Subject: Tell McCain: Stop insulting women

Dear Friend,

On Wednesday, Senate Republicans filibustered the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, a law that would have overturned an appalling Supreme Court decision that practically abolished remedies for gender-based compensation discrimination in the workplace. In opposing this legislation, Senator John McCain said that if women want better-paying jobs, they just need more "education and training." Then, he didn't even show up for the vote.

Let's tell Senator McCain that should stop blocking an up or down vote on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act if he wants to ensure equal rights for women under the law.

Please have a look and take action.

Thanks!

Bright Blessings!

I hope this finds you well and in great spirits. Are you enjoying Spring? You know Earth Day is on 4-22-08, right?

Some of you know that I am on the Kluckin Films Krew. Well, I just spent 1/2 that day out in the sun and I'm allergic to the sun! I did my best to stay out of the direct sun and in the shade as much as I could, but being one of the camera operators, that wasn’t always possible.

We were contracted to video tape the First ever Earth Day Event in Myrtle Beach, SC! We arrived around 10:AM and I was only able to stay until 2:PM. I came home and passed out, literally.

That is one of the things that prolonged sun exposure does to me, it makes me pass out. There are many other things like 3^RD degree sunburns in a matter of a few hours (if I’m not careful), disorientation, my equilibrium goes whacky, loss of memory, hives and other skin ailments, just to name a few.

The event was scheduled to start at 11:30AM and end at 6:PM.

The time I was out there I can say that other than being in the sun I liked what I saw. This is the start of something WONDERFUL!

The event was organized by The Wellness Council for Coastal South Carolina and sponsored by some pretty cool people.

Though there weren't as many attendees as we all would have hoped, it was still GREAT for the first ever Earth Day Event in our area.
