In an era when slides and negatives are no longer the coin of the realm, the case of Usher v. Corbis-Sygma may seem to have lost much timeliness. Except for this: one member of the three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals that most recently heard the case was Judge Sonia Sotomayor. The portfolio included photographs Mr. Usher had taken during the 2000 presidential campaign. “The value of these images is certainly more than $7 each,” Mr. Usher, 47, said in a telephone interview Tuesday from Alexandria, Va., where he lives. “But I’d so much rather have the...

In the 1650s, an Anglican bishop named James Ussher published his "Annals of the World," subtitled, "The Origin of Time, and Continued to the Beginning of the Emperor Vespasian's Reign and the Total Destruction and Abolition of the Temple and Commonwealth of the Jews."

This was taken from the Herald Sun published today (Thursday, 29th april) and Australian Newspaper. [i] "It Was Justin['s] Poor Taste." Usher plays down roumous of a fued between [he] and Justin Timberlake who some say stole Usher's moves and adopted a "blaccent." But he does have a problem with Justin's role in the Janet Jackson superbowl boob flash. Of course he's biased: Janet's boyfriend is Usher's main producer. "Justin kind of skated from the responsiblity of it," Usher says. "They're going to ridicule a person who'e black much more than a person who's not of colour. I thnk they...
