Feb. 23, 2013: Chris Kelly of Kris Kross performs on stage at
the Fox Theatre in Atlanta during the So So Def 20th Anniversary
Concert.APATLANTA Chris Kelly, half of the 1990s kid rap duo Kris
Kross who made one of the decade's most memorable songs with the
frenetic "Jump," has died, and authorities say they are investigating his
death as a possible drug overdose.Investigator Betty Honey of the Fulton
County Medical Examiner's office said the 34-year-old Kelly was pronounced
dead around 5 p.m. Wednesday at the south campus of the Atlanta
Medical Center.Cpl. Kay Lester of the Fulton County police said "it appears
it may have been a possible drug overdose."An official cause of death
is pending an autopsy.Kelly, known as "Mac Daddy," and Chris Smith, known
as "Daddy Mac," were introduced to the music world in 1992 by
music producer and rapper Jermaine Dupri after he discovered the pair in
an Atlanta mall. The duo wore their clothes backwards as a gimmick,
but they won over fans with their raps.Their first, and by far
most successful song, was "Jump." The hit, off their multiplatinum 1992
debut album "Totally Krossed Out," featured the two trading versus and rapping
the refrain, the song's title. The duo had surprising maturity in their
rap delivery, though the song was written by Dupri. It would become
a No. 1 smash in the United States and globally, and one
of the most popular of that year.Their success led to instant fame:

y.Microsoft's larger Surface Pro tablets, which run
standard Windows 8, did better in the quarter. IDC didn't specify how
many, but it's at least 700,000 based on the figures provided.Microsoft
has said it plans to release a series of smaller tablets in
coming months, apparently to compete with Apple's iPad Mini and Amazon.com's
Kindle Fire. Windows RT is the likely software choice for the tablets.Meanwhile,
the global tablet market more than doubled to 49.2 million units, according
to IDC's estimate. That means nearly two tablets were sold for every
three PCs, a record level.Apple remained the largest maker of tablets, but
its market share shrank to 39 percent, the lowest yet. Samsung Electronics
is cementing its position as the second-largest maker of tablets, with 18
percent market share, according to IDC.Microsoft's market share was 1.8
percent, with 900,000 Windows RT and Windows 8 tablets shipped. It's at
No. 5, behind AsusTek and Amazon.

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">March 23, 2013: In this file photo provided by the Vatican paper
L'Osservatore Romano, Pope Francis, right, and Pope emeritus Benedict XVI
meet in Castel Gandolfo. Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi
said Tuesday April 30, 2013 that retired Pope Benedict XVI is moving
into his new retirement home in the Vatican gardens on Thursday. Benedict
has been living at the papal residence in Castel Gandolfo, in the
hills south of Rome, ever since he resigned on Feb. 28AP/Osservatore RomanoVATICAN
CITY Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI comes home on Thursday to a
new house and a new pope, as an unprecedented era begins of
a retired pontiff living side-by-side with a reigning one inside the Vatican
gardens.All eyes will be on Benedict's physical state as he is welcomed
by Pope Francis at his new retirement home, a converted monastery tucked
behind St. Peter's Basilica. The last time he was seen by the
public March 23 Benedict appeared remarkably more frail and thin
than when he left the Vatican on his final day as pope
three weeks earlier.The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, has
acknowledged Benedict's post-retirement decline but insists the 86-year-old
German isn't suffering from any ailment and is just old."He is a
man who is not young: He is old and his strength is
slowly ebbing," Lombardi said this week. "However, there is no special illness.
He is an old man who is healthy."Since his Feb. 28 resignation,
Benedict has bee
a year later, neither side in the contraception
debate was happy with the FDA's surprise twist, which many perceived as
an attempt to find a palatable middle ground between imposing an age
limit of 17 and imposing no limit at all.Any over-the-counter access marks
a long-awaited change, but it's not enough, said Dr. Cora Breuner of
the American Academy of Pediatrics, which supports nonprescription sale
of the morning-after pill for all ages."We still have the major issue,
which is our teen pregnancy rate is still too high," Breuner said.Even
though few young girls likely would use Plan B, which costs about
$50 for a single pill, "we know that it is safe for
those under 15," she said.Most 17- to 19-year-olds are sexually active,
and 30 percent of 15- and 16-year-olds have had sex, according to
a study published last month by the journal Pediatrics. Sex is much
rarer among younger teens. Likewise, older teens have a higher pregnancy
rate, but that study also counted more than 110,000 pregnancies among 15-
and 16-year-olds in 2008 alone.Contraception advocates see a double standard.
No one is carded when buying a condom, but under the FDA's
decision they would have to prove their age when buying a pill
to prevent pregnancy if that condom breaks."This isn't a compromise. This
is wrong," said Cynthia Pearson of the National Women's Health Network.Social
conservatives were outraged by the FDA's move to lower the age limits
