What the MC stands for
In 1969 Mick Jagger, who was a huge fan of M.C. Escher, wrote him a lengthy letter complimenting him on his excellent talent. He went on and on about how much he admired his work and how honored he would be if Escher would design the sleeve of the next Stones album. He went as far as to suggest a horizontal drawing so that they could have it as a long sleeve.
Escher’s reply was remarkably shorter than Mick’s letter. He sent a letter to Peter Swales at the Rolling Stones’ office saying:
Please tell mr. Jagger I am not Maurits to him, but very sincerely,
M.C. Escher (More inside the comments)

There have been no reported injuries and media reports said the quake was felt as far south as San Diego and as far east as Las Vegas. Twitter user RFTC was visiting her doctor that very moment & twittering her experience: “I am totally serious. My Ob/Gyn was IN my vagina and an earthquake started rattling the room”.

X17, the biggest agency in the Holly¬wood paparazzi business
Between 30 and 45 paparazzi work Britney on any given night. The expensive cars they drive reflect the fact that Britney Spears—her marriages, custody battles, fights with her mom, new boyfriends, Starbucks runs, trips to the hospital—is a bigger and more lucrative story than Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton or John Lennon and Yoko Ono. History’s best-publicized celebrity meltdown has helped fuel dozens of television shows, magazines, and Internet sites, the combined value of whose Britney-related product easily exceeds $100 million a year, and helped make Britney Spears the most popular search term on Yahoo once again in 2007, as it has been for six of the past seven years.
