The mission of the Agriculture Office is to assist the agriculture professors and staff in the general operation of the department. The office seeks success through a focus on appearance, student recruitment, teamwork, attention to detail, and providing information about the Agriculture department.
Student workers are involved in all phases of office work which include organizing the office and maintaining records and reports. Office assistants are often assigned to manage projects that benefit faculty and students in various areas, including technology.
The largest project each year is the FFA Workshop. Judging materials are prepared and distributed to nearly 2,000 FFA members who attend this workshop. The office assistants are available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to assist other students with computer programs such as Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The office assistants also schedule and give tours of the agriculture department to prospective students.
If you are interested in a tour or more information, please call (417)-690-3360
The College of the Ozarks beef herd is dispersed on seven locations within a 24-mile radius of the main campus. The farms include the Winfrey place located near Reed Springs, the Stewart farm located near highway 76, the Belt and Clevenger farms located east of the Hog Farm, the Holliday farm located west of the Hog Farm, the Hog Farm itself, and on campus.
The main function of the beef farms is to provide students with the knowledge and experience of a working beef cattle operation. Approximately 7 to 9 students work at the beef farms. There are approximately 200 head of registered and commercial Polled Hereford and Angus beef cattle on the farms, as well as crossbred cattle comprised of these breeds.
Students are involved in all phases of beef production. Their responsibilities include animal health, nutrition, breeding, and merchandising as well as facility maintenance and forage production.
A biennial auction is held at the College's on-campus Sale Barn during the fall of the odd years. Students are responsible for all aspects of the sale. They help to create the sale catalog and with advertising,
auctioneering, serving as ring men, clerking, fitting, loading, and selection. Students auction off around 60 lots of the College's beef cattle including cow-calf pairs, bred and open heifers, and cows and bulls. Some bulls are sold on private treaty arrangements. The Processing Plant also utilizes other beef animals for campus purposes. The beef farms keep their own heifers as replacement stock and for sale at the auction.
The Farmer's Market will be closed during summer 2017 while construction is completed on the Hook Activity Center.
The Friday Farmers Market began in the summer of 2013 and has become a great success. The theme is "All Things Student Made and Grown." It is located in the sale barn across from the dairy. Besides the many fruits and vegetables from our garden, it has C of O; milk, meats, bedding plants, hanging baskets, Edward's Mill products, Fruitcake and Jelly Kitchen items, Stained Glass, breads, and Keeter Center goodies (granola, biscotti, honey-pear dressing, lodge chips). In the future, it will incorporate the honey from the School of the Ozarks Lab School bee project. Approximately 8-12 students are involved in this work station that also helps with the garden and dairy.The Garden is a joint effort with the Agriculture, Landscaping, Hotel and Restaruant Management, Farmers Market, and Keeter Center departments. It is of great benefit educationally and for our dining customers.
The College of the Ozarks Dairy Farm is located on campus. This location assists in not only the education of Agriculture students, but also the informing of the many tourists and visitors to campus.
The Dairy milks approximately 50-60 registered Holstein, Jersey and Guernsey cows. The Holsteins comprise about 85% of the herd. Heifers are raised as replacements and for consignment sales, and the bulls are sold.
There are typically 30-36 students assigned to the Dairy for their work station. Student activities cover everything found on a working dairy including feeding, haying, milking, ensiling, vaccinations, calving, cleaning, general farm maintenance, etc.
The Dairy processes and bottles milk to furnish the College's needs. The milk is also sold to faculty, staff, students and at the Farmers Market. Through these activities students are expected to acquire knowledge in nutrition, health, reproductive physiology, and farm management.
The Feed Mill is a service area for the Agriculture department. It is located on the campus next to the dairy. Usually 4 to 5 students work at this location.
The primary functions of the Feed Mill are making and delivering high quality feed for the College's livestock production units. The feed mill also has a six ton feed delivery truck for transporting the finished product to the various farms. Students learn about the feed making process by operating machinery, grinding corn, rolling grain, mixing rations for feed, delivering feed, and keeping the feed mill clean and organized.
Students also learn about crops, control inventory, keep accurate records, represent the College well when purchasing ingredients and supplies, and aim to be service oriented.
The College of the Ozarks Hog Farm is located 6 miles from campus on Highway BB south of Hollister, Missouri. The farm is 154 acres and specializes in the production of quality Hybrid and Registered Hampshire hogs. One of the beef farm operations also utilizes a majority portion of the hog farm for a cow-calf operation, pasture grazing, and forage production.
The purpose of the Hog Farm is to provide students with the proper skills and work experiences associated with managing and working with swine. Students are active participants in every aspect of the production including the marketing, record keeping, herd health, breeding program, farm maintenance, etc., of the operation. Generally 5 to 7 students are involved at this workstation.
The Hog Farm is primarily a farrow to finish arrangement that has 20-25 sows. Farrowing and a cold weather piglet nursery occur in a confinement arrangement while all other aspects of the operation take place outdoors. The majority of the hogs are utilized by the College's Processing Plant while others are marketed to the public in the form of meat at the Farmers Market, special occasions cooking and freezing, show projects, and as herd builders.
The College of the Ozarks Horticulture Lab, Orchard, and Garden are utilized in many courses to allow students opportunities for hands on experience with horticultural crops and production practices.
The Tissue Culture Laboratory functions as a modern facility for micro-propagation of a variety of horticultural crops. Students work with a variety of methodologies and media compositions to learn and experience the effectiveness and usefulness of micro-propagation to the horticultural industry.
The Orchard contains a variety of fruit crops as well as seasonal plantings of vegetable crops providing students with additional learning opportunities. Through these work areas students are exposed and trained in propagation, pruning, pest management, irrigation, weed control, fertilization, soil testing and preparation, quality control, and harvesting. The College also maintains honeybees for the purpose of pollination as well as exposing students to the importance of insect pollinators to the agricultural industry.
The College of the Ozarks Processing Plant has typically 11-12 student workers. Students are taught, through hands on experience, every phase of the meat industry from harvest to finished product.
The Processing Plant, which is USDA inspected, harvests approximately 250-300 hogs and 10-24 beef cattle annually. Carcasses are fabricated into wholesale and retail cuts. The Plant also has a line of fully cooked and heat treated products, such as our smoked hams, smoked bacon, smoked pork chops, smoked pork ribs, snack sticks, summer sausage, smoked ham hocks, smoked turkey, beef jerky, bologna, cottage bacon, and smoked beef briskets. Finished meat products are sold and provided for the College's Pearl Rogers Dining Hall, Dobyns Dining Room at the Keeter Center, Farmers Market, and Fruit Cake and Jelly Kitchen.
The Agronomy Workstation is tasked with being good stewards of the land that God has entrusted to the college. In Psalms 104:14, we are told "God makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for man to cultivate- bringing forth food from the earth." And in Psalms 115:16 we are told "The highest heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth he has given to man."
We employ environmentally sustainable practices such as no-till planting, use of cover crops, soil testing and nutrient budgeting. We have also recently implemented the Biblical principle of a "Sabbath of the Land". Our fields are set up on a rotation where every seventh year a field is allowed to rest. We do not plant or harvest the land in the Sabbath year. We are honored to be able to provide quality forages for our beef and dairy farms while doing our best to be economically, environmentally sustainable.

The Rotunda in Kingston was evacuated after an Odeon cinema sign caught fire this evening.
Firefighters were called to the Clarence Street leisure complex at 8pm.
The building was emptied while fire crews dowsed flames coming from the first "O" in the cinema sign on the outside of the building facing Cromwell Road.
Cromwell Road was also briefly closed.
Passer by David Blackmore witnessed the evacuation.
He said: "It was absolutley heaving and there were a lot of people hanging around the station and outside the Rotunda.
"I could see a cherry picker from a fire engine rising as a police officer directed traffic around it.
"The vast majority of people had no idea what was going on. Many had their mobile phones out and were posting pictures onto social media sites trying to establish what was going on."
Twitter user @bilaal_lone posted a video of the firefighters putting out the fire, saying: "Only in Kingston does the Odeon sign set alight."
The fire was extinguished at about 9pm. The Rotunda and Cromwell Road have both since reopened.
Kingston fire station's green watch manager Ian Frame said: "The sign had short circuited and it caught fire to the plastic casing.
"The building was fully evacuated, power to the sign was isolated and the fire extinguished.
"The only delay was making sure the power was isolated and that nothing fell on passers by below."

Topic: fibrosis and capcitabine
hi everyone,
we have been away for the last couple of weeks which was great - now we are back and faced with some decisions.
This am we had a meeting with my Dad's oncologist. he told us that my Dad's platelets were too low (50) to continue with gemcitabine and carboplatin. he wants my Dad to have a lumbar puncture this wk - he thinks my Dad could have fibrosis in his bone marrow. Has anyone else had this problem?
He has said that if my Dad wants to continue with chemo that he will have to switch to a drug which will not affect the bone marrow - he is suggesting capcitabine. However he has warned us that capcitabine "targets the gut lining" and it is likely that my Dad could suffer bad diarrhoea with it. has anyone else experienced this problem with capcitabine?
Any info/experiences much appreciated.

About this font family
Tosca is a very elegant and decorative typeface with 730 glyphs.
I put a second set of capital letters in the places of the smallcaps. So just type the word in lowercase, then select the first letter and convert it to smallcap in the OpenType menu. I also give you a ton of ligatures that can be accessed via OpenType. I am slowly learning to use these OpenType features, it is fun, but it is a lot of work.

The New York Times, which is one of the largest dailies in the US, published in the New York City and has a circulation of over 1 million published an article named "Creationism, Minus a Young Earth, Emerges in the Islamic World" on November 3, 2009. The article talked about Mr. Adnan Oktar's Atlas of Creation and the global impact of his anti-Darwinist activities. In the article in question, it is emphasized that the number of people who do not believe in Darwinism increased and the theory of evolution is questioned more among the students:
Creationism is growing in the Muslim world, from Turkey to Pakistan to Indonesia, international academics said last month as they gathered here to discuss the topic… More and more seem to be joInIng the ranks of the…old-Earth creatIonIsts. They quarrel with…biologists, insisting that life is the creation of God, not the happenstance consequence of random occurrences.

Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the Park
Not a creature was stirring---Great American was dark.
The rotation was set by the FO with care
In hopes that the "Missile" soon would be there.
The "Jock" he was nestled, with laptop in bed
While sights of relievers plum danced thru his head.
Shin-Soo Choo in his Reds cap, and I in mine, tooz,
Had just settled down for a post (Winter) meetings snooze.
When out on the field there arose such a clatter
I sprang from my couch to see what was the matter.
Out of the tunnel I flew in a flash
Tore my pajamas and my holiday sash.
The infield a blanket of new fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day and made the park glow.
When what to my wandering eyes should appear
But a Reds Caravan and a shipment of beer!
With a Reds-Suited driver at the head of the party
I knew in a moment it must be St. Marty.
More rapid than cheetahs the players they came
And he whistled and shouted and called them by name!
Now Hanigan, Now Devin, Now Corky for sure!
On Cueto, On Latos, on Arroyo, Lecure.
From the top of the stacks, from the top of the wall,
They came dashingly, dashingly, dashingly all!
As dependable fireman they answered the bell
And they flew to St. Marty to see what he'd tell.
So out of the tunnel these players they flew
To the Reds Caravan and the shipment of brew!
And then in a twinkling I saw flashes of white
That came from on high and lit up the dark night.
As we drew close in wonder, and turned 'round our heads,
Out climbed the poofy-haired Voice of the Reds.
He was dressed like a Santa from head to his foot
But his clothes were all spotless, and void of all soot.
A bundle of presents he had in his truck,
He was filled with the spirit---no negative schmuck.
He spoke not a word but went straight to his cheer.
Filling their mugs from his keg full of beer.
Then came a signal and as someone yelled "Boogy"
From his bag full of presents, he pulled out a "loogy"!
Then he sprang to his "sleigh" to his "team" gave a whistle
Then headed to "Cuba," to visit the "Missile".
But I heard him exclaim 'ere away that he sped
That 2013 is the year of the Red.

As you can tell, my brain never stops thinking about fashion! I've been craving a leopard print tote…bad! You'd really be surprised at the amount of super ridiculously expensive leopard print designer bags there are out there. As I was researching, I found some in the thousands! This M Z Wallace 'Grace' Tote is $425 at Nordstrom; not too bad compared to some of the others, but it's still a "Bank Breaker" for me!
Now, take a look at the 'SCHMUTZLER' handbag from Aldo, which is on sale for $27.98! That's a lot better for my budget! I think I'm ordering this bad boy!

2012 Highlights from Fair Trade USA
Last year, 2012, was a year of momentum, innovation, and growth for Fair Trade. We saw significant growth in key categories such as coffee, produce and quinoa. With imports at an all time high, more farmers and workers earned more community development premiums than ever before (at $32 million!). Groups like the Asociación de Pequeños Productores de Talamanca used premiums from their banana sales to buy a tractor for the community. CECANOR, a co-op in Peru elected to provide health, education and technical assistance programs to its female members and their families. While there is still much work to be done, we'd like to take a moment to reflect on the year behind us, and to use it as momentum as we continue through the second half 2013.
Here are some highlights from our 2012 Almanac:
Coffee saw amazing growth in 2012, with imports reaching an all-time high. 163 million pounds were imported into the United States and Canada, representing an 18% increase since 2011. We also welcomed 60 new producers and importer partners, and launched 50 new Fair Trade Certified coffee products together with our partners. This growth generated an additional $32 million in Community Development Premiums back to Fair Trade coffee co-ops across the globe.
In 2012 we certified 10 new products – asparagus, cantaloupe, eggplant, honeydew, mini watermelon, watermelon, peaches, table grapes, tomatoes, and zucchini. This resulted in a 58% increase in Fair Trade Certified product imports and a 60% increase in Community Development Premiums development earned by farming communities (over $2.8 million). From bell peppers (540% increase) to cucumbers (315% increase) to mangos (64% increase), produce certification is booming; it has never been easier for shoppers to choose socially and environmentally sustainable produce where they shop. Further, almost all new Fair Trade Certified produce items brought on in 2012 were also organic.
Imports of Fair Trade Certified quinoa were up 55% in 2012, resulting in $160k in premiums back to small-scale quinoa farmers in Bolivia. Through improved terms of trade, better, more stable prices, and the Fair Trade premium, Bolivian quinoa farmers are able to continue farming the land their families have survived on for hundreds of years, ensuring there is enough quinoa for all who want and need it. Learn more about how Fair Trade benefits quinoa farmers in this great piece by the Huffington Post.
Community Development Premiums
The phrase every purchase matters has never meant more. As more conscious consumers choose Fair Trade and vote with their dollar for a better world, more farmers and workers are able to earn more money and do their work with pride and dignity. As a result of this continued commitment, for first time ever Fair Trade Premiums have topped the $30 million mark at $37 million! Investments ranged from establishing health clinics and education opportunities, to implementing environmentally sustainable projects, and business management programs. One community in Northern Mexico even bought a school bus for the children of its farm workers!
Including More People
2012 was also a pivotal year for expanding the scope of the Fair Trade community. After launching Fair Trade for All in 2011, Fair Trade USA began working with coffee farm workers and independent smallholders, groups previously excluded from participating in Fair Trade, to begin their Fair Trade journey and earn certification. We're currently working with 12 pilot farms, representing 4,300 farmers and farm workers in Latin America, Asia and Africa. Closer to home, the Fair Trade community is also growing. Fair Trade Campaigns, the grassroots movement that works with Fair Trade USA, FLO and IMO, now boasts a total of 76 Towns and 62 Colleges & Universities promoting Fair Trade products at the local level. This translates to a 21% increase in community participation in 2012.
Looking Ahead
We are proud of the strides we have made, together with our producer and business partners, and are committed to working hard to further increase the scope, impact and relevancy of Fair Trade for everyone in the supply chain. As our 15th anniversary approaches (October 2012), we look forward to continuing this momentum as we work collaboratively toward a world where all trade is fair.

My understanding is that if I update to IE8 I won't be able to retain IE7 and the IE7 rendering mode in IE8 isn't exact. I want my sites to appear as I intend in both. Anyone know how I can run both IE7 and IE8 on the same machine? Do I need a virtual machine? If so, where can I get one (preferably for free) or at least what terms should I google?
(If there's a better section of these forums for posting this question, just lemme know!)
Thanks so much!James
Yes there is a better section and possibly: Computer Hardware and Software
Though a virtual machine should work I suggest you call a MOD and they'll move this post.
I moved the thread to web design as we often get browser questions here.:)
The IE7 rendering on IE8 is not exact and there are a few bugs and differences but most of the time it will give you a rough idea.
You can use ietester to test multiple IE's if you don't want to run a virtual machine. I use it all the time. It's a little unstable but works very well most of the time and is good if you want to check sites locally. I wouldn't use t for on-line browsing unless it's a site that you know.
There is also another collection here although I haven't tried it.
IETester doesn't work well for me. It crashes about every 5 minutes. But then again, I'm using it in a virtual environment on the Mac. From what I've heard, it's much more robust an application running outside virtual environments.
This is a nice article that summarises most of the options you have. (many of them free)
It crashes quite a lot since I started using IE8 for real but when IE7 was the real version it hardly ever crashed.
I have parallels on my mac but haven't tested ietester on there (not that I want to anyway). I have windows 7 running under parallels with IE8 and XP with IE7. (I have vista on my laptop so manage to be able to test most things locally :))
I have Windows XP and am running IE6 natively. All the other versions I'm testing via IETester or Spoon. The latter doesn't even let me test anymore. Something with NET application needing to be installed. Weirdness. I haven't had the nerve or time to sort that out, so I'm stuck with IETester for the moment.
At some point it might really make sense to buy a cheap, used laptop just for testing purposes that runs either XP or Vista.
I have two virtual machines on my Mac, one for IE8 and one for IE6. MultipleIE is also installed on the IE8 machine but it isn't 100% reliable. If I find it necessary, I may get a third with IE7 but until now, compatibility mode has worked fine. Litmus.com can also be an idea for final compatibility testing.
I use Parallels for the VMs. Also tried VMware which was excellent. VirtualBox(.org) is free and so is VMware Player.
FWIW, here are some links I've collected over time, some of which are mentioned above:
VirtualPC for Windows (free):http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=04d26402-3199-48a3-afa2-2dc0b40a73b6&displaylang=en
There is also a plug-in for Firefox which allows you to render in ie5.5, ie6, ie7 and ie8. It passes the site over to http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/index.php with the render type and url passed. The only downside with it is it isn't able to handle local development, so it has to be in a publicly available site. But it is an option.
I would not bother with virtual machines - it is definitely an overkill as there are better solutions.
I was told multiple times that setting "browser mode" to IE7 in IE8 developer tools is 100% equivalent to running IE7 natively.
Well they were wrong I'm afraid and there are some small differences as have been noted in a number of posts on these forums.
Hers is an example of an IE7 bug that only shows in IE7.

Pain Management Center
Call for more information:
Welcome to the Anesthesia Residency Program at Massachusetts General Hospital. Our residents receive unparalleled education in anesthesia, critical care and pain medicine. This education stems from interactions with expert faculty educators, world-class researchers, highly skilled surgeons who perform advanced surgical procedures, and outstanding co-residents.
Our residents can expect to advance in their professional development at an accelerated pace. We support our residents' varied academic interests and have a long history of successfully helping our residents attain their professional goals. Whether you hope to become an expert-level clinician, independently funded investigator, master educator or leader in health care, our program will help you attain success as you advance in your journey of professional development.
"The Massachusetts General Hospital Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine education team aims to cultivate clinical experts and future leaders in anesthesiology.The core of our educational mission is continuous improvement, where learning oriented individuals thrive by drawing on our incredible resources. These resources notably include our talented and diverse residents, a clinical experience which is uniquely available at Mass General and a world-class faculty. We complement our residents' clinical growth with rich opportunities in research, education, quality and safety, global health, administration and more, in order to shape and lead the future of anesthesiology."—Daniel Saddawi-Konefka, MD, MBA, Residency Program Director
"We approach teaching and learning with a mastery orientation, employing both strategy and effort. We approach all activities, including giving and receiving feedback, with a goal of improving one's performance. We use experimentally demonstrated strategies to improve teaching and learning. All cases provide opportunities for learning and improving. Failure is another opportunity to learn and improve."
—Keith Baker, MD, PhD, Vice Chair for Education
"Mass General is a leading center of anesthesia training. Our faculty is extraordinary and gives residents a broad breadth of experience in clinical care, education and quality management, as well as clinical, translational and basic research."
—Jeanine Wiener-Kronish, MD, anesthetist-in-chief
Anesthesia residents receive a rich clinical experience at Massachusetts General Hospital, where more than 48,000 inpatients are admitted annually. Challenging clinical cases include heart, lung and liver transplantation. Mass General is a Level I trauma center, providing residents with exposure to both penetrating and blunt trauma cases.
Residents are given a level of supervision appropriate to their ability, along with a caseload that provides a broad clinical experience. This quickly builds technical expertise, good judgment, leadership and decision-making skills, allowing residents to become confident in dealing with the most challenging perioperative issues.
In addition to caring for patients in the operating room, residents learn to manage perioperative cases in the intensive care unit (ICU), recovery room, neuroradiology suite, proton therapy center, MRI suite, endoscopy suite, and electrophysiology and cardiac catherization labs.
Much of the clinical teaching at Mass General takes place in or around the operating room, or, in the case of the ICU rotations, by the bedside. Emphasis is placed on case-related teaching in individual and small-group settings. Residents rotate to join clinical teams for one or two months at a time, in more than 12 specialty areas. Teams generally include two to four residents, occasionally a fellow in advanced training, and four or five attending staff who are specialists in that field. Residents benefit by being able to focus on one subspecialty at a time and training with expert faculty members. This deployment provides team members with the kind of small-group intimacy that would otherwise be difficult to foster in institutions as large as Mass General.
Early in their training, residents select a faculty advisor who will help them develop a long-term plan for career development. Upon completing the required rotations of the CA-2 year, residents find exceptional opportunities for advanced clinical training, both in residency and beyond. In the CA-3 year, residents are primarily focused on gaining experience with advanced and complex anesthetic assignments. Such challenges are available at Mass General in nearly all of the anesthetic subspecialties, including:
In addition, the department draws upon the resources of other Mass General departments, other Harvard-affiliated hospitals and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to arrange nontraditional or research fellowships for residents with special interests. Mass General has been selected by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a National Center for Infertility, largely because of the institution's outstanding Reproductive Endocrinology Unit. Mass General residents also may arrange an obstetrical anesthesia observership at several Harvard hospitals, including our partner, Brigham and Women's Hospital.
The Anesthesia Residency Program utilizes strong affiliation agreements with area medical centers, including Children's Hospital Boston, West Roxbury VA, Massachusetts Eye and Ear and the Shriner's Burn Institute, to build upon our extensive specialty clinical training opportunities within Mass General. Finally, a multitude of international rotation opportunities exist for interested trainees. Recent international rotations have taken residents to countries including Uganda, the Philippines, Vietnam, Ethiopia and Peru.
At Mass General, each resident begins with a unique month of tutorial, designed to make the introduction to the field of anesthesia smooth and successful.
During the tutorial month, two staff members are assigned to each resident. Each staff member works one-on-one with the resident separately for two weeks. This format provides a continuity of learning that allows the resident to grow quickly without having to repeat steps. New residents who are being tutored are given first choice of cases from the entire operating room schedule, ensuring that residents work on cases that match their ability level and present specific management issues.
Residents start in small groups at staggered times during the summer months, usually four at a time. This format, in conjunction with giving the tutorial staff first choice of cases, allows the tutor/tutee to take part in operating room cases that are appropriate to teach the elementary skills of anesthesia.
During the tutorial month, residents are also provided with a basic lecture each afternoon, a weeklong simulator course and a day at the Harvard Center for Medical Simulation. Tutorial provides a gentle introduction to the field of anesthesia for new residents and prepares them to provide a simple anesthetic to a healthy patient in a safe manner. This tutorial is the foundation on which the resident will build for the next three years.
The Center for Medical Simulation (CMS) is located in Charlestown, just across the bridge from Mass General. While the center has supported the educational efforts of the Harvard Anesthesia Training Programs for many years, the leadership of the CMS and most of its faculty are members of the Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine (DACCPM) at Mass General. The facility offers innovative, interactive courses and educational programs for residents and other clinicians. CMS is equipped with several highly realistic, computer-controlled patient mannequin simulators. It has two versatile simulation rooms that can each serve as a fully equipped operating room, ICU, recovery room, emergency ward, labor room or radiology suite.
Under the leadership of Executive Director Jeffrey Cooper, PhD, CMS has taken the lead in promoting practices to support safe patient care. The center also offers the Institute for Medical Simulation, a program to "teach the teachers" and future leaders in the field of simulation.
DACCPM residents participate in training at least once a year, beginning with an introductory course for new residents during the first month in the CA-1 year. All second- and third-year residents participate in the Anesthesia Crisis Resource Management (ACRM) training, based on the concepts of team training originating from the aviation industry and other high-vigilance work groups. There are also additional opportunities for a one-month simulator elective and longer programs for research studies.
The Anesthesia Residency Program offers the first-call experience to senior residents to help prepare them for independent practice. Each night, the first-call resident leads the resident call team, allocates resources, communicates with nursing and surgical teams, and manages the OR overnight.
The first-call resident is responsible for supervising the residents doing cases and is their primary backup for questions and help. The first-call resident teaches junior residents, often assisting them in the management of cases and techniques they have not previously encountered. An attending anesthesiologist is always on call with them and is present for all cases. The role of the attending is to support and teach, allowing the first-call resident to take the lead and make the transition from resident to independent anesthesiologist. This experience has proved to be invaluable for our graduates.
Being a successful resident requires a strong base in fundamental knowledge on which further expertise can be built. This knowledge base is assured through a combination of didactic lecture sessions as well as many opportunities for learning at the bedside.
The heart of the didactic program at Mass General are the Thursday morning conferences, which include a Grand Rounds presentation and either a Clinical Case Conference, Morbidity and Mortality Conference, Journal Club or Board Review (for all residents). Learn more
The four-year categorical program is offered in conjunction with Newton-Wellesley Hospital (NWH). Residents complete the internship experience at NWH, with the final elective module designated for anesthesia tutorial at Mass General. This allows for an additional elective month during the CA-3 year. The program is a combined surgical and medical year, with approximately four months of surgery, two months of ICU and six months of medical training. This program offers a unique opportunity for interested medical graduates to gain an excellent foundation for their careers as anesthesiologists.
Our anesthesia residents have the opportunity to receive training from more than 100 incredible teachers who are among the best in our specialty. Our faculty, along with our program leadership and chief residents, provide varying levels of support to our residents.

The Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital recruits top candidates, both nationally and internationally, into our Anesthesia Residency Program. Our residents bring to the program diverse perspectives and backgrounds, enriching the program further and deepening the care experience that our patients receive.
CA-1 residents come together for a fall weekend retreat, beginning with a daylong Outward Bound experience at Thompson Island located in the Boston Harbor Islands National Park Area. This outdoor team-building experience is followed by a retreat where residents are familiarized with the learning environment.
Throughout their training, residents participate in a variety of social events where they get to know each other and form lasting friendships including:
A world-class city with a small-town feel, Boston is rich in history and culture and home to more than 50 colleges and universities. Boston is known for its sports teams and for its major cultural institutions like the Boston Ballet and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. There are many museums, galleries and restaurants to visit, along with a thriving local music scene for interested residents.
Most area attractions are within walking distance or a short trip on public transportation. Mass General is located right near the city center, which is surrounded by a number of neighborhoods where our residents live. Some of the better-known areas include Harvard Square, Beacon Hill, Back Bay, South End and the North End.
Boston is also centrally located to major destinations in the Northeast. New York is just four hours away by bus.

I just released a new EP on my label called Diagnosis Terminal with Miro Pajic. One of the songs "IO" has a heavy swing to it. It's a very easy two step process to implement Swing in Ableton Live. Swing is of course popular in Jazz and is one of the main stylistic points in modern "Minimal" techno.
To hear it work let's create a test clip. I put and instance of Impulse with a Roland TR-808 kit on a track. I double clicked an empty Clip Slot to create an empty Clip. Then in the Midi Note Editor I laid down a 4/4 kick, Snare on the 2 and 4 and a 16th note closed Hi Hat.
On the top left side of the Ableton interface, to the left of the metronome "dots" you will see a number 0. That number represents the Global Groove Control parameter. Click and drag that number upwards to about 55.
Lastly, back down to the the Clip View and under the Groove drop down menu choose "Swing 16" which matches the 16th closed Hi Hats you have placed in your clip. Now listen to the loop with the Groove Control parameter at 0 and then at 55:
If your working with a pattern that is mostly 8th notes set the Swing to "Swing 8". This is the classic rock swing preset you hear on vintage drum machines.
Be sure to check out the swing parameters in plug-ins like D16's Nepheton or Audiorealism's ADM as they both Swing in a awesome aggressive nature. For MPC timings and unique Groove Control patterns try out Propellerhead's Reason 4 ReGroove Mixer.

Three decades before the MPs expenses scandal hit the House of Commons, Margaret Thatcher was acutely aware of the need to avoid any impression of lavish spending. The then prime minister insisted on using her own crockery at 10 Downing St as well as her own ironing board: truly the "Iron Lady". She sent back unwanted bed linen saying "we only use one bedroom", according to official papers kept at the National Archives in Kew.
According to the papers, released today for the first time, Thatcher wrote the memos on blue felt-tip pen after maintenance costs at Downing Street were published in response to a question by a Labour MP. The total cost of refurbishments had come to £1,836 and the prime minister's aides were worried that this might prompt public disapproval. (Some would say the spending, even with inflation, was relatively modest compared to David Cameron's recent £64,000 upgrade). Read more

After back-to-back losses to Brooklyn and the Clippers, the Timberwolves rolled to an easy home win over Memphis Wednesday night. The Wolves continued their season trend of hitting 100+ points, and Kevin Love notched his third triple-double of the year with 24 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists. Kevin Martin added 21 to the board. The 102-88 final score brought Minnesota's record to 37-37, and the Grizzlies are barely clinging to that No. 8 playoff spot in the Western Conference.
Memphis came in to the Target Center for the last of a five-game road trip, and the Wolves took advantage of this.
Minnesota shot an impressive 53.1 percent from the floor, and the team also grabbed five three-point buckets on the night. Fan favorite Ronny Turiaf made his return Wednesday, and the big guy added the energy and enthusiasm needed for the Wolves, who are out of the playoffs and just fighting for a strong end to the season. Turiaf was 100 percent from the field, tallying 11 points, seven points and three blocked shots. There's no doubt about it, having Turiaf back immediately improved Minnesota's defensive game.
Head coach Rick Adelman said the following after the game:
"Just a quality win against a quality team. It is nice to see us play a team that grinds it out and we were able to do the same thing back to them, defend them well and executed offensively. Thirty-one assists. And I thought Gorgui (Dieng) and Ronny were terrific at protecting the basket. And, of course, Kevin had a triple-double. It was a nice solid win."
Rookie Shabazz Muhammad also had another solid performance. The 21-year-old went 4-for-5 to tally eight points in just 14 minutes on the floor. Those numbers combine with his last four home games for a very impressive stat: 13/14 shots for 93 percent shooting. Since Muhammad has gotten more playing time in the last few weeks, he has certainly showed the potential for which he was drafted. Point guard Ricky Rubio also pulled his weight on scoring, grabbing 14 points and dishing out seven assists. Rubio tends to play inconsistently, but he found his groove–for the time being–against Memphis.
In contrast to Minnesota's offensive effort, the Grizzlies appeared disjointed and sluggish. The team didn't play well together, and the players collectively made petty errors that kept them out of the game.
"A lot of time zones. A lot of traveling. A lot of battles," said Memphis' Mike Conley. Conley, who is currently averaging 17.1 PPG and is historically one of the biggest threats against Minny, shot only 20 percent and finished the contest with seven points.
Overall, Wednesday was a win the Wolves needed to keep team morale high. Despite being out of the playoffs themselves, the team can now act as a spoiler. If nothing else, the fact that the Grizzlies were one of the Wolves main competitors for the postseason gave them an extra drive for the "W."
"We wanted to find some sense of motivation and that's what we found tonight," Love said. "We just wanted to knock off a team that is fighting right now."
Adelman echoed the idea, saying, ""Everybody else has something on the line […] So we want to go out and play as well as we can and spoil it for them and see if we can't be a factor in it."
The Grizzlies will return home to face Denver Friday night, while Minnesota will head south to take on LeBron James and the Heat Saturday night. Tipoff is set for 6:30 p.m.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/11/2012 (1728 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The skies are clearing, but with the sun come bitter winds out of the northwest: We're plunging into a deep freeze.
Temperatures of -10 C Sunday morning are the warmest southern Manitoba is forecast to see until the end of the week.
By afternoon, it will be -14, according to the Environment Canada forecast for Winnipeg.
Tonight the temperature will drop to -29, making it feel like -34 with the windchill.
It's much the same story for most of the week: Highs in the minus teens and lows in the -20s.
On Friday, clouds return and the temperature is projected to reach a high of -5 and a low of -11.
City plows were out overnight, clearing most major and collector routes, but roads are slippery and drivers are urged to slow down, especially at intersections.
