MICHEL..................
Michael Jackson has died after suffering a cardiac arrest, sending shockwaves sweeping across the world and tributes pouring in for the tortured music icon revered as the "King of Pop."
Jackson, 50, collapsed at his rented mansion in the exclusive Los Angeles neighborhood of Holmby Hills and was rushed to hospital by paramedics before being pronounced dead at 2:26 pm (2126 GMT).
One of the most influential figures in pop history whose career included the highest-selling album of all-time, "Thriller," Jackson had been preparing for a concert comeback in London next month he had dubbed "the final curtain."
News of his death triggered an outpouring of grief as shocked celebrities, foreign governments and devoted fans from Beijing to Beverly Hills paid tribute to the troubled star.
Lieutenant Fred Corral, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County Coroner's office, said an autopsy would likely be carried out on Friday and would not speculate on the exact cause of death.
Jackson's brother Jermaine, the family's official spokesman, later revealed physicians had battled for more than an hour to revive the star after his arrival at the UCLA Medical Center before he was pronounced dead.
"Our family requests that the media please respect our privacy during this tough time," Jermaine Jackson said. "May Allah be with you, Michael, always."
As the sun began to sink over Los Angeles, a coroner's office helicopter bearing Jackson's body took off from the UCLA Medical Center, where hundreds of media and fans had gathered throughout the day.
Meanwhile police motorcycle riders surrounded Jackson's gated mansion as crowds of tourists and fans congregated.
Pop diva Madonna was among dozens of celebrities who struggled to cope. "I can't stop crying over the sad news," the singer said in a statement. "The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever!"
The star's first wife Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis Presley, said his death had left her speechless.
"I am so very sad and confused with every emotion possible. I am heartbroken for his children, who I know were everything to him, and for his family," Presley told MTV News in a statement.
British Foreign Secretary David Miliband also posted his thoughts on micro-blogging site Twitter. "Never has one soared so high and yet dived so low. RIP Michael," Miliband wrote.
Lana Brown, a 49-year-old tourist from Dallas, broke down in tears as she digested the news. "Right today, I can't believe we might have lost the best entertainer this world has ever seen," she told AFP.
In China, Jackson's death was the top news item on popular Internet portals Soho.com and Sina.com, which called him the "most remarkable singer ever."
The story dominated US television throughout Thursday, relegating tensions in Iran and the death of another celebrity, Farrah Fawcett, to brief mentions.
Crowds continued to throng near the UCLA Medical Center and Jackson's home late Thursday, while street vendors selling hastily designed commemorative t-shirts for 25 dollars sought to cash in.
Jackson's death came as the singer prepared to make a keenly anticipated concert comeback in London, his first series of shows in more than a decade.
"This is it, this is the final curtain call," Jackson had told adoring fans in London after announcing his comeback.
But those concerts were thrown into doubt after Jackson pushed back the opening dates last month, although organizers insisted the delay was not linked to his health.
However Jackson family attorney Brian Oxman said he had harbored concerns over the singer's condition, revealing that he had taking prescription medication as he prepared for his comeback.
Oxman compared Jackson's fate to the overdose death of Playboy centerfold Anna-Nicole Smith, voicing concern over "enablers" in his entourage.
"The people who have surrounded him have been enabling him... if you think that the case of Anna-Nicole Smith was an abuse, it was nothing to what we have seen in Michael Jackson's life," Oxman told CNN.
"When you warn people that this is what's going to happen and then it happens -- where there's smoke, there's fire."
While Jackson ruled the charts and dazzled audiences with electric dance moves like the backwards "moonwalk" in the 1980s, his once-stellar career was overshadowed by his colorful public behavior, his startling physical transformation and multiple allegations of child abuse.
Jackson lived as a virtual recluse following his 2005 acquittal on charges, including child molestation and plotting to kidnap his young accuser.
Despite his acquittal, the trial was a body blow from which the pop music superstar, who named his ranch for Peter Pan's "Neverland" of perpetual childhood and furnished it with Disney-inspired rides, struggled to recover.
Four years later, Jackson was still worshipped by fans for revolutionizing music, dance and music videos at the peak of his success.
The attention paid to him in recent years was less flattering, focusing on apparent cosmetic surgery -- which he denies -- his baby dangling antics and a decade of swirling child abuse allegations.
Born on August 29, 1958, Jackson made his show business debut with four of his older brothers in the Jackson Five pop group, and went on to lead the stage clan with a piping soprano and dazzling dance moves.
By 1969, the group had signed a contract with Motown Records, becoming one of the last great acts to emerge from the legendary label.
The Jacksons produced seven platinum singles for Motown, selling over a million, and three multi-platinum albums, selling more than two million. They moved to CBS's Epic Records in 1976.
Despite the early success, Jackson was to recall those years as unhappy and lonely ones. The family act eventually broke up, as Jackson went solo.
In 1979, Quincy Jones produced Jackson's first solo album for Epic, "Off the Wall," a huge disco-oriented success that sold 10 million copies.
They teamed up again in 1982 for what would be Jackson's breakthrough album as a composer and co-producer, "Thriller," which became the top-selling album of all time, with sales exceeding 41 million.
Jones reacted with shock after being informed of Jackson's death Thursday.
"I'm absolutely devastated at this news," he said. "I just don't have the words. Divinity brought our souls together and allowed us to do what we could do through the '80s," Jones said.
Tommy Mottola, the former head of Sony Music who released Jackson's records for 16 years, said the singer had a place in the pantheon of American music icons, alongside Elvis and Frank Sinatra.
"It's one of the greatest losses," Mottola told the Los Angeles Times.
"In pop history, there's a triumvirate of pop icons: Sinatra, Elvis and Michael, that define the whole culture.
"His music bridged races and ages and absolutely defined the video age. Nothing that came before him or that has come after him will ever be as big as he was'"

Sarkozy stirs French burka debate
Since this was the first time in almost one and a half centuries that a French president had been allowed to address parliament, President Nicolas Sarkozy's speech was already on course to ruffle a few feathers. The Greens and Communists refused to attend and the Socialists left early, claiming the venue for the address - the Chateau of Versailles, which was home to King Louis XIV - smacked of monarchy and a thirst for power.But it was the French leader's attack on the burka that really caused a stir. He expressed his strong distaste for the head-to-toe Islamic veil, calling it not a sign of religion but a sign of subservience.
MONSOON IN INDIA
India’s winters are hot and dry. The monsoon winds blow from the northeast and carry little moisture. The temperature is high because the Himalayas form a barrier that prevents cold air from passing onto the subcontinent. Additionally, most of India lies between the Tropic of Cancer and the equator, so the sun’s rays shine directly on the land. The temperature can reach as high as 110oF during the Indian winter.The summer monsoons roar onto the subcontinent from the southwest. The winds carry moisture from the Indian Ocean and bring heavy rains from June to September. The torrential rainstorms often cause violent landslides. Entire villages have been swept away during monsoon rains. Despite the potential for destruction, the summer monsoons are welcomed in India. Farmers depend on the rains to irrigate their land. Additionally, a great deal of India’s electricity is generated by water power provided by the monsoon rains.

"I was very impressed. His speech was a breath of fresh air compared to the bleak view most of the Arab world had of the previous administration. It's good he denounced colonialism.
Of the seven issues he raised, the most important for me as a Saudi woman, was that of women's rights. There can be no progress socially or economically without the advancement of women.I teach banking and finance at university and my life's mission is to promote the empowerment of women.I also liked what he said about business and entrepreneurship. We must really seize on his goodwill and initiative. But we must not wait for it all to come from his administration. Arab nations must reach out and propose our own programmes"

UAE takes measures to address concerns over women's health
A woman smokes a water pipe (shisha) in a cafe in Dubai in May 2008. Smoking also causes a high percentage of cancerous diseases among women. (Marwan Naamani/AFP/Getty Images The United Arab Emirates Health Authority has issued a statement calling for women between the ages of 40 and 69 to undergo yearly mammograms, which are included in their health insurance. The move is the latest in a series of initiatives to reduce the rate of breast cancer among women.Breast cancer is the most lethal disease among women in the UAE. The National Centre for Statistics reports that it accounts for 23 percent of the total cancer cases in the country.Health officials are hoping that the mammogram campaign will promote the early detection of cancer. At present, only 30 percent of breast cancer cases in the UAE are diagnosed early, before cancer cells have grown significantly. sweet memmories....................

Children's make-believe nuclear power plant prompts full alert
Two six-year-old boys caused panic and a nuclear alert when they put up home-made signs saying the area they were playing in was radioactive. More than ten police and fire vehicles raced to the scene after a neighbour called the authorities having seen the sign on the house. Experts used Geiger counters to check for radioactivity - there was no-one to explain the mix-up as the boys had wandered off. “The fire crews responded to the call and brought the police.

Germany's best beer gardens.
According to 19th-century historical accounts, beer gardens were born as Bavarian breweries were originally looking for a way to keep their stock of dark lagers cool during the hot months of summer. Cellars were dug in the banks of the Isar river, then later covered with gravel and chestnut trees for added protection from the sun. It wasn't long before breweries soon began serving customers in the shady coves directly above the cellar – a practice that led to today’s reigning concept of the traditional German beer garden.

Swine flu can turn more lethal in winter:Scientists
As the influenza A (H1N1) virus spreads across the globe, scientists in India are worried over the possibility of the second wave of the pandemic being more virulent. "There is much more to this virus than we understand, and nobody knows how lethal it could be in future. Presently, the hot summer is at our rescue. During the rainy and winter season the virus is likely to spread in a big way," senior epidemiologist Narendra Arora said. . "Every season 10 percent of the population is affected with common flu, and if the number in the coming season rises to 25-30 percent then we need to worry.According to the health ministry, the present strain of the virus (H1N1) is a mild one and is reacting to the anti-flu medicine Tamiflu. The ministry said there are chances that the second wave could be more potent. However, a second wave of the flu will be more potent and we are in the process of developing a vaccine for the flu.Shiv Lal, assistant scientist at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB), said: "Pigs are an ideal mixing vessel for the virus and there is a possibility of the virus changing as it circulates. We have to watch the virus closely. Scientists across the globe are working to develop a vaccine for the flu that is likely to be effective during the second wave." The World Health Organisation has reported 44,287 laboratory confirmed cases of influenza A (H1N1) infection from 89 countries as on June 17. There have been 180 deaths so far.

Back in 2004 she crushed Serena Williams in straight sets to become champion, but the Russian beauty is just back from 10 months out with a shoulder injury.
“Just to be here is already an accomplishment in itself. When I look back to where I was 10 or 11 months ago or even three.I'm definitely blessed after playing a few tournaments and getting a few matches on grass,” News of the World quoted Sharapova, as saying. “Every tournament is still a test. It's almost like the beginning of the season. I am still testing where my game is, where my shoulder is,” she added.
Seeded 24, she faces Viktoriya Kutuzova of the Ukraine in the first round.
“It is too soon to put winning in my mind. This is definitely a time in my career where I can't look into possible third, fourth round, semis,” Sharapova said.

Breakthrough in AIDS as virus's hiding places found
In a major breakthrough for AIDS cure, Canadian scientists have finally found where the HIV virus hides in the human body to become impervious to medical treatment.This breakthrough could pave the way for a total cure of the deadly disease, claim the scientists who carried out the study with researchers from the US. The current anti-viral treatment for HIV patients can only subdue, not eliminate, the virus as it hides somewhere to lie low and then attack the system again. Till now, scientists conjectured that the AIDS virus might be hiding in the kidneys or the brain. But now the Canadian researchers claim that they have discovered the safe havens where the virus hides in the human body. Led by Professor Rafick-Pierre Sekaly, researchers said they have found that the virus hides in "long-lived" memory cells in the human body. These memory cells, which have a long life just like the stem cells, lie sleepy in the body most of the time until they encounter a new virus or disease-causing agents. Like stem cells, these memory cells are also capable of replicating themselves. So when the AIDS enters them or attacks them, these memory cells multiply to defend the body. But the problem is that the once AIDS virus enters these memory cells, it also multiplies with them. Thus, ruring the current intense medication - which involves five to six drugs that can prolong life up to 13 years - for a patient, the AIDS virus retreats into these safe havens to stage an attack later. The researchers said they are finding ways to destroy the virus in its safe havens in the memory cells without harming the immune system. Their research is the "first clue" to eliminating the AIDS virus, said research leader Sekaly Sunday. There are over 33 million HIV patients worldwide, with 2.7 million more getting infected each year.
