*DEAD
DJ AM found dead in NYC apartment

TMZ had reported that Adam Goldstein aka DJ Am was found dead this afternoon in New York City.
He was apparently found in his apartment at around 5:20 PM where drug paraphernalia was found at the scene. HE had not been seen or heard from for a few days — supposedly, one of his friends went to check on him, but got no response after knocking on his apartment door. The friend called the police, who broke down the door and then found DJ AM’s body.
Rest in peace DJ AM. Our condolences go out to his entire family and friends.

Nokia N900 Maemo!!!
August 27, 2009 by socal
Filed under Technology

Beyond that Maemo Linux OS we’ve been begging Nokia to bring to phones for the better part of a year, the N900 is, as Nokia handsets tend to be nowadays, a healthy piece of hardware. It’s got a 3.5-inch resistive WVGA screen, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, an ARM Cortex 8 processor, and 1GB 256MB of RAM, and is crammed with 32GB of internal memory with a MicroSD slot for expansion, GPS, an FM transmitter, a 5-megapixel camera, a 3.5mm jack and a gajillion-band cellular radio, including, crucially, support for T-Mobile’s 1700MHz slice of the spectrum.
Since Maemo is based on Debian Linux, the app selection should be interesting. Stock, the N900 will ship with Firefox (Fennec, I assume) and Flash support and a panel-based multitasking system, as well as tight VoIP integration and near-total video and audio codec support.
Maemo is fresh in a phone context, but it looks fantastic here—I see bits of Pre, pieces of Android and a whole lot of Nokia freshness. More than anything, I really just want to touch this thing. Try getting that excited about an N97, sometime. Nokia: Maybe not doomed! The N900 will launch “select markets”—all of which sadly seem to trade in Euros—for €500, or about $700

Ted Kennedy Dies of Brain Cancer at Age 77

It has confirmed that US Senator Edward ” Ted” Kennedy died of brain cancer shortly before midnight August 26th 2009 in Hyannisport , Massachusetts.
The man known as the “liberal lion of the Senate” had fought a more than year-long battle with brain cancer, and according to his son had lived longer with the disease than his doctors expected him to.
“We’ve lost the irreplaceable center of our family and joyous light in our lives, but the inspiration of his faith, optimism, and perseverance will live on in our hearts forever,” the Kennedy family said in a statement. “He loved this country and devoted his life to serving it.”
Sen. Edward Moore Kennedy, the youngest Kennedy brother who was left to head the family’s political dynasty after his brothers President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy were assassinated.
Kennedy championed health care reform, working wages and equal rights in his storied career. In August, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom — the nation’s highest civilian honor — by President Obama. His daughter, Kara Kennedy, accepted the award on his behalf.
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, known as Ted or Teddy, was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in May 2008 and underwent a successful brain surgery soon after that. But his health continued to deteriorate, and Kennedy suffered a seizure while attending the luncheon following President Barack Obama’s inauguration.
For Kennedy, the ascension of Obama was an important step toward realizing his goal of health care reform.
At the Democratic National Convention in August 2008, the Massachusetts Democrat promised, “I pledge to you that I will be there next January on the floor of the United States Senate when we begin the great test.”
Sen. Kennedy made good on that pledge, but ultimately lost his battle with cancer.
Kennedy was first elected to the Senate in 1962, at the age of 30, and his tenure there would span four decades.
A hardworking, well-liked politician who became the standard-bearer of his brothers’ liberal causes, his career was clouded by allegations of personal immorality and accusations that his family’s clout helped him avoid the consequences of an accident that left a young woman dead.
But for the younger members of the Kennedy clan, from his own three children to those of his brothers JFK and RFK, Ted Kennedy — once seen as the youngest and least talented in a family of glamorous overachievers — was both a surrogate father and the center of the family.
And certainly it was Ted Kennedy who bore many of the tragedies of the family — the violent deaths of four of his siblings, his son’s battle with cancer, and the death of his nephew John F. Kennedy Jr. in a plane crash.
