And Oprah shall lead them all. The talk show and lifestyle guru tops the list of Forbes 100 Most Powerful Celebrities.
It was a year of conquest in Hollywood. The worldwide box office soared to a record $25.8 billion, buoyed by global blockbusters like Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" and Sony's "The Da Vinci Code." Madonna reclaimed her title as the mightiest force in music, thanks to her record-breaking Confessions tour, which drew over a million fans and generated $195 million in ticket sales. And golf ace Tiger Woods banked $100 million, more in a single year than any athlete in history.
Tinseltown's triumphs are reflected in this year's Celebrity 100, Forbes' annual list of the world's most powerful and best-paid celebrities. To generate the list, Forbes analyzes celebrity earnings, plus media metrics like Google hits, press mentions as compiled by Lexis/Nexis, TV and radio mentions from Factiva and the number of times an A-lister appears on the cover of 32 major consumer magazines.
Earnings estimates are for June 2006 to June 2007 and consist of dollars earned solely from entertainment-related income. Management, agent and attorney fees have not been deducted.
Barack Obamas campaign has just moved its Oprah event on Sunday from an arena in Columbia seating 18,000 to a football stadium with a capacity of more than 80,000.
Tickets, which are free, went quickly on Monday, when they were first available, and the campaign had to shut down its distribution system. Now, the campaign says, tickets arent even necessary, although it hopes people will RSVP through its Web site.
The new venue is Williams-Brice Stadium at the University of South Carolina. Doors open at 12:30 p.m., Eastern and the event starts at 2:30 p.m.

NATEPERKINS.TV: American's Poor Class Making $6.50 Per hour- Aftermath of Tornado, Colin Powell endorses Obama...
Obama Family,
Colin Powell endorses Obamahttp://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/19/colin.powell/index.html(CNN) -- Former Secretary of State Colin Powell announced Sunday that he will be voting for Sen. Barack Obama, citing the Democrat's "ability to inspire" and the "inclusive nature of his campaign." "He has both style and substance. I think he is a transformational figure," Powell said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "Obama displayed a steadiness. Showed intellectual vigor. He has a definitive way of doing business that will do us well," Powell said. Powell, a retired U.S. general and a Republican, was once seen as a possible presidential candidate himself.
Powell said he questioned Sen. John McCain's judgment in picking Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate because he doesn't think she is ready to be president. He also said he was disappointed with som e of McCain's campaign tactics, such as bringing up Obama's ties to former 1960s radical Bill Ayers. Powell served as secretary of state under President Bush from 2001 to 2005. The notion of a Powell endorsement has been rumored for several months. On August 13, Powell's office denied a report on Fox by commentator Bill Kristol that Powell had decided to publicly back Obama at the Democratic National Convention. Several sources said at the time that Powell had not made a decision about a possible endorsement.
"As always, he is holding his cards close and waiting for more information," one adviser told CNN's John King in August. Powell himself brushed off queries on any potential presidential nod but told ABC News on August 13 that he would not be going to Denver, Colorado, for the convention.
"I do not have time to waste on Bill Kristol's musings," he said. "I am not going to the convention. I have made this clear." In Febr uary, Powell told CNN's Wolf Blitzer that he was weighing an endorsement of a Democratic or independent candidate. "I am keeping my options open at the moment," Powell said. "I have voted for members of both parties in the course of my adult life. And as I said earlier, I will vote for the candidate I think can do the best job for America, whether that candidate is a Republican, a Democrat or an independent," he added.
Powell has offered praise for Obama, calling him an "exciting person on the political stage." "He has energized a lot of people in America," said Powell, who briefly weighed his own run for the White House in the mid-1990s. "He has energized a lot of people around the world. And so I think he is worth listening to and seeing what he stands for." Powell's adviser has said that "he likes and admires John McCain, and that would be a factor in anything he does if he decides to get more involved." Another source close to Powell said he has known the Republican nominee for more than three decades "and likes him and is looking for a reason to vote for him. He hasn't found it yet." The former general, who has largely steered clear of politics since leaving the Bush administration, noted that the next president will need to work to restore America's standing in the world. Powell gave the keynote address at the Republican National Convention in support of George W. Bush in 2000. "I will ultimately vote for the person I believe brings to the American people the kind of vision the American people want to see for the next four years," he said. "A vision that reaches out to the rest of the world, that starts to restore confidence in America, that starts to restore favorable ratings to America. Frankly, we've lost a lot in recent years." Powell's adviser also said at the time that the vice presidential picks for both candidates would be a major factor in his decision, both for the quality of each man's running mate and for what sort of "signal that choice sends about the character and judgment of the candidate." He also said that a Powell decision to back Obama would not be a surprise.

NATEPERKINS.TV: Andrew Young's Perspective More White Killed In Katrina's Then Black People
blip.tv/rss?category_name=The%20Mainstream%20Media;category=18;s=posts - 306k - Cached - Similar pages
Out of the blue in the Washington Post today, former US Ambassador to the UN and Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young decries America's "excessive Puritanism" and makes a plea to give the beleaguered World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz just one more chance.
One can almost imagine Young on the verge of breaking into tears as he grovels for one of the master architects of the Iraq War.
Andrew Young has done many distinguished things in his life, and I don't want to take anything from him on those fronts. But seriously, Ambassador Young has some chutzpah to counsel the rest of America on what lines should and should not be crossed -- and what should be forgiven and not in our public leaders.
One reader remarked to me this morning that "Andrew Young never saw a well-financed cause he did not love."
Remember Andrew Young's perceived conflicts of interest with Wal-Mart? and Nike?

By GREG BLUESTEIN 18 hours ago
ATLANTA (AP) After a Georgia inmate convicted of murdering a police officer was spared from execution a second time, the condemned man's widely publicized supporters erupted in joy. But far from television cameras, the victim's family seethed.
"My son is dead. Theirs is still alive," said Anneliese MacPhail, the officer's mother. "That's just the way I feel."
Arm-in-arm with the Rev. Al Sharpton, Troy Davis' exultant family and a busload of supporters sang, wept and prayed Tuesday when they learned he was granted a temporary reprieve from the U.S. Supreme Court just hours before he was to be executed.
It was the second time he had been spared and, for Davis' family, another opportunity to proclaim his innocence and press for a new trial. The execution will be delayed for at least a couple of weeks. The court is scheduled to review Davis' appeal at a private conference on Monday.
Away from the spotlight was the grieving family of Mark MacPhail, who was shot and killed in 1989 while moonlighting as a security guard at a Savannah bus station. He rushed to help a homeless man who had been pistol-whipped and was shot twice when he approached Davis and two other men.
Embittered by delays and legal maneuvering, the family was devastated by Tuesday's reprieve.
"I'm furious, disgusted and disappointed," Anneliese MacPhail said. "I want this over with. This has been hanging over us for 19 years."
Davis was convicted in 1991, after prosecutors at his trial said he approached McPhail with a "smirk on his face" as he fired the gun. But seven of the nine key witnesses who helped put Davis on death row have since recanted their statements. Three other people have said one of the witnesses who testified at Davis' trial later confessed to killing the officer.
The fresh doubts, coupled with Davis' claims of innocence, have drawn support from high-profile leaders like President Jimmy Carter and South Africa Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Amnesty International has organized protests as far away as Paris, and Sharpton has helped lead rallies calling for a new trial.
Amid the concerns, the state pardons board postponed Davis' execution in July 2007 less than 24 hours before it was to occur. The courts have since thoroughly vetted the case.
A divided Georgia Supreme Court this year has twice rejected his request for a new trial, and the pardons board turned down his bid for clemency this month after considering the case again.
The U.S. Supreme Court issued its last-minute stay Tuesday night after Davis had already turned down his last meal and prepared his final statement.
For MacPhail's family, the lengthy appeals process has been excruciating.
"If I saw him, I'd punch him in the face," the victim's mother said of Davis. "I am angry at the whole family. I don't know how they have such a following."
Mark MacPhail was an Army Ranger for almost six years before he and his wife decided to settle down and he became a police officer in Savannah.
To his 74-year-old mother, who sat through the trial and becomes livid when she talks about the case, there's no question that Davis pulled the trigger.
"I don't think there will ever be closure. There's a hole in our heart that will never be healed," she said. "But we just want Mark to rest in peace. And we want to live now. We have just been existing all these years, waiting for the next shoe to drop.
"When it's over, justice has been done. That's the way we feel."

By JEFFRY SCOTT and MARCUS K. GARNER
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Saturday, September 20, 2008
New York civil rights activist Al Sharpton said condemned cop killer Troy Anthony Davis was surprisingly upbeat Saturday night after the two prayed together on Georgias death row.
He was not overly optimistic or pessimistic, said the Rev. Sharpton, who visited Davis on death row at Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison in Jackson at the request of Davis family. He was suprisingly upbeat. He seemed like he was depending on his faith to see him through.
Sharpton has joined a growing chorus of prominent figures calling for Georgia to spare the life of the 39-year-old, who is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection Tuesday night for the 1989 murder of Savannah police Officer Mark Allen MacPhail.
If you have this kind of wide array of people who dont agree on much, but who believe that clemency is needed in this case, that should impress upon [the Georgia State Pardons and Parole Board] to give him another opportunity to show that there is not reasonable doubt, Sharpton said.
But Scheree Lipscomb, a spokeswoman for the Pardons and Parole Board, said Saturday night there would be no last-minute clemency.
The board members have considered clemency on two occasions, Lipscomb said. They stand firm in the decision that they have made.
Both former President Jimmy Carter and Bob Barr, a Libertarian Party presidential candidate and former Georgia congressman, on Friday asked the board to grant Davis a stay of execution.
Barr wrote a letter to the parole board last week asking it to reconsider the Davis case because, he wrote, the doubts about the Davis case have not been resolved, and fears that Georgia might execute an innocent man have not been allayed.
Carter issued a statement Friday asking the parole board to reconsider the case, saying it illustrates the deep flaws in the application of the death penalty in this country.
Carter wrote that executing Troy Davis without a real examination of potentially exonerating evidence risks taking the life of an innocent man and would be a grave miscarriage of justice.
Georgians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty and the NAACP said Saturday they are planning another rally at 11 a.m. Monday in front of the State Capitol to urge the parole board to reconsider or the state Supreme Court to stay the execution of Davis while his case is appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Davis is convicted of killing MacPhail, on Aug. 19, 1989. Since Davis 1991 trial, several key witnesses have recanted their testimony. Witness testimony formed the core of the prosecutions case because physical evidence was scant: no murder weapon, no fingerprints, no DNA.
The case has attracted worldwide attention, with calls to stop his execution from Pope Benedict XVI, Amnesty International and Nobel Peace Prize-winner Desmond Tutu. Rallies have been held as far away as Paris.
Officer MacPhails mother, Anneliese MacPhail, 74, of Columbus, said Saturday she is disgusted by the outpouring of support for Davis. Its tearing me apart to see my sons name dragged through the mud because of all of this.
She said she had no doubt Davis is guilty. I hope this is over Tuesday and I can have some peace, she said.
She will not attend the scheduled execution, but three of my children will be in Jackson, she said.
GFADP also plans a vigil outside the Jackson jail, as well as a protest on the Capitol steps, both to begin at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Sharpton spent about 35 minutes with Davis on Saturday night, and said by phone that the death-row inmate reflected on how he became a murder suspect.
He said he got in with the wrong crowd and thought one of the guys he was hanging with killed [MacPhail], Sharpton said. He said young people should be careful who they hang around.
