Comment: An assistant to the Little Village dentist whose 5-year-old patient died after a routine procedure testified Monday that the dentist gave the child a third dose of Valium because she would not calm down.
It was that third dose that put Diamond Brownridge in deep sedation and caused her to stop breathing on Sept. 23, prosecutors said.
"She was telling her mom not to leave. I remember her mom petting her," said Maribel Robles, who was assisting the dentist during the six-tooth operation to fill cavities and place caps. "She was still crying--moving around and kicking. I remember Dr. (Hicham) Riba said he'd have to give her more if she didn't stop."
The Southwest Side kindergartner slipped into a coma and died four days later. The Cook County medical examiner's office ruled she died of a lack of oxygen caused by anesthesia.
Robles testified at a state-licensing hearing where an administrative judge for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation will determine whether Riba can return to his practice.
More details have emerged about what occurred at Little Angel Dental through testimony from Riba, two dental assistants present during the operation, an anesthesia expert and the state investigator.
Defense lawyers have said that Diamond could have had a medical condition that contributed to her death, and that Riba may have made a mathematical error when he administered the sedatives.
Dr. William Flick, an anesthesia specialist, testified Monday that the amount of Valium the girl received was too much for someone weighing 35 pounds and that her vital signs were not properly monitored.
Riba recorded in an anesthesia report that he gave Diamond 17 milligrams of diazepam or Valium, both in pill form and intravenously, between 9 and 10:05 a.m. A patient of Diamond's size should not receive more than 5 milligrams of the drug, Flick said.
The Illinois Dental Practice Act mandates that a patient's blood pressure, pulse, respiration and level of oxygen in the bloodstream be monitored and recorded before, during and after sedation.
Riba and his two dental assistants said the girl's blood pressure was not taken at any point and her pulse and respiration were observed but not recorded on treatment reports. The level of oxygen in her blood was recorded during the procedure, but the machine that displays the reading was removed from Diamond's finger after the operation.

Comment: A first-year science teacher and coach at Cowherd Middle School in Aurora was arrested Friday on charges of sexually abusing a student.
Robert Steck, 37, of the 900 block of Shady Lane in Aurora, was indicted by a Kane County grand jury on 10 counts of criminal sexual abuse, one count of indecent solicitation of a child and four counts of sexual exploitation of a child.
The abuse is alleged to have happened in the school and in Steck's home between Aug. 1, 2005, and July 30, 2006, when the accuser was in the 7th grade, said Assistant State's Atty. Justin Fitzsimmons. The boy is now 14.
In a written statement released Monday, East Aurora School District 131 officials called the allegations "both appalling and disheartening."
District officials said Steck was placed on paid administrative leave in July when the school district learned of the allegations from the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. Officials said Steck has had no contact with pupils since July and has not been allowed on school grounds.
"Mr. Steck will remain on administrative leave until a determination regarding the allegations in the indictment has been made," the statement said.
Kane County State's Atty. John Barsanti said the boy's guardian reported the abuse after hearing troubling stories including an allegation that the boy had spent time in a locked classroom with Steck.
"This seemed odd. Red lights went off for her," Barsanti said.
Steck had taught at Cowherd just one year, said district spokesman Clayton Muhammad. Before joining the district, Steck worked in a non-teaching position at Mooseheart, a residential facility and school for children in need in Batavia, Muhammad said.
At Cowherd, Steck taught 8th-grade science, coached 8th-grade basketball and was an assistant coach with the football and wrestling teams. The boy was a member of one of the teams Steck coached, authorities said.
Steck posted 10 percent of his $75,000 bail Saturday and has been released on the condition that he have no contact with the accuser or any child younger than 18. He's also forbidden from going to the school or any place where minors live or are present.
Steck's next appearance in court will be Friday.
If convicted, he faces up to 35 years in prison.

Some Chicago parking scofflaws would be able to pay their outstanding bills by phone and liberate their cars themselves-- removing the disabling Denver boot-- under an experimental program planned for next year, the city's revenue director said today.
"It saves us crews but, more importantly, imagine the convenience of that," said revenue chief Bea Reyna-Hickey.
After providing credit card information to pay overdue tickets, the scofflaw would be given a numerical code which, punched into a keypad on the boot, would release the device. The motorist then would be required to deliver the boot to a drop-off point.
The pilot program is expected to begin in next year's second quarter.
Parking ticket revenue this year is expected to climb to $165 million even though the number of tickets issued will decline by about 300,000, to 2.9 million, Reyna-Hickey told aldermen at a Budget Committee hearing.
Police officers, diverted to crime-fighting assignments, are writing fewer citations, she told reporters later. But such things as special installment ticket payment programs and a 13 percent increase in booting activity is producing higher revenues, she said.
Booting program staffers now have global positioning satellite equipment that allows bosses to ensure they are where they are supposed to be, Reyna-Hickey said.
"It flags alerts when people leave their (assigned) zones," she said. "It has been very effective."
In all of 2005, 48,365 vehicles were booted. Through August of 2006, crews had booted 38,000. Meanwhile, ex-offenders will be hired to replace contractors to help collect on unpaid parking tickets. They would make phone calls to people with past-due citations, asking them to pay. But the workers would not have access to credit card numbers or other sensitive personal information, Reyna-Hickey said.
On a related front, Ald. Thomas Allen (38th) grilled Budget Director Paul Volpe about the absence in Mayor Richard Daley's proposed 2006 budget of funding for additional officers to enforce traffic laws in city neighborhoods.
"It is not the mayor's recommendation," Volpe told Allen.
But the Northwest Side alderman told reporters later that he will continue an effort he began earlier this year to seek more police to crack down on violators who speed and run stop signs on residential streets.
"When we had this issue four or five months ago, the '06 budget had already left the station," he said. But with a new spending plan in the works, "Now is the time for discussion," Allen %*$erted.
Allen had called for 100 new traffic officers, two for every ward, their salaries covered by fine revenue generated by camera systems that nab motorists who run red lights.
He hinted Monday that he would settle for fewer, at least for now.

Comment: MIAMI (AP) -- Comments made by TV analyst and former Miami player Lamar Thomas during a sideline-clearing brawl involving the Hurricanes and Florida International will be edited out before the game is replayed later this week.
Thomas may also lose his job with Comcast Sports SouthEast, a regional cable network available in 5.5 million homes.
"We will take appropriate disciplinary action," CSS general manager Mark Fuhrman said Monday. The network will replay the game Wednesday.
Thomas made his comments as dozens of Miami and FIU players stormed the Orange Bowl field and fought during the third quarter of their teams' game Saturday night, an incident that led to the suspension of at least 31 players and forced officials from both schools to publicly apologize for the melee.
"Now, that's what I'm talking about," Thomas said as the brawl raged out of control. "You come into our house, you should get your behind kicked. You don't come into the OB playing that stuff. You're across the ocean over there. You're across the city. You can't come over to our place talking noise like that. You'll get your butt beat. I was about to go down the elevator to get in that thing."
Miami and Florida International have campuses 9 miles apart in Miami-Dade County. It was the first meeting between the two programs, and the Hurricanes went on to win 35-0.
As the fight slowed, Thomas' comments continued.
"I say, why don't they just meet outside in the tunnel after the ball game and get it on some more? You don't come into the OB, baby," Thomas said. "We've had a down couple years but you don't come in here talking smack. Not in our house."
A tape of the fight, including Thomas' comments, was available on the Internet on Sunday and Monday. The game was available for viewing Saturday night on a pay-per-view basis.
"We do not support or condone any of the comments that were made by Lamar," Fuhrman said.

Comment: BY JIM RITTER Health Reporter
African-American women in Chicago are much more likely than white women to die of breast cancer, and the racial gap is widening, according to a new study that calls the disparity "morally wrong, medically unacceptable and reversible."
Just 10 years ago, black and white women in Chicago died at the same rate from breast cancer. But the most recent figures available, for 2003, show the mortality rate among black women was 73 percent higher, researchers at Mount Sinai Hospital's Urban Health Institute report in a study being released today. Nationwide, the gap was about half that -- 37 percent.
The disparity in death rates appears to be the result of racism, "and it appears to be institutionalized," said Alan Channing, chief executive of Sinai Health System.
In Chicago, white women are diagnosed with breast cancer at a rate 15 percent higher than the rate in black women.
So why are more blacks dying from the disease?
One site spotted few cancers
One explanation that's been offered is that African-American women might be genetically predisposed to getting more aggressive forms of breast cancer. The Mount Sinai researchers -- who examined data from the state's cancer registry, public health department and Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System -- reject that notion. They offer three possible alternative explanations:
• Mammograms done on African Americans "might be of less than optimal quality," according to the researchers, who hope to publish their findings in a medical journal. Their study notes that mammogram centers typically spot five to seven cancers for every 1,000 mammograms. But they found that, at one Chicago center serving low-income women, only 2.4 cancers were spotted for every 1,000 mammograms. The researchers did not identify the center.
Lillie Bell, who is African American and lives in Chicago, says she underwent mammograms every year, and every year was told she was "completely OK." Then, in 1999, Bell was diagnosed with relatively advanced, Stage 3 breast cancer. Now in remission after surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, "I'm doing fine," Bell said. But she thinks her cancer "should have been detected earlier."

Comment: BY BILL ZWECKER Sun-Times Columnist
While most foreigners seeking to adopt children in Malawi must remain in that African country for as long as a year while waiting for approval, Madonna only had to wait a few days. Two days after departing the impoverished, AIDS-racked nation for England, Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie were followed by a plane bearing David Banda, the year-old Malawian boy she is in the process of adopting.
According to the superstar's spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg, Madonna and Ritchie will have temporary custody of the boy for 18 months -- before a Malawian court evaluation can approve a permanent adoption.
'It is not uncommon for a wealthy person or couple to speed up that [adoption] process -- often cutting the waiting time down to a matter of weeks -- by knowing which palms to cross with serious cash,' said AIDS health care administrator David Goldberg Monday. Having just returned from a yearlong stint in Malawi, Goldberg told this column he was not surprised by the news of Madonna's speedy escalation of the process.
'Obviously, I don't know the details of this case, but based on what I've seen the past year, I'm sure a number of people were paid special 'handling fees' to help expedite things.'
According to press reports, the child, accompanied by two British subjects and two Americans (one identified as a nanny), left Malawi Monday on a chartered plane headed to Britain. Despite that initial destination, a Malawian immigration official told the Associated Press he did see a U.S. visa in the child's passport.
The speed of Madonna's adoption process has outraged numerous human rights and child protection organizations -- all claiming this makes a mockery of the established process of adopting children. It is unknown what effect, if any, the legal petition filed by Boniface Mandere on behalf of the Eye of the Child protection socty would have on this case. The society questioned the speed of the adoption on Saturday.
'The court seems to have made a decision based on Madonna's wealth. But being a good parent is not about money. It is about caring, having heart. It's about love," said Mandere on Monday.

Comment: October 17, 2006
CONYERS, Ga. -- A woman and her two young children will get a special Christmas dinner at one of Atlanta's most expensive restaurants this year -- courtesy of a judge.
Chief Superior Court Judge Sidney Nation ordered Wendell Jerome Herman Rogers II to open his wallet and treat his family to a posh meal after he was charged with family violence on Christmas Day.
'Basically you were hung over and didn't want to be involved in some activities your wife planned,' Nation told Rogers. 'You acted up and ruined Christmas, so this year you're going to make it up to them.'
Authorities say Rogers, 33, came home from a party on Christmas Eve and got into a confrontation with his wife in front of their two young children the next morning.
He was charged with family violence battery and obstructing and hindering a person making an emergency call.
In addition to the dinner, Nation also sentenced Rogers to serve 12 months, although the time is suspended while Rogers continues an anger management course. Rogers also has to pay a $1,000 fine.
Rogers' attorney, Maurice Bennett, said his client agreed he had misbehaved and readily accepted the dinner sentence, which attorneys said would set him back more than $300. AP

Comment: I would highly recommend watching "Eyes On The Prize" for those who have not seen it before. Very powerful documentary and it is so real and up close. What is scary that after watching it, you know that most of the people are still living today and have that same hatred. Unfortunately for blacks, we have done much damage to ourselves. But it is educational and helps to understand why blacks and whites are still apart.

Comment: STRONGSVILLE, Ohio -- Mike Tyson said fans should not expect much of a fight when he steps back into the ring.
But the 40-year-old former heavyweight champ promised an entertaining show Friday night when he launches the "Mike Tyson's World Tour" in Youngstown.
At a news conference at an Italian restaurant, Tyson said he would likely go just four rounds and that future stops on the tour might include bouts with women, possibly professional boxer Ann Wolfe.
Wolfe, from Waco, Texas, is 21-1 with 15 knockouts.
"She's such a prominent, dominant woman in the boxing field," Tyson said.
When asked if he was joking about fighting women, Tyson said, "I'm very serious."
Russ Young, a promoter for Wolfe, said such a bout will never happen.
"That's the first we've heard of it," Young said. "No state would sanction that. She would be outweighed by 60 to 70 pounds. Ann would never entertain the idea."
Tyson said the tour was meant to be fun and raise money for charity.
"It's all fun. I'm not Mike Tyson," he said, referring to the fierce boxer whose career was upended by a prison term. "I'm not 20 years old. I'm not going to smash anybody. I'm not going to talk about smashing anybody's brains. You're not going to see that guy no more."
At the press conference, Tyson posed for photos with fans, signed autographs and campaigned for Maryland U.S. Senate candidate Michael Steele.
Tyson, wearing a white and blue Steele for U.S. Senate T-shirt, said he used to believe black Republicans were "sellouts." But Tyson said he changed his mind after researching the Maryland lieutenant governor.
"We have to open our eyes more," Tyson said, as he pointed to his T-shirt.
His recent years have been marked by embarrassing fights -- inside and out of the ring -- and staggering debt. Tyson last fought in June 2005, losing to the unheralded Kevin McBride.
He will return to the ring Friday at the 6,000-seat Chevrolet Centre in Youngstown for a pay-per-view event against former sparring partner Corey "T-Rex" Sanders.
Tyson had said he was finished with boxing after his bout with McBride, which he quit after six rounds.
The man who vowed to eat Lennox Lewis' children and bit off a piece of Evander Holyfield's ear has said he's in no mood for a comeback.
He recently trained in a makeshift ring at a Las Vegas hotel.
Tyson shot to fame by knocking out Trevor Berbick in 1986 to become the youngest heavyweight champion in history at age 20. He was knocked out by James "Buster" Douglas in 1990 and lost his world heavyweight title. He later served prison time for rape, returned to fighting and infamously bit Holyfield's ear in a 1997 fight.

Comment: Fabolous stable after Manhattan shooting
Rapper Fabolous was shot early Tuesday as he stood at a Manhattan parking garage, spurring a sequence of events that left him both hospitalized in stable condition and under arrest, police said.
The rapper, whose legal name is John Jackson, was shot once in the thigh when a male with a gun approached him and three others and opened fire, police spokesman Sgt. Mike Wysokowski said.
The four jumped into a vehicle and fled, attracting the attention of police when they ran a red light. Officers stopped them and discovered two loaded guns in the vehicle, both of which were apparently unlicensed, Wysokowski said. All four men were arrested, and charges were pending.
The rapper was taken to a hospital. Police were searching for the shooter.
The Brooklyn native's hits have included, "Breathe" and "Can't Deny It," and his songs cover topics ranging from romance to street life and violence. He recently took part in the taping of the VH1 Hip Hop Honors, which were to air Tuesday evening.
An e-mail seeking comment from a representative at Def Jam Recordings was not immediately returned early Tuesday. The label is producing the rapper's upcoming solo album, due out in December, according to Fabolous' Web page on MySpace.com.

This morning I find out they have signed Troy Vincent who has been in the league a long time but this man can make a huge impact when coached properly. He also tried to teach me an important lesson when I was in college, he told me that sometimes in the beginning of a relationship you put up with a lot of sh!t from a man but in the end it may be worth it. I'm still not sure if I like that lesson but he is one of the nicest people I know. Osun< is Harold Ford Jr. married? What's the story on him and his family in Tenn? I have had the biggest crush on him since 2000. If he wins his race there will be two hotties in the senate, both black.

Comment: OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian troops fighting Taliban militants in Afghanistan have stumbled across an unexpected and potent enemy -- almost impenetrable forests of 10-feet-high marijuana plants.
General Rick Hillier, chief of the Canadian defense staff, said on Thursday that Taliban fighters were using the forests as cover. In response, the crew of at least one armored car had camouflaged their vehicle with marijuana.
"The challenge is that marijuana plants absorb energy, heat very readily. It's very difficult to penetrate with thermal devices ... and as a result you really have to be careful that the Taliban don't dodge in and out of those marijuana forests," he said in a speech in Ottawa.
"We tried burning them with white phosphorous -- it didn't work. We tried burning them with diesel -- it didn't work. The plants are so full of water right now ... that we simply couldn't burn them," he said.
Even successful incineration had its drawbacks.
"A couple of brown plants on the edges of some of those (forests) did catch on fire. But a section of soldiers that was downwind from that had some ill effects and decided that was probably not the right course of action," Hillier said dryly.
One soldier told him later: "Sir, three years ago before I joined the army, I never thought I'd say 'That damn marijuana'."

Comment: Dog saves owner, dies trying to save cat Mon Oct 16, 8:10 PM ET
After a disabled woman's cat started a house fire, her specially trained dog came to the rescue, then died trying to help the cat still in the house. Jamie Hanson said the 13-year-old dog named Jesse brought the phone so she could call 911 and also brought her artificial leg.
"She got me outside and then she heard the cat upstairs and she went up there to get the cat and she wouldn't come back to me," Hanson, 49, said at a news conference Monday at Aurora Sheboygan Memorial Medical Center where she was being treated for her injuries.
She received third-degree burns to an arm in the fire Sunday night at her home in the town of Rhine south of Elkhart Lake, the Sheboygan County Sheriff's Department said, adding that both pets died in the fire.
Hanson, who lost a leg in a car accident three years ago, said she was on the couch watching television when the cat ran over the back of the couch.
"And he jumped onto a table that had a candle on it and tipped it over and lighted the artificial plants on fire," she said.
Hanson said she fell off the couch and was unable to get her artificial leg from the table, "so my dog got my leg for me and went and got the phone and brought the phone to me so I could call 911."
She said she tried to put the prosthetic leg on, but it was too hot, and the dog, a golden retriever-German shepherd mix, came to her aid again before going back inside for the cat.
When rescuers arrived, the house was fully engulfed in flames, the sheriff's department said. Hanson was in the doorway and was assisted by a deputy.
She was no longer being treated at the hospital when The Associated Press called Monday evening for further comment.

MOUNT PLEASANT, PA—Anthony Pennline, 28, decided Tuesday, following a random encounter at a coffee shop with 26-year old acquaintance April Geyer, that their cordial, 45-minute conversation along with his offer to walk her home basically constituted a date. "I mean, it wasn't official or anything, but if I had asked her to have coffee with me, and she were to have said yes, the result would have been exactly the same," said Pennline, adding that the encounter was even more of a date when he offered to buy her another cup of coffee. "It's pretty clear she's probably really into me." According to Pennline, he has dated two other girls this month, the first of which occurred spontaneously during the happy-hour reception of his high-school reunion, and the second at the movies when he briefly spoke to a woman before the theater went dark.

Comment: Wal-Mart is reported to have agreed to buy a Chinese retail chain for about $1 billion in a move that would give the world's largest retailer the biggest food and department store network in China.
If approved by Chinese regulators, the deal to buy Trust-Mart, a closely held Taiwan company with 100 supercentres in China, would push Wal-Mart past Carrefour for the most supercentres in China. A Wal-Mart spokeswoman declined to comment.
Supercentres, also known as hypermarkets, are giant stores that sell a wide range of general food and merchandise. Wal-Mart beat Carrefour out in bidding for the Trust-Mart stores, the Wall Street Journal reported today.
Established in 1997, Trust-Mart employs more than 30,000 people at its hypermarkets in over 20 provinces across China.
Wal-Mart has made no secret of its ambitions in China. The retailer has said that its operations there could be as big as its US business in 20 years. Wal-Mart currently has more than 3,700 US stores, but only about 60 in China.

Comment: Rayne< I been trying to give The Game a chance but I have several problems with that show. 1. Too many white people 2. Too much interracialness, I don't tune into black comedies to see white women with foine black men, sorry, I just don't and 3. the boyfriend is like an extra corny azz Ginuwine. He looks like him and he's a bad actor just like Ginuwine. Also, the quarterback is NOT believable as a football player. The only thing good about the show is the penny pinching wide receiver and regina from Steve Harvey show. Next week I will not be watching.

Comment: Madonna is doing this for the spotlight. She's even going against the wishes of her husband Guy whos is adamantly against this adoption. Money talks all over the world. She doesn't want BRAD&ANGELINA outdoing her. At least they're sincere with their children. They way in which she went about selecting the child was disgraceful and humiliating to the father as well as the people of the nation. Their poverty withstanding, what would she expect. It's a game. It's not a happy household.

Comment: honeymack< it truly is. On the other hand everybody hates chris is getting better and better. I tivo'd it last night so I could watch the whole hour of Wife Swap. Dovelyone< hmm on Girlfriends, Joan was upset that everybody convenes at Maya's house - which is 60 miles away- instead of at her house. She found out that Maya's weekly fish fryes were giving her high cholesterol so she decided to hire a celebrity trainer to come and give fitness classes at her house. The trainer is prolly the latina woman that is joining the case - she is very wack. William is seeing a therapist, he wants to leave Monica, she finally gave him an out but he begged her not to go and he doesn't know why. So far, I'm fed up with Girlfriends as well, and ain't nobody gonna be going to drive 60 miles to someone's house 1-2 times per week. To me, that messes with the mood of the show. Also, Monica is entertaining is small doses but after 2 scenes I wish should would die.

Last year we had a good relationship, but this year I hope we have a great relationship. I am glad we're back together because without you in my life I would be nothing. We have a lot in common. I am thinking of taking you to the movies to see whatever you want. Whatever you want in this relationship, I will do for you. I hope we are together 4 ever. I hope we have fun on the rips this year.

Comment: >ija, rayne & dovelyone, Girlfriends SUCKS! I've been watching it for the past few weeks 'waiting' to laugh and I've been disappointed everytime. The storylines are WACK! And I think they may as well hang it up cuz this is the last year. As for The Game, I don't even waste my time watching it anymore. It's just pointless. I'd rather wash dishes rather than watch The Game. This season of all of our shows is wack to me. I don't too much care for ANTM either. I remember I wouldn't miss a show for the world! Now, I find other stuff to do cuz the show bores me and Tyra irritates the hell outta me. TV has fallen off this season, fa sho.

Comment: The Associated Press
October 17, 2006, 10:02 AM CDT
U.S. Senator Barack Obama's new book hits stores today, and fans are turning out in droves to see the Illinois Democrat.
A line snaked around the block outside 57th Street Books in Chicago's Hyde Park neighborhood where crowds waited in the rain meet Obama and buy "The Audacity of Hope."
Store manager Scott McWilliams says the title of the book explains the senator's appeal. McWilliams says Obama gives people a sense of hope and that's something the country needs right now.
"The Audacity of Hope" offers Obama's views on the Iraq war and national security policy five years after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
His first book, the autobiographical "Dreams From My Father," was a best seller.

Comment: blackdiamond's story just reminded me of one time, I asked my mom could I go out with this guy and she said no which was fine. She then proceeded to get on the phone and tell her friends that this guy had asked me out and how his father (who was abusive toward him and had given him away to be raised by his aunt) was no good and all this stuff. So, of course it got back to someone in his family. Well, when I saw him the next time, of course he was angry esp. since he was sensitive about the situation with his father - as any young person would be. He threatned me, cursed me out, and HUMILIATED me IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. For years I didn't tell my mother ANYTHING at all that was going on with me b/c I felt she couldn't be trusted. I still am mad at her for that b/c your children's business should stay private.

WASHINGTON -- Actor Wesley Snipes was indicted Tuesday on eight counts of tax fraud for failing to pay nearly $12 million in taxes and failing to file tax returns for six years.
Federal prosecutors in Tampa, Fla., said Snipes fraudulently claimed refunds in 1996 and 1997 on taxes already paid, and then failed to file returns between 1999 and 2004.
Snipes, whose saw his mansion foreclosed, has appeared in such films as "The Blade:Trinity," "Passenger 57" and "Jungle Fever."
In 2004 he said the foreclosure was a "sham legal process to steal the property" that was caused by someone else forging a mortgage on the $1.7 million mansion. At the time, he was appealing the foreclosure to the Florida Supreme Court.
Snipes was born in Orlando, but moved with to New York when he was about 2 years old. They returned in 1977 and attended Jones High School, where he appeared in plays.

Black artist can't seen to get a break there and he came to the US and did well. I can listen to the whole cd without skipping a track plus he had remixes for all the songs on the CD. He's not doing well now because he's seems as a pop artist in the US and the UK has turned their back on him. You can tell I love this boy. I posted on his message board for 5 years now. Not so much lately but I still read it everyday. I'm now on to Lemar. He has a great voice and has not crossed over the pond yet.

Comment: With Diddy's Taste, Who Needs Talent?
By Dan Charnas
Special to The Washington Post
Tuesday, October 17, 2006; C01
Running through a series of sobriquets from Puffy to Diddy, the superstar producer-clothier Sean John Combs has recorded four albums of his own, including the new "Press Play," perhaps his best since his 1997 debut, "No Way Out." It's time to give Diddy his due. At the very least, he is the most talented no-talent ever.
He may be, as he says on his new album, "hard to love," yet Diddy has a certain genius -- and it's clearly on display in "Press Play." He knows what rocks the dance floor.
Everything on this album is big. Big fanfares, big drums, big sounds. And there are big names, too -- Kanye West, Nas and Jamie Foxx among them. But for once, the ideas are bigger. This is the kind of album that Diddy would have never let his minions make back in the day. For Diddy, it's almost experimental.
Musically, "Press Play" is a virtual tour of electropop history. Early '80s drums are everywhere. Echoes of Mantronix abound in the first single, "Come to Me." Producer Danja channels Bambaataa on "Diddy Rock" and Larry Smith on "Wanna Move." Will.I.Am grabs Prince's sounds on "Special Feeling." And Mario Winans finishes with a production tour de force: old-fashioned new wave on "Last Night," a little Arthur Baker on "Through the Pain" and a lethal dose of drum 'n' b%*$ on "Thought You Said."
Sure, Diddy paid for these beats. But Diddy has taste that money can't buy. His acute ear and rich sonic vocabulary serve him well throughout "Press Play." It's Diddy's lyrical lexicon that scores considerably lower. What can you say about a guy whose flow on "Thought You Said" can't even match guest star Brandy's?
Diddy hired indie rapper Pharoahe Monch to ghostwrite a few gourmet verses for him, but he never achieves the autobiographical eloquence he seeks. Diddy's better in his original recipe: arrogance. "She diggin' my style, my swag, my sway, my swerve," he rhymes on "Come to Me," tossing words like playing cards.
When you tire of his first single, note that Diddy has at least two more monsters coming. "Making It Hard" has Mary J. Blige doing Amerie doing Mary J. Blige over an Ameriesque track by producer Rich Harrison. The album's hardest track, "Tell Me," features Diddy's most unlikely collaborator, Christina Aguilera, making mincemeat of an insane Just Blaze beat. With these songs waiting in the wings, "Press Play" should easily take us through Christmas 2007.
Of course, when these hits fade, you'll forget this album. Diddy is temporal, not timeless.

His entourage tried to get him to the hospital and was stopped. They (3) had weapons. Police took him on to the hospital while the others were taken in.

Comment: {IJA}The question came from a DJ on a radio station. He was talking about the power of music and how it feeds the soul. People sing about life experiences and how it effects change. BB King once said that if it hadn't been for music, the Civil Rights Movement would have come much later. If you watch "Eyes On The Prize" documentary, there is a lot of music playing during the documentary. That's why there is a certain classification of music called, "Soul Music".

Willis Gets Hollywood Walk of Fame Star
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Surrounded by family, friends and fellow A-listers, Bruce Willis received a star on the Walk of Fame Monday as scores of fans looked on.
Ex-wife Demi Moore and her new husband Ashton Kutcher were on hand, as were Ben Affleck, Kevin Costner, Sylvester Stallone, Don Johnson and Billy Bob Thornton. The Emmy-winning actor's children also attended the dedication ceremony.
"I used to come down here and look at these stars and I could never quite figure out what you were supposed to do to get one," Willis said. "Time has passed and now here I am doing this, and I'm still excited. I'm still excited to be an actor."

Comment: MORE FROM DIDDYLAND: Sean Combs has been dating Kim Porter — off and on — for close to a decade. Their son, Christian, is 9, and they're expecting twins in December.
So when are they getting married?
"When I'm ready," Diddy told us yesterday. "I have to be ready to get married. If I marry anyone, Kim will be the woman." That may not be exactly what Porter has been waiting to hear. Still, with the release today of "Press Play," Diddy's first CD in five years, the hip-hop mogul has been showing his most durable girlfriend more respect than he has in the past.
Take that time when he ran off with Jennifer Lopez.
"Kim never really sweated Jennifer," Combs tells Vibe magazine, which threw him a party last night at Crobar. "She was, 'Ah, you're playin' yourself. … You're running … around with your little Puerto Rican girlfriend. You'll be back.' … And she was right. "Jennifer and me … were so alike. Kim and I are opposite. [Jennifer was] somebody who got it. … The hype can pull you in. 'Y'all are lookin' good together.' … But I couldn't commit to [Jennifer] the way she wanted me to. Everybody who ever meets the girl winds up marrying or wanting to marry her. I couldn't be like Cris [Judd] and Ben [Affleck] and Marc [Anthony]."
Combs admits that, when it comes to sex, "I'm nasty. [In the mid-'90s] I was buck-[bleepin'] wild. Beyond ménage à trois. Crazy — you're twentysomething and renting the presidential suite at the Hotel Nikko in Beverly Hills. You got the bathtub filled with Champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries. … Then sex became dangerous.
"Then all that energy you were spreading becomes a one-on-one thing. And, yeah, my girl right now is very happy. As meticulous as I am with my work, I'm even more meticulous with my lovemaking. … I like to do it for a long time. Sometimes I'm making love and she's like, 'You gonna save some for the honeymoon?'"
When he's ready, Kim. When he's ready.

Comment: I love watching "Eyes On The Prize" but I was born when all this stuff was going on. I'm only 42 so that means if I was my mother she couldn't drink for the same water fountian or go thought the same door as white folks back then. Even when Black people could do those things they still set in the balcony of the movie theater here. I grew up in Dallas and remember my mother telling me that when black farmers stopped sharecropping the white farmers burned down the shacks that lived in. Most blacks here live in certain parts of the Parrish. They used to be schools where most of the students were white but that changes because white people moved farther out and the city school is mostly black.

Also, think of the many black industry giants who had ideas stolen from them because of their skin color. Another reason why many blacks were "passing" in those days. I have relatives who are now admitting to doing that. There is a uncle from Virginia, in his younger pictures he looks like a YT for real, grey eyes, fair skinned, he said he had to do it to put food on the table. We told him do not be ashamed (this was before he passed on, god bless him) but his family fought so hard over his property most of it got lost in the courts. He married a snowbunnie and they had better lawyers.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK: I been slackin on my weekly questions but here’s one. Is there one thing you cannot stand on a man???? For me, it’s a certain type of beard. This guy asked me out a while back but we never went out, well we made a date for last Saturday but I had to cancel b/c I was sick. We are to reschedule for this Saturday HOWEVER I recently discovered that between the time we met and now, he has grown a beard! Now, I don’t have a problem with the Clinton Portis, Michael Vick, David Banner down south beards where there is hair at the tip of the chin and nowhere else. And I don’t mind goatees like Morris Chestnut. But I cannot stand a beard that travels the entire jawline from ear to ear. I think they are gross and make the man look old and dirty. It also reminds me too much of the men in Philadelphia aka Beard City Proper. Would it be improper for me to tell him that I can’t possibly be seen with him until he shaves?

I told my mother I didn't know they were growing cotton like this way back here. She said this I where all the black people use to live and had to move into town because white farmers wouldn't sell them any land. The cotton is "high" this years which means they are going to make a lot of money. There aren't in black farmers that I know of down there. I know a few that plant sweetpotatos and soybeans but you get a tax break for only growing an acre of land. You also get a 10,000 dollar discount of trucks that are used for the farm. Let's say a lot of people are driving around in big SUV's that are not used on the farm.

Little cute girls with fifthy mouths, boys talking al kinds of trash to them. And they aren't even in their teens yet. My children are well behaved and respectful around us, but who's to say what goes on behind our backs? I can just pray that they carry their upbringing wherever they go. Me, at that age was playing ring-a-leevio, hot peas and butter, riding my bike, skating, flying kites, jumping benches trying to impress the boys, softball, red-light-green-light,all of this I couldn't wait to get home from school to do.

Comment: I THOUGHT THEY MEANT THE ORIGINALS AT FIRST: Menudo To Return With Album, Reality Series
By: Bomani Jones
October 16, 2006
To those that have clamored for the return of the most famous name in Latin pop—the wait is over. Menudo is coming back on the scene, and it’s bringing cameras along for the ride.
On Monday, Menudo Entertainment and Epic Records announced their plans to recreate Menudo, the world famous Latin boy band. Epic will search for new members, sign them to a record deal and, Epic hopes, introduce Menudo to a new generation of fans and restore the group’s past glory.

Comment "Indisputably, the biggest brand in Latin pop music over the last thirty years is Menudo,” says Charlie Walk, Epic’s President. “We will now empower the public to help define the Menudo brand today through various platforms and our partners with one common goal; to entertain audiences around the world with great music."

Comment: Roger Friedman over at Fox News indirectly compared Justin Timberlake to Pat Boone. Those of you who are not familiar with Pat Boone. Let me break it down for you, he made a career out of-ripping off the sound of popular black artists back in the day. He would always do a white version of their hit songs and make more money than them in the process and in some cases, he had the audacity to ask black artists, when are you coming out with your next record? Like Boone, Timberlake has no originality. He is a Michael Jackson impersonator who tries to sound like Prince on his new album. He can't even be original with his album title, he took a page from Outkast and used a two-part album name, "Future Sex/Love Sounds," similar to "Love Below/Speakerboxxx." What I find amazing, mainstream press is not making a big deal out of Timberlake failing to go platinum despite spending four weeks on the charts. Oh, I forgot, they are solely focused on Janet's album sales.

He had a bunion so big it looked like his big toe was at a 90 degree angle to his foot. Oh the horror, and you could even see it through sneakers. He always tried to wear the latest shoes, knowing he should have been wearing some orthopedic shoes with velcro straps, instead of Jordans. So one day I was with Sis in law and we had to go and comfort his wife Keke after he had hit her or cheated on her or something, I don’t recall. But I remember telling her “I don’t know how you can be with him” and she thought it was because whatever ordeal they were going through. NO, it was those crusty azz feet that I was referring to…

Comment: Bigchassie- No not yet, it comes out in Dec. But I know on blockbuster.com, I can add movies that are still in the theater to my list, so you could probably do that with netflix also. That way you can keep track of all the movies that you missed at the theater, once they’re released on dvd.

Her CD will actually have you fall out and sobbing uncontrollably. She has this song Jesus Precious King that blows you away.

I know I need to go to the orthopedic doctor and podiatrist but I'm too scared that they will tell me I can't wear heels anymore. If they told me no more heels, I am positive I would become hysterical and do something crazy. At this point, I am choosing between dealing with this pain or going to the dr. and possibly facing certain death.

Comment: IJA, girl you better go get your feet checked. You only get 2 feet and once you mess them up, you're finished. A girl I went to college with had bad foot problems and she had to stop wearing heels for a while and have foot surgery. I'm guessing if they catch whatever the problem is early enough, it can be treated/corrected and then you should be able to get back to your old life. But definitely don't avoid seeing a doctor just because you don't want to give up heels. Do you want to be 35 wearing orthopedic shoes with the velcro straps??

LOL >ija, my psycho sis messed up one of her feet cuz she broke one of her toes about 4 years ago and never went to the dr. She has a worse shoe fetish than I do *imagine that* and 99.9% of her shoes are 3 in. heels & above. Well, recently, she FINALLY went to the podiatrist and they told her to lay off the heels & to invest in some orthopetic shoes especially since she's a hairstylist and is on her feet all day. I feel sorry for her, but she's one of those folks that hates going to the dr., she'd rather just keel over and die 1st. She was limping at the Autism walk last saturday and I wanted to ask her how her foot was doing, but I didn't.

Now you said 35 wearing orthopedic shoes, if somebody told me I could be guaranteed another 11 years of wearing my stillettos then yes, yes, I'd take the 11 years and just give up on them at 35, but not now!

I have one on my leg but I cover it with makeup for work, I have tatoos on my left should 3 (all small) and again I have the perfect coverup if I want to go sleeveless and don't want anyone to see it. Though it make seem wacky I mark my body when something significant happens in my life since they are under my clothing for the most part I did them for me. It's weird but I liked being tattooed each are symbolic of something and I don't regret getting them. I would never put a tatoo on my breast, or neck.

Them 25/20 don't have a problem taking all that money every 2 wks out of my dayum paycheck so imma start going to the dr even if I think I may have something.

Comment: Be careful with the food in the bedroom... I got whipped cream up my nose when I was in college and it made me so sick, I STILL can't eat whipped cream. And with honey, after the activities are over and you just want to go to sleep, you just feel nasty with half-dry/super-sticky honey stuck in places it shouldn't be.

Comment: Plus, I don't care how much fun you have while you're using the food in the bedroom, cleaning that junk up later is the worst. My man messed up a really expensive set of sheets trying to be romantic with some damn chocolate & strawberries. I was so preoccupied with the mess he was making that I didn't fully enjoy what he was trying to do. (BTW, I'm on the phone with him now and we're cracking up about him messing up my sheets) :-)

Comment: I hate when sick azzed people come to work. If you are feverish than you are contagious. Just stay at home *sniffling* So my boss just called in to confirm that she won’t be in today because her symptoms have taken the best of her. The dr. recommended that she home that whole week, but she’ll be in tomorrow. Oh, well, I already have it. Our file clerk had it, so it’s definitely get around the office. If I would have known she was sick, I would have picked up and delivered all my own documents and pulled the files I needed. Perfect timing though, because I did want to take Thursday off. Hopefully, my sickness won’t bloom, but since it’s going around, my boss won’t question my absence. I know the next time some1 sneezes, I’m bringing in a Sars mask, I don’t care if some1 is holding pepper to their nose.

Comment: POVERTY,HUNGER VS. WAR- For a country as largely populated as BANGLADESH to be helped by helping individuals get out of poverty, WHY is it so hard to be done here? Because that's the way the power struture wants it to be! NOBEL PRIZE WINNER, MUHAMMAD YUNUS from the poverty stricken nation of about 141 million people, started a bank that handed out microcredit, giving loans to the poor who did not qualify for loans from conventional banks. No collateral. 99% repayment rate. 97% women(6.6 million Bangladeshi) received $5.72 billion and provides services in > 70,000 villages. One woman,age 40 five yrs. ago used $90 from the GRAMEEN BANK to buy chickens so she could sell eggs. She's since taken more loans and expanded into selling building materials. Before this, she was out begging for money to feed her family. Now she owns a house and enough money to feed her children and send them to school. MICROCREDIT LENDING IS SPREADING AROUND THE WORLD NOW. The richest country in the world, whats up?!!!!!All any self respecting person wants is equal footing.

Chris Robinson, Oprah's trainer and core coach, couldn't keep her away from Dairy Queen ice cream and malted milkshakes, but he did help her reach her goal weight once the road trip was over!
Fitness guru Bob Greene introduced Oprah to Chris, a Pilates expert who specializes in strengthening the body's core, and the rest is history! Tabloids have reported that Oprah crash dieted over the summer, but she says she got down to 154 pounds the old-fashioned way…exercise!
Strengthen your core with exercise tips from Chris!
Although Gayle hasn't reached her goal weight, she truly enjoyed her training sessions with Chris during the road trip. "I think he's adorable," Gayle said. "He's very sexy. He has a beautiful smile … have you seen him without a shirt?"

Now take you tail to the doctor before you throw a clot and then you won't mind so much having to give up the heels cause you won't feel a thing now make that appointment girl. remember weight x's mass = velocity and up on heels causes pressure. The angle makes one experience their downward weight.

Comment: Ohh Lemme share! I am 5'1 (I am so jealous of you Lovely) shoulder length hair but I still wear weave cause I like for it to look thick. I am a darker brown skin (think Snickers bar). I look really young for my age and being short doesn't help.A little thick right now but not for long thanks to DILIH crew!

Comment: Fried Coke?!...Fried Coke a big hit at US state fairs
CHICAGO (AFP) - Fried Coke has become the latest artery-clogging hit
at US state fairs, local media reports.
The gooey Coke-battered nuggets topped with cola syrup won the "most
creative" title at the Texas state fair in Dallas last month. Since
then, the deep-fried phenomenon has spread to North Carolina and
Arizona.
"We've been getting calls from everywhere since we introduced it,"
Elizabeth Martin, a spokeswoman for the North Carolina fair, told the
Dallas Morning News. "Everyone wants to know where they can get it."
Fried treats are as big of a draw at state fairs as the rides and
prize-winning farm animals. Twinkies, cookies and even pickles are
stuck with a stick, dipped in batter and then seared in the deep
fryer.
Fried Coke's inventor, concessionaire Abel Gonzales Jr., is a
creative fryer whose experiments have proven popular. Last year he
sold 20,000 fried peanut butter, jelly and banana sandwiches, the
Morning News reported. Fried Coke looks to be an even bigger hit: he
sold 16,000 cups of the sticky balls in the first two weeks of the
fair, which runs through Oct. 22.
Gonzales has also had more success with changing his recipe than Coca
Cola did. He reworked the recipe to make the dough less cakey and
more spongy so it would soak up more of the cola syrup.
"They were good before, but they are even better now," Gonzales said.

Comment: Don't be jealous of my height. I feel like I'm the tallest person in church when we all stand up -- I swear I can see over everyone's head and it feels like the Rev is stareing at me all the time (maybe that's my guilty conscious). Plus I think my height intimidates men since I wear heels a lot. Being 5'10" also makes it hard to buy slacks/jeans.

I had to finally send the other woman home last week, but it was too late. I was already sick. Co-sign on horrible potluck dinners. I refuse to eat most of what's brought for potluck. Especially if the other people cooked it. Ugh.

Comment: Chassie, I have to spend a lot of money on clothes and tailoring to get them to fit properly. My legs are super long and I wear really high heels all the time and most of the stores I shop in don't really sell clothes in lengths. I just buy the regular 10's and get them altered. Most of the time there's plenty of material in the hem to let them out a few inches. Both of my parents are freakishly tall and we all have really long legs (and none of us plays basketball even though everyone suggests that we should). I play with my man for recreation but I never played organized basketball.
