I agree, The Dead Word is a very strong album. I'm not convinced I would call it Devon's best DST work yet (the first album is very good and sounds a bit more original), but this is certainly the heaviest DST album. And on most days, heavier is better.

This whole affair has suddenly gone from ridiculous to ludicrous. "Yes. We're gonna have to go right to, Ludicrous Speed."
My respect for you has just gone up a few notches, mate. That means a lot Maso.
I don't know why, but I realized today that lately I have been all out of sorts. I have made a number of uncharacteristically rude comments online (at other sites), have been quick to anger at times, and just generally unpleasant. I wish I knew why, so I could put a stop to it. I suppose I will just have to try harder. Though letting it out now and then sure is fun. . .
Monday Morning Apocalypse Artist: Evergrey Year: 2006 Click here for the artist's site Sweden's Evergrey have carved out quite a niche for themselves. I can think of no other band that really comes close to their brand of somewhat progressive, dark and melancholic power metal. And with t
And, I think I pretty well addressed the 24 hour shifts in the original post.
But you can easily work 80 hour weeks (I have - just not in medicine) without working 24-36 hour shifts. That is what has most people worried. Well, 36 hour shifts are a thing of the past. They are simply not allowed. As mentioned, 24 is now the max you can actually engage in patient care. But the 24 hour shift is part of t
My articles are not showing on new articles, and even with replies it is not showing in forums at all. Yep, same here Modman. I also reiterate the post that stated that the RSS feeds for all of JU have not updated in a month now (March 17th is the most recent article that shows up in RSS aggreg
I had heard all the stories. 100+ hour weeks, staying up for 40 hours straight, not seeing your family for days. The thoughts of a career in medicine frightened me. I also thought it was all ludicrous, the holdover traditions of an archaic, out-of-date and out-of-touch system. It was all about paying your dues to enter this boy's club. They did it, so you have to as well if you ever want to be accepted. I was positive it was another in a long series of ho
I read somewhere that the reason these archane shifts are still in existence is because senior physicians had to work them and feel that since they worked them, their juniors should have to work them too. I dunno how accurate that is..... I would be a liar if I didn't say that was part of it. But it is only part, and I have come to reali
ID: Sorry, I didn't see your post when I posted mine (over at my blog, but it did get syndicated here).
Sweet! No wonder microsoft is pooping adobe cubes! No doubt. I swear, the second this will sync with my PocketPC, goodbye Outlook!
That is one thing I will never understand. The abuse of interns and residents. This may sound weird, but I have an article brewing defending it. Stay tuned! (Yes, I am still awake, going on hour 40 now)
30 hour call is a fascinating thing (fortunately it wasn't quite a full 30!). It does weird things to your head. I walk into the unit in the morning, talk to the nurses who are approaching the end of their 12 hour shift. They leave and a new batch comes on. You then spend the next 12 hours working with them. That is not an insignificant amount of time. But then they go home. And you are still there. Wearing the same scrubs you had on
But I would like to say that it is a perfectly safe place, if you know what you're doing. I think that is the crux of it there. Like the internet in general, there are far too many who don't know how to use it, yet they use it still. Sounds like your MySpace page might actually be tolerable.
I found this thanks to my good friend Stanton . He pointed out that Google Calendar is no up and running. My schedule is such that I don't use a calendar that much, but this looks like it has a lot of potential. I love being able to drag on the small map and have that date range show up automatically. The Quick Add feature is great as well. Not too sure yet on the sharing
do I get to call you drdev? Modman, you can call me whatever the heck you want.
Enjoy it man. It never lasts long enough. The next thing you know, BAM, it is summer.
But after reading this I feel really guilty about emailing you at all. Sorry very busy drdad. No worries Trina. I will respond soon. By the way, how did you get cool enough to be sent actual albums to revie
Karmacode Artist: Lacuna Coil Year: 2006 Click here for the artist's site Before Evanescence made it cool to be a rock band with a female lead singer, Lacuna Coil had already polished the sound with five solid releases. Too few people knew of the band, but that would soon change. With intelligent
Hey Dyno! Just wanted to say I was sorry I missed you as well. I totally understand that you had to go! Hope all went well, and if you are up in these parts befroe June 12th, give me a ring!
-Writing so Dis Con Nec Ted. . . A great song, by the way. Understated, incredibly thunderous bass, and almost uncomfortably restrained vocals, it is one of my Rychian favorites. -Back from Houston. What an incredible experience. It was life altering. Okay, so I am full of crap. It was awful. Not in a really bad sort of awful way, just in a "I spent $1000, plus $500 in airfare, $160 in hotel and $35 for a car just so I could take this i
Thanks again for all the hard work from the team. I greatly appreciate the service provided by the site.
Congratulations Gideon. It is always valuable to have those important skills.
What a wonderful surprise. The offset (and auto distance) options are something I have been hungering for for months now. Really appreciate the stellar update Jeff!
