...Diva of all Divas, Diana Ross returns to the road this summer with the Supremes. Well, not exactly. She joins not the original Supremes, but the ones that joined after Ross left for her solo career. Nevertheless, the tour promises big glam and big style-not to mention big ticket prices, with the best seats going for $250. Meanwhile, this summer may be one of your last chances to catch Diva royal Tina Turner in full-fledged concert: she says that the upcoming "Twenty Four Seven" tour will be her last. But don't fret: Turner and her bionic legs...

Nevertheless, the colony held on, and in 930 Iceland's ruling families founded a general assembly, known as the Althing, at which representatives of the entire population met annually to discuss matters of importance and settle legal disputes. The institution is still in operation today, more than a thousand years later...
...wasn't particularly big, but I still couldn't imagine pulling off being Principal for a Day with this pimple on my chin. No one is going to accept detention from Principal Zit. Nevertheless, I had already agreed to be part of this program to raise awareness about public schools, so I set off to accomplish the two things I've wanted to do since I was 15: find out what teachers talk about in the faculty lounge and commandeer the p.a. system. I was going to use my light-rock deejay voice and keep repeating that principal...
