not like it was coming from his heart at all. Am sad for his family. I sure would not have been the adoring wife, on stage with him. She ought to have him ducking and dodging. To whom much is given, much is expected, but he certainly has fallen short. No integrity. Maybe when he hits bottom, he'll look 'up'.

Should she get a "compassionate release"
I don't think so. She claims to not be the same person she was when she went in, but she's as close to it as anyone else could ever be.
Here's the first couple of paragraphs of the article.
Susan Atkins, one of the Manson "family" members convicted in the 1969 murders of actress Sharon Tate and six others, is dying of brain cancer and asking to be released from a California prison after 37 years behind bars.
Doctors have told Atkins, now 60, she has six months to live, and she and her family are asking the corrections department for a "compassionate release."
"It's ridiculous to continue to pay millions of dollars to keep her in custody when she can't even sit up in bed," says Atkins' husband, James Whitehouse.
Atkins has been incarcerated at the California Institution for Women at Corona for 37 years longer than any other female inmate in state history and denied parole 11 times. Atkins told Diane Sawyer in a 2002 interview that she still hoped she would someday be released.
"I would like to be out some day. I hope to be out some day. And it's amazing that I still have hope. I don't know about expectations anymore," Atkins said.
"You know a person by their behavior, and my behavior in this institution speaks to the change that occurred over 30 years ago. I am not the same person that I was when I came in here."
From what I heard his wife did release
the tape and against court orders. This child was supposed to, from what I heard, going with him somewhere. The mother got into trouble 1 time before for going against court orders. True he did wrong by the ranting but I would be willing to bet you Ms. Kim involved in not following through with court orders. This is probably the case of a child being put in the middle by these 2 who cannot stand 1 another now. Sure it happens all the time but we are not Kim and Alec, right?
release of medical records
Wknds are the toughest at any hosp.
Considering your FIL has had a stroke, who's his proxy?.... he can't sign for himself....Someone has to run down to medical records and sign a release for ALL the medical records pertaining to the dates in question......ER, HP, procedures, consults, progress notes, labs, anything you can think of ...You are entitled to a free copy and it will be sent to your home address within a week.
Docs at the new hosp may be able to access records over the internet as a course of professional courtesy. Hope he recovers soon.

No, but if it is legit, it always sounded like my dream job!
 Paid to shop? I'm there!
my husband sounded like a train.
My nights were horrible. He snored, stopped breathing, and leg jerks all nigh. His doctor put him in a sleep clinic and he was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Now he uses a bipap machine with a mask. Not the most romantic look, but we both sleep great now with only the hummm of the machine. Have him checked.
I don't take my life for granted, though. Even though I sounded sm
like a maniac. I love my at-home job - I consistently keep a QA score of 99% or higher - and I'm fast. I am one of a few who can do both, and I don't mean that in a sarcastic way.
I think MTing is a gift. I thank God to be able to do this job from home - screaming kids and all!
Glad to know you didn't mean it like it sounded LOL (nm)

Yes, I read it. Sounded like you thought surgery
was the only way to go, and it could be a huge mistake. Once it's done and scar tissue forms, then a person has a big problem.
Yeah, Gwen sounded awful - sm
wonder if having 2 kids changed her voice or something or else she was having a really bad night.

French Press..
I have never personally had one, but a physician I worked for did and he would grind his own beans every morning and make his own coffee in it, rather than just the regular stuff we drank. I believe I tasted it once and it was very good, stronger than the regular coffee but of course that may depend on the type of beans you grind, etc. He was a coffee-fanitic!
french press
Love mine! I started with a glass one but then found a thermal one which will keep the coffee hot longer.
I have an HP, but and I sort of have to press
out, but I've got it down now. I think I know what you are talking about, but it just sort of pops out, once you press down on it. Then you have to set the new one in there and click it in by pushing it towards the back. I hope this makes sense. Also, I try to say nice things to my printer, so it will act right. This always worked for faulty copiers and fax machines when I worked on-site. People think I'm weird, can you tell? 
Call the Press!
Does your town have a/several TV stations that "investigate" these kinds of scams? TV stations love this kind of stuff, would expose the store in public. (Years ago I did some freelance transcription for an attorney who served as "city attorney," saw her on TV all the time when they showed tapings of the common council meetings here in town. Upon completion of the project I did for her she said she couldn't pay me, that it would take her a few months--or something stupid like that before she'd have the funds. (And, her husband was the city engineer! Never doubted her ability to pay). After two or three weeks of calling her looking for the money I finally sent her a certified letter, a very persuasive note letting her know that maybe the mayor might like to know how she treats her "hired help." She sent the check to me within 2 days of her receipt of the letter.) Moral of the story: Find some bigger weight to throw around. Best of luck to you. (PS: What about the state attorney general--fraud, etc., maybe you're not the only one they've done this to, put together a class action suit. That's a hornet's nest and takes forever though. Then the darned company declares bankrupty. But it's poetic justice even though you didn't recoup your money. They have to quit being crooks.)
why did they opt to press charges?

This is from the website of Christine Davis, who wrote For Every Dog an Angel, one of the things that helped me through the desolate time after I lost my beloved girldog, Noni.

There may be some ideas about how to talk to your mom in here.
It has been 2 years, I have 2 new dogs who are wonderful, but still. Not a day goes by.
And don't forget to press 1 for English - or is it 2?

Sure, like he'd press charges for assault
Doubt it very seriously. Besides, it'd be worth a night in jail to slug a slimeball like that...
Spitzer Press Conference
He's having a press conference at 11:30 this morning.
Has anyone used a French press coffee maker? sm
if so, did you like it or dislike it? Thanks!
Here is the news from Associated Press on Swayze...Yes, he has cancer, but doing well. sm
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Patrick Swayze's doctor is "optimistic" about his prognosis for battling pancreatic cancer, and the "Dirty Dancing" actor's upcoming cable pilot is still in contention to become a series.
With the writer's strike over, the A&E pilot "The Beast," starring Swayze as an unorthodox FBI agent, is being considered to be turned into a series by the cable network. If that happens, the "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost" star hopes to continue to be part of the show, his representative Annett Wolf told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Swayze has been undergoing treatment for the disease, Wolf confirmed in a statement. The National Cancer Institute estimates there will be 37,680 new cases of pancreatic cancer in 2008 with 34,290 deaths in the U.S.; only five percent of patients live more than five years after being diagnosed.
"Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far," Swayze's physician Dr. George Fisher said in a statement released by Wolf. "All of the reports stating the timeframe of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic."
Wolf said Swayze, 55, shot "The Beast" pilot last December and isn't currently working on any new projects. A&E issued a statement Wednesday stating "The Beast" was still in contention to become one of the network's new original drama series and wished Swayze a speedy recovery.
