Warning: Do you think your grill brush is safe?


ABC US News | World News

Many people are grilling this summer and have no idea that when they clean their grill, they are putting their health on the line. Yes, its true, but most people don’t know it.

Those little wire brushes we all use, well, when a wire breaks loose and embeds into your food, you can very easily swallow it and not know it until hours later when you get intense pain! It seems to be happening more frequently than most of us realize. Search around on the web and see for yourself.

And I don’t think you have to have an “old” wire brush for a wire to break free, do you?

How comes this product has been removed from shelves?

Thanks, MA, for sharing this story with me.

Cosby Finally Exposed

It’s good to finally see Cosby exposed for the liar he is.  From day one when I heard these accusations, I called him out!

May this open the door for these women to sue Cosby civilly.

Cosby attorneys are saying that Cosby was just confused. I think everyone sees that is just an attempt to push this away again, but I don’t think its going to work.

11 Years of Blogging Brings Changes

blog-long

Did you know that I have been blogging for 11 years this October? It’s true! I’ve been sharing my thoughts on public cases and on people in the media for well over a decade!

My blog averages between 30,000 and 60,000 readers a month (depending on the season and news stories available to comment on).

While I have thoroughly enjoyed writing this blog, I have made a decision. I will no longer be evaluating people or cases in the media going forward. I am available for hire should you have a need for my services.

While many of you know that I travel the country training law enforcement from coast to coast, you may not know that I have also been quietly consulting on cases as well.  I have had a profound effect on people’s lives consulting on cases, and I want to do more of it.

I will, however, still keep the blog going from time-to-time. I will share articles of interest related to the topics of human behavior, deception, emotions, emotional intelligence, facial expressions, and personality identification at zero acquaintance.  You are welcome to submit articles by clicking on my Suggest A Topic link (to the right).

Thanks for sharing this journey with me and I hope you stick around!  You will get updates about my future plans here as well.  I am considering offering public classes in the future, and as I have said before, I am still considering writing a book–so check back here for the latest. While things are changing, it’s certainly not an end.

 

Are You at Risk for Identity Theft?

CV Identity Theft

MSNBC has an interesting article about what can put you at risk for identity theft.  I think the risk factors may surprise you!

Have you recently had a child, gotten divorced or bought a house?  You are at an increased risk for ID theft. 

If you experience any of these life events, you might want to monitor your credit more closely.

Anesthesiologist Caught and Exposed

This is really hard to listen to if you put yourself in the patient’s shoes who woke up after a colonoscopy and realized he had recorded the whole procedure. He didn’t mean to do so, but he did it by accident. And what he hears is shocking.

Dr. Tiffany M. Ingham is as unprofessional, cold and callous as they come and worst of all, she came up with a fake diagnosis to give the man even more hell he didn’t deserve when she said, “I’m going to mark ‘hemorrhoids’ even though we don’t see them and probably won’t.” Then she put the diagnosis in the man’s chart!  She flat out lied!

The victim was awarded $500,000 in a lawsuit, however, no discipline actions have been taken against Dr. Ingham, which I find really disheartening. This is a woman who gave the oath to do no harm, and she clearly violated that. She shows no respect for this patient whatsoever.

Sadly, most patients don’t know who they will get as an anesthesiologist when going under for a medical procedure or surgery. They typically don’t tell you who it will be, and you rarely see them.  Or if you do, it’s only at the very last minute when you can do nothing about it!

If you live in Florida, news reports say she is now living down by you and working there now. If you have to go under, I would certainly recommend that ask who your anesthesiologist is ahead of time so you can avoid this one. She clearly has serious issues that I don’t think will be resolved even by the exposure of this incident.
