In a desperate bid to win his title of YouTube King back, PewDiePie, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, uploaded a new video to his channel, titled "Big Announcement: New Show!", in which he, as is his wont, reviewed a score or two of short clips.
The video, which was posted on 26 March, has already been viewed over 2.6 million times, with people probably dying to know what the new show will be about. Although, in the very clip, Pewds, who filmed it in Japan, seemed to not make any "big announcements" — only meme reviews and merch advertising.
The EU has, however, said that "parody" was an exemption to the rule, which implies that most memes and short viral video clips will not be covered by the legislation.
Many on social media suggested that the legislation's passing was the main reason why Felix had arrived in Japan to film his new video:
@pewdiepie should just admit that this Article 13 bullshit is the real reason for him going to Japan— Mitchell Ryan (@MitcheffectRyan) 26 марта 2019 г.
Article 11 and 13: *passes*— Captain Complain 🏳🌈 (@CaptComplain) 26 марта 2019 г.
Pewdiepie: "I'm in Japan now."
I hope that he does move to Japan, cause, if I'm correct, Asia is a different continent than Europe, which means he'd be able to continue making his videos. Although I don't know what's going to happen to Jacksepticeye— ShatteredSans (@Sans66105904) 26 марта 2019 г.
Earlier this week, PewDiePie starred in a music video, made and published by Maltese music producer and YouTuber known as Grandayy, which dissed the EU Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market. Felix was not the only social media personality to make a cameo appearance in the video, as he was joined by fellow YouTubers – Jacksepticeye and Roomie.

Two (sometimes three) guitarists is good, but four is definitely better. That seems to be what Pearl Jam was thinking when they took the stage for their first time in three years to play songs from their 2020 Gigaton album with a third guitarist joining Mike McCready and Stone Gossard on the six string. Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Josh Klinghoffer made his live debut with PJ on Saturday (Sept. 18) at the Sea.Hear.Now Festival, where he added guitar, percussion, tambourine and backing vocals during the group's headlining set.
Klinghoffer, who joined the Chili Peppers in 2007 as a replacement for on-and-off guitarist John Frusciante -- and then was relieved of his duties in 2019 when Frusciante returned -- was slated to be the opening act on PJ's postponed 2020 tour. During a monologue to preface the first performance of the Gigaton song "Never Destination," singer and sometime guitarist Eddie Vedder introduced Klinghoffer to the PJ Nation by describing how a missed opportunity turned into a new gig.

Those dull LADOT utility boxes are giving way to an explosion of images and color, thanks to programs by the Sherman Oaks Chamber Foundation and the Studio City Business Improvement District (SCBID). They award local artists grants of up to $450 to design and paint the boxes.
There’s a unicorn at Kester Avenue and Camarillo Street by artist Starlah Burke and a picnic by Trace Johannson on Van Nuys Boulevard at Hortense Street. A sound man by Laura Gonzalez holds a mic over the sidewalk at Ventura Boulevard and Laurel Grove and a movie camera by Juan Gonzales catches the action on Vantage Avenue south of Ventura.
Altogether, local artists have painted more than 100 formerly gray utility boxes in Sherman Oaks and Studio City.
You can learn more in our two-part series about this community art program. We’ll begin with the “Let’s Paint Sherman Oaks” program. Next week, we’ll do “It Happened Here in Studio City.”
Let’s Paint Sherman Oaks
More than 90 utility boxes have been painted through this program sponsored by the Sherman Oaks Chamber Foundation in partnership with Los Angeles City Council District 4.
You’ll spot them along Sepulveda Boulevard, Kester, Van Nuys, Hazeltine Avenue: Monarch butterflies, swimming koi fish, an old fashioned telephone booth, abstract designs and variations of the Valley Oak tree or its leaves.
You can see the full gallery of painted utility boxes in Sherman Oaks, where they are located and the artist who painted them here.
Having either a Valley Oak or one of its leaves in the design is a requirement of the “Let’s Paint Sherman Oaks” program. Other requirements are that the designs be “neighborhood appropriate” and use paint with low amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and that is non-metallic. The designs must be approved by the City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation.
Artists whose designs are selected are awarded $450 to paint a large utility box and $350 for a smaller one.
The Chamber Foundation covers the boxes with an anti-graffiti coating and cleans them monthly.
Part 2: “It Happened in Studio City” coming next week.

To the surprise of most investors around the globe, yesterday the U.K. voted 52% to 48% in favor of leaving the European Union (EU), after more than four decades, in a stunning rejection of the continent's post-war political and economic order. Prime Minister David Cameron resigned, stating that he would serve another 3 months until his replacement is elected. Financial markets around the globe responded with stocks selling-off while bonds and gold rallied.
The result of the vote is important for a number of reasons, but none more than the fact that global economic growth has been fragile since the 'Great Recession' of 2008. 'Brexit' (the British from the EU) is a confidence shock to global economic growth. The U.K. now faces a period of long and drawn-out divorce talks with the EU. Under EU laws, the highly-negotiated process of withdrawal has up to 2 years to complete. The level of uncertainty and volatility in financial markets will likely remain elevated for quite some time.
In the days leading up to yesterday's vote, global financial markets were positioning themselves for the U.K. to remain in the EU. Therefore, markets were caught offside and this swift, deep sell-off is the result of an imbalance of sell orders. Within the next few days, financial markets should move back into balance. Fortunately, global central banks and monetary authorities stand ready to maintain and, if need be, increase liquidity in the financial system. The Fed will continue to hold off on raising interest rates, perhaps for the remainder of the year.
With no real way to assess the likelihood of the U.K. leaving the EU, from a risk management perspective we felt that it was prudent to tactically reduce all direct exposure to European stocks. The change was communicated, and effective, last week. We are now significantly underweight our strategic targets for international, developed market stocks and underweight risk assets in general. The proceeds of the sale remain invested in cash as we further assess the ramifications of this historic event and look for opportunities in risk-based assets.

This patch follows D85345 and adds more noundef attributes to return values/arguments of library functions
that are mostly about accessing the file system or processes.
A few functions like chmod or times use typedef mode_t and clock_t.
They are neither struct nor union, so they cannot contain undef even if they're lowered to iN in IR. So, it is fine to add noundef to them.
- clock_t's actual type is size_t (C17, 22.214.171.124), so it isn't struct or union.
- For mode_t, either int or long is used in practice because programmers use bit manipulation. So, I think it is okay that it's never aggregate in practice.
After this patch, the remaining library functions are those that eagerly participate in optimizations: they can be removed, reordered, or
introduced by a transformation from primitive IR operations.
For them, a few testings is needed, since it may not be valid to add noundef anymore even if C standard says it's okay.

And just after Aaron suggested they start printing up playoff tickets.
Bruce Chen, who is 4-1 with a 3.59 ERA in seven starts to open the year, was placed on the disabled list Tuesday with a left lat strain.
Vin Mazzaro will be called up to start in his place Wednesday.
Chen has been a big success with his 10th major league team, going 16-8 since the beginning of 2010. The Royals were 6-1 when he started this year, with Chen’s lone defeat coming at the hands of the Rangers. He had one of his better starts last time in a 9-1 win over the Orioles.
Replacing him will be Mazzaro, who was all set to be the Kansas City’s fifth starter coming out of spring training. The Royals sent him down at the end of March because they didn’t need a No. 5 during the first week of the season, but a funny thing happened in his Triple-A tuneup, as he walked seven and allowed five runs in 2 1/3 innings against Albuquerque. The nightmare performance caused the Royals to bypass him and go to Sean O’Sullivan at the back of the rotation.
Mazzaro, though, has gotten batter lately. Over his last three starts, he has a 3.00 ERA and a 20/3 K/BB ratio in 18 innings. He’ll take on the Yankees on Wednesday and likely make at least one additional start before Chen return.

Rhetoric Analysis Reflective Essay
The rhetorical analysis involved summarizing two readings presented by identifying the
key ideas and rhetorical features presented in them by the authors. The readings were “Getting
out of Grading” by Scott Jaschik and “Trigger Warnings, College, and the Swaddled Generation”
by Kathleen Parker. The writing process for the rhetoric analysis was guided by the provided
instructions to ensure that the presented content did not deviate from what was expected. The
instructions required that I be impartial in analyzing the readings to avoid inclining on one
author’s work than the other. As advised by the instructions, comparing and contrasting revolves
around analyzing what is common in the readings. Therefore, in my initial thinking stage, I had
an idea that the readings are closely related to what the authors present, and I was supposed to
compare and contrast them. In the analysis, I had to determine the intended audience I was to
write to, purpose, and examples that rhetorically appeal to the pathos, ethos, and logos.
In my first draft, there were many errors as I had failed to meet the requirements of the
instructions. In the introduction of the first draft, I did not give the purpose of the study.
However, after being advised on how to write a good thesis statement to depict the purpose of
the analysis, I added it in the final version. This made it easier for the reader to understand what I
intended to present in the paper. Another mistake made in the first version was that I had inclined
to Kathleen Parker’s presentation but failed to analyze Scott Jaschik’s work in the introduction.
This was against comparing and contrasting guidelines and more of a review. After being
advised to recheck the section and correct it accordingly, I included Scott’s work to ensure that it
was clear that I was comparing and contrasting works from two authors in the final copy.
When presenting a comparison and contrasting analysis, the reader expects a well-
organized work that is easy to read through. A good rhetoric analysis requires to be divided into
several sections as there are various issues that are compared and contrasted. I had decided to
categorize my work into three groups, ethos, pathos, and logos but did not give headings for each
in the first draft. Rather, I had written it as an essay from the start to finish. I was told that this
makes it difficult to find the key ideas and rhetoric features in my work as the reader has to go
through every paragraph to determine which category it falls in. Therefore, I implemented the
advice given in the final version and put subheadings for the three categories.
The best advice I received in revising this work was that I should always go through the
work several times and compare it to the provided instructions to ensure that it adheres in all
ways. This helps to identify the mistakes made and correct them before submitting the final
version. I have learned the importance of organizing any rhetoric work in groups to make the
work easier to read. The learned knowledge during revision will be implemented in future
classes to ensure that I perfect my work. I will be able to write better thesis statements, ensure
that I compare and contrast the authors’ ideas, and properly group my work in subheadings. This
rhetoric analysis and its revision were essential in improving my writing style and I was able to
present an improved final version.

WARNING: This video contains strong language.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — The Forsyth County sheriff says the viral video of a deputy using force on a man who was not wearing a face mask does not show the full picture of what happened.
Sheriff Bobby Kimbrough spoke during a Monday news conference and said he cannot release the bodycam video at this time but was able to show it in full to multiple community leaders and activists, who agreed that the use of force was justified.
Kimbrough said a customer was trying to get money from an ATM when he was confronted for not wearing a face mask.
A deputy was working an extra duty assignment at the flea market, which regularly employees deputies for security, according to the FCSO.
He was offered a free face mask, but he reportedly refused to wear it. The sheriff says the man never said he had any medical reason for not wearing a mask.
The deputy said that if he refuses to wear the mask, he must leave the premises. The man continued to refuse. The deputy reported that the man was only concerned about getting money from the ATM.
The sheriff says the man was asked to leave five times and repeatedly informed that he was trespassing before force was used to detain the man.
The person was charged with trespassing and resisting a public officer.
The deputy is continuing to work.
Cook’s Flea Market released the following statement to FOX8:
“On Saturday, June 27th, an individual at the flea market was asked repeatedly to comply with the statewide order making mask-wearing mandatory in public. After verbally refusing to put on a mask, the individual was asked by management multiple times to leave the property. When the individual declined to leave, a deputy sheriff providing security at the market was called to escort the individual to their vehicle and was subsequently charged with Trespassing and Resisting a Public Officer.”
The FCSO says the deputies role was the same as it is every time a deputy works at the flea market: to provide security to the flea market, including when the business management requests someone to leave, and to ensure they vacate the premises without undue delay.
As with every incident that involves the use of force, supervision has reviewed the incident in its entirety to ensure the deputy acted appropriately given the scope of the situation, according to the FCSO.

OLYMPIC VALLEY, Calif. — At a regularly scheduled Placer County Board of Supervisors meeting last Tuesday at the Resort at Squaw Creek, planning staff gave a presentation on a proposed project that would increase the number of rooms, retail shopping areas and other amenities at the Village at Squaw Valley.
Squaw Valley Resorts is proposing a project on a 100-acre portion of the 4,700-acre Squaw Valley General Plan area. According to a county press release, the developer proposes to amend the General Plan to develop a recreation-based, all-season resort community consisting of 1,275 fractional ownership residential and guest accommodation units that would include condominium hotels and semi-attached and detached fractional ownership residential properties.
The four-phase development would be built over 12 to 15 years — the first phase would include approximately 25 acres and almost 1 million square feet of development, according to the plan.
Planning staff made the presentation and responded to supervisor questions last Tuesday. The developer also was on hand to answer questions.
“This will be a very closely watched proposal as it could have substantial impacts — positive or negative — on water, traffic, air and other quality of life issues for Olympic Valley residents and businesses in the Eastern end of Placer County,” said Chairwoman Jennifer Montgomery, whose fifth district includes Squaw Valley. “Placer County is committed to a full, robust, open and transparent process that will include the voices and input of all affected stakeholders in the region.”
Members of the public also commented, voicing concerns over several aspects of the project, including size, building height, water and its effect on the valley and Squaw Creek and the Squaw Valley community.
There will be numerous opportunities for public comment, including at upcoming meetings of the Squaw Valley Municipal Advisory Council and Placer County Planning Commission, along with the Board of Supervisors again. Those meetings are yet to be determined.
There will also be opportunities for public comment on the environmental documentation process.

Ratings and Reviews
This is frickin awesome! 😃
Seriously though, the folks over at Rantmedia Games did an awesome job put this compilation app out for the IOS devices, also the fact it's free. 😀 This seriously makes me want to get most of those games that I don't have for the Vectrex yet. Although I have to say that there's some flaws with this app, such as if you tap on one of the game boxes twice quickly, you can't view the game box anymore unless you reset the app. Also there's some slowdowns (specially in Berzerk, although I've never experienced the vectrex version of Berzerk, but I doubt it is that slow when played on the real thing) and lagging (which can mess up your gameplay 😠). And the voices for Spike are missing. Despite these flaws, I still highly recommend this app if you're into old school video games, I also recommend using the iCade controller for arcade experience (although I don't know about the driving games such as Pole Position or Hyper Chase). I hope in the future that Rantmeda Games will fix these flaws/bugs and put in more games like Clean Sweep and Spinball. 🙂
Thank you devs!
I was in Jr High when Vectrex came out and I wanted one so bad. Only ever got to see Armor Attack for 5 minutes at a school friend's house before he had enough and it we were out the door. This app is a pure joy. I feel like the richest kid on the block in 1982. The library is amazing. [kudos to the reviewers with an even deeper knowledge of what remains to be emulated but this is a very deep collection.] I've played all the cartridges just to check them out and they all run well and load fast on my 6+. The signature vector look, remembered from the arcade machines, is well emulated. Sound's good. I don't have a game pad and that is a definite drawback but no fault of the app.
I was particularly delighted by the Scramble port. The included games could be hours of fun. The indie titles are fun too. Special mention to the card game Vector 21. Also, I never played Flappy Bird -or whatever it was called- before the Dev pulled it, but couldn't escape its legendary impact on the gaming landscape. Thanks for letting me give it a try with Veccy Bird!
This is a project worth supporting. Get in there and have some fun.
Very nicely done. Plays very well. Works well with my Bluetooth game controller. Can be played with the screen control, but become a struggle with some of the games. Buy a good controller you can use it with most of retro app games. A nice simulation of the original gaming system. Love the old tv commercials that can me played in the app. Comes with a large grouping of games for under a few dollars. Had no problems running or setting up this game. This is what retro gaming is all about!

Currently, selecting a channel focuses the mixer. I like this function… BUT, if I manually scroll the mixer, I’d like Cubase to remember where I left it, and keep the mixer there… unless I then select another track/channel, then Cubase can refocus the mixer again on the selected channel.
The reason this is important, is because on very large projects with hundreds of tracks, I may scroll until I find a certain channel in the mixer. if I then hit F3 to close the mixer so I can work in the arrange window, and then hit F3 again to get back to the mixer, the mixer is now scrolled all the way to the beginning and I have lost my position. Now I have to search through hundreds of channels in the mixer to find where I was last… this causes me to have to spend a lot of time searching. I know I can select a track and the mixer will scroll to it, but then I have to search through hundreds of tracks to do this. I’d prefer when I manually slide the mixer somewhere, that it will remember where I had it and stay there (unless I select a track, in which case it should scroll to the selected track).

Same here. I never understood the appeal of watching other people play games, and I never understood why I should have to subsidize the people who do watch sports. I like watching movies, but I don't expect other people to subsidize my movie channels.
Me too. They can take all the sports channel, move them to an infinitely priced tier and I would not care in the least. The junkies can pay for their entertainment just like I pay for mine.--

This Colt Model 1900 Long Slide was Shipped to the Simmons Hardware company in St. Louis Missouri on February 26th, 1902 in a 20 gun shipment. Factory letter states that it was furnished with a stub hammer.
This particular Colt 1900 was shipped back to the factory at some point during it's life and was refinished and had the rear sight safety modified to have a fixed sight put in place.
Colt would eventually discontinue the Model 1900 and replace it with the Model 1902 Military and 1902 Sporting variants.
The K on the right trigger guard was applied for pistols that were sent in for repair or refinishing.

Mrs. Mole: A Gift From a Caring Husband to a Recovering Wife
Aaaaaas Yooooou Wiiiiiiiiiiiish
When the wife of illustrator Ronald Searle was presented with a dire breast cancer diagnosis back in 1969, he wanted to do whatever he could to help her keep her spirits up while she underwent aggressive chemotherapy. As intimidating as chemotherapy is today, when Monica Searle was facing it, it was still a very experimental treatment, and to pursue it took a huge leap of faith. So, to ease her mind and take her mind off the riskiness, Ronald Searle created Les Tres Riches Heures de Mrs. Mole, or The Very Rich Hours of Mrs. Mole. After every session, the husband drew a new picture for his wife, “to cheer every dreaded chemotherapy session and evoke the blissful future ahead.” See more of them after the jump, but only if you really want your heart warmed.
Monica Searle survived breast cancer and passed away last summer. Ronald joined her right before the new year. On Mrs. Mole, he wrote:
Everything about them had to be romantic and perfect. I drew them originally for no one’s eyes except Mo’s, so she would look at them propped up against her bedside lamp and think: ‘When I’m better, everything will be beautiful.’
Here is more Mrs. Mole:
The Very Rich Hours of Mrs. Mole is available in hardcover at Amazon. Probably a lovely, sweet Mother’s Day gift, even if your mom doesn’t need cheering up!

When it comes to making the electric grid smarter, utilities are sometimes on the sidelines.
Home security company Vivint today announced a deal with Tendril to fill out its home security offering with enhanced energy-management features. The deal shows how home automation systems can be expanded through cloud-based smart-grid services.
Vivint earlier this year rebranded itself (it was called APX Alarms) and launched an home monitoring service. For $57.99 per month--an additional $8 a month over the security service--a customer gets a wireless thermostat, a smart plug to control lights or small appliances, and a pack of compact fluorescent bulbs.to complement its
Right now, people can use the Vivint console to control security and thermostat settings. For example, a person can hit the "away" button when leaving to adjust the thermostat and arm the security. The service can also be accessed over the Web or an iPhone app, so a person could precool a home or control appliances that are connected to the system.
Through its partnership with Tendril, Vivint intends to add to the energy management offering with more detailed information and recommendations. The Tendril software can analyze usage patterns and combine it with weather data, for example, to generate very specific recommendations on how to customize the system, explained Alex Dunn, the chief operating officer of Vivint.
Linking to Tendril's back-end services means other services are possible, such as having a clothes dryer go into energy-saving mode during peak-power times to save money, said Dennis Kyle, the senior director of strategic and new market development at Tendril.
Customer reception for the combined energy/security services has been good, the company said. Vivint has signed on about 70,000 customers for its energy-management services out of about 170,000 new customers.
The main reason that customers are signing on to the energy service is that it helps improve energy efficiency and save money, said Tanguy Serra, the president of Vivint Energy. Secondly, it gives them the ability to remotely control appliances, lights, or the thermostat, he said.
Tendril, which primarily sells its home energy monitoring and control service through utilities, said this is the first time it has partnered with a home automation and security company. Competitor EnergyHub is expected to announce a deal to offer anthrough a broadband provider, such as a cable company, in the coming months.
"All of these entities, in addition to utilities, already have a relationship with consumers and can have a dialogue with them about energy," said Kyle from Tendril. "These other companies want to be part of the energy Internet."
One advantage a service provider like Vivint brings is the ability to install hardware. Tracking a home's power consumption requires either an activated smart meter or another device. Vivint will install a sensor that clamps onto a circuit box and communicates usage data to its console.

The tenements of the East Village that were once jam-packed with immigrants are now city landmarks.
The Landmarks Preservation Commission voted 6-1 Tuesday to protect 330 buildings within an historic district covering a swath of the neighborhood.
"Each wave of immigrants that settled in the district gave rise to the richly layered built environment that remains today," said the chairman of the commission, Robert Tierney.
The district is centered on Second Ave. between E. 2nd and E. 7th Sts.
Among the buildings now shielded from development are the Russian Orthodox Cathedral on E. 2nd St. and the home of the long-closed Fillmore East concert venue on Second Ave., which once hosted Jimi Hendrix and the Grateful Dead.
Preservationists hailed the vote.
"Too much has been lost of late in the East Village to new high-rise dorms, hotels, and luxury condos," said Andrew Berman, the executive director of the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation.

|Builders and Destroyers|
|By A. Harrison Barnes, Esq.|
In every organization, there are people who are positive forces that lead, inspire, and build and others who are negative forces that criticize, depress, and tear down. This dichotomy can be carried further to cover virtually any social group. This distinction is so clear that a cognizable argument could be made that most people can be grouped into one category or another. Which are you? In life, as in work, you will be faced with a decision of which group to join, and your decision will have a meaningful effect on your long-term success. Whether or not your workplace is composed mainly of builders or destroyers will also have a meaningful effect on your organization's overall success.
The builder vs. destroyer dichotomy is perhaps most apparent in the legal community. Many studies have confirmed that lawyers, as a group, suffer more from psychological problems, such as depression, than other professions. Because the role of a destroyer is to criticize, depress, and tear down, there are likely to be a greater number of destroyers in the legal profession than in most other professions.
In your own organization, whatever it may be, there will be people who rarely talk negatively about the organization and seek to contribute to it in an ongoing, positive way. These individuals will have kindred spirits and followers. Conversely, most organizations have people who are constantly dissatisfied with the organization and their jobs and share their feelings with anyone who will choose to listen. These people will also have kindred spirits and followers. Such groups are readily identifiable in most companies.
There are, of course, many good reasons for criticizing and finding fault with any institution. Some of this criticism may also be quite productive. In addition, anyone who is constantly operating under the belief that everything is rosy and perfect in his/her organization may be operating more under the influence of a delusion, or a very strong dose of antidepressants, than an understanding of reality. If you consider the various aspects of your life-such as your recreational activities, your love life, and even your family-you will find that the majority of your concentration is not on these things, but on your job. This is especially so for most lawyers. Because your job plays such a fundamental role in your existence, if you do not like your job, you are not going to enjoy life.
Presumably, you want to enjoy your job, and because your enjoyment in life is fundamental to your satisfaction in your work, it is important to decide whether or not you will. In your job, there are going to be constant and ongoing temptations to become critical of your organization and adopt a negative attitude. Destroyers will also, directly or not, try to get you to join them in their negativity and constant criticism. This is something you are, of course, free to do. You need to understand, however, that by joining the negative/destroyer crowd and adopting its party line, you are not only going to be doing yourself a disservice, but you will be doing your organization a disservice as well. Few people who adopt this rationale ever find happiness in either their professional or personal lives. In the high-stress environment of being a legal professional, it is a very easy outlook to adopt. Make sure that before you adopt this outlook, you know exactly what you are doing.
A. Recognizing the Role of Psychiatric and Depressive Disorders in the Legal Profession
It may seem odd to discuss psychiatric disorders in an article about finding happiness and fulfillment in the legal profession. Notwithstanding, mental illness is something that affects a lot of people. Because psychiatric disorders are so prevalent, it is important to be aware of them. Most builders tend not to have any psychological issues. Conversely, most destroyers may be quite depressed and suffer from a variety of psychological problems.
1. The Role of Depressive Disorders in the Legal Profession
One research study surveyed 801 lawyers in the State of Washington and found that 19% of the respondents suffered from depression and 18% were problem drinkers. (G.A.H. Benjamin, E.J. Darling & B.D. Sales The Prevalence of Depression, Alcohol Abuse, And Cocaine Abuse Among United States Lawyers, 13 Journal of Law and Psychiatry 233 (1990)). Because there was a 5% overlap in these groups, close to one third of this sample had a significant mental health problem.
Similarly, a Johns Hopkins University study found that of 28 occupations that could be compared in a statistically valid manner, lawyers were most likely to suffer from depression and more than 3.6 times more likely than average to do so. (W.W. Eaton, J.C. Anthony, W. Mandel & R. Garrison, Occupations and the Prevalence of Major Depressive Disorder, 32 Journal of Occupational Medicine 1079 (1980)). The same study concluded that the legal environment is particularly conducive to stress-related disorders due to the stress it produces and other factors, such as work complexity and the amount of work attorneys have to do.
While these statistics may not seem all that significant-or even applicable to you-you need to understand them if you work in the legal profession. These are the people you work with, regardless of your role in the profession. Because so many attorneys are suffering from mental difficulties, try as you may, you will have a very difficult time avoiding people who are depressed in your legal career.
2. The Borderline Personality in the Legal Profession
In the book I Hate You, Don't Leave Me, psychiatrist Jerry Kreisman, M.D., defines in layman's terms the borderline personality disorder. Because approximately 2% of the general population suffers from this disorder, one can only surmise that lawyers have a much higher incidence of this:
The world of a BP, like that of a child, is split into heroes and villains. A child emotionally, a BP cannot tolerate human inconsistencies and ambiguities; he cannot reconcile another's good and bad qualities into a constant coherent understanding of another person. At any particular moment, one is either Good or Evil. There is no in-between; no gray area...people are idolized one day; totally devalued and dismissed the next.
Normal people are ambivalent and can experience two contradictory states at one time; BPs shift back and forth, entirely unaware of one feeling state while in the other.
When the idealized person finally disappoints (as we all do, sooner or later) the borderline must drastically restructure his one-dimensional conceptualization. Either the idol is banished to the dungeon, or the borderline banishes himself in order to preserve the all-good image of the other person.
Splitting is intended to shield the BP from a barrage of contradictory feelings and images and from the anxiety of trying to reconcile those images. But splitting often achieves the opposite effect. The frays in the BP's personality become rips, and the sense of his own identity and the identity of others shifts even more dramatically and frequently. Page 10
In my role as a legal recruiter, I am constantly speaking with people who have held a number of jobs over a short period of time. In each job this person takes, he/she entered the position with an idolized vision of the employer. Then, as always, something occurs that makes him/her hate the employer, and he/she then feels an urgent need to find a new employer. This pattern will repeat itself as many times as a new employer is willing to hire the person. In personal life, this same characteristic may manifest itself in someone who moves from one romantic relationship to another and another and another. The process is never-ending.
B. The Destroyers
In understanding the role of destroyers, it is important to understand the importance of work to your day-to-day happiness. When we look at the neurotic and severely troubled in this society, we most often are looking at those who do not work. Whether it be the poor beggar, the lunatic, the rich man's son, or even the common criminal-most of these people can be defined by an inability to work. The right to and ability to work is often bound up in happiness, and the denial of work is often defined by a troubled psyche.
In discussing the destroyer mentality, it is important to realize the way it may define an individual inside the legal profession and the group as a whole. Discussed below are the effects of an individual destroyer mentality and those of a group destroyer mentality. Recognizing both is essential for your long-term success in the legal profession.
1. The Individual Destroyer Mentality
Whether it is because they are depressed, suffer from borderline personalities, or have simply adopted the views of other negative people inside an organization, there are individual destroyers inside every legal environment.
When most of us start our first job, we do so with a fair amount of enthusiasm. We are working in the legal profession for many reasons. Some of these reasons may include:
Life is quite confusing, and because of this confusion, people generally adopt certain rationales to justify everything they do and their outlooks towards the world. Certain people simply justify their interactions with the world based upon their ways of seeing things. When you join any organization, you are going to have a certain rationale for doing so that makes you comfortable and feel good about what you are doing.
Inside the organization you are joining, there are going to be people who do not feel good about their employers. These sorts of people are not always easy to spot; however, you will generally meet them in a relatively short period of time. As you offer your rationale and good feelings about the organization, they will have a prepared set of counter-arguments to let you know that things are not as good as you want them to seem. Using the above example, they may offer the following responses to your positive expressions of happiness with the organization:
In fact, this particular person would likely be doing the same thing in any organization of which he/she were a part. Whatever his/her criticisms are, he/she would likely be present (albeit, in a different form) in any organization. His/Her methods may even have a competitive element because by making you unhappy with your role-and invalidating the things you like about your job-you may leave the organization and make room for him/her.
I am certainly neither a psychologist nor a psychiatrist, so a few observations are all I will venture to get into here:
2. The Group Destroyer Mentality
In order for a company or any other organization to succeed, the destroyers cannot outnumber those who truly believe in the organization. For example, a good argument can be made that most failed law firms failed because they had too many destroyers. For example, firms like Finley Kumble and others ran into serious trouble when they began hiring partners aggressively at the lateral level. Because most of these partners [presumably] were unhappy with their existing organizations when they moved to these firms, a good argument can be made that the law firms hired too many "destroyers." The ongoing success of firms like Wachtell Lipton Rosen & Katz, Latham & Watkins, and others, it can be argued, is a result of not hiring destroyers at an aggressive level laterally. Similarly, the problems of some firms can be attributed to the merger of a firm of unhappy destroyer lawyers with another.
The point is this: Once the individual destroyers have a certain critical mass, the group destroyer mentality will take over. At that point, the organization is in serious trouble.
Healthy organizations do their best not to hire destroyers in the first place and to recognize destroyers for what they are. Nevertheless, because destroyers are often difficult to recognize-and their methods may be subtle-they inevitably become part of any organization. The job of any healthy organization is to flush out destroyers so that the organization can function effectively and the people working there will be happy. Once a destroyer is identified, a good organization will try to change the views of a destroyer. If the organization cannot change the views of a destroyer, it will do its best to ensure that he/she leaves.
What a destroyer inevitably leaves behind are other people who have been persuaded to adopt a similar destructive point of view and outlook towards the organization. Good organizations are not stupid. They will remember whom the destroyer associated with closely and watch these people. If the organization believes they are also destroyers, that organization will do its best to rid itself of them as well. The organization has to do this because its very well-being depends upon doing so.
One point of this article is this: Do not become a destroyer. The second point is this: Do your best to distance yourself from destroyers. The destroyer will do you harm in both how you feel about your job and, by extension, how your employer thinks of you as well.
There are a lot of unhappy people in the legal profession, and your objective should be to not become one of them or associate with them. Because work is such an essential component of life, if you allow others to make you unhappy in your job, you will not only become unhappy in your job, but in your life as well. Realize that no organization-and I mean no organization-is perfect or ideal, and do your best to find the positives and ignore the negatives, and you will do just fine. In order to succeed in a legal environment, you must be constantly perceived as a builder and not a destroyer. Once someone adopts the outlook of a destroyer, no matter how far he/she looks, he/she may never find an environment he/she is happy with.
The key is to keep asking probing questions and show a sincere interest in the other individual. If you do, your networks will become stronger, and you will not have to work as hard to build them.
