Champion boxer Floyd Mayweather was the in-studio guest on Hot 107.9 yesterday. Mayweather surprised everyone when he quit the sport of boxing live on the air!

He said he was “tired” from the stress of boxing. But the most shocking moment came when Mayweather promised to “whup Reggie Bush’s ass” for taking Kim Kardashian away from him! Lawd, why would anyone want to fight over THAT?

He said after he whups Reggie, he will “woo Kim” by buying her a red ferrarri with a red ribbon tied around it. It must be love (or too many left jabs to the dome).

Hot 107.9’s Mizz Shyneka has a knack for getting stars to open up and tell ALL they bidnezz on the air!

May 15) - Rex Jameson bikes and swims regularly, and plays tennis and skis when time allows. But the 5-foot-11, 180-pound software engineer is lucky if he presses 200 pounds — that is, until he steps into an “exoskeleton” of aluminum and electronics that multiplies his strength and endurance as many as 20 times.

Photo Gallery
Douglas C. Pizac, AP A Real-Life Iron Man?1 of 4 Under a two-year contract with the U.S. Army, a Salt Lake City-based robotics firm is testing a 150-pound suit that could create the soldier of the future. The suit can multiply its wearer’s strength and endurance as many as 20 times by sensing and almost instantly amplifying every movement the wearer makes. The Army plans initial field tests next year.

With the outfit’s claw-like metal hand extensions, he gripped a weight set’s bar at a recent demonstration and knocked off hundreds of repetitions. Once, he did 500.

“Everyone gets bored much more quickly than I get tired,” Jameson said.

Jameson — who works for robotics firm Sarcos Inc. in Salt Lake City, which is under contract with the U.S. Army — is helping assess the 150-pound suit’s viability for the soldiers of tomorrow. The suit works by sensing every movement the wearer makes and almost instantly amplifying it.

The Army believes soldiers may someday wear the suits in combat, but it’s focusing for now on applications such as loading cargo or repairing heavy equipment. Sarcos is developing the technology under a two-year contract worth up to $10 million, and the Army plans initial field tests next year.

Before the technology can become practical, the developers must overcome cost barriers and extend the suit’s battery life. Jameson was tethered to power cords during his demonstration because the current battery lasts just 30 minutes.

But the technology already offers evidence that robotics can amplify human muscle power in reality — not just in the realm of comic books and movies like the recently debuted “Iron Man,” about a wealthy weapons designer who builds a high-tech suit to battle bad guys.

“Everybody likes the idea of being a superhero, and this is all about expanding the capabilities of a human,” said Stephen Jacobsen, chief designer of the Sarcos suit.

The Army’s exoskeleton research dates to 1995, but has yet to yield practical suits. Sarcos’ technology sufficiently impressed Raytheon Co., however, that the Waltham, Mass.-based defense contractor bought Sarcos’ robotics business last November. Sarcos also has developed robotic dinosaurs for a Universal Studios’ “Jurassic Park” theme park ride.

Jack Obusek, a former colonel now with the Army’s Soldier Research Development and Engineering Center in the Boston suburb of Natick, foresees robot-suited soldiers unloading heavy ammunition boxes from helicopters, lugging hundreds of pounds of gear over rough terrain or even relying on the suit’s strength-enhancing capabilities to make repairs to tanks that break down in inconvenient locations.

Sarcos’ Jacobsen envisions factory workers someday using the technology to perform manual labor more easily, and firefighters more quickly carrying heavy gear up stairwells of burning buildings. Disabled people also may find uses for the technology, he said.

“We see the value being realized when these suits can be built in great numbers for both military and commercial uses, and they start coming down in cost to within the range of the price of a small car,” said Jacobsen. He declined to estimate how much the suit might cost in mass production.

But cost isn’t the only obstacle. For example, developers eventually hope to lengthen the suit’s backpack battery’s life and tinker with the suit’s design to use less energy. Meanwhile, the suit can draw power from a generator, a tank or helicopter. And there are gas engines that, while noisy, small enough to fit into the suit’s backpack.

“The power issue is probably the No. 1 challenge standing in the way of getting this thing in the field,” Obusek said.

But he said Sarcos appears to have overcome the key challenge of pairing super-fast microprocessors with sensors that detect movements by the body’s joints and transmit data about them to the suit’s internal computer.

Much as the brain sends signals to tendons to get muscles to move, the computer sends instructions to hydraulic valves. The valves mimic tendons by driving the suit’s mechanical limbs, replicating and amplifying the wearer’s movements almost instantly.

“With all the previous attempts at this technology, there has been a slight lag time between the intent of the human, and the actual movement of the machine,” Obusek said.

In the demonstration, the bulky suit slowed Jameson a bit, but he could move almost normally. When a soccer ball was thrown at him, he bounced it back off his helmeted head. He repeatedly struck a punching bag and, slowly but surely, he climbed stairs in the suit’s clunky aluminum boots, which made him look like a Frankenstein monster.

“It feels less agile than it is,” Jameson said. “Because of the way the control laws work, it’s ever so slightly slower than I am. And because we are so in tune with our bodies’ responses, this tiny delay initially made me tense.”

Now, he’s used to it.

“I can regain my balance naturally after stumbling — something I discovered completely by accident.”

Learning was easy, he said.

He was given $20 to watch his girlfriend’s daughter and feed her dinner.

But instead of taking care of the toddler, the 20-year-old man left the girl unattended in a car while he spent the cash plying topless dancers at a strip club, police said.

Alan Baxter, was arrested Saturday evening inside Shotgun Willie’s strip club on Colorado Avenue.

Police were called to the area by the manager of a nearby porn store, who saw the girl sitting by herself in a locked car. The manager of Fascinations said the girl looked afraid and seemed to “cower” in the rear seat, according to a police report obtained by 7NEWS.

The officer noted that there was no food or water in the car. It was 50 degrees outside and it may have been even colder in the car, where the window on the driver’s side was down about three inches, the officer said.

The porn store manager said he had seen the driver of the car walk into the strip club about a half-hour earlier.

Police questioned a man inside Shotgun Willie’s who fit the description of the driver and then arrested Baxter suspicion of child neglect.

Baxter’s man’s girlfriend told police that she had given him $20 to watch her daughter while she was at work.

The woman and her daughter were later reunited at the police station.

Vatican: It’s OK to believe in aliens

By ARIEL DAVID, Associated Press Writer Tue May 13, 4:07 PM ET

VATICAN CITY - Believing that the universe may contain alien life does not contradict a faith in God, the Vatican’s chief astronomer said in an interview published Tuesday.
ADVERTISEMENT

The Rev. Jose Gabriel Funes, the Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, was quoted as saying the vastness of the universe means it is possible there could be other forms of life outside Earth, even intelligent ones.

“How can we rule out that life may have developed elsewhere?” Funes said. “Just as we consider earthly creatures as ‘a brother,’ and ’sister,’ why should we not talk about an ‘extraterrestrial brother’? It would still be part of creation.”

In the interview by the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, Funes said that such a notion “doesn’t contradict our faith” because aliens would still be God’s creatures. Ruling out the existence of aliens would be like “putting limits” on God’s creative freedom, he said.

The interview, headlined “The extraterrestrial is my brother,” covered a variety of topics including the relationship between the Roman Catholic Church and science, and the theological implications of the existence of alien life.

Funes said science, especially astronomy, does not contradict religion, touching on a theme of Pope Benedict XVI, who has made exploring the relationship between faith and reason a key aspect of his papacy.

The Bible “is not a science book,” Funes said, adding that he believes the Big Bang theory is the most “reasonable” explanation for the creation of the universe. The theory says the universe began billions of years ago in the explosion of a single, super-dense point that contained all matter.

But he said he continues to believe that “God is the creator of the universe and that we are not the result of chance.”

Funes urged the church and the scientific community to leave behind divisions caused by Galileo’s persecution 400 years ago, saying the incident has “caused wounds.”

In 1633 the astronomer was tried as a heretic and forced to recant his theory that the Earth revolved around the sun. Church teaching at the time placed Earth at the center of the universe.

“The church has somehow recognized its mistakes,” he said. “Maybe it could have done it better, but now it’s time to heal those wounds and this can be done through calm dialogue and collaboration.”

Pope John Paul declared in 1992 that the ruling against Galileo was an error resulting from “tragic mutual incomprehension.”

The Vatican Observatory has been at the forefront of efforts to bridge the gap between religion and science. Its scientist-clerics have generated top-notch research and its meteorite collection is considered one of the world’s best.

The observatory, founded by Pope Leo XIII in 1891, is based in Castel Gandolfo, a lakeside town in the hills outside Rome where the pope has a summer residence. It also conducts research at an observatory at the University of Arizona, in Tucson.

Father jailed after daughter fails to get diploma

Join the Message Board

CINCINNATI - A man ordered by a judge to make sure his daughter studied has found himself in jail because she failed to earn a high school equivalency diploma.

Brian Gegner, who lives near Cincinnati, was sentenced last week to 180 days in jail for contributing to the unruliness or delinquency of a minor.

He was ordered months ago to make sure his 18-year-old daughter Brittany Gegner, who has a history of truancy, received the diploma known as GED — something that hasn’t happened yet.

Brittany Gegner, who said Monday that she plans to take a required GED test this month, said her father shouldn’t be blamed for her failure because she has been living with her mother.

“It was my wrongdoing, not his,” said Brittany Gegner, whose fiance and 18-month-old daughter also live at her mother’s home. “He shouldn’t have to go to jail for something I did.”

Her mother agrees.

“Brittany is almost 19 years old now and I think it’s unfair to put her father in jail,” said Shana Roach. “She’s an adult now, and it’s not right to rip an innocent man from his home.”

Juvenile Court administrator Rob Clevenger Jr. said Monday that the court still has jurisdiction in the case because Brittany Gegner was a juvenile when the truancy problems began and when the charge against Brian Gegner was filed in 2007.

A hearing on a motion filed by Brian Gegner’s attorney to reconsider the sentence is scheduled for Friday. Messages seeking comment were not returned Monday at the offices of defense attorney Tamara Sack and the prosecutor.

Brian Gegner’s wife, Stephanie Gegner, said she and her husband are afraid he will lose his job if he remains in jail. She said they tried to keep his daughter in school.

“You’d take her to school and she’d go out the other door,” Stephanie Gegner said.

Jewish code snarls probe into Crown Heights attack

BY LARRY McSHANE
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Friday, May 9th 2008, 4:00 AM

Long before the first rapper stopped snitching or any Mafiosi swore an oath of omertà, there was the Jewish law of mesira.

The tenet that forbids Jews from informing on fellow Jews is one of the hurdles facing Brooklyn prosecutors probing the April 14 attack on a black man by two Jewish men, sources told the Daily News.

Authorities - invoking a complaint long cited in cases involving rappers - said the initial probe was hindered by the local Hasidim’s refusal to cooperate.

One source suggested the Orthodox community was taking a page from the rap world’s “stop snitching” handbook. But it was actually lifted directly from the Code of Jewish Law.

“The Hebrew word is mesira, which means basically you are not allowed to be an informant,” said Rabbi Shea Hecht, a well-known figure in Crown Heights.

“In essence, I am not allowed to snitch, period.”

The attack in Crown Heights led Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes to empanel an investigative grand jury to try to shake loose reluctant witnesses. It’s the same technique prosecutors tried unsuccessfully in the slaying of rapper Busta Rhymes’ bodyguard in 2006.

Rhymes and about 50 other witnesses refused to cooperate with cops. Their decision was based on street cred. The slaying remains unsolved.

When college student Andrew Charles was attacked in Crown Heights by two men wearing yarmulkes last month, police quickly identified a suspect - the driver of the getaway SUV.

Menachem Ezagui came to the 71st Precinct stationhouse with a lawyer after the vehicle was discovered. Police sources said he refused to answer any questions.

Charles, 20, the son of a city cop, was walking on Albany Ave. when a bicycle-riding assailant sprayed him with Mace. The SUV then pulled up, with a second man jumping out to smash the college sophomore twice with a nightstick, police said.

Cops have made no arrests. A lawyer sought to broker a deal that would have led two Jewish suspects to surrender on reduced charges. Sources said the district attorney’s office rejected the deal, insisting the attack was too severe.

According to Hecht, mesira is not an all-encompassing concept - common sense supersedes the law, as does the responsibility of preventing injury to others. “You’re not allowed to stand on the blood of your brother,” he said.

That comes with a loophole, too. If Jews are convinced that one of their own will not get a fair shake from authorities, they have no obligation to cooperate.

“There are double standards - sometimes they work to your advantage,” Hecht said. “To think there’s no political element to justice in America would be foolish.”

LUTZ, Fla. — A mother and her two young children found dead in a mobile home north of Tampa had been mutilated and dismembered, authorities said.

Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee said on Tuesday that one body had been decapitated at the home in Lutz. The bodies were found on Monday morning.

Neighbor Tim Kelly told WTSP-TV that he heard a woman screaming outside of the victims’ mobile home.

“She was screaming, ‘He’s dead, he’s dead,’” Kelly said.

The victims were identified as Lisa Freiberg, 26, her 7-year-old son Zachary and her 2-year-old daughter Heather Savannah. The family’s dog also was killed.

Gee said more than one weapon was used, but no further information was released.

A man identified as Freiberg’s live-in boyfriend was found hiding in a closet in the home. His name is not yet known.

Gee said the man had ingested an unknown substance and was hospitalized for treatment.

No one has been charged.

Happy Mother’s Day: Woman Pregnant With 18th Child

Friday, May 09, 2008

It’s a happy Mother’s Day for an Arkansas woman — she’s pregnant with her 18th child.

Michelle Duggar, 41, is due on New Year’s Day, and the latest addition will join seven sisters and 10 brothers. There are two sets of twins.

“We’ve had three in January, three in December. Those two months are a busy time for us,” she said, laughing.

Click here for a photo essay of the Duggars.

The Duggars’ oldest child, Josh, is 20, and the youngest, Jennifer, is nine months old.

The fast-growing family lives in Tontitown in northwest Arkansas in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children — whose names start with the letter J — are home-schooled.

Duggar has been been pregnant for more than 11 years of her life, and the family is in the process of filming another series for Discovery Health.

The new show looks at life inside the Duggar home, where chores — or “jurisdictions” — are assigned to each child. One episode of the new show involves a “jurisdiction swap,” where the boys do chores traditionally assigned to the girls, and vice versa, Duggar said.

“The girls swapped jurisdictions, changing tires, working in the garages, mowing the grass,” she said. “The boys got to cook supper from start to finish, clean the bathrooms,” among other chores.

Dr. Manny Alvarez, the managing health editor for FOXNews.com, said he has seen other families who have a large number of children; however, the more children a woman has, the higher her chance for birthing complications.

“There can be bleeding complications at the time of the birth, due to overstretching of the uterus,” Alvarez said. “But, under the proper management, it can be done.”

Duggar said she’s six weeks along and the pregnancy is going well. She and her husband, Jim Bob Duggar, said they’ll keep having children as long as God wills it.

“The success in a family is first off, a love for God, and secondly, treating each other like you want to be treated,” Jim Bob Duggar said. “Our goal is for each one of our children to be best friends, and everybody working together to serve each other makes that happen.”

The other Duggar children, in between Joshua and Jennifer, are Jana, 18; John-David, 18; Jill, 16; Jessa, 15; Jinger, 14; Joseph, 13; Josiah, 11; Joy-Anna, 10; Jeremiah, 9; Jedidiah, 9; Jason, 7; James, 6; Justin, 5; Jackson, 3; and Johannah, 2.

The invitation comes after the release of Vanity Fair photos showing the 15-year-old clad only in a satin sheet with her back exposed. The images sparked considerable controversy and led to an apology from the young singer.

“I think to make such a big to do over something as innocent as those photos, I think is a reflection on how schizophrenic America is about sexuality,” said Hefner.

The next Call of Duty game may not delve back into familiar WWII territory after all, as Activision CEO Mike Griffith reveals that the fifth game will take the series to a “new military theatre”.

Despite rumours and strong reactions that the series would be returning to the over-used WWII era, Griffith revealed: “We’ll bring the intensity of the recent Call of Duty: Modern Warfare title to a new military theatre to engage our significantly larger user base which nearly doubled last year as new users came into the franchise,” according to Gamespot.

Another modern setting would get our vote (we’re bored of those crappy 1940s guns and sluggish propeller-powered planes).

Griffith also revealed that the next James Bond game, in development as Treyarch, will use the CoD 4 engine, which is good news. The first good 007 game since GoldenEye? Maybe, just maybe..

Arresting illegals trying to leave the United States. That makes sense.

The government has a new approach to border enforcement. Instead of just focusing on people who are entering the country illegally, the Los Angeles Times says federal agents are also arresting undocumented foreigners who are trying to leave the United States.

The paper reports that U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have been stopping vehicles and checking the immigration status of travelers near the San Diego-Tijuana border crossing.

“The illegal immigrants they apprehend are typically turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol for processing,” according to the paper. “Unless they have serious criminal records or numerous immigration violations, most are returned to Mexico within a few hours.”

Officials wouldn’t tell the Times how many people have been picked up during these random sweeps.

Prime Minister Bruce Golding has announced that the island’s buggery laws will not be repealed, despite enormous international pressure.

Egale Canada, a human rights group based in Toronto, Canada, recently announced its intention to call for a tourism boycott of the island, as well as a ban on the country’s goods and services. The group issued a May 12 ultimatum on the Jamaican Government and threatened to make a public announcement five days later, encouraging the ban if its demands were not met.

The group appealed for the production of public service announcements denouncing homophobia/transphobia, called for a national homophobia/transphobia education campaign and lobbied for the abolition of the buggery law and any other law that stigmatises or criminalises consensual same-sex acts.

The Jamaica Hotel and Tourist Association (JHTA) had expressed concern about the threats, and added that the Canadian market was a particularly viable one. Wayne Cummings, head of the JHTA, told THE STAR in an earlier interview, “They are a very forward-thinking, liberal country, and I’m sure there may be some credibility to the argument that they could affect us.”

Ignoring the issue

However, Prime Minister Golding, speaking at his post-budget press briefing at Jamaica House yesterday, said he has seen nothing yet to cause him to consider a review of the buggery laws. The prime minister, who has been accused of ignoring the issue by the Jamaica Forum for Lesbians, All-Sexuals and Gays (JFLAG), said: “There is a road down which I’m not going to allow this country to go under my leadership.”

He also voiced his opposition to same-sex marriages. “There are people who use the same philosophical kind of basis to seek, for example, legislative changes to redefine marriage so that marriage in law must mean something different from what marriage is now. Once we embark on that express way I am not certain at what point we are going to get off.”

He continued, “As far as this prime minister is concerned, marriage means a union sanctified and endorsed by law between a man and a woman. And I don’t want to speak with any ambiguity about where this yah prime minister rest.”

Sharpton Arrested in Protests

The Rev. Al Sharpton and C. Vernon Mason, advisers to Tawana Brawley, and nine other demonstrators were arrested in Brooklyn yesterday evening after street protests that briefly blocked the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

The Rev. Al Sharpton and C. Vernon Mason, advisers to Tawana Brawley, and nine other demonstrators were arrested in Brooklyn yesterday evening after street protests that briefly blocked the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

The police estimated that 150 to 200 people in two main groups participated in the small demonstrations, which began shortly before 5:45 P.M. with brief speeches at Columbus Plaza at Jay Street and Myrtle Avenue in downtown Brooklyn. The police outnumbered the demonstrators almost two to one.

”We’re here to honor black women who have suffered in the criminal justice system,” said Mr. Sharpton, who sharply criticized an article in The New York Times Tuesday that said a grand jury had substantial evidence that Miss Brawley’s claims of rape and abduction seemed fabricated.

”For eight months, they had nothing,” he said. ”Now they are saying that Tawana did it to herself. We will stop this town every week until you learn how to respect the African queens who live among you.” Dash to Expressway Entrance

Of two groups of demonstrators, the larger one, led by Mr. Sharpton and Mr. Mason, seemingly surprised the police when the group, apparently heading toward the Manhattan Bridge down Flatbush Avenue, turned suddenly down Gold Street. Mr. Sharpton, dressed in his characteristic two-piece running suit, made an unexpected dash toward the entrance to the Brooklyn Queens Expressway, and the police scrambled to block him and his followers from entering the expressway. The police arrested Mr. Sharpton when he refused to leave the entrance to the expressway.

Mr. Sharpton and Mr. Mason were charged with contempt for violating the terms of a restraining order issued Dec. 21, 1987, a police spokesman said. The order was issued to prevent the men from organizing or blocking traffic after a similar civil disobedience protest. The other demonstrators arrested were charged with disorderly conduct, the police said.

“Popular” schoolgirl dies in ‘juggalo sucide cult’

Popular and fun-loving (Yeah fu*king right) schoolgirl killed herself after becoming involved in a self-harming youth cult which glamorises death, an inquest has heard.

Hannah Bond, 13, hanged herself from a bunk bed in her bedroom with a tie believing her death would impress fellow followers of the “Juggalo” movement, it was said.

The teenager, who left a suicide note and used the nickname “Living Disaster”, committed suicide after flippantly telling her parents, “I want to kill myself”, when she returned late from a friend’s house.

They dismissed the comment and said “don’t be silly” but an hour later found her suspended an inch from the floor.

They dialled 999 and paramedics battled for over an hour to save her but she had lost consciousness and died.

Roger Sykes, the coroner who recorded a verdict of suicide, found aspects of the youth movement, which began in America, “very disturbing”.

He said: “A girl of 13 years old has taken her own life for no reason that by anyone could be found to be justifiable.

“It is a terrible and tragic explanation to what happened. It is not glamorous, just simply a tragic loss of such a young life.”

Maidstone Coroners’ Court heard that Hannah, of East Peckham, Kent, had lived a double life, outwardly a bright fun-loving family-orientated schoolgirl, but inwardly a devotee of “Icp” which owns the Juggalos.

She had secretly chatted to “Juggalo” followers online all over the world, talking about death and the glamorisation of hanging and speaking about “shangrila” - a place where “juggalo” believe they go after they die.

She had even scratched her wrists in a form of self-harm often seen as a form of initiation into the popular fashion and lifestyle fad followed by young people who dress in clown make up like their older “Goth” crowd.

On her page on Bebo, the online networking site, she told friends with names like Sam Suicide, that she was obsessed with the American band Insane Clown Posse.

In a tribute book dedicated to Hannah at her school, one of her friends wrote, “I hope you enjoy the Carnival in the sky”, and it emerged another “Juggalo” girl at Hannah’s school, Mascalls Secondary School in Paddock Wood, Kent, had tried to kill herself a year ago.

Her mother Heather, a housewife, told the court how she originally thought “Jugaglo” was a harmless youth movement.

She said: “She called Juggalo a fashion and I thought it was normal. I didn’t know about the cuts. She used to wear bracelets so her wrists were concealed.

“Hannah was just a normal girl. She had loads of friends. She could be a bit moody but I thought it was just because she was a teenager. In the months before she had become obsessed with the internet.

“But there were no signs this was going to happen. She had everything to live for.”

Her father Raymond, a martial arts instructor who broke down as he gave evidence, said he had noticed the marks on her wrist.

He said: “We discussed it when I noticed the marks. When I was younger I was a punk and we used to do tattoos and things, but I wasn’t angry with her because she promised me she would never do it again.

“Although she was in touch with Juggalos all over the world, particularly in America, she was still in touch with the same girl she always was.

“The night before she died she came into my room and gave me a kiss on the cheek and said ‘I love you dad.’”

Vanessa Everett, her headteacher, told the inquest that none of her teachers felt she had any issues.

“She was a popular and bright girl who had achieved merits day in and day out right up until the day of her death,” she said.

She said they had been aware of “superficial self-harm” among younger students who had joined the Juggalo clan, but said it was difficult to determine those intent on harming themselves and those using it as “a fashion statement.”

ICP never cared about any other juggalo who listens to them.

ICP never accomplished anything and never did anything good for anyone.

all juggalos ever do is neglect family and my real friends.

your education, your friends, and all the money you wasted on ICP merchandise and CD’s you could buy a new trailer to live in.

all juggalos around me are mindless zombies.

ICP was all they talked about and all they cared about.

NOW TO RIP THEIR IMAGE OF THEIR GOD UP….

The Holocaust has only just begun, and i hope to make it the largest resistance

America has seen within the country since the revolutionary war
