Jimi Hendrix Murdered?
It is being alleged in a new book that Jimi's own record manager ordered a hit on him to collect a $2 million dollar life insurance policy. The plausibility of the story is being corroborated by the doctor who was at the scene and called to Jimi's room that night, Sept. 18th, 1970. The details are credible and this is not a conspiracy theory. The thing is, the record manager who supposedly confessed was killed in a plane crash in 1973 -(after profiting A LOT from Jimi's death - A LOT!) - and will never be brought up on any kind of charges in this life... Very sad.

Killing Fields Tribunal
Former Khmer Rouge prisoners are finally getting their day in court - 30 years after the fact. Victim after victim is stepping up to share their horrific stories of pain and survival and to point their finger at one man charged with over 15,000 counts of murder and war crimes. This despicable man will probably be the last of this evil empire to undergo a tribunal as there are less than a handful of these monsters left.

Vatican dripping with money?
These couple of articles caught our eye this week.
One was about the Pope being helicoptered to his vacation at a mountaintop chalet in the Alps and the other about more sex abuse allegations, but it wasn't that we saw. It was the budget for this particular group, The Legionaries of Christ, one of many branches the Catholic Church funds, of $650 million. ZING! Okay, it's a typo. Maybe it's 65 million? Or 6? Is that a lot anyway?
Are vows of poverty, passé? They certainly don't seem to apply to this new Pope or bother him and his $500 fire-engine red Prada shoes and his helicopter and resort in the Alps. We think he'd be more at home with Posh and Becks than with a leper or a poor person.
How much money has been paid out in sexual abuse litigation settlements? A LOT! By the year 2002, the figure was 1 billion dollars. In 2007 alone, it was $615 million.
How about The Vatican Observatory? A scientifically first class fully operational Stellar Observatory complete with giant telescopes that cost a lot of money to operate.
We're just wondering why so many local catholic groups are financially strapped and why The Vatican seems to have it all.
(and did you know The Catholic Church believes in aliens now? In fact, they are our "brothers")
