The attorneys filed court papers on behalf of Joe Jackson in Los Angeles Superior Court, urging the court to award Jackson's estranged father a family allowance "because Michael Jackson actually supported him during his lifetime and he does not have other source for support." Joe Jackson receives 1,700 dollars monthly in Social Security payments, and he has diabetes and had a stroke in 1998. The documents said the special administrators of the estate, John Branca and John McClain, should have obtained an allowance for him just as they did for the singer's mother, Katherine Jackson. Both men knew that Michael Jackson supported his father financially for decades, the court papers state. Katherine Jackson lives in Encino, California and Joe Jackson resides in Las Vegas, Nevada. Judge Mitchell L. Beckloff previously approved nearly 30,000 dollars in monthly payments to Katherine Jackson each month and another 60,000 dollars monthly payment for the care of the singer's three children. Michael Jackson, 50, died from a drug overdose on June 25 while he was rehearsing for 50 sold-out concerts in London. His personal physician Conrad Murray is considered the focus of a criminal investigation but he has not been charged. Police classified his death as homicide, and the investigation is still ongoing. &$&$Source: Xinhua&$&$ ]]> 6806670 2009-11-07 13:47:48 &$Joe Jackson, the father of deceased pop star Michael Jackson, poses for photographers backstage at the BET Awards '09 in Los Angeles June 28, 2009.(Xinhua/Agencies, File Photo)&$&$ The late pop singer Michael Jackson's 81-year-old father demanded his share of 15,000 dollars from the late son's estate as monthly expenses, his attorneys said Friday.

Some people think war is a continuation of political conflicts, some believe war is an unavoidable disaster. However, as innocent witnesses and also vulnerable victims of war, children are always the best narrators of the truth. What does a war look like in their eyes? Children from different regions have described the endless warfare worldwide as a horrible and stupid occurrence, or the result of greed for money, land and property. But at least we can celebrate that none of them like war. "Politicians are not willing to share lands and property, then they fight. I hope politicians will be more clever to solve problems in a peaceful way. I wish all the wars will be ended soon. War is the most horrible thing in the world." -- Denis, boy,11 years old, from Russia. "War breaks out because people want the same thing. My brother and I had a 'war', fighting for a bicycle both of us wanted. If there are more things in the world, everyone can have what he or she wants, maybe war will not occur." -- Paula Osman, girl, 10 years old, from Argentina. "People always want to get things which belong to others, that's why invasion and war breaks out. Of course, war is bad. It destroys homes, the earth and finally all the human beings." -- Han Zhenyu, boy, 13 years old, from China. "There are wars in the world because people don't like each other. War takes away many lives and tortures children. There are many wars in Africa, probably because the leaders don't want to let their power go during the elections." -- Michelle Lunkuse, girl, 10 years old, from Kenya. "Because of money! Wars should be ended. So many people died inwar." -- Arturo Hernandz, boy, 9 years old, from Mexico. "When there is any accident, or when people say unpleasant things, or when someone talks too much and angers others, or when sometimes we become too naughty making mom angry, then a war takes place." -- Kavya Aithani, girl, 8 years old, from India.
