Lawyers doctor argued in court that the team that operated on Ionel Nistor can not be accused of malpractice because, under the law, doctors are not guilty of patients suffering products because of hidden defects of medical devices.
For now, Ionel Nistor did not say whether it will turn against a knife manufacturing company in question.

Broken scalpel surgery
Ionel Nistor was operated in February 2004 at the Clinic for Neurosurgery in Cluj-Napoca, after column vetebrala lumbar area was infected with Staphylococcus "aureus".

"You must understand that the knife is very thin and carbon. I do not think I can be accused of malpractice as a scalpel blade fracture, because this is due to a defect in the instrument. On the other hand, we have acted in good faith in an emergency situation, given the condition of the septic patient. I worked in an incision 20 inches long and 12-15 cm depth in a magma of muscle destroyed much blood and pus. In these circumstances, it is impossible to identify a fragment sent. "Said neurosurgeon Stefan Florian . The doctor said Nistor tried to "fall to the peace", asking for money before trial.

Lorand Minyo , a well-known blogger in Cluj, today tells a disturbing story about one of the most famous neurosurgeons in Transylvania - Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian, director of the Neurosurgery Clinic of Cluj.
About rich mouth "obieciurile" These teachers are special corridors stuttering clinic for years. Behold, now only takes a patient public to come forward and protest against such mistreatment.
Publish the full text of bloggers hoping Lorand Minyo will not stop here and will notify and College of Physicians:
"In what follows I will assume full & unreservedly what I will write. For a myth to be demolished, people will be upset, threats can come. But I recommend with the utmost sincerity:
Avoid it by Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian , the famous neurosurgeon, neurosurgery clinic director of Cluj. And I'll explain briefly why.
3 months ago universe wrestled with me and won. So I stuck with a beauty discopathy, triple (now) herniated disc, hemangioma in one of the vertebrae and a cracked vertebra + hardly bearable pain. I made ??the necessary treatment and went somewhat. I would not want to go on the surgery for those in neurosurgery Cluj clearly explained to me: "Do not shy away, it takes two concurrent" That whatever meant. And that told me a tinereii there for " Florian gotten it, But do not put them in anything like a good drink tonight "- attention, it said it's residents in the emergency room of the girl with a goalkeeper and another distinguished gentleman expecting the aforementioned accused.
After a month of treatment and one month of rest pain returned - so I explored various alternative treatments - such as Bowen therapy - which at least in terms of my therapist seemed to be more of a hocus pocus with biblical insights and faith healing than anything else. Maybe I did not give the therapist the best or even not work - although I have heard of some cases spectacular. I pray.
So I decided to ask an opinion endorsed a permanent solution to my problem. Said and done, half made ??my appointment Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian Medical Center Transylvania - the principle of private to put you in it. # Pebaniimei like, not those of the State.
Programming was for 19 hour clinic and to my surprise it was full. As nothing moves, I suspect that all are waiting for Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian: 12 people + own. Some had programming including 18 hours.
At 7:45 p.m. receptionist shouted a few names and climb upstairs to the office
It is 19:50, there neurosurgeon, greets the world, but he goes into cabinet without even a gesture sketch. Nor stripped off his clothes and shouting was between anyone!
I'm going I salute you not greet me back, call it names. He looked over my MRI (which was already in the system) and I say yes?
I ask him puzzled: what can be done, how it looks, you need surgery, you can get rid of pain? And I can answer hallucinating:
Too old, do another and get back. Goodbye (attention, MRI has 3 months utlimii problems occurred in 31 years, so ...)
Stupefied, I ask: OK, but what do I do to get rid of pain? Which comes hallucinatory response:
Do what you did before.
When it came to me to rush to the neck. I mean this man give him £ 200 for a consultation where they mock me? And asked: Okay, so where is the need for surgery, which is the process during convalescence, risks etc? In response comes the cursed right:
If so, you'll find out. Next? moment in which I asked him furious and obviously nervous: I can even say what's hemangioma, is dangerous, which is exactly the source of the pain? He looked at me like I would have interrupted something and I say I told you to do it again, until then we have to discuss.
Out nervous, come next, I go to reception, the receptionist looked at me and ask me already? So quickly? I tell him yes, I give £ 200 and ask invoice.
Please note, all the above were performed in 45 seconds: entrants neurosurgeon Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian office, sat down, questions and answers in only, out of the cabinet. Until we arrived at the reception it took 45s - barely understood I could not move, which is not at all interested in neurosurgeon.
During that made ??my bill, two other people down. And they nervous and upset. I got my bill, I went out for a smoke, I called up left and right to get a taxi slowly I saw lights flickering Transylvania Medical Center. So Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian managed to "solve" 12 patients in about 15 minutes. Patients of neurosurgery. Congratulations CMT, you have done a great advertisement.
I understand everyone has his bad days, but I will judge you by how you treat me in the worst day ever.
Some say that I would have ruined politics, others during its glory days are long over, but I, until I had a personal experience with it I heard only good. But after this experience, left with the thought that Prof. Dr. Stefan Florian is a jerk, cursed, cocky and totally unprofessional. Accordingly, I recommend to avoid this if you have problems Cluj neurosurgeon neurosurgical really important. For Prof. Dr. Florian Stefan will not help.
***
It's sad how we got to be sick of doctors "with staif". Until recently I thought better to go private as the world take you there and do not beat one game money. It seems like that was the sunset and it so necessary to our bags. "

Florence (Italian: Firenze, pronounced [fiˈrɛntse]; Old Italian: Fiorenza, Latin: Florentia) is the capital city of the Italian region of Tuscany and of the province of Florence. It is the most populous city in Tuscany and has a population of 367,569 (1,500,000 metropolitan area).
The city lies on the River Arno and is known for its history and its importance in the Middle Ages and in the Renaissance, especially for its art and architecture. A centre of medieval European trade and finance, the city is often considered the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance; in fact, it has been called the Athens of the Middle Ages. It was long under the de facto rule of the Medici family. From 1865 to 1870 the city was also the capital of the Kingdom of Italy.
The historic centre of Florence continues to attract millions of tourists each year and was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1982.
Florence was originally established by Julius Caesar in 59 BC as a settlement for his veteran soldiers. It was named Florentia ('the flourishing') and built in the style of an army camp with the main streets, the cardo and the decumanus, intersecting at the present Piazza della Repubblica. Situated at the Via Cassia, the main route between Rome and the north, and within the fertile valley of the Arno, the settlement quickly became an important commercial centre. The Emperor Diocletian is said to have made Florentia the seat of a bishopric around the beginning of the 4th century AD, but this seems impossible in that Diocletion was a notable persecutor of Christians. In the ensuing two centuries, the city experienced turbulent periods of Ostrogothic rule, during which the city was often troubled by warfare between the Ostrogoths and the Byzantines, which may have caused the population to fall to as few as 1,000 people. Peace returned under Lombard rule in the 6th century. Florence was conquered by Charlemagne in 774 and became part of the Duchy of Tuscany, with Lucca as capital. The population began to grow again and commerce prospered. In 854, Florence and Fiesole were united in one county.
Margrave Hugo chose Florence as his residency instead of Lucca at about 1000 AD. This initiated the Golden Age of Florentine art. In 1013, construction began on the Basilica di San Miniato al Monte. The exterior of the baptistry was reworked in Romanesque style between 1059 and 1128. This period also saw the eclipse of Florence's formerly powerful rival Pisa (defeated by Genoa in 1284 and subjugated by Florence in 1406), and the exercise of power by the mercantile elite following an anti-aristocratic movement, led by Giano della Bella, that resulted in a set of laws called the Ordinances of Justice (1293).
Of a population estimated at 80,000 before the Black Death of 1348, about 25,000 are said to have been supported by the city's wool industry: in 1345 Florence was the scene of an attempted strike by wool combers (ciompi), who in 1378 rose up in a brief revolt against oligarchic rule in the Revolt of the Ciompi. After their suppression, Florence came under the sway (1382–1434) of the Albizzi family, bitter rivals of the Medici. Cosimo de' Medici was the first Medici family member to essentially control the city from behind the scenes. Although the city was technically a democracy of sorts, his power came from a vast patronage network along with his alliance to the new immigrants, the gente nuova (new people). The fact that the Medici were bankers to the pope also contributed to their rise. Cosimo was succeeded by his son Piero, who was shortly thereafter succeeded by Cosimo's grandson, Lorenzo in 1469. Lorenzo was a great patron of the arts, commissioning works by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Botticelli. Lorenzo was also an accomplished musician and brought some of the most famous composers and singers of the day to Florence, including Alexander Agricola, Johannes Ghiselin, and Heinrich Isaac. By contemporary Florentines (and since), he was known as "Lorenzo the Magnificent" (Lorenzo il Magnifico).
Following the death of Lorenzo de' Medici in 1492, he was succeeded by his son Piero II. When the French king Charles VIII invaded northern Italy, Piero II chose to resist his army. But when he realized the size of the French army at the gates of Pisa, he had to accept the humiliating conditions of the French king. These made the Florentines rebel and they expelled Piero II. With his exile in 1494, the first period of Medici rule ended with the restoration of a republican government.
During this period, the Dominican monk Girolamo Savonarola had become prior of the San Marco monastery in 1490. He was famed for his penitential sermons, lambasting what he viewed as widespread immorality and attachment to material riches. He blamed the exile of the Medicis as the work of God, punishing them for their decadence. He seized the opportunity to carry through political reforms leading to a more democratic rule. But when Savonarola publicly accused Pope Alexander VI of corruption, he was banned from speaking in public. When he broke this ban, he was excommunicated. The Florentines, tired of his extreme teachings, turned against him and arrested him. He was convicted as a heretic and burned at the stake on the Piazza della Signoria on 23 May 1498.
A second individual of unusual insight was Niccolò Machiavelli, whose prescriptions for Florence's regeneration under strong leadership have often been seen as a legitimization of political expediency and even malpractice. Commissioned by the Medici, Machiavelli also wrote the Florentine Histories, the history of the city. Florentines drove out the Medici for a second time and re-established a republic on May 16, 1527. Restored twice with the support of both Emperor and Pope, the Medici in 1537 became hereditary dukes of Florence, and in 1569 Grand Dukes of Tuscany, ruling for two centuries. In all Tuscany, only the Republic of Lucca (later a Duchy) and the Principality of Piombino were independent from Florence.
The extinction of the Medici dynasty and the accession in 1737 of Francis Stephen, duke of Lorraine and husband of Maria Theresa of Austria, led to Tuscany's temporary inclusion in the territories of the Austrian crown. It became a secundogeniture of the Habsburg-Lorraine dynasty, who were deposed for the Bourbon-Parma in 1801 (themselves deposed in 1807), restored at the Congress of Vienna; Tuscany became a province of the United Kingdom of Italy in 1861.
Florence replaced Turin as Italy's capital in 1865, and in an effort to modernise the city, the old market in the Piazza del Mercato Vecchio and many medieval houses were pulled down and replaced by a more formal street plan with newer houses. The Piazza (first renamed Piazza Vittorio Emmanuele II, then Piazza della Repubblica, the present name) was significantly widened and a large triumphal arc was constructed at the west end. This development is largely regarded as a disaster and was only prevented from continuing by the efforts of several British and American people living in the city. A museum recording the destruction stands nearby today. The country's first capital city was superseded by Rome six years later, after the withdrawal of the French troops made its addition to the kingdom possible. A very important role is played in these years by the famous café of Florence Giubbe Rosse from its foundation until the present day. "Non fu giammai così nobil giardino/ come a quel tempo egli è Mercato Vecchio / che l'occhio e il gusto pasce al fiorentino", claimed Antonio Pucci in the 14th century, "Mercato Vecchio nel mondo è alimento./ A ogni altra piazza il prego serra". The area had decayed from its original medieval splendor. After doubling during the 19th century, Florence's population tripled in the 20th with the growth of tourism, trade, financial services and industry.
During World War II the city experienced a year-long German occupation (1943–1944) and was declared an open city. The Allied soldiers who died driving the Germans from Tuscany are buried in cemeteries outside the city (Americans about 9 kilometres (6 mi) south of the city, British and Commonwealth soldiers a few kilometers east of the center on the right bank of the Arno). In 1944, the retreating Germans decided to blow up the bridges along the Arno linking the district of Oltrarno to the rest of the city, thus making it difficult for the British troops to cross. However, at the last moment Hitler ordered that the Ponte Vecchio must not be blown up, as it was too beautiful. Instead an equally historic area of streets directly to the south of the bridge, including part of the Corridoio Vasariano, was destroyed using mines. Since then the bridges have been restored exactly to their original forms using as many of the remaining materials as possible, but the buildings surrounding the Ponte Vecchio have been rebuilt in a style combining the old with modern design. Shortly before leaving Florence, as they knew that they would soon have to retreat the Germans murdered many freedom fighters and political opponents publicly, in streets and squares including Piazza Santo Spirito.
In November 1966, the Arno flooded parts of the center, damaging many art treasures. There was no warning from the authorities who knew the flood was coming, except a phone call to the jewelers on the Ponte Vecchio. Around the city there are tiny placards on the walls noting where the flood waters reached at their highest point.
Florence lies in a sort of basin among the Senese Clavey Hills, particularly the hills of Careggi, Fiesole, Settignano, Arcetri, Poggio Imperiale and Bellosguardo. The Arno river and three other minor rivers flow through it.
Florence is usually said to have a Mediterranean climate. It has hot, humid summers with little rainfall and cool, damp winters. Due to being surrounded by hills in a river valley, Florence can be hot and humid from June to August. Because of the lack of a prevailing wind, summer temperatures are higher than along the coast. The rain which does fall in summer is convectional. Relief rainfall dominates in the winter, with some snow. The highest officially recorded temperature was 42.6°C in July 26, 1983 and the lowest was -23.2°C on January 12, 1985.
Florence is known as the “cradle of Renaissance” (la culla del Rinascimento) for its monuments, churches and buildings. The best-known site and crowning architectural jewel of Florence is the domed cathedral of the city, Santa Maria del Fiore, known as The Duomo. The magnificent dome was built by Filippo Brunelleschi. The nearby Campanile (partly designed by Giotto) and the Baptistery buildings are also highlights. Both the dome itself and the campanile are open to tourists and offer excellent views; The dome, 600 years after its completion, is still the largest dome built in brick and mortar in the world.
In 1982, the historic center of Florence (Italian: centro storico di Firenze) was declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO for the importance of its cultural heritages. The center of the city is contained in medieval walls that were built in the 14th century to defend the city after it became famous and important for its economic growth.
At the heart of the city in Piazza della Signoria is Bartolomeo Ammanati's Fountain of Neptune (1563–1565), which is a masterpiece of marble sculpture at the terminus of a still functioning Roman aqueduct.
The Arno River, which cuts through the old part of the city, is as much a character in Florentine history as many of the people who lived there. Historically, the locals have had a love-hate relationship with the Arno — which alternated from nourishing the city with commerce, and destroying it by flood.
One of the bridges in particular stands out as being unique — The Ponte Vecchio (Old Bridge), whose most striking feature is the multitude of shops built upon its edges, held up by stilts. The bridge also carries Vasari's elevated corridor linking the Uffizi to the Medici residence (Palazzo Pitti). Although the original bridge was constructed by the Etruscans, the current bridge was rebuilt in the 14th century It is the only bridge in the city to have survived World War II intact.
The church of San Lorenzo contains the Medici Chapel, the mausoleum of the Medici family – the most powerful family in Florence from the 15th to the 18th century. Nearby is the Uffizi Gallery, one of the finest art museums in the world – founded on a large bequest from the last member of the Medici family.
The Uffizi itself is located at the corner of Piazza della Signoria, a site important for being the centre of Florence civil life and government for centuries (Signoria Palace is still home of the community government): the Loggia dei Lanzi was the set of all the public ceremonies of the republican government. Many well known episodes of history of art and political changes were staged here, such as:
In 1301, Dante was sent into Exile from here (a plaque on one of the walls of the Uffizi commemorates the event).
26 April 1478 Jacopo de'Pazzi and his retainers try to raise the city against the Medici after the plot known as The congiura dei Pazzi (The Pazzi conspiracy) who murdered Giuliano di Piero de' Medici and wounded his brother Lorenzo; the Florentines seized and hanged all the members of the plot that could be apprehended from the windows of the Palace.
In 1497, it was the location of the Bonfire of the Vanities instigated by the Dominican friar and preacher Girolamo Savonarola
On the 23 May 1498 the same Savonarola and two followers were hanged and burnt at the stake (a round plate in the ground commemorates the very spot where he was hanged)
In 1504, Michelangelo's David (now replaced by a reproduction as the original was moved indoors to the Accademia dell'Arte del Disegno), was installed in front of the Palazzo della Signoria (also known as Palazzo Vecchio).
It is still the setting for a number of statues by other sculptors such as Donatello, Giambologna, Ammannati and Cellini, although some have been replaced with copies to preserve the priceless originals.
In addition to the Uffizi, Florence has other world-class museums. The Bargello concentrates on sculpture, containing many priceless works of art created by such sculptors as Donatello, Giambologna, and Michelangelo. The Accademia dell'Arte del Disegno (often simply called the Accademia) collection's highlights are Michelangelo's David and his unfinished Slaves.
Across the Arno is the huge Palazzo Pitti containing part of the Medici family's former private collection. In addition to the Medici collection the palace's galleries contain a large number of Renaissance works, including several by Raphael and Titian as well as a large collection of modern art, costumes, cattiages, and porcelain. Adjoining the Palace are the Boboli Gardens, elaborately landscaped and with many interesting sculptures.
The Santa Croce basilica, originally a Franciscan foundation, contains the monumental tombs of Galileo, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Dante (actually a cenotaph), and many other notables.
Other important basilicas and churches in Florence include Santa Maria Novella, San Lorenzo, Santo Spirito and the Orsanmichele, and the Tempio Maggiore Great Synagogue of Florence.
Florence has been the setting for numerous works of fiction and movies, including the novels and associated films Hannibal, Tea with Mussolini and A Room with a View.
The population of the city proper is 365,744 (2008-11-30), while Eurostat estimates that 696,767 people live in the urban area of Florence. The Metropolitan Area of Florence, Prato, and Pistoia, constituted in 2000 over an area of roughly 4,800 square kilometers, is home to 1.5 million people. Within Florence proper, 46.8% of the population was male in 2007 and 53.2% were female. Minors (children aged 18 and younger) totalled 14.10 percent of the population compared to pensioners, who numbered 25.95 percent. This compares with the Italian average of 18.06 percent (minors) and 19.94 percent (pensioners). The average age of Florence resident is 49 compared to the Italian average of 42. In the five years between 2002 and 2007, the population of Florence grew by 3.22 percent, while Italy as a whole grew by 3.56 percent. The current birth rate of Florence is 7.66 births per 1,000 inhabitants compared to the Italian average of 9.45 births.
As of 2006, 90.45% of the population was Italian. An estimated 60,000 Chinese live in the city. The largest immigrant group came from other European countries (mostly from Albania and Romania): 3.52%, East Asia (mostly Chinese and Filipino): 2.17%, the Americas: 1.41%, and North Africa (mostly Moroccan): 0.9%.
Tourism is the most significant industry within the centre of Florence. On any given day between April and October, the local population is greatly outnumbered by tourists from all over the world. The Uffizi and Accademia museums are regularly sold out of tickets, and large groups regularly fill the basilicas of Santa Croce and Santa Maria Novella, both of which charge for entry.
Florence being historically the first home of Italian fashion (the 1951–1953 soirées held by Giovanni Battista Giorgini are generally regarded as the birth of the Italian school as opposed to french haute couture) is also home to the legendary Italian fashion establishment Salvatore Ferragamo, notable as one of the oldest and most famous Italian fashion houses. Many others, most of them now located in Milan, were founded in Florence. Gucci, Prada, Roberto Cavalli, and Chanel have large offices and stores in Florence or its outskirts.
Food and wine have long been an important staple of the economy. Florence is the most important city in Tuscany, one of the great wine-growing regions in the world. The Chianti region is just south of the city, and its Sangiovese grapes figure prominently not only in its Chianti Classico wines but also in many of the more recently developed Supertuscan blends. Within twenty miles (32 km) to the west is the Carmignano area, also home to flavorful sangiovese-based reds. The celebrated Chianti Rufina district, geographically and historically separated from the main Chianti region, is also few miles east of Florence. More recently, the Bolgheri region (about 100 miles/200 kilometres southwest of Florence) has become celebrated for its "Super Tuscan" reds such as Sassicaia and Ornellaia.
Florence keeps an exceptional artistic heritage. Cimabue and Giotto, the fathers of Italian painting, lived in Florence as well as Arnolfo and Andrea Pisano, renewers of architecture and sculpture; Brunelleschi, Donatello and Masaccio forefathers of the Renaissance, Ghiberti and the Della Robbias, Filippo Lippi and Angelico; Botticelli, Paolo Uccello and the universal genius of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.
Their work, together with those of many other generations of artists up to the artists of our century, are gathered in the several museums of the town: the Uffizi, the most selected gallery in the world, the Palatina gallery with the paintings of the "Golden Ages".
The Bargello Tower with the sculptures of the Renaissance, the museum of San Marco with Angelico's works, the Academy, the chapels of the Medicis, Buonarroti' s house with the sculptures of Michelangelo, the following museums: Bardini, Horne, Stibbert, Romano, Corsini, The Gallery of Modern Art, The museum of the Opera del Duomo, the museum of Silverware and the museum of Precious Stones.
Great monuments are the landmarks of Florentine artistic culture: the Baptistry with its mosaics; the Cathedral with its sculptures, the medieval churches with bands of frescoes; public as well as private palaces: Palazzo Vecchio, Palazzo Pitti, Palazzo Medici Riccardi, Palazzo Davanzati; monasteries, cloisters, refectories; the "Certosa". In the archeological museum includes documents of Etruscan civilization. In fact the city is so rich in art that some first time visitors experience the Stendhal syndrome as they encounter its art for the first time.
Florentine (fiorentino), spoken by inhabitants of Florence and its environs, is a Tuscan dialect and an immediate parent language to modern Italian. (Many linguists and scholars of Dante, Boccaccio, and Petrarch consider standard Italian to be, in fact, modern Florentine.)
Its vocabulary and pronunciation are largely identical to standard Italian, though the hard c between two vowels (as in ducato) is pronounced as a fricative [h], similar to an English h. This gives Florentines a distinctive and highly recognizable accent (the so-called gorgia toscana). Other traits include using a form of the subjunctive mood last commonly used in medieval times, a frequent usage of the modern subjunctive instead of the present of standard Italian, and a reduced pronunciation of the definite article, [i] instead of "il".
Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet. A suspicious spot was found on the Cat Scan that may explain why she was having so many seizures, headache, and brain swelling. It needs to be further evaluated, which she has an appointment with her Neurologist to do. The injuries inflicted by the policeman are severe, but no bones were broken. The bruising is massive and was documented with photographs and medical records by us and the Olympia ER staff. On Saturday my husband took Christina to the local Westport Fire Station to meet with the ambulance crew. Christina is well-known in Westport and everyone on the ambulance crews knows her medical history and has taken care of her dozens of times since we moved here after her coma. They call her their 'miracle girl' and always tell her how much they enjoy her and her always cooperative and happy nature, regardless of how much pain or distress she may be in at any time. The ambulance crew was devastated to learn that Christina was abused by the doctor, nurses, aids, and policeman at the emergency room they took her to on Thursday evening. They documented everything and reported the situation to the local city police department. The Westport police came and was equally upset. He took statements and then called a County Sheriff to the fire station. The Sheriff also took statements and made a report. On Monday (today), 3/15/2010, Christina was seen and evaluated by her family physician, Dr. Jackson, her foot surgeon, Dr. Tronvig, and her Chiropractor, Dr. Failor. They are all shocked and disgusted at what they saw. They all know Christina to be a sweet, trusting, loving child who has survived unimaginable odds and is always happy and thankful. Like us, they cannot fathom how this horrible abuse, neglect, and trauma could have happened to her. Why would anyone want to hurt her this way? Tomorrow she has an appointment to see Dr. Miller, her local Neurologist in Aberdeen. He will do his evaluation of the damages and follow-up on her seizure and headache conditions. He will determine if she needs to begin phychological counseling, either as an out-patient or as an in-patient, because Christina is so severely traumatized now. Coming out of the coma knowing that her doctors fought with us to try to get us to sign papers to allow them to euthanize her and harvest anything viable when she was in her locked-in coma, hearing everything but unable to respond was bad enough, but this added to that is simply too much. She has an appointment to see Dr. Wilensky at Harborview Epileptic Center on March 26, 2010 for further evaluation. I want to stress that Christina was following her doctor's orders to call the ambulance each time she went to the ER while my husband and I were away. Her doctors called her each day, several times a day, to ask how she was doing and to supervise her care while she was home alone. At no time was she seeking 'drugs', as the ER doctor flattly told her and labeled her. At no time did she resist the officer or do anything to warrent him putting his hands on her or drag her feet under the wheelchair. Dr. Wilensky called a prescription of pain pills into the pharmacy for her on Friday to take for her head pain, but she declined to pick up the prescription because she does not like to take pain pills as they make her very sick to her stomach and alter her thinking and feelings. She may take what is prescribed to her at an ER for pain while she is there, but does not want to take it at home. Her foot doctor says that her feet will heal, but her foot surgery recovery has been set back by at least another two weeks due to the damages the officer caused her. The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again. When my husband or I take her to an ER, we will make the long drive to Olympia and never let her out of our sight for even a minute. We retained an attorney today to handle this case against the Gray's Harbor Hospital and staff and the Aberdeen Police Dept. and officer. What amazing timing. We are scheduled to give our first depositions this week in Seattle in our lawsuit against Eli Lilly who makes Zyprexa, which put Christina into her coma in 2004. Attached are some photos of Christina's bruises taken on Saturday. If you haven't read the story of her coma yet, you can find it at: pekingeseshihtzu.wordpress.com/christina-nichole%e2%80%99...
Established in 1922, the Belchertown State School for the Feeble Minded was opened as an institution for the mentally "defective".
"Residents of Belchertown State School (occasionally referred to in the press as “inmates”) were crowded into wards; privacy was totally lacking".
"In many buildings, the air was characteristically foul with the smell of urine, feces and body odors".
“Many [residents], especially those who are less capable and tend to be incontinent, are given inadequate showers in large groups or are showered quickly one after another with one attendant undressing residents, another attendant or a more capable resident in the shower giving them a summary washing and usually a more proficient resident giving them an equally insuffient drying. Multiply-handicapped residents are placed on a porcelain slab and sprayed with a garden hose”.
“Parts of the living quarters at Belchertown are in violation of the State Sanitary Code. Because of lack of screens, flies have infested several buildings to the extent that fly larvae (maggots) have been found nested in a sore of a resident's ear”.
“Cockroaches have been chronic, ever present and in the recent past, have overrun several buildings to the extent of crawling over immobile patients.”
“Cacophony was everywhere. In such brutal environments, made worse by overcrowding, grunts, groans, crying, shrieking, screaming, and constantly operating television sets combined to produce noise that reached harmful decibel levels. Was it any wonder that more than seventy percent of the residents had hearing disabilities?"
“Due to lack of screening, residents have fallen 15-20 feet over second story railings to the ground”.
“As to food, until recently, the entire meal was served to many residents mixed in a single metal bowl".
“None of the physicians on the staff, save one, were licensed to practice medicine except in the Massachusetts state mental hospitals and Massachusetts state schools. To underscore the seriousness of this matter, practicing lawyers emphasized that for any unlicensed physician to dispense even an aspirin just outside an entrance to an institution operated by the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health could invite a malpractice lawsuit".
- All quotes from "Crimes Against Humanity: A Historical Perspective" by Benjamin Ricci (2004), the man behind the class action lawsuit that finally closed the Belchertown State School in 1992.
Schirrous cord is an infection in the distal part of the cord that attaches the testicle to the abdominal cavity, which is left behind. This can result in the formation of a closed abscess.
Schirrous cord is the second most common complication seen when castrating horses, the first being excessive hemorrhage.
Although castration is the most common Equine Field surgery it is also the number one reason for malpractice suits in the Equine industry.

From the Solidarity with Ferguson rally in Madison, Wisconsin. 09/07/2014
Dorothy Krause is a progressive-minded Supervisor at Dane County Board of Supervisors and Common Council Alder at City of Fitchburg.
Here is a link to the petition:
www.change.org/p/joe-parisi-we-want-solidarity-with-fergu...
Here are the demands:
1. Diversity training - All common council members and All law enforcement departments within Dane county must participate in an ongoing, diversity training program approved by a diverse group of council members, officers and civilian experts on issues of diversity and policing such as Gloria Ladson-Billings, Seema Kapani and David Couper.
•All law enforcement departments within Dane county must commission an annual poll to determine the success and needs for diversity training.
•The poll must be commissioned through an independent non-law enforcement institution approved by civilian experts on issues of diversity and policing. Examples of such civilians would be Gloria Ladson-Billings, Seema Kapani and David Couper.
2. Sensitivity training - All common council and all law enforcement departments within Dane county must participate in an ongoing sensitivity training program approved by a diverse group of officers and civilian experts on issues of diversity and policing. Examples of such civilians would be Gloria Ladson-Billings, Seema Kapani and David Couper.
•All law enforcement departments within Dane county must commission an annual poll to determine the success and needs for sensitivity training.
•The poll must be commissioned through an independent non-law enforcement institution approved by civilian experts on issues of diversity and policing. Examples of such civilians would be Gloria Ladson-Billings, Seema Kapani and David Couper.
•All law enforcement departments within Dane county must meet with Community Solutions Teams in each district to determine a plan for developing greater and more honest communication between themselves and their respective communities, particularly the communities of color.
3. Racially diverse employees who live in the city they police -All law enforcement departments within Dane county must strive to employ people whose race reflect that of the community they police most often and hire employees who are live or are willing to live in the city they police.
4. Independent CRIMINAL and INTERNAL investigations -for all injuries inflicted by law enforcement officers within Dane County to be performed by an agency that does not employ anyone from the department of the officer involved. It has become clear that police cannot be “objective” in their pursuit of “reasonableness.” Bias lays waste to justice. Let's prevent it as best we can.
•The race of the investigative leads must equally represent the race of those involved in the incident.
•The names of the investigative leads must be revealed to the public within 48 hours of the incident.
•Photographs of the civilians that are released to the media must be offered and approved by the civilian's next of kin.
•Civilians must have the right to redact information from police records before they are made public.
•If a department breaks this law and investigates itself as we are seeing in Milwaukee with the Dontre Hamilton investigation, the chief of police must be reprimanded with 6 months minimum jail time for misuse of confidential information and tampering with evidence.
5. Front facing cameras for all law enforcement officers - an investment in having the advantage of complete video footage of officer-involved incidents would save lives and money and it would restore some trust in the police.
•Everyone would think twice about behaving inappropriately, trust in that transparency would be inevitable and money in that far fewer days and hours would be spent piecing together multiple takes of a single incident. Cameras must not be turned off at the officer's discretion. To do so is tampering with and attempting to conceal evidence.
•The footage must not be altered in any way.
•Civilian and officer witnesses must be permitted to view the exact same footage, no more or less than one another, in the company of their attorneys, before giving their statements to anyone.
•Civilians must be allowed to redact elements of footage that if released to the public would cause further trauma or damage to their lives.
6. The District Attorney must not review or make the determination in criminal investigations. In the history of Wisconsin policing, there has been only 1 case when a D.A. charged an officer involved in a fatality. The D.A., who cannot win re-election if s/he loses the law enforcement vote and who depends on good rapport with officers to try and win cases, must no longer make the final determination in the criminal investigations of officers involved in potentially criminal activity - nor should they prosecute. To date, there is no greater conflict of interest built into the infrastructure of law enforcement.
•A diverse grand jury must make the determination for criminal investigations of officer-involved excessive force and fatal incidents.
•A special prosecutor must prosecute in these cases and be appointed by the grand jury or an ombudsman
7. The chief or sheriff must not review or make the determination in officer-involved injury or death investigation.
•In the past 129 years, not a single Wisconsin police chief, sheriff or police and fire commission has found an officer in the wrong for excessive force or taking a life. This proves that chiefs and sheriffs will not or feel that cannot find one of their own officers guilty of excessive force.
•All officer-involved injury and death investigations must be reviewed and determined by a diverse grand jury
8. If an officer is found to have used excessive force, they must be fired.
9. All law enforcement departments within Dane county must terminate every officer named in settled lawsuits - This seems like common sense, but the fact is that officers that cost millions in lawsuits are routinely allowed to keep their jobs. If a jurisdiction chooses to settle a lawsuit against an officer for excessive force, civil rights violations, or other abuses of power, the department must terminate the officer and the officer will be placed on the National Police Offender Registry.
10. Firing vs Resigning - As with the military, officers who are charged internally with policy violations that would have them fired should have to go before their commission and be fired. A firing and a resignation look different on a job or gun owner application, as they should. The former West Allis officer who went on to be a security guard before he killed two woman and put them in suitcases is one example of why officers must be held fully accountable, on paper, for their actions.
11. Early Warning System: There is no worse time and place for a chief or sheriff to find that they have a bigot or loose canon in their department than at the scene of an officer-involved injury or death. The development of early warning systems for all law enforcement departments within Dane county that tracks all complaints made against police officers and flags destructive patterns is needed. These systems should be reviewed by the police and fire commission.
12. MDC Screening: As we learned from Rodney King's beating and the 2012 forced resignation of former Madison Police Officer Heimsness, it is essential for all police communication systems for all law enforcement departments within Dane county to be screened.
13. Screening for drugs and mental fitness: All law enforcement departments within Dane county must conduct random drug and mental fitness screening. The program used for screening for and supporting mental fitness must be developed by an impartial institution. For example: "Force Science" is is not an impartial institution. The UW Center For Investigating Healthy Minds is.
14. STATS: All law enforcement departments within Dane countymust report to the FBI's UCR (uniform crime reporting) program for more accurate data. Additionally, they must release all statistics involving their employees and complaints made against them for all injuries afflicted on civilians to a database housed by an independent location that is easily accessible to the public.
15. National Police Offender Registry: All law enforcement officers within Dane county that violate the public’s trust should not be treated differently than sex offenders. "If an officer is found to have used excessive force, violated a citizen’s civil rights, or abused the power of their office, they should be added to the registry and be barred from holding a law enforcement related position for life. " - Justin King
16. No death penalty by WI Police: Fatal shooting is too often employed in circumstances when public safety could have been secured with far less drastic measures. All law enforcement departments within Dane county must commit to researching and developing non-deadly and non-injurious methods for stopping a threat, to codifying the precedence of these methods in procedural policy, and to employing them in practice.
17. Shifts for law enforcement employees with the sole purpose of decompressing and restoration: Traumatic events occur in the everyday lives of officers. It would benefit everyone if the resulting trauma were taken seriously. When an officer commits a crime, we often hear from his/her co-workers that "we saw no signs." All law enforcement departments within Dane county must be required to go before psychologists on a regular basis in order that those signs be detected. Additionally, officers should have shifts that include scientifically-supported decompression and restoration techniques. UW Center for Investigating Healthy Minds would be a good resource for compiling these techniques.
18. Rate Leadership: All law officers with in Dane county must be polled anonymously by an independent and impartial group to gauge whether their needs are being met by their leadership and whether or not they feel comfortable upholding justice at the expense of their department's reputation.
19. Dash cameras must not be turned off at the officer's discretion.
20. Two-way radios should stay on throughout officer interactions with civilians for backup evidence.
21. Ask for help when needed: Develop an interface through which the police can solicit community assistance and collaboration, ideas and programs that foster better communication, transparency and relations with the community.
22. Stop accepting and maintaining military equipment. Dane County, there is no war but the one you are waging with yourselves!
23. Re-examination of Graham Vs Connor and the Objective Reasonableness Standard: In the past 129 years, not a single police chief or sheriff has found an officer in the wrong for taking a life. That means in 129 years, WI officers have never made a mistake when taking a life. Impossible. This statistic represents a systemic failure of oversight and malpractice on the part of those supposedly keeping watch. How does this happen?
The Objective Reasonableness Standard is used as a guide for deadly force policy by a chief or sheriff to determine whether or not the amount of force used against a civilian was reasonable. Chiefs and sheriffs look to past cases to determine what a "reasonable officer" would have done and so the criteria for such a decision can essentially be determined after the fact.
The highly flexible ways in which the Standard has been interpreted have only served the interests of the police force and, in fact, no officer has been found to have taken a “wrong" action in any of these investigations by a chief, sheriff or commission. This irresponsible looseness is legally, systemically supported at every level of law enforcement, from the statutes to the rulings of District Attorneys. This fact serves virtually to eliminate accountability in policing and, placing little value on the lives of civilians.
Though serving our community poorly, the looseness of this Standard serves well the elected officials who make determinations on controversial Officer-involved injuries and fatalities etc. in that sheriffs and D.A.s can stay elected and appointed chiefs are allowed to keep their records of “perfection” intact.
The general public has no idea how little value this standard places on all of our lives. Currently, if an officer has a civilian within reach of their weapon, s/he can at any time claim the civilian went for his/her gun, that s/he feared for his/her life, and that s/he therefore shot to kill.
•Because all of this is true, Dane County and its cities must commission a poll through an independent institution approved by impartial civilian experts on deadly force such as Michael Scott at the center of Problem Oriented Policing and former Madison Chief of Police, David Couper. The purpose of this poll would be to determine how comfortable Dane County civilians are with both current and historical applications of the Objective Reasonableness Standard, use of force policies and Wisconsin's 129 year record of perfect policing in all officer-involved fatalities.
•The Objective Reasonableness Standard allows officers to be conveniently selective as to what information coming from the suspect or witnesses can be interpreted as "fact". This flexibility allows officers to get away with intentional recklessness and negligence as we saw in the in the 1989 case of Graham vs Connor, the 2012 shooting death of unarmed Madison resident Paul Heenan, the 2004 shooting death of handcuffed Kenosha resident, Michael Bell and the 2012 suffocation death of Milwaukee resident, Derek Williams.
•The Objective Reasonableness Standard must be re-examined and changed to better protect civilians and to place value where it belongs: on human life.
•The exoneration of an officer must be supported by proof of prior and current mental fitness and drug screening of that police officer.
Without an agreed upon definition of justice, there can be no peace. These changes represent a justice that protects all human life no matter what color we are or badge we wear. I ask that you to take this stand and act as if the lives of all who live in Dane County are invaluable and irreplaceable.

Governor of Florida Jeb Bush at TurboCam, Barrington, New Hampshire on August 7th by Michael Vadon Part 1 of 4
CONCORD, N.H. —Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
At a town hall Friday night in Barrington, Bush spoke about how he won't campaign with anger and instead spoke a lot about policy.
He started his day at Brown's Lobster Pound in Seabrook. After greeting voters -- trying a lobster roll -- Bush told reporters he plans to campaign hard on and off the debate stage between now and the primaries.
"I think I did fine (in the debate). I am who I am," Bush said.
He's declining to criticize his Republican rivals, including Donald Trump, who refused to pledge support to the party's eventual nominee. Instead, Bush says he's focused on sharing his record as governor with voters and letting people get to know who he is.
"So you take advantage of opportunities when you have them, speak from your heart," Bush said. "I don't view this debating as question of winning or losing. It's the cumulative effect of shaping peoples opinion of who you are over the long haul."
Bush said Democrats' attacks against him show he is the candidate they fear most.
"Let me think why they would be. Because maybe it's because they consider me the biggest threat," Bush said.

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007.
Bush is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush, grandson of the late Prescott Sheldon Bush, American Banker and United States Senator from Connecticut. He grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Bush is a candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election.
Clement Leroy "Butch" Otter (born May 3, 1942) is the 32nd and current Governor of Idaho since January 2007 and is a member of the Republican Party. Otter previously represented the state's First Congressional District.
Otter was the longest serving Lieutenant Governor of Idaho, holding office from 1987–2001. He is the first Idahoan since statehood to win elections as both a United States Representative and as governor. He is the third Catholic to serve as governor of Idaho and the first to win election since James H. Hawley in 1910.
Butch Otter was born into a small family of limited means. His father was a journeyman electrician and the family lived in many rural locations in the Midwest & Western U.S. during his youth, attending 15 different schools. He graduated from St. Teresa's Academy (now Bishop Kelly High School) in Boise in 1962.
Otter was 20 when he graduated from high school– a childhood accident involving gasoline badly burned his younger brother and forced Otter to take a year off. Otter worked throughout high school as a janitor, theater ticket taker, and lawn boy. "My dad graduated from high school. My expectations weren’t built beyond being a good electrician or carpenter." Otter briefly attended St. Martin's Abbey in Lacey, Washington, with an aim to becoming a priest. He attended the school primarily because of his father's opinion that "unless you were going to be a priest, you didn't need to go beyond high school."
Deciding against the priesthood, Otter returned to Idaho and attended Boise Junior College, then earned his B.A. in political science from the College of Idaho in 1967. He was the only member of his family to graduate from college, and made the dean's list in his last term. He served in the Idaho Army National Guard's 116th Armored Cavalry from 1968–73. He received specialized training at Fort Knox. His business experience includes 30 years with Simplot International, a leading agribusiness corporation. He started at a low-level position and eventually rose to the company's presidency.
His first bid for elective office was in 1972 when he was elected a member of the Idaho State House of Representatives from Canyon County. He was re-elected in 1974 and 1976.1978 gubernatorial election
See also: Idaho gubernatorial election, 1978
In 1977, incumbent Democrat Governor Cecil Andrus was appointed to become U.S. Secretary of Interior under President Jimmy Carter. LG John Evans, a Democrat, then became Governor after Andrus resigned. Otter ran for Governor of Idaho in 1978. In the Republican primary, Otter lost and ranked third with 26% of the vote. Allan Larsen won the nomination with 29% of the vote.
State politics
After losing the gubernatorial election, he was on the Idaho Republican Party Central Committee and was Chairman of the Canyon County Republican Party.
Reagan administration
After Republican Ronald Reagan was elected in 1980, he appointed Otter to the administration's Task Force on International Private Enterprise, the World Bank's Agricultural Advisory Committee, and the Center for International Private Enterprise.
Lieutenant Governor of Idaho (1986–1994)
In 1986, Otter returned to politics and was elected Lieutenant Governor of Idaho. He was reelected in 1990, 1994, and 1998. He served under three different governors, Democrat Cecil Andrus, and Republicans Phil Batt and Dirk Kempthorne. In 1991, when the Idaho Senate was evenly divided between 21 Republicans and 21 Democrats, Otter's tie-breaking votes kept the body under GOP control. Otter left the post midway through his fourth term in 2001 to take his Congressional seat. He is the longest-serving lieutenant governor in Idaho history.
U.S. House of Representatives (1994–2007)
Elections
U.S. Congresswoman Helen Chenoweth-Hage of Idaho's First Congressional District had promised to serve only three terms in the House when first elected in the Republican wave of 1994, and kept that pledge in 2000 even after calling term limits bad policy. Otter entered the Republican primary, and immediately became the favorite due to his name recognition as lieutenant governor. He won handily, and breezed to victory in November. He was re-elected in 2002 and 2004 with no substantive opposition.
Tenure
In Congress, Otter was largely conservative with a slight libertarian streak, as reflected in his opposition to the Patriot Act. He was one of three Republicans (along with Bob Ney of Ohio and Ron Paul of Texas) to vote against the act in 2001. He has since stated that "much of the USA PATRIOT Act is needed to help protect us in a dangerous age of stateless zealots and mindless violence". Otter was also very critical of the Bush Administration's terrorist surveillance program concerning communications from within the United States to those outside the United States. He served as a deputy majority whip for most of his time in Congress.
Otter is pro-life and has voted to ban federal funding of abortions and opposes partial-birth abortions. He also supports parental consent laws for minors who seek an abortion. He supports a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between "one man and one woman." He has voted for establishing a nationwide AMBER alert system for missing children. He has been a strong advocate for second amendment rights and opposes federal restrictions on gun sales.[3]
On economic issues, he has voted for a 2001 bankruptcy overhaul requiring partial debt repayment. He supports a balanced budget amendment to the US constitution and supports broad based tax cuts including eliminating the estate and marriage tax. He has voted to reduce the marriage tax by $399B over 10 years. He has supported expanding free trade agreements with nations such as Singapore and Chile. He has also voted for medical malpractice and tort reform. He has voted to allow importation of prescription drugs and has supported small business associations to reduce health insurance costs via collaborative efforts. Otter has voted to end offshore tax havens and promote tax credits for small businesses. He has voted to raise 401(k) limits & making pension plans more portable.
He has voted to build a fence along the Mexican border and has opposed granting amnesty to illegal aliens.
Otter has voted against allowing electronic surveillance without a warrant. He has supported military recruitment efforts on college campuses and has voted for adopting the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission. He opposes a time table for withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan.
He was elected to the leadership position of Assistant Majority Whip.

Governor of Idaho (2007–present)
2006 election
Main article: Idaho gubernatorial election, 2006
On December 15 Otter announced his candidacy for the gubernatorial seat in 2006. Otter won the May Republican primary with 70% of the vote, defeating three opponents.
In the general election, he faced Democrat Jerry Brady in the November 7 general election. Brady, the former publisher of The Post Register in Idaho Falls, had ran for governor in 2002, losing to incumbent Republican Governor Dirk Kempthorne. Otter was initially considered an overwhelming favorite, given his popularity and Idaho's strong Republican lean. However, the race was far closer than expected in the last weeks of the campaign. A poll conducted for the Idaho Statesman and Boise ABC affiliate KIVI showed Otter ahead of Brady by only a single point– a statistical dead heat. According to the Statesman, it was the first time in over a decade that the governor's race has not already been decided 10 days prior to the election. State Republican Party chairman Kirk Sullivan told the paper that the race appeared to be closer than normal because of a strong national trend against the Republicans. Otter pulled away in the final week, and won the election 53%–44%, the closest gubernatorial race since 1994.
First term
Otter has recommended an increase in Idaho state educational funding by $1.36 billion as well as expanding needs-based scholarships for college-bound students. Otter supports expanding offshore oil drilling and supports tax incentives for development of alternative fuels. He has stated that the US should set a goal of 25% renewable energy by 2025.
On January 11, 2007, Otter announced his support for a "gray wolf kill," in which all but 100 of Idaho's recently-recovered population would be eradicated, pending the forthcoming U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service removal of the wolves' federal protections under the Endangered Species Act. Otter even remarked that he would be first in line to purchase a tag to kill one of the animals.This position drew criticism from many Western environmental and animal advocate groups, including Priscilla Feral, president of Friends of Animals who called for a boycott of potatoes from Idaho.
2010 election
Main article: Idaho gubernatorial election, 2010
In the Republican primary, he had five opponents file against him. He won re-nomination with just 55% of the vote. In the general election, he defeated Democratic nominee Keith Allred 59%–33%.
Second term
He was sworn in to his second term on January 7, 2011. In the first State of the State in his second term, he proposed the elimination of teacher tenure, becoming one of the most aggressive governors in the country when it comes to education reform. The Stateline explained that the "Idaho plan is perhaps the most far-reaching effort to use teachers’ rights and performance as part of a bid to revamp a state’s entire educational process." Critics say that roughly 770 teaching positions would be eliminated and teacher contracts would have to be renegotiated every year, in which bargaining would cover only pay and benefits.[11] In March 2011, Otter signed two bills into law, one limits the ability of teachers to collectively bargain and eliminates tenure for new teachers. The other allows school districts to pay teachers based on their performance.[12]
In April 2011, Otter issued an executive order prohibiting Idaho state agencies from implementing the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Personal life
In 1964, Otter married Gay Simplot, daughter of J. R. Simplot. After 28 years of marriage, the couple amicably divorced in 1992. On August 18, 2006, Otter married his longtime girlfriend and former Miss Idaho USA Lori Easley in Meridian.
In August 1992 Otter was pulled over on Interstate 84 near Meridian, Idaho for suspicion of driving under the influence. He claimed the arresting officer observed him swerving as he was reaching for his cowboy hat, which had been blown off by the wind in his open car. Otter offered several explanations for failing the field sobriety test including: his stocking feet were stung by weeds and gravel, he had run eight miles and his knee hurt, he was hungry, and that he had soaked his chewing tobacco in Jack Daniels. A jury convicted Otter in March 1993. He was sentenced to 72 hours of community service and 16 hours at an alcohol treatment program.This incident allegedly forced Otter to abandon an anticipated run for governor in 1994 and instead seek re-election for lieutenant governor.
I'm surprised this came out ... I believe I actually lowered the gamma to make the surgery/stitches visible. Those stitches are so annoying. They call them dissolving, but I end up feeling them stick out of my gums with my tongue. I then compulsively tongue them and move them around. The last one fell out at some point during X-Day. I think it was day #3 or so, when I woke up, and within an hour realized, "Hey, these damn stitches aren't touching my tongue all the time anymore! Yay!"
Isn't this just a lovely picture? TMI?
BACKSTORY: Oral surgery #2! Radicular cyst #2 extracted! This is what happens when you have a shitty root canal, and have to have another root canal on the same tooth ~8 years later.
This surgery one caused me to swell more than the last one, but didn't hurt for as many days. In fact, 3 days later -- when we went to X-Day -- I stopped taking painkillers altogether, including iburpofen.
Either way, this surgery was much easier on me than the last one. By the time I got home to do my self-portraits with the last one, I was still bleeding. I wont be going back to that oral surgeon again!
The difference between oral surgeons on Kaiser-Permanente and those on Aetna is like the difference between witch doctors and Stephen Hawking.
ORAL SURGERY HINT: Go to Wendy's and order 10 large Frosties. These have medical value -- the coldness help ease the pain even more than painkillers. Ice is hard to manage, and makes a wet mess. This is like ice, but also solves the "liquid foods only" problem. And your body tends to want more fat when you are healing, right? Multi-use fast food FTW! Wendy's made me pull in because they couldn't make those many Frosties at the same time, haha.

20 October 2013. 12th St & 7th Ave, NYC.
St. Vincent's Hospital, opened in 1849, closed is doors after financial difficulty (or perhaps, financial malpractice) in 2010. A West Village neighborhood institution, the hospital was widely acclaimed for its commitment to community medicine, from treating victims of 19th century cholera epidemics to its pioneering care for HIV patients.
But many New Yorkers remember St. Vincent's especially for the role it played during the September 11th, 2001 attacks. It treated survivors, of course, but also served as a staging area for the many area health workers who sought to volunteer their services that day, And it became a focal point for families seeking information. I will never forget the wall outside its emergency room, covered with hastily photocopied photos and descriptions of loved ones, created as desperate pleas for information about the missing. For so many, of course, these flyers eventually became personal, tragic memorials.
12 years later, the hospital complex is being demolished to make way for luxury townhouses and apartments. An anonymous stencil on a construction barrier is about all that remains to remind us of what was once there.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.
Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.
Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.
Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.
"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.
One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.
"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.
"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.
After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.
"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.
Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.
Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."
Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.
"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.
Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.
"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.
Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.
Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.
"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.
Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

The incident
On November 29, 2009 at 3 am in the morning my 3 year old daughter, Imanae, spilt hot water on her wrist. My wife and I immediately took her to Doctors Hospital and Medical Center in Johar Town, Lahore. Although it was a very small burn, we chose to go to the hospital as our baby was in a lot of pain and we wanted her hurt to go away as quickly as possible.
At the hospital we were met by the emergency ward staff, who applied an ointment on her hand and gave her an injection to soothe the pain. When Imanae continued to cry because of the pain, the nurse called the doctor on duty. I noticed when he walked into the room that he had obviously been asleep and had just been woken up.
The doctor instructed the nurse to give Imanae another injection. Imanae however continued to cry. Fifteen minutes later, the sleepy doctor instructed the nurse to inject Imanae with the 3rd injection. All in all, 5mg of this anesthetic/pain killer was given. This was the moment when my little baby went silent and started losing consciousness. Just before she totally passed out, she started calling out my name and saying that everything was getting blurred and she couldn't see clearly. Little did I know that these were the last words my daughter would ever say.
I asked the doctor what was happening to my daughter, he assured me that she was FINE and was just SLEEPING, and left the room. I however wasn’t satisfied and checked Imanae myself to see if I could feel her breath or hear her heartbeat.
When I couldn't feel either of the two, I immediately informed the nurse. She called the doctor again who used a Heart Beat Monitor to examine Imanae. There was no reading on the monitor. I asked the doctor what that signified and he told me that since the monitor was intended for adult use, it could not detect my baby's hear beat. I WISH I HAD ASKED HIM THEN WHY HE WAS USING IT ON MY HELPLESS AND UNCONSCIOUS CHILD AND WASTING PRECIOUS TIME!!!
At this point, some other doctors present on duty at the hospital joined him as well. They connected Imanae to an ECG machine, but that too also only reported a straight line. My wife asked why the line was straight but the doctors did not reply. They kept on stating that she was fine and was just having some breathing problems. All the doctors present on the scene, started conferring between themselves as they continued to examine her. They continued to ignore our repeated pleas on what was happening to our daughter.
They then started giving her CPR and it was at this point I realised that my baby's life was in danger. The doctors however kept reassuring us that she was fine. They continued conferring between themselves and I was certain that something had gone horribly wrong. Another 20 or so minutes passed in this torture and confusion. They continued to reassure us that she was ok!! IF SHE WAS OK, WHY WAS THERE NO PULSE ON THE ECG...WHY WAS THERE NO HEARTBEAT...WHY WERE THEY GIVING HER CPR, IF SHE WAS OK.....WHY WHY!!!
Finally, one of the doctor told me that she was having difficulty breathing and because Doctors Hospital did NOT HAVE a baby Ventilator we should take her to some other hospital before her condition worsened. They suggested we take her either to Ittefaq hospital or to Fatima Memorial, or that we take her to Ward 23 of the Children's Hospital.
I asked them for an ambulance because she was connected to all kinds of machines, but they told me that the ambulance was not available. However, if we still wanted one...we would have to WAIT for half an hour!!! My baby was not breathing and they wanted me to wait for half an hour!!
I decided to take my dying Imanae in my own car and pleaded with them to give me a doctor to accompany us to Children's Hospital. I did not know what was wrong with her and wanted someone to come along and explain what exactly her condition was. I wanted a list of injections and other medicines given to her, to give to the doctors at Children's Hospital. I wanted a copy of her ECG report.....
Nothing was given......and a WARD boy asked to go along.
It took us 15 minutes to reach Children's Hospital.....where we were told that my 3 year old daughter...my only child...the light of my life...my reason for living...was DEAD!!
Apparently, I am not the only one who has had his life shattered by this hospital. There are several similar incidents where Doctors Hospital have dumped patients whose treatments they have botched, on to other hospitals.
One such incident that I came across was reported a few years ago in the Daily Times:
www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=2006\story_12-2-2006_pg3_7
With your help, I have discovered several other cases that strongly indicate malpractice and gross negligence by this hospital.
If you are a victim of Doctors Hospital or know of someone who suffered at their hands, please let us know so that we can put it forward and bring the culprits to justice.

Wrongful Death
Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet. A suspicious spot was found on the Cat Scan that may explain why she was having so many seizures, headache, and brain swelling. It needs to be further evaluated, which she has an appointment with her Neurologist to do. The injuries inflicted by the policeman are severe, but no bones were broken. The bruising is massive and was documented with photographs and medical records by us and the Olympia ER staff. On Saturday my husband took Christina to the local Westport Fire Station to meet with the ambulance crew. Christina is well-known in Westport and everyone on the ambulance crews knows her medical history and has taken care of her dozens of times since we moved here after her coma. They call her their 'miracle girl' and always tell her how much they enjoy her and her always cooperative and happy nature, regardless of how much pain or distress she may be in at any time. The ambulance crew was devastated to learn that Christina was abused by the doctor, nurses, aids, and policeman at the emergency room they took her to on Thursday evening. They documented everything and reported the situation to the local city police department. The Westport police came and was equally upset. He took statements and then called a County Sheriff to the fire station. The Sheriff also took statements and made a report. On Monday (today), 3/15/2010, Christina was seen and evaluated by her family physician, Dr. Jackson, her foot surgeon, Dr. Tronvig, and her Chiropractor, Dr. Failor. They are all shocked and disgusted at what they saw. They all know Christina to be a sweet, trusting, loving child who has survived unimaginable odds and is always happy and thankful. Like us, they cannot fathom how this horrible abuse, neglect, and trauma could have happened to her. Why would anyone want to hurt her this way? Tomorrow she has an appointment to see Dr. Miller, her local Neurologist in Aberdeen. He will do his evaluation of the damages and follow-up on her seizure and headache conditions. He will determine if she needs to begin phychological counseling, either as an out-patient or as an in-patient, because Christina is so severely traumatized now. Coming out of the coma knowing that her doctors fought with us to try to get us to sign papers to allow them to euthanize her and harvest anything viable when she was in her locked-in coma, hearing everything but unable to respond was bad enough, but this added to that is simply too much. She has an appointment to see Dr. Wilensky at Harborview Epileptic Center on March 26, 2010 for further evaluation. I want to stress that Christina was following her doctor's orders to call the ambulance each time she went to the ER while my husband and I were away. Her doctors called her each day, several times a day, to ask how she was doing and to supervise her care while she was home alone. At no time was she seeking 'drugs', as the ER doctor flattly told her and labeled her. At no time did she resist the officer or do anything to warrent him putting his hands on her or drag her feet under the wheelchair. Dr. Wilensky called a prescription of pain pills into the pharmacy for her on Friday to take for her head pain, but she declined to pick up the prescription because she does not like to take pain pills as they make her very sick to her stomach and alter her thinking and feelings. She may take what is prescribed to her at an ER for pain while she is there, but does not want to take it at home. Her foot doctor says that her feet will heal, but her foot surgery recovery has been set back by at least another two weeks due to the damages the officer caused her. The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again. When my husband or I take her to an ER, we will make the long drive to Olympia and never let her out of our sight for even a minute. We retained an attorney today to handle this case against the Gray's Harbor Hospital and staff and the Aberdeen Police Dept. and officer. What amazing timing. We are scheduled to give our first depositions this week in Seattle in our lawsuit against Eli Lilly who makes Zyprexa, which put Christina into her coma in 2004. Attached are some photos of Christina's bruises taken on Saturday. If you haven't read the story of her coma yet, you can find it at: pekingeseshihtzu.wordpress.com/christina-nichole%e2%80%99...

BORN TO KILL
HERE ARE EXAMPLES
MESSAGES THAT DONT
MATTER MUCH
as for Chris Heidie:
a skilled surgeon (plastic) with a bent toward selfmodification impelled by hermaphroditism. while pleased enough with the genitalities of this (& smallbreasted enough to pass for male if bound), the facial features proved too mannish for Heidie's liking & a series of unfortunate attempts to feminize them resulted in obliterating any visual certitude of either sex. through no error of Heidie's own, a rather complicated graft to a Known Personage failed to take & Heidie was forced to spend some weeks in jail on a trumped-up malpractice suit which, ultimately, brought more legal trouble to the complainant than to Heidie, whose professional scruples had been impeccable. some confusion as to Heidie's gender resulted in temporary imprisonment in the women's wing but, after complaints from other inmates, rehousing in the men's wing was effected. there, Heidie was brutally attacked by a prison guard who had been summoned to Heidie's aid during a jeering session by other inmates of the homophobiphiliac variety. faced with Heidie's naked form, the guard proved even worse than the prisoners (whose taunts really went only slightly beyond any juvenile hazing routines) &, in a demonstration of the revulsion that the doubly-gendered form inspired in him, he raped Heidie with his billyclub (after first forcing Heidie to push her penis into his own vagina), causing severe damage to both organs, compounded by anal damage caused by a flashlight ("whaddya got hidin' up there, freak?"). fear of reprisals kept Heidie quiet, though the doctors who attended at the prison hospital weren't & the 3 inmates who'd initiated the attack received the entire blame, the guard insisting innocence ("all over when I got there"). after Heidie's physical recuperation (achieved at home, the malpractice suit thrown out & charges instigated for defamation in return), s/he began working on a plot to wreak revenge on the guard. on his return home for a weekend from work at the prison, he entered his apartment to find it partly transformed into an operating theatre, Heidie armed & ready to return to work. the guard was found in a state of putrefication on monday evening. his penis & scrotum had been removed & a vagina crudely fashioned in their place, his lips removed & added as labia, tongue sewn in where the clitoris would be. the testicles were loose in the guard's mouth, with the scrotum sewn in place of the lips, sealing them in. his penis had its urethra very roughly enlarged & had been sewn onto the anus – probably the first of Heidie's surgical actions (when the body was found, the penis was fully engorged with & leaking excrement). there was no doubt as to who did the deed – only "why?". extensive diary entries, surgical notes & drawings at Heidie's confirmed & explained everything. it is to be expected that further attempts at facial selfmodification have altered Heidie's appearance at least somewhat – probably not for the better.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.
Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.
Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.
Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.
"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.
One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.
"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.
"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.
After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.
"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.
Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.
Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."
Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.
"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.
Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.
"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.
Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.
Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.
"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.
Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

****************************************
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush.
Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Frequently cited by the media as a possible candidate for president in the 2016 election, Bush announced in mid-December 2014 that he would explore the possibility of running for President. Bush subsequently launched his presidential campaign on June 15, 2015 in Miami, Florida.
Atlanta Jewish Times, Roy Barnes and Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard Jr, and UGA Law school Scholar Melissa Redmon, May 2019
[Curator: the well respected Atlanta Jewish Times published an article recently and rumbling storm clouds in the background are brewing in Atlanta, Ga over a supposed cold case being brought to the flamefront of burning light and renewed notoriety. This expose from comes from an insider in the Atlanta city government who is responding to the article by the Atlanta Jewish Times and tends to reflect the thoughts and concerns of millions of reticent indignant people of all races and religions from the great state of Georgia, USA.
This article and commentary upon it is posted here to show the intense emotional and cold civil war which is no longer smoldering under the surface about the Leo Frank case, which is imbued with real anti-Gentilism and mostly false accusations of anti-Semitism. For more information go to www.LeoFrankCase.com run by Jewish classics scholar Alan Koenigsberg who runs the open forum on the Leo Frank case at Yahoo groups.]
by Steve Voes
THIS INFORMATION COMES WITH permission directly from an insider source who has given me reliable information in the past, whose name I absolutely must keep confidential and who has been keeping me abreast of developments of this nature.
My government insider associate has informed me that Leo Frank, the Atlanta B’nai B’rith president who strangled little Mary Phagan, a 13-year-old White girl who worked in his factory, to death after sexually assaulting her there, will be “exonerated” in 2019. This has been a goal of organized Jews for over a century.
The fix is in. A “deal” has been made between Jews — and the Black establishment that now nominally rules once-White Atlanta — and a remnant of pathetic, truckling, corrupt White officials.
Previously, the strong evidence against Frank, and the once-proud tradition of honor among Southern Whites, made exoneration impossible and it was repeatedly rejected despite the strongest pressure from Jews.
Blacks, too, had previously been resistant to exonerating Frank, and it was a Black nationalist group, the Nation of Islam, which had published one of the best books on the Frank case, The Lynching of a Guilty Man, in 2016 (which was made into an audio book by the American Mercury). Many Blacks also strongly resented the efforts of the pro-Frank forces, which included the ADL, to successively frame two innocent Black men, Newt Lee and James Conley, for the crime. The effort to frame Conley, who died nearly 60 years ago, continues even today.
Inside information indicates that corrupt Black leaders have been given a deal in which a new “Conviction Integrity Unit” will first exonerate Frank — the real purpose of the unit — and then later may be used to reverse convictions of specially-favored Blacks.
The corrupt White leaders who acquiesced in the deal of course neither asked for nor received anything on behalf of the White community, whom they hate and do not represent. They possibly received some paltry pieces of silver for themselves — though we can’t be sure of that, since for many White trucklers, particularly ones from the South, serving and obeying Jews is enough of a reward in itself.
In late 2018, not long after the re-dedication of the Leo Frank Lynching Historical Marker at Roswell Road in Marietta, Ga., Dale Schwartz and the Anti-Defamation League’s legal team accelerated the push for the creation of a clandestine rubber-stamp committee which would do nothing less than exonerate Leo Frank.
There are other Jewish activists groups and individuals behind this as well, but intel is still being gathered (so that info will have to wait). The effort to get Leo Frank exonerated really took shape in the 1980s and only subsided in 1986 with an embarrassing “posthumous pardon” which did not officially absolve Leo Frank of the ghoulish sex-murder he committed in 1913. The pardon did, however, give Leo Frank his civil rights back, like the right to vote (can dead people vote 70 years later?), own a firearm (God forbid his skeleton should pick up some kind of scary weapon!), and run for office (on the creepy Joe Biden ticket?). It’s unfortunate that the guilty dead can’t enjoy it when they are given their civil rights back, but such is life.
One of the Loudest Living Voices in Metro Atlanta for Leo Frank’s Exoneration
Rabbi Steven Lebow of Marietta’s Temple Kol Emeth, who moved to the area from Fort Lauderdale, Florida in the mid-1980s, has been one of the loudest voices for reversing Leo Frank’s conviction (Lebow hung two plaques on a building which was near the lynching site, but the building had to be condemned for road expansion), and he is secretly head-over-heels excited about the guaranteed forthcoming exoneration. Before he found out about the newly-pending 2019 exoneration, Rabbi Lebow had been very frustrated, since the 1986 posthumous pardon Leo Frank, because it did not overturn Frank’s conviction and Frank was still officially recognized as the guilty culprit. He never gave up on his mission to convince everyone Leo Frank was innocent, even if the evidence couldn’t back up his claim. To him this was the “emotional truth” where facts don’t matter.
Failed Attempt by Rabbi Lebow to Get a Declaration from Georgia Government of Leo Frank’s Innocence
In 2015, Lebow was able to form a “Leo Frank was innocent” action A-team, made up of prominent members of the greater Atlanta community, activist judges (African-American Former Ga. Supreme Court Justice Leah Ward Sears, Former Georgia Supreme Court Chief Justice Norman Fletcher, and Cobb County Superior Court Chief Judge J. Stephen Schuster), Assistant DA Van Pearlberg, and ADL Lawyer Dale Schwartz. They held rallies and gave speeches at Lebow’s packed synagogue (hundreds showed up) and unilaterally petitioned then-Governor Nathan Deal, but he quietly refused to state Frank was innocent, taking the wind out of the sails of Lebow’s big dog-and-pony show. The Georgia Congressional Assembly did not propose any resolution to announce to the world that the serial pedophile and sex killer Leo Frank was innocent, either. The whole thing turned out to be an expensive circus.
Rabbi Lebow had funded billboards around town to declare Frank was innocent. Lebow had gaudy mustard-yellow T-shirts made up emblazoned with Leo Frank’s face in gray and the message “DINDU NUFFIN” — or something similar — emblazoned on them. To keep the parched throats of the attendees nice and quenched, he handed out dozens of custom-branded plastic bottles of Coca-Cola which had the words, “Leo Frank was innocent” on them. What a great way to promote such a lofty movement with extra-sugary teeth-rotting soda pop. Because nothing says “Leo Frank was innocent” better than diabetes and an expensive dental bill.
Leo Frank Exoneration Insiders
Many Georgia Jewish leaders who are “in the know” are keeping the preordained outcome hush-hush and are ordering (more like cracking the whip on) the DA Paul Howard to ensure the exoneration is announced on or before August 17, 2019 — this way they can pre-contract with all the major media companies to dovetail the jubilant news together with the major significance of Leo Frank’s 104th lynching anniversary. The members of this cabal are working for maximum media exposure and guerilla marketing, because if they can couple the exoneration directly with the lynching anniversary, or release the news just before the lynching anniversary, the story will “go viral” and have the maximum effect on the dull Whites who still watch TV and vote in the rigged US elections.
There is also some benefit to releasing the predetermined conclusion a little bit early, maybe a week. Now everyone’s on pins and needles, waiting with breathless anticipation for Paul Howard’s DA office to hurry up with producing the official “reasoning” — so the pre-announcement partying can begin all the sooner. Between now and then, it’s going to be raining champagne bottle corks and foamy fountains will be overflowing every kind of glass vessel; I can hear the cheers, Mazel Tov, L’Chaim, to Health! The whole circus is going to be ugly.
ADL, AJF, AJC
They finally found a very willing Atlanta DA (District Attorney) in Paul Howard to spearhead the “Conviction Integrity Unit” (a name Orwell would have loved) which has a predetermined mission to rule that the outcome of the Leo Frank trial in 1913 was “invalid.” The “unit” will also give us a hog-trough full of specious “reasoning” on how they came up with their preconceived decision, which will be repeated by the Jewish-controlled media every April and every August until the Revolution comes. I hear it’s going to play up “mob terrorism” and “anti-Semitism,” omit or twist the evidence against Frank, and attack the court proceedings as “unfair.” By weaving in other criminal cases to “examine impartially,” it blunts the fact that the committee was created specifically because of the Leo Frank case. A dirty, dirty affair, but one most appropriate and expected in the clownish death chamber the Jews have made of America.
Armed with the true lay of the land, you can read the following article by the Atlanta Jewish Times with a clear understanding.

Appendix
Leo Frank Gets “Second Look”
(Atlanta Jewish Times, editorial comment added by National Vanguard)
SPEAKING to reporters at the Fulton County Courthouse, former Georgia Gov. Roy Barnes [a long-time servant of Jewish interests in Georgia, who has uncritically and fanatically pushed for the exoneration of Jewish sex-killer Frank — Ed.] credited Rabbi Steve Lebow of Temple Kol Emeth with telling him, “There is no statute of limitations on doing the right thing.”
Throughout his 33 years at the Marietta synagogue, Lebow has been a leading voice in the effort to exonerate Leo Frank for his 1913 murder conviction. And in Barnes, he has an influential ally, who persuaded Fulton County District Attorney Paul L. Howard, Jr., to bring Frank’s case before a newly created “Conviction Integrity Unit.” [That is, “Jewish Money and Deal-making Injustice Unit” — Ed.]
Barnes, who will be an adviser to the unit, stood to Howard’s right on May 7 as the district attorney explained that the Frank case fit the fourth of four criteria for re-examination – cases that are in the “interest of justice.”
Among the other cases to be studied is that of Wayne Williams, who was convicted in 1982 of killing two men and is serving life sentences in the state prison but was suspected by police in nearly two dozen of the 1979-81 “missing and murdered children” cases. [Both the “liberal” and Black establishments were salivating to convict a White man of these murders, and were visibly crestfallen when the killer turned out to be Black. A deal has obviously been cut between corrupt Blacks, corrupt leftist Whites, and Jews, in which each will get something they want in return for acquiescing in framing a long-dead Black man, Jim Conley, for the sex killing of Mary Phagan actually committed by B’nai B’rith officer Leo Frank. — Ed.]
“The CIU will review cases in which there is new factual, physical, or forensic evidence. The unit will also review cases in which there is relevant evidence that went untested at the time of trial or some other new evidence that a person was wrongly convicted,” Howard said.
He also mentioned that his office has record of the 37 people who, according to the Equal Justice Initiative, were lynched in Fulton County between 1877 and 1950. [Part of this outrageous, immoral, and illegal “deal” may be vague promises that Black lynching victims can be “officially exonerated” too. — Ed.]
Frank, an Ivy League-educated Jew from New York, was convicted and sentenced to death for the April 26, 1913, strangling death of 13-year-old Mary Phagan at the downtown Atlanta factory of the National Pencil Company, where he was the director. Frank was found guilty in large measure based on testimony by Jim Conley, an African American janitor at the factory, who, according to a former factory employee who came forward in 1982, was seen carrying Phagan’s body. [Which makes no difference in Frank’s guilt whatsoever — as this article fails to tell you: Conley freely admitted carrying the body at the request of Frank. Leo Frank also told Conley he had killed the girl, pretending it was an accident and hiding the evidence of strangling from Conley with a piece of Mary’s lace undergarments. — Ed.]
Barnes recalled newspaper reports that as jurors walked to the courthouse from the Kimball House, where they were sequestered, a mob chanted “Hang the Jew or we’ll hang you.” [This is a long-discredited hoax, which has been exposed countless times. Nothing like that happened, and if it had, Frank’s top-drawer attorneys would have called, and called successfully, for an immediate mistrial — which they never did. — Ed.]
The Supreme Court of the United States rejected Frank’s appeals, but on June 21, 1915, Gov. John Slaton, who had developed doubts about Frank’s guilt, commuted the sentence to life in prison. On the night of Aug. 16, members of an enraged confederacy of Cobb County men, including the grandfather of Barnes’ wife, kidnapped Frank from the state prison in Milledgeville and drove him to the woods near Frey’s Gin Road in Marietta, where he was hung from a tree in the pre-dawn of Aug. 17.
The Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles posthumously pardoned Frank in 1986 but did not exonerate him. A monument to Frank, funded by Jerry Klinger, president of the Jewish American Society for Historic Preservation, now sits on Roswell Road near Interstate 75, the woods having been cleared and built on many years ago.
“There is no doubt in my mind, and we’ll prove it at the appropriate time, that Leo Frank was not guilty,” Barnes said. “We can’t right all wrongs. However, I think it’s a bad thing if we can never admit we’re wrong. This gives us a good view of history to make sure we’ve got it right.”
There is no timetable for the CIU’s re-examination of the Frank case, in large measure because a director for the unit has not yet been hired and funding from the county must be arranged.
Nonetheless, as he left the courthouse after the press conference, Lebow found reason for optimism.
“This is the most confident anybody could be in the last 100 years that the Frank case will be treated fairly. Justice delayed is justice denied and it’s been delayed for over 100 years for this guy,” Lebow said. “If you want to make the future good, you have to make the past right, and this is an opportunity to make the past right and to heal a bad part of Georgia’s history.”

ADDED November 2019
MACON – Former Georgia Gov. Roy Barnes will describe to Mercer Law students his efforts to reopen one of Georgia’s most notorious lynching cases on Nov. 12, [2019] from 12-1 p.m., in Mercer Law School’s Bell-Jones Courtroom.
Barnes, founding partner of the Barnes Law Group in Marietta, is working as a consultant to the Fulton County District Attorney’s Conviction Integrity Unit to review old cases. One of these is the case of Leo Frank, a factory superintendent who was killed by a lynch mob in Marietta in the early 1900s following the commutation of his death sentence for killing a 13-year-old female employee in the factory he managed.
Barnes will discuss the details of the case, its evidence and the process of reviewing the case now for possible exoneration of Frank.
Online registration is $50 until Nov. 11 and $70 after Nov. 11 for attorneys who wish to obtain one hour of continuing legal education (CLE) credit; lunch is included. The presentation is free to Mercer Law students.
A lifelong resident of Cobb County, Barnes earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia and graduated with honors from the Lumpkin School of Law at UGA in 1972. Upon graduation, he went to work as a prosecutor in the Cobb County District Attorney’s office, where he stayed until opening his first law firm in 1975.
For more than 40 years, Barnes has tried civil and criminal cases throughout Georgia and in neighboring states. His practice has concentrated primarily on civil litigation, where he has developed an expertise in consumer class action cases, medical malpractice matters, products liability law, general tort matters and commercial litigation. He has appeared in more than 250 cases in the state and federal appellate courts.
At age 26, Barnes was elected the youngest member of the Georgia State Senate. He went on to serve a total of eight terms and was a member of the Appropriations, Rules and Transportation committees. In addition, he was chairman of the Select Committee on Constitutional Revision, which rewrote the state’s constitution, as well as chairman of the powerful Judiciary Committee.
He also served as a floor leader to Gov. Joe Frank Harris from 1983-1989. After an unsuccessful bid for the Governor’s Office in 1990, he was elected to the State House of Representatives, where he served for six years and was vice chairman of the Judiciary Committee and chair of the Subcommittee on General Law.
In 1998, Barnes was elected to serve as the 80th governor of Georgia. During his term, he concentrated on education reform, healthcare reform and remedies for urban growth and sprawl.

The state Supreme Court has upheld a decision from a Berkeley County Circuit Judge on a medical malpractice case.
On Wednesday, the Court released its opinion on James MacDonald versus City Hospital and Doctor Sayeed Ahmed.
The case started when MacDonald and his wife filed a negligence lawsuit in 2007 because they claim James was given prescription drugs he should not have been given, based on his medical history, when he was admitted to City Hospital in Martinsburg in 2004.
He was being treated for Type II diabetes, shortness of breath and pneumonia.
The claim was that MacDonald was permanently injured because of the negative interactions between the drugs. Hospital officials denied that at trial, saying they properly checked for possible bad interactions and warned the MacDonalds about side effects.
After hearing evidence during a trial in 2008, a jury awarded $1.5 million to the MacDonalds for what are called noneconomic losses. A Berkeley County judge reduced that to $500,000 to comply with the state cap on such losses.
In the opinion, the Court found that the state limit on compensatory damages for medical malpractice to be constitutional and kept the amount at $500,000.
The MacDonalds had wanted the full award, while those with City Hospital were arguing for $250,000.

The Story: How a Water Fluoridation Mandate was forced upon Louisiana, Circa 2008
This is a summary of how Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals (DHH), the Louisiana & American Dental Associations (LDA/ADA & their Lobbyists ) and Senator Willie Mount of Lake Charles created a "Mandate" (Senate Bill/Law) to dump the super toxin, Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate into Louisiana’s Drinking water
- Bobby Jindal hired Alan Levine & Rony Francois, Md, MSPH, Phd to head up the Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals. Both of these men worked for Jeb Bush in Florida's department of Health & Hospitals. Florida is home to the largest Fertilizer Industry in the US where 95% of the Fluoride waste chemical comes from that is used to fluoridate water in the USA.
At a meeting (where I was present) with the Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals (DHH) in Baton Rouge on April 22, 2009 Secretary of DHH Alan Levine, and his Assistant to the Secretary Rony Francois (Md, MSPH, Phd) claimed to have NO KNOWLEDGE of any of the dangers and hazards surrounding water fluoridation.
And yet it is these two men who worked for Jeb Bush in Florida, home to the largest producers of Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate fertilizer waste product, which is used to fluoridate Humans Drinking water.
These men have been put in charge of administering this fluoride waste toxin to all citizens of Louisiana, to include: babies, pregnant women, the sick, the poor, Kidney dialysis patients, people with immunity disorder issues, Thyroid disorders, Diabetics.... etc and yet they admitted that they knew of no dangers or hazards regarding water fluoridation.
Dr. Paul Connett, (Emeritus Environmental Chemistry Phd. & founder of www.fluoridealert.org) a widely recognized anti-fluoridation expert was present at this meeting to explain to the heads of Louisiana's Department of Health & hospitals that Water Fluoridation is extremely toxic to humans and under no circumstances should water fluoridation be mandated without the consent of the citizens of Louisiana.
So, I ask all of you, is Bobby Jindal anything other than a another politician who will say anything, do anything to advance his political ambitions? Even poison Louisiana (Sportsman's Paradise) Citizens drinking water, without their consent. (-Didn’t his unbelievable speech to the nation demonstrate what a poser Jindal really is. The story he told about Katrina was just that, a story, embellished into a lie.Things told that did not happen.)
The people of Louisiana have no idea this is even happening and have no education about water fluoridation other than the Fluoridation influence peddling from their dentists and the LDA/ADA. Specifically, DDS, Ward Blackwell the head of the LDA (Louisiana Dental Association). This dentist went before the Louisiana Legislature in 2008 and flat out lied to them about the safety of water fluoridation. There were no opposing experts there during the legislative session to present the known dangers of water fluoridation; Data, studies and statistics that have been there for over 60yrs demonstrating that Water Fluoridation is not only NOT necessary, it's terribly toxic to humans. The CEO of Baton Rouge Water Company did at least make a plea not to pass a bill mandating fluoridation for Louisiana. He was of course ignored. Many of the legislators simply asked their dentists what to do and voted for fluoridation because the dentists will tell you it's a great public health measure and saves our societies money by killing dental bacteria while it destroys the rest of your body, especially in the long term.
You can watch DDS, Ward Blackwell on Video making what is tantamount to medical malpractice statements before the Louisiana Legislature:
DDS, Ward Blackwell’s words:
"there simply are no documented safety issues with fluoridation".
www.wesawthat.blogspot.com/2008/07/sb312-how-mandatory-fl...
This is the fight to fight. It's for the safety of your drinking water.
Jindal should be impeached for signing SB 312 into law. He ignored all of the emails and phone calls from those who did know about SB 312. (I only found because of www.flouridealert.org)
And to make things worse, the people Jindal has appointed to head DHH in Louisiana claimed to know NOTHING about the dangers surrounding Water Fluoridation.
How medically irresponsible and incompetent can you get? Especially regarding something as important as the safety of your drinking water.
Jindal signed SB 312 into law, and it’s a MANDATE to poison what is some of the best drinking water in the world, Baton Rouge's water comes from natural well water aquifers.
The unthinkable is happening, Six months after Jindal became governor there appears a law mandating that Hydrofluorosilicic Acid be added as medication to citizens drinking water WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT. And with NO WAY to CONTROL the DOSE
JINDAL (former head of Louisiana Department of Health & Hospitals) supports MASS MEDICATION of CITIZENS via DRINKING WATER with a SUPER TOXIN - WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO CONTROL the DOSE. (same substance that if you dump it in a river, you go to jail; FACT)
And the SB 312 law is designed so that it is almost impossible to have it overturned in your city. You’d have to get 15% (they initially wanted it to be 30% but the congress rejected it) of the people in your city to sign a legitimate petition and THEN force a vote where over 50% of the citizens would have to vote out the fluoridation mandate. This is no easy task. This is why Louisiana must force Jindal To REVOKE SB 312.
All citizens of Louisiana, please get involved and demand that Jindal REVOKE
SB 312.
**** If the citizens of Louisiana rest on their laurels, grant funding or some other way to implement water fluoridation will no doubt happen. The chemical companies that stand to profit from this practice are just waiting for a gateway to get their product into our water. The state (DHH) goes around to small cities and tries to get city councils to begin the fluoridation of their water, in accordance with the mandate. Each city has it's own political agendas and relationship with DHH and it's chemical association relationships.
They use the Dentists and LDA as the "medical" science support behind fluoridation. And all of this comes top down from the Federal Government and is supported by the highest research bodies in the country, which are propped up and funded by the Chemical Waste producers of fluoride waste product.
And there is an unending supply of fluoride waste, worldwide. If people only knew all of the processes that create fluoride waste. Then you'd know that fluoride is the most pervasive toxin on Earth.
__________________________________________________________
Text Body of Flyer:
In July, 2008 Bobby Jindal signed into law SB 312 sponsored by Senator Willie Mount of Lake Charles & the Louisiana Dental Association (LDA) & the American Dental Association (ADA).
This insidious law mandates that Louisiana’s water supplies be poisoned with fluoride waste chemical (by-product of the Fertilizer industry) known specifically as, Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate -which contains Arsenic, Lead, Mercury and even highly radioactive Uranium which is found in phosphate rock used to make fertilizer.
In the middle of a historic depression in the US Jindal & DHH (Department of Health & Hospitals) is creating a tax on your water to the tune of millions of dollars to add Fluoride Waste Super Toxins to your water. Why is this? Ask Jindal & Secretary of DHH, Alan Levine,. - FACT: If you dump this same waste in a river you’ll go to jail, and yet these people intend to put this same chemical in your drinking water. Claiming that when sufficiently diluted in water these super poisons are rendered harmless. † Malpractice false.
The costs to add Hydrofluorosilicic Acid or Sodium Fluorosilicate to Baton Rouge’s 80 separate and pristine natural water aquifers will be $8,553,559.90 for the first six months. The state is supposed pay (** often outside grants or funding is obtained to quietly begin the fluoridation) for the first six months costs for water fluoridation. Thereafter, the citizens of Baton Rouge will pay a huge price tag for adding Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate to your water. The PRICE OF YOUR WATER WILL GO UP SIGNIFICANTLY. Baton Rouge Water Co. Just announced it’s first price increase in 17 yrs. Think of what you will be paying if DHH fluoridates our Great World Class water in Baton Rouge.
****Call & Email: Governor Jindal, (DHH) Department of Health & Hospitals Secretary Alan Levine, your Senators ( Willie Mount) & Representatives, Mayor Kip Holden, Baton Rouge Water Company, The Advocate, Local TV News Stations and your local Churches and DEMAND that SB 312 (2008) be REVOKED.
Facts about Fluoridation & Important Questions to ask Jindal, DHH Alan Levine & the politicians who voted MANDATORY Fluoridation into law:
1. Baton Rouge has 80+ separate well water aquifers. It is extremely IMPRACTICAL & EXPENSIVE to fluoridate all these water sites. Does DHH have test results indicating that each of these 80 water sites are fluoride deficient? If not, what is the basis for adding additional fluoride waste chemical to perfectly healthy drinking water? Especially since Hydrofluorosilicic Acid is extremely toxic.
2. Since DHH will be medicating citizens by adding supplemental Fluoride to their drinking water, who is legally & medically responsible for this program? Can DHH provide contact information for the physician in charge of administering fluoride “medication” to the population?
3. What dose of Fluoride does DHH plan to prescribe to each citizen? How does DHH plan to administer & control fluoride doses for individual citizens who may drink more water than others?
4. Given that there is ample public access to fluoride products such as toothpaste, mouth wash, dental floss and pharmaceutical fluoride pills, what need could there possibly be to add Hydrofluorosilicic Acid to drinking water? Especially since 99 1/2% of water goes down the drain. Water fluoridation is a wasted & significant expense for taxpayers.
5 .Since DHH is claiming that all citizens are fluoride deficient and need to have fluoride chemical added to their water, how does DHH intend to prove which patients need additional fluoride supplements & those who clearly do not? If DHH cannot TEST all CITIZENS BLOOD to determine why DHH might medicate them, with anything, let alone additional fluoride in their system, how is it legal to administer fluoride as a medication via citizens drinking water, without their consent ? Is this the year 2009 or 1650? Water Fluoridation is a Medieval practice.
6. Can DHH provide toxicity studies done on Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate that prove definitively that adding these specific chemicals to drinking water is safe for infants, children, pregnant women, the elderly and citizens with compromised immunity issues such as Kidney & Thyroid disorders etc...
7. Will DHH educate the public re: the fact that 95% of the fluoride chemical used in water fluoridation in the US comes in the form of a chemical waste product (Silicofluorides) produced by manufacturing Fertilizer? - THIS is a KEY FACT that the PUBLIC NEEDS TO KNOW about.††
8 . It is illegal to dump Silicofluorides into a river or ocean & yet it is these chemicals, Hydrofluorosilicic Acid & Sodium Fluorosilicate that DHH will be adding to your drinking water. Like I said, CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY.
9. What business do dentists, LDA & ADA have advocating (and spending a lot of money to do so) mass medication of citizens, without their consent, via their drinking water? The "It's good for your teeth argument" is a fraud, it's been proven time and again all over the world, water fluoridation is completely unnecessary for optimal dental health
10. In 2006, the ADA began warning dentists and it's constituents (not publicly) that using fluoridated water with baby formula for infants is dangerous & toxic to the babies blood/brain barrier. So, it's poisoning them. Adults are no different.
Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet. A suspicious spot was found on the Cat Scan that may explain why she was having so many seizures, headache, and brain swelling. It needs to be further evaluated, which she has an appointment with her Neurologist to do. The injuries inflicted by the policeman are severe, but no bones were broken. The bruising is massive and was documented with photographs and medical records by us and the Olympia ER staff. On Saturday my husband took Christina to the local Westport Fire Station to meet with the ambulance crew. Christina is well-known in Westport and everyone on the ambulance crews knows her medical history and has taken care of her dozens of times since we moved here after her coma. They call her their 'miracle girl' and always tell her how much they enjoy her and her always cooperative and happy nature, regardless of how much pain or distress she may be in at any time. The ambulance crew was devastated to learn that Christina was abused by the doctor, nurses, aids, and policeman at the emergency room they took her to on Thursday evening. They documented everything and reported the situation to the local city police department. The Westport police came and was equally upset. He took statements and then called a County Sheriff to the fire station. The Sheriff also took statements and made a report. On Monday (today), 3/15/2010, Christina was seen and evaluated by her family physician, Dr. Jackson, her foot surgeon, Dr. Tronvig, and her Chiropractor, Dr. Failor. They are all shocked and disgusted at what they saw. They all know Christina to be a sweet, trusting, loving child who has survived unimaginable odds and is always happy and thankful. Like us, they cannot fathom how this horrible abuse, neglect, and trauma could have happened to her. Why would anyone want to hurt her this way? Tomorrow she has an appointment to see Dr. Miller, her local Neurologist in Aberdeen. He will do his evaluation of the damages and follow-up on her seizure and headache conditions. He will determine if she needs to begin phychological counseling, either as an out-patient or as an in-patient, because Christina is so severely traumatized now. Coming out of the coma knowing that her doctors fought with us to try to get us to sign papers to allow them to euthanize her and harvest anything viable when she was in her locked-in coma, hearing everything but unable to respond was bad enough, but this added to that is simply too much. She has an appointment to see Dr. Wilensky at Harborview Epileptic Center on March 26, 2010 for further evaluation. I want to stress that Christina was following her doctor's orders to call the ambulance each time she went to the ER while my husband and I were away. Her doctors called her each day, several times a day, to ask how she was doing and to supervise her care while she was home alone. At no time was she seeking 'drugs', as the ER doctor flattly told her and labeled her. At no time did she resist the officer or do anything to warrent him putting his hands on her or drag her feet under the wheelchair. Dr. Wilensky called a prescription of pain pills into the pharmacy for her on Friday to take for her head pain, but she declined to pick up the prescription because she does not like to take pain pills as they make her very sick to her stomach and alter her thinking and feelings. She may take what is prescribed to her at an ER for pain while she is there, but does not want to take it at home. Her foot doctor says that her feet will heal, but her foot surgery recovery has been set back by at least another two weeks due to the damages the officer caused her. The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again. When my husband or I take her to an ER, we will make the long drive to Olympia and never let her out of our sight for even a minute. We retained an attorney today to handle this case against the Gray's Harbor Hospital and staff and the Aberdeen Police Dept. and officer. What amazing timing. We are scheduled to give our first depositions this week in Seattle in our lawsuit against Eli Lilly who makes Zyprexa, which put Christina into her coma in 2004. Attached are some photos of Christina's bruises taken on Saturday. If you haven't read the story of her coma yet, you can find it at: pekingeseshihtzu.wordpress.com/christina-nichole%e2%80%99...
Some random images from dress rehearsal of the upcoming performance starting this week.
www.apollo-theatre.org.uk/habeas-corpus/
The first show of our 2016-17 season is Alan Bennett’s hilarious farce, ‘Habeas Corpus’. It can’t be better described than in Paul Taylor’s review of a revival at the Donmar Warehouse in 1996:
‘Mammaries and mortality loom large in Habeas Corpus, Alan Bennett’s blissfully funny 1973 farce. Like some saucy Magill seaside postcard as retouched by Magritte, or an end-of-the-pier romp reorganised by Orton, the piece shows how a collection of stock types from Hove (randy GP, sex-starved wife, flat-chested spinster who longs to be stacked like the Cairngorms, etc) find themselves propelled into the permissive society with the arrival of a false-breast fitter from Leatherhead. Identities are mistaken, the wrong knockers admiringly fondled, and libidos burst out of enforced hibernation.
Putting the focus on a couple of doctors who want to ensnare each other for professional malpractice enables Habeas Corpus to be in two minds about the human body. The job is a licence for roving hands and eyes and the play is very droll about the parless protocols of touch (‘Touching is what loved ones are for,’ declares the permanently affronted Lady Rumpers, ‘because loving takes the sting out of it.’). But being a doctor also offers extensive opportunities for getting to grips with the body at its least lovely and most mortal. Hence the conclusion that you should get as much sex in as you can before the only thing that’s rampant about you is the rot.’
The Apollo Players leap in where angels may well fear to tread, so prepare to be appalled, affronted and helpless with laughter!
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.
Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.
Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.
Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.
"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.
One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.
"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.
"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.
After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.
"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.
Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.
Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."
Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.
"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.
Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.
"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.
Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.
Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.
"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.
Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

****************************************
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush.
Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Frequently cited by the media as a possible candidate for president in the 2016 election, Bush announced in mid-December 2014 that he would explore the possibility of running for President. Bush subsequently launched his presidential campaign on June 15, 2015 in Miami, Florida.
Schirrous cord is an infection in the distal part of the cord that attaches the testicle to the abdominal cavity, which is left behind. This can result in the formation of a closed abscess.
Schirrous cord is the second most common complication seen when castrating horses, the first being excessive hemorrhage.
Although castration is the most common Equine Field surgery it is also the number one reason for malpractice suits in the Equine industry.

Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet.

Governor of Florida Jeb Bush at TurboCam, Barrington, New Hampshire on August 7th by Michael Vadon Part 1 of 4
CONCORD, N.H. —Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
At a town hall Friday night in Barrington, Bush spoke about how he won't campaign with anger and instead spoke a lot about policy.
He started his day at Brown's Lobster Pound in Seabrook. After greeting voters -- trying a lobster roll -- Bush told reporters he plans to campaign hard on and off the debate stage between now and the primaries.
"I think I did fine (in the debate). I am who I am," Bush said.
He's declining to criticize his Republican rivals, including Donald Trump, who refused to pledge support to the party's eventual nominee. Instead, Bush says he's focused on sharing his record as governor with voters and letting people get to know who he is.
"So you take advantage of opportunities when you have them, speak from your heart," Bush said. "I don't view this debating as question of winning or losing. It's the cumulative effect of shaping peoples opinion of who you are over the long haul."
Bush said Democrats' attacks against him show he is the candidate they fear most.
"Let me think why they would be. Because maybe it's because they consider me the biggest threat," Bush said.

Attached are some photos of Christina's bruises taken on Saturday. If you haven't read the story of her coma yet, you can find it at: pekingeseshihtzu.wordpress.com/christina-nichole%e2%80%99...
Schirrous cord is an infection in the distal part of the cord that attaches the testicle to the abdominal cavity, which is left behind. This can result in the formation of a closed abscess.
Schirrous cord is the second most common complication seen when castrating horses, the first being excessive hemorrhage.
Although castration is the most common Equine Field surgery it is also the number one reason for malpractice suits in the Equine industry.

Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet. A suspicious spot was found on the Cat Scan that may explain why she was having so many seizures, headache, and brain swelling. It needs to be further evaluated, which she has an appointment with her Neurologist to do. The injuries inflicted by the policeman are severe, but no bones were broken. The bruising is massive and was documented with photographs and medical records by us and the Olympia ER staff. On Saturday my husband took Christina to the local Westport Fire Station to meet with the ambulance crew. Christina is well-known in Westport and everyone on the ambulance crews knows her medical history and has taken care of her dozens of times since we moved here after her coma. They call her their 'miracle girl' and always tell her how much they enjoy her and her always cooperative and happy nature, regardless of how much pain or distress she may be in at any time. The ambulance crew was devastated to learn that Christina was abused by the doctor, nurses, aids, and policeman at the emergency room they took her to on Thursday evening. They documented everything and reported the situation to the local city police department. The Westport police came and was equally upset. He took statements and then called a County Sheriff to the fire station. The Sheriff also took statements and made a report. On Monday (today), 3/15/2010, Christina was seen and evaluated by her family physician, Dr. Jackson, her foot surgeon, Dr. Tronvig, and her Chiropractor, Dr. Failor. They are all shocked and disgusted at what they saw. They all know Christina to be a sweet, trusting, loving child who has survived unimaginable odds and is always happy and thankful. Like us, they cannot fathom how this horrible abuse, neglect, and trauma could have happened to her. Why would anyone want to hurt her this way? Tomorrow she has an appointment to see Dr. Miller, her local Neurologist in Aberdeen. He will do his evaluation of the damages and follow-up on her seizure and headache conditions. He will determine if she needs to begin phychological counseling, either as an out-patient or as an in-patient, because Christina is so severely traumatized now. Coming out of the coma knowing that her doctors fought with us to try to get us to sign papers to allow them to euthanize her and harvest anything viable when she was in her locked-in coma, hearing everything but unable to respond was bad enough, but this added to that is simply too much. She has an appointment to see Dr. Wilensky at Harborview Epileptic Center on March 26, 2010 for further evaluation. I want to stress that Christina was following her doctor's orders to call the ambulance each time she went to the ER while my husband and I were away. Her doctors called her each day, several times a day, to ask how she was doing and to supervise her care while she was home alone. At no time was she seeking 'drugs', as the ER doctor flattly told her and labeled her. At no time did she resist the officer or do anything to warrent him putting his hands on her or drag her feet under the wheelchair. Dr. Wilensky called a prescription of pain pills into the pharmacy for her on Friday to take for her head pain, but she declined to pick up the prescription because she does not like to take pain pills as they make her very sick to her stomach and alter her thinking and feelings. She may take what is prescribed to her at an ER for pain while she is there, but does not want to take it at home. Her foot doctor says that her feet will heal, but her foot surgery recovery has been set back by at least another two weeks due to the damages the officer caused her. The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again. When my husband or I take her to an ER, we will make the long drive to Olympia and never let her out of our sight for even a minute. We retained an attorney today to handle this case against the Gray's Harbor Hospital and staff and the Aberdeen Police Dept. and officer. What amazing timing. We are scheduled to give our first depositions this week in Seattle in our lawsuit against Eli Lilly who makes Zyprexa, which put Christina into her coma in 2004.

Injuries can occur in a wide range of situations and environments. The leading causes of accident and injury are:
Motor Vehicle Collisions and Accident
Trucking Accidents
Motorcycle Accidents
Boating Accidents
Negligence in Public Places-Slip and Fall Accidents and Injuries
Workplace or labor related injuries
Building liabilities and “slip and fall” accidents

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.
Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.
Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.
Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.
"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.
One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.
"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.
"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.
After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.
"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.
Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.
Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."
Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.
"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.
Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.
"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.
Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.
Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.
"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.
Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

****************************************
John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush.
Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Frequently cited by the media as a possible candidate for president in the 2016 election, Bush announced in mid-December 2014 that he would explore the possibility of running for President. Bush subsequently launched his presidential campaign on June 15, 2015 in Miami, Florida.
On July 27, 1973 we lost the great James Radcliffe (November 18, 1936 – July 27, 1973) was an American soul singer, composer, arranger, conductor and record producer. Gone but never forgotten. God Bless , James Arturo

Biography on Jimmy Radcliffe
Though primarily known for his soul recordings Jimmy Radcliffe's talents crossed boundaries far and wide. As a songwriter he crafted material covered by a diverse group of artist in varying styles. Noted recording talents such as The Andrews Sisters, Aretha Franklin, ex-Drifter Clyde McPhatter, Eric Burdon & The Animals, Tom Jones, Matt Monro, Lou Rawls, Etta James, Esther Phillips and Ray Charles are among the many who have covered his melodies. As a vocalist Jimmy's recordings directed Pop, Soul, Blues and Jazz performers as one Of New York's top demo singers ("This Diamond Ring", "Pretty Flamingo"), helped revive a dance craze as a member of 60s pop supergroup The Definitive Rock Chorale, produced by Ellie Greenwich, and inspired the world performing one of the top ten advertising jingles of the 20th Century, the R&B version of McDonalds' "You Deserve A Break Today".
Realizing the importance of the coalition of film and music in 1964 Jimmy began to pursue song placements with the help and support of music publisher Aaron Schroeder. His gospel based melody "Glory To The Lamb" written with Arnold Goland and David Mook, fit into the Anthony Perkin's film "The Fool Killer" that was shot in 1961 but due to contractual reasons didn't get released until 1965. The following year he collaborated with German Orchestra leader Bert Kaempfert on "But Not Today" as one of the main themes for the film "A Man Could Get Killed" the other theme is the now famous "Strangers In The Night" (Kaempfert-Snyder-Singleton). When Aaron Schroeder got the gig as the Music Director for Hanna-Barbera Production's "The Banana Splits" Television show, that ran from September 7, 1968 to September 5, 1970, he chose songs from his staff of writers that included Gene Pitney, Barry White, Al Kooper, Tony Powers and Mr. Radcliffe. Another Hanna-Barbera Productions that Jimmy wrote, produced and provided vocals for was The "Harlem Globetrotters" animated television show that ran from September 12, 1970 to September 2, 1972. Globetrotters Music Supervisor Don Kirshner and Producer Wally Gold asked Jimmy to write a number of songs performed in the show and he provided the vocals for three of The tracks from the non-album singles issued on the Kirshner Label. Over the years Jimmy's songs have been featured in the films "Se7en" (Brad Pitt & Morgan Freeman), "U-Turn" (Sean Penn & Jennifer Lopez), "The Tenants" (Dylan McDermott & Snoop Dogg), and "Something New" (Sanaa Lathan & Simon Baker).
Jimmy Radcliffe's impressive vocal abilities earned him the distinction of being "The Soul Of The Brill Building Sound" as a much in demand demo singer among the New York songwriting elite. During the sixties and early seventies he recorded the first, "demo", versions of soon to be hits, "This Diamond Ring" and "Pretty Flamingo", by the likes of Al Kooper, Mark Barkan, Burt Bacharach, Ellie Greenwich, Tony Powers Leiber & Stoller, Scott English and others. His recording of the Joey Brooks song "Feels Like Lovin'" was used in the 1967 Radley Metzger sexploitation film "Carmen Baby". Hit Jingle writer-composer, Steve Karmen, called upon Jimmy's vocals for two songs in the 1970 Allen Funt film "What Do You Say To A Naked Lady" and the 1971 Gerald Potterton Live Action-Animated film "Tiki Tiki" contained two of Radcliffe's power-house recordings too.
Like so many from the pre-soul music era Jimmy began singing in his church's choir before venturing into secular music while serving a mid-'50s stint in the Air Force, where he formed the Fascinators and also performed solo. The highlight of his military warbling was an appearance on the armed forces network in Germany. When his duties ended in 1958, he returned to New York and sang in street corner groups that occasionally played neighborhood venues. In 1960 some demos he cut and persuaded a local DJ to play caught the ears of a Musicor Records' executive, Aaron Schroeder, who signed him to a songwriting contract with its publishing arm, January Music. He didn't release a record, however, until two years later; instead, he cut demos used to demonstrate songs to artists like the Drifters.
Musicor issued "Twist Calypso" b/w "Don't Look My Way" in 1962, Radcliffe co-wrote both sides with Phil Sterns, a long-running collaborator. It was followed by "(There Goes) the Forgotten Man" (1962), which Gene McDaniels later cut, and "Through a Long and Sleepless Night" (1963). The first three singles showed promise but did little. Radcliffe's original rendition of Hal David and Burt Bacharach's "Long After Tonight Is All Over" (1964) sold better and got Radcliffe recognized, especially in the United Kingdom where it charted on Stateside Records in February of 1965. An Interesting little known piece of history is Jimmy also released "One By One" bw/ "Monkey Jazz" a pop-jazz record under the nom-de-plume The Mixture on the Fontana Label in the UK and "Secret Weapon (The British Are Coming) b/w/ "Jealous Kind Of Woman" as a member of the B.R.A.T.T.S. on the Tollie Imprint in the States.
Switching Labels Radcliffe's next single, the original "My Ship Is Comin' In," appeared on Musicor Offshoot Aurora Records and again got more run in the U.K. than the U.S.A. Walter Jackson redid it, but the Walker Brothers enjoyed the most successful version, taking the Joey Brooks' song to number three pop in 1965. Producing himself this time, Bert Bern's, Shout Records issued "Lucky Old Sun" b/w "So Deep," by Radcliffe in 1966; but nothing else surfaced until 1968 when "Breakaway Parts 1 & 2," credited to the Steve Karman Big Band featuring Jimmy Radcliffe, kicked out on United Artists Records. Jimmy did however lend his brand of soul to "Variations On A Theme Called Hanky Panky" a release from Pop Super-group The Definitive Rock Chorale on Philips Records and as counter-lead vocal on "I'm In The Mood" from The Daily News on Parrot in 1968.
A final Jimmy Radcliffe single, "Funky Bottom Congregation" b/w "Lay A Little Lovin' On Me" (1969), bore RCA's logo.
Jimmy Radcliffe is also noted for being the first African-American singer, songwriter, producer of Television and Radio Commercial Jingles for the Black and Mainstream consumer markets, getting his start in 1965. Jimmy provided the memorable vocals on the released version of "Breakaway", Jingle writer Steve Karmen's first hit advertising campaign, the R&B version of Gavin & Woloshin's "You Deserve A Break Today" for McDonald's and the Tom Anthony, written and produced, 1971 Clio Award winner "Polaroid Gives It To You Now" for Polaroid Cameras.
As a record producer his credits range from producing the original demo of "It's My Party" (vocal by Barbara Jean English), collaborating with legendary producer John Hammond at Columbia Records and co-producing with Aretha Franklin "Black Pride" the main theme to Jesse Jackson's S.C.L.C. Black Expo '71' in New York City.
Jimmy Radcliffe was also a first class musician and arranger: he played vibes, drums, piano, bass and guitar and was an avid craftsman who designed both furniture and clothing. Besides a few early releases on Musicor Records in Italian he studied and spoke French.
Sadly before he received the kind of public recognition that was freely lavished on him from those in the know of his music industry peers, Jimmy Radcliffe's brilliant creative light was extinguished by the hazards of an intense work and play lifestyle and medical malpractice. But his music lives on!

Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures.

The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again. When my husband or I take her to an ER, we will make the long drive to Olympia and never let her out of our sight for even a minute. We retained an attorney today to handle this case against the Gray's Harbor Hospital and staff and the Aberdeen Police Dept. and officer. What amazing timing. We are scheduled to give our first depositions this week in Seattle in our lawsuit against Eli Lilly who makes Zyprexa, which put Christina into her coma in 2004. Attached are some photos of Christina's bruises taken on Saturday. If you haven't read the story of her coma yet, you can find it at: pekingeseshihtzu.wordpress.com/christina-nichole%e2%80%99...
COPYRIGHT IS CREATIVE COMMONS ATTRIBUTION SHARE-ALIKE WHICH MEANS YOU MUST ATTRIBUTE MICHAEL VADON IN AN OBVIOUS MANNER TO REUSE
Governor of Florida Jeb Bush at TurboCam, Barrington, New Hampshire on August 7th by Michael Vadon Part 1 of 4
CONCORD, N.H. —Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
Less than a day after the first debate of the GOP primary, former Florida governor Jeb Bush is back in New Hampshire campaigning.
At a town hall Friday night in Barrington, Bush spoke about how he won't campaign with anger and instead spoke a lot about policy.
He started his day at Brown's Lobster Pound in Seabrook. After greeting voters -- trying a lobster roll -- Bush told reporters he plans to campaign hard on and off the debate stage between now and the primaries.
"I think I did fine (in the debate). I am who I am," Bush said.
He's declining to criticize his Republican rivals, including Donald Trump, who refused to pledge support to the party's eventual nominee. Instead, Bush says he's focused on sharing his record as governor with voters and letting people get to know who he is.
"So you take advantage of opportunities when you have them, speak from your heart," Bush said. "I don't view this debating as question of winning or losing. It's the cumulative effect of shaping peoples opinion of who you are over the long haul."
Bush said Democrats' attacks against him show he is the candidate they fear most.
"Let me think why they would be. Because maybe it's because they consider me the biggest threat," Bush said.

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007.
Bush is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and the younger brother of former President George W. Bush, grandson of the late Prescott Sheldon Bush, American Banker and United States Senator from Connecticut. He grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from the Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until his resignation in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush was credited with initiating environmental improvements, such as conservation in the Everglades, supporting caps for medical malpractice litigation, moving Medicaid recipients to private systems, and instituting reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.
Bush is a candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was visiting the Granite State on Wednesday.
Bush took questions at a town hall event in Hudson on Wednesday evening after making an unannounced stop at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop in Dover earlier in the day.
Bush spoke, surrounded by veterans, at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post in Hudson -- a popular stop on the primary trail.
Bush spoke about New Hampshire's twin energy controversies -- the proposed Kinder Morgan natural gas pipeline in the state's southern tier, as well as the Northern Pass project.
"I mean, you guys are struggling to build pipelines and transmission lines, best I can tell," said Bush.
One attendee followed up, asking Bush what he knew about the pipeline.
"It promises to cut through a number of people's homes and [environmentally protected] land," the questioner said.
"There's a trade-off in this, which is how public policy works. The trade-off is how do you balance the economic interests of working-class families with environmental considerations? And those are best sorted out at the state level, not in Washington, DC," said Bush.
After the town hall, Bush told News 9 that he won't be taking sides.
"I think this should be locally driven," said Bush.
Bush also provided additional context to comments he made to the Union Leader editorial board earlier in the day.
Controversy began brewing on social media after Bush said that "people need to work longer hours."
Bush clarified that he was referring to new overtime rules, which he believes will force people into part-time jobs.
"I think people want to work harder, to be able to have more money in their own pockets -- not to be dependent upon government. You can take it out of context all you want, but high, sustained growth means people work 40 hours rather than 30 hours, and that by our success they have money -- disposable income for their families to decide how they want to spend it rather than getting in line," said Bush.
Bush also dismissed Donald Trump's criticism of his immigration position, when Trump essentially said that Bush is biased by the fact that his wife is Mexican.
"You can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe we need to control the border," said Bush.
Bush also had coffee and breakfast with a small crowd at Harvey's Bakery and Coffee Shop earlier in the day, where he said he'll use his leadership skills from his experience in office to change the roles within our government.
Bush said that one of the first things he would do in office is reduce federal overreach.
"Under this administration, there's been broad overreach in the regulatory powers. We need to bring powers back to states and local communities and that's something the president can do almost immediately,” said Bush.
Bush also said he would create a better energy plan for America and re-establish America's leadership internationally.

Mrs Daintree and daughter at Maryvale: Queensland State Archives Image ID DR3068
An English-born geologist who emigrated to Victoria in 1852, Richard Daintree became one of Queensland’s pioneer photographers after he entered into a partnership with pioneer pastoralist William Hann and took up residence in the Upper Burdekin River district in 1864. Rather than concentrating on stock work, Daintree spent much of his time photographing the scenery and prospecting for minerals. The latter proved to be a great boon for northern development, for after the collapse of the pastoral industry in the mid-1860s Daintree opened up goldfields at Cape River (1867), the Gilbert River (1869) and on the Etheridge (1869-1870). Although the Etheridge field proved to be the only one of any consequence, prospectors moving into the region provided a ready market for meat as well as extending the search for minerals and venturing into agricultural and commercial enterprises. Daintree returned to England where he was appointed Queensland’s Agent-General in 1872 and was able to use his photographic material to promote Queensland as a desirable destination. Scrupulously honest, Daintree resigned in 1876 after a number of his subordinates were dismissed for malpractice. He succumbed to tuberculosis two years later.

Men are supposed to have foreskin…
that's why they're born with it.
"Is foreskin a normal body part? Yes.
Is it functional? Yes. Significantly.
Does it fall off on its own or come off easily? No.
Do billions of men have and enjoy this body part? Yes.
Do their partners benefit from it? Yes.
Is the foreskin full of muscle tissue, blood vessels and nerve endings? Yes.
Is it as much a part of the body as eyelids, fingers and toes? Yes.
Should it be valued and protected as those parts of the body? Yes, of course.
Is circumcision a wounding, a harm and a loss? You betcha."~Jason Fairfield
Don't appeal to ignorance
Research the foreskin
Say NO to genital mutilation

Our disabled daughter, Christina Nichole, was physically and mentally abused by a doctor and police officer at the Gray's Harbor County Hospital in Aberdeen WA last Thursday, March 11, 2010, while she was there after being transported by ambulance to seek care for a 10-day severe headache and nearly continuous epileptic seizures. She just spent a week in Harborview Hospital receiving her 3rd brain study and medicine change by Dr. Wilensky throughout her life so far, which again diagnosed the many types of seizures she has. Dr. Wilensky's staff had advised her to call 911 to go to the ER, which she did. She was instructed to have the ER doctor call them, with a number they gave Christina, and to make arrangements to have her flown to Harborview, if needed. The ER doctor apparently did not like that, and told Christina to leave, without any work-up or care. Christina requested a different doctor and a patient's advocate. In response the non-caring doctor called the police to have her removed from the ER. The policeman told her to get out of the bed, and she tried to cooperate, but went into a seizure, falling back on the bed. The policeman grabbed her arm, pulling her out of the bed. In the process he damaged her shoulder and neck, and caused her to land on her feet which have both been recently operated on 3 times and are still trying to heal correctly. Her feet were hurt and damaged and she screamed in pain from the abusive, sedistic, arm pulling which resulted in trauma to the arm, shoulder, and neck, as well as her feet. Then she felt nauseaous and reached toward to the wall dispenser for a vomit bag and the policeman forcefully hit her other arm with his fist, not allowing her to get the bag. She again screamed from the new pain of her other arm being hit so hard. She kept falling down because she was still very much disoriented, confused, and unstable from her seizure(s) and the relentless headache, which had been diagnosed a few days earlier when she was taken by ambulance to the same ER for the same reasons, by had a caring doctor who treated her correctly, even though failing to follow standard procedures of care and testing by not taking a cat scan, blood work, or UA, which her family doctor, local neurologist, and Harborview Epilepsy Center had requested when advising her to go to the emergency room, four days in a row while my husband and I were in Seattle where I had surgery at Swedish Hospital leaving home on Monday and returning Thursday night. The policeman continued man-handling her limp body and threw her into a wheelchair without leg and foot rests. He told her to pick up her feet because they were dragging under the wheelchair backwards, but she had no body control to be able to follow his orders. He said she could let her feet drag behind her under the wheelchair because he did not care. He called her a baby and told her act her age when she cried and was terrorized. Her records show clearly that she was in a coma in 2004, declared brain dead, somehow came back but lost 20 years of memory and has daily short-term memory loss and multiple kinds of seizures, including life-threatening grandmal seizures. She looks like a 37 year old woman, but is very much like a 12 year old child when put in stressful situations. She was terrified, feared for her life, and could not understand anything clearly. The officer told her to leave the hospital, go out into the cold, rainy night, with no transportation. She asked to call her parents but could not understand how to operate the pay phone or remember our cell phone numbers. The policeman told her that no one wanted to talk to her so she was on her own and if she did not leave the hospital he was going to arrest her. She somehow left a message on our home phone. As soon as my husband heard the message he called the hospital and told them to keep her there and safe until he could drive the 25 miles to get there. During the wait the policeman intimidated Christina by standing behind her, jingling coins and keys, and threatening her to leave immediately or be arrested. When my husband arrived the policeman attempted to intimidate him by puffing himself up and threatening to arrest them both if they did not leave immediately. My husband took out his notebook and began collecting names and titles. He spoke with the head nurse. When finished he took Christina to our car and brought her home. She was emotionally damaged as much as she was physically damaged, and the brain swelling, headache, and seizures were not treated. The next morning deep bruise marks were showing on both arms and both feet. Her shoulder and neck were in tremendous pain. Her entire body hurt from the abuse, mishandling, torture, and trauma she had experienced. My husband drove her to Olympia WA, to the Capital Mall Hospital emergency room where she received kind and caring evaluation of all her injuries. The staff consulted with the doctor at Harborview Epilepsy Center and they determined an appropriate course of treatment. It was determined that she did not have to be airlifted to Harborview with this treatment plan being provided in this ER. X-rays and a Cat Scan were taken of her brain, arms, and feet. A suspicious spot was found on the Cat Scan that may explain why she was having so many seizures, headache, and brain swelling. It needs to be further evaluated, which she has an appointment with her Neurologist to do. The injuries inflicted by the policeman are severe, but no bones were broken. The bruising is massive and was documented with photographs and medical records by us and the Olympia ER staff. On Saturday my husband took Christina to the local Westport Fire Station to meet with the ambulance crew. Christina is well-known in Westport and everyone on the ambulance crews knows her medical history and has taken care of her dozens of times since we moved here after her coma. They call her their 'miracle girl' and always tell her how much they enjoy her and her always cooperative and happy nature, regardless of how much pain or distress she may be in at any time. The ambulance crew was devastated to learn that Christina was abused by the doctor, nurses, aids, and policeman at the emergency room they took her to on Thursday evening. They documented everything and reported the situation to the local city police department. The Westport police came and was equally upset. He took statements and then called a County Sheriff to the fire station. The Sheriff also took statements and made a report. On Monday (today), 3/15/2010, Christina was seen and evaluated by her family physician, Dr. Jackson, her foot surgeon, Dr. Tronvig, and her Chiropractor, Dr. Failor. They are all shocked and disgusted at what they saw. They all know Christina to be a sweet, trusting, loving child who has survived unimaginable odds and is always happy and thankful. Like us, they cannot fathom how this horrible abuse, neglect, and trauma could have happened to her. Why would anyone want to hurt her this way? Tomorrow she has an appointment to see Dr. Miller, her local Neurologist in Aberdeen. He will do his evaluation of the damages and follow-up on her seizure and headache conditions. He will determine if she needs to begin phychological counseling, either as an out-patient or as an in-patient, because Christina is so severely traumatized now. Coming out of the coma knowing that her doctors fought with us to try to get us to sign papers to allow them to euthanize her and harvest anything viable when she was in her locked-in coma, hearing everything but unable to respond was bad enough, but this added to that is simply too much. She has an appointment to see Dr. Wilensky at Harborview Epileptic Center on March 26, 2010 for further evaluation. I want to stress that Christina was following her doctor's orders to call the ambulance each time she went to the ER while my husband and I were away. Her doctors called her each day, several times a day, to ask how she was doing and to supervise her care while she was home alone. At no time was she seeking 'drugs', as the ER doctor flattly told her and labeled her. At no time did she resist the officer or do anything to warrent him putting his hands on her or drag her feet under the wheelchair. Dr. Wilensky called a prescription of pain pills into the pharmacy for her on Friday to take for her head pain, but she declined to pick up the prescription because she does not like to take pain pills as they make her very sick to her stomach and alter her thinking and feelings. She may take what is prescribed to her at an ER for pain while she is there, but does not want to take it at home. Her foot doctor says that her feet will heal, but her foot surgery recovery has been set back by at least another two weeks due to the damages the officer caused her. The bruises will eventually heal and the pain from them will fade away with time. Her shoulder and neck injuries will heal with the care of the Chiropractor. But Christina's trust in the emergency room at Aberdeen and the police there has been shattered and can never be repaired. The Westport ambulance crew said that they will take her to Willapa Hospital ER from now on, which is about twice the distance, but they no longer trust the Gray's Harbor Hospital ER to take appropriate care of Christina again.
