...June 25, Michael Jackson's longtime collaborator Kenny Ortega had little time to comprehend his friend's death, let alone grieve over it. Hollywood's hottest choreographer-director went from preparing Jackson's 50-date London concert series to setting the paces of the pop icon's star-studded memorial to directing the behind-the-scenes film of Jackson's rehearsals for the ill-fated tour.

...chosen to be defense minister is a rising star of the CSU, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg. Unlike Westerwelle, who comes to the Foreign Ministry little known outside Germany and with clunky English, zu Guttenberg is already a familiar, even reassuring, figure in Washington.
