An internet site has created heavy buzz, along with a new fashion statement: T-shirts, trucker hats, stickers, and coffee mugs bearing the logo "Free Katie," in reference to her relationship with actor Tom Cruise, which many skeptics insist is a publicity stunt. The website proclaims itself to be dedicated to "the movement to liberate Katie, a young, gifted, actress held captive by forces we may never understand. "

The Associated Press reported the rescue of an 81-year-old woman trapped for six days after falling in her bathtub. According to officer Peter Jung, who found her Wednesday morning, she had no food in the room. "She couldn't move in the right way to do anything other than get handfuls of water out of the bathtub faucet," Jung said. "She was just glad we were there. "According to the report, it was a neighborhood newspaper carrier's concern over an unusual pile-up of papers outside the woman's home that triggered an investigation. A neighbor, Larry Nelson, knocked on the woman's locked doors and noticed the woman's car in her garage. "I got that funny feeling there was something wrong," he said. He contacted the woman's landlord, who called police. Nelson told Jung he hadn't seen the woman outside in a while, which was unusual. The officer forced his way inside the house. Nelson said the woman seemed alert. "I walked into the bathroom and she said, 'Hi Larry!'" he said. "I asked if she had heard me rap on the doors, and she said, 'Yes, but what could I do?'"I couldn't believe she was still alive. "The woman was taken to the hospital. Pleasant Prairie Police Chief Brian Wagner did not know her condition Thursday. "When we found her, she was alert and oriented, and she knew how long she had been there," Wagner said. Barker said many elderly in the neighborhood live alone. "Somebody has to watch out for them," she said.
