A 61-year old Roanoke woman ended her life, with the help of Dr. Jack Kevorkian--this according to the Oakland County, Michigan medical examiner's office.
But, one local doctor says it didn't have to end that way for Patricia Graham.

Dr. Jack Kevorkian apparently delivered Patricia Graham's body to the Southern Michigan hospital emergency room. An attached note read she suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis. Carilion officials say this incident should serve as a notice that society has to heighten its awareness of alternatives to physician-assisted suicide.
[SOT=13:08:22]
[IN Q=THAT WE NEED]
((CHARLES HITE/CARILION BIOMEDICAL ETHICS DIRECTOR; THAT WE NEED TO DO A BETTER JOB IN TRAINING AND EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT PAIN MANAGEMENT. ABOUT HOSPICE CARE, ABOUT COMFORT CARE IN GENERAL. THAT WE NEED TO SUPPORT THESE PEOPLE MORE. AND THAT THERE'S A REAL DANGER IF WE DON'T DO THAT.))
[RUNS=:12]

The medical examiner's office noted that Graham died of poisoning by lethal injection. Hite says the community has to do more to make pain management and comfort care more affordable.
[SOT=13:08:48]
[IN Q=THE DISENFRANCHISED]
((THE DISENFRANCHISED WILL BE THE ONES THAT HAVE PHYSICIAN ASSISTED SUICIDE BECAUSE THEIR LIVES ARE SEEN AS, SOMEHOW, MORE EXPENDABLE OR THERE JUST ISN'T ENOUGH EFFORT MADE TO GIVE THEM ALTERNATIVES.))
[RUNS=:11]
[OUT Q=ALTERNATIVES.]
Hite says what Kevorkian allegedly did for Graham differs from what most states recognize as a patient's right to refuse treatment, in which the patient basically dies of natural causes. In either case, such decisions ethically require a long-term doctor-patient relationship and a second medical opinion about the patient's condition. Hite recommends, at the least, that there should be some standards or guidelines in place to prevent physicians from making independent decisions. David Johnson, News 7.

Wood has certain characteristics that place it in high demand--
The 'character' of wood is pleasing to the eye, But that character causes problems .
[SOT 3:41:07]
((EARL KLINE: IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO BE CONSISTENT WITH IT, AND GET THE MOST VALUE OUT OF IT IN A MANUFACTURING PROCESS, WITH HIGH SPEED PRODUCTIONS. )) [RUNS:13]
Back in 1988, Earl Kline set out to solve that problem-- He and his researchers wanted to find a way to best use each piece of lumber.
[SOT 3:52:54]
((BRIAN BOND: WE CAN USE LESS TREES, PROCESS LESS LUMBER, FOR THE SAME PRODUCT. )) [RUNS:04]
It's becoming harder and harder for furniture manufacturers to find top quality hardwood.
So Virginia Tech Researchers set out to create a system that uses wood more efficiently.
[SOT 3:37:49]
((EARL KLINE: IN OTHER WORDS, WE WANT TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF A PIECE OF LUMBER. WE WANT TO USE THAT AS EFFICIENTLY AS POSSIBLE.)) [RUNS:05]
Kline came up with this solution:
Each piece of wood gets scanned three different ways.
One normal camera-- takes a visual image of each board.
A laser beam scans the texture of the board's surface,
And an X-ray looks INSIDE the board for hidden defects.
All that information is fed into a computer that then tells the operator how the board should be cut to avoid any defects.
(/////SOT/////)
[SOT 3:54:23]
((BRIAN BOND: WE'RE THE ONLY GROUP THAT HAS TAKEN THE SEVERAL DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES AND PUT THEM TOGETHER IN THE US FOR A MULTI SENSOR SYSTEM. )) [RUNS:09]
The system works so well its XRAYS picked up one board that was full of buckshot. A defect that would not have been caught by a human inspector.
And could have wreaked havoc on a saw blade.
The computer program that runs this system is called TENORS.

[VO-NAT]

Marine biologists rescued "JJ" the grey whale when she was barely a week old and gave her a place to stay at Sea World.
She quickly became the main attraction as scientists nursed her back to health with daily feedings of a specially-made forumla.
After a year-long effort, the scientists say she's ready to return to the deep blue sea.
They've scheduled her release for March 26th, in time for the annual migration grey whales make from California to Alaska.
Biologists hope JJ will find her family among the crowd.
