Last week, Michael Jackson, "The
King of Pop," died after suffering
cardiac arrest. He was 50, and
preparing start a series of
comeback concerts.

Jackson's musical
accomplishments were many,
including the hits "Bad," "Billie
Jean," "Thriller" and "Shake Your
Body (Down to the Ground)." His
1982 album "Thriller" is the
best-selling album of all time.

He collaborated with Paul
McCartney, Quincey Jones, and
his sister, Janet Jackson.

He invented the moonwalk.

And while his behavior later in life
was bizarre, we prefer to focus
on the positives, like Jackson's
music, and his charity work.

In one instance, the two
overlapped. Jackson co-wrote the
charity single "We Are the
World," which was released
worldwide to aid the poor in
Africa and the United States.

Tell us who co-wrote the song for
a chance to win an audio book.

'Twilight' author Meyer likened to J.K. Rowling

Tucson, Arizona | Published: 11.20.2008
"Twilight" is the brainchild of Stephenie Meyer, a 34-year-old Phoenician who has written four books in the series, set in a world in which humans, vampires, werewolves and other supernatural phenomena collide, scheme against one another and fall in love.
The first book, "Twilight," on which the new movie is based, was released in 2005. Meyer is a Mormon who was a housewife when she first became an author.
A graduate of Scottsdale's Chaparral High School and Brigham Young University, Meyer based "Twilight" on a dream and wrote the book in three months. She followed the best-seller with "New Moon" (2006), "Eclipse" (2007) and "Breaking Dawn" (2008).
Her books have sold more than 17 million copies, and Meyer has a rabid fan base that has formed clubs based on her writing, dressing like her characters and celebrating the birthday of the series protagonist Bella Swan. Time magazine has called her a new J.K. Rowling.
If the "Twilight" movie becomes a blockbuster, as expected, you can bet the other three books also will become films. Summit Entertainment, the studio producing and distributing "Twilight," has already staked out a 2010 release date for a film based on "New Moon."
