| Michael Jackson No Longer In Neverland
Fox News is reporting that Jackson's Neverland Ranch is set be sold at auction on March 19. Jackson can keep his theme park if he can pay off $24,525,906.61 by that date. If not, a public auction will take place in Santa Barbara, Calif., in front of the county courthouse. Whoever buys the pile will take possession of the personal property inside, all fixtures and appliances, furniture, and "all merry go round type devices," any rides and games. Fans may wonder at the look on Jackson's face when his spiritual home is sold off. They may even want to get the look for themseves. But being a Jackson impersonator, as so many Jackson fans seem to be, and copying his face, is like hitting a moving target. The advice is to bury your face in your hands, or a sock drawer… Posted: 26th, February 2008 | In: Anorak In New York, Celebrities.
Impress Potential Investors in 12 Steps
Jot down notes for each slide that will serve as the basis of your discussion. Your presentation should be more than a simple recitation of the points on each slide. 1. What is the opportunity? In other words: What is the problem you are fixing? Many Internet businesses—such as online car markets or travel agencies—aim to fix an inefficient and cumbersome market via a more open and speedy system. If it's a new problem or opportunity, investors will invariably wonder why no one has tried to fix this problem before? Or, if someone has tried, why didn't it work? You also need to convince potential backers that there are huge premiums for solving the problem. Resist the urge to dwell on marketing studies showing annual growth of 50% for the next 200 years—investors have come to despise them—and instead provide data on the size of today's market, with various estimates of potential market growth.
PREVIEW: Obama looks to keep edge as Democratic race hits Wisconsin
Ask the many peoples around the world for whom revolution means not a lame-o Sixties poster above your desk but the carnage and horror of the day before yesterday. Poor mean, vengeful Hillary, heading for a one-way ticket on the Oblivion Express, has a point. Barack Obama is an elevator Muzak dinner-theater reduction of all the glibbest hand-me-down myths in liberal iconography which is probably why he's a shoo-in. The problems facing America unsustainable entitlements, broken borders, nuclearizing enemies require tough solutions, not gaseous Sesame Street platitudes. But, unlike the whose-turn-is-it? GOP, Mrs. Clinton's crowd generally picks the new kid on the block: Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama. I wonder if Hillary Rodham, Goldwater Girl of 1964, ever wishes she'd stuck with her original party.
Waterboarding legal when CIA used it
Department of Agriculture should provide a loud and clear wake-up call that federal inspection is not adequate to ensure a safe meat supply ("A gap in food safety," Feb. 19). This largest meat recall in U.S. history was brought about because of an animal rights organization's undercover video showing California slaughterhouse workers using kicks, electric shock, high-pressure water hoses and a forklift to force sick or injured animals onto the killing floor. USDA regulations prohibit sick animals from entering the food supply, because of the high risk of contamination by E. coli, salmonella or mad cow disease. About 37 million pounds of the recalled meat went to school lunch and other federal nutrition programs since October 2006, and "almost all of it is likely to have been consumed," according to a USDA official.

Naive to think music can change the world: Neil Young
I won't be doing anything else and I don't want to sing any ... pretty songs; we can only sing about war and politics and the human condition." Iraq war same as Vietnam War CSNY Déjà vu weaves footage from the tour, which included performances from Young's Living With War album, with archive and television news material. "The goal was to stimulate debate among people, and I hope that to some degree the film succeeds in doing that." Young is a staunch critic of the U.S. invasion of Iraq. According to him, the war in Iraq is the same as the U.S. war in Vietnam. "It's a wrong way to solve a problem.... We just don't have to go and spread democracy around the world." Young did have one good thing to say about U.S. President George W.

She soon is telling her life story in the form a book…and maybe a CD as rapper. “Life's Not A Fair Game" is supposedly the name of the book. I'm sure you all know, but Game's mother is a well respected OG in the Compton hood – I heard.

Nelly is supposedly restarting the T.R.O.O.P. clothing line. What's funny about that is TROOP been “back" but they didn't get any burn. They used to say TROOP was owned by the KKK and mean Total Rule Over Other People. He needs to bring back VoKal (that site ain't been updated in 3 full years)!
