Steve Harvey is Back "Straight Talk, No Chaser"

In the instant number one New York Times bestseller Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, Steve Harvey gave millions of women around the globe insight into what men really think about love, intimacy, and commitment. In his new book he zeros in on what motivates men and provides tips on how women can use that knowledge to get more of what they need out of their relationships, whether it's more help around the house, more of the right kind of attention in the bedroom, more money in the joint bank account, or more truth when it comes to the hard questions, such as: Are you committed to building a future together? Does my success intimidate you? Have you cheated on me? In Straight Talk, No Chaser: How to Find, Keep, and Understand a Man, Steve Harvey shares information on: How to Get the Truth Out of Your Man Tired of answers that are deceptive? Harvey lays out a three-tier, CIA-style of questioning that will leave your man no choice but to cut to the chase and deliver the truth. Dat

R.I.P. Prince Hall 1735-1807

Prince Hall, one of Boston's most prominent citizens during the revolutionary period, was the founder of the African Lodge of the Honorable Society of Free and Accepted Masons of Boston, the world's first lodge of black Freemasonry and the first society in American history devoted to social, political, and economic improvement. Not much is known of Hall's life before the Revolution. He was born in 1735 and was the slave of William Hall of Boston. His son, Primus, was born in 1756 to Delia, a servant in another household. In 1762, at the age of 27, Hall joined the Congregational Church, and soon after, married an enslaved woman named Sarah Ritchie. Eight years later, after Sarah's death, he married Flora Gibbs of Gloucester. A month after the Boston Massacre, William Hall freed Prince; his certificate of manumission read that he was "no longer Reckoned a slave, but [had] always accounted as a free man." Hall made his living as a huckster (peddler), catere

KING JAMES REIGNED VICTORIOUS OVER CAVALIERS

Cavaliers fans packed the Quicken Loans Arena last night to witness what they thought would be a slaughter for the Heat. Signs reading "I hate LeBron James," with t-shirt quotes like "The Lyin' King" or "Judas & Brutus & Benedict & LeBron," filled the arena. Hostility was high in the building last night. Despite LeBron James' unwelcomed return to Cleveland, he came out on top! With his mind-blowing 38 points, the Heat soared to a 118-90 win over the Cavaliers. James overcame adversity and reigned supreme on the court. Though Cleveland went through great lengths to display their hatred towards James, he told journalists he had nothing but the utmost respect for the city and its fans. You can get stats, more interviews, articles and catch highlights of Miami's win over Cleveland at http://espn.go.com/nba/ .

KHIA FIRES SHOTS AT NICKI MINAJ

Female Rapper Khia does a review on the "Pink Friday" album and calls it TRASH! Right before the review, Khia wanted to make it clear that she was not "HATING" on Nicki Minaj, but she was rather unhappy with the album itself. After reading her blog, it was clear that this was more than an album review, but it was personal.  Here is a just a small portion of what Khia wrote:  "Shout out to the stylists and photographers who done a spectacular job, airbrushing and styling this “Dungeon Dragon” because we all know that this “Lint-Lizard” doesn’t look like this in person…. It’s AMAZING what a little make-up and camera angles can do!" http://motormouf.com/ is where Khia's PINK FRIDAY album review can be read
