Could it be Kimmer trying to run the Boot Camp section since it limits calories? We all know how Kimmer loves to cut the calories for others.

I had to throw in this picture I just got of my brother's triplets.

adorable!

I just wrote Glasbergen and told him.

I wonder how Mr. Glasbergen would feel about that?

On his website, you can purchase his cartoons for use on your site. I wonder if Kimmer did that?

It sure is a Glasbergen: http://www.glasbergen.com/images/fit4.gif

And the signature was indeed edited out.

Seems to me that if they had paid, they'd have the signature there. No need to get one without attribution. Right?

I have been slow the last few days.

A friend reminded me of how much I enjoyed showing my Boo-Bees at Halloween. LOL...

Here's to you and your sleuthing, you've been doing a great job.

good point

LadyJ · 10-17-2007, 04:35 PM

Honeybee.....I want one!!! There are 3 of them....I only want 1!!!! Please..

That little trio is sooooo cute!

That is just the sweetest picture...triplets..WOW.

Katinsac · 10-17-2007, 04:40 PM

Someone asked if Dr Mark would do the chat room and Tippy asked him if he'd consider maybe 30 min a week. Here is his answer:

Sorry for the delay, this post snuck by me!

It has taken me a week to get on top of things here. This is a much different format than I am used to working in.

My practice has always been one where I really get to know my patients, their families, and their needs and motivations. I am starting to get a feel for that on this forum.

I might be up for something like that in the future. It could be advertised so everyone could join in.

It still is on the website. If you look at newsletters 2-8, you will find it scrolling back and forth with her "before" photo. And yes, the chair photo was the "cover picture" on the home page until Lesya showed up.

I think you HAVE to keep the signature! I'll bet she just hijacked it.

Katinsac · 10-17-2007, 04:49 PM

wonder how long before Dr Mark and the Fitness Guru get in a fight over their answers over there...Dr Mark is going into the work out zone and answering questions after the Guru answered them, lol...guess he isn't getting enough on his own thread.

And whatcha wanna bet, once we find the source of that photo it will also disappear. I hope we can find it.

Does that woman steal EVERYTHING!!?

BamaGal · 10-17-2007, 05:27 PM

Kimkins has a lot of hijacked things on her blog---not just that cartoon

Most of the recipes come from somewhere else and she has had 2 articles(essay) from a diabetes site I visit---I emailed the author of the Frugality piece and she sent me a reply stating that dLife is looking into it and thanked me---KK did have the sites web address---but no link and no mention of the author---here's her reply to my email:

Diane,
Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention. The editors at dLife are helping me with the situation and it will hopefully be resolved soon.
Regards,
Deanna

Why isn't the copyright on it then?

One reason we know that they didn't pay would be that they scrubbed the author's/his name off the cartoon.

The same way they paid to use Lesya's photo? Or Kim's advice after the C&D order? By now, there's a pattern....

You know those earrings are so 1988.

Time for another Kimkins website scrub. . . I mean "update".

I've always enjoyed Randy Glassbergen's cartoons. I hope he nails her butt.

jenna... · 10-17-2007, 05:59 PM

Help me out here...

The print on the "Kimmer" Blouse looks familiar. Does anyone remember in the mid to late 80's and early 90's the designer who made silk scarves, jackets and blouses that had printing of braided ropes and had sometimes nautical wheels on them. The designer was fairly expensive.

This blouse could have come from that source.

My brother and his wife are thrilled but also sleep deprived right now.

SO they would probably give you one for a week or so. LOL
The triplets are two boys and a little girl so they said they are set and will not be having anymore. At least they say that now.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

Hermes did scarves, but are you thinking Gucci or Chanel?
