[ "Robin Gibb, singer, songwriter and member of the musical group Bee Gees, died Sunday in London, England, of complications from colon and liver cancer. He was 62 years old.", "Robin, and his twin brother Maurice Gibb, were born December 22, 1949, on the Isle of Man, raised in Manchester, and later lived in Redcliffe, Australia.", "While the twins and their older brother Barry Gibb began performing at a young age in England, they later made appearances on television in Australia, but the brothers had already moved back to England by the time they scored their first international hit New York Mining Disaster 1941 in 1967. The three brothers are known for their blended vocal harmonies, but Robin's voice can best be heard on the song I Started A Joke.", "After several hits with the Bee Gees, Robin became a solo artist and had one hit in England, called Saved by the Bell. After that, he rejoined his brothers and had more hits in the early 1970s. Throughout the Bee Gees career, Robin shared songwriting duties with his brothers Barry and Maurice.", "The Bee Gees had a comeback in the mid-1970's with songs like Jive Talkin' and You Should Be Dancing before Robert Stigwood, who was their first manager, asked them to record songs for the film Saturday Night Fever, which became one of the best selling albums and produced major hits like Stayin' Alive, Night Fever and How Deep Is Your Love. It was during this period that the Bee Gees became known for their contributions to disco music.", "Speaking to a reporter from Weekend Australian in 2009, Robin Gibb said, \"Since 1967, there have only been three albums that have truly affected the culture, and that's the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper, Fever, and Michael Jackson's Thriller. There's not many people who know what that feels like. We're like the guys who have been to the moon.\"", "For the 100th Anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic in April, Gibb and his son, Robin-John Gibb, wrote a score for The Titanic Requiem, recorded by Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Gibb was too ill to attend the premiere and he fell into a coma later in April.", "Preceding Gibb in death were his younger brother Andy Gibb, who was a successful solo recording artist, in 1988 and his twin Maurice in 2003. Gibb is survived his 65-year-old brother Barry, a sister, and mother. He is also survived by his second wife Dwina Murphy and four children." ]

Michael was found dead at his home in Oxfordshire, England, by boyfriend Fadi Fawaz.", "Michael's publicist released the following statement to People and Entertainment Weekly: \"It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period. The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time.\" He also reported that Michael had died of heart failure and \"passed away peacefully\".", "Sir Elton John said via Instagram, \"I am in deep shock. I have lost a beloved friend — the kindest, most generous soul and a brilliant artist. My heart goes out to his family and all of his fans.\"", "George Michael was born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou in London. Over his multi-decade career, he sold more than 100 million records. Along with co-singer Andrew Ridgeley he became famous as part of the duo band Wham!. Together, Michael and Ridgeley produced several hit songs, such as Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, Freedom, and Last Christmas. In 1985, Wham! was the first Western band to play in China since the beginning of the country's opening up strategy. Wham! dissolved in 1986. In 1984, Michael recorded the successful single Careless Whisper. Michael was credited as the solo artist in the United Kingdom and as \"Wham! featuring George Michael\" in the United States. Michael released a hit solo album Faith in 1987, containing hits like I Want Your Sex.", "Michael's life was troubled by both substance abuse and issues with his sexuality. He initially hid his identity as a gay man from his fans, coming out only after a very public arrest for public lewdness in 1998. He would later be arrested for possession of drugs and driving under the influence of drugs. He was sentenced to eight weeks in prison in 2010 for crashing a Range Rover into a storefront while under the influence of drugs and possession of cannabis.", "Michael had a history of transforming his negative experiences into art. He wrote White Light about a serious case of pneumonia that led to his hospitalization in 2011, and the music video for Outside, which followed on the heels of his arrest and coming out, showed scenes of a men's bathroom, a dance club, and men kissing while in police uniforms. He would perform White Light live at the 2012 London Olympics." ]

[ "17 января в Рейкьявике в возрасте 64 лет умер экс-чемпион мира по шахматам Бобби Фишер. Сообщается, что Фишер в течение последних месяцев болел и скончался в больнице. Официально причина смерти пока не названа, неофициальные источники сообщают, что причина смерти — почечная недостаточность. С 2005 года Фишер проживал в Исландии, где ему было предоставлено политическое убежище.", "Фишер был известен как шахматный вундеркинд и шахматный гений. Коэффициент интеллекта Фишера — 186.", "С 1972 по 1975 год Роберт Фишер был чемпионом мира по шахматам.\nВ 1972 году Роберт Фишер выиграл матч на первенство мира у Бориса Спасского. Тот матч проходил в Рейкьявике (Исландия). Матч имел огромный резонанс во всем мире. В годы холодной войны он рассматривался как противостояние США и СССР. Фишер стал первым, и пока единственным, американским чемпионом мира по шахматам. Фишер отобрал звание чемпиона мира по шахматам у советских шахматистов, которые владели им с 1948 года.", "Матч 1972 года Спасский — Фишер вдохновил и Владимира Высоцкого к написанию известной песни «Честь шахматной короны», в которой есть такие слова: «Но учти, что Фишер очень ярок,-/Даже спит с доскою — сила в ем,…».", "Однако, став чемпионом мира, Фишер перестал играть в шахматы на высшем уровне. В 1975 году он отказался защищать свой титул в матче против Анатолия Карпова и был лишен звания чемпиона мира. Свой отказ Фишер обосновывал тем, что Международная федерация шахмат не выполнила его условий проведения матча.", "Известен Фишер также своими экстравагантными поступками. Ходили слухи, что он пожелал удалить пломбы из своих зубов, так как был убежден, что советские тайные службы с помощью микропередатчиков оказывают на него влияние через амальгаму зубных пломб.", "Фишер уединился в Калифорнии и в течение двадцати лет жил как фантом. Никто не мог побудить его вернуться в шахматы. Фишер имел финансовые проблемы, но отказывался от всех предложений, которые сулили ему миллионные гонорары.", "Только в сентябре 1992 года Фишер согласился сыграть матч-реванш против Бориса Спасского. Фишер победил, за что получил 5,5 миллиона долларов (по другим источникам — 3 миллиона). Однако после этого матча он не мог вернуться в США, где ему грозило судебное преследование за нарушение экономической блокады, установленной Соединенными Штатами против Сербии. И знаменитый шахматист продолжал вести уединенную жизнь в различных странах Европы, а с 2000 года в основном в Японии.", "В июле 2004 года Фишера арестовали в аэропорту Токио, обвинив в незаконном пребывании в стране, так как его американский паспорт был недействителен. Обвиняемый, как обычно, заявил, что в его бедах виноваты евреи. Фишер и его адвокаты защищались против депортации в США всеми возможными способами. В конце концов Фишер отказался от американского гражданства и попросил политического убежища. После освобождения он заявил, что это был не арест, а похищение, которое организовали Буш и Коидзуми.\nВ США Фишер мог бы быть осужден на срок до десяти лет за то, что вопреки экономической блокаде Сербии играл матч против Бориса Спасского в городе Свети-Стефан.", "Избежать высылки в США Фишеру помогло правительство Исландии, которое предоставило ему политическое убежище и постоянный вид на жительство. Тогдашний министр иностранных дел Исландии Дэвид Оддсон разъяснил, что в Исландии проживают множество эксцентричных людей, поэтому мы можем позволить себе ещё одного. В 2005 году Фишер приехал в Исландию и получил исландское гражданство. Однако антисемитские высказывания Фишера не нашли поддержки и в Исландии.", "Летом 2005 года Борис Спасский побывал в Исландии и попытался уговорить Фишера сыграть ещё один матч, но безуспешно.", "Властимир Горт: Мы все должны зажечь свечи в память о Фишере, это он добился того, что шахматисты имеют возможность получать более высокие призовые деньги.", "Михаил Таль: Фишер — величайший гений, спустившийся с шахматного неба.", "Марк Тайманов: Это ужасное чувство, как будто я играю против машины, которая не ошибается и крушит мое сопротивление.", "Юрий Балашов: Казалось, что Фишер никогда не имеет плохих фигур. Он их разменивает, и плохие фигуры остаются у противника.", "Алексей Суэтин: О Боже! Фишер играет так просто!", "Найджел Шорт: Почему администрация Буша находит необходимым травить 61-летнего человека, который не представляет опасности ни для кого, кроме самого себя.", "Моя сестра купила мне шахматы в кондитерской и показала мне, как делать ходы.", "В школе ничему не учат. Это только потеря времени.", "Я играю серьезно и играю, чтобы выиграть. Если я проигрываю, то принимаю лекарства.", "Как выигрывает Таль?

Cantu, a head chef at the Moto restaurant in Chicago, has modified an ink-jet printer with the help of computer specialists from local firm Deep Labs and loaded it with cartridges containing concoctions of fruit and vegetables. Using this modified printer Cantu then prints onto edible sheets of soybean and potato starch tasty images downloaded from the web.", "“You can make an ink-jet printer do just about anything,” says Cantu. Once the items have been printed they are dipped into a powder made of soy sauce, sugar and vegetables before then being further processed by frying, freezing, or baking them.", "Cantu has applied the technique to the printing of menus so that diners can further flavor their soups by ripping up the menu and adding it to the dish.", "He hopes that his idea may find its way into popular media. “Just imagine going through a magazine and looking at an ad for pizza. You wonder what it tastes like, so you rip a page out and eat it,” says the chef who is working at perfecting the flavors and has applied for a patent on the technique.", "Cantu also has plans for further culinary innovations. He plans to cook steak using a handheld laser that will sear the inside of the steak well done whilst leaving the outside medium rare. He also plans to use the laser to produce bread baked from the inside out thus producing a crust on the inside." ]

[ "Chicago's Metra is currently considering the possibility of selling the naming rights to its train stations, rail lines, and even bridges to generate more revenue.", "The regional rail system for Chicago and its surrounding suburbs has been experiencing revenue shortfalls, along with other public transportation agencies such as the Chicago Transit Authority and Pace. They all rely on sales taxes and fares to fund their services, but the recent recession has reduced sales tax revenues, and unemployment has caused ridership to fall. Compared to 86.8 million trips in 2008, Metra reported that only 82.3 million trips were provided in 2009. As spokeswoman Judy Pardonnet said, \"We're looking at any opportunity to increase non-fare revenue.\"", "A law approved by former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich in 2008 granted free rides to all seniors regardless of income, adding to the decreasing fare revenues as well. State lawmakers are trying to restrict the free rides to low-income seniors; Metra has not yet commented on the issue, however.", "New designs put on the agency's website last September has attracted more traffic, and Metra is considering selling advertising space online. In addition, advertising space could be sold on the outside of train cars as well. As for the naming rights to stations and routes, Metra plans to hire a consultant that would figure out the details of such a proposal. Spokesperson Meg Reihle did not know how much money Metra could gain from the sale or which organizations would be interested in buying.", "According to Ms. Reihle, public transit agencies in other cities have sold naming rights as well, such as the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority in Cleveland and Long Island Rail Road in Long Island. TECO Energy sponsors a rail line in Tampa's Hillsborough Area Regional Transit for US$1 million over ten years.", "Throughout its 26-year history, Metra has named several of its locomotives and renamed two stations: Ogilvie Transportation Center, which was previously named North Western Station, and Millennium Terminal, which was previously called Randolph Street. No transactions were made in renaming those two stations, however. There is also a Station named after the candy maker Mars, but that station was named before Metra took it over, and the company doesn't pay Metra for any naming rights.", "Execuive Director Phil Pagano sees the proposal as a way for businesses to advertise themselves. \"I think the business community recognizes that transit is positive for their advertising benefit,\" said Mr. Pagano at a board meeting. In addition to businesses, hospitals located near the train stations could purchase naming rights as well. However, Mr. Pagano has also stated that \"the agency would be selective about the type of businesses it partners with.\"", "Metra has said that it will be sensitive to the wishes of the communities near the stops, and town names will not be removed from station names. Rather, both the municipality and the sponsoring organization would share the naming rights, such as in renaming Naperville Station to \"Naperville Boeing Station\". \"I'm not sure whether [the old name] is first or second, but definitely it's going to have to be there,\" said Mr. Pagano." ]

Működési területe Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry és Will megyékre[1] terjed ki, 11 vonalat és ezekhez kapcsolódóan 200 állomást üzemeltet. A társaság bevétele – az utasforgalommal együtt – némileg visszaesett az elmúlt évben, így ennek ellensúlyozására a vállalat most alternatív forrásokat keres. Az egyik felmerült ötlet szerint értékesíteni lehetne az állomások, a vonalak, de még egyes hidak elnevezési jogát is.", "A menetdíjakból származó bevétel több okból is csökkent. Egyrészt a gazdasági világválság nyomán növekedett a munkanélküliség, így kevesebb lett az ingázó és ezzel csökkent az utasok száma is. Míg 2008-ban 86,8, addig 2009-ben csak 82,3 milliónyian utaztak a vállalat vonalain. Másrészt Illinois korábbi kormányzója, Rod Blagojevich 2008-ban kihirdette az idősek ingyenes utazásáról szóló törvényt. Az állam hivatalai egyébként most készítenek elő egy törvénytervezetet, amely a jogosultak körét a korhatáron túl anyagi helyzethez is kötné.", "A vállalat másik fontos forrása a helyben szedett forgalmi adó ráeső része: a magyarországi gyakorlattól eltérően ez az adónem többszintű, a nettó árra az állam mellett a megye, a város és ezeken keresztül a helyi tömegközlekedés is adókulcsot tehet, sőt bizonyos termékkörök más szervezetek által is adóztathatók. Cook megyében például (amelyben maga Chicago is található) 10,25% az adókulcs, amelyből 6,25% állami, 1,75% megyei és 1,25% városi szintű, továbbá 1% illeti meg a tömegközlekedést. A válság nyomán azonban a fogyasztás is visszaesett, vele együtt pedig az általa generált adó.", "Az elnevezési jogok értékesítése nem lenne egyedi lépés: Cleveland és Rhode Island tömegközlekedési vállalatai élő példaként szolgálnak. 26 éves fennállása alatt a Metra mindössze két állomás nevét változtatta meg, a többinél a mai napig megtartotta a korábbi üzemeltető által is használt neveket. A vállalat egyik megállója egyébként éppen a Mars édességgyár (többek között a Milky Way, a Twix és a Snickers gyártója) nevét viseli – azonban ez is örökölt, s jelenleg nem fizetnek díjat utána. A vállalat vezetősége nem zárja ki, hogy a környező gyárak mellett akár helyi kórházak is így hirdessék majd magukat. Mindazonáltal leszögezték, hogy a megálló régi neve – az egyértelmű azonosíthatóság kedvéért – az újban is fel lesz tüntetve. Például ha az állomás környéke után elnevezett Naperville Station névjogát megvenné a Boeing, akkor az Naperville Boeing Station gyanánt működhetne tovább.", "A Metra egyik további terve, hogy online hirdetési felületeket alakít ki honlapján." ]

I am a volunteer in that campaign, and so I am not a staffer. And I thought it could have taken votes away from a lot of people.\"", "Another Obama supporter, state Representative Bakari Sellers, also admitted to making the calls. \"I placed the calls as a concerned Democrat, realizing that we are a country in despair,\" Sellers told CNN. \"It is not a time for games or to make a mockery of the process.\"", "Yesterday Colbert officially withdrew from the race. “I am shocked and saddened by the South Carolina Democratic Executive Council’s 13-to-3 vote to keep me off their presidential primary ballot,” he said in the statement. “Although I lost by the slimmest margin in presidential election history — only 10 votes — I have chosen not to put the country through another agonizing Supreme Court battle. It is time for this nation to heal.”", "According to Tenenbaum, the reason she did not want Colbert on the ballot was financial and not political. For every name the Democrats put on the ballot in South Carolina, they have to pay US$20,000 to the state election commission.", "The Obama campaign denied any connection to the phone calls.", "In related news, at a book signing at Borders Book Store in New York City last night, a protester posing as a member of the press disrupted the event, demanding Colbert make statements about 7 World Trade Center. Despite preliminary findings by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Institute of Standards and Technology that fire caused them, some conspiracy theorists believe the dramatic building collapses on September 11, including that of building seven, were the result of controlled demolition. NIST has \"found no evidence of a blast or controlled demolition event\", though in its final report on building 7, they would \"like to determine the magnitude of hypothetical blast scenarios that could have led to the structural failure of one or more critical elements.\"", "\"What about World Trade Center Number 7, Stephen?\" shouted the protester. \"What are you going to say about that? Why don't you give us a witty remark and make a joke about it? Keep smirking, Stephen!\" The protester was removed by the book store's security." ]

En el equipo, patrocinado por el gobierno de Kazajstán, han anunciado su retiro el director técnico Johan Bruyneel y el propio Lance Artmstrong, agravado con la crisis económica que atraviesa, por lo cual algunos medios han puesto en duda su continuidad en las próximas temporadas. Una sanción por dopaje impidió su participación al equipo el año anterior. En sus declaraciones, Contador afirmó \"he hecho dos Tours, uno en bici y otro en el hotel\", haciendo referencia a las tensiones que se presentan actualmente." ]

The show was halted after the accident for the first time in the show's history.", "A spokesperson at Dusseldorf University Hospital commented on Koch's condition. He said Koch was \"in an extremely critical stage\" and warned that he was showing \"signs of paralysis\".", "Koch was attempting to jump over five moving cars using spring-powered stilts known as \"powerbocks\". He jumped over the first three but hit the fourth vehicle and crashed to the floor.", "Several celebrities were due to perform on the show after the stunt had taken place. Canadian singer Justin Bieber was one of those due to appear. He cancelled his appearance after the accident and released a statement through his Twitter page. The singer said \"some things are more important than putting on a show.\" He also sent his wishes to Koch saying, \"Please pray for Samuel Koch and his family as we wait and hope for his health and safety.\"", "Wetten, dass..? has been running for 29 years and is shown several times each year. The show features members of the public performing stunts on which the celebrity guests predict the outcome. The show has been known as a family friendly show, however, a German newspaper has questioned whether the show is suitable for children after the accident.", "The Rheinische Post said, \"Since Saturday evening, finally, parents have to think seriously about whether Wetten Dass…? represents an appropriate format for children. It was not really foreseeable that many children would be watching as a contestant sustained life-threatening injuries but there has always been an element of risk surrounding the program.\"", "The producers of the show have announced that the programme will continue to broadcast despite the accident. Thomas Bellut, the programme director of the television station, made the announcement ZDF. Bellut told a public radio station, \"'Wetten, dass' will certainly continue.\" He did defend the show's safety standards saying, \"We will boost our safety standards once again although we were always of the opinion that they could hardly be more stringent.\"" ]

For example, on the day before the Halloween special, Angel told Larry King, \"No one has the ability, that I'm aware of, to do anything supernatural, psychic, talk to the dead. And that was what I said I was going to do with Phenomenon. If somebody goes on that show and claims to have supernatural psychic ability, I'm going to bust them live and on television.\"", "In the midst of the confrontation, the TV show cut to a commercial break. Vincent said the show was not \"Jerry Springer.\" When the last contestant appeared Angel said it was \"a hell of a lot more entertaining than the previous act.\" The following week Callahan was voted off the show by the TV audience.", "James Randi, a former magician who had previously worked with Angel and a long standing critic of Geller and psychics, wrote of the incident, \"Criss Angel said, in his rather lengthy comments, '[Callahan] demonstrated something that is unexplainable to some' — though to whom that might have applied, I cannot fathom — and Criss is beginning to sound very much like that chap James Randi, tossing about a million-dollar challenge.\"", "This is not the first time that Uri Geller has been challenged by a professional magician. Thirty years ago, during a French television show called Droit de réponse, Gerard Majax demonstred that all \"so called\" powers shown previously during the show by Geller could be reproduced by a magician even more convincingly than Geller." ]

You can also find panels that teach you how to write better, be a better fiction author for example,\" explained the event representative.", "At one panel Wikinews attended, members of its all-volunteer organising committee spoke of the year-long process of planning the event, and their reasons for committing such a significant amount of their time.

Benutzern war es nicht mehr möglich, Artikel zu veröffentlichen, obwohl noch eine Bestätigung beim Einschicken von neuen Artikeln angezeigt wurde.", "Im Vorfeld dieser Benutzeraktion wurde der Suchmaschinenbetreiber Google von der für die Lizenzvergabe von AACS zuständigen Organisation-Advanced-Access-Content-System-License-Administrator aufgefordert, mehrere Internetseiten mit besagten Code aus der Datenbank zu entfernen und eine Unterlassungserklärung abzugeben, um so einen Rechtsstreit zu umgehen. Die zuständige Kanzlei deute die Indizierung der Links zu diesen Seiten als Verletzung des US-amerikanischen Digital Millenium Copyright Acts (DMCA), der das Umgehen, das Verbreiten von Software zur Umgehung und auch das Beschreiben der Umgehung im Ganzen und in Teilen von Kopierschutz-Maßnahmen verbietet.", "Diese juristische Aufforderung an Google und die Zensierung der Artikel in Digg waren nicht die einzigen Gründe, warum die Benutzer sich der Eigenschaften des Web 2.0 bedienten und eine Spam-Attacke durchführten, sondern nur die prominentesten Fälle. Wie viele andere Seiten ist auch Digg auf die freiwillige Teilnahme der Benutzer angewiesen, um Inhalte zu generieren. Bei Digg können Benutzer Links zu anderen Seiten setzen, um diese anderen Benutzern mitzuteilen und auf diese hinzuweisen. Eine größere Kontrollinstanz ist nicht vorhanden, so dass die Artikel nur auf wenige redaktionelle Themen und unerwünschte Inhalte, wie Pornographie und rassistische Inhalte, im Nachhinein geprüft werden und schnell veröffentlicht werden können. Diese wenigen Filtermethoden führten zur Flut an Veröffentlichung als Protestreaktion und der folgenden Aufgabe der überforderten Verantwortlichen von Digg.", "Aber nicht nur Digg ist von dieser Benutzerrevolte betroffen, sondern auch weitere Seiten mit vornehmlich User Generated Content.

The song won the competition with 272 points; 42 points ahead of Ukraine's Ani Lorak in second place with 230 points for the song Shady Lady. Third was Kalomira for Greece with Secret Combination The voting for the competition came from 43 countries across Europe, but with 25 countries competing, the others having failed to get through the semi finals.

Fourth last was Teräsbetoni, a Finnish heavy metal band performing in their native language with Missä Mihet Ratsastaa (Where Men Ride). Sweden's Charlotte Perrelli had been predicted to repeat her 1999 victory, this time with Hero, but also received a low score.", "There was an estimated 100 million television viewers from across Europe.", "UK commentator Terry Wogan has garnered significant media attention for criticising the contest live towards the end of the broadcast for being overly political. \"It's a disappointment, considering that Andy Abraham gave, I think, the performance of his life with a song that certainly deserved more marks than it got when you look at the points that Spain got, that Bosnia-Herzegovina got - some really ridiculous songs,\" he said. \"You have to say that this is no longer a music contest... I have to decide whether we (himself and his producer, who already announced he wanted to leave) want to do this again. Western European participants have to decide whether they want to take part from here on in, because their prospects are poor.\" He called the contest \"political\".", "Spain was represented by Rodolfo Chikilicuatre with Baila el Chiki Chiki (Dance the Chiki Chiki) and Bosnia and Herzegovina by Elvir Laković Laka with Pokušaj (try).", "Bilan, who received the maximum 12 points from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus and Armenia, all of which are former Soviet countries, was sent a telegram from Putin to congratulate him after his victory. Mevedev also contacted him later by phone to congratulate him. \"Russia is the favorite now, it's just tearing everybody up — in basketball, football, hockey, and Eurovision!\" commented champion figure skater Evgeni Plushenko, who had joined Bilan onstage to skate as part of the winning performance. He is now also a politician.", "Next year's contest will be held in Russia." ]

[ "US disco singer Donna Summer died Thursday aged 63 in Key West, Florida, following a struggle with lung cancer. During her career, Summer won five Grammy Awards and had nineteen number one singles in the US charts.", "Summer's family gave the following statement: \"Early this morning, we lost Donna Summer Sudano, a woman of many gifts, the greatest being her faith. While we grieve her passing, we are at peace celebrating her extraordinary life and her continued legacy.\"", "Her first hit was the 1975 track Love To Love You Baby, which was banned by the BBC.", "The 1977 Giorgio Moroder-produced single I Feel Love pioneered the use of synthesisers. Brian Eno told David Bowie upon hearing the song, \"I've heard the sound of the future\".", "After disco's popularity wound down, Summer moved across genres, with the 1979 song Hot Stuff earning her a Grammy Award for best rock vocal performance. She said of this: \"I am actually the first woman — not black woman — but woman, period, to get a rock-and-roll Grammy\".", "Donna Summer also appeared in the 1979 movie Thank God It's Friday, and her performance of the song Last Dance earned her an Academy Award for best song.", "Her popularity in the gay community was threatened in the 1980s after it was reported that she had made anti-gay remarks at a concert, specifically that \"AIDS is the result of your sins\". In 1989, she told the gay magazine The Advocate that she did not make the statements she was reported to have made, and expressed regret at the loss of friends to AIDS: \"I never said, ‘If you are gay, God hates you.’ Come on. Be real. I don’t understand that. Anybody who really knows me knows I wouldn’t say that.\"", "Summer was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1948 as LaDonna Adrian Gaines. She learned she could sing in her church's gospel choir and then in musicals. In 1973, she married an actor she had met in Austria, Helmuth Sommer, from whom she gets the name \"Summer\". Before her divorce in 1975, Summer gave birth to Mimi Summer. Five years later, she remarried to Bruce Sudano, a musician, who fathered two daughters, Brooklyn and Amanda." ]
