Pat Novak for hire Sure, I'm Pat Novak for hire That's what the sign out in front of my office says Pat Novak for hire It's about the only way to make a living down on the waterfront in San Francisco Because around here a set of morals won't cause any more stir than Mother's Day in an orphanage Maybe that's not good, but that's the way it is And I wouldn't do any good to build a church down here because some guy had muscle in and start cutting the wine with Wood alcohol All you can do is try to make the books balanced and the easiest way to do that is keep one hand on your billfold and the other hand on somebody else's Well, I rent boats and do anything else that'll buy a warm winter Works out. All right, it saves the government a lot of money But if anything goes wrong your trouble comes hard And it doesn't do any good to sing the blues because down here you're just another guy in the chorus I Found that out Wednesday afternoon started to rain up by pier 19 And I knew there was a storm on the way the bay looked flat and smoothed over but you can say that for a lot of quarrels So I closed the office and walked down to the barber shop for a shave The barber laddered me up so I couldn't answer back and started to tell me how Dean at this and ought to handle things About five minutes later. Somebody walked into the shop and started tapping my foot We got tired of that and moved up to my chest you listen Hey stop pushing. That's my chest not a buzzer. Are you listening? Yeah, what's on your mind? I want to talk to you alone. He's a barber. He won't listen. Let's go along. All right. Let's go I'll be back in a minute. How do you like that? I got a 14. Of course do my way Tonight would it do something for me not for friendship. I give you two hundred dollars to follow a woman I've done it for less not this kind her name is Agnes Bolton You'll find her at seven o'clock tonight down at this bowling alley. Here's the car and dresses there How do I spot her read it off an ankle bracelet?  That's no help for 50 He sounds normal not Agnes. She couldn't pass for 90 She'll be playing in the last alley with a woman's team called the playmores. Yeah You'll follow her out of the bowling alley somewhere along the lines. You'll pick up a green leather bag After that, I need your help. It doesn't sound like love You'll go to the at Harbor get a board of both called 7th heaven I want you to have your boat ready and follow her into the bay. She'll leave that bag board some ship I want to know the name of it. How is that two hundred dollars worth? Yes, I'll wait for in your office contact me there and be careful. Is she that tough? No, but her friends are with a figure like that. How come she's got a their holdovers. I just be careful Yeah, well, it sounds easy at these prices. That depends on your luck. Mr. No bank It turns bad human cheating He stood at the door for a minute and his eyes swept the shop like a $10 broom and then he turned her on and walked off You couldn't tell anything from his face and his smile was as smooth as a pound of liver in a bucket of glycerin Well after I finished I went down up here 19 and I took the boat up to the yacht harbor I tied up near the 7th heaven and I started downtown of that bowling alley It was ladies night and I stood against the back rail and watched the women bowl Most of them were wearing slacks and if I ever get a few bucks ahead, I know the right business At least the demand is there About ten minutes after I got there Agnes Bolton showed up and I knew right away Max 100 overrated her She was at least 50 because you can't get that ugly without years of practice She was wearing a green woolen dress and her figure wasn't any worse than a bail of cotton Somebody's cut the wire on the fat hung down from her arms and there was so much of it You knew even her bones were plump and Max was right about her complexion It was red and scratchy as if she used a bag of sand for cold cream Now I must have stood there about 10 minutes watching him bowl when the other girl came up. I Didn't see her but I felt her as she brushed up against me from behind She leaned on the railing close to me and When she started to talk it was like grafting a hot iron under your spine. You look sad Mr. Novak Is it the view? What are you the repair squad? No, I want you to do me a favor. You do me one Slide over I bruise easy. Oh No, it's on your mind.  You're pretty but I got Max hunters dough. I'll help you spend it Don't let Agnes Bolton get to that boat.  I got a deal Suppose I tell Agnes Bolton you're gonna follow you tell her first without taking by here Now if you got something on your mind late on the line or relax I want her worse than Max hunter does when she gets that green bag I want you to bring her to me. I couldn't move her that far. You better read it Derek Please mr. Novak important to me. I want to talk to Agnes Bolton I can give you more money than Max hunter. You haven't got enough to cover lady You're talking about kidnapping. That's a federal wrap the answers. No, you're sure unless you want to change the offer I hope you make it darling. I may don't bet you two hundred dollars.  Novak, but I'll bet you have to roller the last couple of miles and unless you can prove It's an election bet the police will cause you trouble Watched her she turned her back and walked out of there She looked real good. She was wearing a tight jersey dress that gave you the idea She either thought the weather was warmer. She wasn't much on details I turned around and look for Agnes Bolton the game was waking up and she started into the dressing room A few minutes later she came out and started down Market Street. It was no trouble following her You could see her in the crowd and she rolled from side to side as she walked and when she bumped into anybody They looked back at her as if they'd been hitting the chest with a second jelly She crossed the street at Stockton went into a little coin shop She came out about five minutes later with a green leather bag She strapped it over her shoulder and she held on to her purse with the other hand a Powell Street she got on the cable car up near the front. I moved up there to be safe She looked heavy enough to tip a cable car uphill In that light she didn't look any better part of her hair had come undone and hung down on her face like a branches on a dead tree I Noticed her eyes for the first time They were small and so close together. They could have saved time and put them in one socket Well, she got off the cable car at Geary and walked into a hotel I followed her and watched her squeeze into a telephone booth on the other side of the lobby The way she fit a sardine ought to be happy She took some money out of her purse and started to dial a couple of people moved in front of her And I didn't get a look at her for about five minutes and when they moved away. She was still talking to somebody I Looked up about ten minutes later, and I knew something was wrong Her head was pressed against the phone. She'd run out of conversation I walked across the lobby and opened the door to get to the phone room. She fell out as old as she'd ever get There hey help me get over to the couch will you yes, sir Was she your wife? She was this is the way I'd water her purses spilled all over the floor sure is a mess. Yeah, she's some relative Huh, look, mr.  I was around when she tumbled out. That's all yeah What's she died from I don't know I just figured you might know what she died from no I don't it's a simple question to answer when you know what she died Come on all right stand back give her a she can't use any more copper. Huh? She quit about five minutes ago. Who are you? I'm not dead.  Yeah What bag the green bag over there on the floor? Well, it was over there a minute ago the same one the little guy had what little guy when it was talking to you We just walked out of here came the green bag Well, I got out on the street and a little manager just crossed Yuri He turned and looked back once and I saw him meld into the crowd and disappeared quick like the wake of a ship on a dark night When I came back to the lobby the copper was over the couch making noises in his throat as if he was trying to eat upon the cellophane The manager of the hotel was wringing his hands and making little steps like a ballet dancer with a hot foot The copper took my name put in a call to homicide and a few minutes later I got into that phone booth There was a number on the pad and I took it down. It was grazed on four two nine six one Well, I didn't prove much but Agnes Bolton was not to prove much tonight. I Began going through the phone book, but there was no max hunter listed and when I called the office nobody answered I Know there was as much chance of him showing up as a second piece of butter on a 50 cent lunch I ran down that grazed own number and found out it was an address out on post street I walked through the lobby and out the side door Some of the people were out of the dining room They looked mad because Agnes Bolton had died during the roast beef instead of later Well, I walked down Geary to the Union Square garage and gave the guy my ticket He started down the ramp for the car and I stood there waiting I must have looked lonely because Hellman from homicide shoved up near the cashier's cage and started over He made his way through the cars and as he squeezed by the last when he looked like a sea lion Hello Novak. We identified her and you had lots to work with Helman. Where are you going on on post street? I'll go with you. My name was Agnes Bolton. You read it somewhere She was a government agent. I got their money's worth corner says she died a quick poison. How quick five minutes You're working him too hard Helman. He's got a license. He says five minutes She was in that phone booth ten minutes. Nobody got to her. She looked dead to me Novak I don't believe you. Well, I'm hurt. I don't believe a thing. You say that's up to you I'm not starting a religion Helman. I watched her for ten minutes. Nobody got to her You better check on that little guy. Yeah, she was carrying a green bag a little guy walked out of their way He sounds hard to find you don't hey, mister. Is this your ticket? Yeah, it's a blue man You better come down to drive it up. Why I can't get to the wheel the guy on there won't move Huh, I don't blame him either when you're dead. You got a right to rest No one stood there a minute wiping his teeth with his tongue and it began to sound like somebody beating a bathtub with a piece of steak When he finished making noises, we walked down the ramp to the car What was the little guy who had taken the green bag? It was hunched over and was grabbing the wheel as if he'd just married it Helman lifted his head up and laid him across the seat the light was bad, but you could see a little of his face It was watering around his forehead and a damp hair was plastered down under his hat brim The perspiration had broken up and started to run down his forehead like tears and you got the ID cried out of his hairline instead of his eyes It didn't look surprised or pain. He just stared with a puzzled look as if he'd missed part of the conversation Helman stood there trying to wipe some egg off his coat and turning to look at the guy to make sure he didn't leave So what happened no bags so he had an automobile accident. I don't know is your passenger He bummed the right himself when I saw him. He was on his way with that green bag Where is it? He got talked out of it. You better check on a guy named Max Hunter Whose cousin is he? He gave me 200 bucks a tail Agnes Bolton. I got another offer too Yeah, a blonde biscuit and she said everything on the beat total stranger You sure met a lot of people you better meet a lot of them too. Helman because one of them got to Agnes Bolton How about junior here?  I don't know how he got it. Oh, maybe you left him here and forgot. No, he wouldn't slip my mind I haven't murdered anybody in the front seat, but it's lively though.  No back You're the only lead on Agnes Bolton.  You couldn't pin down I did butterfly Helman you better look up Max Hunter and check on a boat called the 7th heaven I will and I'll put a tail on you. No back follow you all over San Francisco. He'll go any place That's fine because I got a suggestion As soon as Helman left I took a cab out to that address on post street But it was a waste of time. I might as well been peddling tip sheets in a monastery It was a brown house on the corner and it was a big curved window that stuck out from the rest of the house Like a wart on the back of your neck A toothy old man answered the door and said he didn't know Agnes Bolton I was pretty sure he was on the level Just kept nodding his head and rubbing the wrinkles on his face There were enough of him there to bundle up and sell as a canal I left no downtown. He doesn't on the way. I went by the yacht armor and the 7th heaven had moved out into the stream Well, it was raining harder now The box looks shiny as if somebody had given him a coat of egg white But I had a couple of places to hit so I looked up Jocko Madigan He's a good guy who never learned that if you keep your foot on the bar rail for 20 years It'll be more good for your arches than it will for your brain. I finally found him in the hunt room with a Bellevue hotel Mr. Novak is something to take off the chill. No, I don't want to drink Jocko We've had enough to I refuse to shiver to death Patsy. I'd look terrible with a blue face Will you stop drinking Jocko? I hate whiskey Patsy, but I'm drinking tonight with a purpose I made a deal with Charlie the bartender to buy every eight drinks And I got him on the run by morning. I'll have him in bankruptcy court. Look Jocko. I'm in trouble I always know when I've had enough to drink Patsy when I tilt the glass up the rim rubs against the bridge of my nose It's a sort of safeguard so that when my nose begins to break out in blisters I know I've had enough for the night. Would you listen?   You haven't a chance Patsy You'll never be any good. Are you all through Jocko? Yes, if you're going to be touchy Hellman wants me on a murder rap. Yes, some tubby woman died in a hotel lobby Sounds like his mother. She was a government agent. I followed her in there Patsy You've got to start trusting the government. I was paid the follower, but she ate some poison somewhere along the line That's the trouble with food. I got hired by a guy named Max Hunter look him up and resign That's the best way out of this thing. I don't know where to find him And I think that Max Hunter's a phony. Oh, you got to help me. Yeah, I gave me this card His prints must be on it check it down at headquarters. Will you find out if he's got a record and then tagged by my place Yes, I better have a drink first.  Will you hurry up Jocko? All you do is drink. That's all I have left Patsy I'm too young to die and too old to do almost anything else. Yeah, sure It's true Patsy when you get to be my age most of the quiet places are fattening and most of the active ones would kill me Good night lover. I left Jocko I dropped by the Chronicle Mord to look up Max Hunter. There was nothing under Hunter I looked through every max from bear back to beard of him and I couldn't find a thing That was close to 11 when I rode down to the office for a final check It wasn't raining hard anymore It was a nice easy drizzle. We could hear it playing against the sheds along pier 19 Sounded quiet almost private like the sound a woman makes when she runs her fingernail up and down her stocking Don your nerves at first and then you began to enjoy it The minute I got to the door, I knew something was wrong There wasn't any reason but I got the feeling the same way you know sometimes you're gonna get the busy signal on the phone I could see her lying there on the floor before I turn on the light You took one look at her and you knew she was a sort of girl whose name ought to be pearl or a myrtle Somebody'd sapped her and she was lying with one hand stretched out and the other under her hair It wasn't really hair. It looked more like a pelt or a raccoon just after a shampoo Was fuzzed up on the sides and on top she'd combed it back so tight. It was about to go under the scalp She began to move a little when I've been over she started to mumble What do you want the red if you're gonna stay long here put your head up? Mr. Novak, it's too late to change. Where's that miss Bolton? Where'd she go? Mr. Novak? I don't know where she went. Was she a good girl? Something's happened to her. Don't worry. It won't happen again Who sent you here max hunter? Yeah? Please help me I'm Francine Kane. I came to find out about Agnes Bolton.  What happened? You wouldn't know her. I would if she's a tall blonde on the make for that green bag. Who is she? Joan Hayward. I can find her at the Geary Theater. She an actress? Not exactly. Yeah. Her stray talent, Mr. Novak, a dimensional rather than dramatic Your smart you'll stay away from her. Don't tell him anymore Fran. He's paid up. Hello, Hunter. You oversold me. Give me back the 200. I'm gonna give you lots for your money Don't include Agnes Bolton. I don't know anything about her. Is that a lie? Might be. There's a green bag. Joan Hayward has it. Is that a lie? The little guy didn't think so. She left him dead in my car Let's go Fran. No, you're in a hurry, Max. You're not. I hope you like your office, Novak. Huh? Because this is where you're gonna spend the night Don't let him feel bad lady. It must have been his turn After he was crumpled up against the desk and she was staring down at him as if she forgot to water the plants When I wrote by the Geary Theater, it was dark. So I looked up Joan Hayward's address When I got out to her place, I knew I'd made a mistake The landlady clutched her bathrobe like a bar of solid gold and told me Joan Hayward left the house ten minutes ago There was a cabbie at the corner and he said he dropped her at the gold bar club a few minutes before I Got down there about one o'clock and Helman was wandering around Stopping every few feet as if he expected to hear something The bar was dark except for a light over on one side and Over near the jukebox Joan Hayward was stretched out as dead as a deer on offender At first Helman didn't pay any attention when I walked in. I stood there for a while and looked at Joan Hayward She still looked pretty except in the dim light her skin looked coarse and reminded you of a piece of felt that was almost worn out But the rest was alright and Helman came over for another look What did you forget Novak? My black tie. How'd it happen? The bar was closed. Where were you? Crawling out from under your thumb. Yeah, we're gonna keep that corner. It was quick poison. Yeah, we found a needle in her coin purse She didn't know about it ran into trouble when she started to call up. You better find this guy max hunter That's gonna be hard. Yeah, there is no max hunter. Does she believe that your sugar friend came in with a card We went over the fingerprints that belonged to Jackie Ren. He's wanted for espionage for more than that now Helman Maybe where have you been? Look Helman stop needling me. I won't go in the block for her Don't you like her? I got an alibi. You can't break. I've been all over town.  He reported in at 1130. You got the wrong idea Novak You don't rate over time Helman could stick me for everything but Dan McGrew My only out was to find Jackie Ren, but you can't ring that many doorbells in one night. I Went through the book, but there was no Jackie Ren or max hunter listed I went home to get some sleep and if they turned Gabriel loose tonight. I was all right with me Jackal called up about nine and said there was still no tracer ran Well, some mornings you can't trust yourself with a razor So I got dressed and went down to a Greeks on Geary Street for breakfast The murder was all over page one, but there were so many pictures of Helman you couldn't tell who was dead I Was about halfway through breakfast when I noticed the story down in the corner a girl named Tony Pritchard Had been found dead out in the marina The story said everybody liked her the police didn't have a lead and they couldn't find a reason Seem kind of funny, but when I got to the last paragraph I began to wonder It said she was employed by the musitone company and worked the late shift as a switchboard operator. I Wasn't sure but you can't pass the dice when you only got a buck left So I jumped down to see Frank Lupo He said the musitone company owned the jukebox in the gold bar club that it worked like all the rest People use a little microphone in front of the box. They call into a main switchboard for songs I grabbed Jaco, and we got up to the musitone company the guy in charge said sure They recorded some of the talk just to check on the girls and sometimes the girls did it just for laughs But we started through the recordings and about half hour later Jaco rolled a seven No, Patsy. They're all old ones. I tried this. Yeah, I'll put it down. I'll handle the needle I That's enough Jaco Let's get up the can one. Why don't we think it over a while put the record down and come on there at the Kenwood You heard the shots. That's what I'm worried about if that fellows any kind of a mechanic. He's had time to reload. I Got down to headquarters and told Helman why that girl Tony Pritchard lost her vote We rode out to the Kenwood and Helman started through the register There was no Jackie ran listed and we didn't have any better luck with the girl I briefed the desk clerk and he said he thought there were two people in the hotel who looked like that But he didn't know their names All we could do was wait for him to show so Helman and I walked down the street and slid into the car Must have been about three o'clock and for the next four hours We sat in there about seven o'clock it began to rain harder It wasn't easy to see the front of the Kenwood I got out to wipe the windshield and that was a mistake because just then the door of the hotel swung open The girl came out first and then Jackie ran. He saw me right away and the two of them jumped over to the curb and got into a car Riding with Helmans just about as safe as eating an arsenic sandwich When we got to the corner, they turned east and started down bush It wasn't easy to stay behind him the rain was hitting a windshield and it was like trying to see through a mint julep When we got past Jones Helman began to close in it must have scared Ren too much because it's stocked And he swung the car around with Helman a few feet behind and it was a dead end both ways Can't get out now open the door Over here You can't it's too steep stay on this side Can you see him? No He's around I think you got a chance now Ren come on out Everybody in back and you see the girl she's with him over to one side Oh, you're confused Helman.  She was lying down at the bottom in the rain Her head was over to one side and you knew with a little push She did roll around as easy as a ball bearing on a plate Her face was clean, but the rain was beginning to wash the dirt down and when I left she wasn't pretty anymore Jackie Ren outlasted her by a few hours and Helman used them all Agnes Bolton was carrying government papers bound for China the four people were split into teams Jackie Ren and Francine were trying to outbid Joan Hayward and the little guy The way Jackie had it figured he'd find out what ship they were going out on and pick it up from there Joan Hayward knew he was dealing with me. So she followed me after I left that barber shop She saw me park the car in that garage and tailed me down to the bowling alley She planted the needle in Agnes Bolton's purse and the little guy tagged along behind waiting for something to happen Just to be on the safe side in case anything went wrong Joan doubled by the office and gave Francine a headache When the little guy got the green bag he took it to Joan It was too good to split so she killed him and left him in my car Well, then she made a mistake When Jackie called her up and asked her to come down to the gold bar club. She bought this story Would have worked out fine for Jackie if he hadn't talked in front of that microphone But a nosy girl heard it and tried to put the screws on him Helman asked only one question About that conversation between Jackie and the girl If I would a person say anything that private in front of a microphone, I Don't know But I told him about a couple of others Jaco and I heard He didn't say anything but I'll bet he gets a hold of those records and plays them every night before he goes to sleep


Okay, before we start we'll play a game called name the animal Where does this eyeball come from? Mike you'll know No, it's related. It's a it's a cephalopod, but it is It's a cuttlefish Not edible It lacks Cornia has a Christian lens and the nerve fiber actually leaves the red nerve from the back but Not relevant to this discussion But interesting Yeah, I actually took this picture in Borneo before he ran away They're pretty temperamental animals so my case is a pretty Difficult Manifestation of a common problem This is an adolescent a 17 year old Asian Girl who was referred for iraitous. She complained of a three-year history of floaters loss of vision of both eyes and She was recently admitted to uni for Suicidal ideation. She did not read the Spain flashes. She did have some floaters She has a history of depression anorexia Anodonia suicidal ideation auditory hallucination so major depressive disorder with Psychotic feature features Otherwise family history and social history unremarkable. She's a first-generation immigrant She's on the motor geeking and prototyping Except for the above her review systems was negative On presentation. She was 2400 and 2300 the normal IRB one plus cell in the anterior chamber two plus victory cell one plus victory's haze In fear vitreous hemorrhage in the right eye with multiple areas of very phlebitis model discadema and cystoid macular Dima and Kind of a similar picture in the left eye Massive cystoid macular Dima in both eyes explaining her loss of vision. Have you look at the angiogram that this diffuse? leakage from the from the arterials vanuels and capillaries with a Lot of leakage from the nerve as well seen in the late stage here with end of this dark darkening of the Watershed areas. This is what we call a kind of a foreign like appearance and leakage was described by Janet Davis So this is an Intermediate uveitis is it inflammatory or infectious? It's important to rule that out and there's a very strong component of retinal vasculitis is retinal vasculitis the primary problem it seems more like Intermediate uveitis is a primary problem checked her for Systemic issues DB was negative syphilis testing was negative ace and lysozyme HIV viral hepatitis looked for some of the labs that may be associated with Retinal vasculitis found them to be negative and so our final diagnosis was intermediate uveitis of The paris planitis variety with significant systroid macular edema Vascular leakage new vascularization and Victorious hemorrhage and we really don't know how long this had been going for because she'd been admitted she'd been suicidal She'd had symptoms for three or four years So in consultation with the patient psychiatrist, which is important when you start patients on steroids we started her on prednisone and Concurrently because this was likely a chronic issue Started her on steroids bearing immune immunomodulation with Michael Fenley at one gram twice daily unfortunately on steroids she Did report improvement in her symptoms, but she did Start to have greater suicidal ideation aggression towards a peers family and Had some auditory hallucinations again So steroids were quickly withdrawn down to 20 milligrams and Intervitual steroids were injected into both eyes with incomplete resolution of CME in both eyes At that time no steroid associated oculohypertension was noted the dose of celsep was increased to 1500 twice a day, which is your maximum dose Three months on celsep and after intervitual steroids you can see she still has a lot of macular edema with maybe some improvement in leakage, but Let me pick on a resident again Dina there you are What do you see this different about this and you're going specifically in the right eye exactly so that's actually a new vascularization and In intermediate uveitis you can have new vascularization for two reasons number one because there's a lot of peripheral non perfusion which is common and secondly because Vegaf is an acute phase Reagent and can in fact be found in elevated levels when there's a lot of information Therefore you can end up with new vascularization of the disc or elsewhere And this can often be your source of vitreous hemorrhage in this case. There was some vitreous hemorrhage in fearly and both That is not shown in the pictures So therefore laser was performed through areas of retinal non perfusion in the right eye We started at a limium ab humera with improvement in CME But not complete resolution three months after starting humera she 40 milligrams every two weeks two months after intravitual steroid in both eyes This is the first time in her entire treatment course that the CME mostly went away her vision is now 2100 likely limited by Kind of these areas of Ellipsoid zone loss in both eyes as a result of chronic cystoid molecular demon Still has areas of New vascularization such slightly more consolidated and three months later She comes in with dense viscous hemorrhage in the right eye more than the left vision has now decreased to 20 400 in the left and counting fingers at three feet in the right so you can see hints of My killer Dima In both eyes quite quite quite a lot of my killer Dima, but the view is limited by the vitreous hemorrhage So we finally bit the bullet did a partial of a dractomy with augmentation of the peripheral laser and Implanted a flucid alone a satanide Implant red cert in the right eye and performed a similar procedure in the left eye her vision stabilized to 2060 in both eyes resolute version of CME and Vision is limited by my killer atrophy So summary this is an 18 now 18 year old actually nauseous 20, but Then 17 18 year old girl with severe bilateral intermediate UVA is complicated by massive CME vitreous hemorrhage She was unable to tolerate steroid Suicidal ideation so Vitreous intermediate UVA is can present with varying degrees of severity's manifestations can include vitreous cell in his Retinal vasculitis is a pretty common feature CME is the most common cause of vision loss of Irreversible vision loss in these patients cataract glaucoma and optic nerve edema retinal non perfusion with neovascularization in the retinal periphery and I Sorry, retinal leave at non-properate non perfusion can cause you know on the optic nerve or elsewhere Vitreous hemorrhage in six to twenty eight percent as well as epiretinal membrane Late findings do include psychotic membranes tractional or regmetogenous retinal detachment hypotony and tithes Marisa I'll and myself have found that there are kind of two main Presentations of intermediate UVA just they could be that indolent quiet kind, which you may not have to treat But in children especially sometimes you are faced with these really really bad intermediate UVA just cases with bad Traction at the ciliary body psychotic membranes and they present early with hypotony and they present early with these vitreous membranes those require more severe a more Aggressive treatment as Al alluded to and as Chris will talk about as well there We do you utilize a step ladder approach to treatment You can start with steroids. They may be oral injectable subdenons or intra vitrile immunomodulatory therapy You should not be shy about starting this especially in chronic disease chronic disease that requires chronic treatment and Anti metabolized T cell inhibitors biologics and cytotoxics may all be used although cytotoxics have Kind of gone out of favor with the advent of rituximab and other such biologics Surgical intervention may be utilized sparingly in patients with intermediate uveitis Retrectomy has been shown to in some cases even bring about some degree of remission Be it drug-free or otherwise Retrectomy in conjunction with cryotherapy to the snowbank or to the paris plana inferiorly as well as laser may also Be shown to bring about some degree of remission in some cases Steroid implants have been used and should be used sparingly for intermediate uveitis. They have in the must study Which was a national I Institute funded randomized clinical trial comparing systemic steroid with immunosuppressive treatment with reticent implant at Three years showed that the visual acuity was not significantly different in the two groups the Redisert versus immunomodulation group However, this is not a benign treatment Cataract surgery occurs in in almost a hundred percent of patients to be honest 61% end up with elevated IOP the three-year data shows elevated IOP higher than 70% and Over 35% required incisional glaucoma surgery not everybody can be treated with systemic steroids in a meta-analysis 935 patients The rate of psychiatric complaints on steroids anything from anxiety agitation to psychosis is 27.6% with 5.7% being severe and these are in group patients with hallucinations and and suicidal ideation There's no particular age group predilection or dose dependence for these side effects with steroids. There's no significant association with pre-existing Mental illness. I find that hard to fathom, but this is what this paper showed Minimal but statistically significant increased risk in women on steroids of severe steroid associated psychiatric side effects therapeutic vitrectomy can be utilized with Good efficacy in patients with intermediate UVA just indications to include media opacity vitreous hemorrhage Inflammatory control the removal of antigenic material from within the eye can Can decrease the amount of inflammation in the eye? It can be performed in conjunction with cataract surgery and we have a case series so far of 42 patients But many more patients are being added to that database by Chris Conraddy as we speak hopefully and and really there is There seems to be good evidence to support the fact that this is a safe and effective way To manage intermediate UVA just in conjunction with immunomodulatory therapy and with good patient selection Vitrectomy can be utilized for the removal of epiretinal membranes, which do develop in patients with IU Chronic CME can be treated with vitrectomy and internal limiting membrane feeling hypotony To remove cyclitic membranes either endoscopically or otherwise wrecked retinal detachments do occur Especially with peripheral traction in patients with intermediate UVA just and lastly the implantation of sustained release steroids Redisert which is the most commonly used and now Injectable version your geek which is a non-biodegradable All right be happy to answer any questions. Yes, so I remember that said he came out and Associated that there wasn't associated with underlying conditions, but you know My experience having raised five teenagers is that the majority of teenagers are borderline crazy at some point during that experience Maybe I'll all a hundred percent including my own experience as a teenager and then also having been on You know high Systemic doses personally with reactive asthma at two points in my life that stuff can drive almost anybody crazy Oh, absolutely, even if you're not overtly you say I think a hundred percent of people There are a few I hear will tell you that that I mean there are lots of things in there that just absolutely Can drive you bonkers. So you add the two together I can't help but imagine that systemic steroids and teenagers is is fraught with a lot of potential Psychiatric it certainly can be and you should be ready to withdraw steroids I had a patient in in San Francisco where I was steroids who was ready to jump off a bridge Because he felt he could fly I think steroids should be used with caution Al I was just gonna say that you know, I mean it would use effectively I think that you know fairly safely in fact, we have a study of pediatric patients in which we used steroids and immunomodulatory Stewards as bridging therapy immunomodulatory therapy had zero side effects We're able to get every one of those patients almost every one of those patients 90% of them off steroids So I mean, you know, it's it's very useful and important in selected patients to you know, really quality Is a big thing there to use it as short a period of time getting them off relatively rapidly. I think so So, you know, it's we arbitrarily talking about it for about three month Starting at high-dose and then tapering fairly rapidly in general if you start with one milligram a kilogram So in an adult typically 60 then you're at risk for a lot of psychiatric complaints And if ask them across with the hip osteoporosis Steroid myopathy, etc. But once you drop below 30 those risks start to go down in general with with chronic disease, you never treat steroid monotherapy is a not going to be effective and B is going to be fraught with a lot of Side effects that you don't want to deal with So really early institution of steroids bearing immunomodulatory therapy is key We tell patients the only thing that works today is steroids. So we start the immunomodulatory therapy It's at least, you know, six weeks eight weeks The seven-year results of the must trial You know showed that actually systemic therapy with the immunomodulation and steroids were actually Significantly more efficacious this with, you know, six-line improvement delta visual theory. That's brought with problems itself You know, so it's it really the bottom line is that therapy is to be individualized


We are fighting to go towards the future, but it's a global economy and the opportunities for a person from a village is the same as, you know, an opportunity someone gets if he's born in, say, a town in the United States. Hey, folks. I'm Adam B. Levine, and this is Speaking of Bitcoin. Today, we've got a special episode for you, so we'll get right into it. As always, I'm joined by the other host of the show, Stephanie Murphy. Hi. And Andreas M. Antonopoulos. Hello. Jonathan Mohan is out today. On this episode of Speaking of Bitcoin, we're joined by Vignesh Sunuresan, a past guest of the show, and the real-life personality behind MetaPERS, and the MetaCoven, let's call it Avatar. For those of you who haven't been following closely, MetaPERS is the fund earlier this month won the Christie's Auction, the Beeple first 5,000 piece. So he's got the dual distinction of outbidding tron's Justin Sun and also of having spent the third largest amount of money ever on a piece of art from a living artist. MetaCoven, thank you very much for joining us today, and welcome to the show. Thank you for having me. One of the projects that you started before the Christie's Auction, before you gained some of the notoriety that you have today, was the B20 Project. And I'm going to try to summarize it. I did not know about it until after all of this happened, but in doing some research about you. So as far as I can tell, the B20 Project was a fractionalization or a tokenization of a collection of NFTs, a collection of virtual world real estate and architecture in the form of these museums that you're talking about. And then also, I believe that there was like a multimedia element to it. And so you created this token, you did a token sale around it. What's the thinking here? I can understand the thinking like from your side in terms of you don't have to give up ownership of these things in order to get some liquidity out of them. But what was the purpose of that project and what do you hope to accomplish with it? I understand that even with the mainstream media, there is a lot of this narrative that's been built around this B20 Project. And it's almost like the narrative has been taken in its own direction because of the perception, right? Because we want to understand everything in a simple way. Okay, so taking a step back, then I'd become Metacoan and started collecting all these pieces of art.  That means that, you know, I'm buying up some piece of art and that artist is making some money here. But that's where it stops because this is all digital and no one is seeing it. It's in my wallet and at best it's vain, right? Like I spend money and not being able to display them or even me able to enjoy these pieces of art. That's why a lot of people don't get digital art also because, you know, we don't know how to enjoy it, right? And so when this Beeple auction came closer, what we were thinking is, so this is me and Tuberdu, right? So Tuberdu had been in the metaverse for a while now. He had become his own character also by just writing, right? Like no one knew about him. He just started writing and people accepted him and he became a journalist in the metaverse. And I was observing him and I was so impressed by how much he could connect with the artist. So what we did was we joined hands and I said, okay, I'm investing my money into buying up NFTs and I might not be the best person to collect art because my taste is very commercial at best. So I asked him whether he could do something. So he started collecting art and then after a couple of months when this Beeple auction is going to happen, we were sitting together and thinking what we should do here because I also feel like the collector is part of the piece because it's all a story, right? Like how this game and what's happening now and what's going to happen is all going to get sucked into this NFT and the NFT is all that it's the story. So with Beeple coming out, what I thought was it'd be an interesting time to capture the attention of the small crowd that's just within the metaverse by surprising them totally. So what we did was instead of buying one piece of art, Beeple had 20 pieces and one summary piece of all this 20, we tried to buy all the 20, right? And Beeple was already quite famous so it was not easy. So we created our own system where we created 10 accounts and bought all these pieces without people noticing and by the 20th piece when the auction was going on, people started noticing, right? Like that one guy was buying it and it became a story, right? Like on how we acquired it. So after that becoming news because that was kind of the most amount anyone had spent on NFTs till that date, again, like as you said, it's a way to signal, right? Like that we are more serious about this. We took everything together and from the day of the sale, in 45 days, 27 people came together. I took a role as a producer so where I could bring together people and Tuberdour was the executive producer of this whole project where I thought about this as a movie, right? So we take these pieces, Beeple is the star and I'm going to bring in other artists who are the other artists, the person who builds the museum himself as an artist. He designed the museum and he had a team of seven people build these museums within 40 days and I know like we can think about is it just 3D model?  So when the museum was being built, if you go in CryptoAxel, you could see someone standing there and putting these pixel blocks together, right? And it was amazing and it took around 440 manhours just to build the museum. We worked on the design. We also hired people who could write content about it. So I was thinking if it's a movie, there has to be promotions. There has to be ways of a launch. There has to be a way for people to enjoy. But then the other part which really blew my mind was the fact that we were all on top of Crypto and there is the Ethereum smart contract which removes the need for an accountant, a lawyer and I can directly use all these NFTs as part of an Ethereum smart contract and without anyone having to trust me, they can own part of the museum. So instead of I owning the museum and I accruing all the value, the first initial thought was everyone who worked on this project, the 27 people and the staff whose people here had to get a part of this piece because they spent so much energy. We are actually making a documentary which is going to be aired over time of how people felt during this production happening. So all these 27 people individually received some B20s because how else can I share the ownership of this? And so that was the starting point and the idea grew to a point where I was thinking maybe it will be interesting if the visitors of the museum, the first real monument in the metaverse which is this commercial could also have the upside to whatever the story becomes without having to trust me. So we then took 10% of it and I didn't sell it for 10x. Like I didn't make money out of this. I'm not even broken even from B20s by the way. So I spent $2.5 million and I sold $1.4 million worth of tokens at a rate which was a 25 to 30% premium. That's because I just put in the cost of building it and that's it. So I've not recovered and I've not sold any B20s after that because that was not the point. We just let it be and I didn't talk about it like B20s price or something because again that was not the point because when we started this project, crypto or NFTs were still behind the screens and after this project when this B20 started coming out and a lot of people got to visit these museums. Around 2500 people participated during the launch. We had a party called Metapolosa where 2500 people visited these museums along with us. So three virtual worlds, Crypto Voxels, Decentral and Somnium. We had a tour of 20-30 minutes and Blau who's an audio artist was playing a DJ set during that time. It was an event like one of the best events during COVID. So all this put together is what B20 is. And yeah, I've not sold any of my B20s after the event. So I'm just planning to keep it because it's art history for me. So all this speculation of I doing something, it's all very short-sighted at best. So that's the idea of B20. Meta Kovan, you speak so poetically and passionately about this idea of art and intangible value, which is so important. But you said something that really, really touched the nerve, which was the idea that you own digital assets because you cannot own physical assets because of where you come from. And this relates to the conversation we had many months ago about the potential ban in India. And it's a topic that we've been discussing for a while on this show. And we did a series of shows, in fact, on the demonetization in 2018 and on the continuous threats, the ban by the central bank on crypto banking that took the entire sector down for two years and the more recent attempts to ban it. For all of the passion and clear thoughts that you bring on this topic, anytime I hear from the Indian government, it seems like they simply don't get it. And such a knee-jerk reaction. Do you think there's going to be a ban this time? Why is that tone so jarring? I don't think there'll be a ban. It's a very wishful and hopeful feeling I have because there has been some time, right? Like all we can do is buy more and more time while there is more people within India or Indians who can really be the other side of the conversation, right? Like, of the ban. Because, like, eight years ago, when I discovered Bitcoin and thanks to you, Andreas, I started eating the apple, I guess, where, you know, like, your passion is what really got me into this industry. And after that, I went back to India in 2013, end of 2013, and I wanted to do a meetup where I wanted to talk to people about, you know, Bitcoin. Like, long ago. And when I started at ATM Company, I wanted to put an ATM machine in India, 2014, in fact. But all the time, like, my advice is in India, right? Like, my friends, everyone used to say, no, don't do that, don't do that, right? Why? It was because, like, it's a political understanding again, but a single person is always a minority, right?  So that's the hard part here, because as we get started with crypto, obviously, there's going to be huge opposition, not just to the concept, but also after there's money involved, a lot of people could be just envious about this technology, right? Of a lot of people having made money without them, right? So what we should understand here, that's why I've been using this word of the rise of the decentralized class. So this is a kind of a class struggle. So if you look at it from that perspective, I think we should accept this struggle instead of wanting it to just go away, right? Like wanting them to understand or people to understand, be like, why don't you let me live? It's my right, but you know, that's not going to happen, definitely. So it's going to be a hard struggle. And India is probably the first place where this struggle is going to be played out. So right now, as you see, from the last time we spoke, I think it was 2019, I spoke on this podcast, from then to now, because of the number of people who have increased, who have crypto now, it's becoming more difficult for the government to consider because they have to figure out a plan to take Bitcoin away from people, right? So even if there's a million people with Bitcoin, it's hard because how do you make sure that they don't have it? And they're also understanding with all these people from around the world, like even Elon Musk signaling about Bitcoin would mean something to India, right? Where India is thinking, why will I go against the billionaire, the world's richest person, right? So those kind of things are definitely now going on, but it's not going to be easy. It's going to be hard where this is going to be a fight between the decentralized class and the centralized class. I couldn't agree with you more. I visited India a few times and I've spoken about Bitcoin in India. And most people don't know this because I don't make this public generally, but from early on in my journey in Bitcoin, I advised Indian startups and companies in the space that were doing Bitcoin work because I felt that India is probably one of the most important locations in the world for Bitcoin. And whenever anybody asked me, where is Bitcoin important in the world and which part of the world is important for Bitcoin? I always said, well, it's not North America. It's India, it's Southeast Asia and it's South America.  And I'm so hurt on behalf of my Indian friends that there is always this uphill battle to find ways to fight against the government and the regulators, to give opportunities for an industry that has done so many interesting things in India. I hope that your optimism is well-placed because I still think India is the most important place. Yeah, definitely. One good part about India is that, at least we had English, right? Where I could access the internet. So I'm also for cultural decentralization, which I think is a mood for centralizing markets again, that's a different topic, but I still felt like English was one of the important reasons why I could discover Bitcoin itself, right? And that's true for a lot of people now, also living in India. But we should understand the risk here of what's happening to India because what we saw as India in the last, say, few decades is not the same India we are getting. And there is more instinct to look towards China and point out that China had this phenomenal economical development and it took away so many people out of poverty. So we should also do something similar, right? So that narrative has been really flowing into India a lot and there is a lot of protectionist sentiments even in terms of going back to a country where it might even not want English, right? And just adopt one language as its national language and just want its citizens to not know anything without the government actually having looked into it first, right? So I'm not saying it's going to happen now, but that is the tendency. So if you understand that tendency and that world where they've completely censored that all the information that can get to the citizens in that world, Bitcoin will never exist, right? So because Bitcoin travels as information to people. So that's what we are fighting against. The idea of going back to a glorious past, a time in history when we had glory, right? And we are fighting to go towards the future where it's a global economy and the opportunities for a person from a village is the same as an opportunity when someone gets, if he's born in a town in the United States and that world is possible, but the political situation might not want that to happen because if you think about this bad side of politics, they also want to make sure who can get richer, right? Like which subset of their population should be richer so that they can keep supporting this government, right? So they choose who should be the rich person and Bitcoin just totally bypasses that process and lets you accumulate wealth without going through your own government and that's really something that does not go well with the government. So that's the endpoint where India is trying to go, but in the meanwhile, because there is opposition now to Bitcoin being banned and it's getting stronger from people around the world, even say people who have left India and made a name for themselves in other fields, they've also been speaking about it and maybe my story also, if it can positively impact the citizen, right? If it can say, tell one person that maybe he can also do the same and that's why I bring up NFTs a lot because how do people get started? Because you need to have some money to get started and NFTs is a way where maybe you can sell one NFT and you now have 500 dollars of crypto, right? And so those kind of ideas, if it reaches people more and more, it might tell people in a grassroots way to talk to their local representatives and talk to their government to not ban this technology. Well, folks, that's a wrap on another episode of Speaking of Bitcoin. This is the end of this episode but not the end of our discussion with Metacoban. Join us again next week as we continue the conversation with one of the most important voices in token collectibles today. Today's episode featured Metacoban, Andreas M. Antonopoulos, Stephanie Murphy and myself, Adam Beatleveen. This episode featured music by Jared Rubens with editing by Jonas.

Hi, I'm David Cantor with the Law Offices of David Michael Cantor and today I'm going to talk about possession of drug paraphernalia in Arizona. According to Arizona Revised Statute 13-3415, possession of drug paraphernalia occurs when a person intentionally possesses drug paraphernalia to consume, manufacture, grow, harvest or package marijuana or other types of drugs. Now normally this is pipes, bongs, baggies, pill bottles, needles, things of that nature. Punishment, if you have no prior felonies, this is a Class 6 felony, which you can get anywhere from probation up to two years in prison. Now probation means the judge can say, I'm going to give you probation, remain law abiding, don't use any drugs, report to your probation officer. But as a condition of probation, I'm also going to give you jail, anywhere from zero days in jail up to one year in jail. Now there are certain defenses, one of them is the Medical Marijuana Card. Go to our site dmcantor.com because it's very detailed and we'll explain exactly how that works with the Medical Marijuana Card because obviously you need something to carry your legal marijuana in. Other defenses are lack of knowledge, meaning you didn't know the marijuana was in a car or in a backpack or in a house, illegal search, lack of consent to the search, coerced consent to a search or bad search warrant. Those are all good defenses. Our lack of Miranda rights being read, coerced statements, you ask for a lawyer and they won't give you one, that's denial of right to counsel. Fingerprint analysis is flawed because we're going to look for prints on the paraphernalia. Sloppy police reporting, these are all good defenses. Now you're going to hear about what's called Prop 200 and task. Task is a diversion dismissal class where you can be placed on probation, do classes, take UAs and eventually the case will be dismissed. Prop 200, what this refers to is on a first offense they can't give you prison or jail. However they can give you probation and if you violate they'll take you right into custody, hold you as non-bondable even if you have a million dollars in your pocket and they'll hold you for four to six weeks then you get released and then if you violate again they keep bouncing you back and forth so you really want to fight these charges. Get them down to misdemeanors and get rid of them all together. So if you are a loved one, we're charged with possession of drug paraphernalia in Arizona, give us a call. We know what we're doing. We have multiple certified criminal specialists and we'd love to help you out with a free initial consultation. Take care.

Copper's up 14.5 cents, folks. 4.21. 35. Notes and bonds. You get the 10-year note. Up 3 ticks. Trading 109.26 to 30. Up 2 at 117.25. And Kingdala. Kingdala is giving it up once again. Down 556 ticks. Trading 104.2.60. Euro. 108. Yen. 151. British Prime 126 to 1. US Dollar. Our phone number is<PHONE_NUMBER>. Give us a call, folks. One note's going on in your world. And the world of the S&P's, let's take a look at them. What do you have? Well, bottom line, folks, what we have out here is that you have a market that continues to want higher price. What we had, what happened yesterday, is that when we went down, the S&P had around the same amount of volume. But the NASDAQ composite and the NDX100 had a contraction of volume. That's why you see in the bounce. What we got out here today is that you got the aspect that the dollar start giving it up. That puts you inside the S&P. Right now the spy is up a buck. And now the spy is, this is light volume on the spy. That being said, man, we're going to the highs again. The NDX, you're going to see the difference now. The 3Qs, the 3Qs have volume out here compared to the spy. So the Qs right now have already done 30 million. You're up a buck 45. And it's going for the highs once again, man. That's the bottom line. I'm going to shift right now to the dollar because the dollar, you know, we've been up, gold's been up tremendously, and the dollar's been up. Now what you're going to see out here is that the dollar's giving it up. It went, what the dollar did, now check this out, man. The dollar went up and it did it yesterday. It tested the high of February 13th yesterday. Now we don't have volume on the dollar, so it's not like you've got a failure on price and volume. You've got a failure on price. That being said, and then what we have out here today is that because you have wide price spread, what you have is that Oops. Let me just get this. You're going to see the dollar basically is coming down with conviction and it's just, it hasn't broken, it hasn't broken the counter trend up transition yet. I thought it actually did, but it didn't because what happens is that, yeah, it hasn't done it yet. It's right at the line. So that's telling me what we're going to see out here tomorrow is that you're going to see another acceleration down on the dollar, up in the market. Is that the way this is laid out right now? This is laying right on the trend line. It'll blow through that trend line. You know, you get the wide price spread out here today. And then if we get over and we go take a look at the gold contract, what you're going to see is just, you know, this is the C to D of an ABC structure on the way up. And you're already at 2317, 2550 is the A to B equals C to D. Now that's only the one to one, A to B equals C to D. You get 236,000 contracts. That's huge contract volume inside the gold market. Now check this out. Silver's going to start catching up. We go over to the silver market. We take a look at silver and what you're going to see out here, silver's up at buck 21, excuse me, buck 24. And you know, you get, well, we have a silver now. You get two big price days. We're going to get another one. They come in threes, folks. So silver's done 129,000 contracts. There's great contract volume. Now we're going to go to copper, man. H, G, A. This is phenomenal, man. Copper, you know, was really the one that's been given it away. If you get the gold report, you know that I've been into this when it first was 405, then I was like, man, this thing wants to go. And sure enough, the bottom line is that you're up 14 cents, which is just a monster of movement. And let's see how this is shaking out. So, so we got an ABC up. Okay, so let's look at this for a second. So we got, you get 414. Oh, this is a beauty, man. Okay, 31. I see. Okay. That's interesting. So 31, 431, 426. Okay, the A to B equals C to D and copper is 426. Now, H, G, 1. Let's do this and bring this all the way back so we can, I get this on a, I'm going to put this on a monthly on a generic commodity shot to see where we're going. Yes, I knew that I knew there was a 424. Is it 427? It must be 427. I know it's 435. So 435, we're on the way to 435 right now. That's the bottom line. And the highs that are up there is 505. So this thing's on the movement in a monster way too. So let's go. Let me just look at this SCCO for a second. This is the largest copper company out there. Yep. Hitting another new high. TGB, Tseco. Tseco's got a huge amount of copper. Smallest stock. But the bottom line is that when you get copper that high, forget it. It's at 9 pennies. This is a 242. Let me see the next swing point on this baby. Oh, this is going to get cool. Okay. Let me bring this back further because you're coming up, I just put this on a 10-year. I'm going to put it on a 20-year. Because we're coming up to the top of the consolidation. Oh, this is nice. You're coming up to the top of the consolidation and we break this top of the consolidation. You are going to see action here, man. Is that a high volume high? It's not bad. What is that? Price is at $7. Take a look at this, Tseco. TGB folks. You're going to see. See this last month? That's what you love to see. See that volume spike? That's what you want to see when you're coming into a swing point. Huge expansion of volume. We're going to get the same thing. This thing's going to go bust this 262.

Dow Industries right now, down to $1.10, you get the Nasdaq up $17, S&Ps are up $4.5. Let's go take a look at these S&Ps because when we were just on that break, man, there's no doubt this thing came down fast and furious. So let's see what kind of volume we got on this baby. So we take a look at the E-minis. Right now we're down to $250. You traded the $52.58 and the high was $52.80. Okay, so let's see. So you got a nice, look at that volume expansion, man. So they took it all the way down. You want to see something cool here, folks. Okay, if you're watching Tiger TV, you can see how these things, you know, the last time watched this. Okay, one second, let me put this right here so you can see this. That's the last time we've volume right there. Now what has happened is this. You can see if you're watching Tiger TV, where I put this parallel line, was that the last time with volume on the way up. So we were at highs, getting no volume whatsoever. And you can see when we came down, you came down with heavier volume on that volume bar. Now when that happens, guess what? You're going to go after this low, man, because the volume was way too much. So if you're going to basically be trading around this thing in the next, you know, half hour or something, I would let this thing get down, retest that low, because that's what they'd normally do, and then we'd go from there. Let's go to the NQs. Take a look at the NQs. NQ, it's going to be the same type of setup. I just want to see. The NQs have been stronger, so I want to see if we actually got below that level. Okay, so look at this. First, let me find the level. That's the level right there. Yeah, I did. Okay, one second. There we go. Set this up. Is that it? No, this is it. Oh, no, this is it here. I see. Okay. Okay, so you still got 31,000 contracts versus 28. Okay, interesting. So the NQs don't have higher volume. They get 28. Let me go check the S&Ps again just to make sure that it wasn't ballparking it. Because what does happen with charts, particularly intraday charts, you can look at these, and many times they look like they have either gone over or under, and you're really going to check them. Okay, so bring this back. Okay, so we're dealing with 80,000 contracts. Yeah, 80,400 contracts. 81,159. Right. So what you have here is that you do have, excuse me folks, the S&Ps have higher volume than the NASDAQ. And you can see, you know, this is kind of intriguing because this is left over from yesterday. You can see that the NDX, the composite is stronger than the S&Ps. So we'll see where the rest of this is going to shake up. But that's telling me that the S&Ps will retest their low where the NDX100 doesn't have to retest its low. So pretty well. Let's get into a couple of these gold and silver stocks. So, MAG, we got, when these silver start running, folks, if I get it. So if we take a look at MagSilva, now this is, this was one of the strongest stocks in the whole complex, folks, okay? And what had happened is that because they're only mine, we own the stock, okay? You want to take a look at the stock, okay? I'm going to tell you the bad stirrer, the good, the bad, the ugly on this thing, okay?  So the low for the year is $8, the high is $14, okay? When you take a look at their numbers, you're going to see this is a company that has always made money, okay? This is like, if you're watching Tiger TV, just look at this thing, man. I mean, they just, they just make money, okay? Right from the get-go, this is a silver mine, but the, so they're looking to take in $426 million this year, bring $0.50 to the bottom line, okay? So that's the good, the bad, the ugly is that they only have one mine, that mine happens to be in Mexico. So what has happened is that the law that they put into Mexico about a year and a half ago is a law that, you know, when you only have one mine and they're in Mexico, it could be closed down like really quick. So the market itself, okay, has taken this equity from the 24-doll level all the way down to the 8-doll level, when in fact they're still making money, but you can see that there's a risk value that's inside of this. That's the bottom line, that's the first pot. The second pot, though, about where it's at. We bought this this week because I kept looking at it and saying to myself, you know what, man, this thing wants to run up until $17. You can see that it broke, it broke its downtrend. It broke it with conviction. You had wide-price, red-accelerated volume, bottom line. That's my take where it's going. We'll see from there. But check it out. If you haven't checked out the Gold Report yet, this is the last week. We're doing the special. It's 35% off, and that price is good forever, folks, okay? So you can check it out. And this run, I've been in these runs before. The hardest thing in these runs is to know where to take your money, when to take your money, and if to take your money. The if is the monster deal, folks, okay? And if you're in this run, the way that I suggest that you look at it is stay with the ABC structures. Because what happens is this, is that ABC is in general, okay? Well, hey, let me put this up for a second so you can really, you can see this. Because the consolidation was so long inside this gold market, I'm going to bring this back. So you can see how this is, whoops, there we go. Come on, okay. So what you're going to see is you're going to see the A to B is a straight line move. It's about as straight as you can get. And the A to B, so check this out. The A to B, we went from, this goes back to 2018. You went from $1,160 straight up to $2,043, okay? So we went up basically, you know, $950, boom, straight line move. Then what did you do? Then the market drove everyone crazy, man. Because the bottom line is that you went sideways from June of 2020. Four years, man. You went sideways for four years. This run started in October at a low, a low of $1809. Well, $2550, a 1 to 1 ABC structure is, you know, we're going to see that. We very well may see a 1 to 1.382 run, which is really going to blow some people's minds. We always see a 1 to 1.50. Stay right there, folks. Come right back.

Distributor, Four Side Fund Services, LLC. Welcome back folks. Down 87 Nas XM4, S&Ps are down three and a half. And let's get over into the XAU, the HUI. Actually, I'm going to do the SLV first because the SLV is playing catch up here. So the SLV is the ETF for Silvo. They bring this back. Let's see where we stand here. I'm going to put this on a monthly. Okay, so this is going to get cool. Okay, let's watch this now. Okay, so this is the same type of consolidation that Gold was doing. And so now we're going to make a run for the $27.98 level. Three bucks from here. Let me bring this back a little bit more. Yeah, this is going to be quite a move, man. So the highest that Silvo went in the 2011 run I think was $47. Let me see what that says. Yeah, it was $48.35. And you can see what had happened here. Now this move, yeah, it was a 2011 move. What the 2011 move was, folks, okay? And we had the Gold report then and we scored beyond belief. Why do we score? Because we sold all the stocks, folks, okay? If you remember the 2011 move, what it was all about then, and I remember this so well because I was basically saying, okay, man, if you bought Gold anywhere close to where we got in at the beginning, I got in at $282, the low was $252. We ran it and then the key here, now check this out, this is what goes so crazy, man, because this was one of the best relationships and, you know, it's years that you have to wait for these, but this relationship was, and I'm sure there's plenty of tigers that remember this, because I said this on CNBC, I said this on Bloomberg, I said it everywhere, basically sell all your Gold and buy Real Estate. Because what had happened, and that's what's so crazy about it, man, like it was, I mean, I don't think any of us thought Real Estate would go that low, okay, but it did, and what had happened is that it's like, okay, you buy 100 ounces of Gold at, let's say, 300, so you've got 30,000 in there, right?  So you cash it out at 190,000, you take the 190,000, houses that were 300,000 and only 100,000, okay, so the bottom line is you buy two houses, and if we fast forwarded to that one, the bottom line is that you'd probably have about a million bucks. That was the trade, that is the trade, you know? Now the question is, is that okay, now we get those Gold run going again, and what's important to understand about Gold companies, okay, if you remember, well, I just had Fred Erneston, okay, all these Gold companies, folks, okay, these Gold companies are making money at the 1900-dollar level. Never mind the 2300-dollar level, or the 25, no matter where we're going. So what you're going to see, you're going to see a monster expansion of price because every dollar now that Gold is up is going right to the bottom line. And, you know, what you did see is that you had first movers and Harmony was one of the first movers out there, okay? So picture with Harmony, now it's expensive for them to get Gold out of the ground, okay, but they're still like a 2000 deal, well, they're at 1800 or something, okay? That being said, though, the difference is that they take millions of ounces out of the ground, millions per year, okay? So you're just talking about, well, here, if you want to see the difference in money, you're just, now this would be the difference in mostly just the price of Gold going up. If you go back five years ago, 29.2 billion, that's Rand dollars, okay? This year, 59.4 billion Rand dollars. So you're talking about a double, a double, folks, a double, okay? So you're going to see, it's going to get interesting. What I mean by interesting, I don't even like that word interesting. It's going to get fun, let's put it that way. Because the run seems like you've gone so far already, but yet it may be just starting. If you listen to Tim Wood, I was listening to Tim and Jacob yesterday, and when Wood said he thinks that these gold equities would go up 90% from where we are. Yeah, listen, he's seen it happen in 2000. We got the run from 2000 to 2011. And what happens in bull markets, folks, we're all geniuses. That's the bottom line. And so it's the market that makes it happen, but, you know, now what this is also saying, this is a trip. Okay, so in the 70s, right? Now I was young enough in the 70s that I understood what was going on, because I still had a restaurant. I had a food truck, I had one of the first food trucks anywhere. I got it off the Air Force, actually, Obizac. Ock was I.E. Roman Kitchen, it was a huge steel truck. Anyway, what happened there was this, is that in the supermarkets, you remember Nixon actually put price controls. And he had it because what was going on, man, you'd go get a half gallon of milk. And every single day, every single price went up in the supermarkets. Now fast forward, you put the price controls on. Bottom line, interest rates, 14.5%, 15%. So Paul Volcker got a hand on it, okay? That being said, though, even when you get a hand on it, it lags in a big way. Specifically, it just doesn't go away. And so what I remember so explicitly the same day, I'm going to go back to real estate again, because I've been in real estate forever, since 1970. So what happened is that the acceleration on real estate went exponential. What's happening right now, my take is the exact same thing. That what you have is that you have a situation, stay right there, we'll come right back.

This program is brought to you by Vista Gold, traded on the NYSE American and TSX under the symbol VGZ. Welcome back, folks. I doubt. Now, there's now 42 Nasdaqs, up 34 S&Ps are up three and a half. And we're talking about the aspect of inflation lagging. And we're going to go... And this is where these commodities run, folks, okay? And it's running along the same lines. That's the bottom line of the 70s. Because the bottom line is that, yeah, the way that the day is coming in, you know, we'll see whether we get three ray cuts or two ray cuts, but we're on the other side of the cycle. That's the bottom line. Now, Powell and the Fed are paranoid. There's no two ways about that. But they probably have reason to be paranoid, because let's take a look right now at the oil market, okay? What you're going to see... My take is that copper actually gave us the heads up. That copper start moving and start moving really fast. And highly volatile. Copper is as volatile as a silver market. And you saw it, gold starting to pick up. Gold took over. What's happening now is that you get silver trying to catch up. Copper is definitely leading, man, okay? Now, I'm going to do CL1. I'm going to put this oil market up. Because the kicker here is going to be, if the dollar gives it up. If the dollar gives it up, man, I'm telling you. You'll hear nothing but commodities. And we haven't had that in the years, you know? And in the last 30 years, you've only had this a couple times. Maybe three times, meaning commodity runs. Because commodity runs is something else, man. Because the reason that there's something else is that they're traded in the future market so dramatically. That's why. Okay, so let's see, 95 bucks, man, huh? 81's the low, yeah? So this is getting interesting, man. I mean, it looks to me, this is going to be crazy, man, that oil wants to go to 95 bucks. Because what you have here is the next swing point to 95 bucks. There's really nothing stopping oil until 90 dollars. You know? So that's saying that this run is on, man. And that is going to have to do with the dollar. Because the dollar has been strong. The dollar gives up a little. And we haven't even seen the aspect of huge amounts of folks going in the market simultaneously yet. You know? And when you get that, you're going to get, like, some of these gold stocks, well, some of the silver stocks are doing. Look at this. So the silver stocks today, because most of the silver companies, folks, all do millions of ounces of silver. So when you start, you know, going a million times $2, guess what? You're making money hand over fist. Now you can see this here. This is first majestic. I mean, it's up a dollar five. Today it's only a $7 stock. Okay? I put this back. And you're going to see this is just coming off the lows. I mean, this has been a disaster. But you can see the bottom line is that right now, just this equity alone, I'm not going to bring it to the very top. Yes, see, some of these numbers are insane. Okay, it's trading $7.50. It just wants to go to $18.93. And then, this is even better. There's a swing high, high volume swing high at $24. So you can see that the run itself, let me see if this works. No, that one doesn't work. See, because what I mean doesn't work. If you're watching Tiger TV, you need, what you're doing in Trim Lines, you got to hit at least three bars. But the bottom line is that this thing here is saying flat out $18. And let's see what numbers they come up with. So they have, come on, next time they come up with numbers is May 3rd. They're going to do $489 million. Look at that. And they're saying they're not going to make money, though. They're going to lose $0.22. Well, $0.02. They're not going to, this is going to get different. They're not going to be losing $0.02. Well, we'll wait until they come up with a new estimate, because that's what they're going to end up doing. A lot of these companies are going to come up with new estimates where the price of the actual commodity, and then they'll multiply at times, the analysts are going to multiply at times the amount that they take out of the ground. So it's going to be a wild one, man. Let's go take a look at some of the higher volume equities and see what we have out here today. Intel's down $350. They're having problems with their foundries. They're getting video up $4. No big deal there. Paramount Global, they're going to... Paramount Global and... What's the other one? Hold on one second. These guys just signed a 30-day deal about Mergent, I think. Paramount on Sundance, I think, right? Yeah, Paramount and Sundance strike a tentative deal for Paramount Steak. Paramount discussing exclusive acquisition talks with Sundance. Paramount's got a lot of good programs on, man. I've been watching a lot of them, actually. Okay, so what else we got? Micron, tech, that's technology. That's at four bucks, four and a half dollars. Amazon's at about $56. Look at Dell, holy cow. I'm going to pull up Dell. Dell's at $10, man. Michael Dell, I mean, you talk about just under the radar, right? I mean, he's a guy that, no doubt, started, you know, the PC business, was very good at it, brought his company private, pulled it back out and got it public again. Low-key, and this stock has just been on a tear, man. I mean, look at this. And six months has gone from 68 to 128th. And they... Let's see what they're doing. Unreal. $93 billion. Unreal. $93 billion is only 52 weeks in the year. Can you imagine that? They bring $7 to the bottom line. That is one big number. And that's running at a... See, it's a decent PE, too, man. This is 17 PE. They paid $17 for a dollar of earnings, man. So that is pretty intense. There's no doubt about that, man. That is one good run. Let's go over to Amazon and see what Amazon's doing, because what Amazon has done the last couple of days, they're cutting expenses big time, man. There's new CEO. So Amazon, they got rid of their cashless account... Well, they had a new technology that's totally cashless. They had cameras all over the tops of the stores. They had cameras in your carts. And what you used to be able to do is just walk through the store, grab whatever you want, walk out your credit card, gets charged, bottom line, they can that whole deal.  Well, you can see it's gonna save them a lot of money. Smart, though.  Stay right there, folks. Come right back. Dow. Dow is down 13. That's like up 38. That's a piece of up seven. We'll come right back. This is where opportunity lies.

Welcome back, folks. Don't forget about the Gold Report. This is the last week. You want 35% off? Check it out. On Monday, everyone got an email with the actual copy of this week's Gold Report is in there if you want to check it out. Market wise out here, bottom line might take we still want higher prices. In this particular case, it keeps shifting from why we want higher prices, but the longer-term trend is up and people continue to buy. There's no sellers. That's the bottom line. That's how this shakes out. One day, all of a sudden, we had the notes and bonds. They went down on price up on yield dramatically. It hit the bond market, but yet it only hit the equity market for a day. The dollar overtook it today. You can see we're not up a lot, but the bottom line, we're not down. And that's what I expect you're going to continue to see because if this dollar gives it up, we'll see an expansion inside this S&P, inside the NASDAQ, and of course inside the commodities. The commodity run is on. But let me just... I'm curious what Coco is doing because Coco reached $10,000 a contract. Okay, one second, let's see. Coco, Coco, Coco, Coco. Coco? Whoops. Oops, wrong one. There we go, okay. Yeah, okay, so we're at $9,500 now. Today's the first day it's down. Imagine that? Pretty heavy. Gotta love the chocolate, man.  Health, happiness and prosperity. Have a great night, folks. Have a safe night. Give us a timey tomorrow morning. Kick us off at 9 a.m., great show, folks. Hi, folks.


Hi, we have with us Emmanuel Lupitaru, the CCO of Chail India. He's competed six months with the agency now. Tell me Emmanuel, why did you decide to take a U-turn after setting out on the entrepreneurial path with ITSA in 2012? And why did you pick Chail? I think maybe U-turn is not exactly the correct word. Maybe it's another turn of course. But U-turn is going back to what I was doing and I'll probably explain what I'm doing at Chail and then it's not exactly U-turn, it's going back to the agency, the kind of agency that I had worked in. It's a very different kind of agency. So it's not an U-turn. But yes, entrepreneurship was a lot of fun, but I was missing out on the big action, the big scale. So I thought why not give it another shot. And why did you pick Chail? I wanted to, when I see the industry, how it is shaping up, and I saw a lot of shift towards the client side. I see the Christian Porter-Bugitski director moved to Facebook and that's happening a lot in many industries. So the clients are attracting the creative talent and then setting up in housing agencies also including Pepsi, even though it happened in another kind of a story though. So the shift was happening toward the client side and that is one thing I wanted to think of. I think of joining a client and then I wanted to explore more in the tech space and I wanted something close to Gurgaon. And here was an agency which was closely working with Samsung, a tech brand and in Gurgaon. So I think that met all my, what I was looking for, what I was looking for. And there's something very interesting you've written on your LinkedIn profile, your bio. It says you first survive the copywriters who write in Queens English, then you survive those who come from the cow belt. But now is your time. Why would you say that? Nothing, I enjoyed all the three phases. But I think this time it is not about any language. It is about technology because the consumers are not interested in exactly any particular kind of language. It is about ideas which connect with them and they're in different kind of platforms and digital. And then as creative people, how do we connect with them? And language is important but not as much as it was before. So I feel now because I was, as I mentioned about English and Hindi and all, I don't, obviously I write, which I've written and won awards on even Long Copy and all. But I like pure, pure idea. It is not, it is obviously expressed in languages. I just like ideas. So I think now is the time where ideas will be even more important than just language. And what would you say are the challenges that the new age CCOs face today? I think talent more than ever before because I think that the young generation has so many options these days. So to attract them and then to retain them and keep their attention also is not easy because there are many options going on. So much happening in their head. Okay. So this year at Boa Fes probably it was chair's best ever show. Was that the plan?  Was that the plan? No, I don't think I should take all the credit for that. The fantastic team will be working on it. But yes, I think I feel agencies are also a brand. I think it's good to make a statement and then make it in style. Usually you have a very unique five-year plan.  So you don't stay in an organization for more than five years at a stretch. So will Chell be any different and what is the idea behind it? Are you referring to the idea that I did in my exit? Yes. Kind of a story. That was just a lot of fun when I did that. And I think coming to Chell, I think five years is a long period. And industry, let's see how things span out and then five years is a lot to look forward to. And then let's see how things shape up. And one last question. Who amongst the new crop of CCOs is the person that you think is to watch out for? I think there's a lot of good talent outside and a lot of young people are coming up. And I wish them all the best. And I think Azaz, you learned from when in Bangalore's Mutu tour. Malan. Malan. And I think he's done some good work and he's young and I wish him all the best. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you.
