Jaggar for baby no. 8

It has been revealed that the 64 year old singer Mick Jagger is so desperate to have a baby with long term girlfriend L’Wren Scott, he has totally changed his diet. Despite the fact he already has 7 children from 4 different relationships – the oldest of which is 37 years old.

At what point do you stop and decide you are too old? I mean if Jagger is successful in his bid to become more fertile by drinking rare berry juice from the Himalayas; then by the time the kid is 15 the man will be almost 80. Not exactly the cool hands on Dad you would want as a teenager is it?

Well, I suppose it does sound like he means business. Not only has he incorporated large quantities of avocados into his diet, he drinks a glass of goji berry juice every day. The juice is nicknamed “Fruit Viagra”; and, well, I guess Mick really hopes it works at £30 per litre.

Rolling Stone CDs

No, no…don’t think the Rolling Stones are back in business. It’s about a series of music compilations that will bear the Rolling Stone name, with the agreement of the respective music magazine. Rolling stone magazine agreed to lend its name to various song selections, both new and old. The CDs will be sold along with copies of the magazine.

It’s not that the magazine doesn’t have enough publicity already or that people wouldn’t buy it otherwise, but with the vast information provided on the internet and with the ever-growing number of people world wide that would rather read about it on the net rather than buying a magazine, it’s getting more and more difficult to sell palpable press releases.

Bono receives Liberty Medal in Philly

Accepting the Liberty Medal for his humanitarian work in Africa, Bono exhorted Americans to keep working to solve the world’s problems and spoke of those who are without freedom.

“When you are trapped by poverty, you are not free. When trade laws prevent you from selling the food you grew, you are not free,” the Irish rocker and activist said Thursday night as he stood steps away from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell.

“When you are a monk in Burma this very week, barred from entering a temple because of your gospel of peace … well, then none of us are truly free,” he said.

Bono and the organization he co-founded, Debt AIDS Trade Africa, received the award from former Liberty Medal recipient President George H.W. Bush at the National Constitution Center.

The award comes with a $100,000 prize, which Bono said will be donated to the organization. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former finance minister of Nigeria who sits on the group’s policy advisory board, accepted the award for the Washington-based group.

Bono, front man for the band U2, co-founded DATA in 2002 to work with religious groups on global disease and hunger issues.

In 2005, U2 was a headliner for the Live 8 concerts held to raise awareness about African poverty and pressure world leaders to cancel debt for the poorest African nations.

Calling America “my country,” Bono said he’s a fan of the United States despite its problems because of its contributions to the world.

“Your America is where Neil Armstrong takes a walk on the moon,” Bono said. “Your America gave Europe the Marshall Plan. Your America gave the world the Peace Corps.

The medal was first awarded in 1989, and six recipients have subsequently won the Nobel Peace Prize.
