| Help Fight Childhood Cancer |

Hi,
I just joined Kaleb Myers's dedication page at LIVESTRONG Action. Kaleb Myers inspired someone close to me to commit to end cancer, and now I've joined with them.
This page is a part of the world's largest dedication book that LIVESTRONG Action will use to pressure world leaders to do more to fight cancer. Can you add your name to the dedication page? It'll only take a second, and you can help me reach my target of 25 dedications.
Please click here, it only takes a second:

Right now, Lance Armstrong is dedicating his ride in the Tour de France to the fight against cancer. And after the race, he'll send this dedication book - with your signature - to world leaders and pressure them to make cancer a priority in their own countries. It's our best chance to push for better treatment, more funding for cancer research and access to care for everyone around the world.
But if people like us don't stand up, these leaders won't pay attention.
Will you check out my dedication page? Kaleb Myers inspired me to take action - hopefully they'll inspire you to do the same:

I was looking at my friends list and have noticed a lot of people have added me that are not on my friends list. I don't know if I have just forgotten to add people back or people didn't tell me they were adding me or what. So if you have recently added me, or have me as a friend and I don't have you as a friend, please comment here and tell me how we know each other or why you added me etc. so I can get the right people added :o) Thanks! |

I think adult stem cell is fine and usually good. I don't agree with embryonic stem cell on any levl. It hasn't been proven it can do anything adult stem cells can't. In fact it has been shown to cause severe tumors. I also don't agree with using embryos for such things, as they are lives. I don't agree that the goverment should fund it. |

Follow that Bird. I loved that movie, and had it memorized. My mom was happy when the babysitter taped over it. Stephen watched it with me. Nicholas loved Roger Rabbit and Fox and the Hound. When he watched them it wans't like oh I will watch it once a day. Roger Rabbit would finish and he would say "Roger Rabitt again". HAHA I do own Follow That Bird for when Ashley gets older. Actually I own two copies. Jay bought me one and Nick bought me one. I wouldn't say it is my favorite movie though, however I do still love it :-) |

Comedian Bernie Mac died this morning from complications of pneumonia, his publicist announced today. Mac was admitted to a Chicago hospital on August 1st with pneumonia and rumors quickly began to circulate that he was in serious condition or was already dead.
His publicist, Danica Smith, denied these rumors throughout the week, saying only that Mac was “responding well to treatment” and was expected to be released from the hospital soon. Mac’s death was reportedly unrelated to his previous diagnosis of Sarcoidosis disease. He was 50 years old.
Mac was admitted to a Chicago hospital on Friday to receive treatment for pneumonia. Since his heath condition was first reported, massive rumors began swirling around the Net about how critically ill he might be—or if he was actually already dead.
Mac's publicist, Danica Smith, continued to tell the press throughout the week that Mac was still being treated for pneumonia in a Chicago hospital, was responding well to treatment and was expected to be released from the hospital soon.
However, other sources, such as ShowbizSpy.com, reported that Mac wass in "critical condition" right from the beginning and some gossip outlets began speculating that the comedian was near death.
Mac’s publicist announced on Saturday morning that the celebrated comedian had died. “[He] passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital,” Smith told People.com. “No other details are available at this time. We ask that his family’s privacy continues to be respected.”
The comedian and actor was diagnosed in 1993 with sarcoidosis disease, an autoimmune disorder that can cause inflammation of organs such as the lymph nodes and lungs, but the disease was currently in remission and was reportedly not the cause of his pneumonia.

| | sad | ] | ET breaks the news that comedian George Carlin has died from heart failure. The man who made famous the "seven words you can never say on television" passed away at 5:55 p.m. Sunday at Saint John's Hospital in Santa Monica, his longtime publicist said. He was 71.
Carlin, who has had several heart attacks and a history of cardiac issues, went into the hospital this afternoon after complaining of heart problems.
