A new way of teaching medicine begins with School of Medicine's entering class
When Nancy Skehan, MD '06, started at UMass Medical School in 2002, the structure of the curriculum was not unlike what students had experienced 30 years before, when the School of Medicine first opened: two years of basic science courses, where she acquired important foundational knowledge in subjects such as anatomy, physiology and microbiology, followed by two years of clinical rotations, where she put that basic science knowledge to use while serving as an active member of a health care team.
"In our first two years, we were tested on our ability to memorize and regurgitate information presented in a lecture," said Dr. Skehan, who is finishing up as chief resident of internal medicine at UMass Memorial Medical Center. "It was good information, but at the time, I had no context for how I would be using it. And when the clinical years came around, I was racking my brains for the basic science information I had learned in my first two years of school."
The complaint is common among medical students, who often struggle through the first two theoretical years in classrooms while eagerly awaiting the hands-on learning in the clinic. In fact, despite significant advances in what is taught, how students are taught at most U.S. medical schools can be traced back to the Flexner Report of 1910, which is credited with reforming medical education in the United States.
At UMass Medical School, all that is changing. When first-year students arrive on campus this August, they will be taught the practice of medicine in a new way. They will experience a fundamental change in the way courses are constructed, with basic science and clinical practice woven throughout all four years. But even more significantly, they will be expected to learn differently—both on their own and from faculty mentors and fellow students. They will be taught using nontraditional methods to take advantage of advances in technology. And they will be asked to master learning methods that will prepare them to be lifelong learners.
"Students will be in the clinic sooner, working in partnership with the basic sciences. They will focus more on the ability to learn and less on the ability to memorize," said Michele P. Pugnaire, MD, senior associate dean for educational affairs and professor of family medicine & community health. "Learning on their own and learning in groups is the way they will be learning throughout their professional lives."
An intricate group effort
The significance of this change cannot be overstated. The new Learner-Centered Integrated Curriculum (LInC) has involved years of study and thousands of hours of discussion and planning by more than 400 members of the UMMS and UMass Memorial community. Finally seeing the hard work come to life in August will be a milestone for the many individuals involved.
"It is beyond exciting," said Melissa Fischer, MD, MEd, associate dean for undergraduate education, associate professor of medicine and chair of the LInC trustees, a group of UMMS faculty, staff, alumni and students providing overall direction and guidance for the redesign. "I am seeing layer upon layer of enthusiasm from all parts of the school."
Like transplanting a giant tree, moving the curriculum in a different direction is a formidable undertaking, especially since the roots are more than 100 years deep. The genesis of the redesign dates back to 2003, when the School of Medicine defined six interrelated competencies that all graduates are expected to acquire: physician as professional, scientist, communicator, clinical problem solver, patient and community advocate, and person.
Once these competencies were established, the limitations of the traditional curriculum structure were exposed, according to Dr. Pugnaire. Representatives from all parts of the School of Medicine community, including current students and alumni, were recruited to start a curriculum redesign from the ground up. An intricate system of steering committees, advisory and consulting groups and design teams was formed, tapping every part of the school and involving hundreds of participants.
Many volunteers relished the idea that they would be making a difference in the way future medical students are prepared for the profession. "It's a unique way to give back to the school," said Laura Spring, a rising fourth-year student who is a LInC trustee. Despite the fact that she won't experience the new curriculum herself, she said, "We are in a good position to give feedback and contribute."
"As a recent graduate and current resident, I could recognize the shortcomings and redundancies of the existing structure," said Skehan, who is also a LInC trustee. "It was a great opportunity to start from scratch."
A new approach to teaching
A key element in LInC is the integration of basic science and clinical education into entirely new courses that focus on broader organ systems. Most new courses are being piloted by co-leaders from both worlds, all of whom were nominated by their department chairs.
For example, Leslie J. Berg, PhD, professor of pathology, and Robert Weinstein, MD, professor of medicine & pathology, had little professional interaction until recently when the two were named co-leaders of a new course called "Host Defense and Blood."
Dr. Berg has taught courses on immunology and immuno-pathology for so long that she can create a lesson plan in her head. But she's never ordered a test on a patient to diagnose an immunological disorder. Dr. Weinstein, chief of transfusion medicine at UMass Memorial, is comfortable teaching students the questions to ask a patient presenting with certain symptoms, but he has comparatively little experience in the classroom. The two have combined their expertise to create a new course that focuses on the interaction between the blood and immune systems, and encourages problem solving using real cases of hematologic and immune disorders.
Throughout the course, they are planning to tap other expert faculty to paint a comprehensive picture of the blood, immune and inflammatory systems, including learning about drugs related to the systems, a subject that in the past would have been covered during a broader pharmacology class. Likewise, they will focus on blood cancers such as leukemia, which would have been covered in a class on cancer in the previous curriculum.
"Before, courses used to be very autonomous. I never worried about what someone taught in infectious diseases, even though I was teaching immunology," said Berg. "Now, all the course directors can see the topics covered in every other course and see where things might overlap. It's a real exchange of information."
"I might have had three different lectures on diabetes from three different points of view," said Skehan on her educational experience. "The information was always in silos. The new curriculum lays it all out and you begin to see it in a more cohesive fashion."
Added to the mix is the requirement that students receive information in creative and non-traditional ways—through online learning, case studies and other innovative methods. All incoming students will be required to have laptops to facilitate this new model.
"Actual lecture time is being decreased by 25 percent," said Weinstein. "But there is still information that needs to be exchanged, and we have to find nontraditional ways to do that. The whole thing is a creative exercise. We are trying to do something new here."
"It's really great to see the excitement from the faculty who are finding new ways of teaching a subject," said Diana Robillard, a rising fourth-year student and LInC trustee.
"Faculty who have never taught first-year students are now playing a very important role," agreed fellow student Spring. "They bring a lot of interesting ideas to the table about the way students are taught."
Ultimately, we hope to train better doctors
who can work within frameworks of changing medical knowledge and health care systems while remaining patient-centered.
Learning through communities
The change in course structure is just one part of the LInC model. Another significant component—and perhaps the most visible—is the creation of learning communities. All entering first-year students will be assigned to one of five "houses," each with regionally significant names: Burncoat, Kelly, Tatnuck, Quinsigamond and Blackstone. Each house will include 100 students—four 25-student cohorts from all four class years. These social and academic homes will be overseen by faculty mentors, four per house, who will act as advisors, teachers and career development coaches. Learning communities will also allow more inter-class interaction, an important element missing from the traditional structure, where students in the first two years rarely crossed paths with students already in their clinical years.
"It's about a transfer of knowledge. Students in upper classes can teach what they have learned through experience. Newer students can talk about the latest teaching methods or information they gathered from evolving technology," said Pugnaire. "They will learn from each other because when they are out in the real world, that's how they will continue to learn."
The learning communities, which actually began informally last year thanks to a grass-roots effort led by current students, have dedicated space in the Medical School building at the moment. But when the Albert Sherman Center opens in 2012, the five houses will occupy two floors, with office and meeting rooms across from the standardized patient and simulation centers. This concept of home will become even more important as class time is reduced, and along with it, a significant portion of the student interaction that happens while hanging out in the lecture halls.
"The Sherman Center will be the hub, the heart and soul of the medical school community," said Pugnaire. "Students will always have a place to go."
A measure of success
While there will be satisfaction surveys given to students and residents, evaluations and data collected from residency directors and hospital officials to judge the preparedness of future School of Medicine alumni, as well as faculty feedback as the curriculum is fully implemented over the next four years, the true measure of the success of LInC will be less tangible.
"Ultimately, we hope to train better doctors who can work within frameworks of changing medical knowledge and health care systems while remaining patient-centered," said Dr. Fischer. "We are focusing on competencies and on the skills that will allow our graduates to continue to build on what they learn here."
"The most important thing we can teach these medical students is how to learn on their own," agreed Weinstein. "Everything we teach has a half-life of relevancy. We hope that we are planting seeds to produce a crop of new doctors."
"The curriculum is going to be more modern and relevant," said Skehan. "Medical knowledge is exploding. It's not feasible for medical schools to tread water. In a way, this had to happen."

Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak doesn't see the virtue in tanking the season for a lottery pick.
"The ping-pong lottery thing, even if you have the very worst team in the NBA, you're not guaranteed to get the first pick," Kupchak said Thursday to Colin Cowherd on ESPN Radio. "I'm not sure getting into the lottery and ending up with 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 is going to give us a top one or two pick in the draft."
"We still may end up drafting 12, 13 or 14, which is not a great place to draft if you just look back on drafts in this league," he continued.
Instead, Kupchak believes the team's financial flexibility, starting in the summer of 2014, should enable the Lakers to quickly rebuild.
The 2014 free-agent wish list could include: LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade, Zach Randolph, Rudy Gay, Danny Granger, Luol Deng and Marcin Gortat. Restricted free agents could include Paul George, DeMarcus Cousins and Greg Monroe.
"We'll have a lot of financial resources a year from now," Kupchak said. "I don't know if we'll get a star player to leave his home team to come here like Dwight [Howard] did to go to Houston. He took a huge financial hit just to do that."
Howard joined the Rockets as a free agent, agreeing a four-year, $88-million contract over the Lakers' five-year, $118-million offer.
"We have a pick next year, which is going to be a very good draft. We're very comfortable with the flexibility," said Kupchak. "It just doesn't mean you get free agents you can take players [via trade]. There are a lot of things you can do with cap room."
How will 2014 free agents Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol fit into the team's future?
"It's a cyclical business we're in, nothing lasts forever," said Kupchak. '"We're hopeful that Pau and Kobe can continue to play and we'll have options to rebuild the team."
The Lakers are still adjusting without longtime owner Jerry Buss, who passed away in February due to complications from cancer.
"You have to give to the organization time to work out a new way of working together," Kupchak said. "Dr. Buss passed away in the spring; you can't expect things to go smoothly from the get-go."
Buss left his majority ownership stake to his six children with Jim Buss in charge of basketball operations and Jeanie Buss running the team's business operations.
"There's a period of mourning that needs to take place. I have complete confidence in all the kids, in particular the ones I work most closely with, which is Jeanie and Jimmy," Kupchak said. "This is going to be a fine, well-operated franchise moving forward."
Mitch Kupchak: 'Kobe is a big question mark'
Jim Buss says Dwight Howard was never really a Laker

Even from the aeroplane, it's hard to miss the majestic silhouette. Right behind the city of Catania, the mighty Mount Etna rises high above the green hills of Sicily. Imposing and seductive: you are drawn to take a closer look. And we highly recommend it. A visit to this active volcano, the highest in Europe, is an unforgettable experience.
From the city of Catania, Mount Etna is an easy trip. By (rental) car, it's only a 45-minute drive and there is a car park halfway up the mountain. Another (very romantic) alternative is to travel by train. The Circumetnea, a lovely old Fiat train, departs from Borgo station in Catania and rides in a circle around the base of the volcano. This 110-kilometre panoramic train ride travels past villages, citrus orchards, pistachio trees and vineyards in the Catania hinterland.
The top of Mount Etna is covered in snow until late spring; in winter, people even ski on the volcano's slopes. You would almost forget that this is an active volcano; lava regularly bubbles to the surface. The last time was in 2009. The lava flow from a few years ago has left impressive marks in the region; in some areas it even runs across roads. However, a visit is a very low-risk affair as Mount Etna is closely monitored around the clock. Mount Etna is without a doubt a must-see force of nature.
At an elevation of 1,800 metres, visitors can hop on a cable car, the Funivia, and travel close to the summit of the volcano. At the top, 4x4 vans with a guide take visitors to the highest crater. But the most exciting option is to hike all the way up (with or without a guide). Along the way you can admire the spectacular natural landscape. On the lower slopes of the volcano you will encounter fluttering butterflies and blossoming flowers, while the higher verges reveal a captivating lunar landscape with red and black rocks. Old lava stones make a creaking sound below your feet. Various tour companies in Catania offer guided sunset or sunrise hikes for an even more unique experience.
The volcano provides plenty of reminders of its activity: sometimes you feel the heat emanate from the soil or see the steam rising from small craters. Once you reach the highest and largest crater, at approximately 2,900 meters, you will be rewarded with a panoramic view. The city of Catania and the Ionian Sea glisten in the distance and the mountain is surrounded by Mount Etna's protected nature reserve. The east and north side of the volcano are much greener and covered by forest and vineyards: the grapes thrive in the fertile volcanic soil and make the delicious DOC Etna wine.

aventurine is a type of glass cooked with copper shavings and left to cool in the pot. It comes out of the oven as a single lump and is cut to blocks for further processing. In order to use it in a larger piece it needs to be picked up on the marver as shards, but it cannot be worked too extensively after that because subsequent reheating will burn the copper flecks. Aventurine can only be worked at relatively low temperatures - so onlly at surface, never inside a thickwalled piece. It is also used as threads in reticello glass - which is a relatively low temperature production. I think Barovier managed to make small glasses out of solid aventurine glass.Gold leaf/ gold foil (same thing) and silver can be used in thickwalled pieces because they do not burn.

Thousands of job seekers who utilize local workforce development agency DavidsonWorks could see major changes if state legislation is ratified in Raleigh.
Thousands of job seekers who utilize local workforce development agency DavidsonWorks could see major changes if state legislation is ratified in Raleigh.
Earlier this year, state lawmakers filed bills that would reduce the number of workforce development areas across the state from 23 to 16. The recommended change, which stems from a recent review by the state's Program Evaluation Division, would cause nine existing areas to disband, including Davidson County.
The Reform Workforce Development joint resolutions, filed for the second time in two consecutive years, would realign the state's existing workforce development areas with the boundaries of the various councils of government.
Bill sponsors say the workforce development areas are not strategically aligned with economic development activities and that local areas, like Davidson County, may not be optimizing potential funding streams because of their smaller size.
"The larger the area, the more funding it receives, and increased funding allows local workforce development areas to have more programs or use their money more effectively by having more types of programs," according to the joint resolutions.
Different federal statutes, the most recent being the Workforce Investment Act of 1998, have provided funding for workforce development areas across the state. Davidson County has received funding to operate workforce development programs and career centers throughout Lexington and Thomasville.
Councils of government already oversee 13 workforce areas across the state.
Davidson County, one of six single-county workforce development areas, has provided workforce development programs through DavidsonWorks and other entities for close to 40 years, said Cindy Livengood, director of DavidsonWorks.
While Livengood said regionalism is not always a bad thing, she has her concerns about what the change would mean for the services Davidson County citizens receive.
"The concern with our county and our officials would be that if you take these dollars and merge them with the council of government, you are part of a much larger area, and how much is really going to trickle down and impact the citizens of our county?" Livengood said.
There were about 27,600 visits to the DavidsonWorks centers in Lexington and Thomasville last year for career planning and development, educational connections and employment assistance, among other services.
Livengood said the DavidsonWorks board, comprised of locally elected officials, business executives, employment managers and directors of area nonprofits, seeks to utilize programs specific to the needs of the community.
"Our officials are concerned that you'd lose the ability to shape programs to meet the needs of our folks," Livengood said. "Sometimes, we may have different needs than the larger areas, like Forsyth and Guilford (counties). The population they serve might look a little different than the population we serve."
The Davidson County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution last year in support of Davidson County remaining a local area for workforce development. Thomasville City Council approved a similar resolution Monday at its regular meeting.
"We feel like we have a really good, local effort that helps people find jobs and helps people without a job, and we don't want to see that diluted by putting it in a larger group," said Thomasville City Councilman Scott Styers. "Even though you may get more federal funding as a larger area, it doesn't guarantee that funding will be spent here in Davidson County."
If approved, the new workforce development areas would increase in range from three to 12 counties, and each area's population would range from 172,000 people to 2 million people.
Rep. Julia Howard, R-Davie, is the primary sponsor of the Reform Workforce Development resolution in the House. Howard could not immediately be reached for comment Thursday.
Sen. Fletcher Hartsell, R-Cabarrus, serves as the primary sponsor for the resolution in the Senate. Hartsell also could not immediately be reached for comment.
If approved, the legislation would go into effect immediately.
Nash Dunn can be reached at 249-3981, ext. 227, or at email@example.com.

My kids weren't happy with RA before. When they heard that because I have RA, they have to get a shot instead of nasal spray for the flu, they were incredulous. "That's not fair!" they say, "We're not the ones who are sick."
Good. Let's keep it that way.
Following doctor's instructions, a few days ago I phoned his office to see about the H1N1 vaccine. They still didn't have injectable, but did have the nasal spray for my kids. But… but… I was told that with the meds I'm on, my kids need to get the shot. After being put on hold twice, the nurse said that the odds of my getting sick from my kids getting the nasal spray are extremely small. No appointments for a week, so I hesitatingly booked slots for all the kids. None for me until the injectable comes in.
Today I decided to try again. They do have injectable, but it's only available for high-risk patients. I wanted to pound the phone on the counter! The doctor told me to call. I really do have other things I could be doing with my time.
To tell the truth, if it weren't for my kids, I wouldn't get the shot. Everybody will die sooner or later, including yours truly. But I'd like to postpone the inevitable. I'd like to see my kids grow up. I want to be here for them. That means I need to take reasonable precautions to prevent things like H1N1.
When all I'm doing is following the doctor's orders, I don't need any flak from anyone, including his receptionist. It is hard enough dealing with the day-to-day struggles of this %#&$@ disease. Do not give me any grief about why I count as high risk.
I will be getting my shot this afternoon. Maybe it will take effect fast enough that it won't be a problem when my kids get the nasal spray next week.

Democrat John Ryerson will try to unseat incumbent Republican Margaret Ann Ruhl in the Nov. 6 race to represent the 68th Ohio House District.
Democrat John Ryerson will try to unseat incumbent Republican Margaret Ann Ruhl in the Nov. 6 race to represent the 68th Ohio House District.
The newly formed District 68 includes all of Knox County as well as the portion of Delaware County east of Interstate 71.
Ruhl, 56, was elected to the office in 2008. She previously worked as auditor for the city of Mount Vernon for 11 years and also has served as Knox County auditor and as a Mount Vernon payroll officer since graduating from Fredericktown High School.
She voted in favor of Gov. John Kasich's two-year state budget, which erased the deficit but took big chunks of funding from schools and local government.
"We had a huge hole to fill, and we couldn't make enough cuts in the state budget without cutting funds for local governments," she said.
She said Ohio's school funding system needs fixes, and said some districts are underfunded. But she said she'll leave it up to the House education committee to work out a detailed plan.
Ruhl said building strong schools is a recipe for a strong economy.
"We have to have good-quality schools to attract businesses that have families to come here," she said.
She said state officials need to reach out to businesses interested in moving to Ohio and be better ambassadors for the state, and said Kasich's private economic development body JobsOhio is a "good start."
Ruhl opposes State Issue 2, which would create a court-appointed committee to draw up boundaries for legislative districts. She said reforms are needed to prevent partisan gerrymandering, but said the committee would be unaccountable to voters.
She said the state should set up its own health-insurance exchange, as mandated under President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act. If the state fails to act, the federal government will intervene.
"I definitely don't want the federal government telling us what to do," she said.
Ruhl supported the efforts of some Ohio lawmakers to limit early voting in the three days before the election. She said it would save money with negligible impact on voters.
"I know how expensive running a board of elections is, and to me, it's just an added expense," she said. "By the end of October, most people should have done their early voting already."
She voted to keep hydraulic fracturing, often called fracking, in Ohio. She said the method of extracting natural gas using high-pressure water and chemicals is a boon to the economy and added regulations are in place to assuage environmental concerns.
Ruhl said she's also a gun-rights advocate and supports strict regulations against abortion rights.
if elected to a second term, she said she'd focus on improving roads and infrastructure to allow businesses to easily ship their products across the state.
Ruhl lives in Mount Vernon. She is unmarried and has no children.
Ryerson, 62, is an attorney in private practice. He holds a bachelor's degree in journalism from Northwestern University and a law degree from Ohio State University.
He harshly criticized Kasich's two-year budget, which he said balanced the state budget on the backs of local taxpayers.
"There were a lot of moves made to take away from local government and especially the schools, which time has shown were not necessary," he said.
"It directly transfers the responsibility onto the residents and local governments."
He said he'd work to restructure the state's property tax-based school funding method, which twice has been declared unconstitutional by the Ohio Supreme Court.
"Let's see if we can get on track to make the system constitutional and remove the burden from individual taxpayers," he said.
To build the economy, Ryerson said he would work to expand the state's technological infrastructure and invest in business "incubators" for the tech and energy industries.
He said state officials must be better advocates for their districts in talks with interested businesses.
Ryerson backs State Issue 2. He said the nonpartisan commission envisioned by the law would be better suited to draw up legislative boundaries than elected lawmakers.
"It has some problems, no doubt about it, but it's a lot better to the system we have now, which leads to public cynicism and apathy, because people feel the whole thing is fixed," he said.
He said the state should embrace the president's healthcare reform law by setting up an insurance exchange for Ohioans.
Ryerson also said efforts to curb Ohio's early-voting opportunities, driven by Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted, were politically motivated.
"Anything to encourage early voting is good," he said. "It builds public confidence and trust in the system. In my opinion, Husted's motives are suspicious at best."
He has reservations about fracking. He said it could be a boon to local economies, but added regulations must be stronger to avoid contaminating groundwater, among other environmental concerns.
Ryerson said he favors a woman's right to have an abortion, and said he'd work to repeal a law that allows concealed-carry of guns in bars.
He said he has a particular interest in working to improve Ohio's adoption practices and expand the rights of biological parents who give up a child for adoption.
Ryerson lives in Gambier. He is divorced and has two adult sons.

Cooking schools or culinary schools as they are also called are classic illustrations of the premise that if you want to join a trade, the best and only thing to do is to learn it from those who practice it. Before there were cooking schools, those aspiring to become chefs would work at restaurants and hotels as apprentices, toiling eighteen hours a day, mostly for little or no wages, learning from master chefs. Although this is no longer the standard practice today, many senior chefs do take on apprentices who arrive at their food service facilities as interns.
The Latter-day Scenario
For those interested in becoming a chef at a restaurant, hotel, golf club or a catering facility, cooking schools offer the best alternative to full-blown hospitality degrees from established universities where cooking is one of the focus areasnot the only focus area. As is the case with every category of educational institutions or institutions of higher learning, cooking schools provide students with a dazzling array of choices. Here are three factors to consider when selecting a cooking school for yourself.
Chef's School in the Right Location
Although most cooking schools are self-contained and provide most if not all the learning facilities one may need to become a professional chef, cooking schools located in or near large cities tend to have a strategic advantage. Proximity to a large city, especially one that boasts a culinary tradition of its own like New Orleans, New York or San Francisco, allows you to build your very own network which can be useful when you enter the job market. Moreover, your cooking school is able to arrange site visits and project trips to area restaurants, hotels and resorts more frequently as the gamut of choices tends to be more widespread.
Cuisine Style and Teaching Philosophy
Cooking is both a science and an art. Many cooking schools will offer you more than one culinary choice in terms of the cooking degree they will offer you. However, there are culinary schools which specialize only in one culinary style and these are traditionally known to be superior. You should take this factor into consideration when narrowing your choices down to the right cooking school for you. If it is French cooking that interests you, look for a culinary school that specializes in French cooking. If you are planning to become an Italian chef, seek a reputable cooking school that specializes in Italian cuisine. Better still, consider pursuing your degree in its country of origin. If you pursued the culinary degree in Italy for instance, you wouldn't learn just Italian cooking but more specifically Tuscany style cooking, Venetian cuisine or northern Italian cookery.
Conducting a Cost Benefit Analysis of your Proposed Cooking School Degree
Once you have short-listed the cooking schools that interest you, it is time to perform a cost benefit analysis. Divide the total tuition fee by the total number of contact hours you will be spending in a classroom and laboratory or learning kitchen environment to arrive at an approximate per-hour cost of instruction at the school. Although this is by no means the only measure of evaluation, using this figure as a benchmark is an excellent way for you to assess the value proposition.
There are scores of online resources you can use when researching the right culinary school for yourself. The extent of research you could will, to a great extend, determine the kind of culinary training you will receive. Therefore, take the time to explore possibilities using as many online resources as you can find and chances are that you will eventually find yourself in a culinary school that will well surpass your expectations.

Dark Realm Records in Los Angeles has managed to stay open for years and years and they carry honest and no bullshit metal exclusively. The shop has a great selection of cd's, vinyls, shirts, videos, even patches, ammo belts etc. Have no idea how the guys in Sadistic Intent have been able to keep it open!!! I really suggest you visit the shop if you can, and talk with them about the business and how they're survived all this time.
If you want to be more successful an online mail order is a mandatory idea in my opinion.

there was recently an all-metal store in ny (metal kingdom) but i think it shut down now.... there used to be 2 decent shops in my area, with decent metal selection that were around for years, now closed... even just the typical rock store can't make it.. i hate to give a bleak view.... i look around my area, and notice tons of metal fans in the woodwork... i keep thinking its an opportunity to open the only record store in the area... but theres at least 9 or 10 metal fans at my job alone, and all of them have a blank stare when i say i buy records or cd's... they all download
they do go to shows though, so maybe that person who opened his house into a venue with metal store, that seems like a great idea.... and the internet/mailorder would be essential also... i noticed Vintage Vinyl no longer sells their oop metal lp's anymore, they save em for ebay

I hate to be a real bummer, but I think success is unlikely. Here's why:
I am a volunteer at our local punk/metal (more punk than metal) record store here in Minneapolis. Keep in mind that this is an all-VOLUNTEER run and owned (no profit) record store that has been around for over 10 years. In other words, all revenue earned goes to pay the rent, bills, and buy more records and CDs. There is only one paid employee, the accountant, and she works VERY part-time.
Every year sales drop more and more and it is becoming increasingly possible that the store will have to close someday. The reality is that music downloads are killing business more and more. Vinyl is almost unprofitable when you factor in high manufacturing costs, which lead to high wholesale and retail prices. We mark up 50% from wholesale costs, so a $10 wholesale record sells for $15. $5 of revenue on a record, then subtract shipping costs, that record's share of the rent and bills, any employee wages, the share of that money that needs to go to buying more music (to expand inventory, etc.), and you have about 0 profit to feed yourself.
CDs are much more profitable because manufacturing costs are so much lower and retail prices are not much lower than vinyl, BUT fewer and fewer people are buying CDs. The newspaper said yesterday that half of ALL teenagers did not buy a single CD in 2007.
That said, if you give it a shot, I wish you all the best. The world could use more good METAL record stores.
This pretty much says it all. CDs are a dying format. Nobody wants to pay for something that they can get for free off the internet.
The only three options are this:
1.) Buy wholesale and sell cheap. $15, even $10 CDs are a thing of the past. People will be far more inclined to pay $5 for a CD anyway.
2.) (for labels/bands) Make limited / special format releases only. Hand number them. String barb wire around them and smother them with poo. This will spur the heavy-metal hunter mentality in people and get them to buy your CDs. Mass produced media isn't a realistic option for small and lesser known labels anymore. You'd be lucky to sell 50 copies of your album before it's uploaded to the internet.
3.) Give up on the idea of selling CDs and start selling drugs instead. There's tons of money in selling drugs because there's tons of people that do drugs. It's just that simple, you know?

I too have always thought about how they managed to stay open as an independant shop for ...what, 14+ years now? Yeah, they definitely have their ups and downs, just like any business.
But in the past years, as Rick would say, it's been downhill with not much income coming in due to alot of online mailorders/distros, ebay, mp3/itunes digital download stuff. This is not even mentioning Amoeba's.
With the demise of Tower Records [which was located about a mile away from their location], their sales havn't risen TOO much, oddly enough.
Another reason, I think, they survived this long is that they are honest and down to earth people who ARE fans and support REAL Metal themselves. Most record shops that i've been to the employees are not much fans of the older Metal bands/styles,etc. and instead cater to the newer generation.
Anyone that lived in the LA area during the mid/late 80's that remember Wild Rags Records will tell you that Richard was rude/pushy and basically a dick to all the customers that went in.
You can actually talk to them about any music/show/band/album,etc. They are very cool with the customers and when one receives that treatment, you definitely will return.
10 years later I still do.
Maybe it's a bit uncalled for, but perhaps another [small] reason Dark Realm has survived is due to the 'band' running the shop.
Despite it all, I think an online mail order/distro/label as NWN, Iron Pegasus, HHB, etc. will be much succesful then opening a shop in these hard times.
-and from the looks of the posts, it seems to be worldwide and not just North America.
Still, follow your dreams and do what you feel. Just be ready when reality hits.

My apologies for this thread necromancy.
Amoeba is getting a lot better with stocking UG CD's and LP's. They even sell their shit on eBay occasionally.
Lucikily for me, a 5 minute drive to the local major business street (a huge strip for miles of just 100% retail/business) has this new chain store called Rasputin's (old Tower records store sucked ass) that has a huge section of metal CD's and LP's. Pretty obscure shit. Even a lot of NWN! stuff. I think most of the metal promoters here work there... which is probably a plus. Also, metalcore is kept to a low, which I love, but thought was a bizarre financial move.

Yeah, another one I was going to mention.
Somewhat on the same level as Dark Realm, only difference was B.M had more variety as classical,punk,jazz I think, and so on.
Dark Realm is strictly Metal, yet ALOT smaller then B.M was.

Baseball honors fallen Arizona firefighters
The loss of 19 elite firefighters while battling a horrific blaze in Arizona on Sunday has the entire nation mourning an unimaginable tragedy.
Baseball, too, will be part of the grieving process.View Full Game Coverage
The loss of 19 elite firefighters while battling a horrific blaze in Arizona on Sunday has the entire nation mourning an unimaginable tragedy.
Baseball, too, will be part of the grieving process.View Full Game Coverage
All seven home clubs on Monday's Major League schedule will honor the memory of the 19 men, all but one of them members of the Prescott (Ariz.) Granite Mountain Hotshots -- a unit trained to fight the most severe wildfires -- with a moment of silence before their games.
On Sunday, 85 miles northwest of Phoenix, near the town of Yarnell, the firefighters were at work battling a monstrous blaze that is believed to have been started by a lightning strike on Friday, amid a region-wide heat wave that saw parts of California reach close to 130 degrees.
"Hotshot" crews are tasked with clearing brush and debris and setting up barriers on the front lines of fires -- in this case, one that had consumed a reported 9,000 acres.
Wind shifts and low humidity can turn the situation deadly very quickly, even for the most experienced, and multiple reports indicate that this is what happened on Sunday in the worst loss of life for firefighters since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when 343 died at the World Trade Center in New York.
"They were heroes -- highly-skilled professionals who, like so many across our country do every day, selflessly put themselves in harm's way to protect the lives and property of fellow citizens they would never meet," President Barack Obama said.
On Monday, the only Major League team from Arizona, the D-backs, was in New York to play the Mets at Citi Field. But club president and CEO Derrick Hall reacted to the tragedy in a club-wide email, while pledging to assist in recovery efforts.
"As my mood was at a seemingly season-low yesterday after the loss, it quickly became a petty matter when the news of the fire was delivered and all was put back into proper perspective," Hall wrote. "My heart is aching for the fallen firefighters and the entire community turned upside-down by this unfair act of weather and nature. It is devastatingly amazing how quickly our lives can change in a matter of moments.
"We should feel so fortunate to have our health, our homes and our families. And we should feel even more fortunate to be in a position to assist.
"We have challenged a few of our leaders and departments to create a plan today that we can implement this weekend to best recognize those who lost their lives while attempting to protect others, as well as raise funds for a community torn apart.
"Sadly, this tragedy is far from over and more devastating news will continue to be exposed. In the meantime, I ask that you keep the victims and their families in your thoughts and prayers."

The arctic fox is very well adapted to the extreme cold of the arctic environment and can be found all around the Arctic.
Arctic fox, polar fox
Least concernIUCN
Scientific Name
Alopex lagopus
Geographic Location
Circumpolar in Arctic tundra habitats
In winter, the Arctic fox is white, but in the summer its coat becomes thinner and changes to a brown and yellow colour.
Length: 85cm
Tail: 31cm
Weight: average 3.5kg
The Arctic fox eats Arctic hares and some birds and bird eggs. But the main source of food is the lemming and the population size fluctuates with the cycle of the lemming population.
The conservation status of the species is good, except for the Scandinavian mainland population where it is endangered. The total population estimate in Finland, Norway and Sweden is a mere 120 adult individuals.
The main threat to the Arctic fox has historically been hunting, although this has decreased in line with the decline in the fur trade. The Arctic fox remains the single most important terrestrial game species and is still hunted by indigenous peoples.
Other threats include diseases and the spread North of the larger and more aggressive red fox (Vulpes vulpes), which has encroached on arctic fox territory in some areas. This is an indirect threat to the arctic fox as a result of climate change.
What is WWF doing?
WWF's work to mitigate the effects of climate change aims to ensure that species such as the Arctic fox are not adversely affected by changes to the climate.

Did you know?
- Arctic foxes are monogamous, and each pair establishes a territory, or home range, which they use for several years.
- Arctic foxes have more young per litter than any wild mammal in the world.

Russell Wilson isn't the only rookie quarterback going to the Pro Bowl.
The Colts have announced that rookie quarterback Andrew Luck has been selected to play in Sunday's Pro Bowl in place of Tom Brady, who is out with an injury. There's no word on the nature of Brady's injury, but I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that if the Patriots had beaten the Ravens on Sunday, this injury would not have kept Brady out of the Super Bowl.
Luck's Pro Bowl honor comes after a season in which he set the rookie records for passing yards (4,374), pass attempts (627) and 300-yard passing games (six).
Wilson was named to the Pro Bowl today in place of the injured Matt Ryan. Redskins rookie Robert Griffin III was also named to the Pro Bowl but will not play. Some day, Luck, Wilson and Griffin will be grizzled veterans like Brady who have been to so many Pro Bowls that they no longer care. For now, watching Wilson and Luck — two young players who will be genuinely happy to be there — will be the best reason to watch the Pro Bowl. Maybe the only reason to watch the Pro Bowl.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Senior Mike D'Auria added more individual hardware to his growing list of accolades after leading MIT basketball to one of its best seasons ever. The reigning NEWMAC Player of the Year was recently named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America men's basketball team, securing the second Academic All-America honor for the Institute this year.
D'Auria closes his career as the Institute's third all-time leading scorer with 1,528 points. His total of 586 points this year fell three points short of matching the single-season points record set by Dave Jansson in 1968. The senior co-captain from Newton, Mass., also set the program's single-season record in 2006 with 71 steals in addition to the school mark for field goals made (257).
D'Auria caps his career among the program's leaders in a myriad of categories, including assists (345) and steals (154), where he ranks third on Tech's all-time charts. Last week, D'Auria became the first Engineer to earn Player of the Year honors from the NEWMAC in men's basketball and just the second player in the program's 105-year history to be named the top player in their league.
Landing a spot on the Third Team in the College Division, D'Auria's selection to the Academic All-America squad is the fifth national honor in the program's history and the first appointment since Craig Heffernan copped Third Team honors in 2001.

Just a quick question as this has me stumped, I am painting a car out the back of my property and of course this type of job requires masking tape, I would love to know why the Australian native (stingless) bees are so attracted to the residue left behind after removing the tape? they are so drawn to it even when the tape is on the body they are trying to get underneath it ? the genus i am referring to is definitely trigona one of the many different species here in Australia, why are they so attracted to this "gum" cellulose?, some sort of sugar in the adhesive? I am very interested as to know why?

Antitrust Lawsuit Filed in New York
According to a recent edition of BICSI News, telecommunications contractors U.S. Information Systems, Inc. (USIS) and the Odyssey Group, Inc. brought an antitrust lawsuit in New York federal district court in Manhattan against the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 3 and six electrical contractors that employ Local 3 workers. In their complaint, USIS and Odyssey state the antitrust violations result in $50 million in damages. Both companies contend that, for the past few years, legitimate and competent telecommunications contractors have been prevented from engaging in fair competition in the bidding, award, and completion of telecommunications construction projects within the New York Metropolitan area.

Oil surged more than 2 percent on Tuesday, rallying for a second straight day and receiving a lift from gains on Wall Street and a weaker dollar as investors awaited U.S. election results.
Continue Reading Below
U.S. stocks extended gains, with both the Dow and S&P 500 up more than 1 percent, while the dollar edged lower against major currencies as investors booked profits on recent gains.
President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney were neck-and-neck as Americans cast votes for president and Congress, polls showed on Tuesday.
"The stock market is up and that's helping crude," said Mark Waggoner, president at Excel Futures Inc.
U.S. gasoline futures also pushed higher as the effort to restart the New York Harbor energy network after Hurricane Sandy hit a bump on Monday when Phillips 66 said its Bayway refinery in Linden, New Jersey, will take two to three weeks to resume operations.
News on Monday of BP Plc's crude unit overhaul at its Whiting, Indiana, refinery added support for gasoline and helped increase Brent's premium to U.S. crude on the expectation it will raise crude oil stockpiles at the Cushing, Oklahoma, delivery hub for the U.S. crude contract.
"The maintenance at the Whiting refinery and the Bayway refinery remaining shut after the storm are helping push RBOB up," said John Kilduff, partner at Again Capital LLC in New York.
The S&P GSCI index, one of two leading commodity indexes for investors, will cut the weighting of U.S. crude oil futures by 6.25 percentage points next year while increasing Brent by 4 percentage points, owner S&P Dow Jones Indices said late on Monday, also lending support to Brent's premium to U.S. crude.
Brent December crude was up $2.37 at $110.10 a barrel at 1:16 p.m. EST (1816 GMT), having pushed back above the 100-day moving average of $108.47. Brent ended nearly 2 percent higher on Monday, rallying after falling during the session to $104.76, its lowest price since Aug. 1.
U.S. December crude rose $2.47 to $88.12 a barrel. U.S. crude also ended higher on Monday, but only after recovering from a $84.34 session low, the lowest price since July.
Total Brent trading volume outpaced U.S. crude turnover, with Brent nearing its 30-day average.
Brent's premium to U.S. crude seesawed in volatile trading on Tuesday, but increased to $22.99 a barrel during the session.
Crude on both sides of the Atlantic had posted three consecutive weekly losses.
"The market was oversold (last week)," said Christopher Bellew, a broker at Jefferies Bache. "It has been a very long move downwards from $115 down to about $105, so it's quite likely that we are going to continue upwards."
U.S. December RBOB gasoline futures moved up 7 cents to $2.6902 a gallon, a more than 2 percent jump.
U.S. December heating oil , the benchmark distillate contract, rose 4.86 cents to $3.0368 a gallon, back above the 200-day moving average of $3.0284.
North Sea crude oil production that underpins the Brent contract is set to drop 5,000 barrels per day in December from November, loading programs showed on Tuesday.
Maintenance at the North Sea Buzzard field had supported crude, especially Brent, in recent weeks.
Turmoil in the Middle East, including fighting in Syria and Iran's dispute with Israel and the West about Tehran's nuclear program, continue to support crude futures, especially Brent, because of Europe's proximity to the region and greater dependence on supply from producers in the area.

Who writes video games? Fifteen years ago the answer wasn't obvious - with the odd exception it was usually a mix of coders, artists, marketing people and executives. Just not writers.
In these gradually enlightening times, that's starting to change. And not just in the indie scene.
Take Tomb Raider, the gritty big-budget reboot of the legendary Lara Croft character, which has won rave reviews and looks set to storm the charts.
Developers Crystal Dynamics didn't just hire renowned games writer Rhianna Pratchett to lead its narrative team - it put Lara's story at the heart of the game. 'Tomb Raider' rebuilds the franchise from the ground up, casting Lara as a young inexperienced historian thrown into a world of deadly adventure, and forced to survive in brutal circumstances. The result looks set to transform an ailing icon into a next-generation superstar.
So why is story-telling in games coming into what Tomb Raider's original co-creator and gaming luminary Ian Livingstone calls a "second golden age"?
And how can the industry's senior figures attract a new generation of writers to tell stories on its next-generation consoles?
We spoke to Ian Livingtone and Rhianna Pratchett to find out.
The full interview (lightly edited for space) is below. Here are some of the highlights:
Rhianna Pratchett:
- Low-budget games can tell great stories: "Look at Journey, it tells a beautiful story very simply. That's wonderful to see because it uses the tools so well."
- How to attract new talent to games: "There are certainly a lot of opportunities in games that young people are not aware of, young women in particular..."
- Balancing narrative with gameplay: "Sometimes the needs of narrative don't always win through. Sometimes it's gameplay that does..."
Ian Livingstone:
- The future of games: "The medium is still very young. If you look at it in terms of the film industry, we're only in the 1930s..."
- Golden Age? "You could almost say the second golden age of gaming is happening right now..."
We're still at the start of games as a medium in some ways. Have video gamers played their (sign) 'Citizen Kane', yet? A story in games which will last 40 years, or more?
RP: It's difficult because of the tech involved in games. It can be difficult to play a game that is 10 years old, let alone 40. I think we're still pushing the medium as far as story-telling is going.
When I started in the industry people weren't really talking about storytelling in games. It was done but it was behind the scenes, games writers weren't talking about it that much. Now there is a lot more focus on dialogue and narrative, what we're doing right and wrong, how writers should be used.
Is that depth of narrative always required?
RP: It's about finding the right tools for the job. It isn't about shoving traditional narratives in, it's about using the medium to tell the story and not just text or cut-scenes, but environmental and secondary devices, like diaries, documents, letters. Also things like level dialogue - Lara talks a lot as she goes along in the game, she examines the environment. Even her animations can be used to explain character.
But you can do a lot with something quite simple - if you look at Journey, it tells a beautiful story very simply. That's wonderful to see because it uses the tools so well.
Do indie games lend themselves to different types of stories?
RP: I really enjoyed The Walking Dead, whether it's considered an indie game or not I'm not really sure, but that was one that for me pushed story-telling and used the game mechanics very well.
IL: I think story is important in any entertainment experience. The horsepower of console machines allows richer storytelling which in years gone-by wasn't always available. So it's great to be able to bring great story-tellers like Rhianna on board to help craft a new way of engaging with consumers.
On the indie side I think it's great to see the opportunity for people to express themselves in new and original ways. The medium is still very young. If you look at it in terms of the film industry, we're only in the 1930s and yet we've achieved so much in such a relatively short period, the games industry is bigger than most other entertainment industries. It's $50 billion a year, and will rise to $90 billion by 2015, so it's a fantastic career opportunity, if only people knew about it.
There's work being done to encourage coders and young people into making games, including by yourselves. But could more be done to do the same to get artists and writers into games?
RP: There are certainly a lot of opportunities in games that young people are not aware of, young women in particular. That's something that I'm trying to work with various organisations like Lady Geek and Bafta to create initiatives to help young women look at games as an opportunity… It's really about the industry getting involved with schools and giving them information about what careers are out there.
Above: 'Tomb Raider' head writer Rhianna Pratchett
Have you been pleased by the positive reaction to 'Tomb Raider'?
RP: I don't think you ever know what to expect. It's always a nerve-wracking experience when the reviews come out and the game hits the shelves. I poured two and half years of my life into Tomb Raider and you're always on the edge of your seat. But as you say it's been received pretty well and we're already getting feedback from players enjoying the game.
Ian, also on the reaction to the game - does it feel as though the series has been in a sense 'reborn'?
IL: Lara Croft has survived the test of time. The first Tomb Raider appeared in 1996 and has there have been many sequels since. Crystal Dynamics has looked very closely at today's audience to make sure the franchise was relevant. At the same time we looked at the success of the reboots of Batman and James Bond and thought it might be an appropriate time to look at Tomb Raider in a similar manner.
At the same time many fans around the world were writing in requests to know more about the young Lara. Therefore it was a brave and bold decision I think to go for the origin story to make this Tomb Raider a prequel rather than a sequel while still playing to the three core components of a Tomb Raider game - exploration and adventure, coupled with puzzle solving albeit environmental puzzles in this instance, and combat.
Writing a game is a team effort, but how would Tomb Raider have differed if it had just been your vision?
RP: I think my vision is pretty close to the one we've got. Obviously working with games you're always working within boundaries and limitations so you're balancing the need for gameplay and the need for narrative, and for the game to be fun and absorbing.
Sometimes the needs of narrative don't always win through. Sometimes it's gameplay that does, and we're working on a game so you have to expect that. But it's been a very rewarding experience being part of rebooting and reimagining someone like Lara Croft.
There's a new generation of consoles on the way, and a lot of speculation about them. Are you confident that there are new kinds of stories that can be told with the huge firepower of the new generation?
IL: It seems to me that every iteration of technology allows amazing new things to happen on screen… It's always great that the games industry evolves quicker than other entertainment industries because of advances in technology. There are always challenges but also opportunities…
Everyone is carrying a smartphone around in their pocket which is games-enabled, there are hundreds of millions of people playing games on Facebook. There are more opportunities for new types of content, created by new creative entrepreneurs to reach global audiences via high-speed broadband. You could almost say the second golden age of gaming is happening right now.
RP: For me it's less about the tech but more about the ideas. Things like the better integration of writers and narrative professionals into the games industry, and getting them in earlier in the process.
Are there also dangers in that developers get their hands on a bunch of new tech toys and narrative takes a back seat again?
RP: Oh gosh I hope not! It has been quite an uphill battle so far. I'd hate to reach the summit of one mountain peak to see another one beyond it.

intro to debate
In 1994 a long debate took place on the Internet concerning the validity of Tasawwuf in Islam. The primary participants in this debate were Shaykh Hisham Mohammed Kabbani and Shaykh Muhammad Adly. The originator of the questions, Shaykh Muhammad Adly, failed to respond to the presentations of Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, in which he presented the details of the daleels (evidences) for the validity of the Science of Tasawwuf, according to the Qur'an and Sunnah, the practice of the Sahaba, the practice of the Tabi'een, the Tabi' Tabi'een and the Salaf as-Salih and according to the Khalaf scholars, including Ibn Taymiyya.
What follows is this debate as it appeared on the Internet, formatted for easy reading.

Sabre's introduction of the Sabreline 47 redefined the "downeast" style motoryacht. At one time, a "downeast motoryacht" described a modified version of a workboat converted for use as a private yacht. Designed for comfort in rough, offshore conditions, yet capable of smooth running at top speeds of over 20 knots, the modified deep-V hulls quickly gained popularity as they earned a reputation for reliability and seaworthiness. Side decks are wide and comfortable, and ball bearing mounted salon doors slide for and aft so as not to impede passage on the side decks. Above the walk-around deck are two additional surfaces: the aftermost is the sundeck and the other is the command bridge, with its matching helm seats, U-shaped settee and table, aft engine controls and instrumentation, and room for navigation electronics. The Sabreline 47 can be configured with a wide variety of interior options and finishes. A full head with VacuFlush, and a full galley are standard. A U-shaped settee is opposite the entertainment center with convenient access to the sundeck and bridge. The master stateroom is aft. It is large and luxurious with its own shower and head unit.

Courts: Search A Cell Phone? No Problem. Touch A Mouse? Violate 4th Amendment.
from the 4th-amendment-law-is-confusing dept
The details of the case involve someone who posted a threat to Craigslist about bringing a gun to a mall. Police tracked the guy down at his house, and while there, one of them touched his mousepad, changing the screen from the blank screensaver mode to fully on, displaying some information that was used to arrest the guy. Since stuff seen in plain sight is not considered a search, the question is whether or not this uncovered things that were not in plain sight, and thus constituted a search. I can understand why the court ruled the way it did in this case (though I'm a bit surprised). I'm just struggling to understand how that's not a legal search, but something like scanning the entire contents of a mobile phone during a traffic stop is a legal search.

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has responded to delays caused by a software glitch in its TLD Application System (TAS) by offering a full refund of the US$185,000 application fee back to companies and individuals.
The glitch meant some applicants could view other applicant's file names under certain circumstances. The system remains suspended to allow ICANN to comb through top level domain applications logs and analyse data to determine which applicant information was viewed as well as repair and test the software glitch.
ICANN chief operating officer, Akram Atallah, said in a statement released on the ICANN website that the refund would be offered to generic top level domain (gTLD) applicants that want to withdraw prior to the publication of applied-for new TLD names.
"We believe it is an important part of fulfilling our commitment to treat applicants fairly and regret the difficulties that we know the temporary suspension of TAS is causing," he said.
TLD applications were originally meant to close on 12 April with the big reveal of which companies had applied for TLD names slated for 1 May 2012 in Australia. However, the software glitch has caused ICANN to delay the announcements.
Australian domain name management provider, Melbourne IT Group, (ASX: MLB) has managed 25 applications for Australian companies. A spokesperson for the company told Computerworld Australia that companies in the financial sector, retail and consumer goods industries had shown the most interest in applying for gTLDs.
The spokesperson added that while the go live date for TLDs is still slated for February 2013, the application deadline delay may mean that not all of the TLDs will go live that year.
"ICANN received 2,300 applications instead of the expected 1000-1500 so it's likely that the new domains will appear over time between 2013 and 2015," the spokesperson said.
