Re: [Histonet] ub subscribe

[Peter Carroll]

sometimes, i feel like im stuck in some histonet unsubscribe timewarp. i hate 
it!

i really wish that the histonet admins would address this 'unsubscribe' madness 
once and for all. the periodic notices on how to unsubscribe arent working and 
sadly, the casual subscriber has proven that they dont know how to properly use 
a listserv...  someone needs to rethink how this list is administrated. i mean 
no offense, just constructive criticism. if theres any way any of us can help 
out, im sure many of us with various expertises would gladly volunteer, just 
say the word!

i am confident that i speak for all of us when i say that this repetitive, 
mindless unsubscribe business really detracts from the quality of my histonet 
experience, and theres no reason why we cant work together to fix it cone and 
for all :)

given how many people cant even figure out how to properly unsubscribe

Re: [Histonet] gurney cover

[Peter Carroll]

clear plastic sheeting (available at hardware stores for painting jobs, 
tarps, etc) might be an easier-to-find and more cost-effective alternative?

This goes way back in the early 90's but I think they have a person that

sorry... your boss is crazy! ;)

Nicholas Evans wrote:

Dear all,

In our lab our boss is adamant that we must clean and recycle old unmounted

driving us nuts, as the process of cleaning the slides is incredibly tedious
and labor-intensive - it is vital that the slides are spotlessly clean
before re-treating. We (when I say we, i mean the student lackies who get
drafted in the lab, not me, hoho) currently physically scrub them with
various solvents, such as citrisolve, acetone etc. we use Fisherbrand
Superfrost/plus slides.

Anyone got any ideas how to speed this up/automate – is there a machine

Re: [Histonet] "Email Spoofed." addresses were highjacked

[Peter Carroll]

> Boy!  Peter needs an Oxycontin!  Maybe more than one.

Since I've already apparently made the impression of being up tight, I 
may as well go on and also add that, on top of the ~15 off-topic emails 
we've already gotten concerning an email scam you fell for, I sort of 
feel that sending someone else's privately-mailed insult of a perfect 
stranger to an entire mailing list to be a bit, well, tactless.


Oh well, at least its friday, eh? :)







Akemi Allison-Tacha wrote:

Hi All,

The email below was sent to me in response to the Scam.  I guess someone from 
histonet contacted him regarding the scam, which was spammed.  It's interesting 
to find out how vulnerable we all are.  Yahoo's customer support has had high 
volumes of similar problems.

Akemi,

Boy!  Peter needs an Oxycontin!  Maybe more than
 one.

Don't worry about this.  The correct term is being "Email Spoofed."  From my friends, it happens when some 
computer hijacker either creates content on a new or existing web site that you ended up clicking on.  Peter suggests 
it is "Where" you visited, but it could be anywhere, even on a legitimate site.  Some people I've talked to 
think Microsoft's web page is loaded with "Spoof" and "Spyware!"

Sometimes, it is a computer worm or virus affecting your computer.  Most of the 
time, it is associated with your email
 provider.  [Most of my friends with Yahoo email have been "Spoofed."]  

I would run a up-to-date anti-virus software, and (especially if that doesn't help) ask for help from Yahoo to quarantine or fix your address.  


You probably have it fixed already.  If
 not, it will do it again until someone stops it.  It IS only email.  So what???

Hi All,
I received an e-mail and an early morning call from my friend Helen Hedor this morning stating that she received a e-mail scam from me stating; "FISHING FOR MONEY".  I did in NO WAY send this e-mail!  Please do not in anyway answer or send money to the bogus e-mail scam which was sent in my name.  THIS IS SCARY!  
I don't know what has happened, but I came home last night and my yahoo account sent me an e-mail which stated that my e-mail has been compromised for scam purposes, and if I didn't answer the questions below I would have my account frozen.  I immediately replied and answered the questions, but then I thought, what if this is a scam to extract personal information, so I copied the the questionnaire and sent it to the yahoo alert center.  I received a reply that they would check into it.  This morning I couldn't get into my e-mail account so I had to jump a bunch of hoops and reset my password.  I hope none of you have this happen to you.

The Yahoo Account warning stated: "Yahoo Mail has discovered series of illegal 
attempts on your Yahoo Account from bad Ip Location and will shut your account as it has 
been flagged as a spam account. Filling Correct Information Carefully and Sending to

I hope this was legitimate!  The information they wanted was my user name,

I guess that's the problem. As a non-commercial list, the ratio should 
be more like 100/0.


> I don't know if you're from Ventana or Daka or whomever

I'm "from" neither and actually use no products by either of those 
vendors, nor yours. I joined Histonet to give/get histology advice on 
protocols and laboratory procedure, not to constantly be barraged- both 
on and off list- by vendors trying to push their products, no matter how 
subtly.


Although they may not violate any specific "letter of the law" on 
Histonet, commercial posts or tie-ins, no matter how tasteful or 
friendly, do definitely violate the "spirit" of the list, at least in my 
eyes.


Just my two cents...

Sheila, I apologize to you and Peter and to whomever else I have offended.  


I view Histonet as a place where people can go for knowledge and where
people can share their experiences.

I was trying to share my experience with LIS systems and information system
technology in general.  I do admit that I had one paragraph in there about
our own product, but I was trying to illustrate a point.  I thought I had
spent a bit of time talking about Ventana and Dako and as you've read my
other posts, you've seen me mention Leica and others as well.  I always talk
about things from an information technology perspective.  That's what I do
and that's what I believe I am good at.  I don't know if you're from Ventana
or Daka or whomever, but please notice that I stated I have no problems with
what you guys are doing.  In fact, I applaud you for filling a very needed
role in the industry.  In other posts I've perhaps compared Leica and
Ventana, but I've only done so from an information
technology/interface/labeling perspective.  I know very little about the
chemistry involved and therefore I am not qualified to say which instrument
is better suited for the task.

I think everyone should ask more of their LIS vendors.  In that way everyone
benefits.  But, how do people know what to ask for if they don't know that
certain things are possible.  I was hoping to encourage people to ask for
further functionality from their LIS vendors... and yes, I fully admit that
there was some component of publicity.  However, I do feel like it was 90/10
or 80/20 knowledge vs publicity.

So, please forgive me I offended anyone, but I still think there are a lot
of information technology aspects that people are not aware of and that a
majority of people would like to learn about.  Everyone will notice that I
always publish all of my contact information and my company name.  I'm not
trying to 'sneak something' by anyone.  Competition is good for everyone.
Is it not? 



And finally, Sheila, I wouldn't call you 'wrong'.  You've got an opinion and
I respect it.  I just disagree.  I'll shut up now, and if you or anyone else
would like to talk to me please feel free to do so.  (My contact information
is below, but to make my email address more obvious, it is
m...@pathview.com)


P.S.  We're at APIII at the end of September.  NSH is roughly 2 weeks after
that.  It's hard for us to be at both conferences and APIII is more computer
oriented so we thought it would be a better fit for us.  If you happen to be
there, please come by.  You don't even have to mention your name.  I'd love
to hear some comments on our system.  The more we hear, the better our

Hi Michael, 


I have been reading with great curiosity your postings on Histonet.  Other
vendors have been shot in the knees for doing what you appear to be doing!
You are openly soliciting!  


I personally don't care to read your opinions about the various LIS and LEAN
based systems that are available - only because I view you as a direct
competitor!  Your system may be as great you tell us - but I see it as a
sales pitch. 


If you want to sell to histologists - you had best be at NSH.  That would
allow histologists to view your product right next to your competitors.  

I may be wrong, and if I am please correct me.

Since we're on the subject, I also wish vendors would stop searching the 
Histonet Archives for certain keywords involving their products, then 
cold-calling/emailing/spamming people who posted/replied to said threads 
with sales-pitches. For example, not to name names (Renee Schultz at 
Thermo-Fisher) but someone recently wrote me a series of 
sales-soliciting emails, explaining that they were "following up on an 
earlier conversation" we had had. Since I tend to remember actual 
conversations I've had (and her name/inquiry didn't sound familiar), I 
questioned her, and she freely admitted to perusing the archives and 
actually maintaining a sort of database of our comments on this list to 
use for future sales pitches... one of which I received... 6 months 
after the fact... despite the fact that I was answering someone else's 
question about a product, not complaining about it or searching for a 
new vendor myself!

Dear Histonetters: 
I got the message below privately from one of the list members and (with

Dear Linda: 
Matthew Semovoski [histosea...@gmail.com] posted this on Histonet this 
AM: Hey everyone,  I am looking at getting some supplies for a new 
histology lab. Has anyone ever purchased from Gorilla Scientific? 
www.GorillaScientific.com  I just got a flyer in the mail from them and 
it seems like they have some really good prices. I think I can save a 
lot on my slides if I purchase from them. Has anyone else on here 
purchased anything from them?  Thanks,  Alex histosea...@gmail.com 
Well it was not Alex who posted it was Matthew Semovoski who posted this 
& he is the man who answers the phone when you call up Gorilla 
Scientific. I as a sales person play fair & do not try to do any slick 
sales adds on histonet & wanted to make you aware of this. (I really am 
such a geek & LOVE TO LEARN from Histonet too!) So I really do want to 
thank you for all of the hard work that you do & just wanted to make you 
aware of this instance. Thank you so much & have a great weekend! 



I don't want to turn this into a major discussion but would like to 
remind everyone that we run Histonet using University of Texas resources 
and they would not appreciate (or support) its use for commercial 
advertising even if it is disguised in a misleading message. Thank you,

straight to "Are you crazy?" not even three paragraphs later. This is 
classic trolling at its finest... congratulations Ford! I'll be sure to

comes across the list (i,e: "please unsubscribe me!") I can refer to 
yours as a good example of "how not to reply to such a huge, helpful 
list". Lol...




fro...@bitstream.net wrote:

Dear Jennifer and any other Histonetters that are of like mind,

It's not quite "Flaming Friday" yet, but it will be in just a few hours,
so I'll go ahead a little early with what I hope is a reply that may
enlighten, be consultative, and hopefully not too offensive to those that
may be sensitive to such replies. Here it goes...

My First Question: You state that your lab has “purchased all used
equipment”.  What vendor did you purchase from that did not provide
operator’s manuals with the equipment?  This is unheard of amongst us
reputable used/refurbished equipment dealers so if I were you, I would not
recommend this vendor to others.

Now let’s make sure that I have the facts straight... You have posted a
request that is seeking charity from members of this list that also
includes vendors.  In addition, not only are you asking for free copies of
publications that have been copyrighted and are the proprietary
information of the manufacturers that, at great R&D expenditure developed
them, but you are asking that the donor(s) mail hard copies (if available)
to you ...at the donor’s expense for the shipping & handling.  Should
hard-copies not be available, you request the donor(s) to provide these
lengthy documents in digital PDF format... again with a substantial
expense to the donor(s) of converting these publications into digital
form.  Surprisingly, you have made this burdensome and expensive request
without any offer to reimburse the charitable donor(s) for their time and
expense to do all of this work for you.  In your final statement you then
wistfully hope that some benevolent vendor should raise their hand and
offer you a (free) copy and then insult that same vendor buy stating that
you “won’t hold your breath for that”.

My Second Question:  Are you crazy?

>From your signature address; it appears that you are employed by a company
called Halozyme Therapeutics.  A quick web search informs us that Halozyme
is a for-profit California company that had revenues in the tens of
millions in 2008.  It was also exciting to learn that Halozyme is in Phase
2 clinical trials of their innovative insulin-PH20 with individuals that
suffer from Type 1 diabetes.  Very impressive.

Here is some good news for you.  I happen to have ALL the operator manuals
for the equipment that you are requesting.  I will copy them for you and
send them to you at my expense under one condition.  You state that if
someone can do this for you that you “will repay the favor, if at all
possible”.  I have a family member that is a Type 1 insulin-dependent
diabetic.  All I ask in return is that you arrange with your marketing
department that they send me a one-year’s supply of PH20 when it is
released to the public...  all at no charge, including shipping & handling
of course.

My Third Question:  Do we have a deal?

I look forward to your reply,

Hello Everyone.



I our lab we've purchased all used equipment.  None of these instruments
came with a user's manual.  I am in need of a manual (hard-copy or PDF)
for the following:



Sakura Tissue-Tek VIP 3000

Leica Jung Histo Embedder

Microm HM335E Microtome



I do realize that requesting a copy of these is a lot to ask of someone.
It takes a lot of time to copy a 50-page manual.  I'll repay the favor,
if at all possible.  I'm hoping that a vendor may raise their hand and
offer a copy?  I won't hold my breath for that...



Thanks everyone.

Hi

Re: [Histonet] Please help! In dire need of user manuals

[Peter Carroll]

since the vip 3000 was dinscontinued sometime late last century, id say 
finding a manual from its vendor is gonna be hard...

It would be interesting if they wouldn't provide manuals for their
equipment, used or not.

Hi Andi, Happy Friday!
I know there's been a "Histogel backlash" of late, but I would still
recommend trying it. I haven't had any problems. We use it for scant
neuro specimens every day. We also have used H.G. for mouse sural nerve
biopsies that needed to retain orientation (very tiny). If you do use
Histogel, do not put it in a histoscreen or biopsy cassette and be sure
to put it on a process that's long enough. People often use the
cassette/process based on the size of the tissue, not of the Histogel
block. I'd ask thermo for a sample of H.G. and try it. If you need any
Histogel help, let me know. I'm a huge fan!
Have a great day,
Jennifer

Good Morning!
In keeping with the weirdness of the projects I get in this lab today 
my question is about processing mosquito GI tracts.
I have a processing schedule - that is not the problem. I'm wondering 
if anybody out in histoland has a suggestion for what kind of 
cassette to use. I was thinking of the histoscreen cassette because 
these GI tracts are so thin (I think thinner than a hair)and I don't 
want to wrap them or use sponges because I'm afraid that I'll loose 
them or crush them.

Any ideas?

I have to disagree.  Although it certainly is not environmentally friendly 
to

dispose of formalin down the drain, it is not prohibited.  At the hospital
where I worked, a city inspector came to the lab and and designated in
writing how many gallons of formalin could be put in the sewer system per 
day
and we had to keep a written log of how many gallons we could dispose of 
and

could not go over our amount or we would be fined.

Hi All,
We have a question regarding the disposal of formaldehyde. We were told at
our hospital that a consultant said it was okay to dump formaldehyde down 
the
drain. I believe they said it was okay to dump 15 gallons or so a day! We 
are
not to fond of this idea and would like to know what everyone else is 
doing.

How is everyone disposing of their formaldehyde? We would be especially
interested in what other hospitals in CT are doing.

Re: [Histonet] RE: testing cutting ability--This is starting to ReallyAnnoy me.

[Peter Carroll]

> Jeez, are clinical histopath labs just sweat-shops?

Pretty much. Having spent years doing path at a huge local hospital 
which featured a slave-driving lab director who was less qualified to 
run the lab than half the people working in it, I must say that I agree 
with this observation.


At the same time, as much as I enjoy my more laid-back research path 
position now, I'd get fired in a heartbeat if I produced only one block 
every 30 minutes. Actually, I just got finished doing closer to 40 in 
the last hour, and today was a fairly slow day (yet not at all on par 
with the old clinical stats, were 8-12 techs embedded/sectioned closer 
to 800-1000 blocks per shift).

All this talk of having people actually section as part of the interview process is offensive to me. 


I have hired and trained lots of histotechnologists.  Mostly I train them 
myself, from scratch, but sometimes I hire them pre-trained.  Then of course, I 
re-train them anyway so they can do the work to the specs of my lab.  Any 
deficiencies they have will be corrected through training.  By me.

At my University there is a formal 30 day (maybe it's longer, I can't recall) 
probationary period for new hires.   That's good enough.  Why in the world 
would I need to have them section as part of an interview process?

I am also offended by the "blocks per hour" language.  Partly it's because in 
my lab we do exhaustive serial sectioning, so I consider a tech who gives me one block 
every half-hour to be doing a good job.

Maybe it's different in clinical work, but...20 blocks per hour?  And you expect quality work?  


Jeez, are clinical histopath labs just sweat-shops?

It's no wonder histopathologists feel overworked and underappreciated.

Subject: Re: [Histonet] RE: testing cutting ability during an interview


I for one always required any applicant to prepare 20 slides stained with H&E. I can 
assure that I selected "difficult" blocks to cut and the applicant was required to 
sign a disclaimer that included that s/he he knew how to section and avoid injuries.
The whole process was timed (to get a first idea about productivity) and I 
evaluated and graded the slides at the end.
The results were used as one of the elements to decide about offering the 
position (the fundamental) but I waited until all the applicants had completed 
the tests so sometimes the applicant had to be contacted a few days later to 
let him/her know about the results.

I have a question about the following statement plucked from a recent digest.
What are the legal ramifications if a person cuts themselves during an
interview? 
We've had this discussion at my place of employment and came to the

decision that it would leave us open to a legal liability.
I would love to hear some discussion on this subject, as well as any
experiences that others have had.

Greetings fellow hsitology professionals. 


In today's economic climate, many of us are finding ourselves faced with
changes in our policies, staffing, spending, etc. 


To that end I have started a histology blog.

This is a place to see what is happening in other labs and to share your
own comments. 


This blog is meant to be TEMPORARY in nature. IT IS NOT MEANT TO REPLACE

has a long history of serving our community world-wide.

It is a place where threads can be long, unfettered and anonymous.

Allowing anonimity will free us to feel comfortable in our expressions.

People will need to register in order to comment.  However, you choose
your username and password. A real e-mail address is also needed, but if
it is generic,, that is, does not contaiin your name or institution,
that is fine. (example: t...@hotmail.com) 


The e-mail will only be used to contact you concerning this site and to
send you data once it has been compiled. It will not be sold or used iin
any other fashion.

All registered users will be allowed contributer status.

We hope to hear from clinical, research, and veterinary histologists,
pathologists or administrators.

Sales and staffing professionals are also most welcome.

Every 30 days or so the accumulated data will be shared with each
subscriber in the hopes that our profession might benefit from our
collective wisdom and experiences.

I am not collecting this info for any personal gain, nor is there any
other motive than that of helping out our profession.

Hi,
  Speaking of Fluoro Jade: I don't do this often and after having done the
stain recently I was left with a lot of extra Fluoro Jade stock solution.
The data sheet says this is only good for a week or so making it a dang
expensive test! For non-diagnostic use of course, could the rest be
aliquated and frozen (-80 C) to use later?

Thanks,

Hi Michael,

Yeah, I can see how that would be annoying to you.  If you get a solicitation 
call at work that bugs you--tell them to buzz off.


I don't know that you ought to let it hurt your feelings or something, though.

In the world of business, it is reasonable to expect that head hunters are at 
all times seeking to hire your best and brightest out from under you--the way 
to stop them is by making it worth people's while to stick around.

To my knowledge, histotechnologists are, as a rule of thumb, over-worked and 
under-appreciated.

And yet they are darn handy to have around.


I suggest that you make it your personal mission to ensure that your histotechs ARE NOT 
looking for another job.  That way, when a recruiter calls, your techs say "Leave my 
current position?  What are you crazy??!!!"

Subject: [Histonet] Offended

I Wanted to obtained opinions of Managers/Supervisors in the histo world and how you handle situations 
regarding recruiters calling directly into Pathology Labs to specific tech's and stating they are seeking 
referrals for job placements. I recently had an AP staffing solution company call one of my labs to talk to 
any "histologist"  I felt was to recruit staff.  I feel this is an unprofessional practice to call 
directly into the laboratory and to hide behind the wording "referrals" when actually it appears 
they are trying to get information from the tech on the phone seeing if they are looking for a "new 
job".  I feel that this is an intrusion as well as inappropriate in our line of business and we are not 
in the business to give referrals to companies in the staffing solution arena for their monetary gain as well 
as trying to entice  our staff. What the staff does with these types of companies on personal time is their 
business, however, I think it is offending for companies to demonstrate this behavior.  If anyone would like 
to know which company and person called into my lab I will personally inform you on private email!
