HERE'S THE PART WHERE I GET OBSSESSED WITH FANS! I WAITED AS LONG AS I COULD--SORRY! MJJCommunity
MJJCommunityMJJ is gone! OMG!! I just can't believe it. At first I thought they were reporting a publicity prank...but then I thought "Naw. Even he wouldn't stoop to that". I just can't get over it. RIP MJJ. Your physical body is no longer with us, but your spirit lives on in each of us.
My heart is heavy every day...I wake up wanting to cry my eyes out. My heart aches to hear all of the heartbreak you had to endure during your lifetime, Michael. May you walk with the Angels now. And I will never ever ever forget you. You will always be the King of Pop to me. Always.
May we take this opportunity to make a solemn vow to really "Change The World", to make this world a better place...
To those who aided and abetted Mr. Jackson in his descent into the hell of prescription drug abuse, I say Go To Hell. You have Mr. Jackson's blood on your hands. You saw someone who was addicted, yet you did nothing to stop this. You could have refused to fill a prescription or two....and got him weaned off of the stuff. But he was just a fucking dollar bill to you wasn't he? I mean, the man was a human being. He deserved love just as much as you or I do.
I can't help it. It makes me very angry when I see a train wreck in progress. I felt so helpless watching it. Say what you will, I recognized the signs of his addiction from a long time ago. And it angered me that the people who allowed this to happen aren't saying anything. They have his blood on their hands. I hope and pray some good can come out of this - like the loss of his personal physicians license to practice anywhere in the United States or the WORLD for that matter. People like this call themselves "doctors"?? The word DOCTOR means "One Who Heals". Was THAT "healing" I ask, SIR?? Did you think you were "healing" Mr. Jackson by bowing to his demands? Where are your ETHICS sir?? What about that Hippocratic Oath??

Greek Wikisource has original text related to this article: Ἱπποκράτειος ὅρκος
Original, translated into English:[3]
“ I swear by Apollo, the healer, Asclepius, Hygieia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgment, the following Oath and agreement: To consider dear to me, as my parents, him who taught me this art; to live in common with him and, if necessary, to share my goods with him; To look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art.
I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.
I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.
But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts.
I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest; I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners, specialists in this art.
In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves.
All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal.
If I keep this oath faithfully, may I enjoy my life and practice my art, respected by all men and in all times; but if I swerve from it or violate it, may the reverse be my lot.
”For those of you unfamiliar with Morphine, here is a drug description:
From: http://www.rxmed.com/b.main/b2.pharmaceutical/b2.1.monographs/CPS-%20Monographs/CPS-%20(General%20Monographs-%20M)/MORPHINE%20SULFATE%20INJECTION%20BP.html
Manufacturers' Warnings In Clinical States: Morphine can produce dependence and therefore has the potential for being abused. Psychic dependence, physical dependence and tolerance may develop upon repeated administration of morphine.
Morphine should be used with caution and in reduced dosage in patients who are concurrently receiving other opioid analgesics, general anesthetics, phenothiazines, other tranquilizers, sedative-hypnotics, tricyclic antidepressants and other CNS depressants (including alcohol). Respiratory depression, hypotension and profound sedation or coma may result.
Symptoms And Treatment Of Overdose: Symptoms: Overdosage with morphine is characterized by respiratory depression (a decrease in respiratory rate and/or tidal volume, Cheyne-Stokes respiration, cyanosis), extreme somnolence progressing to stupor or coma, skeletal muscle flaccidity, cold and clammy skin, and sometimes bradycardia and hypotension. In severe overdosage, apnea, circulatory collapse, cardiac arrest and death may occur. tag_Treatment
Treatment: Immediate attention should be given to the re-establishment of adequate respiratory exchange through provision of a patent airway and institution of assisted or controlled ventilation.
Oxygen, i.v. fluids, vasopressors and other supportive measures should be employed as indicated.
The opioid antagonist naloxone is a specific antidote against respiratory depression which may result from overdosage or unusual sensitivity to opioids. The recommended adult dose of naloxone is 0.4 to 2 mg i.v. every 2 to 3 minutes as necessary, simultaneously with assisted respiration.
An antagonist should only be administered in cases of clinically significant respiratory or cardiovascular depression.
In an individual physically dependent on opioids, the administration of the usual dose of opioid antagonist will precipitate an acute withdrawal syndrome. The severity of this syndrome will depend on the degree of physical dependence and the dose of antagonist administered. The use of opioid antagonists in such individuals should be avoided if possible. If an opioid antagonist must be used to treat serious respiratory depression in the physically dependent patient, the antagonist should be administered with extreme care at about 10 to 20% the usual initial dose administered.****

News of Jackson's Death Prompts Fight Fla. Bus 
Michael Jackson News Sunday, 28 June 2009
NORTH LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- Florida officials say one passenger chased another down the aisle of a county bus during a fight over news of Michael Jackson's death.
The Broward County Sheriff's Office says 54-year-old Henry Wideman was released Saturday on $5,000 bond on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. A phone number for him rang unanswered.
According to a release from the sheriff's office, 60-year-old James Kiernan announced news of the pop singer's death on a bus Thursday night. The driver, who wasn't identified, said Jackson should have been jailed long ago.
The sheriff's office says Wideman got angry when Kiernan responded that the world just lost a great musical talent.
Wideman allegedly shouted profanities and threats at Kiernan and chased him with a knife. Kiernan wasn't hurt.

Oldest regiment in the Regular Army in continuous active service, originating in Coldstream, Scotland in 1650 when "General George Monck" founded the regiment. It is one of two regiments of the Household Division that can trace its lineage to the New Model Army, the other being the Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons).
The grouping of buttons on the tunic is a common way to distinguish between the regiments of Foot Guards. Coldstream buttons are arranged in pairs, and a star of the garter is marked on their brassware.

Earlier today, the 1,500 orange-jumpsuit-clad inmates of the Cebu Provincial Detention & Rehabilitation Center on the east coast of Cebu Island in the Philippines reprised their phenomenally popular 2007 viral performance of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" to honor the King Of Pop, who died Thursday. After that, they performed this touching new tribute:

Claude Friese-Greene's 'The Open Road' is available to buy on DVD
This extract comes from Claude Friese-Greene's 'The Open Road' - originally filmed in 1925/6 and now re-edited and digitally restored by the BFI National Archive. Britain seen in colour for the first time was heralded as a great technical advance for the cinema audience - now we can view a much improved image, but one which still stays true to the principles of the colour process.
The rather haphazard journey from Land's End to John O'Groats creates a series of moving picture postcards. Look out for shots containing the component colours - red and blue-green - such as when a little girl in a red coat and hat walks among peacocks in the grounds of a castle, and three girls with red curly hair pose by the sea at Torquay.
The car is a Vauxhall D-type - considered a sporty model at the time. A long-distance journey by car was a relatively new concept, with none of the amenities en route now taken for granted. The visit to a petrol station shows smoking on the forecourt: no health and safety issues back then! The travelogue ends with a series of recognisable London landmarks. Much remains the same - one major exception being the volume of traffic on the roads. (Jan Faull)
