Raymond Cox is glad Dr. Benjamin Shepard is on the medical staff at Marshall Medical.
You may have read this story in local newspapers over the holidays - a "good news" story we're glad to share here.
When Raymond Cox believed he had pancreatic cancer with only months to live, he accepted his pending death as God’s will for him. But when Dr. Benjamin Shepard dug deeper to find an accurate – and far less fatal - diagnosis surprised him with the hope of long life, he was thankful to live.
“I had prepared myself that I was going to pass away,” Cox said. “I think he is an awesome doctor.”
Instead of confirming the bad news, Dr. Shepard called to give his patient a surprising diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis, an incredibly rare but very treatable condition.
“I was able to call him and the first thing I said to him was, ‘Raymond, you can put your Christmas tree up this year,’” Dr. Shepard recalled saying in December. “I was really happy about that. I don’t get to make that many of those kinds of phone calls. Most of the phone calls I make are telling folks they have cancer, unfortunately.”
Cox, a truck driver for 30 years, began losing weight and falling earlier in 2018. Very yellow with jaundice when he went for blood work, he was sent straight to the hospital. A CT scan didn’t show anything on his pancreas and only dilated bile ducts in the liver. An appointment was made with Dr. Shepard, a gastroenterologist with a background in cancer care.
“We kind of knew we were in trouble,” said Cox’s wife of 48 years, Judy.
Dr. Shepard determined Cox had painless jaundice, which he said usually indicates pancreatic cancer in anyone over 50. Because of complications in the bile duct and concerns about the pancreas, Dr. Shepard took a look at the mass with an endoscopic ultrasound, a new technology recently added at Marshall Medical.
‘It didn’t look good because it was encasing an artery,” he said. “That’s not what you want to see.”
He biopsied the 28-millimeter mass and put a stent in the bile duct.
“I told him it didn’t look good,” said Dr. Shepard.
Unexpectedly, the pathology came back negative for cancer. Both Dr. Shepard and Pathologist Dr. James Lee were left scratching their heads. Knowing there were a few conditions that could masquerade as pancreatic cancer, Dr. Shepard decided to bring Cox back for further testing.
“All of those other things are much better than pancreatic cancer,” he said. “They are very, very rare.”
One is autoimmune pancreatitis, which occurs in only three in 100,000 people, and only 10 percent of that number would also have a bile duct involvement. When Dr. Shepard tested for that, the results were off the charts.
Autoimmune pancreatitis is difficult to diagnose because its symptoms are very similar to those of pancreatic cancer. It requires a test for elevated levels of an immunoglobulin called IgG4, produced by the immune system.
Dr. Shepard used larger needles for the second biopsy and got more tissue so the pathologist could use a stain necessary for diagnosis.
“I have to credit Dr. Lee because this is difficult to get a good lab specimen on,” he said. “He put the IgG4 stain on it and it lit up. It was very typical of that diagnosis and disease process.”
It was the first time Dr. Shepard had ever seen autoimmune pancreatitis in a patient.
“It’s incredibly rare,” he said. “I’ve looked for it many times. We always hope to see it. I’ve always wanted to diagnose it because it’s way better than the above. This, in light of what he could have, is a gift. It’s treatable with steroids. It’s not a fatal disease.”
An autoimmune disease like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, the condition would make someone very sick without treatment. An inflammatory disease will continue to worsen, causing fatigue and continuing jaundice.
“I’m really happy for him” Dr. Shepard said. “I’m really happy for his wife and his family.”
The Coxes, naturally, were extremely relieved.
“We were very joyful,” Judy said. “We just kept our faith and put our trust in Dr. Shepard.”
She praised the physician who personally called her husband almost every day through the ordeal.
“Whoever was instrumental in bringing him here gave this area a blessing,” she said.
John Anderson, administrator at Marshall South, commended the work of Dr. Lee and Dr. Shepard, both of whom were hired within the past two years. He noted the financial investments made to equip Dr. Shepard to make breakthrough diagnoses such as this one. You can read more at this technology in this recent issue of HealthConnections.
“He brought the expertise with him so we bought the equipment to allow him to use it,” Anderson said. “We are all very happy for Mr. Cox and his family in getting the wonderful news.”
The Coxes are not convinced another doctor would have done or would have been able to do what Dr. Shepard did.
“He went the extra mile,” she said. “He was excited to get to give us good news instead of bad.
Cox now believes there is a divine reason for his death sentence being overturned, even though he said he was looking forward to a reunion with the couple’s deceased son and only child, Jody.
“I was fortunate to be put there with Dr. Shepard,” he said.
For his part, Dr. Shepard played down his role in the happy ending.
“They’re giving me a lot of credit but I’m just doing my job.”


Please, HELP this Act take the next step
The Resolve Tibet Act has been passed by the House of Representatives, which is a huge step forward for a bill that aims to bring China back to the negotiating table with His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Central Tibetan Administration.
The bill will clarify American policy, telling China that the dispute with China is not resolved. It also refutes Beijing's false claim that Tibet has historically belonged to China and states that the PRC has failed to meet the expectations of the United States to engage in meaningful dialogue with Tibetans.
The bill still needs to move through the US Senate, and so today the International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) is calling on all friends and members in the US to petition their senators to cosponsor the bill and move it towards passage.
Please sign the ICT petition and share it with others who care about Tibet.

LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) - Indiana lost all but one point of a 17-point lead during the final 3:02, but the 19th-ranked Hoosiers held on to beat No. 20 Gonzaga 76-75 Tuesday night in the semifinals of the Maui Invitational.
Indiana (2-0) advanced to the championship game of the eight-team tournament for the third time since 1990 and will play Virginia, which beat No. 15 Kentucky 75-61 earlier, tonight. The Hoosiers lost to Syracuse in the title game in 1990 and 1998.
A 3-pointer by Tom Coverdale gave Indiana a 68-53 lead with 3:44 to play, and a layup by Jeff Newton 22 seconds later gave the Hoosiers a 17-point lead. But the Bulldogs (2-1) got within 75-70 with 15 seconds left.
In the first semifinal, Devin Smith hit three 3-pointers in the final six minutes - one more than Kentucky managed in the game.
Smith, a 6-foot-5 junior college transfer, was 2-for-7 from 3-point range in the Cavaliers' first two games of the season, but he made three of four from beyond the arc in the last six minutes.

Thurmond Bill Will Permit Berkeley Voters to Raise Funds to Address Homelessness Passes Assembly
SACRAMENTO – AB 2920, authored by Assemblymember Thurmond (D- Richmond), will provide the Berkeley City Council with the opportunity to place a sales tax measure on the ballot that would fund and address homelessness and other city services such as mental health and public safety. If a potential sales tax measure of up to .5 percent is placed on the ballot in the future, it would need to be approved by voters. The bill has passed out of the Assembly and heads to the Senate.
The City of Berkeley has a homeless crisis declaration in place. The number of individual homeless residents has increased by 16 percent since 2015 and is up 43 percent from 2009. High housing costs make it difficult for these residents to purchase another home.
“As the cost of housing has increased so has Berkeley’s homeless population,” said Thurmond. “This bill will allow voters to choose whether they want to increase taxes to address this need. I am happy to partner with the City of Berkeley to address the issue locally, while continuing to fight for statewide solutions as well.”
In addition to generating more revenue to reduce homelessness, Berkeley seeks to use the potential funds in support of community policing and provide care to residents suffering from mental illnesses.
AB 2920 is sponsored by the City of Berkeley.
RELEASE CONTACT: Ayodeji Taylor (916) 319-2015
Assemblymember Tony Thurmond represents the 15th Assembly District, comprised of the cities of Albany, Berkeley, El Cerrito, El Sobrante, Emeryville, Hercules, Kensington, Piedmont, Pinole, Richmond, San Pablo, Tara Hills, and a portion of Oakland.

It’s Tuesday, huh? Well I guess it’s time for us to post another Killer-Graphics column then. So a few weeks back we kicked off our Dead By Summer Sweepstakes with the ever awesome crew over at Electric Zombie.com. And while you can still enter for your chance to win some absolutely awesome swag from the gang, we have just a little bit more love from Electric Zombie to our readers as we sit down one-on-one with owner and t-shirt designer, Kyle Crawford. Read on for the full interview.
KYLE CRAWFORD:”The name Electric Zombie, came from a design I did for the band From First To Last back in 2006. The design was a collabration design between the band and Rockett Clothing, where I actually developed my horror themed design niche. It featured a small group of zombies, electrical plugs and lightning bolts. I named the file “Electric Zombie”. I liked how it sounded and just went with the name as an alias for my projects and graphic design handle. In 2007, I had scored a job with Warner Bros Records and was making a good amount of money. After a falling out with Rockett, I decided to save all my ideas for my own endevour. I never had any problems coming up with a name, I just stuck with Electric Zombie, in hope that people, fans and followers would put 2 and 2 together. In December of 2007, I came out with 6 designs off the bat, and then a few months later another 4. It’s kind of taken off from there.”
THEoDEAD:”So what made you want to start “Electric Zombie”? Have you always been a big horror fan yourself?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”My dad pretty much raised me to be a horror freak. I remember watching Evil Dead when I was like 3, and we lived on elm street, so the Nightmare series has always had a spot in my heart.
But in all honesty, I am sort of a poser Horror fan. I’m not a huge fan of underground or foreign or B-movie type movies. I’m a straight up Hollywood horror lover. I’m sure I’ll get tons of eye brow raises, but hey! I like my Toxic Avengers and Hatchet and the like, I just can’t get into movies like Feast and Poultrygeist or Dead Alive. Just over exaggerated retardedness. Visit my site for my email for all hate mail! Ha! ”
THEoDEAD:”In doing “Electric Zombie” you are mostly a one man show. What goes into making the designs for the shirts? You use so many iconic characters like Freddy and Jason. How does something like that come together?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”I have this book of ideas that I’m always writing in. It just happens. I wish I could explain where the ideas come from. A lot of the time I’ll look through all the resources I have and I’ll find ways to put them together and collage them and make them look like a poster or an image that already exists. Things just pop in my head. It’s a very fortunate gift. A good part of the time, I design stuff for bands and I’ll write down the file name in my book so that I can go back and revisit it and put my own Electric Zombie twist on it. It’s hard to do a design for someone and think the whole time, “Man, I should totally keep this” . But in the end it works out. There’s no real answer of where I get the ideas from, sometimes, you just see something, hear something and it just clicks. I can’t tell you how many times I come up with an idea while laying in bed and just pop up and write it down. ”
THEoDEAD:”A lot of the shirts feel as if they have been ripped straight from a Hot Topic store and many of the designs resemble that of a metal band tee. Does your musical influence inspire you while you’re making your designs at all?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”I usually try and mesh the two together. I have this new shirt coming out and it’s a mix of Metallica and Freddy. I feel like a lot of my shirts have that punk rock / metal feel. I have a massive amount of skateboard influence. I have a very nostalgic flare to what I put out.
I do a good portion of Hot Topic designs, so I can see where that might come into play. Electric Zombie is just a hobby a do for a few months a year (collectively). My passion and job is designing merch and anything music related for bands and the music industry. When you do that all day every day, it’s bound to wear off on Electric Zombie related stuff. ”
THEoDEAD:”Many of your designs are very unique, and wildly different than what we see coming from most companies. For example, the “DOME” tee takes the classic V-Neck design and turns it on its head. (for lack of a better pun) How did you come up with a design like that?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”Sometimes you see an iconic image and wish that you could have it on a shirt. I’m one of those people who take the risk and just make the shirt. With that particular design, I spent so much time trying to figure out how I could make it cool. All it took was me putting on a v-neck. It just clicked. Usually I put my edge on it, but the image itself was too good, and just worked out perfectly. ”
THEoDEAD:”You have a new line of shirts on the way? What can horror fans expect from not only this but “ELECTRIC ZOMBIE” as a whole down the road?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”Usually in the summer I try and do the fun, goofy and spoof shirts. More in your face designs. When I think summer, I think of tours, and skateboarding, and beign outside, sunglasses and of course, MOVIES. I have a summer movie collection coming out and a bunch of skateboard influenced shirts and a few music based designs. I feel like the fall is the time to do the dark, serious and more gorey designs. I think it’s best to work with your surroundings, and timing is definitely everything. Summer is fun and Fall is gloomy, it gets darker earlier and creepy things go down. But this fall I am hoping to go with a theme and color scheme going. I’ve already started planning and I’m pretty excited. ”
THEoDEAD:”Do you have any new projects coming up you’d like to plug? We are giving you a free shot here!
KYLE CRAWFORD:”Besides the new line of 26 tees, 4 posters, 2 skatedecks, 3 hoodie and a varsity jacket. I have a collab with Fright Rags coming up that I can’t talk about other than that. I have a possible music tour coming up, and maybe a few more things around back to school time. I’m hoping to do more custom items, like the jeans I already have out. More than just shirts. We’ll just have to wait and see! ”
THEoDEAD:”Last, but most certainly not least, Freddy VS Jason-Who wins?
KYLE CRAWFORD:”Freddy, hands down. Jason may look cooler, but he’s a momma’s boy with retard strength. You can’t run from your dreams. Maybe I’ll change my mind when the new movie comes out. But Robert England Freddy vs Kane Hodder Jason. I’d put my money on Freddy. At least you know where Freddy gets his powers from. Jason just keeps coming back? Sounds like a bitch to me. ”
Everyone here at Bloody-Disgusting.com would like to thank Kyle for being an awesome sport and working with us with this interview and in our Dead By Summer Sweepstakes. If you would like to check out all of Kyle’s work head on over to Electric Zombie.com and be sure to keep things locked here at Bloody-Disgusting.com’s Graphic Content next week as we bring you another gruesome installment of our Killer-Graphics column!

How do you play canasta for beginners?
To start a Canasta game, follow these steps:
- Draw cards to pick teams; partners sit opposite of each other.
- Draw cards to see who plays first and who is the dealer.
- Deal out 11 cards to each player in clockwise rotation.
- Build the discard pile.
Is Canasta hard to play?
Canasta combines elements of Bridge and Rummy. This game is easy to learn, especially for players of these games. This game uses two full decks of cards (including the jokers) and combines partnership play with point-scoring (jokers are worth the most points).
How many decks is 2 player canasta?
Canasta is a Rummy type game of melding that is played with two 52 playing card decks and two teams of 2.
How many decks of cards do you need for 3 person canasta?
Canasta rules require 2 decks of cards, including the jokers, for a total of 104 cards. The dealer shuffles the deck and offers his opponent to cut the deck.
What does a black 3 mean in canasta?
A player may go out by melding, laying off, or discarding the last card from in hand, provided that the partnership has made at least one canasta. A player cannot go out if, after the draw, he holds two black 3s and nothing else. With just one black 3, he could go out by discarding it.
Can I learn canasta online?
The game of canasta requires two decks of cards and the jokers are used so you will need a total of 108 cards. You can learn this card game online for free with the following instructions. Deal seven cards face down in two piles. One pile consists of three cards and the other pile consists of four cards.
What are the rules for pinochle?
Each trick consists of a lead and a play. The non-dealer leads; thereafter the winner of each trick leads next. When a trump is led, it wins the trick unless the opponent plays a higher trump. When any other suit is led, the card led wins unless the opponent plays a higher card of the same suit or a trump.
Can you play canasta online with friends?
For the most exciting experience you can play online against players from all over the world and climb the leaderboards or challenge your friends and family. Canasta is perfect for everyone who loves to play card and puzzle games. If you enjoy Rummy or Bridge, you’ll love it.
What is a talon in canasta?
* One Talon is the bottom 8 cards of the stock pile. * The second Talon is after melding, the team to meld first is entitled to pick 4 cards. * The player may not pick a Talon of 4 or 3 cards once play has reached the last 8 cards (2nd Talon).
What does canasta mean?
1: a form of rummy using two full decks in which players or partnerships try to meld groups of three or more cards of the same rank and score bonuses for 7-card melds. 2: a meld of seven cards of the same rank in canasta.
Do you need a special deck of cards for canasta?
A meld comprising seven or more cards, including at least four natural cards (called a “base”), is a canasta. If a player takes the discard pile, the top card but no other may count toward the requirement. Bonuses for red threes and canastas do not count toward the minimum.

1 1/4 c. masa harina
1 1/4 c. hot water
10 Tb. lard (or veg. shortening)
1 1/2 t. salt
1 t. baking powder
1/4. c. chilled chicken stock (or other stock or water)
1. Put masa in a mixer with paddle attachement. Slowly add water until a soft dough forms. Mix for 5 minutes more.
2. Allow dough to chill and rest for 1 hour in a fridge.
3. Put back in mixer and mix on high and mix for 5 minutes.
4. Add the lard 2 Tb. at a time until all is in corporated. Mix for 5 minutes longer, until light and fluffy.
5. Mix together the salt, baking powder, and stock. Add to masa and mix for 5 minutes more.
That is the basic tamale dough. Fill with whatever ingredients you desire and steam for about 30-45 minutes depending on the size of your tamales. I usually use corn husks for wrapping tamales, but if you dont have any or need to save time you can wrap them in plastic wrap.

Hello all. New to this please forgive me.
I really don't know what to do. Two days ago, I paid £2200 for a Renault Laguna Tourer 1.9 Dci Dynamique bought from a local garage. It has highish miles (122000) but a full (independant) service history so wasn't worried. (Cam belt done at 80000 miles, no repair reciepts with the car.)
Following morning, I was driving to work and the glow plug light came on and the car lost power. I got to work, called the garage and they said bring it in and we'll put in on the diag machine. I don't remember exactly what the fault code said, but was something along the lines of "Heater control circuit high(??)".
He reset it and said it could just be a glitch. However this morning, in exactly the same place on route to work, the same thing happened. I've left the car with them now for a more thorough investigation but after doing some research on various forums, I'm starting to get worried. Could the
be on the way out? Should I ask them to take the car back? I've used my savings to buy the car and certainly can't afford a hefty repair bill.

Imperial Development Group’s 6 Cortlandt Alley fuses traditional TriBeCa with top-level finishes.
The eight stories at 6 Cortlandt Alley pack quite a punch. Three luxurious lofts support two exquisite penthouses in this historic East TriBeCa Italianate building dating back to the mid-1800s. In addition to witnessing 160 years of New York City history, 6 Cortlandt Alley also gives its residents a space in which to quietly and discreetly tuck themselves away from the busy streets of one of Manhattan’s most iconic neighborhoods.
We got a chance to see the property up close when we toured it with Ryan Kaplan, Partner at Imperial Development Group, the team codeveloping 6 Cortlandt Alley with Megalith Capital. Before we got into the building itself, Kaplan filled us in on what makes East TriBeCa the place to be. “What makes TriBeCa so great is that it is close to the Financial District, so many people making money on Wall Street decide to move here because they need a place nearby. It has the best public schools and is very well amenitized. East TriBeCa and West TriBeCa share the industrial architecture, but West TriBeCa is a bit more quiet and has less access to transportation. There are 11 subway lines that cross Canal and Franklin Streets and the world-class SoHo shopping district is just four blocks away.” Even though East TriBeCa has the best of everything you need to keep you occupied into the next millennia, when the inevitable urge to wander back to your residence besets you, you will be amazed at the level of serenity that befalls you upon entering Cortlandt Alley.
Constructed and designed with the theme of repurposing, the interiors and exteriors of 6 Cortlandt Alley both reflect the diverse architectural background of the area and incorporate local materials, giving this building a distinctive flair. Experts in restoration have worked on the exterior to endow it with the marble and red brick that distinguishes the historic architecture of TriBeCa from other neighborhoods. When you enter the lobby, you’ll first notice the reclaimed heart pine from the building’s previous floor joists and the exposed brick walls lining the space.
Moving on to the residences themselves, each one gives you a sense of the building’s history and how it fits into the wider neighborhood context. As Kaplan pointed out, “None of these buildings were originally meant to be residential spaces. They were all artist studios or manufacturing locations. It was only after people started coming down and seeing these tremendous proportions, the tall ceiling heights and windows, coupled with the fabric of a time long gone, that they started repurposing them into residences.” Each unit has ceilings that are no shorter than 10 feet in the primary living areas. Some even boast 12-foot ceilings. Furthermore, Imperial Development Group has gone the extra mile to source local materials such as the Poconos-milled custom walnut cabinetry and the Imperial Danby countertops made of marble quarried in Vermont.
Finally, because of 6 Cortlandt Alley’s sizable subcellar, the boutique building boasts amenities that you may only see in other large-scale projects — think gym, playroom, and private storage units. With all this in mind, if you’re looking for the best in boutique real estate, consider your search complete.
Particulars 6 Cortdlandt Alley
Place: TriBeCa, New York
Property: 5 Residences
Plans: 3,400 – 3,700 square feet
Price: Starting at $6.995 million

This spicy and savory soup warms you up from the inside out.
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup chopped onions
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (or to taste)
2 t ground cumin
1 t ground coriander
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cut into thin half-moons*
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into thin half-moons
1/2 t garam masala
6 cups vegan vegetable broth
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add the onion and and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add the cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt and pepper, mixing well. Cook for another minute.
Add the butternut squash and sweet potato and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir frequently, scraping the bottom of the pot.
Add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil, continuing to stir occasionally. Lower the heat, partially cover, and cook until the squash is very tender, about 20 minutes. Use a potato masher as the soup is cooking to break up the vegetables.
Stir in the garam masala.
You can adjust the consistency to your preference. For a rustic soup, leave some texture. If you prefer a smooth soup, puree using an immersion or regular blender. Just be sure to cool off the soup a bit before putting it in a blender.
Taste for seasoning and enjoy.
*A food processor fitted with the slicing blade makes short work of the task. Cut the squash and potato into large chunks and feed into the food processor for slicing.

IRVINE, CA, October 26, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A new book by John Boik, Ph.D. titled "Creating Sustainable Societies: The Rebirth of Democracy and Local Economies" combines cues from ancient Athens, modern New England and computational sociology to offer a novel solution to current political ills: collaborative direct democracy.
"The U.S. political system is in trouble. Apathy is widespread, the two-party system limits the political process, big corporations and wealthy individuals exercise undue influence over legislation and elections, and campaign costs are skyrocketing," said Boik. "With help from modern communications technology and developments in the social sciences, we can do better. The promise of effective, efficient, transparent, and engaging systems of online voting and e-governance lies before us."
Boik founded the Principled Societies Project in 2012. The project's aim is to develop and test new systems of finance, economics, and governance intended for metro-scale implementation. Systems tested include e-governance, local currencies and socially responsible corporate models. Scientific pilot trials are planned using volunteers in host cities. Rather than replacing current systems, the new systems act as complements.
"Building the health and well-being of local communities is a viable path to a brighter and more democratic future," said Boik. "The technology and science are now available, and the book presents a strategy to take the next step forward."
Mariano Torras, a professor of economics at Adelphi University, noted that the book "not only lucidly presents the principal challenges of the 21st century but also contributes concrete ideas about how to address them." Ian Fletcher, a senior economist for the Coalition for a Prosperous America, cites the book as "a welcome addition to the much-needed debate on political and economic self-determination."
Boik is a visiting scientist at the University of California Irvine. He received a Ph.D. in biomedical sciences from the University of Texas, Health Sciences Center, Houston, and completed postdoctoral work at Stanford University, Department of Statistics.

Calling all fellow bookworms, library nerds, and general lovers of literature — it’s time for another book club episode of the podcast!
Whenever there are five Fridays in a month, we devote the extra Friday to a book that we can’t get enough of. In this episode, we’re diving into the #1 New York Times bestseller E-Squared by Pam Grout.
We’ve recommended this book to so many people over the years because it bridges the gap between science and spirituality in a fun, easy-to-do way. If you really want to believe in something — call it the Universe, infinite intelligence, whatever! — but are skeptical, or just can’t find enough proof to allow you to relax, you’re going to dig this episode.
We talked about…
- Why religion and believing in a higher power are totally separate things.
- How your thoughts create your reality, 100% of the time.
- 3 experiments you can do to prove that an infinitely intelligent force exists, and that you have the power to influence it.
- Lots of stories from us, and our clients, that prove these experiments work!
After you’ve listened, leave us a comment to let us know which nuggets of wisdom from this book resonated with you most and what experiments you’re going to try!

Classifying sprains and strains
Both sprains and strains are graded as first, second, and third degree. First degree is the least severe, typically with minimal pain inducing damage. A first-degree sprain or strain may involve mild pain and swelling, but usually you can still place your full weight on the joint and have normal range of motion. A second-degree sprain or strain is moderately worse with wider spread damage, involving a greater degree of tearing, pain, and swelling. In a second-degree sprain or strain, you may experience a reduced ability to move the joint or bear weight on it. With a second-degree injury, you will still be able to move the joint quite a bit, although doing so will be quite a bit more painful than a first-degree injury. A third-degree sprain or strain, however, is quite significant with severely limited motion in the joint. In a third-degree injury, the ligament, tendon, or other tissues may be completely or nearly completely torn. In third-degree injuries, you may not have the ability to move the joint regardless of the amount of pain associated with the injury.
Seek help for your sprains and strains
If you believe you have suffered from a sprain or a strain, be sure to seek the evaluation and advice of your podiatrist before continuing with your normal activities. Leaving a sprain or strain untreated and continuing regular activities may prolong healing or make the injury worse, particularly if you have suffered previous similar injuries. Be sure to seek an evaluation from a podiatrist if you have a deformity of the joint or moderate to significant pain or swelling. Avoid putting weight on the injured joint until your podiatrist gives you permission to do so. Because fractures may cause similar symptoms, it is important to have your podiatrist thoroughly evaluate the injury which often will include x-rays as well as a physical examination.
If your podiatrist determines that do have a sprain or strain, you will be asked to limit your activity for two or three days to allow the pain and swelling to go down as the joint heals. You have probably heard of RICE — rest, ice, compression, elevation — but you will also want to add P (PRICE) which stands for “protect.” By following conservative measures, you may be able to prevent further injury to the joint. Once your injury is feeling better, you may be able to return to your activities slowly. Avoid returning to your full routine too soon in order to allow for the maximum amount of healing. If you have had several prior sprains or strains, you may benefit from wearing different shoes, orthotic inserts, or physical therapy. If after the first few days you are still experiencing pain and swelling, bruising, or find that you can’t put weight on the affected area, follow up with your podiatrist again for re-evaluation.
Minimize your risk of sprains and strains
You may be able to minimize your risk of sprains or strains by having a thorough evaluation of your feet and ankles by a podiatrist to assess the health of your legs, ankles, and feet. Your podiatrist may be able to provide you with valuable advice about shoes, orthotics, or exercise and fitness routines. Ideally, with your podiatrist’s help, you should develop a well-rounded fitness regimen that combines both cardiovascular exercise and strength training, preferably combining different types of activities to avoid overuse injuries of any particular joints. Staying physically active and following a healthy diet will help to control your weight, keeping excess pressure off your feet and ankles. In addition, exercise helps build healthy, strong bones as well as cardiovascular health.
If you suspect you have a sprain or strain, or suffer from any other foot or ankle ailments, including heel pain, please call the podiatrists at Kansas City Foot Specialists today at (913) 338-4440 today to schedule an appointment.

Welcome to our Site for MG, Triumph and Austin-Healey Car Information.
MG MGB Technical - carbs
|When I built my V8 roadster 12 years ago, I bought most of it as a non started project. One of the parts was a JWR Offenhauser inlet, so i bought a Webber to bolt on. I have never been able to iron out a flat spot, despite many hours spent with a jet and needle kit etc.. I gave up this year and converted to HIF 6's. |
What a difference!! Smooth progressive power with no hint of hesitation. Just goes to prove what a wonderful piece of engineering the SU is.
Good to hear you have found something that works for you but I'm interested to know what the Webber was as in two barrel or four and what size (cfm)
4 barrel Edelbrock 1400 series/Weber 500. This roadster has a Rover Vitesse 3.5I but I also have twin HIF 6's on a 3.9 V8. Neither show any signs of high end starvation, the 3.9 producing 220+bhp. I can understand the racers ("boy" and track) using these high flowing carbs on highly tuned engines, when most of their driving time is spent high up the rev range on the secondary chokes, but I consider that the complication of the transitions between the 3 pairs of jets, the two needles/springs and the accelerator pump makes them too difficult to tune for smooth progress under normal driving.
You have made a good choice going to SUs for a road car
The Edelbrock 1400 is a loose copy of an American Carter
They are sensitive to engine size- and if the carb is a bit big there will be THAT flatspot that you will never get rid of--- Unfortunately that 500 won't work on a 3.5 without engine mods like heads ,cam ,exhaust etc and even then would be borderline too big for a normal road car
I had a 500 on a standard tune 4.2 and like you played with needles and jets for ages and couldn't get rid of the stumble completely .When I went to 4.4 litres with a bit of a camshaft it went like a jet in a straight line--Different thing alltogether - but around corners it wasn't much chop, as soon as you cornered fairly hard it suffered real bad fuel surge which again I tried for ages to cure as it would have been a real goer but no--Ended up with a centre swing Holley and all was well
A good guide for picking max. carb size for a standard or mildly tuned road car is double the cubic inch capacity of the engine
200 cubic inch engine---400cfm carb
Lots of people use max revs for calculating carb size but honestly, are they going to drive around at 6000 revs all day - I don't think so - If they were honest that they probably drive mostly up to around half that for road use they would calculate half the sized carb which will actually do a better job and will actually be responsive to tuning
Enjoy your SU's
|Willy, I've just checked the Edelbrock, it's a 1404. The heads are worked, I have decent headers (RV8 type) exiting through the flitches coupled to a good free flow exhaust, also a Viper Hurricane cam. According to RPI the carb should suit the engine, but there again engines are different!! I'm looking at my record of the changes made from the stock set up which ran rich. I definitely finished up, in stages, at the lean end. It did go really well and was extremely fast but the pick up stumble from a trailing throttle was really annoying. I have also re-built the dissy and played with the advance curve quite a bit as well as coupling it to good amplifier. |
Maybe the pump isn't up to bridging the fuel gap as the butterflies open and running the idle and primaries rich would have helped the progression!
Thanks for the reply.
Sounds like a nice setup you've got going there
As the carby is on the larger size for a road car, but not so much with the mods you have done-- it's close Possibly slightly larger idle jets to help with the progression onto the mains --maybe
A trip with a gas analyzer would be the only real way of sorting it-------ooorrrrr---SU's
A mate had a pair of 2" SU's on a 3.9 in a B and it was an absolute weapon on the road
|Weber's are good if you dont mind replacing them with new units from time to time. SU's are imminently repairable. I have had a number of V8 powered British cars equipped with the GM Rochester 4 barrel carb and Buick intake manifold on a Buick block. The Edelbrock stuff is crap unless you put on very few miles, the Webers need too much attention and tend to flat spots in power. I would rate well matched SU's up against the Rochester carbs as the best available for those (GM or Rover V8's)engines. The Rochester is easier to tune and will go much longer between service, but SU up to the task, also. An advantage to the GM carbs is the secondary circuit, that can be wired shut if you prefer making fuel mileage over giddy-up.|
|The Strombergs on the Range Rover 3500 were simple and effective. S.Us of course are a notch better.|

Ms Tirkey was a migrant worker from India employed by the Chandhoks as a domestic worker. She claimed that she had been treated badly by them and this was partly due to the fact that she was from a lower caste.
Ms Tirkey had brought other claims against the Chandhoks in the Tribunal and sought to include her claim for caste discrimination as part of her race and religious discrimination claim.
The Chandhoks applied to strike out this aspect of her claim on the ground that “caste” did not fall within the definition of “race” in the EA 2010.
The EAT dismissed the appeal and permitted the caste discrimination claim to proceed to a full hearing in the Employment Tribunal. It was held that Ms Tirkey could bring a claim for caste discrimination under the law as it currently stands. Despite caste not yet separately being mentioned in the EA 2010, it was deemed to fall under the “ethnic or national origins” limb of “race” under the EA 2010.
It was also noted that although caste is not a freestanding protected characteristic, as elements of caste identity may form part of an individual’s ethnic origin, caste discrimination may be protected as a form of race discrimination. However these factual matters are to be dealt with subjectively by the Employment Tribunal deciding any individual case.
Until the EA 2010 is formally amended, employers should be aware of this case and amend their policies and procedures that are currently in place in order to cover this wider interpretation of “race” in order to prevent the possibility of any potential claims being made.

Your Favourite Photoshop Tutorials in One Place
Water Drops in Photoshop
This is a video tutorial. It will show you how to create some realistic water drop in 5 mins. The basic idea of how to create water drops is that they are a bit complex, they have highlights, shadows, transparencies, inner shadows and inner highlights. The best thing is that we can create all of those effects using the Layer Styles in Photoshop.
In this little Photoshop tutorial we’ll be designing a quick art piece, then we’ll be adding some texture to it, this is to demonstrate the use of texture in artwork,you can finish off by adding a few layers with solid colors in them, then mess with the layer modes and opacities.
In this tutorial, it will show you how to create a nice colorful bubble effect in Photoshop. To begin with, you need to create a background in black, then start to define the circle pattern brush. After the bubble creation, apply the color effect to finalize this tutorial.
To some common Photoshop users, they may not be familiar to create a smudge signature. The procedure for this creation is not as complicate as you thought. You can generate your signature in few steps using blending mode’s function.
In this tutorial I will create an effect like the one in the header of the MSNBC.com website. This effect is a reader’s request tutorial. If you are using the CS3 version of Photoshop you can use the Smart Filters to test different values and see the effects without worrying about losing the previous version.
In this tutorial, you will be able to learn how to feature a soft drink product. It really relies on a combination of using difference blending mode and radial blur filter to achieve unique colors, contrast, and lighting to emphasis the effect.
In this tutorial we are going to create a wood texture and apply some artwork on top of it that has an aged paint feel. To begin, make a new document as shown below. Noise always helps make artificial things look more organic.
In this tutorial we are going to create a textured tag that you can use in your website designs. Adding textured elements to modern web designs is a current trend. Creating texture is a lot of fun. It makes design elements that you create unique. Let me know if you find a cool use for your own tag design.

Education and the Rigorous Tying Up of Milk ☆
It always surprises me when people seem to get away with the argument that we need better education in order to maintain our national primacy. Tired nationalism keeps on kicking. And yet, isn’t it interesting how compelling it is in its apparent simplicity? Even as we become sensitive to the atrocities of Empire, the notion of staying ahead educationally seems reasonable and compelling.
If this is the prime ideological context for education in this country, then ironically the call for rigorous education is couched in the most un-rigorous of dreams. Rigor is merely de rigour: a question of etiquette and protocol.
Education as the diplomatic extension of war. The Luke-warm War, we could call it.
Interestingly, Larry Cuban, takes an alternative tack. Instead of pushing into the absurdity of the competitive drive, he simply decouples its educational assumption. Just because we want to stay ahead, doesn’t mean more education is the answer:
Presidents H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush have sought national goals such “common core” standards so that the U.S. would be better able to compete with Asian and European for global markets. Now, President Obama has reaffirmed that goal. In a talk to the nation’s governors he said:
“[Asian nations] want their kids to excel because they understand that whichever country out-educates the other is going to out-compete us in the future. So that’s what we’re up against. That’s what’s at stake -– nothing less than our primacy in the world…. And I want to commend all of you for acting collectively through the National Governors Association to develop common academic standards that will better position our students for success.”
The link between more and rigorous schooling–everyone goes to college–and enhanced economic competitiveness is gospel among both political conservatives and liberals. Since the 1970s, The mantra of “human capital” preached by economists and adopted by national and state policymakers of both political parties as biblical truth depends upon correlational evidence–lifetime earnings associated with level of formal schooling. Seldom do the facts of a largely knowledge- and service-driven labor market enter policymaker debates . For example, in a technology-dependent economy, 70 percent of current jobs require only a high school diploma. Twenty percent require a bachelor’s degree and only 10 percent need technical training.
Does this leave our dream intact, and just call for a rethinking of the numbers? Or does showing the un-grounded nature of the dream itself ask us to reevaluate why we find the narrative so compelling?
Or is it more difficult than that: is it the call for rigor that is operative, which is precisely in opposition to any rigor achieved? We must keep ourselves busy. In this case, the most radical proposition would be that we don’t even want to keep ahead of the world, we just want to not have to think about what we are doing in the name of education. This would be the more elusive danger.
I am reminded of the joke about the farmer who refuses to lend his neighbor a rope because, he claims, he is using it to tie up his milk. The neighbor points out how absurd that is, to which the farmer responds, “Maybe, but if I don’t want to lend you the rope, one excuse is as good as another.”
The joke, of course is that you aren’t supposed to say that to the person’s face. It is de rigour to at least come up with a reasonable sounding excuse. But the truth is that we hardly want to be bothered. In this sense, pointing out the absurdity of logic changes nothing. Whether we are using our rigor to tie up milk or not hardly matters, what we prefer is not to have to come up with a good use for it. In that case, the real joke is not that we have said the unsayable at the expense of the neighbor, showing competition to trump reason.
The joke is instead that the neighbor is our excuse for why we rigorously tie up our milk. The neighbor is expendable, but as a necessary expense to cover up the absurdity that the tying of milk is essential.


Between shooting films and designing homes, S. Sashikanth talks to Sudhish Kamath about stumbling blocks and success
He went through college believing he was the best architecture student but flunked his thesis.
He was drawn to films, so he assisted Thotta Tharani on Shankar's “Mudhalvan”, only to drop out of it in three months.
He even became a mango farmer for a year before he decided to go back and give his architecture exam again.
He emerged as the University topper — for the same design that resulted in him flunking his thesis.
“That taught me the most valuable lesson that two people can give extreme perspectives on the same design. The context always precedes the intent. The design needs to work in the context of a city,” says S. Sashikanth, who with his wife Rajani Sashikanth, today runs Space Scape, a successful architecture firm and Y Not Studios, the film production company that has churned out three of the most creative films in recent times — “Tamizh Padam”, “Va Quarter Cutting” and the recent hit “Kaadhalil Sothappuvathu Yeppadi” (“Love Failure” in Telugu).
Sashikanth is living proof that you could turn any failure into success if you have the ability to dream, and then get back into the game to give it another shot.
His tryst with entrepreneurship started with failure.
In 1999, he started out with a social network called StudentConcepts.com for students that combined loyalty programmes offered by corporates and gave incentives to students. It was a long-term project with no immediate returns. “The idea was to catch them young and then let them migrate to credit card programmes but we were ahead of our times,” he recalls.
“We re-launched Space Scape in 2002. We moved into a small 400 sq. ft. apartment opposite Hotel Park Sheraton. We spent about Rs. 80,000 and did it up as a penthouse studio apartment in 12 days and set-up office in the basement of the same building. That 400 sq. ft. space won us the Best Young Architect of the Year award from Indian Architects and Builders magazine. My house became my portfolio.”
In 2004, The British Council organised an architecture design competition for its renovation project since it wanted to appeal to a younger generation. “We won the competition. We were the frontrunners for modern design in Chennai 12 years ago when people were still following the Chettinad style of design. We went on to win a series of awards for that project.”
Having started the business with just five architects including his wife and an old mate from school, they grew to 25-30 architects in two cities within the next five years and did projects around the country. Today, Sashikanth's firm has an impressive portfolio. From Max Mueller Bhavan to corporate projects such as Cognizant, residential projects (such as Suriya's house, Udayanidhi Stalin's house), VGP House and Chettinad House.
“Honestly, we have not broken the threshold of what is possible with design because people are not willing to experiment. We are still catering to a small group of people. So it was getting boring for me and I wanted to see what else I could do with my time,” Sashi says.
“My interest in films was reignited when ‘Kuruvi' was being made. But I realised I was too old to be an assistant director and never good at taking instructions. So I spent a year understanding the business and the market, saw what was going wrong while trying to create a USP... I studied the Hollywood model and realised the areas you could bring a change in. Production was not a quantitative job but a qualitative one. Producers were always thought of people who put in the money. But in Hollywood, producers are creative, they set up projects.”
That was also when his friend from advertising C.S. Amudhan of Winds of Change (also his client from the architecture business) had decided to get into movies. “He pitched three genres: a road film, a period film and a spoof. That was my first call as a producer. To go after his spoof idea — ‘Tamizh Padam'.”
As a producer, Sashikanth has never ever sat through a narration. “It has to be in a written form. Unless it's on paper, I don't even want to know about it. I went through 80-90 scripts but couldn't find anything interesting after ‘Tamizh Padam'. ‘Va Quarter Cutting' was the only interesting thing I found.”
“I am an entrepreneur who is creating projects that are able to generate their own money. I just set up the project. We finished scripting, put up the business plan and sold it to Cloud Nine Movies even before the first day of shoot of ‘Tamizh Padam'.”
He attributes the failure of films to the business model followed. “No big film made today is profitable. Every number you hear is a lie. There are maybe three or four movies in a year that actually make money for everyone in the food chain. There are just too many middle-men in the business who offer absolutely no value addition except escalate cost by selling it to someone else. The more the middlemen, the more the film needs to make. The closer the producer is to the audience, the much better the money. That's why we decided to do ‘Kaadhalil Sothappuvathu Yeppadi' (KSY) as a bilingual and distributed it ourselves.”
And some day, Sashikanth's failure to success story would make a movie by itself.


If you've just finished schooling, and you're ready to buy your first scrubs, take steps to protect your investment. You'll be wearing your scrubs on a daily basis, which means they could wear out if they're not handled properly. That's why it's important that you provide proper care for them. One way to do that is to make sure that you wash them the right way, from day one. Here are three steps that will help you extend the life of your new scrubs.
Lock in the Colors
When it comes to protecting your new scrubs, the first thing you want to do is lock in the colors. Constant washing and drying can cause the colors to fade quite quickly. One way to lock in the colors is to pre-treat your scrubs as soon as you get them. Luckily, there's an easy way to get those colors locked in. Once they are, you won't need to worry about fading. First, fill the sink with cold water and add about a half cup of vinegar. Second, place your new scrubs in the water and allow them to soak for about 15 minutes. Third, use your hands to wash the vinegar solution through the fibers. Finally, rinse your scrubs and allow them to air dry.
Don't Mix Your Scrubs
Now that you have your scrubs, you'll want to take steps to keep them separated from the rest of your laundry. If you planned to toss your scrubs in the laundry with the rest of the colors, you'll want to change your plan. For the best care of your scrubs, you shouldn't wash them with the rest of your laundry. That's because you'll need to make sure that your scrubs are clean and sanitary each time you wash them. To avoid mixing your laundry, be sure to provide a separate laundry basket for your scrubs.
Don't Stop at One Wash
If you've never washed scrubs before, you might not know the proper process. For ordinary clothing, you can send through one wash cycle. But, that's not the case with your scrubs. Instead, you'll want to send your scrubs through two separate wash cycles. First, spray stain remover on any stains you can see. Second, turn your scrubs inside out and place them in the washing machine. Third, send your scrubs through a complete wash cycle in cold water. Finally, send your clothes through a second wash cycle in hot water. Once you've sent your scrubs through two complete wash cycles, you'll want to dry them on the highest dryer setting. This will remove any germs and bacteria that are hiding in your scrubs.

Nunavik elders eager to be immunized
“There was never any doubt in my mind that I would get the vaccination”
Nunavik elders are quickly filling up appointments to be immunized, as the region administers its first batch of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine this week.
The Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services distributed its first shipment of 1,000 vaccines to all 14 communities on Jan. 16, where they are destined for elders’ homes, health-care workers and Nunavimmiut 70 years of age and older.
Nunavik health officials initially said the region wasn’t in a rush to get its immunization campaign started. Now that it’s underway, the region’s most vulnerable population is eager to get their shots — and it might be experience prompting that response.
Johnny May, 75, received his vaccination Jan. 18 in Kuujjuaq, in a makeshift clinic outside the Tulattavik Health Centre.
“I’m not a lover of needles, but I went there, and I rolled up my sleeve,” May said.
“I follow the news pretty closely and so on, and I was more than 100 per cent ready,” he said. “There was never any doubt in my mind that I would get the vaccination.”
May said he’s heard a lot of skepticism from community members who are wary of the vaccine, largely from a younger generation of Nunavimmiut.
“Elders seem to be more inclined to want to be immunized,” he said.
Allen Gordon said health care workers contacted Nunavimmiut over the age of 70 last week to invite them to come in to be vaccinated. He took his mother, Christina Gordon, to be vaccinated on Jan. 19.
At 94, his mother has lived through a number of deadly outbreaks in Nunavik: measles, whooping cough and tuberculosis.
“When I first mentioned to her that there is the new vaccine, without hesitation, she said, ‘I want to be safe and take it,’” Gordon said.
The very first Nunavimmiut to receive the shot Jan. 17 was Kuujjuaq elder Johnny Watt, 94, a resident at Tusiajiak Elders Home.
In the 1950s, Watt helped deliver the measles vaccines to camps and settlements in Nunavik by dogsled team.
Nunavik’s health board has said that a second round of doses would be distributed in March or April.
Moderna recommends administering that second dose within 28 days of the first.
But due to scaled-back deliveries of vaccine to Canada, the Quebec government said last week that it could only commit to providing a second dose within 90 days.
The health board expects the next batch of vaccines to arrive in the region at the beginning of February. Nunavik’s second priority group to receive the vaccine includes all health-care workers and first responders, adults with chronic diseases and any Nunavimmiut who are older than 55.
By mid-February, the health board plans to open immunization clinics for the general population.

Dover Energy Commission to host electric vehicle show on Nov. 13
DOVER – Members of the Dover Energy Commission will host an electric vehicle show on Saint Thomas Street by the McConnell Center on Saturday, Nov. 13, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Come see the vehicles, speak with dealers and owners about their experiences, and hear from experts about what Dover and New Hampshire are doing to aid the transition to electric vehicles. Auto dealers, private owners, and the City of Dover will display electric vehicles (EV), plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles (HEV), and electric bikes (e-bikes) at the show.
Vehicles will range from an electric cargo bike to a Porsche Taycan. Saint Thomas Street from Locust Street to Atkinson Street (between the McConnell Center and the district court) will be turned into a walking mall for the event. The goal is to help inform the community of available EV, HEV and e-bike options and why they should consider owning one.
EV charging installers will be on hand to provide information about installing residential and/or commercial charging stations, including options powered by solar energy. Local and state officials will also discuss EV infrastructure.
In the morning, City of Dover's Resilience Coordinator Jackson Kaspari will share the City of Dover's plans for extending charging station infrastructure within Dover. In the afternoon, state Sen. David Watters will discuss EV bills he has filed this legislative session. Department of Environmental Services Administrator Rebecca Ohler will speak to the state's support of EVs and charging stations.
Organizers ask those driving to the event to park in the McConnell Center/Dover Public Library parking lot at 73 Locust St.
For more information, contact Dover Energy Commission Chair Bill Baber at 603-749-5969 or City of Dover Resilience Coordinator Jackson Kaspari at 603-516-6008.


Why are IRS Agents Training with AR 15s???
The Obama Administration calls the AR 15 an assault rifle and has been fighting tooth and nail to ban the use of these firearms by American citizens, yet is training government employees on how to use them?
The scandalous government agency that targets conservatives is now training with AR-15s.
Republican Jeff Duncan reportedly made the discovery at a Maryland Federal Law Enforcement Training Center on May 23 while touring that facility with Homeland Security officials.
Duncan was there asking questions and investigating the amount of aunition purchases by that agency.
Duncan says he saw about eight or nine shooters identified to him as IRS agents practicing at an indoor 100-yard range. He said he witnessed an instructor telling the agents to sling their weapons and load a 30 round magazine into the AR 15s they were using for training. (of course the government doesn’t believe American citizens need 30 round mags)
Duncan said he was concerned about what he saw.
“Why do IRS law enforcement agents need standoff capability that you would have with a long rifle or with a weapon similar to an AR-15? They’re generally investigating tax evasion, fraud and money laundering. We think of the IRS as an audit agency more than doing the type of law enforcement where they have to use an AR-15.”
Duncan said the IRS has the resources of the federal government, including the FBI, if they come into a situation where they feel like they need a SWAT team.
Last year FOX Nation warned that the IRS was hiring thousands of armed agents to enforce Obamacare.
Of course I know that IRS Agents are already going in to private businesses in this country, conducting para military getstapo style raids on non violent citizens under investigation for tax related issues. Please watch my latest documentary, “Rampant Injustice” which clearly documents the fact that this is occurring. Since the release of this documentary, we have been contacted by over 40 other business owners around the country who claim they have also been vicitims of these unconstitutional raids.
Read more on this story then watch my latest documentary where we clearly prove that this agency and the Justice Department are already conducting paramilitary, gestapo, armed raids on non violent business owners around this country who are under investigation for tax issues.
It happened to them… and YOU could be next.
