Bono kicked off World AIDS Day in Australia on Wednesday, December 1 by calling on people to demand their country's government officials provide more financial help to fight the disease during the global recession.

The humanitarian rocker is committed to raising awareness of the disease and set up the ONE campaign to help fight the AIDS epidemic and combat global poverty. He headed Down Under to support World AIDS Day and during a ceremony in Sydney, urged government chiefs across the world to invest more cash into the cause.

Bono tells Reuters, "Times are hard in the Western world. (Health agencies are) fighting hard for funding. In recessionary times, people have to tell their politicians this is important to them. Some people think that the pandemic is on its way out and it's job doneÃƒÂ¢Ã¯Â¿Â½Ã‚Â¦ It is really not so."

The rocker then joined Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard to light up Sydney Opera House and Harbor Bridge in red to support the awareness day. Bono has been in Australia since last week and praised leaders over the weekend for pledging to spend 0.5 per cent of the country's gross national income on foreign aid.

Autumn Reeser Announces She Is Pregnant

The former "The O.C." star, 30, revealed the news during an appearance on late night talk show "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Tuesday, November 30, after confessing she was feeling self-conscious about her figure in her little black dress.

Initially joking about having a beer gut, she told presenter Jimmy Kimmel, "I wanted to wear it (the dress) but I was a little nervous about wearing it tonight because it's a little tight and I'm carrying a little extra weight... I drank a lot of beer before I came here... No, I'm pregnant actually!" But Reeser admits she has "no idea" how writers behind her new U.S. superhero series "No Ordinary Family" will deal with her expanding belly on the show.

She says, "I have no idea. I mean work knows, I've told them, because my character (Katie Andrews) is really kind of not so great with men, but it is a superhero show, so it could be like a magical thing that happens! I don't know."

Reeser and Warren wed in May 2009.

Michael Jackson's Father Joe Has Refiled A Wrongful Death Lawsuit in California

Michael Jackson's father Joe has refiled a wrongful death lawsuit in California after a federal judge insisted the case needed to be heard in a state court. Joe Jackson launched legal action against the star's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray in a federal court in August, accusing him of administering a fatal dose of anesthetic Propofol, which led to Michael's death in June 2009.

Jackson alleges he was being supported by the "Thriller" hitmaker at the time of his passing - a claim which gives him the necessary legal standing to pursue a wrongful death suit. U.S. District Judge John F. Walter ruled in November that some of the legal issues needed to be handled in a state court - and Jackson's lawyer refiled the documents at Los Angeles County Superior Court on Tuesday, November 30, according to TMZ.com.

The lawsuit has also been amended to include Applied Pharmacy Services in Las Vegas, a company which allegedly sold Propofol to Murray. Joe Jackson is said to be seeking damages between $10 million and $500 million in the suit for emotional distress, loss of support and "loss of comfort, aid, society and companionship".

Dr. Murray, who has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the star's death, is set to go on trial in January 2011.
