Well, looks like Larry King gets her... and it looks like he isn't paying her either. There was so much bad publicity, (about interview costs) she realized she wouldn't get to tell her side unless she did it for free.. quote- BEIJING, June 25 (Xinhuanet) -- Jailed socialite Paris Hilton will give her first post-prison interview on veteran CNN newsman Larry King's show on Wednesday, the cable network has confirmed. King would interview Hilton in a one-hour special on Wednesday, just 24 hours after the 26-year-old star is released from prison in Los Angeles, a spokeswoman said Saturday. The show, "Larry King Live," does not pay for interviews. I also saw that People may have an interview, not sure if it's still on. The photos were $300,000... Would be nice if she would donate the money to help drunk drivers... Here is a link that might be useful: news article

I always hated getting that one back x-ray with the film. It always hurt. But I got through it. Now, they have digital x-rays. There is no film. It's a big plastic thing that has no give to it and hurts like heck. This thing made me cry. It was so painful. I could not even do it. And they kept trying and trying and it was cutting the bottom of my mouth. They made me feel really stupid and were very threatening because they said, well your insurance isn't going to cover it unless you take this x-ray. So here I am in the car crying and trying to find out if anybody else has this problem. Of course I should know by now that if I have a problem a lot of people have a problem. It's never just me. Has anyone experienced this digital x-ray bs? How do I get through this? I asked for a smaller one. they said they didn't have one. They only had one size. I said how can that be when everyone has different sized mouths?

What do I store in our pantry? Extra flour, sugar, etc - baking supplies. Extra canned stuff - we don't use a whole lot of it, but some canned stuff, like tomato sauce, is useful. Packaged soups. Cereal (my dh eats cornflakes every morning). Paper products - TP and paper towels. Extra cleaning supplies. We have an extra freezer - I freeze fruit and veggies - we grow a lot and I also buy it at the farm stands.I plan on starting to freeze milk this year. I prefer to freeze stuff rather than can it, so the freezer gets used! I'll be using our pantry/utility room storage more when we move to our new house since we'll be farther to affordable grocery stores than we were when we lived in our old house. When I go to the city, I'll mostly get stuff when it's on sale - buy 3 extra bags of flour if I see it at a great price, for instance. I also store extra kitchen equipment in the pantry - I have a food dehydrator that I store there, also canning supplies (I *do* can jelly). The pantry is my warehouse, I guess! I keep daily supplies in the kitchen, when we're running low on baking powder (for instance), I grab another can from the pantry, where I probably have at least 3 more cans - that I got on sale - stored. We don't have a pantry right now. It's temporary, thankfully.

Some of my knifes are hand wash only, as for the dishwasher I load all flatware with mouth part up but a knife point down since I have kids. Think if you read a manual it says to load flatware up for the same reasons some mentioned above. Sometimes kibble can collect in the bottom of the basket..plus its hard to get flatware clean if the spoons ect are nesting together and this is easier to watch out for if they face up...I didn't write the manuals but I do agree with this system. As for deco towels..nothing wrong in my eyes with making the bath pretty..but I'll tell you I'm one of the ones that have used the pretty deco towels in peoples homes, I washed and thought..no way I'm touching that community hand towel so I used the pretty deco towel even knowing it wasn't there for hand drying. This is exactly why I mounted a wicker basket onto the wall and loaded it with fresh clean facecloths and a wicker basket on the floor to toss them into . .I wonder how many people just don't dry because they want a clean towel. In my house everyone gets a clean one with each hand wash. I just buy the cheap white face cloths from Walmart 18 pk for 5 bucks..a full load weekly and they can be chemically or thermally sanitized. Worst part is rolling them all...haha
