( http://www.guardian.co.uk/worldlatest/story/0,1280,-3959639,00.html ) Enron Ex-CEO Skilling Taken to Hospital Friday April 9, 2004 9:16 PM By DONNA DE LA CRUZ Associated Press Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Former Enron CEO Jeffrey Skilling was taken to a hospital early Friday after several people called police saying he was pulling on their clothes and accusing them of being FBI agents, a police source told The Associated Press. Police found Skilling at 4 a.m. at the corner of Park Avenue and East 73rd Street and determined he might be an ``emotionally disturbed person,'' said the source, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity. Police did not charge Skilling with a crime. They took him to New York Presbyterian Hospital for observation. Hospital officials did not immediately return calls for comment. Messages left for Skilling's lawyers, Bruce Hiler and Dan Petrocelli, were not immediately returned. Skilling was at two bars in Manhattan - American Trash and The Voodoo Lounge - where he allegedly ran up to patrons and pulled open their clothes, the source said. ``He was shouting at them 'You're an FBI agent and you're following me,''' the source said. Skilling allegedly did the same thing to people on the street, the source added. He was with his wife at the time. Skilling was described as being intoxicated and highly uncooperative when he was approached by police, the source said. Skilling has been charged with fraud, insider trading and other crimes in the energy trader's colossal collapse. Skilling is accused of participating in widespread schemes to mislead government regulators and investors about the company's earnings. He has pleaded innocent to all 35 federal counts against him, and posted his $5 million bond with a cashier's check. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 10 Apr 2004 13:28:49 -0700 From: "Vallor" Subject: [loud-fans] Some remarks and the usual hawking Hey, Working backwards: I wanted to ask if anyone is regestered from the NY Times on line and could copy and email me Thurston Moore's piece on Kurt Cobain from this link: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/08/opinion/08MOOR.html I have regestered for too many things and my inbox has become a spam battleground in the past year. I'd rather not spill my personals again even though it's the NY Times. I haven't seen Wonderfalls, I'm hoping they don't cancel "Arrested Development", which I love and which is on the same chopping block as Wonderfalls. I can never understand Network TV's increasing unwillingness to nurture quality, whether it be these 2 shows or Freeks And Geeks, Andy Richter, etc., it all get's trashed in the end and the good stuff that lasts makes it a few years before it starts to suck mightly (West Wing). Only The Simpsons seems to hold it together. Regarding Sun Ra on eMusic, I breifly joined looking for Peter Laughner's Take The Guitar Player For A Ride (no longer there, but I found the CD right afterwards) and I used my free trial downloads on a load of Sun Ra. I like the free jazz stuff so I was really into the bent Ann Arbor festival recordings from the early 70's (Life Is Splendid & Outer Space Employment Agency) and a bridge album of material from the Chicago to New York move circa 1960 "Music From Tomorrow's World". The ESP release "Nothing Is" is on there and is fine. The Leo stuff is kind of later when Ra and the Arkestra moved to Philadelphia and started returning to his Duke Ellington-ian roots, this is less to my tastes. I don't believe my favorite material is on eMusic however and that is the early to mid-60's NYC era stuff like "Cosmic Tones For Mental Therapy", "Other Planes of There", "The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra 1 & 2", "The Magic City", etc. Some of this stuff was out on Evidence a few years ago two albums to the CD, but I believe Ra's estate sued and had them pulled and are reissuing them. If you're in the bay area Rasputin's less urban stores (Concord, Campbell, Newark, San Leandro, Vallejo) likely have a healthy selection of the Evidence issued ones for $8.95, they seem to have bought tons of them. I haven't listened to the Jazz Actual set "The Solar-Myth Approach" yet, but understand it is pretty fine and it is on eMusic. Also, I'm long out of date (I've been kinda slow lately), but I'll say it nonetheless: I agree that The Chill's Soft Bomb is a bit of a dud, however in addition to Male Monster From The Id, I really like "Double Summer" and "Song For Randy Newman, Etc." In around 1994, I ran into an A&R guy from Slash who I had worked with on an album I produced for the label in the late 80's. I was running into this guy subsequent to the label dropping The Chills and The Verlaines. He gave a blanket dismissal of Flying Nun and the NZ pop scene as useless since Slash couldn't break The Chills and Verlaines nationally in the US. This lead me to believe that, like the band I had worked with, the label got pretty heavily involved with the production of the bands 2nd record for the label. I was mostly spared this greif as I produced the band I was recording's 1st album, but I did receive "notes" that were -to me- petty and unnecessary and seemingly sent just so the label could feel they had contributed to the creative process. I understand they got more controlling after the first one. I think it's fair to assume that Slash got their meathooks deep in to the recording of Soft Bomb.
