Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
There's classic rock, and then there's 'classic' rock
Roll over Beethoven, John Einarson's spreading some news.
The local pop music historian, author and teacher is collaborating with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra on a new show designed to bridge the gap between classical music and rock 'n' roll.
"I hope people come away with a sense that classical music doesn't stand alone," Einarson says. "It's not an isolated genre; it has permeated a lot of aspects of music. We want to show that rock 'n' roll didn't just draw from blues and folk and country, but from classical, too. A lot of heavy-metal guitarists have studied classical music."
Rock Owes the Classics was developed by Einarson and the WSO's artistic and operations associate James Manishen, focusing on artists that used classical material as the basis for a new song, or were inspired by a piece of work to create something entirely different.
The night will feature eight students from the St. John's-Ravenscourt School Rock Show program playing the rock songs before the symphony kicks in with the original piece of music that inspired it, or vice-versa.
The program starts with the Electric Light Orchestra's version of Roll Over Beethoven and segues into the Chuck Berry standard before the WSO, conducted by Richard Lee, kicks in with Beethoven's Fifth Symphony.
Other works that will be presented include a version of Aram Khachaturian's famous Sabre Dance, which was covered by 1960s Welsh band Love Sculpture, and Eric Carmen's 1975 hit All By Myself, based on the second movement of Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor.
The Beatles, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Deep Purple and even a surprise hip-hop artist are also featured.
"For people into classical music who regularly go, and subscribers, it should be interesting for them to hear the symphonic song they know and the pop song they may or may not know," says Einarson. "We're talking mostly about a boomer crowd, so they should know a lot of it."
The 59-year-old will serve as the host and explain the background of the music and how the pieces are connected. He will even pull out his Les Paul and join the students for a song, but he's not letting on which one.
"It's been 40 years since I played on that stage," he says. "I was playing lead guitar for Fabulous George and the Zodiacs opening for Crowbar around this time in 1971."
Einarson's stint as a host shouldn't come as a surprise, since he is considered an expert on the origins of rock 'n' roll and teaches a music history course at the University of Winnipeg.
He was a regular on the Winnipeg community club scene in the 1960s, hosts the radio show This Time Long Ago Fridays from 7 to 9 p.m. on nostalgia station CJNU 107.9 and has written 15 music biographies, including his latest, Four Strong Winds: Ian & Sylvia, which was published in September and has achieved positive reviews from across Canada and in England's Mojo magazine.
"I've actually slowed down right now," he says. "I've got three ideas before the publisher. I'll see if one of them bites. Two of the three are Winnipeg-related."
He has a bit more time to write these days since retiring from a full-time teaching gig at St. John's-Ravenscourt School three years ago, but continues to facilitate the annual Rock Show at the institution featuring more than 100 students performing a variety of music.
It was some of those students who will be performing in the Rock Owes the Classics show as part of the WSO's SoundBytes series. They have been practising hard to make sure everything is set for their debut Saturday, Einarson says.
"The conductor came a week ago to the kids' rehearsal to make sure we were doing the song the right way and that the segues would work, and he was very pleased," he says. "Of course, the tempos can be off, too. If we play Khachaturian's Sabre Dance too fast then the symphony has to be fast. It's one thing for the guitar to pick fast, but it's hard to pick fast on a violin or tuba," he says.
Speed tuba? How very rock 'n' roll.

MLS Playoffs
After enduring a year of heartbreak and failure for both club and country, Jaime Penedo finally got over the hump and ended the 2014 campaign with a championship.
Brought in as a savior for the LA Galaxy's goalkeeping situation midway through the 2013 campaign, Penedo suffered a pair of setbacks in successive fashion as Panama failed to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup and a month later LA were bounced from the postseason in the opening round.
Such disappointments stuck in the craw of the happy-go-lucky Panamanian goalkeeper heading into the 2014 season and he responded with aplomb.
During the regular season, Penedo enjoyed a 1.14 goals against average—.01 behind Goalkeeper of the Year Bill Hamid—while also making eight shutouts as he carried LA to the league's second best record. In the playoffs, he shook off any claims that he could not come up in big games with stellar performances in LA's series against Real Salt Lake and Seattle Sounders FC, the former which included a six save showing in the first leg.
In the MLS Cup final against New England, Penedo put forth yet another strong showing with six saves against the Revs to seal his first professional title since winning a title in Guatemala with Municipal. After years of frustration with Panama and his club teams, to win a title after such a trying season proved to be a "dream come true" for Penedo.
"It is a great blessing and a joy," Penedo told reporters after winning the title. "I dedicate this to dear God, my faith, my family, and my country."
How would you rate Penedo's 2014? Read my review of the Galaxy goalkeepers for LAGalaxy.com and vote below.
The LA Galaxy passed on making any selections in stage one of the 2014 MLS Re-Entry Draft.
Only three players were selected in the first process as former Sporting KC goalkeepers Eric Kronberg and Andy Gruenebaum were selected by Montreal Impact and San Jose Earthquakes respectively while former Real Salt Lake forward Robbie Findley was taken by Toronto FC.
Teams will now have a chance to regonotiate with their players made available for the Re-Entry Draft process before stage two on Dec. 18
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy Homegrown Player Bradford Jamieson IV was named by U.S. Under-20 head coach Tab Ramos for the team's upcoming training camp in Honduras from Dec. 15 to Dec. 22.
Jamieson, who took part in the team's recent fitness training camp earlier this month, returns to the fold in the U.S. U-20's final training camp of the year. During the training camp, the U.S. will play a pair of matches against Honduras on Dec. 18 and Dec. 21 at Morazan Stadium in San Pedro Sula.
The complete roster is below.
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy declined options on four players on Thursday and all four players will be available for the two stages of the MLS Re-Entry Draft Process on Dec. 12 and Dec. 18.
LA declined options on Galaxy II stalwarts Rafael Garcia, Chandler Hoffman, Bryan Perk as well as veteran outside back James Riley. The four players join center back Kyle Venter who was waived by the team on Wednesday.
Garcia made 23 appearances as the captain of Los Dos in 2014 while also making 11 appearances for the first team in his three years with the club. In two seasons with the Galaxy, Hoffman made eight appearances -- all of them in 2014 -- for the Galaxy while tallying 13 goals for the team's USL PRO affiliate. Perk, who was dealt with concussion issues for much of the season, appeared in five games for the Galaxy. Lastly, Riley played in just four games after suffering an meniscus injury in March.
Fresh off winning his second MLS Cup championship, Robbie Rogers is in the middle of a book tour for his autobiography "Coming Out to Play."
In an interview with the Huffington Post, Rogers talks about his new book and about his experiences with the Galaxy. In particular, Rogers discusses about the importance of retired LA Galaxy star Landon Donovan to his career and to his career since coming out.
Rogers' tour returns to Southern California on Dec. 13 at CostCo in Los Angeles and Book Soup in West Hollywood on Dec. 15.
CARSON, Calif. -- Robbie Keane enjoyed the finest season of his career in 2014 and now the Irish striker says that he'll take a well-deserved break that is causing him to take stock in his career.
Keane will be returning on Friday to Ireland after a season that saw him undergo a grueling recovery from a pair of Achilles surgeries before scoring 21 goals and 17 assists across 34 games in the regular season and playoffs en route to his third MLS Cup title in four years.
But despite winning the MLS MVP in 2014 and boasting one year on his contract with the Galaxy, the Irishman admitted to reporters at the club's championship rally on Monday that he'll be looking to reevaluate where he wants to be in the coming years.
"First and foremost, I've got to worry about myself," he said. "I have to worry about what I'm going to do. I've had a tremendous four years here. I need a vacation and see what next year holds for me first. I'll look at that first and see what's best for Robbie Keane instead of worrying about anybody else. I'll take a vacation and then see what I want to do."
Such talk comes amid a report that Queens Park Rangers head coach Harry Redknapp (Keane's former head coach at Tottenham Hotspur ) may be interested in bringing him to London on a short-term three month loan. Although the Irishman did not address such speculation, he did admit that he is considering his future.
"I definitely need to recharge the batteries and see what the next chapter is for me, whether it's here or it's somewhere else. I just need to take a break and consider," Keane said. "I'm not saying I'm going to leave, but what I'm saying is I need to consider what I want to do, you know? Sometimes change is good for everybody.
But when told of Keane's remarks, Galaxy head coach and general manager Bruce Arena shrugged off any talk about his captain leaving next season.
"I doubt that," he said. "Where do you think he's going? I'm confident Robbie Keane will be back here next year."
HERMOSA BEACH, Calif. –Rob Friend is hanging up his boots.
The little-used Canadian forward announced his retirement on Monday at the club's MLS Cup championship rally in Hermosa Beach. Friend made just 12 appearances for the Galaxy in all competitions while tallying just one assist for the club after joining in January.
Friend's injury troubles began in July following the club's friendly with Manchester United in what he described as a "freak accident" that occurred when a ball struck him in the forehead during training when he wasn't looking. Since the injury, which he believes was only made worse due to repeated head injuries during his decade-long career; Friend has tried to make a recovery, but fallen short each time.
"I made a few attempts at a comeback, but it's my body telling me that I've taken one too many hits to the head. I'm still struggling with a few symptoms and a lot of headaches. It's a combination of that it is not worth it to maybe take one more hit," Friend said. "I have to make that decision for myself and my family. I have hopefully a very long life ahead of me and I need to be a good father and a good husband to take care of my family. I don't ever want to go through what I've been through with this concussion again."
Although the decision seemed inevitable given his inability to return to the field, the striker admitted that he didn't come to decision lightly as he saw specialists across North America as he considered returning to the game. But despite the bittersweet ending to this chapter in his life, Friend still admits that he can hold his head up high given his success across Europe throughout his career.
"It's unfortunate. I wish the fans and the organization could have seen me at my best," said Friend. "I'll always take pride in my work ethic and attitude. I wasn't a fancy player but I think that I have a lot of respect from every player and organization. I had a lot of highs especially playing in the Bundesliga and coming from a small town in Canada, I had a lot against me and I succeeded."
As for what's next for the newly retired Friend, the 33-year-old now hopes to move into the business of soccer in some respect which is fitting for the Canadian who holds a degree in Business Economics from U.C. Santa Barbara.
One avenue that may be worth exploring for Friend if he is up for consideration is with the Canadian Soccer Association, a group that the former national team forward believes needs considerable reforms.
"I would love to change the entire dynamic of the Canadian Soccer Association. We're 20 years behind the U.S. and I think there is a lot of ideas and tips that we can take from them. We're just too far behind and it takes guys who have been outside of Canada and made it around the world to change the mentality and the system. It takes a lot of work and not one man is going to change it, but I would love to help out."
CARSON, Calif. -- One Day More.
The LA Galaxy will face off against the New England Revolution on Sunday in the 2014 MLS Cup Final. In the latest -- and final 2014 -- edition of By the Numbers, I look at the Galaxy's record against the Revs in MLS Cups. Spoiler Alert: It's pretty good.
Check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy continued their preparation for Sunday's MLS Cup Final against New England Revolution.
During training, Mora Photography and Galaxy Photographer Hana Asano captured training and the press conference with both LA and the Galaxy.
Following training, Galaxy midfielder Marcelo Sarvas reflected on the team's mood ahead of Sunday's game.
"It's the moment that we've been waiting for, for so long. At training, everyone is happy and motivated," said Sarvas. "You can sense that everyone is ready for this big game."
Robbie Keane on MVP: "I'm delighted to win the award, but I'd trade it in for a championship on Sunday"
LOS ANGELES -- When Robbie Keane arrived in Southern California in 2011, he made a simple yet powerful declarative statement: "I'm not coming here for a vacation."
It's pretty clear that he's backed up those words in his three-and-a-half years with the Galaxy.
On Wednesday, Keane was named the 2014 MLS Volkswagen MVP after a stellar season that saw the Irish striker score 19 goals and 14 assists to lead an LA team that led the league in scoring. Even as Keane basked in the success of his most recent season, many focused on the forward's great success with the club since joining the team in 2011.
Whereas previous incarnations of the Galaxy fell short of titles in 2009 and 2010, when Keane was introduced, the Galaxy pushed their way to the top, winning two straight MLS Cups in 2011 and 2012. And because of that, Galaxy boss Bruce Arena was not shy to declare Keane that Keane was missing piece that LA needed to truly contend for the league's top prize.
"I've watched Robbie for years and there was always something in the back of my mind that this was the type of player that we want to get in this league and that I'd love to have on my team one day," said Arena. "We were very fortunate when we had the opportunity to get him from Tottenham.
"He sets the tone for our team every day. He's good with the young players, he gets our team ready to play," Arena added. "Those are things that you don't see in the box score, but he's that valuable for our team each and every day."
But as you might expect from a player labeled the missing piece to a championship side, Keane's focus is not on winning individual honors, but rather the real title that will be awarded on Sunday.
"It's great to be recognized by your fellow professionals and the media. I'm delighted with the award, but I'd certainly trade it in for a championship on Sunday," said Keane. "These awards mean something, I'd be a fool if I said that it didn't, but if we didn't win the championship then it wouldn't mean that much to me. If we win, it'll cap off a great year for me and for our team."

Arizona Diamondbacks
The Pulse: D-backs fans don't want to add another pitcher
Every day, we at ArizonaSports.com ask our readers a question. It's the Sanderson Ford Poll Question of the Day, and it can be found midway down the right side of our home page.
Wednesday, we asked you if which free agent pitcher the D-backs should sign.
And in an overwhelming number, the answer was "no one."
A total of 702 votes were submitted, with 418 (60 percent) being for nobody at all. The next highest total, 140 votes, went to Matt Garza, who has since signed with the Milwaukee Brewers.
Former Colorado Rockie and Cleveland Indian Ubaldo Jimenez was the only other candidate to receive a respectable number of votes, with 67, but it's clear he wasn't a favorite of D-backs fans.
No, it would seem folks are content with what the Diamondbacks currently have and would like them to go into Spring Training with that group.

The room was quite authentic and cozy; not very spacious but enough to
accommodate a young couple. It had a big bathroom with a traditional
Turkish bath corner. There was a big terrace in which you can enjoy a
nice view of the fairy chimneys around. The location of the hotel was
the best as it was 3 mins of walk to the town center. There is no
dedicated parking area, yet you can park on the street. The staff were
as nice as any hotel staff should be. - Anonymous

Rumi Hotel was one of the best hotels we stayed at! Being tired from all the site seeing, Rumi hotel gave us that rest we needed ( it was very similar to western hotels). We came from the states so customer service was a big deal to us...the staff and specifically Ahmed, was so kind and helpful. Hassan was also a very warm-hearted, true, and helpful person :) thank you Rumi Hotel! - Anonymous
The location was excellent as the Bilkent University bus pick up was
on the same street, so we managed to get to the university for

In Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, Harry Osborn was played by James Franco. Now it seems director Marc Webb has found his Osborn for The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Reportedly, the new Harry beat out stiff competition for the role. Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables), Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) and Douglas Booth (Romeo and Juliet) were just a few names reportedly up for the role. Webb calls this actor "an exciting and extraordinary young actor and he is a fantastic addition to our cast."
Speaking of cast, Andrew Garfield returns as the masked vigilante as does Emma Stone to reprise her role of Gwen Stacy. For the second installment, Stone has competition for Spidey's heart. Mary Jane Watson arrives and will be played by Shailene Woodley (The Descendants). Her addition was confirmed previously as was Jamie Foxx's casting as the villainous Electro. Filming reportedly will begin early 2013 with a tentative release date of May 2, 2014 planned. Find out who's playing Peter Parker's best friend below.
When NBC announced it was planning on remaking the seminal musical for the small screen, I nearly had a heart attack. One on hand, I was excited to see what the Smash producers would have in store for us. On the other hand, The Sound of Music is truly one of my favorite things and tinkering around with a classic is difficult endeavor. I have faith though that Craig Zadan and Neil Meron won't let me down. After all, they did work on the film versions of Hairspray and Chicago.
"It isn't our intention to produce a remake of the movie version of 'The Sound of Music' – that would be artistic blasphemy," Craig Zadan says in a statement. "What we want to do, instead, is to give audiences a completely fresh experience of this great Tony Award-winning stage musical in the form of a classic television event, combined with the spontaneity of a live performance. And all of the actors will be singing live; there will be no lip-synching to pre-recordings."
As with any great musical, casting is key. If you don't have the right person playing the lead parts, you're up sh*t creek without a paddle. Maria Von Trapp is definitely one of the most iconic roles in musical history. Trying to follow in the footsteps of Julie Andrews is a tall order. Let's face it. Anyone who's cast in NBC's remake is going to have a few naysayers. Personally, I love their choice. Find out who it is below.
I have to say, Arrow is one of the season's most pleasant surprises. Naturally, Stephen Amell is the main draw but I've actually enjoyed the story lines and find myself just not tuning in for Amell's body which is a work of art in itself. Side note. It's even better in person. To my HUGE SURPRISE, I bumped into him at the gym which is a shocker since I only go once in a blue moon ;) But enough about me and my celeb sightings. We're here to discuss this juicy bit of casting news.
Looks like a True Blood cast member is keeping themselves busy while the show is in hiatus. This actress just landed a multi-episode arc on The CW's breakout hit. She will play McKenna Hall, a Starling City vice cop. Hall is described as being tough, sexy and formidable and has a complicated history with Oliver (Stephen Amell). Based on previous 'complications', I would say they had a little nookie nookie. Find out who it is after the jump.
When The Mindy Project is on its game, it's friggin' hilarious. Even when it's off, Mindy Kaling saves the episode with her charming self. Even though the critically-acclaimed sitcom hasn't resonated with viewers and become a breakout hit, FOX is behind the show. It recently gave it an expanded full-season order of episodes- two more than the usual.
Personally, I think the cast is on the bigger side. The need to trim down the fat so they can focus on the characters that work. Looks like producers of the FOX show agree with my sentiment. They are tinkering with the cast and getting rid of one completely and demoting one to recurring status. Have any ideas on who they are? Find out below.
True Blood is adding a hot new fairy for its sixth season. No, not that kind of fairy but a faerie. Rob Kazinsky has been tapped by the supernatural drama to play Ben who helps Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and her brother Jason (Ryan Kwanten) discover the truth behind their parent's murders. Reportedly, Kazinsky will be a regular cast member of the HBO next season. Rumor has it he'll also play, yet another love interest, for Sookie. In my next supernatural life, I'd like to come back as Sookie. First Eric Northman, then Alicide and now this. How lucky can one woman get?
Kazinksy hails from West Sussex, England. The 28-year-old actor is best known for his role on UK's long-running soap, EastEnders. Robert is of Polish and Russian descent. Originally, he was to appear as Fili in the upcoming film, The Hobbit. Citing personal reasons, Kazinsky backed out of the role months after his casting was announced. Fans of ABC's Brothers & Sisters might recognize him when he guest starred as Dr. Rick Appleton on the show. In 2008, he ranked No. 3 on All About Soap's annual list of 100 Sexiest Men in Soap. Check out True Blood's new addition below and see if you agree with the publication's sexy assessment.
At first Michael Bay denied it, but it appears rumors were true after all. The producer confirmed what people were speculating. What a difference a week makes. Transformers 4 revolves around a new cast of characters (so long Shia Labeouf) and will be a much darker sequel to Transformers: Dark of the Moon. With Labeouf out, Bay was on the hunt for a new leading man to save humanity from the evil Megatron and his army. Find out who below. Side note, how wicked is the new logo incorporating half of the Decepticon insignia? That alone makes me want to revisit the franchise, plus the fact this actor is on board.
I think every character in the award-winning comedy, Modern Family is fantastic, but Gloria (brilliantly played by Sofia Vergara) has to be my favorite.
In an upcoming episode, we'll meet Gloria's mom named Pilar and sister named Sonia for the first time. They will appear in the 12th episode of the season. My guess is that it will have something to do with the pregnancy, since that'd be a pretty solid reason for them to come to visit. I can only imagine a lot of yelling and big personalities. "There's a bit of a competitive relationship between Gloria and her sister that will be fun," executive producer Christopher Lloyd told EW. "The mother is the formidable, domineering character in the family, and has a complicated relationship with Jay (Ed O'Neill). I'm not sure she's ever completely accepted Jay, and they lock horns in the episode."
The episode is titled "Fulgencio" and they begin filming it tomorrow (Monday). Other guest stars this season include Matthew Broderick, Jason Mantzoukas, and Shelley Long. Find out who's playing Gloria's mom & sister below.
Find out who will be playing her mom & sister after the jump…
If you read our Who'd You Rather match-up this week, you know I'm a fan of the CW freshman series, Arrow. I'm not a comic book geek by any means, but I'm really enjoying the drama, surprisingly. Having a hot lead like Stephen Amell doesn't hurt either.
EW.com is reporting that the show is adding a new villain to the show's growing roster of bad guys. Deadshot, Deathstroke, The Huntress and China White have already been enlisted to face off against Oliver Queen this season. On the tenth episode, Firefly joins the battle royale. For all you comic book novices, Firefly is a DC Comics character and originally one of Batman's nemesis. Find out what actor has been cast in the role.

Philip Rubio: Austerity Saturdays from the Postal Servicetags: Mail, USPS, Philip Rubio
Philip Rubio is an assistant professor of history at North Carolina A&T State University, and author of There's Always Work at the Post Office: African American Postal Workers and the Fight for Jobs, Justice, and Equality (2010, University of North Carolina Press).
It's Saturday February 9th as I write this. Every postal worker knows by heart their first official day of work as their "anniversary date." Not for sentimental reasons, but for purposes of seniority, retirement, and all the benefits thereof. It's an important date.
I retired early from the post office in Durham, North Carolina after 20 years to go to graduate school (30 years is standard retirement at the US Postal Service). But even though it's been almost 13 years since I last punched off the clock, I still remember my anniversary date: February 9, 1980. Making $8.10 an hour to start: up from $2.95 an hour a decade, the result of over 200,000 postal workers staging an eight-day nationwide wildcat strike beginning March 18, 1970–the largest wildcat in U.S. history, leading to the 1971 transformation into the US Postal Service as a self-supporting independent government agency.
February 9, 1980 began a week of paid, on-the-job training for me in Denver, Colorado. Postal management impressed upon us the imperative of maintaining the "sanctity of the mail." That same week union representatives urged us to join whatever union went with our craft. The vast majority of postal workers are unionized....

Yes THQ is digging into the past to bring some of the wrestling entertainment industries greatest names back into the spotlight, at least in the videogame.
The game will be available on the Xbox360 and PS3, hoping to hit the ring sometime next spring around March.
It's unclear yet what classic legends of wrestling are going to be given the voodoo resurrection rituals by JAKKS, developer of SmackDown Vs. Raw. I'm sure the fans can't wait for the early nineties spandex suits to get a dust off and splattered with blood, sinew and heart wrenching boasts.
"JAKKS Pacific is pleased to introduce a new WWE videogame property to the fighting genre," said Nelo Lucich, senior vice president of interactive, JAKKS Pacific.
"The WWE SmackDown vs. Raw franchise has captured a collective audience of WWE fans, game enthusiasts and casual players, and we are confident that WWE Legends of WrestleMania will be poised for great success."

About Hal Leonard Fake Books
A "fake book" contains songs written in a concise format that includes only the melody and chords, letting you interpret the song's performance as you feel is appropriate. This is great for quickly learning songs by yourself or with an ensemble.
Each song in a fake book only has a single melody actually written out in notes, which is usually the vocal or lead melody. This melody will have the lyrics written beneath the notes, with each word aligned to its corresponding note. Above the notes of the melody will appear the names of the appropriate chords to play - for example, a "C minor" chord would be written as "Cmin" or Cm", rather than writing out all of the notes in those chords as they appeared in the original version of the song.
This format is very compact, which is why you will often see fakebooks containing 500 or more songs.

Whether she's creating nail art for salon clients or murals for homeowners, her incredible eye for detail ensures remarkable work.
A nail tech for 15 years, Nakao trained both in California and her native Japan, where she also studied fine art, including oil painting and graphic design. "I knew it would be hard to make a living as an artist," says Nakao. "That's why I chose nails — because it would allow me to paint."
In 1994, an artist client offered her a job as an assistant painter, taking Nakao to France for several months to paint murals in her home. When other clients heard about her new skill, she received invitations to adorn their walls as well."Now I'm getting work mostly through word-of-mouth," she says.

I have posted a number of previous notes about teleradiology and the "nighthawk" industry it has spawned (see: NighHawk Radiology Services Enters Software Arena ; Radiology Groups Begin to Develop Their Own "Nighthawk" Service Model ; Tighter Integration of Nighthawk Reports into Hospital EMRs and RISs ). Teleradiology interests me for many reasons but one of the most important is that we can apply lessons learned to telepathology as it evolves. Here's a recent press release from Virtual Radiologic (vRad) that's fascinating in terms of how the company presents itself (see: Virtual Radiologic Awarded Its 12th and 13th Patents ).
In a kind of post-modern twist, vRad does not refer to itself as a teleradiology company but rather as the nation's largest radiology practice. The closest it gets to the "T" word (teleradiology) is to call itself "a technology-enabled national radiology practice working in partnership with local radiologists and hospitals." I think that the company goal here is for hospital CEOs across the country to regard it as analogous to the local radiology practice it might replace, although this new practice employs 450 radiologists.
Virtual Radiologic is an interesting example of the progression to technology-driven Big Medicine (see: The Transition to "Big Med": Need for Emphasis on Standardization and Cost ; Physician Private Practice Declines; the Last Barrier to Emergence of "Big Medicine" ; The Institutionalization of Healthcare; Consequences of Big Medicine? ). There are going to be winners and losers in the process as we move increasingly to Big Medicine. Inevitably, some hospitals will replace their local radiology groups. With all radiology images digital and thus portable, the local groups may not be able to compete with vRad. Another option, however, is for a local radiology group to supplement its call schedule with vRad radiologists at night and on weekends or utilize vRad specialty coverage like neuroradiology around the clock. This is sometimes called the hybrid radiology staffing model (see: Hybrid Model of On-Site and Remote Radiology for Enhanced Patient Workflow ).

Aunty be wishin' all y'all a wunnerful, healthy, prosperous and peaceful 2015.
I sure wish y'all would leave me a note of "hello, I am still out heah, Auntybelle, come see my blog."
Meanwhile, heah is a little funny thang that Uncle did last night, er, ah...early this mornin'.
At home, after we'uns returned from a family gatherin', our backdoor neighbors (husband and wife attorneys) had 'em a
giant speaker on they pool deck, a DJ wif' a huge crowd of merry-makers--the deafenin'
music went on after 1 a.m. whereupon Uncle got hisself out of bed, put on his britches, drove his buggy 'round to the next block, banged on they door, but that
nobody came to see who t'was theah--they couldn't hear the door over the music, I reckon.
No matter, Uncle jes' let
hisself in, seen a "bombed" couple at a table, as't 'em if he could speak wif' Ernie. They said Ernie done crawled off to bed "hours ago" but Tiffany was dancin'
out by the pool --Uncle went out to pool area, about 20 people were
partying, Tiffany saw him an' her mouth jes' opened into a giant O.
Uncle: "Happy New Year Tiffany. Mine would begin better iffin' I could
get a little sleep now."
He claims he smiled at her. Then turned on
his heel and departed.
In 20 minutes their house was quiet.
Sorta' puts me to mind of a real howler of a story on Uncle and Wimmen wif' drinks, from the Front Porch Archives. Click right heah to read it, but first go give yore blackeyed peas a stir--y'all IS havin' blackeyed peas on New Year's Day, aint'cha'?
Happy Birthday America!!!!

Could Seersucker Balance the Budget?
Y'all, I wuz researchin' Seersucker havin' jes' been asked about it, and I recalled my recent visit to Natchez whar' I had seen more than a few gentlemen in this quintessential Southern summer staple. An' looky heah-- what a fun read on the history of sartorial senators an' balancing the budget. Lemme know what ya think, an' also, does any of y'all wear seersucker? Ya' knows that Aunty be partial to cotton batiste, so of course Seersucker is beloved as well. Anyhoo, this be a blog post from a Southern lawyer, which I done pasted below and you can find it heah:
When it comes to politics,America has become one big dysfunctional family. Democrats hate Republicans, Republicans hate
Democrats, and now, Republicans even hate Republicans.
Democrats, and now, Republicans even hate Republicans.
The so-called "Tea Party Republicans" are now violating President Ronald Reagan's "Eleventh Commandment": Thou shalt not criticize a fellow Republican.
The Tea Party crowd is determined to cleanse the Grand Old Party of liberal Republicans, even though liberal Republicans went the way of the dinosaur years ago. In fact, "liberal Republican" is now an
oxymoron like "jumbo shrimp" or "student athlete."
oxymoron like "jumbo shrimp" or "student athlete."
A generation ago, Republican President Ronald Regan and Democrat House Speaker Tip O'Neill were best of friends. The fought each other politically, but then got together like a couple of old Irishmen for drinks and jokes, and figured out a way to work together.
But these days in Washington, Democrats and Republicans get along like the Hatfields and the McCoys.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell have a personality conflict. They hate each other.
A number of Republican Congressmen are trying to impeach President Obama even though he hasn't had an affair with an intern.
The federal government is scheduled to run out of money again in October, even though it actually ran out of money about fifty years ago, but keeps printing it. But apparently, on some date this October,
the federal government will declare that it is actually out of money so that the Treasury Secretary can go to the Bank of China and get another loan, which will hopefully come with a new toaster.
the federal government will declare that it is actually out of money so that the Treasury Secretary can go to the Bank of China and get another loan, which will hopefully come with a new toaster.
There is a very real threat that come October, the President and Congress will not be able to agree on how to raise the federal debt ceiling and get another loan from the Bank of China, and the federal government might actually shut down like it did for a few days back
in the 1990s.
in the 1990s.
Polls show that the American people want the President and Congress, Democrats and the Republicans and the Tea Partiers to all quit bickering and sit down and try to work together for the good of the country. But in Washington these days, the word "compromise" has become synonymous with "treason."
But fear not, my fellow Americans. I have a solution. I call it the "Seersucker Solution." We need to bring back Seersucker Thursday to the United States Senate.
Seersucker is the greatest fashion invention of all time. In 1907, Joseph Haspel, a New Orleans clothier, designed a light-weight suit in blue and white striped cotton fabric. Haspel named the fabric
"seersucker" from Persian words meaning "milk and sugar."
"seersucker" from Persian words meaning "milk and sugar."
Haspel began selling his seersucker suits to New Orleans "bidnessmen," and in the 1920s, seersucker suits went national as Brooks Brothers started selling its own line of the summer suits throughout the country.
In the years before air conditioning, the seersucker suit was the only practical wear for politicians in Washington, as seersucker became a fashion staple for southern Senators.
In the 1962 film "To Kill a Mockingbird," Atticus Finch, played by Gregory Peck, wore a three-piece seersucker suit in a hot Alabama courtroom and inspired thousands of lawyers - myself included - to don seersucker even in air-conditioned courthouses.
And then, in 1996, seersucker suits literally brought Republicans and Democrats together in the United States Senate.
Mississippi Senator Trent Lott decided the time had come to revive the Senate's sartorial tradition. As the Senate Majority Leader, he announced that the third Thursday in June of each year would be "Seersucker Thursday." He urged his colleagues to prove that "the
Senate isn't just a bunch of dowdy folks wearing dark suits and a red or blue tie."
Senate isn't just a bunch of dowdy folks wearing dark suits and a red or blue tie."
He was joined in this bipartisan fashion call by Democratic Senator Diane Feinstein of California. Feinstein urged her fellow female members of the Senate to join the bipartisan fashion statement. "I watch the men preening in the Senate," she
said, "and I figure we should give them a little bit of a horse race."
said, "and I figure we should give them a little bit of a horse race."
Senator Feinstein gave eleven of her female Senate colleagues seersucker dress suits.
And then, in the spirit of bipartisan camaraderie, Democrat and Republican Senators gathered together on the floor of the United States Senate, wearing the genteel summer-weight puckered cotton. It was a marvelous sight.
Just one year before the advent of Seersucker Thursday, the federal government had shut down after a big fight between President Clinton, House Speaker Newt Gingrich, and Democrat and Republican members of the Senate and House.
But a year later, as Republican and Democratic members of the Senate posed side-by-side on Seersucker Thursday, the federal government began to function again. In a few years, the federal budget had miraculously been balanced, and we were paying off the national debt.
Coincidence? I think not. It was a bipartisan seersucker solution to America's problems.
Seersucker Thursday continued for several years. And then, sadly, the seersucker bond was broken. The Washington Post reported it was cancelled because "Senator Lott's former colleagues thought it would be politically unwise to be seen doing something frivolous when there's so much conflict over major issues."
And so now, members of the Senate have quit doing something "frivolous," like standing side-by-side in light cotton suits and powdered white bucks, smiling and laughing, and treating each other with respect.
They are back to dark suits, and serious, hateful expressions. And consequently, the whole country is going to hell in a worsted wool hand basket.
And so, my fellow Americans, I say it is time to bring back Seersucker Thursday. And while we're at it, let's declare today,
the last Friday in August, the annual National Seersucker Day. It is the last working day before Labor Day, the date each year when the fashion police make us put our seersucker suits back in the cedar closet until next Memorial Day.
the last Friday in August, the annual National Seersucker Day. It is the last working day before Labor Day, the date each year when the fashion police make us put our seersucker suits back in the cedar closet until next Memorial Day.
We Americans need to come together one day each year for a sartorial seersucker celebration.
Milk and sugar indeed! It is the seersucker solution to what ails America.
