Why Integrators Get Firedby Brian Rhodes, IPVM posted on Jul 15, 2012
While many integrators like to think of themselves as irreplaceable to their customers, new IPVM end user survey results show this is not the case. What circumstances prompt an end user to finally say "enough is enough!" and run off an integrator? In this note, we examine the top 3 reasons.
3 Key Reasons
Responses from around the world shared consistent reasons indicating end users share similar problems. The most common reasons end users provided for firing Integrators are:
- Poor Service: Fired integrators simply do not show up in a timely fashion, do not communicate their plans, and are not dependable
- Lack of Knowledge: Fired integrators do not understand how to install, maintain, or service the systems they are selling
- Too Expensive/Lack Value: The end user does not perceive the integrator provides enough value as a service provider to justify their invoices
Poor Service
Poor service was the most common cause for getting fired by a clear margin:
- "Poor service. Pricing did not influence our decision."
- "We replaced our integrator a few years ago because of very poor communication and response times. We were frequently having difficulties reaching anyone with the company, and it could take several days to get a technician on site for work to be done."
- "We follow strict project management policies and procedures. Many integrators are not accustomed to generating detailed project plans and adhering to them."
- "This subject I could write a book about. Performance is always the reason, or lack of it."
- "horrible customer service"
- "We are in the process of parting ways with an integrator at this time. We have found them to be less than dependable especially when it comes to time sensitive issues. They have recently lost the sales person that serviced us. This was a very knowledgable person and made some of their other shortcomings bearable, but without him, it is not worth the hassle. We are striving to become more self sufficient in both access control and surveillance."
- "We used to work with a Lenel integrator that also began our installation of IP cameras. They became very slow to respond, often forgot to show up or order parts, and would drop off work order forms for me to sign when I didn't even know what they accomplished. I tried several times in talking with managers to improve the relationship, but it ended up seeming that they didn't care that we just spent 200K with them, or that they are incredibly unorganized and can't write anything down. Therefore, we replaced them with someone else."
- "Poor performance on their part. Even after having a "camera down" clause that stipulated we would be refunded the recurring cost of a non-functioning camera for each day it was down past five days written into our contract we still had instances where a camera would be down for weeks at a time. It was ridiculous."
- "Service was the major issue that ended up causing the integrator to be replaced. The secondary issue was the expertise of the technicians assigned to service my account. Their lack of expertise directly affected the level of service they could provide."
Fortunately for integrators, solving this problem does not require an MBA or business coach. It does require emphasizing the basics of service throughout an organization. Integrators should adjust operations based on the goals of clear, concise communication, prompt customer followup, and being mindful that 'customer problems' are also 'my problems' no matter how insignificant they appear.
Lack of Knowledge
This common complaint is amplified as systems become more advanced. Integrators continuously need to learn new technology and must keep pace with customer's requests for changes. When the field staff, designers, and installer do not stay current, it leads to problems:
- "Expertise level did not turn out to be what was expected."
- "Unable to support the products they installed."
- "Incompetence, lack of knowledge."
- "When we made the leap from analog to IP, the existing integrator wasn't ready to move with us. Despite an RFP detailing the need to provide an IP solution, they stuck with analog DVRs so they didn't even make it into the final bid process."
- "They did not listen to our concerns and after sending us the same service technician to repair the same problem 3 months in a row I brought in another integrator and they fixed the problem in one visit, I had paid over $5000 in service fees (Off Maintenance agreement they said). Turns out that after all of that it was a .25 cent battery on the subpanels that was causing the problem. I would like to think that they did not rip us off and that the service tech was just ignorant of the system and lacking training. But either way it is bad business and I fired the integrator."
- "Competency in the IP camera space"
- "Their lack of expertise directly affected the level of service they could provide."
To help integrators stay current, we have developed the IP Video 101 Training Course, comprehensiveTraining section and our upcoming IPVM University online course.
Because integrators are forced to reconcile vast amounts of manufacturer-specific training and information, understanding the equipment and systems involved require a deep commitment. However, this result clearly expresses that integrators who chose to avoid this reality pay a big price.
Too Expensive/Lack Value
The last theme was less clearly stated and often accompanied some other complaint. However, a clear rationale in firing integrators was they simply are too costly for the value they bring to the table:
- "Reason one: Cost, Reason Two: Effectiveness:, Reason Three: Efficiencies"
- "The integrator provided no value, could not answer questions, and only obscured communication between us and the manufacturer."
- "When I was promoted to the department manager, I learned very quickly that the integrator that we had been using did not have our best interest at heart. His business practices were bordering on dishonest. An example of this was that we were being severely overcharged per diem."
- "We had a very good partnership with a large integrator. The integrator lost interest in us when we were not spending money on new systems every year. The Service level from the integrator and the people they sent over to us kept degrading."
- "Primary reasons are lack of documentation and *total* cost."
- "Too many integrators sell equipment that is not needed."
- "Unwilling to extend vendor discounts offered to us."
- "System failed and integrator refused to send anyone out until we resolved a MINOR billing problem."
Key Takeaways
Integrators focused on providing strong service with high competence would have less difficulty justifying their billing rates. In this case, even when an integrator is not 'the cheapest' provider, if the prove to be the 'most valued' customers are willing to pay. However, integrators who view service calls as an expense and who are inefficient when servicing systems due to lack of training often find themselves labeled as 'too expensive' and ready to be fired.

WeAreSC.com, ESPN.comUSC recruits Nico Falah (left) and Khaliel Rodgers both think the Trojans can still win the national championship.The USC Trojans have reached the midway point of their season and, though a perfect record is no longer possible, the common reaction among Class of 2013 commits is positive. There's overwhelming optimism within the recruiting class that the Trojans will finish the year strong, win the Pac-12 and have the opportunity to compete for the BCS crown.
The consensus among recruits is that the Trojans have struggled to maintain consistent offensive play, while the defense has carried the squad to its 5-1 start. USC ranks 25th nationally in total defense (331.5 yards per game), 27th in scoring defense (18.5 points), 48th in scoring offense (32.33 points) and 57th in total offense (415.17 yards).

Columbus signs James Wisniewski to six-year, $33 million deal
Jul 1, 2011, 11:39 AM EDT
The Blue Jackets aren't here to mess around this offseason. After acquiring Jeff Carter from Philadelphia, they dealt for the rights to Montreal defenseman James Wisniewski to see if they could lock down the power play useful blue liner. Today, the Jackets and GM Scott Howson were able nail down a monster deal for the six year NHL veteran signing him to a six-year, $33 million deal.
Wisniewski's deal comes in at a cap hit of $5.5 million per year for the next six years and for a guy who had his first real offensive breakout season last year scoring ten goals and adding 41 assists, he's cashing in when the market was ripest for him. With solid free agent defensive choices being minimal on the open market, Wisniewski's stock was at its highest. The Blue Jackets knew this right away and set their sights on him acquiring his rights to negotiate with him. It paid off for Columbus and it has more than paid off now for Wisniewski as he's one of the best paid blue liners in the league.
While that might be upsetting for some fans who might not believe he's worth the money, the market dictates the price and for Wisniewski it works out great. Known for his physical game as well as his offensive touch as well, he'll be an immediate asset for the Blue Jackets on the power play. Teamed up with Carter and Rick Nash the Jackets will look to improve their numbers on the man advantage in a big way. Last season the Jackets had the second worst power play in the NHL scoring at a 14% rate.
The pressure will now be on in a big way for the Blue Jackets. After years of mediocre play they're going to have to find a way to make their mark in the Central Division this year and cut into Detroit and Chicago's winning ways as well as dealing with a feisty Nashville team. With the two additions they've made, things are getting better faster for Columbus. They'll have to hope coach Scott Arniel can help put things together in a big way to turn things around for the better in Ohio.

Great for home, dorm, or small space. Very well made. Lower feature rack can store. Printer will need to not be too large for leg room. Like a giant all in one may be to large. It is a good size space for other storage. One thing about Overstock is quality. Great customer service too. Used them for over 10 years now. :-) one of the best online retailers.
I live in a small studio and needed a desk that could do double duty. This holds my printer and small record player on bottom shelf. Perfect for my laptop and studies for school. Not sure how this would work for a more full sized computer. A bit tedious to put together but I did it!!
I used it in my bedroom as a small office desk. It really match our room. The design is more contemporary so it fits our other Ikea furniture. The design is very useful, too. Price is very reasonable!
Love this computer desk. Its compact and sturdy. It has just enough room for my 20" HP and HP printer. It sits perfectly in the corner. The cherry wood is beautiful. It is slighter darker than pictured.
As a college student I needed something nice, sturdy, and elbow length. I like to have enough space on my desk to be handling 4 tasks at once and this was perfect! I can have my laptop, books, notebooks, and papers everywhere while I can have my desk organizers and decorations and everything else here too. I love the 3 parts to it and the instructions to assemble are fairly easy.. takes a bit of thinking but I got it up and going pretty swiftly. Great look and finish, sleek and sturdy. Great buy for the price I paid. :)
Needed a desk. Found one for under ** clams! Shipped really fast. Assembly was a little rocky but I blame myself for it. Now I got a cool new desk!

Geonomics is …
a new policy from a new perspective. Once your worldview shifts — so that vacant city lots are no longer invisible — then epiphany. "Of course! Why didn't I see it before?" Once you do see the emptiness and what damage it does, how can you ever go back to the old paradigm?
a discipline that, compared to economics, is as obscure as Warren Buffett's investment strategy, compared to conventional investment theory, about which Buffett said, "You couldn't advance in a finance department in this country unless you taught that the world was flat." (The New York Times, Oct 29). The writer wondered, "But why? If it works, why don't more investors use it?" Good question. Geonomics works, too. Every place that has used it has prospered while conserving resources. Yet it remains off the radar of many wanna-be reformers. Gradually, tho', that's changing. More are becoming aware of what geonomics studies – all the money we spend on the nature we use. Geonomics (1) as an alternative worldview to the anthropocentric, sees human economies as part of the embracing ecosystem with natural feedback loops seeking balance in both systems. (2) As an alternative to worker vs. investor, it sees our need for sites and resources making those who own land into landlords. (3)As an alternative to economics, it tracks the trillions of "rent" as it drives the "housing" bubble and all other indicators. And (4) as an alternative to left or right, it suggests we not tax ourselves then subsidize our favorites but recover and share society's surplus, paying in land dues and getting back "rent" dividends, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Letting rent go to the wrong pockets wreaks havoc, while redirecting it to everyone would solve our economic ills and the ills downstream from them. People must learn to stop whining so much and feel enough self-esteem to demand a fair share of rent, society's surplus, the commonwealth.
a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heri-tage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a divi-dend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jeffer-son suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.

Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.
one of many words I coined over 20 years ago: geoism, geonomics, geonomy, geocracy, etc – neologisms that later others came up with, too. CNBC once had a Geonomics Show, and Middlebury College has a Geonomics Institute. If "economy" is literally "management of the household", then geonomy is "management of the planet". The kind of management I had in mind is not what CNBC was thinking – top-down. My geonomics is not hands-on, interfering, but hands-off, organic. It'd strive to align policy with natural processes, similar to what holistic healing does in medicine, what organic farming does in agriculture. Geonomics attends to two key components: One, the crucial stuff to track is fat – or profit, especially profits without production, such as rent, or all the money we spend on the nature we use. Society's surplus is the sine qua non for growth, needed to counter death – not merely more, but sustainable development, more from less. Two, the basic process to respect is the feedback loop. These let nature maintain balance automatically and could do the same for markets, if we let them. Letting them would turn our economies, now our masters, into a geonomy, our servant, providing us with prosperity, eco-librium (to coin a term) and leisure, time off – a hostile environment for economan but a cradle for a loving and creative humanity.
about the money we spend on the nature we use. It flows torrentially yet invisibly, often submerged in the price of housing, food, fuel, and everything else. Flowing from the many to the few, natural rent distorts prices and rewards unjust and unsustainable choices. Redirected via dues and dividends to flow from each to all, "rent" payments would level the playing field and empower neighbors to shrink their workweek and expand their horizons. Modeled on nature's feedback loops, earlier proposals to redirect rent found favor with Paine, Tolstoy, and Einstein. Wherever tried, to the degree tried, redirecting rent worked. One of today's versions, the green tax shift, spreads out of Europe. Another, the Property Tax Shift, activists can win at the local level, building a world that works right for everyone.
an alternative to conventional land trusts. Just as it seems some functions should not be left to the market – private courts and cops invite corruption (while private mediation is fine) – just so some land should not be left in the market. That said, sacred sites do not make much of a model for treating the vast acreage of land that we need to use. So the usual trust model, which is anti-use and counter-market, can not apply where it's needed most. Trust proponents worry about ownership and control – two very human ambitions – but they're not central. Supposedly, we the people own millions acres – acres that private corporations treat as private fiefdoms – and conversely, the Nature Conservancy owns wilderness the public can some places use as parks. So, the issue is not who owns but who gets the rent – ideally, all of us.
of interest to Dave Lakhani, President Bold Approach (Mar 8) and Matt Ozga (Jan 29): "I write for the Washington Square News, the student run newspaper out of New York University. Geonomics seems like it has great significance, especially in this area. When was geonomics developed, and by whom?" About 1982 I began. Two years later, Chilean Dr Manfred Max-Neef offered the term geonomics for Earth-friendly economics. In the mid-80s, a millionaire founded a Geonomics Institute on Middlebury College campus in Vermont re global trade. In the 1990s, CNBC cablecast a show, Geonomics, on world trade as it benefits world traders. My version of geonomics draws heavily from the American Henry George who wrote Progress & Poverty (1879) and won the mayoralty of New York but was denied his victory by Tammany Hall (1886). He in turn got lots from Brits David Ricardo, Adam Smith, and the French physiocrats of the 1700s. My version differs by focusing not on taxation but on the flow of rents for sites, resources, sinks, and government-granted privileges. Forgoing these trillions, we instead tax and subsidize, making waste cheap and sustainability expensive. To quit distorting price, replace taxes with "land dues" and replace subsidies with a Citizens Dividend. Matt: "This idea of sharing rents sounds, if not explicitly socialist, at least at odds with some capitalist values (only the strong survive & prosper, etc). Is it fair to say that geonomics has some basis in socialist theory?" A closer descriptor would be Christian. Beyond ethics into praxis, Alaska shares oil rent with residents, and they're more libertarian than socialist. While individuals provide labor and capital, no one provides land while society generates its value. Rent is not private property but public property. Sharing Rent is predistribution, sharing it before an elite or state has a chance to get and misspend it, like a public REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) paying dividends to its stakeholders – a perfectly capitalist model. What we should leave untaxed are our sales, salaries, and structures, things we do produce.
suitable for framing by Green Parties. When Greens began in Germany two decades ago, they defined themselves as neither left nor right but in front. Geonomics fits that description. The Green Parties have their Four Pillars; geonomists have four ways to apply them:
- Ecological Wisdom. Want people to use the eco-system wisely? Charge them Rent and, to end corporate license, add surcharges. To minimize these costs, people will use less Earth.
- Nonviolence. Want people to settle disputes nonviolently? Set a good example; don't levy taxes, which rely on the threat of incarceration, to take people's money. Try quid pro quo fees and dues.
- Social Responsibility. Want people to be responsible for their actions? Don't make basic choices for them by subsidizing services, addicting them to a caretaker state. Let people spend shares of social surplus.
- Grassroots Democracy. Better have grassroots prosperity. Remember, political power follows economic. Pay people a Citizens Dividend; to keep it, they'll show up at the polls, public hearings, and conventions.
a way to have everybody pulling on the same end of the rope. Last summer's expansive forest fires shed light on growing class resentment in the West. Old loggers and ranchers rankled at the new urgency to stamp out the blazes that threatened the recent Aspenesque settlers. The newcomers expected working class firemen to make protecting their expensive homes top priority. (Chr Sci Mntr, Spt 7) The tinder for this envy? Rich people moving in bid up the price of land, making it hard to afford by people on the margin. The fault really lies with our system of privatizing land value. If this rising value were collected by land dues and shared by rent dividends – the essence of geonomic policy – who'd complain? The more people move in, the higher the land value, and the fatter the dividend paid to residents. Then people on the margin might go out of their way to invite rich outsiders in.

Hornets may not move Kaman… because of Mike Dunleavy?
Mar 8, 2012, 2:30 PM EDT
This is why the league needs to get out of the business of owning the Hornets fast, things like this get messy.
It has been assumed that one of the guys that would certainly get moved at the trade deadline is Chris Kaman of the Hornets — they took him out of the lineup earlier this season to move him, then re-inserted him to showcase his skills. It's worked, he's looked good and there is growing interest in him.
But wait. Now Mike Dunleavy may not want to trade him.
Why should we care? Because Mike Dunleavy is part of the ownership group in the lead to purchase the Hornets and keep them in New Orleans. And because of that he may have some sway over what the Hornets do at the trade deadline. So reports Hoopsworld.
Sources close to the situation say Dunleavy will be actively involved in running the team when and if the deal closes and that he wants Kaman and Eric Gordon on the roster….
Sources say Dunleavy feels like he can get both of his former players signed to new deals, so it will be interesting to see how this shakes out because Chris Kaman was viewed as someone who would absolutely be moved, now that certainty is not so clear.
There are rumors the Hornets may move Eric Gordon at the deadline, too. They'd be foolish to do that. But the Hornets need to rebuild and if Kaman can bring back picks and young pieces they should pull the trigger. We can debate the merits of that, but allowing a guy from the outside to make trade calls… it just feels weird. In part because it is Dunleavy.
More than anything, the Louisiana legislature needs to vote on the new lease deal for the Hornets (something that could happen next week) and then the league needs to sell the team. The longer they own it, the more messy situations like this one come up.
- hawknuts - Mar 8, 2012 at 2:55 PM
this whole situation is just wrong. plain and simple. the league should have never had anything to do with the team in a player transaction capacity. how many more deals are they going to put their hands on?
Eric Gordon should sign his one season restricted free agency tender and go on to greener pastures.
I feel bad for the fans of N.O because they have to deal with a whole lot of bull that has nothing to do with them and everything to do with financial constraints. I mean you have to go watch the team and support them but its besides the point when everything from the top down is so screwed up that it doesn't matter. this team needs an owner and to not let mike dunleavy anywhere near player transactions or coaching. chain him up in the press box if you have to and put a gag on him too.
- zeedoubleyou - Mar 8, 2012 at 4:02 PM
The fact that Mike Dunleavy thinks the Hornets should keep Kaman is all the more reason to trade him.

Eric Gordon is a stud, not sure why he isn't playing. He has no personality but he can ball for sure..

Rush Plan to Hit the Road Next Spring
To celebrate 40 years of making music with drummer Neil Peart, Rush plan to hit the road next year for a new tour.
To celebrate 40 years of making music with drummer Neil Peart, Rush plan to hit the road next year for a new tour.
Former Styx frontman Dennis DeYoung recently told us that classic rock died in 1979, and even if you dispute his timeline, there's no getting around the decade's hold on fans of the genre.
Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson have dipped into their personal collections in order to give Rush fans a chance to own pieces of the band's history while supporting a great cause.
We all know Alice Cooper loves to spend his downtime on the golf course -- and if this photo is anything to go by, he tends to keep some fairly famous company while he's hitting the links.
A new unboxing trailer has been released for the forthcoming deluxe vinyl reissue of Rush's eponymous debut, now officially titled 'Rush ReDISCovered.'
Hard to believe, but 2014 marks the 40th anniversary of the self-titled debut album from Rush. To celebrate this milestone, 'Rush' is being re-issued on April 15 in a special vinyl deluxe edition box.
With two weeks of voting down and three still to go, Rush, Fleetwood Mac, Black Sabbath and Paul McCartney have taken early leads in various categories of the 2014 Ultimate Classic Rock Awards.
A day before they release 'Clockwork Angels Tour' on home video, Rush will bring their concert document to the big screen. And you have only one chance to see it.
The grunge revolution was in full swing by late 1993, and plenty of established rock acts found it difficult to draw the type of sales or airplay they'd enjoyed during the '80s. The guys in Rush, 25-year vets getting ready to release their 15th studio album at that point, knew they'd be returning to a musical landscape that had changed a great deal since they'd scored a massive hit with 1991's 'Roll the Bones' LP.
Rush have released a trailer for their upcoming live DVD and CD set, 'Clockwork Angels Tour.' The document collects a late-2012 concert from a stop on the band's nearly yearlong tour in support of last year's 'Clockwork Angels' album.
There's nothing like a family-friendly animated movie to help shake off the September doldrums and 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2' performed as expected. Although Sony's big release effortlessly took the number one spot, this weekend had a few other bright spots, namely a handful of independent films doing quite well in more limited release.

I ABSOLUTELY love looking through the selection of cards laughing out loud to myself (or the dog!) There is such a good choice that it's hard to decide which to send!
Particularly good idea to be able to refine your search by gender, occasions etc..
The site is easy to use, so great to be able to personalise everything, and delivery is always quick!
Typed in wrong address once and spotted it too late... that was soon sorted out with a quick and efficient phone call.
I really recommend The Dog's Doodahs to everyone with a good sense of humour!

CU-Boulder stem cell research may point to new methods of mitigating muscle loss
New findings on why skeletal muscle stem cells stop dividing and renewing muscle mass during aging points up a unique therapeutic opportunity for managing muscle-wasting conditions in humans, says a new University of Colorado Boulder study.
According to CU-Boulder Professor Bradley Olwin, the loss of skeletal muscle mass and function as we age can lead to sarcopenia, a debilitating muscle-wasting condition that generally hits the elderly hardest. The new study indicates that altering two particular cell-signaling pathways independently in aged mice enhances muscle stem cell renewal and improves muscle regeneration.
One cell-signaling pathway the team identified, known as p38 MAPK, appears to be a major player in making or breaking the skeletal muscle stem cell, or satellite cell, renewal process in adult mice, said Olwin of the molecular, cellular and developmental biology department. Hyperactivation of the p38 MAPK cell-signaling pathway inhibits the renewal of muscle stem cells in aged mice, perhaps because of cellular stress and inflammatory responses acquired during the aging process.
The researchers knew that obliterating the p38 MAPK pathway in the stem cells of adult mice would block the renewal of satellite cells, said Olwin. But when the team only partially shut down the activity in the cell-signaling pathway by using a specific chemical inhibitor, the adult satellite cells showed significant renewal, he said. "We showed that the level of signaling from this cellular pathway is very important to the renewal of the satellite cells in adult mice, which was a very big surprise," said Olwin.
A paper on the subject appeared online Feb. 16 in the journal Nature Medicine.
One reason the CU-Boulder study is important is that the results could lead to the use of low-dose inhibitors, perhaps anti-inflammatory compounds, to calm the activity in the p38 MAPK cell-signaling pathway in human muscle stem cells, said Olwin.
The CU-Boulder research team also identified a second cell-signaling pathway affecting skeletal muscle renewal – a receptor known as the fibroblast growth factor receptor-1, or FGFR-1. The researchers showed when the FGFR-1 receptor protein was turned on in specially bred lab mice, the renewal of satellite cells increased significantly. "We still don't understand how that particular mechanism works," he said.
Another major finding of the study was that while satellite cells transplanted from young mice to other young mice showed significant renewal for up to two years, those transplanted from old mice to young mice failed. "We found definitively that satellite cells from an aged mouse are not able to maintain the ability to replenish themselves," Olwin said. "This is likely one of the contributors to loss of muscle mass during the aging process of humans."
Co-authors included first author and CU-Boulder postdoctoral researcher Jennifer Bernet, former CU-Boulder graduate student John K. Hall, CU-Boulder undergraduate Thomas Carter, and CU-Boulder postdoctoral researchers Jason Doles and Kathleen Kelly-Tanaka. The National Institutes of Health and the Ellison Medical Foundation funded the study.
Olwin said skeletal muscle function and mass decline with age in humans beginning at roughly age 40. While there are a variety of muscle-wasting diseases -- ranging from muscular dystrophy to Lou Gehrig's disease -- the condition known as sarcopenia can lead to severe muscle loss, frailty and eventual death and is leading to skyrocketing health care costs for the elderly. "If you live long enough, you'll get it," he said.
Olwin and his team worked closely on the research with a team from Stanford University led by Professor Helen Blau, which published a companion paper in the same issue of Nature Medicine. "We shared data with the Stanford team during the entire process and we all were very pleased with the study outcomes," said Olwin. "This is how science should work."

The Long Valley caldera region, located between the Sierra Nevada and the Basin and Range Province in eastern California, encompasses a large volcanic complex whose eruptive history began nearly 4 m.y.a. and continues to the present, with eruptions occurring, on average, every few hundred years. Eruptive activity in the area occurred as recently as 250 years ago with small eruptions from vents on Paoha Island in the middle of Mono Lake and 550–600 years ago from three vents at the southern end of the Inyo volcanic chain in the west moat of Long Valley caldera. The current unrest in the caldera began in 1980 and has included recurring earthquake swarms and uplift of the resurgent dome in the center of the caldera by over 70 cm [Bailey and Hill, 1990]. Long Valley caldera is one of several large calderas around the world that have shown similar signs of magmatic unrest in the last few decades.

Matthew Rhys and Eileen Atkins Sign to Star in 'The Scapegoat'
LONDON -- Matthew Rhys and Eileen Atkins have signed to star in The Scapegoat, a screen adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's 1957 novel.
Rhys, best known for his long-running role in Brothers and Sisters, will star in the movie version penned and to be directed by Charles Sturridge.
BIlled as a psychological thriller, the script details the story of a man who meets his perfect double and takes over his life.
The project marks the debut movie production from Island Pictures, the U.K. film and TV production banner unfurled by Dominic Minghella and Sarah Beardsall.
The movie is due for transmission on ITV1 in 2012, and will be followed by a worldwide theatrical distribution rollout plan to be managed by Content Media Corporation.
ITV and Content Film, Content Television and Digital have provided financial backing for the project.
The movie will be produced by Beardsall and Minghella.
Beardsall, a former high flying casting director whose resume boasts Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Talented Mr Ripleyand TV's Inspector Morse described the project as a "landmark" for Island Pictures.
"This [The Scapegoat] is our calling-card, and a statement of intent - to produce film and television with the highest of ambitions," Beardsall said.
Sturridge said it was a daunting prospect, trying to bring du Maurier's novel to life on the screen after both Alfred Hitchcock and Nic Roeg had previously done adaptations of the writer's work.
"I loved the story from the moment I read it and the extraordinary mix of brilliant characters surrounding these mirror image men," Sturridge said.
