SURPRISE! the Baltimore police chief hates The Wire
During a public engagement last week, Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld described David Simon's show The Wire as "a smear on this city that will take decades to overcome." He went on to cite the tenacious and glamorous cop shows that other cities like New York, Las Vegas, and Miami are blessed with. Why doesn't Baltimore merit such pretty and hardworking cops? Hmmm.Simon responded : "Others might reasonably argue, however that it is not sixty hours of The Wire that will require decades for our city to overcome, as the commissioner claims. A more lingering problem might be two decades of bad performance by a police agency more obsessed with statistics than substance, with appeasing political leadership rather than seriously addressing the roots of city violence, with shifting blame rather than taking responsibility."
Aaaaa-BURN.
La Maison Mantin
imagine this eccentric lifelong bachelor with an inherited fortune living in central france obsessed with his own mortality. no im not talking about thomas wilhelm, good guess though. Louis Mantin died in 1905, and as stipulated by his will, 100 years later his home is going to be reopened in the exact condition in which it was left. field trip time! via.
frayser girls are stoopid
"It's a shame that all these girls at Frayser are pregnant, but it ain't nothing new," said Sutton. "Some girls just try to do it because they think it's cute. For some, it's an accident."Sutton said she believes some girls are making agreements with each other to get pregnant.
"They probably plan it," she said. "Plan what they're going to do to get pregnant. No telling."
Sutton said educators need to do more to try to help prevent teen pregnancies.
"They need a class where they can teach the girls before they get pregnant to use protection and stuff," said Sutton. "And don't try to get pregnant."
no big deal. just one out of five girls in school pregnant or with babies. what?
rafael nadal :: underwear model
lady gaga :: thierry mugler :: nicola formichetti
"For the sexy and moody fashion film, which was directed by fashion photographer Mariano Vivanco, [Mugler creative director Nicola] Formichetti tracked down an unlikely muse in Canadian model Rick Genest. After seeing the skeleton-tattooed 'Zombie Boy' on Facebook, Formichetti flew to Montreal to shoot the video above. It is interspersed with clips from yesterday's runway presentation. It features Genest, aka Rico, peeling off slick black paint to reveal his impressive body art and also dancing in a strands of pearls to Gaga's infectious house music. Gaga remixed the song specifically for the occasion. It is a track from her new album, 'Born This Way,' which is set to be released in May."

swiperboy article
Like many basketball players before him, including Shaquille O'Neal, Ron Artest and Allen Iverson, Woolridge not only excels on the court, but also in the studio. In fact, it could be argued that Woolridge is known almost more for his rap persona of "Swiperboy" than he is for anything else.
Swiperboy burst onto the scene last year with his song "Eric Berry," a tribute and Heisman campaign for then-UT football star Eric Berry. Following that song's success, Woolridge has gone on to produce his own music, and he even created his own label, Swiperboy Entertainment. Despite all of his successes in the music world, Woolridge remains adamantly focused on basketball.
"I had a record label offer that I turned down to come back to school," Woolridge said.
And in a hypothetical choice of either another season of UT basketball or a chance to work with Dr. Dre, Woolridge said simply, "I'm going with basketball." (via)there are no typos at all. enjoy!
