No need to pinch me, I know I’m in South Carolina.
Anything leading back to Haley or Ms. Lindsey? Please, Please?? :)
Anything leading back to…Ms. Lindsey?
Sorry,Frank, but “stem cell probe” and “anal probe” are not the same thing.
Now that’s funny!
Any connection to Goldfinch Funeral Home in Pawleys Island, within Goldfinch’s 108th House district?
Hope this investigation moves quicker that the AdTax payoff in Myrtle Beach, right Boz?
Oh, and don’t forget the cemetary.
Oh, that’s right. The Goldfinch family owns the funeral home and the cemetary. Wonder if they own the coroner?
So I’m going to assume Mr. Goldfinch is in the pro-stem cell research arm of the Republican Party, bumping that caucus up to a member of one. Michael J. Fox is giddy with excitement.
If you mean he supports “embryonic” stem cell research, that’s unlikely. The FBI indictments state they were dealing with umbilical cord blood.
Why should there even be any such thing as an illegal organs trade. This is supposed to be a free market economy. All you socialist, want the government to control everything. I should be able to buy and sell organs and stem cells at such rate as the market will bear.
Our system only works if those who are successful benefit from their success by being able to pay for priority. The rest of us make our money by providing the things those with money want and are willing to pay for. That’s what free market medicine is all about. If you want a lung and you’ve got a million bucks you should be able to buy a lung.
“Our system only works if those who are successful benefit from their success by being able to pay for priority. The rest of us”
…the natural assumption being you don’t view yourself as successful.
Not at all, just not as successful as I want to be. I’m successful, but I want to be very, very, successful. That means I need to be able to deal with the people who I want to deal with, and not dregs who can’t pay the freight. Providing goods and services to the highest bidder is how our system creates success.
That’s what the do gooder crowd does not understand. Forcing people to provide goods and services to those who cannot pay the fair value, makes those of us with the goods and services to sell less successful.
“I’m successful, but I want to be very, very, successful”
Yes, and, if wishes were rainbows, my ass would spit out gold coins.
The human organs trade is illegal for the same reason that authorities are forced to remove the tusks from elephants or the horns from rhinos. Think about it.
And what reason is that? The best protection for elephants and rhinos is the free market trade in horns. The free market will push money into the breading of elephants and rhinos for the production of horns, assuring survival of the species; and if it doesn’t, they will become one of the billions of species that did not make it. That’s the nature of nature.
If you are worried, buy land in Africa and create a preserve. Its your money and if you are rich enough to protect elephants, you should be able to do so. That is your reward for your success.
Could you give me the recipe for breading and frying elephants,or is that considered an out patient procedure?
You’ll need a license for that.
If anyone can figure out methods for breading and deep frying elephants though, it’s someone in SC.
I hope he shares the ad where he bought his degree…
CSOL’s new HVAC division, you can study for eight years and get piece of paper that says “MD” on it if you have enough money or get gov’t guaranteed loans.
The fine print says on the HVAC MD diploma says that “MD” stands for “more dollars than brains”, but most employers won’t read it that closely.
edit: “fine print on the HVAC”
Ha! Good one.
Good catch, obviously breeding; but hey, if it makes money think how many more elephant and rhino farms there would be.
I call dibbs on his wife after the shit hits the fan. When she’s broke and finally dumps him I’m hiring her as my “naughty maid”.
You mention Caledonia Consulting and CureSource. You did not mention Rainbow Communications, EntryPoint Capital, Insite TPA, Stephen Goldfinch Attorney at Law, Midcipher, Dammai-Morgan Scientific Consultants, or Waterfront Events. My, my, my.
MUSC also needs to come clean on all of this. This is yet another example of why I care not to hear about trying to get people into research trials when they cannot follow their own protocol and procedure. This needs an investigation to get to the bottom of MUSC management of research.
New Poll:SC is #1 in the nation for dumbest bloggers,ever.

Maybe we can organize a telethon and get the parents of newborn boys to donate circumcised tissue. If we get enough we can construct an extra large turtle neck sweater for Tea MD…one that will stretch to cover his head. He can periodically retract it and post here.
Seriously, Will may have just invented a new incarnation of Big T.
No thanks, no value to that material. Now if you had said umbilical cords, that would be a different matter.
Good sport…
Speaking of which, here is a repeat……
Two guys were standing at adjacent urinals when one says to the other, “I’ll bet you were born in Charleston, SC.”
“Why, that’s right,” said the other guy in surprise.
“And I’ll bet that you were circumcised when you were three days old.”
“Right again, but how’d you —-“
“And I’ll bet it was done by old Doc Sternberg.”
“Well, yes, but how did you know?” asked the second guy in amazement.
“Well, Old Doc always cut them at a sixty-degree angle,” explained the first guy, “and you’re pissing on my shoe.”
Were you mutilized ? It’s never too late to sue…
Nah,I got it figured out.Tattoo removal is the future!$$$$$
Dr. Dammai is set for sentencing in November, according to a Houston newspaper. Wonder how well he knows Nikki’s good friend, Raj Mantena?

I’m sure this will bring out the usual hysterical group that will use this to warn us of the dangers of “unproven” stem cell therapies. There are disreputable people in every profession and industry. Glad this guy got busted but let’s keep it in perspective.
Did these cells come from patients at MUSC?
“According to our sources, the stem cells were obtained through two Conway, S.C. birthing clinics. ”

MUSC just hired a new guy for “technology transfer”! Are they in this for the money? It looks like the position was started in 1995 “to commercialize MUSC research. Was this a MUSC commercialization plan gone bad?
From the Post and Courier:
The Medical University of South Carolina’s Foundation for Research Development has announced a new leader.
Michael Rusnak took over as executive director effective Oct. 1.
The foundation was created in 1995 to commercialize MUSC research, a process sometimes called “technology transfer.”
Rusnak has more than 25 years of experience in the life science industry, the university said in a statement today.
Most recently, he was director of new ventures and technology development
within the technology transfer office at the University of Rochester
Medical Center in New York.
Before that, he was an entrepreneur-in-residence with BCM Technologies Inc., which is part of
the Baylor College of Medicine, where he was involved in starting and
incubating more than five spin-off companies from the school.
He also has held senior positions in biotechnology business development
with Ceros Pharmaceuticals, CombiChem and Lexicon Genetics, among
others.
