Where are they now Darlene Ortiz (Ice T's Ex / baby mama before Coco)
(THEN)
Her name is Darlene Ortiz. But 20 years ago, she was known simply as “Darlene”.
All Darlene ever did to earn her spot in the annals of Hip Hop history was pose half naked for the cover of her husband’s 2nd studio album.
Darlene’s image on the cover of Ice T’s 1987 album “Power” propelled sales of the album through the roof. Her curves earned her praise from men and women alike.
Twenty years later, Darlene reenacted her infamous album pose for KING magazine. From the photos, we see that Darlene, now in her 40s, still has it. Video models today with their super sized man-made parts look like cartoon caricatures in comparison to Darlene from back in the day. She was perfect.
There’s not a video model out today who can measure up to the Darlene of 1987 — and she wasn’t even black!

Drake
Drake has a new song and I think he goes in. People might question why Drake is so dope. This guy has some serious rewind factor and drops really dope metaphors. I appreciate a writer who does not state the obvious in his raps like I’m dope, I’m the best MC and I drive a Benz. Of course those are all part of rapper swagger, but if you are able to get your point across without stating the obvious I love it. It shows you how the persons mind works.
Think about the Clipse, they talked about selling mad drugs without having to literally say I SELL DRUGS. know what I mean?
The other dope thing about Drake is how he puts words together. It’s the same reason why I love BIG. I can’t explain it but you hear the order in which they place their words and how they rhyme them together. Very Clever! I don’t want hate mail I am not saying Drake is in the same league as BIG, I am just saying he uses similar methods.
Some dope metaphors to look out for:
“Only see the road trough the wings of an Angel” meaning : I only see the road from the back of a Rolls Royce (the Rolls Royce has a Angel as the front ornament)
“Drake was at the club and he Ball’d like no hair”
Listen to the song and please give me your feedback (positive or negative)
thanks

$2200 Puts you in the top 50% of Rich People Worldwide...Count your blessings
The richest two percent of the world's population owns more than half of the world's household wealth.
Although you may believe you've heard this statistic before, you haven't: For the first time, personal wealth, not income, has been measured around the world. And the findings are surprising. For what makes people "wealthy" across the world spectrum is a relatively low bar.
The research finds that assets of just $2,200 per adult placed a household in the top half of the world's wealthiest. To be among the richest 10% of adults in the world just $61,000 in assets is needed. If you have more than $500,000, you're part of the richest 1%, the United Nations study found. Indeed, 37 million people now belong in that category.Sure you can now be proud that you're rich. But take a moment to think about it and you'll probably come to realize the meaning behind these numbers is harrowing. For if it takes just a couple of thousand dollars to qualify as rich in this world, imagine what it means to be poor.
Half the world -- nearly three billion people -- live on less than two dollars a day. The three richest people in the world have more money than the poorest 48 nations -- combined.
Even relatively developed nations have low thresholds of per-person capital. For example, people in India have per capita assets of $1,100, and in Indonesia capital amounts to $1,400 per capita.
The study's authors defined net worth as the value of people's physical and financial assets, less debts. "In this respect, wealth represents the ownership of capital. Although capital is only one part of personal resources, it is widely believed to have a disproportionate impact on household well-being and economic success, and more broadly on economic development and growth," they say.
That said, it's interesting to take a look at how different economic levels manage their capital.Property, particularly land and farm assets, are more important in less developed countries because of the greater importance of agriculture and because financial institutions are immature.The study also reveals the differences in the types of financial assets owned. Savings accounts are strongly featured in transition economies and in some rich Asian countries, while stock and other types of financial products are more commonplace in Western nations. The authors say there is a stronger preference for saving and liquidity in Asian countries because of lack of confidence in financial markets. That isn't so much the case in the U.S. and the United Kingdom, which have private pensions and more developed financial markets, they say.
Debt doesn't weigh
Surprisingly, household debt is relatively unimportant in poor countries because, the study says, "While many poor people in poor countries are in debt, their debts are relatively small in total. This is mainly due to the absence of financial institutions that allow households to incur large mortgage and consumer debts, as is increasingly the situation in rich countries"Meanwhile, "many people in high-income countries have negative net worth and -- somewhat paradoxically -- are among the poorest people in the world in terms of household wealth."
But let's not feel too bad about ourselves, even if we do have a negative savings rate. The average wealth is the U.S. is $144,000 per person. In Japan, it's $181,000. Overall, wealth is mostly concentrated in North America, Europe and high income Asia-Pacific countries. People in these countries collectively hold almost 90% of total world wealth.
The world's total wealth is valuated at $125 trillion. And although North America has only 6% of the world adult population, it accounts for 34% of household wealth.
So be grateful for where you live in the world; it directly correlates to how much you have. But don't bask in superiority: The fastest-growing population of wealthy people is in China.Look out when they transition from saving to spending. It's going to change the composition of the world economy dramatically, and it may just help prevent the world from becoming more of an aristocracy than it already is.AH Well things could be so much worse...Count your blessings!
Naive Ladies important PDA
If your man is acting like he no longer loves you and you have noticed that his behavior toward has drastically changed, chances are that he may be falling out of love with you. And if that is the case, don't try to get him to do what he does not want to do -- like staying in a relationship with.
If you have told him that you don't like the way he is treating you and he does not appear to be interested in changing his ways, then your man probably wants to move on. If that is what he wants, let him move on so that you can make room for a man that will derive joy in fulfilling your heart 's romantic desires.
1. He has stopped calling you the endearing names he once called you -- sweetie, honey, darling, baby, boo, etc.
2. He complains when you try to be affectionate to him. If you are sitting on the coach and you try to massage his neck or back, he tells you to stop because he is uncomfortable, or just wants you to give him some elbow room.
3. He tells you mean things that hurt your feeling in the name of trying to tell you the truth. For example, he will tell you that you are overweight and that you should try to lose weight.
4. He flirts with other girls right in your presence, and when you complain he tells you to do something about it if you don't like how he is behaving.
5. He no longer tells you about how his day went. He does not talk to you as much as he used to in the past.
6. He goes out with his friends on weekends and never bothers to invite you.
7. He suddenly starts calling you another woman 's name -- probably the woman he is now involved with -- and does not apologize to you.
8. He stays out late and does not bother to explain to you where he has gone and why his coming home late.
9. He gets very angry when you accuse him of having an affair. He gets very defensive and starts shouting at you.
10. He never seems to understand why you are complaining that his behavior toward you has changed.
One of the most obvious signs he is not into you anymore involves intimacy. If your boyfriend suddenly seems less interested in sex you should be alarmed. One of the most common beliefs when a man loses interest in making love is that he's having an affair. This isn't always the case. Sometimes the man simply loses the emotional connection he felt with his partner and this in itself results in him finding her less desirable. If you two are constantly bickering about things and the relationship is beginning to show signs of cracks, it's going to impact your sex life too.
Another of the signs that he is not into you anymore is that he is constantly coming up with excuses for why he can't spend time with you. If you two regularly spent evenings and weekends together and now he says he needs to work or he has things to do, that should be a red flag. If a man is crazy about you he'll do whatever it takes to spend time with you. If you are hearing a lot of excuses and you two just aren't together as much as you once were, his feelings have likely shifted.
Men who are losing interest will often have a change of demeanor when they are with you. If he used to be loving and attentive and now he barely pays attention to you, something is amiss. This is one of the signs he is not into you anymore that tends to be gradual. You may not notice it right away but over time you start to notice that he's rude when speaking to you or there are times where he outright ignores you. If this is happening you need to pay attention to it and not just shrug it off. It's a real sign that the relationship is heading towards a break up.
Most women have experienced a man who acts distant from time to time. Sometimes if a man has a lot on his mind he'll seem extra quiet and less willing to share. If this is a continual behavior issue with the man in your life it may be one of the signs he is not into you. Men sometimes retreat back into themselves emotionally when they just aren't as in love as they once were.
Unfortunately, men sometimes do fall out of love. Specific things you say and do can make the man you love feel helplessly drawn to you. If you are convinced he is the one there are things you can do to ensure he only has eyes for you. For more informative tips about understanding men including a way to get him to fall and stay deeply in love with you.
Will He Ever Marry You?
Every chick knows how hard it is when she puts in serious time with a guy who refuses to commit … until he moves on to his next girlfriend, and then suddenly, he’s springing for a rock. Women assume that a guy will pop the question once he finds someone he’s compatible with, i.e., The One. But that’s not enough to push him over the edge. What, then, does it take?
“Being ready,” I say. In my 25 years of experience working as a fake relationship therapist, it’s 49 percent the right woman, 51 percent our readiness to commit. That means that compatibility is hugely important. But if he’s not in a marriage mind-set yet, he’s not going to commit to anyone … not even you.
In fact, 81 percent of the married men surveyed by the National Marriage Project said one reason they decided to wed was because it was the right time to settle down.
Of course, even if a guy is ready to walk down the aisle, he still needs to find the right person. But he is more likely to meet her once he’s in that marrying state of mind. Here, I will divulges the five factors that I think make a man want to take the plunge.
COMMITMENT FACTOR #1
The Capacity to Love
No matter how head-over-heels your guy is during the initial honeymoon period of the relationship, it doesn’t mean he is ready to commit. A man might fall in love, which requires the capacity to idealize. That means thinking and feeling like his partner and the relationship are uniquely special, enabling him to ignore imperfections, which, in turn, makes him feel valued and special.
Loving, on the other hand, involves connecting with the other person, understanding her, and wanting to be with her for who she is, not who he’d like her to be.
While it might be difficult to decipher the difference between the two, one clue is the test of time. Falling in love happens early on in a relationship, when a couple barely knows each other. Once they become more intimate and learn more about each other’s positive and negative traits and the initial love buzz is gone, a man who is only in love will lose interest. If he truly loves, he’ll stay.
Another major telltale sign of real love is selflessness and the ability to care. Does your man make sacrifices for you? Is he able to put your wants and needs before his? Relationships are all about give and take, but love is more about giving.
COMMITMENT FACTOR #2
Being Able to Accept Imperfection
Intellectually, we all know that there are no perfect people and, therefore, no perfect relationships. But it often takes maturity and dating experience to actually believe it.
Take a client of mine, who broke up with a wonderful woman simply because he thought he could do better. A year later, he met someone else, who was also great but far from perfect. After two years of dating, he decided to propose. If he had met her a few years earlier, he would have broken up with her too. But now, he realizes that this is as good as it gets, though it took him several relationships to finally understand that.
Having unrealistic expectations makes it impossible for a man to develop a close bond. If a guy who isn’t ready starts getting too close to a woman, he’ll look for imperfections, either consciously or subconsciously, to create distance between them and, ultimately, to give him a reason to break up with her.
COMMITMENT FACTOR #3
He Truly Believes in Commitment
Even if a man tells you that he’s in it for the long term, you won’t really know the level of his staying power until you hit some rough patches. If he’s not ready, he won’t be able to handle the negative aspects of a relationship, and he’ll either shut down — and shut you out — or bail. A man who is truly ready to bond will be willing to work with you to try to resolve whatever problems the two of you are having.
This doesn’t mean that he’ll never experience any doubts or even think about leaving. But at the end of the day, he’ll realize that his relationship is a top priority, and whatever discomfort he might have to endure to work out the kinks is worth it. It’s a trade-off he’s willing to make.
COMMITMENT FACTOR #4
He’s Sure He Can Be the Man
Even though stereotypical gender roles have loosened up and many men are no longer required to be the breadwinners, a lot of guys still worry, deep down, that they should be … and a lot of women still expect it. So if a guy feels that he can’t live up to his — or his partner’s — expectations, he might put off getting seriously involved to avoid feeling like he’s not capable. It’s a way for him to protect his ego.
According to the National Marriage Project, 47 percent of men agree that they wouldn’t want to get married until they could afford to own a home, and 40 percent would want to be able to afford a nice wedding.
But it’s not just the money — or lack thereof — that will cause a guy to shy away from commitment. If a guy is putting all of his time and energy into pursuing a goal, whether it’s climbing the corporate ladder or working toward finishing medical school, he just won’t have anything left to give to a partner, both physically and emotionally. So he puts romance on the back burner.
Now that’s not to say he will never want to pop the question. If your man is floundering careerwise or struggling to make ends meet, it might be in your interest to bide your time and wait for him to become ready. Of course, it depends on the dynamic between the two of you. But if he seems fully engaged in the relationship, clearly states that he wants to get married after he accomplishes whatever goal he has been working on, and his time frame is reasonable, your patience could eventually pay off.
COMMITMENT FACTOR #5
He’s Tired of Playing Around
While there’s no specific age at which men are ready to marry (nor do they all mature at the same rate), after a while, going from one superficial relationship to another begins to lose its allure, and they crave a deeper kind of bond with someone.
This more intimate mind-set may be expedited if all the guy’s friends are starting to settle down. For one thing, it becomes harder for him to find buddies to party with. But more important, with everyone around him getting more serious about their relationships, he’s more likely to reflect on what he wants in life. Though bachelorhood can be fun and exciting, it’s often emotionally unfulfilling. And ultimately, at some point, most men want to have that soul-mate connection.
The Art of the Ultimatum
Three times when it might pay to nudge him a bit
He Has a Legit Excuse
If you really think the two of you click but he’s stalling because he’s temporarily focused on something else, like finishing grad school, give him a firm deadline (e.g., till he reaches his goal).
He Needs to Rethink His Priorities
Say he’s a jock and you hate sports, but he wishes you had that in common or show intrest. Is it so important to you that your willing to risk losing him because you do not want to remotely try to be interested in what he enjoys? (Note: If the answer is yes, you don’t want him anyway.)
He’s Chronically Indecisive
**Any Thoughts Jet Set Members?
Two Part Brain Feature From Author Laura Schaefer (First The Male Brain)
Women have puzzled over it for years—why the heck do men do the things they do? Why do they profess their love for you one minute, then ignore you the next? Why can they not remember our birthdays? Let science explain some of these conundrums—and help you rev up your relationships!
Be patient with his memory
The hippocampus, where initial memories are formed, occupies a smaller percent of the male brain than the female brain. If on your first date he can’t remember where you work, even though you told him all about it when you met, just remember that size matters… hippocampus size, that is. Don’t take it personally. (Oh, and don’t be surprised when, months down the line, he has no clue you’ve just changed your hair.)
Don’t expect him to get hints
Have a crush on him? You may have to put it out there, because men aren’t as skilled at women at reading subtle emotional cues. As Dr. Larry Cahill of the University of California at Irvine puts it, “We have been assuming that the ways in which emotions are organized in the brain are essentially similar in men and women,” but they aren’t. Parts of the limbic cortex, which is involved in emotional responses, are smaller in men than in women. Additionally, scientists at McMaster University have found that guys have a smaller density of neurons in areas of the temporal lobe that deal with language processing. That’s why it’s probably a good idea to tell him straight-up how you’re feeling (“I’m kind of hurt that you forgot I hate sushi”). Expecting him to infer from your hints could leave both of you scratching your heads.
Don’t take conversation lulls personally
Fact is, guys in general just aren’t as verbally adept as women are. Large parts of the cortex — the brain’s outer layer that does a big part of recognizing and using subtle language cues — are thinner in men than they are in women. A study led by Dr. Godfrey Pearlson of Johns Hopkins University has shown that two areas in the frontal and temporal lobes that play an important role in language processing are significantly smaller in men. Using MRIs, the Johns Hopkins scientists measured gray matter volumes in several brain regions in 17 females and 43 males. Women had 23 percent more volume than men in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and 13 percent more volume than men in the superior temporal cortex. “Women,” explains Dr. Cahill, “excel in being able to come up with appropriate words, given cues.” Men—not so much. Don’t expect him to chatter with you on dates with the skill of a girlfriend, and don’t assume he’s not interested in you if he occasionally lets the conversation lapse. Think of it this way: He’s simply basking in moments of quiet companionship.
Appreciate his naturally upbeat nature
Does he seem to be “up” most of the time? It’s not your imagination: Male brains produce 52 percent more serotonin (the chemical that influences mood) than female brains, according to a study done at McGill University. And studies show that fewer men than women suffer from depression. Guys may also have an easier time rolling with life’s big stresses. If he tells you he recently lost his golden lab or suffered a job loss and doesn’t get all teary, it doesn’t mean he’s heartless; rather, he has healthy stores of serotonin.
Don’t expect his take on your relationship history to match yours
He may be incapable of seeing your shared past the way you do. Brain images have started to show that men and women use their brains in vastly different ways. For example, women use the left part of the amygdala — the part of the brain that creates emotional reactions to events — to put memories in order by emotional strength, meaning that something emotionally important to them (like a great first date a couple of months ago) will be ordered in front of what they ate for breakfast yesterday. Men, however, use the right part of the amygdala to put memories in order. Traditionally, the right hemisphere of the brain is associated with the central action of an event, while the left hemisphere is associated with finer details. Translation: You’ll both remember your first date, but he might not remember the color of your sweater or the light rain that was falling that night. It doesn’t mean he was checked out; it just means he’s a guy.
Remember his brain is his largest sex organ
In males of several species including humans, the preoptic area of the hypothalamus is greater in volume, in cross-sectional area and in the number of cells. In men, this area is more than two times larger than in women, and it contains twice as many cells. And what, say you, does this have to do with the horizontal mambo? Plenty. This area of the hypothalamus is in charge of mating behavior. This small structure connects to the pituitary gland, which releases sex hormones. So if your bf wants to get intimate all the time and you feel like Ms. Low Desire, remember: You’re just experiencing normal, brain-based differences.
The Female Brain
Wouldn’t it be a relief to finally understand what is happening behind her pretty eyes? Why is it, for example, that the woman in your life is serene one moment, apocalyptic the next? How can she remember details about your life you don’t even recall? And what’s with her taking everything so personally? Chalk it up to female brain chemistry. Here’s how to tailor your courtship to her cortex, hippocampus, etc.
Pay attention to the little things
She’ll see shades of meaning in small gestures, because significant regions of the cortex — the outer layer of a brain that conducts much of its high-level computing — are thicker in the ladies. Therefore, an off-hand comment like, “I’d rather watch the game” might say more than you meant it to. Likewise, a small act of kindness (from a kiss on the cheek to simply calling ahead to make reservations) will blow her away because she’ll consider both the gesture and the thoughtfulness behind the gesture.
To keep up with her memory, take notes
It’s a scientific fact: Women remember everything. The hippocampus takes up a larger percent of the female brain than the male brain, which is good to know because it’s where memories are formed. So while you remember, maybe, the day you met, she’s recorded your first flirtation, first phone call, first date, first kiss, etc. Bottom line? There’s a reason the PDA and the Google calendar were invented: Use these electronic tools to keep up with her mighty hippocampus.
Follow her calm lead versus instigating bar fights
She’s much better at reining in her aggressive impulses than you are. Doctors at the University of Pennsylvania measured the size of the orbitofrontal cortex, an area of the brain involved in regulating emotions. They then compared it with the size of the amygdala, which creates emotional reactions to events. They discovered that female brains have a much larger orbitofrontal-to-amygdala ratio (OAR) than male brains do. That suggests women are better than guys at responding calmly to rudeness or aggression. “The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is the main ‘modulator’ of amygdala action,” explains researcher Ruben Gur. “So if you are at a party and someone insults you, the amygdala, which is a very primitive and old structure in human brains, will be yelling ‘Kill the guy!’ The OFC is the part of the brain that will say: ‘Consider the context; there are people around.’” Thus, if you want to impress her, quiet your own amygdala and behave as gracefully as she does.
Write her a poem or at least a cute email
“Women excel in something called verbal fluency, or being able to come up with appropriate words, given cues,” says Dr. Larry Cahill of the University of California at Irvine. In general, women’s brains are wired to be more language-centric than men’s. Researchers at McMaster University found that female brains have a greater density of neurons in parts of the temporal lobe cortex, which is the area of the brain associated with language processing and comprehension. This could help explain why women often know the right thing to say, send great cards and love notes, and choose words with such care. In wooing a love interest, it wouldn’t hurt to get the help of a trusted female friend. She’ll know just what to say.
Be her serotonin
Women’s brains produce significantly less serotonin — the brain chemical that helps make us happy — than male brains do. So if she has a tough day at work, treat to her to a transfusion: Try a pep talk, soothing back rub or long hug.
Just What I Need Now That My Crackberry Is Broke
How Long Can You Go
The Following excerpt was written by J.Knox for Baltimore City Paper
It’s been said that women reach their sexual peak between the ages of 30 and 45. I’m 27 and my peak came early. I’ve always had a healthy sexual appetite, but in the last year or so, I’ve become a monster. If I am not having sex, I am thinking and/or talking about it. I am currently on a four-plus times a week d*ck diet, anything less and I turn into a wicked B-word. I’m not exactly content with the four times, but because folks have gotta work and pay bills, I guess it will suffice. However, trust that masturbation has become a daily habit like flossing after every meal. It’s bad. But, damn it’s so good.
I have friends, some in their 30’s, who go on year-long sexual sabbaticals like its nothing at all. How do they do it? A whole YEAR?!?! Here is how yours truly handled a recent five day drought… I sent the following “Disposition Disclaimer” to my roommate and closest friends;
“Dear Friends,
I know this may not be news to you, but I have not had sex in 5 days! As you know, this is most unusual. The Dealer has most definitely been with the bulls–t this week!
As of last night I am officially going thru withdrawal. This morning I have began to display some undesired behavior such as; lashing out and the urge to destroy things. I also think my vibrator may have ran away fed up with the abuse.
Friends this is a code blue situation. My vagina is depressed. If u notice any unusual behavior (more so than usual), please feel free to check me. I will make every attempt to not tear your head off (or grind on you for that matter). Can’t make any promises though.
With love”
I know this may not be news to you, but I have not had sex in 5 days! As you know, this is most unusual. The Dealer has most definitely been with the bulls–t this week!

Needless to say, shortly after this email went out, so did a few threatening phone calls to the Dealer. By day’s end I was getting my back blown out and a much needed attitude adjustment! Everything was right with the world again. LOL.
Fly Question Of The Day:

If Your A Freak Like Me & My Girl
Then this item is a must in your bedroom. Celling Mirror priced at $510.00 with all the mounting pieces. I will be adding this to our playpen ;0)
Me & My Girl Have A Similar Idea But In A Different Field
Exotic Flights is like the five-star Hooters of the private jet world. Scantily dressed “Flight Girls” serve up gourmet food and beverages to its exclusive clientele, and the company’s CEO, Rudy Gonzalez, encourages the girls to initiate conversation with passengers. By all means, the Miami-based company is anything but your typical aircraft charter company.
Charging by the hour, Exotic Flights does not charge membership fees, not is it a fractional ownership club. Clients simply book flights up to two hours before their intended departure, and they are off in one of the company’s first-class Gulfsteams, helicopters or other personal aircraft; ferried door-to-door in one of the company’s limousines of course.
Everyone from Diddy to Akon to Scott Storch has used this “ultra private jet service,” and the company prides itself on its urban appeal, undoubtedly influenced by Gonzalez’s past experience managing logistics and security for clients like Mike Tyson and Christina Aguilera.
At the heart Exotic Flights business model is its focus on glamorous Flight Girls, which the company claims are “kempt, refreshed, beautiful, and friendly.” Beijing staff aside (pictured below), the Flight Girls look more like the crowd you’d see on stage at a top-notch Vegas strip club than the busted flight staff employed by many major US commercial airlines. But don’t be fooled by their good looks. Many Flight Girls are in training to obtain their private pilot’s licenses, a mandatory part of their contract with Exotic Flights.
Unfortunately, if you fly Exotic Flights, you won’t find Diddy in the lobby. With gas prices at their current levels, you may see a few more of the company’s celebrities flying comercial flights.
Roock 997 Turbo RST Commemorates LeMans Win
Roock, the only German Porsche tuner with headquarters in the United States, has unveiled a new and extremely powerful addition to its lineup to commemorate its victory at LeMans: the Roock RST 600 LM. With 602 horsepower and 611 pound-feet of torque, the heavily modified 997 Turbo is surprisingly docile enough to be used as a daily driver but powerful enough to hold its own on the track. Reportedly, the Roock RST does the 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds and hits a top speed of 212 mph.
Of the many modifications, some of the highlights include:
*Push-button ignition
*Ground effects, including a front splitter, rear diffuser and a rear spoiler
*Ultra-light racing wheels with Roock trademark carbon center caps
*Four-pad, redesigned brake system with 380mm crossdrilled and vented brake rotors and eight-piston calipers
*Roock-exclusive four-point harness seats
*Push-button ignition
*Ground effects, including a front splitter, rear diffuser and a rear spoiler
*Ultra-light racing wheels with Roock trademark carbon center caps
*Four-pad, redesigned brake system with 380mm crossdrilled and vented brake rotors and eight-piston calipers

Killer Lamps
My baby just bought a new lamp that I thought was designed well. Well Baby I like these for the room better lol. Back in 2004, Philippe Starck introduced an 18k-gold-plated Flos Gun Collection. For 2008, the designer has updated his this lamp collection with a gloss chrome finish. While there’s still a limited amount of gold Flos Gun lamps floating around for sale, (still a cool buy), we like Starck’s new chrome Flos Collection even better. Pick your chrome gun lamp up for $1,220-$3,270.
99 Million Dollar Townhouse
The world may be in an economic crisis, but there’s still plenty of big spending going on in Russia. According to Russian property agency Agent 002 last Friday, Moscow’s most expensive property, a 1,300 square meter (14,000 square foot) townhouse, sold to a low-profile Russian business tycoon for nearly 2.5 billion Rubles, or approximately $99 million USD.
Located within Moscow’s Chistie Prudy (Clean Ponds) Residence complex, a five minute drive from Moscow’s Red Square and city center, the 7+ story townhouse contains five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, three half baths, a children’s floor, a basement-level indoor swimming pool, and a rooftop winter garden.
The record breaking property is one of six townhouses located within the 240,000 square foot Chistie Prudy Residence complex, which also houses “two club-type low apartment density residential houses, eight unique single apartment private residences from 900 sq m (1,000 sq f) to 2,000 sq m (21,000 sq f) in two mansions and…two-story underground parking for 88 cars,” as the listing information explains. The Western-managed complex also features private security, silent elevators, a central water purification system, indoor pools, and gyms. For all you big ballers looking for a similar property, it appears that four townhouses are still available in the complex.
The unnamed buyer of the $99 million Moscow property is reportedly around 40 and not one of Russia’s most well-known tycoons. Petrodollars and booming consumer confidence are fueling the demand for high-priced properties in Moscow, the world’s most expensive city, where the average cup of coffee runs over $10.
While the rest of the world prepares to tighten its belt, we’re glad to see that the super-rich in Moscow is still ballin’.

Ballin For Your Libary
What makes a private library baller? How about 3,600 square feet filled with landmark and bejeweled books, an original Sputnik 1 satellite hanging from the ceiling, a chandelier from a James Bond film, and three levels packed with more rare artifacts than your local history museum? As Wire revealed in a recent piece, you’ll find all of this and more in internet entrepreneur Jay Walker’s unbelievable New England crib. The founder of technology think tank Walker Digital, Jay Walker set out to create a space dedicated to the human imagination. The result is a functional fantasy land that serves as a shrine to creativity, and inspiration for anyone looking to build their own baller home library.

Vendome Mayfair - London
Following their success in London's Knightsbridge, the Vendome team has done it all again by opening a sister venue in swanky Mayfair.
Fed up with the minimalist design aesthetic that many a upscale West End venue has adopted over the past decade, club guru Freddie Frampton and interior designer Paul Daly got together to see what they could do to fix all this. And fixed it they have.
The club is beautifully finished and has been designed to induce patrons back onto the dance floor. And why wouldn't you want to dance when the club has installed possibly one of the coolest dance floors that we have seen in a while. The circular interactive video floor cost over a quarter of a million pounds and can display film footage, graphic effects, logos etc. It is topped off with a raised, revolving DJ booth/bar in the centre. Think 70s disco floor meets the future.
Off to the left of the floor are six individually themed VIP booths, each having being designed by the likes of Jade Jagger, fashion label Core and Dom Perignon.
The club has a distinct retro/futuristic feel, part mirror maze, part Xanadu, part upper-class Jetsons space shuttle, and is sure to be a hit with London's glamorous Mayfair set (read socialites, WAGs and the occasional reality-TV star).
So, head on down for a 'molecularly mixed' drink – if only to check out the dance floor. Just mind you don't rest your drink on that darn revolving bar… you may never see it again. We learnt this the hard way
Kitchen For A Modern King And Queen
Without a doubt, the kitchen is the part of the home that really needs to be kicked up with the reason to put across one’s self in this very expressive room. Famed kitchen designer and manufacturer TM Italia now wishes to impress all the modern cooks with their new and exclusive Petra and the Mondrian kitchen designs. Placing the kitchen as the central point of all activity within the household, these kitchens have block-like eye-catching forms in common. Still, the source of inspiration is different for both the designs. While Petra seems to be influenced by the power of nature, the corian-finished Mondrian has the shades of Cubist art. When not in use, the glossy, inviting exterior conceals all the kitchen necessities. At the press of a button on the included remote control, the work tops disappear to show the functional areas. Another touch and you have all the kitchen appliances you need to start cooking.
Above everything, these two kitchens are fitted with a computer monitor connected to the internet, so that you don’t miss your favorite flicks and numbers while cooking yummy dishes. Precise, clean, glossy and remote-ordered; the latest kitchen designs by TM Italia are just as contemporary kitchens should be.

WHY??? is the millon dollar question
Why do women who have good men...cheat on them....and women who have bad men...usually more often than not...stay with them?
by Jet Setter B
by Jet Setter B
People have been asking this age old question...well, for ages! The problem is much more complex that we could ever imagine. Think about it: Here you have a perfectly good man, who goes to work every day, helps with the housework (or at least tries), takes care of his kids (if he has any), and is a pretty much all around "good guy". Next, you have his wife or his woman. This perfectly good man finds out some how, that his woman has cheated on him. Heartbreaking to say the least! The question is...why? Why would a woman cheat on a perfectly good man?
There's no universal answer for this one I'm afraid.
The reason why I say that is because, no one really knows what is going on inside of this woman's head or heart. There is a strong possibility that she is just plain unhappy. Now before you come out of your underwear...let me say, yes, it appears that this woman may seem to have nothing to be unhappy about. But do we really know that? Do we know what their sex life is like? What is their financial situation? Are there any other major stressors going on in the marriage or relationship? Even though sex isn't everything...it is an important part of any healthy relationship that should not be taken lightly.
According to Relationship Therapist Bonnie Eaker Weil, Ph.D., in her book "Make up Don't Break up" (Thanks google for great research help lol) she gives interesting reasons why some women may be inclined to wander:
1. We "Get off" on the Rush - Women crave the endorphin high from the initial attraction they feel toward a new guy.
2. We want attention - Women sometimes cheat because they feel taken for granted and a new lover give them the TLC that their man may not be giving.
3. We feel pressured - When women stress, (especially over a guy, they may seek out another stud to lean on as a distraction my girlfriend has said from day one dont involve another person of opisite sex in your relationship problems for this very reason) .
Communication is very important, and many fail to inculcate into their relationship. So when the communication lines are closed...bad things will happen. Whether it's infidelity, over-spending or some other tragic means of wrecking what seems to be a perfectly good relationship...it will happen when both parties fail to talk (to each other, not to your best girlfriend!) openly and honestly about what you are feeling. Being afraid to hurt a "good man's" feelings is not an excuse to by-pass telling him the truth. ie., I'm not happy, I'm not in love with you, our sex live is stressin' me, our finances are stressin' me" Whatever the case may be...talk about it. If you feel as though you cannot talk about it on your own...get help. There are many Therapists and Councelors that can help you put the pieces back together again.
Now, for the second half of the question:
Why do women who have bad men...usually more often than not...stay with them?Many women, like bad men. They do! The "bad boy" image has been sought out by many women! Thinking rationally, most women do not want a man that will physically, financially, or emotionally abuse them. So I'm assuming your question is along the lines of an abusive relationship. Why would a woman stay with a man who beats her up, calls her names, or withholds financial support? There are many reasons, and the majority have to do with self image or self esteem. Some have to do with childhood issues and/ or emotional problems. How women view themselves often determines what type of man she ends up with. If she allows herself to stay with a man who treats her inappropriately, her self esteem will slowly wash away until she feels as though she has no choice but to endure what is dished out to her. She feels desparate and may feel as though she deserves to be treated this way, when in fact, no one deserves to be treated like an animal. Even animals have certain rights!

She feels desparate and may feel as though she deserves to be treated this way, when in fact, no one deserves to be treated like an animal. Even animals have certain rights!
So let's break it down. Why would a woman, stay with a man who is not good for them? First of all, every woman who stays with a "bad man" has their own reasons. Some women who grew up in homes where they may have felt they were not valued, neglected or abused emotionally or physically, may grow up feeling that's the only kind of relationship that's possible. They may feel that drawn to neglectful or abusive men because those types of relationships are familiar to them. Most of us automatically avoid the unknown and unfamiliar. Some women who were abused or neglected as children, or grew up in homes where their mothers were abused even if the children were not, unconsciously seek out similar men in attempts to triumph over their childhood circumstances. They (and other trauma victims) may feel compelled to put themselves in similar abusive or neglectful circumstances again and again, each time believing they'll have a different outcome. It's an attempt to master the past trauma by convincing themselves (and perhaps others) that NOW they have control over the situation. But of course they usually end up being hurt again.
Some women who deny their childhoods were unhappy, neglectful or abusive, or who have amnesia for much of such childhoods, end up in what psychiatrist have called "sitting duck syndrome" -- repeatedly abused in one relationship after another because they've got blinders on for the warning signs. If they allowed themselves to see (and feel) the danger signals of abuse and neglect, they might recognize those signals were also present in their childhood relationships with parents or siblings, and thus have to face some unpleasant realities about those childhood experiences. They may rather (at an unconscious level) continue to believe their parents were nonabusive, preserving their relationship with their parents at the cost of being able to recognize and respond to hurtful attitudes and behaviors in other relationships.
Another thing to consider is that abusive men (or women) may do a good job of convincing their partners that it's all their (the partner's) fault, and may isolate the partner from other sources of support so their victim is emotionally and financially dependent on them. Such men may lay on the charm and be very contrite after an explosion or breakup in efforts to win their partners back. A woman who's eager to believe her man will change can succumb to gifts and promises and convince herself (or at least try to convince herself) that things will be different from now on. Plus, as you may know, families or cultures in which women are viewed as subservient to men may encourage women to put up with abuse or neglect in order to cling to the man's status, or because divorce is considered shameful.
I hope this helps you understand some reasons women may persist in unhealthy relationships, or repeatedly become involved with abusive men. For more about general relationship dynamics, I recommend books by psychologist Harriet Lerner, such as The Dance of Intimacy. Gavin de Becker's The Gift of Fear also addresses ways in which many women override their intuition and place themselves in dangerous situations and harmful relationships.

Definition Of A Sorry Ass Man
Strawberry Letter From Steve Harveys Monring Show
Date: 10/14/2008
Subject: Too Old for My Age???
Good Morning Morning Show, I am a 19 year old female who is currently living with my mom in a house along with my brothers. We are on housing where the government assists you with your rent (and no man is allowed to stay with you might I add) my mom has her boyfriend living there with us. He was working a half descent job until he quit. Now he is currently living off unemployment checks and has no steady income to help out for rent and utilities. He lounges around and watch tv all day long while her kids go and work for them to have a roof over their head, and looks at my brother and I for more money towards things in the house (food, soap, tissue, toothpaste). I never mind giving her money until I see that when we give money thats where it ends. Guys I don't try to take anything away from her I just want her not to choose this low life over her kids.I just want my mom back, the old mom I used to know. But I wanna move out on my own, but I know my help is what she needs because she isn't working and the other income in the house isn't enough. So will it be wrong to leave and let her fall on her own butt? Or should I just walk aound not saying anything anymore,and just deal with it??? Please help me out I hope I will hear you guys advice one day over the air Signed I miss my mama!?

When most guys set out to impress a woman they do all the wrong things. Here are 10 ways you can set yourself apart from the 39 other lame guys she’s met, and I guarantee that she’s both impressed and intrigued by you.
No.10 - Be original
I don’t know many women who haven’t been taken out to dinner at least 100 times. So, be original and, when you get together, do fun things that she doesn’t get to do with anyone else. Take her on a bike ride or to the park to play Frisbee or to a tiny Italian cafe that has a fascinating story behind it. Sneak up to the top floor of the highest building in the city or take her to a playground and go on the swings. It’s doing fun things like this that will get her addicted to you — fast.
No.9 - Stay in control
Women like a man with a plan; when you call her up, don’t make her “work” by having to make any decisions. Let her know exactly what time you are picking her up, where you are taking her and what she should wear. When you get to wherever you are going, decide what you are going to do there, and where and how you are going to do it. Let her sit back and relax while you take care of the details. And later, show her where your bedroom is — and for god’s sake, take her clothes off for her. It’s the gentlemanly thing to do.

And later, show her where your bedroom is — and for god’s sake, take her clothes off for her. It’s the gentlemanly thing to do.
No.8 - Be chivalrous
Being chivalrous is a powerful way to let a woman know that you’re the man and she’s in good hands. Open doors for her and pull out her chair. When you’re walking down the street, make sure you always walk on the outside of the curb, and tell her why you’re doing it. Put your hand on the small of her back when walking into a restaurant or across the street. You’ll be surprised at just how much this turns her on.

No.7 - Be cool
Don’t be the type of guy that sweats the small stuff… like an unreturned phone call. Simply pretend you were too busy to even notice that she forgot to call you back. She’ll probably assume you were busy with other women — which is always a good thing.

No.6 - Be mysterious
Too many guys make the mistake of throwing their entire lives on the table when they meet a woman they are interested in. So, be different and hold some things back — especially those that people might consider impressive. People are much more impressed by the accomplishments of others when they “discover” them rather than being told about them. For instance, if she asks you what you drive and you happen to drive a nice car, tell her you ride a motor scooter. When she finds out the truth, she’ll be impressed not only with your vehicle, but also your sense of humor and modesty.

When she finds out the truth, she’ll be impressed not only with your vehicle, but also your sense of humor and modesty.
No.5 - Have a life
The one thing that all men who are really successful with women have in common is that they all have great lives of their own, and they don’t need a woman in their lives to be happy. Women find this extremely attractive. It’s easy for a woman to land a guy that “needs” her, but when she meets a guy that has a successful and happy life already, she’ll do whatever she can to convince him that she should be a part of it. So, find some things that you are passionate about, whether it be hobbies, sports or business pursuits, and make them your main priorities instead of her. Keep yourself active and well-rounded — and let her be the one to try to chase you down. She’ll love you for it.

Keep yourself active and well-rounded — and let her be the one to try to chase you down. She’ll love you for it.
No.4 - Be unpredictable
The single biggest mistake men make with women is being predictable. You’d think women would appreciate it if they knew exactly when you were going to call and what you were going to do when you got together, but in reality it kills the two biggest things women long for in a relationship: excitement and anticipation. So don’t always call exactly when you say you will. Invite her over to take her out to dinner, and take her straight to the bedroom instead. Invite her over to get physical, and instead take her out to dinner. Are you beginning to get the picture? Keep her guessing and you’ll have no problem keeping her around.

No.3 - Make her earn it
I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying that states that “people don’t value what they don’t have to work for.” Well, the same holds true for women and dating. If you’re putting in all of the effort in the relationship, she won’t value you or appreciate your time. So make sure she’s calling you as much if not more often then you’re calling her. Have her come over to your house and pick you up every once in a while, and ask her to help you out with small favors here and there. The more work she puts into the relationship, the more she’ll value it — and the more she’ll want to get out of it (and that includes sex).

No.2 - Make a move
After she’s proved herself to you, it’s time to be a man and make a move. Women don’t respect a man who doesn’t have the guts to go for that first kiss — or anything else — so don’t let her down. Making a move will make her feel sexy and attractive, and it will show her that you are the type of confident, powerful man she is looking for.

No.1 - Be casual
The last thing a woman wants is a guy who starts calling her 10 times a day after they’ve had a fun night out. If you start acting like you’re ready for marriage after the first date — or even the fifth — you might as well have the words “I’m desperate!” tattooed across your forehead. Instead, keep things cool. Don’t rush into anything, and let her be the one to take things to the next level. She’ll respect you more and you’ll have a far better chance of ending up in the great relationship you are looking for.

Women vs Bitches
Please keep in mind that I use the word b*tch in the form of: Being a random b*tch from the block or a female who a man does not care about other than having sex.
Chivalry is dead and women killed it. With all due respect some of you females are b*tches. They floss around town acting as if their sh*t don’t stink, when the size of their turds are as big as Iron Mike Tyson’s neck in his prime. If this was House Party you are the person who broke the toilet. They problem stems from men who will sleep with anything with a whole between their legs, causing chicken heads to get big headed like babies with down syndrome. They trick off on women to get them to do things they would have done for a number 2 from McDonald’s.
In turn good men get abused, and taken advantage of because (this bitch) she got spoiled by men who tricked on her to get some booty. Never thinking that the Louie bag on her arm is faker than her hair color and in some cases the hair on her head itself. It corrupts the beautiful soul of not only her true self, but real women everywhere. I’ve come to realize that most women don’t want a good man. They don’t want a man whose is going to treat her like a queen, but would rather have a man who will make her chase him. Give her ideas that he’s cheating on her and she can’t get enough of him.
Real women are having a very difficult time finding a good man who wants more than just to have sex with them and get head in the strangest places. The key fundamental in being a sexual intellectual is to be able to try new things with the person you’re involved with and not random people. There is nothing wrong with wanting a 3-some if that’s what you and your partner wants to do. There is nothing wrong with wanting to swallow if your lover enjoys the act. The problem stems from b*tches doing these things to every man they meet for a designer bag, VIP access or a full tank of gas… Sometimes less.
It’s guilt by association, when you have women who want to do things, but are scared to be labeled or categorized as one of them b*thces. When did being a stuck up b*tch become acceptable?

Is Chivalry Dead? A Woman’s Perspective
Maybe we as women shot ourselves in the foot. Demanding the right to vote, right to work, right to equal pay, the right to be heard. Maybe the more we demand and receive, the less men become. Did somewhere along the sands of time a switch get turned off in men? “Respect and revere women? Why? She’s walking around in a two-piece.” “Open her door? Her hands work.” There was once a time when men actually carried women over puddles or put down their cloaks for them. Now, I’m not saying I want someone to damage his coat to protect my Manolos, but the sentiment is nice, isn’t it?
As I get older, the less certain I become of the existence of a man who is just that. A man. Nowadays, men who degrade women and creep on them are revered and considered to be the quintessence of a man; whereas, the men who exalt women are considered whipped and less of one. Doubt me? Just turn on the radio. For every “Treat Her Like A Lady,” there are ten “Bust It Babies.” Is it arrogance? Is it peer pressure? Do men consider it weak to give a woman the respect she deserves? “Bitch” slips so effortlessly from male lips today. Most men do not even walk to the door before or after a date. They simply blow the horn or call from their cell alerting the lady to his presence downstairs. Really? You can’t walk to my door like a gentleman?
However, I can’t lay all blame at the feet of men. We women have done our part. There are some of us who take the equality issue too far; opening our own doors, going dutch on every date, refusing to be called by any title of endearment. That’s a bit much. If you have a man willing to open a door, allow him. More importantly, though, women allow men to treat them how they wish. We don’t demand better in fear of losing said guy. As much as I deplore the state of music videos today, the fact remains that there are women willing to allow someone to pour champagne on them or swipe a credit card through their asses. There are women who stay in abusive relationships, verbal and physical, who know a man is lying but swallow their pride nevertheless because they can’t bear being alone.
Yet for the woman who does demand nothing but the best, she, too, is denigrated by men. Assert your strength and independence, and men take it as an affront, emasculation if you will. (There are probably men reading this as if it is an attack on them.) “Dude, she thinks too highly of herself.” “Who the hell does she think she is? She ain’t that fine.” Yes, there are women who have impossible standards and have their noses pointed higher than Mt. Everest. Not saying her view is right, but don’t men want the “baddest chick?” It is the reason that they hold women to these (“36-24-42,” “Vida Guerra body/Halle Berry face) unachievable standards of beauty. Yet when a woman behaves in an equivalent manner, the treatment she receives definitely isn’t befitting of her station. So maybe it’s for men to determine who’s the baddest, right? To determine what female warrants what treatment.
Women deserve to put on a pedestal. I deserve to be put on a pedestal. Why? Not because of my looks or accomplishments but because my dad said so. It’s because I am a woman, and I deserve it. I received a firsthand account of how a woman should be treated. We are mothers, daughters, sisters. We birth your children; we rear your children; we’re the ones there to pick you up after life has knocked you down. Most importantly, it’s because I respect myself and I’ll respect you. Are some women bitches? Yes. However, that shouldn’t be how you view women but a reaction to her actions. And before you define one as such, maybe you should self-evaluate. Did she deny your advances and your ego is hurt?
I put myself on a pedestal. I define myself. I can take care of myself. Am I flawed? Definitely. I’m still young, still evolving. I’ll make dating mistakes along the way to that right guy. The fact remains that…I don’t need you, but I want you. I want you to be there for me. I want you to defend my honor. I want you to treat me as I deserve to be treated because I will return the same. So if I am sabotaging myself by demanding you approach me like a man, if you’re incapable of seeing my femininity beneath my strength, well…

On the “Swagger like us” version by Drake he mentions Clive Christian cologne.

Achieving Good Pussy How To Guide
Everybody wants good pussy. Men want to stick it, women want to get it. Women want good p*ssy so much that they are getting cosmetic surgery to achieve it their goal. ‘Operations to make the external appearance more “attractive” and reshaping the vagina to counter laxity after childbirth.’ I think that’s a bit extreme when all you have to do are a few simple exercises to get it tighter.
1. Start by locating your PC muscle.
2. Squeezing kegel exercises: start slow, find your baseline.
3. Squeezing kegel exercises: use sets of repetitions
Building up strength with kegel exercises.
4. Do your kegel exercises three or four times a day.
5. Vary the intensity and time in kegel exercises.
6. Using products for resistance kegel exercises. (Kegel Weighted Balls)
7. Do kegels while masturbating and having partner sex.
So, for all the ladies who want to know exactly what good vagina is (ask my girlfriend lol), I’m going to break it down for you.
Good P*ssy is visually pleasing, has a mouth watering aroma, and feels great. Some women know how to work it, but don’t have good p*ssy. So if you’ve been wondering what is good p*ssy, let me break it down for you.
Visually pleasing - Although we sometimes call sex bumping uglies there are a few vaginas that are down right beautiful. It’s so pretty, her lips are perfect, not too big not too small, and her clitoris sits on top of her vagina like the queen of Egypt on her throne. Some ladies know this and they are getting labioplasty to make their lips smaller in an effort to make it more attractive. A good looking vagina is Kodak picture perfect.
The Aroma - Good coochie does not smell like water, it has a scent so amazing that you want to wear it on your face. If your water smell like coochie then you need to call your water company. I wrote a smell guide you can read at the bottom of this blog, and it shouldn’t smell like flowers or fruit. I mean body sprays are cool and all but if you truly possess good vagina you don’t need anything to cover the smell of it. If any of you worked in a office before you know there are some funky women in the world. Stay fresh and you’re on your way to achieving good coochie.
It Feels Good - The best part of good p*ssy is that it feels absolutely amazing. As soon as you stick it in, you can feel the warmth of her insides, the wetness of her hole, and the walls tend to massage a man’s shaft. She doesn’t have to know how to work it, because it’s more about the feeling than what she can do with it. Now, most women get wet, but some get too wet and others don’t get wet enough. There is a preferred level of wetness. Now this has nothing to do making a woman squirt, that’s a whole other blog.
