Ray Manzarek, Founding Member of The Doors, Dead at 74

Ray Manzarek

Ray Manzarek, founding member and keyboardist of the iconic '60s rock band The Doors, has died in Germany after a long battle with bile-duct cancer. He was 74. The Doors' official Facebook page confirmed the news.

Manzarek wasn't the best-known member of the band. That would be frontman and singer Jim Morrison, who died mysteriously in 1971 of what appeared to be a drug overdose. But Manzarek's virtuoso keyboard skills were essential in creating the sound of The Doors, especially that slithering electric harpsichord riff that provides the backbone to their most famous song "Light My Fire." He also contributed to "Break On Through to the Other Side," "Hello, I Love You," "L.A. Woman," and "The End," which opens Apocalypse Now.

Sun faces first civil claim as model sues over ‘police bribes’

A model is suing the Sun and Scotland Yard in the first civil claim linked to alleged corrupt payments to police officers and public officials.

Sarah Hannon is claiming damages at the high court for misuse of private information by the Metropolitan police and the Rupert Murdoch-owned tabloid.

She appeared in a Sun story in June 2010 that claimed her then-boyfriend was arrested after allegedly engaging in a sex act with another woman on a flight from Heathrow to Bangalore.

The Chinese are interested in airports, harbours and railways. The Russians are determined to infiltrate the energy market. The Qataris have made clear they want to invest in property.

Three years to the month after becoming the first eurozone country to be bailed out by the European Union (EU), European Central Bank (ECB) and International Monetary Fund (IMF), Greece has finally got its long-delayed privatisation campaign off the ground, and the programme has turned the debt-choked country into a battleground for nations seeking access to the EU trading bloc.

HOW TO SELL YOUR SOUL TO THE DEVIL


soul_for_satan

You can have power, wealth, an attractive mate and virtually anything else you ever dreamed of – by selling your soul to Satan! But how?

You must know what you’re doing when you make the deal or Satan will cheat you blind. That’s the word from Dr. Rex Touth, expert on satanic rituals and author of How to Negotiate Unholy Contracts.

Dr. Touth cites cases dating all the way back to the 16th century in which humans have agreed to spend eternity in Hell when they die in exchange for earthly pleasures while they’re alive.
