The son of Dr Heimlich who invented the famous Heimlich manoeuvre (used on choking people to expel the foreign body), is publicly accusing his father of being a fraud . Why would he do such a thing ?

Not just Maddie, for example the sad,sad story of the two year girl, bruttally kicked and punched by her "wealthy businessman "dad. I would like to know what the mother was doing cause she was in the apartment at the time. How could she not react to her child's screams?? He snapped due to stress and now under sucicide watch? Aww, what a shame. I hope he goes to prison for murder, she for neglect, but being wealthy, no chance!!
Another story, children died,along with their father, cause he had issues with the mother and set fire to the house. Is there a pattern here? That children cannot be safe with their fathers anymore?? For your information, I'm not a man-hating single mother! Just sickened over these stories.

Yes, we all want to see Paris Hilton brought down a peg or two, but this latest incident of her being dragged screaming from court calling for her mother like a child with her full sentence reinstated seems like mental torture. I mean, it's only a traffic offense, not rape, murder or drug dealing. Is she being made an example of so the judge can flex her muscles and impress everyone? Is she getting her comeuppance or is she getting a raw deal? What do you think?

Did you see that we intercepted two convoys of insurgents shipping weapons to Afghanistan? they saw the weopons with fake U.S. Army labels same as the ones they have found in Iraq, just goes to show you that Iran is funding terrorism same ways Iraq was doing to the Taliban. But now our goverment is so scared over the Iraq war that they dont want to do nothing to spark another war so they are not adressing it. Hopefully this doesnt back fire and Iran decides to smuggle nuclear weapons or chemical weapons to Iraq.

For example if I go to the state high school track meet to cover a certain group of athletes for newspaper A. Can I also write articles for newspaper B about the same group of athletes? Do the stories have to be different? Do the quotes need to be different?

Were you aware President Bush had been arrested for drunk driving? Do you know what "caging votes" is, and do you think it supports the troops to have their votes caged? Are you aware that 86,000 residents of New Orleans whose homes were not damaged in Katrina are not being allowed to reoccupy their property because well connected developers want it? Are you aware that 40 % of your taxes goes to pay interest on the national debt? Are you aware that 80 % of the national debt was run up by Presidents Reagan and this Bush? Are you aware that Paris Hilton is back in jail today? Do you think the American "news media" is useless?

Sure she is a spoiled rich girl. Yes, she should serve her time like anyone else would. But she is in torment. I pity her. The judge was right. But I pity her.

Did you see the interview the kid who won the national competition in CNN?

Link is here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4hLS01uscY

That has to be the MOST awkward interview ever. That kid who absolutely no social skill whatsoever. It shouldn't come as a surprise as they spend their time remember words from a freaking dictionary.

Isn't spelling bee competition one of the most stupid pursuit ever? Is there any benefit at all, other than say "oh, I can spell that word"?

I believe Sirhan Sirhan killed Bobby Kennedy and that he acted alone. Fired 8 bullets. 3 of them hit Mr. Kennedy.

I watched the "Conspiracy Test" program on the Discovery Channel. I'm sticking to the "Lone assassin" theory. I find it unlikely that there was a conspiracy and a cover-up going on.

Holy shizzle!!! I just heard on the radio that a female officer had to "strong arm" Paris 'cause she didn't want to go, and was resisting the woman!!! Also, it was reported, that when Paris had to report in front of the judge today---she was a far cry from what she first looked like--all smug, glammed up, makeup on...This time--she was "disshelved, hair a mess, no makeup, and looked frumpy w/a baggy t-shirt....LOL!!! I don't feel AT ALL sorry for her!!!!!!

Does that mean she's only going back because the jury or whoever decides wants to show everyone that celebrities don't have privilages when it comes to this?

A typical republican thing to do; violence is their answer. It isn’t a black eye only the legislature and the senate as Jay Love has said excluding the Republican Party accordingly. It is the blackest eye there will be, and more to still come for the Republican Party, this is how they react; and people cannot react like this. As Bill Clinton has said: “I like that about the Republicans; the evidence does not faze them, they are not bothered at all by the facts.” Great quote; endless meanings. But as for Sen. Lowell Barron, I would encourage him to comprehend the words of JFK. “Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.” –John F. Kennedy
