A Salesman in Surgical Gloves: Pseudo Surgeon Published by Outskirts Press

Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated medical surgery book from Sandy, UT, author Wayne S. Clarke.

Sandy, UT, July 22, 2011 -- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Pseudo Surgeon by Wayne S. Clarke. The author's most recent book to date is a 5.5 x 8.5 paperback in the medical surgery category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/pseudosurgeon was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.

Hospitals and operations can be frightening. For many of us, the greatest reassurance lies in knowing that our bodies, our health, and our lives are in the caring and competent hands of an experienced surgeon.

But what if none of those assumptions is true? How would patients feel if they knew that the surgeon was learning to do a new procedure…while operating on them? What if their operation was being used as a training exercise, with an equipment salesman instructing their doctor? And what if that salesman happened to be someone with no formal higher education, who was using his knowledge of surgery and equipment to create a niche where he could more effectively market his product?

It may sound impossible, but these scenarios happen more often than you think. Pseudo Surgeon is the entertaining, enlightening, and frightening story straight from the salesman who was in the operating rooms. The graphic adventures of Pseudo Surgeon are drawn from the memory of the salesman who taught surgeons how to perform operations.

Readers will look at hospitals and doctors in a whole new light.

371 pages in length, Pseudo Surgeon is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the medical surgery category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Pseudo Surgeon meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $19.95.

Additionally, Pseudo Surgeon can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press Direct bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore.

ISBN: 9781432775230

Format: 5.5 x 8.5 paperback cream

SRP: $19.95

Clarke is retired from a thirty-year career of selling high-tech medical equipment and state-of-the-art surgical instruments to nearly every hospital and operating room in the Rocky Mountain area.

Leave It on the Floor Starring America’s Quadruple Threat Performer Ephraim M. Sykes Dances Across the U.S.

Independent film Leave it on the Floor starring actor, singer, dancer and musician Ephraim M. Sykes of stage, television and film has a cult following with U.S. film festivals.

London, United Kingdom, July 21, 2011 -- American singer, actor, dancer and musician Ephraim M. Sykes makes his feature film debut in new musical Leave it on the Floor.

The independent musical had its world premiere this summer at the Los Angeles Film Festival. From Los Angeles the film headed to festivals in San Francisco and Philadelphia with hopeful dates in New York later in the year.

Set in contemporary downtown Los Angeles, Leave It On The Floor, is director Sheldon Larry's audacious, raunchy and big-hearted musical that includes Ephraim's vocals with songs by Beyonce’s music director Kim Burse and choreography by Beyonce’s dance master Frank Gatson Jr. takes audience into the fabulously funky world of voguing.

When asked what attracted him to this role Ephraim replied, "I'd never done a lead role before and when I heard about Kim Burse and Frank Gatson doing the music and choreo, I knew I had to be apart to have a chance to work with them as well."

Ephraim plays the the hunky, homeless hero Brad, discarded by his homophobic mom. His character falls in with the members of the House of Eminence, ruled by the stern aging diva Queef Latina, who keeps a careful, loving watch over her makeshift family of runaways and throwaways. When two of her crew fall for Brad, the Queef is royally unamused.

Ephraim began performing and training at age 11. As a teen, he formed the dance group Impact with his younger sister Martina Sykes and three friends. He is an original cast member of the Tony Award winning musical Memphis where he made his Broadway principle debut, he shared the stage with Cheryl Cole during X Factor UK and has performed in the presence of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama.

Ephraim can be seen as Benny in the Off-Broadway production of Rent in New York, NY.

Acoustifence and QuietFiber Combination Quiet Large Pool Pump System for California Homeowner

In response to complaints from neighbors, a Woodside, California homeowner installed a combination of Acoustifence and QuietFiber noise reduction materials in the large housing unit that contains a bevy of pumps, pipes, and electrical equipment necessary to run the many features of his mountainside infinity pool.


Woodside, CA, July 21, 2011 -- An elaborate infinity pool offers a striking visual in any yard, particularly one with the scenic mountainous backdrop that property owners in Woodside, California enjoy. However, along with such an intricate pool is a complex system of plumbing, pumps, and electrical boxes that can be noisy, particularly in a canyon setting that acts as an echo chamber.

When homeowner Arnon Rosenthal began receiving complaints from his neighbors over the noise emanating from his infinity pool’s extensive pump and maintenance system, he contacted Acoustiblok, Inc. to design a noise deadening solution that could be installed in the slatted wood enclosure that was housing the pumps, plumbing, and electrical hardware that kept his pool’s many features running smoothly.

After discussing his options with Jay Boland, an acoustical consultant with Acoustiblok, Rosenthal chose to layerAcoustifence sound barrier material, which was easily hung on the inside of the existing wood structure, withQuietFiber noise absorbing material, to block sound escaping to the outside, and absorb sound energy within the enclosure. The QuietFiber was sealed around the individual electrical boxes, pipes and pumps for maximum noise reduction.

“It worked very well,” Rosenthal said of the decision to layer Acoustifence and QuietFiber inside the structure. “The pool has many features, and that’s why it requires such a large (pump) system.

“I’m very happy with the results, I’d say the noise is reduced 65- to 70-percent, and it’s no longer a distraction to the neighbors.”

Lahnie Johnson, founder and President of Acoustiblok, Inc., said the decision to layer the Acoustifence and QuietFiber within the pool’s plumbing structure is a perfect example of addressing an unusual noise problem creatively.

“The noise emanating from the structure needed to be blocked to keep it from distracting the neighbors, but the noise within the structure would have been unbearably loud without the absorption qualities of QuietFiber,” Johnson said.

“Combining the two created a noise reduction solution that suited the project perfectly by addressing both problems.”

Originally designed for industrial noise, Acoustifence is a 1/8-inch (3mm) thick unique sound deadening material measuring 6-feet (1.82 meters) high by 30-feet (9.14 meters) long with black anodized brass eyelets along the top and bottom edge for easy attachment. Heavy-duty nylon ties are included with each roll. Easily installed or removed in less than one hour, impervious to mold, mildew, and UV, Acoustifence is virtually indestructible. The soundproofing material in Acoustifence is a proprietary formula of the Acoustiblok Corporation, developed and refined over a 10-year period.

Unlike fiberglass, QuietFiber is not only UV tolerant, but also totally hydrophobic (will not absorb water or moisture), and specifically designed for maximum (NRC 1.00) noise absorption. In addition, it will not support mold or mildew, and can work in temperatures above 180-degrees.

QuietFiber is UL fire rated for floor, wall and ceiling applications, and like all Acoustiblok products, 100-percent recyclable and 100-percent made in the U.S.A.
