<h3>DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) was snapped while running errands in Los Angeles recently, and in the photos you can see the extent of his injuries.</h3>
<p>AM, who has vowed to never fly again  (just like Travis Barker), was spotted with a shaved head and a very burned left arm. He suffered second and third degree burns after last month&#8217;s Learjet crash.</p>
<p>Goldstein is excited to return to the stage this week at the Hollywood Palladium &#8211; as Jay-Z&#8217;s DJ!</p>
<p>AM told People magazine,</p>
<blockquote>
<h3>&#8220;He&#8217;s the greatest rapper in the world. This is the biggest thing that&#8217;s happened in my career.&#8221;</h3>
</blockquote>
<p>Well, the plane crash didn&#8217;t exactly hurt his career. Quite the opposite, I think. I&#8217;m sure lots of opportunites and endorsements will follow. And good for him, he deserves it. I always liked AM.<br />

The massive yacht that you may have seen <strong>Jay-Z</strong> and <strong>Beyonce</strong> lounging around on lately is the <strong>&#8216;Lady Lola&#8217;</strong>.</p>
<p>Lola is one hell of an <strong>amazing yacht</strong>. I mean just imagine this spread.. </p>
<p><em>&#8216;<strong>“Lady Lola”</strong> was designed and built around key manufacturing principles:</p>
<p>Worldwide cruising with long-range capabilities.</p>
<p>As privacy is very important to the owners, the upper deck is a <strong>full private</strong>. Owners’ deck that can be <strong>entirely closed off</strong> from the rest of the vessel. It includes a forward master stateroom with its <strong>panoramic 270-degree view </strong>and <strong>private balcony</strong>, as well as a <strong>3,500-square-foot suite</strong> including a salon, an office and opening aft on a large covered private terrace.</p>
<p>The boat brings the outside in, with dramatic <strong>floor-to-ceiling windows</strong>, sliding doors, and the elimination of internal barriers to the free flow of light, air and people.</p>
<p>Unique entertainment features such as the tender beach club, the pool with <strong>two-levels waterfall </strong>(first time on a yacht), the <strong>retractable golf tee </strong>that appears at the touch of a button (first time on a yacht), the <strong>outdoor cinema</strong>, the extendible table and the protected private dining area, on the owners’ deck.</p>
<p>By looking carefully at the lay-out, you will be able to understand all the specificities of Lady Lola and all the technical challenges the shipyard had to fulfill in terms of structure and engineering : <strong>large pool</strong> with overflow system ; golf system ; strong structure allowing a <strong>touch and go area </strong>on the fly bridge while keeping large glass panels on the deck below ; large aft swimming platform combined with a <strong>big garage</strong> allowing <strong>two tenders</strong> to be launched on starboard ; automatic ballast ; <strong>stabilization at rest</strong> (zero speed).&quot;</em></p>
