Patrick Swayze Dies After Long Battle with Cancer

LOS ANGELES — Actor Patrick Swayze has died after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Swayze’s publicist Annett Wolf says the 57-year-old “Dirty Dancing” actor died Monday with family at his side.
He went public about his illness last spring, but continued working as he underwent treatments.
Swayze was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer in early 2008. Doctors later determined the cancer had spread to his liver.
This January, he was admitted to a hospital for pneumonia, which was reportedly the result of his chemotherapy treatments.
He had to miss an appearance at the Television Critics Association in Los Angeles as a result. He had been scheduled to talk about his new A & E show, “The Beast.”
In March, a picture in a tabloid magazine showed a gaunt and seemingly hairless Swayze with the headline, “Patrick Swayze: THE END.”
The article stated that the actor weighed only 105 pounds.
Swayze remained remarkably upbeat during his brave battle and said he had so much to be thankful for.
He also kept busy and continued to work.
Swayze was perhaps best-known as a romantic leading man in the films Dirty Dancing (1987) and Ghost (1990) for which he received Golden Globe nominations.
Swayze is survived by his wife of nearly 34 years, Lisa Niemi.
He was 56-years-old.

Are cell phones safe? Researchers still uncertain
WASHINGTON, D.C.–The question over whether cell phones pose a health risk has been debated for years, and researchers say the final answer could still be years away.
Since the wireless industry’s early days, there have been fears that cell phones could be harmful to your health. Some 600 studies have been conducted on the health effects of cell phone use, but the results have been conflicting.
Several reputable organizations, including the World Health Organization and the National Cancer Institute, say there’s no conclusive evidence that using cell phones can harm your health. Other independent research, meanwhile, indicates a link between health problems and cell phone use.
The Interphone study, which began over a decade ago involving 13 countries and has been funded in part by the wireless industry, was supposed to settle the dispute. But the report’s publication has been delayed as researchers disagree over how to interpret the data. Some countries have ended up publishing some results on their own. Much of it indicates there is a link between brain tumors and cell phone use of 10 years or more.
