(clipped from sohh.com) Responding to reports of a shoot-out following his performance in Detroit, Jim Jones has debunked the rumors of gunfire taking place. The Byrd Gang leader also expressed his thoughts towards Trick Trick who was originally reported to have been shot. Shout-out to Detroit, Jones said in an interview with hip-hop personality Miss Info. Negative. Nah, nah nah [no shooting took place]. What did the news say? Did the news say they was a shooting? Ah man, shout-out to Trick Trick, I hope he get better. Detroit clubs are tricky. They got a lot of problems going on out there. (Miss Info) Rumors cited the involvement of a Detroit rapper who had another version of Na Na Na. Not everyone was happy with Jim Jones new song Na Na Na. There is a Detroit Rapper who had the exact song last year. Rumor is Jim Jones was jumped by 20 goons in Detroit, Michigan. Word in the streets is that last night around 2 am at Club Esko in Detroit, Jim Jones, who was about to perform, was rushed and beaten by at least 20 Detroit natives. Reports claim that three individuals were shot. (World Star Hip Hop) Trick Trick is also addressed the rumors of him being shot saying he was nowhere near the club during the alleged incident. He told WKQI-FM (95.5) on Monday morning that he was at home restin and chillin . I m at home. I ain t left this house since Saturday. Trick told WKQI s Mojo in the Morning program Monday morning. Trick said he received a concerned phone call from his mother early Monday, after she had heard a report on television that her son had been shot. After he told her he was safe at home, Trick said his mother called WDIV-TV (Channel 4) and told them to stop reporting the story. As for why he had been linked to the shooting incident that reportedly left two wounded, I m still trying to figure that out, Trick said. (Detroit News) Early reports said both Jones and Trick Trick were involved in a shooting Monday (March 16) morning. Ten men rushed the Esko Lounge on Michigan Avenue near Shelby Street, according to Detroit police. The men got into a fight with rapper Jim Jones and shots were fired. Two men were hit, including a man police identified as Christian Mathis. Local 4 confirmed Mathis was taken to the emergency room at Detroit Receiving Hospital. He is in serious condition. The other man s condition is unknown. Police are looking for the gunman.

Trick Trick Ft Eminem- Welcome to Detroit City Banks concerned over model riot the BBC Got It On Tape, Damnnn.. Amateur video captures the moment panic spread - pictures from You Tube America s Next Top Model host Tyra Banks says she is concerned after an audition for her show ended with six people injured and three arrests. Thousands of modelling hopefuls were queuing outside a hotel in Manhattan, New York, when bedlam broke out. Police cancelled the audition but could not say what had sparked the panic. Banks and the show s producer Ken Mok said: We are concerned by the events. We still don t know all the details of what triggered the incident. They added: We appreciate the efforts of the NYPD and will assist them in any way possible in this matter. Reports suggest the incident involved a man charging into the crowd in an attempt to steal handbags. Sleeping bags Clothes and shoes were abandoned in the street as women tried to escape the melee. Tyra Banks created America s Next Top Model Some of those waiting in line at the Park Central New York hotel had camped out overnight with chairs and sleeping bags to get their shot at fame. Of those injured, only two were taken to hospital, according to the New York fire department. Two women and a man were arrested on charges of inciting to riot and disorderly conduct. This 13th series of the reality show is seeking 12 finalists who are shorter than the average model, with auditions only open to those under 5ft 7ins. Fronted by supermodel Banks, it is broadcast on CW in the US and Living in the UK. US capital blighted by HIV/Aids City authorities say they are fighting the problem with vigour (bbc news) The US capital is suffering an epidemic of HIV/Aids worse than some African nations, with 3% of over-12s infected, the city s department of health says. Its report suggests the hardest-hit sections of the population are black men, and people aged between 40 and 49. The infection rate puts Washington DC on a par with Uganda. But one factor may be a drive towards more HIV/Aids testing, and the city government insists much is now being done to tackle the problem. According to the report, both the United Nations and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have historically defined an HIV epidemic as generalised and severe when the overall percentage of disease among residents of a specific geographic area exceeds 1%. I think we re seeing the increase recently because the new director of our HIV/Aids administration here in Washington has put a large push for everyone to get tested Dr Raymond Martins Whitman-Walker clinic The overall proportion in the District is three times higher, the report says. By comparison, less than half of 1% of Americans are living with cancer. Even the 3% figure, the report says, is certain to be an underestimate, as so many of Washington s residents are unaware that they are infected. In the District, nearly every population group and age is experiencing a substantial epidemic, the report says, with the greatest rates of infection among black men (6.5%), Hispanic men (3.0%), and white men (2.6%). In terms of age, those aged 40-49 are the worst affected (7.2%), followed by those aged 50-59 (5.2%). The main mode of transmission is men having sex with men, followed by heterosexual sex and infection through drug use. Actually 5% The chief medical officer at the Whitman-Walker clinic, one of Washington s biggest HIV organisations, told the BBC that the real figure could be even higher. When they ve tested large groups of the District population it looks like the prevalence is actually about 5%, which is higher than the 3% but a lot of the people haven t been tested yet, said Dr Raymond Martins. I think we re seeing the increase recently because the new director of our HIV/Aids administration here in Washington has put a large push for everyone to get tested and so with that testing you re discovering all these people that are HIV-positive that didn t realise they were. The report says the city s Mayor Adrian Fenty and the department are following a three-pronged strategy to tackle the epidemic, by promoting testing for the virus, preventing transmission by providing free condoms and needle exchanges, and doing more for those already living with HIV/Aids. Bristol Palin has dumped her babydaddy, for what ? apparently he does t even know. he says in the interview that he thinks they both just need to do a lil growin up. We Agree Kids.. So Stop Makin Babies. Palin daughter splits from fiance Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin had been dating for three years (bbc news) Bristol Palin, the 18-year-old daughter of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, has split from her fiance, Levi Johnston. Miss Palin s pregnancy by Mr Johnston, 19, made headlines shortly after Sarah Palin was named as John McCain s running mate in last year s elections. The couple s son, Tripp Johnston, was born in December. Mr Johnston told Associated Press (AP) that the couple had mutually decided a while ago to end their three-year relationship. Speaking outside his family s home in Wasilla, north of Anchorage, Mr Johnston said some speculation about the break-up, circulating on the internet, had been inaccurate. In a statement issued through Sarah Palin s political action committee, Miss Palin said she had been devastated by some media intrusion into their relationship. Unfortunately, my family has seen many people say and do many things to cash in on the Palin name, said the statement. Sometimes that greed clouds good judgment and the truth. Sarah Palin s spokesman, Bill McAllister, declined to comment on the break-up. Talking point The Alaska governor revealed her daughter s pregnancy - and engagement - just days after being named as the Republican vice-presidential candidate by John McCain. Mrs Palin is a social conservative who is opposed to abortion and the pregnancy became a talking point during the campaign. In December, Mrs Palin said that her daughter and Mr Johnston were committed to accomplish what millions of other young parents have accomplished, to provide a loving and secure environment for their child. Bristol Palin said in an interview with Fox News last month that Mr Johnston saw the baby every day and described him as a hands-on father. The couple had said they were considering a summer wedding. Michael Jackson O2 Arena Performances Announcement Michael Jackson has done it again. he comes back with a bang ! selling out 50 straight shows ? how is this possible from a man who can no longer sing. is he using his sisters formula to achieve tour success. book a shitload of dates, and cancel them one by one unti it s apparent you only wanted the money from the first 3. wowww.. Michael Jackson tickets sell out Fans on a cold night queuing for tickets Tickets for Michael Jackson s 50-date residency at the O2 arena in London have completely sold out, organisers have confirmed. Hundreds of fans queued at the venue as tickets went on sale to the public and over a quarter of a million people queued online. Around 750,000 fans have bought tickets to see the veteran pop star. Tickets sold at a rate of around 11 per second, promoters said - when they went on sale to the public on Friday. Some 360,000 tickets were sold to registered fans before sales opened on Friday morning. Organisers say the This Is It tour has become the fastest-selling in history, with people from as far away as Japan, Belgium and Dubai queuing up to purchase their tickets. Jackson is said to be thrilled by the response. Tickets for Jackson s gigs are already being sold on eBay Have Your Say: Have you managed to get Michael Jackson tickets? Randy Phillips of promoters AEG Live told BBC Radio 1 s Newsbeat a pre-registration scheme had been so successful he asked Jackson himself if he would do more dates. That wasn t anticipated, he said. We never thought 50 shows and frankly based on the queues on Ticketmaster, plus the 300,000 registrants we still haven t issued codes to, we could spend two years here. Mike asked me how long he would be in the United Kingdom for and I told him, probably long enough to get a British passport. Michael s already pretty much put together a list of the dancers he wants. Michael s very engaged now. Ticketmaster s director, Chris Edmonds, said: We often talk about unprecedented demand, but this week we have witnessed a live entertainment phenomenon. This was undoubtedly the busiest demand for tickets for an event which we have ever experienced. Pre-sale tickets for Jackson s first 10 dates sold out on Tuesday but some fans complained of technical problems trying to register online. Online auction Tickets for the Jackson shows are already being sold on the online auction website eBay. Prices on the site range from £170 to £10,000, but tickets bought directly from the singer s website or Ticketmaster cost up to £75. Jackson, who has won 13 Grammy awards, has said this will be the last time he will perform in the UK. In August and September 2007, Prince played 21 concerts at the O2 arena together with a number of after-shows at its club venue, Indigo. Racist Don Imus Old Fuckry; has nutcancer. like I read earlier, KARMA IS YO MAMA . it just seems so appropriate Kanye West Admits To Getting His Style From Gay People! Jacky Jasper says Kanye has come out of the closet  - he s apparently confused. W O W ! kayne west gay accusations revealed Kanye West Say’s, He is Bi-Sexual!!!! (clipped from diaryofahollywoodstreetking.com) We recently suggested to Kanye that he take his nude photoshoot to the next level. That he should pose with a few bitches, maybe white chics or throw an Asian piece in the mix. That he should definitely use dildos and employ as much kink as possible. Mr. West decided to trump our suggestions and come straight OUT THE CLOSET! In an interview with writer David Watts for KING magazine, West said that he may produce a softcore porn movie as a companion piece to his new disc 808 they don’t contract.

My Common Sense, has finally become Common.. That My Friends Is NOT an Oxymoron.. Warm Hugs, and Huge Congrats To Erykah Badu on a Safe Delivery of a Daughter at home, While Twittering; No Drugs with a Midwife. You Go Earth Mama ! Annie Don t Wear No Panties - Erykah Badu BADU The Fierce - Twitters; While Giving Birth to a Daughter Erykah Badu twitters while giving birth Posted by Chris Matyszczyk (CNET.com) I wrote that headline several minutes ago and still a faintly uncomfortable feeling wafts through my main functional channels. Erykah Badu, one of the world s finest and most moving singers, is so in love with Twitter that, even in the latter stages of a home birth just a couple of days ago, she tweeted while she squeezed. She began the morning on her blog, touchingly entitled fatbellybella with the lovely greeting: Morning, I m in labor. But when her fingers became otherwise engaged, she let her man, the rapper Jay Electronica, take over. Alright, it was fairly innocuous stuff. For example: Labor has begun. Everybody stand back. No hospitals. No doctors. No medicine. We re waiting for the midwife to show. But all I take from that is the phrase everybody stand back. Will that be Erykah s new album? Will it be infused with soulful baby gurglings? Why should we stand back? Were there more intimate descriptions to come? Yes, there were. Jay detailed the breaking of the waters and the depth of the dilations. Please, I want to be deeply involved in every new phenomenon. And I know that every one of Erykah s 4,500 followers was positively drinking in her breaking waters. This is an Erykah Badu concert in Tel Aviv. I do not believe the image on the screen is from a home birth. (Credit: CC Ray V Tal) But if one becomes an object of twitterdom, how much is it polite to reveal? Ought one tweet one s visits to the latrine? One s less than legal thoughts when a cyclist goes through a stop sign? One s methods of disposing of boogers? One s feelings about certain brands of underwear being luckier than others? Has anyone at Twitter created a charter for this? Guidance is surely needed before the FCC gets involved. (Anyone know if Janet Jackson is a twitterer?) Erykah herself seems to have a strong handle on her Twitter decorum: anything goes. She has, allegedly, created a permanent living and breathing monument to Twitter by naming the newborn Twitty Milk. You may think she is joking. However, her first two kids are called Seven Sirius (fathered by Andre 3000 from Outkast) and Puma Sabti (fathered by rapper D.O.C). Erykah Badu Names Third Child ‘Twitty Milk’ Posted on February 3rd, 2009 by Spicy (Celebrity Smack) Erykah Badu and baby daddy Jay Electronica welcomed a baby girl into the world Sunday. It was Badu’s third child and Electronica’s first. Throughout the labor, the couple sent tweets (updates) on social networking site Twitter, keeping Badu’s 4500 followers in the know. Electronica updated Badu’s Twitter page, “Labor has begun. Everybody stand back. No hospitals. No doctors. No medicine. We’re waiting for the midwife to show.” The baby was born in their Brooklyn home. As you might figure, Ms. Badu loves Twitter. So much so, that I think she named her baby after it. Introducing…get this…Twitty Milk. Yes, that is the poor baby girl’s name! But it rhymes with Titty Milk! You can’t do that! Shouldn’t there be a law against this sort of thing? That poor couple in Sweden (or wherever) weren’t allowed to name their kid Metallica, but we have Erykah Badu naming her kid Titty Milk! Egad! Heh. Really, it’s nothing unusual for Erykah whose other children are named Puma, 7, (father, D.O.C.) and Seven, 10 (father, Andre 3000). These are the Dweezil and Moon Zappas of our time! But I’ll take Moon over Twitty Milk anyday! WARNING * turn the sound off because this is torture; not a soundtrack, seriously.

Nude Camel Toe Condi Rice Says Race is Still An Issue Now without a doubt some of you are saying to yourselves right now, What the  (. fill in the blank.) ? Yeeeeeeaaahhhhh  (like Lil Jon) we got it cookin up in heah on a tuesday.  we have to wrap the year up with some trash, so why not start out with some nice photoshopping.  we are big fans of the Sec of State. So Today We re presenting her view in a Compromising Position. only twist is of course, We re Adding Our Own Pix. but to us the best comes last - Babsy Grange  - Jamaicas Information Chief was Spoofed by some MSN Crooks. She Was Stupid enough to SEND THEM HER ACCOUNT INFO. DUHHHHHHHHH.. Enjoy a Lil Hot Rice on a Tuesday,, By POD313 URL: Rice Says Race is Still An Issue Barack Obama’s election was a key moment in history, but we’re kidding ourselves if we think America is now blind to race, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said in a CBS “Sunday Morning” interview. AIDS TEST FOR BACK ROAD HOOKERS JA Star Prostitutes along Port-more s unofficial red-light district, the popular Port Henderson Road also known as Back road, will be tested for HIV/Aids and other sexually transmitted infections, THE PORTMORE STAR has learnt. Portmore mayor Keith Hinds said he will be teaming up with the police and representatives from the Ministry of Health to visit the district and conduct the tests sometime in the future. Mayor Hinds said that he is concerned about the prevalence of female prostitutes in the area. While I want Port Henderson Road to become a hip strip, I don t like certain activities currently happening around there, he said. He said residents from both Portmore and the Corporate Area are at risk for HIV/AIDS because many of these ladies of the night s clients are from these areas. COPS LIE IN WAIT Meanwhile, the Portmore police said they are ready and waiting for the mayor to call them for any operation along the Back Road. We have done a number of operations on Port Henderson Road and persons have been arrested for various offences, including operating a club contrary to their licences, and several guns have been seized and motorists charged for traffic offences, an officer said. CHURCH IN DEN OF SIN (JA Star) The Delano Avenue branch of the Church of Christ is located in what some would describe as a den of sin. The church is flanked by a motel and a strip club off Hagley Park road, St Andrew. Although this could be a source of contention, the parties have so far managed to co-exist in somewhat of a harmonious fashion. The church was established more than 20 years ago, but recently, these establishments have set up shop along the avenue, bringing to the area persons seeking something other than salvation. Major problem Peter Brown, assistant pastor of the church, told THE STAR that the church once had a major problem with the strip club as its music would often disturb services and meetings. He however admitted that this has not been the case for sometime and the owner has been considerate. He however added that there was still some discomfort. Brown said, We do have a problem because we don t feel comfortable knowing that these practices are going on nearby. On one and two nights, you know the go-go club is there, so some of the girls will come outside in theirpanties and that type of behaviour, and we don t really appreciate that. And you know people will say things like since it s a church why is there a motel and a strip club nearby. He said those in the church try to spread the word to the club s patrons and visitors. We try to talk to dem and encourage dem to be a part of the church, but it s not so convincing, he said. As far as the noise though, they realise that we don t like it and they try not to play it so loud, especially on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays when we have our services. The owner also told us that he would talk to his workers, so they wouldn t play as loud when we have our worship. He said no one has been turned off from attending the church because of its location. When THE STAR contacted the owner of the club, he said the church usually calls and complains if the music is too loud. He added however that this has not happened for a while. He said, Mi mek sure when dem a play dem turn di music low and there are times when dem have dem service, dat mi tell dem fi turn it down or turn it off. He said he has even gone as far as to erect a notice in his music room, so new selectors can be made aware of the situation. As it relates to girls parading near the church, he told THE STAR that he is hardly at the establishments and has no knowledge of that. He said he offered to purchase the church and help them to relocate but the offer was not met with much agreement. He added, Di problem is seh di pastor live dere too. But mi all offer fi sound proof di pastor room, an mi nuh memba wha im did seh. He told THE STAR that in the past, he has also offered to pay for the pastor and his wife to spend the night at ahotel, if they are disturbed by the music. FAKE CASH FLOODS Kingston JA Police in downtown, Kingston, said they are extremely concerned about the circulation of counterfeit notes in the commercial district. Special Inspector Joseph Donaldson of the Darling Street police, said based on police intelligence it is suspected that a group of persons are responsible for an upsurge in the number of the fake notes discovered over the past three weeks. A man told us that another man was trying to recruit him to buy goods with some fake notes, had about 20 of them, the Special Inspector explained to THE STAR recently. SIMILAR CONCERN Checks by THE STAR also found that shoppers and vendors within the area share a concern similar to that of the police. Yea man dem a gwaan bad inna di Christmas ya, mi haffi a keep mi eye dem open wide wide Wa day ya dem ketch mi wid bout four different one hundred dolla, vendor Iris Graham, 43, said. Another vendor Lloyd Hunt said, More time mi woulda tek all a five bills (a $500 note) and jus pocket it, mi cyaa run dem risk deh now cause a whole heap a people a get trick, when mi get dem mi look pon dem all 50 different time. One shopper who overheard the conversation with Hunt then added, Afta a nuh di seller dem alone a get trick, we di buyers dem get ketch more time to..Mi know quite a few people whe get ketch..Wi haffi a get extra careful cause it look like a nuff fake money deh ya. As such, the police are urging persons to be on the lookout for notes bearing the serial numbers; F2752256, Fb904049 and LL049145. The first serial number was found on fake $500 notes while the other two were seen on fake $1000 notes. Who Is The Blackest Player In The NBA? Defining a game style and a state of mind by Claude Johnson, claudejohnson@blackfives.com CONNECTICUT This is a tough one. And I’m not going to make it any easier by defining what “black” means. You decide. Is it a color?  A skill?  An attitude? A lifestyle?  A playing style?  A race?  A culture?  A music?  An ethnicity?  A dialect? A gene?  A jean? If there is “black” then is there black, blacker, and blackest? Is there light-black, black, and dark-black? Is there not-so-black, black, and very black? Does the blackest player have the blackest game? But I want to take it further. So, follow the logic with me for a minute. Of course a black player can have a black game.  Allen Iverson, let’s say.  Check. And a non-black player can have a non-black game.  Maybe Kirk Hinrich?  Check. And a non-black player can have a black game (i.e., Jason “White Chocolate” Williams). O.K., check. And a black player can have a non-black game (i.e., Tim “Big Fundamental” Duncan).  O.K., check. Meanwhile a black player can be non-black (i.e., Tim Duncan).  I guess, check. And a non-black player can be black (i.e., Jason Williams).  O.K., check. Which logically leads me to ask, can a non-black player remain non-black but have a black game?  Can’t think of anyone today … maybe Steve Nash?  Could this have been Larry Bird? And … can a black player remain black but have a non-black game?  Can’t think of anyone today, but could this have been someone like a Dennis Rodman?  Charles Oakley? Which naturally leads to the question, can a non-black player be black but have a non-black game?  Can’t think of anyone today. And … can a black player be non-black but have a black game?  Is this Barack Obama (he’s honorary N.B.A., I think, since he’s Baller In Chief)? Are you following this?  My guess is that, yes, you are! But that’s scary!  Because there’s a profound silliness here. I’m inspired by Bethlehem Shoals over at the intellectually fascinating and zany basketball blog FreeDarko.com.  He spent about a week contemplating which player has the most “Jewish” game in the N.B.A. Which, it was concluded, was different from asking, who is the most Jewish player? The answer, of course, is Who cares?! But they had a lot of fun with it, and Bethlehem Shoals is Jewish.  So why can’t I do the same thing and have some fun over here? The fact is, we brought this on ourselves, by overusing and misusing the word “black.” I do it too.  The way it’s used in the term “Black Fives” is to designate a race, or rather, the label that people often use to describe “people of color,” or, more accurately, people of African descent. I could have named all of this “African American Fives” or “Fives Of Color” or “Fives Of African Descent” but it wouldn’t have been the same at all. We’re programmed and conditioned a certain way.  And while we may acknowledge that we are, it still doesn’t mean we must be slaves to that conditioning and programming. One way to do that, is to have fun with it. So, how do you use the word “black”? Who is the blackest player in the N.B.A. by how you see it? Johnny chopped to death In Jamaica, Justice can be served quite spontaneously, in an Adhoc Fashion; by the community. Di Man Mus Know he was on Short Time and Dangerous Ground Rasbert Turner, JA Star Writer spanish town jm A man who is said to be a nuisance in St Catherine was yesterday chopped to death by residents after he was allegedly caught breaking into the house of a senior citizen. The man, known to the Old Harbour police as Johnny , was recently released from prison. He was chopped to death about 7a.m. yesterday by disgruntled residents of Rhoden Pen near Old Harbour. The police told The Star that they have been getting complaints that Johnny has been involving himself in several criminal acts including burglary, assault and sexual offences. Several residents attested to what was reported to The Star and declared that they will have a better Christmas because Johnny only chooses to break into the houses of elderly folks and young girls whom he often times rapes. In the meanwhile they told The Star that their only regret is that his accomplices are still on the loose. Detectives from the St Catherine South Homicide Unit are conducting investigations to ascertain the circumstances surrounding Johnny s death. Boy found with possible cross dressers for court Rasbert Turner, Star Writer  - JA Star Spanish Town JM A 15-year-old boy who was held yesterday at a house with four adult men will face the Children s Court as a juvenile in need of care and protection, thepolice said. THE STAR learnt that sometime after 11 a.m., a police party got information of the five men behaving strangely at a house in Old Harbour, St Catherine. A raid was conducted and a number of women clothings, including bikinis, wigs,stockings and pictures of men dressed as women, were seen. The cops say that the adults could not properly explain why the juvenile was at the dwelling and they were only able to ascertain that he is from St James and is not related to the other occupants. Inspector Lanford Salmon of the Old Harbour police said they have released three of the adults since they were taken in for questioning. The juvenile is being held to appear in court and in the meanwhile we are going to try and find his parents or guardian. One of the adult also remained with us, as he is facing a charge of possession of ganja, the inspector said. The police claim that they have been on high alert after a 12-year-old boy was abducted by men recently. He was taken to a section of Free Town, Clarendon, where he was buggered. Babsy Grange s MSN account Spoofed (Bwoy Mi Haffi Seh Dis - She a fi di information chief, she supposedly is incharge of security of the Jamaican Governments Online Documents and this is wha.. She Was Stupid enough to SEND THEM HER ACCOUNT INFO. DUHHHHHHHHH.. She isn t secure in using her own account, let alone doing the business of the government. Time For Babsy to Done. Low Her Now) Internet hacker(s) gained access to the MSN e-mail account (Hotmail) of  Jamaican information minister Olivia Babsy Grange on Sunday and attempted to scam money from more than 500 contacts in the minister s database. While the attempt was not successful, this was the second MSN e-mail scam attempt of this kind as Newstalk 93 FM disc jockey Tony Gallimore also had a similar experience earlier this month. Speaking with THE STAR yesterday, Grange said the hacker(s) gained access to her e-mail after she responded to a prompting she received while using her Hotmail account. I was going through my mail on Sunday and a message popped up saying that MSN was shutting down and I needed to send in my account details to verify my account and keep it active, the minister said. I was locked out of my e-mail after I sent in that information. Minister Grange said the mail started circulating shortly afterwards as contacts from all over the world started calling her to validate the authenticity of the message. Soft loan An excerpt from the mail, similar to the one that was sent out after Gallimore s e-mail was hacked, read: How are you doing? hope all is well with you and family, I am sorry that I didn t inform you about my travelling to England for a programme called Empowering youth to fight racism, HIV/AIDS and lack ofeducation. I need a favour from you a soft loan urgently with the sum of $2,500 to sort-out my hotel bills and get myself back home, let me know if you can be of help so that I can send you the details to use when sending the money through western union. The information minister said that one contact came close to falling for the scam. That individual called another friend to ascertain what currency the money should be sent in, as the e-mail, while stating the Babsy was in England, did not ask for pound sterling. Minister Grange said the matter was not reported to the police but noted that she was in dialogue with MSN.com, which promised to investigate the hacking. Persons are being warned to exercise caution if asked for their e-mail account details (username and password) on any website while browsing the Internet. Hackers often create these prompting to obtain account details and later control the accounts, locking out the original owner. © admin for BadGalsRadio - RootsRock since 99', 2008. | Permalink | No comment | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: african american fives, babsy grange, Bailout, black, buggered, Cameltoe Condi, church, Condi, Condi in a Thong, counterfeit money, cross dressers, gay men, hacking, hoe stroll, homosexuals, internet ignorance, jamaica, kingston, machete, male gay prostitutes, men loving men, motel, nba, prostitutes, prostitution, rapist, sex club, Sexy Condi, strip club, strippers

MicroCHIPS is looking to alleviate that with a new device that s implanted under the skin of a patient. The “chip,” about the size of a dime, senses changes in body chemistry and releases medicine when needed. It can also be remotely activated to drop medication as well. The chip is much more precise than the finger pricking method for monitoring blood, and in diabetes sufferers, can minimize the risk of complications like blindness and kidney failure. The first glucose-monitoring and osteoporosis drug-releasing chips will begin human clinical trials next year. MicroCHIPS is looking into developing more advanced versions that can predict heart or kidney failure, biodegrade in the body, and release multiple vaccine or drug doses over time.

Luckily, the account was old and out-of-use, there s no indication that email records, voicemails or call contents were monitored, and at the very most the employees only got to see billing records, according to Verizon Wireless CEO Lowell McAdam. Oh yeah, and the employees are now fired. PERSONAL CELL PHONE ACCOUNT OF PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA ACCESSED BY UNAUTHORIZED EMPLOYEES BASKING RIDGE, N.J. – Verizon Wireless President and CEO Lowell McAdam made the following statement today: This week we learned that a number of Verizon Wireless employees have, without authorization, accessed and viewed President-Elect Barack Obama s personal cell phone account. The account has been inactive for several months. The device on the account was a simple voice flip-phone, not a BlackBerry or other smartphone designed for e-mail or other data services. All employees who have accessed the account – whether authorized or not – have been put on immediate leave, with pay. As the circumstances of each individual employee s access to the account are determined, the company will take appropriate actions. Employees with legitimate business needs for access will be returned to their positions, while employees who have accessed the account improperly and without legitimate business justification will face appropriate disciplinary action.

Driving Miss Obama.. well if these car companies don t get a bail out soon - what s gonna be driving Miss Obama to school ? and what about Mrs. Obama ?  what s gonna be ferrying her about her daily duties in dc ? if not the Ford Box; (that s King Bui s name for the Ford Flex - he says it s looks like a box)  are they bringing theirs from home when they move on up ? I know they have those special limo s, but I mean co mon, lets get real here.. O-man, the campaign promoted flex fuel and flex fuel vehicles; so show us you mean it and save some petrol. Lead By Example in This Government;  this is why we believe in Change, cause its gonna happen.. if you make it happen as part year residents only 3 miles from the headquarters of gm, we re really interested in hearing all about the bailout.  we know what the aig and wall st bail outs brought - happy days at an arizona spa for lot of happy executives. we d just like to see our tired autoworkers be able to go home at night without wondering when they are gonna loose their jobs, houses and vehicles. many of these folks helped make this change; do it for those you promised a good life to Shrub.. and You Too Mr O-Man. We re Depending On Ya, Really Doh ! Here in the Motortown , as we re affectionately refered to by Mr Mandela; we need to hear some reassurances on our statement of financial fitness; as things are pretty dim right now. winter is hardly started and today the news reports said there wouldn t be enough salt, or gas to keep the roads clean through the entire winter season - what are they talking about ? this whole region is ontop of a Salt Mine - and there are Refinery s that dot the freeways in this area.  so why will there be a shortage ?  no tax dollars to pay for the Gas and Salt to keep the highways clean and safe.  Are You Starting to see what interconnected problems we re approaching here My Presidents.. this is no joke, no sir ree bob. King Bui tonight labeled them post bailout already - with the pronouncements of them being renamed to Government Motors and Federal Motors; he had no words for Chrysler. I added Crying Motors; cause they always cryin, and broke.  incidentially where is Lee Iacocca when you really need him. somebody get snoop-dogg on the phone, I know he knows where big pimpin is.. the Auto industry is so much a part of the US financial picture; that to let it fail, would be catastrophic. it s estimated that for each job directly lost at the automakers, there are 6 jobs lost in the supplier industries. lest we forget, you need folks to make the radios, seats, and repair those vehicles once they are purchased. Auto Insurance is the biggest segment of the insurance picture; so without those cars, that industry will also be soon seeking a bailout - and what of the skrippers, coney island folks, gas stations;  jiffylube,; kfc; party stores, grocery stores; payless shoes; and of course red lobster and ihop; they depend on these workers to help keep them afloat. even mickey d s will take a hit if the big three go under. we didn t even mention the farmers and producers who supply these stores with their products for these workers to purchase. is it getting clearer to you as a picture now ??  we live in a circular economy, and it is going to experience a domino like crash if something does t stem the momentum of collapse. recession is in full swing, no doubt, but a depression; we need to avoid that at all costs. I personally don t wanna see Miss Obama being Driven anywhere in anything except an American product, and with that said, I m issuing this proclaimation as Queen of Lutaloland; and Empress of ASID - Our Miss Obamas will not be driven in any product not manufactured in Their Homeland By Their Fellow North Americans. Flex Fuel Development Credits aside, the auto manufacturers need a stabilization package, like yesterday. so listen here folks in DC, do not test me on this one. I will make it rain, on both your parades if you do - Bail out the Auto Companies Right Now. either do it, or your next presidents will be the team of Pelosi and Clinton. Think I m Kiddin - just go ahead and test me, because I want everybody to know that I - Mama ASID will go into my kitchen and cook up the hottest gumbo these mouths will ever taste, and then they will have nothing but time whilst they enjoy the Halo or Holiness; while considering how they Will Be Driving Miss Obama. Nuff Said, so Shrub and O-Man Get This Done, cause I want Miss Obama s Ford Boxes delivered before 1/17/09. (in the words of bounty killer) Hol Dat ! Bush, Obama camps clash over aid for ailing auto makers PAUL KORING From Wednesday s Globe and Mail November 12, 2008 at 5:12 AM EST WASHINGTON — Gridlock has stalled the President and his successor over the issue of spending tens of billions of dollars to make America s battered auto makers roadworthy again. Yesterday, both camps were digging in to their separate positions on the issue. President George W. Bush and president-elect Barack Obama have policy differences, but that doesn t mean they re not both interested in helping improve the economy for the benefit of American citizens, White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said yesterday. Mr. Obama and Mr. Bush, the Oval Office s lame-duck occupant, apparently failed yesterday to agree on when or how to structure a big bailout of the auto makers. Mr. Obama, echoing leading congressional Democrats, wants the Bush administration to funnel already approved funds to car manufacturers. He apparently told Mr. Bush as much during a private, hour-long Oval Office meeting on Monday. But Mr. Bush wants congressional Democrats to explicitly authorize the tens of billions of dollars the big car makers say they need to avert bankruptcy. We have gone as far as we can, Ms. Perino said, referring to the bailout funds already authorized. If [auto makers] believe that that s not enough for them, they need to continue to work with Democrats, and then we ll see what they can come forward with. The White House denied reports that it was linking help for the auto makers - which Mr. Obama wants to deliver to save hundreds of thousands of high-paying manufacturing jobs in unionized Democratic strongholds - to winning the next president s backing for Mr. Bush s last free-trade pact, a deal with Colombia, which increasingly protectionist Democrats don t want. They also oppose it because union leaders have been targeted for killings in Colombia. In no way did the President suggest that there was a quid pro quo, Ms. Perino said. Mr. Obama s transition team also denied that any quid pro quo was raised, and discounted reports of any tension with the White House. But both the President and the man who will replace him were clearly jockeying for advantage behind the public façade of an amicable working visit and the first extended conversation between the two. Yesterday, aides to Mr. Obama said he wants to name a prominent czar to oversee any bailout and transformation of the auto industry. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi warned that the collapse of any of the Big Three car makers would have a devastating impact. During his election campaign, Mr. Obama made sweeping promises to save and transform the auto industry. He promised to direct billions in tax credits and subsidies to the industry so new fuel-efficient cars can be built in the U.S. by American workers rather than overseas and [to] ensure that American workers will build the high-demand cars of the future. But salvaging a domestic industry already eclipsed by Toyota and other foreign manufacturers, especially during a recession, may be politically costly as well as financially expensive. The Big Three - all of which have extensive operations in Canada - are hemorrhaging cash. General Motors Corp. may run out of money as early as next month and its stock price is at a half-century low. GM, along with Ford Motor Co., Chrysler LLC and the United Auto Workers have jointly asked for $50-billion from government - half to stave off industry collapse while they retool and half to go to the union s fund for retiree health care. Democrats want money from the $700-billion bailout package for financial firms to be channelled to the auto industry. The Bush administration says it can t do that because the money was specifically earmarked for financial firms, not industrial giants. Only the $25-billion set aside for loans to develop fuel-efficient cars is available, the current administration says. We understand that they re going through a very difficult time, Ms. Perino said. There s been business decisions they ve made over the years that have led to this situation. Independent analysts say as many as three million U.S. jobs could be lost if the big auto makers collapse, making their rescue a political imperative for the president-elect. Democratic Senator Carl Levin of Michigan says he will propose legislation for the coming lame-duck session of Congress to free up funds for the auto makers. © admin for BadGalsRadio - RootsRock since 99', 2008. | Permalink | No comment | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: 43, 44, aig, auto company bailout, chrysler, detroit, economy, flex fuel vehicles, Ford Flex, ford motor co, general motors, George Bush, hillary clinton, lee iacocca, michigan, Miss Obama, Mrs Obama, nancy pelosi, President, president obama, snoop dogg, vice president
