NEW YORK — Scoop is dipping its toes into the Aegean Sea in the first step of a planned international rollout.
This story first appeared in the July 5, 2007 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
The specialty retailer unveiled a 300-square-foot beach shop in Mykonos, Greece, this week and co-founder Stefani Greenfield said she hopes to replicate the concept internationally in Saint-Tropez, Capri and St. Barth's, among other locations. In a further expansion push, she also will begin wholesaling her Scoop Beach private label collection, and will open a full-line Scoop unit in London late next year.
Greenfield's overseas push comes as the contemporary market in the U.S. continues to boom, yet is becoming increasingly competitive among such specialty retailers as Scoop, Barneys Co-op, Intermix and Calypso (for more on the market, see page 15). More and more contemporary designers — from Marc Jacobs to Nanette Lepore — are opening their own stores, while Neiman Marcus' Cusp is another entry that could further crowd things if the company decides to roll it out after its test period; there currently are three Cusps with another set to open.
Contemporary retailers, which used to have ample elbow room, now find themselves bumping into one another as they flock to the same top malls and shopping thoroughfares. Their assortments often overlap, although each store is merchandised differently, has a distinct point of view and all claim to be highly productive, with sales per square foot of more than $1,000.
Scoop operates four stores in Manhattan and units in Chicago, Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Dallas and Greenvale, N.Y. With five stores in Manhattan, Intermix has stores at the Americana Manhasset in Manhasset and in Southampton, both on Long Island. In addition to its 11 Manhattan stores, Calypso has opened units on Long Island in Sag Harbor, Greenport, Southampton, East Hampton, Westhampton and Montauk. The retailer has also branched out to Boston, Chicago, California, Florida and Texas. Calypso's Christianne Celle has opened three stores in Paris and a unit in St. Barths.
For Greenfield, innovations like Scoop Beach and international expansion are ways to further differentiate herself from the pack. Scoop opened its first beach shop in East Hampton in summer 2005 and beach or resort stores have since become popular. Part of their appeal is that retailers believe consumers are more relaxed and therefore willing to spend money on vacation, and resort stores in hotels have a captive audience. J. Crew in May 2004 tested the waters with a delivery business in East Hampton. Sales were so strong that the following summer the company opened its J. Crew At-the-Beach store on Main Street.
Greenfield knew her beach shop concept had legs. When she saw the hip Belvedere Hotel in Mykonos, with its Matsuhisa Mykonos restaurant and upcoming Colin Cowie Sea Bar, she knew its owners shared her sensibility. Greenfield, who said she's been summering in Greece for years, said she'd been looking for an international location to test her beach concept.
At first, Greenfield and her partner, Uzi Ben-Avraham, discussed opening a company-owned shop with the Belvedere's owners, brothers Tasos and Nikolas Ioannidis, but eventually decided to simply supply and merchandise the store, which is called the Belvedere Beach Shop Curated by Scoop. Next year she plans to open a 1,000-square-foot Scoop Beach store in the Belvedere.
"Our Scoop Beach formula for East Hampton and the Shore Club Hotel in Miami works," Greenfield said. "We're opening a store in Malibu [Calif.] next year. It's a great way to expand Scoop."
The Ioannidises are developing a property in "St. Moritz and have other projects all over the world. They're working on a few hotels. We'd open in other places."
Scoop Beach is geared toward the casual, carefree lifestyle with caftans, jelabas, pareos and sarongs. "St. Barth's designers epitomize the lifestyle," Greenfield said. Offerings include halter dresses by Poupette, Donale Pour Scoop embroidered shirts and harem pants and Lee Angel for Scoop bangle bracelets.
"I love the Mediterranean lifestyle," Greenfield said. "Everything is done late, you have late lunches and dinner starts at 11 p.m. I think of [Scoop Beach] as head-to-toe beach dressing. I think of Talitha Getty, cotton gauzes with metallic trim, sundresses worn with gold chain belts and colored resin bangles."
With stark white walls, stainless steel fixtures and a gray concrete floor, the Mykonos shop resembles a smaller version of a Scoop store. A section of the shop is dubbed the Belvedere Beauty Bar and is decorated with mirrors and glass. Besides Scoop fragrances, it features London's Cow Shed soaps, India Hicks' Island Living moisturizers and Jo Wood Organics scents. Terme di Salsomaggiore, a line from Italy, is based on thermal iodine waters and Anatomical from London features clever product names such as Giving Good Head Shower Gel and No Old Bags Allowed Eye Cream.
Asked for a sales projection for the shop, Greenfield demurred. "The goal is to sell out of everything," she said. "It's a short season, May to September."
Scoop has been expanding its product assortment with categories such as baby's, men's and home in particular stores. It assiduously courts exclusives and co-branded programs, such as the Oliver Peoples for Scoop sunglasses it sells in Mykonos. The retailer has also introduced new concepts such as Scoop It Up, an outlet store on Broadway in Manhattan's SoHo neighborhood, blocks away from the 10,000-square-foot megastore at 473-475 Broadway it opened in February.
Scoop has been gearing up to wholesale its branded products. The company ramped up distribution for its private label shoes, which were shipped to 150 stores worldwide this spring. Women's private label apparel also received a push for spring. The collection includes stretch cotton minidresses, $198; silk tube dresses, $345; patent leather clutches, $175; embroidered peasant dresses and blouses, $225 and $185, respectively, and quilted patent leather ballet flats, $165. Co-branded products include Splendid for Scoop rompers $145, Donale for Scoop jumpsuits, $195, and Paige for Scoop Roxbury peg skinny jeans, $190.
"We're launching a new label, Scoop Beach, which we're going to wholesale," Greenfield said. "It's for people to buy 12 months a year."
Scoop Beach will be sold on Net-a-porter.com and in department and specialty stores. "We're represented by Findings Showroom in New York and Los Angeles, which sells our shoes," she said.
Greenfield said a beach store in a hotel has given her the opportunity to further reinforce the Scoop brand. "We designed our own flip-flops and beach bags for the store," she said. "We also outfitted the staff. Adam Lippes of adampluseve designed breakfast uniforms, which are ikat-print shirts and white pants. Scoop designed printed long tube dresses for the reception employees, Stacey Bendet from Alice + Olivia created a black ruffle-front halter top and navy pants, which are worn with Scoop ballet flats for evening, and Michelle Jonas designed the chicest dresses for the hostesses, white minidresses with gold rings."
She added, "We were on the beach today and I saw three Scoop bags. A lot of local Greeks are shopping."

Hi to all! :-)
First off I would just like to say what a fab bit of kit WP is!! Thanks to all for contributing!
Now, I have a question that I have been trying to solve all afternoon here, I have spent several hours trawling through posts to find a solution to my problem - but to know avail, so here goes.
I'm using the FeedWordPress plug-in on one of my sites, and it works great! But, I'm trying to use one of the functions listed at http://projects.radgeek.com/feedwordpress/api#template-api to call the URI of the story pulled onto my blog.
The code I am using is this, on my main page index template:
<?php get_syndication_permalink() ?>
Basically nothing happens at all - I'm sure I'm missing something and if anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful!
Cheers :-)

Zynga Shares Fall Hard After Layoffs Announcement
Zynga shares are down sharply in the final trading hour after the company announced a major cost-cutting program that includes layoffs and closing certain office locations.
The company said it intends to cut about 520 employees mostly by August, and the restructuring is estimated to save about $70 million to $80 million. It also noted that though its FarmVille franchise has performed well, other games are struggling.
Shares dropped as much as 16% and recently traded around $3. The stock sits well below its $10 IPO price in December 2011.

Today at OnlineAthens.com, our digital dilettantes are taking a cue from syndicated columnist and political humorist Will Durst, whose column in today's Athens Banner-Herald takes an admittedly premature look at the 2016 presidential sweepstakes, paying particular attention to the Republican field. Here are a few of the online comments appended to Durst's column:
-- "It's a shame Durst looked only in one direction.
"There's so much fun to had with the Tainted Lady. You know, Hillary — Bill with all the sleaze and none of the charm.
"Or Televangelist Al, getting wealthy off the foolish faithful.
"Or Uncle Joe, who is his own punch line.
"A shame, but not a surprise."
• "Ross"
-- "my money's on Christie to ride the moderate bus to an easy lock.
"A Christie/Rubio ticket would get most of the swing states that decide the election (thanks to the inability of Congress to do anything such as bring our electoral process into the new millennium).
"And Christie Rubio sounds a lot like a good deli sandwich. People are hungry for leadership ... and maybe a Christie Rubio on caraway rye soaked "in egg batter and grilled to perfection. A few pickels. Gruyere. fuhgeddaboudit."
• "cyou299"
-- "The person who wins will be the on who can, convincingly promise the most goodies for the people. How much is he/she gonna gimme? They will win and take the torch from GWB and BHO and burn a little more of the nation to ashes. We are, we have been and we will be in a downward sprial. I don't beleve anything can change that now."
• "Farmer GA"
-- "The republican primaries will be a blood letting and the Tea Party will bleed the impure and not sufficiently conservative enoughs away and be left with a candidate so far to the right that, like Mitt and McCain, who will find it hard to pull back to the middle where the majority of Americans sit."
• "avenger"
Also attracting commenters' attention today is Miami Herald columnist Leonard Pitts' commentary on black grandparents taking their grandchildren to see "The Butler," the movie about a black man who served for decades as a butler in the White House.
-- "What needs to be focused on is that it is 'The Past' ... minorities no longer have to be worried about 'hanging like leaves' ... You need to look FORWARD Mr. Pitts.
"Worlds of opportunity await everyone Mr. Pitts. Appreciate what got us to this point but move towards something, a purpose of life, a sense of promise and goals."
• "JaxDawg"
-- "... I, for one, will not see 'The Butler'. I'm sure it is a wonderful story of a good hard-working man and his family. I will not see it because Jane Fonda was cast as Nancy Reagan. That was a slap in the face to many Americans, most especially, our Vietnam vets! She is not fit to portray this lady and I understand the movie itself casts a bad light on President Reagan! Blacks are always upset about something. Well, there are many Black and White upset about this, so whatever money the movie makes, it won't be from good, honest, working America and its veterans."

The vibration part of it stopped working and this is a integral part of the Brocato Vibrastrait hair smoother / straightener.
They deleted my first Facebook message and ignored all of my emails. When I finally posted at their Facebook that I was going to report them to RipOff Report they immediately responded.
They want me to go to the local UPS shop, wait in the forever line (one clerk, lots of customers), purchase the appropriate UPS box to pack up the Brocato Vibrastrait hair smoother / straightener, pay to ship it back to Brocato, and then sit on my hands and wait several weeks for a replacement should they even agree to a replacement (it's under warranty and nothing bad happened to it except that it stopped working).
So after going to the expense of sending it back as well as my time spent sending it back, then I have to go to a store and spend more of my time and money to purchase another hair smoother / straightener to use in the meantime.
Hair smoothers / straighteners aren't cheap. So by the time I'm done with all of the various expenses I have to go to in order to get a replacement I might as well buy a new one.
I understand that it's normal to return something before getting a replacement but when it means you have to spend as much as the original product just to get a replacement then that's a rip off!
Here's a link to the YouTube video showing that the Brocato Vibrastrait Hair Smoother / Straightener does not work.
Thank you!

i dont know why...but it made me sad.. ...also great pic, i'm happy again!
Lovely and nice
I love how this is unedited. We can still see a little bit of the once-vibrant hues shining through. It's not often that we see photos of flowers past their prime, so thank you for taking another road and showing us that it can be done very successfully.
Great work.
Great work.
very nice!

Looking for feedback - Currently holding shares (all in, no cash reserve) just under $34.90 based on what I thought the technicals were doing. Blind sided by the sell off. Current plan is to either:
A.) Sell a Dec call above my cost basis on a run up to X-Div date and go to cash If I can get a call above my cost basis and equal to or more than the dividend amount, then sell a Jan call.
B.) Hold and collect the dividend then sell the Jan Call.
Thoughts? constructive comments?
You have shares? Don't even worry. If you had calls, you would be screwed because they would have expired worthless. Just collect the dividend.
Hold and collect the div. All REITS down today. The percentage that this stock is down today does not exceed the div. payout.
Agreed. I have read over a bunch of the posts on what might happen with the dividend payout, and even if it drops in 2013 to 10% (which I think is unlikely based on what AGNC management has said so far) I'll be able to recoup the losses and possibly make some money next year. It's just frustrating, especially when going over things and analyzing what I could have done better. For instance: I see where I could have taken about a one dollar per share loss at the break through support on the price, then gotten back in at a lower price with a cash secured put and I would be looking OK right now. Frustrating. Educational, but frustrating.
TA is bogus at the best of times, but in the case of mREITs will kill you.
Selling calls right now is probably not a good idea. There's a div announcement coming, and then a div runup. Your time horizon and certainty about a decline have to be very tight to justify making any bearish plays on this stock.
Collecting the div, or selling at the pre-div peak, are your best bets for getting some of your money back. I don't think we'll see 34 in this runup, but maybe. 35 is really unlikely. We'll need to see the new income-tax structure that Washington is putting together. That's probably true of all sectors.
Surf the fiscal cliff news until it's either enacted or obviated. That's my strategy.
Thanks for the input. TA has served me pretty well the last 10 years (along with a modicum of fundamental analysis), but I missed the trend reversal by being too optimistic based on past TA performance - so you have a point. I've got the patience and discipline to work out of the position and I'm tending towards collecting the divvy to start lowering my cost basis then moving forward. After the dividend my cost basis will be more workable and I can start looking at various option tactics. It just bothers the heck out of me to have "dead" money for several months.
sounds reasonable

The weather station on the Cedar Key dock hit the big one Tuesday morning as a line of storms moved through Levy County clocking winds gusting up to 91 miles per hour.
Before that a weather station on the island recorded a 74 mph wind gust.
A dock behind Gulfside Motel was knocked down, but the island's most famous landmark, the Honeymoon Cottage, was still standing.
"It's still there. I mean what can you say," said Cedar Key Fire Chief Robert Robinson.
President's Weekend shaped up to be both busy and productive for Levy County investigators when they made six arrests that included robberies and thefts in the Williston area.
Det. Sgt. Mike Narayan arrested Steven A. Crosby, 46, of Williston Feb. 18 for burglary of a dwelling and grand theft.
A two-hour brainstorming session last Thursday ended with the Williston City Council telling its manager to make a recommendation on the state of impact fees.
The directive began in March 2012 when the council voted to put a one-year moratorium on the fees, assessed on new construction to help offset the costs of infrastrcuture expansion.
With the deadline looming to either extend the moratorium, at the Jan. 22 meeting, council City Manager Scott Lippmann to draft an ordinance that would abolish the fees.
A Thursday crash on U.S. Highway 41, just south of the intersection at County Road 335, at 8:20 p.m. claimed the lives of two Newberry residents, one of whom was honored this month as Alachua County's Crossing Guard of the Year.
It also tied up the busy highway that passes through the Raleigh community, which has a blinker at the intersection, and connects Archer, Newberry and Williston, among other rural communities.
The Levy County Sheriff's Office reports the following arrests:
Feb. 14, Cort Beebe, 24, Alachua, two counts burglary, two counts criminal mischief, grand theft. Bond $195,000.
Feb. 15, Brian Lee Bowmer, 25, Old Town, VOP.
Feb. 12, John Haywood Boyd, 71, Williston, out of county warrant.
Feb. 11, Marvin W. Clark, 44, Monticello, four VOP.
Feb. 13, Robert Allan Coddington, 28, Spring Hill, VOP.
On a very cold, damp and chilly Friday night, the Lady Red Devil softball team played the Keystone Lady Indians to a 2-2 tie after seven innings of regulation play.
The Lady Red Devils took an early 1-0 lead in the second inning as Leticia Coronado drove home a run with a double hit sharply up the middle. The Lady Indians wasted little time as they tied the game in the third inning at 1-1 after loading the bases.
Neither team could add to their score in the fourth, fifth, or sixth inning as both teams played good defense.
The depth and future of Red Devil Basketball under Head Coach Steve Faulkner was certainly evident in the Red Devils' win over the South Sumter Raiders 71-54, before a packed Red Devil Gym Feb. 14.
The Red Devils fell behind 2-0 before Tre Wilson banged in a 3-point basket to put the Red Devils in the lead.
It was a lead the Red Devils would not give up, despite starters Wilson and Earl Brown going to the bench early in the first quarter, with two personal fouls.
By Bryan Hoopaugh
Williston's Red Devils started off the diamond season right last Friday by edging out visiting Santa Fe in a close fought battle 3-2.
Williston scored first in the bottom of the third with an RBI single by Justin Forsythe which scored Cameron Coffey who reached on an error by Santa Fe's third first baseman Nate Pelham.
The public will get its first say on a proposal to extend alcohol sales beyond midnight in the unincorporated county areas during a workshop on March 5 at 1 p.m.
The Levy County Commission scheduled the workshop after receiving a briefing from County Attorney Anne Bast Brown. Brown presented the board with a proposed ordinance to change the ban on alcohol sales, consumption and service between midnight and 7 a.m. to only between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m.
It's George Orwell's Animal Farm over at the Williston Airport.
That's because the wild hogs have taken over–so much in fact, that city leaders are looking for someone to pay the city for eradicating the wild swine.
Gestation for swine is about 112-114 days, which means it's conceivable for a sow to deliver three litters a year with as many as 14 piglets at a time.

Quietness Renamed
The power lines connected to telephone poles dangled sharply dark and loose in the pink sky. The boy and the girl held hands, and her black flip-flops slapped the wet pavement quietly with each step.
He wanted to tell her that the sky looked like cotton candy, or roses, or the finger nail polish he would imagine his mother might have worn. He scratched his nose with his free hand instead, and said quietly, "I have to be home by seven, or seven thirty, something." His voice trailed off.
"Okay." She squeezed his hand tighter.
Lights came on in the houses and over their heads, and the sky faded slowly from the cotton candy pink to a fiery orange, then blushing red, then bruised purple until entirely deadened black.

I'm using wordpress to set up a site for my brother who is a pastor. He would like to offer downloads of his sermons which come as rather large mp3 files (too large, in my view!). He is never going to learn to use FTP, so is there a WP plugin that would allow me to handle large uploads? The built in uploader falls over when I try.
thanks for any help.

After an about an hour I called the number. I could hear several people in the background..and I could hear dollar amounts being given. The phone was answered with a slow Hello by a man that also had a fairly heavy accent..not a professional introduction, just a Hello. I asked for Mike Anderson and was answered by a "yeah". I asked if he was with the State Attorney's General Office, and he again said "yeah". When I told him my name, and that I had been told to call about criminal charges against me, he was able find a file and to quote the last 4 digits of my social and told me.
He said I had defaulted on a payday loan over the internet to Cash Advance USA. When I told him I had never gotten a loan from there he asked if I could remember everything I had done for the last 2 to 7 years, stating that the defaulted loan had been taken out somewhere during that time frame. I told him that could remember very well, and I know I have never done business with this complany. I asked for a specific date and time, and he said he would not give that information, stating he did not have access to it.
He said the sheriff's department would come to my job and arrest me, and told me to find someone that would be willing to bail me out of jail. He said that I would have to tell my story to the Judge and Jury. I again told him I had never done business with Cash Advance USA, and had know idea what he was talking about. He told me that the charges were going to be downloaded to my State's Attorneys and that my state had zero tolerance for this kind of theft, and I had better get a lawyer or be prepared to spend time in jail..
He then told me he had the right to contact my employer and inform them of the charges, and told "I will tell them what you have done!" I asked how he could be filing charges against me, but not know the dates and times of the loans, I told him all of that would have to be in the Affidavit being sent to the State for review, and that evidence would also have to show the times and dates...at this point he said he was downloading the charges to my state and I would be arrested..then hung up the phone.

Hello, please LOGIN
If new to Scutwork, please REGISTER first
Review Summary
Add your own Review!
Hours are very reasonable. As an intern you are scheduled to work almost entirely daytime hours, typically 6am to 6pm. As a second year, you cover the house at night, which I really enjoy, and are off almost every weekend. Third years as I understand work primarily in the office. Work hours are between 65-70/week as an intern, around 60 hours/week as a second year, and I understand it to be slightly less as a third year.As a general rule, we work well as a team together, upper levels help the interns with admissions. Really enjoy being here, cannot stress how glad I am that I matched here!
Faculty here are one of the/if not the best part of the program. They are friendly and supportive, enjoy teaching and working with us. I have been to several of their houses, and they create a very positive atmosphere for learning. They are also very knowledgeable and well respected both locally, at the state level, and nationally.
I absolutely love working with my fellow residents, we have hang outs outside of work often, and holiday parties, as well as our program sponsored 2 day off work retreat.
I am married with 3 kids as well as many pets and a moderate amount of land, and find I have a good balance of time to spend with my wife and kids. My wife is also very happy with the program and how she is treated both by other residents/their families and their attendings. She is also very satisfied with the amount of time I get at home. On top of all of this, I still squeeze in time for a couple of my most valued hobbies.
Am absolutely thrilled with this program! A friendly environment with outstanding attendings, lots of procedures, and a good balance of work and fun. I am so glad that I matched here!
As a 1st year: there are multiple different services that we rotate through as 1st years - medicine, peds, ob, ED, surgery, radiology, night float. Hours are 7 am - 5:30 pm on OB, Peds, ED; 8-9 am - 5:30 on radiology & surgery; 5:30 pm - 4 am on night float (4-5 nights/week) and variable on the medicine service - occasionally 5-6 am but at least from 7 am to 6 pm. Sometimes on medicine you can end up staying a little later, but the max number of days this can happen per week is 3. It's almost mathematically impossible to go over 80 hours/week averaged over a month. I can imagine having a really, really bad week that you hit 80 hours (I never did in my entire first year), but it just never happens 4 weeks in a row. There is no over-night call as a 1st year - the longest scheduled shift is 14 hours. As a 1st year you are the main workforce - you do the admissions and write notes on your patients. The senior residents have to see your admissions as well and supervise the orders and your note & write their own note. Things that some people would consider "scutwork" are things that are our responsibility as house docs - we have to pull the central lines, as nurses cannot do this, we do death pronouncements, and our program gets reimbursed for doing restraint checks in the BH unit. The "scutwork" that I'm doing here as a house doc is nothing compared to what I did as a medical student or as a surgical intern at another program.
The faculty here are great - they are all very enthusiastic and available for questions all hours of the day & night. I have all of their cell phone contacts and text questions or concerns any time. Different faculty have different strengths, but they are all very experienced as Family physicians. Teaching occurs all the time - when you check out patients at the office or for admissions, even sometimes in the middle of the night when you just want to go back to sleep. There is particular attention paid to evidence-based medicine guidelines. We have 9 hours of didactic teaching every week, 4 hours of which are specifically geared to your PG year level.
We are a fairly large program - 24 residents. Each PGY class bonds very quickly and there is an overnight retreat every year for each class. There are definitely people you bond more with, but there is an environment of respect that rules all our interactions. Attendings expect a lot out of us, but are again always available. I have come to view several of my attendings as friends rather than bosses, and the feeling is mutual.
We have several Canadians in the program and graduates of foreign medical schools, but all our residents are native English speakers and you'd have a hard time picking out foreign grads from american med school grads.
I definitely have a life outside of work - as 1st years, we have about 1 golden weekend a month, otherwise you have 1 day off a week. As 2nd years you have many more weekends off, but we have the opportunity for paid moonlighting on the weekend. 3rd years have most weekends off.
This is not an easy program - we work hard while we are at work, but the hours are very manageable. We have a very well rounded program and residents are prepared for diverse jobs from 100 %outpatient providers to 100% hospitalist, as well as ED work, and some OB. I would rank this program #1 if I had to choose again (actually ranked it #2 the first time around!)
My typical day begins around 7am and ends around 5:30pm. The workload keeps you busy throughout the day, so you are not bored and are always learning. Its about 50-65 hours per week. The program works very hard not to violate work hours. Always have at least one day off per week and always have at least one full weekend off per month. Due to the work hour restrictions, when you are at work you are pretty busy.
There are noon conferences on a variety of topics everyday over lunch and one full afternoon per week is dedicated to didactic education. Teaching takes place at any and all opportunities. The faculty is always available for any questions or concerns about patients. They also love their jobs and love to teach residents. The faculty is all very knowledgable overall about all topics and they each have their specialties as well.
Every week there is one afternoon where each year group gets together to learn and catch up. All the residents get along really well. There is great teamwork, everyone is always willing to pitch in. There is life outside work, and the residents often get together for movies, bowling, trivia, etc...The hospital and clinic are both great environments. A small percentage of foreign medical graduates are in the program, they are selected carefully and are outstanding candidates.
This program is outstanding in almost every way. The faculty is always willing to be there or stand up for residents anytime. There is great pediatric experience with coverage of all of Edgewood hospital and rotations at Cinci Childrens. Many opportunities for procedures all over the hospital. Code blue team for hospital. Busy inpatient medicine service. Well rounded OB experience. OB and Sports medicine fellowships available. I would without question choose this progam again. All of the residents come out of the program with a strong knowledge base and the ability to practice in any situation from ED, to outpatient, to laborists, to hospitalists.
Work hours as an intern were consistently 75-80 hours a week minimum, with frequent violations. I was told that I was not allowed to turn my pager off on off-days. Senior residents frequently would not allow the interns to leave at their scheduled times and this led to significant fatigue. Interns would end up staying 2-3 hours over per shift, which was always 11-16 hours to start with. Even when scheduled for a clinic rotation, expect to be on call at least once a week and more if other interns have visa issues and are gone for weeks to months at a time. My workload contained a great deal of scutwork, such as pulling central lines because nurses wouldn't perform this task and checking restraints on psych patients at all hours. I received very limited help from senior residents. Expect to do all admissions and see all patients (regardless of the number) if you are the only intern on. Senior residents typically sit and watch tv while they scut you out.
Faculty was typically deficient techically with some individual exceptions. Many times I was told information that was contradicted in established literature. Faculty, including the program director could be very hostile at times. Didactics were typically average.
There was a significant amount of hostility towards the interns; it was palpable. There was also a significant amount of favortism present in this program, and this created even greater disparities in treatment of residents. Work area was adequate. Significant percentage of foreign graduates, with some language barriers. I was unable to participate in my private life in any significant manner as my schedule was so erratic.
The hands on experience at this program is respectible, but the price paid in program violations, hostile environment and lack of technical strength is difficult to justify. This program often "ruled by fear" and this made for a very stressful intern year. It is really a shame, because this was a top notch program in years past.
I'm now in my second year at St. Elizabeth's Family Practice. Our schedules changed durastically in the past year...this was a consequence of our program director bringing our hours up to par with the soon-to-be-inforced 16-hour work limit within the present 80-hr work week. We went from the interns working 60-75/week last year to now having our interns work 50-65 hours. They don't take overnight call for the majority of the year. During the final 4 months of the year, they'll do some night float (which will be 1-2 weeks/month of 5p-7a call every other night....we tried this in July with upper levels and we loved it!). In the meantime, the interns get experience by doing a 5-10 pm shift 1-2x/wk. The typical day on medicine is 6-7 am till 5-6 pm. On peds or OB, it's 7a-5:30p. Interns work 2-3 weekends a month, but it's one Sat here, both days the next, and the Sun the 3rd (for example). So not bad. 2nd years work a lot of outpatient office rotations...usually 8-9 am starts till 5 pm. We also do 2-3 nights in house a week for most months....some of that is 5-10 shifts and some is 10p-7a shifts. We average 4 overnight calls a month. We do a majority of the housework because we've got experience, knowledge, and now more energy after a laid-back first year! 3rd year is gorgeous. You do one overnight call a month! And you pick up 4 5p-10p shifts the whole year. You run the medicine service 7-10 weeks of the year (babysitting interns is fun) and most of your other time is spent in the office or on elective. Moonlighting is a whole other ballgame....you pick up extra weekend shifts as 2nd or 3rd years....and get paid extra! It's like picking up shifts outside the hospital in an ER at other programs...but here your malpractice is covered, you already know the staff, and you're working with friends!
Our faculty loves to teach. I personally have tempted the Gods and called them late at night and they're happy to help instruct or bounch ideas off of. They're looking to hire another staff in the next year, but they cover the job well in the meantime.
We get hands on instruction during medicine rounds, office visits, and in FOCUS (a 4-hr didactic session we do once a week with the other 7 members of our class). We also have noon conference daily...the room is next to the cafeteria (where we never ever ever pay for food...which is outstanding after being treated like crap as a med student).
I love my classmates. We have a high proportion of singles (or no kids) in my class so we go out a good amount (or take turns hosting grill out or game night). We do a retreat every year as a class that the office pays for (2 days...ropes courses are fun...play games and goof off). Some classes have more families with kids, and they do playdates or other activities that focus less on alcohol, so that's nice as well.
We get free tickets to Bengals and Reds games (not for the staff or faculty...just for residents!) and they're great seats. 20 or so rows behing the goal at Bengals, and 2nd row of 2nd tier at Reds games! So we take advantage of that. And I personally have managed to find a significant other after starting up here despite my crazy schedule (which was the old intern schedule) last year. So that's a big plus :)
We are not FMG-haters. We currently have 7 out of 28 residents. We rank good people. We are all for applicants with good grades, good schools, and good connections. But we don't rank people who can't relate to patients and other residents. And we want people who are fun to hang out with. So we rank based on those criteria more than where you trained. As someone who used to fear FMG's (my med school's family med program had terrible ones...it scarred me), I've had my mind changed since coming here!
I ranked this program #1 and to this date I don't regret it. I love the staff here. Karen, Arin, and Linda in the front office are my unofficial moms up here. The office is going through changes (we'll have Epic running as of January!) but everyone is working to make it a pleasant experience.
Drawbacks used to be the crappy schedule all 3 years. Now it's more 2nd year being painful....but that's not all bad. First year now eases you in to being a doctor. And 3rd year provides a lot of time for finding a job and polishing off your technique.
Pluses include the focus on practice-management. We have an office manager who pairs with our program director to teach office management throughout your training. First year, you learn to code your office visits. It sounds scary, but it's so easy once you do it for a few months! Then you learn about coding hospital visits. Then during 3rd year they teach you how to set up a practice, find a job, read a contract, etc. That's something a lot of programs can't or don't offer.
We also have hired a clinical pharmacist this past year who spends 4-5 half days in our office and is available by phone whenever we need her. She types up med cheatsheets, goes thru messages and charts to find medicine issues or improvements, and gives advice on difficult patients. We also have an office manager who helps patients get set up for med assistance programs, which is wonderful.
And we have a sports medicine track that's getting bigger. We're learning to focus your rotation schedule to allow coverage of local football or basketball games (we cover 2 high schools and one college). We go to conferences in 2nd and 3rd year (covered by the hospital!). We will soon have a fellowship set up (working on it every day!). And we do sports med lunches and journal club. We continue to find more opportunities every day. And our ortho and sports med physicians are wonderful and love to teach. We've had recent grads do fellowships in the area as well.
Our program has filled up the local fp offices for the past 30-odd years with our graduates. It's amazing the respect they yield in the community. People don't leave here in need of more education but they leave with an ability to respect ongoing education and learn how to fit it into their life. I can't imagine not feeling confident when I finish in 18 months.
Our hospital is private. So we don't do as much indigent work as university programs. It's also got Magnet Nursing Status...which means it's where nurses wanna work. That's a big plus, because we get the best and brightest! We don't even have LPNs here...just RN and above! With CNAs around to help keep them sane. It's great. Our Labor & Delivery is big and will be expanding soon thanks to the recent purchase of 2 other hospital in the area (St. Lukes)...we will expand L&D and also go to a level 3 NICU.
No program is without issues. And no resident goes thru residency without some strife. But they make you better. I've had tough times in the past 18 months, but I love my program. I'm proud to say I'm from my program. And no, I wouldn't change my rank list today if I had the option.
I would happily welcome any questions about this program. Ask away!

MFPD board secretary files suit seeking to have Klund removed from April ballot
Klund owed county $295.15; taxes were paid on Monday
Mike Anthony
Executive Editor
write the author
Michael Klund
January 30, 2013 -
Mehlville Fire Protection District Board of Directors Secretary Ed Ryan filed suit this week against Michael Klund and the county Board of Election Commissioners that seeks to have Klund removed from the April 2 election ballot.
Klund, of Lemay, filed Jan. 15 to challenge Ryan, of Concord, in the April election for a Board of Directors seat. Ryan, first elected in April 2007, is seeking a second six-year term on the fire board.
In the lawsuit, filed Monday, Ryan contends Klund is not qualified to be a candidate in the April election because "upon information and belief, defendant Klund has not paid his St. Louis County personal property taxes for the year 2012, which were due on or before Dec. 31, 2012."
Klund had owed $295.15 — $283.69 in personal property tax, $5.67 in interest and $5.79 in penalties — for 2012, according to the county Department of Revenue's website. The $295.15 was paid Monday, according to the website.
Ed Ryan
Since 2002, according to the department's website, Klund has paid his personal property taxes on time twice — in 2005 and 2006.
Ryan's lawsuit cites Missouri Statute 115.526.1, which "authorizes plaintiff to challenge the declaration of candidacy and qualifications of defendant Klund to seek or hold the office of district director or to appear on the ballot for such office."
The lawsuit also cites Missouri Statute 115.342, which states, "Any person who files as a candidate for election to a public office shall be disqualified from participation in the election for which the candidate has filed (if) such person is delinquent in the payment of any ... personal property taxes.
"Similarly, Section 71.005 RSMo. provides that '(n)o person shall be a candidate for municipal office unless such person complies with the provisions of Section 115.346, regarding payment of municipal taxes or user fees.'"
Ryan's lawsuit asks:
"That plaintiff be allowed to show proof to the court that defendant Klund is not qualified to be a candidate for or to serve as a director of the Mehlville Fire Protection District under Sections 115.346 and 71.005 RSMo."
"That the court order the appointment of a special process server and the immediate issuance for service of this petition upon defendant Klund."
"That the court enter an order scheduling a hearing and permitting plaintiff to produce his proof as to the personal property tax status of defendant Klund and his qualifications to hold office."
"That this court enter an order removing candidate Michael Klund from the ballot for April 2, 2013."
"That the court award plaintiff Ryan his costs and reasonable attorney fees for the prosecution of this action ..."
Ryan is represented by attorney Mathew Hoffman, who also serves as legal counsel for the fire district.
Klund told the Call Monday he had not seen the lawsuit.
"I have to look into it. I don't know what's going on with that," he said. "... I have no idea what they would be talking about. I have to see what's going on."
Shortly after Klund's conversation with the Call, the county Department of Revenue's website showed his personal property taxes for 2012 had been paid.

Holsteins are the top American dairy cows because of their ability to produce large amounts of milk.
Nothing says country quite like that pattern of blotchy
black spots on a white background. The familiar pattern of
Holstein cows is even used by Gateway Computers' boxes to
help emphasize the company's Midwestern roots. But lurking
in that apparently benign pattern is a hidden agenda:
Holsteins have been taking over the United States.
According to U.S. Department of Agriculture figures Holsteins are the top American dairy cows, 93
percent of all American dairy cows (more than 8 million
head) are Holstein. The breed's dominance comes basically
from being bred into freaks of nature, says Drew Conroy, an
associate professor of applied animal science at the
University of New Hampshire. A cow needs about 3,000 pounds
of milk to successfully raise a calf. A Holstein holds the
world record for milk production: 60,380 pounds of milk in
one year, 20 times the natural amount.
The megamilk production has negative effects on the
Holsteins and other breeds of cows. The Holsteins generally
wear out after 2.5 lactations (around four years), much
sooner than other breeds. Holsteins also already have the
narrowest genetic pool of any cattle breed, and as
inbreeding for maximum milk production continues, the
danger of genetic maladies in the breed increases. Other
dairy breeds' population numbers are now so small, breeders
worry that there aren't enough left to keep a viable
genetic pool.
Conroy says the solution lies not in trying to force large
dairy operations to diversify, but getting more people to
participate in food production and raise other breeds
beside the Holstein. "In my classes, I ask, 'How many of
you like industrial farming?' And no hands go up. Then I
ask, 'How many of you produce any of your own food?' And no
hands go up."

Women's Basketball Falls To Lehigh On 3-Pointer In Final Seconds
Feb. 8, 2014
BALTIMORE - Lehigh hit a 3-pointer with three less than six seconds remaining to escape Reitz Arena with a 50-47 victory over the Loyola University Maryland women's basketball team Saturday afternoon.
Freshman Lisa Mirarchi paced the Greyhounds (5-18, 2-10 Patriot League) with nine points and seven rebounds, while Tiffany Padgett, Nai Brown and Jeneh Perry each added eight points apiece.
Loyola outshot the Mountain Hawks 31-27 percent, while Lehigh held a 52-32 advantage in rebounds.
In the first three minutes of action, neither team found offensive momentum, as the Greyhounds and Mountain Hawks combined for 0-for-8 from the floor. Freshman Lauren Daugherty scored the first two points of the contest, going 2-2 from the charity stripe with 16:47 remaining in the first half.
Lehigh (11-11, 4-7 PL) took the lead on a Sarah Williams jumper from behind the arc, 4-2, maintaining the advantage for over eight minutes.
During Loyola's second fast break of the half, Mirarchi gave the Greyhounds a one-point advantage, 18-17, before the Mountain Hawks countered with their own jumper, 19-18. Padgett put the Greyhounds back on top moments later with a pair of free-throw points, 20-19. Loyola went on to hold Lehigh scoreless on its next offensive possession, leading the way for a Nneka Offodile jumper, 22-19, to extend the Greyhound lead. The Mountain Hawks called a timeout with 27 seconds remaining, ultimately taking advantage of the time on the shot clock and pulling within one before the half.
Due to foul trouble, the two teams went to the line a combined 24 times in the first 20 minutes. The Greyhounds scored eight of their 22 points from the line, finding solace in the double bonus.
Loyola's defense came out strong in the second half, taking the lead, 28-25, after a pair of Lehigh turnovers and two sets of fast break points by Mirarchi and Offodile. The Greyhounds went on to lead by as much as four points, 31-27, after a Nicole Krusen three-point field goal from the left wing.
Over the next four and a half minutes, Lehigh used an 8-1 run to also pull away with a four-point lead, 36-32, but Brown wouldn't allow it for long. The junior connected a three-point basket to pull the Greyhounds within one with just over eight minutes to play.
Padgett and Perry went on to score the next five points, once again knotting the contest for the third time. The two teams traded free throws and layups, tying the score two more times before the final buzzer.
With 30 seconds remaining, Mirarchi scored the final basket for the Greyhounds, 47-47, before Lehigh's Elizabeth Jordan found her downtown success with five seconds remaining.
Elizabeth Sharlow led all players with 11 points, while Kerry Kinek had a game-high 14 rebounds for the Mountain Hawks (11-11, 4-7).
In total, the game contained 13 lead changes and five tied scores.
The Greyhounds will return to action on Wednesday when it hosts Lafayette College in Reitz Arena at 5 p.m.
