Rihanna Breaks Her Silence

I post this and I will post the rest of the interview after it airs, not because it's Rihanna and she's a celebtrity, but because the overall issue of domestic violence is one that needs to be analyzed and truly discussed in all communities. There are too many young women being silently abused by their partners, who will not stand up, for a myriad of understandable reasons, and share their pain and story with others. I can only imagine what a horrific experience it was for Rihanna and it is for so many women. I commend those who are strong enough to reveal their story in hopes that it will help put an end to such a common and torturous act...

Have a look...

Sesame Street: The New Deal

For old times sake...





This article was interesting. I touched on the ways Sesmate Street has changed in order to cater to the new character of American children...

"In the early days of "Sesame Street" -- that is, B.E. (Before Elmo) -- Sesame Street was a pretty grimy place. The brownstone at 123 Sesame Street looked like it needed a serious power washing, the storefront of Mr. Hooper's shop was intentionally dingy and the Fix-It Shop's window was cluttered with toasters. It was gritty, but gritty in a magical way." ~ CNN

Rihanna Speaks...

I post this, because I was speaking with a young lady friend of mine the other day and I asked her if she thought Rihanna would ever come out and speak about "The Incident." She said, "No."

Well...



I say, "Yes." lol

Jay-Z in Gotham Magazine



"I don't dislike anything about myself," he says. "I know this sounds a little arrogant but I really accept what God has given me. I've got a short temper but I work on controlling it. I can say inappropriate things because I believe them to be true and sometimes that can be hurtful to others. But I think in the long run it is more helpful." ~ Gotham Magazine
