Advancing Shared Decision Making
For over two decades, the Informed Medical Decisions Foundation has been working to advance shared decision making through research, policy, clinical models and patient decision aids. We believe that the only way to ensure high quality medical decisions are being made is for a fully informed patient to participate in a shared decision making process with their health care provider.
Current News from Informed Medical Decisions Foundation
Planning for a New Decision Aid: Mammography
Breast cancer screening with mammography is a highly personal health decision for women age 40 and older. There are few decision aids to help guide women about the decision to screen for breast cancer.
The Informed Medical Decisions Foundation is in the process of creating a web-based mammography decision aid for women of different ages (40-49, 50-74 and age 75 and older). The decision aid will fit nicely within our library of cancer screening tools. The program will support our mission by presenting mammography as a personal choice for each woman, while also discussing the best available evidence about how many lives are saved with regular screening. "We are trying to present the information in the most easily comprehensible way so women can use that to make their own decisions," explains Chris Bettis, our patient perspectives and research specialist.
"The decision to screen and how often to screen is complicated, and there are different pros and cons, depending on your age," says Cathy Finn, our senior clinical research associate and project lead on the mammography decision aid. "However, it is an excellent opportunity for women to engage in shared decision making (SDM) with their doctor."
This topic is especially important as many providers and their patients don't think of mammography as a choice, but as something you "must" do to protect your health. In choosing to have a mammogram, there is the risk of discomfort, false positives and overtreatment. In choosing not to have a mammogram women may be at risk for possible undetected cancers, or cancer that might be detected later and require more aggressive treatment.
In the US there is pressure from the media and advocacy groups for women 40 and older to have annual mammograms; however, doctors and medical guidelines disagree about when to start screening, and how often to screen. Some guidelines recommend women start screening at age 40, other guidelines recommend starting at age 50. There is disagreement about just how many lives are saved by annual screening, and if getting a false positive is really a downside to being vigilant about finding cancer early.
The United States Preventative Task Force (USPSTF) reviewed some of the best studies of over 600,000 women, and based on these studies they recommend that women in their 40s can discuss the decision to screen with their providers as they may not benefit as much as women 50 and older. Women 50 and older can screen every other year and get similar benefit as annual screening, but with less risk of a false positive. Women age 75+ can continue to screen for breast cancer as long as they are in good health and could benefit from treatment if breast cancer is found.
Other countries, such as the UK, Canada and Australia, recommend starting mammograms at the age of 50 and screening every two years.
We wanted to learn what women thought about screening, so we invited women in three different age groups (40-49, 50-74 and 75+) to talk about mammography. We learned that women were mostly aware of the positives surrounding mammograms and knew less about the downsides. According to Pam Wescott, director of patient perspectives, "many women in these focus groups reported that they understood screening as their decision. In all age groups, some feel guilty and irresponsible if they don't have their annual mammogram." Ellen Reifler, senior research associate, patient perspectives, added, "although most women were unaware that there were any downsides to screening, they were receptive to hearing more about the reasons to screen every two years vs. every year." It was clear from the focus groups that women could use more information about screening and a breast cancer decision aid could be useful.
Joann Elmore, MD, MPH is the medical editor for the decision aid. Joann is an expert in breast cancer screening and treatment, and she will guide development of this decision aid.
This decision aid will be available in 2014.

A Time to Give Thanks
In 1621, just 40 miles south of the Informed Medical Decisions Foundation headquarters, the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag joined together to give thanks for the first successful harvest. Although today's annual celebration is quite different from that first Thanksgiving, one thing remains the same — Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks. As this autumn holiday nears, we'd like to take a moment to reflect on the many blessings of 2013, as well as those of years past. Continue reading

After how many years, still no wireless microphone with controls?
HMXHenry said, Honestly, there's not a ton of demand for alternate mic peripherals. Vocals are far and away the least used instrument in RB, so there's not a huge audience for something like this. Add in complications with proprietary 1st party wireless technology, potential lag, wireless connectivity issues and there's not a very compelling case for this. Cool for hardcore vocalists or party play people looking to free up their hands, but those people appear to be few and far between.

Forum shows Saudi's focus on educationBy Kim Se-jeong We call it oil-money and countries in the Middle East own most of it. Many wonder what governments of oil rich nations spend their money on. A percentage of it obviously flows into the pockets of the privileged individuals and their families who rule the region. Some is spent on tourism projects such as man-made islands, indoor ski resorts, and skyscrapers filled with luxury shops. Saudi Arabia is putting oil profits into education. Initiated by the Saudi foreign ministry, 26 university students and young professionals arrived in Seoul, Sunday, for a 10-day "Saudi-Korea Youth Forum." The gathering is arranged "to promote Saudi youth relations with other nations around the world and provide them with significant opportunity to exchange and interact with the youths of other countries," Ambassador of Saudi Arabia to Korea Ahmad Younos Al-Barrak told The Korea Times in a recent letter. While a group of South Korean university students spend time with them, hopes are high that real knowledge exchange opportunities will be created. The forum will focus on telecommunications, information and technology. The program includes visits to the Ministry of Knowledge Economy, The Korea Development Institute, Seoul National University of Science and Technology, Korea Institute of Science and Technology, Samsung Electronics in Suwon, Digital Media City, Korean Communication Commission, Ministry of Education and the SK Group. "The theme of the forum, Knowledge-Based Economy, Smart Cities, Broadband and e-Education well reflects the Kingdom's priority in development of fast changing high technology as a prerequisite for survival in the 21st century," the ambassador said. "Indeed, the Republic of Korea is among the world's leaders in these fields, and it's important to benefit from Korea's experiences in the field of ICT and the knowledge-based economy." Saudi Arabia has the world's largest oil reserves, and is the largest exporter of oil and oil products. Revenues from oil sales account for nearly 80 percent of its annual national budget and 90 percent of total export earnings. A diplomatic source who spent several years in Saudi Arabia said large-scale investment in education began about five years ago, spearheaded by King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz. The King opened King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in 2009, the nation's biggest university, with the aim of recruiting the best students and teachers from around the world. "The school invited Nobel laureates to come to teach, offering an awful lot of money," he said on condition of anonymity. The King was also behind a new campus for the Princess Nora bint Abdulrahman University, the largest women-only university in the world with the capacity to take 50,000 students last year. It was formerly called the Riyadh Women's University. The source added that the number of universities more than doubled by the time he left the country. A report filed by the South Korean Embassy in Saudi Arabia stated the focus on education has put the King at odds with conservatives in the country. The King's desire to replace a religious curriculum with practical training has caused a strong backlash from religious conservatives. At the end of the forum, participants will write a letter to President Lee Myung-bak, Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz and United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, reporting their experiences. What will happen when they return home and how much of what they saw will find an opportunity to be used? No one knows yet. But what seems to be important now is the experience itself. "I have a great conviction that the forum will leave youths with unforgettable memories and further hopes to build bilateral cooperative youth relations," the ambassador wrote. The youth forum is a small window into the half-century old relations between South Korea and Saudi Arabia. Commerce provides the backbone of the bridge between the two nations, with Korea importing petroleum from Saudi Arabia, with the Saudi's importing consumer goods from here. The launch of the Korea-Arab Society has increasingly played an important role in diversifying oil-dominated bilateral relations. The non-profit organization has invited artists, musicians and dance teams from Saudi Arabia and organized lectures and exhibitions. The first Arab Cultural Festival took place five years ago, and this year's event took place earlier this month in connection with the World Tourism Fair in Seoul. |

I Saw Him When He Came HE Didn't Look HimSelf :)
Hip Hop Star Lupe Fiasco Visits Pine Ridge and Whiteclay
As we reported earlier, the lead single off Lupe Fiasco's upcoming album (Food and Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album) kicks off with a call-out to Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, references Whiteclay, and contains several mentions of Natives as supporting evidence to the song's title: "Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free)."
On Sunday, the acclaimed rapper paid a visit to the reservation, which has increasingly become the focus of media attention thanks to two TV specials (episodes of Our America and 20/20) and a high-profile lawsuit against those who supply liquor and beer to the stores of Whiteclay.
The visit was preceded by little (if any) fanfare—on Sunday afternoon, Fiasco's Twitter followers received the following tweet:
"Guess where I am??? Me and @StringBizness on a Road Trip to say 'Peace 2 Pine Ridge' in person... "
He proceeded to snap a few photos and make further comments, although he does not seem to have made any publicity or promotional appearance on the rez. The following are his words and pictures:
"...Shame at all the damage the White Man wine did..."
"So Pine Ridge,SD is about 2 minutes from Whiteclay, NE Alcohol is illegal in Pine Ridge.. "
"Whiteclay has about 11 residents but somehow managed to sell about 5 million beers in a year...to whom??? I had to see it for myself... "
"It's very surreal...an empty town right across reservation/state lines with just liquor stores..."
On a related note, the official video for "Around My Way (Freedom Ain't Free)" was recently released:

Open vs closed reed

I've had lots of coyotes called in with mouth calls, mostly by beginners, that sounded gawd awful. Plus, I used to make a LOT more stands than I do today & mostly with mouth calls, so this (higher # of stands) may have contributed to the higher # of dogs with mouth calls(vs an e caller). Maybe?
And yes, mouth calls crap out, some worse than others. The double reed (vs single) seems to be worse, but also could be my imagination on that. I personally prefer the closed reed due to their simplicity and ruggedness. Plus they still sound good! Open reeds have to be semi-pampered or the reed can be destroyed. At least in my case. lol
Open reeds are indeed more versatile & I always have at least one on me, but I seldom use them. And while I agree on the versatility of the open reed, I do not need that. I have excellent coyote vocals & other sounds on my foxpro, & only need a mouth call for rabbit distress. Also, some of my closed reed calls are very loud, & can't imagine an open reed being much, if any louder. But hey?
So, I guess what I am trying to say is, than while you may, or may not have called in more dogs with a mouth call, it may also have something to do with other circumstances... bad luck, no coyotes in the area, educated-tough to call coyotes, moon, wind, poor stand selection etc.
Anyhow, I always have and use both mouth & e caller on me. However, today, I use my e caller 90+% of the time. It's just too convenient & potentially more successful... taking the attention off the hunter for an easier (ambush) shot, and being able to hold the weapon steadier from not being exhausted from blowing on a mouth call for 10 minutes or longer etc.
I guess both have their place, and much likely has to do with personal preference. Along with, there are always some draw backs to everything, no matter how good a certain item is. Plus going with whatever brings one the most confidence & pleasure.
Hope this helps, and good luck
Posted 20 November 2012 - 02:23 PM
beat a open reed call for talking to them. Never had a E Caller yet seems like too much of a bother.Your eyes are always looking at the remote insted of looking for the coyote. ,well Shoot it's eyes. I never seen one come into a E caller yet.

It also reminds me of why I often, but not always, mix things up on one stand when a single sound isn't working. IE; distress rabbit not working & switch to howls & perhaps followed up with puppy yipes that end up bringing them in(when distress rabbit didn't). Stuff like that... To me, coyote vocals only adds another dimension & more fun & excitement to our sport.

My usual go to call is the ol critr call pee wee. Doesn't take a lot of wind to use. Also Verminator Tweety. easy to use as well.
As for sounds...tough to improve on a JS cottontail, Jack or bird sound.

Luna sat alone in the streets of shadows and darkness, she had no where to go anymore, left alone to fend for herself she never sough tout help for anything let alone from anyone, she was a curse, driven out by her parents. Luna closed her eyes slightly and opened her palm as intense blue flames came out and kept her warm, she sniffled slightly as a blue tear came out, she gets up and slowly walked into the streets, looking left and right seeing barely anyone there anymore. She walked along the sidewalk. She then was grabbed by two men forced into an alleyway, shaking slightly she watched the men get closer,
"Money?" One asked, Luna was down right broke and shook her head,
"Please stay away this will end badly for you" she whined not wishing to harm anyone anymore but the men laughed and attacked, she ripped her hand through a guys throat tears falling from her eyes, the man rasped before falling over dead, The other man ran out screaming,
"Freak" and ran off, Luna felt heated angry tears falling and looked up and saw a man standing at the enterance of the alleyway, was he going to attack her, cause her harm, or did he see her kill the man, she back away into the shadows, but hears a snarl and froze.
Hexi the beloved daughter of Lucifer and leader of hellhounds had fallowed her father and was in the shadows behind Luna with a deep growl warning the girl to not move at all, with a smirk she sat down and waited for her father to talk. Hexi's black fur glows in the shadows red eyes dark and sinister.

The set.
Our viewers know you very well as a contributor also a writer for the American conservative magazine.
And very knowledge of men on the media.
Thank you and we're gonna talk about.
Bias in the media of course.
I was as you do on -- if we get we arrows and M and Saturdays on FOX News Watch it right answers at 3 PM on each and -- and we -- Sunday now.
And it's a full -- -- and -- Pegasus so much short -- coverage to coverage.
Libya's been in the news for obvious reasons and what is your take on the media's take on this story well I think that the media have.
Been happy to accept the Obama administration -- -- -- -- this I think because they're supporting.
In the presidential campaign and I think -- to begin with and -- especially wanna see Barack Obama -- -- impact Goodell was another fox contributor has said many times that.
Barack Obama's getting a better press and Jimmy Carter -- another democratic President Bill Clinton ever did this the Obama administration.
From the get go tried to blame the attack on the consulate in Benghazi Libya that is part of this uprising these protests about this movie that was on the web.
When in fact according to the latest reports they knew within the first few hours that this was in fact the terror attack on the anniversary of 9/11.
-- -- ambassador in three other US staffers.
Right and and now it's seventeen days later.
And we're also kind of piecing it together I mean whenever I think we -- another story right now but the thing is.
If the news it down on 9/11.
Had been do you -- that -- bomb bomb administration was sitting there unguarded and ambassador got killed them embassy or whatever has got sacks.
Mean they were ready.
Of all the dating is ever to be ready for.
Terror attack and they weren't ready for -- that would -- terrible headline and really really bad for them.
The suggestion is that the Obama administration.
Decided not to call it a terror attack because they didn't want to appear soft on terrorists and I'm prepared.
-- prepared but also.
Could be did they have a reputation for -- revision after the killing of Osama bin Laden as an administration that is tough on terror right.
And yet on the anniversary of 9/11 right.
So I think we really got -- they didn't want that it may want oh no it was some movies some guy in California made that did it that's a much different story that if -- shifts the burden of guilt of blame if you will from the Obama administration to some guy California.
-- from the Obama administration point of -- including his reelection campaign that.
That's much better the narrative continued for days if not more than a week after.
Right and why why would they try to maintain a story that clearly -- holes and falling -- because they're getting Toyota.
And now if if look if if some impressionable swing voter says OK here is on September 28 well you know there's still going to be some of the and it looks like it was terrorism.
And the Washington Post -- front page story today has a bunch of theories and speculation about it wrong and I'm sure all of -- our crew.
-- because it well OK fine it's old news.
If -- 9/11 and then on the on the the pay if you will of nine -- -- while.
Administration caught flat footed unprepared for terrorist attack -- -- and a terrible headline.
Instead now is kind of -- we had enough a few reporters and there are chasing after the story trying to make the point and so on and so on saying look in -- -- they knew within a few hours.
But for the most -- most.
Media conversation has moved on to what you're saying it's.
This was a brilliant strategist and it was it if you if you are the boxing fan you know what -- with openness and it works and you know Mohammed -- was sit there like this he couldn't punch in the face he just didn't want to hear all the time and he in boxing you get tired really quickly and -- he still can't quite frequently when you're now that are coming.
And -- you.
And they work for it made him a broad national world champion so it's a pretty good strategy to implement it does take the media.
-- -- -- The media doesn't say well let's just finishing question could be terrorism could be -- -- it could be riots could be both -- as an enemy that big bucks and then meanwhile orders tomorrow.
The -- kind of -- and a and a deliberate stupor about what a coupon in addition doing they're they're clobbering Mitt Romney on how dare you.
If -- state what about the -- This is a case that being handled by the FBI their hand on the investigation.
And it in the first hours and -- after the event.
It still wasn't clear exactly what happened.
And they needed to let the investigation take its course before they announce to the world what in fact there have learned about it what it really was.
That that's finishing argument if it were true.
You know maybe as you said is invalid what evidence they knew within hours.
That it was a terrorist attack and they kept.
Putting spokespersons.
Jay Carney and Susan Rice and -- -- I don't know what with it probably was dirty -- the -- who knows what it wasn't Tara banks is racist is it really wasn't terror right.
Well again that's good that's that's throwing up pixie dust in the air and hoping people no don't quite see the real sure how.
How do you think -- the media would have treated this had it been -- Bush Administration.
Spinning the story the way that will probably -- you don't have to think about that because look think back.
2 when the revelation came out that that President Bush have been briefed on August.
In August of 2001 a month before 9/11 about you know the -- -- something like bin Laden attack plans -- -- it didn't say where did say when a disorder you know and that can end.
The meteor all of that -- that led to the 9/11 commission that led to me you know years' worth of headlines and hearings and story just rise to that level well.
Did the terms of the number of people killed no.
But it is in terms of will look the Bush Administration could plead looked who'd ever heard of anything like this from.
You know nobody even dreamed that -- crash airplanes into buildings like that.
Now I mean every.
President you know from the next hundred years -- facility -- September 11 this could be.
There's -- time to double down on security and they weren't ready.
And one of our viewers rights case in point all weeklong MSNBC's morning Joseph spent every possible second of the programs -- one topic.
Can you believe how -- a candidate Mitt Romney years they have not devoted 12.
To the two week unfolding in Bolivia disaster and I don't know those.
It does is it completely accurate we appreciate that I.
ABC ABC news another another network at David -- David Muir wood would -- had an interview -- I think Wednesday night.
And then the -- is the middle ballclub is at now is finally coming into.
Realization when it happened and so David David -- -- -- questions and rode around the world -- your campaign behind what authorities have been others.
They're what they're not -- and is saying she lives do we as you said the ordinary to do we connected -- here and I think that.
Did the State Department involved founded the National Security Council Paul -- is somebody they know they're there in this.
And they're not interested in creating that you know post headline at all of Obama under pressure because of revelations about Libya said it's probably under pressure -- of well I'm sure if you shoot the headline -- this is it a whole overall just a cover up towards it just clouding of war or.
-- -- direction.
You know -- has that kind of legal analyst element to it and and -- got -- and -- certainly happy if I -- -- and I I would be content.
To pronounce a cloud in this direction supposed to cover about it is I'm not aware that they're actually.
Hi -- information.
That should legitimately be put on the other hand last Saturday as -- thing about this more the hill newspaper.
I had a had a headline you know Republican senators outrage about briefing this -- on senator corps -- respected guy Lindsey Graham.
Background whether it on the net and another US senator also if you would you know we -- learn anything.
That would should they get into that won't say that doesn't prove cover up -- simply proves they're not trying very honored to share.
With the congress as to what happened in Libya and and I think the reason is -- -- you know and then this be cynical about it.
If that was that handed Republicans and -- you -- like -- you know view is we've we've we've -- -- -- -- -- and -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- two seconds -- -- -- -- -- mr.

Up until a [few] months ago, no one would believe a monkey in a shearling coat would shop at Ikea.
But ever since Darwin, the well-dressed rhesus macaque monkey, escaped from his human mom's parked car and entered a Toronto Ikea with the same panicked expression seen on humans at the furniture outlet, we've learned that nothing is impossible.
So what first-world problems is the Ikea monkey facing in 2013? There's an ugly custody battle, a new home with none of the luxuries of suburban life, and too many Facebook pages to keep track of.
"Hello world!!! Thanks for bringing me to Story Book Farm!! You all rock...I just wish I had a mommy to help me through these tough times!!" writes Darwin, or rather Darwin's Facebook "translator" at the animal sanctuary where the ten-month-old primate now resides.

The first question:
Osho,Your dancing meditations seem to be bringing forth an overwhelming sensuousness. All that has not been taken, all that has not been given is revealed then…. The play of nature on my whole being, all the beauty that I behold, all the music that enchants my ears and my soul, all seem to be expressed in voluptuousness. Even when I close my eyes in silent sitting, this tangible presence is felt.
I welcome and enjoy this growing sensitivity, an "orgasmic" affair with life. I cannot imagine God descending upon me but as the ultimate lover when I will be turned inside out, totally open and as readable as the glorious moon.
Can I trust this feeling? And is it of any meaning with regard to being with you and growing through you?
I have not been blessed with transcendental experiences. All I know and all that seems to be my lot to know is this joy, ever-increasing and fresh, to be part of the cosmic play and to be able to transmute it in my daily living – in all kinds of creative fashions, from cooking to dancing and praying. Can you please advise me.
This is what I am teaching here. I don't teach the transcendental, I teach the immanent – because the immanent is the transcendental. I don't teach the ultimate, I teach the immediate – because the immediate is the body of the ultimate. If you enter into the immediate you will find the ultimate pulsating there. The ultimate is the heartbeat of the immediate.
This is my fundamental teaching: that there is no division between this and that. That is contained in this, the other shore is contained in this shore. You need not go anywhere. If you can be joyous, flowing, alive, sensitive, orgasmic, this very shore immediately is transformed into the other shore…this very world the paradise, this very body the Buddha.
Remember it, because down the ages religions have been teaching a dichotomy between this and that. Religions have been teaching a kind of schizophrenia, a split, between the body and the soul, between the lower and the higher, between the outer and the inner, and so on and so forth.

You can do this by adding the action 'repeat macro'.

Two female Brazilian tourists kidnapped by Bedouins Sunday in Sinai were released hours later, Egyptian police said Monday.
"The security services have succeeded, in cooperation with Bedouin leaders, to obtain the release of two Brazilian tourists who were kidnapped with a guide and a member of the Egyptian tourist police," a police source told AFP, stressing that all four were safely released.
A Brazilian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the two tourists, ages 18 and 45, were taken back to their hotel where the rest of the passengers on the bus they were traveling on are staying.
"Regarding the Brazilians, we do know that they are in good health," the spokesperson added.
Dejair Batista Silveiro, father of one of the women and witness to the kidnapping, told Brazilian media he had spoken to his daughter Sara after their release.
"She's alive. I spoke to her by telephone after and she said 'Daddy, I'm fine'," he said.
Two armed Bedouin stopped the tour bus containing 38 tourists at gunpoint, before driving off with their hostages toward the peninsula's mountains, a police official said.
One of the kidnappers was said to be the father of a man sentenced to prison on drugs and weapons charges, and that he wanted his son's release.
The tourists had been returning from a visit to the historic monastery of St. Catherine in southern Sinai.
The incident marked the third kidnapping of foreign tourists in two months in the Sinai.
In February, Bedouin demanding the release of jailed tribesmen kidnapped three South Korean tourists in the same area, shortly after the abduction of two American women and their Egyptian tour guide.
The tourists and the guide were all released quickly and unharmed in that case also, as were 25 Chinese workers seized at the end of January.
The sparsely populated region is where Egypt's most lucrative tourist resorts are located, as well as being home to a mostly poor and disaffected Bedouin population.
Since an uprising overthrew President Hosni Mubarak last year, the Sinai has grown even more lawless, with attacks on police stations and almost monthly bombings targeting a pipeline that exports gas to neighboring Israel.
The Bedouin have pressed hard for the release of captive tribesmen they say have been sentenced unfairly on charges ranging from terrorism to drugs dealing.

Don't you think we are going to have a flood of bands and XNA members come here and advertise their songs. I hope that wont become a problem.

I'm going for RBN check me out @
Actually I do hope the songs from bands/charting groups have a place for their own topics.
One topic is just, bleh.
I think I'd much rather have just one topic. Kinda like Enosity's topic that has all the confirmed bands. It would be a directory of everything available and links all in one nice list. Would be nice to be seperated by genre too.
Not only because I just started one, but I think RBN bands should totally have the chance to open one thread (and one thread only) about their music. It is just a much better way to receive actual feedback from the community, as opposed to the main thread which is simply for announcing.
For example, I really liked the 500 Miles to Memphis song but didn't bother cluttering up the main thread. Had there been a dedicated thread, I would've written something positive about the song/band.
More - PHISH, Modest Mouse, Talking Heads, Radiohead, Blind Melon, Flaming Lips, Meat Loaf
Some - Wilco, Neutral Milk Hotel, Bright Eyes
Yeah, I am thinking that might be the best idea... but, lets wait until the songs actually get released. We don't want a buch of band's threads out there where they said they were checking into it and sending files only to have nothing really released because it didn't make it through Peer review OR there were charting problems.
No need for a 500 Miles to Memphis thread until the songs actually hit RBN.
Pushing 50 and still rockin' like a teen, only now I can afford it and it takes longer to recover.
That likely won't be an issue, save for a band or two that don't read the fine print when uploading songs, I don't think
Face it bro, my divinity is unassailable
Yeah, my worry is that, at this stage, I think a lot of bands are getting announced that don't realize what it's going to take to create a RBN track. Once the open beta begins and we actually start working on tracks, I think it will be appropriate for bands/labels to have their own threads (once they're ankles-deep in coding it).
Also, I'm glad you liked the 500MTM track. It's going to be a lot of fun.

For some people, this cats vs. dogs thing is the great divide in America.
An Associated Press-Petside.com poll recently found that 74 percent of people in the United States like dogs a lot, while only 41 percent say they like cats a lot. In a new poll, 56 percent of dog owners say they'll buy their pets a gift this Christmas, but only 48 percent of cat owners plan a gift.

Did you know spring is the best time to sell your home? And now that the housing market is bouncing back, there's never been a better time to do it. But even if you're planning to stay put for the long haul, chances are there are some much-needed touch-ups you could be doing to keep your home in tip-top shape. And you don't have to break your back, or the bank, to do it. In fact, adding a new coat of paint is a quick, affordable, and possibly the most impactful, way to get your project done.
Prep, prime and primp
Misusing color can be a surefire way to turn people off from your home. For a more inviting look that nearly everyone can enjoy, opt for neutral paint colors. A subtle beige, slight grey or even white can do the trick.
First, move furniture out of the room and place drop cloths to protect the floor. Remove any picture frames, outlet covers and wall decor. Then, gently scrub the walls with a mild detergent and water mixture using a soft sponge to remove any dirt, grime or lint. Don't forget to prime your walls before applying color to ensure the best end-results.
Paint like a pro
For an ultra-smooth finish, try Purdy's line of Ultra Finish roller covers. These premium microfiber roller covers, available in 9-inch lengths and varying nap thickness, provide an even release of paint and deliver a consistent application from start to finish. Plus, they work great with any kind of paint and finish, including satin, semi-gloss and gloss, taking the guesswork out of the DIY equation.
When applying paint, start at the top and work your way down. For superior results, you'll want to fill the well of your roller tray with paint, dip the roller in half-way and then roll it back onto the tray's angled platform to easily remove excess paint. This will reduce dripping and improve overall paint cover. The best approach for applying paint? Use your roller cover to make an overlapping "W" pattern in a 2-foot by 2-foot area; then fill in and repeat.
For smaller interior paint projects or tight spaces, Purdy also has a variety of innovative mini roller choices that are versatile, lightweight and can quickly and easily deliver a perfect finish with smooth rolling action. These combined features make them the ideal applicator for a variety of projects like painting doors and cabinets, to freshening up tables, chairs and even bedroom furniture.
Keeping your color conviction
If you're still feeling deprived of color after your painting project is complete, never fret. There are several ways to add a pop of color throughout your home without slathering the walls with offensive paint colors. Try incorporating fun accent pieces in your favorite colors – think lamps, frames, pillows and rugs. You can even include larger focal pieces like royal blue armchairs or a patterned couch to make a bolder statement. By keeping the overall aesthetics of your home neutral and inviting, and enhancing them with a few sight-provoking embellishments, house guests will be asking you for home decorating tips. And if your end goal is to get your home sold, consider these minor improvements a step in the right direction.

A happy obsession is in evidence at the Birds of Vermont Museum — home to hundreds of life-sized wooden birds expertly carved by Bob Spear. The loon family alone took him 850 hours to carve and paint. Spear founded Vermont's first chapter of the National Audubon Society in 1962, and is still carving birds today. Photo: Matthew Thorsen
The original Vermonters — Native American Abenaki — have a voice at the Vermont Folklife Center. So do the Vermont descendents of slaves. With an archive that consists of more than 3900 tapes, the organization aims to document and conserve the state's cultural heritage, including groups making history today. A recent photo exhibit captured the lives of Mexican dairy farm workers in Addison County.
Best known for its connection with the Underground Railroad, the Rokeby Museum preserves the history of four generations of remarkable Robinsons. Ahead of its time in every way, the family was made up of Quakers, abolitionists and artists. They were also successful farmers. Patriarch Thomas R. Robinson was among the first agriculturalists to import Merino sheep to the U.S. If he were around today, the old man might be raising something equally radical, like llamas. Two of them live across the road from the Rokeby, along with a camel.
Located on the Burlington waterfront, the 2.2 acre ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center/Leahy Center for Lake Champlain features 70 live species, more than 100 interactive experiences, seasonal changing exhibits and events — all exploring the ecology, culture, history, and opportunity for stewardship of the Lake Champlain Basin.
The Sheldon Museum, on Middlebury's town green, serves as both a municipal archive and showcase of 19th-century small-town Vermont life.
The Shelburne Museum: Just do it. Electra Havemeyer Webb's collection of fine and folk art may be Vermont's greatest cultural treasure. The "gallery" experience could not be less intimidating. You can walk leisurely between the buildings, where people in period dress act as printers, blacksmiths and apothecaries. Or wander through the staterooms on the lovingly restored passenger steamer S.S. Ticonderoga. In the Electra Havemeyer Webb Memorial Building are some of the museum's — and the world's — most precious paintings by Manet, Monet, Degas and Cassat.
The Main Street Museum in White River Junction offers an interesting mix of international and quirky Americana curiosities, such as this summer's "Tramp and Hobo Symposium." Want something even stranger? Check out the "Flora and Fauna Collection," which, according to the museum's website, represents "invasive species from the infrastructure of an economically marginal Vermont downtown. Our dried cats are not true mummies; they are merely dehydrated."

How Government Wastes Our Time in Travel
October 30, 2013, 7:01amTime is the ultimate scarce resource. Unfortunately, Americans waste a huge amount of time every year as they commute to and from work, and also when they travel by air.
The Texas A&M Transportation Institute estimates the direct cost of urban traffic congestion at $121 billion per year (and that is just an estimate of people's time and excess fuel burned in stop-and-go congestion). The full economic costs of traffic congestion are about twice that much, including lower urban area productivity and higher freight costs.
Air travel delays, both at airports and in the sky, are in the vicinity of $29 billion per year, according to an academic study funded by the Federal Aviation Administration. Air travelers also spend an estimated 138 million hours a year waiting in Transportation Security Administration airport security screening lines.

Southeastern Med Recognizes National Case Management Week October 10-16
CAMBRIDGE, Ohio, Oct. 1, 2010 – Southeastern Med joins the American Case Management Association to recognize case managers during National Case Management Week, October 10-16, for the significant contributions they make to provide patients with quality healthcare.
Case management is an important part of the healthcare system today. Rising healthcare costs and the aging population has resulted in a need for better management of healthcare toward more cost-effective outcomes. Case management professionalsadvocate for the needs of patients, assuring that individual cases are promptly attended to along the healthcare chain.
"Case management is a necessary part of the healthcare system," said Debbie Goodhart, RN, CCM, case manager at Southeastern Med. "Case managers assist in the financial side of healthcare, but also focus on each patient to meet his or her individual needs. They also coordinate care, make appropriate referrals for care need and provide the patient with community resources, all with the patient's safety first and foremost."
At Southeastern Med, Social Services, Utilization Review and Case Management form the Quality Care Management (QCM) Department, which requires a registered nurse and a licensed social worker on each unit of the medical center to provide assessment, referrals and discharge planning to patients. This team also works with third-party payers to ensure patients' needs are met.
"Our team of case managers work together to make a difference in the lives of our patients," said Nancy Neff, BSW, LSW, CCM, social worker at Southeastern Med. "We understand that healthcare is ever changing and resources are scarce. We are committed to achieving desirable outcomes for all stakeholders, including our patients, their support systems and the providers and payers alike."
Because no two patients are alike, case management can be a complex profession. Each case is unique and requires a basic knowledge of individual differences that arise through cultural, socio-economic, ethnic and other factors. Case management professionals look after the health concerns of the most chronically ill and injured patients of all ages, especially members of the aging population who find it continually more difficult to look after themselves.
Case management professionals pay strict attention to a patient's individual needs and guide patients to follow medication, dietary and exercise recommendations during their period of treatment. This is an ever-challenging process considering numerous individuals may be involved in a single case. Ultimately, case managers have the ability to improve access to care, ensure quality and safety as they design the plan of care to meet the needs of their patients and ensure strategies are in place to contain increasing healthcare costs.
