Mike Huckabee is a politician, an award winning "Health Crusader", and a successful loser of over 100 pounds.

After being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2002, his doctor gave him two oral meds and a stern warning. His doctor told him the condition of his health, the lifestyle he leads and the stress level of his job would likely put him six feet under within 10 years. At 48 years of age he was one of the youngest governors in the Nation. He knew he could win this fight -- and he did. After losing 110 pounds, the Governor of Arkansas reversed his diabetes and serendipitously assumed a role in the war against obesity.

It took a sobering message, dedication and commitment to bring Mike the healthy lifestyle he enjoys today. On the next dLifeTV, learn how Governor Mike Huckabee is winning the battle against diabetes. dLifeTV airs every Sunday on CNBC at 7PM Eastern, 6PM Central and, 4PM Pacific.

Billboard.com has announced the death of Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Syd Barrett from complications of diabetes. According to Billboard, Barrett left Pink Floyd over thirty years ago due to mental health issues, and lived the remainder of his life in seclusion with his mother in Cambridge, England.

Known for psychedelic rock, Pink Floyd, with Barrett and members Roger Waters, Rick Wright, and Nick Mason, gained an international cult-like following due to its innovative beyond the boundaries rock.

By some accounts, Barrett's LSD drug use created mental problems for him and he eventually retired from the band to live in his hometown of Cambridge. Pink Floyd band members dedicated two songs to Barrett, who was seen as influential in all that Pink Floyd symbolized and position it held in the rock world, with Shine on You Crazy Diamond and Wish You Were Here.

At the Live 8 benefit, Gilmour, Waters, Wright and Mason performed Wish You Were Here in Barrett's honor. Barrett was 60.
