A signature of Steve Jobs for sale $95,000!

An award plaque given to an Apple employee is on sale at Moments In Time… for $95,000.

What makes it a rare and sought-after piece is that Steve Jobs scribbled his signature on it, something he usually refused to do, which automatically makes it an exceptional collectible!

Until his death in 2011, Jobs always refused to sign autographs… except for a few exceptions, and according to TMZ, a letter in which his signature was at the bottom would have been sold for nearly 500 000 dollars.

Which makes the starting price of $95,000 a bargain, right?

Nick Carter responds to sexual assault allegations

Wenn /CoverImages

Nick Carter has finally fought back in the alleged sexual assault case against him, as 12 witnesses support the Backstreet Boys member. These 12 people testified that the victim’s version of events was not true.

Recall that last December, Shannon Ruth sued Carter for sexual assault following an alleged incident involving her when she was a minor in 2001.

That said, the 12 witnesses reportedly included fans, security personnel and a talent manager. This dozen strongly indicated that the accuser’s story was “factually impossible.”

The story of Ruth, who says she is autistic and has cerebral palsy, states that she was in a line to get an autograph and that the fanatics had access to the parking space where the tour bus was.

Carter’s 12 witnesses, on the other hand, say it was impossible for the Backstreet Boys to interact with the alleged victim, and that there was no line and fans could not get on the band‘s bus.

In addition, the documents mention that a witness stated that there were phone call exchanges that suggested that Ruth had initiated a plot to extort Nick.

Who is telling the truth?

According to the plaintiff, the violent collision caused her numerous serious physical injuries, in addition to a concussion.

September 11: Was there a fifth plane?

Was there a fifth plane involved in the 9/11 attack?

At least that’s what TMZ claims with its documentary TMZ Investigates: 9/11: The Fifth Plane.

That’s what TMZ concludes after a six-month investigation, where they gathered disturbing testimony from a pilot and flight attendants of a plane that should have taken off from New York’s JFK airport that morning!

According to TMZ, the crew members claim that six suspicious passengers were on board their plane and that they would have been saved from a disaster, only because their airport would have been closed in an emergency.

Indeed, due to the events at the World Trade Center, the airport was closed and evacuated, as were the passengers on the plane… including the six alleged suspects.

What do you think about this?
