Each year, thousands of American women ar diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Many volition lose their lives to this disease. Because ovarian cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage, it is vital for women to make regular visits to their doctors for screenings and to discuss endangerment factors and warning signs. Early detecting is the best way to help doctors diagnose cancer in front it has a opportunity to spread. It also makes intervention more effective and increases the chances for selection. I encourage all women to learn more about preventive measures and cover options that may help to salvage their lives.


America leads the human beings in medical research, and my Administration remains consecrate to the fight against ovarian cancer. I signed the "Gynecologic Cancer Education and Awareness Act of 2005," or "Johanna's Law," that helps to evoke awareness among women and health care providers some female procreative cancers. Additionally, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are conducting important research to help oneself make the innovative advances we need in order to carry off this disease. NIH's Cancer Genome Atlas is besides helping researchers gain a greater reason of the genetic sources of cancer. Together, we will go on building on our onward motion until in that location is a cure for cancer.


As we observe National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, we honor those who have fought this disease. We also spot the sympathize with caregivers, doctors, and researchers who are dedicated to preventing, detection, and treating ovarian cancer the Crab.


Now, Therefore, I, George W. Bush, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim September 2008 as National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. I shout out upon political science officials, businesses, communities, health care professionals, educators, volunteers, and the people of the United States to continue our Nation's strong commitment to preventing and treating ovarian cancer.


In Witness Whereof, I feature hereunto set my hand this twenty-sixth day of August, in the twelvemonth of our Lord 2 thousand octonary, and of the Independence of the United States of America the deuce hundred and thirty-third.

Peaches' husband 'terrified' of meeting Bob

Peaches Geldof's new husband has admitted that he knows little about her father Bob.

Max Drummey, a member of US indie band Chester French, aforesaid he had yet to meet his new father-in-law when he spoke publicly for the first time since marrying Peaches Geldof after a one-month whirlwind romance.

Speaking to The Mirror, Drummey said: "Bob is nowhere near as well known in the US as he is in the UK. I infer he's a real fable but I don't know much about him. I do know he's been knighted, though, which is amazing."

Geldof and Drummey conjoin recently in Las Vegas. While they have known each other for a year, they have solely been together as a couple for a month.

Though Drummey has yet to meet his father-in-law, he talked almost their recent telephone conversations.

He said: "He's always been friendly but as you'd wait he has what I call a healthy scepticism about me - I think any father would if their daughter got married the way we did.

"I'm panicked of meeting him face to case but that's going to happen soon - it's all been arranged."

Following an ikon makeover in the mid-'90s, the mathematical group emerged as the most popular dance orchestra in the U.K., establishing themselves as inheritor to the English guitar pop tradition of the Kinks, the Small Faces, the Who, the Jam, Madness, and the Smiths. In the process, the radical skint down the doors for a fresh times of guitar bands wHO became tagged as Brit-pop. With Damon Albarn's wry lyrics and the group's mastery of British pop tradition, Blur was the leader of Brit-pop, solely they cursorily became confined by the move; since they were its biggest band, they intimately died when the move itself died. Through some reinvention, Blur rescued their position as an artistic production pop band in the late '90s by incorporating indie stagger and lo-fi influences, which ultimately gave them their elusive American success in 1997. But the band's bequest remained in Britain, where they helped regenerate guitar pop by skillfully updating the country's evamped healthy earned them an audience in the U.S., where Dim standard strong reviews and became a lead strike, thanks for the most part to the popularity of the unmarried "Song 2."
