For better or worse, its over. PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - Terri Schiavo, the severely brain-damaged woman who spent 15 years connected to a feeding tube in an epic legal and medical battle that went all the way to the White House and Congress, died Thursday, 13 days after the tube was removed. She was 41. Schiavo died at the Pinellas Park hospice where she lay for years while her husband and her parents fought over her in the nation's longest, most bitter --� and most heavily litigated --� right-to-die dispute. The feud between the parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, and their son-in-law continued even after her death: The Schindlers' spiritual advisers said the couple had been at their daughter's bedside minutes before the end came, but were not there at the moment of her death because Michael Schiavo did not want them in the room. "And so his heartless cruelty continues until this very last moment," said the Rev. Frank Pavone. He added: "This is not only a death, with all the sadness that brings, but this is a killing, and for that we not only grieve that Terri has passed but we grieve that our nation has allowed such an atrocity as this and we pray that it will never happen again." Update: Ugh. Attorney for Michael Schiavo, George Felos, held a news conference, Thursday at 2:30 p.m. ET. Although he did not say which comments had upset him, Felos chastised a Schindler priest's statements by saying they were "filled with venom" and that his statements were "counterproductive" and "disquieting". Felos also said that Terri Schiavo's death was "beautiful" and that she died a "gentle death". Last time I checked there was nothing beautiful or gentle about starving/dehydrating to death....

(Los Angeles-WABC, March 29, 2005) --� Eyewitness News has learned that famed attorney Johnny Cochran has died after battling an illness. Cochran began his legal career in the Los Angeles District Attorney's office. He later started his own firm, becoming one of the best known trial lawyers in the country. He was Michael Jackson's attorney in the 1990s and brokered the multi-million dollar settlement in the first child sex abuse case against the pop star. Of course, he was also the head of O.J. Simpson's defense team. This is why I could never be a defense attorney. After a lifetime of work, what will Johnny Cochran be remembered for the most? Brokering settlements between a pedophile and his victims and getting a murderous ex-football player off multiple murder charges. Update: If the coffin fits, you must submit....

(03-28) 12:05 PST Norwich, N.Y. (AP) -- A man and a teenager have been charged with forcibly tattooing an obscenity on the forehead of a 17-year-old boy, police said Monday. Officer Craig Berry declined to describe the tattoo, except to say it was a phrase. "It's just ludicrous that someone would do something like this to another person," Berry said. Kenneth D. Peer, 23, and a 17-year-old boy were charged with assault and unlawful imprisonment. Police were withholding the name of the 17-year-old, who was charged as a youthful offender, Berry said. The two were in jail in lieu of $25,000 bail. A court hearing was scheduled for Tuesday in the the upstate New York town. The victim --� whose name also was withheld by police --� walked into the police station Friday to file a complaint against his attackers. The victim told officers he had been held down by a man and another teen at a Norwich residence while they forcibly tattooed the vulgarity. Poor kid. Talk about humiliation. Still, anyone else curious as to what the mystery phrase was?...
