Jackson beats Beatles as top music icon
Surprises never cease to happen, especially when it comes to surveys and polls. Pop king Michael Jackson has been named the top global music icon of the past 50 years in a poll conducted by CNN.
Pop king Michael Jackson has been named the top global music icon of the past 50 years in a poll conducted by CNN.
"Almost 100,000 of you voted to tell us that the self-styled king of pop, who died suddenly in June 2009, is the musician you rate above all others," the news magazine said.
British pop group The Beatles, late Canto pop sensation Leslie Cheung, rock 'n' roller Elvis Presley and Reggae godfather Bob Marley also made to the top five.
No female artists made the list which had India's Asha Bhosle in the long list of 20, although US pop queen Madonna came in at number six, narrowly missing a place.
Last month CNN's arts and culture program, Icon, asked viewers to vote for their top five most iconic musicians of all time.

winning n losing - Mind n Heart
Love isn’t winning someone but losing yourself to someone. When you are LOVED by someone it is not due to the excellence of your mind but due to the purity of your heart...

USPTO on Facebook
USPTO Launches Page on Facebook
Agency’s profile will deliver the latest news, photos and videos from the USPTO
Washington – The Department of Commerce’s United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) today launched its official page on Facebook. Intended to engage the public and the intellectual property community directly and provide real-time information, the USPTO’s page on Facebook will offer a series of regular updates from the Agency on a range of issues, and gives Facebook users the chance to comment on, discuss, and offer feedback to the USPTO about announcements and initiatives. The page can be found at www.facebook.com/uspto.gov.
“Technology has profoundly impacted the way we all consume information and communicate with one another,” said Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO David Kappos. “I’m confident our Facebook presence will complement the USPTO Web site as a means of communicating and connecting with the public and our stakeholders in the intellectual property community. With more than 400 million people on Facebook, we knew it was an important place for us to be.”
The USPTO’s page on Facebook will not replace the Agency’s Web site (www.uspto.gov) as the official source of USPTO information. Rather, the Facebook page will provide a new channel for the public to connect with the USPTO.
In addition to communicating directly with the USPTO, Facebook users can expect to see an array of content and information, including press releases, posts from Director Kappos’ “Director’s Forum” blog, event information, photos and video.
