Easton Royal is accused of not checking on patients at Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn, New York, and of claiming on hospital forms he had observed numerous psychiatric patients when he had not, Hynes said in a statement.

Royal may face up to 11 years in prison, according to Hynes. It was not immediately clear whether Royal has a lawyer. Royal was suspended immediately after Green's death. He later resigned. Royal was indicted based on evidence from an investigation by the Brooklyn District Attorney's office into Green's death. Schmetterer would not say if any other hospital employees are likely to be indicted. Green, 49, died of a blood clot when she was left unattended for nearly 24 hours at the hospital in June 2008.

Thursday-today I read about She escaped her native Guinea under difficult circumstances and made a new life in New York with her 15-year-old daughter. She didn't have many employment options and was grateful for her job at the plush Sofitel hotel. Not many details are known publicly about the woman who says Strauss-Kahn, the head of the International Monetary Fund and a major player in French politics, sexually assaulted her in that hotel suite. She held on to her belief in American ideals. This was a place where the law did not differentiate between the rich and poor, between the powerful and those who had nothing. It was different from her native country. She is still young, only 32. People think of her as intelligent and dignified -- someone who is sensitive to the needs of others and devoted wholly to her daughter.

Both sides started with 10 such options each, not counting scores of others whom Orange County Chief Judge Belving Perry Jr. had excluded for financial or personal hardships or other reasons.

On Today’s news I read about how Mexic’s Sinaloa state has named a new target in the government’s war on organized crime : bars, restaurants, and night clubs that play “ narco corridors”. Even though they might have their licenses, if they find them singing corridors their licenses will be revoked, according to new rules published in the state’s official register. The popular ballads, known as narcocorridos, tell of shootings, police, chase, and armored cars. Federal lawmakers have suggested banning them, but the proposals haven’t passes. Elijah Wald, author of the book, “Narcocorrido”, a journey into the Music of Drugs, Guns, and Guerrillas,” has documented dozens of past attempts by politicians to stop the songs.

In Friday’s morning blog I read about The 1973 War Powers Act, which says if the president does not get congressional authorization 60 days after military action, the mission must stop within 30 days. The president formally notified Congress about the mission in Libya with a letter on March 21, which makes Friday the 60-day deadline. This can be civil. And now the president has to have a debate and confer of how he is breaking the law.

But the libyan leaders forces continued their heavy shelling of dehiba on the Tunisian border where thousands of refugees have amassed in recent weeks.
Today I read an article called Prices at gas pump painful for 4 in 10 Americans. In this article it talk about how the gas gallon goes 4 dollars a gallon now. Overall in the poll, 71 percent said rising prices will cause some hardship for them and their family, including 41 percent who called it a "serious" hardship. Just 29 percent said rising prices are not causing a negative impact on their finances. The share of seniors expressing financial hardship over gas prices is 76 percent; it was 68 percent in March. Many Americans are cutting back on driving anywhere because of the gas prices. Since January, gas prices have shot up about 90 cents, with the national average for a gallon of regular this week at $3.96. But analysts say relief is coming pretty soon. Fred Rozell, retail pricing director at the Oil Price Information Service, expects the price of gas to drop as much as 40 cents in the next four weeks. Until that happens, Ross Cobb in Boerne, Texas, will still try to keep his highway miles down. He says he and his wife have been driving less and curbing trips into the city for their children's clothing and other supplies. I just hope that the gas price goes down.

Today I read an article called Predictor of May 21 doomsday to watch it on TV. Harold Camping, 89 predicts that the world will end on may 21st and judgment day will come. He had before made a prediction Jesus Christ would return 1994 but he was wrong. The head of the Christian radio network Family Stations Inc says that he is sure an earthquake will shake the Earth on May 21, sweeping true believers to heaven and leaving others behind to be engulfed in the world's destruction over a few months. Camping, a civil engineer who once ran his own construction business, plans to spend May 21 with his wife in Alameda, in northern California, and watch the doomsday unfold. As a believer, I'm already a kook compared to most people, so for someone to choose a date and get everyone excited about a certain time, my problem is it makes us look worse," said Jenkins, 61. Atheists are reacting to Camping's pronouncement in their own way. I don’t know what to believe but I guess we will wait and see what really happens on may 21st.
