Feds: School bomb plotter wanted to kill Jesus??!

FLORENCE, South Carolina (AP) -- A teen accused of plotting to blow up his high school told police that he wanted to die, go to heaven and kill Jesus, federal authorities said Tuesday.


Ryan Schallenberger, 18, is cooperating with the bomb plot investigation, police say.

Prosecutors argued in a federal courtroom that the statements are an indication that 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger needs a psychological evaluation.

The straight-A Chesterfield High School senior was arrested April 19 and faces several state and federal charges, including attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction. That charge carries a possible life sentence if he is convicted.

"His conduct is bizarre," prosecutor Buddy Bethea told Judge Thomas Rogers III, who did not immediately issue a ruling. "I think it screams out in his conduct that he be evaluated."

Defense attorney Bill Nettles said the request was premature, and that Schallenberger was competent to help in his defense.

Prosecutors want Schallenberger, currently at Chesterfield County jail, moved to a federal facility because they think he may try to commit suicide. His journal writings have become increasingly violent over the past year, prosecutor Rose Mary Parham said.

An agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives testified that the teen told a sheriff he wanted to die after his arrest.

"He said death was better than life," Craig Townsend said. "He told the sheriff he wanted to die and go to heaven and once he got there, he wanted to kill Jesus."

Jeremiah Wright Speaks Out...All Over!

There has been so much controversy on Rev. Wright, that I thought you should hear all the recent comments for yourself.  What do you think? Do you think he should of stayed quiet or spoke out?

REV. WRIGHT ANSWERS QUESTIONS: PART 1, 2, & 3

Music 360: Hip-Hop's Negative Influence on Playoffs! JAY-Z OFFICIALLY ENTERS DESHAWN/LEBRON FEUD

*The Washington Wizards are preparing to fight for their playoff lives tonight in a do-or-die Game Five against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The battle, however, will not just be on the basketball court. 

      A pre-series beef between the Wizards' DeShawn Stevenson and the Cavs' LeBron James took a left turn through rapper Soulja Boy in Game Three and has now landed in the lap of Jay-Z.

      The drama began before Game One with Stevenson calling James "overrated."  James responded: "With DeShawn Stevenson, it's kind of funny. It's almost like Jay-Z [responding to a negative comment] made by Soulja Boy. It doesn't make sense." The Cavs went on to win the first two games of the series in Cleveland.

      For Game Three in Washington, Stevenson tracked down Soulja Boy and sat him courtside to heckle James. The Wizards win by a huge margin.

      Leading up to tonight's Game Five, Jay-Z has responded with a dis track against Stevenson. Borrowing the beat and title of Too Short's "Blow the Whistle," Jigga raps: "Ask my n*gga LeBron / we so big we ain't gotta respond / When you talking to a don / Please have respect like you talking to your mom." 

       LeBron's teammate Damon Jones reportedly had local club DJs play Jay-Z's track while adding his own anti-Stevenson rhymes.  Upon hearing about the track and Jones' freestyles, Wizards player Caron Butler brought it to Stevenson's attention.       

       "He says he has a lot of swag, but I don't think that's something to do," Stevenson said of James. "This is basketball. I'm not worried about the song. I'm not worried about what he did. But for Damon Jones to get on the mic. And I heard he was saying foul stuff about me and stuff like that, they're taking it beyond basketball to me."       

       Stevenson added: "Everybody is saying the bad things that I'm saying nationally, but they don't understand why I'm mad. That stuff doesn't come out. I'd rather be the bad guy. People think I'm going at him, but they don't see the little stabs that he's doing."       

       "When I had Soulja Boy here. It was on the court," Stevenson said. "It was nothing disrespecting him or his family or even foul language."       

       As for Jay-Z's contribution to the situation, Stevenson said: "Jay-Z is a legend. He'll go down in history. No disrespect to Jay-Z. I take it as a compliment. I like his music. I like everything he does. I would never go at a legend."

POLITICS: OBAMA IS OUTRAGED

Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., spoke at a news conference in Winston-Salem, N.C., Tuesday, about the latest assertion by his former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. “I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened by the spectacle that we saw yesterday,” Obama said and added that WRIGHT’S COMMENTS do not accurately portray the perspective of the black church.

“Rev. Wright does not speak for me. He does not speak for our campaign. I cannot prevent him from continuing to make these outrageous remarks, but what I do want him to be very clear about, as well as all of you and the American people, is that when I say I find these comments appalling, I mean it. It contradicts everything that I’m about and who I am and anybody who has worked with me, who knows my life, who has read my books, who has seen what this campaign’s about, I think will understand that it is completely opposed to what I stand for and where I want to take this country.”

The World Is Cold Blooded: Actor Gary Dourdan

This was a very talented actor, and it saddens me to hear this. Recently I heard that he left CSI because of an "on-going problem", but I had no idea this was it. I really pray that he gets it together...

CSI actor Gary Dourdan was arrested in Palm Springs on Monday on suspicion of possessing heroin.
Oh, yeah, he was also busted for cocaine possession.
AND ecstasy possession!
AND prescription drugs!!!!!
The actor was asleep in his car at 5:21 AM when law enforcement approached his vehicle and arrested him.
Dourdan was taken to the Palm Springs jail. He was bailed out on $5,000 and is now roaming the streets.

OPRAH'S TOM CRUISE SECRETS REVEALED: Interview to include questions about Scientology and Matt Lauer in addition to the couch jumping

I told ya'll they were gonna be comparing notes!:

*Someone attending a Las Vegas taping of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" over the weekend defied orders from producers and told a news outlet about Winfrey's own account of her interview with Tom Cruise, which is due to air in two parts on Friday and May 5.
During the taping at Caesars Palace, a Harpo staffer hit the stage and asked audience members not to repeat anything they were about to see or hear. They were even made to repeat several times in unison, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."
But one member of the audience apparently buckled and ran to E! Online, who reported Monday that Winfrey told the audience that her Cruise interview included questions about Scientology, his contentious interview with Matt Lauer on the "Today" show and, of course, the infamous couch-jumping incident.
The first of the two-part Cruise one-on-one has already taken place at his estate in Telluride, Colo., Winfrey said. "Oprah said Tom gave her a ride on a snowmobile," the audience member recounted. "She also said Katie and Suri were there for the interview, too."
As previously reported, the Telluride segment is set to air Friday. Then on May 5, Cruise will be interviewed by Winfrey at her studio in Chicago. Meanwhile, the Vegas episode feturing Tina Turner and Cher is scheduled to air May 8.

Judge Orders All Whites Out of Courtroom To Privately Scold Black Perpetrators!!

ATLANTA -- Judge Marvin Arrington insists he's not a racist; despite ordering white lawyers out of his courtroom on Thursday.
The Fulton County Superior Court judge said he was just fed up seeing a parade of young black defendants in his courtroom.
"I came out and saw the defendants, about 99.9 percent Afro-Americans, and some point time I excused some of the lawyers, most of them white, and said to the young people in here 'What in the world are you doing with your lives,'" he told WSB-TV Channel 2 reporter JaQuitta Williams.
Arrington said he thought his message might have more power if it was delivered to a blacks-only audience.
"I didn't think about racism or reverse racism, I practiced law for 30 years and 75 percent of my partners were white," he explained.
The judge said the majority of people who appear before him accused of crimes such as murder, rape and robbery are black and he wanted to do something about it, one on one.
"I didn't want them to think I was talking down to them; trying to embarrass them or insult them; be derogatory towards them and I was just saying 'Please get yourself together,'" he said.
Arrington added that he may make a similar speech next week, but this time he'll allow everyone to hear it.

Perpetrators!!

Jeremiah Wright Being Manipulated By Clinton Con-Artist To Sabotage Obama Campaign?!

The Rev. Dr. Barbara Reynolds and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright at the National Press Club event Monday, which was organized by Reynolds.

Here we go! It's a set-up of monumenal proportions! Check this con-artist out that's dressed in yellow on the right! Then listen to this:

The Rev. Jeremiah Wright couldn't have done more damage to Barack Obama's campaign if he had tried. And you have to wonder if that's just what one friend of Wright wanted.
Shortly before he rose to deliver his rambling, angry, sarcastic remarks at the National Press Club Monday, Wright sat next to, and chatted with, Barbara Reynolds.
A former editorial board member at USA Today, she runs something called Reynolds News Services and teaches ministry at the Howard University School of Divinity. (She is an ordained minister).
It also turns out that Reynolds - introduced Monday as a member of the National Press Club "who organized" the event - is an enthusiastic Hillary Clinton supporter.
On a blog linked to her Web site- www.reynoldsnews.com- Reynolds said in a February post: "My vote for Hillary in the Maryland primary was my way of saying thank you" to Clinton and her husband for the successes of Bill Clinton's presidency.
The same post criticized Obama's "Audacity of Hope" theme: "Hope by definition is not based on facts," wrote Reynolds. It is an emotional expectation. Things hoped for may or may not come. But help based on experience trumps hope every time."
In another blog entry, Reynolds gives an ever-sharper critique of Obama: "It is a sad testimony that to protect his credentials as a unifier above the fray, the senator is fueling the media characterization that Rev. Dr. Wright is some retiring old uncle in the church basement."
I don't know if Reynolds' eagerness to help Wright stage a disastrous news conference with the national media was a way of trying to help Clinton - my queries to Reynolds by phone and e-mail weren't returned yesterday - but it's safe to say she didn't see any conflict between promoting Wright and supporting Clinton.
It's hard to exaggerate how bad the actual news conference was. Wright, steeped in an honorable, fiery tradition of Bible-based social criticism, cheapened his arguments and his movement by mugging for the cameras, rolling his eyes, heaping scorn on his critics and acting as if nobody in the room was learned enough to ask him a question.
Wright has, unquestionably, been caricatured and vilified unfairly. The feeding programs, prison outreach and other social services he has built over more than 30 years are commendable, and his reading of the Judeo-Christian tradition as an epic story of people trying to escape slavery is far more right than wrong - and not something to be caricatured or compressed into a 10-second sound bite.
But Wright should have known - and his friend and ally Reynolds, a media professional, surely knew - that bickering with the press can only harm Wright and, by extension, Obama.
I hope that wasn't their goal.

Music 360: Hannah (Miley's) Embarrassed - Cyrus Apologizes!

Ya'll asked for it. Questions about Hannah Montana (alias: Miley Cyrus) were asked during Music 360. No she is not a 5%, No she doesn't use backwards masking, but pictures of her being rather racy keep popping up. Now she cannot deny it! The girl's only 15!

Miley Cyrus and her parents must be feeling the heat from the Disney Channel.
While the 15-year-old star has remained mum on the numerous provocative pics of her floating around the Internets, she IS speaking out about that racy new Vanity Fair photo.
And she's not happy!

"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed," Cyrus said Sunday in a statement through her publicist. "I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."

This ain't nothin' compared to her other pics: (fdrinking, mock kissing other girls, laying on dudes)

The pics in question were taken by renowned photog Annie Leibovitz.
The shots of Miley include photos of the tween star wrapped in what appears to be a satin bedsheet, looking over her shoulder with her back exposed.
It's as if she's saying, "Come hither".

The Disney Channel, which makes hundreds of millions off Hannah Montana, was also critical of Vanity Fair.

"Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines," a network statement said.
Vanity Fair, for their part, defended its position.

"Miley's parents and/or handlers were on the set all day," the magazine says. "Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley."

Ohhh, my!

Miley just got clowned by Vanity Fair!

It gets worse for Cyrus!

In a caption released by Vanity Fair with the photo last week, Slutty Miley expressed her comfort with how the apparently topless picture turned out.
"I think it's really artsy," she told the magazine at the time. "It wasn't in a skanky way. Annie took, like, a beautiful shot, and I thought that was really cool. That's what she wanted me to do, and you can't say no to Annie."

Not only this, but this weekend she was asked what her favorite show was. She replies: "[Sex & The City] It’s my favorite show! I love it!” Umm, last I checked, I don't think Sex & The City was appropriate for a 35 year old, much less a 15 year old....My mic is off...

MARION JONES' TEAMMATES FIGHT TO KEEP MEDALS: 2000 gold ordered returned from relay partners after Jones' steroid admission

*Ladies who ran with Marion Jones at the 2000 Olympics are fighting to keep the gold and bronze medals that they have been ordered to return due to Jones' admission of steroid use.
Jones teamed with Jearl-Miles Clark, Monique Hennagan, LaTasha Colander-Richardson and Andrea Anderson to win gold in the 1,600-meter relay, and with Chryste Gaines, Torri Edwards, Nanceen Perry and Passion Richardson to win the bronze in the 400.
The International Olympic Committee ordered Jones to return both medals last year after she admitted to doping during the Sydney Games. Earlier this month, the International Olympic Committee disqualified the other seven athletes, while conceding none of the athletes broke any rules. The runners had refused to give up their medals, saying it would be wrong to punish them for Jones' violations.
A news release sent Wednesday from the athletes' attorney, Mark Levinstein, said the athletes have until May 1 to appeal the IOC decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Hennagan said the athletes want to fight the IOC decision, but "the cost of fighting the IOC with all of its resources and paying for legal proceedings before the court in Switzerland is more than our combined resources," she said.
With Levinstein's help, the athletes established The Innocent Olympic Athletes' Legal Defense Fund. The U.S. Olympic Committee offered to pay for the athletes' defense should they choose one of three attorney's the federation has agreed to provide for them, spokesman Darryl Seibel said.

What do you think? Do you think it is fair for the other ladies to have to give up their medals?

Today's Foolywang: WOMAN STABBED FOR TALKING OVER TYRA: Victim nearly killed for yakking away while folks were trying to watch "Top Model."?!

I can't believe this!

*A 42-year-old Seattle woman was nearly stabbed to death Wednesday because she wouldn't stop talking during "America's Next Top Model."
According to SeattlePI.com, the victim and her friends were in a Columbia City apartment drinking beer and watching the Tyra Banks reality show when another woman in the group told her to stop talking.
When she refused, police say the woman then opened the apartment door and ordered the talker to leave. Police said things got heated and became physical, with one woman having a clump of her hair snatched out.
The attacker then pulled a paring knife from a nearby apple and began stabbing the 42-year-old, according to a police report. Witnesses pulled the knife away and the perpetrator ran off.
Medics and police were called about 9:30 p.m. to the apartment in the 5000 block of 37th Avenue South. A police officer found the victim lying on a neighbor's couch with a blood-soaked towel covering a chest wound roughly 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch wide, the report said. The woman had gone upstairs and knocked on the neighbor's door for help, saying she had been stabbed and her money was taken.
Medics who rushed her to Harborview Medical Center had to call for donor blood because her stab wounds were so severe, said police spokesman Jeff Kappel.
Police found the clump of hair in a garbage can, but did not find a weapon. As of press time, the suspect was still at large.

This season is whack anyway, so I don't see the motive!

WHITE JENA TEEN PLEADS GUILTY

Jeremiah Munsen, 18, of Grant Parish, LA, admitted to placing two large nooses on his truck Sep. 20th and driving past a group of marchers gathered at a bus depot in Alexandria, about 35 miles south of Jena, where the march took place in protest of the treatment of the six young, black men now known as the “Jena 6“.
“The defendant used a noose to threaten peaceful civil rights marchers who were in Louisiana to rally against racial intolerance,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Grace Chung Becker.
Munsen, who faces up to a year in prison, will be sentenced at an August 15 hearing.

FORUM FOR AT RISK YOUTHS!

Judge Marvin Arrington, who ordered white lawyers out of his courtroom last month, and Bill Cosby spoke at a forum for at-risk youths from the Atlanta area last week. Chris Tucker also attended the event and urged audience members to find something they’re passionate about, otherwise it’s very easy to get into trouble, he said.
Cosby, who has criticized the black community in the past, noted the apathy among black Americans about violence, drugs, profanity and teenage sex has sunk to a level of asking someone to “pass the salt”.
“Our children are trying to tell us something,” Cosby said to the invitation-only crowd of about 600, which included teenagers identified as “at-risk” by juvenile authorities.
Judge Arrington said Cosby contacted him two weeks ago and said, “‘I want to come to Atlanta and help you with your fight to try to turn these young people around.’” He added, “These young people are worth saving.”

Medicine: African Americans May Be 5 times More Likely To Lose Limb

April 27, 2008

BY MONIFA THOMAS Health Reporter/mjthomas@suntimes.com
Sarah Echols isn't sure what's worse: the way people stare at her, or how clumsy and off-balance she feels.
Echols' left leg was amputated 1½years ago because of poor circulation in the arteries supplying blood to her legs. Now, the 62-year-old Calumet City woman gets around on crutches or in a wheelchair because her prosthetic limb is too painful to stand on.

"It's very hard to get used to," Echols said. "You have to learn how to do everything over again."
Echols is one of thousands of African Americans in the Chicago area who have had all or part of a limb amputated because of complications from either diabetes or a condition called peripheral arterial disease.

Though amputation is considered a last-resort treatment, blacks are far more likely than whites to have at least one of these procedures.
And a new study from Northwestern's Feinberg School of Medicine shows that the racial gap hasn't shrunk in the last two decades, despite an overall decrease in the number of amputations performed in northern Illinois.

"It's very troubling," said Dr. William Pearce, an author of the study published Saturday in the Journal of Vascular Surgery. "Medical advances make leaps and bounds, but it doesn't always get translated to everybody."

Looking at hospital discharge data from the state health department, Pearce and his research partner, Joseph Feinglass, found that residents of predominantly black ZIP codes in the Chicago area are five times more likely than those in white areas to have a foot or leg amputated. An earlier study found that African Americans are less likely to be treated with potentially limb-saving surgeries before amputation.

The reasons for this disparity are complex, said Feinglass, a health policy researcher at Northwestern.

For one, blacks suffer disproportionately from diabetes and other conditions that lead to peripheral arterial disease, such as hypertension. African Americans are also more likely than whites and Hispanics to smoke, which can lead to poor circulation.
Echols, for example, is an ex-smoker and has a family history of atherosclerosis, or fatty buildup in the arteries.

Fallout From Acquittlal in NY Shooting of "Groom"!

Ice Cube, Chamillionaire, and Al Sharpton are among the many millions that are totally disgusted with the lack of justice we saw Friday when the judge acquitted all 3 officers in the shooting death of Sean Bell in which they fired 50 shots at an unarmed man hitting him 16 times. This is definitely a disgusting travesty of what is supposed to be justice in America. It reminds black people of the Jim Crow era in which African Americans never received a fair shot in a court room. It also sends a loud message to youth that already do not trust the law, that the police will not be held accountable when they use excessive force, break the law, and murder innocent civilians. It tells black people that society values the lives of corrupt police officers more than regular people.
Via MTV:
Al Sharpton:
“I think that we need a cross-section of groups to come together,” Sharpton said from his National Action Network headquarters in Harlem. “We need to sit down immediately and plan a strategy and make it international, with the goals being a structural change in policing. I believe we can get to the federal government. Then we’re going to wait again for another trial. There’s something wrong with the law, and we must change that.”
Ice Cube:
“This is just another example that the justice system in America views a black life as worthless,”
Chamillionaire:
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that shooting an innocent, unarmed man 50-plus times is an excessive use of force. I’m sure a lot of people are as disappointed with this verdict as I am. It scares me to know what type of power is given to people who are supposed to be protecting us from harm. It seems like they are all just protecting themselves. The verdict sends a terrible message to people across the nation who already don’t have faith in the law or our justice system. It will be hard for people to see this as anything other than a case of police protection. Our prayers go out to the family and friends of Sean Bell.”
Bun B:
“The verdict is almost as tragic as the incident. We’ve already lost [a] life, and now we’ve got a loss of justice and loss of reciprocation for what’s happened. And it cuts you on so many levels.”
Bun insisted that the law has to change. “Some kind of legislation that holds police more accountable [is needed],” he said. ” … I would love to see the Sean Bell bill passed, you know what I’m saying? Something in his name. Let’s not mar his memory with violence. … I feel like people should be upset. They should be mad, but that’s what they expect for us to do with our anger. That’s what they expect us to do with our energy, is to put it back out and to take their negative energy and turn it into something even more negative. We gotta take that sh– and do it into something positive for this dude, because … Sean Bell could’ve been anybody, literally. Sean Bell wasn’t a celebrity. He wasn’t an athlete. … He was just a man trying to take care of his family, trying to do his thing, just do him. This could be anybody. Any man.”

BREAKING NEWS!!! NYC POLICE FOUND NOT GUILTY IN SEAN BELL TRIAL!!!

NEW YORK - Three detectives were acquitted of all charges Friday in the 50-shot killing of an unarmed groom-to-be on his wedding day, a case that put the NYPD at the center of another dispute involving allegations of excessive firepower.

Justice Arthur Cooperman delivered the verdict in a Queens courtroom packed with spectators, including victim Sean Bell's fiancee and parents, and at least 200 people gathered outside the building.

The verdict provoked an outpouring of emotions: Bell's fiancee immediately walked out of the room. His mother cried.

Outside the courthouse, which was surrounded by scores of police officers, many in the crowd began weeping as news of the verdict said. Others were enraged, swearing and screaming "Murderers! Murderers!" or "KKK!"

Bell, a 23-year-old black man, was killed in a hail of gunfire outside a seedy strip club in Queens on Nov. 25, 2006 — his wedding day — as he was leaving his bachelor party with two friends.

Black History Spotlight: Jane Bolin

Jane Bolin (1908-2007) enjoyed a number of firsts during her lifetime. She was the first black woman to graduate from Yale Law School, the first to join the New York City Bar Association, the first to join the city’s law department and the first black woman to serve as a judge in the United States.
Born on April 11, 1908, in Poughkeepsie, NY, Bolin was the youngest of four siblings. Her father, Gaius Charles Bolin, was the first black to graduate from Williams College and became a lawyer. Her mother, Matilda, a white Englishwoman, died when Bolin was eight. Bolin graduated from high school in Poughkeepsie and was one of two black students in her class at Wellesley College.

Scientist: It May Be Time TO GIVE UP On Finding An AIDS Vaccine

Most scientists involved in Aids research believe that a vaccine against HIV is further away than ever and some have admitted that effective immunisation against the virus may never be possible, according to an unprecedented poll conducted by The Independent.
A mood of deep pessimism has spread among the international community of Aids scientists after the failure of a trial of a promising vaccine at the end of last year. It just was the latest in a series of setbacks in the 25-year struggle to develop an HIV vaccine.
The Independent's survey of more than 35 leading Aids scientists in Britain and the United States found that just two were now more optimistic about the prospects for an HIV vaccine than they were a year ago; only four said they were more optimistic now than they were five years ago.
Nearly two thirds believed that an HIV vaccine will not be developed within the next 10 years and some of them said that it may take at least 20 more years of research before a vaccine can be used to protect people either from infection or the onset of Aids.

No They Didn't:JUANITA BYNUM TO GO TO DIVORCE COURT .... THE TV SHOW!!!

As if it's not enough that two prominent Christian figures have allowed themselves to be deceived to the highest level, now they are still taking it another low....

ATLANTA (AP) — Televangelist Juanita Bynum says in a two-part episode of "Divorce Court" that she's through with her marriage to minister Thomas W. Weeks III, who is on probation for assaulting her.

In episodes scheduled to air Thursday and Friday, Bynum also says she had thoughts of suicide and weighs in on a case involving domestic violence. When asked what advice she had for women in situations similar to hers, she said, "I have to make a decision ... to take the love that I had for him with me."

In a transcript of the show obtained by The Associated Press, Bynum said she would always love Weeks, but made a decision to "love me more."

Weeks pleaded guilty in March to assaulting Bynum on Aug. 21 in a hotel parking lot outside of Atlanta; police said Bynum told investigators he choked her, pushed her down and kicked and stomped her.

Weeks was sentenced to three years' probation and ordered to perform community service and undergo counseling.

Bynum, a prominent televangelist whose message of women's empowerment resonated with many followers, said she saw signs of trouble in her marriage well before the assault.

"I was just trying to make it work because I don't like losing relationships," Bynum told Judge Lynn Toler, who hears cases on the syndicated show distributed by Twentieth Television. "All of this just kept getting swept under the rug ... So you begin to adapt to a very wrong and very unhealthy marriage."

The couple wed in a million-dollar, televised ceremony in 2002 and together wrote "Teach Me How to Love You: The Beginnings." Bynum filed for divorce a month after the attack.

When asked on "Divorce Court" whether she and Weeks were planning a reconciliation, Bynum said she is "done."

"I can't speak for him, but I no longer want the marriage," she said.

Weeks' divorce attorney, Randy Kessler, said on Tuesday that the divorce is moving forward. A mediation date is scheduled for May 13.

"Reconciliation is not in the works and not even being discussed now," Kessler said, adding that the show appearance could affect the mediation.

Bynum also was asked about rumors that she tried to commit suicide.

"Suicide crossed my mind ... You know, I felt hopeless," Bynum said. "I didn't because the name Bynum represents a legacy of people that have gone before me and had I done that I would have given too much power to an individual to not just wipe me out but to wipe out the integrity of the legacy I was born in."

Bynum is a former hairdresser and flight attendant who became a Pentecostal evangelist, author and gospel singer. Weeks is the founder of Global Destiny churches.

No They Didn't! Arizona Proposal Would Prohibit Race-Based Student Groups?!

OKAY, THAT'S NOT GOING TO FLY!!

An Arizona legislative committee has passed an amendment to a routine homeland-security bill that would prohibit students at the state’s public universities and community colleges from organizing groups based on race. The amendment was approved by the Arizona House Appropriations Committee on Wednesday. It still awaits a vote by the state’s full House and Senate.

The amendment, introduced by State Rep. Russell K. Pearce, a Republican, would also allow state officials to withhold funds from public schools sponsoring activities that “denigrate American values and the teachings of Western civilization.” The proposal was added to Senate Bill 1108, a measure that has nothing to do with education but was intended to allow designees of mayors and police chiefs to serve on homeland-security advisory councils.

“This bill basically says, ‘You’re here. Adopt American values,’” State Rep. John Kavanagh, a Republican, told The Arizona Republic. “‘If you want a different culture, then fine, go back to that culture,’” he said. —JJ Hermes

Music 360: Lil Wayne On That Syrup

We talked about Lil Wayne during Music 360. It's sad, but this guy planning his own demise! In numerous interviews, Lil Wayne shrugs off people who are worried about his addiction to “syrup” telling them to “mind their d--- business”. It’s rare that you will see Wayne in concert or out and about without a styrofoam cup full of it(which consists of a mixture of cough syrup with codeine and promethazine). “Sippin syrup” has become a huge epidemic in southern hip hop culture and has claimed the lives of artists such as Pimp C, Big Moe and DJ Screw. In this video he is STRAIGHT SIPPIN'! After watching this video clip I am convinced that Wayne should get help…soon. (It hurts to see a young person so lost..) Check it out ..

New Study Shows Trends in Tithing and Donating

(Ventura, CA) While theologians debate whether or not the practice of tithing - donating ten percent (or more) of one's income to churches and charitable groups - is a biblical responsibility of Christians, Americans have pretty much made up their minds on the subject. Their views are discernible through their behavior. The giving patterns of Americans are described in new research released by The Barna Group, based on an annual tracking survey conducted by the firm regarding religious behaviors and beliefs. The results of the new research can be compared with outcomes from prior years to follow the trend line.

Tithing in 2007

Whether they believe in the principle of tithing or not, few Americans give away that much money. In 2007, the research revealed that just 5% of adults tithed.

Not surprisingly, some population groups were more likely than others to have given away at least ten percent of their income. Among the most generous segments were evangelicals (24% of whom tithed); conservatives (12%); people who had prayed, read the Bible and attended a church service during the past week (12%); charismatic or Pentecostal Christians (11%); and registered Republicans (10%).

Several groups also stood out as highly unlikely to tithe: people under the age of 25, atheists and agnostics, single adults who have never been married, liberals, and downscale adults. One percent or less of the people in each of those segments tithed in 2007.

Among all born again adults, 9% contributed one-tenth or more of their income. The study also showed that Protestants were four times as likely to tithe as were Catholics (8% versus 2%, respectively).

50 Cent Gets Clowned By Journalist On Alicia Keys Comments

I hope you all can see how IGNORANT Curtis 50 Cent Jackson Is! Read This!

*Let’s start with the recent quotes and then get straight to the clownin’ of an idiot.
"'Gangsta rap' was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. 'Gangsta rap' didn't exist."
- Alicia Keys (in an interview with Blender Magazine

In response, Curtis "50 Cent" offered the following ignorance.
"I don't like Alicia Keys no more though … the same reason why I said that I don't like Oprah Winfrey. I'm prejudice. I don't like people who don't like me. If you don't like the content that I write because of my experiences; I am being who I am when I am writing it. I fall into that 'label' as far as you considering artists creating 'Gangsta music,' we fall into that.
"If she don't like that, (then) I don't like that classical music s--- she be doing. At some point she's playing some s--- that don't relate to me. … We listen to it and try to figure out why people actually enjoy it. I am trying to enjoy it. That statement changes my perception of Alicia Keys totally. But the magazine is standing behind it, which means they probably have a tape of her in conversation saying it. It's just not really a bright comment anyway."

- 50 Cent (Village Idiot)

No, 50 Cent did NOT just say, “it's just not really a bright comment anyway," did he?!
“She be doing?” Alicia Keys…”she be doing” classical s___?!
First things first. When you fail to construct even one grammatically correct sentence over the course of two paragraphs (in an interview no less) you forfeit the right and privilege to accuse ANYONE of being less than “bright” in his/her commentary. At least be SOMEWHAT articulate in your birth language before grading the "brightness" of someone else's commentary.
Just a suggestion...

"I'm prejudice. I don't like people who don't like me.”

- 50 Cent (Village Idiot)
No, 50 Cent did NOT just say, “it's just not really a bright comment anyway," did he?!
“She be doing?” Alicia Keys…”she be doing” classical s___?!

Sports: SERENA WINS, BLAKE LOSES IN FAMILY CIRCLE FINALS:Williams gets first clay court win in six years;Blake denied first clay victory of his career

*Serena Williams scored her first clay court victory since 2002 and stretched her win streak to 15 matches by winning the $1.3 million WTA Family Circle Cup final Sunday in Charleston, S.C.
On the men's side, James Blake was unable to close the deal, losing a chance to win his first ever clay court tournament in a final match with Spain's Marcel Granollers-Pujol.
The fifth-seeded Williams sister served nine aces en route to defeating Russia's Vera Zvonareva 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 and earn her third consecutive tournament crown, a victory that will lift her from ninth to sixth in the WTA rankings.
"I'm feeling really good," Williams said. "I'm not even reaching my peak yet. I feel like I can do so much better."
Meanwhile, top seed Blake rallied after dropping the first set but was denied his first clay court title by Granollers-Pujol, the 84th-ranked player in the world who was playing in his first ATP final. The 6-4, 1-6, 7-5 loss dropped eighth-ranked Blake to 35-35 lifetime on clay. He fell short of his bid for an 11th ATP title and fell to 10-12 in ATP finals.

Politics: Clinton Needs Record Margins, Turnout to Catch Obama!

April 21 (Bloomberg) -- To overtake Barack Obama in the nationwide popular vote, Hillary Clinton needs a bigger win in tomorrow's Pennsylvania primary than she has had in any major contest so far. And that's just for starters.
After more than 40 Democratic primaries and caucuses, Obama, the Illinois senator, leads Clinton by more than 800,000 votes. Even if the New York senator wins by more than 20 percentage points tomorrow -- a landslide few experts expect -- she would still have a hard time catching him.
Clinton needs ``blowout numbers,'' says Peter Fenn, a Democratic consultant who isn't affiliated with either campaign. ``The wheels would have to come off the Obama bus, and the engine would have to blow.''
A popular-vote victory is vital to Clinton's chances because she is likely to end the primaries still trailing Obama, 46, in the race for delegates to the Democratic National Convention.
According to an unofficial tally by the Associated Press, Obama currently leads by a margin of 1,645 to 1,504 among pledged delegates and those superdelegates -- elected and party officials who get an automatic vote on the nomination -- who have indicated a preference. It will take 2,025 delegates to win the nomination.

Music 360: Nas Releases Track, "Be A NIGGER Too"

Nas, with his 5% Nation of god's and earth's foolishness, is back with this nonsense. To the melody of Dr. Pepper's old jingle, "Wouldn't You Like To Be A Pepper Too", he infuses his niggardly viewpoint. This was one point shy of making today's Foolywang moment. Nas was right in his last album though..Hip-Hop "IS DEAD"!

PARALYZED TRACK STAR WALKS AGAIN!

To you heathen acting PARTY ANIMALS out there, who know better, this one's for you. This dude was riding around drinking with his triflin' frens..(yeah, I spelled it right, because out there in the world, that's all they are F-R-E-Ns)..anyway, read the rest:

Last winter, 20-year-old Adrian Gordon, wasn’t wearing a seatbelt when a friend’s speeding car blew a tire on the Long Island Expressway. Gordon was ejected, fractured his spine and was told he’d never walk again.

For weeks, Gordon was only able to move his eyelids, until one night a sensation in his foot awoke him.

“I looked at my toes and saw them moving because I knew when I went to sleep they weren’t moving,” Gordon said. “I made sure I stayed up all night, because I’m like…look, if they’re moving now, I’m going to keep moving them all night, so it won’t go away!!”


Gordon, a former high school sprinter, was a student at Borough of Manhattan Community College where he studied accounting when the accident occurred. He now plans to return to school but will major in sports medicine, in hopes of helping people with injuries similar to his.

“Without a doubt, I know it’s a miracle,” Gordon said last week at a news conference held in the hospital’s rehabilitation unit and attended by the physicians and therapists who guided his recovery. [ Read the article in its entirety. ]

Bangin' at Yeshua's Tomb?? Christians clash at Jesus' tomb on Orthodox Palm Sunday!

Not sure if this is actually the TRUE sight of Yeshua's tomb, so in this case I will let them go ahead and call him Jesus. This foolishness would not be happening at the TRUE site of Yeshua, Trust!

JERUSALEM - Dozens of Greek and Armenian priests and worshippers exchanged blows at one of Christianity's holiest shrines on Orthodox Palm Sunday, and used palm fronds to pummel police who tried to break up the brawl.

The fight came amid growing rivalry over religious rights at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, built over the site in Jerusalem where tradition says Jesus was buried and resurrected.

It erupted when Armenian clergy kicked out a Greek priest from their midst, pushed him to the ground and kicked him, according to witnesses.

When police intervened, some worshippers hit them with the palm fronds they were holding for the religious holiday. The Eastern Orthodox churches, including the Armenians and Greek Orthodox, follow a different calendar from Western Christians and celebrate Easter next Sunday.

Two Armenian worshippers who attacked the Greek Orthodox clergy were briefly detained by Israeli police. Scores of Armenian supporters then protested outside the police station during the questioning of the two, beating drums and chanting.

The Holy Sepulcher is shared by several Christian denominations according to a centuries-old arrangement known as the "status quo."

Each denomination jealously guards its share of the basilica, and fights over rights at the church have intensified in recent years, particularly between the Armenians and Greeks.

Father Pakrad, an Armenian priest, said the presence of the Greek priest during the Armenian observances violated the status quo. "Our priests entered the tomb. They kicked the Greek monk out of the Edicule," he said, referring to the tomb area.

Pakrad accused the Greek Orthodox Christians of trying to step on the Armenians' rights. "We are the weak ones, persecuted by them for many centuries."

The Greek Orthodox Patriarch in the Holy Land, Theofilos III, told The Associated Press that the Armenians are pushing to change the rules, challenging what he said was the dominance of the Greek church in the Holy Land.

"This behavior is criminal and unacceptable by all means," he said. "They wanted to trespass on the status quo concerning the order that regulates the services between the various communities."

The Church of the Nativity in nearby Bethlehem — where Jesus is said to have been born — also falls under the status quo arrangement. Last year, pre-Christmas cleaning in that church turned ugly when robed Greek Orthodox and Armenian priests went at each other with brooms and stones.
