We were brought together by greed for fame.
They told us to move our mouths silently.
From there, our lives were never quite the same.
Thrust into the spotlight so violently.
First, we sat on the Billboard – prominent.
Limos, hotels, our lewd agent, Sammy.
Then, atop the industry – dominant.
Women, MTV, dollar bills, Grammy.
The higher we were lifted from the norm,
Up farther and farther from the mundane,
The more we felt the fury of the storm –
Now, a life barely able to sustain.
We were loved and adored by all who heard,
Yet neither of us sung a single word.

Years ago youngsters had a wonderful place to go in the summer. It was called Y-Land. Now days it has been replace by Lots of Fun at the east campus of SouthArk Community College .
East campus?
I went to Y-Wonderland as a youth and have many very fond memories. The first year it was at Hugh Goodwin School and later at the "old YWCA" building (now the Boy Scouts of America Building on Peach Street). We started swimming at the Boys Club pool (now ball fields) and then later the old YWCA pool (behind the BSA building on Peach) opened up for a short time when the Boys Club Pool ceased operation. Sadly both are long gone…

ZNF674: A New Krüppel-Associated Box–Containing Zinc-Finger Gene Involved in Nonsyndromic X-Linked Mental Retardation The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 78, Issue 2, 1 February 2006, Pages 265-278 Dorien Lugtenberg, Helger G. Yntema, Martijn J.G. Banning, Astrid R. Oudakker, Helen V. Firth, Lionel Willatt, Martine Raynaud, Tjitske Kleefstra, Jean-Pierre Fryns, Hans-Hilger Ropers, Jamel Chelly, Claude Moraine, Jozef Gécz, Jeroen van Reeuwijk, Sander B. Nabuurs, Bert B.A. de Vries, Ben C.J. Hamel, Arjan P.M. de Brouwer and Hans van Bokhoven Abstract Array-based comparative genomic hybridization has proven to be successful in the identification of genetic defects in disorders involving mental retardation. Here, we studied a patient with learning disabilities, retinal dystrophy, and short stature. The family history was suggestive of an X-linked contiguous gene syndrome. Hybridization of full-coverage X-chromosomal bacterial artificial chromosome arrays revealed a deletion of ∼1 Mb in Xp11.3, which harbors RP2, SLC9A7, CHST7, and two hypothetical zinc-finger genes, ZNF673 and ZNF674. These genes were analyzed in 28 families with nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) that show linkage to Xp11.3; the analysis revealed a nonsense mutation, p.E118X, in the coding sequence of ZNF674 in one family. This mutation is predicted to result in a truncated protein containing the Krüppel-associated box domains but lacking the zinc-finger domains, which are crucial for DNA binding. We characterized the complete ZNF674 gene structure and subsequently tested an additional 306 patients with XLMR for mutations by direct sequencing. Two amino acid substitutions, p.T343M and p.P412L, were identified that were not found in unaffected individuals. The proline at position 412 is conserved between species and is predicted by molecular modeling to reduce the DNA-binding properties of ZNF674. The p.T343M transition is probably a polymorphism, because the homologous ZNF674 gene in chimpanzee has a methionine at that position. ZNF674 belongs to a cluster of seven highly related zinc-finger genes in Xp11, two of which (ZNF41 and ZNF81) were implicated previously in XLMR. Identification of ZNF674 as the third XLMR gene in this cluster may indicate a common role for these zinc-finger genes that is crucial to human cognitive functioning.

Nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation: where are the missing mutations? Trends in Genetics, Volume 19, Issue 6, 1 June 2003, Pages 316-320 Hans-Hilger Ropers, Maria Hoeltzenbein, Vera Kalscheuer, Helger Yntema, Ben Hamel, Jean-Pierre Fryns, Jamel Chelly, Michael Partington, Jozef Gecz and Claude Moraine Abstract Analysis of linkage intervals from 125 unrelated families with nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation (NS-XLMR) has revealed that the respective gene defects are conspicuously clustered in defined regions of the human X-chromosome, with approximately 30% of all mutations being located on the proximal Xp. In 83% of these families, underlying gene defects are not yet known. Our observations should speed up the search for mutations that are still missing and pave the way for the molecular diagnosis of this common disorder. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (126 kb) |
The genetic landscape of intellectual disability arising from chromosome X Trends in Genetics, Volume 25, Issue 7, 1 July 2009, Pages 308-316 Jozef Gécz, Cheryl Shoubridge and Mark Corbett Abstract X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) or intellectual disability (ID) is a common, clinically complex and genetically heterogeneous disease arising from many mutations along the X chromosome. It affects between 1/600–1/1000 males and a substantial number of females. Research during the past decade has identified >90 different XLMR genes, affecting a wide range of cellular processes. Many more genes remain uncharacterized, especially for the non-syndromic XLMR forms. Currently, ∼11% of X-chromosome genes are implicated in XLMR; however, apart from a few notable exceptions, most contribute individually to <0.1% of the total landscape, which arguably remains only about half complete. There remain many hills to climb and valleys to cross before the ID landscape is fully triangulated. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (733 kb) |

Mutations in genes on the X chromosome are believed to be responsible for the excess of males among individuals with mental retardation. Such genes are numerous, certainly >100, and cause both syndromal and nonsyndromal types of mental retardation. Clinical and molecular studies have been conducted on the Mennonite family with X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) reported, in 1962, by Renpenning et al. The clinical phenotype includes severe mental retardation, microcephaly, up-slanting palpebral fissures, small testes, and stature shorter than that of nonaffected males. Major malformations, neuromuscular abnormalities, and behavioral disturbances were not seen. Longevity is not impaired. Carrier females do not show heterozygote manifestations. The syndrome maps to Xp11.2-p11.4, with a maximum LOD score of 3.21 (recombination fraction 0) for markers between DXS1039 and DXS1068. Renpenning syndrome (also known as "MRXS8"; gene RENS1, MIM 309500) shares phenotypic manifestations with several other XLMR syndromes, notably the Sutherland-Haan syndrome. In none of these entities has the responsible gene been isolated; hence, the possibility that two or more of them may be allelic cannot be excluded at present.

Goodman in 1959
Born | New York City, New York, U.S. |
September 9, 1911
Died | August 2, 1972 North Stratford, New Hampshire, U.S. |
(aged 60)
Occupation | Writer |
Paul Goodman (/ˈɡʊdmən/; September 9, 1911 – August 2, 1972) was an American novelist, playwright, poet and psychotherapist, although now best known as a social critic, anarchist philosopher, and public intellectual. Though often thought of as a sociologist, he vehemently denied being one in a presentation in the Experimental College at San Francisco State in 1964, and in fact said he could not read sociology because it was too often lifeless. The author of dozens of books including Growing Up Absurd and The Community of Scholars, Goodman was an activist on the pacifist Left in the 1960s and a frequently cited inspiration to the student movement of that decade. A lay therapist for a number of years, he was a co-founder of Gestalt Therapy in the 1940s and '50s.
Early life[edit]
Goodman was born in New York City to Barnett and Augusta Goodman, both immigrants. He had a Hebrew school education, and graduated first in his class at Townsend Harris High School.[1][2] His brother Percival Goodman, with whom Paul frequently worked, was an architect especially noted for his many synagogue designs.[3]
As a child, Goodman freely roamed the streets and public libraries of his native New York City, experiences which later inspired his radical concept of "the educative city". He graduated from The City College of New York in 1932 and completed his Ph.D. work at the University of Chicago in 193[9?]. (He was not officially awarded his Ph.D. until 1953, for a dissertation which was later published by the University of Chicago Press as The Structure of Literature.)
In 1940, Goodman was removed from his University of Chicago faculty position for issues pertaining to his open bisexuality and affairs with students.[4]
Goodman was a prolific writer of essays, fiction, plays, and poetry. Although he began writing short stories by 1932, his first novel, The Grand Piano, was not published until 1942. It was later subsumed as Book One of his longest novel, The Empire City, which he continued to publish in sections until it was finally issued in one volume by Bobbs-Merrill in 1959.
In the mid-1940s, together with C. Wright Mills and others, he contributed to Politics, the journal edited during the 1940s by Dwight Macdonald.[5] In 1947, he published two books, Kafka's Prayer, a study of Franz Kafka, and Communitas, a classic study of urban design co-authored with his brother Percival Goodman. Though he continued to write and publish regularly throughout the next two decades, a wider audience, and a degree of public recognition, came only with the 1960 publication of his Growing Up Absurd: Problems of Youth in the Organized Society.
Goodman knew and worked with many of the so-called New York intellectuals, including Daniel Bell, Norman Mailer, Irving Howe, Alfred Kazin, Norman Podhoretz, Mary McCarthy, Lionel Trilling, and Philip Rahv. In addition to Politics, his writings appeared in Partisan Review, The New Republic, Commentary, The New Leader, Dissent and The New York Review of Books.[6]
Goodman was strongly influenced by Otto Rank's "here-and-now" approach to psychotherapy, fundamental to Gestalt therapy, as well as Rank's post-Freudian book Art and Artist (1932). In the late 1940s, Fritz Perls asked Goodman to write up the notes which were to become the seminal work for the new therapy, Part II of Perls, Goodman, and Hefferline (1951) Gestalt Therapy: Excitement and Growth in the Human Personality. A year later, Goodman would become one of the Group of Seven - Fritz and Laura Perls, Isadore From, Goodman, Elliot Shapiro, Paul Weiss, Richard Kitzler - who were the founding members of the New York Institute for Gestalt Therapy.
Goodman wrote on a wide variety of subjects; including education, Gestalt Therapy, city life and urban design, children's rights, politics, literary criticism, and many more. In an interview with Studs Terkel, Goodman said "I might seem to have a number of divergent interests — community planning, psychotherapy, education, politics — but they are all one concern: how to make it possible to grow up as a human being into a culture without losing nature. I simply refuse to acknowledge that a sensible and honorable community does not exist."
He was equally at home with the avant-garde and with classical texts, and his fiction often mixes formal and experimental styles. The style and subject matter of Goodman's short stories influenced those of Guy Davenport[citation needed].
In 1967, Goodman's son Matthew died in a mountain climbing accident. Paul's friends claimed that he never recovered from the resulting grief, and his health began to deteriorate. He died of a heart attack at his farm in New Hampshire just before his 61st birthday. He was survived by his second wife, Sally, as well as two daughters.[7]
While Goodman himself described his politics as anarchist, his love as bisexual, and his profession as that of "man of letters", Hayden Carruth wrote "Any page of Paul Goodman will give you not only originality and brilliance but wisdom — that is, something to think about. He is our peculiar, urban, twentieth-century Thoreau, the quintessential American mind of our time."
On education[edit]
Paul Goodman was an important anarchist critic of contemporary educational systems as can be seen in his books Growing Up Absurd and Compulsory Mis-education. Goodman believed that in contemporary societies "It is in the schools and from the mass media, rather than at home or from their friends, that the mass of our citizens in all classes learn that life is inevitably routine, depersonalized, venally graded; that it is best to toe the mark and shut up; that there is no place for spontaneity, open sexuality and free spirit. Trained in the schools they go on to the same quality of jobs, culture and politics. This is education, miseducation socializing to the national norms and regimenting to the nation's 'needs'".[8]
Goodman thought that a person's most valuable educational experiences occur outside the school. Participation in the activities of society should be the chief means of learning. Instead of requiring students to succumb to the theoretical drudgery of textbook learning, Goodman recommends that education be transferred into factories, museums, parks, department stores, etc., where the students can actively participate in their education... The ideal schools would take the form of small discussion groups of no more than twenty individuals. As has been indicated, these groups would utilize any effective environment that would be relevant to the interest of the group. Such education would be necessarily non-compulsory, for any compulsion to attend places authority in an external body disassociated from the needs and aspirations of the students. Moreover, compulsion retards and impedes the students' ability to learn."[8]
Radical politics[edit]
After having been a strong advocate of the student movement during most of the 1960s, Goodman eventually became a staunch critic of the ideological harshness the New Left embraced toward the end of the decade. In New Reformation (1970), his tenth book of social criticism, he argued that the "alienation" and existential rage of 1960s youth had usurped all their worthwhile political goals (e.g., the Port Huron Statement), and that therefore their tactics had become destructive.[9] The book further situated the drama of the tumultuous 1960s in the larger context of what Goodman called "the disease of modern times".[9] In drawing this parallel between young people's socio-historical consciousness and their political activism, Goodman made an early contribution to the argument that the philosophical underpinnings of the New Left were largely informed by postwar disenchantment with Enlightenment conceptions of science, technology, truth, knowledge, and power relations.
For instance, after a hostile exchange with student radicals who had heckled him "heatedly and rudely" at a campus appearance in 1967, Goodman wrote, "suddenly I realized that they did not believe there was a nature of things. [To them] there was no knowledge but only the sociology of knowledge. They had learned so well that physical and sociological research is subsidized and conducted for the benefit of the ruling class that they were doubtful that there was such a thing as simple truth, for instance that the table was made of wood—maybe it was plastic imitation...I had imagined that the worldwide student protest had to do with changing political and moral institutions, and I was sympathetic to this. But I now saw that we had to do with a religious crisis. Not only all institutions but all learning had been corrupted by the Whore of Babylon, and there was no longer any salvation to be got from Works."[9]
After a life of revolutionary revelry and social criticism, Goodman's likening of the youth revolt in the 1960s to the Protestant Reformation of 1517 made up the crux of his belief about American modernity in the late 1960s: "It is evident that, at present, we are not going to give up the mass faith in scientific technology that is the religion of modern times; and yet we cannot continue with it, as it has been perverted. So I look for a 'New Reformation.'"[9]
Goodman participated at the 1967 Congress on the Dialectics of Liberation, held in London and coordinated by South African psychiatrist David Cooper. The Congress aimed at "creating a genuine revolutionary consciousness by fusing ideology and action on the levels of the individual and of mass society".[10] Goodman's views on politics, social psychology, and society could be usefully compared and contrasted with those of fellow attendees Herbert Marcuse and R. D. Laing, and with those of Norman O. Brown.
In 1968, Goodman signed the "Writers and Editors War Tax Protest" pledge, vowing to refuse tax payments in protest against the Vietnam War.[11]
The freedom with which he revealed, in print and in public, his romantic and sexual relations with men (notably in a late essay, "Being Queer"[12]), proved to be one of the many important cultural springboards for the emerging gay liberation movement of the early 1970s. He viewed sexual relationships between males as natural, normal, and healthy. In discussing his own sexual relationships, he acknowledged that public opinion would condemn him, but countered that "what is really obscene is the way our society makes us feel shameful and like criminals for doing human things that we really need."
- "It is by losing ourselves in inquiry, creation & craft that we become something. Civilization is a continual gift of spirit: inventions, discoveries, insight, art. We are citizens, as Socrates would have said, & we have it available as our own. "

I couldn't tell you the last time I took part in the March Madness fun, filling out a bracket and taking part in various tournament pools. It wasn't that long ago that I hosted an annual tournament challenge among my Facebook friends, and while I never won my own pool, I took more pride in beating my brother and his best friend in Alaska.
This time of the year in college basketball is one of my favorite times as a sports fan. There really is nothing like watching the NCAA Tournament, even if it means I have to sacrifice watching The Young and the Restless for the first couple weeks of the tourney.
All this to say that March Madness has taken a different form for me over the last few years. When I would typically be engulfed in the tournament, I have since turned that focus over to spring sports at the high schools.
I usually write my column on Wednesday's during some down time, and at this moment, we're still planning to have the fast pitch county tournament this weekend. I enjoy any county tournament, but looking at the weather for this weekend, we may miss out on that this year.
Despite that, we're still entering an exciting time with division games. I'm looking forward to the fun, in-county showdowns in Region 2-1A, as well as the big games for East Union and New Albany.
As for my bracket, it looks like I'll miss out on making one again this year, but that's OK. I probably would have done something crazy, like pick Ole Miss to win it all. Happy March Madness!

Back in March, 2011, I reviewed a PhRMA sponsored survey of physicians the results of which PhRMA claimed shows that "nearly eight out of 10 physicians view pharmaceutical research companies and their sales representatives as useful sources of information on prescription medicines" (see "New PhRMA Survey of Physicians: Are Sales Reps as "Useful" as PhRMA Wants Us to Believe?"). If you look at a chart of the relevant data (see below), however, you see that the 80% mentioned by PhRMA includes 53% of physicians who find sales reps only "somewhat useful." Only 26% of physicians surveyed found reps "very useful."
Yesterday, I came across the Wolters Kluwer Health Point-of-Care survey of physicians, part of which looked at where physicians receive information to make decisions about diagnoses, treatment and ongoing patient care (see press release and executive summary here). This study asked physicians: "How often do you use the following sources to gain information used to diagnose, treat and care for patients?" The results are shown in the following chart:
The trends are comparable (eg, prof'l journals are rank near the top and sales reps rank near the bottom in both surveys), but you can't group the Wolters Kluwer categories "frequently" and "occasionally" together as well as you can group together PhRMA's "very useful" and "somewhat useful" categories. Because of the way PhRMA designed it's study -- using categories that can easily be combined -- they were able to spin the results favorably, whereas no such spin of the data is possible in the Wolters Kluwer survey.
So, looking at ALL the data, IMHO, the best that can be said in answer to my question is that most physicians find pharma sales reps among the least important sources of information they use to help them diagnose, treat and care for their patients.
P.S. (27-MAR-2012) I just came across another study attempting to answer the question "Do physicians find sales reps useful?" The study comes from Cegedim Strategic Data (CSD), a provider of integrated healthcare market research. CSD analyzed physician-reported diary entries of recent sales calls. Results from over 30 countries showed that overall 93.8% of physicians worldwide, both GPs and specialists, "find sales representative calls useful and of value to their practice, based on over 5.6 million product detailing mentions" (find more details here).
I believe CSD's methodology asks physicians to evaluate recent sales calls. This technique eliminates physicians who did not receive any sales calls, which skews the data to favor physicians who like sales reps to begin with. The CSD study does not compare usefulness of reps compared to other sources of information.
In any case, it's amazing how many studies are out there and how difficult it is to get a straight answer to a simple question.

I believe your interpretation is correct. While disappointing this should be no surprise to anybody in Pharma, especially sales representatives. When it comes to being a source of information, there is nothing the sales rep can bring to the physician that the physician can't easily get on their smartphone. www.PharmaReform.com

The mysterious British artist Banksy strikes again, this time in Brooklyn, and the owner of the building is taking steps to protect the work.
As part of his month-long city installation named "Better Out Than In," Banksy tagged the side of a Red Hook building with a red balloon.
The building owner put Plexiglas over the piece after it was defaced earlier in the day.
The graffiti is attracting viewers from across the five boroughs.
"I've been one of the biggest fans, I've been following for six years and even got a tattoo," said one person. "And yeah, really exciting, especially in the neighborhood."
"It's been like this all day pretty much, just people stopping by," said another. "I spoke to some young men who came from the Bronx just to see the piece of work. So it's pretty cool."
To view all of Banksy's artwork over this month, visit banksy.co.uk.

To celebrate his illustrious automotive career, Steve Saleen and his new company, SMS, have developed a truly innovative and exceptional celebratory vehicle--the '08 SMS 25th Anniversary Mustang concept. To find out more about the 720hp SMS concept car, we talked to its creator, Mr. Steve Saleen.
Comments by Steve Saleen, Chairman and CEO of SMS:"In celebration of my 25 years in the niche manufacturing business, I wanted to create a personal car for myself that appropriately marks this very special anniversary. The functional aesthetic innovations that we have developed are truly exceptional in every way. Though this car is not going to be for sale, it nevertheless demonstrates the technological advances present at SMS.
"With the SSC, SA-10, SA-15 and SA-20, I used those platforms to introduce new technology to the automotive market. In keeping with that tradition, this concept car incorporates many important advances developed by SMS. In particular, our patented SMS Red Butterfly Induction System and SMS Light Blade LED Taillight System are definitely the coolest things that any Anniversary car has ever had! When those butterflies crack open under throttle, people stop and stare. You can be sure you'll see those on our future products. And when you're passed by this car and the full-width sequential turn signals come on, you'll be just as awestruck!
"Along with the main features, the supporting cast of innovation developed by SMS is just as deep, including SMS Side Splitters and Diffuser Fences in carbon fiber, SMS billet aluminum signature elements, a beautiful SMS two-tone leather interior and the unique SMS "Chromosome Silver" paint with the signature Anniversary yellow, white, and black graphic accents.
"My Anniversary cars were always the most powerful of the breed, and this car continues that tradition, as it produces 720 horsepower at the crank and 612 horsepower at the rear wheels! And the exhaust note truly is something else. Topped with 670 lb-ft of torque, it's quite a steed to tame, thus it's equipped with SMS Cross Drilled 15-inch 6-Piston Front Brakes and a completely new SMS Billet Aluminum Watts Link System that is robust, durable, and attractive.
"The performance is astounding. The SMS 25th Anniversary Mustang has reached nearly the same levels of performance as was previously achieved in the S7 Twin Turbo! It's not every day that the word "supercar" is associated with a Mustang, but in this case it's appropriate. The team and I are very excited about the vehicle, as it incorporates an entirely new platform of technological advances by SMS, and it's a testament to what our company is capable of. We look forward to it touring the show circuit this summer to show that we're in the business of power!
"I look forward to the next 25 years!"
Key functional and aesthetic innovations:

eBay was contacted by the U.S. Secret Service sometime last month to remove the Liberty Dollar precious metal coins. Citing consistency with eBay's general policy of not listing counterfeit items, eBay spokesperson Ryan Moore confirmed the ban with Coin World. The following email was sent to affected sellers when the systematic removals began:
The United States Secret Service has requested the removal of all Norfed Liberty dollars on the eBay site as counterfeits. … Please do not relist this item(s). We appreciate that you chose to list this coin on our site and understand there was no ill intent on your part. Your listing fees have been credited to your account.
Real is fake and fake is real. That's pretty much the monetary world that we live in now as we are coerced to trade and pay taxes in the designated and one 'legitimate' State currency. Certainly, the U.S. Secret Service wouldn't want anyone purchasing pure (.999 fine) gold and silver medallions mistakenly thinking that they might be getting official and real money issued under the authority of the United States.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- In the wake of recent federal court rulings, West Virginia election officials have yet to decide whether the public-financing pilot program for Supreme Court candidates can offer additional matching funds, prompting the program's sole participant to blast the inaction Monday.
The State Election Commission voted 2-1 on Thursday to postpone addressing whether the program can provide additional money known as "rescue funds.''
The pilot program offers public funds to address concerns about judges being influenced by campaign contributions. Rescue funds are meant to aid participating candidates when they're being outspent by privately funded opponents or independent groups.
But the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Arizona's version of rescue funding for its public-financing program in June 2011. The 5-4 decision concluded that offering matching funds infringes on free speech. A federal judge in North Carolina invoked that case, known as the Bennett decision, last month to rule against a rescue-funding provision in North Carolina's program for judicial candidates.
Allen Loughry, the West Virginia program's only participant, singled out Secretary of State Natalie Tennant for blame Monday. Tennant, West Virginia's elections chief, is a member of the State Election Commission who voted to postpone a decision Thursday.
"Her unprecedented decision not to follow the law has the potential of singlehandedly destroying the pilot project in addition to negatively impacting the entire Supreme Court election,'' Loughry, a longtime Supreme Court law clerk running as a Republican, said in a statement Monday.
Tennant stood by her commission vote and her office's handling of the program while appearing before a legislative interim study subcommittee Monday. Tennant said that none of the other Supreme Court candidates had spent enough as of May 20 to bring the rescue-fund provision into play. These non-participating candidates must report updated spending totals to Tennant's office next month.
"There have been no trigger events to cause any other action other than to stay with the regulations and the deadlines,'' Tennant told the House-Senate judiciary subcommittee assigned to study election-related issues.
She added, "That was my reasoning in saying, `We don't have to make that decision yet.'''
Loughry argues that neither federal ruling applies to West Virginia. During Thursday's State Election Commission meeting, Loughry said the Arizona decision does not address judicial elections, as that state's program is for legislative and executive branch candidates. He also told the commission that the North Carolina ruling came after officials there who lost that case failed to argue their program differed from Arizona's or did not burden free speech.
"No court has decided this issue,'' Loughry said. "No court has concluded that judicial elections should be treated the same as the two political branches.''
