After weeks of speculation regarding the burial site, Michael Jackson has finally been laid to rest. The King of Pop was buried in an unmarked plot at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in the Hollywood Hills over the weekend. According to a source, the Jackson family and Forest Lawn management are the only people who know the exact location of the grave. The source said “The fear is that thousands of Jackson fans will descend on the cemetery and damage or deface the grave.” If the site is discovered, they already have plans to move the body. It is also being said that the singer has been laid to rest near his grandmother, Martha Bridges, who passed away in 1990.Michael Jackson Laid to Rest at The Insider

Michael Jackson Laid to Rest at The Insider

Michael Jackson and Self Esteem » Blog Archive » Genetic LotteryOn Monday, August 10, 2009—two women filed court papers saying they were biological mothers of Michael’s kids. Billie Jean Jackson (apparently her real name) claimed that she was Blanket’s mother while Claire Elisabeth Fields Cruise (CEFC ) filed a petition with the Los Angeles Superior Court saying that she is bio mom of all three MJ’s kids.
Earlier, CEFC had also claimed that she was legally married to Michael back in the 80s and at one point had claimed and she and Michael are biological parents of one of Tom Cruise’s son Connor Cruise!
L. Londell McMillan, Katherine Jackson’s lawyer called these allegations a “genetic lottery” after Mark Lester, a friend of Michael Jackson and ex-Oliver (child artist from the 50s) claimed to be the father of Paris Jackson – but not of either Prince Michaels.
Now, the latest ‘lottery’ is being played by a Mexican nurse who goes by the name of “Helena”. She claimed earlier today that she is Blanket’s mom and was paid by Michael to carry His sperm and another woman’s embryo to term. Basically, she, Michael and an unknown woman are biological parents of Blanket. That Michael paid her (Helena) $20,000.00 to give birth to Blanket while the other woman got approx $3,500.00 to donate her eggs to Michael. Michael is the sperm donor.
While it is funny initially, especially when you hear the likes of CEFC give a “press conference” like Q & A session with the media, the humour quickly runs out when you realize what Michael had to go through since his early teens and still isn’t done answering allegations of who parented what child of his.
And, while it really doesn’t matter who gave the sperm or who carried what child to term, what does matter is the three kids surfing the net and reading all this crap (as Michael would put it) about them and their origins.
Michael’s three kids will really have to work very hard all their lives to remember how much their dad, their ONLY dad, Michael Jackson loved them. And even if He turns out not to be their biological father, fact of the matter remains that no one loved those kids as much as Michael Jackson did.
I truly hope Prince, Paris and Blanket grow up to love, respect and appreciate their father for not only the great human being that He was but also for what He faced daily not only from the media, the paparazzi but also from evil children of satan like Evan Chandler, Jodie Chandler and his family, Martin Bashir, Tom Sneddon, Ian Halperin, Diane Diamond, Randy Taborelli, Uri Gheller and all the others like them who tried to make a buck by taking advantage of Michael’s good heart, innocence, His trust in human decency and His love for children of all ages and race.
It will take those kids to muster the strength of Michael Jackson’s name and fame to face the world and say SO WHAT? Who cares what people think? It will have to take Michael Jackson’s love from the grave to get these kids to say “Michael Jackson, and only He was our daddy and we love Him even today—just as He was”!
Michael Jackson—He will always be in my heart!

Paul tribute news and video:
He was a pioneer in the development of the solid-body electric guitar which "made the sound of rock and roll possible."
His many recording innovations include overdubbing, delay effects such as "sound on sound" and tape delay, phasing effects, and multitrack recording.
He was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin to George and Evelyn Polsfuss. The family name was first simplified by his mother to Polfuss before he took his stage name of Les Paul. He also used the nickname "Red Hot Red".
Paul first became interested in music at the age of eight, when he began playing the harmonica. After an attempt at learning to play the banjo, he began to play the guitar. By 13, Paul was performing semi-professionally as a country-music guitarist. At the age of 17, Paul played with Rube Tronson's Texas Cowboys, and soon after he dropped out of high school to join Wolverton's Radio Band in St. Louis, Missouri on KMOX.
In the 1930s, Paul worked in Chicago in radio, where he performed jazz music. Paul's first two records were released in 1936. One was credited to Rhubarb Red, Paul's hillbilly alter ego, and the other was as an accompanist for blues artist Georgia White.
In January 1948, Paul was injured in a near-fatal automobile accident in Oklahoma, which shattered his right arm and elbow. Doctors told Paul that there was no way for them to rebuild his elbow in a way that would let him regain movement, and that his arm would remain in whatever position they placed it in permanently. Paul then instructed the surgeons to set his arm at an angle that would allow him to cradle and pick the guitar. It took him a year and a half to recover.

He was 94.
According to Gibson Guitar, Paul died of complications from pneumonia at White Plains Hospital. His family and friends were by his side.
