Kate Winslet is the best actress in the business, and I don't think she gets enough recognition. Alan Rickman is also better than he gets credit for.

Queen lets the terrorists know what's up. . . Queen Says Bombers Won't Change Britain Fri Jul 8,12:24 PM ET LONDON - Queen Elizabeth II said Friday that the terrorist bombings in London "will not change our way of life." "Atrocities such as these simply reinforce our sense of community, our humanity, our trust in the rule of law. That is the clear message from us all," she told staff at the Royal London Hospital. The east London hospital was among those treating victims of the three subway explosions and one explosion on a bus on Thursday. The queen expressed her admiration for all the Londoners who "are calmly determined to resume their normal lives." "This is the answer to this outrage. Sadly we in Britain have been all too familiar with acts of terror and members of my generation, especially at this end of London, know that we have been here before," she said, referring to the Nazi air blitz of World War II. "But those who perpetrate these brutal acts against innocent people should know that they will not change our way of life."

I didn't agree with Kass. The Spanish people had been against the war for a long time. I don't think they pulled out because of the terrorist attacks. I think it's sad he can't give props to the British for their resolve and strength without knocking on someone else.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) I wouldn't think so, if anything I'd think they be more expensive, as Britain may put guards on planes etc., and with the rising cost of oil, and well inflation. Ahhhhh, good point. I was trying to remember airline prices after Sept. 11, but forgot about the extra guards and stuff....

So, I hope this doesn't sound really classless or callous--but I was wondering if people think flights to London will get cheaper. I'd love to go over and see my friends from my days in the UK--and just wondering if the flights might get more affordable. . .

Bush ends investigation of Micheal Schiavo. Hopefully it's over now. . . Gov. Jeb Bush Ends Schiavo Inquiry By DAVID ROYSE, Associated Press Writer Fri Jul 8, 4:19 AM ET TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Gov. Jeb Bush has declared an end to the state's inquiry into Terri Schiavo's collapse 15 years ago, after Florida's state attorney said there was no evidence that criminal activity was involved. Bush had asked State Attorney Bernie McCabe to investigate Schiavo's case after her autopsy last month. He said he now considers the state's involvement with the matter finished. "Based on your conclusions, I will follow your recommendation that the inquiry by the state be closed," Bush said in a two-sentence letter. In asking McCabe to look again into how Schiavo slipped into a persistent vegetative state, Bush had cited an alleged gap between when Schiavo's husband Michael found her and when he called 911. The governor had said the issue remained unsettled. McCabe said, however, that while such discrepancies may exist in the record, Schiavo's statements that he called 911 immediately had been consistent. "This consistency, coupled with the varying recollections of the precise time offered by other interested parties, lead me to the conclusion that such discrepancies are not indicative of criminal activity," McCabe wrote in a letter to Bush accompanying his report. The report was dated June 30, but not released until Thursday. The bitter right-to-die case engulfed the courts, Congress and White House, and divided the country. Terri Schiavo died March 31 from dehydration after her feeding tube was disconnected despite efforts by Bush, her parents and some state national lawmakers to keep her alive. Michael Schiavo had fought to have the tube disconnected, saying his wife wouldn't have wanted to be kept alive artificially. The autopsy left unanswered the question of why Terri Schiavo's temporarily heart stopped, cutting off oxygen to her brain. A medical examiner was unable to determine with reasonable certainty a "manner of death." McCabe said there must be some fact or evidence indicating a criminal act caused the death to open a full homicide investigation. He said the review revealed none. He added that the most likely cause of Schiavo's collapse remains the one already advanced — an eating disorder. David Gibbs, attorney for Schiavo's parents, said the report appeared rushed, noting that Bob and Mary Schindler were not interviewed by the state attorney's office. "We had thought they would meet with the family," he said. Michael Schiavo's attorney deferred comment until he had a chance to fully review the report.
