Conrad Murray: "Joe Jackson Chemically Castrated Michael"

Joe Jackson passed in June at the age of 89. Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson's former personal doctor maintains the singer went through several chemical injections at an early age due to Joe Jackson's maniacal drive for success in entertainment. In all of this I think the message we should take away is that no child should be abused. Forget where you stand on the whole debacle of the Jackson family, even if you don't necessarily care about them, I think it's still important to realize where they stand in significance to history and their ascendance to fame and how it all came about. While the success was there the happiness wasn't and we should all remember to value our mental health whenever we are working towards our goals.

Aston Martin made a 430-hp Micro-car: It's both adorable and terrifying.

The Cygnet has a 4.7 Liter V-8 capable of producing 430-hp and also has 361 lb-ft of torque to go along with a limited slip differential. The idea behind the car was apparently to create a city car that could also give you a heart-attack on a track. I have to stay the the intention aligns with the finished product as the Cygnet has very similar features to other micro-cars like the Scion iQ. Aston Martin claims it can accelerate to 60-mph in 4.2 seconds. That's as fast as a Corvette C6. It also has a phenomenal top speed of 170-mph. However, I have to wonder if the car can safely handle that speed for a very long time considering how short the wheelbase is.
