President Obama To Tell Public Federal Secrets

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

In a move that can be seen as a major step in delivering the transparency of government promised by then candidate  Obama, now President Obama has ordered several government agencies to re-evaluate how many of our national secrets are protected.

For his first trick, America's first Black President is expected to call for the declassification of over 400 million Cold War-ear files, making them available to the public.

Also on the “Change” menu is a new requirement that federal agencies must review how and why some documents  are marked as classified while making it illegal to deny the release of historical records.  He has also mandated that all records must be eventually released.

The National Declassification Center at the National Archives will be created to oversee this change in policy and  is expected to have all Cold Ware-era documents released to the public by December 31st of 2013.

Tiger Woods Enters Rehab For Sex Addiction

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

Relationship analysts and public relations experts predicted that Tiger Woods would have to seek help once he totally hit rock bottom with all signs seeming to point that such a time is finally near.

The golf prodigy and first billionaire athlete has entered himself into a private rehabilitation center in the Arizona desert, presumably to seek help for his insatiable sexual appetite.

Purportedly made with amiable intentions, there has been heavy speculation in the media community as to why Tiger has submitted himself to one of two star treatment centers, with one hypothesis placing Woods in the lap of druggy luxury against his will.

Like Eric Benet and countless other philandering stars before him, a stint in rehab could do wonders for what is left of Tiger's carefully crafted image, making him able to return to the pedestal on which he has rested comfortably since childhood.

Unfortunately for companies such as Gillette, AT&T, and Nike, the “new” Tiger could not come soon enough; those companies posted quarterly losses linked to the “Woodsgate 2009” at the sum of nearly $12 billion thus far.

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

Christine Ann Camer, a 58-year-old assistant principal at a middle school in California, is accused of having a sexual relationship with one of her students.

The assistant principal, who has been on leave since January when officials first became suspicious, reportedly met the young boy in 2008 and is believed to have maintained a relationship with the child since then.

The boy's parents are believed to have been aware of the relationship.

Police were able to move in for an arrest after the boy divulged details of their relations to another adult who tipped police.
Camer was booked into a California jail on suspicion of  engaging in lewd acts with a minor and oral copulation with a person under age 16.

It cannot be that hard to find a man your own age in California, it just can't be!

SMH....what was she thinking?!

Kid Cudi Puts Music Industry on Blast [Video Included]

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

Kid Cudi has never been a rapper that finds it necessary to bring down another rapper in order to promote himself.  He is, however, a man that apparently believes in respect and will immediately shut down those that choose to not show him such courtesy.

During a show at the House Of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, the Man on the Moon spoke on his recent activity involving the assault on a fan that resulted in him being ejected from Lady Gaga's tour.

The media has found many different angles and spins to place on the incident so Cudi has found no other alternative but to provide a little clarity and defend himself.

"They trying to make me look like the poster boy for violence and (more...)

T-Pain Gets His A** Whooped

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

What has the world come to?

With all of the problems that have already plagued 2009, it's just sad that things are ceasing fire with the year almost done.

It seems like someone might have taken Jay-Z's “D.O.A. (Death Of Autotune)” a step further by going straight to the source, a.k.a. T-Pain.

Without warning, the rapper/singer/producer was brutally attacked by none other than Ne Yo's mother as she went WWE and applied a full nelson on the entertainer stopping him dead in his tracks.

Let's all pray for Pain, he never had a chance.
