In a recent 10-year period on the Angelina National Forest, there was an average of 19 wildfires per year. These fires burned an average of 318 acres of federally-managed land each year and were 93 percent people-caused. All visitors to the forest are asked to use care with fire. Keep campfires small, never leave one unattended and completely extinguish all fires, matches and cigarettes.

Gazing into Angelina Jolies eyes is like beginning a familiar journey. You dont know how it all started, but the desire to further explore is intense. When did you first notice her? Was it in 1998, when she won a Golden Globe for Gia? Or maybe a year later, after she picked up an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Girl, Interrupted? Whenever it was, you probably never imagined this impossible beauty, once better known for her famous father, Jon Voight, and ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton, would become the self-determined woman she is today.

The rumor mill is abuzz with stories that Angelina and Brad are having twins. The most reliable source is X17-they’ve been known to break a super secret story or two. Star Magazine(not so reliable but still not The Enquirer)backs up the claim of twin Jolie-Pitts. The tabloid reports that rumors began after Angelina drank no alcohol at the Critic’s Choice award while the rest of the table drank beer and champagne. We’ve ... heard the same about her evening at the SAG awards. If Brad and Angie are expecting twins, that will bring their grand total up to 6 kids.

For five years now Angelina has served as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. And they didnt call her; she called them. It was while filming Tomb Raider on location in Cambodiawhere she met her son, Maddoxthat Angelina began her transformation from self-mutilating wild child to citizen-of-the-world activist. And unlike many celebrities who dabble in geopolitics just to pass the time or score a few headlines, Angelina gets her hands dirty.

In her earliest years Angelina began absorbing the acting craft from her parents at home. Her father was the Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, and her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, had studied acting with Lee Strasberg. At age 11 Angelina began studying at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute. She undertook some film studies courses at New York University and later joined the renowned Met Theatre Group in Los Angeles. At age 16 she took up a career in modeling and appeared in some music videos. Her exotic good looks may derive from her mixed ancestry, which is Czech, French-Canadian, Iroquois and English.

The recent deaths of Claudia Cohen, a well-known entertainment reporter for ABC's "Regis and Kelly" and Marcheline Bertrand, mother of film actress Angelina Jolie, from ovarian cancer have put the spotlight on a disease long known as "the silent killer." Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of death in women. There will be 80,000 new people diagnosed this year – more than 50 percent will die from the disease. This is largely because current methods of early detection are insufficient. Only 25 percent of cases are diagnosed early. Due to work now underway at the Ovarian Cancer Institute in Atlanta, this may soon change.
