		<description><![CDATA[New evidence of Michael Jackson's influence is popping up throughout the Internet in the form of tributes to the deceased entertainer. Friends and fans alike are passing along links to websites like Eternal Moonwalk, where a continuous loop of home videos shows people performing Jackson's signature move. Other homages highlight his artistic genius, and one particular YouTube user is publishing video mash-ups that combine Jackson's music with old footage of song-and-dance icons perceived to be his artistic inspirations from entertainment's past. Check out the following series of clips that chronicle evidence of a historical evolution behind what eventually came to be Michael Jackson's "Moonwalk." ...<hr />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For some, Michael Jackson's sudden death at 50 was sweet in the sense that it fostered a tremendous sense of love around the globe. He was such a beloved figure by so many people, and that love is reciprocating itself tenfold in their remembrance of a man who inspired and encouraged them to be better human beings. For others, it was bitter because he led such a tragic and tortured existence, one that was oftentimes difficult to witness and even harder to understand. For me, it was both. Many years ago, I let go of a person so incredibly admired throughout my childhood, not because of the legal accusations filed against him or the media crucifixion that followed, but simply because I no longer recognized him ...<hr />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["They're coming."

That was the last line of special significance spoken by a character on LOST prior to Juliet's screeching whimper as she pounded away at a stubborn nuclear reactor that Mr. Fix-It, Sayid, promised would detonate on impact. Apparently, all it took was some good old-fashioned elbow grease to make the thing act right, despite a compelling fall from grace. It's a good thing she let go of Sawyer's hand, and I guess those frustrated with the quadrilateral love connection can at least take comfort knowing it was a necessary plot twist that would pave a path towards their expulsion from 1977.
