Fans of ER and News Radio should send positive thoughts out to Maura Tierney. Tierney has revealed that she will be having surgery for removal of a breast tumor. The actress doesn’t know yet if the tumor is serious, but is remaining optimistic about her prognosis.

Tierney is currently filming the new TV show Parenthood, which is a takeoff of the 1989 movie. The series was set to premiere on September 23rd, but has been put on hold temporarily until Tierney can return to work full-time.

Music man Isaac Hayes died of a stroke on Sunday in his Memphis home. The deep-voiced soul singer died after he was found unconscious at his residence. Very sad- many prayers to his family.
However, it was also reported that no autopsy had been performed. No official determination has been released by the medical examiner’s office or filed with the Memphis health department, which issues death certificates.
