Practice: it's what makes us good musicians! It is also the number one thing most musicians complain about online! Why is this? Well, because practice takes discipline, and that's hard sometimes. Here's how to make practice easier. Make it a habit. Every semester, I choose a time every day of the week to practice. Hopefully, it's close to the same time every day, but no matter what, I set aside…Read More

How to Handle Fear of Uncertainty
So I realized the other day: I'm an adult. I'm like, old. In a year and half, I'll be entering the Real World finally, and I'll need a for-real source of income, not just my campus job. This was an uncomfortable realization, to say the least. Most musicians' careers aren't likely to fit the "traditional" trajectory that people imagine. That uncertainty is nerve-wracking. Here's how we can all handle it!…Read More

How to Set Goals in Music
An anonymous person asked: I don't know if you've written about this but how do you set goals? With there being so many different things to work on (ear training, sight singing, technique, composing, arranging, playing with others, etc) I've been having trouble actually making (or maybe tracking) progress in any of these areas. Great question! It's simple to set goals, but not necessarily easy. The thing is that goals…Read More
How to Make a Schedule and Stick to It
I have a Patreon! Please consider supporting this blog. The question I received recently from tumblr user @life-of-mack was this: "How to make a practice/work/school schedule and stick to it?" That's certainly a tough venture, sometimes. The short answer? Discipline. If only it were so simple, right? If the only reason we don't stick to schedules was because we didn't realize it takes discipline to do so, then…Read More
How to Handle Working During School
It is an unfortunate fact that most college students are obligated to work at least some during the school year. It's not easy to do, either. A full course load is designed to be roughly equivalent to working a full-time job, in and of itself. Most schools recommend studying for a class at least three hours per credit. If I actually had the time and will-power to do that, I…Read More

Round 3 see's the 2016 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS Championship pass the half way mark and our reporters caught up with Matthew Gurr to see how his preparations are going ahead of the round at Ipswich Supercars on 22-24th of July.
Brad De Losa surprised everyone at the last round and won your event the Springboard - do you think he'll beat you again?
MATTHEW: I don't know, anyone can win the Springboard. I'm lucky that I'm consistent with this discipline so I'm still the one to beat but anyone is capable of beating me on any particular day.
You're currently in joint 5th on the championship ladder, do you think you can catch the top 4? Or are you happy to battle it out for the 5th spot on the Aussie team?
MATTHEW: My personal goal is to make the 5th spot and make the Australian team. I'm lucky to be sitting 5th. I haven't performed well so far – I haven't had a good run in the last 2 rounds, so I'm hoping my performance picks up. The 5th spot is wide open.
What have you got to do to stay in 5th?
MATTHEW: My weakest two events are the Single Buck and Under Hand Chop so I'm not confident I will pick up many points in these. I have to do well in the Standing Block, much better in the Hot Saw and perform really well in the Stock Saw.
You bought a Hotsaw ahead of Round 2 but didn't use it, why?
MATTHEW: I only received it just before Agfest. It wasn't up to scratch and I wasn't up to speed with hotsawing - the mechanical side of it. Since then I've had it rebuilt and done a lot of practice.
Will you be using it in QLD?
MATTHEW: Yes I will…if it gets there on time.
What are your thoughts on how you have been competing in the competition so far?
MATTHEW: I haven't performed well in the first two rounds so I can only do better.
How have you been training for Round 3?
The weather here in Tasmania has made it hard to get out and train. It's also tricky getting hold of training wood where I live. I'm determined to use my own hotsaw in this round so I have been getting used to it. I also have a new crosscut saw which I've been using in training. I have an active job so keeping my body operational with fitness training – gym and up hill running - keeps me in tune.
How many hours a week are you training?
MATTHEW: In addition to my work, I do about 4 – 5 hours a week
Biggest concern going in to round 3?
MATTHEW: I don't have any major concerns. I'm happy to be in the top 8 and will give it my all.
Who do you see as your greatest threat?
MATTHEW: Anyone is capable of beating me in any event, so I'm keeping my eye on all of the guys but the bottom three in particular – Brodie Dingle, Kody Steers and Mitch Argent. I just need to concentrate on what I'm doing and perform the best I can…and not get any DQs.
What does it mean to you to win the title of Australian Champion?
MATHEW: Honestly, it's not going to happen so I haven't given it much thought.
What does it mean to you to make it on the Australian Team and compete in the World Championship?
MATTHEW: It would be wonderful. I've competed for Australia against NZ previously but it would be great to compete internationally. It's such an honour to compete for my country. I don't have too many years left to compete in this format. It's getting harder every time I compete against the young fellas so let's hope this is my year.
Has anything interesting happened in your life – got married, had a child….
MATTHEW: No, nothing at all.

Scientists have made a landmark discovery that could help women minimize or even avoid the risk of having a baby born with congenital birth defects. The study is published April 5 in the international journal Cell.
The scientists, from universities in Australia, Japan, Canada and the United States, including Arizona State University, show for the first time how "nature" and "nurture" interact to increase the severity and likelihood of developing birth defects, including abnormalities in the heart, kidneys, brain, limbs and cranio‐facial regions (cleft palate).
They show how hypoxia, or a period of low oxygen during pregnancy, combined with a genetic risk factor of having only one functioning copy of a gene, dramatically increases the chances of a baby being born with congenital scoliosis, a malformation of the spine that affects around 1 in 1,000.
Sally Dunwoodie, head of the Embryology Laboratory at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute in Sydney, Australia, a professor at the University of New South Wales and the senior author on the study, says the findings take us a step closer to understanding why some people in families develop diseases and others don't, and, importantly, simple strategies that mothers could adopt to help prevent such defects occurring.
"We've long suspected that it is genes or our environment that cause birth defects, but up until now, the majority of these have been largely unknown," says Dunwoodie. "This is the first time anyone in the world has shown that both 'nature' and 'nurture', in combination, are molecularly responsible for causing many birth defects."
"This research is hugely exciting and will help us to genetically diagnose a whole range of birth defects, and give advice to women on how and when to avoid certain activities when pregnant," says Dunwoodie. "We hope it will eventually lead to the development of therapeutics to stop these defects occurring in the first place."
Hypoxia during pregnancy can be caused by a range of circumstances including poorly controlled sugar levels in diabetics, smoking, high altitude, prescription and recreational drug‐use, anemia or a poorly functioning placenta.
"Just as genetic studies of selected families led to the discovery of genes causing breast cancer, this study of the genetics and development of congenital scoliosis will lead to breakthroughs in finding the factors that cause scoliosis, a disorder affecting up to 3 percent of the general population," says co-author Kenro Kusumi, an associate professor in the School of Life Sciences in ASU's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
One of the largest genetic studies focused on congenital scoliosis was led by Kusumi's group. Together with clinical collaborators in Philadelphia and Toronto, the group identified the first case of a patient with congenital scoliosis due to having a single defective copy of the HES7 gene. Previous studies in mice had established that disruptions in this gene could lead to spinal defects, and loss of both copies of this gene had been found in severe cases of spinal deformities. The type of defect found in the patient in the ASU study was shown by Dunwoodie's group to clearly affect the ability of the protein to function normally. This finding meant that having just one, instead of two functioning copies of a known gene from either mother or father, was a major risk factor for causing the abnormal formation of vertebrae in embryonic development.
Dunwoodie's group then went on to test the genetic risk factor in a mouse model combined with an environmental insult in the form of hypoxia. Surprisingly, they found a marked increase in spinal abnormalities in the offspring, when the mothers were exposed to only 8 hours of low oxygen during an entire 21‐day pregnancy.
"We found that the combination of the genetic risk as well as exposure to low oxygen, resulted in our subjects being up to 10 times more likely to develop congenital scoliosis, than those that only had the genetic risk factor," says Dunwoodie.
"What this brief period of low oxygen essentially did was disrupt the pathway responsible for development of the spine, and we know that the same pathway is used in the development of limbs and many organs, including the heart, kidneys, brain and cranio‐facial region," adds Dunwoodie.
Bob Graham, a professor and executive director of the cardiac research institute, says around 25 percent of patients with congenital scoliosis also have some form of congenital heart defect, indicating that a single environmental 'insult' such as hypoxia, can potentially affect the development of more than one organ in the body.
"This study provides a new paradigm for the interaction between our genes and environment, and may account for a lot of diseases that we haven't understood before, such as many different forms of congenital heart disease, and conditions like cleft palate," says Graham.
Kusumi points to a recent genetic study of over 50,000 identical twins that emphasizes that the risk of developing disease arises from the environment acting together with a person's unique genome. "For scoliosis, our study highlights how environmental conditions, such as lack of oxygen reaching the developing embryo, could interact uniquely with each individual's genetic differences to increase the risk of birth defects," said Kenro.
"It may not necessarily be a lack of oxygen that allows the underlying gene defect to be revealed, it could be a lot of other environmental factors, such as anemia or lack of folate. But the message is, if you have family history of disease or you know you have a defective gene, mums need to be extra careful during pregnancy," adds Graham.
The team of researchers has begun working on similar studies in congenital heart defects, which affect around 1 in every 100 babies born world-wide every year.

Maslon Edelman Borman & Brand, LLP Announces Name Change:
Maslon LLP
December 31, 2014
Maslon Edelman Borman & Brand, LLP, is pleased to announce that effective January 1, 2015, the firm will be known formally as Maslon LLP.
The new name reflects the evolution of the firm's identity in the marketplace, already commonly referred to as "Maslon," and appropriately represents the firm's original founder, Samuel H. Maslon, a distinguished Harvard Law graduate and renowned Twin Cities attorney. Although the name is changing, the firm will continue to honor the founding principles Samuel Maslon set forth with his esteemed partners Hyman Edelman and Marvin Borman in 1956 and the Honorable Irving R. Brand in 1966—each dedicated to integrity and excellence in the practice of law, as well as profound service to the community.
"Our firm has always taken great pride in its history. I had the privilege of working directly with all four of our named partners and admired them greatly. Their legacy of excellence and integrity is important to us, so the decision to change the firm name was not made lightly and is a little bittersweet. However, we feel strongly that it is the right decision for the firm at this time," stated Bill Pentelovitch, partner and trial lawyer of more than 40 years.
Under the new name, the full-service commercial law firm will continue to offer strategic counsel and exceptional service in the principal areas of Business & Securities, Financial Services, and Litigation—with nationally recognized practices in Business Litigation, Construction Litigation, Tort & Product Liability, and Appeals—and is focused on developing client relationships built on trust, commitment, and respect.
"Much like our clients, it's essential that we continue to evolve and align our business with the changing marketplace and the needs of those we serve. The new name is part of that strategic vision—and we feel it will build a stronger, more defined identity for the firm," shared Joe Alexander, managing partner and commercial lawyer of over 30 years.
Maslon's name change was featured in the January 1, 2015, Business Section of the Minneapolis Star Tribune in an article titled, "Law Firm Makes it Simple: Maslon."

Chapter Four Pacific Isle
Cloud, Star, Comet and Aurora nibbled at their meal. Star had heated milk and oatmeal, browned toast, and fried ham and green tomatoes. The sound of breaking waves provided a gentle background for their conversation.
A rare consensus of the four indicated that more permanent quarters were wanted as soon as possible. That meant a new island. This one was too small, and mostly wave-washed in a major storm. They'd stayed here for a few days, preparing to deal with the Andesians. Cloud had slept in a sleeping bag on lawn furniture. Comet and Aurora had shared an air mattress and Comet's oversize Ultra-R blanket. Star's experiment with a hammock, 'just like in a pirate ship', proved abortive, Star soon announcing that it was impossible to sleep with your back bent in knots. They all agreed: This was not a place for a permanent base. In fact , it was not a great place to sleep, unless they were staying out of sight, so they would return to Pickering's home this evening.
Aurora looked over her shoulder, listening to a silent voice. "Eclipse. She'll be here any moment."
True to Aurora's words, the brilliant glissando of an unseen harpsichord announced Eclipse's appearance in their midst. The older girl brushed snow from her cape and perched on a driftwood log.
"It didn't work," Eclipse announced wanly. "Not at all." She told herself that she would not beg for a food, no matter how frigid Star's cooking smelled.
"Where's you go?" Star asked. "Someplace real cold. Pluto?"
"Antarctica. Not real cold. That's only water snow." She shivered and drew her cape around her shoulders.
"You got cold from Antarctica?" a disbelieving Cloud challenged.
"Cold enough." She touched his face with the back of her hand. "This isn't winter-weight garb. And I was there for hours."
He jerked away. "You're like ice!" he exclaimed.
"I tried something for you," a downfaced Eclipse said. "I tried listening. I can't listen hard near people. It's too loud. So: Antarctica. I found a crevasse in the ice, out of the wind. I grounded everything, every gift to zero, and listened."
"What did you hear?" Comet asked.
"Silence," Eclipse answered. "Total mentalic silence. There must be no telepaths in the world now, anywhere but Tibet. And we already knew about them and the Andesians. Those people were loud. Before the change, when I did this I could hear all the ungifteds in the world and their mentalic whispering. From all the mentalic gifts I'd hear a background moan like bees in a hive. Here it's quiet. Even the Currents of the Earth are stilled."
"Currents of the Earth?" Cloud asked. "Ocean currents?"
"Mentalic currents," Eclipse said quietly. "If you listen hard, mentalically, when it's real quiet, the Earth sings tunes to itself, songs in scales that don't exist any more. Songs of Atlanticea and Autumnlost, Tsolrin and Rome and Marik. The Earth sang to itself. Not now. It's silent. I'm cold, I didn't help you guys plan, and didn't do anything that worked. I'm sorry."
"You tried," Star said. "We didn't plan yet. We just finished breakfast. So you can help us." He patted her on the shoulder. "It really was cold there! Your cape's half-frozen." A thoughtful pause. "There's an extra cup if you'd like tea."
"Please?" she asked.
"First we talk," said Aurora. "All of us. There's time. I'll make Eclipse breakfast. She obviously hasn't eaten, because you can't listen hard if you eat first. Besides, Eclipse cooked for us at Alex's." Aurora wondered if Star would notice what she said. Boys were so entirely hintless.
"Janie," Star protested. "You! Cook? Who are you trying to poison?" He shuddered and gestured at serving dishes. "There's plenty for Eclipse. If she'll eat my cooking."
Eclipse flashed a grin at him.
"Hints," Aurora announced, shifting her weight slightly to let Eclipse reach the food. "We've been here for weeks! Where are the hints?"
"Weren't you collecting them, Aurora?" Cloud asked innocently. They were all details, after all. Collecting them had to be girl's work.

Boys & Girls Club announces Summer Food program
For the Rapids City Times
WISCONSIN RAPIDS — Stressing the importance of offering nutritious meals to children during the summer months, the Boys & Girls Club of the Wisconsin Rapids Area announces the sponsorship of the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP).
The SFSP, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and is administered by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, provides nutritious meals to children during the summer, when free and reduced-price school meals are typically unavailable. Free meals will be made available to children 18 years of age and under. Persons over 18 years of age, who are determined by a state or local public educational agency to be mentally or physically disabled and who also participate in a public or private non-profit school program during the regular school year, may receive meals as well.
"This program fills a void created when school lunches are not available," said Kent Anderson. "Helping parents meet the nutritional needs of their children is the strength of this program."
Meals will be available at McMillian Memorial Library on June 25, July 9, 16, 23, & 30 and Boys & Girls Club of the Wisconsin Rapids Area – Pitsch Unit June 17-Aug. 23.

2023: Govs take charge, as uncertainty hovers over Osinbajo, Tinubu
Uncertainties within the All Progressives Congress, APC as to the direction ahead of the 2023 General Election was at the weekend beginning to clear with postulations of Nigeria's powerful governors increasingly emerging to drive the process.
The coming out of the governors, it was gathered, and the seeming unwillingness of President Muhammadu Buhari to identify with either Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and national APC leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has put the two potential successors in a quandary.
The prospect of both campaigns consuming one another in a mutual war of destruction it was learnt, was now making their strategists to pull back after initial gestures of war.
Osinbajo's fate is not helped by the claim of a 'trust deficit' that arose from his time as Acting President in 2018. Since then, President Buhari has not again transferred presidential powers to his deputy.
Though Osinbajo has not formally declared a presidential bid, signs of a national mobilisation with political actors seemingly working to set up structures for him across the country continue to echo here and there.
After the seemingly easy effort of the governors' points man, Dr. Kayode Fayemi in projecting his nominee, Biodun Oyebanji as the party's candidate in the 2022 Ekiti State governorship candidate, it was gathered that their next step would be in determining the party's national chairman and other executive positions.
Normally confidential sources in the APC disclosed that the contest for national chairman of the ruling party was at weekend narrowing to a two-man race with former Governor Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa State and erstwhile minister of solid minerals, Alhaji Bawa Bwari as the main contenders.
The governors, it was learnt, were now waiting on President Buhari for a final choice between the two men.
The determination of the governors to frame the National Executive and then determine the presidential candidate was despite the seeming visibility of the campaigns for Osinbajo and Tinubu.
A high level presidential source speaking on the condition of anonymity while underlining the trust deficit was quick to also note the influence of the governors who he said would determine the direction.
"Yes, the trust issue is not something that can be swept away easily, it is there, but you cannot remove the role of the governors who are the ones laying the bed.
"You don't expect them to lay the bed for someone else to come and lie on," the source said.
On how the vice-president is drawing his strength, the presidential aide said: "Well, you know he meets with the governors monthly for the NEC (National Economic Committee) and maybe he is deriving his strength from that.
"He meets with them and goes to commission their projects, even projects of opposition governors and maybe he is depending on that," the high level source said with a dose of sarcasm.
The trust issue that is being weaved around Osinbajo flows from his actions as Acting President when he sacked Lawal Daura as Director General of the Department of State Services, DSS and also forwarded the nomination of Walter Onnoghen as Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN.

Here is an email from Annette Russ, one of our students from the 99th graduating class:
Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 4:10 PM
To: Amber Chiang
Subject: Graduation Spring 2013
Hello Ms. Chiang,
I just wanted to give the college a huge shout out for last Friday's graduation. I graduated from a college in northern California about 27 years ago, and have gone back to further my education. I was one of the fortunate graduates of the 99 TH graduating class and I must say it was amazing. I felt so proud of Bakersfield college in how they preform their ceremony. The instructors who were giving high fives and hugs as we walked out was truly the best part. I really felt that they cared for me, even though many did not know me. I felt they all were proud of us and that is awesome.
Thanks again for a great ceremony.

Each interview lasts around an hour, which means that usually a lull is inevitable at some stage in the conversation, but at the same time this is what makes the interviews unique. In the space of an hour the guests quickly exhaust their standard answers and Herring allows the conversation to drift to unexpected places, often prompting unexpected responses from the guests. Herring's interviewing style is to essentially take up different personas, depending on the guest and topic. Talking to Mary Beard, for example, he is intelligent and curious, but with Greg Davies he is energetic and jovial. This freedom to be a completely different show each week is another reason that these are interviews like no others. There are occasions on which he misjudges the tone, either confusing or offending the guest with bizarre questions, but these same questions are often the ones which produce the most interesting answers.
The guests range from big names (recent guests include Russell Howard, Sarah Millican and Matt Lucas) to up and coming comedians and actors, and this variety makes for something of a lucky dip. Although the majority of the guests are comedians of some description, there are also episodes with writers, actors and academics. While it is interesting to hear revered people like The Goodies talk about their careers, often it is the more obscure interviewees that make for funnier listening, because Herring is less reverential towards them. Although some episodes have the tendency to become background noise, there are some real gems. Greg Davies and David Mitchell's episodes stand out for comedy, while Jon Ronson's episode is fascinating. The episode (yet so much more than just an episode) with Brian Blessed is a must-watch.
Regular questions include "Have you ever seen a ghost?" and "If you had to be in a human centipede with two other people, who would you choose?"
The joy of RHLSTP is that it feels like a little club (in fact donors can receive Beano Club-style badges). There are catch phrases and inside-jokes which often confuse the guest as much as they entertain the audience, for example the 'Emergency Questions'. Regular questions include "Have you ever seen a ghost?" and "If you had to be in a human centipede with two other people, who would you choose?". For regular listeners, Herring becomes a companion, and even when things go wrong, for example in the frosty Stephen Merchant interview, the listener's sympathies lie with Herring. Though the inside-jokes could be off putting to new listeners, the best episodes have enough individual merit to engage sceptical listeners.
There are upwards of 200 episodes of the podcast available, so ultimately there will be something for everyone. If you think of a comedian, they've probably done a RHLSTP episode. Unless they're too famous. Or have a grievance against Richard Herring. Or they recorded one but didn't allow it to go out. Each episode is available through your podcast provider and most are filmed for YouTube. For true devotees, there are opportunities to see the recordings live on tour, with two recent shows in Newcastle at The Stand selling out and various future dates elsewhere.

Lewis Carroll wrote "I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then". That's something people need to consider before they start clamoring for Turner Gills triumphant return to Buffalo.
It's not that Gill betrayed Buffalo when he ran off. Nobody can fault someone for taking a four hundred percent pay increase which also relocates them to a school where their kid is enrolled. It was the right move for Gill, and not a dishonorable one but it was the end of his relationship with the Bulls.
Now two years later Gill has flopped and is out of a job.
The only thing that stopped opponents offenses this season was mercy. In a conference where many teams are trying to pile on points to satisfy the BCS poll driven system teams were burying the Jay Hawks so badly that they actually let up long before the waning moments of the game.
So Turner Gill is out of a job yet six million dollars richer, such is the world of college coaching. You can be run out of town before your recruits are upper class men but chances are you'll have some money to tide you over. Gill's take amounts to what he would have been paid if he had stayed at Buffalo for a dozen years.
Yes, some people have started to talk about how much they miss the Turner Gill days, and how great it would be if Sir Gill stormed Amherst and established a second kingdom with Buffalo. I am not among them!
Here is why...
This is not the Bulls program that greeted Coach Gill the last time:
Is it time for a coaching change in Amherst? Fans will argue about it but the need for a new coach, or to stick it out with Quinn is neither here nor there. As bad as things seem to be with coach Quinn I am pretty sure that Warde Manual would still have an easier time finding a coach than he did back in 2005.
In 2005 nobody returned Warde's calls, folks turned off the lights and pretended not to be home when he dropped by, and if he did get them on the line they pretended to be driving through a tunnel, on their land lines. Yes it was that bad in 2005 because Buffalo had never proven it could be competitive with even the most moribund of Bowl subdivision teams let alone mediocre championship sub division teams.
Turner Gill built a respectable program over the course of a few years, one that made hiring his replacement far easier and that momentum would still carry through to the next hire. Buffalo fans owe a lot to Turner Gill but we don't owe him a job.
This program needs to win with a different coach. Maybe that coach is Quinn or maybe its not but we don't need Gill anymore and running back to him is not a move towards a structurally healthier UB Program.
Turner Gill is not the same name he was last time:
Gill got the Kansas job because he shuffled around (Starks as a defensive back, Scott as a tight end) Hofhers recruits and he did wel in his own right recruiting with Buffalo. He was not in the top half of MAC recruiters during his stint but he did pull in some nice players.
But that Turner Gill is gone. The mess at Kansas transformed Gill from a plucky underdog winning where its never been done to a coach that was embarrassed by an FCS team in his Kansas Debut, and finished 1-16 against his conference.
In 2009 the recruiting calls started:
Hi I'm Turner Gill, maybe you have heard of me. I took a team that never won more than a couple of games a year to a conference championship. Want to come play for me?
Today it might start like this
Hi I'm Turner Gill, maybe you have heard of me. I took a team two years removed from the rose bowl and never won more than a couple of games a year. Want to come play for me?
Can Gill still connect with players? I'm sure he can, that's always been his strength but now he is carrying some career baggage with him which would hamper his recruiting.
Turner Gill, like all of us, has some issues:
No man is a saint. I firmly believe that if you put any person under a magnifying glass you're going to find some serious character flaws and Gill is no exception. So when I say he has "some issues" I am merely stating he is human not the well mannered and completely likable Caricature that people try to sell.
Gill's behavior is just about always been above the board and in general he seems to get along with most people but there was a fair bit of back biting in Buffalo stuff that never hit the presses, stuff that was not all that press worthy. His departure, however, took the common work place discord and blew it up into something a bit bigger.
When he left several coaches were led to believe they too were heading to the wide open pastures of the Big 12 only to be left behind. Worse yet when they were looking around for other work they found that sub par references from "unnamed sources" shut more than a couple of doors.
If Gill did burn bridges with a few on the UB coaching staff than it stands to reason there might be other burned bridges withing UB athletics.
It would be a bad move for Gill:
Gill is not even fifty years old yet. While many are trying to characterize his career as a smoking crater that's just not the case. He is a proven enough coach and recruiter to find his way onto someones coaching staff. Maybe he goes back to a coordinator role, perhaps back to an office job in the NFL.
If Jim Hofher can still be in coaching so can Turner Gill, so long as he does not try to relive the past.
Two things happen if Turner Gill comes back to Buffalo.
He manages to put together a winning team in which case has has a job, in Buffalo. The move to Kansas proves that Gill is not interested in a long term stay at UB but he would need at least a half dozen or so good years before anyone would touch him again and even then it won't be an AQ program.
Alternatively he could fail to bring the team back up to the 2008 level. What then? Failing in back to back head coaching gigs might make that smoking crater a reality.
I wish Turner Gill the best. He is a decent man who took a shot at Buffalo when nobody else would. He treated his players right, gave the fans something for which to cheer. Unfortunately the relationship ended when Gill left, such is the life of a mid major. Perhaps long terms things might have been better if he had stayed but sometimes you just cant go home again.

The Best Way to Decorate the Reception Tent
Tent weddings are a beautiful way to bring the outdoors into your party. Depending on how you decorate them, the tents can feel like anything from a free form garden party to a elaborate glamorous affair. It's all in the decor. The best way to instantly dress up a tent is to make use of the ceiling space. Many couples hang decorations to add extra charm up above. We love the idea and put together some of our favorites. Which one do you like best?

The Makeup behind the Magic
Now that you've seen all the looks from our styled shoot at Hotel Viking, it's time for the makeup secrets. Makeup artist Lyndsay Simon created the looks and gave us the deets in a behind the scenes interview.
For Leila's look I wanted to give her really fresh radiant skin, with a soft contoured eye. This look goes perfectly with her girly and fun dresses. I massaged Embryollisse Lait Creme and Anti-Age Re-Densifying Serum into her skin and followed with Makeup For Ever Ultra HD foundation to ever her complexion. I popped on NARS Orgasm cream blush with my fingers to the apples of her cheeks, and illuminated the high points of her face with MAC Soft and Gentle highlighter. Her eye look is softly contoured with the Viseart Matte Neutral palette and a champagne Inglot loose pigment. To finish her look, I applied my favorite bridal lip color, Inglot #63 lip paint, a gorgeous combination of a lipstick and a gloss, for a creamy pop of pink to match her cheeks. For her second look, her dress was more simplistic, so I went with a rose-toned lipstick to warm up her look.
Joanna's first dress has a very bohemian feel, and I wanted to bring that relaxed essence into her makeup while still bringing fourth the glamour aspect that she loves. Her skin is more on the matte side with some light contouring to bring out her gorgeous cheekbones. I always use a cream foundation one to two shades darker and cooler than the skin to mimic the shade of natural shadows on the face. I rimmed Joanna's eyes with Inglot #77 black gel liner to define her eyes and smoked it out with some matte brown shades with a pop of bronze pigment on her lid. I love the sex appeal the smokey eye gave to the look, and so did she! We finished the look off with a rosy matte lip and cheek to pull the whole look together.
Sarah's first dress had a vintage-feel to it. I gave her a very sleek winged liner to bring the retro glamour into her makeup. I placed a cream colored eyeliner into her lower water-line to brighten her eyes up, which is one of my favorite tricks to make the eyes look bigger. To add more definition to her eyebrows, I carefully drew individual hairs into her brow with Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz is Medium Brown for a very natural way to add fullness to the arches. With her first dress, I lined and filled her lips in with Cherry lipliner from MAC and powdered over a tissue to keep from smudging or kissing off. For her second dress, a very detailed pink and cream gown, I applied a glossy, cool-toned pink Lip Paint from Ingot. It isn't a typical bridal color, but the dress had so much character, I had to add a little more sass into her makeup look.

The Snow Queen
I call this dress the snow queen dress. Covered from head to toe in beaded lace (yes that's lace with tens of thousands of beads sewn overtop) tulle and everything that sparkles, this dress is fit for the snow queen herself. Not the girl with a heart like ice but the girl that wants to impress her guests and knows how to do it. When pared with this one-of-a-kind Pricilla of Boston faux fur coat, this dress goes from WOW to HOLY SMOKES! Would you wear this crystal beaded stunner? Tell us why or why not in the comments!

3 Tips for Better Bridal Makeup
You've probably seen some of the pictures from our styled shoot at few weekends ago at Hotel Viking. If you haven't, go check out the first three looks Low Backed Beauty, Boho & Beautiful, and The Ballerina Bride. For the shoot we had makeup artist Lyndsay Simon work her magic. Lyndsay has been doing professional makeup for years and now runs her own business, Lyndsay Simon Beauty and during the shoot we did a mini interview asking her for some tips and tricks!
Tips to Having the Best Wedding Day Makeup:
- Finding the Right Makeup Artist for You – Research artists in your area that have a portfolio filled with images that fit your beauty style. Does that artist produce a range of looks on a variety of faces? Do these makeups translate flawlessly on camera without obvious photo editing? Once you narrow your search down to a few artists, read through reviews past brides have posted. Hopefully, reviews give a good idea of the personality of your artist. Lastly, research your artists rates. If they are much lower than other artists in the area, that may be a warning sign that they use lower quality products. An experienced bridal makeup professional should also provide you with an agreement which guarantees their presence on your big day.
- Choosing Your Look – After booking your makeup artist, the next step is preparing for your makeup design appointment or makeup trial. Create a mood board with a collection of images and looks you feel are timeless and will be beautiful for years to come. I always tell my brides to save the trendy looks for their bachelorette party or boudoir photos, and keep their wedding day look romantic and soft. When describing your vision to your artist, bring in photos of your dress, hairstyle, venue and color scheme to help pull inspiration for your look. Pull inspiration from colors, textures, and intensities. Pictures go so much further than words when describing your desired look. Show your artist what you mean by a "smokey eye" or "nude lip". Most times, your definition of these terms will differ from your artists. Being clear with your artist will make locking down a look easy and enjoyable.
- Skin Is Always In – Taking care of your skin leading up to your wedding day is so important for your makeup to look its best. Removing any unwanted facial hair (I'm obsessed with threading!), getting regular facials, moisturizing, and exfoliating every few days will make a noticeable difference in the way that makeup sits on your skin. Water will be your most important beauty ritual. It plumps the skin, flushes out toxins, and gives your skin an overall healthy glow.
How did you get into being a makeup artist: Growing up I was always obsessed with beauty in the human form. It all began with a little purple Covergirl eyeshadow kit my classmate brought me in third grade. After proceeding to expertly apply the shadow on my face (so I thought, anyways) and parade around the classroom, I was told by my teacher to wash my face and take a letter she wrote home to my parents. Being the mini-rebel I was, I ripped open the envelope on the bus and was horrified to read the word "ridiculous" to describe my self expression. Ever since, I was determined to prove the world wrong and create looks that made individuals feel beautiful and fearless. After many years of doing makeup on thousands of faces, from special effects to clean beauty, bridal makeup has become one of my favorite mediums.

In the volumetric projection chapter of Make It So, we note that sci-fi makers take pains to distinguish the virtual from the real most often with a set of visual treatments derived from the "Pepper's Ghost" parlor trick, augmented with additional technology cues: translucency, a blue tint, glowing whites, supersaturated colors for wireframed objects, clear pixels and/or flicker, with optional projection rays.
Prometheus has four types of VPs that adhere to this style in varying degrees. Individual displays (with their interactions) are discussed in other posts. This collection of posts compares their styles. This particular post describes the alien VPs.
The two alien VPs are quite different from the human VPs in appearance and behavior. The first thing to note is that they adhere to the Pepper's Ghost style more readily, with glowing blue-tinted whites and transparency. Beyond that they differ in precision and implied technology.
Precision VPs
The first style of alien VP appears in the bridge of the alien vessel, where projection technology can be built into the architecture. The resolution is quite precise. When the grapefruit-sized Earth gets close to the camera in one scene, it appears to have infinite resolution, even though this is some teeny tiny percentage of the whole display.
Glowing Pollen
The other alien VP tech is made up of small, blue-white voxels that float, move in space, obey some laws of physics, and provide a crude level of resolution. These appear in the caves of the alien complex where display tech is not present in the walls, and again as "security footage" in the bridge of the alien ship. Because the voxels obey some laws of physics, it's easier to think of them as glowing bits of pollen.
Pollen behavior
These voxels appear to not be projections of light in space, but actual motes that float through the air. When David activates the "security footage" in the alien complex, a wave of this pollen appears and flows past him. It does not pass through him, but collides with him, each collided mote taking a moment to move around him and regain its roughly-correct position in the display. (How it avoids getting in his mouth is another question entirely.) The motes even produce a gust of wind that disturb David's bleached coif.
Pollen inaccuracy
The individual lines of pollen follow smooth arcs through the air, but lines appear to be slightly off from one another.
This style is beautiful and unique, and conveys a 3D display technology that can move to places even where there's not a projector in line of sight. The sci-fi makers of this speculative technology use this inaccuracy to distinguish it from other displays. But if a precise understanding of the shapes being described is useful to its viewers, of course it would be better if the voxels were more precisely positioned in space. That's a minor critique. The main critique of this display is when it gets fed back into the human displays as an arbitrary style, as I'll discuss in the next post about the human-tech, floating-pixel displays.

Pat Morrell's gorgeous leather gloves are some of the best-fitting (and warmest) locally-commissioned fashion items you can give your favorite pair of hands this winter. That perfect fit is due to their custom-made nature. Once Pat has your loved one's measurements, he'll send them off to his partners—a bunch of 4th-generation glovemakers in Dorset, England.
Consider this one an honorable mention, though: You can't actually get a pair of Fitzgerald Morrell gloves before Christmas, as there's a multi-week turnover from the time your hands are measured to the time your gloves arrive on your doorstep. Sorry—durable, bespoke luxury doesn't happen overnight. This one requires the long game of gift giving.
Pictured is the Broughton, a classic men's winter-fashion style. Check out more glove options at fitzgeraldmorrell.com. See our other gift picks here, and pick up a copy of the Holiday Issue for a massive four-page spread of other gift ideas. Stay tuned for more gift options every day until Christmas!

Mint Chocolate Chip Avocado Smoothie tastes like mint chocolate chip ice cream without added sugar! This avocado spinach smoothie is made with greek yogurt, banana, spinach, chocolate, mint leaves, and dates! Avocado shakes for live.
Mint Chocolate Chip Avocado Smoothie is the creamiest avocado shake that will become your new obsession!
This avocado spinach smoothie is the real deal, friends! Creamy, minty fresh and made with wholesome ingredients, this mint smoothie is basically a healthified mint chocolate chip ice cream. Oh, yes!
With St. Patrick's Day upon us, I thought it was only appropriate to share this tasty green smoothie with you guys! And I kept it fresh this holiday by using real ingredients. Instead of adding tons of green food coloring, I'm celebrating over here by using foods that are already green! Check it…
Anyone else absolutely love adding avocado to a smoothie? It makes it sooooo creamy, must be all those good fats 😉
Can you taste avocado in smoothies?
Avocados have a very mild flavor, especially in smoothies. Depending on the other ingredients you add to a smoothie, the avocado does not have much taste!
Especially in this mint chocolate chip avocado smoothie – mint and chocolate are the primary flavors in this avocado spinach smoothie! And the avocado most definitely is to thank for the creaminess.
Do you peel avocados for smoothies?
Most definitely! Make sure you remove the skin and pit before putting the avocado into your blender – only use the flesh of the avocado! Here are a few tips on how to successfully add avocado to your smoothie…
cut avocado lengthwise into two halves
remove pit with a spoon
cut each half into wedges
scoop avocado out of peel with a spoon
Can you make an avocado smoothie the night before?
Yes, yes, yes! I suggest storing it in a cup with a lid or even a mason jar with the lid secured tightly. When you're ready to enjoy it the next morning, simply stir with a straw and dive into the creamy, minty goodness that is this avocado spinach smoothie!
A few more tips for prepping this mint chocolate chip shake.
While you can absolutely blend ahead of time and store in fridge like above, if you want the FRESHEST smoothie, measure out all ingredients the night before and freeze them (all except for the almond milk).
And then just before you're ready to enjoy, pop the frozen ingredients + almond milk into the blender, and blend away to creamy oblivion.
Oh and the chocolate chips sprinkled on top are a must (IMO) so make sure you don't forget them! I hope you guys have the best St. Patrick's Day and remember to enjoy this avocado spinach smoothie to make things festive in your home!

I have so many awesome weddings to blog!! I've been slow to blog these because I didn't have to edit them but now that it's winter/slow season, I am craving photoshoots and editing! I had quite a few opportunities to second shoot this year and it was a blast!! This wedding is one of my favorites of the year! Lindsay and Taylor were such a unique, fun couple to photograph! Lindsay's hair was amazing, the church was so cool, and I'll NEVER forget their reception. It was nonstop fast-paced dancing as you'll see in the shots below! Usually reception shots are my least favorite but surprisingly, these are some of my favorites! I didn't get any portraits of the couple from this wedding because I was shooting reception details but I still think it's worthy of being blogged! Here are my favorites!Second shot with Sera Petras.

I'd like to get folks' thoughts on something. Now I'll preface this with "This was something that was asked for by the players."
For an Action Sequence, the way the rules are written, it's exact in what the GM is supposed to tell the players about a Risk (You will take 3 wounds as a consequence, you have 3 opportunities to grab the rare map, protect the child, and overhear the conversation with the Duke). My players decided they didn't want everything laid out exactly and to make it more 'descriptive' until they actually spend a Raise.
For example:
You need to get across the burning room to the exit on the other side (Risk)
There are burning timbers and fires that could fall on you or catch your clothes on fire unless you spend Raises to avoid them. The damage would be moderate (That would be a keyword for around 3-5 wounds) if you don't negate it
You also see a small pouch lying on a table that's about to be burned (Opportunity)
You also see a door and hear some voices (Opportunity)
You also see some shadows in the corner moving around (Opportunity)
However, the players wouldn't be told what it was exactly until they decided to Negate the Consequence or Exploit the Opportunity. After spending the Raise, the details would become clear: "The pouch jingles from the weight of many coins," "The voices sound like the Duke discussing where he's hidden the jewels" or "The shadows belong to a small child crawling on the ground behind a table."
For the Consequences, once they decided to negate Wounds the amount of Raises spent would be described as "Enough to escape unwounded" or "You'll keep most of the fires at bay but may take a small bit of heat damage."
Has anyone else's players asked for this? Has anyone tried this? I think it's still important to list the 'number' of consequences and opportunities but keeping some details hidden seems to add to the mystery and suspense of whether to spend a Raise on one of them. The main reason for this is that the Heroes aren't omniscient when they 'enter a scene' and especially if the scene is high action there isn't time to plot and plan agonizingly over details.

"I have been visiting a fruiting Muntingia calabura (Local name 'Ceri Kampung' – Village Cherry) every weekend for the past 4 weeks. This tree is an 'import' from South American and has done well locally. In Malaysia it grows very easily and is widespread. The fruit is 1-1.5cm, edible, sweet and juicy, contains a number of small seeds LINK.
"As this particular tree is located at the fringe of the forest reserve, a number of flowerpeckers love to come and feed on this fruit. They usually turn up mid to late morning and often there is much conflict over the fruits.
"One Yellow-vented Flowerpecker (Dicaeum chrysorrheum chrysorrheum) is present on every occasion and seems to have accepted my presence, allowing closer observation. It enjoys the ripe fruit and will harvest 4-5 in the space of 10-15 minutes.
"Although this is among the larger of the flowerpeckers, the fruit of the Muntingia calabura is still hard to manage. The Yellow-vented Flowerpecker will grip the fruit firmly in the beak, squeeze it, tilt upwards and allow the juice to trickle down. This will continue until the fruit is 'deflated' and then on to the next. This is the least 'quarrelsome' of the flowerpeckers foraging at this tree, perhaps the large size intimidates others.
"A video of three feeding events merged together below:
"Note that the 'zit, zit' calls in the background at the beginning of the video are from the Orange-bellied Flowerpecker (Dicaeum trigonostigma). The second part of the clip shows it excited with feeding and watching me and looses the fruit (occurs ~20% of the time). The third part of the clip is a bit blur but does show the deflation of the fruit.
"I have previously observed this flowerpecker feeding on fruits of: Straits Rhododendron (Melastoma malabathricum), Ficus benjamina and Ficus villosa."

Headmaster's Bulletin 19th January 2018
The success we have enjoyed in Music this year has been quite remarkable and the department was further buoyed by the news that five of our most talented KS5 musicians (Matthew Foster, Bradley Wilson, Ellena Teal, Sam Austin and Ethan McInerney) had not only made the final of the annual county wide Film Music competition but also supplied the winning entries. The students were tasked with writing music to accompany clips of 'Polar Exploration' and the quality of the NSB entries were hugely impressive with Ellena and Sam winning the KS5 award and Sam also taking the crown for the overall winner across all age groups. The winning compositions are so good that you can forgive yourself for thinking that you are watching professional productions from the comfort of your own living room. Please Click Here
The U18 Boys football team have made the most of five home draws in their national cup and they will enjoy an unprecedented sixth home tie in a row when they take on Gordon's School from Woking in the last 16 next week. The Year 7 football team are extremely talented with the A and B teams still going strong in the latter stages of their four national cups and their basketball counterparts also have a lot to celebrate.
On Tuesday the basketballers won the Northamptonshire U12 title which makes it the sixth in a row for the school and they then followed this success up with a nail-biting 43pts - 41pts win in the national cup against Aylesbury Grammar with Benas Maldutis scoring an amazing 33pts towards our total.
Aylesbury may be a little weary of seeing the NSB crest at the moment as they came off second best again in a titanic East Midlands 'A' rugby final against our Year 10 rugby team on Wednesday. Facing a first half 12-10 deficit and a stiff wind against, the NSB team showed magnificent heart, desire and discipline to forge their way to a 15pts to 12pts victory which takes them into a national last 8 home tie against perennial rivals, Warwick School. To be still standing in the quarter and semi-finals of the U15 and U18 National Cups from a starting pool of 384 state and private schools pays testimony to a phenomenal rugby season, with a possible double header of a Twickenham visit now a distinct possibility (although Mr Lee and Mr White may not thank me for causing a possible jinx by mentioning it)!
Finally, a reminder that tickets for the New Year Jazz Spectacular on Sunday January 28th, where we are welcoming the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, are on sale from The Box Office with seats moving, unsurprisingly, quickly. Please Click Here

You've probably already heard of Nutcrackers. Should it be because you were told as a child the story of "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" by E.T.A. Hoffmann, had a chance to go to the opera to see Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's ballet "The Nutcracker" or because once as an underage drinker, you tried this namesake cocktail made of juice mixed with vodka.
But nutcrackers are also some endearing objects, some people even dedicate their life to. Here is a short story of where they come from.
Nutcrackers in the form of wooden carvings of a soldier, knight, king, or other profession have existed since at least the 15th century. These nutcrackers portray a person with a large mouth which the operator opens by lifting a lever in the back of the figurine. Originally one could insert a nut in the big-toothed mouth, press down and thereby crack the nut. Modern nutcrackers in this style serve mostly for decoration, mainly at Christmas time. The ballet The Nutcracker derives its name from this festive holiday decoration.
(the above photo series depicts three nutcrackers "salvaged" from a flea market in Upper Austria – price: 1€ each)
The carving of nutcrackers—as well as of religious figures and of cribs—developed as a cottage industry in forested rural areas of Germany. The most famous nutcracker carvings come from Sonneberg in Thuringia (also a center of dollmaking) and from the Ore Mountains. Wood-carving usually provided the only income for the people living there. Today the travel industry supplements their income by bringing visitors to the remote areas.
Steinbach Nutcrackers have become popular in the United States as well, and the recreated "Bavarian village" of Leavenworth, Washington, even features a nutcracker museum. Many other materials also serve to make decorated nutcrackers, such as porcelain, silver, and brass; the museum displays samples.
Carvings by famous names like Junghanel, Klaus Mertens, Karl, Olaf Kolbe, Petersen, Christian Ulbricht and especially the Steinbach nutcrackers have become collectors' items.
The United States Postal Service (USPS) in October 2008 issued four stamps with Nutcrackers for the first time. These featured custom-made Nutcrackers made by Richmond, Virginia, artist Glenn Crider.

News 9/1/15
Top News
In light of the continued absence of a final Meaningful Use rule from CMS (not to mention a need to drum up discussion topics in time for its conference next month) MGMA calls on the agency to extend the reporting period for medical groups into 2016, and to move to a 90-day reporting period thereafter. For those still keeping track, CMS issued its proposed final rule back in April. (I'm currently taking bets CMS will publish the final rule at 5 pm ET this Friday as everyone heads off for the long Labor Day weekend.) In making the announcement, MGMA President and CEO Halee Fischer-Wright, MD emphasized what physicians and vendors alike have been grumbling about for months: "Without having a definitive set of program measures, and sufficient time to incorporate them into EHR software and practice workflow, medical groups simply cannot responsibly transition to the modified Stage 2 requirements without a massive drop-off in participation. Providing this flexibility will permit groups additional time to upgrade their EHRs to the revised Stage 2 specifications and test these systems to ensure that they are able to conform to program requirements while meeting the practical needs of clinicians and their patients. An extension of the 2015 reporting year is absolutely vital to continued program success."
HIStalk Practice Announcements and Requests
I don't typically give much thought to my home office aside from being grateful that I don't have to spend an obscene amount of time in traffic twice a day. This article, however, has prompted me to reconsider the space I spend so much time in. I do have a shed out back that could easily be converted into a small but chic workspace. Perhaps I should go the "She Shed" route. I'd love to hear how HIStalk Practice readers have jazzed up their home office spaces. Inspire me with your ideas and pictures.
I suppose I should also be grateful that I don't have to worry about co-working thieves stealing my lunch from a communal kitchen. Jars of Nutella are apparently such a hot commodity that German furniture designer Daniel Schobloch invented a lock to keep thieving hands away and self-control in place (at least for the amount of time it takes to find the key). "[T]he idea started out as a joke," he says. "One of my friends was always getting worked up because his children were stealing his Nutella." Schobloch's funny idea has turned into a sold-out line available for pre-order on Ebay for about $11.
September 9 (Wednesday) 2:00 ET. "Need to cleanse, unify and manage the provider data in your EMR master file and other IT systems?" Phynd's Unified Provider Management platform allows healthcare organizations to maintain a single, verified, customized profile for each provider across legacy IT systems. This 30-minute presentation will explain how Phynd's system can help synchronize internal provider information in real time; create provider interoperability among systems; and manage, update, and analyze provider information with workflow tools to improve revenue cycle and clinical communication.

Medical dictation startup Skywriter MD looks to raise $1.5 million as part of a $2 million round it will use to fund a planned expansion this December.

Announcements and Implementations
IDC names RelayHealth a leader in clinical data exchange in its latest MarketScape report. The company, which manages 2.8 billion transactions annually, was tapped by CommonWell earlier this year to manage its data access services, record locator, and identity and consent management.

Over 20 Minnesota lawmakers write to members of Congress urging them to pass legislation that would expand Medicare coverage to include telemedicine services. Co-author Rep. Joe Schomacker was instrumental in passing legislation earlier this year requiring Minnesota's private payers to reimburse providers for care via telemedicine.
In related news, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota selects Doctor on Demand as its preferred telemedicine provider beginning in 2016. BCBS is the largest private payer in the state, giving Doctor on Demand a distinct advantage over its CVS Health partners, Teladoc and American Well.
Research and Innovation
Navicure releases the results of its fourth ICD-10 readiness survey, noting that a greater percentage of practice administrators and billing managers are prepared for ICD-10 than the last time the survey was conducted. The majority this time around are still optimistic they'll be ready by October 1, yet 57 percent believe they aren't on track with preparations for the transition. Though contradictory, the findings line up with the fact that 35 percent of respondents didn't participate in end-to-end testing. Seems to me like unprepared physician practices are relying on sheer optimism to see them through the switch.
On an ICD-10 side note, a friend tells me AHIMA, taking place September 26-30 in New Orleans, will likely be a ghost town this year thanks to the October 1 deadline. She's says it's a safe bet that most providers and many vendors will skip the show to hunker down and prepare for the 1st. I assume any providers that do attend work for organizations that have had their ducks in a row for quite awhile. I'd love reader commentary and pictures proving or disproving her theory.
Mayo Clinic (MN) and Hootsuite partner to offer medial professionals social media training and certification. No doubt it's a timely move for EPs given how much I've seen "Why Your Doctor Won't Friend You on Facebook" circulating over the last two weeks. I believe that the average independent PCP will likely see little value. (I'd love to know how much the course costs, but the link to registration details is dead.) I imagine they're too busy preparing for ICD-10 and making assumptions about the Meaningful Use schedule to set aside time for a course on how to tweet in a HIPAA-friendly manner. Feel free to chime in via the comments below on the value your practice or group derives from social networking, and whether you'd benefit from formal training.
