Oliva Harrison Salutes George on Anniversary of His Passing

Chris Carter, host of the nationally syndicated Breakfast with the Beatles, received the following note from Olivia Harrison marking the anniversary of George Harrison's death.

Thank you Chris and each one of you for remembering George today. The love we feel for him grows and grows.

I think of George and a million wonderful things flood my mind and heart. And a million things in the world remind me of him, from a leaf blowing across the sky to hum of a guitar string.

God bless us all. Send your warm loving thoughts to all the people in the spiritual sky and your kind actions to the people here in the material world, especially those in need.

Love from Olivia and Dhani

Facebook is also going to remove regional networks entirely, largely because some of those networks (like China) consist of millions of users, which makes them useless from a privacy standpoint.

Shinan: Me, Morocco and Jennifer Aniston

Well, poor you! You weren't aggressive enough to just say hello Jen...you have a beautiful hair! Why the 'ell chasing her and not knowing her in person! You are scared--I guess, you have no confidencein yourself I understand, or, you were not so very good looking enough to face Jen and gorgeous Salma Hayek? Paltrow is okay having kids and married but I still like her as an actress. So, what’s the hold up, eh?
Ha ha ha how funny! Jen was playing her hair. I guess she has nothing to play with and at 40, she still looks pretty and beautiful but that somber look! However, hey, you don't know what fate waits you, Jen...10 more years Jen! Ha ha!
