Lisa Marie Presley's Reflection Letter About Michael Jackson and His Controversial Death

Lisa Marie Presley, daughter of music legend Elvis Presley and former wife of the late King of Pop Micheal Jackson must be in unfathomable grief while composing this sort of reflection letter about her former husband who died recently. I was moved by her letter which she published in her My Space account. Here are some heartbreaking excerpts from the said letter...

I am sitting here watching on the news an ambulance leaves the driveway of his home, the big gates, the crowds outside the gates, the coverage, the crowds outside the hospital, the Cause of death and what may have led up to it and the memory of this conversation hit me, as did the unstoppable tears...

All of my indifference and detachment that I worked so hard to achieve over the years has just gone into the bowels of hell and right now I am gutted...

Our relationship was not "a sham" as is being reported in the press. It was an unusual relationship yes, where two unusual people who did not live or know a "Normal life" found a connection, perhaps with some suspect timing on his part. Nonetheless, I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much...

I became very ill and emotionally/ spiritually exhausted in my quest to save him from certain self-destructive behavior and from the awful vampires and leeches he would always manage to magnetize around him...

You can read Lisa Marie Presley's complete letter here.

Ms. Presley, our condolences for the passing of your former husband. And for you MJ, may you find, in the Hands of the Lord, the peace you did not find here on earth.

DOH Hotline for A(H1N1) Virus-Related Questions

With the Swine flu cases in the Philippines increasing by the minute, it is only apt that the Department of Health (DOH) reaches out to Filipinos through a hotline that provides asisstance even just by answering people's queries about the dreaded A(H1N1) virus. If you haven't tried it yet, dialing 155 using your mobile phone will connect you a pool of call center agents trained by the DOH to accommodate Swine flu-related questions. However, it is NOT free as most of you may have thought.


Try calling Hotline 155, a help line set up by the Department of Health (DOH) in partnership with Smart Communications, Inc.

Launched on Tuesday, the hot line will be manned by call center agents trained by the DOH to accommodate A(H1N1)- or swine flu-related queries.

The service, however, is available only to Smart, Talk and Text, and Red Mobile subscribers, which means queries can only be made using a cellular phone.

Smart public affairs head Ramon Isberto also clarified that the services are not free and normal rates apply “to screen out prank calls." Isberto said it would consider the suggestion of Health Secretary Francisco Duque III about giving discounted call and text rates for the DOH hot line.

In addition to Hotline 155, Smart subscribers can also reach the DOH via “Text 700-DOH." To use the service type: DOH (space) FEEDBACK (space) question and send to 700364.

Miami, Sexiest City in the United States for 2009

Miami is the sexiest city in the United States, this is what TripAdvisor has found out after asking some 3,400 US holidaymakersto rank American cities based on several sexy factors. This is well-received since Miami beaches are always full of women and men in skimpy swimsuits. Not only are these people generally attractive, their bodies are well-sculpted, too. Now that is sexiness in every sense of the word.

Have you been to Miami? I have'nt been to the place yet but I read a lot of interesting things to see and enjoy there.

Farewell to the King of Pop | Michael Jackson Dies at 50

King of Pop Micheal Jackson dies Thursday, June 25, 2009 in LA, California at the age of 50. Michael Jackson's stardom dates back in the 1980's where he'd been known all over the world for his groovy dance moves and high-pitched voice. His 1982 album "Thriller" is still the biggest-selling album of all time, having sold over 26 million copies. His hits, on the other hand, include Beat It, Billie Jean, Black and White, Heal the World and Thriller, among others. Michael Jackson songs are considered timeless because of their global appeal.

The world is in grief today as another famous pop culture icon, who became a subject of controversy because of his addiction to plastic surgery and child molestation cases, succumbs to death. The circumstances of Micheal Jackson's passing remains unclear though, until this point. Police just found Micheal Jackson not breathing inside his Los Angeles home.

Farewell, King of Pop! We pray for the repose of your soul.

Health Benefits of Red Yeast Rice

Normally, only Asians eat rice. Through the years, more and more people of different nationalities and cultural backgrounds are embracing the fact that rice could be a part of their diet. A good source of carbohydrates, did you know that rice has many health benefits? This is especially true with red yeast rice.

Red yeast rice is a rice variety with a yeast called Monascus purpureus. It is normally found and used in Asian countries (probably thousands of years ago)as both food and medicine. At present in the United States and Europe, red yeast rice serve as an alternative cholesterol-lowering treatment.

A new study from the physicians in Pennsylvania (published in the June 16 issue of the Annals of Internal Medicine) has found a significant cholesterol-lowering effect of a commercially available nonprescription red yeast rice product in a small group of people who cannot take statins because of severe side effects. Statins are a type of drug that helps lower cholesterol of people with cardiovascular diseases.

He Could Be the One Song Lyrics and Music Video | Hannah Montana New Hits

Coming straight from Hannah Montana 3 album, here's the lyrics and music video of "He Could be the One" as popularized by Hollywood teen sensation Myley Cyrus...



Smooth talkin'
So rockin'
He's got everything
That a girl's wantin'
He's a cutie
He plays it groovy
And I can't keep myself
From doing somethin' stupid
Think I'm really falling for his smile
There's butterflies when he says my name

He's got something special
He's got something special
And when he's looking at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got something special
He's got something special
I can hardly breathe
Something's telling me
Telling me

He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one

He's lightning
Sparks are flyin'
Everywhere I go
He's always on my mind and
I'm going crazy
About him lately
And I can't help myself
From how my heart is racin'
Think I'm really diggin' on his vibe
He really blows me away

He's got something special
He's got something special
And when he's looking at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got something special
He's got something special
I can hardly breathe
Something's telling me
Telling me

He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one

And he's got a way
Of making me feel
Like everything I do is
Perfectly fine
The stars are aligned
When I'm with him
And I'm so into him

He's got something special
He's got something special
And when he's looking at me
I wanna get all sentimental
He's got something special
He's got something special
I can hardly breathe
Something's telling me
Telling me

He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one
He could be the one

New NBA Logo is Kobe Bryant

Is there really a new NBA logo? One that reflects the new way of things in the premier basketball association in the United States? I only got the image below when I researched on that. It features none other than the Laker superstar Kobe Bryant. I'm not sure though if it's legit or just one of those photoshopped logos made by people who want to stir things up. You decide.
