  • What People Say About Chiropractic
    What people say about Chiropractic "I am very fortunate to have, so-to-speak, my in-house chiropractor, Dr. Franco Colombu, as my own personal chiropractor. So, I visit Franco regularly, and he comes over to my house. He adjusts my wife, my kids, me, everybody gets an adjustment. And we feel always great when Franco leaves. Even when I have athletic injuries he's always there for me, and helps me. So it's really terrific, and I know that first hand. That's why I always will be traveling around, all over the world, talking highly about the profession of chiropractic. You chiropractic doctors are really miracle workers, and that's why it's really great to have you here, part of the Arnold Classic. Because, like I said, the Arnold Classic and Fitness Weekend are about health and about fitness and preventive care." Arnold Schwarzenegger "If it were not for Chiropractic, I would not have won the gold medal." Dan O'Brien Decathlon Gold Medallist Appearing in films like The Patriot and Braveheart has taken its toll on Mel Gibson. "You get hurt all the time. All you gotta do is just like eight takes of running down a hill and you twist an ankle," the action pic veteran tells TV Guide Online. "I got a chiropractor to come along to the [Patriot] shoot, because they can actually stick you back together within 15 minutes. He used to come every other week, from Los Angeles to South Carolina spend a week and work on the entire crew.

    http://www.epgn.com/arts-and-culture/features/13236-live-from-new-hope-television-icons-take-the- stage-in-bucks-county-productions March 29, 2018 By Larry Nichols Stars from classic and beloved television shows and film will star in a pair of theatrical shows at the Bucks County Playhouse. The first up is Emmy-winning actor and television icon Ed Asner, starring in “A Man and His Prostate,” a one-man show written by Philadelphia native and nine-time Emmy winner Ed Weinberger. Based on a real experience, the stage comedy is an unflinching and heartwarming examination of Weinberger’s encounter with pain, relief and the retrieval of his manhood when his vacation in Italy takes an unexpected turn after he is rushed to a hospital for prostate-cancer surgery. Faced with an operation he doesn’t want, in a medical system he doesn’t understand, he decides he won’t take any of life’s injustices sitting down. “It’s wonderfully funny,” Asner told PGN about the show, running March 30-April 1. “It’s written beautifully enough and we keep them entertained the whole time. Women are the hardest laughers of all.” Asner said that while the show overflows with humor, it also touches on some less-than-pleasant facts about prostate cancer. “The salient point is, a man dies of prostate cancer in this country every 16 minutes.” Asner has portrayed a wide range of characters, both comedic and dramatic, throughout his long and storied career, ranging from kind-hearted souls to irrepressible scoundrels. Asner said he’s never shied away from taking roles that are the opposite of his personality.

    RELEASE EMBARGOED UNTIL SEPTEMBER 7, 2012 PRESS CONTACT: James Ford 972-865-2239, Ext. 6 [email protected] ACTRESS AND HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVIST MEREDITH BAXTER TO KEYNOTE SOLD-OUT 31ST ANNUAL BLACK TIE DINNER DALLAS — (September 7, 2012) — Meredith Baxter, acclaimed actress, producer and advocate for women’s and human rights and breast cancer research, will keynote the 31st annual Black Tie Dinner, co- chairs of the event announced today. The sold-out event is the largest one-night GLBT black-tie fundraiser in the nation. This year’s dinner will be held on Saturday, Nov. 3 at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel. Baxter recently came out as a lesbian on national television during an interview with Matt Lauer on The Today Show and in an interview in People Magazine. She also signed a deal with Broadway Books to write a candid and revealing memoir of her eventful personal and professional life. “Meredith Baxter is a champion of women’s rights and devotes much of her time speaking out on issues about which she is passionate,” said Black Tie Dinner Co-Chair Chris Kouvelis. “Her life experiences reflect our theme for this year’s dinner: ‘Affair of the Heart.’ Every cause that Meredith involves herself with is an affair of her heart in every way.” Noted for her accessible portrayals of intelligent, independent women who struggle with the challenges before them, Baxter achieved early success with a string of television hits, including the CBS situation comedy Bridget Loves Bernie; the critically acclaimed ABC drama Family, for which she received an Emmy nomination; and, most notably, the long-running and perennially popular NBC sitcom Family Ties, in which she starred in the role of Elyse Keaton.

  • Meredith Baxter Turns Painful History Into a Message of Hope for Women
    MEREDITH BAXTER TURNS PAINFUL HISTORY INTO A MESSAGE OF HOPE FOR WOMEN In the Hallmark Channel Original Movie “Bound By a Secret” (Saturday, March 7 at 9/8c ), Meredith Baxter plays Ida, whose best friend, a famous soap actress played by Lesley Ann Warren, returns to their hometown when she discovers that she will soon succumb to cancer. Although Baxter plays the role of loving and supportive friend, she can easily identify with both characters. “I am a breast cancer survivor, and I’ve been speaking around the country about my experiences for about six years now,” she says. “It’s very gratifying to open up to other survivors.” But it wasn’t always so easy for the “Family Ties” actress to speak freely about the affliction. It was a slow process that was helped by, of all things, dry skin. In 1997, she launched Meredith Baxter Simple Works, a line of skin care products created initially to correct her own dry skin problem. But response from family and friends was so great that she decided to take it to the public. She also founded The Meredith Baxter Fund for Breast Cancer Research, which supports vital breast cancer programs throughout the United States. Baxter announced that a portion of all profits from Simple Works would go to the foundation. “I would be at trade shows to present Simple Works and women – some of them still wearing head scarves because of radiation treatment - would see the pink ribbon and want to talk to me,” she explains. “My first reaction was to close down and not want to talk, but I began to open up, slowly.

  • Michael J. Fox's Crusade for a Parkinson's Cure
    Michael J. Fox's Crusade for a Parkinson's Cure How the actor's Parkinson's diagnosis changed his life -- for the better, he says. Michael J. Fox has always been a poster boy. With his youthful good looks and intelligent charm, he rose to fame playing a sassy Republican teenage son of ex-hippie parents in the TV sitcom Family Ties. In the blockbuster Back to the Future film trilogy, he was a time traveler with perfect comedic timing. And in a later sitcom, Spin City, he made us wish all politicians were as personable as his Deputy Mayor Mike Flaherty. In 1998, Fox became a poster boy for another reason: He went public with the news he had Parkinson's disease, diagnosed 7 years earlier when he was 30. Parkinson's is marked by: Trembling in the hands, arms, legs, jaw, and face Stiffness of the body Slow movements Impaired balance and coordination. The disease had become unmanageable for the actor, who until then was able to minimize his symptoms thanks to medication, surgery, and good timing. Eventually, the effort became too much. "I needed every bit of those 7 years to say, 'I want to be out there,'" Fox says. "But at a certain point I woke up and said, 'What's the risk? That people will judge you? People are already judging you about whether you wear red shoes or blue shoes. So I talk funny or shake -- why should I restrict myself?'" "You have to take your time and do what you need to do," he says.
