Northwestern Memorial Hospital blamed for suicide
2009-11-03 22:47:00 The estate of a woman who committed suicide is suing Northwestern Memorial Hospital for wrongful death. On August 5, 2004, Marilee Graham became a patient of the hospital and on August 6, 2004, she committed suicide, the complaint states. The complaint asserts that Northwestern Memorial Hospital "carelessly and negligently left [Marilee] alone in a room with the means and opportunity to commit suicide." The complaint also states that Marilee Graham had numerous risk factors for suicide, including her recent suicide attempt, which the hospital failed to consider. Read the complaint after the jump.

Michael Jackson Memorial Tickets
2009-07-07 08:26:00 Michael Jackson's concerts always were difficult to get tickets to, but that's nothing compared to the pop star's memorial service. On eBay, bids for tickets for Tuesday's event were reaching as high as $3,000, though it was impossible to verify the seriousness of those bids.More than 1.6 million fans registered online for a chance to attend, and only 8,750 names were chosen _ each of whom received two free tickets. Demand for the tickets was likely to only increase after representatives for Jackson's family released a list of participants Monday.Even the rejection notices fans received informing them that they had not won tickets to the memorial service were being auctioned. For a dollar or two, some on eBay offered to forward a copy of their rejection e-mail as "a collector's piece for a fan."Michael Jackson Memorial Tickets

Memorial Day Headlines/Open Thread
2009-05-25 16:07:00 I think I finally figured it out. This year's version of the Cubs wasn't content to just go out and be in first from wire-to-wire on its way to another NL Central championship. Instead, they wanted to fall behind, create some adversity, then rise above for the final triumph. I hope the rising above comes soon, because I think we're all sick of the falling behind, which continued with a 7-2 loss yesterday. "I don't think we're going to start backpedaling," losing pitcher Ted Lilly said. "I guess I kind of feel like we've been slapped around a little the last week. [We're] embarrassed. There's been times where an opposition sees a club that's struggling, it's almost like smelling weakness, and I think they're doing everything they can to take advantage of what we're doing and how we're scuffling right now. "And they're going to continue to do that, continue to come after us, be aggressive on us, steal bases when they get the opportunities. We're goin...

Decoration Day - Memorial Day
2009-05-25 09:01:00 Again I find myself thinking about Memorial Day and where it comes from, and its connection to the blues. I have heard songs by several of the prewar bluesmen like Sonny Boy Williamson I, that mention Decoration Day. So I thought I would do a little research on the topic.Here is just a bit of what I found;Some sites mistakenly credit Howlin Wolf as the writer of this song and say that Sonny Boy Williamson II (Rice Miller) covered his version. But I remembered hearing a version of the song titled Decoration Blues done by Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee Williamson) which made me think that the song had an eairlier orgin.Decoration Blues Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee)(John Lee Williamson)Sonny Boy Williamson I - vocals & harmonicaYank Rachell - mandolin & guitarJoe Williams - guitarRecorded March 13, 1938 Aurora, Illinois, Leland HotelAlbum: Bluebird Recordings 1937-1938Lord, I had a womanShe was nice lovin' in ev'ry wayLord, I had a womanShe was nice lovin' in ev'ry wayLord...

Memorial Day in Texas: secession wasn't Perry's point at all
2009-05-25 06:51:00 By raising states' rights at a tea bag event, then backing away ASAP assuring everybody it’s just really, really just a discussion about federalism and the role of local vs national government, has Governor Rick Perry sent his signal to those who hear it another way? It didn't stay off the radar, but if the message was received does he care? Some of us still vividly recall George Wallace flanked by Alabama State Troopers, and an era when states' rights was just the PC way to say "segregation is our vision."Try surveying Texans on Memorial Day, or the 4th of July, and I guarantee they won't be talking about seceding, they're proud to be Americans. If you ask them about Bush cutting taxes on the rich while shorting armor for Americans in Iraq they won't defend him much more than anybody else in the GOP, either.You might think it was just a ploy for exposure by their current Governor - Perry's back-walking the rhetoric as hard and fast as he can, certainly. But was it really ...
