Special sendoff for Thor the German shepherd
Friday, February 22, 2013
LEE — He was obedient, smart, loyal and friendly. He was a companion, a friend and a part of the family.
She shared a story from the Melansons about Thor saving Orman's life when he slipped on ice outside one day.
Thor lay with Orman to keep him warm and helped him stand back up.
"Thor was your daily companion," she said to Orman. "With you always at home and out in the community."
She said Thor was "majestic," and although he was a great dog and very loving, he did love chasing the UPS man down the driveway.
Maden read two poems during the service, one which tugged at Janice's heartstrings, reminding her of Thor.
"The dogs who've shared our lives in subtle ways, they let us know their spirit still survives," she read from the poem, "The Dogs Who've Shared our Lives."
"Old habits still make us think we hear a barking at the door, or steps back when we drop a tasty morsel on the floor. Our feet still go around the place the food dish used to be, and sometimes, coming home at night, we miss them terribly."
Janice said Thor was truly Orman's dog and best friend, but that the two of them held a special bond with him and both helped Thor up the driveway for the very last time before he passed away.
"We kept saying, 'Come on, Thor, come on, let's go. You can do this," Janice said. "Let's take one last walk together."
Janice and Orman thanked Stephen Purdy at the end of the service for helping them through their difficult time.

Elana's Tale
8. An Ancient Lament
Each night her dreams were visited again by the half-orc girl. She saw her at many ages, in many guises. By morning the dreams were vague and clouded, but always the sense of reassurance and hope was strong, and the image of those eyes.
It was with a sense of inevitability that two weeks later Elana felt the familiar nausea of morning sickness. Again she was examined and declared to be pregnant. Elana greeted the news that her breeding time was over with tears and joy. She knew, with a conviction that defied all logical argument, that she would never have to face that horror again.
Weeks passed, then months. The time drew near for Roswyn to give birth. Elana could see that, much as she tried to conceal it, the burden of this pregnancy weighed heavily on her. Elana knew that so many pregnancies, one right after another, without the natural break nursing a child provided, was wearing on a woman's body. Roswyn seemed pale, and gaunt except for the roundness of her belly.
Roswyn's labor began when her water suddenly broke one morning. The orcs quickly dragged her away, and Elana was left alone to worry. Her worry increased each of the three days she was gone. Then finally Roswyn was thrown back into the cell, exhausted, weak, and feverish. Elana sat by her pallet, holding her hand and bathing her forehead with cool water, but there was little she could do as Roswyn's body battled with the fever. Elana thought surely she would die, but the will to live, amazingly, was still strong inside her. She fought to keep taking one breath after another, until at last the fever broke. After that, her recovery was sure, although agonizingly slow.
Elana's own body ripened. Surprisingly, this time she felt no revulsion at all. The fact this child had been begotten upon her by an orc seemed somehow inconsequential, and she felt free to marvel at the miracle of developing life. She refused to consider that this child, too, would be taken away. Somehow she knew that was not its fate.
Late one night, a new dream gripped Elana. The orc-girl's eyes blazed as she roughly shook Elana's shoulders. "Wake up, Mother, wake up! It's time!" Suddenly she was grabbed from behind by orc-hands, seized and carried away, struggling and crying out, "Mama, help me, please, Mama!" Orcs threw a sack over Elana's head and dragged her off. She gasped for breath and fought against the smothering folds. Her thrashing woke her. Still feeling smothered, she panted desperately, but couldn't seem to get enough air. She sat up on her pallet, then glimpsed a faint ray of moonlight coming from the ventilation shaft.
She went over to the opening, and with great effort hoisted herself up. She crept up the slanted shaft, barely able to squeeze her growing bulk though. Another week and she'd be too big. She reached the metal grate and lay, her faced pressed up against it, finally able to breathe the cool damp night air.
She looked out. The rocks and scrub were illuminated by silvery light, and by twisting her head around to an uncomfortable angle, she was able to glimpse a tiny patch of sky, where the full moon shone serene and peaceful, high above the cares of the world. Elana thought it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. The sadness of her life, of a world where living creatures could do such things to others, where everything must fade in the end to despair and death, overwhelmed her, and she wept. Then, moved by a strange impulse, she lifted her voice in song, an ancient lament of her people:
Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing?
Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing?
They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;
The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.
(Tolkien, TTT, Chapter 6)
Elana's voice broke in a sob, and the echoes of the last notes died away into silence. Then the silence was broken was broken by a voice calling out.
"Who's there? Speak! Where are you?"

After a week of rain in Central Alabama Black Creek roars over Noccalula Falls in Gadsden. The roaring water drops 90 feet off a slight horseshoe shaped ledge sending a mist high into the air. The pedestrian bridge over Black Creek above the falls has been closed until the water subsides. The roar of the water at the falls can be herd from the road in front of the park. Several inches of rain has fallen over the past week causing rivers and streams to overflow their banks. A flood watch is in effect for many Central Alabama counties until 6 a.m. Thursday. More heavy rain is expected through Thursday with a slight chance of snow flurries. (Joe firstname.lastname@example.com).

Web users fight for kidnapped 5-year-old Aishah Sabra
Web users campaign to reunite a mother with her little girl, abducted by the father. Online pranksters play a rather sick joke on Justin Bieber fans. And a short video documents one man's transition from male to female.
Web users fight for kidnapped 5-year-old Aishah Sabra
For months now, thousands of web users from all over the world have been fighting to reunite Aishah Sabra with her mother, Leila, who lives in the UK. The little girl, who is just five and a half years old was abducted by her Egyptian father in September 2011, and taken back to Egypt. She hasn't seen her mother since. Web users have been busy campaigning, hoping to resolve this terrible situation and bring Aishah back home.
A petition has been started on Change.org urging the British authorities to convince the Egyptian government to intervene as soon as possible. The document comes with a moving video in which Aishas's mother says she won and still has full custody of her daughter in the Egyptian courts and all she wants is for the Egyptian authorities to enforce this court order.
And Leila has also received some valuable support from the hackers of Anonymous. The "hactivist" group has launched a full on website for the missing girl. It's called "opfreeaishah" and includes information about the little girl and her mother, along with posters like these ones, posters web users can share online or print out to raise public awareness and publicize the story.
So there has been a strong wave of support on the web, and Aishah's mother Leila is also making great use of the online tools available. She has set up two websites on which she relates her ordeal and months of anguish. She also posts messages for her daughter, saying she hasn't forgotten her, is searching for her and all she wants is to see her again!
Now trending on social networks
#CutforBieber started trending on Twitter at the beginning of the week, causing widespread outrage. Web users have been passing themselves off as fans of the young Canadian singer and using the hashtag to urge his admirers to self-harm to convince Justin Bieber to stop smoking marijuana after images of him apparently smoking a joint emerged online. The trend began when users of the 4chan forum launched a campaign in very poor taste and in mock protest of his alleged drug use. It has unfortunately had a certain impact, and dozens of Bieber fans have posted photos of their bleeding arms and wrists online…
Obama souvenir shop launched by inaugural team
T-shirts, coffee mugs, cufflinks, badges bearing a picture of Bo, the Obama family's dog… in the run up to the Presidential swearing in ceremony, due to take place in Washington on January 21st, an official website has been launched selling goods celebrating Barack Obama's inauguration for a second term in office. All the articles proudly bear the "made in USA" label and prices range from two and a half dollars for this plastic ruler to 7 500 dollars for a commemorative medallion set.
Video of the day
The person who made this video documented her three-year transition from male to female to share the experience with web users. In less than two minutes we get to see, in stages, how taking female hormones changes the body and facial features. An amazing transformation you can watch in its entirety on all good video sharing platforms.

Great Bike! Great Price!
By Catracho Lincoln
from Lincoln NE
About Me Commuter
Comments about Nashbar Carbon Road Bike:
Ok, so this is my first carbon road bike, this is actually my first bike with gears. I have been riding a single speed to commute 24 miles a day round trip and that can get old fast. That is when I saw this bike on discount and decided to go for it! I wish I had not waited this long to get this bike! It handles great, customer service made me feel comfortable about sizing. I purchased the extra small...I am 5'5 with a 29 inseam. At first I felt the handlebar was really low and took it to my local bike shop, they turn the stem upside and I adjusted the seat and that worked like a charm! I am not very pro efficient putting and it only took me about 45 minutes to install the seat, pedals and handlebar...the bike was ready to be used after that and a few minor adjustments. The bike arrived within 3 days. Instructions did not help much, I got dizzy just looking at them. I went with my instincts and luckily i got it right. I have ridden the bike for 300 miles and it is awesome. If you are looking into a carbon bike for a low price...dont think about it, go ahead and buy this one! If you can, make sure you have a torque wrench when you are installing it. It rides well and the gears shift super smooth. Super fast and very happy with my purchase!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best Carbon Road Bike for your dollar
By Timmy
from Irvine, CA
About Me Avid Cyclist
As this was my first road bike purchase, I spent numerous months researching on the internet to find out what components I should be investing my money in. Simply put, when buying this on a 20% off sale, there is no better deal out there for a new carbon road bike. Ive had it for a year and put just over 2000 miles on it. Im 6ft, 200lbs, and a medium fit me just fine (I would very likely fit well on a large too). Shimano wheels have remained true, shifters do their job, the frame absorbs the bumps wonderfully, and the looks and comments I get from people on its appearance are just a bonus. However, it did take a little extra money to get it just the way I want it. Of course, it doesn't come with pedals, and I went with Crank Bros black Candy 1's. Handlebar tape was way too thin (and slippery without gloves) for me, so I upgraded with some cushiony SRAM tape. Saddle's are of course a very personal thing, so I changed that out with my old WTB comp. But the most important change was a new headset. As much as I tried, I could not eliminate the fork play, so I finally took it to my shop who told me it had to be replaced, which cost me about $35 to do. Even considering the latter purchase, which I was a little annoyed about, I would still highly recommend this to anyone shopping for a new road bike. Your LBS will charge approx the same amnount for the same components, but with an aluminum or steel frame. Perhaps Im spoiled with having a carbon as my first frame, but I certainly wouldn't want to ride anything else. As much as I would love to support my local shops with a bike purchase, I want to get value for my money, which this bike has in spades.
Wonderful Ride
By "Jedi" Johnson
from Temecula, Ca
I ride approximately 360 miles per month and this carbon racer is the smoothest, most comfortable, lightest, most responsive bike I have ever owned. I stepped up from a BMC hybrid 54 cm. the "large" Nashbar frame is slightly bigger . . . Probably a 56 or 57. The black carbon frame and fork come unfinished so the black handlebar tape and rims give it a neat black-on-black look. Shimano shifters and brakes are smooth. I added Speedplay pedals and clips. Very happy with the purchase. Price could not be beat!!

Bought this bike as a holdover until I decided what my next bike would be. I haven't been disappointed. I have put a few hundred miles on it and love it. Saddle isn't uncomfortable like many have complained about. I love the bike, and only thing I would change is the Tiagra shifters. Took some getting used to with the handle bars being different than my specialized but I find them comfortable after riding for a month. I have unfortunately crashed it a few weeks in going roughly 25 mph and went over the front. The bike did not crack, and took it better than I did. I would recommend it to anyone.

Great bike!!!
By raptortechnique
from Mt. Pleasant, TX
I bought the bike 11 weeks ago and as of today I have 2000 miles on it. I'm 5'10" and the Medium is a perfect fit for me. I really like the gearing: Compact crankset 50-34 with 12-25 on back. The Tiagra shifters are great! I rode a friends with 105's and to me the Tiagra used less force and was more snappy switching gears. I have no plans to change the shifters. I did change the seat. It felt great on a 25 mile ride but I mostly do long rides. Seats are a personal thing. The best seat for one is the worst for another. I think what Nashbar put on the bike is a good seat. You just have to find what works for you. The bike feels great! I was very impressed at how well it climbs. The taller headtube gets the bars up for endurance rides. The frame geometry does great absorbing the road texture. The Rubino Pro III tires it comes with have great grip and low rolling resistance. They take 100-140lbs. I run mine at 130. These are folding tires and it comes with Kenda tubes. The valve stem is non-threaded and it comes with red caps. These are great when you have to fix a flat on the side of the road. The black caps get lost so easy! Currently there are 3 people with this same bike in this town. We are all very happy with them. My nephews did come with the front wheel untrue but I fixed that in 15 minutes. I have another friend with this bike that has nearly 4000 miles and he has not had any issues.
Great bike for the price!
By Rob P.
from Tooele County, Utah
I've been looking for an inexpensive entry level road bike, one that I could upgrade and enjoy right away. As I live in altitude I didn't want to have to carry the extra weight. I'm 6 foot with a 32 inch inseam, I chose the medium size. The first thing that I'll change is the handlebar tape - too thin for larger hands. The seat could be replaced as well, but so far my chamois padding in my bib is balancing that out. As I usually ride a mountain bike I went with SPD pedals. I've only had 3 runs with the bike all around 10 miles but so far so good. I've been riding/repairing/building bikes for years and found it easy to build, but if you're not experienced then Nashbar should provide better instructions or take it to a LBS (local bike shop) to ensure a proper build.
more than pleased

About Me Competitive Cyclist
I love everything about this bike straight out the box... some thins I will change though... I don't like the bar tape... Seat is un confortable... wheels and groupset (only cause im a fanboy and i want a certian look, there is nothing wrong with them as far as I can tell) This is my first carbon bike. Everywhere I go it turns heads...my first climbs I set PR's every day..I have put more than 500 miles on her, she handles like a dream, light for climbing, runs real smooth.

Well worth it!
By Ian0789
from NJ
1st off anyone who gave this bike a bad review because of the finish should probably not have even bought this bike. Matte is an actual finish of carbon fiber just like 3k and 12k weave. You love it or hate it but dont blame the frame as poor or unfinished. Keep it mind this frame is made to look like this, no one gave you some defect or messed up finish. Now on to the bike! This is a great deal for a carbon bike for under 1k! Components are great for the price. The Shimano R500 wheelset is a great solid set of wheels for the given price range and will hold up well to anything you do to them. I have a set on an other bike and they can take a beating. The Rear 105 shifts crisp and the Tiagra Shifters / Front does the job and very well. The frame finish is beautiful and very well done. The carbon is top quality and very strong, no fear what so ever in riding the heck out of this bike. I actually am using it as my new training bike since its getting time to retire my prior training road bike. Out of the box the 56cm Medium was 18.4lb. Its not the lightest but its not by any means heavy. The FSA Omega crankset is not what I would have went with as its on the heavy side of FSA line of cranks but I will be using them till they wear out and honestly I am not racing this bike so not concerned. The Seat, Bars, Stem, Post had to go they are the weakest link in the bike but then again they are something most people will change out for personal preference so they will get you going out of the box. The bike is very smooth and fast. I have only gotten to take it out for a fast ride since I just built it and its been raining nonstop but from what I did get to ride its a dream. Worth every penny when on sale.I ordered the bike on Monday early morning and was at my door Wednesday cant really complain at that turn over time. 56CM fits me great at 5'10 with a 32inch inseam. I did swap the stem to a 100mm as a bike with this length TT tends to fit me better with a 90-100MM. I cant stress how nice this frame is. It is a solid bike for anyone looking to snag a cheap carbon build and have a great foundation to build up. And when I say cheap I mean price, this frame can be found sold on overseas sites or at least was at one point for only a bit less then the WHOLE bike. The stealth look is great as well, I really am happy with how it looks. If you dont care that your bike doesnt have some big name slapped on the side of it then get this bike. Dont even think twice, if its on sale pick it up. You can not go wrong at all with this bike and once you ride it you will be sold.

This is my first road bike I have rode it twice since my purchase and I love this bike. When I ride it I dont want to get off of it. Very light the seat is comfortable. It allows me to get a good cardio workout in while burning a ton of calories fast. I would strongly reccomend this bike.

St. Valentine is a lie – and why that means you should question everything.
It's Valentine's Day again, which means we'll all be buying cards, chocolates and flowers for our significant other (or ridiculing the holiday for its commercial vapidness). Since Valentine's Day is one of the major holidays of the western world, you've probably heard the history:
We celebrate Valentine's day in honor of St. Valentinus, who was martyred a long time ago around February 14th – the "romance" part is because he continued to marry soldiers during wartime; the crime that led to his death.
Except until the 18th Century, the "romantic" part wasn't celebrated at all (although kind of referenced in some literature) and suddenly burst into being, with the popularity of mass-produced, factory-made Valentine's Day cards. So how did we get from a guy dying for marriage – through an interim of around 1500 years – to the romantic meaning we have to day?
Like almost all western holidays, St. Valentine's day is a massive Christian cover up.
Christian leaders soon learned that officially prohibiting a thousand-year-old cultural custom was impossible, so in every case (even the very minor holidays which they made Saints Days) they took the dates people were already celebrating and shifted the "why" – so that people could keep doing … Read More »
Can non-believers be creative? Steven Pressfield's new proof for the existence of God (and why it fails)
Today on Steven Pressfield's blog he posted an article called How Resistance Proves the Existence of God.
Let me start by saying, I saw this coming years ago.
I saw it in his now famous "War or Art" and in the interview he did with Oprah.
I saw it in the new book "Do the Work" Seth Godin asked him to write.
In brief, Pressfield believes that we are all called to produce art, and our greatest enemy in life is Resistance.
Resistance is that inner voice of doubt that tells us we're not good enough.
The problem with the assumption, is that it means:
A) God wants ALL of us to be creative artists.
B) Whatever we produce is God's will.
Which is bound to make us a little egocentric. It's also likely to turn artists and writers (who believe it) into sad and frustrated and lonely artists (nobody gets me! Why isn't my work appreciated!?)
And in my experience, those authors, artists and creatives who really believe it are also far more likely to fail.
Someone who likes to be creative but doesn't believe in God, for example, may decide to "sell out" by making something cool that people want and making a lot of money. They may study … Read More »
Sherlock Holmes hates Americans: Guy Fawkes and Revolutionary Terrorism
I was excited to take a break from writing my thesis tonight to start Season 3 of Sherlock Holmes, "The Empty Hearse." Since my thesis is focused mainly on Milton, Guy Fawkes and revolutionary terrorism, I was very surprised that the plot of episode one takes place among November 5th events that commemorate the infamous Gunpowder Plot of 1605.
The interesting thing about Guy Fawkes – who has become the de facto symbol of revolutionary action around the world since the making of the movie V for Vendetta, which portrayed him and his plan to destroy parliament as heroic and vital – is that he's both a hero and a villain, as all revolutionary heroes are.
Generally speaking, lower classes with less to lose are eager to get behind the idea of a clean slate revolution that tears down social borders, financial institutions and governmental law, while upper classes view the same idea with horror.
There are also religious differences – Guy Fawkes was a Catholic terrorist who wanted to blow up the ruling Protestant King, James I, and restore freedom and power to Catholics in England.
To Catholics, Guy Fawkes was a hero. To Protestants, the devil himself. Him and the conspirators were … Read More »
How Wreck-it Ralph is secretly teaching kids to love Satan
Within just the past decade, there has been a rapid shift in the characterization of the Other – from monstrous, to misunderstood; from frightening to friendly. Thus, vampires, werewolves and witches have changed from being evil creatures of the night, to tragically misunderstood victims of judgmental traditionalist organizations who are constantly challenging their right to exist. In 2012 we even had the movie Wreck it Ralph, in which all the classic "evil" characters from video games were given the chance to express their feelings in a bad-guy support group. The common feeling was "They can't change who they are, they have to accept themselves as evil." Their affirmation goes,
"I'm bad. And that's good. I will never be good. And that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be, than me."
What is fascinating to me (as a PhD student in Comparative Literature) is how closely Wreck-it-Ralph mirrors Milton's Satan in Paradise Lost – except for one major difference. In sync with contemporary moral values of inclusion and acceptance, the hero of the movie, Ralph, makes the transition from bad to good – demonstrating to children everywhere that good and evil are not fixed boundaries, but fluid definitions which can be altered … Read More »
War on Christmas Poetry Contest Winners
Recently I found this awesome Baphomet sweater and decided to give a few away by having a quick poetry contest. I deleted some comments so that those who spent more time and posted longer poems would win (I hate moderating…. Cameron G – if you get in touch with me I'll send you an Amazon gift card.)
Liz Johnson – Sweater
Santa Claus I beg of thee
Place my presents below the tree
So when I wake there I will find
Books of Jesus Christ maligned
Words that denounce Jesus the Jew
Nietzsche, Dawkins, Harris, too
All these would quite well suffice
To spurn my hate of Jesus Christ
I much prefer the ways of science
In this field I find reliance
Not with the fundies, the crazy Christians
Or all the stupidity of religion
It's towards the Bible
That I write libel
I need these books to inspire
Religious leaders to retire
I tell you now, I guarantee
People without God are free
Those that worship made up things
Are responsible for divine right of kings!
Jesus saves the willing slaves
As Christians pray for a better world
We must all dig our graves
Until the Atheist flag unfurls
Truth though be it as it may
I write the poem in an ironic way
As I write this anti-religious letter
I am praying for a satanic sweater
Hail Baphomet

Are all Chinese people Satan worshipers?
I was looking for something on Alibaba recently and saw a post I thought was funny – a giant inflatable Santa, but they had misspelled it to "Satan." No big deal, but kind of funny. But I looked around some more, and there were several dozen different products making the same mistake.
You'd think if they couldn't speak or spell in English, then they would've use a translator and been careful to copy the right letters.
Or maybe that's just how they spell Santa in China.
And then there's some posts like this, for a "Satan tube dress" or "Satan ribbon."
It took me a minute, but I guess they were probably trying to spell "Satin" and got it wrong. Just a harmless spelling error.
But there's more. Here's one of my favorites:
A company that makes horoscope necklaces for the 12 planets spelled everything right, but spelled Saturn (planet for Capricorn) as "Satan." They even spelled it right on the description but wrong on the actual necklace. That seems a bit devious.
It's especially interesting because the planet Saturn, who's tied to Chronos in mythology and depicted with a scythe, strongly influenced the mythology of Satan (and death, reaper of souls). Saturn is the old man … Read More »
War on Christmas: a blasphemous ugly sweater giveaway contest!
Christmas isn't a big deal here in Taiwan, so it's hard to get "in the season" or riled up by this "War on Christmas" controversy. But I want to celebrate the meaning of Christmas by giving away two things I really want, rather than buying them for myself.
First up is this amazing Christmas "ugly-sweater" with Baphomet on it.
Next is this snazzy hoodie (that's not even available outside of Taiwan but I'll ship it to you). When you zip it all the way up, you transfigure into Jesus. Then you can go around saying "Merry ME-MAS!"
These retail for about $80 each, so it's a meaningful something that most people probably wouldn't buy for themselves, but would love to wear – and I want someone cool to be out in the world wearing them.
How to win
Write a "War on Christmas" poem and put it in the comments. It can be a short limerick, a koan, a heroic couplet, a haiku, ballad, stanza or non-rhyming experimental. It doesn't have to be long or very good. Funny or serious is up to you, just something about the whole "happy holidays" feud.
"Disqus" has an upvote function, so one winner will be the one that gets … Read More »

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I received chemotherapy and radiation for anal cancer in 2006. As a gay man, is it safe to resume anal intercourse?
Najjia N. Mahmoud, MD, Assistant Professor of Surgery at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in the Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery, responds:
I don't see any reason why someone would not be able to engage in anal receptive intercourse with the following stipulations:
Jan 20, 2011 - The combination of chemotherapy with intensity-modulated radiation therapy is equally as effective for the treatment of anal cancer after two years as the combination of chemotherapy and conventionally delivered radiation therapy, as well as less toxic, according to a study presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology's annual Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, held from Jan. 20 to 22 in San Francisco.

Eight-time Grammy-winner Lauryn Hill pleaded guilty in the summer of 2012 to not paying federal taxes on more than $1.5 million earned over three years. She was eventually sentenced to three months in prison and served all but a few days of her sentence, being released for good behavior on October 4, 2013. She also had to pay $970,000 in back taxes and penalties and spend another three months in home confinement.
In 2006, Ron Isley (left), the lead singer and founding member of the R&B and funk group the Isley Brothers, known for songs such as "Shout," "Twist and Shout," "That Lady" and "It's Your Thing," was convicted of tax evasion charges and sentenced to three years and one month in prison. He completed his sentence on April 13, 2010.
Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne faced a lien on their $12 million California home after owing back taxes of $718,948 from 2008 and $1 million from 2009. The couple announced in April 2012 that they had paid their outstanding taxes.

In 2007, Marc Anthony was ordered to pay $2.5 million in back taxes for failing to file tax returns from 2000 to 2004.

In 2012, the state of Georgia added another $592,594.82 tax lien for the year 2007.

Country singer Willie Nelson, aka "The Red-Headed Stranger," became friends with the IRS in 1993 when he settled a $16 million delinquent tax bill. The tax evasion nightmare began in 1990 for Nelson, which cost him nearly all of his personal belongings (which many fans and friends bought at auctions and gave back to him). Nelson also released the album "The IRS Tapes: Who Will Buy My Memories," and its profits were directed to the IRS.
O.J. Simpson's doing jail time for his role in an armed confrontation over sports memorabilia, but that's not his only problem. He was named on a list issued by the state of California in 2007 for owing $1.4 million in personal income taxes, with a tax lien dating back to 1999.
Singer Dionne Warwick declared Chapter 7 bankruptcy on March 21, 2013, reportedly due to the mismanagement of her business affairs. She listed liabilities of nearly $7 million owed to the IRS for the years 1991 to 1999 and more than $3 million in business taxes owed to the state of California.
Life's not always a good thing for lifestyle maven Martha Stewart. In 1994, Stewart was ordered by the state of New York to pay $200,000 in state taxes. Stewart claimed that she wasn't responsible to pay the bill since she was only a part-time resident of the state.
World famous tenor Luciano Pavarotti was convicted of tax evasion in 1999, and ordered to pay $11 million to the Italian Courts. He was again accused of tax evasion by his hometown of Modena in 2001. The opera star was acquitted of the charges and spared what would have been an $18 million fine.

Not wanting to be one of "the little people" who pay taxes, billionaire Leona Helmsley and her husband withheld millions in tax revenue. She was sentenced to almost two years in prison along with a $7 million fee in 1990. Rumor indicates that she had money smuggled into prison for the purpose of paying an inmate to be her servant.
Redd Foxx filed for bankruptcy protection in 1983, but that didn't stop the IRS from raiding his Las Vegas home and seizing his possessions to pay off $3 million he owed in back taxes, interest and penalties. He remained in the hole until his death in 1991.
Comedian Richard Pryor's tumultuous career included an arrest for tax evasion in June 1974. He served 10 days in the Los Angeles County Jail for the offense, and teamed with comedian Flip Wilson to throw a benefit concert for the jail's 300 inmates soon after.
Becoming the first "Survivor" winner came at a cost for Richard Hatch, who in 2006, was convicted for failing to pay taxes on his $1 million paycheck.
