Right now, those who oppose honoring LGBT civil rights leaders are flooding the Governor’s office with calls to stop Harvey Milk Day from becoming reality. They are opposing SB 572 (authored by Senator Mark Leno), a bill that would designate May 22 as an official state day to commemorate Milk’s birthday and his lasting impact on California and the world.
Due to the high volume of calls from those who oppose educating Californians about the courageous work of Harvey Milk, the Governor’s office has dedicated a special line for the issue. Now we have to make sure our side is heard.
Please, pick up the phone and call the Governor’s office right now at (916) 445-2841. Follow the prompts to support SB 572 (Leno), the Harvey Milk Day bill. Calling takes less than a minute-you don’t even have to talk to anyone.
(916) 445-2841 – Takes Less Than a Minute – You Don’t Have to Talk to Anyone!
Tell the Governor why having a Harvey Milk Day is important to you and that it would offer an opportunity to teach Californians about the LGBT movement.
Thank you Mike Martinez, who brought this to our attention from GSA Network.

Jermaine Jackson says it might be cardiac arrest, but they don’t know for sure until the coroner performs the autopsy.
The fire dept arrived mid-day today at his residence where attempts to resuscitate were underway. He was taken by ambulance to the hospital and pronounced dead.
From the Press Release: 2:26 pm (West Coast) was the time of death on June 25, 2009. The autopsy will be performed on Friday.
Emotional fans continue to gather at the hospital.
Supposedly:
Germaine said*: My brother, the legendary king of pop Michael Jackson passed away at UCLA Medical Center. It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest however the cause of death unknown until autopsy performed. His personal physician tried to resucitate as did the paramedics who arrived on the scene. He arrived at the hosp at 1:14pm where a team of doctors attempted to resuscitate for more than one hour. They were unsuccessful. The family requests that the media respect our privacy during this time. Love you.
*This quote and information is not complete – it was transcribed directly from live TV by the author. It’s not an exact quote because Germaine talks faster than he can type.

I am not a mechanic. Never have been, never will be. And every time I think I have a grip on things mechanical, they turn on me and demonstrate, in no uncertain terms, the way things truly are. When the great god of machines gets through with me, I’m usually left gasping for air, clutching my credit card, and wondering what in the hell just happened!
