This is the last known video of Michael Jackson at a rehearsal at the Los Angeles Staples Center on June 23, 2009 (two days before his death).
Thanks Trevor (who is one of the best dancers I know and is one of the founding members of Australian dance group The Collektive)!

Cincinnati is home to at least one (probably several, judging by the video) real-life superheroes that actually fight crime and protect citizens. This particular news story follows Shadow Hare, a masked crusader who parades around town in a black suit and cape with silver paint across his face.
I think the question everyone wants answers to is whether or not he can fly. Thanks Corey!

Time Magazine has put together a commemorative Michael Jackson special issue that will go on newsstands on Monday, June 29, 2009. The commemorative issue interviews many famous celebrities and friends of Michael Jackson and will cost $5.99. I think the picture they used is a good choice.
Check out Just Jared for a larger version of the cover above.

Multiple outlets are reporting that pop music icon Michael Jackson has passed away from a heart attack after he was brought to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in a deep coma.
Despite what seemed like a deteriorating quality of life in the public eye in his later years, there is no doubt in my mind that Michael Jackson still reigns as the King of Pop. A good portion of my life was surrounded by his music — I heard it everywhere I went — and as I grew older I learned to appreciate his ability to perform and entertain to a degree unlike any other pop music performer. If you want to gauge his popularity and influence in the music and entertainment business, you might want to have a quick look at this list of awards received by Michael Jackson throughout his life. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a longer list of achievements by any other artist.
Here is the L.A. Times’ front page which shows the headlines of the death of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett. Sad day in the entertainment industry that’s for sure.
