Full marks for creativity, but… Mr. Everest allegedly provided an employee at the hospital with forged letters from a California hospital to show that the applicants had been accepted into a second-year program. And he gave her a check for $4,000, followed by another check for $2,000. She reported him to hospital officials, and later told him she knew the letters were forged. He then allegedly gave her $6,000 for time to get a letter from a different hospital—which was also forged—and gave her $3,000 more before he was arrested. Geez. - Via Hospital Bribe...

Also waiting was 19-year-old film student Cameron Hollopeter, who began having a seizure. Autrey borrowed a pen and used it to keep Hollopeter’s jaw open. Understandably wobbly post-seizure, Hollopeter fell onto the tracks. Autrey saw the lights of the oncoming train, gave a stranger his daughters to hold, and jumped down. He protected Hollopeter by lying on top of him. The height of their bodies on top of each other is 20-1/2 inches; the t...

What a day! Even if I was a d-list celebrity with luggage from Kenya, and facial filler from Australia, ripping off Kathy Griffin shtick (and I apologize not after she ripped Oprah off by  naming a school after herself in Mexico with the wording and plaque exactly the same as hers),  I do have very d-list limitations. For starters, my feet are a mess and walking for miles and miles (48 hours here and I’m using imperial, how American) is difficult to do. Yesterday we decided to do a tacky tourist day today. I’ve really never been a tourist. I’ve spent a lot of time in NYC, and when here it was if I was living here, and there were excesses. Today’s excesses were in bad taste rather than bad judgement and easy money.

Again too much to blog about and too little time. However, I couldn't pass this up.A simple lesson from the Hero of Harlem that has universal application. Quoting Mr. Autrey, "Good things happen when you do good." Such a powerful and simple message.Tags: hero, Harlem, NYC (Source: Health Care Law Blog) Health Care Law Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=462987 Fri, 05 Jan 2007 11:07:00 +0100 462987
