Gah

I tried saving it to an external hard drive and it just wont load.

Anyone have any tech advice? I ever drove to the store and bought a new cable just in case that was the problem.

I want you all to see it so bad :cries:
Oh no.
Wish one of my boys was here. They'd probably be able to walk you through it. Me, on the other hand ... not a clue. Sorry.

Look at it logically ladies If we had been rude, which we weren't, or come across as having an agenda, which we didn't she could have taken that and run with it. HOWEVER, she and Tippy and Heidi for that matter CAN NOT STAND to have people put rational intelligent questions to them because they have no answers.

Singing lass, you sent your leader snarky email after snarky email about how stupid we all are, and how there is NO WAY we could get a lawsuit going bla bla bla. I'd like to know what the kick in the pants felt like when you found out about the deposition? I mean you came across in your emails as someone who was CERTAINLY in the know. But it seems you underestimated Jeanessa, who said point blank "Give me my money back." And it seems you underestimated the rest of the detectives on here who spent countless hours bringing upon the fall of heidikins.

Don't you think it's about time to throw in the towel on this skam? Or will you hold on to the ship as it goes down?

But you already even have some names so why have they not been turned over to the authorities? If they have then I would think two months later something would have been done and it would be part of public record.

You stated at kimkins on Oct, 1st the following-
Good question! I'm interested in seeing her answer.

I wonder how any of those people who called me would feel if I were to post their names and phone numbers here ( and I have several)...and have people call them etc?
Meh! I asked her then to post them. She ignored! Shocked? Nah me neither. It would have been tit for tat. I realize the 2 wrongs don't make a right, but please rest assured if someone called me and threatened me over this mess, I'd be the first person blasting their azz on the internet. Duh!

There needs to be mention of the similarities of it between VLCDs and the associated health risks etc and done convincingly too especially considering all her plans are clearly outlined there. This would make it very easy for many people to do her diet not really knowing about the risks to their health or even worse try to sell that diet again.

Several months ago on Jimmy’s blog, she said we were overreacting (I’m paraphrasing). She compared the Kimkins controversy to how Atkins was always criticized in his day, too, It was very clear that she had no idea what Kimkins was really all about. I assume her message was deleted when Jimmy did his Kimkins housecleaning.

Yes, the post was deleted with all the other Kimkins posts...

Jimmy Moore's Livin' La Vida Low-Carb? Blog: Dana Carpender Has A Message For The Kimkins Opposition: 'Just. Calm. Down.'

I did check on the wayback machine, but they didn't log that page before it was scrubbed, so that was no help either.

It would be nice to hear something else from Dana about Kimkins though, because as it stands, she appears to be supporting Kimkins, not opposed to it.

Well, I don't believe Dana C. really "understood" the Kimkins plan as it was written. And, besides she is not Dr. Atkins (who would flip) or Dr. Barry Groves (who has flipped over it) or Dr. Taubes (who would flip if he knew what it was). So, she doesn't have much credibility with me concerning KKins..

Pssst! Carolyn, Gary Taubes is an investigative health reporter, not a doctor. But I'd bet he'd be flipping anyway!

3) I verified the home address by doing a reverse phone number search and then mapped the following-*note SL's home is the green arrow and the Corvallis Police Dept. is Letter "A"

Link to map-google maps

4) Please note that SL's home address is 1.1 miles from the Corvallis Police department Investigative div., letter "C".
Letter "C" is under "A" since they are the same address.

I find it difficult to believe that someone who lives 1.1 miles from a police department would call anyone other than them. However, in case 911 was called and the dispatcher routed the call elsewhere, per some odd protocol, this option should be ruled out and maybe already has been.
But SL it would be so much easier for us to believe you, if you simply stated which authorities were contacted, and gave the name of the person you spoke with during these allegations.
great job HoneyBee2

I've also visited your blog. I just want to say thank you for all you've done for the Low Carb community.

Boy, I bet you feel vindicated right about now. As do so many who didn't believe Kimmer's tall tales back "in the day".
Last I heard Dana Carpender was in support of Kimkins.

She's had plenty of time to correct it, I am sure many emailed her straight away, I know I did but she never replied.

You know....so many of you have said it was wrong to put my info up, for the calls to happen, and yet here you are, posting maps to my home, my address and all that everywhere, and just rubbing salt into all of this. Someone who was harassed and received threats should not further have to go through these kind of things.

Everything is being twisted around to suit the angle desired. Yes, I contacted them and gave them the name of the officer i reported to, and even sent emails to. That is between me and the local department. No I will not give any of you the name of that officer, because I am sure he would not appreciate all the incoming calls and emails. Just because the police have chosen not to discuss things with internet bloggers who are obsessing and piling them up with emails and calls, does not mean there is not truth in the situation. Obviously a line was crossed with them if all the contact information had to be deleted.

Basically you all just prooved what happened to me when my info was posted by turning around and harassing that officer with emails and calls when his contact info was posted as well. Let it go, focus on your own lives.....this is not supposed to be entertainment, you are interfering with the personal lives and safety of others, and that is wrong, no matter what kind of gloss or justification you put on it.

How would any of you feel if your info was posted everywhere, if people were hungry for every scrap or detail of your life regardless if it has anything to do with the kimkins situation? What does my liking Harry Potter or that I draw/ paint fairies and angels have to do with any of this? What does where I live, what my hair color...anything have to do with this? Try to switch this around and think what it would be like to wake up tomorrow morning to people invading your privacy and safety in that way, jumping over any scrap of information they remotely think is linked to you. It is obsessive and scary. Would you like it honeybee, if I turned around and posted your address, your maps, your life details and the like up? I doubt it. Most anyone would feel threatened, especially in the context that all of this being presented.

Leave individual people alone.

SL...I have to agree that all your personal info is unnecessary here but I do have one comment on something you said:

Quote:

I doubt the above info is true...they would not delete any info you gave them etc., on a case, ongoing or not. It is legal info and if they choose not to respond to it to "others", that is a different story but it would not be "deleted" as you say. probably a bad choice of words on your part here.

You set yourself up for it by remaining in cahoots with a known con artist and speaking out about these events on national tv. You cannot throw things out for sympathy to suit your side then retract when proof is asked for. You received a lot of sympathy here but you only bring this topic out when it suits you. Someone who speaks of this on national tv should be able to prove it and would have taken more steps than you appear to have if you were that upset with it. Again when you knowingly side with a lying liar who lies, defrauds people and extorts money your own credibility is going to be destroyed.

Obviously a line was crossed with them if all the contact information had to be deleted.

You seem to have no difficulty twisting things to suit your own angle when on tv or posting for sympathy yet you have a difficult time backing up your story. The police did not refuse to discuss it they said something quite different than what you said. Why would anyone believe you over police? Again you are promoting a lying liar who lies so why would anyone believe you over the Police??

Basically you all just prooved what happened to me when my info was posted by turning around and harassing that officer with emails and calls when his contact info was posted as well.

Leave individual people alone.

You had no difficutly talking about this on tv and you did receive a lot of sympathy from this forum. But when the heat got turned up you couldn't produce a shred of evidence to support your victimization. I am sure you know what is coming here. When you support a lying liar who lies and cons and commits fraud and you are well aware of it and in fact support it on tv you are going to lose credibility. Prove that we are all wrong and let us apologise. Can you do that?

Didnt think so.
