Michael Jackson Filmed by Secret Police in Berlin - Bad Tour 1988 TWITTER Katherine Witt "Stars Spy Connection" Ice Skate to 'Bad' HERE: http://bit.ly/dJugs #michaeljackson FOLLOW NICHOPOULOUZO @mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn FOR MORE MAJ SPY NEWS AND ESPIONAGE VIDEO~ Dasi Sparkle reveals Michael Jackson and other western performers were spied on by East German secret police Staci. According to the news Jack sons 1988 concert in Berlin was cause for more than a stir from fans there, as the then communist regime was apparently dealing with an already restive East German youth movement. Files from the former East German secret police also suggest that Ice Skating double Gold Medalist Katerina Witt and other stars may have been used in diverting attention from Jacksons and other concerts during this time. Katrina hosted a concert featuring Brian Adams during this time, which actually did draw some attention away from what were feared to be influential performances from the west. Ironically, Katarina gave an exhibition in late 88 in the midst of her Calgary Gold Medal quest featuring none other than Michael's song Bad. Was this performance the Stasi thumbing its nose at the west and Jackson, declaring who was really bad? The Stasi evidently put forth considerable effort to watch Michael before his concert on 19 June, 1988. The documents obtained also revealed the Stasis fear of unrest from young people who apparently intended to listen to the concert from over the Berlin Wall or from in front of the Brandenburg Gate. Mitchael's West Berlin performances of Bad below, reveal a little of the power these celebrities exuded. Katrina spat the time of this Bad espionage crisis, the LA Times and other newspapers billed the Jackson Witt performances as something of a match of ideals, calling Michaels and Katerina's relative concerts an East-West battle of the bands, which according to the numbers of people at each, Katrina and Brian Adams likely won, given there were nearly 3 times as many fans attending Witt's extravaganza. Interestingly, in the Winter Olympics of 88 East German athletes won more Gold Medals than the Americans. Talk about a war of the wills! Perhaps the CIA (if they were using stars for democracy) fought a losing battle in this fact or fiction cold war. Michael never did really come off as the James Bond type for me. The real impact Michael had however, cannot be underestimated. This is just another peripheral example of the appeal and power of such personalities. @mrjyn #michaeljackson #Yoruba #video #mrjyn @nichopoulouzo #despicable ~ nichopoulouzo Michael Jackson - 'Bad' Ice Spy - Katerina Witt 1988 SPY NEWS AND ESPIONAGE VIDEO~ extravaganza.

The village has been in mourning since his death on 25 June, and will continue until a new prince is announced on Sunday. Township Krindjabo, capital of Sanwi, a small kingdom in the southeast Côte d'Ivoire, enthroned Michael Jackson 'king-in-waiting,' or prince of the Anyi people on a visit to the country in 1992. The villagers appealed without success to have the body returned. They have decided he needs to be properly buried according to the customs of the Sanwi kingdom. "He was our son. We call his body. We demand that his body be buried with dignity," explained Ahissan Nogbou, spokesman for the King of Sanwi, of the Akan group, which extends from the Cote d'Ivoire to Togo. "It would be a shame, because in the Akan tradition, he is still a prince," he argues, draped in a black mourning cloth, under the gaze of King Amon, whom according to custom, never speaks in public. "His stay lasted 30 minutes. He was crowned Amalaman Anoh, named after a former prince of the kingdom, under the palaver tree, which stands majestically in the middle of the village." *taken from International sources and translated from French to English by ~ nichopoulouzo http://www.visualguidanceltd.blogspot.com http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/8180068.stm Added: August 01, 2009, 09:04 PM Time: 1:37 Views: 77 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 1 Nazi Roseanne Anti-Semite Cookies Burn Jews FOLLOW @mrjyn NICHOPOULOUZO http://twitter.com/mrjyn for MORE LIKE Roseanne 'Hitler' Barr Burns Anti-Semite Sweets for HEEB Spread, Loses Concentration Camp Cookies Added: August 01, 2009, 01:17 PM Time: 1:01 Views: 42 Rating: Comments: 1 Responses: 1 Eudora Welty Thinks A Lot of Anne Tyler, Not Much of The New Yorker 1981 FOLLOW @mrjyn NICHOPOULOUZO http://twitter.com/mrjyn for MORE LIKE Jackson - MS Eudora Welty - 1981 Books by Anne Tyler * The Accidental Tourist * Breathing Lessons * Digging to America * Back When We Were Grownups * The Amateur Marriage: A Novel * Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant * Ladder of Years * Saint Maybe * A Patchwork Planet * Searching for Caleb http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Tyler http://www.librarything.com/author/tyleranne "Eudora Welty" 1981 "The New Yorker" "new yorker" Stories @mrjyn twitter.com/mrjyn @nichopoulouzo nichopoulouzo mrjyn "Anne Tyler" "jackson mississippi" Jackson MS "Jackson MS" eudora welty "barry hannah" Anne_Tyler "tennessee williams" librarything.com/author/tyleranne wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Tyler Added: August 01, 2009, 11:01 AM Time: 1:02 Views: 7 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 1 Busty Shoeshine - Russian Candid Camera FOLLOW NICHOPOULOUZO @mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn FOR MORE LIKE...Busty Shoeshine - Russian Candid Camera Added: August 01, 2009, 10:46 AM Time: 1:34 Views: 45 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 1 NASA - Cheerios - V-8 TV Space Offer FOLLOW Nichopoulouzo or @mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn FOR MORE LIKE...

A Brief History of Animals in Space Before humans actually went into space, one of the prevailing theories of the perils of space flight was that humans might not be able to survive long periods of weightlessness. For several years, there had been a serious debate among scientists about the effects of prolonged weightlessness. American and Russian scientists utilized animals - mainly monkeys, chimps and dogs - in order to test each country's ability to launch a living organism into space and bring it back alive and unharmed. On January 31, 1961, Ham, whose name was an acronym for H olloman A ero M ed, became the first chimpanzee in space, aboard the Mercury Redstone rocket on a sub-orbital flight very similar to Alan Shepard's. Ham was brought from the French Camaroons, West Africa, where he was born July 1957, to Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico in 1959. The original flight plan called for an altitude of 115 miles and speeds ranging up to 4400 mph. However, due to technical problems, the spacecraft carrying Ham reached an altitude of 157 miles and a speed of 5857 mph and landed 422 miles downrange rather than the anticipated 290 miles. Ham performed well during his flight and splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean 60 miles from the recovery ship. He experienced a total of 6.6 minutes of weightlessness during a 16.5-minute flight. A post-flight medical examination found Ham to be slightly fatigued and dehydrated, but in good shape otherwise. Ham's mission paved the way for the successful launch of America's first human astronaut, Alan B. Shepard, Jr., on May 5, 1961. Upon the completion of a thorough medical examination, Ham was placed on display at the Washington Zoo in 1963 where he lived alone until September 25, 1980. He then was moved to the North Carolina Zoological Park in Asheboro. Upon his death on January 17, 1983, Ham's body was preserved and loaned by the Smithsonian Institution to the International Space Hall of Fame in Alamogordo, New Mexico. ENOS: Enos became the first chimp to orbit the earth on November 29, 1961, aboard a Mercury Atlas rocket. Although the mission plan originally called for three orbits, due to a malfunctioning thruster and other technical difficulties, flight controllers were forced to terminate Enos' flight after two orbits. Enos landed in the recovery area and was picked up 75 minutes after splashdown. He was found to be in good overall condition and both he and the Mercury spacecraft performed well. His mission concluded the testing for a human orbital flight, achieved by John Glenn on February 20, 1962. Enos died at Holloman Air Force Base of a non-space related case of dysentery 11 months after his flight. ~ nichopoulouzo Added: July 31, 2009, 11:43 PM Time: 2:23 Views: 7 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 0 Obama Beer Summit - White House Responds to Media FOLLOW Nichopoulouzo or @mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn FOR MORE LIKE...

Anatomical Venus 'Anatomical Venuses' are extremely realistic models of idealised women. These figures consist of removable parts that can be 'dissected' - a breast plate is lifted to reveal the internal organs, often with a fetus in the womb. In the 19th century, the anatomical Venus formed the centrepiece of museums and travelling shows of all kinds, and possessed great power to draw crowds. 'Know thyself' was a common phrase associated with the exhibition of such models, suggesting their educational value. 30 July-18 October In the 19th century, despite the best efforts of body snatchers, the demand from medical schools for fresh cadavers far outstripped the supply. One solution to this gruesome problem came in the form of lifelike wax models. These models often took the form of alluring female figures that could be stripped and split into different sections. Other models were more macabre, showing the body ravaged by 'social diseases' such as venereal disease, tuberculosis and alcohol and drug addiction. With their capacity to titillate as well as educate, anatomical models became sought-after curiosities; displayed not only in dissecting rooms but also in sideshows and the curiosity cabinets of wealthy Victorian gentlemen. For a small admission fee, visitors seeking an unusual afternoon's entertainment could visit displays of these strange dolls in London, Paris, Brussels and Barcelona. This exhibition explores the forgotten history of the anatomical model, which with its unique combination of serious science and fairground horror provides a rare insight into 19th-century beliefs about the body. Kate Forde, the exhibition's curator, looks at a few of the key exhibits from 'Exquisite Bodies' and discusses one of the exhibition's aims: to show how 2D techniques of representing the body's layers move into 3D form, particularly with the flourishing of waxwork modeling. http://www.wellcomecollection.org/exhibitionsandevents/exhibitions/Exquisite-Bodies/Videos/WTDV026759.htm ~ nichopoulouzo Wellcome Collection 183 Euston Road London NW1 2BE, UK Added: July 31, 2009, 07:09 PM Time: 8:12 Views: 15 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 1 Charles Manson - Phil Spector - Prison Collaboration FOLLOW NICHOPOULOUZO@mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn "He's doing fair, at best, if not worse than fair, not great, horrible--virtually nothing to do."--HAL LIFSON on Phil Spector ~ MANSON PASSES NOTE TO SPECTOR: Spector's wife Rachelle revealed he received a note from CHARLES Manson. She said: "A guard brought Philip a note from Manson, who said he wanted him to come over. He said he considers Philip the greatest producer who ever lived. It was creepy. Philip didn't respond." FORCED TO SLEEP NAKED, EAT OUT OF DOG BOWL: Rachelle Spector said he was forced to sleep naked on the floor for two nights, and to eat out of a bowl like a dog. DENIAL: Prison authorities denied the claims. PUBLICIST ON MANSON AND SPECTOR: Spector is contacted by mass-murderer Charles Manson! Spector, in the medical facility at California's Corcoran State Prison was shaken by a request from Manson for a musical collaboration. *Manson is also in Corcoran's maximum security facility. Spector's publicist told The BBC that the cult leader, who once collaborated on a song with The Beach Boys, contacted the producer through a note given to a prison guard. Spector is "alarmed and scared" that Charles Manson wants to work with him. The 69-year-old music producer, jailed for 15-years-to-life for killing actress Lana Clarkson, was horrified to receive a note from the murderer via a guard. PUBLICIST ON SPECTOR'S CONDITION AND MANSON: "PHIL SPECTOR is struggling to adapt to life in prison. He has been very alarmed and scared at the notion of Charles Manson contacting him for any reason. He is very worried that any association be made between himself and Charles Manson. Phil mentioned that he used to get phone calls from John Lennon and Tina Turner, and NOW IT'S Manson CALLING. It was kind of a dark humor comment. Spector was always a highly productive, creative person and now he's in a 5ft X 9ft cell with no windows and, maybe, a half-hour outside to walk around. It's essentially solitary confinement. He doesn't have computer access. He only recently got a little TV. It's a terrible existence for a millionaire record-producer who lived in mansions, and recently, a castle--a 35-room home. It's huge! Spector has no intention of responding to the message, and is frightened by the notion that he might be associated with Manson." PRISON ALLOWS JAM SESSION:: Phil Spector would be allowed to take part in 'jam sessions' with other inmates while he serves his life sentence for murder. HIGH-RISK SPECTOR MOVED TO SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT FACILITY: A wigless, unabridged, sans wig, Spector, is now housed with threat gangsters and sex offenders. Spector was moved to the Substance Abuse Treatment Facility in California State Prison after it was deemed he may be at risk of attack by other inmates. A prison spokesman said: 'The facility he is on now houses a bunch of inmates that have instruments and they all play together on the exercise yard.' Spector may be allowed to join in. SPECTOR ACCOMMODATIONS: He has a cell to himself and can make requests. His cell-wife has already complied with a TV, an iPod, and his Phil Spector mug. CORCORAN PRISON SPECS: The state prison in Corcoran houses 6,900 inmates, and has hosted many other entertainment figures/murderers in the past. *CHARLES MANSON COLLABORATION HISTORY: In the 1960s, Manson befriended the Beach Boys' Dennis Wilson and the group released a reworked version of his track "Cease To Exist" as "Never Learn Not To Love" in 1968. He has made several records while in prison. *OTHER FAMOUS PRISONERS WHO HAVE SERVED TIME AT CORCORAN: 'Iron Man' actor Robert Downey Jr.. SPECTOR'S FLIPPED WIG: Spector has been forced to ditch his trademark wigs, and posed for a less than flattering prison mugshot which showed him bald. The 'change of life' or 'MONOPAUSE' for Phil Spector came as devastating. ~ nichopoulouzo Added: July 31, 2009, 12:30 AM Time: 1:43 Views: 45 Rating: Comments: 0 Responses: 1 Broadcast: Public Raw File: charles manson phil spector corcoran collaborat... Beer Summit (Raw Video Feed) Obama - Crowley - Gates Ale to the Chief: "The money shot was about 40 seconds of shaky pool video—captured from a sterile distance of 50 feet away—first of a butler carrying a silver tray of steins across a manicured lawn, then of the president and the vice president in breezy shirtsleeves, and the professor and the cop in formal dark suits, seated at a round white patio table, with the steins placed in front of them."--LG FOLLOW NICHOPOULOUZO @mrjyn http://www.twitter.com/mrjyn FREE BEER TOMORROW~ After all the hype for Thursdays White House Beer Summit—the cheesy countdown clocks, the silly panel discussions, CNNs arguably insane segment featuring a crazed schematic of the Rose Garden get-together—the actual event was letdown. Chris Matthews found it impossible not to compare the meeting to Bill Clintons historic White House ceremony between Yasser Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin. Even through beer goggles, the reality could never have matched the buildup—which was stoked earlier in the day by a presidential photo-op during which Barack Obama affected to be fascinated with the fascination about this evening. The president added: Its a clever term, but this is not a summit, guys, just three folks having a drink at the end of the day. Obama and Joe Biden grinned genially, leaned back, and popped nuts into their mouths. Harvard academic Henry Louis Skip Gates Jr. and Cambridge Police Sergeant James Crowley, on the far side of the table and a safe distance from each other, sat ramrod-straight and unsmiling. All that could be heard was the whirring of cameras and some muffled muttering, as the president sipped his beer, then downed a mouthful of nuts, then laughed at something, then wiped his hand on his trousers. At one point he and Gates clinked steins. Biden didnt seem interested in his nonalcoholic suds. Sgt. Crowley raised his beer to his lips and gulped, as Professor Gates lectured and gestured. Thank you! barked a White House aide, and then the pool was briskly ushered out of range. Im pretty unimpressed, Wendell, Fox complained to White House correspondent. Im pretty unimpressed, too, Goler said. Compared to its two rivals, Foxs coverage was succinct and predictably sour. Patronizing, condescending, insufferable, Fox said of Obama. Otherwise, Im sure hes a nice guy. I give President Obama a huge amount of credit for caring about Vice President Biden. And so the Teachable Moment ended—not with a bang but with a whimper of post-game analysis, on and on, into the night. A watchable moment that inevitably morphed into an unwatchable eternity. CNN owned this story—but not always in a good way. In its pre-game coverage presided earnestly in front of a multi-screen display showing live shots of various locations on the White House grounds—including a bunch of photographers doing nothing in the Briefing Room, an inert structure labeled Fence, and an otherwise unidentifiable wall labeled West Wing , complete with high-tech video pullouts, of how White House officials changed the venue of the Oktoberfest from the picnic table by the playground equipment on the South Lawn to the smaller table in the Rose Garden. FOX encouraged domestic Beerbohm to complain that the president, in choosing Bud Light as his brew, was actually celebrating a Belgian-owned company. NBC speculated that Biden would be praising Gates as clean and articulate. Matthews did a live opening segment replete with assessments of body language and facial expressions, and found it impossible not to compare the meeting to Bill Clintons historic White House ceremony between Yasser Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin. Sgt. Crowleys televised news conference at AFL-CIO headquarters: This supposedly media-innocent cop was thoughtful, relaxed, and even humorous before the cameras as he announced that he and the professor were planning to meet again. Do you know where youre meeting? a reporter asked. I do, Crowley answered with a tiny grin. Can you tell us? the reporter pressed. No! Crowley shot back—getting rewarded with a roar of laughter. Afterward CNN marveled: He sounded at points like a politician. Politicos agreed: NBC bureau chief chimed in: A star is born. But Matthews came up with a metaphor befitting the strange excess of the night: Weve got another Susan Boyle here.

On Tuesday, officers from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) swooped on the house of Jackson's personal doctor, Conrad Murray, who was with the star on the day of his death last month. Officers confiscated Murray's computer and cell phone from his Las Vegas residence as they investigate possible manslaughter charges against him. Now a second medic is facing the police probe. Los Angeles County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter searched the Beverly Hills medical offices of Dr. Lawrence Koplin on Wednesday, reportedly looking for records from the medic's nurse anesthetist David Fournier. Jackson's dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein, performed procedures on the star at Dr. Koplin's office with Fournier administering anesthesia, according to TMZ.com. On leaving Koplin's offices, Winter confirmed he is "still looking for medical records involving Michael Jackson."

Where Will You Put Your Limited Edition Michael Jackson Lithograph?

"In a white suit, as pure as his heart."

by Amelie Gillette July 17, 2009

Are your commemorative Elvis plates looking rather old and dusty? Has your framed Ol' Blue Eyes memorial poster seen better days? Well, why not upgrade to a new tacky knick-knack memorializing a dead pop icon? After all, Michael Jackson just died.  Why not let his tragic death (and life) be your excuse to redecorate!

MJLitho.com has just what you're looking for:

Michael Jackson's profound impact on society and popular culture will undoubtedly last for decades. Jackson wanted to change the world, one song at a time. For many, he did. Now, own a lasting piece of history and keep his dreams alive with the new Michael Jackson Commemorative Lithograph from TeleBrands....

TELEBrands products such as the PedEgg, PediPaws, Westinghouse® StickUp Bulb and the Windshield Wonder are sold through television advertising, the Internet and in retail stores in over 100 countries around the world.

You know you've had a profound impact on pop culture when, not even a month after your sudden death, someone is selling your image like a PedEgg. (The infomercial, which outlines how the "elegant" poster shows Michael in "a white suit as pure as his heart," can be found here.)

But the question remains, after slicing off part of your soul and giving it to ghouls (along with $10), where will you put your limited edition™ Michael Jackson lithograph?

In your personal Poster Petting Zoo?

Maybe in your ghosts n' roses room?

Of course, it would also look nice in your Michael Jackson reading room, which is the room where you sit and read about Michael Jackson (and only Michael Jackson).

Or you could put it in the Surface Of The Sun room, which is the room that you painted a retina-burning shade of bright orange for some reason. It'll distract from the color...maybe.

But perhaps it will look best in your MJ Mourning Corner, near the piano covered in candles.

Wherever you choose to place your lithograph(s), you can be sure that mourning has never been this tasteful. After all, you have a certificate of authenticity. For a death poster.

Pirates sell commemorative Michael Jackson DVDs in China

Tue-Jun 30, 2009

Beijing / AFP

Chinese music pirates have issued a set of Michael Jackson commemorative DVDs less than a week after his death, with the pop star's Complete 50 Year Record on sale in Beijing video shops today. The two-DVD set includes Jackson's greatest video hits, footage from concerts in Romania and Japan, The King of Pop History on Film, as well as other Jackson videos.

"These are selling very fast," said a DVD seller in Beijing's Jianguomen diplomatic quarter. "We are expecting a new shipment in tomorrow with more selections." Jackson died Thursday after collapsing at his home in Los Angeles. He was 50.

Jackson was hugely popular in China, especially in the 1980s and 1990s, when his music was among the first Western pop songs available after the nation opened up to the outside world.

The Human Shrub strikes again... with his wife the Human Shrubette | Mail Online

The Human Shrub strikes again... with his wife the Human Shrubette

His costume of straggly weeds is a far cry from the sleek outfits sported by traditional superheroes, yet his mission to transform neglected public gardens is just as admirable.

But now it seems that, like most crusaders, the green-fingered campaigner known only as the Human Shrub does not work alone.

Yesterday the guerrilla gardener turned up at a shabby communal garden with a trusty sidekick – his wife, Mrs Shrub.

Leaf police: The human shrub with his wife

She arrived decked out in the trademark foliage suit, teamed with a bright pink apron and a tray of cherry bakewell tarts.

The pair had organised a party of volunteer gardeners to descend on the scruffy patch of land in Hubert Road in Colchester, Essex. The team – rounded up through social networking site Facebook – spent the morning sprucing up the patch, weeding and planting donated shrubs and flowers.

Digging in: The couple get down to work

Little is known about the Human Shrub aside from his age, 39, and his burning passion for all things green.

Rumoured to be a Conservative activist intent on making the local council reconsider budget cuts for public gardens, his first act of rebellion was to parade along the local high street during a council meeting

in protest against plans to cut back rose bushes completely to save the cost of maintaining them.

Crusader: The Human Shrub's mission is to transform neglected public gardens

He later shamed the Labour and Lib Dem-run council by replanting ugly weed-strewn plant pots in the town with bright flowers, leaving the message: ‘To Colchester, with love, the Human Shrub.’

Myra Kimsey, 80, who lives near the Hubert Road site, said: ‘I think what he’s doing is fantastic. If only more people followed suit.’

Capes and cake: Tony and Sarah’s big superhero wedding

"We're really doing this!" says Sarah LaFore, dressed as Wonder Woman, to her groom-to-be Superman, a.k.a, Tony Lucchese, after donning her costume for the rehearsal at a rented warehouse in Portland. They are to be married today in their "three-act Super Wedding."

The "Super Wedding's" groomsmen include Spider-Man, Aquaman, Flash, The Hulk and Batman.

Amber Waterman/Sun Journal

Tony Lucchese and Sarah LaFore, dressed as Superman and Wonder Woman, will be married at a Fortress of Solitude altar — built by the groom and a few friends — in a rented warehouse space in Portland today.

Amber Waterman/Sun Journal

Tony Lucchese and Sarah LaFore make a few last-minute decisions before their "Super Wedding" today in Portland.

Amber Waterman/Sun Journal Bride Sarah LaFore, right, instructs her Amazon warrior bridesmaids in their entrance before groom Tony Lucchese warned them of the hazards of their spears. "They're theatrically blunted, but they can still do some damage!" said Lucchese.

When he proposed, Tony Lucchese told Sarah LaFore that she was his kryptonite.

He gave her a green diamond ring. Then he got planning.

On their big day, Batman could rappel from the ceiling. Superman could say his vows to Wonder Woman. The whole wedding party — and guests — could dress up.

After an exploratory climb, the dive from the rafters was nixed — it's no grand entrance if the best man breaks a leg. Guests-to-be said they'd rather hear Tony marry Sarah than Superman marry Wonder Woman.

Then bridesmaids balked at fishnets and leotards.

They told LaFore: "We love you a lot, but we don't know if we love you enough to wear spandex."

Undaunted, Lucchese went back to work.

The script has been polished. The stage built. The costumes fitted.

Eighteen months in the making, today's the day for their superhero wedding.

"We're really hoping a lot of villains show up," LaFore said.

The couple met seven years ago in Tennessee on a production of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" at the Oak Ridge Playhouse. He was artistic director, she was in the show.

They moved to Portland in 2006. Both are full-time students at the University of Southern Maine. Lucchese, 31, is entering grad school to be a math teacher. LaFore, 34, is studying to be a marine biologist.

When the superhero idea first came up, they weren't even engaged. And neither is a huge comic-book fan. But Lucchese had a Superman T-shirt he wore a lot. He could work his hair into the perfect Supes' spit-curl.

And they both love a good production.

"It was a joke for a number of years," he said. "At some point we came to the painful realization it wasn't a joke anymore."

Lucchese decided early that great costumes would be key to pulling it off. He tracked down a New Jersey designer who's made costumes for theme parks and the Syfy Channel.

"Everyone involved is doing a few extra crunches and forgoing a few extra desserts during the week to pull off spandex," said best man Eric Kieschnick of Pennsylvania. "It's the opposite of a gut-hiding cummerbund."

Aquaman, Flash and Spider-Man round out the groomsmen. Ten bridesmaids will be Amazon warriors — in comic mythos, Wonder Woman is an Amazon princess — with spears, togas and sandals.

Two weeks ago, LaFore and Lucchese made an emergency trip to Jersey, down and back in one day, to tweak her costume.

"Paramount to having a successful wedding is having the bride feel pretty," he said.

He and volunteer carpenters built a Fortress of Solitude altar in a rented warehouse space in Portland. They'll be married by Kieschnick's father, dressed as Jor-El, Superman's dad. Part of the script borrows from Kryptonian wedding vows. The couple will break character to say, "I do."

"I watch him try to come up with ideas for certain things; I feel like I'm sitting on the sidelines like a groom," LaFore said. "I've loved every minute of it. I love that he's so excited about the planning."

They expect 85 guests and plan three cakes: One with Wonder Woman and Superman on top, one with Marvel figures and a third for DC characters. Instead of flowers, they'll decorate with superhero paraphernalia.

Lucchese said he turned to Casablanca Comics in Portland as a "sort of superhero library," with staff helping them find back issues like Action Comics' "Supergirl's Wedding Day." When he ordered posters from Canada to hang around the warehouse and they got stuck in U.S. Customs, the comic book store donated a bunch.

Lucchese spent the days leading up to Saturday on final touches, arranging enormous set pieces cut and painted to look like crystals, adjusting lights and cuing up sound.

For example, "When I put a little kryptonite shard (in a tube) to bring the fortress to life, I have some ringing crystal sounds," Lucchese said.

Kieschnick, who works in film and television, applauded his friends' "theatrical commitment."

"I certainly was wary of rappelling at first. Once I warmed to the idea, I mourned its loss," he said.

But wait just a minute, Batman.

"He's actually going to be sliding down a pole now, he doesn't really know it yet," Lucchese said. "Spidey is swinging in on a rope."

CHARLES MANSON'S SECRET PRISON BUSINESS- New York Post

August 2, 2009 --

CHARLES Manson secretly runs an autograph business out of his cell, peddling his signature to sicko collectors of crime memorabilia, a new book claims.

In "Five to Die," out this month from Thor Publishing, veteran journalist Ivor Davis claims the homicidal cult leader has become one of the richest inmates in the California corrections system by selling signed photos and other mementos he quietly smuggles out of Corcoran State Prison.

"Only he doesn't even sign the pictures. He has fellow inmates doing an assembly line of signatures for him. It shows you he's still manipulating people. It really boggles the mind," Davis told Page Six.

"Manson has also tried to smuggle pieces of his clothing out. And he fashions these little cloth scorpions out of socks to sell. Most of them are confiscated by guards, but some make it out," said Davis, adding that money from the proceeds is then sent to Manson's prison trust-fund account.

He added that Manson devotee Sandra Good -- who was not involved in the Manson family murders but served 15 years for sending death threats to corporate executives she accused of "polluting the earth" -- occasionally helps him with cash.

But prison spokeswoman Terry Thornton told us that while Manson is allowed to mail items to outsiders who then could sell them, officials could find no evidence of an autograph business. She added that people can send inmates small amounts of money -- typically $5 to $40 -- and that Good had sent Manson money in the past.

Manson -- who masterminded the savage Tate/LaBianca killings 40 years ago this month -- is now 74 and serving life behind bars. "He's described as a little slower, and spends a lot of time in his cell . . . playing his guitar and singing songs," Thornton said. In recent years, he was cited for possession of a weapon and threatening a guard, she said.
