Michael Jackson's Autopsy Results
Coroner: Cause of death 'deferred'
Cnn
The autopsy on the body of pop star Michael Jackson has been completed, but the coroner has ordered further tests and the cause of death has not been determined, a spokesman said.
Craig Harvey from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office also said the autopsy showed no sign of external trauma or indication of foul play.
The cause of death has been deferred, which means the medical examiner has ordered additional testing such as toxicology and other studies, Craig Harvey, operations chief for the coroner, told a throng of reporters.He said that once those tests are completed in four to six weeks, "We anticipate being able to close the case and issuing a final cause of death."

Silvio Berlusconi: I have never paid a woman for sex

From guardian.co.uk
Silvio Berlusconi has denied allegations he paid women for sex, as he continued to be dogged by allegations he has a fondness for young models and starlets.
"I have never paid a woman," Berlusconi told Chi magazine – which he owns – in an interview published today. "I never understood what the satisfaction is when you are missing the pleasure of conquest."
Previously, he had simply dismissed as "garbage" and a smear campaign reports that an acquaintance had paid at least three women to attend parties at his residences.
The allegations centre on an Italian model, Patrizia D'Addario, who claimed last week she had been paid more than €1,000 to attend a party at his residence in Rome along with other women. D'Addario alleged she eventually spent the night with the prime minister.
Berlusconi told the magazine that D'Addario was "very well paid" to make the allegations, which have prompted an investigation in the southern city of Bari into the local businessman accused of recruiting and paying the women.
In a statement to the Ansa news agency, D'Addario denied she had been paid to mount a scandal.
Berlusconi has been on the defensive since his wife, Veronica Lario, announced several weeks ago she was divorcing him, citing his selection of young starlets and showgirls for European parliament elections, and his presence at the birthday party of an 18-year-old model in Naples.
Berlusconi has insisted there was nothing scandalous in his relationship with Noemi Letizia, who he has said was the daughter of an old friend from political circles. He said he went to the party because he happened to be in Naples that day.
In the interview, Berlusconi said he was "sad, but serene" over the end of his relationship with Lario. "It was a very painful wound. I don't know if time will be able to cure it." D'Addario's allegations were followed by similar claims by two other women and reports that she had given over to Bari prosecutors audio and video tapes proving her story.
Giampaolo Tarantini, the man being investigated for allegedly abetting prostitution, has said he merely reimbursed the women for their travel and expenses. He said Berlusconi didn't know the expenses were paid.
Berlusconi admitted he knew Tarantini. "He was introduced to me as a serious and respected entrepreneur. Now that he is at the centre of an investigation I think that he should be presumed innocent, like any other citizen involved in a judicial case," he said.
Despite the scandals and criticism, Berlusconi has kept his popularity intact.

Kids Crooked Houses Overshadow Jon & Kate Divorce Announcement
nj.com
It seems the family drama has been overshadowed by Kids Crooked Houses, the custom (and quirky) playhouses for kids that were prominently featured during the much anticipated 'Jon & Kate Plus 8' announcement episode.
In fact, the houses sparked so much buzz during the show that the company's website was offline for a few hours last night.
The divrorce news came together with the new playhouses for the kids. They were done by Kids Crooked House. Perhaps these Crooked Houses -- the kids received four -- will become refuges for the children from events in the main home, which despite the game faces Jon and Kate put on for their children has been plenty crooked for a while. "I'm tired of smiling on the outside when I'm crying on the inside," Kate said. "I've been doing that for a long time." And you're never too old -- or too young -- to learn that the things that appear weakest on the outside may well turn out to be the most solid. That understanding and more, coming up next on "Jon, Kate, 8."

Kids Crooked House specializes in the building of playhouses for kids.
Be prepared to shell out approx. $2000 dollars for each house.

Although most of Milagros’ internal organs, including her heart and lungs, are in perfect condition, she was born with serious internal defects, including a deformed left kidney and a very small right one located very low in her body. In addition, her digestive, urinary tracts and genitals share a single tube. The other one is Tiffany Yorks of the United States, born in 1988, who underwent successful surgery in order to separate her legs. She is the longest surviving sirenomelia patient to date.

Woman Is Killed in Illinois Train Derailment
(AP) — Rail cars containing thousands of gallons of ethanol exploded when a Canadian National Railway freight train derailed on Friday night, killing one person and resulting in the evacuation of hundreds of nearby homes.
Five tank cars were still burning on Saturday morning, and officials said they would wait for the “very dangerous” inferno to burn out by itself.
Chief Derek Bergsten of the Rockford Fire Department said 74 of the train’s 114 cars were filled with ethanol.
At the height of the fire on Friday night, 14 cars were ablaze, said Patrick Waldron, a Canadian National spokesman.
Eighteen cars, all containing ethanol, left the tracks about 9 p.m. Friday, Mr. Waldron said. The cause of the derailment had not been determined.
Officials evacuated an area on the edge of Rockford, which is about 80 miles northwest of Chicago.
The Winnebago County coroner, Sue Fiduccia, said on Saturday that the person who was killed was a woman who had been waiting in a car for the train to pass through a crossing.
Chief Bergsten said that three people ran from the car when it was bombarded with flying railroad ties and that they were severely burned by flaming ethanol. They were hospitalized in serious to critical condition, he said.
The derailment was being investigated by Canadian National and the Federal Railroad Administration.
Members of the National Transportation Safety Board were en route to the scene early Saturday.

Jon and Kate have a big announcement to make Monday
AP PhotoAre you tired of hearing about Jon and Kate yet?First it was rumors of marital turmoil and infidelity, then the Pennsylvania Department of Labor launched an investigation into whether the couple's children are being taken advantage of with the television show and just Wednesday, videos surfaced that allegedly show Kate spanking Leah.But Jon & Kate followers haven't heard the last of this highly publicized couple and their brood of children.
TLC has been running promos teasing an announcement during Monday's show.Promos for Monday's one-hour special feature captions such as "A Family in Turmoil," "A Relationship at a Crossroads," "Where do they go from here?" and "Jon and Kate have an announcement."Kate's voice over says, "Recently, we've made some life changing decisions. Decisions that will affect every member of our family, ones that we hope will bring each of us some peace," according to examiner.com.
What will the announcement be? Are they getting a divorce? Will the eight children be shuttled between two households? Is the show coming to an end? Or is it just another shameless ploy to boost ratings and sucker a few more unsuspecting people into watching the show?

Plane Captain Dies In Mid-Flight
A Continental Airlines flight from Brussels will be making an emergency landing at Newark Liberty International Airport after the plane's captain died in mid-flight Thursday morning, CBS station WCBS-TV in New York reported.
Federal Aviation Administration officials said that Continental Flight 61 will land at Newark at noon. FAA spokesperson Arlene Salac said that there are two first officers on board the aircraft, both of whom are qualified to fly the Boeing 777. Salac said although an emergency has been declared, giving the flight priority handling upon arrival at Newark, there are no equipment issues so they expect a standard landing.
Newark was the flight's final destination. It departed Brussels at 9:45 a.m. It's not known what caused the pilot to become ill. Officials say a reserve crew on the flight will be managing the landing.From CBS

Released David Carradine death scene photo outrage the family
A Thai tabloid newspaper has reportedly published a photo of actor David Carradine's corpse where he was found hanging in a closet.
The picture, which reportedly shows Carradine with his hands tied in front of him, hanging from a closet support bar, was censored in part but still showed sensitive information from the death scene.
The pictures also revealed tattoos on the lower half of his naked body.
Reports indicate the colour of the body would indicate the actor had been dead for some time.
Carradine was a TV icon through the 70's and 80's, starring most famously in the action series, Kung Fu. He enjoyed a career resurgence of sorts when director Quentin Tarantino cast him in the Kill Bill movies.
He was 72 when he passed away.

Nu e vina lor ca au fost alesi...
Daca n-ati aflat deja... traim in tara PROSTILOR, pentru ca numai retardatii pot vota un europarlamentar care nu-si poate exercita mandatul din cauza interdictiei de a parasi tara. In schimb o sa-si ridice salariul de 10.000 euro fara probleme. E vina lui? E posibil sa fie vina celor care n-au iesit la vot?

"Am reinventat iarba VERDE... din nou!"
O banalitate pentru locuitorii oraşelor civilizate, o MARE realizare pentru Bucureşti.Cei care au călătorit în alte ţări, decât România, ştiu că în acele locuri, iarba nu este o specie rară, protejată şi pe cale de dispariţie. Nu eşti amendat pentru că ai îndrăznit să pui piciorul pe altceva decât beton sau asfalt, nu vezi enervantele indicatoare cu "NU călcaţi pe iarbă, amendă 300 RON!"
Mai mult decât atât, "culmea", eşti chiar poftit s-o calci în picioare.
Poate facem un efort şi reuşim să reinventăm, din pământ, din iarbă verde, şi copacii, bunul simţ sau şoferul nemitocan.

Vom avea "succesuri si minciuniuri" in PE
Daca mai avea cineva dubii in legatura cu sinceritatea si cultura plodului prezidential-candidat pentru PE, are sansa sa se covinga de faptul ca in familia prezidentiala minciuna si incultura sunt la mare pret.In ultimul ei interviu (MINUTUL 69) intrebata de contextul in care a reusit sa asasineze limba romana cu pluralul "succesuri", micuta candidata declara cu seninatate ca un "baiat", jurnalist, cu un handycam a filmat-o in timp ce impartea covrigi si ceai in Regie, acesta a pastrat inregistrarea si a scos-o "la momentul porivit".
Evident "aia mica"-cum ii place sa se alinte, a "uitat" "in cinci minute" ca e filmata de cel putin patru televiziuni nationale, unde mai pui ca mitomania se mosteneste si ea genetic.

Bucharest, the land of wrong choise.
Cine este cel mai bun promotor al turismului in Romania? Ati ghicit... nu este Udrea.
Mii de turisti britanici s-au trezit pe malul Dambovitei cautand terase chochete si yachturi-restaurant.
SURSA
In loc de aceste banalitati civilizate au gasit: sobolani-plutitori, gata "asomati", munti de gunoaie si "localnici bronzati" care isi spalau boarfele in apa "parfumata" cu dejectii de bucurestean,
taximetristi spalati acum doua veri, care in loc de cateva mii de forinti, taxau turistul cu cel putin 100 de euro, in loc de Jo napot kivanok, Bine c-ati venit ca va facem noi, soferi inarmati pana-n dinti etc.
E bine totusi ca de pe urma britanicilor ignoranti are si turismul romanesc o zvacnire.
Si ca sa fie si mai absurda situatia, turistul englez pleaca acasa cu o imagine deformata despre adevarata capitala danubiana, asta daca nimeni nu reuseste sa-i explice, pe limba lui ca: asa cum Dambovita nu e Dunarea, nici Romania nu e Ungaria.
