...means, but perhaps more contemplative - says Holley, who has coached Jackson on solo tours since 1987. In preparing for previous tours, Holley said auditions for backup singers and other performing roles would usually be held via videotape, and it wouldn't be all that uncommon for the two to speak directly only two or three times over the span of a year. But for "This Is It," the London concerts scheduled to begin in July, Jackson was much more present and available, attending auditions and eagerly talking with everyone in the crew about the larger mission behind the tour...

The world doesn't need more versions of Jar Jar Binks. But what if it were the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime? Optimus truly cares about the future of the human race, unlike the Obama Administration, which Bay represents as so prissy and antiwar it just wants the alien robots off the planet...
...hard to imagine any of these cheeky exchanges occurring in the Rose Garden or the East Room, where acoustic requirements require reporters to use microphones to speak with the President. But it was the President's choice to cross over to the other side of the White House complex Thursday, and he got a glimpse of what his press secretary and friend Robert Gibbs has to deal with almost every day. Chances are, he won't be back in that enemy territory for a long time to come...
