Melyssa Ford: “I Was Attacked”

IMG_3513.JPG

These Reality Shows are too violent!!!! I guess these starts will risk it all for ratings and a check!!!

Blood, Sweat and Heels” star Geneva Thomas had been arrested and charged with felony assault. In case you missed it, during a recent taping of the Bravo series, Geneva got into a fight with Melyssa and allegedly hurled a Vodka bottle at her head. Following the incident, Geneva was taken to a police station and Melyssa was rushed to the hospital where she was treated for a head injury.
TMZ recently caught up with Melyssa, who was being wheeled into Lenox Hospital on Thursday. The cameraman caught up with her as she was being helped out of a town car and into a wheelchair of sorts. Apparently, a head injury wasn’t all that she sustained during the brawl, as one of her feet were wrapped in an ace bandage.

“We are overjoyed to announce that, as of yesterday evening, officials at Emory University Hospital and the Centers for Disease Control (and Prevention) are no longer able to detect virus in her body,” the family said in a statement hours after Vinson spoke with her mother, Debra Berry.

She said her daughter, a nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian, has been cleared for transfer from isolation at Emory. She remains under treatment at the hospital’s unit for serious communicable diseases.

“Amber and our family are ecstatic to receive this latest report on her condition,” Berry said.

While acknowledging that Vinson would require further treatment, the statement did not indicate when she might be released.

Longhorns Will Pay Each Player $10,000

IMG_3504.JPG

WASHINGTON — The University of Texas will spend nearly $6 million a year to comply with a string of recent legal rulings requiring colleges to be more generous to their scholarship athletes.
That won’t break the bank, Athletic Director Steve Patterson said Tuesday at a forum on the fast-changing business of college sports. But even rich programs like UT’s will be forced to make tough choices in the future if momentum in the courts continues to push colleges to treat their players like employees or semi-pros, he said.
Chris Plonsky, director for women’s sports at Texas, said the school already employs 350 workers to coach and care for the students who play in Austin. The money for all of those jobs, she said, comes from just two sports, football and men’s basketball.
“If we begin to [further] remunerate the participants, that’s going to break that model,” Plonsky said.
Patterson said UT won’t have problems paying the extra $6 million to its players. That money will break down to about $10,000 for each player. The money will cover college expenses that aren’t covered by a traditional full scholarship and give each player $5,000 in compensation for the university’s use of his image.

Perform Same Sex Weddings Or Face Prosecution

IMG_3489.JPG

Two Christian ministers who own an Idaho wedding chapel were told they had to either perform same-sex weddings or face jail time and up to $1,000 in daily fines, according to a lawsuit filed Friday in federal court.

Alliance Defending Freedom is representing Donald and Evelyn Knapp, two ordained ministers who own the Hitching Post Wedding Chapel in Coeur d’Alene.

“Right now they are at risk of being prosecuted,” attorney Jeremy Tedesco told me. “The threat of enforcement is more than just credible.”

The wedding chapel is registered as a “religious corporation” limited to performing “one-man-one-woman marriages as defined by the Holy Bible.”

However, the chapel is also a for-profit business and city officials said that means the owners must comply with the local nondiscrimination ordinance.

That ordinance, passed in 2013, prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and it applies to housing, employment and public accommodation.

City Attorney Warren Wilson told The Spokesman-Review in May that the Hitching Post Wedding Chapel likely would be required to follow the ordinance.

Lesbian Mayor Subpoenas Pastors For Sermons About Homosëxuality

IMG_3478.JPG

According to Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council, when he’d written that the time would come when the government would try to silence the pastors in America in his book “God Less America”

Apparently that day has arrived in Houston, Texas through the power of the first openly lesbian mayor of the city, Annise Parker.

It’s reported that the city of Houston has demanded that several pastors turn over their sermons on anything about homosëxuality, gender identity, or the mayor of the city, in apparent revenge for opposition against the city’s new non-discrimination ordinance. The mayor’s office has backed up these demands by issuing subpoenas, so that if they refuse, legal action may be taken against them.

According to Christina Holcomb, attorney for the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), the city council is attempting to quiet any opposition of actions they take. She added that the ADF has filed a motion in Harris County court to stop these subpoenas, which are “overbroad, unduly burdensome, harassing and vexatious.”

$20,000 Designer Bag Smells Like WEED

IMG_3471.JPG

People who have purchased $20,000 Hermès Birkin bags tell “Page Six” they are dissatisfied, because they claim the bags reek of marijuana. According to the column, the odor is caused by a shipment of “badly tanned” leather that reacts to heat. A source told “Page Six”: “Owners are returning the Hermès bags back to boutiques across the US, including the Madison Avenue store, saying they smell of skunk. The bags are being sent back to Paris as nobody knows quite how to deal with this embarrassing situation.

Texas Ebola Patient Dies

IMG_3351.JPG

DALLAS — The first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the United States died early Wednesday, officials with Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital announced.
“It is with profound sadness and heartfelt disappointment that we must inform you of the death of Thomas Eric Duncan this morning at 7:51 am.,” the hospital said in a written statement. “Mr. Duncan succumbed to an insidious disease, Ebola.”

The Liberian citizen, who recently traveled from West Africa to Dallas to reunite with a longlost son and girlfriend, had been in isolation at Texas Health Presbyterian since Sept. 28.

It wasn’t immediately known what would happen to his body, which could remain contagious for several days. Guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention call for the remains to be immediately shrouded in plastic and double-bagged in leak-proof bags at the hospital, then promptly cremated or buried in an airtight casket.

Duncan’s death comes four days after his condition was downgraded from serious to critical. Over the weekend, he had begun receiving brincidofovir, an experimental antiviral drug which recently gained emergency approval from the FDA.

“He fought courageously in this battle,” the hospital said. “Our professionals, the doctors and nurses in the unit, as well as the entire Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas community, are also grieving his passing. We have offered the family our support and condolences at this difficult time.”

It is said to be effective immediately so consequently gone are the days of Kaepernick and Cam Newton warming up while sporting a pair of Beats on the field.

The Unforgivable Sin!

IMG_3277.JPG

How important is the Holy Spirit? What is the One Unforgivable sin? Can you explain the meaning of Blasphemy?

Mark 3:22-30 states,

“And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, ‘He has Beelzebub,’ and, ‘By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons.’ …‘Assuredly, I [Jesus] say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation;’ because they said, ‘He has an unclean spirit’” (NKJV, emphasis added / Note: The Pharisees made the same charge in Mat 9:34.).

In Matthew 12:31-32, Jesus says to the Pharisees,

“Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come” (NKJV, emphasis added).

Box Office: Denzel Washington’s ‘The Equalizer’ Scores $35 Million Debut

IMG_3272.JPG

Denzel Washington’s The Equalizer proved the actor’s continuing popularity at the North American box office, debuting to $35 million from 3,236 theaters and marking one of the best openings of his career.

The $55 million action thriller, reuniting Washington with Training Day director Antoine Fuqua, is based on the 1980s TV series created by Michael Sloan and Richard Lindheim. Audiences gave the film an A- CinemaScore, in line with strong reviews. It played more evenly than expected gender-wise, with males making up 52 percent of the audience, and males, 48 percent.

Washington’s top opening of all time is American Gangster ($43.6 million) in 2007, followed by Safe House ($40.2 million) in 2012. Fugua’s Training Day debuted to $22.6 million in 2001.

T.D. Jakes Sues Young Jeezy and Kendrick Lamar over ‘HOLY GHOST’

IMG_3250-0.JPG

Jeezy collaborated with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar for his hit single’s remix, “Holy Ghost.” In the track’s intro, listeners hear an annotated version of Bishop T.D. Jakes’ popular sermon “Don’t Let The Chatter Stop You.”
Although the track is a win with fans, Bishop Jakes’ legal team will be taking action for his sermon being featured in the rap song without authorization.
In the snippet, Jakes preaches:
To tell myself, I’m still on fire.
I’m under attack, but I’m still on fire
I got some chatter, but I’m still on fire
I got some threat, but I’m still on fire
I got some liabilities, but I’m still on fire
If it’s not amazing that I’m on fire
I’ve been to hell and back, but I’m still on fire
Jakes sermon aligns with Jeezy and Lamar’s verses that reminisce on the trials of a life of fame. Jeezy nostalgically tells listeners about his pre-rapper occupation as a drug dealer in order to develop a source of income. He then transitions into how his life — and his friends — changed after he became famous. Perpendicular to that, Lamar drops bars on how he enjoys his new life but he’s consistently questioning if he is a true role model by enjoying the materialism and sexual experiences that come with stardom. Both artists are conflicted with their lifestyles since the public and those close to them judge their characters.
The song title, Holy Ghost is based on the nickname Jeezy has for his Rolls Royce; he drives Ghost around while he is reflecting about life.

Young Thug on Why he Calls Men “Bae” & “Lover”

IMG_3212.JPG

Thugger was asked point blank what he means when he calls other men like Birdman or Rich Homie Quan names like “hubby,” “bae,” “lover,” etc. His response? It’s just a part of their lingo.

“It’s the language. It’s nothing stupid and fruity going on. It’s the way we talk, it’s the way we live. Those are my baes, those are my lovers, my hubbies, whatever you want to call them.”

When asked if calling men these affectionate names on social media is a strategic business move to attract attention & publicity, Thug says he can’t say yes or no to that.

Nick Cannon Sports $2 Million Shoes

IMG_3168-0.JPG

According to reports, actor-mogul Nick Cannon has the Web in an uproar over a very expensive fashion choice. He sported $2 million, diamond-encrusted shoes designed by Tom Ford for the finale of “America’s Got Talent.”

The loafer has 14,000 diamonds and was created by California jeweler Jason Arasheben, founder and owner of Jason of Beverly Hills.

“Not very often do I get a request for the most expensive shoes in the world,” Arasheben toldWWD. “When Nick approached me last year, he said he wanted to make history and be so over-the-top. He wanted to set a new standard in diamonds. ‘How can we make the most expensive pair of shoes in the world and make this finale special?’ he asked me.”

Some critics thought the fashion statement to be too extravagant:

Does anyone else agree that it’s insane that @NickCannon‘s shoes are worth twice as much as the prize the finalists can win on @nbcagt

No Good Deed Tops Weekend Box Office with $25 Million

IMG_3140.JPG
No Good Deed, starring Idris Elba and Taraji P. Henson, grossed an estimated $24.5 million domestically, I can only assume because people thought it was a sequel to Tyler Perry’s Good Deeds. Screen Gems chose not to screen the film for critics (supposedly in order to protect its shocking plot twist – yeah right) and who knows whether that helped its box office at all, but the people who made that decision will surely be pretending it did. (You can also insert your own conspiracy theories about the Ray Rice news hitting just as a movie about a guy stalking a woman was set to screen). It received a 12% recommended rating from the critics who did see it and a B+ Cinemascore. As for the “shocking twist,” one critic described it as “about as fiendishly clever as an episode of General Hospital.”

Either way, the film only cost $13 million to producing, another win in a big year for producer Will Packer, who has now made healthy profits on the Think Like A Man movies, Obsessed, and Ride Along. Proving that there’s still money to be made playing to black audiences underserved by mainstream movies.

NFL admits error on 51-yard TD run by Seahawks’ Percy Harvin

IMG_3122.JPG

“All scoring plays are reviewed by the instant replay official, in conjunction with the NFL officiating staff in New York, and are not subject to a coach’s challenge,” NFL spokesman Michael Signora said in a statement. “Following the first quarter touchdown run by Percy Harvin, the game should have been stopped for a replay review, either by the replay official or by the officiating staff in New York.
“The touchdown was incorrectly confirmed, and as a result, the game was not stopped. Had the game been stopped for a replay review, the touchdown would have been reversed because Harvin stepped out of bounds at the San Diego 21-yard line.”

Adrian Peterson indicted on child abuse charges in Texas

IMG_3100.JPG

Minnesota Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson was indicted Friday on charges that he struck his young son with a switch in Texas, according to a person in the NFL familiar with the situation.

A grand jury in Montgomery County returned the indictment Friday afternoon, according to the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Peterson allegedly struck his young son, who spent the summer with the All-Pro running back in Texas, with a switch, according to the NFL source. The Vikings knew of the incident for several weeks, but thought Peterson had been cleared of all criminal charges, the source said.

The abuse allegations surfaced shortly after the child returned to his mother’s Minnesota home, according to the source, who said a doctor noticed “a mark” caused by a switch during a routine appointment.

Jay Z & Kanye West To Produce Chris Rock’s New Movie ‘Top Five’

IMG_3068.JPG

In a report by Deadline.com, Paramount Pictures has secured a $12.5 million bid to release Rock’s new movie, ‘Top Five’. The film is written and directed by the former SNL Legend, and co-stars Rosario Dawson, Gabrielle Union, Kevin Hart, Tracy Morgan, JB Smoove, and a host of others.

The film centers around Rock’s character “Andre Allen,” a comedic actor who’s seemingly lost his ability to be funny. Union plays his reality tv star girlfriend, while Dawson is the journalist trying to find out who the real Andre Allen is and what’s happened to him. Scott Rubin and Eli Bush take on the Producer roles of the film, with Jay Z and Kanye West listed as its Co-Producers. The star-studded comedy also enlists Questlove as the film’s Executive Music Producer, which should provide for a thoroughly entertaining flick down to the score.
