American Cancer Society Relay
- From: rachel

Description:
Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's nationwide signature event. I had the honor of being a Co-Captain for TEAM PITA in 2007. Throughout the event, my teammates and I took turns walking around the track and camping out. Our team fundraising goal was $1500, however we raised over $3000!!!! This took a lot of hard work and dedication from the team members! Our team was created on behalf of Pita Carrasco, my cousin, who has been a breast cancer survivor for 3 years.
The event took place on August 11th-12th atKimball Parkin National City. Many people walked in honor or in memory of someone they know who has been touched by cancer. ALuminaria Ceremony was held at sun down, where candles were lit, placed around the track, and we remembered those who have been touched by cancer.The chair member from the National City Relay For Life was proud to report that the event had a total of 28 teams come together, bringing approximately 300 participants who raised $70,000 through Relay For Life. This wonderous group of 88 survivors provided inspiration to all.
Overall, the experience was truly special. I met a lot of great people, had a lot of fun, and made special memories!
Remember..There's no finish line until we find a cure!

A LIttle Reminder for the New

Description:A Little Reminder for the New Year...
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the 'Peanuts' comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.
How did you do? ?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
Easier? ?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones who care .
If you want to, pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.
"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today,
It's already tomorrow in Australia..........."

Description:TWO AWARD-WINNING FILMS FROM GHOST RIDER PICTURES HEADLINE MOONDANCE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL: Forgotten on the Bayou: Rockey?s Mission to the White House Execution Former Death Row Inmate Stars in Controversial New Film LOS ANGELES, CA ? September 3, 2007 // At this year?s highly anticipated Moondance International Film Festival (Sept. 7-9, 2007; www.moondancefilmfestival.com) in Los Angeles, two award-winning and controversial films from Ghost Rider Pictures will headline: Forgotten on the Bayou: Rockey?s Mission to the White House Documentary ? www.forgottenonthebayou.com Saturday, September 8, 2007 / 7:00PM Universal Studios CityWalk / Theater 16 Rockey Vaccarella first made news when he survived Hurricane Katrina by clinging to a rope on the roof of his submerged house for more than four hours. As amazing as that feat was, his mission to raise awareness about the devastation of Katrina is what captured the attention of America and much of the world. Last August, the world watched and applauded when Rockey towed his FEMA trailer from Louisiana to the White House with an invitation to have dinner with President Bush. Forgotten on the Bayou: Rockey?s Mission to the White House is a feature-length documentary chronicling Rockey?s journey from his devastated hometown of Mereaux, Louisiana to the Oval Office for a most unlikely meeting with the President of the United States. Rockey Vaccarella will be available for interviews in Los Angeles on Sept. 7-8, 2007. Execution Drama ? www.executionfilm.com Saturday, September 8, 2007 / 10:15PM Universal Studios CityWalk / Theater 15 Moondance Film Festival 2007 / Page 2 In 1995, two filmmakers gained unprecedented access to death row and the final seven days of one man's life before his execution by electric chair. The filmmakers fought over the final shot. Eventually two surveillance cameras were hidden in the death chamber and recorded the condemned man's execution. The footage was confiscated by the warden and hidden from the public for 10 years...until now. This controversial film takes you closer to the execution process than any film before and stars: William Neal Moore (?The Condemned Man?) ? he was on Georgia?s Death Row for 16 years and came within 7 hours of his own execution on May 24, 1984 before he received a stay due to the efforts of the victim?s family. He is the only man in America to have a death sentence commuted to lifetime parole for a capital crime that he confessed to and was convicted for. He is an unconditional free man today. William Neal Moore will be available for interviews immediately prior to the screening. Donald Cabana (?The Warden?) ? he is the former Warden of the Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchment and author of Death at Midnight: The Confession of an Executioner who has personally overseen the execution of four men. Mr. Cabana is still a Warden today at a prison in Gulfport, Mississippi.

Who is Rich Garrison ?
- From: Richard
-
Description:My Best Friend would say "I Know Rich Garrison and you Don't. My life is like a John Hughes film. My mother would say you need to live life by this motto “It’s my movie the rest of you are supporting actors". My Best friend went to the Czech Republic named James and came back Nick? My Grandfather who had four daughters would say "Even the Dog was a Bitch". I have a theory that you can lose 5 pounds on a Bud Light diet. "Who are you and what have you done with Rob Howe", Leavenworth Street is the axis of Evil. Who can forget the Thanksgiving with Baltimore and the Cactus Incident. Sometimes I feel like a Yank trapped in a land down under. Dammit I am not a Racist !. I am so sick of Beantown and that F*cking curse. Grew up in Arizona, "Yeah but it's a dry heat". Two of my Best Friends are Sammy and the one they call " The Coach". Ok I am not really a Vampyre. If you have ever been to Italy you would know that Prego is not just a cheap pasta sauce. XBOX, Molls vs. R-Garriso. I'm the manager so I get to make the rules. From Snob Hill to a Marina Brat. Some would say I am a 12 year old trapped in a 34 year old body. In the end you will find the beginning. G*d I hate asu." Are you going to raise that F*cking sign or what ?", "I would sacrifice a $1.50 for my cause. Beware..... When Larkin starts to grin Trouble is right around the corner !
