NY Post: ‘Empire’ Has Already Jumped the Shark

Friday, October 16, 2015

Empire just broke another record: according to The NY Post, Fox TV’s soap opera musical has already jumped the shark just 4 episodes into it’s 2nd season.
With no plot to speak of and seemingly endless, eye-rolling musical performances by Jussie “the goat” Smollet, viewers are tuning out in droves.

Fox TV execs are struggling to understand why the numbers are in decline from last season.
Empire lost a staggering 6 million viewers since the season premiere last month.
“In short, the excitement that made ‘Empire’ can’t-miss TV is gone,” writes Post TV critic Robert Rorke.
The general consensus seems to be that Empire’s co-creator, the flamboyant, middle-aged queen Lee Daniels, ruined the show by using it for his personal gay agenda.
It doesn’t help that the show’s characters have all switched roles.
From The NY Post:

[L]ast month’s season premiere included a dramatic about-face so inconsistent with what had already happened that it was easy to see that “Empire” was beginning to get away from itself. We’re talking about the final scene, when Jamal (Jussie Smollett) — the gay underdog son who found a champion for his musical ambitions in another underdog, his mother, ex-con Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) — slammed the door in her face, shutting her out of Empire records. Which was now up and running, thanks to her efforts.
Why would he do that? As a flashback from Season 1 reminded us, Lucious (Terrence Howard) tried to put a 5-year-old Jamal in a garbage can when he wore his mother’s kerchief and heels. Even in the mercurial world of soap opera plot twists, where characters’ personalities change on a dime, having Jamal suddenly side with his father was a boneheaded maneuver.

 Honestly i also disliked that part too... I wonder what will happen next tho..                                             Culled from sandra rose.

Woman-On-Woman Rape Rates Rising Sharply in the U.S.

Sunday, October 18, 2015

On Oct. 5, a Lynchburg, Virginia grand jury indicted Julianna Tourmaline Fialkowski, 25, on charges of felony rape; abduction with the intent to defile; enticing another into a dwelling with intent to commit a felony; strangulation; and misdemeanor assault.
Fialkowski’s bail was set at a staggering $8 million.
Nowhere in the court documents or police report does it state Fialkowski was born Joseph David Fialkowski.

Women-on-women rape and violent crime rates are rising sharply in American cities thanks to pro-trans legislation that allows men to violate female boundaries and invade female public spaces.
As far as the news media and the courts are concerned, a woman inflicted horrific violence upon another woman.
Fialkowski gained Internet fame last year when he and his trans supporters bullied a judge into approving his name change to Julianna — despite the fact that he still has male genitals and he is clearly heterosexual.
Joseph Fialkowski’s felony charges stem from an incident on August 17 when he abducted a trans teenager and held her against her will. The teenage victim is a biological female who suffers from gender dysphoria and presents as a male in public.
Fialkowski was also arrested in April on eight counts of producing child pornography.

Thanks to Gender Trender blog for uncovering these stories on trans violence that somehow slip through the cracks and go underreported by the national news media.
Perverts like Fialkowski are taking advantage of the federal government’s lax anti-female laws that benefit cross-dressers and transvestites.
As one commenter wrote:

“The sad part is that these transgender “women” are skewing criminal statistics on women. Women aren’t committing these crimes, men are. Name the problem: male violence.”

As evidence of the twisted delusional fantasy world trans supporters exist in, check out the now-deleted comments left under a trans-positive article on a news media website.

The wackos even created a GoFundme account to pay Fialkowski’s mounting legal bills.

Thank God the judge set his bail at $8 million so these bleeding heart liberals can’t bail him out of jail.
One of the pitiful excuses offered up by trans supporters is these men are heterosexual perverts. But it stands to reason that if trans legislation didn’t exist, the perverts wouldn’t gain easy access to women’s public spaces.
Don’t bother Googling this story. You won’t find any national news media coverage since this story doesn’t fall under GLAAD’s strict policy of only reporting positive LGBT news.

Obasanjo is a liar and an economic illiterate – Soyinka

Obasanjo is a liar and an economic illiterate – Soyinka

 

Prof. Wole Soyinka, has stated that he has no respect for former President Obasanjo, who he describeds as an indescribable liar. Soyinka talked about the former president on Friday night when he responded to questions during a programme tagged: ‘An evening with Wole Soyinka’, organised by Globacom.

Asked to respond to Obasanjo’s assessment of him in the former president’s book titled ‘My Watch’, where he notes that Soyinka is good at hunting and wines but a political illiterate, Soyinka said that he was hardly bothered because he believed that Obasanjo was a liar.

Soyinka said, “Obasanjo is entitled to his opinion. But the question is: ‘Who respects the opinion of a liar?’

I can spend the whole night proving that he is a liar. Obasanjo was once described by an economist, the late Prof Ojetunji Aboyade, as an economic illiterate. They nearly went into blows that night. It was Prof. Mabogunje who separated them.

“So, if an economic illiterate calls somebody a political illiterate, no problem at all.

“In ‘ My Watch’, Obasanjo told the first lie when he said he deplored lies. Anybody who said he never plotted to have an unconstitutional third term in office, even as a writer, I need a word to describe him.”

The former President and the Nobel laureate have been in a running battle taking swipes at each other over a lingering issue between them. Obasanjo had once stated that Soyinka once vowed that the differences between the two of them would not be resolved on earth.

Obasanjo had also in his book, My Watch, and at public events described Soyinka as an expert in wine matters than in political analysis.

He had said:

“For Wole, no one can be good, nor can anything be spot-on politically except that which emanates from him or is ordained by him. His friends and loved ones will always be right and correct, no matter what they do or fail to do. He is surely a better wine connoisseur and a more successful aparo (guinea fowl) hunter than a political critic.

“Wole Soyinka is a gifted man. I have always acknowledged that but he is a bad politician and I have also always said that. That is my own point of view. He may agree with it, he may not agree with it. For instance, I know that if I want somebody to give me the best wine, one of the people I will go to is Wole Soyinka and I know he has a taste for good wine and I said that in the book.”

Home Improvement Tips: Skirting Boards vs Ceramic Tiles

Home Improvement Tips: Skirting Boards vs Ceramic Tiles 

 

Though i wasn't paid to advertise this but its really needed in many homes as some people find it difficult when it comes to decorations and fittings in their new houses so i decided to carry this news. Enjoy and learn.

In most Nigerian homes or projects, pieces from ceramic tiles are used as baseboards (generic method); this is because skirting boards/base boards are seen as dispensable and inessential.

In architecture, a baseboard (also called skirting board, skirting, mopboard, floor molding, as well as base molding) is a board covering the lowest part of an interior wall. Its purpose is to cover the joint between the wall surface and the floor.

It covers the uneven edge of flooring next to the wall;it also protects the wall from kicks, abrasion, and furniture; and gives a wonderful finish to the décor of the room.

Also, skirtings can add a subtle detail to any décor composition – whether sleek and modern, or intricate and traditional; skirting boards add the final finishing touch to any room. At its simplest, baseboard consists of a simple plank nailed, screwed or glued to the wall.

Jabisod Agencies stocks a wide variety of skirting/baseboards (Joint Profiles, MDF, Wood, PVC Vinyl Anti-Moisture & Aluminium) and all types of flooring solutions from Ceramic Tiles to Marble floors, Carpets and Rugs, Laminates and Solid woods, and Vinyl floors. We are a leading supplier of a vast array  of home improvement products such as Wallpapers, Wood Floors(Laminate and Solid), Decking, Deco Paper and Window base.

Aww...Man proposes to GF in the middle of a play at Terrakulture (photos)

How romantic! This happened last night at TerraKulture in VI. A man pleaded with the director of a play to give him some minutes to bring his woman on stage and propose to her. So they stopped the play and the very romantic dude asked his girl to join him on stage where he asked her to be his wife. She said yes of course and the audience cheered. How nice. Congrats to the couple.

Woman robs 3 banks to fund daughter's Party

Woman robs 3 banks to fund daughter's Party

An accused robber told a court she held up three banks in May to raise money for her daughter's graduation party.

Cindy Sanchez Carabeo, 50, of Brandon, Florida, pleaded guity in federal court on Thursday to one count of interfering with interstate commerce by robbery.Carabeo told a judge she robbed the banks to pay for a graduation party for her daughter and to cover her rent. She faces up to 20 years in prison.

Police arrested Carabeo in May after she stole $6,000 from a BB&T Bank, a Wells Fargo and Florida Central Credit Union in Brandon in less than the time it takes to deliver a pizza.

However, investigators nabbed her even faster, according to Larry McKinnon of the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.

"By the time she made it home after that third robbery, within 15 minutes we had her in custody and all three bank managers were able to positively identify her," McKinnon said.

Authorities said McKinnon threatened to kill one teller but wrote "Happy Mother's Day" on the hold-up note. Motherly love hunh!!!
