	obituaries (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		An obituary is a notice of the death of a person, usually published in a newspaper, written or commissioned by the newspaper, and usually including a short biography.
		These obituaries are very popular with some readers (who enjoy reading about friends and strangers beyond routine obituaries), although others believe they deviate from what they view as an obituary's true purpose â“ to acknowledge a death and provide information such as funeral details.
		Obituaries are a notable feature of The Economist, which publishes precisely one full-page obituary per week, reflecting on the subject's life and influence on world history.

		It is not the typical listing of the end of matures lives, with lists of awards and recognitions upon retirement.
		Yet when all is said and done these obituaries reveal each person to be a son, a daughter, a mother, a father, a grandparent, a husband, a wife, a companion, a friend-cherished by someone, somewhere.
		Whether the obituary is written for one of the unsuspecting victims of September 11 or for one of the perpetrators of terror, the stories of thousands of lives will be told for posterity in this volume of obituaries.

	Obituary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In many cases, an Obituary is one of the few times a person's name appears in a newspaper.
		"Custom obituaries" frequently include fond memories of the deceased, expanded Information about Hobbies and other activities in his/her life, etc. Frequently, such notices use euphemisms for the term "died" (e.g., passed away, went to be with his/her Lord, etc.), often to soften the blow of one's passing.
		Most premature obituaries are accidental and concern well known personalities (such as Mark Twain and Bob Hope).

	Penn State Libraries / News and Microforms Library / finding obituaries
		Obituaries for prominent or famous people usually include an account of their accomplishments in life.
		Though obituaries contain some biographical information (e.g., birth date, family members), a biography is usually much more detailed and will focus on a person’s personal life, character, career, influence on his or her contemporaries or on history.
		Obituary writers in America tend to favor an emphasis on the person’s life and achievements—a memorial tribute to a life well lived.

	The Smoking Gun: Archive
		APRIL 16--While all news organizations prepare obituaries in advance of the deaths of famous individuals, the folks at CNN inadvertently gave the Internet-surfing public a chance to preview how the network's web site would note the demise of Vice President Dick Cheney, Ronald Reagan, and a few other prominent figures.
		The premature obituaries, housed in a publicly accessible area of the CNN server and searchable via Google, were apparently the work of Peter Rentz, a senior multimedia designer at CNN.
		The mock-ups are virtually identical to the obituary design currently used by CNN when a notable person dies (click here to see how CNN covered the Queen Mother's March 2002 death).

	Obituary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"Custom obituaries" frequently include fond memories of the deceased, expanded information about hobbies and other activities in his/her life, etc. Frequently, such notices use euphemisms for the term "died" (e.g., passed away, went to be with his/her Lord, etc.), as to soften the blow of one's death.
		This is mainly due to the influence of Hugh Massingbird, the former obituary editor of the Daily Telegraph, whose acerbic, biting style has been copied by obituary writers at many newspapers, including The Times, The Guardian, and The Independent.
		In this regard, some people will seek to have an unsuspecting newspaper editor publish a premature death notice or obituary out of malice, perhaps to gain revenge on the "deceased" or to obtain a financial settlement they believe they are entitled to.

	Premature births a growing issue - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
		Women carrying multiple fetuses such as twins or triplets often have premature births, but even a woman with a single fetus who has taken fertility drugs is twice as likely as other women to deliver prematurely.
		And although poor women, with traditionally less access to quality heath care, face higher-than-average rates of prematurity, the same is true of fl women no matter what their income or educational level, Simhan said.
		Direct costs to employers for a premature birth are almost $42,000 -- 15 times that of a healthy, full-term delivery.

		Last week, the district's chief executive officer, Paul Vallas, and the School Reform Commission's Nevels said that $21 million in cuts were needed to fill a deficit left over from last year's budget and that at least $50 million in cuts were needed to re-establish a reserve fund.
		Cecilia Cummings, a district spokeswoman, said yesterday it was premature to talk about specific cuts because Vallas and his staff have not yet given their proposals to the reform commission.
		"The list came from a huge master list of ideas generated by the consulting group [Public Financial Management] and the staff in what was a brainstorm that far exceeds the amount of cuts that we would need to make," she added.

	Opinion: Removing doubt from voter list
		The state recently sent local elections supervisors a list of more than 40,000 Florida residents who could be disqualified from voting because they have been linked, at least tentatively, to felony conviction records.
		It is difficult to prove a negative, of course, and those targeted incorrectly could still lose their vote for failing to respond because of a bad address, misunderstanding or intimidation.
		The state calls the names on the list a "potential match" to criminal records, but the serious act of disenfranchisement should be based on more than maybe.

	Premature birth tops list for infant mortality
		ATLANTA — Premature birth is now considered the leading cause of infant mortality in the United States — more than a third of all infant deaths, scientists reported today in a new study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
		Of those, two-thirds were born prematurely, Callaghan said, but only 17 percent of the deaths were classified as caused by prematurity.
		Drug use during pregnancy could be a cause of premature births, as could modern infertility treatments that often produce multiple births and smaller fetuses, alcohol use, or women having children at older ages than in the past, he said.

		Her obituaries compiled a fascinating hodgepodge of accolades, minor scandals, and resurrected grudges, scattered among potshots and praise.
		One of the common traits of her obituaries is the use of paradoxical descriptions, of which this is the most elaborate example, as if she can be summoned or summarized only by contradiction.
		Her obituaries note this thusly: “Sontag had a gift for cultivating men of influence and intellectual power.” It was a gift she used, they should add, quite discriminately—and it’s not as if there were any women of influence to cultivate.

		Cynthia Hirsch, Wisconsin's assistant attorney general, said Friday that while she thinks the state law is "strong and good," there's always a possibility of a legal challenge, even with a law that closes "loopholes" to address the federal court's ruling.
		Mike Wittenwyler, the attorney representing the coalition, said his side was not arguing against the existence of the list, but merely that the state Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection overstepped the bounds of the statutes when adopting rules governing it.
		For example, the law governing the no-call list allows for telemarketing calls from companies to "current clients," but it does not define what a current client is. But in trying to define that term in its rules, the agriculture department goes too far, the suit contends.
