By Henry S. Richardson
Scholarly and regulatory attention to the ethics of medical research on human subjects has been one-sidedly focused on the prevention of moral disasters. Scandals such the US Public Health Service (PHS)'s Tuskegee syphilis experiments, which for decades observed the effects of untreated syphilis on the participants, most of whom were poor black sharecroppers, rightly spurred the broad establishment of a regulatory regime that emphasized the importance of preventing such severe harming and exploitation of the human subjects of research. Revelations in 2011 about a similarly horrific set of studies conducted by the PHS from 1946 to 1948 on sexually transmitted diseases has renewed this kind of concern, which has been strongly underlined in a recent report by the Presidential Commission for the Study of Ethical Issues. The regulations motivated by such abuses have established a two-pronged set of institutional protections well designed to make a recurrence of such horrors unlikely: (1) all plans ("protocols") for research involving human subjects must be approved by "Institutional Review Boards" (United States) or "Research Ethics Committees" (elsewhere), and (2) ordinary consent to participate will not suffice; instead, subjects may be enrolled only if they give their "informed consent."
Important as this concern is and as valuable as these institutionalized responses are, they dominate thinking about the ethics of medical research so much that the result is unbalanced. In particular, the "helping people" side of morality, which philosophers label with the word "beneficence," has been left undeveloped. The principles articulated in the Belmont Report, published in 1979 in response to the Tuskegee scandal by the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research, included beneficence, alongside respect for persons and justice, as one of its three guiding principles. In practice, however, the aspect of beneficence that has seen the fullest development, in this area, is that of non-maleficence — not hurting people — which many consider a principle distinct from that of beneficence.
This complaint of one-sidedness would be empty if there were not important ethical challenges for medical research involving human subject that arise from beneficence. Central among such challenges is the issue of researchers' obligations to provide "ancillary care" — medical care that their research subjects need but that is not necessary to conducting worthwhile and sound research in a safe manner. The issue of ancillary care is important in all contexts of medical research, from research on neglected diseases in developing countries to the most advanced, high-tech medical research on genetics or imaging technologies at tertiary hospitals in the developed world. A researcher studying extremely drug-resistant tuberculosis in southern Africa may discover that one of her participants is HIV-positive. Does this researcher have any moral responsibility to help with this person's HIV care? A genetics researcher working with banked DNA samples may discover a genetic anomaly that poses a dangerous threat that might be averted by clinical treatment. Does this researcher have any moral responsibility to communicate these results to a donor he has never met?
The medical research ethics community has been slow to recognize the challenge posed by the ancillary care issue, no doubt due in large part to that community's focus on the prevention of moral disasters. The so-called "standard of care" debate regarding medical research in developing countries burst onto the scene with an article and an accompanying editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine in 1997. At issue was whether it was ethical to give only placebos to those in the control arms of studies in Africa intended to determine the effectiveness of shorter administrations of the drug AZT in controlling the transmission of HIV from mother to fetus, despite the fact that the effectiveness of longer, carefully monitored administrations of that same drug had already been proven effective. One would not do that in the United States, so how can it be acceptable to do that in Africa? This important issue lies at the cusp between beneficence and non-maleficence. Using the longer AZT treatment for the controls would have helped them. Yet the thinking about this issue did not break out of the non-maleficence box, for the dominant reasoning seems to be that since participation in medical research unavoidably involves some risk, it is morally wrong to subject people to that risk unless there is a sound scientific reason for it. Where it is already known that a treatment is effective, some special argument would have to be made to explain why one should compare the new, proposed treatment to placebo rather than to the proven treatment.
The standard-of-care debate rages on, addressing these and other complexities pertaining to the kind of care medical researchers owe to their subjects for the disease or condition under study. The ancillary care issue, by contrast, concerns questions about what medical care researchers may owe to their subjects for other medical needs that may arise during a study. Sometimes, clinical physicians enroll their own patients in research studies. In those cases, they owe these people a doctor's full panoply of duties towards their patients — which may sometimes awkwardly conflict with these doctors' obligations as researchers. If we confine our attention to medical researchers who enroll subjects who are not (otherwise) their patients, however, we might wonder why they owe them any special help. The enrollment transaction is not merely a consenting one, but one held to a much higher standard than is buying a car or signing up for a white-water rafting trip. Why can't medical researchers just stipulate how much care they propose to provide for their subjects' ancillary needs? In developing country settings, it is likely that the research team is automatically providing their subjects more clinical services than are usually available to them. Why think that the researchers might be specially obligated to do any more than that?
To answer these questions, one needs to understand how medical researchers become morally entangled with the lives and needs of their research subjects.

2 Responses to "Medical research ethics: more than abuse prevention?"
Let me begin with a reality check to Professor
Richardson's assertion that "the ethics of medical
research on human subjects has been one-sidedly focused on the prevention of moral disasters".
Unfortunately, the main focus of "bioethics" (which is
the opposite of real ethics) is rather the cover-up of
such present disasters and continuing atrocities while
condemning abuses from many decades ago to convey an image of concern. Bioethicists deny the current ethics violations and thereby prevent their prevention.
Right while so-called bioethicists make unctuous "never
again" speeches about the syphilis studies in Tuskegee and Guatemala they defend the recent SUPPORT experiment of suffocating premature babies that was conducted in the U.S. from 2005 to 2009 and predictably killed 23 "extra" children in its low-oxygen group. They falsely pretend now that the researchers had no way of knowing the risks although these had openly predicted a increase of four percent in mortality and severe brain damage for that group.
Some of those same bioethicists also make knowingly
misleading statements that the babies enrolled in that experiment fared better than those not enrolled, omitting to mention that the not enrolled ones had been
sicker to begin with and could not be used honestly for
such a biased comparison.
The U.S. Office for Human Research Protection held a public hearing this August 28 on why the parental consent forms for this cruel experiment had lied by
hiding the known risks for the babies, but that Office
carefully avoided addressing the even more burning question why the researchers had been allowed to kill human infants for their misguided "research".
The Institutional Review Boards at all the 22 study sites had rubberstamped this deliberately lethal protocol and thereby proved that this alleged safeguard against Pre-Nuremberg-style abuses is merely a Potemkin
facade. And the editor at the NEJM that published the
results defended that predictably lethal experiment as
necessary for comparative effectiveness research, never mind the collateral damage in human lives.
Moreover, the Director of the U.S. National Institutes of Health and two of its Department Directors defended this protocol and willfully misquoted that ultra-low oxygen levels are safe for premature babies, thereby inducing gullible practitioners to kill and maim more babies every day.
For a documentation of these facts, see
searchSubjects.htm as well as the rest of that site.
The consumer advocacy organizations Public Citizen and Alliance for Human Research Protection have meanwhile pointed out additional ongoing experiments on premature babies with the same disregard for their lives and health.
Proposing that medical researchers should discuss what additional levels of care not related to their research they should provide seems to miss their main obligation to abide by the "first-do-no-harm" rule. In this context, this otherwise valid point of research ethics
merely serves to divert attention from their routine
gross violations of that rule.
Respectfully submitted,
Peter Aleff

Obama and a Nuclear Iran
by Shaun Appleby, Tue Jun 02, 2009 at 03:49:24 PM EDT
Obama has articulated what a lot of people have been thinking for some time on the illogic of the US position vis à vis Iran's clear ambition for nuclear technology:
LONDON -- President Barack Obama reiterated that Iran may have some right to nuclear energy - provided it takes steps to prove its aspirations are peaceful.
In a BBC interview broadcast Tuesday, Obama also restated plans to pursue direct diplomacy with Tehran to encourage it to set aside any ambitions for nuclear weapons it might harbor.
Iran has insisted its nuclear program is aimed at generating electricity. But the U.S. and other Western governments accuse Tehran of seeking atomic weapons.
"Without going into specifics, what I do believe is that Iran has legitimate energy concerns, legitimate aspirations. On the other hand, the international community has a very real interest in preventing a nuclear arms race in the region," Obama said.
The comments echo remarks Obama made in Prague last month in which he said his administration would "support Iran's right to peaceful nuclear energy with rigorous inspections" if Iran proves it is no longer a nuclear threat.
Nancy Zuckerbrod - Obama says Iran's energy concerns legitimate Washington Post (AP) 2 Jun 2009
This somewhat startling admission, contrary to the domestic media narrative, makes excellent sense and is aligned with growing conventional wisdom within the foreign policy establishment on the futility of portraying Iran's nuclear programme as an act of aggression in itself. The Israelis must not be very pleased, on the other hand Europeans, increasingly seeking access to abundant Iranian reserves to meet their natural gas needs in coming decades, are no doubt relieved. The speech in Prague was intended for a largely European audience.
Assuming Iran renews it's participation in the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and accepts International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspections there is little the US or Israel can do under international law to prevent them from developing a peaceful nuclear capability under Article IV of the NPT:
The treaty recognizes the inalienable right of sovereign states to use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, but restricts this right for NPT parties to be exercised "in conformity with Articles I and II" (the basic nonproliferation obligations that constitute the "first pillar" of the Treaty). As the commercially popular light water reactor nuclear power station uses enriched uranium fuel, it follows that states must be able either to enrich uranium or purchase it on an international market.
The tenor of House Minority Leader Eric Cantor's (R-Va) remarks that this policy is "dangerous" and "misguided" set the tone for this debate in domestic terms:
"I strongly disagree with President Obama's dangerous suggestion that Iran may have some right to nuclear energy." said Cantor in a statement provided to the Huffington Post. "Iran forfeited any right to nuclear energy when it made the decision to illicitly enrich uranium to levels that can be used for nuclear weapons."
Cantor: Obama Mid-East Policy "Dangerous" And "Misguided" Huffington Post 2 Jun 09
Under international law Cantor is clearly mistaken, though Iran now has 'pariah' status it is likely that it would be accepted back to the NPT, with considerable relief, by the international community. Obama is making a courageous stand domestically but not internationally, many of our allies have been reluctant to impose severe sanctions on Iran and alarmed at the aggressive rhetoric of the previous administration.
It should be pointed out that Iran has always insisted that their pursuit of uranium enrichment technology is for peaceful purposes, whether we believe them or not, and Supreme Leader Ayotollah Khamenei has gone on the record with a fatwa against nuclear weapons, which is pretty strong stuff for an Islamic theocracy:
A religious decree (fatwa) by Iran's supreme leader has even greater force in preventing the country from producing nuclear weapons than do treaties signed by Tehran, top nuclear negotiator Hassan Rowhani was quoted by the IRNA news agency Tuesday as saying.
"It is much more important for us to abide by this decree than the articles of the Non-Proliferation Treaty and its additional protocol," Rowhani said in a meeting with Danish Foreign Minister Per Stig Moeller on Monday.
According to Rowhani, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's fatwa forbids the production, stockpiling and use of nuclear weapons.
Fatwa restrains Iran more on nuclear weapons than treaty: negotiator Agence France-Presse 12 Apr 2005
Clearly we require more. But as Obama's diplomatic engagement with Iran takes shape it appears to consider accepting Iran's civilian pursuit of nuclear capability within the context of the NPT and IAEA inspections. Whether the US public is prepared for this outcome after years of alarmist rhetoric on Iran remains to be seen. Sometimes articulating the obvious seems an act of political courage.
Two more things are clear, Obama's timetable for "a good-faith effort to resolve differences" with Iran is based on the earliest estimates of when a nuclear weapon might be developed by them rather than any concession to Netanyahu. And the Obama administration is apparently indifferent to Ahmadinejad's electoral fortunes as the timing of this concilliatory message will likely strengthen Mahmoud's position on foreign policy, an issue which has become a focus of the Iranian elections to be held on 12 June.

Animal studies suggest that whey protein can increase gains in lean body mass resulting from exercise.1 A controlled trial found that six weeks of strength training while taking 1.2 grams of whey protein per 2.2 of pounds body weight per day resulted in greater gains in lean body mass, but improved only one out of four strength tests.2 Another controlled study found that people taking 20 grams per day of whey protein for three months performed better on a test of short-term intense cycling exercise than people taking a similar amount of milk protein (casein).3 However, a double-blind trial found that men taking 1.5 grams per 2.2 lbs of body weight per day of predigested whey protein for 12 weeks along with a strength training exercise program gained only half as much lean body mass and had significantly smaller increases in strength compared with men using a similar amount of predigested casein along with strength training.4 A controlled study of HIV-infected women found that adding whey protein to strength training exercise was no more effective than exercise alone for increasing strength or improving body composition.5References

Whey protein may aid weight loss due to its effect on appetite. In a preliminary study, people were given 48 grams of either whey protein or milk protein (casein). Whey consumption resulted in more hunger satisfaction and reduced the amount of food eaten 90 minutes later compared with casein consumption.1 However, a double-blind study found that men taking 1.5 grams per 2.2 lbs body weight per day of whey protein for 12 weeks along with a low-calorie diet and a strength training exercise program lost the same amount of weight and body fat as did a control group that followed a similar program, but took a casein supplement instead of whey protein.2References

Whey protein is a mixture of some of the proteins naturally found in milk. The major proteins found in whey protein include beta-lactoglobulin and alpha-lactalbumin. Whey protein has one of the highest protein digestibility-corrected amino acid scores (PDCAAS; a measure of protein bioavailability) and is more rapidly digested than other proteins, such as casein (another milk protein). 1

RALEIGH — Sanderson wrestling coach Jeremy Barefoot changed the format for the school's annual Sanderson Duals, but the result was the same as the past two years: Sanderson collected the championship trophy, celebrated and posed for team photos.
The Spartans defeated West Johnston in the final of the eight-team tournament, 44-21. Sanderson cruised through earlier rounds with dominating wins over Beddington, 84-0; Fuquay-Varina, 72-9; and Cleveland, 42-24.
"It's always special to win the first-place trophy in your own house," Barefoot said. "We came in with the mindset we wanted to win the title and we had a lot of kids do a great job. Some of the team scores weren't close, but there were a lot of tough matches. Schools like Green Hope had a lot of tough individual wrestlers."
Sanderson's three featured wrestlers turned in unbeaten records: senior Adam DeRose at 113 pounds, senior Christopher Grannan at 195 and senior Antwuan Elliott at 220.
Elliott's 3-1 win over West Johnston's Sam Campbell was the upset of the day in a match that took place when the two schools met in the first-place matches.
Campbell, a junior with an intimidating physique and three or four inches on Elliott, earned All-American honors in the National High School Coaches Association Folkstyle championships in April in Virginia Beach. He finished seventh and the top eight are earn All-America designation.
Campbell had pinned Elliott when they met early in the season. In Saturday's rematch, they were stalemated at 1-1 until Elliott recorded a takedown in the final seconds.
"That was an amazing match," Barefoot said. "Antwuan did an unbelievable job. He has a lot of heart. The first time they met, Antwuan had just come out of football season and he got pinned pretty quickly. But he's been working very hard. He has high self-expectations."
Just how high?
"This win tells me if I can beat him I can be an All-American, too," Elliott said. "After I lost to him, I came into this match with mind made up I was going to change the outcome. I've been working hard in practice, and I wanted to win to help our team win the tournament."
Knightdale defeated Cleveland in the third-place match, 42-40. Knightdale junior Brandon Skinner turned in a 5-0 day at 170 pounds. He was not only happy with the way he competed he said one of the advantages of a dual meet tournament is the additional matches compared to a traditional tournament format.
"You get a lot more experience that way," he said. "You might only wrestle three times in a regular tournament. I was happy with how I wrestled on my feet, and our team's third-place finish is the best we've done in this tournament."
Another change to the tournament was Barefoot turned the organization and the promotion of the event over to Sanderson students in a Sports Marketing Class at the school taught by Georgiana Consolo.
"This was their final exam and they did an outstanding job," said Barefoot, who presented Consolo with a medal along with the other athletes receiving awards.

Worse, they don't want to lose to a second straight game against a good team at home. They can't afford another loss to Dallas after losing to Cincinnati the week before.
And Dallas (4-3) won't be a pushover. It's a big game for the Cowboys as well. The two teams have split the last 10 meetings.
At some point, the Lions have to start beating good teams if they are serious about getting respect as a real contender.
Lions' fans should want them to not only make the playoffs, but win a playoff game -- their first since 1991.
Stop Calling Favre
Stop it.
Stop calling Brett Favre.
There were the lowly St. Louis Rams calling Favre, the former QB, to see if he was interested in playing again after QB Sam Bradford was injured.
Forget that he's 44 and a grandfather now or that his last go-round wasn't exactly championship material.
Why can't peeps get over the ghost of Favre? Yes, he had some career with the Falcons, Packers, Jets and Vikings. But does he have to play on every team in the league.
There are other younger quarterbacks looking for an opportunity, including Vince Young and Tim Tebow.
Plus, if you're a Rams' player, you have to question why the organization would go the Favre route, especially since they aren't ready to win this year.

Transcript Staff
The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — The St. Michael's Episcopal Church choir will offer a service of Lessons and Carols at 4 p.m. on Sunday. The service is open to the public.
"We're trying to reestablish an older tradition," said David Zittel, chairperson of the St. Cecilia's Guild that is sponsoring the event. "I've missed it and I'm glad to see us starting back up. It's a tradition that's near and dear to Fr. Alan's (Sutherland) heart. He hopes it will be reestablished as an annual event."
The guild's mission is to support and maintain the church's rich Anglican musical heritage at a high level while encouraging and exploring new types of musical experiences. An offering will be taken at the festival to support the work of the guild, which helps purchase choral music and hire singers for the choir.
"The last time we held a Lessons and Carols festival was in 1995," Zittel said. "At that time, the service was dedicated to choir member Betsy McGonnell," who perished in the Murrah building bombing.
Senior Warden Amy Gardner, said parishioners and clergy will read the lessons and the St. Michael's choir will sing the traditional carols used at King's College in Cambridge, England. The first festival of Nine Lessons and Carols was introduced in 1918 at King's College Chapel. According to the King's College website, it was introduced "to bring a more imaginative approach to worship." The yearly festival is broadcast around the world on Christmas Eve.
"All members of the community are invited to join us in starting off our Christmas season by celebrating Christ's birth," Gardner said.
Refreshments will be served after the service. A nursery will be available.

MOORESVILLE, N.C. -- Anyone who lives in Mooresville has seen the old Bay State Milling Company, which has been a landmark on Main Street in downtown for decades.
The mill, which makes flour, adds to the Mooresville tax base and employees people who live in town, but some residents are upset with their longtime neighbor, especially when it comes to noise.
"This just started about a year ago, started getting louder, and louder and louder," said Simeon Sordjan, who has lived in his house on Academy for five years.
Sordjan said the sounds were not bad the first four years but they intensified about 12 months ago. "Mooresville just doesn't seem to do anything about this and I don't know why."
Sordjan said that the noises, which come from the mill throughout the day, make his walls shake and do more than disrupt his day. It makes him sick.
"It's a constant humming inside the house. Even when the windows are closed it's driving me crazy," Sordjan said.
Sordjan said that he has contacted everyone from the mayor to the Governor asking for someone to step in to help solve the problem, but he has gotten nowhere.
The Town of Mooresville said that the plant had 12 noise complaints since October of 2011 and has not broken the law.
Sordjan just wants help.
"I believe they made over $60 million last year and they could have taken a small percentage of that money and put in sound proofing here," he said.

Several Lehigh Valley lawmakers look favorably upon Gov. Tom Corbett's plan to privatize the state's approximately 620 wine and liquor stores.
Under Corbett's plan, announced Wednesday afternoon in Pittsburgh, state liquor stores would be eliminated. That, it is hoped, would increase availability of beer, wine and liquor sales.
In a press release, Corbett committed $1 billion in proceeds from the process to education funding.
Corbett said that the $1 billion will be used to create the Passport for Learning Block Grant, which will provide flexibility to schools.
"Our plan gives consumers what they want by increasing choice and convenience, and helps to secure our future by adding $1 billion in funding toward the education of our children, without raising any taxes," Corbett said in the press release.
State Sen. Bob Mensch, R-24th District, said the idea of privatizing state liquor sales is popular within his district.
"Divesting is not a bad idea to me," said Mensch. "To me, it's an economically-driven decision. It could be handled by the private sector."
Mensch said he supported a bill introduced by House Majority Leader Mike Turzai, R-Allegheny. That bill, however, died before making it into the state Senate.
In Turzai's plan, beer distributors would have the first shot at buying 1,600 new liquor licenses — finally allowing Pennsylvanians to purchase beer and liquor in the same location.
Steve DeFrank, a spokesman for State Sen. Lisa Boscola, D-18th District, said the senator would have no statement on the matter at this time.
"We'll need at least a couple of days," DeFrank said. "The devil is always in the details. We'll have our Law and Justice committee as well as appropriations committee look at the details."
State Rep. Ryan McKenzie, R-134th District, said he supports efforts to remove government competition from industries that can be adequately operated by the private sector.
"Privatizing the liquor system in Pennsylvania provides the opportunity to reduce the size of government and allows the private sector to take over," he said.
McKenzie said he is reviewing the financial details of the proposal, along with the safety precautions that will be implemented alongside the private sale of wine and spirits.
State Rep. Marcia Hahn, R-138th District, said she was in favor of privatization during the last legislative session and stated 65 percent of her constituents agreed.
"I'm in favor of the concept," Hahn said. "There are just a few more things that I need to look at."
State Rep. Joe Emrick, R-137th District, said he's "generally a free market guy," but didn't have a position on the legislation yet since he hadn't thoroughly vetted it.
Meanwhile, the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce weighed in with the following statement:
"The Chamber doesn't have a formal stance. We commend the Governor for putting this entrepreneurial proposal on the table. The Chamber is built on the spirit of enterprise and there are certainly a number of members who have interest in buying into an opportunity like this. As always, jobs are a concern but we look forward to learning more details as the plan is debated in Harrisburg."
Corbett said the $1 billion in revenue will come from the three- to four-year process of selling the Liquor Control Board. A total of $575 million will come from the wholesale license process, $224 million from the wine and spirits retail auction process, $107 million from the wine/beer license application process and $112.5 million in the enhanced beer distributor application process.

TAHLEQUAH — Services for Ruth W. Pruitt will be held at 11 a.m., Tuesday, Jan. 15, at the First United Methodist Church in Tahlequah, with Rev. James Graham officiating.
Viewing will follow at the Hart Funeral Home from 1-5 p.m. Services were entrusted to the care and direction of Hart Funeral Home of Tahlequah. The online guest book is available at www.hartfuneralhome.net.
On Jan. 12, 2013, Ruth W. Pruitt returned home to her Lord Jesus. She was and will be remembered as a kind and loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, grandmother and friend. She lived her life as an example of one who is generous, patient, kind, charitable, trusting and good.
Ruth was born June 21, 1935, in DeValls Bluff, Ark., to Henry and Hattie Weare. She moved to Tahlequah in 1963 and served the Tahlequah area as a nurse for over 45 years. She was an active member of the First United Methodist Church. Her love for her church family kept her busy with countless projects, including mission trips, Feed My Sheep, God Answers Prayers, United Methodist Women, and Vacation Bible School. She was eager to help anyone in need.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Lytal Pruitt; brothers, Roy, Robert, Edgar and Arthur; sisters, Elizabeth and Sarah; and granddaughter, Ashley Kaye Pruitt.
She is survived by her sons, William Pruitt and wife Jean of Edmond, and Chris Pruitt of Jay; step-daughter, Mary McVay and husband Dan of Plano, Texas; grandchildren, Hailey, Alex, Katie, Lizzie, Travis and Joe; brother, Virgil and wife Mary Anne of California; and her daughter of the heart, Andrea. Many nieces, nephews, friends and other relatives also survive her.
One of her favorite Bible verses was Psalm 19:14: "Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my Redeemer." Ruth touched many lives and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Hart Funeral Home, 1506 N. Grand, (918) 456-8823.

Iowa public schools report an overall jump in enrollment for the 2012-13 school year.
Officials say the rise of 0.6 percent was the first significant increase since 1996. Overall enrollment had dropped in the five previous school years.
The Department of Education says the increase is due in part to an upsurge in birth rates from 2003 to 2008. The department's Jay Pennington says the increase "is refreshing news for Iowa after years of declining enrollment. However, the reality is that this increase most likely is temporary."
Pennington says the long-term trend shows declining enrollment in rural parts of Iowa.

In the past two years, however, many of the lenders and veterinary consultants I've spoken to have seen a noticeable spike
in practice start-ups throughout the country. These new businesses run the gamut from small operations (a mobile house-call
practice, for instance) to large (a multispecialty hospital) to those in between (a feline practice).
Regardless of practice size, the number of young, aggressive veterinarians hanging out their own shingles has surged. The
question is, why in this shaky economy would any veterinarian choose to start his or her own business?
The result? Many—not all, but many—of the practices currently for sale across the country are flawed. As one potential buyer
told me a few weeks ago, "There are a lot of damaged goods on the market right now."
A byproduct of this trend is a slew of impatient buyers in the profession. Most of these men and women—who are young, driven,
and business-savvy—know what they want in a practice and won't settle for less.
Unlike the previous generation, these practice buyers received a high-quality business education at an early age. This is
thanks to veterinary colleges doing a better job of introducing business education to students, veterinary business groups
growing more active on campuses, and convention organizers increasing and improving practice management CE.
These buyers understand finances, cash flow, charging appropriately, and profit. They've seen some of their colleagues or
mentors struggle with poor decisions, and they don't want to follow them down that path.
These young buyers understand the enormity of the implications of their decisions and don't want to "make do" with a damaged
or flawed practice. Their options are to wait for a practice worth buying to come along, to remain an associate for the foreseeable
future, or take the leap and start their own practice. Many are choosing the latter.

Plantar fibromatosis is a noncancerous (benign) enlargement of connective tissue in the sole (the plantar fascia).
In plantar fibromatosis, bumps develop on the sole and are most obvious when the big toe is pulled back and the foot is bent upward toward the leg. Many people also have bumps in the palms, usually located near the fourth knuckle.
Treatment is usually not worthwhile unless the bumps become large enough to cause pain when bearing weight. If so, orthoses (devices placed in the shoe) can help redistribute pressure away from the bumps.

24 Business Jobs Expected to Boom This Year
Feed your love of money by choosing one of these careers.
Business jobs are diverse in practice but share a common denominator: money.
Some business professionals partner with companies to study the intersection between data and consumer behavior; the intent being to maximize profits from the masses through spot-on branding. Others focus on the finances of the few, dishing out advice on where and how individuals should invest their resources.
Meanwhile, those in the cashier profession interact with money in its basic form: the hand-to-hand transaction. But as our list of the Best Business Jobs shows, each profession plays a unique role in the business world.
Between 2010 and 2020, the business sector is projected to add 3.8 million new jobs, according the U.S. Department of Labor. Here's a closer look at five jobs expected to flourish, and what it takes to achieve success in them.
See U.S. News's complete list of the Best Business Jobs.
1. Market Research Analyst. Conducting polls, crunching numbers, analyzing human behavior—these are a few of the techniques market research analysts use to decipher the shopping patterns and trends of consumers. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the field is expected to grow by about 41 percent in the coming decade.
A key driver of that growth is the business world's love of data. By dissecting and analyzing data, companies not only gain a strategy for increasing their bottom line, but for understanding what makes consumers tick.
"The more we have of data and the better quality that data is, the more useful it will be in creating strategy, and so I just don't see the market research analyst as a position going away anytime soon," says Joseph Cote, professor of marketing at Washington State University.
2. Management Analyst. Companies hampered by disorganization often turn to management analysts for thoughtful strategies to shave away inefficiency and increase profits. Between 2010 and 2020, employment in the field is expected to grow by 22 percent, according to the BLS.
Good management analysts, according to Cote, grasp how various organizational players create wealth for a firm. Another piece to that puzzle, he notes, is having the skills to manage stakeholder relationships to maximize a company's profits. "As you move into a more global economy, what we're seeing is that what makes a firm successful is understanding how to balance the [corporate] network or ecosystem around it," says Cote.
In that new business climate, "really understanding how an organization functions and how you structure an organization to gain its maximum value—I think that's going to become an increasingly important function," he adds.
3. Business Operations Manager. Leaving their imprint throughout several company departments, operations managers hire people, acquire materials for customers, and attempt to predict what products are most likely to sell.
The field can be characterized as high-demand and low-supply, with plenty of opportunity for those thinking of dipping their toe in it. "If we talk to any employer, that's the [position] they're most interested in, especially around the idea of project management," Cote notes. "So being able to run an operation and [in] particular, to manage complex projects, there's an increasing demand and fewer people there to fill it."
It's also a profession welcoming of individuals who possess the rare duel qualities of business instinct and a penchant for number-crunching. "It tends to require a blending of quantitative skills and qualitative skills, and that seems to be an area where people fall on one side or the other, but that middle road is not one people pursue," he says.
4. Financial Adviser. Mutual funds, asset classes, diversification—these are a few investment terms financial advisers break down as they direct you on where to allocate your money. Employment in the field is expected to grow by 32 percent by the decade's end, according to the BLS.
Thomas Blanchfield, managing director of investments for the private banking and investment group at Merrill Lynch, notes that the need for financial advisers has grown in part because employees are increasingly managing their own retirement savings these days, in 401(k) plans.
