For Previous Users of our Internet Class Calendar:
Each time we do this we learn a better way to do things. For example, if any of you were using the GCalendar/Internet Calendar RMStudents hosted last quarter and you added the calendar as a feed, you do not need to do anything to add a calendar this Spring quarter. This quarter we made it so your current calendars will update in the next few hours (for Google Calendar it may not be ready until Saturday) and you'll be ready to go next quarter. This includes the smaller preceptor group calendar!
For anyone who did not use the calendar last quarter and would like to this quarter, OR if you already deleted the old calendars, follow the instructions below:
First, choose how you want your Calendar to work: Feed or Local

March 4, Wednesday
Room 540, 12pm-1pm
Lunch will be provided
with speaker: Dr. Kamran Riaz, MD
Join us for a lunch discourse with Dr. Kamran Riaz. The topic is understanding Muslim patients.
There will be time for Q&A.
You may remember the event last quarter on patients of the Jewish faith; this lecture is a continuation on our goal to educate future health professionals on important cultural understanding. For this event our goal is to help familiarize future health care professionals with some common precautions or considerations they may need to take when dealing with patients of the Islamic faith, especially if such relations are cross gender.

Finally! Our website got a much-needed upgrade to Drupal 6. This has been a long time coming, but we didn't want to upgrade before knowing that all of the features we currently have implemented would work flawlessly. We've done a fair amount of checking to make sure that's the case, but just in case we missed something, leave a comment or use the Contact Form to let us know. In addition to keeping all of our old features, there's a few new ones that we have in store over the coming weeks and months. We look forward to showing them to you once they're perfected. Thanks again for your support and happy browsing from the RMstudents team!
Due to the problems we were having with our old webhost, we decided to move the website. We apologize for the extended down time, but we're hoping that this new host will be much better for us. You may experience a few intermittent problems over the next day or two as "the web" starts pointing "rmstudents.com" towards our new host. After that, hopefully things should be smooth sailing. Let us know if you're having any unexpected problems.
As many of you may have noticed, this website is spitting out strange error messages at the top of the page quite often. Also, we're getting (way too frequent) occasions where our site can't properly connect to its database. This is because we're currently having an issue with our web host, which we hope will resolve itself soon. If not, we will be migrating web hosts in the near future (although probably after midterms). Please bear with us during these messages and errors. Understand that we're doing our best to fix the problem in a timely manner. We hope that you will continue to use this site despite the errors, and we apologize for any inconveniece they cause you. Please bear in mind that they seem to follow no rhyme or reason, so if you're writing up something to post on here, please back it up before you submit it (just in case something does not go through). Thanks a lot, and we'll keep you informed!
Added Blueprints OB/GYN 2003, modified a few things, like the cervical cancer screening guidelines, which were recently changed since '03. Some new items: Psychiatric diagnoses (concise DSM criteria), teratogenic medications (pretty comprehensive overview), cerebral ischemia regions, etc.

I haven't been so happy with Battlestar Galactica but I'm very confident Avatar won't disappoint.
Also, this poster rocks.
So Intel has cut prices on its processors, some by 50%! For instance, the Q6700 (one model above my Q6600) sold for $530 just a month ago. That's actually why I went with the Q6600 (which I picked up for $200 at Microcenter), the only difference between the two is the multiplier on the Q6700 is x10, whereas the Q6600 is x9.
Well now Intel has cut the price from $530 to $266! Of course because of market forces the chip's actually selling for $300 (like on NewEgg)... but it wasn't that long ago that Intel announced a similar price cut on the Q6600 and it too sold at $300 and now it can be had for less than $200. There are also new Penryn Desktop (Wolfdale) chips announced like the e8300 which should be a sub-$200 45nm dual core chip.
In short, more bad news for AMD. Read More »
Anyone remember this scene from Robocop (there was no YouTube video):
If you remember, ED-209 then ripped Mr. Kinney a new one. Thus the Robocop program was made possible who ultimately took Dick Jones (OCP executive board member) down. Man I loved that movie. Read More »
It's scary how well Intel has been moving. For such a giant company they've become very organized and agile.
Anandtech takes on the e8500, and of course it is nothing short of amazing. 4.5Ghz on water cooling. I don't need that much speed, but boy do I want it. And here's more proof that Intel is pretty much "set" for the next 4-5 years. Even if they screw up this Intel Atom launch, and all the other things they're getting into, they can surely depend on this nice tick-tock model they've got going:
