Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Journal Entry: Fri Sep 21, 2007, 2:33 PM
  • Mood: Love










Introduction

Over 25 million people have been lost to AIDS so far, and 4.3 million people were infected with HIV in 2006. The spread of HIV is quickening, with more people infected in 2006 than in any previous year.

Why do I care? I care because it affects people I care about, I care.. because I'm human.

Information, education and communication are among the most important elements in the response to AIDS. To be effective information must be understood and believed and it's no surprise to anyone reading this that there is a negative stigma associated with this disease.

How Can I help?

I'm glad you asked, there are several ways:

:pointr: You can support *EveningDownpour in her Philadelphia Aids Walk

:pointr: You can sport the stamps and help spread the word in your journals by directing people back to this article



:pointr: Read the information in the links below and educate yourselves, educate your friends, your family, whoever. Get the word out about the truth and help us break the stigma.

:pointr: Steal the CSS and post information about this cause in your journal

:pointr: Sport the avatar

Happy Birthday dA

W0W! It is dA's 7th birthday and I missed the last 6 birthdays. Rofl. Well happy birthday DeviantART and I hope this year will bring less and less anime to frontpage! ;) I can't stand anime because it bothers the fuck out of me. It's a complete bullshit. No offense, but I don't like it at all. I wish I had some kind of gallery filter, so I can blacklist anime section.

4000 Pageviews

I promise not to write a lot for this section and other sections as well. Anyways, I can't thank enough for all the pageviews. When I first joined dA, I always wanted to get 1K pageviews because it looks very cool. Thanks to everyone + my devwatchers for your comments, favs, and pageviews. I would love to do a contest for whomever can catch my 10K, but I don't have a paypal or a credit card. So that sucks!

Give a hug to *xxchange, because she has an amazing gallery :D

    Free Subscription for 3months


    First thing is first. I won a free subscription for 3months from ^manicho a.ka. Khaula. I remember he said once that there will be a gift for anyone who will catch his 200K views. I also replied to his journal and promised to win it and I did it ;). I couldn't believe how fast his page views were increasing by the minute and I kept on pressing F5 for hours (yeah right). When he finally reached 199,990 views, I opened up at least 15 Firefox tabs and refreshed them all at once and one of the tabs captured the 200,001 view. If you are wondering how did I win this competition then check this picture out: Khaula’s 200K Page views Captured. And no it wasn’t photoshopped. Even If I did photoshop then you can easily tell, because I’m a n00b.

    Check out his gallery. I think he got some serious talents and very pragmatic in his field. Don't forget to give him a hug or just a b1tch-slap. :P I'll stop bragging and dedicate a special feature field only for Khaula's work. I just love his work (no homo).

    Manicho a.k.a Khaula's work


    3000 Page views + Counting

    I don't really care about page views, but then I do. It's something nice to see in every deviant's page. I was hoping to create this fancy journal entry when I'll reach 4K. I am not too far from reaching it, but I think it will take a hell of a time to get there. I don't do any art works or such related. The only reason I signed up in deviantART was to release my macbook + windows screenshots. I stopped modding because it's boring. I been using Susumu's CATS for a while now. I still have this NFR wallpaper (hint: blue flower with aqua background), but I'm too scared to post a screenshot with it. I might get banned. Oh well. Thanks everyone for the page views, favs, and sweet comments.

    That's it for me now. I'll update this after like 2 weeks or so. Cya and thanks again.
