SMH at this broad. Didn’t Bow Wow tell her to quit Twitter a year and a half ago? While Bow Wow is still off the interwebs, sulking about his little “Who’s a hotter rapper/actor than me” faux pas , his mommy decided to hold him down by responding to a nasty rumor with these tweets: Here’s the thing though: when you read this blind item this morning, was Bow Wow even on your top ten of potential artists it could be? Way to go, Teresa.
What can a lil flirt hurt right?? If you think flirting will help you get ahead, think again. We’ve all done it. A seductive smile while negotiating a big purchase. Flirtatious banter with your cubicle neighbor or morning barista. That certain suggestive lilt that enters your voice when asking for help with a project. Those adept at the subtle art of flirting know that batting their lashes or casting a longing look can be a form of social power, sometimes useful in securing an advantage or ally. Career experts like Nicole Williams, author of “Girl on Top,” advocate using every tool available to you to gain an edge in the workplace. Although it often goes unspoken, many executives agree. “Flirting?” asked one woman. “I call it efficiency.” How can one tell the difference between two people who relate to one another having a pleasant conversation and two people intimating that they want to bump uglies? Well psychologist Simon Rego, director of the Cognitive Behavior Therapy Program at Montefiore Medical Center in New York defines it for us: “Flirting is the suggestion of the possibility, but not the probability, of something sexual occurring between two individuals,” says But sometimes flirting may have reverse effects that one may not have forseen. According to Rego, the danger arises from misreading the context and the other person’s perspective. “In a bar, it will be perceived differently than being pulled over for speeding,” he notes. But flirting with a police officer to get out of a ticket is at least worth a try, right? Not necessarily, says Rego. An officer who might have been willing to give you a break before, may be insulted by the obvious manipulation, thinking: You think I’ll bend the rules for a little bit of flirting? Suddenly, they’re more apt to put you in your place. The workplace is especially ripe for misunderstandings or harsh judgments. David Nour, author of Relationship Economics, says he frequently observes employees flirting to improve their position, be it a salesperson trying to build preference with a buyer or a professional hoping to gain priority on a project or land a promotion. Yet misreading the flirtee can result in questions about your intentions, credibility and character. At the very least, it could undermine the foundation of trust between you and your supervisor. Even worse, you may end up on the receiving end of unwanted advances, warns Nour. “Flirting at work is simply dangerous and very career limiting.” What do you think? Have you ever flirted with your boss or supervisor to get special treatment?? Did you ever receive any “hate” from fellow employees?? Source
What the hell is wrong with all these sick people that torture and abuse children. This week, police said that a 3-year old boy died after being tortured by the adults in his care. Jaquinn Brewton’s death was ruled a homicide when he was taken off life support. Police say that he was kicked, punched and had his hands, feet and rear end burned with a blowtorch. The boy’s god mother, 22-year old Nadera Batson was arrested and charged with murder. She was accompanied by her boyfriend, Marcus King, who has also been implicated in the boy’s death. Capt. James Clark of the Philadelphia Police Department says that the investigation revealed that Jaquinn was left by his mother with Batson and King in March when she went to a homeless shelter with her other five children. Jaquinn was found unconscious by police on June 29 when they were told that a child fell out of a window of a home in West Philadelphia. He was then taken to the hospital and left on life support until he died. “The little boy took all the pain that he could until he couldn’t take it anymore,” Clark said. He also noted that the abuse took place every day, in a systematic fashion. The Department of Human Services was not involved in the case. “It’s just unconscionable to think that someone would do this to a 3-year-old,” Clark said. “I have 22 years in the police department and this is one of the saddest cases I’ve seen.” Lock ‘em up, throw away the key.

SMH at this broad “bragging about being a rich model” but can’t pay the 45K: Via TMZ. .. Law enforcement tells TMZ, model SueLyn Medeiros — we strongly recommend Googling her — was pulled over last night in Hollywood after colliding with a parked car, and when she opened her DeLorean’s gull-wing door, cops caught a “strong odor” of alcohol. Police administered a field sobriety test — and Medeiros, who had been driving with Claudia in the car, laughs the entire way through, prancing around barefoot … needless to say, cops weren’t impressed. Medeiros then blew a .14 — nearly twice the legal limit in California — and was placed under arrest. According to law enforcement, Medeiros bragged incessantly about being a rich model, and was extremely flirtatious with the officers. Medeiros is still in custody on $45,000 bail. As for the high bail amount, we’re told she had an unrelated warrant out for her arrest … but it’s unclear why. SMH again at the warrant…WTF is this chick into??? 45K is pretty hefty for DUI.
Looks like San Francisco Giants pitcher, Brian Wilson was really feeling himself at last night’s ESPY Awards. We wonder what Amar’e was thinking… We’re not sure what to say so we’ll let you figure this hot mess out. Are you feelin this get up?
The power of the P-U-*-*-Y A Bronx man stabbed his girlfriend to death on a balcony in full view of terrified neighbors Tuesday, then was shot by cops, police and witnesses said. The mayhem began about 8:30 a.m. when cops responded to a 911 call for a fight between the couple, identified by police sources as Terenace Williams and Frederick Mendez. The pair have a history of domestic violence incidents, police said. “When the argument started, everyone came outside,” said neighbor Tommy Brown, 38. “She didn’t want to have sex, she didn’t want to sleep with him. That’s what they were arguing about.” Cops arrived to find Mendez stabbing Williams and attempting to throw her off their third-floor apartment balcony on Needham Ave. in the Bronx, police said. “He had her by a headlock and kept stabbing her,” said neighbor Oscar Brinson, 47. “A woman kept saying, ‘Let her go!’ and he screamed, ‘No, she ruined my life!’” A cop fired at Mendez, hitting him two or three times, police sources said. Mendez screamed in pain and retreated into the apartment, locking himself inside. Cops on a neighboring balcony pulled Williams to safety. She was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, but could not be saved, cops said. Williams worked as a nurse, neighbors said. What’s sad is that it seems as if the folks in the building might have seen this coming… “That man is a crazy man,” said a neighbor across the hall from the couple who declined to give her name. “He was always so controlling. I told him to leave her alone all the time. He always complained about her, saying she’s a bad person.” All the women in this world and you trippin’ because one wouldn’t give you any?? That’s not playa, not playa at all… Source
This fool here!! After finding a way to mostly avoid headlines for the past few months, Pacman Jones was in Cincinnati last night doing what he does best: f*cking up. The folks at WLWT report that Jones, who now plays for the Bengals, was arrested early Sunday at a Cincinnati bar. He reportedly was intoxicated and disruptive. He allegedly got into an argument, and he allegedly was uncooperative when asked to leave. As Jones was being arrested, he reportedly struggled to get out of the handcuffs. Ultimately, two officers were required to restrain him. With the league taking the position (ridiculous as it may be) that the personal conduct policy applies even though the players are currently locked out, it’ll be interesting to see how Pacman’s latest legal entanglement impact his career, given his history. You big dummy. Source
Did they really think they could pull this off? An inmate who tried to hide in a suitcase to escape jail was sent packing back to his cell, Mexican authorities said. The man, aided by his 19-year-old common law wife, was busted as she tried to wheel him out of a prison in Chetumal in the Caribbean state of Quintana Roo, police said. Juan Ramirez Tijerina’s bungled prison break followed his conjugal visit with Maria del Mar Arjona. Tijerina is serving a 20-year stretch for illegal weapons possession stemming from a conviction in 2007. Police said Arjona looked nervous as she struggled to pull the suitcase, which also looked to be unusually heavy. When officers stopped her and opened the case, they found Tijerina curled up in the fetal position. Arjona now faces prison time for her role in the attempted escape, authorities said. Silly girl! Now she’s going to prison too! Give it up to the horny toads … they get an ‘A’ for effort. Comedy! Source
