...Kevorkian had no real defense. The videotape clearly showed him injecting the lethal dose into Youk, and the judge told the jury that sympathy for either the patient or the doctor was no excuse. Prosecutor John Skrzynski was unrelenting in plucking the feathers of the self-described angel of mercy. He called Kevorkian "a medical hit man in the night with a bag of poison to do his job." And he said, "There are 11 million souls buried in Europe that can tell you that when you make euthanasia a state policy, some catastrophic things can evolve from that...

...anticipation for the new Star Wars prequel due out this spring. Wing Commander earns the reputation of a pathetic wannabe by attempting to mimic the Force made famous by Star Wars. The movie loses even more credibility through a contrived and overstated romance between Blair and his commanding officer Angel Devereaux, played by Saffron Burrows of Circle of Friends fame...
