(This data Professor Antony Flew Business seems unrelated but will figure strongly later in the complaint.) Wendy McCants-Thomas Lawrence Anthony James Paicopolos Lloyd McPhee Nickolai Pavlovsky Roberto Santos Professor Anatoli Prokopenko Religion During this period while she was involved in the dispute with the Gayle Ruzicka Reverend Doctor Jim Nicholls state over her job and was experiencing great exhaustion, she Joel Turtel additionally experienced three terrible emotional shocks: 1) In March 2002, her best friend was murdered by her husband. 6616 SUNSET BOULEVARD • LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90028 • (323) 467-4242 • FAX (323) 467-3720 Internet Address: http://www.cchr.org • E-Mail Address: [email protected] 2 2) In April 2002, her car was vandalized with death threats and racial epithets on DMR property during a hearing on her case. 3) She was sterilized by her Ob-Gyn to handle her menstruation complications, but it didn’t change anything. This combination of events and conditions was emotionally overwhelming to Ms. Blake and she sought the help of a psychiatrist. None she contacted were willing to take her as a patient, fearing that they would be called to testify in her labor dispute. Only Peter Benet agreed to take her on. In 2003, she began treatment with Dr. Benet, which consisted solely of drugs. Benet prescribed her Lamictal (anti-seizure drug), Risperdol (anti-psychotic drug), Xanax (tranquilizer), Effexor (antidepressant), Lithium (mood stabilizer) and Ambien (for insomnia). Despite her emotional condition following the aforementioned emotional shocks, Ms. Blake had been a fully functioning person, able to work and raise her son. After beginning treatment with Dr. Benet, she could neither function, nor care for her child. She just cried all the time. Despite her emotional upsets, Ms. Blake never considered suicide. However, after being on the enormous amount of drugs prescribed by Dr. Benet, Ms. Blake states, ”I told him the medications made me feel more depressed, explosive and suicidal. Right in front of my son, I went to take the whole bottle of Xanax so my family would not have to deal with my crying anymore.” She had known from the start that Xanax was highly addictive and asked Dr. Benet if there weren’t some alternative he could prescribe. He would not budge on the Xanax and in fact kept increasing her dosages of the tranquilizer. In late August 2004, she read an article about low thyroid and found she was exhibiting many of the symptoms: heavy menstrual flow, chills, fatigue, hair loss, mood swings. She told Benet that she was suffering from low thyroid and asked to have her medications changed. He noted the low thyroid in her medical record but no prescription changes were ever made. Benet changed her diagnosis in response to side effects brought on by the drugs he prescribed her. This is an additional misdiagnosis to the failure to recognize her low thyroid condition. Initially diagnosed with “post-traumatic stress disorder,” by July 2004, he changed it to “bipolar.” But she realized that it was only the drugs that were making her that way but Dr. Benet was unable or unwilling to observe the obvious changes that began coincident with the drugs. She sought a second opinion at University of Connecticut Health Center, where she was seen by psychiatrist Debra Johnson. Dr. Johnson disagreed with the Benet’s diagnosis (as did her psychotherapist, Dave Johnson, who worked in Benet's office). Dr. Johnson weaned Ms. Blake down to just .5mg of Xanax. She is currently working to get entirely off the Xanax, which is a highly addictive drug. Dr. Johnson was aware that Ms. Blake had experienced three terrible tragedies in a six-month period. She stated that Ms. Blake was suffering from anxiety— which is understandable considering the circumstances—and that she was in no way bipolar. Ms. Blake’s symptoms—fatigue, heavy menstrual flow, mood swings, etc.—all disappeared when she started treatment with a synthetic hormone—proof that the real underlying cause of her troubles was hormonal and that she was never “bipolar” or suffering from “post-traumatic stress disorder.” 3 Ms. Blake and CCHR now call up on the Connecticut Medical Examining Board to investigate these allegations, as we believe Dr. Benet’s treatment of Ms. Blake fell below the standard of care. Ms. Blake can be reached at 29 Oakwood Road, Manchester, CT 06040-3207. Sincerely, Steve Wagner Director of Litigation & Prosecution .

  • FWB Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES "We need to talk." "We're heading in different directions." "You deserve better than me." "Let's stay friends." Dylan (JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE) and Jamie (MILA KUNIS) certainly aren't in a settling-down frame of mind. When New York-based executive recruiter Jamie trains her considerable headhunting skills on luring hotshot LA-based art director Dylan to take a dream job in the Big Apple, they quickly realize what kindred spirits they are. They've each been through so many failed relationships that they're both ready to give up on love and focus on having fun. So when Dylan relocates to New York and the pair start hanging out regularly, they share plenty of laughs over a twin belief that love is a myth propagated by Hollywood movies. That's when these two begin a deliciously sexy, decidedly grown-up experiment. Could these two fast friends – who are successful, unattached, and scornful of commitment - explore new terrain? If they add casual "no emotions" sex to their friendship, can they avoid all the pitfalls that come with thinking about someone else as more than just a pal? As two people weaned on the disappointing promises of romantic comedies, Dylan and Jamie shouldn’t be entirely surprised when their bold move becomes a bawdy, sexy ride into uncharted territory, exposing much more of themselves than they ever thought they'd get to see. Friends with Benefits stars Justin Timberlake (The Social Network), Mila Kunis (Black Swan), Patricia Clarkson (Easy A), Jenna Elfman (“Dharma & Greg”), Bryan 1 Greenberg (“How to Make It in America”), with Richard Jenkins (Dear John) and Woody Harrelson (2012).

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elf Struck by Jenna Castille Jennalla Deemspring. Jennalla Deemspring was a high elven ranger. She was stationed with a small group of high elven survivors near the ruined Lordaeron palace gardens when the death knight Arthas returned to Lordaeron, took back control of the kingdom, and ordered the Scourge to exterminate all remaining survivors. Arthas, along with Kel'Thuzad and Sylvanas Windrunner, may have come upon Jennalla and made quick work of her and her brethren. [1] Contents. Trivia. In Warcraft III: Classic , she uses the same model as Sylvanas, the only difference being the color of her team making her cloak yellow. Jennalla Deemspring is named after Jennifer Deem, the then-girlfriend of David Fried, level designer of the mission she appeared in. Speculation. Whether she and her elves were high or blood elves is unclear but it is possible that they were high elves who were not in Quel'Thalas when Arthas destroyed it; or they could be elves who didn't accept the sin'dorei name. Alternatively, she and her brethren could have become the sin'dorei and left the elven kingdom afterwards. It's also possible they weren't even full elves at all, since the Ranger model that Jennalla was based on was intended to be half-elf. Bodhi Elfman. Bodhi Pine Elfman (born Bodhi Pine Saboff ) is an American actor, producer, writer, and director. Contents. Biography. Elfman was born as Bodhi Pine Saboff in Los Angeles, California.
