Dance-pop isaac Merrit Singer Jessica Simpson was innate and brocaded in Dallas, TX, beginning her playing career as a dude member of her church building choir; at 12, she likewise auditioned unsuccessfully for The Mickey Mouse Club. While attention church camp the following summertime, Simpson was observed by the head of a flyspeck CCM label and fatigued the adjacent trey years transcription her debut album. The label, however, folded forward the record could be released, although a little pressing was eventually funded by her nanna. Nevertheless, the teen became a reach on the Christian Youth Conference circuit, as well sharing bills with Kirk Franklin, God's Property, and CeCe Winans.


Quest to expand her popularity in the secular grocery, Simpson by and by gestural to Sony and toured in reenforcement of boy dance band sensations 98°. Her 1999 major-label debut, Fresh Kisses, launched the boom "I Wanna Love You Forever." A s studio apartment exertion, Irresistible, appeared in bounce 2001. Despite the MTV coverage of the album's title track, Simpson's sophomore campaign didn't fare as well as her first album. The following class, Simpson marital her longtime young man, 98° balladeer Nick Lachey. She besides went on to appear in various episodes of That '70s Show, merely it took Simpson until summer 2003 to become a bona fide celebrity. She and Lachey's MTV-produced reality evince, Newlyweds, captured infinite moments of the couple's first year of marriage.


Simpson's third album, the very much more mature In This Skin, appeared in July. First single "Sweetest Sin" was a chasten graph hit, merely thanks to the winner of Newlyweds, Simpson's teetering life history got a second chance. A indorsement single, "With You," was a front-runner among the MTV crowd, and by spring 2004, In This Skin was re-released. It included reworked versions of Berlin's "Fill My Breath Away" and Robbie Williams' "Angels" as well as extra footage from the first season of Newlyweds. Simpson fatigued the rest of 2004 and early 2005 working on the instant time of year of Newlyweds, as easily as on her part as Daisy Duke in the Dukes of Hazard motion picture.

A Public Affair arrived in summer 2006 and was influenced by everything from '80s new wave to modern-day rural area.

Early Warning Of Leukaemia Or False Alarm?

�Researchers have for the first clip shown that many people have cells in their blood which appear identical to cancer of the blood and even so the risk of exposure of developing the disease for most is well-nigh zero. This has prompted the enquiry that spell early signal detection of genus Cancer greatly improves the chances of successful treatment, is it possible that some cancers are being detected too early?



Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is the most unwashed leukaemia in the western world and is often detected in people wHO do not have whatsoever symptoms. Only about half of these people will ever indigence treatment with chemotherapy for CLL. For those world Health Organization never grow symptoms the greatest problem is the stress and anxiety associated with a diagnosis of leukaemia.



Using a common blood test, it is possible to detect CLL-like cells in about 1 in 20 adults. Fewer than 1 in 1,000 adults will evolve CLL, and therefore many scientists sentiment that these leukaemia-like cells would turn out to be a rare merely otherwise normal cell type which should be readily distinguishable from CLL.



However, studies funded by Leukaemia Research and published today in the New England Journal of Medicine establish that these cells are abnormal in many shipway. In fact, the leukaemia-like cells so closely resemble CLL that the most advanced techniques cannot tell them apart. Dr Andy Rawstron, wHO led the research, aforementioned: " the merely clear difference from CLL is that these cells do non multiply and expand over time " .



The researchers at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals then went on to assess the risk factors for developing progressive disease by reviewing the issue for various hundred individuals diagnosed with CLL 'tween 1995 and 2000 merely with relatively low levels of CLL cells in their blood. Fewer than one in ten compulsory chemotherapy.



As the first-class honours degree study to provide five-year outcome data for this group of patients, the information has been primal to changing the diagnostic criteria for CLL. Between 500 and 1,000 people per year in the UK with lower levels of CLL cells will no longer be classified as having leukaemia. Dr Rawstron said: " It is now inevitable that routine blood line tests identify individuals with leukaemia-like cells. As a result of this sketch we have a better understanding of the risk of infection of disease progression for individuals with early stage CLL. We can habit this data to downplay unnecessary focus and anxiety. For individuals with very low levels of CLL-like cells in their blood the risk of development the disease is virtually zero. "




The findings ar published in the New England Journal of Medicine.



1.The account is published on 7 August 2008 in the New England Journal of Medicine under the title 'MBL: a precursor department of State for CLL'. Senior authors: Dr Andy Rawstron, Dr Peter Hillmen and Dr Andrew Jack - all of Leeds Teaching Hospitals.



2.The exploit was funded by Leukaemia Research and the Ellis family.



3. Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is the most common form of leukaemia ground in the western world. It is a malignant neoplastic disease of the blood cells that are responsible for the production of antibodies in response to infection. The relative incidence of CLL increases with age and most patients are over 50 days of age. Although CLL may be an aggressive and fateful condition, many patients throw a stable disease that may not require active treatment or significantly shorten their lives.



4. Leukaemia Research is the only when national charity devoted entirely to improving treatments, finding cures and learning how to keep leukaemia, Hodgkin's and other lymphomas, myeloma and the related blood disorders, diagnosed in 24,500 people in the UK every year.



5. Over the next five years, Leukaemia Research urgently needs to raise over �100million to commit to new research. From basic laboratory research to clinical trials with patients, Leukaemia Research is committed to saving lives by backing high character, carefully selected research end-to-end the UK. Further information, including patient information booklets, is uncommitted from hTTP://www.lrf.org.uk.

CD: Coldplay, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends

No less a musical authority than Guy Hands has called Viva la Vida "the most anticipated album of the year". For once, it's hard to argue with the new EMI boss: the anticipation comes not just as a result of Coldplay's preceding vast success, but the sense that they finally might be about to offer something different from the increasingly windy and lachrymose stadium ballads that fuelled it. Rock's most celebrated blue-sky thinker, Brian Eno, is on board. There are intimations of artistic insurrection and tumult. The album's title may sound like something you'd find on the cocktail menu on TGI Friday, but it comes from a painting by surrealist Frida Kahlo. The cover features Delacroix's romantic depiction of the spirit of revolution, Liberty Leading the People Over the Barricades.












Meanwhile, singer Chris Martin recently stormed out of a puff-piece newspaper interview, declaring "we don't care if we sell a million less records". This parting shot proves telling about the actual scale of reinvention that Vida la Vida offers. Announcing that you don't care if you sell a million fewer records sounds bullish, until you realise that X&Y sold 10m copies. Selling a million fewer than that hardly constitutes throwing commercial considerations to the wind in favour of a bafflingly abstruse artistic statement. Notice is thus served that we may not be dealing with The Faust Tapes here.

Such thoughts are underlined by opener Life In Technicolor. It starts as a Kraftwerkish instrumental, before the arrival of drums, guitars and a woah-oh chorus suitable for singing en masse in a sports stadium. Indeed, there are moments during Viva la Vida where you feel impelled to take Coldplay aside and explain to them that there's more to reinventing your sound than calling Brian Eno, coming up with some enigmatic song titles and telling people you've reinvented your sound: you are actually supposed to change your music as well.

There's certainly a wider sonic palette on offer - a jerkily funky beat powering Cemeteries of London, a vaguely African-sounding guitar line on Strawberry Swing - but it's discreet shading. Coldplay's constituent elements remain intact: mid-tempo songs, echoing guitars, piano ballads that surge into bittersweet anthemics, falsetto vocals. The words continue to deal only in the most general of generalities - "Just be patient and don't worry", "You've got to soldier on". The messages are weighty and inarguable (42, for example, has sussed out that when people die, their loved ones remember them), but the fear that Martin could let fly with a line about tomorrow being the first day of the rest of your life looms ever-present.

Lyrics aside, Viva la Vida fixes most of the glaring problems with 2005's X&Y, simply by eschewing verse-chorus structures in favour of something more episodic. Uncoupling them from the standard framework allows Chris Martin's melodies to shine: even his loudest detractor could hardly deny his way with a tune, as evidenced here by 42 and Lovers in Japan.

Perhaps more importantly, the songs seem less thuddingly predictable than Fix You or What If? Confronted with a title track so clearly destined to get huge crowds punching the air, you might say that the results are more subtle only in the same way that being slapped across the face is more subtle than being smashed over the head with a breezeblock. But there's no doubt it seems noticeably less craven in its attempt to tug the world's heartstrings.

One might argue that Viva la Vida's mild tinkering with the formula represents a failure of imagination: perhaps it's hard to think outside the box when the box is the size of the Las Vegas MGM Grand Garden Arena. Equally, however, there's a genuine conviction about its contents, a huge advance both on its predecessor and their legion of imitators.

Coldplay remain thunderingly uncool, a state of affairs you suspect couldn't be altered whether they were being produced by Brian Eno, Brian Wilson or Brian Cant: I have a terrible feeling that 42 is a reference to the meaning of life in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, thus raising the prospect that their next album might include songs called This Is An Ex-Parrot and I Invented It in Camberwell and It Looks Like a Carrot. At its best, however, Viva la Vida poses an interesting question: do you need to be cool or experimental if you can write songs that carry the listener along regardless of their reservations - indeed, almost despite them?

Lil Wayne/ Paris Hilton Producer Scott Storch Wanted By Police For Skipping Child-Support Hearing




Formerly red-hot producer Scott Storch, known for his signature aviator shades, high living and banging beats, is facing some hard financial times.

According to the Miami Herald, after the beatmaster failed to show up for a child-support hearing regarding his 2-year-old son Jalen last week, a judge issued a pickup order that authorized cops to jail Storch, 34, until he appears in court. On top of those troubles, the flashy producer — behind hits by Paris Hilton, Dr. Dre, Eminem and Lil Wayne — is reportedly behind on property-tax payments on his $10 million Miami mansion and has not made support payments on one of his other kids in five months.

Storch's lawyer, Guy Spiegelman, said the financial snafus will be rectified soon and are the result of misconduct by the producer's former managers. Spiegelman told MTV News that he didn't know why Storch didn't make it to the court date — speculating that "he must have been out of town on work" — but said the support issue will be resolved shortly. "He doesn't deny paternity, but it's an issue of collection of money," the attorney said.

The missed child-support hearing was intended to explain why Storch is behind on at least $46,000 in child support, which includes $16,000 toward Jalen's Florida Prepaid College Plan. Dalene Jennifer Daniel, Jalen's mother, sued Storch for paternity in 2006 and has claimed that he has not lived up to the settlement agreement. And she's not the only one after the "Lean Back" producer for child support. Vanessa Bellido, 33, mother of 16-year-old Steven Bellido, has filed a paternity suit against the producer, who has acknowledged that Steven is his son.

The Herald reported that Storch had acknowledged previously that he is the boy's father and had been sending support payments until January but has since ceased. Bellido said without the money, she and her son are having a hard time.

"While [Storch] drives around in his Ferrari and Cadillac, [Steven] is sleeping on a couch in the same room with his mother," Bellido claimed, according to her emergency petition for child support. "The situation is dire." A car that Storch provided for the teen has reportedly been repossessed, and court documents show that Bellido claims Storch is $5,000 behind in promised tuition payments, which has put the boy's junior year of school "in jeopardy."

"It's coincidental," Spiegelman said of the dual support claims. "He stopped paying in the early portion of this year because he had mismanagement of his funds and had a big shortfall, which will be corrected soon." Spiegelman did not say who was handling Storch's affairs before, but he said the producer has been "more than generous" with both women, paying each around $7,500 a month.

Spiegelman said Storch has put together a new management team and that the financial issues will be resolved soon.

The money troubles don't stop there, though. The paper also reported that Storch is way behind on property taxes on his $10 million mansion. According to records, Storch owes more than a half-million dollars in property taxes from the past two years, a deficit Spiegelman said would also be settled soon. "The numbers are staggering because the taxes are awfully high on the property," he said, adding that he also expects to have the arrest warrant quashed within the week.

In February, LA Confidential Records owner David Menefield won a $500,000 judgment against Storch over claims that he loaned the producer $100,000 in 2003 to save the house from foreclosure and never received the four music tracks Storch had promised to Menefield's artists.

The financial crunch is especially surprising given that in 2006, Rolling Stone estimated Storch's fortune at around $70 million, but Spiegelman said "the numbers out there are not always accurate." He said the producer has a high income and the amounts he owes are above average, "but when you make that kind of money, when things go bad, they're not minor, they're catastrophic."

Lopez' Chorus Line To Close

Mario Lopez couldn't rescue Broadway show A Chorus Line from the axe - it's closing in New York five months after he first took to the stage. Producers hired the former Dancing With The Stars star in April to boost falling theatre attendances. But he has just filled 60 per cent of New York's Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre since starting his run - and bosses are pulling the plug on the 18-month-long revival of the dance spectacular. The final performance will be 17 August .

Filmmaker Ari Gold Makes ‘Frogger: The Movie’

Bob Geldof Gives Daughters Peaches and Pixie a Curfew

Rocker Bob Gelof has given his hard-partying daughters a strict curfew.


The former Boomtown Rats star, 56, is so worried about the girls' wild ways, he has demanded they return home by 11pm.


Peaches, 19, was recently quizzed by police for allegedly buying drugs, so Geldof is determined to keep 17-year-old Pixie safe.


Having been to a fashion party at London's Earl's Court, Pixi headed to the Hospital Club for the MySpace Mars Planets Radio bash.


A source reveals, "As she was going in someone told her the time. Pixie blurted, 'Oh my God, I have to go! If I break my curfew I'm not allowed to any parties for the rest of the week'."

'Kung Fu Panda' beats projections

Adam Sandler's 'Zohan' also tops forecasts in second





Moviegoers across North America were in a fighting mood during the weekend, cheering the family cartoon "Kung Fu Panda" to the top spot at a boxoffice packed with hits. DreamWorks Animation's Jack Black comedy about a panda who dreams of martial arts glory handily beat forecasts by earning an estimated $60 million during its first three days, distributor Paramount Pictures said on Sunday. But it was not a complete knockout. Columbia Pictures' Adam Sandler comedy "You Don't Mess with the Zohan," in which the comedian plays an Israeli commando-turned-New York hairdresser, opened at No. 2 with $40 million, also beating forecasts. Going into the weekend, the championship could have gone either way. In one corner, "Kung Fu Panda" was powered by rave reviews and an underserved family audience; in the other, Sandler could count on young male fans unlikely to be swayed by negative notices from puzzled critics. Last weekend's champ, New Line Cinema's romantic comedy "Sex and the City," fell to No. 4 with $21.3 million, a massive 63 percent drop from its surprisingly strong opening weekend. Sales to date stand at $99.3 million for the big-screen adaptation of HBO's fashion-and-relationship series. Just ahead of it was "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" with $22.8 million, down one place. The total for the Paramount-distributed adventure rose to $253 million after three weekends.

Judge orders 50 Cent not to sell fire-ravaged property

A judge has ordered 50 Cent to keep the New York property where his mansion was destroyed by a suspicious fire two weeks ago.

The rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, was told by New York State Supreme Court Justice Carol Edmead that he may not sell the Long Island property.

He was also ordered to put insurance proceeds in a trust account pending the outcome of his dispute with ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins, reports the Associated Press.

The home was at the centre of a legal dispute between 50 Cent and his ex-girlfriend, which became increasingly heated just before the fire, as previously reported.

Six people inside the Dix Hills home were taken to a hospital for smoke inhalation treatment and then released.
