Two people have been killed in a college parking lot in Kentucky, according to reports. The shooting occurred as a result of domestic dispute; a gunman fired into a vehicle, killing a man and a woman and wounding a 12-year-old girl. He has been charged with murder and attempted murder. The violence late Tuesday in a college parking lot locked down the campus as police searched the two buildings of Hazard Community and Technical College. Hazard, Ky., Police Chief Minor Allen said the shooting resulted from a dispute between the alleged gunman and a woman who was one of those killed. Dalton Stidham, 21, was charged with two counts of murder, 20-year-old Caitlin Cornett and her uncle, 53-year-old Jackie Cornett, and one count of attempted murder. The wounded girl was Jackie Cornett’s daughter, and remains in critical condition Wednesday morning at University of Kentucky Medical Center in Lexington. Caitlin Cornett, a student at the college, and Stidham had a child together and met to exchange custody of the child. Police aren’t sure what led to the shooting. College President Stephen Greiner said that at the time of the shooting, there were probably about 30 students on campus, and that staff responded quickly. “Our thoughts and sympathy are with the families of the victims of this tragedy,” he said.

He was an amazing father.” Bain is survived by his daughter and three sons. We send the family our condolences.
Stans, your fearless leader King Bey speaks, listen up… At this point man, woman, and child has been captivated by Beyonce’s GQ cover Well just in case you thought Bey was gonna be all bikini and no brains, she takes the time speak on the power of the p-u-$-$-Y woman in today’s society. Get a load of this… Via Guardian On financial empowerment: “Equality is a myth, and for some reason everyone accepts that women don’t make as much money as men do,” she rails. “I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let’s face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what’s sexy. And men define what’s feminine. It’s ridiculous.” Preach sista! Knowles is right: it is ridiculous that American women earn 77 cents to every dollar earned by men. This is almost as ridiculous as, say, a self-professedly powerful female celebrity (“I’m more powerful than my mind can even digest,” announces Knowles) complaining about men defining sexiness in a men’s magazine in which she poses nearly nekkid in seven photos, including one on the cover in which she is wearing a pair of tiny knickers and a man’s shirt so cropped that her breasts are visible. These photos, incidentally, were taken by the bafflingly successful American photographer, Terry Richardson, a man with a penchant for highly sexualised photos of women and who has been repeatedly accused of sexual exploitation and misconduct by young female models, which Richardson has denied. To complain about the sexualization of women in men’s magazines may seem like complaining about the weather. But as Knowles rightly says in relation to the pay gap, the status quo should not just be shruggingly accepted if it is wrong. I never fail to be amazed at the high profile, often A-list women who celebrate their professional success by posing near nekkid on the covers of allegedly classy men’s magazines, such as Esquire and GQ, and these covers are, to my eyes, becoming increasingly close to freak flicks. Look at Bey tryna be all deep and stuff. Are you buying what she’s selling or do you think this all part of her plan to “re-invent” herself?? Image via Terry Richardson
Kate Middleton is a working mom-to-be, at least for the time being. Well, at least to the degree that British royal family members work. While she was initially hospitalized with morning sickness and confined to bed rest, she will not be giving up her public engagements for the time being. “The duchess, health permitting , will continue to undertake engagements in the near future,” a Palace rep said, adding that no timeframe has been set. Good to know Middleton mania won’t be taking half a year off. According to yesterday’s official Kate Middleton due date announcement, it’s sometime in July, meaning we have a solid five or six months of bump watch coming.
It has been confirmed by the Associated Press: In an interview taped tonight with Oprah Winfrey, Lance Armstrong admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs during his days as a professional cyclist. Lance Armstrong Admits to Drug Use: Report The rumor of such an admission has been circling for days, with Armstrong apologizing over the weekend to members of his Livestrong foundation. It remains unclear exactly what Armstrong told Winfrey – the interview airs on OWN Thursday night – which will be important in terms of the lawsuits that have already been filed against Armstrong. The former world champion was stripped of all seven Tour de France titles last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency released a 1,000-page report that painted him as a drug user and drug pusher, someone who manipulated the system and pressured fellow riders to follow his methods. Led by Armstrong, the U.S. Postal Service team carried out “the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen,” according to Travis Tygart of the USADA. Through years of allegations, Armstrong both denied any kind of drug use and reacted combatively against those who leveled the charge against him. Why come clean now? He supposedly wants to be free to compete in sanctioned marathons and triathlons . Teased Oprah in a Tweet not long after chatting with the disgraced athlete: “Just wrapped with @lancearmstrong More than 2½ hours. He came READY!”
Having trimmed the field from 26 to 19 in last Monday’s premiere, Sean Lowe resumed his quest for Mrs. Right in the second episode of The Bachelor Season 17. Did Sean come into his own this week, or is he still reserved as he gets to know the aspiring wives? Who produced the most drama tonight? What kind of absurd dates were we subjected to? Will it work out for Sean? Check out The Bachelor spoilers if you’re impatient and want to know … then follow along for THG’s Season 17 Episode 2 recap! Shirtless Sean, right off the bat. Plus 10. And Plus 5 for the shower scene. Chris has the first date card. Kristy the model steps up to open it and doesn’t have her arms clawed off. Way to show restraint, ladies! Sarah gets the first date and Sean picks her up in a helicopter. Because a limo just wasn’t good enough. Or a regular car. This is the biggest dream come true of Sarah’s life so far. And he hasn’t even proposed yet. She’s easy to please. For their first date, there’s a champagne toast. At the bottom of the skyscraper. So they’re free falling 300 feet to get to the champagne. If I had to free fall 300 feet, there better be more than just a toast at the bottom. There better be a whole bottle of something stronger than champagne. And I might even need that liquid courage before beginning the drop. But not Sarah. She’s game for this craziness. She’s a bundle of nerves, but she’s game. Plus 5 . “This is gonna be fun. Just you and me taking a nice leisurely fall down the side of a building.” Sean Lowe, ladies and gentlemen. He’ll be here all season. They made it and no one peed. Good job, you two. Plus 3 . During the dinner portion of their date, Sarah tells the story of the time she was told she couldn’t go zip-lining because of her disability. I think Sean is on the verge of tears. Back at the house, the next date card arrives. Date #2 is a group date with Kristy, Amanda, Brooke, Lesley M., Daniella, Katherine, Robyn, Katie, Selma, Diana, Taryn, Kacie, and Tierra. So 13 of the remaining 19 girls. A recipe for drama, perhaps? Here’s hoping. Because so far Sarah and Sean’s date is drama-free. Sarah’s angling for a rose. Sean obliges her. She’s sticking around. And there’s the first kiss of the season. Plus 8. And she’s falling in love with him after the first date. Minus 12. It’s ONE DATE, Sarah. One. Simmer, lady. The 13 ladies on the group date are hitting the minibar in the limo. Yes! Drunk girls bring the drama! For their group date, they’re going to be cover models for Harlequin romance novels. Bodice rippers. And Sean’s shirtless again. And the drama begins. Robyn can’t stand Tierra. She “doesn’t appreciate” Tierra’s personality. So she decides to mock Tierra while sitting right next to Tierra and drags the make-up artist into it. Then Robyn calls her a “tacky ho.” Classy, Robyn. Classy. Minus 15 . Lesley’s making an impression on Sean. The costume helps, no doubt. So does the photographer who instructs them to kiss and ramps up the rage among the other 12 ladies. Tierra flips a switch when she’s with Sean. It’s easy to see why the other girls don’t like her because the person she is with Sean isn’t the person she is with the girls. Not that I can blame her, really. She’s not there for them. Kristy’s photo shoot is hot. Like, HOT hot. Smoking, even. And she gets a three-book cover deal with Harlequin. But she’s a model professionally, so this was in her wheelhouse. Meh. Plus 4. After the photo shoot they all head to a pool party. Except no one goes swimming. Minus 3. Lesley gets Sean alone first. He asks why she’s there and she says, reluctantly, “it’s for love.” Sean wants to kiss her, but she keeps nervous talking and ruining the moment. Shut her up, Sean! Kiss her already! Minus 8 . Lesley watches all the other girls taking their turns with Sean and questions her Southern sensibilities. She steels herself up and goes in for the kiss. Get it, Lesley! Plus 9 . Kacie and Sean take a turn together and she tells him she was “pleasantly surprised” and “completely caught off guard” by the fact that she developed a crush on him during their events together. He says he’s excited that she’s there, but he seems a little reluctant to pursue things. He does tell her he wants to explore things and see if there’s something more there, but it feels like he’s being the nice guy. Catherine tells the lamest joke ever: “I’m vegan, but I love the beef.” No rim shots necessary for this one. Minus 13. Tierra’s not well-liked by the other girls. Sean’s even picking up on the fact that she’s an outsider in the house. But she tells him she’s there for him and not for the girls and that seems to be enough. Back at the house, Sarah, who’s been on a date, picks up the next date card. Desiree’s going on a one-on-one. Katie feels “excessively uncomfortable” and doesn’t plan to compete. Kacie doesn’t think she’s long for the house since she’s so uncomfortable. Katie breaks up with Sean and he offers to walk her out. What a gentleman. Kacie, who knows how to play the game having done this once already, gets the date rose. Tierra’s unhappy, and that’s putting it mildly. Minus 4 . Bitterness isn’t pretty, Tierra. Sean’s taking Desiree out and he decides to punk his date to test her sense of humor. With Chris’ help, Sean sets up a display of “priceless” pieces of art, staffs the exhibit with fake patrons and artists, and plans to pretend that Desiree has broken one of the pieces in the collection. This is fantastic and it hasn’t even happened yet. Plus 5 . The artist’s name? Sven Molotovsky. As in molotov cocktail. Sean’s having second thoughts about punking Desiree. But not enough second thoughts to back out, of course. This is really too good for me to even type anything about it that’s even remotely coherent. He got her! And she passes his sense of humor test. Plus 18 . Now they’re going back to Sean’s place for dinner. Which is miraculously ready as soon as they walk in the door with no one but the two of them in sight. It like the kitchen is magic and I want one. Desiree admits that she doesn’t know much about Sean on purpose. They share stores of their families and it turns out they have a lot in common. Things seem comfortable with them. Comfortable enough to don a teeny bikini and get in the hot tub. And plus, shirtless Sean again. Plus 10 . Des has brought out “100%” of Sean and he gives her the rose. Plus 10 more. The dates are over, and the second cocktail party begins. Sean thinks he knows which two girls he’s sending home without even making it all the way through the party. Lindsay says she feels silly about her first impression and how much she drank at the first cocktail party. He assuages her guilt. There’s something about this girl’s laugh that’s just not okay. Poor Sean just keeps developing more and more feelings for more and more women and suddenly has no idea who to send home. Poor guy. Except this is sort of what you signed up for. Minus 10. Amanda is the “dark cloud” in the room. Des asks her how she feels and she says…nothing. Yep. She says nothing. Minus 8 . Robyn decides to broach the topic of race and The Bachelor . She’s seen the cultural diversity grow as the show has gone on and wants to know if that’s a stunt or if Sean’s really interested in the black women competing for his heart. If it’s possible, Sean got even more perfect with his answers to her. Amanda just continued to sneer and say nothing to anyone. Until Sean walked into the room and then suddenly she had a personality. Minus 15 . It’s time for another Rose Ceremony, but Sean needs to think first. So he goes off to do that while Chris tells the ladies that some of them will be going home. Sean gives roses to: AshLee Lindsay Robyn Jackie Lesley M. Selma Catherine Kristy Leslie H. Tierra Taryn Daniella Amanda Amanda? AMANDA? sourpuss AMANDA??? Sean. SEAN? What? Minus 40. Going home this week: Brooke Diana While he didn’t exactly have any time with either of them, AMANDA got a rose? AMANDA?? Oh, Sean. EPISODE TOTAL: -41 SEASON TOTAL: -22
Chad Johnson Defends Evelyn Lozada On Twitter Resident NFL misfit Chad Johnson has had plenty of time off to think about some of the recent decision-making of the last year that he might regret, but apparently wifing up rowdy reality chica Evelyn Lozada was not one of those things. One of Chad’s followers recently slammed Evelyn, asking the head-buttin’ former hubby why he’d put a ring on it, and he quickly went in, making it clear that insulting his girlfriend ex-boo thang is still a no-go: This definitely wasn’t the first time Chad’s heard some no-so-nice, slorebag-y things being said about hot headed ex banger boo…..wonder what made him respond this time? Our guess would be those BBW ‘cameo’ checks that are sure to start rolling in soon…SMH..
Even though Halle Berry is one of the biggest nuts in Hollywood I understand why men keep dating her; she’s got an awesome body with an amazing rack. Here they are displayed nicely in a revealing red dress at the BET Honors 2013 event. Anyway, it seems like she is now dating someone who is equally crazy as her so maybe this time her relationship will last. Doubtful.
I have been banned from Reddit for the longest time…I think my site is also banned from Reddit….I’m talking since the beginning….but I do like what they do….. I just heard one of the unofficial co-founders, Aaron Swartz just killed himself….and after doing some research on him….he was totally against online censorship…a fighter for the freedom of the internet….for people like you and me who use the internet and like the internet before the internet was being regulated…by the government. I am hit with copyright law all the time, being shut down in the USA has been an ongoing fear or real life issue for me….I know people who have been woken up by the FBI….with guns in their faces…and I am just like…dude it’s just the internet…. Either, He was 26. He fought a good fight. He could have done so much more. This is a real tragedy. Suicide is never an option…if suicide is really what went on here…seems like he’d be someone the government would want to stop…just sayin… Swartz was indicted in July 2011 by a federal grand jury for allegedly downloading millions of documents from JSTOR through the MIT network — using a laptop hidden in a basement network closet in MIT’s Building 16 — with the intent to distribute them.
