Montana Fishburne Playboy Photo Test and Kim Kardashian Influence

Montana Fishburn

According to TMZ.com, Laurence Fishburn's daughter Montana Fishburne is really trying to get out from under the large shadow cast by her father and in a big way. First there was the porn film and then we have the Playboy Photo Test.

The photos, which were reportedly done before anyone knew about the sex tape she made, reportedly feature full frontal nudity. According to The New York Daily News, the photos did not meet Playboys standards for publication. (What were they?)

TMZ.com claims Montana Fishburne is trying to follow Kim Kardashian's path to fame. But doesn't that mean she uses Twitter? If so, it's hard to figure out which Twitter account belongs to Montana Fishburn. It is TheRealChippyD or just plain old Montana Fishburn? If it's the former, her tweets are protected, which is very un-Kim Kardashian-like. If it's the latter, she'd better start tweeting more often than she does.

And on the matter of being Kim Kardashian-like, Montana Fishburne said this:

"I've watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape by Vivid," Fishburne said in a press release." I'm hoping the same magic will work for me. I'm impatient about getting well-known and having more opportunities and this seemed like a great way to get started on it."

No kidding. Still no word from her father Laurence Fishburne.

Stay tuned.

Elin Nordegren clueless Tiger Woods was cheating? by Suzannah B. Troy

Elin Nordegren says she had no idea that Tiger Woods was cheating. This is hard to believe considering rumors that he was a player before he even married her and that was allegedly not a  secret.   If I was interviewing her I would have asked her were than any clues before you married him of this kind of behavior?  Where you aware that he was a womanizer or sexually promiscuous?   I don't believe she was asked these questions.

Tiger Woods with the help of his friends and I use the word "friends" loosely because they all profit big time from his friendship and the kind word is "enablers"...yes, the kind word choice... yet Tiger Woods behavior was so outrageous including all the phone calls and texting it is hard to believe Elin Nordegren had no idea and did not see one red flag.

With an guy in a position of power and with a high sex drive the only way to prevent him from cheating is to be with him all the time and or get a GPS for his well you fill in the words.  If you noticed your husband has a high sex drive and he is not spending time with you but is away a lot  wouldn't you ask him, hey honey what are you doing about your lusty  libidinal impulses even out of curiosity?  I don't believe Elin Nordegren is lying but I do believe she too was in denial not just Tiger Woods.   Tiger Woods was in denial that he would ever get caught.  Woods treated his many mistresses like sub-humans and he still does not get that or take responsibility for his lousy treatment.  But that being said, no one except those involved including Tiger Woods enablers could imagine how crazy out of control Tiger Woods was like a bad cheap XXX porn movie....unreal.

I do believe completely Elin NOrdegren has suffered greatly and the toll it took on her body and health.  I had a very different situation but very disturbing violating experience and I had all the same symptoms including hair loss, weight loss, insomnia and I am sure a lot of women experiencing traumatic events identify no cheating husband required to suffer those symptoms.

I don't think the global audience that consumes People Magazine and celebrity news will share my skepticism.  As I blogged yesterday, I do believe this People Magazine due out this Friday will outsell the Sandra Bullock People.    Most people will be very sympathetic to Elin Nordegren who went from an au pere to a mega-millionaire but I am not sure many women would want to trade places with her.  Elin Nordegren will come out on top and doing this was a smart and shrewd move on her part because people thought she would be silent as part of paid legal agreement like some of Tiger Woods mistresses.   Tiger Woods paid his mistresses for silence but not his wife so very shrewd and powerful.

The children are the victims and just because the parents are divorced doesn't mean this is the end for the kids but in fact this will haunt the kids always unless they are given a lot of therapy and tools to deal with the long term aftermath.

Sweet and touching quotes from Elin and Sam but I can't help feeling this will impact the children in long term ways.    I know one symptom of dealing with my parents crumbling marriage and divorce was serious weight gain.  How about 50 pounds so not a good sign that Sam offers her Mom food to comfort her....I am glad that both Elin Nordegren and Tiger Woods will have to take parenting classes.  I wish they made parents take these classes before they have children.

"I wasn't crying, but I was thinking and was sad. Sam came up to me, put her hand on my cheek and said in Swedish, 'Mommy, where is your boo-boo?' "

"I smiled at her and said, 'Mommy's boo-boo is in her heart right now, but it will be better,' " Elin recalled. "She looked at me and said: 'Can Sam kiss and make it better? Or maybe popcorn will.' "

Ashley Bell Wins Acclaim For The Last Exorcist

Ashley Bell stars in a movie that's getting a surprisingly high level of buzz and all because of her performance. Eli Roth's The Last Exorcist should be expected to do well at scaring people, but not such that it's already showing signs of becoming a cult classic hit.

Roth is known for making low-budget horror movies that gross multiples of their cost, and has done so repeatedly.

But given the buzz for Ashley Bell (her name is the number one most searched Google Trend as of this writing), The Last Exorcist looks to be a blockbuster.

The thing everyone's talking about is that Ashley Bell does her own stunts. Some of her work is evident in this trailer:



The last scene in the trailer is all Asley Bell. Reportedly no special effects were used.

Wild.

Oakland Mayor's Race: Sierra Club Forum Has Excellent Turn Out

Don Perata's first Oakland Mayor's Race Forum

A full turn out for the Sierra Club Forum saw Former Senator Don Perata make his first appearance in an Oakland Mayoral Forum.

Thanks to New Media, this blogger learned that Larry Lionel Young Jr. was surprisingly polished candidate for someone who's campaign started late and is stil not really visible. Perhaps the TV cameras will help.

Marcy Hodge has to ask if she's really taking this who deal of running for Mayor of Oakland seriously beyond filing, because she did not participate in the forum.

One person observed that Don Perata was a "major thud," as was Joe Tuman, which is hard to believe, but apparently my source expected more detailed responses from both of them. Terrance Candell was said to have performed much better than my past criticism would imply for future forums.

Greg Harland was said to have done "OK," and thoughtful on environmental issues, though my source's view of Harland is entirely clouded by his dislike for Harland's position on cutting police salaries. Don Macleay was given higher marks for presentation than in past forums.

Unfortunately, Councilmember Jean Quan, again, attacked Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan. For some reason, Jean has to publicly demonstrate some kind of annoyance with Rebecca that's goes beyond logic in a campaign.

I was also told that Arnie Fields was there "in body only," and that's about it. I'll have to take that up with Arnie directly.

Many of the candidates had their groupies; Kaplan's headed over to her sports policy talk event afterward, or at least many of them did.

In all, it was the first forum of the Oakland Mayor's Race to include Don Perata.  To which we say, "What took you so long."

Developing... Stay tuned.

Kat Stacks will do anything for attention By Nikky Raney

Kat Stacks is famous for exposing all the hip hop and rap artists that she has had sexual relations with. She is known for "putting them on blast" and publicly releasing their phone numbers over the internet asking those who are watching to harass them.

Courtesy of The Insider

Stacks is only 20-years-old, but she is always bragging about how drunk she is. She also has a son, but she doesn't spend much time with him.

She is known for her loud mouthed posts and her constant profanity. She prides herself on how many celebrities she has slept with and makes sure that everyone else is aware.

Earlier this summer she was slapped at a bar by a friend of one of the rappers she had slept with. This was caught on Youtube.

Her most recent action is a video she posted while she was in Soulja Boy's hotel room. While he was in the shower Kat video taped Soulja Boy's stash of cocaine. To prove she was really with him she hides the camera while having a conversation with him in his car, and then again when they are laying on the bed with one another.

She posts the video onto Youtube and exposes Soulja Boy's drug problem. She is two-faced in the way that during all this she convinces Soulja Boy that he should trust her and that she really does care about him.

Soulja Boy tweets:

Kat is very popular on Twitter and once tweeted, "Who do I have to f*** to get verified?"

Some of her most recent tweets include:

IHateKatStacks: "Dear Wives, if Hoes didn't exist your marriage would be over."
IHateKatStacks: "I hate n***** who DM me to retweet them something but they never asked before if i was still alive smh F*** YOU"
IHateKatStacks: "The only man that could ever get to me is my babydaddy SMH & he knows that, that's why I don't open the text messages I just delete them"

Tweets courtesy of The Urban Daily

This girl craves this attention, and she keeps getting it. Even now in this blog post. Eventually these celebrities will learn their lesson and stop sleeping with her, because they should realize that it will most probably lead to their number being leaked and a rant from Kat Stacks.

The most recent video is below of her showing how Soulja Boy is a "druggie." The video is not the official one she posted - it was taken from another source who had re-posted it.

Oakland Mayor's Race: CBS Poll Of Likely Voters Leaves Out Info

Senator Don Perata

Seeking to help define The Oakland Mayor's Race, KPIX Channel Five elected to conduct a poll of 591 "likely voters" in Oakland.

The poll, of which this blogger has not seen the actual questions but may square with anecdotal reports, says that Former Senator Don Perata got 41 percent of 1st choice votes, Oakland City Councilmember Jean Quan got 26 percent of 1st choice votes, and Councilmember Rebecca Kaplan got 14 percent of 1st choice votes.

The other candidates combined earned 12 percent of 1st choice votes.

When asked for a second choice those who picked Kaplan went Perata, and those who went for Quan picked Kaplan. But the CBS report never mentioned the 3rd choice results.

What this means is that CBS has some weird interest in not mentioning the names of the other candidates. In other words, their poll reporting is either sloppy, lazy or fixed.

Why in hell would Channel Five have any interest in the Oakland Mayors race to the degree of conducting a poll? It's not as if they pay property taxes here.

Congrats to Don Perata for being ahead, but the Channel Five poll and its reporting is not to be trusted.

Oakland City Council Race: Pat Kernighan Sends Hot Email About The Race

Councilmemer Pat Kernighan 

Just about an hour ago this blogger posted the news of Oakland City Council District Two  (Glenview, Chinatown) Candidate Jennifer Pae picking up a valuable endorsement in the form of Alameda County Supervisor Keith Carson.

In the blog post, I offered the view that perhaps the backing of Carson "may be the beginning of the end."

May.

Even with that, and with the overall tone of communicating that Pat was in a battle, I got this hot email from Councilmember Kernighan:

Zennie,

Perhaps you are jumping to conclusions about the "beginning of the end" for moi. Would you like to report the facts that I have the endorsements of Attorney General Jerry Brown, Supervisor-elect Wilma Chan, Supervisor Alice Lai-Bitker and Council President Jane Brunner, among others? Do you know that the leader of every NCPC and neighborhood group in my district supports me because I have worked hard every day for the past five years advocating for the needs of their neighborhoods and delivering results? While Ms. Pae was running around hustling endorsements this spring, I was working 60 hours a week doing the job I was elected to do. Why don't we let the voters decide.

Pat

As I wrote back to Councilmember Kernighan, that's a great point, I'll print that. And so I did.

But I remind her and everyone that I'm a blogger; thus I write my view of the World and in a media-and-Internet-friendly way. I'm not, nor do I wish to be, a journalist. However, I do insist on giving everyone running for office in Oakland their platform within this space. 

I have never refused anyone who has asked to be included here.

In closing, Pat's far from dead, but it's worth reminding her that she should not say she's not dead yet, because the last time that was said was by "The Black Knight" in Monty Python and The Holy Grail. And we know what happened there...




As stated, this is going to be interesting. Gotta like that Pat's fiesty.

Marin General Hospital To Sue Sutter Health On Thursday

Marin General Hospital

Breaking news.  

The nasty and long-running feud between The Marin Healthcare District and Sutter Health is allegedly going to spill into the courtroom (court location not known at this time) tomorrow, Thursday, when the attorneys for Marin General Hospital are scheduled to announce they will file a lawsuit against Sutter Health for its management of the hospital since 1995.

According to sources, James J. Brosnahan of the Morrison and Forrester law firm (and who, if I'm not mistaken, was at the same birthday party for U.S. Assistant Attorney General Tony West this blogger attended in 2009) will announce the lawsuit on behalf of the publically elected Marin Healthcare District Board of Directors.

The healthcare district is seeking more than $100 million it says Sutter wrongly took out of the coffers of Marin General. Sutter has said all along that it has followed the agreement between the District and itself which was approved by the court and allowed Sutter to retain the monies during its administration of the hospital.

Nonetheless, some Marin residents have wanted to control the hospital themselves and oust Sutter from management of Marin General. But, many - including Marin's own Grand Jury - have doubted the ability of the publically elected board of the Marin Healthcare District to be able to run the hospital and others have been quietly critical of the leadership of Marin General's new CEO Lee Domanico.

Already, this week, the Marin United Taxpayers Association wrote in a letter to the editor in the Marin Independent Journal that, under Domanico's leadership:

"Here we go again. No kidding, it is business as usual at Marin General Hospital. We now have a similar private board that isn't accountable to the public, like the previous one that allowed $200-plus million to go to Sutter, and big money to exclusive contracts with large doctor groups (oncology, cardiology, hospitalists, radiologists, pathologists, etc.).

"Now we have the same setup that is not transparent to the public, meets in private, and pays its CEO, a public employee until now, $800,000, and the doctors will still get their exclusive contracts because their representatives are on the board. MGH, another Bell, Calif.

"MGH did come back to the public, momentarily.

"On June 30, the transition date, the incumbent directors on the publicly elected board had already arranged to give it away to another private board immediately. That private board can have 49 percent of members with financial conflicts, meaning they can facilitate their own exclusive, expensive deals with the hospital, and the public won't be able to see the sweetheart deals; all paid with revenues from the public hospital.

"Worse yet, they will ask the taxpayers for a $300 million bond and another 30-year contract with this private corporation, to rebuild MGH, with no accountability to the public for what it does, and no lawsuit against the last "community" board members to get back the last, lost $200-plus millions. And just watch these rich contract doctors post office signs touting the incumbents - it's payback time."

There's an old saying: be careful who you chose as your enemy, for they may look just like you.

Stay tuned.

Elin Nordegren People better seller than Sandra's by Suzannah B. Troy

The new issue of People Magazine due out this Friday will leave the Sandra Bullock cover in the dust in terms of sales.

Speaking of this Tuesday, Sandra Bullock will be on Matt Lauer's tv show but she won't talk about baby Louis or Jesse James; she will only talk about Hurricane Katrina.

Back to Elin and People....apparently she had a lot to say.  Sad thing is is Tiger Woods still doesn't get it and when asked about her thoughts he said "I feel the same way."  Wake up Tiger.  You are not capable of feeling the same way.  Here is the video of Tiger posted on TMZ.

Elin Nordegren tells people, "I feel stronger than ever."

She does talk about insomnia, weight loss, hair loss and any one going through trauma or mourning a death whether of a person or a marriage can relate.  (I have been through that when I had to leave my home of 20 years and it was not spousal abuse.)  About half of Americans will get divorced and there are plenty more that want out so this caught people's attention but also because Tiger Woods was such a liar and lead such a dark double life so it will be interesting what happens now that he is free to do what he pleases as long as he doesn't jeopardize his relationship any further.  As these kids get older they will need parenting tips about how to deal with kids taunting them about Woods shocking behavior while married to their Mom.

The People Magazine due out this Friday will see like the Iphone4.  Well not as hot as that but it will be a hot item.  People want to hear what she has to say and what she will do.  How about becoming a model for Adidas?

Here is an article from The New York Times about the Elin Nordegren ending her silence.

I would not want to endure what Elin Nordegren did and I feel sorry for the kids.  It is hard to believe she did not lay a hand or a golf club on him.   She has lived the American Dream starting as an au pere and ending up a mega-millionairess.  Good luck and Elin, I just got my nails done.  My nail polish "I am PeaceKeeper" and all the money for Peacekeeper products go to helping abused women....Please do something to help people that are not as lucky as you that can't walk away and take the kids when they need to.

Pride on,

Greg Camarillo Replaces Vikings Sidney Rice ; Rex Ryan and Tom Brady Feud

A busy day in the NFL. While the NFL Owners state their interest in having an 18-game season, but only as part of a new labor deal, the Miami Dolphins send Wide Receiver Greg Camarillo to The Minnesota Vikings, and NY Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan feuds with New England Patriots QB Tom Brady.

The Vikings traded for the efficient receiver Greg Camarillo (50 catches for 550 yards in 2009) to make up for the loss of Sidney Rice, who's out due to a hip injury. Indeed, the Vikings needed more depth at wideout not just because of Rice's problem, but Percy Harvin's headache issues. Now they have Jevon Walker, Greg Camarillo, Harvin, and Bernard Berrian. In turn they gave up Cornerback Benny Sapp.

Tom Brady and Rex Ryan Feud

Nothing spices up an NFL rivalry like an old fashioned feud, and we've got one going between Rex Ryan and Tom Brady.

According to EPSN, Tom Brady started the talking by saying he didn't the Jets, and would not watch their how Hard Knocks: "I haven't turned it on," Brady said. "I hate the Jets, so I refuse to support that show."

Coach Ryan didn't make it any better. "Hell, he knows we hate the Patriots," Ryan said. "So what's the difference? ... I don't like Tom Brady. I respect him, but I don't like him."

If you think about it, that's the way it's supposed to be: one rival team's suppose to hate the other team. So, it's really not news except that Ryan and Brady are football celebrities.
