More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Recent Changes in the Regulatory Landscape 2011 marked a major shift in the regulatory environment, as the SEC adopted rules for implementing the Dodd-Frank Act. Many changes to Investment Advisers Act were authorized by Title IV of the Dodd-Frank Act.
- U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Information This information sheet contains general information about certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and selected rules under the Advisers Act. It also provides information about the resources available from the SEC to help advisors understand and comply with these laws and rules.
Regulatory Compliance has introduced a service intended to streamline service offerings for clients in a clear, logical manner so that they can stay on top of regulatory deadlines and filings.
The firm, which provides consulting and compliance offerings for broker-dealers and RIAs, says that the new program, available in several different levels, can be tailored to fit each company's compliance program needs.
Dennis McCarron, chief operating officer at Regulatory Compliance, said in an interview that since the firm does compliance and registration consulting for RIAs, hedge funds, private equity funds, BDs, M&A firms and third-party marketers, among others, the consulting programs have been designed into different groups.
McCarron, who said he brings a client perspective to the table at the firm, adds that the Partner Program was originally known as Compliance Partners and now in its new incarnation provides "different levels of services to serve different levels and complexities" of the businesses that make up the firm's clientele.
For RIAs, there are three different levels: Pro, Plus and Elite. For BDs, there are four: Express, Pro, Plus and Elite. The Elite level, said McCarron, is set up to "help [client firms] execute on everything." The firm will design a compliance program that meets expectations and supports the client's long-term growth.
The Elite partner, added McCarron, will "talk with the compliance officer and team, and also with the CEO" in the course of determining the firm's growth aspirations so that the program can be tailored to provide the support it needs to execute its long-term plans.
"Compliance is part of your business, where historically it has not been," McCarron said. "With all the rules and regulations coming down the road, business is more dependent on compliance functions than it has been in the past. [The Partner Program] will get [client] businesses to understand the properties and functionalities of compliance."

Ford is apologizing for a series of disturbing ads that depict former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi with a trio of bound women in the trunk of a car.
The ads had not yet been used, but appeared over the weekend on a website showcasing creative advertising, a Ford India spokeswoman told The Associated Press.
They sparked immediate uproar online and came just days after India passed a major anti-rape law following the fatal gang rape of a student on a bus.
"Ford India Needs to Fire Its Advertising Execs," a headline on Slate.com read. Twitter users reacted with posts like "Disgusting!" and "SHAME," according to the AP.
All of the ads feature Ford's logo.
One showed three women bound and gagged in the trunk of a Ford Figo, with Berlusconi smiling and flashing the peace sign in the driver's seat. The tag line reads, "Leave your worries behind with the Figo's extra-large boot," likely in reference to Berlusconi's many affairs and bunga bunga parties, Business Insider reported.
Paris Hilton is also featured, apparently kidnapping reality TV stars Kardashian sisters, and Formula One driver Michael Schumacher is also depicted abducting his male racing competition, the AP reported.
In apologies on its Facebook page, Ford said the images were "contrary to the standards of professionalism and decency within Ford."

From the first moment that a student sets foot in a Catholic school, he or she ought to have the impression of entering a new environment, one illumined by the light of faith, and having its own unique characteristics.
Saint Jude Students Offer Support
It was all hands on deck as Cross Catholic Outreach arrived with their storage truck. Students in grade eight assisted as "Boxes of Joy" were loaded into the truck, where they will be reviewed and prepared for shipment. In a few short weeks the treasures will be delivered to children in Guatemala for Christmas.
What happens when a major storm comes our way?
Should a major storm move toward Palm Beach County, Saint Jude Catholic School will follow the policies adopted by the Palm Beach County Public School authorities regarding school closings for inclement weather (Hurricanes & Tornadoes).
Off to a Fantastic start!
God, teachers, children...how could it be anything but wonderful?

Why are there so many incompetent leaders? Is your boss less than competent? How about that department head in accounting or HR that doesn't know his/her job? How in the world do incompetent people rise to the top in many organizations? Here are the reasons:
We Don't Do a Good Job of Selecting Leaders. We simply don't invest the time or resources needed to select the best people for jobs. Time and time again, we take hiring shortcuts. We interview in a haphazard way, and select the person who appears best in the interview. The problem is that often the best performer in the interview is one of the least competent workers (they're so good in the interview because they get so much practice, because they are often fired!).
We don't invest the time needed to do a thorough selection, which includes asking how applicants deal with specific situations (situational interviewing). We don't structure interviews or spend enough time with candidates. We don't bother to check references. We don't take enough advantage of employment tests and other hiring technology. As a result, we get what we pay for - few resources invested = poor outcome.
We Rely too Much on Seniority. The Peter Principle is the notion that people rise in organizations to their level of incompetency. When we give too much weight to seniority, we are in trouble. In today's competitive, mobile job market, seniority may actually be an indicator of poor ability (no other company would hire the person).

Since 2002 every New Year's Eve for me has involved three things: the ball dropping in Times Square, consuming a regrettable amount of champagne, and listening to Skillz' yearly wrap-up (he's like the Dick Clark of hip-hop). Every December for the past eight years the Virginia-bred Skillz has been putting the year in perspective through rhyme, touching on everything from politics to fashion and, of course, hip-hop. This year's edition features some cleverly constructed lines from Skillz that includes, in no particular order, Obama's inauguration, Tiger's cheating ways, Kanye's infamous Taylor Swift interruption, the explosion of Twitter, Octomom's enormous uterus, 50 and Rick Ross' beef, Bernie Madoff's multi-billion dollar scam and, of course, Drake's knee. Produced by Sound H Productions, the 2009 Wrap Up is the perfect way to wave goodbye to one of the craziest years in history before we turn our sights squarely on the new year. Look out for more from Skillz in the coming year, including his 2010 wrap-up - hey, it's never too early to start.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner is again explaining his reversal on raising the minimum wage after video footage surfaced of him saying he's "adamantly, adamantly" opposed.
The venture capitalist has been under fire for comments he made last month advocating to cut Illinois' $8.25 rate to the national $7.25 rate. He then changed course, saying Thursday he'd support an increase under the right circumstances. Rauner says his comments at the December forum were too "flippant."
However, the video captures Rauner talking at a September Ford County Republicans gathering where he says he's "adamantly, adamantly" opposed. The Chicago Sun-Times posted the clip online Thursday. It was produced by American Bridge 21st Century, a Democratic-funded Super PAC.
A spokesman says Rauner has learned his lesson about giving more well thought out answers.

American Libraries Magazine
"We allow our children to be taught to hate," said Ilyasah Shabazz, the daughter of Malcolm X, and an auditorium speaker on Sunday at the 2014 ALA Annual Conference.
Many library professionals, when offered a job, are so relieved to hear that the search is over that they agree to any terms an employer sets.
The American Indian Youth Literature Awards (AIYLA) ceremony took place on Sunday afternoon.
While libraries are so much more than the physical books on our shelves, those books play a critical role in the services we provide to patrons. Which is why, for many of us, half the fun of ALA Annual Conference is hearing about what is new and upcoming from our favorite authors.
I am not a tech head. Don't get me wrong, I love the internet, my smartphone, and gifs, but I know very little about the computer science behind the technology I use. Yet the increasing power of technology and the role it plays in our daily lives cannot be understated.
On Saturday, ALA Council met for its first session, with ALA President Barbara Stripling presiding. Among its actions, Council passed a Resolution in Support of Stable Funding for Air Force Libraries (CD#43).
The Game Making Interest Group's meeting this year centered around the recently published book Gaming in Libraries: Essays on Using Play to Connect and Instruct (McFarland, 2014), which was edited by the group's chair, Breanne Kirsch.

American McGee's Akaneiro Comic
Dark Horse ARPG Adaption
Published: 01/09/2013, Last Updated: 01/10/2013 04:17am
Dark Horse Comics has announced a partnership with game designer and creator American McGee to adapt Spicy Horse Studios' Akaneiro: Demon Hunters ARPG (action roleplaying videogame) into a three-issue comic mini-series beginning in May.
Authored by Justin Aclin (Wizard, Star Wars: The Clone Wars) and drawn by Vasilis Lolos (Northlanders, The Pirates of Coney Island, Conan the Barbarian), Akaneiro blends Japanese mythology and the folklore of the Red Riding Hood fable in the central character of Kani. With the added supernatural threat of the Yokai, Kani must negotiate her heritage and culture as she pursues a life within the Order of Akane.
Akaneiro is not the first comic adaptation of McGee's gaming universe. In 2009, IDW Publishing released a five-issue mini-series based on the game American McGee's Grimm (see "'American McGee's Grimm' Comes to Comics"). Additionally, McGee partnered with Dark Horse in 2011 for The Art of Alice: Madness Returns, a behind-the-scenes book about the blockbuster game.

Governor Timothy M. Kaine announced Friday that Kalahari Resorts plans to develop a $200 million indoor waterpark resort complex in Fredericksburg.
The project is one of the largest economic development announcements in recent history for Fredericksburg and will further amplify the area's appeal as a tourism destination. Tourism is one of Virginia's largest industries, generating $17.7 billion in revenue and providing over 208,000 jobs each year.
Kalahari will purchase 49 acres adjacent to the Fredericksburg Expo & Conference Center to build an authentically African-themed waterpark resort. The resort will be a 125,000-square-foot waterpark with 100,000 square feet of conference and event space and 700 guest rooms and suites.
In addition, Kalahari Resort-Fredericksburg will feature a luxurious Spa Kalahari, a variety of dining, nightlife and retail offerings. A December 2009 opening is planned, dependant on final approvals.
"This announcement is positive for Fredericksburg and the entire Commonwealth," said Governor Kaine. "Resorts of this caliber, combined with our history, heritage and cultural destinations, help make Virginia a top tourism destination and bring in millions of dollars in tax revenue for our state and local economies."
The new resort will be located off of Interstate 95, in the Celebrate Virginia area of the City of Fredericksburg and Stafford County. Celebrate Virginia spans 2,400 acres along the Interstate 95 corridor between Washington D.C. and Richmond.
It includes 2.4 million square feet of mixed use major retail space, a 1,200 acre corporate campus, the Cannon Ridge Golf Club, the site of the future United States National Slavery Museum, numerous additional hotels and the Fredericksburg Expo and Conference Center.
"The City of Fredericksburg is pleased to hear that a Kalahari Resort is planning to make their east coast debut at Celebrate Virginia," said Mayor Thomas J. Tomzak. "We view this important project as the cornerstone of efforts to attract even more tourism venues to the city as we become an east coast destination."
Kalahari Resort-Fredericksburg will be the company's first business venture outside the Upper Midwest. Kalahari's authentically African-themed properties in Wisconsin and Ohio draw more than two million visitors to their respective markets annually.

Great new buys at Target - Hollywood Intuition
by Sara Osburn
posted Aug 11 2009 10:08AM
The latest designer bag collection at Target is from Hollywood Intuition. The bags resemble some Chloe, Marc Jacobs, and Michael Kors bags that I have seen around.
There are a lot of fun colors this season, but I find it hard to spend $300 on a purple bag that might only be in for 1 season. The Hollywood Intuition line is a great way to add green, purple, or bright orange into your collection for under $30!
My favorite bag is the cluth...that can also be worn as a fanny pack. Target makes EXCELLENT clutches for around $19.99. I swear someone will look at your bag and think you spent much more.
Another bag I like is the tote. Get it in purple! You can carry it to work and fit your laptop in it as well! The tote is HUGE and only $29.99.
Finally, Intuition is known for their Hollywood tape. They have cheaper box for Target for just $9.99. This is a great thing to have in the closet for a last minute hem, or to keep a bra strap up!
Check out the entire line here!

Finalists Named for Athletics Director Role
Feb. 27, 2013
Three individuals have been identified as finalists for the role of Nevada Wolf Pack director of athletics. They will visit the University of Nevada, Reno March 4-6 for a day-long series of interviews to allow athletics' coaches and staff, faculty, staff, students and community representatives to meet them. The schedule includes an open forum in the Auditorium of Legacy Hall with each finalist candidate.
The finalists and the open forum schedule are as follows:
Timothy Leonard, senior associate athletic director for external affairs at Southern Methodist University where he also served as interim director of athletics last year, and former assistant vice president for athletics development at University of Central Florida. Leonard's open forum will be Monday, March 4, 3-3:45 p.m.
John Johnson, senior associate director of athletics at Washington State University and former director of intercollegiate athletics at Weber State University. Johnson's open forum will be Tuesday, March 5, 3-3:45 p.m.
Doug Knuth, senior associate athletic director for external affairs at University of Utah and formerly assistant athletic director/director of major gifts at Michigan State University. Knuth's open forum will be Wednesday, March 6, 3-3:45 p.m.
A national search for the position was launched in December 2012 following the decision of current director of athletics, Cary Groth, to retire from her position. A search committee chaired by Bruce Shively, associate vice president for planning, budget and analysis, and coordinated by Janet Sanderson, assistant to the University president, identified the semi-finalists following interviews with a diverse pool of highly qualified candidates.
Joining Shively on the search committee are David Carter, head coach, men's basketball; Dave Croasdell, associate professor, accounting and information systems; Matthew Eck, associate athletic director, strength and conditioning; Shelly Germann, associate athletic director, sports medicine; Alex Hayes, student-athlete and president of Student-Athlete Advisory Committee; Ann Larson, director, Lawlor Events Center; Nancy Markee, associate professor, Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences; Maureen Marshall, director, athletics compliance services; Rhonda Lundin Bennett, associate athletic director, administration; Andrea Pearson, executive assistant; and Shantel Twigg, head coach, women's track and field.
The recommended candidate for the position will be forwarded by University President Marc Johnson to the Board of Regents for their consideration at a special meeting to be scheduled in the coming weeks.
"Wolf Pack Athletics is a significant enterprise and a point of pride, with a storied history and a strong connection to our communities, both on and off campus," Johnson said when announcing the search in December. "The opportunity to identify the University's next director of athletics marks an important time for the program."

T Moe
Women's Basketball
Junior T Moe made history during Friday night's season-opening win over UC Santa Barbara by collecting the program's first triple-double. The 5-8 guard kicked off her season by posting 19 points and career-highs with 12 rebounds and 11 assists to capture the feat, the 10th to be done in the Mountain West. Moe made a strong push for her triple-double in the second half of action, tallying 13 of her 19 points in that half. Nine of her 11 assists were passes inside that led to Nevada's dominance in the paint where the Wolf Pack outscored the Gauchos by 24 points.

A photo tour of Digital Realty's newest London datacentre
Summary: Digital Realty has opened up a new Tier 3 datacentre 17 miles south west of the capital.
5 of 6Image
Five data halls
Each data hall has staging workspace for technical operations, with lift access, power and cooling facilities throughout.
The vast data halls are also kept cool with the help of 14 CRAC (computer room air conditioning) units that can be found operating in an N+2 configuration (providing back ups) in each of the 10,000 square foot pristine data halls.
The datacentre halls are raised 4m above ground level and have an 800mm raised floor. The floor can take loads of up to 12.5KN/m².
The blue and orange units are used to house the power and networking feeds that enter the data halls from opposite ends of the building.
The datacentre is powered by a 1.4MW uninterruptible power supply (UPS) but it also has a dedicated 18MVA electricity sub-station based on site as a backup.
The Chessington datacentre has a power usage effieciency (PUE) of 1.2, compared to the global average of 1.8 and 1.89.
This is achieved in part by the cooling technologies used in the datacentre, which include three air cooled chillers that use free-cooling technology and operate in an N+1 configuration.
Holes in the floor of the datacentre halls are used to suck cold air into the front of the servers.
The servers emit hot air out of the back which is then guided to the large black air conditioning units and recycled.

The Mechanical SheathIn 1906, a man named Raphael Sohn invented what was essentially a chastity belt for dudes.
The way it works is that you're supposed to position it over your penis. It fits so snug, that it is then impossible to move off of your penis without "great physical pain and possible mutilation." And if you were to even TRY to remove it and miraculously (bloodily) succeed, it can't be replaced without the tiny, tiny key.
So basically, if you put this on and want it off, you'll either have to ruin your penis or NEVER lose a tiny, tiny, unique and life-changing key. Here's betting five bucks that douchebag guys in the early 20th century would take turns slapping people's keys out of their hands and into gutter then running away: the ultimate prank. *Shiver*l< << PREV 2 of 10 NEXT >>

The acclaimed Fox medical drama about a group of teenagers living together in the pediatric ward of a hospital will cease production on its first season after Episode 13, TVGuide.com has confirmed.
Questions about Red Band Society's future first emerged when Fox announced its midseason schedule, including the return of American Idol, The Following and Glee, but the Steven Spielberg-executive produced series was nowhere to be seen.

According to the New York Times, The majority opinion included photographs of inmates crowded into open gymnasium-style rooms and what Justice Kennedy described as 'telephone-booth-sized cages without toilets' used to house suicidal inmates.
A lower court in the case said it was 'an uncontested fact' that 'an inmate in one of California's prisons needlessly dies every six or seven days due to constitutional deficiencies.'
Three years later, the population is down by 23,500 — mostly accomplished by transferring prisoners to private and out-of-state prisons and county jails — and the state has won a series of postponements on the deadline.
State Attorney General Kamala Harris is on record as saying that the war on drugs is a failure.
Yes, well, that's a good question, although it does not address the issue of appalling conditions suffered by many prisoners, most particularly the mentally ill, who are often placed in solitary confinement, which drives people mad.
Lawyers for the prisoners commented: Defendants baldly assert that if the labor pool for their garage, garbage, and city park crews is reduced, then 'CDCR (the Department of Corrections) would be forced to draw-down its fire camp population to fill these vital MSF (Minimum Support Facility) positions.'
Sure, they have rights; we just can't remember what they are right now, and ooh, wait: high fire danger due to drought.
"The way that argument played out in court does not reflect my priorities," she said, adding that she fears that state lawyers taking that position will create more distrust in the criminal justice system.
Harris worried that heavily policed communities may suspect that the state has an "ulterior motive," especially when it seems that "the penalty may not be proportionate to the crime."
These are not murderers and rapists; these are nonviolent offenders who should be eligible for parole, who are nevertheless kept around because we need their prison-hardened bodies to do our scut work.

There's no need to wait for UK, the Bengals or any of the other college or NFL teams to start playing for real — the Bearcats do that tonight when they host Bryan Station in their season opener.
Kickoff is 7:30 at the high school. Admission is $5.
The Bearcats made it to the state finals last year and are expected to field a rugged team again this year under head coach Mark Peach.
For those who can't attend, follow sports editor John Herndon on Twitter at ANewsJPHerndon for live updates, and check back here for results following the game.
Tonight's game will also feature an appearance by members of the school's first district champions when members of the 1972 team are honored at halftime.
Tonight's game could be a barn-burner against speedy Bryan Station.
"They are like a team of Usain Bolts," Peach said when describing the Defenders. "If it were the 4x100-meter relay, we wouldn't have a chance, but we are playing football."
Click the sports tab for a full preview of tonight's game. For sports editor John Herndon's annual season preview, click on the special sections tab. Both are also available in this week's paper, available on newsstands across the county.

Not Bad for the Price
By Kristofer K. from Woodstock, GA on Oct 01, 2014
For the overall cost of the product, its quality isn't too terrible. It takes a while to assemble (to make sure it's sturdy) but, other than that, it works just fine!

Just what I needed
By Your Name from Indian Wells, CA on Jan 24, 2014
I bought these bar stools specifically because the were exactly the right size to tuck under a granite overhang on a kitchen island. I had looked at many other options none of which was acceptable. These stools have been used frequently by guests while food is being prepared and for quick meals. My only concern is their strength and possible longevity. At this price, I am not expecting the Rock of Gibraltar and simply hope they last for awhile.

When you hear "statement piece" from a woman about to attend a holiday party, she's normally talking about the large piece of jewelry she'll be wearing to attend said party. Perhaps a large or bright coral or clunky gold necklace, worn with a simple black dress. Besides calling attention to fantastic jewelry, wearing a statement piece is also a great way to pare down. The jewelry is doing all the meeting and greeting, charming the crowd, smiling at the babies- not much else needs to be done besides throwing on a shift underneath to serve as a platform.
It's the same with statement cheese for Thanksgiving.
When things are crazy and I'm working four days a week at the wine shop advising people on what wine goes with turkey in addition to working on writing samples, recipes, pitches, and projects galore at home, I like to simplify what I bring to Thanksgiving (which we all know will always be fromage). In general, serving cheese is a great way to reduce the amount of cooking one does for events because besides remembering to take out a wheel or wedge an hour or two before the party so it comes to room temp and arranging it on a plate, nothing else needs to be done.
And its possible to do even less with cheese but have it shine even more by serving fewer cheeses.
This is statement cheese.
Serving from four to five cheeses is lovely, but sometimes the glory of a wheel can get lost when tastebuds are overextended. So here goes: try serving one spectacular cheese with varied condiments on the side so people can explore the pick with different flavors and textures. They'll enjoy it on another level because they'll have time to appreciate its nuances- like when a woman wears an LBD and a great chainmaille necklace without any rings or earrings so the eye isn't distracted. Statement cheese likes all the attention too, and pairing it with sides keeps all eyes on it- a touch of sweetness here, a crunch there, a tart pairing here- shows different sides of the cheese.
Here's how to do it.
Statement Cheese Guide:
Pick one cheese. Make sure it's one of your favorites. Stellar. A statement.
Pair it with three to five sides.
Here are two examples.
A Blue Cheese
Like… Bay Blue, Avalanche Blue, Shaker's Blue, Stichelton, Roquefort
Candied or toasted pecans, sliced fresh pears, local raw honey, broken pieces of milk chocolate, pistachio cream.
Getting it? You're curating an experience.
A Soft Gooey Cheese
Forsterkase, Nettle Meadow Kunik, Harbison or Winnemere, Époisse (serve a whole wheel or large wedge)
Rose confit, honeycomb, toasted hazelnuts, bacon jam, broken pieces of white chocolate, persimmons
What's your favorite statement cheese?

A lot of people were surprised by the NCAA's decision to reinstate Auburn quarterback Cam Newton without penalty after a pay-for-play scheme involving his father Cecil, but few were as surprised as USC athletic director Pat Haden.
Haden took over a program in August that was handed some of the harshest NCAA sanctions in history after the parents of Reggie Bush were ruled to have accepted extra benefits from agents and would-be sports marketers.
"In the Reggie Bush case, when the parent [did] something inappropriate the kid and the school suffered," Haden told Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times.
He added: "I was always told the parent is the child. That's what we've been telling our kids. If the parent does something inappropriate the child suffers the consequences."
USC argued that it was unaware of any improprieties involving Bush's parents because they lived near San Diego, but the NCAA still put the hammer down on the Trojans.

Agencies may have more opportunities to award contracts to small firms owned by women because of the fiscal 2013 National Defense Authorization Act.
The NDAA removed the thresholds limiting the award price of a contract to be set aside for a competition among small firms owned by women. Prior to the new law, woman-owned small businesses (WOSBs) could not receive a set-aside contract whose value exceeded $6.5 million for manufacturing contracts and $4 million for all other contracts.
Without the limitations, WOSBs will have access to more contracts due to changes to the Small Business Administration's Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program.
The changes to the law made in the defense bill may allow agencies to boost their annual scores for setting contracts aside for women. Small firms owned by women received $16.8 billion in fiscal 2011, or 3.98 percent of all federal contracting. The goal is 5 percent. In fiscal 2010, those firms received 4.04 percent.
SBA Administrator Karen Mills said the government is allowing a more inclusive view of entrepreneurship. Women own 30 percent of all small businesses today, compared to just 5 percent four decades ago.
"As one of the fastest growing sectors of small-business owners in the country, opening the door for women to compete for more federal contracts is a win-win," she said.
SBA is working with the Office of Federal Procurement Policy on working the statutory changes into the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

Critical condition: Nashville health care needs cash, tech
The health care capitol's Achilles' heel
Send this to a friend
- E.J. Boyer
- Staff Reporter- Nashville Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Entrepreneurs and investors across the country are turning their attention to health care, driven by skyrocketing costs and new public awareness. Everyone, it seems, is looking for a chance to fix the complicated, heavily regulated industry.
But those eyes aren't looking at Nashville.
Middle Tennessee's lack of tech talent and venture capital are handicapping its largest industry.
The region's $70 billion health care services industry has earned Nashville the nickname "the Silicon Valley of health care." But experts warn that industry, built around hospital powerhouses HCA Holdings and Community Health Systems, is no longer enough to hold on to that title.
The city is lagging in capital and innovation. So as traditional tech hotbeds like Silicon Valley and Austin, Texas, turn their attention and wallets to health care, Nashville could be left behind — as a rising crop of talent, ideas and companies follow the money.
"When you think of Silicon Valley, you think of an industry, which is tech, you think of venture capital and … you think of innovation," said Dr. Harry Jacobson, a local health care investor and former vice chancellor for health affairs at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. "Nashville [just] has industry."
Without an abundance of venture capital, it will be harder for Nashville to grow and keep the type of companies the city needs to maintain its health care prestige.
"If you have an industry that has entrepreneurs that have new ideas about new products or services within that industry, [and] if smart capital is readily available … you will accelerate the development of new businesses," Jacobson said. "Not only will you accelerate the development of new businesses, which is an economic benefit to the community, but I think you will accelerate the innovation of ideas in health care."
Not our fair share
Health care services have been Nashville's bread and butter since 1968, when what is now HCA Holdings Inc. opened its first hospital. Today, facing thin margins, spiraling costs and empowered patients, the need to innovate in health care services has never been more pressing.
It's a type of innovation, though, that is more subtle than that in pharmaceuticals or medical devices, health care's two flashier sectors. It can mean establishing new ways to reach patients, like urgent care clinics or at-home dialysis, but increasingly, it means better use of information technology — exactly where experts say Nashville is lagging in innovation.
"Nashville is at the forefront of health care services when it comes to payers and providers," said Mohamad Makhzoumi, a partner at New Enterprise Associates, a Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm that invests in technology and health care companies. "Increasingly what I'm seeing, as an investor who's based in Silicon Valley but manages a number of health care companies in Nashville, is the health care IT component is rapidly getting a foothold here in Silicon Valley. … I'm seeing a lot more health care IT in Silicon Valley to be honest."
Makhzoumi's New Enterprise Associates is the largest venture capital firm in the country. The company is on its 14th fund, which it closed last year with $2.6 billion. In comparison, that's more than 35 times the amount of all of venture capital funds distributed in Nashville in 2012, according to a PricewaterhouseCoopers MoneyTree report, which tracks venture capital investments.
According to the same report, less than 3 percent of venture capital in the United States was invested in the Southeast. Silicon Valley received nearly half, or $11 billion, of the $26.9 billion in venture capital distributed in the United States last year.
Nashville companies received $72.3 million in venture capital investments last year, nearly all of the $80 million invested in Tennessee. Health care services companies claimed $16.8 million of that, a fraction of the $70 billion health care industry that Nashville has built.
"If you take inventory of the venture capital game, it's very, very small compared to the size of the industry," Jacobson said. "It's not that good local companies can't find money. It's that they can't find it locally."
Looking beyond Nashville
Take, for example, Shareable Ink, named a Gartner "Cool Vendor" in 2011, one of the most prestigous recognitions in the world of health care technology. Shareable Ink moved from Boston to Nashville in 2010, lured by $4.5 million in early-stage seed funding from a group of local investors through the state's TNInvestco program.
After averaging 300 percent revenue growth year over year, the company needed another capital boost for its product to keep pace.
But Nashville's money ran out, and last year, the company turned to Minnesota-based Lemhi Ventures to lead its next funding round. With that new influx of capital came new management, and although the company's headquarters remain in Nashville, it has recently expanded its office in Boston's Innovation District.
Having money sources close by, Jacobson said, creates better opportunity for management and investors to interact.
"It's both an execution risk mitigater and an accelerator," he said.
Jacobson's new fund, Epiphany Health Ventures, is geared specifically toward innovation in the delivery of health care services.
"Health care is an information-dependent, decision-making service business," Jacobson said. "Information technology can help with that."
Jacobson expects to close the first round of funding for Epiphany by the end of the year. To date, between his MedCare Investment and TriStar Technology Ventures fund, more than half of Jacobson's investments have been in Nashville companies — about 20 total, not all in health care.
Innovate or die
Jacobson is one of many, both established and new to Nashville, trying to spur innovation and plug more capital into the local health care industry.
It won't be easy, and it won't happen overnight.
"The challenges that exist in innovating around health care services is it's an industry that has been around for a really long time," Makhzoumi said. "There are enormously entrenched players."
Makhzoumi qualifies companies as innovative if they accomplish three things: improve access, quality and cost of care.
"It's no longer enough to do one of those things, or two of those things … you really have to do all three," he said. "It needs to resonate with the payer, provider and patient, and really be on the right side of reform."
Makhzoumi points to areas like Denver, Austin, the Washington, D.C./Virginia corridor and North Carolina's Research Triangle as examples of pockets of health care innovation emerging across the country. And, Silicon Valley itself is emerging as a health care IT hotbed, thanks to tech billionaires who have started venture capital funds geared toward social issues, like improving health care.
"We have pockets of innovation that are happening," said Tod Fetherling, chairman of Stratasan, a health care analytics company, and former president of the Nashville Technology Council. "In the context of health care technology, we are way behind."
Today's cover story is the first of a two-part package on innovation in Nashville's largest industry.
Part one looks at the missing pieces in Middle Tennessee's $70 billion health care industry: innovation and capital.
In the Oct. 18 issue, part two will focus on new initiatives tackling the challenge of innovating at large companies that make up Nashville's health care services industry. It also will include a look at Healthbox, the Nashville Entrepreneur Center's Jumpwerx program, the Nashville Health Care Council's Fellows program and HCA Holdings' venture capital arm.

Type O Blood And Celaic?

In years passed I never ate much meat but before celiac I was told I needed to eat some meat or more meat. After I learned to eat more meat I started to have more energy & felt a bit better. I now eat meat almost daily not alot but the appriorate amount.

Glutenous grains were introduced to North Europeans roughly 1200 to 1500 years later than in the rest of Europe.
The original "bread basket" was in Mesopotamia. Back then barley was the first glutenous grain used. It and the early forms of wheat had far less gluten than what is produced today. Ironically grain produced in the north has more gluten in it due to the shorter growing season.

My blood type is A+. If O blood types are more susceptible to Celiac, then that would make most the population of the world Celiac. It could be possible. There are more type O's in the world. O+ is the most common blood type. O- is the rarest.
While O- is rare than O+ and A+, it's not the rarest. B- and AB- are much much rarer.
As for the blood type diet, IMO it's pure nonsense.

I also know many medical professionals that do not eat wheat or gluten because it has been so altered that most do not digest it properly. If only we were cows with a couple of stomachs to digest this poison!!!!
I know we will never go back......

I do know that while many in my family either have celiac or are gluten intolerant, I am the only one that has type O blood--and I am a lot more sensitive than the rest of them.
Nevertheless, we all are related to everyone else, so its a bit of a genetic stew at this point as to whose blood type is what and whether or not they have celiac!
Meanwhile if you are North European or Italian, your chances go way up to have celiac; and in my opinion if you have type O blood too, it makes it even more likely. However I could well be wrong! No matter what though, being a vegetarian for such a person might be difficult at best.

We urge all doctors to take time to listen to your patients.. don't "isolate" symptoms but look at the whole spectrum. If a patient tells you s/he feels as if s/he's falling apart and "nothing seems to be working properly", chances are s/he's right!

Has anyone heard of the link between type O blood type and Celiac? A friend was told by a doctor that since she had type O blood, a gluten free diet might help her. Any news?
From a post by Mother of Jibril in an earlier thread:
"....according the American Red Cross, here's the prevalence of each blood type in the US population:
O pos - 38%
O neg - 7%
A pos - 34%
A neg - 6%
B pos - 9%
B neg - 2%
AB pos - 3%
AB neg -1%"
O+ is the most common type.
Please understand that there is absolutely NO clinical research that proves that this diet is valid.
The Blood Type diet was developed by a naturopath named Peter D�Adamo. This guy is NOT a medical doctor...he has a doctorate in naturopathy. His book, Eat Right For Your Blood Type, says the key to weight loss lies in a human�s blood type.
Which is absolutely ridiculous, if you ask me. You might as well base your diet on your eye color.
Don't get mad at me now!
I have A negative blood, and I have celiac disease. I do best on a low carb diet. I know this because I've tried literally everything. I know what D'Adamo recommends that I eat based on my blood type and it would NOT be good for me to follow his diet.
OK....that's my rant, and my 2 cents worth. I just don't want to see people get confused with stuff like the blood type diet.

I know I do And in many ways, not just digestive.
P.S. Everyone is descended from the same group of hunter-gatherers, and that likely means everyone will do best on the "paleo diet". Which means meat, veggies, and fruit. Period. No grains.
