That's the proposition that Kazmierazak has placed before the Florida appeals judges. Much of her evidence is stuffed into a scrapbook that she hugged to her chest during a court hearing last month. It includes a sperm-donor list, the stick from an early pregnancy test that still shows the positive lines indicating a baby had been conceived, ultrasound pictures of Zoey in the womb and a letter from Kazmierazak's former partner. It reads: "Thank you for having our beautiful little girl with me...You are her mommy and will always be. I will never do anything...
...dyed/Volkswagen van/hippie '60s, but not that mod/go-go boots/everybody's-a-photographer-or-in-a-band thing." For his new character's name, he thought of 007's Aston-Martin sports car. For the look, he borrowed Michael Caine's eyeglasses from The Ipcress File, Connery's thatchlike chest hair, the costumes from the Who's rock opera Quadrophenia and the grotty dentures he used in an SNL skit about sugar-filled British toothpaste. The supervillain, bald-pated Dr. Evil, was lifted from the Bond film You Only Live Twice, with Myers adding the pinky-sucking tic of his former...
Tarzan to the rescue! If not fiscally, then artistically. From the first images, the picture chest-thumps its narrative expertise. A shipwreck brings the baby Tarzan's parents to the jungles of East Africa; they die violently in a leopard attack; a baby gorilla is killed by the same leopard, Sabor; the grieving gorilla mother Kala (voiced by Glenn Close) discovers the humans' corpses and their living child; she saves the child from Sabor and decides to rear the human as her own; Kala's mate Kerchak (Lance Henriksen) gruffly, suspiciously accedes to her wish. All this--basically, the start...
...knew our mothers didn't have great lives. My mother had lots of energy and ability. She was a brilliant bridge and mah-jongg player, a good golfer and hostess, head of the women's division of the community chest, etc. But I didn't want to be like my mother. Women in my generation had to be self-made. We were the first women to move into careers and autonomy. The energy released by the move to women's equality was stronger than that released by the H-bomb...
Most children's hospitals offer an operating-room tour before surgery to demystify the process. Some programs even have child specialists act out the operation on a doll or stuffed animal, demonstrating how the anesthesia mask fits over the face or where the EKG "stickers" are attached to the chest. It can be a good idea to play operating room at home as well. (You can get doctor's kits from most toy retailers.) But don't force this or any other information on your child if he or she doesn't seem receptive...
