Mom gives up child to be with a man

I read this post on the page of a friend's friend's page and was appalled.

How dare you send your only child to Foster care cos you are tired of being lonely and want to be with a man?? If a man doesn't want you because you have a child, then maybe he's not worth your time.
I know it's her business and he's her son but I will LOVE to tell this chick what I think about her irresponsible behavior. On the other hand, the son may be better off without her in his life. SMH!!

Anger Management scores biggest comedy debut in cable history

Charlie Sheen's new FX comedy "Anger Management" debuted to huge numbers last night, scoring the biggest scripted comedy debut in cable history. It pulled in 5.47 million total viewers, with 2.65 million of those in the coveted adults 18-49 demographic; that's the biggest series premiere in FX history. And even better news for Sheen and FX: The audience grew as the hour went on, with an audience of 5.74 million viewers tuning in for "Anger's" second half-hour.

These ratings seem certain to trigger a renewal order from FX, which, in an unusual arrangement, will lead to another 90 episodes of "Anger" being produced. And show runner Bruce Helford says his writing staff will soon get back to work dreaming up new stories for Sheen and company for Season 2.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to divorce

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are getting a divorce, bringing an end to one of Hollywood's most unexpected marriages, one that spawned euphoric couch-jumping on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and endless speculation in the tabloids.

After five years of marriage, Holmes filed for divorce from Cruise on Thursday, said Cruise's lawyer Bert Fields.

"This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family," Holmes's attorney Jonathan Wolfe said Friday. "Katie's primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter's best interest."

"Kate has filed for divorce and Tom is deeply saddened and is concentrating on his three children," Cruise's representative, Amanda Lundberg, told The Associated Press. "Please allow them their privacy to work this out."

Snoop Dogg busted in Norway with marijuana and cash

Norwegian media are reporting that Snoop Dogg was briefly detained in Norway after entering the country with marijuana and a large amount of cash.
Customs officials decline to confirm the report, saying only that an American artist entered Norway with a small amount of marijuana that was detected by a sniffer-dog. Norwegian law prevents law enforcement officials from naming suspects.

A customs officer who spoke on condition of anonymity said Thursday that the artist was also carrying more cash than is legally allowed and was subsequently fined 52,000 kroner ($8,600) for the violations.

Snoop Dogg was scheduled to perform today at a musical festival in the southern town of Kristiansand.

David Beckham not selected for Britain's Olympic squad

Former England captain David Beckham was not selected to the British football team for the London Olympics.
The Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder made Britain coach Stuart Pearce's shortlist of 35 but wasn't selected for the final 18-man squad as one of three players over the age of 23 allowed to compete in the games.
"Everyone knows how much playing for my country has always meant to me, so I would have been honored to have been part of this unique Team GB squad," the 37-year-old Beckham said today.

Beckham had been widely expected to be selected for the Olympic squad after playing an instrumental role in in helping Sebastian Coe and his team win the bid in 2005 to host the games.

"Naturally I am very disappointed, but there will be no bigger supporter of the team than me. And like everyone, I will be hoping they can win the gold.

"As a Londoner, I will have been really proud to have played a small part in bringing the Olympics to my home town as part of Seb's team, and I can't wait for the games to begin and enjoy every moment along with the rest of Great Britain," Beckham said.

Britain's three overage players will be Welsh stars Ryan Giggs and Craig Bellamy and English defender Micah Richards, a person familiar with the situation said.

I am sure a lot of people were looking forward to ogling his sexy body seeing him play at the Olympics but ..Oh well.

Yves Saint Laurent name change may bring sophistication back

When it was announced last week that Yves Saint Laurent was changing the name of its ready-to-wear line to Saint Laurent Paris, fashion purists went into a tweeting tizzy.
What about the brand's legacy? What does this mean for luxury? How will YSL survive?
Frankly, it's the best way for the Paris-based fashion house to move forward.

Although the YSL logo will remain on handbags, shoes, cosmetics and its boutiques, I'm betting it's only a matter of time before the company goes full throttle Saint Laurent Paris.
Here is why:
The custom-letter logo — created by graphic designer Adolphe Cassandre in 1961 — is, well, everywhere.
The brand may still have luxe prices — a handbag will run you about $2,000 and dresses range from $500 to $700 — but who can claim exclusivity when everyone seems to own a piece of it, real or knock off?
Reality housewives, basketball wives and starting Wednesday, Hollywood's ex-wives ( I am soo looking forward to seeing Will Smith's, Eddie Murphy's and R Kelly's ex wives tonight on the show's premier)  and , have all but killed the cache of luxury. How classy is a label when Atlanta Housewife NeNe (Cant stand her) "I'm very rich bitch" Leakes is dropping F-bombs while wearing YSL shoes, holding a YSL bag and rocking YSL pants? The so-called sophistication of high-end brands diminishes with every reality television show episode.
What's a luxury label to do?

Deserve to Die posters pop up in some U.S. cities

A provocative advertising campaign that declares hipsters, cat lovers and crazy old aunts "deserve to die" is popping up in major American cities, including New York, Chicago, Seattle and New Orleans.

The posters, placed on telephone booths and bus terminals, do not say what the campaign is for, but a quick online search leads to a website NoOneDeservesToDie.org that includes a countdown clock ticking down the minutes until midnight Thursday, when the "killer" is supposed to be revealed.

Who wore it better?

Rachael Ray turned heads at the 39th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards last weekend in a sexy Marc Bouwer dress. Turns out, Kim Kardashian wore the same black frock last year on the “Late Show with David Letterman.” The only difference? The celeb chef paired the curve-hugging dress with some chic sandals and a clutch. Who do you think wore the dress best?

Octomom Nadya Suleman's new boyfriend

Nadya Suleman, the mother of 14 children, who just starred in a porn movie to help raise enough money to feed her kids has a new boyfriend, Frankie Grageda. Frankie is a 23-year-old amateur bodybuilder whose perma-tan gives him an orange-brown glow. I no fit laff. He looks like one of those Orange men in the old Lagos Miranda drink commercial (The three orange men, lol).

The couple claim to be serious and have been dating for two months. I think he's only trying to promote himself by looking for cheap publicitiy. It's none of my business but this woman has 14 children that she's trying to raise. Her youngest kids are eight 3 year olds, does he really think she wants a 15th child? He says it's overwhelming to have so many children around them but that he's coping and taking it one step at a time.

Saudi Arabia will enter women for London Olympics

Good News!!

Saudi Arabia will enter women athletes in the Olympics for the first time ever in London this summer, the Islamic kingdom's London embassy said on Sunday. Huraay!!

Human rights groups had called on the International Olympic Committee to bar Saudi Arabia from competing in London, citing its failure ever to send a woman athlete to a Games and its ban on sports in girls' state schools.

Members of the first female Saudi basketball team "Jeddah United" in  March 2012

Powerful Muslim clerics in the ultra-conservative state have repeatedly spoken out against the participation of girls and women in sports. In 2009 a senior cleric said girls risked losing their virginity by tearing their hymens if they took part in energetic sport. (Ok, and..??)

Mom given bill to clean street after son was killed by drunk driver

Robinson told the judge she has been unable to work due to the emotional impact of her son's death, and can't pay the bills she keeps receiving from the accident even though her son was not at fault, WYFF reports.

Mom who had sex with son is jailed for 4 years

There's nothing as disgusting as the story below. How can a WOMAN have sex with her OWN child??? It's sooooo DISGUSTING!! The son was 16, he should have known better. There's no excuse for him either. SMH!!

A woman who made a sex tape with her teenage son after they were reunited after 15 years apart claims their relationship was not incest - but a case of 'genetic attraction'.
Mistie Rebecca Atkinson, 32, was sentenced to four years and eight months behind bars in Napa County Superior Court, California on Wednesday.
It came after she was found in a Ukiah, California motel room with the 16-year-old boy, who had recorded his mother giving him oral sex on his phone.
Atkinson had tracked down her son through Facebook after 15 years apart.

In a hand-written letter to the court, Atkinson pleaded for leniency, saying she never intended to become intimate with her biological son.

“I don’t feel like I should have the charge of incest because there is something called genetic attraction that is a very powerful (phenomenon) that happens to 50 (percent) of people becoming reunited with a long-lost relative,” she wrote in her letter to the judge.

Authorities also recovered nude photos Atkinson had sent him.

Adele's song wakes little girl up from coma

A British mom is crediting one of Adele's hits- Rolling in deep, as the catalyst that woke her little girl out of a coma.

Seven-year-old Charlotte Neve suffered a rare type of brain hemorrhage in mid-April, and slipped into a coma after two operations were performed to stop the bleeding. Doctors told her mother, Leila, that her daughter's chances didn't look good.

Teen with sleeping beauty syndrome wakes up after two months

A British teen suffering from a rare neurological disorder that induces long periods of sleep recently awoke after sleeping for two months.
"I've missed nine exams 15-year-old Stacey Comerford tells reporters. She fell asleep in April and only just woke up last week.

George Zimmerman’s jailhouse telephone recordings released

Audio recordings from phone calls George Zimmerman made while in jail in April were released today by Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey.

The six phone calls are part of the state's evidence alleging that Zimmerman and his wife, Shellie, misled the court during an April bond hearing.
Zimmerman is heard coaching his wife and sister on how to move tens of thousands of dollars donated to his legal defense fund.
During one jailhouse conversation, George Zimmerman tells his wife how much it means to him that strangers were donating to his PayPal account. "Ah man, that feels good," he said.

After his wife was able to start transferring funds, Zimmerman instructs her to pay off nearly all the couple's bills and to purchase bulletproof vests for her, him and his attorney

I don't like to judge people but I think George and his wife are sick people to say they will live great lives after this incident. Your Husband killed a 17 year old boy and all both of you keep talking about is the money you're getting from the publicity?? Really?? SMH.

Below are links Reuters posted to the jailhouse audio files and transcripts.

Texas Dad beats his 4 year old daughter's molester to death

During a social gathering last Saturday, a 4 year old girl went inside the family’s home in Shiner Texas while other members of the family were tending to horses outside. A neighbour then saw a 47-year old man (with whom the father was casually acquainted) carrying the little girl away, so he quickly alerted the girl's Father.

The 22 year old Dad started to yell out his daughter's name who in turn responded by screaming. The Dad ran to his daughter and caught the 47 year old man with his pants around his ankles about to molest his daughter, he got enraged and beat him to death.

Cops were called, but the Dad wasn't arrested because he was ONLY protecting his daughter. They said he was remorseful though when he found out the molester had died. He said he didn't mean to kill him. He only wanted to get the molester off his daughter but I guess emotion took over and he went overboard. I don't blame him though. I'd do the same thing if I was in the same position.

The sheriff’s office will defer to a grand jury to decide whether murder charges will be brought against the father or not.
