    <br />I can't help but wonder about what this huge news of Whitney's death is masking about other events going on in the world.  CNN talked about nothing but Whitney last night and today most likely.<br /><br />Meanwhile, there are protests in Greece, a country that could very well go bankrupt.<br /><br />Iran is on the verge of making a huge nuclear progress announcement, and I've been reading that Israel was planning to (or did?) attack Iran last night, around the same time Whitney's death was announced to the world.  I also read yesterday that over 30 million people in Iran lost access to foreign email services like Gmail, yahoo and hotmail.<br /><br />It would seem that Whitney's death is a very 'convenient' distraction to what's happening in other parts of the world.<br /><br />You always have to question what you're not hearing about when the media intensely focuses on one huge story.<br />
    Andrea you are right on darling,the media wants us to focus on Whitney,while other very serious things are going on.You make a very good point,and i agree,this is what the medias job is,distract the public with Whitney,Josha Powell,and any other interesting story they can come up with.At the same time,they aint saying nothing about the serious issues that's going on,u are so right,how convenient.Btw,my name is Andrea too,lol.

    <br />Michael Jackson “gone" before BET Awards, Amy Winehouse “gone" before VMA Awards, Whitney Houston “gone" before The Grammy Awards  :shock:  Nothing is coincidence.<br />
    <br /><br />got to admit those are some interesting timings of events.<br />
    <br /><br />Death cares not for coincidences nor numerology - only that he does his job right at God's beckoning, not any human's schedule.<br />Never mess with God and HIS plans.<br />
    <br /><br />What are you talking about?  I'm only stating the facts here which has nothing to do with numerology.  Plus, I am not of the belief that every death is God's plan.  Satan's schedule  is just as busy.<br />
    I totally agree.Some people believe that when someone is murdered,that is was Gods plan.I don't see it that way,either.Satan is very busy,he knows he only has a short time left.

    <br /><br />[size=10pt]I apologise because I called you paranoid, I did a mistake and I know that it was too much.Please accept my apologise but when I saw that you wrote that she may be an illuminaty sacrifice  I lost it,because I tougtht at her daughter if she ever saw that  :( .As regarding the Illuminati I decided to respect your decision,even if I don't believe in this myth .PEACE  /white flag/ [/size]<br />
    Apology accepted Applehead no hard feelings.It is just my opinion that her death might not be accidental or natural.I respect your opinion that you don't believe in this myth.My heart goes out to little Bobbie she lost her mother and that is very sad.I am sorry if i offended you by my post,it was just me stating my opinion.<br />
    <br /><br />[size=10pt]Thank you very much  :) bearhug  !!!!!![/size]

    <br /><br />Well hello Andrea!  Like MJonmind had said on a previous page, there is always something going on in the world that we regularly don't hear about.  I can't help but feel though, that Whitney's death was planned by...? The timing is very suspicious and the events surrounding her death even more so.  I don't know, it's just so tragic and shouldn't have happened.  But it's important to remain ever vigilant as to what else is going on elsewhere, when our attention is being diverted.  Perhaps her death was entirely accidental but I personally feel that's not the case.

    [size=12pt]Whitney Houston Few Pills Recovered at Death Scene[/size]<br /><br />http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/12/whitney-houston-presciption-pills-midol-amoxicillin-ibuprofen/<br /><br />Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... [size=12pt]multiple[/size] medicine bottles were found in the Beverly Hills hotel room where Whitney Houston died ... but we're told there were NOT a lot of pills at the scene.<br /><br />Among the pills ... ibuprofen (painkiller), Xanax (anti-depressant), Midol (for menstrual cramps), amoxicillin (for treating bacterial infections) ... and more.<br /><br />We're told the amoxicillin was prescribed recently because Whitney had been suffering from a sore throat.<br /><br />We're told some of the pills were old ... some issued in 2011 ... but some of the bottles were from 2012. We're told the bottles that were recovered at the scene did not contain a lot of pills.<br /><br />Sources tell us ... some of the prescriptions were filled at the infamous [size=12pt]Mickey Fine pharmacy [/size]in Beverly Hills ... where [size=12pt]Michael Jackson[/size] had numerous prescriptions filled for Demerol and other drugs.<br /><br />Law enforcement sources tell us ... it's possible Whitney suffered a heart attack caused by an adverse reaction to her medication, but it is simply too early to make an official call on the cause of death.<br /><br />We're told the L.A. Coroner's Office has removed the hold on Whitney's body ... which means her family can now have Whitney transported back to Atlanta, where the singer will be laid to rest. <br /><br /><br /><br />OK.<br />SO . . . . Were they [size=12pt]Few[/size] or  [size=12pt]multiple[/size]??

    TMZ seems to be pulling up a lot of weird parallels between Whitney and Michael.  The Mickey Fine Pharmacy (wasn't it shut down?) like Sim posted above, plus this article:<br /><br />http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/13/whitney-houston-beverly-hills-doctors-video/<br /><br />Showing videos Whitney visiting medical offices days before her death (like MJ) and the bottom video, the still shows the camera lights on her with her hand raised, which reminds me very much of the 'last video' TMZ got of Michael, where he is splashed in white light with his hand raised. It's all just too weird.

    <br />Whitney Houston Few Pills Recovered at Death Scene<br />
    <br /><br />Harvey is playing the "we give it a different meaning" piano full steam again.<br /><br />"Recovered"? Lost and found?<br /><br />Or was it "Discovered"?<br /><br />Or Re-covered - "Found and covered again"?<br /><br /><br /><br />Could we please return from "Molto Con Fuoco" to "Andante Grazioso"? Thanks, Harvey.<br /><br /><br /><br />The holistic family doctor and the "Mickey is fine" pharmacy.<br />So DEA was at the pharmacy last week before Whitney passed?<br />They discovered prescriptions for Whitney as well, then?<br />Or was it after her passing that they connected some dots?<br /><br />This "fell asleep" - "got drugs" - "could not sleep" - "was frightened" - "anti-depressant / anti-anxiety" - "acted weird" - "put under" - "bankrupt" - circus is not ending.<br />Never surrender  /white flag/

    [size=12pt]Whitney Houston Body Moved From Coroner's Office<br /><br />VIDEO : [/size]http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/13/whitney-houston-body-van-coroner-morgue/#.Tzla44FWp3A<br /><br />Whitney Houston's body has been removed from the L.A. County Morgue in a Coroner's van and is currently en route to an L.A. funeral home ... TMZ has learned.<br /><br />We're told Whitney's family will now take possession of the body and it will be flown back East by private jet in the next few hours.<br /><br />The Coroner would not comment on transportation details, but we've confirmed the body is in the van seen in the video.<br /><br />The body should be arriving at the airport by noon Pacific time.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />[size=12pt]Whitney Houston Family Told She Died from Rx NOT Drowning[/size]<br />http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/13/whitney-houston-cause-of-death-prescription-drugs-drowning-atlanta/#.TzldFIFWp3A<br /><br />Whitney Houston's family was told by L.A. County Coroner officials ... the singer did not die from drowning, but rather from what appears to be a combination of Xanax and other prescription drugs mixed with alcohol ... this according to family sources.<br /><br />We're told Coroner's officials informed the family there was not enough water in Whitney's lungs to lead to the conclusion that she drowned.<br /><br />Our sources say the family was told Whitney may well have died before her head became submerged.<br /><br />And family sources tell us ... it was actually Whitney's aunt, Mary Jones, who discovered Whitney's body in the bathtub. Mary had laid out Whitney's dress for the evening on the bed and then left for about a half hour. When Whitney didn't come out of the bathroom, Mary entered, pulled Whitney out of the tub and began administering CPR.<br /><br />And we're told ... Whitney's mom has arranged to have the singer's body flown back to Atlanta, as early as tomorrow. The family was told the Coroner has no problem releasing the body because there is no evidence of foul play --  and unless cops put a hold on the body, it can be flown back East.<br />

    [size=12pt]Celine Dion Drugs Killed Whitney Houston[/size]<br />http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/13/whitney-houston-dead-drugs-celine-dion/#.Tzlbq4FWp3A<br /><br />Celine Dion isn't waiting for the coroner to give an official cause of death for Whitney Houston because she apparently knows what killed her ... drugs. <br /><br />Speaking to "Good Morning America" today via phone, Dion wasted no time pinning Houston's untimely passing on drug abuse. She told Robin Roberts, "Whitney has been an amazing inspiration for me ... It's just really unfortunate that drugs, bad people or bad influence took over. It took over her dreams. It took over her love and motherhood."<br /><br />Dion immediately linked Houston's death with other famous people who died from drugs. She went on to say, [size=12pt]"When you think about Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe and Michael Jackson and Amy Winehouse, to get into drugs like that[/size], for whatever reason. Is it because of the stress and bad influence? What happens when you have everything?"<br /><br />A cause of death has not yet been determined, but sources close to Houston's family tell TMZ the coroner has told them she died from Xanax and other prescription drugs mixed with alcohol.

    Most of the copy-and-paste journalists were not even getting the right hotel name out of their fingers - not to mention out of their mouth.<br /><br />Cuckoo! <br /><br />It was Beverly Hilton Hotel, not Beverly Hills Hotel! <br /><br />Scenes+Beverly+Hilton+hotel+singer+Whitney+JnO0oTul5eml.jpg<br /><br />"Burn all tabloids" was circumscribing the situation in a too limited perception, I'm afraid. <br /><br />Nonsense blubbering scribblers have become a plague all over the information channels and so-said "serious" media are not exempt. Sigh.<br /><br />

    <br />Sony/ATV is NOT "THE" only publisher, nor the largest, I think the second though.  YET, they hold publishing rights to the largest artists.<br />As in ones who have "died".  Things that make you go hummmm<br />"Michael Jackson"<br />Whitney Houston<br />John Lennon (The Beatles anyhow)<br />Elvis Presley<br />James Brown<br />Jimi Hendrix<br />James Morrison<br />
    This cant be a coincedence fordtocarr,this is very shady to say the least.All of those celebs died very mysteriously.Well i dont know whether theyre all dead,but this makes u wonder what the hell is going on.<br />
    <br /><br />Seems to me, that these performers 'WE'RE" top performers at one time. The music that SONY will make off them with every song played is...ching ching.....<br /><br />What seems like it consistent, is that these performers we're all trying to make come backs, but have been slow on the comebacks. With these artists comes royalties on the songs Sont already has. <br /><br />I feel if the artist retires on his own & isn't plagued by negative press, Sony will continue to make money, off the artists prevous music, because he left on a positive note.<br /><br />When the artists gets bad "press", added in the artists using drugs, some fans are turned off by that, & could deter from buying again if the artist tries to make a come back & is still battling negative "press".<br /><br />I'm going to give you a GREAT EXAMPLE.....    <br /><br />Brett Favre<br /><br />I"m from Wisconsin, bout 30 miles from Green Bay. When Brett retired as a Green Bay Packer, fans rushed out to buy his jersey, his books, magazines, etc....He retired as a Packer......so we thought.......then he decides to come out and say he wants to play football, but plays mind games with his fans & NFL league as a whole. He comes out of retirement. Plays for the Jets......( mind you, his #4 wasn't a big hit on NFL gear, etc) then he decides to he's going to play for the Vikings. (same #4) with now the fans from not only Greenbay feeling dejected, now he's got Jet fans feeling betrayed, & Viking fans feeling the same way.  <br /><br />When Brett retired as a Packer, I bought his retirement books, newspapers, etc......everyone felt great he was retiring as a Green Bay Packer.....money is rolling in because he started with Green Bay, he retired a Packer......well......<br /><br />The companies that make thier most money off a artist/athelete is when they come into the business. They are "fresh", not enough of the private struggles don't come in till later in their career.<br /><br />So you have Brett, who "retired", as a Packer, then he decides to come back, but now the true colors of Brett have surfaced, (arrogant, selfish, drug addiction (which came out when he was still playing for Green Bay, but he was young enough to redeem himself) & then WANTS  to play for another team in our same division?<br /><br />Packer Fans we're buying his #4 in record sales, when Brett retired as a Green Bay Packer. He left a postive words of encouragement upon leaving the fans.<br /><br />When he decided to "un-retire", & then his  arrogance of his selfishness surfaced, (which he kept masked pretty damn good in Green Bay) the sales of #4 just plummetted. <br /><br />I won't buy anything of Brett Favre's of any #4 again. (Green Bay, Jets, or Vikings)<br /><br />To me, Brett isn't "marketable" anymore in his younger Green Bay image. <br /><br />NFL apparrel doesn't product his numbers like they did before, they cut their losses, & continuing to keep up the image of his younger days, just makes him look stupid. <br /><br />So when an athlete/artist is in the prime of stages, the (record labels/NFL, ) have to keep that image going as long as they continue to make money. <br /><br />Once that athlete/artist retires, then wants to make a come back, & their imaged has been tarnished by use of drugs, bad press. or just bad choices, they might have a chance.<br /><br />But in the final stages of making the record labels/NFL apparrel money, the fans have to have a POSITIVE image of their athlete/artists LEAVING the industry. So welcoming them back can be POSITIVE. <br /><br />If during the "off time" the athelete/artists is plagued with drugs, police, selfishness, arrogance, etc....the $$$$ that can be made off that person has just vanished.<br /><br />By looking at the list of names on the SONY list of "unexpected disappearances/death" are artists that we're in the prime with the songs that SONY already owns. Any new songs, that are made after a "come back" won't bring them the royalties that we're there before the artists had his/her personal woes.<br /><br />So athletes/artists can become .....disposable!<br /><br /><br />

So welcoming them back can be POSITIVE. <br /><br />If during the "off time" the athelete/artists is plagued with drugs, police, selfishness, arrogance, etc....the $$$$ that can be made off that person has just vanished.<br /><br />By looking at the list of names on the SONY list of "unexpected disappearances/death" are artists that we're in the prime with the songs that SONY already owns. Any new songs, that are made after a "come back" won't bring them the royalties that we're there before the artists had his/her personal woes.<br /><br />So athletes/artists can become .....disposable!<br /><br /><br /><br />
    <br /><br />Very interesting.  I can't help my mind from thinking that it's quite ironic.  In the long run, we know Michael is alive, and scooping up the chaching from royalties on these other dead artists, but it does again make one wonder about Sony or "the catalog" being part of the reasons for the hoax.

    <br />Whitney Houston Few Pills Recovered at Death Scene<br />
    <br /><br />Harvey is playing the "we give it a different meaning" piano full steam again.<br /><br />"Recovered"? Lost and found?<br /><br />Or was it "Discovered"?<br /><br />Or Re-covered - "Found and covered again"?<br /><br /><br /><br />Could we please return from "Molto Con Fuoco" to "Andante Grazioso"? Thanks, Harvey.<br /><br />
    <br /><br />Yeah, and add to that a little "Ritardando"  at the end because right now I don't understand anything at all!!!!<br /><br />
