One more reason why you should just say no Wrong Number Drug Calls To Police Officer’s Cell Lead To Arrests This is your brain on drugs…. Sheriff’s Deputy Jagger Naves of Rowan County, N.C. was a very popular man last Monday when his cell phone rang four separate times around 4 a.m. The calls came from four different people who mistakenly contacted the deputy to complain about drug purchases. They all got arrested. The Salisbury Post reported some of the calls to Deputy Naves complained about the quantity of drugs they had purchased and wanted him to correct the problem. Naves arranged to meet all four of them to “solve” the problem. SMH. Source

Standardized Test For Kindergartners Being Developed Are you smarter than a……..5-year-old? Educators want to put them to the test. A new digital tool to test academic and behavioral skills will target students starting in kindergarten. ACT, the organization that developed the ACT college-entrance exam, will start testing the tool in the fall. It will be available to schools starting in 2014.The tool tracks students’ career interests, academic performance and progress toward goals. It’s designed to follow students from kindergarten through high school. Jon Erickson, president of ACT’s education division, said the goal is to identify and address gaps in skills needed for college and the workforce. The assessment combines traditional testing with teacher-led projects to generate an instant, digital score. It’s a multimillion dollar project, ACT officials said, but will be affordable and easily accessible. Schools won’t be compelled to use the new tool, but Erickson said he anticipates that entire states or groups of states will choose to utilize it. The tool can be customized to include state-specific benchmarks and other performance measures. Hmmm. What do you think Bossip readers? Is Kindergarten too soon to test academic skill levels for admission? Source

This isht is gettin’ uglier than Seal crying! Tameka Foster Threatens To Names Celebrities That Usher Cheated On Her With Usher’s custody battle with his ex-wife Tameka Foster is heating up. And now, In Touch has learned the mother of Usher’s two young sons, Usher V, 4, and Naviyd, 3, is threatening to air all of the former couple’s dirty laundry. In an Atlanta courtroom on May 21, fighting for rights to see his two boys, the 33-year-old singer was visibly shaken when talking about Usher V and Naviyd. “They give me purpose,” Usher tearfully explained. “I used to be begged to come home. Now I’m begging to come home to be able to spend some time with them.” But Usher’s tearful pleas are falling on deaf ears. An insider tells In Touch that 44-year-old Tameka is now threatening to name several big stars she insists her ex husband slept with during their tumultuous two-year marriage, which ended in 2009. But Tameka might want to think twice about her spiteful tactics against Usher, who is now happily dating Def Jam record executive Grace Miguel, 44. “Though she’s trying to paint Usher as a wild party boy with a huge sexual appetite, it’s backfiring and making her look bad,” says the insider. “Everyone’s testifying that she’s the one displaying erratic behavior.” We don’t care HOW upset Tameka is with Usher, this is just low-down and dirty. That man is father of her children, and all she wants to do is embarrass him in front of them. SMH But we’d be lyin’ if we said we didn’t wonder what names she has on the tip of her tongue… Image via WENN Source

Oh he’s flaming alright. DC Comics Relaunches Green Lantern As Gay We’re starting to feel like these days EVERYBODY is gay … DC Comics said Friday that Alan Scott, the original Green Lantern — a superhero first introduced in 1940 — will be reintroduced as gay in “Earth 2” issue two, hitting stores next Wednesday. The storyline was born out of the publisher’s reboot of their whole fictional universe last year, which reintroduces the heroes as younger versions of themselves again. The reboot effectively wrote out of existence Scott’s openly gay adult son, the superhero Obsidian. “I was sort of putting the team together and I realized one of the only downsides to relaunching the Justice Society as young, vibrant heroes again was that Alan Scott’s son was no longer going to exist in the reboot,” says “Earth 2” series writer James Robinson, who wrote a 1998 storyline about Obsidian that featured the first gay superhero kiss in comics. “I thought that was a shame and then it occurred to me, why not just make Alan Scott gay.” The revelation comes at a boon time in the industry for rainbow pride. In the pages of Marvel’s “Astonishing X-Men” last week, superhero Northstar proposed to his longtime boyfriend — setting up next issue’s superpowered same-sex wedding. DC Comics also has a lesbian superhero, Batwoman, patrolling the streets of Gotham City in her own comic. “When I was growing up, I’d read comics or watch TV and I wished there were characters who I could relate to, who I knew had gone through what I was going through,” says GLAAD spokesman Rich Ferraro. “Today’s LGBT young people can see gay characters in comics, movies and many TV shows who show them that they too can grow up to be parents, leaders, or even superheroes.” But not everyone is thrilled. The group One Million Moms Thursday called for a boycott of comic books featuring gay superheroes. “Children mimic superhero actions and even dress up in costumes to resemble these characters as much as possible,” the conservative group said in a statement. “Can you imagine little boys saying, ‘I want a boyfriend or husband like X-Men?’ ” Yeah, because it just wouldn’t be a realistic superhero story if there wasn’t a gay character… Cuz comics are “so real” right? GLAAD out here reprogramming EVERYBODY! Do you think kids should be exposed to more examples of gay folk in their comics and entertainment? Source DC Comics
