			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Gary Coleman, 42, the diminutive, wisecracking child star of the sitcom &#8220;Diff&#8217;rent Strokes,&#8221; died Friday at a hospital in Provo, Utah. He suffered an intercranial brain hemorrhage after falling at his home in Santaquin, Utah.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.imageup123.com/uploads/3531.jpg" border="0" alt="Gary Coleman Dead at 42" width="300" height="226" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Janet Frank says life support was terminated and Coleman died at 12:05 p.m. Coleman was hospitalized Wednesday after falling and suffering a head injury at his home south of Salt Lake City, according to family members.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.imageup123.com/uploads/259gary-coleman-arnold.jpg" border="0" alt="Gary Coleman" width="350" height="448" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Mr. Coleman was 10 when he stepped into the national spotlight in 1978, playing the witty, lovable Arnold Jackson on NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Diff&#8217;rent Strokes.&#8221; The role was created for him and made Mr. Coleman the best-known child star on television for the eight years the hit comedy was on the air. He played the younger of two orphaned African-American brothers adopted by a white Manhattan millionaire after the death of their mother, the rich man&#8217;s housekeeper. The show was a comedic showcase for Mr. Coleman, who looked younger than his actual age because his growth had been stunted by a congenital kidney condition. His signature line, &#8220;Whatchoo talkin&#8217; &#8217;bout, Willis?&#8221; became a national catchphrase.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">

<p style="text-align: left;">His adult life was plagued by domestic disputes, health issues and legal troubles. Despite his real-life travails, Coleman will remain an &#8217;80s TV icon, a quick-witted boy whose onscreen charm lives on in television syndication.</p>

<p align="left">The amazing thing is in the actual watch face. It has what is called a Japanese Citizens movement, which means that the insides are made of metal and not plastic like many &#8220;craft watches&#8221; that break after a few months. I looked high and low and found a brand that I really like and I KNOW will work. The batteries are also guaranteed for 18 months before you need to replace.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ANCHORAGE, Alaska – <span id="lw_1265822932_0" class="yshortcuts">Phil Harris</span>, the <span style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; cursor: hand; border-bottom: medium none" id="lw_1265822932_1" class="yshortcuts">fishing boat captain</span> whose adventures off the Alaska coast were captured on the television show &#8220;Deadliest Catch&#8221;", has died, the <span style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; cursor: hand; border-bottom: medium none" id="lw_1265822932_3" class="yshortcuts">Discovery Channel</span> said Tuesday night. He was 53.</p>
<p>Harris suffered what his family described as a massive stroke on Jan. 29 while the <span style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; cursor: hand; border-bottom: medium none" id="lw_1265822932_4" class="yshortcuts">fishing vessel</span> he captained,  Cornelia Marie, was in port at St. Paul Island, Alaska. The fisherman was flown to Anchorage for surgery.</p>
<p>The reality show, which has filmed five seasons, has been one of the Discovery Channel&#8217;s most popular and depicts the <span id="lw_1265822932_6" class="yshortcuts">crab fishing industry</span> in the dangerous waters off <span style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; cursor: hand; border-bottom: medium none" id="lw_1265822932_7" class="yshortcuts">Alaska</span>.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is with <span style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; cursor: hand; border-bottom: medium none" id="lw_1265822932_8" class="yshortcuts">great sadness that</span> we say goodbye to our dad - Captain Phil Harris. Dad has always been a fighter and continued to be until the end,&#8221; sons Josh and Jake Harris said in a statement released by the network. &#8220;For us and the crew, he was someone who never backed down.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a statement, Discovery Channel senior vice president Elizabeth Hillman says, &#8220;Phil was a devoted father and loyal friend to all who knew him.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We will miss his straightforward honesty, wicked sense of humor and enormous heart,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>In an e-mail to The Associated Press, she said no additional information was immediately available Tuesday night.</p>
<p>Harris had seemed to be improving, and in a posting last Saturday on the ship&#8217;s Web site, he was described as &#8220;talking to friends and family today; showing his greatest progress&#8221; since the stroke.</p>
<p>His sons wrote in a Feb. 3 posting that &#8220;No one ever said <span id="lw_1265822932_9" class="yshortcuts">Captain Phil Harris</span> wasn&#8217;t tough. Today, dad showed some good signs of improvement, squeezing our hands and even summoning his trademark Captain&#8217;s bluntness &#8230; We are encouraged but still very cautious.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img border="0" width="213" src="http://www.imageup123.com/uploads/819phil.jpg" alt="Captain Phil Harris" height="320" /></p>
<p>According to the ship&#8217;s Web site, Harris started working on <span id="lw_1265822932_10" class="yshortcuts">fishing boats</span> at age 7 and started work 10 years later on a crab boat. When Harris turned 21, he ran a <span id="lw_1265822932_11" class="yshortcuts">fishing vessel</span> out of Seattle, making him one of the youngest to captain a vessel in the <span id="lw_1265822932_12" class="yshortcuts">Bering Sea</span>.</p>
<p>When Harris suffered the stroke, the family said a friend, Derek Ray, had flown to St. Paul to take over the role of relief skipper for the rest of the <span id="lw_1265822932_13" class="yshortcuts">opilio crab season</span>.</p>
<p>Harris&#8217; fishing vessel was based in Seattle.</p>
