Dreams of Burma: Explore the Country with this New App From National Geographic and Fotopedia
Burma is a country that, for many of us, only lives in our dreams. For years, it has been difficult for people to get into the country and experience its spectacular beauty.
Burma has long been known as a pariah state, isolated from the rest of the world with an appalling human rights record. From 1962 to 2011, the country was ruled by a military junta that suppressed almost all dissent and wielded absolute power in the face of international condemnation and sanctions. National Geographic Traveler and Fotopedia have set out to open our eyes with Dreams of Burma, an app for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. [Read more…]
Momentage: A Community for the New Creatives
When we all saw the awesome new idea of Instagram hitting the scene like it did a few years ago, it has always been hard to imagine someone creating something to rival it. While some have ripped off the idea, designed it somewhat differently, and slapped a new name on it, feeling like they've added to the conversation, in reality, they may be missing the point. They're just repeating the person who spoke before them. This is not the case with San Francisco based startup Momentage. Momentage is a community for the new creatives. [Read more…]

Fun App 'Seene' Covertly Primes You For The 3D Revolution
The current race to develop 3D technology is a little like the race to invent color television after an era of black and white. Our media is on the brink of coming full-circle, back into the third dimension after being trapped in a flat virtual world since 3D movies went out in the 60s. New 3D tech is being announced daily in the form of printers, scanners, TVs, glasses… what's next? With every revolutionary innovation comes a beautifully pointless product (like Snapchat to temporary content). These trends can be 'stupid' on the surface but they can also function to assimilate foreign ideas into mainstream culture, paving the way for world changing tools. One such tool in the 3D tech world is a pointlessly-revolutionary app called Seene. [Read more…]
Crazy About Wine on Vine
Practicing my new show – #Vine #wine #alpha #vinelibraryTV vine.co/v/bJqTv90Hj3K
— Gary Vaynerchuk (@garyvee) January 27, 2013
With Twitter's newest app Vine, rather than seeing an Instagram snapshot of everything your friends eat or drink, you can watch a looping six second video of it! To keep up with the world's declining attention spans, users must select just 6 seconds of footage to capture a moment. Surprisingly the videos can be very entertaining, especially since you can watch them as they are posted, in real-time, on vinepeek.com. It's as if people around the world have their own 6 second reality show and you can choose which ones to tune into on Twitter. [Read more…]

As Lear, Kieran Connolly gets better as the play goes on. In Acts 1 through 3 he's too much the high-powered CEO type. Only in the mad scenes of Acts 4 and 5 does he finally calm down and find the real center of the character. His death scene, holding the expired Cordelia, is heartbreaking.
The only real problem with Connolly's performance is his propensity for delivering dialogue drenched with showers of spittle. At times, huge ropes of drool dangle from his beard. If your tickets are in the first two rows, wear a raincoat or you'll get wetter than the crowd at a Gallagher concert.
This may be the first Lear in 400 years to produce his own precipitation during the hurricane scene.

I work primarily from a strengths based perspective. Instead of looking focusing on the problems or "illness" that people have, I work to increase their coping and build on their strengths. I believe that anyone can get better if they want to. Most of the time clients are stronger than they think that they are - they only need strategies, tools, and encouragement to achieve their goals. I have worked successfully with people who struggle with a variety of concerns from dating to heroin addictions, eating disorders to career concerns. By working to connect the dots from past patters to future goals, we are able to see tangible results over time.

Pope Francis set aside his schedule Wednesday to meet briefly with 19 inmates from prisons in Pisa and the island of Pianosa, greeting each one individually and blessing them.
According to ANSA, the secretary for the Synod of Bishops, Archbishop Lorenzo Baldisseri, had organized the inmates' visit to the Vatican and was celebrating Mass for them at the Vatican Grottos when the Pope learned of their arrival and decided to invited them to his residence.
He spent a few minutes greeting them at St. Martha's Residence, where he lives at the Vatican, before going to St. Peter's Square for the Wednesday General Audience.
"It was a truly beautiful and moving encounter. The Pope wanted to greet and bless each one of them. He encouraged them, and his gesture was one of great spiritual fatherhood," Archbishop Baldisseri said.
Inmates said the 15 minute-long visit was "very beautiful and emotional."
Chaplains from prisons across Italy are taking part in spiritual pilgrimages for inmates to Rome to attend the General Audiences with Pope Francis at St. Peter's Square.

After a two-year delay, the Texas Department of Transportation was renewed Friday under a sunset bill, with a few changes.
The state legislature has been working to reform the agency for the past four years, after a billion-dollar accounting error and public outcry over the Trans-Texas Corridor drew scrutiny.
"I'm always looking at what structure got us into the trouble we were in, which was the Trans-Texas Corridor and kind of a real top-down approach rather than a bottom-up approach," Rep. Lois Kolkhorst, R-Brenham, said.
Nearly 85 amendments were offered up on the bill. Among those accepted was a law that would create stronger rules against the agency attempting to lobby for legislation.
Terri Hall, who has long lobbied against toll roads, said the bill would only support the status quo and allow the agency to continue to draw up debt.
"We are now $31 billion in debt for roads, and then they're going to go sell off our highway infrastructure to all of these foreign companies from the top of the state to the bottom [with] a lot of it backed with public debt as well? So it's public money for private profits. We're looking at unsustainable debt and an unsustainable cost for transportation," she said.
If it passes the Senate, the bill would also allow the agency to appoint an inspector general.

And apparently, the memoir, which chronicles Taubman's rise to financial and business success and equally ignominious fall, including a frank description of his time in prison after the Sotheby's scandal, is such a hot commodity that even one of the evening's hosts couldn't get her hands on a copy. "I haven't read it yet—I can't find one!" laughed Arriana Boardman. "I'm dying to read it but they just keep disappearing."
Among those in attendance were Henry Kissinger, Dominick Dunne, Leonard Lauder, Donald and Melania Trump, Mica Ertegun, Annette and Oscar de la Renta, Jamee Gregory, and the author, who was constantly bathed in the glow of the CBS TV crew doing a documentary on him.

|Shoot to thrill.
The sleek and stylish DSC-TX7 offers a large 3.5" (diag.) touch screen to easily take and review photos. An advanced "Exmor R" CMOS sensor provides stunning low-light images and sweeping panoramic views with iSweep Panorama mode. Plus, enjoy 1920x1080 AVCHD video recording and playback.
Burn HD Movies to DVD
Shoot beautiful HD movies and then burn them to DVD. By recording in the AVCHD format, you can transfer full 1080i clarity and smooth motion video to disc and play it on a Blu-ray Disc™ player or a PS3™ game system. Create an entire library of your memories in high definition. Movie files are limited to 29 minutes each.
Great Low-light Shots Without a Flash
Sometimes a flash can wash out the scene, making it hard to capture the mood of the moment. For low-light environments, the back-illuminated "Exmor R" CMOS sensor delivers stunning performance and increases sensitivity by 2x to reduce noise. Shots around the campfire never looked better.
Touch 'n' View
No more fussing with tiny buttons. Just tap the large, 3.5" (diag.) touch screen display (230K pixels) to review your shots in vivid color. Thanks to a layer of hardened glass, the display of the DSC-TX7 is twice as durable as that on the DSC-T90. This camera also features TransferJetª technology, which lets you transfer photos to your compatible laptop by simply placing the camera on the laptop's palm rest.
Ultra-wide, 258-degree Panoramic Shots
Sweep Panorama Mode reaches beyond the traditional wide angle lenses to let you capture expansive, breathtaking shots of landscapes or skyscrapers. Just press the shutter and shoot the scene with a sweeping motion. The camera does the rest.
Backlighting Problems Solved
Shooting high-contrast scenes can often lead to washed out backgrounds and details lost in shadow. Backlight Correction HDR helps correct for this by taking two pictures at different settings and processing the best elements of both into a single image. It's perfect for candlelit shots or subjects that are partially in shadow.
Takes 10 Photos in 1 Second
Capture decisive moments—like the ball hitting the bat—with the ability to shoot 10 images in one second at full 10.2 megapixel resolution. And by employing a mechanical shutter, distortion is reduced when continuously shooting moving subjects. This feature is ideal for capturing a unique sequence of images.

Australia doesn't even celebrate Halloween, but that didn't stop Queen Bey and her crew from whipping up some costumes while on tour. Beyoncé dressed as an angel, but a kinda devilish one. She seems to be enjoying that ass grab from a severed zombie hand a bit too much.
But enough about Bey, though — what did Blue Ivy wear as a costume? [Idolator]

The Mantra: ----------- AUM bhuurbhuvaH svaH AUM tat.h saviturvareNyaM bhargo devasya dhiimahi dhiyo yo naH prachodayAt Summary of the Mantra: ---------------------- O God, Thou art the Giver of Life, the Remover of pains and sorrows, the Bestower of happiness O Creator of the Universe, may we receive Thy Supreme Sin destroying light, May Thou guide our intellect in the right direction. Meaning of each letter in mantra: --------------------------------- Aum Brahma or Almighty God bhuuH embodiment of vital spiritual energy (pran) bhuvaH destroyer of sufferings swaH embodiment of happiness tat.h that savituH bright, luminous like sun vareNyaM best, choicest bhargo destroyer of sins devasya divine dhiimahi may imbibe dhiyo intellect yo who naH our prachodayaata may inspire The Meaning of Gayatri Mantra: ------------------------------ Rishis have selected the words of various Mantras and arranged them in such a way that they, not only convey some meaning but their utterance also creates specific power. Gayatri is a Mantra which inspires righteous wisdom. Its meaning is that the Almighty God may illuminate our intellect which may lead us to righteous path. This is most important teaching. All the problems of a person are solved if he/she is endowed with the gift of righteous wisdom. Having endowed with far-sighted wisdom, a man is neither entangled in calamity nor does he tread a wrong path. A wise man finds solution of all outstanding problems. Only those persons find difficulty who do not know thinking correctly and take wrong steps on account of foolishness. The worship of Gayatri Mantra removes this deficiency. The teachings of and the powers incorporated in Gayatri Mantra fullfil this purpose. Righteous wisdom starts emerging no sooner Jap(recitation) of this Mantra is performed. This meaning is obtained from the book "The Great Science and Philosophy of Gayatri" by Shree Ram Sharma Acharaya, Shanti Kunj Hardwaar. ===============================================================================
A simple search on the internet will give hundreds of sites giving explanation on Gayatri mantra. The following sites are listed only for quick information, without any particular preference or followings of spiritual/religious groups.

Dear Editor:
As I honored Veterans Day, I reminded myself to also commemorate the original Armistice Day. It is also known as Remembrance Day and, by an act of Congress, is "a day dedicated to the cause of world peace." I will take the traditional two minutes of silence "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" to honor and remember all those who bring an end to war and forge lasting and just peace.

U.S. Permanent Residency Information
U.S. Permanent Residency
An overview of the U.S. Permanent Residency sponsorship process at UGA can be found here.
For additional information on the Permanent Residency process, and the filing category options, please see the PowerPoint presentation here: LPR Presentation
Any request for permanent residency is based on a permanent, full time employment commitment by the university, and will require assistance by departmental staff and the expenditure of funds to pay required ISSIS and government filing fees, and possibly advertisement and recruitment costs, depending on the category of sponsorship.
Three Possible Paths to PR:
The three sponsorship paths that are available to permanent international employees at UGA are:
EB-1 Outstanding Professor/Researcher
This category is available for individuals with a long record or publication, research, conference participation and recognition by other experts in the field. The application must show evidence that these individuals are among the top few percent within thier field, world-wide. Applications are filed directly with USCIS, and no advertisement or recruitment needs to be documented.
- The individual have some percentile of classroom teaching responsibilities.
- The advertisement for the position must have appeared in a national journal (online OR print). If an online ad is used, we must be able to prove:
- The electronic or web-based journal's job listings must be accessible to the public without payment of subscription and/or membership charges;
- It must be posted for at least 30 calendar days on the journal's website, and we must have webpage screen shots showing the start and end dates.
- The application must be submitted to the Department of Labor WITHIN 18 months of the DATE OF JOB OFFER.
This category is problematic, as we cannot simply prove that our candidate is the best qualified person -- but rather, that there were no *minimally* qualified U.S. workers.
Choice of Appropriate Category:
ISSIS staff will decide on which category is most appropriate. Regardless of which category, the international employee is responsible for the final stage of the process which is called "adjustment of status", and it is the employee's personal application for the "green card". UGA in general, and the ISSIS office in particular, cannot be responsible for any part of the adjustment of status application, as it is a personal application, and not an employer application. More general information on adjustment of status can be found here:

I don't regret it at all. Playing this series is an experience, for those of us too young to have fought in the war. And it's an experience I would recommend to everyone.
The graphics are so stunning, you really feel immersed in the game. The audio as usual can give you nightmares of bullets whizzing by your ears.

This version, very similar to the Xbox 360 version gives you slightly more game play, but still delivers comparable graphics. The first thing you will notice about Call of Duty 3 is the game play scenarios presented to you. You are part of a squad, in which you are instructed to do certain tasks. Most of them combat related, but the game seems to revolve around your actions, rather than your AI comrades.
If you are into WWII games, and loves first person shooters, the online play, story and over presentation will be a sure win.
I recommend this for rental.

The on line mode is great except for a few flaws. It fits my style of playing as a run and gun type of game but also fits other styles. A major flaw in my opinion is a lack of ranking. You get promoted by doing various things but it doesn't stay with you once the match is over. I think this is something they will add soon. And the other major flaw is not enough people are playing it. Their is usually only 1 or 2 games full of 24 players and the others have various amounts usually below 15. Overall I feel it's the best game out for PS3 right now. Defiantly worth buying.

To be specific: The series does an excellent job of pushing you beyond the typical shooter experience into the time/setting/emotion (LOVE DEM "DEATH SCREEN WAR QUOTES" BTW)! & characters (whom play a much more significant role in this version and is well executed). The missions are packed in variety and will ask a lot of you...
Sometimes too much: If you're not feeling the ~(above) or into shooters - the daunting amount of enemies and challenge will not feel accommodating to most gamers. Fortunately, you just deal with it 'cus thats just war baby! That said: More testing was certainly necessary, as I've encountered various problems..
My first concern especially for the less hardcore is the constant threat of "Respawning" Nazis. Worry not, to the contrary this doesn't always happen, yet the mere threat or knowledge of it even being a threat really pulls you out of the realism into unrealistic actions. Given, it is often the fault of the player not advancing, objective ect - yet, an enemy is an enemy - until you learn its a respawning enemy! (not worth the bullet in his head)
Speaking of wasting ammo: I ran into multiple invinceable nazis and other problems that seem to be caused by not doing exactly as expected or those objectives like a good boy.
Finally, the graphics are so amazing there are some FPS issues, but to the PS3's credit they are certainly the code and only happen when they really shouldn't.
Don't let my notes scare you away from this helluva rental: I beat it in 2 days yet the hard difficulty and multiplayer are making this a keeper! Unfortunately the game is perspectively doomed to focus on some far lesser known battles than others in the genre, yet intriguing.
Publicly 9++Recommended yet personally {8+}

Other than those problems the game was alright and multiplayer was was better.
I think COD2 was better though they downgraded on this one I think.

The on-line portion is ok. Great graphics again, but thats it.
One thing I really did not like was the boundaries of the game. If you wanted to flank the germans, sometimes you went out of boundaries and died. There was no notice, just dead.

Sloppiest Port I've Ever Played

There are so many things wrong with this game that I don't even know where to start. I'll just list some of the major annoyances.
First, the cut scenes, which you can't skip can go on for 5 minutes. Ok, so you sit through those once. However, say you save the game and quit even after getting quite a few checkpoints into that current level. Once you load that game, you have to sit through the same old cutscene once again. You can't skip it, and most of the time you are well beyond the area that the cut scene is even referencing.
Getting stuck. I've been stuck not once, not twice, but literally half a dozen times. I've been stuck behind rocks, stuck at a fence, stuck at a crate, stuck on top of a crate, stuck by a vehicle, and stuck at a bridge while in the jeep. On most of the occasions I had to restart, I couldn't get myself free. That is inexcusable for a game of this calibur.
Glitches and bugs. I don't know how many times I've seen other characters appear and disappear, speed up, slide across the screen and mostly just get in your way.
The sound. It would be nice if the surround sound actually came out of the speakers it is supposed to. This is even during cut scenes where they have complete control on where the character is looking and they can't get it right. Again, poor programing.
The graphics, glitches, poor animation, and nothing new that I haven't seen on the original Xbox or the PC. Guess that is why they only took less than a year to make #3.
The game itself is very typical of WWII games. No new territory here, so if you have played the originals or any others such as MoH, save youself the time, pass.
Good accion game

The game looks great but its really not Flashy very bland to me game controls are clunky.
The game to me is boring to me.
I played for and hour after getting it in the mail but that's all.
The on line gaming stunk it was wak.
resistance Fall of man is so much more fun to play and is more suspenseful and the online gaming is reliable. There is always a match available and its fun and fast paced and brightly lit with beautiful backgrounds. Fall of duty is bland and generic to me. Skip this one and go to Resistance or try both and you will write a post like me.

Call of Duty's Black Sheep

Another thing is that this was the first Call of Duty from the main series to not be on the PC. There were many bugs and glitches in the game as well, where you could be hiding behind cover and still take a load of damage or your team mates could push you out of cover, leaving you wide open (which could seriously $%#& you off if you were going for a play-through on Veteran difficulty).
The controls also seem awkward compared to the past and future games. You have a grenade cook timer around your grenade in this game which isn't in any of the others, and if I can remember correctly, picking up a thrown enemy grenade was also awkward.
One last issue with the campaign are the awful checkpoints that it gives you. You could do so much work at one point, suddenly die from whatever it was that killed you (most likely a glitch causing you to get caught in the enemy fire) and be sent back and lose 30 minutes of your hard work picking off enemies and trying to stay alive.
However, the story mode was pretty compelling and nice, and had some great character development, which I think is a plus. The game did that part better than it's predecessors.
I'd recommend this game only if you're into Call of Duty and would want to try a gem in the series, otherwise it wouldn't hurt to pass this one by as it's considered to be a load of $%#&.
Probably more fun in 2006

Graphics: For it's time I imagine this was an excellent title for the PS3... obviously it does show it's age as I am playing it 5 years later but it does hold up well. Minor screen tearing and shakiness can be slightly annoying at times but nothing too distracting.
Gameplay: Easy to learn, and surprisingly easy to master... I was sniping heads all over the battlefield in no time with little difficulty. The targeting gives some assist which without it I'd probably have given up long ago. My only problems in this department is the AI is very poor. The enemies will stand around long enough for you to run up to them and just bludgeon them to death in most cases... even in major conflicts I can just run all over the battlefield like an idiot without dying. The allied AI is equally as bad... for the most part they do create extra targets to allow you a little time to run from point A to point B but when your set up somewhere and trying to retaliate, they often get in your way unexpected. Unfortunately the game makes the mistake of allowing friendly fire which will end your game abruptly. This is very irritating.
Sound: Awesome, sounds like fireworks everywhere. The guns could use a bit more polish... but I imagine with surround sound this would be an extremely intense experience.
Replay: As all CoD duty games the real fun lies in multiplayer... I'm personally not into it because I'm not very good so I never got around to checking it out.
Load times: Quick.
Overall, not a bad experience. Rent... but save your money for MW3.
A Call of Duty that differs from the later ones
posted by Raziel111 (LINDSAY, CA) Jun 4, 2011
Member since Aug 2010
Graphics: Definetly outdated now, especially compared to later games in the series, but the graphics aren't bad, although the build and body shape of the soldiers looks a little funny to me for some reason.
Sound: The music in itself is no way memorable, but when the music is used in the correct timing, people will remember the heoric mood it helps give off. Voice overs are done well enough, but there's nothing special to report on besides PVt. Huxley's western hick voice.
Playabillity: The 1st person shooting action is definetly solid but it does feel a little shaky compared to other shooters. The one shot guns are definetly the most deadly but while some machine guns are deadly and fun to have in your grasp, a good chunk of them are very hard to aim with, and lock on doesn't help (especially with the Thompson). Throwing a grenade back is a lot easier, even than the later games. Plus, the tanks are fairly easy to control making them a fun level. Plus, theres a lot of button sequences, included in planting a bomb, going hand to hand combat with a german soldier out of bullets, and a few other random things. I would recommend disabling the tilt for the controller though, as it's practically useless.
Entertainment: Playing as four different characters keeps the story interesting, and the gunplay is not just fun, but addicting. I could imagine playing this whole thing through and through without stopping.
I would recommend this game to any Call of Duty and 1st person shooter fans. COD 3 is a good addition to it's series.

CALIVER, a firearm used in the 16th century. The word is an English corruption of "calibre," and arises from the "arquebus of calibre," that is, of standard bore, which replaced the older arquebus. "Caliver," therefore, is practically synonymous with "arquebus." The heavier musket, fired from a rest, replaced the caliver or arquebus towards the close of the century.

Willa Cather came to Nebraska from Virginia in 1883 when she was nine years old. The few years that she lived in Red Cloud, Nebraska would become for her the most transformative and informative years of her life. In a personal interview, Cather said: "I think that most of the basic material a writer works with is acquired before the age of fifteen. That's the important period: when one's not writing. Those years determine whether one's work will be poor and thin or rich and fine." Upon entering this living memorial, fans of Cather walk into her world, and begin to understand the makings of her artistry.

The Magazine Turns to Kickstarter to Fund A Collection of Stories
We've already discussed how the media is increasingly turning to crowdfunding as a source of financing. The Magazine, an all-digital pub focused on non-fiction reporting and essays (about a variety of geeky topics), is the latest outlet to hop on the crowdfunding bandwagon.
The editors decided to start a Kickstarter campaign to raise money for a print and eBook featuring a selection of writing from their first year. As of this writing, the campaign has earned $31,015 and they have nine days to go to reach their goal of $48,000.
10,000 Words spoke with executive editor Glenn Fleishman (via email) about his reasons for using Kickstarter: "We had a lot of options at our disposal, including soliciting pre-orders directly over whatever period of time we chose until we reached a set amount," Fleishman said. "Without a call to action, however, it's hard to get people to pull the trigger unless you're very popular and have something timely as well as compelling. We felt that crowdfunding would let us show our cards: We need to raise this much to pay everyone involved and produce a good-looking book." Read more

Relay For Life Family Gets ABC Home Makeover
Article date: January 23, 2010
On Sunday, January 31, at 8 p.m. EST, set your dial to ABC and gather with your local Relay For Life team, committee, or community to watch colon cancer survivor and Relay participant Tricia Creasey and her family on a special episode of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition."
Tricia, a stage III colon cancer survivor and teacher, and husband, William, bought a "fixer-upper" in Lexington, N.C., prior to Tricia's diagnosis. Her medical bills prevented them from making necessary renovations. Three fellow teachers nominated the Creaseys for the home makeover on ABC's popular reality show.
Relay volunteers in North Carolina put together a special Relay For Life event while the Creaseys' new home was being built. To celebrate the airing of this special episode, Relay participants are organizing "watch parties" in neighborhoods across the country.

As 'fiscal cliff' looms, voter angst is palpable
HOOKSETT, N.H. (AP) — Five hundred miles from Washington, the lunch crowd at Robie's Country Store and Deli is filled with angst over America's elected leaders and their latest struggle to prevent a fiscal crisis.
"I don't know if I know all the ins and outs," says Kimberlee Roux of nearby Manchester as she waits for her lunch order at the popular New Hampshire outpost. "But I think this one's more serious than the others."

At a GlanceTo work together,physicians, finance leaders, and other executives need:
The ability of physicians, finance leaders, and operations leaders to work together is increasingly critical—and requires a commitment on all sides to overcome differences in training, experience, and perspective.
Clinical integration, bundled payments, pay for performance, referral management, and other challenges facing the healthcare industry will require relationships that go beyond simply coordinating activities for personal gain. Finance leaders, physicians, and operations leaders will need to cooperate, which often means subordinating personal agendas to achieve something for the greater good. By doing so, these stakeholders can better adapt to changes driven by healthcare reform, realize synergies, and achieve a sustainable competitive advantage.
Physicians are the consummate "knowledge workers," as described by management theorist Peter Drucker. In other words, their main capital is their knowledge and skills. As knowledge workers, physicians are trained to make judgments and decisions independently. Rarely do they have time to ponder alternatives. Instead, they assess individual circumstances and take remedial action—which often produces immediate results. Physicians are also highly mobile—able to take their services wherever they choose. They often require technical tools, which are useless without their knowledge and experience. All of these factors make it difficult for other physicians, as well as finance and operations leaders, to supervise physicians—even in employment settings.
Although compensation is important to many physicians, their loyalty is not won by a paycheck. Instead, these professionals thrive on opportunities to use their knowledge and skills. Ultimately, physicians, like other knowledge workers, decide how much energy they will commit to their practice, which determines how much their efforts will yield (Drucker, P., Peter Drucker on the Profession of Management, Boston: Harvard Business School Publishing, 1998).
As knowledge workers, physicians are process focused, approaching their work one patient at a time—which is exactly how we want them to be when we are "that patient."
Healthcare executives come from a variety of backgrounds, training, and circumstances. Some are experts in areas such as accounting, finance, human resources, and IT. Others are line managers who have worked their way up through the ranks, with ever-increasing responsibility for direct operations. These are the implementers who achieve success by being on time and within budget.
Still other executives are trained as clinical professionals who pursue advanced degrees or experience in organizational administration. As these leaders rise through the ranks, they often become more strategic in their thinking—less focused on the immediate and more focused on long-term direction and outcomes.
Successful finance leaders and other hospital executives learn to anticipate and make risk-based decisions. Their targets may be very short term (such as quarterly financial results), or they may be much more strategic in nature. These leaders are trained to consider alternatives carefully in light of internal and external circumstances. They may take days, weeks, or longer to weigh their options before zeroing in on a strategy—the results of which may not be apparent for months or even years. These executives often assume the role of "boss" rather than that of professional peer.
In the future, successful integrated delivery systems (IDSs) will not be solely managed by physicians or administrative executives. Functional integration (more than integration in name only) will require the very best thinking and cooperation of clinical, operational, and finance experts, working in partnership to maintain and enhance clinical quality, service quality, productivity, operational sustainability, and financial viability—all this in an era of decreasing payment, increasing regulation and costs, and greater demand from an aging population. Even in settings in which physicians are employed by hospitals, the board-appointed fiduciary—the legal "boss"—should be wise enough to engage his or her employed physicians as partners in strategy development and implementation oversight.
The traditional volunteer medical staff model is based on coordination of personal agendas and objectives rather than on cooperation, which often requires the subordination of some personal preferences or objectives to achieve synergy. The future will demand even greater cooperation to achieve a compelling vision shared by all who participate—not just the hospital or the subspecialists or the primary care physicians—for the benefit of patients and communities served.
In the years to come, most hospitals will depend on both employed and private practice physicians. Although elected medical staff leadership hasn't always been strong in some organizations, IDSs will need effective physician leaders. Ideally, these leaders will represent a mix of independent and employed physicians.
So how can hospitals and health systems put this vision into action? One step is to change medical staff bylaws so they reflect the increased coordination—and accountability—that the new models demand. The strength of medical executive committees and their ability to hold employed and independent physicians accountable for clinical quality, service quality, and their influence on financial performance will be an essential factor in the success of functionally integrated organizations.
As already mentioned, successfully working together requires a shared vision that is compelling enough to promote cooperation. That vision cannot be the hospital's vision alone. It should be comprehensive enough to engage primary care physicians and subspecialty physicians.
On occasion, finance leaders and other hospital executives will complain about physicians not buying into "our" vision. But the question is, "Whose vision?" A vision that includes and engages the majority of affiliated physicians—employed or otherwise—as well as finance and other hospital leaders, support staff, and even communities defines what can be accomplished as a team for the greater good. The more compelling the vision, the easier it is to overcome the inevitable disagreements over tactics that are often due to differences in training, experience, and perspective.
Working together also requires one or more forums to discuss, cooperate, and even compromise on tactics that may help us achieve the shared vision.
An effective approach used in some organizations is a medical executive committee that includes both independent and employed physician leaders. Some hospitals that employ physicians use an operations council model as a forum to engage these physicians, as well as executives and management, at the individual practice sites and across hospital-owned practice networks. In this model, employed physicians are engaged with a skilled operations manager in each individual practice to focus on performance improvement using a site-specific action plan. Employed physician leaders are selected to partner with the hospital's CEO, CFO, and chief medical officer to develop a strategy for all hospital-owned practices in the integrated network.
Although most failed, a few physician-hospital organizations have provided effective forums to promote integrated strategy and tactics, largely as a result of effective physician and hospital leadership. Regardless of the model, the partnership forum should meet frequently to develop trust, promote effective dialogue, make principled decisions, and hold itself and its members accountable for the results of those decisions.
Building a "culture of accountability" is a critical component of working together. Such a culture goes beyond participants feeling responsible. They expect to be and are, in fact, held accountable for working together to overcome challenges and to achieve measurable outcomes for the benefit of those they serve. As an organization becomes increasingly integrated around a compelling vision, physicians, executives, managers, and support staff members are increasingly likely to jump on the train and help drive increased momentum.
There may be a few, however, who remain uncomfortable with the direction, tactics, or pace of change. Some may do the right thing and leave the organization to pursue their own vision. A few may become openly disruptive, while others may quietly sabotage progress, determined to head south on a northbound train.
Culling membership is frequently the first test of functional integration. The distraction caused by even one disrupter can be devastating in terms of political, emotional, and financial energy. Mustering the organizational will to remove those who are not willing to join, however, is essential to maintain momentum. Removing disrupters—even top-producing physicians—demonstrates the organization's commitment to pursue its compelling vision.
Leadership development is a final essential element driving how finance and operations leaders and physicians can work together toward a shared vision.
Leadership is a function of individual personality, personal interest, training, and skill. Advanced business degrees do not guarantee one's ability to lead, nor does a medical degree. As with any essential skill, ongoing training and practice are both critical elements for leadership development. Functionally integrated organizations provide ongoing training opportunities to both executive and physician leaders, particularly in the areas of sustainable strategy, performance evaluation, performance improvement, communication, accountability, and other critical leadership skills. Through leadership development, physician and hospital executives can develop a common language, which is essential for problem solving.
Given the significant trends driving change in the healthcare landscape, only those organizations that can work together to capture market share in primary care practices and, by extension, in select subspecialties will generate the capital necessary to support healthcare delivery in their communities.
The ability to work together is, and will remain, the hallmark of the constituents of successful IDSs. Wise physician, finance, and operations stakeholders see the value of partnership-led organizations where diversity in training, experience, and perspectives are highly valued. Their goal is to create a shared vision that is compelling enough to engage their peers to cooperate in its achievement. They develop forums to identify implementation tactics to achieve their vision. They create a culture of accountability as a requirement for membership in their IDS. And they continually develop the leadership talent that will ensure the sustainability of the work they accomplish together.
