My GF and her mom were still standing there, in silence. They had really no idea what to say. This is the second time in like a month that something like this has happened between the two of us. He knows me well by now, and he knows i don't make threats when it comes to my GF. He knows that i have no issue doing whatever i can to get him deported. My GF and her mom knows this too, and by now they are so fed up with his shit that they can't be bothered with him either. But again, due to some stupid sponsorship laws here, he is their only hope at staying in the country for now.

So anyway, he stood there silent looking at me for a few seconds, and i kept my gaze. He turned around and walked to his bedroom like a child that just got grounded, muttering to himself.

I turned to my GF and her mom, apologized for my behavior and told them that if he ever so much as raises his voice at anything or anyone in that house (whether it's at the TV during a sports game, the cat, or either of them, heck even if he falls and breaks a leg and cries out in pain) i want them to call me and i'll be over to take care of it. I said this loud enough for him to hear.

 

I felt like i needed to get a drink after all of this. All the yelling had given me a headache so we just went to a hotel close by and had something to drink. When we got back about an hour later he was still in his room, and her mom was watching TV. 

We spent the rest of the night in her bedroom watching movies and stuff, and things outside were completely silent.

 

Today at around 4PM i get a text from her mom saying she came home and the house was cleaner than it had ever been. The oven and stove looked like they were new, the floors were so clean she could see her face it in, and on top of that her husband apologized (something he hasn't done in 3 years apparently). He didn't raise his voice once, in fact he didn't really say much in general. So she wanted to thank me for scaring him straight.

 

I felt really bad (not for him, but for the situation) at first, because i hate being disrespectful to other people. I have always been as respectable as i could to any person i meet in real life. But this guy just has a way of getting me in a bad mood. I'm not saying what i did was right, i'm not saying it was wrong either. I'm not happy about it, but i'm not upset either. It had to be done, and it had to be done in the most disrespectful manner possible. But i still feel bad...[/hide]

 

On a happier note... Yesterday morning i finally got my new car. Have been waiting for it for about 9 weeks now. It was a long wait, but well worth it. 

It's been about 2 and a half years since i last owned a Mustang, and never thought i'd get one again. But i'm happy i did. She's gorgeous.

 

Actually, it'd be battery he'd be arrested for, assault is the threat of violence, battery is once physical contact occurs. Depending on his visa, it could be a deportable offence, too.

 

Got the BSOD on my PC last night. Scared the shit out of me. I managed to back up everything really quick and then run a full scan and a disk check. Also, because Windows seemed to be hinting that it was because my hard drive couldn't be read for a moment, I swapped out the SATA cable for a different one in case that was affecting anything. It's running fine now, and I'm not as concerned. If I have time this weekend, I may do a complete reinstall. If my hard drive goes kaputz, I'll just buy a WD Black this time and hope its better. Honestly, I'd rather have the problem be the $60 hard drive than the motherboard or something else.

 

Unless you're running a server, don't buy a WD Black, or Red (the quieter Black). Get a Blue. Hitachi also seem to be good with failures, but their HD business seems to have been recently purchased by WD anyway. Seagate are basically the consumer HDD kings with their Barracuda line, just don't go with them for servers.

Furah, Sounds like how I felt at my friends funeral last May. Except I got a little drunk the night before the funeral and cried for like 3 hours. I dont think I had the hydration left to cry during the service. It was also open casket which freaked me out. And everyone kept saying "its okay" like anything about a beautiful 21 year old girl killing herself is [bleep]ing okay.

 

But yeah. Grief is weird.

Woke up to find my aunt sitting at the desk... about an hour after she should have left for work. Apparently she had a flat tire and had called a tow truck, and was ultimately told it could be up to 2 hours due to high volume of calls. She called at just after 9, they showed up at about 12:15. After she leaves, there comes a series of knocks on the door. I ignore them, despite the fact it was at semi-regular intervals for about 2 hours. If I want to talk to somebody, they are somebody who will either walk in (with or without a courtesy knock; mostly family) or call ahead (friends and the like).

 

Eventually my mom and sister show up, and my mom never leaves a knocked-upon door unanswered. It turns out the flat tire was a one of 4 to have happened in our parking lot... which tends to hold 4 cars during the weekend. Somebody slashed a tire on every car last night and the police won't do anything until we file a formal complaint... online.

 

To make matters worse, my mom then allowed the neighbour entry to the house, which might not seem too bad to some of you... but you haven't met my neighbours. Overall, not a great day.

Finally got my desk organised and looking pretty. Now to see how long I can keep it this way. Best guess is until my gf is next over.

I don't think they understand scientists. It's like when people talk about alternative medicine. If it was proven to work it'd be called medicine, and sold by companies. If they can sell you bottled water from your local municipal supply for a few dollars per bottle (I'm on water tank and if it runs out it's $100 for a truck to deliver 20,000L), they can sell you healing herbs for an arm and a leg. I mean, if you could prove cannabis to be profitable for pharmaceutical companies, they'd be selling that alongside their current medicines.

That's not true. If you're taking the view that pharmaceutical companies are entirely motivated by money and not by saving lives, then the medicine that's going to cost more is going to be the one they promote. It'd be tough to sell fish oil at the same price as a round of chemotherapy (that's not a real example, but from what my dad has told me, a lot of alternative medicine cancer cures are around that price range). The problem is, these are things that already have established pricing, and those prices just don't compare to the prices of current medicines.

 

With your water example, you're not necessarily paying for the extra water, you're paying for the societal damage when you use a lot more water than the expected per household allotment, since water is kind of a precious commodity nowadays.

 

Edit: This is definitely not a view I entirely share, since I don't believe that pharmaceutical companies are entirely motivated by greed, but that's the gist of the argument anyway.

My life has been great as of late. One cool thing that has happened as of late is that my girl friend and I are starting to plan a future together. Saving money together so we can try and move out by the end of this year. I can honestly say she is the one I want to marry once the time is right. Haven't been this happy in a long LONG time.

I'm not saying they're entirely motivated by money, but once the company gets large that becomes the main focus, were it no already. Being the first, if not only, big player to be selling working 'alternative medicine' would put them on a massive playing field with what would be a completely untapped market. From what I've seen alternative medicine going for, even at the established price they'd be making huge profits. Added on to that, they could provide you with cancer-curing fish oil, with 3x the ingredient that fights cancer, at only 10x the price! The patented formula makes it more powerful than taking 10x the fish oil, so at the end of the day you're coming out ahead. Oh, I don't know about your country, but in mine pharmaceutical companies like to prey on new doctors giving them medicine cheap or free, so that as soon as they see them working, they'll only recommend that brand, even if there could be a better brand out there. They can even not allow for brand substitutions.

My issue with what I am going to call conventional medicine would be that most of the funding comes from profit oriented groups. If the companies don't think they can make a profit, they aren't motivated to fund research in the first place. I'm not saying there isn't a fantastic amount of bull flying under the alternative medicine. What I will say is that in the years after being diagnosed with UC, I've found out that a terrifying amount of modern medicine is based on knowledge that is out of date, outright false, or comes from research funded by people with a massive financial interest in lying. When I was diagnosed with UC (ulcerative colitis), I was told point blank by the doctor that diat had nothing to do with my condition. In the few short years since I was diagnosed we have made major progress on that point. More than half a decade later medical science has acknowledged something I figured out years ago, and other people figured out decades ago. Side note: the fantasy that food doesn't affect a GI condition is just absurd.

 

I have to imagine it took them so long to get around to some more studies on food and UC in part because the guys with the most money to fund this kind of research are the drug companies, and if I can manage my condition with a diet instead of drugs with an annual 5 figure price tag, that's less money for them. The other side of that is that some of the studies were done, decades ago, but it's very difficult for all these smaller potentially very useful studies to compete with well funded pharmaceutical reps. Side note, we've done studies to prove that allowing drug manufacturers to conduct exclusive testing of their own drug is a terrible way to get unbiased results. Because apparently we needed a study to figure that out.

 

 

Ultimately, even if everyone were honest and motivated by saving lives instead of money (why I think private medical systems are terrifying in a nutshell), medical science is very slow to change. It takes a very long time to be sure of something to the point where someone isn't going to sue you into oblivion. There is also the fundamental issue that we assume what we know to be correct is infact correct. We've been falsely making that assumption for thousands of years, and continue to do so despite thousands of years of evidence telling us that we are probably half right at best. Add that to the fact that we know very little about how the human body works (and when it comes to the brain it's pretty much trial and error), and it's not unreasonable to assume that at least some of the ideas outside recognized conventional medicine have merit.

It's unfair to compare medical progress to what was being practiced historically. Medicine is relatively new as a science, if not as a practice, and the vast majority of its developments took place in the few decades after the Second World War. Before then, doctors couldn't really do a whole lot, except offer very limited forms of anaethesia and surgery, which was often performed in less-than-aseptic conditions and which therefore lead to a cornucopious amount of post-operative complications. If you became infected, especially with septicemia, there wasn't much anyone could do for you except pray. As the old saying goes, the role of the doctor is to humour the patient while nature does the healing. That has changed into a more systematic attempt to diagnose conditions and provide adequate, evidence-based treatments, and where the medical world has lead the way, the allied health professions have also started to make their own attempts at enforcing evidence-based practice.

 

For what it's worth, through quantitative research, we've discovered a great deal on information about the human body since then, and any drugs formulary in the world is testament to just how many pharmacological agents have been developed to interfere with its mechanisms. If anything, our understanding of pharmacology is beginning to exhaust. Where Big Pharma was once able to produce forty to fifty new agents per year, it's now down to around twenty, with some of those being weak (and cheaper) imitations of previous agents. There remains a massive issue about research funding, with pharmaceutical companies themselves fronting up the lion share of funding, performing all the research in house, refusing to publish results in academic journals, cherry-picking those which do, and often instead opting to keep results "On File", away from scientific scrutiny. Twice as much of the pharmaceutical industry's annual spending is wasted on marketing and PR (usually towards naive young doctors and nurses, as Furah said) than research and development. There is a huge issue about how the pharmaceutical industry, worth billions and billions of dollars per year, chooses to spend its cash, but as a new generation of doctors, nurses, paramedics, occupational therapists and physiotherapists are educated, their clever little tricks will become slowly less effective, hopefully. Make no mistake though; the medical and healthcare professions are not in their pocket.

 

What we don't have a great deal of information on is the patient's own experience. In the past, where drugs have been proven to have an effect, we've been too quick to generalize that intervention to everyone experiencing that particular problem, without viewing patients holistically. Healthcare research is increasingly taking a qualitative approach to research and incorporating this attitude into its traditional focus on "intervention X causes effect Y" trials.

 

The one consistent theme in all of this is the laughably absent sum of evidence which supports so-called "complimentary and alternative medicine". Alternative companies like to insinuate doctors don't want to test their products because they're being paid by Big Pharma. They also argue RCTs take up huge amounts of time, effort and money, so why would anyone bother running such trials? This accusation is totally laughable; CAM interventions are routinely tested and routinely demonstrated to be no more effective than placebo. Alternative companies are routinely asked to publish their positive results in peer-reviewed journals, and they repeatedly refuse to do so. There's even been some high-profile cases of individuals making puerile threats of legal action against other individuals who expose flaws in their methodology.

 

All in all, the point I'm making is that, for all the flaws of the medical profession and of Big Pharma, it is incorrect to assume those two groups are conspiring together, and it is incorrect to assume that because an individual in the medical profession got something wrong, the correct alternative is to start taking magic pills which haven't yet been properly scrutinized.
