Does Anderson Cooper have an opinion about Scientology?
























Picture is not related to the story but for all intent purposes of showing
the community how much Anderson Copper is respected as a Journalist.
This picture is of a fan, dedicating an area of her leg to him.


Our Favorite News anchor over at CNN has an opinion about Scientology and its origins. Friday nights airing of Anderson Cooper, Mr. Cooper interviewed ex-members of the Church of Scientology. In attempts to show us a look into the mind, of Tom Cruise on Tom Cruise, video. In speaking with the corespondent, Anderson Cooper, showed his concern for the symbols, and acronyms, focusing on the claims made by Tom cruise.

As far as Anderson's feelings towards the Church Of Scientology, lets just say he does not hold back his personal beliefs or feeling on the subject and it content. Anderson is known to have a personal convictions of the organization, as fraudulent and Pseudo-Science. Replaying a contentious interview with Scientology's head Inquisitor, with a focal point on the crimes of psychology.

Does Anderson have an opinion or is this an observation? If so, why does he feel as strongly as he does?

Anderson Copper is a rare gem in the world of legitimate reporting, whether it be TV or Paper Press. Anderson has taken on the Church not too long ago in history. The last investigation in the the Church, was in 2005. Introducing us to a vault in New Mexico, revealing symbols, which can best be seen from a choppers aerial position. These symbols carried much mystery to them, and not only that this vault was in proportions of a modern day bomb shelter, with Livestock and non perishables alike, Etchings in titaniums as well, containing L. Ron Hubbard's thoughts.

So the question is: Why an investigation of Scientology’s post Apocalypse dry land bunker?

What ever the answer is, Anderson Copper is not pleased with the events that has unfolded in the past decades. From what I can see, this will be a continued battle between traditionalist and the Cult-ture, Church of Scientology. With new recruits and high powered vehicles behind it such as Hollywood superstars, this will be an interesting battle to see unfold.

However I would like to know if this is a battle we want to see take place? Is the Church of Scientology A pseudo Scientific regime coupled with official ideas warped to fit, a mission we have yet to see unfold? Is this just the beginning of the Armageddon? Is this too much to ask, so early? Whatever it may be, many things come to mind and I am sure many are not pleased to see the way things have taken affect since Tom Cruise, its most outspoken member taking a stand to broadcast his feeling, in bringing more individuals to the Church of Scientology. Which is not limited to Issac Hayes, John Travolta, or Will Smith who is taking an interest in the Church.

So what is the goal? Does the COS know something that we should? Are they using age old ideas and churning them for their own purpose?

Tell me what you think.

Yeaooow Baby!

Open Letter to the presidential condidates

http://www.notablebiographies.com/news/images/unmk_04_img0162.jpg http://ww1.prweb.com/prfiles/2007/02/07/503654/Deepakwebpr.jpg http://www.rollingout.com/images/b2blog/wk03_22_07/bp_hou_BenChavis.jpg From various sources on the Internet I have been granted the opportunity to come across this open letter. Composed by the respective Deepak Chopra, Russell Simmons & Dr. Benjamin Chavis, to the predsidential condidates of the US of America.


























To

United States of America Presidential Candidates:

Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee,

Duncan Hunter, Dennis Kucinich,John McCain,

Barack Obama, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson

From:

Russell Simmons, Deepak Chopra, and Dr. Benjamin Chavis

January 17, 2008

Dear Presidential Candidate:

Millions of people across America and throughout the world are eager to hear and learn how you propose to provide effective leadership as the next President of the United States on the issues of overcoming poverty, addressing global warming and protecting the environment, promoting sustainable economic development, and striving to establish world peace. We have six specific questions for you to answer.

We know that you are aware we are living in a remarkable moment in human history when the vast masses of people on every continent are crying out for a higher standard and better quality of life.

The rising consciousness of a growing critical mass of people at the grassroots level is being manifested in the unifying spirit of millions who are praying, demanding, seeking, struggling and working for a real, positive and redemptive change in their own lives and communities. There are millions who are making it abundantly clear that when given the opportunity to participate in the voting process, they will express their political and spiritual will as independent, young, new and conscious voters.

(1.) How do you view the importance of being open to welcome and to encourage a more inclusive political dialogue with those who may be at the margins of the political establishment or with those who may be at the distant edges of the perceived rigidity of the mainstream political parties?

We are in solidarity with all people without distinction as to gender, race, ethnicity, class, religion, lifestyle or orientation. We believe in the oneness of God and the oneness of humanity. Diversity is a blessing from the Creator.

(2.) How do you view the importance of diversity in our representative, constitutional democracy?

The United Nations has reported that if our government and other governments do not change their respective policies on how to protect, nurture and respect the sacred balance and equilibrium of the environment, the catastrophic consequences of global warming will become a certain destructive inevitability for future generations.

(3.) How will you use the office of President of the United States to work with the United Nations and other bodies to respond to the issue of global warming and to protect, nurture and respect the environment?

The latest statistical 2007 report from the U.S. Census Bureau on Income, Poverty and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States documents the persistence of poverty, income disparities and inadequate health insurance coverage for millions of people. They are suffering from the consequences of the lack of effective governmental leadership on the issue of poverty.

(4.) Specifically, what is your plan of action to eliminate poverty in America?

The 2008 U.S. Presidential Election is one of the most important elections in our lifetime. Calls for a real change in leadership, direction, public policy and governmental action are growing daily. The election results from the Iowa Caucuses and the New Hampshire Primary reveal the core of concern not only for the need for change domestically, but there is also a growing transformation in the conscience of Americans concerning the issues of war and peace. The war in Iraq should be brought to an end as soon as possible.

(5.) What do you intend to do to end the war in Iraq?

Most recently, some have unadvisedly attempted to interject the race card into the Presidential campaign. There are many in the political sphere from time to time that make a reference to the dream and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. One of the important characteristics today about the growing awareness and participation of the "hip-hop generation" of young voters is their transcendent state of mind on the issue of race. In fact, Dr. King believed in "the beloved community" where all human beings are treated equally with mutual respect, justice and love.

(6.) As President of the United States, how will you exemplify leadership domestically and internationally toward the fulfillment of "the beloved community"?

We would like to receive your timely responses to our open letter and the six questions highlighted. Your answers will be shared unedited with millions of people via the media: print, television, radio and the Internet throughout the world. We will also directly transmit your answers to our mail and e-mail lists, websites, constituencies and demographic of people and communities that desire to make informed decisions and to make a positive difference in the outcome of the election of the next President of the United States.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Russell Simmons Deepak Chopra Dr. Benjamin Chavis

American Gangter: Hit with a law suit?

http://insomniacmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/american-gangster.png The makers of American Gangster are being hit with a $55million libel suit. Three former DEA agents have claimed defamation of character. They feel that the movie has inaccurately portrayed them and is now seeking monetary damages. They have strong feelings against being portrayed as criminals and how their role in taking down Frank Lucas has diminished to petty acts of corruption. Former DEA agents Gregory Korniloff, Louis Diaz and Jack Toal took legal action Wednesday against NBC Universal, Stating that it( the movie) falsely claims the cinematic account of real life Harlem drug kingpin Frank Lucas was based on a true story, reports the Associated Press. Magic word here is Based on, not the entire story, but based on. It is a Cinematic account.

“With this utterly false and defamatory statement, the defendant has ruined and impugned the reputations of these honest and courageous public servants in the eyes of millions of people,” said the suit, which seeks class action status.

——————–

NBC Universal, owned by General Electric, denied the allegations, saying: “American Gangster does not defame these, or any, federal agents. The end legend specifically refers to members of ‘New York City’s Drug Enforcement Agency’ — not the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, where the plaintiffs formerly worked. We believe the lawsuit is entirely without merit.” [ SOURCE ]

Well it seems that The producers of the film have some work on their hands, however, if the agents have a good lawyer, he would most likely find a way to overlook the BASED ON , disclaimer and go straight for the throat. I am interested in seeing how this plays out.

Rihanna Spotted with Chris Brown's Jacket on

Photobucket

Seen in LAX airport recently Rihanna had a CBE (Chris Brown Entertainment) Jacket on. Perhaps this Jacket is a token of his appreciation for allowing him to express himself and show how he felt about her, on the Umbrella remix. In which the young crooner, belted out some of the best harmonies we've heard in a long time.

Well I am going to leave it at that, I am sure the Rumor Mill is working double time, and I will have my story in full sooner than later.

Yeaooow Baby!

Someone at Amazon.com does not like Janet Jackson

Photobucket

Allegedly, someone at Amazon, does not like Janet Jackson. They showcased the distastes , by allegedly posting her album up for sale with the words flop in the title Bill of sale. what would lead someone to do this?

From what I have read so far, it seems that an angry fan called the offices at her record label, however someone has yet to do something about it.

I have not comment on this one.

Rihanna is an inspiration: Marc Jacobs

Photobucket

Sources states that Marc Jacobs has taken a liking to Rihanna. So much so that he is naming a bag after her. The Rhianna bag should be a luxury sack with the price range bouncing in the realm of $1,650.00-$2,075.00

Rihanna you inspire me to do many things, in your name, and making a bag is not one of them. Did I just write that? Yeaoow Baby!

Untraceable-Diane Lane

This movie has a great concept. It will be interesting to see how well they have implemented this for the masses to see. From the trailer is seems as if we have a, highly intricate, nail biter on our hands.

Venus Williams-Oh my did he have to say something

Well as you may have heard the buzz is on, pertaining to Venus Williams and her beautiful rump. But here in the states and down under it is nothing new, that Venus Williams has more than a pair of shorts can hold in. What makes this a special occasion is that it has been commented on by the announcer. Although his co announcer, tried to clean it up, the comment was heard loud and clear.

Bizzare of D12: Has it come to this?



With the recession hitting us and the war costing us as much as it has over the past decade, yes I said decade, Job being closed off or people being fired. We are seeing an all time low. Forget Reality TV, their is a new movement, no writer needed. All you need is this simple kit of a lighter, a prepaid phone, and a old joint your found in an ashtray, for the low cost of 3 easy installments of 22.22, forget it, if you call now, make that two easy payments of $22.22 but this will only last till January 19th.

Apparently Bizarre of D12, Fame is willing to lend his services for the low cost of $750.00, for one verse on anyones song. It seems that he is willing to do you a huge favor. But you have to keep in mind this guys name is Bizarre from the dirty dozen(D12) and why would he not do something like this?

I think he should just talk to Eminem, the Marshall M. himself. Just a thought, but who am I to say.

Watch the video it speaks for itself. Times are hard or is Bizarre lending a helping hand to the new comers. You decide and let me know how you feel.

Tom Cruise spokesman for the Church of scientology

Dear Mr. Cruise


Many things have passed through my mind on how to approach you about your mission. In no way am I not saying your mission is not legitimate, however it may sound as if I feel other wise. This may be a lack of better words. However what I have to say, I hope will jog your mind and bring you back from that cloud you have been on all these years.

I am curious to know what is your overall goal and purpose? Are you attempting to convert the country, the continent or just the majority of Hollywood( bye Will, Love I am legend though)?

The points that you have made are perfect points, and I think, if you take the time out to read many of the manuscripts, such as the new testament, in the Holy bible, you will see that, Christians are taught to do the same, as well as other religions are taught to help a man or woman when they are down( so any true Christian will stop to help).

These concepts are not new and are perfect in assisting mankind in being more fruitful. Will Smith was right, most of the ideas are a part of what Christians have been teaching, and I would like to add that the Torah teaches these principles as well. Love thy neighbor as you love thy self. The problem we see in the world is, the fact that people do not love themselves any-more. With Plastic Surgery, botox and other cosmetic procedures, the human no longer have the option to learn to love themselves. So how is it possible to love thy neighbor?

What you need to focus on when you go out, is to take aim at one of the main components in society today and that is self hatred and lack of self acceptance. You are not alone when you take on this mission. The clergy feels this way, as most other men/women, of their respective doctrine and religious focuses.

In no way am I the authority, I just needed to write this and get it off of my chest. I appreciate it you have taken the time out to read this. If you find any qualms with what I had to say, please feel free to leave a comment(s) or e-mail me. What do I know? But I know how I feel.

What's with these statements :

Eva Longoria and Parker Fighting?


From what I hear Eva and Parker, are taking the nose dive. Parker, is makes comments that seem he has no conviction about not playing on another court and scoring points and without his teammate Eva. Allegedly Eva became infuriated when Parker chimed in on a conversation about receiving Oral sex His statement was "a mouth is a mouth" and Eva in turns questions him, asking him "What do you mean, so you will take sex from anyone"? Somehow I think she is more angry at the fact that she cant believe he said it" My thoughts on this, that he said it in public, I am sure she know how this guy is. Which I think she has selective hearing on this one and went off before the bell rang. I understand that his comment may implicate that he may be this way, however this is a conversation they should have at home and not in public view. People stop airing your dirty laundry outside of the home. Yes we want to see it, but damn, we don't need to, you see where I am going with this? It is important that you keep up your images so that we can enjoy your movies, and basket ball games with not reservations as to who you are at home. However keep it up, you may my job that much easier. Now that is Enter-Political YEOOOW BABY!

Throwback video of the day-Special ED



There was a time; when I could not stay away from the radio. A time when the music had vision, purpose, and high levels of lyrical creativity. At this point in time, were are living in, the music is not the same. I had to start this off by posting a video that showcased, the true fabric of Hip-Hop and what it means to be an MC and not just a Rapper chasing your champagne wishes and fish egg dreams.

This is were some of the greatest artist of today, such as Jay-Z, received that calm and collected swagger, and Mic Control(MC) from. No Gimmicks or fillers, just pure Lyrics and beats. I hope that you have enjoyed this installment.

Paula Abdul in need of a body guard

Paula Abdul is back and so if every other potential stalker from the 1st to the 50th state and around the globe. Apparently Paula has met her biggest fan last night and was more amused than fearful. However Simon was not having it, and Randy, well the look on his face says it all.

Look at this guys face! It appears he wants to eat her, or share in a hunting session in the year 1,000,000 BC. What ever it may be, I just found out that this show had security guards in the audition room. Which is my bad I should have known this.

Silver prada Phone unveiled-LG-KE850

The LG-KE850 is now available in silver and endorsed by Prada. If getting chewed out by the wife, will look good, why not stay out later with the guys. Maybe ordering takeout on the way home, will feel more satisfying and the guilt of eating it alone, because you are late will not be their.

Rihanna head out for New Tattoo

The past weekend, Rihanna was seen shopping for a new piece of body art. I wonder how many she has so far? However many they may be, here are some pictures of the shopping trip.




Movie to reconsider: Pathfinder





Ok we are back with a movie that needs a second look. This week, we have Pathfinder Directed by Marcus Nispel, Acclaimed director of the 2003 Chain Saw Massacre.

Many Have Criticized Marcus Nispel with poor direction in his work and no originality, coupled with poor creativity and focus. This film has not received the recognition that it deserves and the acting is not as bland as most will like to portray it as. Some has decided the costumes which were from a Native American Visual Perspective, to be total exaggerations. That was the point of the Director and costume department, to give us a glimpse of from a Native American Perspective, in this turn of the century Fictionalized piece.

In which you the viewer must keep in mind, that this movie is a Hypothesis, as to what may have taken place and by no means is an account of entire facts. However most fail to realize this major point, in there goal to critique. In no way was Marcus Nispel and his cast attempting to put this off as a factual account, but as a period piece to draw us closer to what may have happen at the turn of the century.

As far as the Directing is concerned a great job was done in setting the tone, the proper filters in place, the backdrop, and the actors Karl Urban, Russell Means, Moon Bloodgood, Ralph Moeller, and Clancy Brown did an absolute job bringing this story to the screen.

Do not forget how Star Trek was received, Do not forget how Star Wars was received. Some Films get their cult status from home use, and then once the concepet sets in, it will forever shape, they way movies are made.

So I think that it could have been better? Yes I feel that is could have better fight sequences and originality in the those sequences that were shown. Overall I give the film a rating of 3 boxes of Raisinettes out of 5, and a 1/2 bag of homemade popcorn, and a smuggled-in bottle of Pepsi. So you should have seen it at the movies, however it is on DVD and you should check it out or add it to your collection. It is great entertainment for those who like action sequences. So take 99 minutes out of your all so boring weekend night, and check this film out, you will be entertained, invite some buddies over, or your significant other and have a good time.

Oprah to run her own Network

http://www.ireporter.tv/Upload/www.oprahsschool.com/oprah%20winfrey.jpg



































Oprah Winfrey the popular talk show host of the show by the same name. Will now be in charge of running her own network
which has been reported recently.

The main focus will be to drive the Network Discovery Health, in the same direction she has her show over the past years. With a prime focus on her standout topics of overall well being. The Network will take over her website in turn for her to become chair of the network. The Bartering of her Site for a position, is it a smart move?

I think she can do it, as powerful as her presence is. However she will take this as another opportunity to brand this station. Possibly bringing out her stable of contributors, in which may be apart of the programming.

Whats Bubbling: Hot on the Billboard charts

Blazin Report: Entertainers Named in Steroids Probe.

Photobucket

Recently reported, several entertainers have been named in a Steroid probe. However are, not part of an ongoing investigation.


Entertainers such as 50 cent, May J. Blige, Wyclef, Timbaland, and others are on this list. On Sunday January 13, 2008, this list was manifested from an ongoing probe, due to the trafficking of the performance enhancing drug. Attorney P. David Soares, launched the investigation last year, and these are the alleged findings and names.


My Opinion
As far as I am concerned, it seems that you need to be strong to pick up a Microphone, and maintain your stage presence. Some of the artist on this list bank on the ability to has mass and strength. It is apart of who they are and makes up what we enjoy about them. Staying in shape and projecting that image of true stature.

Random spotlight



This is my what the @$%@$^, picture of the day. I would like to know what is the fashion cause behind the
skinny jeans? Why are guys thinking it is OK to wear them, and what next full skit sets and shrugs? Something has to be
done, he looks like the offspring of Pharell Williams and  Amy Whinehouse, not offense but  this needs to stop.
On top of that is the Yellow color, the purple sneakers. This look as if her
was slapped with a can of paint and Barney our favorite Dino, has taken a wizz on his feet.
