The fall out continues and sadly for the non profits, a center that was helping those with cancer.  Also, the Shapiro Foundation will not be creating any new grants for the year 2009.  

The SEC, just like the FDA needs to have the talent and technology to be able to monitor and hopefully our government is now painfully aware as are many citizens that lack of technology will get one “screwed”, as there is no bliss left.  I’m sure there will be more agencies added to the list as time moves on, and hopefully the SEC can leave poor sick Steve Jobs alone and go after some real culprits.  BD 

BOSTON - February 03, 2009 - The Greater Boston area has lost a free source of support and education for people with cancer.
The Wellness Community of Greater Boston in Newton, Mass., abruptly closed its doors Monday, citing the economic downturn and a drop-off in donations, stemming from Bernard Madoff's alleged Ponzi scheme.
As a result, the Wellness Community has canceled free nutrition programs, yoga classes, meditation and networking groups
