The City of Rogers
Photo of the Month
in July: A Look Back at Santa's Rocket
By: Nathan Redman, Research Assistant
In October of 1957 the Soviet Union launched the world's
first man-made satellite, Sputnik 1, which marked the
starting point of a space race that would last the next
decade and a half. By 1962 the world was in a space frenzy
as the United States and the Soviet Union entered the race
for the moon. References to space can be found throughout
the American popular culture of the 1960s, from children's
cartoons such as "The Jetsons" to "Tang," the world's first
space-age beverage.
It seemed that everyone was taking part in the space-race,
even Santa Clause was trading in his reindeer for rockets.
During the 1960's Santa visited Rogers several times in his
"Super Rocket." The Progressive Merchants Association funded
Santa's Operation, and with a free coupon from one of the
participating businesses, children could board Santa's space
age sleigh and ride around Frisco Park during the holiday
The original super rocket was 42 feet long, 8 feet wide,
made of aluminum, trimmed in red and blue, and proudly
flying the official flags of the North Pole. It was equipped
with a full crew, seating for 65, and a speaker system to
listen to Santa. As is typical of the space race, by 1964
Santa had the brand new upgraded Rocket Sleigh pictured in
this photograph from the Rogers Democrat December 2, 1964.
Inset in the corner of the photo is a scan of a coupon for a
ticket for one free ride with Santa in his ship; this coupon
was recently donated to the museum by Debbie Lynch.

Study: South Shore bays are polluted
< Previous page 1 2 3 4
(Page 4 of 4)
But Denenberg added that South Shore waterways couldn't wait 15 years to have heightened protection. That's why, he said, the county should complete projects at treatment plants that were funded years ago. The county has allocated $700 million for sewage treatment plant infrastructure improvements since 2007, Denenberg said, including adding a third treatment level at the Bay Park and Cedar Creek plants, ammonium removal, enhanced odor control and replacement of pumps at Bay Park. But $400 million in the five-year plan remains unused, he said.
Noting that the Bay Park pumps that failed during Hurricane Sandy were supposed to have been replaced two years ago, Denenberg said that the public should urge county lawmakers to use the funds and carry out the plan while the TMDL studies and document preparation continue.
"These studies are only confirming what we know, so why wait?" he said. "I will continue to advocate that these projects that have already been planned and designed and in our capital plans for years be implemented and completed."
Stony Brook and Battelle plan to submit final reports on their studies to the DEC in April, Holdridge said. She noted that total funds allocated to develop data to support the TMDL document, which will cost $300,000 to prepare, exceed $1.6 million.

There's a video that keeps popping up on my newsfeed as I Facebook creep on my friends. You may have seen it already—the grainy footage of Joshua Bell, a famous violinist, playing an expensive ass violin in a DC metro station. Hordes and hordes of morning commuters pass him by save for one woman who happened to see him the night before at some schmancy concert hall.
Typically, somebody will post the vid to be inspiring in a tough love kinda way. Stop and smell the roses, jerks! There's so much life you might be missing out on! Please pass this vid along to 5 friends or be cursed with soul rot forever!!
And while that parable is a valid one, I think the video does a better job illustrating of some very basic principles of messaging and branding.
Hear me out.
Branding lesson 1: CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING
Joshua Bell was killin' it on the violin and you know what? Nobody gave a shit.
This guy is a fucking virtuoso and his mastery wasn't enough to get people interested in what he was doing. And all he was trying to do was get people to listen to him!
Hence point numero uno, CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING.
There's a reason why foreplay and opening acts exist. If you want something to be memorable, you need to put people in the right mood. Your product or service can't just be excellent (although that certainly helps). You have to make sure your excellence connects with people at the right time and the right place.
Even if you're providing a free experience (and do I love me some free shit) it's always better to wrap said experience within the appropriate context. Let's be real. Who wants listen to a famous concert violist in a dirty, loud, crowded subway station when you're running late for work? Call me crazy, but I'd rather listen to a dude like Joshua Bell perform in a gorgeous symphony hall where the bathrooms are bigger than my apartment and the programs are printed on thick ass cardstock.
You get the point. If all you're doing is being excellent but not taking context into consideration, you're fucked.
Which is unfortunate considering,
Branding lesson 2: MOST PEOPLE DON'T GIVE A SHIT.
They really don't.
People only give a shit if you make their lives easier in the following three ways: 1.) if you save them money, 2.) if you save them time, 3.) if you somehow help them get laid and/or find love. Tree of trust, how many times have you spent money, or seriously considered spending money, on something that promised to do one of those three things?
Now, not only was Joshua Bell out of context, he didn't offer any of those three things. It's no wonder he didn't draw a crowd! If time is money, why should anyone stop and listen to a guy with a vague value-exchange? I mean, it's not like he was playing dubstep or whatever the hell kids are listening to nowadays (p.s. who else thinks dubstep is the devil's Morse Code?).
Let's translate this thought into branding. Of all the products and services you come into contact with in a given day, how many of them do you actually give a shit about? Yeah? Me neither.
It's easy to get lost in marketing jargon and forget that people don't really care about brands. They use brands.
Let's not confuse mindless usage for an actual relationship.
This brings me to,
Branding lesson 3: IF PEOPLE DO HAPPEN TO GIVE A SHIT, TREAT THEM WELL. REALLY, REALLY WELL.
If you're a brand, an excellent brand, there has to be at least ONE person out there who is gonna like you. There are too many people crowding this earth for that to not be a reality.
If you're fortunate enough to have multiple brand evangelists who are willing to spread the good word about you to alllllll of their friends and their friends' friends, the least you can do is find those precious gems and thank them. With sincerity.
Make them feel special.
Your brand's health depends on the positive associations it has in people's minds. And at the end of the day, you're only as good as people perceive you to be.
So what the hell was this all about?
Well, if you're a brand DON'T be the Joshua Bell playing in a subway, trying to give your shit out for free to people who don't want it. DO be the Joshua Bell playing in a venue with bangin' acoustics, demanding premium pricing and giving people a memorable experience they'll brag to their friends about.

Black Friday liveblog: Online deals or brick-and-mortar sales?
Sales tax may be hurting Amazon's bottom line, but overseas, online sales have been booming on similar shopping holidays.
Update 2:30 p.m.Skip to next paragraph
Subscribe Today to the Monitor
Amazon's Black Friday deals will be hard to beat this year, as usual. But will new rules requiring the online merchant to collect sales tax in certain states affect its ability to price match? Read the Monitor's analysis.
RELATED: Are you a smart shopper? Take our quiz.
Update 2:15 p.m.
The United States isn't the only country that goes crazy for Black Friday - but China has their own shopping extravaganza that comes a little earlier in November. They call it 'Singles Day', and while it is ostensibly for giving gifts the gift-buying goes all out.
Update 12:08 p.m.
Many Black Friday news reports offer tips on finding the best bargains, and others extol holiday shoppers as engines of economic growth. But there also exists a lesser-known third genre of Black Friday journalism, which mostly consists of pointing a finger at the frenzied masses streaming through shopping aisles and shouting, "Suckers!"
They have a point, sort of. A press release from Decide.com, a website that tracks price changes on electronics and appliances and predicts bargains (with 77 percent accuracy, the company claims) advices shoppers to sleep in on Black Friday.
"Nine of the 11 major consumer product categories averaged a lower price leading up to Black Friday, the week after Black Friday or the week before the Christmas holiday," says the press release. "Overall, shoppers save a substantial amount of money on popular products by skipping Black Friday and Cyber Monday."
Still, it depends on what you're buying. Decide.com notes that Black Friday is a good day to pick up an Xbox 360, a PS3, or an original Wii, for instance.
More importantly, for Black Friday isn't just about the bargains. For many shoppers, it's just fun to be part of a huge crowd. Those who hit the malls at midnight are driven in part by the same impulse that drives a million people gather in Times Square each New Year's Eve. We humans are pack animals.
Well, at least half of us are. The National Retail Federation predicts that up to 147 million Americans will shop over Thanksgiving weekend. And the half of our population that stays home this weekend will no doubt gape at these frenzied masses in incomprehension. Which is fair enough: We don't have to live alike to love alike.
-- Eoin O'Carroll
Updated 10:37 a.m.
Shoppers who hit the stores on Black Friday are promised great bargains, and, if news reports are any indication, they are also offered something more abstract: the assurance that, by snapping up TVs, video games, and laptops, they are helping the US economy.
In a story that ran on Sunday titled "Will Black Friday save the economy?" CBS MoneyWatch spelled out what's at stake:

Thomas Cook CEO: How loss made me fearlessJuly 1, 2013: 11:51 AM ET
Harriet Green says her inclination toward challenge stems from her father's lost battle to cancer.
FORTUNE -- At London's Claridge's Hotel, Harriet Green sips on a cup of tea. She'll be on stage in an hour to speak at a Fortune Most Powerful Women event. Her outfit -- all black, complemented by a leopard scarf and matching heels -- injects some flavor into the dark-hued Map Room. Green seems to have a talent for that. Since becoming CEO of Thomas Cook last July, she's spiced up the struggling British travel brand and saved it from collapse.
Though initially skeptical, investors now seem to trust Green's vision for the 171-year-old company. The stock, which hit an abysmal £0.14 last summer, dipped even lower upon her announcement as CEO of the company (she has no experience in travel). Since then, she's won over shareholders by focusing on key decisions like firing and hiring, bringing in McKinsey as a management consultant, driving Thomas Cook's new strategy to trigger profitable growth, and launching that strategy to the capital markets to refinance the business (it raised £1.6 billion in May). Green's now been at the company for 336 days, and the stock's up to over £1.2.
"I had tens and tens and tens of calls from other CEOs, from the press, saying, 'What are you doing? Why would you do this?'" Green recalls, citing the obvious risk in joining Thomas Cook. But the company intrigued her – its solid gross margins, scale, and brand – and she reached out to the chairman directly. "It was a really good business with a terrible balance sheet." She knew nothing about travel, but convinced Frank Meysman that her transformation expertise as CEO of electrical component distributor Premier Farnell, where she grew its virtually nonexistent web business from 12% to over 55%, primed her for Thomas Cook's top job.
MORE: Only the wealthy feel economic recovery
This isn't the first time Green's willingly jumped into an uncomfortable position. She spent the bulk of her career at Arrow Electronics (ARW), which acquired over 70 companies between the early-eighties and the mid-nineties. She often took on the jobs that didn't interest the golden bulls – "the group of very talented guys who want to do the conventional thing," she says – and then-CEO Stephen Kaufman pushed her to stretch herself. "I tend to pick the people or the situation that I want to work for, rather than, 'Is this going to be good for my career?'" Green explains. While at Arrow, she brought together over 20 acquisitions across Europe, moved to sub-Saharan Africa to merge four companies as part of a complex joint venture, and lived in China as the sales director of the company's Asia Pacific business (though she doesn't speak Mandarin, Green eventually became president of the whole division).
Green's attraction to risk is fueled by loss. She says she's more comfortable with unpredictability than most and claims her fearlessness stems from her father's death; he was diagnosed with a brain tumor when she was 11 and he passed away when she was 14. "When you're a child and your family's quite dominated by cancer, the worst that could happen has kind of happened," she says, adding that grief counseling taught her to always focus on the positive. "What's the worst that could happen [in my career]? I fail. But is that lymphoma or leukemia? No."
And fail she has. The former history student says that her mistakes have shaped her current strategies. Green documents her entire career (her to-do lists are always electronic, but she pens her thoughts and experiences in Molskine books) and often refers to her extensive collection. She's confident in her vision for Thomas Cook because of those books and the many case studies they contain. Green's obsession with technology – she recently approved a joint venture with travel discovery platform Triporati – springs from a missed opportunity while she was senior vice president of Arrow's Northern Europe business. The changing market slowed her pace: she backed the wrong process control environment and ethernet solution, wasting a considerable amount of time. "Don't be unambitious. Don't miss technology changes in that environment."
Green also struggled while bringing together those four sub-Saharan African companies. She decided to move them to a new singular location, and also launch a new computer system and branded name all on the same day. Employee stress shadowed any sort of focused momentum. "I think sometimes when you're a transforming CEO, you think everyone can work with the same pace and energy and stress," she explains. At Thomas Cook, she understands the limits of the organizations' abilities and has treated them with a gentler hand. "You have to record [your failures] and go back and think about them."
Green thinks of Thomas Cook as her patient: she's worked on the psychology – how are employees, bankers, customers feeling – then moved to the physiology – the company's nerve endings, blood flows, and systems processes. Only after those areas improve can you look at the anatomy – the organizational structure – Green says. And even still, Green worries Thomas Cook could revert to its old way. "There is a staggering statistic about the number of people in remission from cancer who go back to their old way of eating and behaving," she says. "If we get complacent, we'll never get to what I think this company can do."
MORE: Where did the hockey millions go?
After the May night Thomas Cook raised new capital, the employees went to the pub to celebrate; Green returned to her desk and crafted a note of all the additional things the company needed to do. "What is so exciting about the next 20 and 40 and 60 days is no one can relax," she declares. "I don't have a thread of complacency in my soul."
Now focused on delivering all the promises that hooked the bankers who bought into Thomas Cook's refinancing round, Green's prepared to do whatever it takes. "When you're doing a turnaround, you have to believe you can sleep when you're dead."

Phiaton PS 20NC
Phiaton PS 20NC in-ear noise-cancelling headphones have a claimed 95% reduction of ambient noise during travel to afford you excellent private listening no matter how loud the clamor gets. The proprietary Phiaton 'active' (battery-powered) noise-blocking technology is optimized for subways, traffic and airline environments while the ingenious 'half in-ear' PS 20 NC earpiece ergonomics provide excellent wearing comfort, even for sensitive newcomers. However, we found the performance of the noise-blocking function to be highly variable depending on the caliber of fit into the ears. Choose Black or White.
Sorry, all Phiaton products can only ship within USA due to manufacturer restrictions.
Product Features:
- Fully 'active' ambient noise-cancellation in an in-ear design
- Highly ergonomic and comfortable 'half in-ear' fit design
- Compact on-cord remote control
- 50 hour battery life
- Luxurious glossy finish with burnished wire frame accents
What's In The Box:
- 4 sets of eartips for best fit and isolation - XS/S/M/L sizing
- Carrying case
- Airline plug adapter
- 1 AAA battery
- Owner's manual / product guide
- Owner's warranty registration card
The Phiaton PS20 NC in-ear headphones with 'active' battery-powered noise-cancelling are manna for listeners train commuting or flying the noisy skies wanting isolation and great sound during their travels. Also suitable for office and factory workers seeking to shut out the workplace din, the combination of the Phiaton PS20 NC in-ear earpiece and battery-powered 'active' noise-cancellation delivers a potent one-two punch of silence for maximum quietude anywhere you need listening privacy. As with other Phiaton in-ear headphones, the PS20 NC sound is clean-toned with decent musical detail. Bass presence is rather forward and slightly more replete in the NC editions versus some of their non-noise-canceling in-ears, perhaps a by-product of the NC equalization curves employed in this model. The highly ergonomic PS20 NC earpiece fit remains another big plus for newcomers to in-ears and allows comfortable use without ear strain, even for in-ear rookies. However, we found the actual performance of the active noise-blocking function to be highly variable depending principally on the caliber/tightness of earpiece fit into the ears; without a good in-ear seal, the PS 20 NC's noise-cancelling ability becomes audibly compromised.
The Phiaton PS 20 NC come in either Black or White colors and each features brass-like wire rim accents on the earpieces which serves both as a nice flash of style and also helps to grip the earpiece for ease of insertion and removal. The cord design on the Phiaton is amongst the least microphonic in the category so the PS 20NC can be effectively used on the move or at the gym sans annoying cable contact 'microphonics' being transmitted into your ears. Excellent 40 to 50 hour battery life before the PS 20 NC requires 1 single 'AAA' freshie for operation. The 1 year Phiaton manufacturer warranty repairs or replaces at no charge, so hang on to that HeadRoom 'authorized dealer' purchase receipt.

Rivertime EcoLodge is amazing! The lodge is located just outside the city and gives you a taste of the Lao jungles with all modern comforts like hot showers and toilets. The staff is so friendly and welcoming; they treat you more like you are family! You can book many things through the resort like village visits, cooking classes and massages. It is a good point to mention that once you are at the resort, you are unable to travel anywhere independently (must be taken by staff) due to location.

Lovely place to stay if your looking for some relaxation out of vientianne. Wonderful family who runs it. Beautiful floating restaurant and plenty of activities- floating down meekong, kayaking etc. rooms were lovely and clean and loved the wilderness feel however the downside is my partner and I were both attacked by bed bugs overnight :( (up to 10 bites each) only disappointment to a great place otherwise.

I worked at IBM as an intern for less than a year
Pros – Access to a vast range of resources (financial and otherwise) for research, excellent mentoring system for research interns and strong encouragement to be creative. Excellent pay for research interns, excellent benefits (housing) and relocation offered.
Cons – Few work related cons, except that I interend over the winter and no transport was available from housing unlike in the summer. TJ Watson is very isolated and impossible to reach by public transport. Taxis are not expensive though (Typ 15-20$ from TJ Watson to Mt Kisco)
Advice to Senior Management – Keep running the research intern program, and perhaps consider a little closer how to coordinate interns who do not intern during the main summer block

A BIG CONGRATS on 1,100 consecutive days! Really awesome! Wow, another 100 days have passed again, already! : ) For some it seems pretty easy to come back each day!

Or they just run out of gas! :( Hang onto your speed lines, it only takes one day to lose them! I'm sure you know! But even clicking on news articles links, which are the easiest points here on GasBuddy, when you can't or didn't post gas prices before midnight will save your consecutive days! : ) WARNING! Every day GBs lose their consecutive days for many reasons, many with big numbers, the #1 reason, "oops, I just forgot!" :( If you ever lose your consecutive days; that is NO FAULT of your own, please contact the mods!

February 1, 2013
UPDATE: The 37-year-old male driver has been charged with a DUI Friday night, after going off the side of Monacan Trail, just south of Charlottesville.
Albemarle County Police say blood has been drawn and sent to the labs.
All of this after the mini-van crashed in the 3900 block of Monacan Trail on Route 29 south.
A wrecked mini-van with kids' clothes and toys police found at the scene along with open containers of alcohol.
"The crash right now as we're investigating speed is not involved but alcohol is involved," said Sergeant Sean Hackney of Albemarle County Police.
"We have a 41-year-old female who has been transported in critical condition and a 37-year-old male who has transported in critical condition to UVa Medical Center."
The woman was sitting in the passenger's seat with no seatbelt on and was ejected from the vehicle. Police say initially there was information that a child was ejected as well.
"We were able to locate the car seat. And we are now confirming through family members that the child was actually dropped off prior to the crash so thankfully the child wasn't involved in the crash," said Hackney.
Police say it's important to contact them if you think someone on the road might be intoxicated.
"This vehicle was given out as a look out earlier as possibly being intoxicated so we're going to be following up on all of that. So, if you see something, say something."
Monacan Trail is a primary road for the rural area where police have seen several DUI crashes.
We do see a lot of fatalities and DUI crashes in years past we've had as many as four right here within this one mile area where we're at," Hackney said.
February 1, 2013
A car accident on 29 South near North Garden sends two people to the hospital.
Police say a 41 year-old woman and a 37 year-old man are in critical condition and have been transported to UVa Medical Center.
Police say alcohol was involved and they found open containers of alcohol at the scene.
The investigation is ongoing.

Just about every sexist cliché will tell you that women are hard to please, both in and out of the bedroom. It's not that women are hard to please; it's that women know what they want.
Unfortunately, not every woman feels entirely comfortable expressing her sexual desires. Some women fear judgment, others are more guarded, and still others are asking in less obvious ways that often go unnoticed.
In researching the qualities women desire in a lover, we found that women are hardly asking for the impossible. Take a look at the 7 things women want in bed – after the jump!

Almost all commercial barbecue sauces are loaded with sugar. Most I've seen have 16-30 grams per quarter cup, but I've seen them as high as 44 grams! It doesn't have to be that way. This one has a secret ingredient - diet cola. It's best to use one sweetened with Splenda, but any will do (aspartame tends to lose its sweetness when heated for long periods).

Former Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Jason Babin sent a message to Philadelphia's sports writers Thursday: You don't tie your shoes and you have "stinky breath."
The new member of the Jacksonville Jaguars spoke out, saying, "..besides loaded questions, Philly writers didn't tie shoes, wore shorts and had stinky breath."
Babin also said in regards to Philadelphia, "things are kind of stagnant. They could ultimately get worse before they get better."
The two-time Pro Bowl defensive end was claimed off waivers by the Jaguars, 2-9, Wednesday.
According to the Associated Press, the Jaguars will pay the remaining $1.69 million of Babin's 2012 salary.

The U.S. and the Disaster in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Central Asia
Ahmed Rashid - Author
- eBook - ePub eBook: $14.99
Lionel Gelber Award
Arthur Ross Book Award Shortlist
Asia Society Award Nominee
After September 11th , Ahmed Rashid's crucial book Taliban introduced American readers to that now notorious regime. In this new work, he returns to Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Central Asia to review the catastrophic aftermath of America's failed war on terror. Called "Pakistan's best and bravest reporter" by Christopher Hitchens, Rashid has shown himself to be a voice of reason amid the chaos of present-day Central Asia. Descent Into Chaos is his blistering critique of American policy-a dire warning and an impassioned call to correct these disasterous strategies before these failing states threaten global stability and bring devastation to our world.

AFTER 10 YEARS of attending Pharmaceutical Alliance for CME meetings at the Alliance for CME annual conference, Maureen Doyle-Scharff, director, professional services and medical education, Ross Products Division, Abbott Laboratories, Columbus, Ohio, was fed up. "I'm a very opinionated person, and I was moaning and groaning about how all of us get together and complain about the same things year after year and don't do anything about it," she recalls. "And some people said, 'If you think you could do something about it, why don't you just take over this group?'"
She agreed, warning that she is an action-oriented person and would make things happen. And that she has. PACME's achievements so far include developing a roadshow of Alliance for CME leaders, who visit pharma companies and educate personnel about the importance of CME provider/industry collaboration. Future goals include developing a curriculum to certify industry personnel in CME "rules of engagement" and creating a database of CME providers, highlighting their competencies, interests, and strengths.
Such strategies are especially critical now, because pharma companies, under increasing government regulation and public scrutiny, are reevaluating their role in funding CME. A passionate advocate of industry's involvement in CME, Doyle-Scharff says the CME community needs to make major changes to ensure the future of industry/provider collaboration.
In addition to leading PACME, she was elected this year to the board of the Alliance for CME — the first industry representative to win election in six years. She also serves on the board of the Global Alliance for Medical Education.
Doyle-Scharff's dedication to CME began 15 years ago when she joined a medical education company as a graphic artist and eventually was promoted to account executive. One of her clients was The Upjohn Co., which she joined in 1996 as a healthcare education services manager. Then, at Pharmacia, she served as director, professional affairs; when Pfizer acquired the company, she moved to Johnson & Johnson as executive director, alliances and advocacy. This April, she started her new position at Ross Products Division, Abbott Laboratories, where she will redefine and lead the professional services team.
Asked what attributes have enabled her to become a successful leader in the CME community, she answers, "I believe I'm an effective team builder, meaning I can bring a lot of disparate — sometimes desperate — groups together to sit down and identify common issues, common ground, and common goals and move forward from there."
We sat down with her at the Alliance for CME annual conference in January, and followed up later over the phone to get her perspective on the future of CME provider/industry collaboration.
On the competencies CME professionals working in industry need to have in today's environment
DOYLE-SCHARFF: We're so myopically focused on the logistical issues of the [CME provider/industry] relationship that we're losing sight of the fact that we're still spending hundreds of millions dollars on education that isn't effective. In order for us to make the right decisions on where dollars should be invested, we need to be better prepared to appreciate and understand the connection between a true needs assessment and measurable outcomes. Ultimately it is the provider who needs to make the decision as to how those outcomes are measured. But I believe that [CME professionals in] industry need to elevate their competency level in the area of adult-learning principles in order to make sure that we are investing dollars in education that is meeting the needs of the physicians in our country and is ultimately having an impact on patient care in a positive way.
There are individuals who don't think [outcomes measurement] is important — or worse — feel that in the current regulatory environment it would give people the wrong impression. We're kind of in a "damned if we do, damned if we don't" situation right now. [How-ever], if we support medical education because we want to educate physicians, because we want to move them down a continuum to be better physicians and improve patient care, then we're on the right track.
On establishing guidelines for speaker honoraria
I don't believe industry should be making that call. Industry has the right to be prudent and review grants to protect its interests. Having said that, the exorbitant honoraria that are out there today have a lot less to do with providers and a lot more to do with industry practices of old. We need to accept a certain amount of that responsibility. [But] when we're talking about independent CME, it is the responsibility of the provider to determine fair market value.
On establishing standards for CME provider/industry collaboration
In a perfect world we would have some standards, including a common letter of agreement that the Food and Drug Administration and Office of Inspector General [would approve of]. If we can establish a set of standards and tools, we can start to chip away at some of the massive confusion and frustration that exists between [providers and industry].
To protect our interests, we're investing a lot of resources and money into internal processes, grant review committees, and online grant processing software — money that could be spent on quality education. I really believe in my gut that if we can see through the quagmire of complicated issues that we're facing and make sure that our guiding light is improving patient care and safety — and start working backward from there — then a lot of the challenges and anxiety and the fear around being involved with medical education will disappear. We will have the data to show the public and the government that our focus is on patients and that what we do is making a difference.
On who should pay for CME
An issue that should be at the top of everybody's list is balanced funding for continuing medical education. I do believe that the pharmaceutical and device industries have an appropriate role to play in this mix — but I do think that it's dangerous that 60 percent of the programs are funded by industry. Not because I think that industry dollars are a bad thing, but in today's world it's dangerous because of the perception. CME providers need to look at their business model and understand where else they might find dollars to fund their activities.
I would never discount the role the docs themselves should play in paying for part of this. I've heard this from attorneys, I've heard this from even the allied healthcare professionals — doctors are the only professionals in this country who don't have to pay for their continuing education, because it's subsidized by industry.
The best-case scenario is a balance, where docs pay for part of their CME and where the government picks up part of the tab. There are grants at the state level, and I think providers have never [asked for government funding] because the dollars have always been there from industry. A very good friend of mine said at the Alliance meeting that it's actually easier for her office to get money out of the government than it is to get money out of industry right now. I mean, that pretty much says it all.
On pharma-bashing
I have a problem with the people on the provider side who view us as a necessary evil. That just perpetuates the anxiety and the myth that we're only in this because we want to sell more products. That is as far from the truth as one could possibly get. [CME providers] know that we're not the evil empire, especially the individuals who are at the Alliance for CME meeting, who make the commitment to be a part of the solution.
It's frustrating for me when providers or the CME community at large won't step up and be a voice for us. We get bad press every day of the week, from "The Simpsons" to "ER." I often wonder: Where is the CME community? Where is academic medicine? Where are the specialty societies who know that this is a partnership, who know that without us they would have to pursue a different business model? [Up until now] all providers have had to worry about is their part of the world within their academic center or medical society. Unfortunately, the stakes are so much higher now. There's so much more work to be done and bigger problems to deal with.
On CME's role in the wider healthcare system
What are we going to do about the 100,000 medical errors that occur in this country every year? Whose job is it to help change that? The physician has a huge responsibility but the CME provider has a pretty big chunk of that responsibility as well. CME is not just about educating docs on the latest and greatest therapeutic advances — we need to be part of a movement that helps physicians become better physicians or at least competent by standards that are acceptable to all stakeholders, including the general public.
I do believe that CME can and will play a critical role in helping us solve many of the big problems of healthcare today, the cost issues, the waste, improving population outcomes. A lot of these issues are systemic, but education goes hand in hand with changing the system. I absolutely believe CME needs to be a critical component of [solving these problems], but we're never going to get there if we can't sort through the fundamental logistics of how industry provides dollars to CME. I hope that in five years or however long it takes, CME can finally take its rightful place in the whole healthcare marketplace.
Mom and Mr. Mom
During one of the many sessions she facilitated at the Alliance for CME annual conference this past January, Maureen Doyle-Scharff kicked off her presentation by showing a slide of her two sons, aged six and two, in their Halloween costumes. "These are my two boys — the two loves of my life, aside from my husband," she said, adding that she had never put a picture of her kids in a presentation before. She did it to remind herself that she hadn't seen them for five days. "We are all making sacrifices, traveling a lot, because we believe in what we are doing," she told participants.
Doyle-Scharff, director, professional services and medical education, Ross Products Division, Abbott Laboratories, Columbus, Ohio, not only has a demanding job, but her passion for CME impels her to take on additional responsibilities, such as speaking at conferences and becoming leader of the Pharmaceutical Alliance for CME — all of which involve a great deal of travel. So how does she balance career and family?
"First and foremost, my family really is my No. 1 priority and if I felt that my involvement in [the CME] arena or my job itself was interfering with that No. 1 priority, then I would make a change in my life," she says. She also says she would not be able to pursue her career without the support of her husband. "I am married to a phenomenal individual who doesn't travel." A high school science teacher, her husband is "a part-time Mr. Mom," she says. And, she asserts that's a positive situation for her children. "My kids get to spend more time with their dad than most kids get to spend with their fathers, because our society is still backward in that vein. Everyone in my neighborhood is a stay-at-home mom. I'm a better mom and a better wife because I have a career I love and I'm passionate about things [beyond just] family."

Dallas >Bars & Pubs > Pm: A Nightlife Lounge
1530 Main St, Dallas, TX | Directions 7520132.780685 -96.798430
Tue-Sat 8pm-2am
Neighborhoods: Historic District
HORRIBLE ATTITIUDES!!! – I have been to this bar a few times. When I stay at the Joule, service is adequate. I always make sure to pay for bottle service and reserve a good spot. The inside is an elegant lounge full of some of the Dallas 'it' crowd, so why a one star rating? Anyone who has ever been to PM Lounge knows about the beast at the door. A woman who comes outside to determine who she wants to let in and who is not worthy. I understand the concept of select enrty but the attitude that is given at the door is completely unacceptable! This woman has a horrible attitude and will say anything she wants w/out a filter. This is no way to provide top of the line service to your clientel. I stood by one day and watched as she interacted w/ a client who called ahead and reserved bottle service w/ her. The gentleman told her that she had text him earlier and confirmed his table as well as put his credit card on file to charge everything to. She simply said 'thats not true'. When the customer pulled out his phone and showed her the messages, she fabricated a story about him starting a fight last time he was there and thats why she was not letting him in. I though, ok, maybe this guy did have a reputation and thats why she is treating him with such disrespect. Just a few minutes later I watched another customer have an almost identical conversation with her about confirming a reservation and now suddenly getting rejected. To my shock I watched as she told this guy that he had started a fight last time he was there and thats why he could not get in. Again, to a completely different person! It was her attempt to embarrass the person in front of a crowd of his peers so that he would leave. My final straw was a point when I approached the doorway to go in with a group of friends after having been to this bar many times w/out a problem and was suddenly told that I did not have a reservation, even though she had confirmed it earlier via text. I was angry. No bar is worth this kind of treatment. No person with an ounce of dignity or respect for themselves should subject themselves to this kind of disrespect simply to gain access to a bar. There are plenty of other options in Dallas with superior customer service. This is lounge would be a fantastic venue but lack of simple respect for customers makes this place a BIG FAIL!
THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER – It was a beautiful night for my friends birthday party and bachelorette party all in one. My friends and I were all decked out and riding in a stretched hummer limo. Our plans for the night included a lingerie party at the house then off to The Ritz for drinks and pictures, PM lounge to party and finally a nice evening at The Joule Hotel. Needless to say the night did not end up as planned.
We arrived at PM lounge a little after midnight only to be greeted very rudely by the doorman. We told them that we had a table reserved for our friend. They told us they did not have that person's name even though we told the manager that the party was for her and the credit card reserving the table was under her name. Her best friend was the one that had reserved the table and when we mentioned her name the door man said very rudely that he needed to speak with her. At that time she came walking up and one of the managers came to the door. She told us that since we did not arrive by 11:30 she had to give our table away. We were never told to be there by 11:30 and if we had known, we would have been there at that time. She told us that she sent an email and tried to call us. There was no email or call. We asked her to show us where she sent this and the only email that she had sent was to a Jennifer that none of us knew. At this time there was no apology and we were offered another table. Instead of making a big deal out of it me and about 10 girls followed her to the back area where the tables were. As we are all standing there she then tells us that this table has been given away as well. Again, no apology no nothing. We were all very upset. They sent out a very rude waitress that put her had in my face and told me to loose my attitude and that I would be kicked out if I didn't. I told her that I wasn't planning on staying anyway. Then she offered to buy us all a round of drinks.(INSULTING) Since were supposed to have a $700 minimum table that they threatened to charge us whether we showed up or not. We asked to speak to a General Manager and she basicly told us that she did not care about our situation. I have been in the customer service industry for over ten years. I have never been treated this way in my life. Not only did they give our table away, but they were very rude about it as if we were the ones that had done something wrong. It is very sad to me that these people are able to get away with treating people this way. I wonder if this kind of behavior is condoned by the owners and upper management. I have never been to this place before, it may be a very fun place but I will never return again and will never recommend it. I would hate for anyone to have to go through what we did. Not only did they ruin our friends birthday but also her bacholorette party. These are moments that you remember for the rest of your life.
Loved the atmosphere – We were staying at the joule hotel for my birthday. The club gave us a VIP table for 1/2 price and a free bottle of liquor on the house. We all had a blast. Didn't have to wait in any lines, just walked right in. I am going back very soon. :)
Nice place...once you get in – My wife and I stayed at the Joule this past weekend and just wanted a place to grab a drink on a Friday night so the front desk suggested we try PM Lounge which was just down stairs. We got to the door around 11:30 and the guy there asked us if we had reservations. We said no and that we were staying at the Joule and were just looking for a place to grab a few drinks. He stated that they normally go off reservations but since we were staying at the Joule he would allow us in as long as I took off my hat. You know, I can understand not allowing baseball caps in a high-end club but my hat went with my jacket and was part of my whole style. I also saw them turn away a couple of guys that looked just fine but one of them was wearing flip-flops. Anyway, once we got in the place was jumpin' and the music was good but a little too loud, this could be becuase of the very small size of the club. Upon entering we were informed that the seats and tables on the perimeter of the club (90% of all seating area) was reserved for bottle service but the rest of the club was open. On the night we were there there were only three groups at any of these tables. (leaving 75% of the seating area unused) Getting drinks was not too hard due to the fact that they had a bar at each end of the relatively small club. All in all, the club was nice and had good music but I felt that the door staff was trying to get us to buy bottle service when we didn't have to obviously because they can't sell it.
Mediocre – the place has a really cool look to it. Everything inside is gorgeous. Unfortunately the times i have been the drink prices are way to high, and there is little to no people inside. They need to figure out how to get people in there ASAP!
Great experience for non-minority Dallas – I recently had the pleasure of visiting the PM Lounge. The decor of the Lounge is awesome. The music was decent, but the mixture of the two provided a great vibe; HOWEVER...to some the experience getting in will be...different. I see it says here the attire is "jacket and tie"; however, on the more "clubby" nights, the attire requirement is only what the chick at the door feels is trendy/stylish enough. If that is the type of vibe they want, they hired the perfect "person".
She wasn't the most pleasant person as she critiqued outfits, especially for minorities, but on the inside non-minorities had on whatever they felt like wearing. She did fall on her butt later that night, so maybe her critiques came back to bite her :)
Nice venue for the Dallas elite non-minority crowd...you'll have a great time! (being sarcastic, but there are some non-minorities actually don't want a mixed crowd...)

Pete Rose, Rob Schneider mock Google for Microsoft Office
Microsoft enlisted former "Saturday Night Live" cast member Rob Schneider and disgraced baseball star Pete Rose to denigrate Google Docs in two new videos that posted to the Web Friday.
The videos posted on Microsoft's Office 365 blog suggest that users gamble every time they trust their productivity to Google Docs.
Of course, it's a time-tested strategy for Microsoft, which rolled out its Gmail Man videos two years ago, broadsiding Google's email service for its contextual advertising program.
In one of the new videos, two buddies hit a casino. One asks if they should play … Read more
