Jackson Doctor Trial

It's day two of Dr. Conrad Murray's trail for involentary manslaughter upon legend Michael Jackson. He has pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Yesterday saw opening statements from both sides, where the prosecution claimed that Murray had acted with 'gross negligence'. And the evidence for that seems pretty overwhelming. Dr. Murray failed to mention to the emergency service men or the doctors at the hospital that Jackson had taken Propfol as well as other items to help him sleep. If I'm honest I think the defence has a lot of work to do, who sai that Jackson was responsible for his own death.

Murray seemed to be upset when they started mentioning his relationship with the singer.

We heard a voice recording of Jackson whilst on sedatives drugs in which he was slurring his words severely. Also a picture was shown of Jackson's dead body.

Yesterday also saw the first witness to be questioned, the This Is It director and co-choreographer, Kenny Ortega who was asked about what he witnessed on the 19th June 2009, when Michael came to rehearsal in a bad way. Today sees questioning from more witnesses, so far seeing the lawyer for AEG Records who spoke of Jackson's contract for the London shows and Michael Jackson's personal assistant, Michael Amir Williams who spoke of his role for the singe rand how he met Murray.

Coverage of the trial is being shown live on Sky News.

Some of Jackson's family including his parents and sisters have been seen in court and are expected to be there everyday.

Contestant quits X Factor

  Eccentric contestant, Goldie Cheung has quit X factor after realising she is this years Jedward. To be honest I can't belive shedidn't see it sooner.
  
  Louis is the judge to have chosen her for the live shows, so will he bring back another contestant to replace her? Probably.
  
  The real question is, what was Louis thinking to put her through in the first place?

Qatar 2022 to cost £138bn!

The cost for Qatar to host the 2022 World Cup will apparently cost around £138 billion. Mainly because they're building a whole new city for  the new (and first) football stadium.


£30 billion of this is going to go on air conditioning the stadium. £107 billion will be spent on stadiums and facilities and £31 billion on transport infrastructure. All the remains will be spent on training facilities and accommodation for teams and fans.


It was never a sensible idea to give the 2022 bid to Qatar, the only good thing I can think coming out of this is that it will gain more interest in that part of the world for the sport. Apart from that it honestly seems like a stupid idea. When Qatar won the bid they didn't have a football stadium and who's ever heard of a good football team from Qatar or indeed a national team?


Personally I don't see this going down as a world cup to remember.

Reading and Leeds

After watching Reading and Leeds highlights on BBC I was so gutted I couldn't be there. Muse looked incredible and I definately have to go see them live at some point. My Chemical Romance were also good.

30 Seconds To Mars were amazing and I've realsied what an amazing band they are. I've always liked them, but seeing them at Reading made me think "wow these guys are good". Despite being on tour for almost two years, frontman Jared Leto still managed to sound ace.
