Bidders from around the world bought up Michael Jackson memorabilia worth nearly $1 million at an auction on the anniversary of his death, including $190,000 for the Swarovski-crystal-studded glove he wore on his 1984 Victory Tour.

The estate of Michael Jackson has landed the late King of Pop the biggest recording deal in history: a $200 million guaranteed contract with Sony Music Entertainment for 10 projects over seven years, according to a person familiar with the deal.

LA City officials have defended covering a $3.2 million bill for Michael Jackson’s memorial by saying it brought a $4 million boost to downtown businesses.

However, it’s looking like that number has been pulled from thin air.

"Michael Jackson's This Is It," a film about the King of Pop's final rehearsals before his death, will be released on DVD on Jan. 26, 2010.

"Michael Jackson's This Is It" comes too late in the year to be considered for a documentary Oscar, but the film about the late King of Pop's preparations for a series of comeback concerts could qualify for other Hollywood honors, including the Academy Award for best picture.

hi, i have an "easy" assignment due today and for the past several days i have been completely unable to run these questions without errors,

one is asking to create a function drop-units to take an integer of 10 or greater and produce a new integer by dropping units.
ex. drop-units 148 should produce 140
drop-units 234 should produce 230
drop-units 300 should produce 300

i have no idea where to even start any help would be greatly appreciated.

Since Michael Jackson’s death, merchandising contracts and a film deal have brought in about $100 million.

Not only has Jermaine struck a deal to release a recording of “Smile,” the song he performed at Michael Jackson’s July 7 public memorial, but now there’s a series of tribute concerts he’s planning.

Two shirts memorialize his passing, but one gets the date of his death wrong. The other has no collar tag.
