“They Are All Dead Today – For A Cause”

The ReadyWriter

Singer and new mom Alicia keys joined a host of celebrities who are helping to raise money for AIDS research by suffering a ‘digital death’ which involves them logging off their Twitter, Facebook and other social networking sites for 24 hours today (Wednesday, Dec. 1).

Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Usher, Kim Kardashian, P. Diddy, Jennifer Hudson, Ryan Seacrest, Elijah Wood, Serena Williams, Jay Sean, Swizz Beatz and more, make beautiful corpses while lying in their coffins in a series of ghastly portraits released by the Worlds AIDS organization.

In my opinion, I think it’s too much!

The stars logged offline on Tuesday, Nov. 30, and will not sign back on until $1 million has been raised for Alicia Keys’ Keep A Child Alive foundation.

“Bishop Long Not Settling/Trial Goes To Court”

The ReadyWriter

“We were in court last week, discovery is happening right now. We’re setting up deposition dates, so the litigation is proceeding along,” said BJ Bernstein.

Bernstein is the lawyer representing four young men, who filed lawsuits against Bishop Eddie Long, and told Channel 2 Action News the lawsuits are moving forward, and she will soon begin taking depositions.

“We’re talking about getting forward and going through with the case and planning for deadlines set by the judge” Bernstein added.

Bernstein would not comment on any other pending lawsuits, or additional victims.

Anthony Flagg, Jamal Parris, Maurice Robinson and Spencer LeGrande filed civil suits against Long, accusing him of using his spiritual authority to coerce the young men into sexual relationships.

Long has since denied the claims in court documents, but admitted serving as a mentor to the men.

“Is Old-Fashion Phased Out People?”

The ReadyWriter

Good day, CEO Readers!!

Again, I oppose the question, has old fashion played out along with answering machines, rotary dialing and busy signals?  It goes without saying that this translates to romance, dating and marriage too!

Can two people come together and find a happy and peaceful medium between the new and the old?

In a conversation I had the other evening with my crony, he said, “women of this generation don’t do what they used to do back in the day and my oh my how times have changed!”

The conversation came about as we were listening to the lyrics of a favorite Whitney Houston song of mine: “Things just ain’t the way that they used to be · Back in the day when a man meant security · He’d be working hard all week, baby kick back and throw up your feet, let me fix you a treat, so it might be love and sweet”

The song talks about “old school love” when he ran down how the ladies today are not old school anymore.

He said: 

  • Women don’t cook,
  • They don’t behave like ladies,
  • They don’t give you anything to look forward to. (meaning they give-up the goods too quick)
  • They don’t care for and/or about their man
  • They don’t trust men
  • And they don’t take off their man’s shoes anymore (The one thing his mother always did for his father). I died laughing at that one.

What are your thoughts? My CEO ladies, in particular! Do you find this to be true or a little embellished?

In the meantime, here’s the song for your listening pleasure. 🙂

“Baby Born With Massive Head Swelling”

The ReadyWriter

Neurosurgeons at a hospital in San Antonio, Texas are fighting to save the life of an 11-month old baby, born with a rare condition that has caused his head to swell more than twice the normal size.

“Baby Klaus,” as his parents and local media are calling him, was born with hydrocephalus, a build-up of excess fluid in the brain that has caused his head to swell to more than 130% larger than a typical newborn’s head.

After several doctors near their home in west Texas refused to operate or told them that their baby would die soon, the stricken baby’s parents, who identified themselves as Klaus Sr. and Beatrice, found a hopeful savior in Dr. David Jimenez, the chairmen of the department of neurosurgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio.

Jimenez and his staff inserted a tube in the baby’s head to drain the fluid and relieve the pressure, and the child’s head is already about a foot smaller than it was when his parents brought him in about two weeks ago, San Antonio’s KENS5-TV reported.

Still, doctors and hydrocephalus experts said Baby Klaus’s had a particular severe case and that progress would be slow.

Known to doctors as “water on the brain,” hydrocephalus occurs in about 1 out of 500 babies born and can cause brain damage, if left untreated, the condition can be fatal.

“Alicia Keys Boycotts Facebook & Twitter”

The ReadyWriter

For a greater good!

Celebrities have joined a new campaign called Digital Life Sacrifice on behalf of Alicia Keys’ charity, Keep a Child Alive.

The entertainers plan to sign off of social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter on Wednesday, which is World AIDS Day. The participants will sign back on when the charity raises $1 million.

“It’s really important and super-cool to use mediums that we naturally are on,” Keys said in a phone interview from New York last week.

For the campaign – which also includes Jennifer Hudson, Ryan Seacrest, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Elijah Wood, Serena Williams, Janelle Monae and Keys’ husband, Swizz Beatz – celebrities have filmed “last tweet and testament” videos and will appear in ads showing them lying in coffins to represent what the campaign calls their digital deaths.

“It’s so important to shock you to the point of waking up,” Keys said. “It’s not that people don’t care or it’s not that people don’t want to do something, it’s that they never thought of it quite like that.”

Keys who has 2.6 million followers on twitter said, the foundation, which began in 2003, will accept donations through text messages and bar-code technology, which is featured in the charity’s Buy Life campaign and will raise efforts to support families affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India.

Of course media whore, Kootie/Kim Kardasian (pictured below) is the first to leak her ad for the cause.
