KEY WEST, Fla. (July 19, 8:10 am ADT) - In a dispute fitting of an Ernest Hemingway novel, two bars in the hard-drinking author's former home are fighting over rights to use the name of his old watering hole.
But this bar brawl is taking place in court.
Sloppy Joe's Bar and Captain Tony's Saloon are half a block from each other in Key West, and both claim Hemingway used to drink there.

Carter, Gorbachev, others file brief with high court
Jimmy Carter, Mikhail Gorbachev, the American Medical Association and 48 nations are among those who lobbied the Supreme Court Monday to end the execution of killers who committed their crimes before age 18.
The United States executed more young killers than the rest of the world combined between 1990 and 2003, the diplomats’ filing said.
In the past four years, only five nations have executed juveniles, the diplomats said: Congo, China, Iran, Pakistan and the United States.

Mysterious new disease turns big-breasted babes into flat-chested females
LOS ANGELES -- Chesty swimsuit models and Hollywood starlets are running scared -- because of a new disease that whittles large breasts down into teensy nubs not much bigger than mosquito bites!
Spider-Man 2 star Kirsten Dunst ordered video game designers to tone down the animated version of her character Mary Jane - because they gave her over-inflated breasts.
The actress was asked to give her approval for the sequel's new merchandise and had to chastise the game's saucy creators.
She says: "I got to approve the video game, the way she looks. They made her boobs gigantic. I was like, 'Tone down the boobs, please!" It was a little ridiculous."

Report: Bigger breasts offered as perk to soldiers
Wednesday, July 21, 2004 Posted: 6:46 PM EDT (2246 GMT)
NEW YORK (Reuters) -- The U.S. Army has long lured recruits with the slogan "Be All You Can Be," but now soldiers and their families can receive plastic surgery, including breast enlargements, on the taxpayers' dime.
The New Yorker magazine reports in its July 26th edition that members of all four branches of the U.S. military can get face-lifts, breast enlargements, liposuction and nose jobs for free -- something the military says helps surgeons practice their skills.
"Anyone wearing a uniform is eligible," Dr. Bob Lyons, chief of plastic surgery at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio told the magazine, which said soldiers needed the approval of their commanding officers to get the time off.
Between 2000 and 2003, military doctors performed 496 breast enlargements and 1,361 liposuction surgeries on soldiers and their dependents, the magazine said.
The magazine quoted an Army spokeswoman as saying, "the surgeons have to have someone to practice on."

CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) -- A Japanese man flying to Ohio was arrested after he was seen writing down the words "suicide bomb," but he was released without charge after explaining that it was an impromptu English exercise.
The 60-year-old man told investigators he came across the words in a newspaper and wanted to look up their meaning, police spokeswoman Alice Casanova said.
"He teaches himself English by reading newspapers," she said. "It was all just a miscommunication."
The man was aboard United Airlines flight 1184 en route to Dayton, Ohio, on a business trip Sunday when a fellow passenger spotted the words and alerted an attendant, Casanova said.
The flight returned to O'Hare International Airport, where the man was taken into custody and all of the other 120 passengers were taken off the plane and rescreened.
Investigators also searched the plane. "Nothing panned out and he was released," Casanova said.
Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman Andrea McCauley said travelers need to be mindful of how they behave on airplanes because potential security threats are treated very seriously.
"We caution people not to write about bombs because if they're going on vacation, their travel plans will be disrupted," she said.

LOS ANGELES - A jury recommended that a vice president of legal affairs at Sony Pictures Entertainment and his wife should pay more than $500,000 in damages to a woman who claimed that they kept her as an indentured servant.
A jury on Thursday found James and Elizabeth Jackson liable for subjecting Nena Ruiz to involuntary servitude and for negligence and fraud. Elizabeth Jackson was also deemed liable for assault and battery.
"Of course, we're very disappointed in the verdict," said their attorney, Jack Daniels. He said his clients were considering an appeal.
Ruiz, 60, claimed in a Superior Court lawsuit filed last year that she often worked at least 18 hours a day and was forced to do strange household chores such as heating chicken nuggets and cutting up bananas or pears for two dogs.
She said she was paid $300 for a year's work at the couple's Culver City condominium.
Ruiz also alleged that she had to sleep in a dog bed and that Elizabeth Jackson repeatedly slapped her and pulled her hair.

August 25, 2004 -- A 20-year employee of the Nassau County Museums Division pleaded guilty yesterday to stealing more than 2,000 artifacts, including a small model of a Wright airplane that fetched more than $100,000 at auction.
The plea agreement called for Kappeler to serve 1½ to 4½ years in prison and pay full restitution in the amount of about $249,000. In exchange, Nassau prosecutors agreed to drop numerous charges from two indictments against Kappeler.

HAYWARD, United States (AFP) - The Loatian-born deer hunter accused of killing six members of a hunting party during a rampage in woodland in northwest Wisconsin at the weekend, has told US authorities that he was fired on first, according to court papers released Tuesday.
Chai Vang told investigators that members of the party verbally abused him, calling him "chink" and "gook," and that one man fired on him as he was preparing to leave the private estate that was the scene of Sunday's deadly shooting spree.
Chai Soua Vang, 36, was surrounded by angry hunters who found him trespassing on their land on Sunday and at least one called him a "gook, chink, fucking Asian," according to a document filed by investigators in Sawyer County Circuit Court.

CBS Shooting Suspect Had Army Service Ribbon For Sharpshooting
Nov 23, 2004 6:19 pm US/Central
St. Paul (AP) The man suspected in the shooting deaths of six Wisconsin hunters spent six years in the California National Guard, and earned a
sharpshooter qualification badge, according to military records obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press.
Chai Soua Vang also earned an expert qualification badge for hand grenade during his time in the Guard, from 1989 to 1995.
But his primary role for the Guard in Sacramento was as a "patient administration specialist," a mostly clerical role. After his discharge, he spent two more years in the Individual Ready Reserve.
521 ：名無しさん＠５周年 ：04/11/26 00:25:20 ID:aV+bREeJ
Lt. Jonathan Shiroma, a spokesman for the California Guard, said sharpshooter is a middle qualification level for a basic trainee, above marksman but below expert.
The sharpshooter qualification requires hitting 30 to 35 out of 40 targets at distances ranging from 50 to 300 meters, Shiroma said.
Shiroma said trainees have to shoot at least at the marksman level to make it out of basic training. Dov Schwartz, an Army spokesman in Washington, said
the qualification was "not an extraordinarily special thing" for a shooter.
Since moving to Minnesota, Vang appears to have led a quiet life, playing soccer and raising roosters at the St. Paul home he shared with his family. He wasn't widely known in the city's Hmong community.
Acquaintances viewed him as cordial, but his past includes a brush with Minneapolis police after Vang threatened his wife with a gun.
His name is Broadband. He is in "Kids Zone" at the website of an US government agency, FCC (Federal Communications Commission).
And he is Doraemon. Perhaps he is the most beloved Japanese manga/anime character. Its manga series was started in 1969 and is one of the most succeeded series in the Japanese character merchandising market.

Lesson backfires on dad
NEWARK, N.J. -- A father's attempt to teach his daughter a lesson about drinking backfired when the teen led police to a stash of drugs and weapons inside their home. Kevin Winston, 46, called police on Friday after his 16-year-old daughter came home drunk and unruly. When police arrived, however, the girl told them she feared for her safety because her father stored drugs and weapons in the home.
The girl led officers to a crawl space where they found four semiautomatic guns and more than 600 vials of cocaine.

Convicted Sex Offender 'Santa' Accused Of Molesting Child 'Elf'
Accuser Was Playing Santa's Elf

FOREST CITY, N.C. -- A convicted sex offender in North Carolina who was hired to play Santa is accused of taking indecent liberties with an 11-year-old girl who was portraying Santa's elf.
Authorities say 73-year-old Zay Jones was arrested at a highway rest stop after the child told a woman that Jones had touched her inappropriately in his vehicle. The woman called police.
As part of the plea agreement, 42-year-old Brian Shaw, of Wilton, Conn., will be sentenced to six years probation and is required to register as a sex offender. Shaw also surrendered his medical license to the New York State Health Department.

The unconventional proposals were made by the US Air Force
The US military investigated building a "gay bomb", which would make enemy soldiers "sexually irresistible" to each other, government papers say.
Other weapons that never saw the light of day include one to make soldiers obvious by their bad breath.
The US defence department considered various non-lethal chemicals meant to disrupt enemy discipline and morale.
The 1994 plans were for a six-year project costing $7.5m, but they were never pursued.
The US Air Force Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, sought Pentagon funding for research into what it called "harassing, annoying and 'bad guy'-identifying chemicals".
The plans were obtained under the US Freedom of Information by the Sunshine Project, a group which monitors research into chemical and biological weapons.
'Who? Me?'
The plan for a so-called "love bomb" envisaged an aphrodisiac chemical that would provoke widespread homosexual behaviour among troops, causing what the military called a "distasteful but completely non-lethal" blow to morale.
Scientists also reportedly considered a "sting me/attack me" chemical weapon to attract swarms of enraged wasps or angry rats towards enemy troops.
A substance to make the skin unbearably sensitive to sunlight was also pondered.
Another idea was to develop a chemical causing "severe and lasting halitosis", so that enemy forces would be obvious even when they tried to blend in with civilians.
In a variation on that idea, researchers pondered a "Who? Me?" bomb, which would simulate flatulence in enemy ranks.
Indeed, a "Who? Me?" device had been under consideration since 1945, the government papers say.
However, researchers concluded that the premise for such a device was fatally flawed because "people in many areas of the world do not find faecal odour offensive, since they smell it on a regular basis".
Captain Dan McSweeney of the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate at the Pentagon said the defence department receives "literally hundreds" of project ideas, but that "none of the systems described in that [1994] proposal have been developed".
He told the BBC: "It's important to point out that only those proposals which are deemed appropriate, based on stringent human effects, legal, and international treaty reviews are considered fordevelopment or acquisition."
Boy Sues Math Teacher Who Assigned Summer Homework
Teen, Dad Say School Has No Authority Over Students During Summer
POSTED: 11:47 am EST January 20, 2005
MILWAUKEE -- A suburban Milwaukee teen and his dad are suing the boy's math teacher for assigning homework to be done over summer vacation.
They are seeking to bar homework assignments over the summer.
Peer Larson (pictured, left), a 17-year-old student at Whitnall High School, and his father, Bruce Larson of Hales Corners, contend in the suit which stemmed from an assignment in a math class that school officials have no legal authority to make students do homework over the summer because the state-required 180-day school year is over.
"It is poor public policy," Bruce Larson argued in the lawsuit filed last week in Milwaukee County Circuit Court. "These students are still children, yet they are subjected to increasing pressure to perform to ever-higher standards in numerous theaters. Come summer, they need a break."
The Larsons said they believe that, if teachers want to assign homework during the summer vacation, it should be voluntary and not factored into the student's grade without the student's consent.
Whitnall School Board member Mary Ann Lindberg said the board left the matter up to administrators.
"Sometimes those kinds of decisions are best made at the building level with the teachers and the principal and perhaps someone in administration, because they know best what they're trying to achieve," Lindberg said.
Whitnall School District Superintendent Karen Petric says the district tried to resolve the matter, but was unable to do so.
"I strongly believe the district acted appropriately and didn't do anything wrong," Petric said. "Court is not the place to solve it. It doesn't belong there."
Petric said the district would not have anything else to say on the matter because of concerns over student confidentiality.

Coach Resigns After Porn Investigation --- Officials Say Coach Showed Porn Tape To Players
POSTED: 3:33 pm CST January 29, 2005 UPDATED: 4:58 pm CST January 29, 2005
NEW LONDON, Iowa -- A southeast Iowa high school girls basketball coach has resigned after an investigation accused him of showing a tape with pornography on it to his team.
New London school officials said coach Paul Lorber resigned out of respect to the district and the players on his team.
Officials said a school investigation showed that Lorber was showing a game tape during a practice when a pornographic scene briefly appeared.
They said the tape had been previously used, and contained material that Lorber was unaware of.
The coach stopped the tape immediately and apologized to his players.
Lorber was in his eighth season as the head coach of the New London High School girls basketball team.
Teacher and coach Gina Sisk has been named as his replacement.
During his time at New London, Lorber lead the Lady Tigers to 120-70 record. He also won the Golden Plaque award from the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union.
Teacher reassigned after complaints about sex education quiz
By ADRIAN BRUNE, Staff Writer
A popular Magothy River Middle School teacher has been reassigned to a "non-school-based position" after parents said he gave a sexually charged quiz to students.
Principal Charles Dunlap sent a letter to parents Friday informing them that physical education teacher Jason Madey has been moved pending an investigation.
Questions on the "Young People's Sex Quiz" ranged from the only legal sexual position in Washington, D.C., to the best method to avoid HIV infection.
"In Detroit it is only legal to have sex in a car if a.) The car is moving, b.) The car is parked on your own property, or c.) The car is broken,"
reads one of the questions.
Hotels in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, are required by law to furnish their rooms with twin beds only. There should be a minimum of two feet between the beds, and it is illegal for a couple to make love on the floor between the beds.
The only legal sexual position in Washington D.C. is the missionary-style position
while in Nevada, sex without a condom is considered illegal.
One example: "On at least two incidents in mid-to-late June 2004, Patterson intensely pressured Keller to expose herself to Koko while they were working outside where other employees could potentially view Keller's naked body. ... On one such occasion, Patterson said, 'Koko, you see my nipples all the time. You are probably bored with my nipples. You need to see new nipples. I will turn my back so Kendra can show you her nipples.' "
Some readers have questioned the figure of 10,000 enforced prostitutes brought into this country each year.
The source of that number is Kevin Bales, recommended to the magazine by Human Rights Watch as the best authority on the extent of enforced prostitution in the United States,
who based his estimates on State Department documents, arrest and prosecution records and information from nearly 50 social service agencies.
ROTHSCHILD — The man who found a bank bag containing $870,000 in checks and cash Jan. 28 and returned it to the village of Rothschild has received $500 from its insurance company.
John Jazdzewski, 52, also received $200 in gift cards from local businesses and other gifts.
es; a lifetime membership for him and his family to the Rothschild/ Schofield Aquatic Center; a two-night stay and water park passes at The Lodge at Cedar Creek in Rothschild; $100 worth of groceries at Pick ’n Save in Weston; and a six-month membership at the Aspirus YMCA in Weston.
Ross' gripes began in the mid-1990s, after he had been treated for mouth cancer at the University of Illinois at Chicago hospital. Disfigured by the treatment, which left him cancer-free, according to the hospital, he became convinced that he had been the victim of malpractice.
After a string of state and federal judges had rejected his claims, the Polish emigre last year filed a federal lawsuit that was randomly assigned to Lefkow. His anger came through in documents seeking more than $500 million from the state of Illinois, and millions more from doctors and lawyers.
Ross said he lost all his upper teeth during the treatment and needed to have his jaw rebuilt. The hospital said in a statement Thursday that Ross received "conservative and appropriate care" and that disfigurement is a common result of the treatment.
"He was becoming obsessed with the issue and more and more paranoid," said Don Rose, a Chicago political consultant whose partner hired Ross to do electrical work. He said Ross asked his help in filing his lawsuits and later asked him for money. Rose said he recommended several lawyers but did not give him any money.
Cline said Ross' name was on a list of litigants whom FBI agents and detectives had intended to interview. He said police were working their way through 600 tips and hundreds of cases in Lefkow's court and the business relations of her husband, a labor lawyer.
http://www.answers.com/topic/compulsory-sterilization United States of America
The first significant country to undertake compulsory sterilization programs for the purpose of eugenics was the United States of America. The principle targets of the American program were the mentally retarded and the mentally ill, but also targetted under many state laws were the deaf, the blind, the epileptic, the physically deformed, and even orphans and the homeless.
http://www.cwluherstory.com/CWLUArchive/cesa.html
Sterilization abuse first gained national attention in 1973 with the revelation that two black sisters, the Relf sisters, aged 12 and 14, had been deemed mentally incompetent by an Alabama physician who subsequently sterilized them using Federal funds to pay for the procedures.14 Their mother, who could not read or write, had been deceived into signing her "x" on the consent forms. A federal lawsuit followed; one result being that a Federal judge ordered DHEW to stiffen its then newly formed guidelines in order to prevent such abuse from occurring again.
Then there is the case of the South Carolina physician who refused to deliver a black welfare mother's fourth child unless she agreed to be sterilized postpartum. He subsequently sterilized 28 women in three months, all of them Black.18

Anna Ayala, 39, who hired a San Jose, Calif., attorney to represent her in the Wendy's case, has been involved in at least half a dozen legal battles in the San Francisco Bay area, according to court records.
...
Ayala acknowledged, however, that her family received a settlement for their medical expenses about a year ago after reporting that her daughter, Genesis, got sick from food at an El Pollo Loco restaurant in Las Vegas.
Ayala, 39, was taken into custody Thursday night at her suburban Las Vegas home based on a warrant alleging grand larceny and attempted grand larceny. She has denied placing the finger in the chili.
Davis said the grand larceny allegation has no connection to the Wendy's case and instead stems from a 2002 incident in which Ayala allegedly tried to sell a mobile home in San Jose that she didn't own. The victim lost $11,000.
Davis said the second allegation, the attempted grand larceny, pertained to the Wendy's case.
anticipating the woman is Edith Schuth (SHOOF), whose son claims he hid her body in the freezer more than four years ago.
Schuth told investigators he hid the body after his mother died of natural causes on Aug. 15, 2000. He said he was afraid he would be investigated for homicide or abuse, and he also would have to live without his mother's monthly Social Security checks.

The long struggle of a sexual assault victim By JOAN RYAN
Martine Savage never imagined herself moving out of California in the middle of her senior year at high school.
She left behind her role as Abigail in "The Crucible,'' her spot on the school soccer team, her part-time job at a beauty salon, her friends. She won't be attending her prom or her graduation.
Savage accused three classmates at San Rafael High of sexually assaulting her after a house party on Jan. 15. One was on the baseball team. One on the basketball team.
All three were in the popular crowd. Savage wasn't. She is the kind of girl who gets good grades and dresses a little eccentrically and can be abrupt when she's annoyed.

a film shot by the 49ers' former public relations director, Kirk Reynolds, that included enough off-color jokes to make Howard Stern shake his head.
Inside of its 15-minute running time, the movie managed to be homophobic and xenophobic, to make light of the homeless, to encourage bribery, and to
reduce the subject of gay marriage to lesbian porn -- and all of this, amazingly enough, in the name of fostering mutual understanding between peoples of different beliefs and backgrounds.
・・・opens with George Chung, a former 49ers staffer, doing his best Charlie Chan.
After demonstrating his inability to pronounce certain letters of the Roman alphabet ("Tim Latte, he feel good now"), he goes on to say, "My name is Suck Hung. My brother's name is Suck Young my whole family suck."
After this bit of comic artistry, we're taken to a lesbian wedding at the Mitchell Brothers' O'Farrell Theater, where the happy couple drops to the floor for some heavy petting after exchanging "I do's."

Judith Miller, a journalist of mass misinformation
The role of Vice-President Cheney in the “weapons of mass destruction” in Iraq lie made us forget about the responsibility of the press for disseminating false news. Judith Miller, a star journalist and writer, added a lot of fuel to the fire in the case against Bin Laden. Not satisfied with blaming him for several attacks in the United States since 1993, she convinced the world that Bin Laden was also responsible for the anthrax attacks. After receiving one of the mysterious letters herself, she said: “I’m the news”. Indeed she was, but she has not told the truth. Judith Miller represents “information laundering”; her scoops in the New York Times come from anonymous sources in Dick Cheney’s circle, and are publicly confirmed by authorities... represented by Dick Cheney.

“Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery, and sadly, we see it here in Illinois,” said Governor Rod Blagojevich
The most recent case of slavery in Illinois was discovered on February 27 when several federal agents conducted five raids in *Rockford massage parlors
where they found “undocumented Chinese and Korean women kept in brothels. The young women worked and lived in small rooms, virtually enslaved, unable to go out to the street.”
State, U.S. officials announce plan to combat human trafficking
In *Rockford, authorities earlier this year shut down several health spas after investigators found evidence that Asian women and girls were likely smuggled into the country to work there as prostitutes.

Man Kills Wife After Sex To Watch Sports On TV
UPDATED: 12:45 pm EDT August 4, 2005
PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- A Florida sports fan has been sentenced to death for killing his wife after sex.
Christoper Offord got angry because his wife wanted to cuddle after they had sex -- but he wanted to watch sports on television. She died after being struck dozens of times with a claw hammer.
Offord later confessed to a bartender at a sports bar, and eventually pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.
In imposing the death sentence, the judge said the brutality of the crime outweighed any of the defendant's possible mental problems.
Offord did not speak in court, but admitted in a jailhouse interview that he deserved to die.
LINCOLN, Neb. - A California man believed to be the only Japanese-American to have flown over Japan during World War II was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal on Friday, the third highest of the U.S. Army's decorations.
Ben Kuroki of Camarillo, Calif., received the medal at a dinner in his honor Friday night in his home state of Nebraska.
"Receiving this medal so many decades after the fact is truly incredible," Kuroki said at the ceremony. "I had to fight like hell to fight for my country, and now I feel completely vindicated."
The son of Japanese immigrants who was raised on a Hershey, Neb., farm, Kuroki, 88, became a gunner and flew on 58 bomber missions over Europe, North Africa and Japan.
He and his brother, at their father's urging, sought to enlist after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941. After being turned down by recruiting officials in North Platte, the brothers traveled 150 miles to Grand Island, where they were accepted.
Because of his Japanese ancestry, Kuroki was initially rejected when he asked to serve on a B-29 bomber that was to be used in the Pacific. But after repeated requests and a review of Kuroki's stellar service record, Secretary of War Harry Stimson granted an exception.
After the war, Kuroki returned to Nebraska. He earned a degree in journalism from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln in 1950, and eventually moved to California, where he worked for the Ventura Star-Free Press. He retired from the paper, now the Ventura County Star, in 1984.

Media escalation unnerves protest mom --- By Judy Keen, USA TODAY

Brown は経歴詐称もしてたそうだ。 http://www.dailyillini.com/media/paper736/news/2005/09/09/Opinions/Column.Pointing.My.Finger-980155.shtml
Where was our government during this time of crisis? After a state of emergency was declared in Louisiana, after an evacuation order was made for New Orleans, after tens of thousands had flocked to the Superdome with extremely limited supplies, after Hurricane Katrina made landfall and the levee was breached, where were our leaders?
President Bush was at a photo-op playing guitar with a country singer. Vice President Cheney was in some "undisclosed location" in Wyoming. Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld attended a San Diego Padres baseball game and Secretary of State Rice found the time to see a Broadway play, do a little shoe shopping and attend the U.S. Open, according to thinkprogress.org.
When in New Orleans, repair on the broken levee was delayed so that President Bush could construct a stage for a photo-op, according to a statement released by U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La. He also diverted Coast Guard helicopters, crew and 50 firefighters to stand by him for yet another photo-op. This is disgusting. This President truly seems to care more about his poll numbers than the victims of the hurricane.
...
Starting in 2001, FEMA was systematically gutted and downsized by President Bush who also installed Michael Brown as the agency's director. Brown was previously fired by the International Arabian Horses Association for incompetence, according to The Boston Herald. Unbelievably, Brown's sorry performance during Katrina evoked not scorn, but praise from the President as he told the FEMA head "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job," according to The Associated Press.
"There's a chess game going on in the sky," Stevens said. "It affects each and every one of us. It is the one common thread that binds us all together."
Although the theories espoused by Stevens - scalar weapons, global dimming - are definitely on the scientific fringe today, there are thousands of Web sites that mention such phenomena.

I knew this guy and he was NOT Normal. Everyone thinks he was a great guy and I also thought so. But,from day one, I knew he was weird. What everyone reads is misleading. He as not the typical family guy that just had a run of bad luck and snapped all of a sudden. No, he was always a little strange.
He was overbearing and pushy - a control freak of sorts. I could never put my finger on it but I thought he was harmless. In fact, he almost tried too hard to be friendly. He was hyper and didn't really respect boundaries sometimes. He would talk about having been in the CIA but never any details. I was never sure if he was telling the truth about the CIA and that he spoke fluent Arabic, several dialects he would say.
But that's got nothing to do with it I'm sure. He was a freaking ego-maniac and obviously sick. I just can't get over how he could have done this to his beautiful babies. Do you have any idea what a .357 magnum would do to you?? SICK!
I worked with him at Children's Hospital in Oakland in the computer department.
I remember when he became a dad, it made a real impression on me about how proud and happy he was when Niki was born. He did it all right, that note sounds like him. He doesn't deserve anyone's pity, he's a piece of crap.
Give him a break!??! May he burn in hell....

“Good morning. I just finished a Cabinet meeting. One of the things we discussed was the terrible situation there in Minneapolis.

I told them that the Secretary would be there. I told them we would help with rescue efforts, but I also told them how much we are in prayer for those who suffered.”

ポイント： who married the former wife of the heart donor
Twelve years ago, Sonny Graham's heart was failing and he was on the verge of death, until he received a call from doctors, saying a donor heart had just become available.
That heart belonged to Terry Cottle, 33, who had committed suicide by shooting himself in the head.
The operation was a success and soon after, Mr Graham, 69, contacted the organ donor agency, saying he wanted to thank Mr Cottle's family.
He began writing to Mr Cottle's widow, Cheryl, 39, and they soon fell in love and were married in 2004, moving to the US state of Georgia.
