How To: Create a Genius Playlist on the iPhone or iPod Touch
One of the new features in the iPhone and iPod Touch 2.1 firmware is the ability to create Genius Playlists on the fly, and right on the device. iTunes 8 introduced the concept of Genius Playlists, which like Pandora and Last.fm, use algorithms based on audio profiling, metadata matching, and (anonymously acquired) end user tastes, crunched in the Apple cloud. Basically, they take a song you like, what you typically like with it (what playlists you include it on), what others who like it also like (what playlists they include it on), and what music mathematically (tempo, tone, etc.) fits in with it. Then they try to predict other songs you might also like -- in this case already on your iPhone -- and whip you up a near-instant playlist on-demand.
How good is it? That depends entirely on how much music you have on your iPhone (the pool from which it can draw), how closely the metadata matches what's in iTunes (or it won't recognize your music -- try tweaking the fields if you have trouble), and how many other users have contributed their data to the cloud (because the engine will supposedly get better and better the more information it's fed).
Okay, so enough about what Genius Playlists are, how do we get them working on our iPhone? Full instructions after the jump!
UPDATE: In order to use Genius Playlists on your iPhone, you have to have the Genius service enabled under iTunes 8, and if you are manually managing your music, have at least one iTunes playlist you've dragged to your iPhone (otherwise the iPhone Genius service will not initialize). Also, as mentioned above, if you didn't get your music via iTunes, make sure you copy iTunes' metadata as closely as possible or Genius may not recognize your songs. For more, check out the comments below. (Thanks Matt for the tips!)
First, from your iPhone or iPod Touch home screen, tap the iPod App icon. Next, tap on the Playlist button at the bottom (if you've customized your layout, you may have to tap More.. first, then hit Playlists). From the top of the playlist screen, tap Genius.
The iPod App will slide up a song chooser. Flick-scroll your way through it until you find a "seed" song you want to use to generate your Genius playlist around. If you don't have enough music on your iPhone similar to the "seed" song, iPod App will pop up a dialog box to alert you. No worries, pick another song! When you find one Genius can work with, a new, automagically generated playlist will slide up.
If you hate the playlist, just tap New and start again. If it's okay, but not great, tap Refresh and Genius will use the same "seed" to generate a new, differently ordered playlist (and if you have tons of music, with variations in the exact songs selected). If you loves it, tap Save, and your awesome new Genius list (named after your original "seed" song) will be added to your existing playlists. Get sick of it later? Go back to Playlists, choose it, and hit Edit. From there you can Refresh for variety, or Delete for eternity.
jna from the comments points out that you can also create a Genius List on-the-fly while listening to a song. Just tap to enable the heads-up controls and then hit the Genius icon in the middle. Voila!
Give it a try, and brilliant lists or total duds, let us know just how dazzling your Genius is!

How To: Create a Genius Playlist on the iPhone or iPod Touch
The problem must be with you manually managing your music. I had this same problem and here's the fix:
In iTunes, click on a song and then the Genius button.
Click on "Save Playlist" at the top of the list of songs. This will create a playlist in your "playlists" section of iTunes.
Drag the newly created playlist up to your iPhone. It'll create a Genius playlist on your iPhone but more importantly the Genius function now appears to work on the iPhone itself.
Thanks!! Worked!
Excellent tip! Thanks much for contributing!
I heard it works. Better on iTunes
This is probably due to either lack of amount of plays or incorrect meta-data. When Genius goes to look for similar things it's looking for certain album, artist, genre, etc. If it's not entered right like in the iTunes store, then you won't get any results.
Now if certain songs are working iTunes and not on your iPod then that sounds like a bug.
I'm actually quite fond of this feature, when it was announced I didn't think I would have much use for it, but it's surprisingly accurate with my tastes.
I have about 2000 songs and most of the time I am able to create a playlist. One thing that is really annoying about this is that there is no support for any of my Beatles songs becasue they aren't in the iTunes Store. That's my major gripe so far to be honest, but otherwise it's been going pretty well.
Have to put this "GENIUS" thing to test
At the bottom of the Genius playlist it says "25 Songs". How can one create a playlist with 50 or 100 songs (as in iTunes)? I know one can always do a Refresh, but the fact that it says "25 Songs" seems to imply that there's some way of creating a playlist with a different number of songs. Couldn't find anything in Settings > Music. Thanks in advance.
Gotta wonder what kind of algorithm this thing uses, by the way. I generated a playlist and it included both "Black Blade" by Blue Oyster Cult, and "Whispering" by Nino Tempo and April Stevens. Huh? ;-)
I think you can also create a genius playlist "on the fly"- When you are playing a song you like so much you want to create a playlist from it, tap just underneath the song name so that the bar that shows your progress through the song appears. In the middle of this bar will be the genius symbol. Click on it and "presto" brand new playlist. You can actually make a chain of playlists each time you hit a great song use it to generate a new playlist- endless chain-o-genius...
Thanks jna, I'll add that to the post!
I downloaded the itunes 8 and the 2.1 update and i got genius and everything and i registered genius and everything but it doesnt work on my ipod touch. I have made many playlists on the computer and then put them on my ipod, but when u try to use genius on my ipod it just says that it is not enabled. i do not know what to do. any suggestions??
I'm trying Genius on my iPhone and it keeps saying for this one particular song that i don't have enough songs to go with it. But when i do it on iTunes, it works. I've tried putting the one i made on iTunes on my phone, and then making a playlist, but it still says i don't have enough songs.
hi, please can you instruct me how to create a video playlists. i want my videos to be organized.
If you're looking for a way to easily create playlists on the iPhone/iPod Touch with a more intuitive interface than Genius, definitely check out "Forgotten Favorites." It just got accepted to the App Store and we couldn't be happier with the response we're getting (Disclosure: I'm on the development team).
Might be what you're looking for... there's also a YouTube video if you're curious.
ARGH!!!! all my songs don't work for the genius playlist, saying that there isn't enough, where each song i have has a lot of songs in it's album, and a lot of different albums with same artists. It's really annoying and also, I tried updating it a bunch of times, and it never works. Any tips? or is it b/c the songs i download aren't from itunes? ..that's stupid
I used genius on my computer to create automatic genius mixes, and for a while it worked fine on my iPod touch. But now, possibly since the last software update, there is no longer a genius menu containing these mixes, though the genius function to create a new playlist based on a particular song does work on the iPod. Any suggestions for where the genius mixes went? I can't seem to drag them onto the iPod on the computer (they're still present on the computer).
Oh god. That's me, too. It never gets any easier. I tend to just let it build up until there's a acslople and just my feet can be seen poking out, followed by a series of muffled distress calls. It's then search and rescue teams go in and pull me out. But their patience is wearing thin. Of course they don't accept Rupert's no. 3. They hope for Rupert's no. 2. But I'm inclined as the years go by towards the apocalyptic resolution of Rupert's no.1. Now where's those matches

Rossendale United F.C. is an English football club based in Newchurch, near Rawtenstall, Lancashire. The club was formed in 1898 and currently plays in the Northern Premier League Division One North. Rossendale United Football Club have had a long and eventful existence which has seen a lot of success, but also long periods of hardship that has brought the club's existence into doubt on many occasions.
1899/1900 brought a third new League, and the first silverware to the club. The Central Lancashire League Championship was won at the first attempt, a feat that would have been repeated the following season but for teams withdrawing part way through the competition meaning the loss of vital points which were to prove costly at the end.
In 1901/02 Rossendale United began their long association with the Lancashire Combination. The club played in the League for 69 years until they left to join the Cheshire County League in 1970. Success was spread pretty thin on the ground during those years, one Division One Championship win in 1926/27, Runners-Up in 1954/55 and a Division Two Championship in 1956/57 being the only League success.
The Combination Cup was also won twice, in 1929 and 1944, with Rossendale bringing home the Lancashire Junior Cup in 1912 thanks to a 2-1 win over Eccles Borough in the Final. It was also during that time the clubs greatest ever goal scorer, Bob Scott, played for Rossendale United. Between 1959 and 1974 he netted 223 goals in just 203 appearances, including an astonishing 72 goals in the 1959/60 season.
It was when the club left the Combination for the Cheshire League in 1970 that success started to come. The Championship was won at the first attempt in 70/71, with Runners-Up spot claimed in 71/72 and 73/74. Eight other trophies were to arrive at Dark Lane in just five seasons. The Cheshire League Cup, Cheshire League Challenge Shield, Lancashire Floodlit Trophy (twice), Lancashire Floodlit League, Lancashire Junior Cup and Ashworth Cup (twice) were won by arguably the greatest Rossendale United side of all time. There were also two memorable FA Cup runs in the early seventies. The Second Round was reached in 1971/72 before defeat by Bolton Wanderers in front of 12,000 at Gigg Lane brought the run to an end. The other was in 75/76 when Shrewsbury Town claimed a controversial 1-0 win in the First Round to sneak through.
The cup run of 75/76 proved to be the last throw of the dice from that successful side as financial difficulties struck the club hard. Matters came to a head in February 1978 when the players walked out the night before the home game against would be Champions Marine. A scratch side managed to score two goals, the only problem being that Marine managed to score 14!
The club staged something of a recovery at the start of the eighties as Glyn Watson managed to bring some respectability back to the side. Trouble wasn't far away though, and 1981/82 brought a high court battle for the club's Dark Lane home. During this time Rossendale United played their home games at Droylsden, and despite all the problems had their most successful season for a number of years. They finished fifth in the League and embarked on an FA Trophy run which took them to the Second Round before losing 1-0 at Slough Town.
In 1982 Rossendale United became founder members of the North West Counties Football League, and were placed in the Second Division on ground grading. Promotion to their rightful place in Division One was achieved in 1985/86 when they finished Runners-up to Kirkby Town. This proved to be the start of another successful period in the clubs history. 1986/87 brought a comfortable mid table finish, plus an eventful FA Vase run which eventually ended in Round Five at Emley.
NWCFL Division One Runners-Up spot was claimed in 87/88, Rossendale losing out to Colne Dynamoes on goal difference for the title. They went one better the season after, claiming the Championship and setting a couple of League records on the way. They remained unbeaten in the League until February, a run spanning 22 games, and set a new points record of 56 from just 34 matches (in the days of two points for a win). With the title came promotion to the Northern Premier League First Division (now UniBond League) and a respectable mid-table finish in their first season.
1990/91 proved to be the start of the decline as the club struggled both on and off the pitch. The extra cost of the higher League, combined with falling gates and increasingly poor performances on the field led to the inevitable relegation back to the NWCFL in 1992/93. The club's final season in the NPL was a shambles. Three managers failed to halt the slide as the campaign ended with 18 straight defeats in the club's worst ever season.
Back in the NWCFL for the 93/94 season, the club spent heavily to try to gain an immediate return to the NPL. Atherton LR pipped them to promotion as Rossendale finished Runners-up. They did however win the Challenge Cup, beating St Helens Town 1-0 in a drab Final at Gigg Lane. The cost of that season had a tremendous effect on the club. With little or no money, the facilities at Dark Lane fell into disrepair, as the team struggled to avoid relegation.
Rossendale United celebrated their centenary season in 1998/99, and until new owners took over at the end of the campaign, it could well have been the last season in the club's history. New owners brought a fresh outlook and the clubs fortunes on and off the field took a turn for the better.
The installation of Jim McCluskie as manager saw Rossendale claim the NWCFL Division one title in 2000/01, and following an excellent start in 01/02 'Dale topped the NPL Division one table in the early stages of the campaign. Unfortunately, key players were lost through injury and the club dropped down the table but still finished a highly respectable ninth place, their highest ever finish in the non-league pyramid.
The next three seasons saw a procession of managers at the club as they all tried, and failed to repeat the success of McCluskie's side. 2004/05 should have seen the club relegated back to the North West Counties League but an off the pitch reprieve saved them from the drop as they retained their UniBond status.
Following a disappointing start to the 2005/06 season, the board acted swiftly to bring in former Ramsbottom United manager Derek Egan in an attempt to revive the club's fortunes. Egan managed this and at one point a place in the end of season play-offs looked likely as the side embarked on an impressive run off results.

The Cuban Sugar Missile Crisis: Still doubting Castro's Cuba is a State Sponsor of Terrorism?
Senior Cuban Official Visits North Korea
The Castro regime's state media has reported that senior Cuban Communist Party official, Jose Ramon Balaguer, is in Pyongyang today, where he held high-level meetings with North Korean officials.
According to the report, "both sides agreed to the good state of bilateral relations, to strengthen links and expand cooperation."
This visit comes amid the scandal of a North Korean vessel caught smuggling a Cuban arsenal through the Panama Canal, in violation of the U.N. Security Council's arms embargo.
It is curious that Castro has chosen the 81-year old Balaguer to lead this trip.
He is a former Health Minister and Cuban Ambassador to the Soviet Union.
Most importantly, Balaguer is a close Castro confidant, which means they want to ensure the utmost secrecy in dealing with (and lying about) this crisis.

'Witty' worm infects, dies quickly

Enterprise security
Get the latest headlines and
company-specific news in our
expanded GUTS section.
The worm breached systems through a security hole in ISS's firewall products, such as its BlackICE and RealSecure software. While the flaw affects the company's Proventia network devices, the manner in which the worm is constructed prevents it from infecting the devices.
ISS estimated that the worm could only affect about 2 percent of its customer base. Subscribers to the company's maintenance service had already received the update a week prior to the release of the worm, ISS stated on its Web site.
"We have been doing our own research (into the worm's spread), and we came up with 12,000 Internet addresses (that seem to be infected) at last check," said Dan Ingevaldson, director of ISS's vulnerability research and development group. "It is impossible to know how widespread it is. Whenever you count IP addresses you may be double counting or triple counting machines."
An unknown author created the worm about two days after news of the flaw became public, in what may be the fastest turnaround of malicious code writing to date. Like Slammer, the Witty worm spread through single packets of data sent on the Internet using a protocol known as the user datagram protocol, or UDP.
"It is the only time that I can think of that this had happened so quickly," Ingevaldson said. "This was surprising. We didn't think we would see something that could come up this big and fast."
ISS posted an update to patch the hole on its Web site Wednesday after network security firm eEye Digital Security found the flaw. ISS knew about the weakness for about 10 days, Ingevaldson said.
Witty had infected an estimated 30,000 computers by early Saturday morning, according to Internet Storm Center's Ullrich. By Monday, the worm wasn't actively spreading, he said, and the center's measure of the threat had been reduced from yellow to green.
"It killed off itself," he said. "It survives around half an hour on average."
The worm could spell trouble for ISS, as customers not only were infected by the program but also likely lost data.
"A lot of people lost data on their hard drives," said Joe Stewart, senior researcher for Internet security firm Lurhq. The worm attempts to infect 20,000 random addresses and then writes 65 kilobytes of data to a random location on the hard drive, slowly corrupting the infected computer's files.
Witty was designed to target a flaw in software used in ISS software to examine traffic from the Internet messaging application ICQ. Once it has infected a new machine it runs alongside ISS software and continues the infection cycle. Security experts are advising ISS firewall customers to patch their software immediately or use it to block UDP port 4000 to close the door on the worm.
The worm picked up its name from what appears to be a signature left in its source code by the programmer: "insert.witty.message.here."

- Roger Kay an analyst at IDC is quoted "To increase market share requires "Devil's bargain. You have to support inexperienced buyers in order to get their business" This reference is made pursuant to the most recent customer service issues that have been addressed according to new new reports that rate the satisfaction.
The best reports indicate customer satisfaction at best is 40%. As a small business owner I can say first hand that since discovering a simple hardware solution it has virtually eliminated any potential infections or melt down and provides instant save and instant recovery. Absolutely zero down time. Voom Technologies has developed such a product. Absolutely incredible inexpensive solution. While every one is looking for Software,Software and more software I sleep well knowing I am fully protected. WWW.voomtech.com

- Voom makes it sound good but...
- I think every IT solution provider will tell you theirs is the best, no matter what type of solution. I'm sure it works well for you, also. But I doubt their product is any better that the norm. The proof will be when some hacker decides he doesn't like Voom. There have been no vendors who have successfully stopped a hacker who wants to make a point. It is just a matter of who gets targeted. The so called biggest and best vendors out there have crumpled under hack attacks. I doubt Voom's products are so superior that they are immune. It is quite obvious today that solution providers are so arrogant and money hungy that they do not persue rigorous stress testing of their products. With a name like cisco or symantec or Microsoft, how could their product contain any flaws??? Ouch says the consumer. So maybe or maybe not, until Voom is put to the test, I think I'll hold up on the gold stars. It would be refreshing to think a company might still be doing things right, but that would be betting against the odds.

- The cost per effectiveness ratio of PC's versus MAC is far too good to make anyone become a MAC user instead of a PC. For instance, I can allways get a GOOD PC for less than 400 USD. An equivalent MAC would cost me somewhere around 1500. Pretty nifty difference, is it not?! Most particularly in a country where average pay is 150 USD per month and some 1000 USD are top notch management pay. So... keep dreaming. Besides... software for macs, drivers, components and so on are allways a lag! I prefere backing up often! After all a recordable CD is only a measly 20 cents. So... u may as well keep your mac to yourself... we'll stick to PC's.

Broadway, Isham St, Inwood Pk
Acres: 20.09
In 1864 William B. Isham, a wealthy leather merchant, purchased twenty-four acres along the Kingsbridge Road, now known as Broadway, from 211th Street to 214th Street, and northwest to Spuyten Duyvil Creek. The park named in his honor is bordered on the north by the Harlem River Ship Canal, on the west by Inwood Hill Park, on the south by Isham Street, and on the east by Broadway. Isham Park functions as a sort of town common as well as a gateway to its larger neighbor, Inwood Hill Park. The park's hills and abundant trees, shrubs, and lawn give it a pastoral quality.
The park originally included the old Isham mansion, stables, and green house, with the mansion located at the summit of the hill. These structures were demolished in the 1940s because of prohibitive maintenance costs. Only a stone terrace on the east edge of the park, lined with beautifully crafted stone benches overlooking the Harlem River, indicates that a stately mansion once stood on the site. Early photographs depict a worn brownstone milemarker on the original carriage road. The park's design included several ballfields and playgrounds.
Julia Isham Taylor donated a six-acre parcel of her estate to the city in remembrance of her father in 1912. She wanted the estate's views of the Hudson and Harlem Rivers, the Harlem River Ship Canal, and Spuyten Duyvil to be preserved for future generations to enjoy. Julia's daughter, Flora, donated her portion of the estate to the city in 1916. With Parks Department purchases in 1925 and 1927, the land for Isham Park was assembled. These acquisitions explain the unusual shape of the park which juts into Inwood Hill Park so that the two share a boundary in the middle of a field.
Like other parks in northern Manhattan, the site of Isham Park played a crucial role in the battle of Fort Washington during the American Revolution. The site served as a landing point for Hessian troops coming up the Harlem River to drive the American forces to Westchester and New Jersey. Within the park lies a lovely, worn outcropping of Inwood marble, and a large ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) tree. Today the Urban Park Rangers work with school children on a variety of restoration projects to stabilize the slope and improve the health and appearance of the park by planting native shrubs and trees.

If you attended or worked at Sweet Briar anytime since 1954, odds are you know this lady.
Yesterday the College celebrated the retirement of Shirley Reid from the library staff after 57 years of service. The kind of loyalty and dedicated service "Ms Reid" has shown to the College is rare and precious.
As is her sense of humor. I am not publishing here one photo from yesterday, in which Ms. Reid was making rabbit ears behind the head of an unsuspecting colleague. On more than one occasion, I talked with Ms. Reid about College matters; she would not hesitate to remind me — with a bit of a twinkle — that she had come to the College in the year I was born and knew a thing or two that I might learn. I have learned to listen attentively, even at her farewell party.
She will be much, much missed, although I am sure we will enjoy her company often, as she promises to visit us whenever she can take a break from the many activities she has planned for her retirement.
Holla holla Shirley Reid!

Part of the elite

KHS girls XC team proves it belongs among top tier
by Ryan Wells
Kaneland—As hundreds of runners and spectators descended on Elburn Woods Saturday for the annual Kaneland Eddington Invitational, the Kaneland High School Lady Knight cross country team proved it has what it takes to be among the top teams in the state.
Kaneland took fifth as a team in the highly competitive field, with 117 team points. Jacobs earned the top spot as a team, with 73 points. Marengo placed second with 93, followed by Geneva (102) and Crystal Lake Central (109). Kaneland closed out the top five with 117.
"Obviously, we're pleased with a fifth-place showing in such a tough field of competitors," KHS head coach Doug Ecker said.
Not only did the team overall demonstrate that it is among the top tier in the state, individuals showed they belong in the lead group as well.
For Aislinn Lodwig, a Kaneland sophomore who battled through an illness and a painful foot, the competitive atmosphere of the large-scale race was a significant motivator.
"With more teams it just makes me feel better about how I did," Lodwig said. "I know I can stick with more people than the usual (races), where it's more spaced out during the race. This course is one of the hardest to run with the huge hills, and it really takes a toll on you."
Lodwig was the sixth Lady Knight to cross the finish line, with a time of 21:08.
Leading Kaneland was sophomore Victoria Clinton, who took third overall and ran as part of the lead pack throughout the entire course.
Like Lodwig, Clinton's race served as proof that she was able to reach the goals she had set for herself coming into the race. She took third overall with a time of 18:07.
"My goal was to finish in the top three," Clinton said. "It was a fast race today; good competition was out here."
Clinton stayed in the front group that included returning Class 2A champ Sami Staples, a sophomore from Crystal Lake Central, and Katie Adams, a senior from Marengo. The trio was three-fourths of the lead pack, and set a hard pace from the start.
"The first part, we went out really fast, and then I felt it in the (middle); we picked up the pace at the end, and I just had a mental goal to be in the top three; and God allowed me to have a good, fun race," Clinton said.
Freshman Brianna Bower was the second Lady Knight to finish, taking 20th overall with a time of 19:59.
"That's a very strong time for our tough home course," Ecker said.
Bower said she was able to push through a bit of nerves, since it was her first time running in such a significant race at home.
"I felt good today; I was nervous at first. It ended up turning out OK," she said.
Senior Amanda Lesak placed 29th for Kaneland. She led a Kaneland mini-pack, helping push a trio of Lady Knights to a seven-second split in their three-through-five runners. Lesak credited that trio for the team's solid finish.
"A lot of my teammates really helped me and pushed me," she said. "We all push each other so we can push the pace a little bit."
Lesak said that the fast start was anticipated because of the nature of the Elburn Woods course.
"The first mile is always the fastest, because everybody wants to get a good spot," she said. "Usually people find their pace and find the people they want to run with and settle down a little bit."
The people Lesak ran with were Kaneland senior Abby Dodis, who finished 31st with a time of 20:30, and senior Maggie Brundige, who took 34th with a time of 20:33.
Sophomore Jessica Kucera paired up with Lodwig to take 52nd overall with a time of 21:10.
"It was great to see Lodwig and Kucera team up on the last portion of the course," Ecker said.
Each runner faced individual challenges and reached for individual goals, as well as working together to meet the team goal and push each other. Ecker said this is part of the program's plan as the final stretch run of the season looms ahead.
"This appears to be a deep team—and we need everyone fighting to push forward and get stronger for the conference meet and post-season run," Ecker said.

Rotations/Goals and Objectives
Residents will spend 24 months on general surgery services to include general surgery, cardiothoracic surgery and surgical intensive care, and 36 months on vascular surgery services to include vascular surgery, interventional radiology, and vascular lab.
Program Requirements
The Physicians' Vascular Interpretation Examination must be taken prior to graduation. The Vascular Surgery In Training Examination (VSITE) is required every year and residents are required to score higher than 70 percent each year.
Mondays (7:00 AM) - Basic Science Lectures This lecture series, developed from the Vascular Surgery Program Directors Curriculum, covers most of the basic and clinical sciences fundamental to the practice of vascular surgery over a two-year span. It includes a monthly review of recent literature, in the format of Journal Club. Articles are chosen that pertain to the module under review.
Tuesdays - Quality and Assurance Conference This conference allows review of all the cases and consults seen and intervened upon by the general surgery and vascular surgery services.
Wednesdays - Department of Surgery Morbidity & Mortality/Grand Rounds Morbidity and Mortality Conferences are held on Wednesdays for the entire Surgery Department. Vascular cases are included on a regular basis in this conference. All vascular residents are required to attend these sessions. Every third week is dedicated specifically to Vascular Morbidity and Mortality with an eye to presenting cases which usually are not discussed at the Surgery Department M&M Conference.
Friday - Case Conference Presentations The vascular residents are responsible for presenting the major cases they performed the week prior, addressing questions from the audience regarding clinical course and management. Although most of the presentations are based on surgical or interventional cases, occasionally interesting vascular lab or other non-operative cases will be presented.
Call schedule
Lenox Hill Hospital vascular surgery residents call schedule is in compliance with the national work hour requirements and ACGME regulations. For more information please see the duty hours policy.
Resident Life
The Residents at Lenox Hill Hospital are provided with the highest standard of hospitality while taking in house call. Residents shall be provided with locked on-call rooms and designated lounge and study areas. In an effort to provide residents with reasonably private on call rooms, such rooms will be located away from clinical units to the extent possible. On call room assignments will be made, to the extent possible, to provide residents with individual privacy. Meal tickets shall be distributed to all Lenox-Hill owned residents which may be used in the Hospital cafeteria. In addition, Lenox Hill Hospital is located in the Upper East Side and some of the city's best restaurants are within walking distance to the hospital. A very competitive salary is offered to the residents with an incremental increase as residents ascend post graduate years. Residents receive medical and dental coverage, life insurance, malpractice coverage, and disability. Investing in a retirement is also an option. Residents are eligible to apply for hospital housing.
The upper east side of Manhattan is a classic, yet always flourishing neighborhood that houses some of the city's finest restaurants and boutiques. It is well known as the home of the Metropolitan Museum, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Museum of the City of New York to name only a few. Central Park is within walking distance and provides ample space for leisure and exercise. The Hospital is located on the 4, 5, 6 metro route which allows easy access to grand central station and surrounding neighborhoods.
Residents must have at least 2 presentations prior to graduation and must have at least 1 manuscript submission prior to graduation.

"Know that Haida culture is not simply song and dance, graven images, stories, language, or even blood. It is all of those things and then... waking up on Haida Gwaii anticipating the season when the herring spawns. It is a feeling you get when you bring a feed of cockles to the old people, and when you are fixing up fish for the smokehouse, or when walking on barnacles or moss...
It is about being confronted with winter storms and trying to look after this precious place. All that we say is ours is of Haida Gwaii. This is our lot, our heritage, our life... and one of the world's great cultures."

Holman Jenkins on the BofA Putback
Holman Jenkins, writing in the Wall Street Journal, points out an interesting irony: First the government puts programs in place to encourage banks to modify mortgages and let people "stay in their homes": "Now the New York Fed has joined other mortgage investors to use the legal snafu to demand that Bank of America buy back $47 billion in supposedly tainted mortgages. Look closely, though, and one of the New York Fed's complaints is that BofA has been costing mortgage investors money by being too lenient with borrowers and too slow to foreclose (ironically, the fruit of an earlier settlement with state AGs)."

The American Joint Committee on
Cancer has developed a system for classifying cancers according to the extent
of the cancer. Complete excision of the melanoma is followed by assessment of
lymph nodes and other parts of the body to determine whether the cancer has
spread. The staging system looks at other factors that have been found to
affect survival, such as tumor thickness (Breslow level), depth of invasion
(Clark level), and
Two systems are used for staging melanoma.
The clinical staging system uses the letter T to describe
primary tumors, the letter N to describe lymph node involvement, and the letter
M for metastases (spread). Numbers after each of these letters show the
seriousness of the disease.
Tumor (describes the primary
Nodes (describes whether cancer has
spread into the lymph nodes)
Metastasis (describes the extent of
cancer spread outside primary melanoma site)
The pathologic staging system uses all the above information
and adds the pathologic evaluation of the lymph nodes and the examination of
any evidence of melanoma spread.

Paranormal Hoaxes
The Shroud of Turin
This famous cloth bearing the image of a naked man first came to the attention of the public in 1355. Its supporters claim that it was the funeral shroud of Christ. But skeptics dismiss it as a medieval forgery, arguing that: 1) there was a flourishing trade in such false relics; 2) a medieval forger could definitely have created it, despite claims to the contrary; and 3) the man's body is oddly proportioned (his head is too large), which suggests the image is a painting.
Prophecies of Nostradamus
Michel de Notredame, better known as Nostradamus, rose to prominence as an astrologer supported by the patronage of Queen Catherine de Médici. He wrote prophecies in an ancient form of French worded so ambiguously that it could be interpreted to mean almost anything a reader desired. This artful ambiguity has allowed his followers to credit him with predicting many events. Although his supposed predictions are only ever noticed after the events have occurred.
The Ghostly Drummer of Tedworth
A case of suspected poltergeist activity in the mid-17th C. John Mompesson of Wiltshire claimed to hear strange noises in his home such as a drum beating, scratching, and panting noises. Objects, he said, moved of their own accord. Many people came to witness the spirit activity for themselves. But skeptics suggested Mompesson himself may have been behind the haunting, either to profit from those who came to see the spirit, or to decrease the value of the house (which was rented).
The Cottingley Fairies
In 1920 a series of photos of fairies captured the attention of the world. The photos had been taken by two young girls, the cousins Frances Griffith and Elsie Wright, while playing in the garden of Elsie's Cottingley village home. Photographic experts examined the pictures and declared them genuine. Spiritualists promoted them as proof of the existence of supernatural creatures, and despite criticism by skeptics, the pictures became among the most widely recognized photos in the world. It was only decades later, in the late 1970s, that the photos were definitively debunked.
King Tut's Curse
In November 1922 Howard Carter located the entrance to the tomb of Tutankhamun. By February he and his team had unsealed the door of the Burial Chamber. But a mere two months later, on April 5, 1923, the sponsor of his expedition, Lord Carnarvon, died in his Cairo hotel room, having succumbed to a bacterial infection caused by a mosquito bite. The media immediately speculated that Carnarvon had fallen victim to King Tut's Curse. This curse supposedly promised death to all who violated his tomb.
Rudolph Fentz, Accidental Time Traveler
The story of Rudolph Fentz was long considered an unsolved mystery, and a case of possible time travel. In June 1950, Fentz was said to have suddenly appeared in the New York City's Times Square, as if from out of the blue, wearing old-fashioned clothes and sporting mutton-chop sideburns. Glancing around, a look of astonishment and then of panic flashed across his face. He sprinted forwards, and was then struck down and killed by a car.
The Third Eye of T. Lobsang Rampa
The Third EyeThe Third Eye, by Tuesday Lobsang Rampa, was first published in 1956. It purported to be his autobiographical account of growing up in Tibet and studying Tibetan Buddhism. Rampa claimed he had been born into a wealthy Tibetan family and had studied in Lhasa to become a lama. He had then undergone an operation to open up the "third eye" in the middle of his forehead. This operation had bestowed upon him amazing psychic powers.
Operation Blackbird
(July 1990)
A group of researchers camped out on a hillside in Wiltshire with an array of high-tech equipment, hoping to record the formation of a crop circle (presumably by a UFO). On the second night, their equipment recorded flashing orange lights in an adjacent field. The next morning, the researchers were excited to see that two large circles had formed. But their hopes were dashed when they found a horoscope chart and wooden crucifix in the middle of one of the circles — evidently the calling card of a hoaxer. The flashing lights on their equipment, the researchers admitted, had probably been the heat signature of humans running around.
The BMW Crop Circle
(Feb 1993)
A crop circle appeared in a field of rye located outside of Johannesburg, South Africa during the first week of February 1993. The media speculated excitedly about whether it was the work of a UFO. Popular curiosity grew until February 14, when a small detail was pointed out that had previously escaped almost everyone's notice: the circle formed a BMW logo. The circle turned out to be the work of the Hunt Lascaris ad agency, working on behalf of BMW. TV commercials soon followed, showing aerial views of the circle accompanied by the tag-line, "Perhaps there is intelligent life out there after all."

Chaplain Rosie Magee and four students from Wilson College completed a few hours of community service on Feb. 7 in Chambersburg by volunteering at the Chambersburg Cold Weather Drop-In Center.
The work done by these volunteers consisted of making sure guests had a comfortable stay in their separate rooms, and encouraging them to eat a warm plate of food.
Center's Growth is Eagerly Awaited
Craig Newcomer, Shelter Manager of the Cold Weather Drop-In Center, warmed volunteers with his vision for the center that he hopes will grow in the following year.
"I am just waiting for the things to fall into place now," he says. His search for renovating a new building was a call to help "those people in need," says Newcomer.
He is halfway to that goal, thanks to several large anonymous donations. Most of the donations were unprecedented in size, says Newcomer.
The current Center provides a warm, safe, and clean environment for those seeking refuge during the bitter months of winter. It is located on 195 Loudon Street and is open seven days a week, from 7:00am to 7:00pm and from November through April.
Donations are Always Welcome
Newcomer also encourages donations seven days a week. Donors can drop off food and healthcare products during the morning hours.
Although the Center is a refuge for those who were in desperate need during this past unusually cold winter, Newcomer hopes the shelter will continue provide support in the future. His vision consists of adding medical staff and more volunteers to help guests.
"I plan to create jobs for those here," he says. Newcomer plans to name the new center Candle Heart, after his strong spirituality. During the interview, a few men, one teenager and a woman came into the shelter, chose a duty and immediately got to work. These guests often come here for a warm place to sleep, to eat good food and to socialize with other people.
Helping Others as a Community
One guest chose the Chambersburg center as his community of choice, and he plans to stay until the shelter closes in April.
Chaplain Magee shares her experience at the shelter. "We all want that feeling of community," she says.
Her words resonated with one member of the Center as he sent the Wilson College volunteers home, saying, "Hope your experience this evening will never be forgotten! I want you to know that I really enjoyed your visit tonight and I'm going to miss all of you!"

S.A.M.M.I brings four-oscillator drone synth and virtual theremin to iPad
Grab a free experimental noise generator from the App Store
S.A.M.M.I is a new, free sound creation app for iPad that combines a drone synth, virtual theremin and 16-step sequencer.
The app's 'drone' section is built around four-oscillators, each of which offers a choice of saw, square, sine, triangle and noise waves. There's also a detune control, a multimode filter and LFO. The theremin, meanwhile, makes use of both the iPad's touchscreen and accelerometer for note control. Both sections feature their own delay effect too.
Right now S.A.M.M.I doesn't support Audiobus or, it appears, MIDI control, so we hope these may be added in a future update. For a free app though, it's still a pleasantly well-equipped and fun offering.

Health advocacy groups on Saturday urged countries to invest in simple and cost effective interventions including steroid injections, kangaroo mother care and antibiotics to reduce preterm births that are a leading cause of infant deaths.
A statement released by global health advocates during the World Premature Day on November 17, stated that more than one million babies succumb to death annually due to complications arising from premature births.
However, 75% of babies born prematurely can be saved through a range of affordable and user friendly interventions.
"People think that preterm babies need intensive, high-tech care, but we have simple methods that really work and would save hundreds of thousands of lives," remarked Joy Lawn, a neonatal physician at the UK charity, Save the Children.
An estimated 15 million babies across the globe are born annually before the end of 37 weeks of pregnancy.
"These babies are born too soon, but they are not born to die. Their deaths are utterly preventable," said Lawn.
During the World Premature Day, countries will renew commitment towards efforts that would minimize preterm births.
Families affected by premature births will use social media platforms to share stories, photos and videos and help propel a global movement advocating for greater attention towards this challenge.
The international community is behind efforts to enable countries scale up interventions that minimize premature births.
"We know what it takes to address the challenge of prematurity and we are committed to bringing partners together behind proven, affordable solutions," Said the UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-Moon.
Both the rich and poor nations are grappling with a huge burden of preterm births.
According to the statement, India, China, Pakistan, Brazil, the United States Indonesia, Nigeria, Bangladesh and the Democratic Republic of Congo, are some of the countries with a huge burden of premature births.
There are low cost interventions that can effectively curb premature births yet countries have not used them optimally.
"Essential newborn care is especially important for babies born preterm," remarked the Director of WHO Department of Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent health, Elizabeth Mason.
She added," This means keeping them warm, clean and well fed while ensuring that babies who have difficulty breathing get immediate attention".
A steroid injection that cost one dollar when given to mothers in preterm labor helps speed up the development of babies` lungs and ward off respiratory distress to prevent 400,000 deaths annually.
Steroids have been widely used in high income countries to cover 95% of women in preterm labor.
In low and middle income countries, only 5% of women receive these steroid injections during preterm labor.
The statement noted that Kangaroo mother care is crucial to keep preterm babies warm and would prevent 450,000 deaths annually.
"Using an essential package of pregnancy, child birth and postnatal care that includes these interventions will save more than three quarters of preterm babies without intensive care," said Carole Presern, the Director, Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (PMNCH).
Experts revealed that obesity, smoking, high blood pressure, genetics, multiple pregnancies and pregnancies spaced too closely are leading causes of premature births.
"We also know that poverty, lack of women`s education, malaria and HIV/Aids all have an impact on the pregnancy and health of the baby," said Christopher Howson, the Vice President, Global Programs for the March of Dimes, an advocacy group.
He regretted that little is known about the interplay of environmental and social factors that worsen the challenge of preterm births.
"We need to know more and this knowledge could have a big impact in the lowest income countries," Howson stressed.

The Commerce Department this morning gave a reading on the third-quarter 2012 Gross Domestic Product—the sum of goods and services produced in the United States. GDP climbed 2 percent (on an annualized basis) in July, August, and September, slightly above the predictions of economists. This was an improvement on the dismal 1.3 percent growth the economy saw in the second quarter, but still a long way from the sort of robust recovery that is needed to significantly bring down the unemployment rate and restore a sense of prosperity to the country.
Much of the growth was in consumer spending, especially for durable goods (such as automobiles, refrigerators, etc.), which saw growth at 8.5 percent. But business investment remained weak, with fixed investments (buildings and equipment, for instance) actually declining 1.3 percent after climbing 3.6 percent in the second quarter. This might reflect caution ahead of the election and fear that the "fiscal cliff" of tax hikes and government spending cuts due January 1 might actually come to pass. Most economists think that that would send the economy right back into full-blown recession.
Exports shrank, reflecting the deepening economic problems in Europe. Imports also fell, but at a lower rate. Federal government spending also accelerated in the quarter.
This isn't a game-changer in the election by any manner of means. Everyone knows the economic recovery, which began in June 2009, four months into Obama's term, has been anemic at best, so this report is just a continuation of the status quo. The jobs report due out next Friday might be more significant as it could show a rise in unemployment, correcting the anomalous October jobs report that showed an unexpected .3 percent drop in unemployment. If unemployment were to rise above 8 percent again, just four days before the election, that would be very bad news for President Obama.

Youth Volunteer Training
February 02, 2012
The Oregon Coast
Aquarium is looking for teenagers to join its youth volunteer team. Young
people have an opportunity to explore the fascinating world of marine science
and share their knowledge as Aquarium interpreters. Youth volunteers will spend
48 hours in training learning about marine science, marine animals, and
conservation. Successful completion of training
can earn young people three transferable college credits from the Oregon Coast
Community College and high school credit in some high schools as well.
"It is a great time to get involved and spend the summer with friends, learning and growing as leaders together," said Tricia Ratliff, Aquarium Youth Programs Coordinator. "There are so many opportunities for students in the program; working with the public, volunteering with summer camps, working around marine animals and at social events. Becoming a youth volunteer offers an opportunity for teens to share their enthusiasm and knowledge with others." Ratliff said friendships, personal development, and networking opportunities are also benefits of the program as volunteers find themselves working alongside Aquarium staff and adult volunteers. "Some volunteers go on to pursue a career in marine sciences based on their experience as a youth volunteer," said Ratliff.
Youth volunteers are enthusiastic about the experience as well. "I have learned so much about the environment as a youth volunteer, and thanks to the Aquarium, I was able to spread my knowledge to the community," said Emily Branigan, former youth volunteer. "It is so rewarding to have an impact on a child's life, whether it is encouraging them to recycle or showing them about the wonders of the ocean."
Volunteer training offers an introduction to marine biology, animal husbandry and the inner workings of the Aquarium. They also study the Aquarium's marine animal collection as well as the Oregon coast's natural history. After completing the training, youth volunteers work with the public as interpreters. Volunteers work two 4.5 hour shifts a week during the summer, sharing their knowledge with Aquarium guests. Benefits include educational work experience, references, discounts in the Aquarium gift shop and café along with complimentary passes for every 100 hours of volunteer service. After completing 50 hours of service youth volunteers are eligible to receive an Aquarium membership.
Ratliff encourages young people who would like to join the youth volunteer team to apply for spring training, coming up in April. Enrollment is open now through March 9th, 2012. The volunteer training course, will run Saturdays, April 7th through May 12th. Applicants need to submit an application packet by March 9th and must attend every training session. Interested youth may pick up an application at the Aquarium, on the web at aquarium.org, by calling 541-867-3474 x 5312, or emailing email@example.com for more information.

Who can stop Brittney Griner?
The women's basketball player of the year not only was the most dominant player, but also helped the Baylor Bears reach new heights as they completed an undefeated season, defeating Skylar Diggins and Notre Dame in the National Championship, 80-61.
They become NCAA's first team to go 40-0, as Griner scored 26 points and 13 rebounds in her amazing performance.
"She'll go down as one of the greatest post players in the history of the game," Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. "I'm so glad she got that ring."
Griner celebrated like any college champion would: cutting down the nets. Robert Griffin III, who helped Baylor win a bowl game a few months ago along with winning the Heisman trophy, attended the game and also joined the Bears to cut down nets.
Griner helped win it for Mulkey, who was struggling will Bell's Palsy when she was diagnosed with it during the tournament.
"It meant everything for us to get it for coach," said Griner. "She felt like she wasn't there for us, but we told her every second that we could hear here loud and clear, everything she was saying."
Diggins tried doing all she could, scoring 20 points but it just wasn't enough. As for the 6'8″ Griner, she will be going on to the next stage of her basketball career as she turns pro.
Congrats to Baylor on a legendary season!

Outapi — A GROUP of 'children of the liberation struggle' have been camping outside the Swapo regional office at Outapi in the Omusati Region since late last week, demanding employment by the government.
Their spokesperson, Matilde Ndahafa Amutenya, told The Namibian that they got together at Tsandi early on Wednesday morning and marched 35 kilometres to Outapi to hand over a petition to the party's regional coordinator, Erkki Endjala, who promised to forward the petition to the relevant authorities.
In the petition, Amutenya said, they asked the government for jobs because they have been without employment for too long.
They accuse the Ministry of Youth, National Service, Sport and Culture of failing to deliver on its promises of public service jobs made when it registered them in 2008 and 2009.
Amutenya said the group from Omusati did not take part in demonstrations conducted by others from Oshana and Khomas in 2008, 2009 and 2012 because they opted to wait for the government to keep its promises.
She said those from Oshana and Khomas who had demonstrated and marched were now getting jobs, and that the 'struggle children' in Omusati now regretted that they had not joined the protests.
"We will camp here until our demands for employment are met," said Amutenya.
They want to meet with Prime Minister Hage Geingob, Defence Minister Nahas Angula and Youth Minister Jerry Ekandjo to discuss their situation.
The protesters are from 12 constituencies of Omusati, namely Outapi, Anamulenge, Ruacana, Onesi, Tsandi, Okahao, Otamanzi, Elim, Oshikuku, Etayi, Ogongo and Okalongo, according to another member of the group, Sam Shitana.

On April 27, President Obama signed Executive Order 13607, which sets new rules for how institutions that receive military and veterans' education benefits recruit students, track student-learning outcomes and disclose financial information.
Earlier this week, I spoke to the Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs about Executive Order 13607. You can watch the hearing at this link.
I spoke on behalf of Frostburg State University and and AASCU (the American Association of State Colleges and Universities), of which FSU is a member.
You can read my testimony below:
Chairman Stutzman, Ranking Member Braley, and distinguished members of the Subcommittee. I am Dr. Jonathan Gibralter, President of Frostburg State University in Maryland. I am testifying on behalf of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, commonly known as AASCU, which represents over 400 public institutions and university systems. Thank you for holding this hearing. I would also encourage Members to view the written statement for further detail and explanation.
Frostburg serves the majority of veterans and active military connected to our region's National Guard and Reserve units. The number of veterans we serve varies significantly from year to year. Our growing online programs, in particular our accredited MBA and new Bachelor of Science in Nursing, are proving popular with veterans since they are designed for flexibility.
Frostburg serves the majority of veterans and active military connected to our region's National Guard and Reserve units. The number of veterans we serve varies significantly from year to year. Our growing online programs, in particular our accredited MBA and new Bachelor of Science in Nursing, are proving popular with veterans since they are designed for flexibility.
AASCU, which also serves as the administrative agent for the Servicemembers Opportunity Colleges (SOC), supports the intent of the issued Executive Order. Our nation's veterans and military personnel should be able to obtain quality information about institutions and their programs. AASCU and its member institutions, including my own campus, value the perspective and experience that service members and veterans bring to our institutions. As such, we take our commitment to providing them a quality educational experience very seriously.
As the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan wind down and over 2 million troops are withdrawn from those areas, more and more veterans will be arriving on college campuses to use the educational benefits they have earned serving our country. In addition, our active-duty military are combining service to the country with higher education.
The text of the Executive Order, as written, raises a number of concerns for AASCU institutions regarding implementation. Those of us "on the ground" are also most aware of the human issues of the individuals we work with. For example, as there is no requirement that students identify themselves as veterans, some choose not to do so, meaning they may be missing out on services we can provide.
The Executive Order requires the Secretaries to "develop a comprehensive strategy for developing service member and veteran student outcome measures that are comparable across Federal military and veterans educational benefit programs." While AASCU appreciates the order's statement that "To the extent practicable, the student outcome measures should rely on existing administrative data to minimize the reporting burden on institutions participating in these benefit programs," there is considerably more burden to finding available data for these outcome measures than meets the eye.
The issues of data definition and collection raised by the Executive Order's requirement to develop national-level outcome measures become even more significant for institutions. First, the federal government does not collect veterans and military student specific data from institutions. Second, institutions and states vary in their ways of defining veteran and military students based on what data is available to them. Given the complexity of data identification and collection on this topic, higher education institutions will inevitably be asked for data that may or may not be possible to obtain.
This leads to another concern – that of reporting burden and associated cost. In 2010, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) completed an analysis of the burden placed on institutions to comply with expanded mandatory IPEDS reporting. Among other issues, GAO found that "Schools reported time burdens ranging from 12 to 590 hours, compared with the 19 to 41 hours Education estimated…." GAO further reported that institutions incurred a total estimated salaries and computer costs of over $6 million.
The call for specific, comparable outcome measures in the Executive Order would be an expansion of current reporting requirements and may require institutions to incur considerable back-office costs. Given significant cuts to state-level higher education support, combined with ever-expanding reporting requirements on multiple fronts, this cost is not a negligible issue for AASCU institutions.
Another key concern is the complaint system outlined in the Executive Order that would "create a centralized complaint system for students receiving Federal military and veterans educational benefits to register complaints that can be tracked and responded to." Instituting a centralized complaint system without first establishing whether an individual has already attempted to resolve their complaint with a university or college's veterans affairs office or with the SAA representatives is a concern. Too often complaints rise to the highest level of attention when the resolution resides at the local level. For example, Frostburg State University is already in high compliance with VA and SAA mandates. Our Veterans Affairs Office is already on the lowest frequency of SAA and VA audits due to our excellent performance on all previous audits.
Therefore AASCU strongly suggests that higher education stakeholders have significant input into the conceptualization of this centralized complaint system and its operational processes to ensure that the final complaint mechanism serves all parties truthfully and equitably.
In closing, Frostburg State University and other AASCU institutions are eager to continue meeting the needs of our military members and veterans as well as their families. Our experience is that these returning military become solid students and campus leaders. AASCU institutions' commitment to and recognition of the service of our nation's servicemembers and veterans mean they strive to provide timely and accurate information to our students. As such, we support the Administration's efforts to ensure that servicemembers and veterans can make the best-informed educational choices.
I appreciate this opportunity and look forward to your questions.
