Excerpt: Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer, and philanthropist. Referred to as the King of Pop, he is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time, as well as one of the most influential. His contribution to music, dance and fashion, along with a much-publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene when he was a child, alongside his brothers as a member of The Jackson 5. He began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group and released some of the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Thriller (1982), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991), HIStory (1995) and Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix (1997). In the early 1980s, Jackson became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to have a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of music videos for his songs such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and "Thriller"credited for transforming the music video into an art form and a promotional toolhelped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made him an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinct...http://booksllc.net/?id=14995351 ... Read more

She faced criticism for her limited vocal range, and for being yet another member of the Jackson family to become a recording artist. Beginning with her third studio album Control (1986), she began a long-term collaboration with record producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Her music with Jam and Lewis incorporated elements of rhythm and blues, disco, funk, and rap with sample loop, triplet swing and industrial beats, which led to crossover appeal in popular music.

Extrait : Joseph Eugene Stiglitz est un économiste américain né le 9 février 1943 qui reçut le prix de la Banque de Suède en sciences économiques en mémoire d'Alfred Nobel en 2001 (pour un travail commun avec George Akerlof et Michael Spence). Il est un des fondateurs et un des représentants les plus connus du « nouveau keynésianisme ». Il a acquis sa notoriété populaire à la suite de ses violentes critiques envers le FMI et la Banque mondiale, émises peu après son départ de la Banque mondiale en 2000, alors qu'il y était économiste en chef. Parmi les recherches les plus connues de Stiglitz figure la théorie du screening, qui vise à obtenir de l'information privée de la part d'un agent économique : cette théorie, avec les lemons d'Akerlof et l'effet signal de Spence, est à la base de l'économie de l'information et du nouveau keynésianisme. Il s'intéresse aussi à l'économie du développement. Stiglitz est né en 1943 à Gary, Indiana (États-Unis), dans une famille juive. Ses parents étaient Charlotte et Nathaniel Stiglitz. De 1960 à 1963, il étudia à Amherst College. Sa quatrième année d'université se déroula au MIT, où il entreprit ses travaux de recherche. De 1965 à 1966, il continua ses recherches à Chicago avec Hirofumi Uzawa. Il décroche son titre de docteur en 1967 (24 ans) au MIT de Boston et une bourse Fulbright de recherche à Cambridge.

Excerpt: Janet Jackson is the self-titled debut album by American recording artist Janet Jackson, released in 1982 by A&M Records. Jackson's career as a recording artist was established by her father and manager Joseph Jackson, who arranged her recording contract with A&M Records. Jackson, at the time, was not committed to a career in music and did not contribute much effort to the project. The album's musical content contains bubblegum pop mixed with elements of disco and funk. Songwriters Angela Winbush and René Moore contributed to much of the album's lyrics. Moore and Winbush share production credits with and Foster Sylvers, Jerry Weaver, and Bobby Watson. Janet Jackson debuted at number six on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and its single "Young Love" peaked at number six on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Prior to her recording contract with A&M Records, Janet Jackson was best known as a television actress; most notable for her role as Penny on the series Good Times and Charlene on Diffrent Strokes. Janet didn't want any of her family members to participate in the making of the album. She wanted it to be her own project, judged by its own merits.

On the cover photo Janet is photographed in the swimming pool of the Jackson family's home. ...http://booksllc.net/?id=1445395 ... Read more
