GIRLS WITH BOMBS > DROPPING BOMBS ON PEOPLE

177

The Royal Australian Navy is paying for women sailors to have breast enlargements for purely cosmetic reasons, at a cost to taxpayers of $10,000 an operation.

Defence officials claim the surgery is justified because some servicewomen need bigger breasts to address “psychological issues”.

Darling Point plastic surgeon Kourosh Tavakoli told The Sunday Telegraph the navy had paid for two officers, aged 25 and 32, to have breast-augmentation surgery at his private clinic.

Dr Tavakoli said the women had not been injured but claimed to suffer “psychological” problems…

...He said young men and women were attracted to defence careers because they offered free medical care. This, in turn, improved the efficiency of the force.

“Just as there are in civilian life, there are some females who feel their breasts are too small and if their breasts were bigger, they might be more of a ‘normal’ woman,” Mr James said.

“If they were lacking in self-confidence, this might provide the measure of self-confidence that would help them tackle their wider job.

Each had had $10,000 worth of surgery, which required a recovery period of at least two weeks.

...Last year, a Brisbane surgeon revealed that an army cook had had a taxpayer-funded nose job.

Boundless NY’s Te$ly $nipe$ recently caught up with JK5 of Saved tattoo fame. A short but informative interview, Te$ly covers everything from his Saved Art Show to a sneak preview of JK5’s anticipated collab with Mishka. Check it out below.

Te$ly – Tell us who you are, what you do, and a give us a history of saved?

JK5: My name is Joseph Ari Aloi AKA JK5 . I am a kreactive artist who works in all forms and media, including tattooing for the last 13 years. drawing + writing remain central to my constant study + practice, and since 1999, my work has taken form in books, paintings, shows, installations, graphic design, typeface creation, toys, clothing and animation. i kreate visual, iconographic, and textual languages that are expanding, contracting, converging, exploding, and interacting, all within itself. I make FORN. That’s porn with form. That’s my new favorite word.

I have been working at the mighty and illustrious SAVED TATTOO since March of 07. SAVED is an amazing embodiment, owned +operated by the beast of an artist, Scott Campbell, who is a dear friend of mine. We have been in the space at 3 Hope St. since last August, and in addition to custom tattooing being nuclear to our daily practice, the space is faceted. Scott has a dope, cracking creative agency called MAMA TRIED within the space.

I have a personal studio within as well, as does our homie Brody Baker who is a sick young photographer/filmmaker. His company is called KNOWMORE, and they are currently working on the BAD BRAINS documentary with the woman who did the CBGB’S and RAMONES docs. I tattoo there tuesday through saturday with the most inspirational, and educational crew..It’s a brilliant family of peeps…In addition, we are nurturing the gallery facet as well, and have had some killer shows and events, including a birthday party for scott where our boy SPANK ROCK performed..It was nuts.

Te$ly – The last artshow at saved was sick. give us some background info on that event.

JK5: My studio mate, a most inventive tattooer and oil painter, Dan Trocchio and i moved into the studio space together shortly after we opened. Our show, up right now, Chrystalizes our life + production together that year. He revealed a stunning new body of oil paintings, and my half was a bit of a retrospective, with bodies of work and content going back to 1994.

XLR8R MAG :: AUGUST 15, 2007

174

NYC’s King Stampede brand is such a big name in streetwear, you might think they rock hip-hop all day every day. Wrong! Creative Director Pete Leonard, 32, is a disco DJ fiend and a huge Deadhead–put it this way: When we asked him to pick his favorite Grateful Dead song, he could only narrow it down to seven. (You’ll see the hippie vibes creep into KS t-shirts like the Dashiki print and one with a trippy-looking graphic of Beatle George Harrison.) Inspiration also comes from party-and-bullshittin’ around Brooklyn, and hanging out at the crew’s Boundless NYC streetwear store, started by King Stampede owner Nick Langella. We tracked Leonard down in Boundless’ back room and asked him what products are really twisting his melon.

Keep reading here

This week, we promise the new King Stampede will be available…. and if your shopping for Pete this holiday season, I think you know what to get the kid now….

Boundless NY, we bring you everything you wanted and more.

MURDER FOR RESPECT VS A BROKEN SYSTEM

173

Meredith May, Chronicle Staff Writer

Along with the Christmas trees and family gatherings, there’s another end-of-the-year ritual in Oakland – a candlelight vigil for the murdered.

The body count is woven into the civic consciousness here – a number chased by homicide inspectors, studied by criminologists, lamented in churches, reported by journalists. Every mayor leaves City Hall on broken promises to quell the violence, and the killings continue. An additional 115 have been killed this year, putting Oakland on pace for another gruesome record.

In the last five years, 557 people were slain on the city’s streets, making Oakland the state’s second-most murderous city, behind Compton.

Most victims are young, black men who are dying in forgotten neighborhoods of East and West Oakland.

A handful of their killers, speaking from prison, describe an environment where violence is so woven into the culture that murder has become a symbol of manhood.

The inmates say the only difference between these neighborhoods and prison is the absence of walls. The same hierarchies apply – the meanest rise to the top. It’s a survival skill that ensures ownership of drug corners, a sense of self-worth, female attention and protection from attack.

Experts fear that the neighborhoods are only getting more violent. There are entire blocks without a single two-parent family, where drug dealers have become the predominant male role models, and children fend for themselves in crowded, chaotic homes where they are routinely exposed to drugs, sex and guns.

104


Criminal families are on their third and fourth generations. Grandparents – the ones who have historically stepped in to help raise fatherless boys and instill a sense of right and wrong – are dying off.

Back in the 1980s, drug dealers who first brought crack cocaine to Oakland used to hide their activities from their parents because it was shameful, but now it’s a full-blown family business, said Michelle Gandy, a private investigator who interviews murder defendants for Alameda County court-appointed criminal defense attorneys.

“The kids today recognize that their parents are in it, too, so there’s this hopelessness,” she said.

Increasingly, the young murder suspects coming to the station for questioning seem to lack basic morality, said Sgt. Tim Nolan, who has been investigating Oakland homicides for 17 years.

“There are more and more families where there’s less and less structure,” he said. “Talking to these suspects day in and out, there’s a higher percentage today with no sense of right and wrong. It’s frightening, but we are creating super-criminals.”

All it takes is a look, a put-down or a lost fight, and bullets fly. Disrespect has become the No. 1 reason to kill.
