Jackson to be interred Aug. 29 at Forest Lawn in Glendale

After 2 months.. Finally he can rest in peace... Source from : http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-jackson-glendale19-2009aug19,0,7850682.story With his love of old-time Hollywood glamour, showy art and showmanship, Michael Jackson would probably have welcomed his family's announcement Tuesday that his remains will be interred in the star-laden, sculpture-speckled confines of Forest Lawn Memorial-Park in Glendale. Jackson will be interred Aug. 29, which would have been his 51st birthday, in an intimate morning service for family and friends in the expansive cemetery's Great Mausoleum, according to a statement from the family publicist. The pop singer's remains will be placed in a crypt in the Holly Terrace section of the mausoleum, a massive building that is the final resting place for stars from film's golden age, such as Jean Harlow, Carole Lombard and Clark Gable. Jackson, who spent lavishly on antiques and fancy reproductions, is to be placed in an area decorated by sculptures and bronzes of American icons, including George Washington, Mark Twain, Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt on a property that has replicas of Michelangelo statues and a stained glass window depicting the "Last Supper." The funeral announcement capped two months of rumors that began even before Jackson's gold-plated casket was rolled into Staples Center on July 7 for a televised memorial. That day began with a service at Forest Lawn but ended without a burial or interment. One report had his body stored in a crypt owned by Motown founder Berry Gordy Jr., and there was widespread speculation that an elaborate grave -- and ultimately, a Graceland-style museum -- would be constructed at the entertainer's Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara County. But Jackson's family, led by his 79-year-old mother, Katherine, selected Forest Lawn, a 20-minute trip across the San Fernando Valley from their Encino home. Neither a cemetery spokesman nor the Jacksons' publicist would comment on the reasons for their choice. In choosing Forest Lawn, Jackson's family opted for a place with the over-the-top qualities that the pop star loved in life and the privacy guarantees that eluded him. The 103-year-old property's 290 acres straddle the border of Glendale and Los Angeles. It changed the design of cemeteries by re-imagining them as park-like outdoor museums with rolling hills dotted by inspiring statues and uninterrupted by upright gravestones. Outlining this new approach in 1917, Forest Lawn's general manager, Hubert Eaton, wrote of a "great park . . . devoid of misshapen monuments and other customary signs of earthly death, but filled with towering trees, sweeping lawns, splashing fountains, singing birds, beautiful statuary, cheerful flowers, noble memorial architecture with interiors full of light and color, and redolent of the world's best history and romances." Sorrow and mourning were to be replaced by frolicking schoolchildren and strolling lovers. The cemetery's nondenominational chapels -- modeled on churches in Scotland and England -- have hosted 70,000 weddings, and its eclectic artwork, a collection that manages to accommodate "the world's largest black opal," "the world's largest religious painting" and a giant stone head from Easter Island -- once made it Southern California's largest tourist attraction. But Forest Lawn also zealously guards the privacy of those buried there. Staffers do not reveal the grave locations of celebrities, and those taking photos, making too much noise or leading tours of famous graves are quickly ushered off the property. "It's not an amusement park," said William Martin, the cemetery's communications director. "They protect celebrities like the Dead Sea Scrolls," said Scott Michaels, the owner of Dearly Departed Tours, which escorts tourists to famous L.A. death sites. Michaels does not bring tours to Forest Lawn but visits often on his own to see the final resting places of W.C. Fields, Lon Chaney and Chico Marx among others. He said he had been thrown out half a dozen times. "The Great Mausoleum where he is going is like the Holy Grail of grave hunters. It's the most difficult to navigate. The rooms are like mazes, almost like an Escher drawing. There are cameras all throughout it, and if you are just wandering about, they will find you and kick you out," he said. Glendale authorities met with cemetery officials Tuesday afternoon and said street closings were likely, but they did not anticipate crowd control issues or other major problems despite Jackson's global fame and legions of fans. "I expect a minimal intrusion on the city and on our police services," said Mayor Pro-Tem Frank Quintero. "All we need to do is provide police services for traffic control. That's it." Sgt. Tom Lorenz of the Glendale Police Department said the funeral was on private property and not open to the public. Glendale officials plan to strongly discourage anyone not invited to the funeral from trying to attend, he said. "We believe we will be able to manage this event and provide the family with a peaceful service," Lorenz said. The family will bear the cost of additional police patrols, he said. Rest in Peace, Michael.. By the way, tomorrow night i be meeting up my colleagues cum friends, for a farewell dinner.. Another friend leaving the company.. SIGH! And why am i still around leh ? I need to move on le lah... Don't you agree ?

Twitter, Facebook and Google hit by cyber attacks

By the way, this was what happened on Thursday... I was on Twitter halfway, then it forced me to sign out... After which i found out, this was happening ! Twitter, Facebook and Google hit by cyber attacks SAN FRANCISCO - Cyber attacks hammered Twitter, Facebook, and Google on Thursday, disrupting the hip micro-blogging service and causing stumbles at the hot social-networking site while Google fended off assaults. Twitter was down for more than an hour early in the morning, before the eponymous California firm got it back online. "The continuing denial of service attack is being mitigated, although there is still degraded service for some folks while we recover completely," Twitter co-founder Biz Stone said in an official company blog. "Twitter has been working closely with other companies and services affected by what appears to be a single, massively coordinated attack. As to the motivation behind this event, we prefer not to speculate." By late afternoon, Twitter said that service was improving but was still sporadic, with some people "unable to post or follow from the website." Facebook was "degraded" by an early-morning distributed-denial-of-service (DDoS) attack on the Palo Alto, California-based Internet star's website, said spokeswoman Brandee Barker. "No user data was at risk and we have restored full access to the site for most users," Barker said. "We're continuing to monitor the situation." Twitter and Facebook have teamed with US Internet powerhouse Google to investigate the attacks. Cyber attacks were launched on Google websites, but the firm deflected the assaults. "Google systems prevented substantive impact to our services," said company spokesman Nate Tyler. "We are aware that a handful of non-Google sites were impacted by a DOS attack this morning, and are in contact with some affected companies to help investigate this attack." Hackers evidently employed classic DDoS attacks in which legions of zombie computers, machines infected with viruses, are commanded to simultaneously visit a website. Such a massive onslaught of demand can overwhelm website computer servers, slowing service or knocking it offline. "Ten years ago, we saw the first DDoS attacks take down some of the world's largest websites," said Cisco chief security researcher Patrick Peterson. "The irony here is that botnets, infected criminally-controlled consumer PCs, are the problem. Many of today's tweetless are part of the attack if their PC has been infected due to poor security." A DDoS attack hit Twitter about 6:00 am local time (1200 GMT) and caused the service to go offline temporarily. Access to the website continued to be slow, with some aspiring users getting messages telling them that connections had "timed out" because Twitter computers were taking too long to respond. The attack was the lead topic of conversation at Twitter, once users were able to reconnect. Twitter user Benjamin Hobbs fired off a message saying he "wishes the denial-of-service idiots would get a life and leave Twitter alone." Late in the evening, users were still posting comments in droves about the attack, using the tag #whentwitterwasdown, although many said they simply did not notice. An everyday chatting tool for many, Twitter has also become a weapon for dissidents to circumvent censorship in places where freedom of speech is suppressed. Independent information about deadly riots in China's remote northwest filtered out on Twitter, YouTube and other Internet forums in July, frustrating government efforts to control the news. Similar to the phenomenon seen a month earlier during Iran's political turmoil, pictures, videos and updates from Urumqi poured onto social networking and image sharing websites like Twitter, YouTube and Flickr. In many cases, items were reposted by other Internet users on sites outside China to preserve the content, while Twitter helped link people around the globe to images Chinese authorities did not want seen. Cyber-sympathisers from around the world joined forces through Twitter in June to help Iranian protesters dodge censorship, get out news of violent clashes and avoid real-world capture following Iran's disputed election that returned hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to power. Cyber attacks on Web pages of Iranian opposition figures have continued in the aftermath of the controversial presidential election. - AFP/rs *Tweet Tweet* =P
