...Monterey Pop Festival. That may help explain why, for the rest of her career, this rock innovator shied away from the limelight, writing songs that others turned into hits (Stoned Soul Picnic for the 5th Dimension; And When I Die for Blood, Sweat and Tears; Stoney End for Barbra Streisand). The crowd at that landmark Monterey festival was more into high-energy rockers like Janis Joplin, for whom performing was as intoxicating as the heroin that eventually killed...
...BARBRA STREISAND Diva inks memo saying W. stole Fla. as latest talley says he won. Foot in mouth not just Euro's problem...
...leave it to Barbra Streisand to get in on the vengeful-minx glee. In a letter to Democratic representatives, Streisand lambasted George W. Bush for being a "destructive man."

He stole the presidency through family ties, arrogance and intimidation, employing Republican operatives to exercise the tactics of voter fraud by disenfranchising thousands of blacks, elderly Jews and other minorities."

...Picture Academy does not release its tabulations, even those a half-century old. So we cannot know, for example, how close the vote was two years ago between "Saving Private Ryan" and "Shakespeare in Love"; or whether the count was exactly tied in 1969 when Katharine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand were both declared winners in the Best Actress category. This smells of cronyism and corruption! By petitioning, Americans are allowed access to incriminating documents in government lockboxes. It's time we had a Freedom of Information Act ruling for Oscar ballots...
