California woman Sabrina Renne Robinson promises boyfriend kinky sex only to torture him for cheating on her


Like the old saying goes, “If it sounds to good be to be true…”

Boyfriend got a big surprise after he got handcuffed to the bed.

Daily Mail

A woman who promised her boyfriend a night of kinky sex has been jailed after handcuffing him to the bed and torturing him for cheating on her.

Sabrina Renne Robinson, from California, poured hot wax over his chest and threatened to 'gut him like a deer' as she sought revenge.

She also smashed him in the face with the butt of a shotgun and repeatedly threatened to kill him.

Police in California said the 33-year-old suspected her boyfriend had been seeing another woman.

She invited her boyfriend to her flat in Fresno, California, and according to police suggested they do 'something kinky'.

The 41-year-old man, who has not been named, stripped naked and allowed himself to be handcuffed to the bed.

But police said when the man was restrained Robinson suddenly turned violent.

Investigators say Robinson burned the man's chest with candle wax, punched his head and body, hit him with the barrel of a shotgun and threatened him with a knife.

While brandishing the knife, Robinson told him 'this is the same type of knife I skin deer with', according to Madera County Sheriff’s Department Eric Stuart.

Atty gen Holder comes to his sense and drops probe against Bush CIA officials over alleged torture


Now that the Obama administration has sucked up every bit of juice from getting Osama bin Laden to sleep with the fish, the least he could do was to stop harassing Bush CIA officials that got the actionable intelligence by using enhanced interrogation.

This investigation was never warranted in the in the first place and was only done to appease Obama’s kook Leftwing base.

I bet they’re crying in their wine glasses tonight on the Westside of New York!

National Journal

The Justice Department will end a wide-ranging probe into the CIA’s past interrogation, rendition, and detention activities, but it will launch a formal criminal investigation into agency officials involved in the deaths of two detainees, Attorney General Eric Holder announced on Thursday.

“The department has determined that an expanded criminal investigation of the remaining matters is not warranted,” Holder said in a statement.

Holder said he accepted the recommendation of longtime federal prosecutor John Durham to proceed with a criminal investigation into the deaths of the two detainees, adding that Durham’s team “reviewed a tremendous volume of information pertaining to the detainees” that included “both information and matters that had never previously been examined by the department.”

the attorney general tapped Durham in 2009 to review cases of alleged detainee mistreatment and death at the hands of CIA interrogators and contractors under the George W. Bush administration.

The probe has been hanging over the CIA, and Holder’s decision to end it was immediately welcomed by key officials.

Notably, Holder made his announcement only minutes before the Senate voted 94-0 to confirm Gen. David Petraeus as the next CIA director. The announcement was also made on the last day for current CIA Director Leon Panetta, who is heading to the Pentagon as the next Defense secretary.

“After extensive examination of more than 100 instances in which CIA had contact or was alleged to have had contact with terrorist detainees, [Durham] has determined that no further law enforcement action is appropriate in all but two discrete cases,” Panetta said in a message to CIA employees.

“No decision has been made to bring criminal charges,” added Panetta, who fiercely defended CIA agents during his tenure. “Both cases were previously reviewed by career federal prosecutors who subsequently declined prosecution. The agency will, of course, continue to cooperate fully in the remaining investigations.”

Mark Halperin suspended by MSNBC for being on point when he called Obama a “dick”


Story

Finally, somebody at the Obama-suck-up cable channel, aka MSNBC had a moment of clarity when reporter Mark Halperin correctly labeled President Obama as a “dick” after he heard the stream of misinformation and class warfare demagoguery coming from the president’s lips yesterday.

Hallelujah!

At least there’s somebody at MSNBC with enough integrity to tell it like it is when we have a president way over his head, unable to talk about his own record since coming to the White House, refusing to accept blame for his own mess, and desperately giving the American people false choices between choosing kids and corporate jets.

That was a shameful, disgusting, and unbecoming of a president performance by Obama yesterday and Halperin nailed him on it.

So now the drones at MSNBC are scrambling to right the ship and put it back on a brown-nosing path.

It won’t take them that long to get back on course.

Public sector employees at NY/NJ agency (Port Authority) paid $30K more than average pay of private sector workers


This is where your tax dollars are going.

The average salary for a worker at New York/New Jersey Port Authority, a bi-state agency that runs both New York city airports, the World Trade Center, the PATH Trains system, and the city’s Hudson River bridge and tunnel crossings, is a whopping $90,000 a year.

That’s a lot more than private sector workers in NYC who take in $60K on average.

Here’s the funny part, a PA spokesman said, “The PA has taken significant steps to control costs.”


New York Post

It pays to work for the Port Authority -- big time. The average salary at the bistate agency hit $90,000 last year -- more than $30,000 above the average salary for private-sector workers in the city -- according to a new analysis by the conservative think tank the Manhattan Institute.

The study found that average salaries at the PA rose about $1,000 over 2009, even as the agency is preparing to propose hiking bridge and tunnel tolls 25 percent next year, from $8 to $10.

"Is it bloat, or is it grounded in necessity? They need to show me," said City Council Minority Leader James Oddo (R-Staten Island). "If they have a good explanation for it, they better put it out there rather quickly."

According to the analysis, the highest-paid PA worker is executive director Christopher Ward, who earned $304,902. The agency's top attorney, Darrell Buchbinder, was No. 2, with $251,758.

The most eye-popping numbers were put up by PA cops, four of whom made the top 10 thanks to huge overtime pay.

Three police sergeants more than doubled their base salaries because of OT. And one of them, Sgt. Edwin Rivera -- No. 8 overall -- pulled down $132,286 on top of his base salary of $103,964 to make him the PA's OT champ for 2010.

Rivera declined to comment.

In a statement, the PA said it "has taken significant steps to control costs . . . the agency is now at its lowest staffing levels in 40 years and will continue its commitment to cutting costs."

The agency has a workforce of about 7,000 -- including a 1,500-member police department -- and operates the region's airports and seaports, the World Trade Center, the PATH train system, and the city's Hudson River bridge and tunnel crossings.

By comparison, the Empire Center said the average employee salary at the MTA in 2009 was dramatically lower, at $69,000.

"We think it's incredibly important that financial data, like the Port Authority's payroll, is available for analysis," the Empire Center said in a statement.

"It helps to paint the whole picture of where our tax dollars go and provides a canvas for taxpayers to make an informed decision about how they think their government is performing

End of story.


Good thing the PA has taken significant steps to keep salaried down. Otherwise these workers may be subject to Obama’s tax hikes for the rich.

Bachmann, too pretty to be a feminist, yet still mistreated by media because she’s a conservative woman


The first major decision Barack Obama ever made was to select Joe Biden as his vice president.

Did you stop laughing now?

It was an early indicator that Obama didn’t know what he was doing. And his time as president has confirmed it with miserable approval ratings.
If I listed all of Joe Biden’s gaffes in his nearly 30 year career as a politician, Google would shut down my blog for excessive memory use.

Yet, he gets to be a heartbeat away from the presidency and the Leftwing media glosses over his incompetence saying, “That’s just Joe!”

However, this past week the media has been all over Bachmann like starving mice looking for cheese trying to derail her presidential aspirations at any costs.


Although they won’t admit it, I think it’s because she’s an attractive married conservative woman that makes most troll-like feminists look worse.

Let’s face it. Feminism has always been a pathway for the “truly ugly”, “not so pretty”, “plain”, and “she’s got a great personality” among us a seat at the table.

That’s why the long knives are out for Bachmann.


The Daily Beast

No girl-power rhetoric here: Michele Bachmann tells Kirsten Powers she’s just an “empowered American” who takes media indignities foreign to the average male pol in stride.

Bachmann seemed loath to engage in the kind of girl-power rhetoric utilized by Palin and Hillary Clinton, who both invoked the perennial—and so far unbreakable—presidential glass ceiling.

Said Bachmann: “I’m a woman comfortable in her own skin. I grew up with three brothers. My parents didn’t see us [as] limited [by gender]. I would mow the lawn and take out the trash; I was making my own fishing lures. I went along with everything the boys did.”

Bachmann is still doing everything the boys do, but as a female candidate she endures indignities that are foreign to your average male pol. Yet she takes it all in stride.

In a joint interview with Bachmann last year, then-Sen. Arlen Specter lectured her to “act like a [lady]” when she strenuously disagreed with him on a point. A recent Rolling Stone diatribe by Matt Taibbi called her “completely batshit crazy” with a “retro-Stepford image.” MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has accused her of being “hypnotized” on the air and has referred to the three-term House member and former tax attorney as a “balloon head.”

True, the media have a field day playing up her every misstep—most recently her assertion that the Founding Fathers “worked tirelessly” to end slavery—but we should know by now what that is about. (Hint: She’s a woman with presidential aspirations.) If Joe Biden’s gaffes had received half the attention of Bachmann’s, nobody would take him seriously, either.

6th circuit court upholds ObamaCare, thanks to G.W. Bush appointee Jeffrey S. Sutton


Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton wrote, “In my opinion, the government has the better of the arguments.” He added, “Not every intrusive law is an unconstitutionally intrusive law.”

What?

How does that make sense? I wish Judge Sutton, who’s obviously a Lindsey Graham-type Republican, that is to say a RINO, had given an example of what the heck he was talking about.
I’m not a lawyer, but I still don’t understand under the concept of Federalism how the federal government can usurp the power of states and force people in all 50 to buy health insurance. That’s unconstitutional on its face. With that logic, the fed govt cam makes people do, or not do anything.

Bye bye, freedom.

Hello United Soviet States!

And the America we used to know is gone forever.

New York Times

The Obama administration on Wednesday prevailed in the first appellate review of the 2010 health care law as a three-judge panel from the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit held that it was constitutional for Congress to require that Americans buy health insurance.

The ruling by the Cincinnati court is the first of three opinions to be delivered by separate courts of appeal that heard arguments in the health care litigation in May and June. Opinions are expected soon from panels in both the Fourth Circuit in Richmond, Va., and the Eleventh Circuit in Atlanta.

Lawyers on both sides of the case widely expect the Supreme Court to take one or more of the cases, perhaps as soon as its coming term, which starts in October. The speed of the Sixth Circuit ruling could help ensure that timing.

The opinion was the first to not break down strictly along seemingly partisan lines. In the 2-to-1 ruling, a judge appointed by a Republican president joined one named by a Democrat to write the majority opinion.

In various cases at the lower District Court level, five judges have divided on the question, with three Democratic appointees backing the law and two Republican appointees rejecting it.

As they look ahead to the Supreme Court, the law’s defenders can take encouragement from the concurring opinion written by Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton, an appointee of President George W. Bush, a Republican. Judge Sutton is typically considered conservative on questions of constitutional reach.

After acknowledging the difficulty of pinpointing the limits on Congress’s power to regulate interstate commerce, Judge Sutton wrote, “In my opinion, the government has the better of the arguments.” He added, “Not every intrusive law is an unconstitutionally intrusive law.”

Joining Judge Sutton was Judge Boyce F. Martin Jr., an appointee of President Jimmy Carter, a Democrat. Dissenting on the central issues was Judge James L. Graham, a District Court judge appointed by President Ronald Reagan who is on temporary assignment to the Sixth Circuit.

The appeal, which was heard by the panel on June 1, came in a challenge filed by the Thomas More Law Center, a conservative public interest firm in Ann Arbor, Mich. In its 69-page ruling, the panel upheld Judge George C. Steeh of Federal District Court in Detroit, who concluded that choosing not to buy health insurance was a consequential commercial decision that could be regulated by Congress under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution.

I think Sutton’s life is about to become miserable.

Another ethically challenged Dem Rep. Laura Richardson may have some ‘splaining to do to the FBI


Whatever happened to Nancy Pelosi’s promise to drain the swamp of corruption in Washington?

Dem Rep Charlie Rangel-certified tax-cheat who was in charge of writing tax law for the rest of us.

Dem Rep Anthony Weiner-certified freakaziod who spent more of his time sexting woman other than his pregnant wife than he did work for his constituents.

And here come Dem Rep Laura Richardson with her own alleged kind of misconduct.

The Hill

A leading watchdog group is touting new evidence of alleged ethics violations by Rep. Laura Richardson (D-Calif.) and calling for a criminal investigation.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is accusing Richardson of habitually threatening her congressional staff with their jobs if they didn’t work on her campaign, and has asked the FBI to investigate.

“Rep. Richardson presented staffers with an odious choice: work on her campaign, or lose their jobs,” Melanie Sloan, CREW’s executive director, said in a statement. “Astonishingly, in just three short terms, Rep. Richardson has been the subject of at least two ethics investigations. Now a criminal investigation should be added to the list.”

CREW says it also has evidence that Richardson’s staffers were asked to make political contributions and run personal errands on behalf of the three-term lawmaker — a breach of federal laws barring congressional office funds from being used for unofficial purposes.

Richardson’s office fiercely denied the charges, characterizing the claims as old news.

“The allegations in today’s letter released by CREW are not new, and they are based on media accounts, information and claims reported publicly months ago,” spokesman Ray Zaccaro said in an email Tuesday.

In November, the Ethics panel interviewed Richardson’s staff about the allegations of campaign activity, but the status of that investigation is unknown. The Ethics Committee did not respond to a request for comment.

The FBI likewise declined to comment.

Glenn Beck and family can’t watch a movie in Bryant Park without being harassed by idiot Liberals


In the below video Glenn Beck tells of his ordeal he and his family suffered when trying to watch a movie at Bryant Park.

As a lifelong New Yorker, I know all too well how immature New York Liberals can act. If there were a Nobel Prize for the most nonsensical Liberal, I guarantee you a New Yorker would win it every year.

It’s funny how the very people who consider themselves the most sophisticated in the country, routinely act like the worst louts whenever they confront a conservative that can easily beat them in a debate.

We conservatives know it, and they know it, which is why they revert to insults, name calling, yelling racism, yada, yada yada.

But, not all New York Liberals are like that. Still, Beck and his family didn’t deserve what they got.

Latina beauty Elen Rivas poses nude in ad against bullfighting


The wimpification of the world continues….as PETA is at it again selling sex to make a point.

As a person of Latino heritage, I have nothing against the macho-art of bullfighting. It’s man against beast in a test of courage and skill. These are attributes to be admired and taught to boys and girls with nerve enough to enter the bullfighting ring.

But, PETA a group of guilt ridden navel contemplating sissies, who care more for animals than they do people.

The Sun

SPANISH beauty Elen Rivas poses naked and bleeding in a hard-hitting campaign against bullfighting.

The ex-fiancée of England footie ace Frank Lampard appears with four spears in her back in the controversial ad by animal rights group PETA.

Campaigners hope the ad will persuade British tourists not to see a bullfight while on holiday in Spain, where the sport is still widespread.

Model Elen, 36, who recently dated singer Peter Andre, said: "My ad might be graphic, but it's nothing compared to the bloody, violent reality of bullfights.

"Most Spaniards are opposed to this barbaric blood sport, and PETA and I are urging tourists not to be fooled by the industry's propaganda.

"There is absolutely nothing romantic about torturing and killing animals for entertainment."

The ad is set to stir up a new debate on bullfighting in Spain.

Do American High Schoolers even know who John Quincy Adams is? Good bet they don’t

Here we go again with the never ending game of “gotcha” by the Leftwing blogasphere. Yesterday it was John Wayne, Waterloo, serial killers, and Michele Bachmann’s faulty memory.

If Barack Obama received the same kind of vicious, petty, childish, nonsensical and totally biased treatment the Leftwing media has bombarded Sarah Palin and now Michele Bachmann with for only one 24 hour news cycle, he’d still be a U.S. Senator today.

That’s how life is for conservatives!

State run media will go to any length and sink as low as they have to, to try and marginalize any conservative. And the ones who receive the biggest barrage of smears and hit pieces in print, TV and the internet are the candidates the Left fears the most.

But, despite the unfair treatment, Michele Bachmann political star is quickly rising.

Gallup

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, who formally announced her presidential candidacy Monday in her hometown of Waterloo, Iowa, enters the race with 69% name recognition among Republicans and ties for the highest Positive Intensity Score of any GOP candidate Gallup tracks.

Bachmann finds herself in a relatively positive position among Republicans as she begins her formal campaign. Her name recognition is up to 69% for the two-week period of June 13-26, having climbed from 52% in late February/early March. This places her fifth among the most well-known Republicans Gallup measures, behind Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney, and Ron Paul, but well ahead of Tim Pawlenty, Jon Huntsman, and several other competitors. Bachmann's Positive Intensity Score of 24 ties with Herman Cain's as the highest such score of any candidate, and is her highest to date. Bachmann's ability to maintain her relatively high Positive Intensity Score as she has become better known distinguishes her from several of her competitors.

I'm totally obsessed with randomness and my obsession with meeting new individuals with talent  randomly on a daily basis brought me over to meet Re'Nauta Bell. You won't believe what this young lady can do. Now get ready and take a glimpse before going on this amazing ride!


SMUDGED by R. Bell (Bad Girl) from R. Bell on Vimeo.


1. Where are you located at? Have you traveled outside of the state to work, like for example, to Los Angeles, CA? Tell us about it! If not, would you do it you were given the opportunity to do so? How much time would you need in advance to make personal arrangements and what would be your requirements when it comes to out of state projects?
I’m physically located in Atlanta, GA, but my mind is usually hovering over any place tropical.  I have yet to make any major travel arrangements to work outside of Atlanta but, if given the opportunity, I’d be all over it.  Being that I’m a wife and mom of two youngin’s, I’d probably need about a week to get them situated.  If it was just me to worry about, you could call me in the morning and I’d be on a flight that evening to wherever you need me to be.

2. So your work is distinguished mostly by the extreme application of colors (As far as the amount of makeup that will be applied), is that right? Now I noticed also that you love to use really bright, multi colors. Is this what you mostly work with when given the chance to freestyle?
I definitely do love using bright and bold colors in unusual ways.  I’m an artist in many facets of the word and I love everything abstract so the face is just another canvas really.  Actually, when I freestyle, often times, I may do bold colors but I generally apply the makeup in a more typical fashion.  When I do my crazy stuff, I’ve thought about it for a while.  I’ll usually be sleeping then bolt upright in bed because I’ve just had that “Aha!” moment and then I know what kind of lunacy I’ll be bringing to the shoot.  The idea is usually pretty loose and, well, abstract but I kind of know what direction I want to go in from that point.  Now, once I have all my supplies and I’m at the shoot, I do kind of freestyle from that point.  I never really know how I’m going to apply everything or how it will look in the end but that’s the fun part!


3. I read on your portal that going shopping for materials that you will be using for a project can be quite an experience! Tell us a little bit more about it! Do you get special instructions sometimes? How easy or difficult it is actually for you when it comes to choosing certain makeup items that actually possess different types of textures? What do you think are the best makeup brands out there?
When I go shopping I think the hardest thing for me is figuring out which store to go to.  Once I’m there, I’m golden. I never really know what I’m going to buy so I simply peruse the entire store until I find things that may make my concept work.  I can easily have anything from chalk to blocks of foam in my cart and it will all be for the one shoot.  Sometimes my clients will give me instructions but not often.  If they do, it’s because they want “regular” makeup.  Otherwise, they let me go wild and do my thing.  Sometimes it can be difficult selecting makeup items with different textures because I don’t know how they will adhere or apply to the face.  Nevertheless, I’ll always take a chance and try out something new.  If it doesn’t work it doesn’t work and I’ll go in another direction.  I always carry a bag of goodies with me in the event that I need a backup plan.  You know, it would be typical for me to say MAC is one of the best but their eye pigments and lip glass really are bad ass.  I also like Laura Mercier bronzer…it’s to die for and works pretty much on every skin type!



4. I noticed that in one of your latest works you used a lot of glitter, which adds up to my theory that you definitely love to accentuate your models' cheekbones. Any reason for that? How do you think that accentuating a model's cheek bones adds more to her beauty?
OMG I am a huge fan of cheek bones... especially the high ones. Cheek bones are one the most underused and under-accentuated yet most beautiful parts of a woman’s face.  Cheek bones give a woman her character and, depending on the angle you are looking at her, can totally change the way she looks.  People forget about the cheek bones but they can offer mystique, personality, and sometimes the hint of a secret and that can be very appealing to those who are attracted to the lady.  Forgetting about the cheek bones is kind of like wearing your best dress but not getting your hair done.  It’s a big old fail.  DON’T FORGET THE CHEEK BONES!


5. What are some of the most memorable experiences you have ever lived working as a makeup artist? Have you had the chance to for public figures?
The best thing about doing what I do is meeting people. I have met some of the coolest folks in the entire world and I can call a lot of them my friends.  Most of the people I work with are artistic and open-minded and are the kind of people I can call in the middle of the night if I have an emergency.  I never thought in a million years that I could meet so many awesome people while I’m working but I have.  Sometimes we fight and get mad at each other but it’s always in an effort to achieve a great end result so everyone gets over it,  we make it happen, then we are friends again. I’ve made some great friends working but I’ve also pissed some people off and all of those experiences and shoots are memorable.   

Each shoot is my baby and I absolutely love what I do. I have had the chance to work with a couple of public figures. The best way to put this would be to say that some celebrities are awesome to work with and others really just plain old suck.  I’m really not the kind of person to bite my tongue but sometimes I’ve had to.  I guess that’s just part of the game but I always feel like I’m literally going to explode when I’m working with someone who is just being difficult. At the end of those kinds of gigs, the first thing I do when I get to my car is scream so I can release. I refuse to take that kind of drama home. Then I head to the store to pick up some wine lol.

6. What celebrities you think have the coolest and most talented makeup artists?
It would be pretty cliché for me to say Lady Gaga’s MUA is the coolest and most talented so I won’t.  Billy B knows his worth.  Honestly, there were three celebrities who immediately came to mind and the first was Mr. Jay Manuel from America's Next Top Model.  His makeup always looks so flawless and fres h.  I love it!  It looks amazing next to his perfectly frosted and coiffed “do”.  I’m also a fan of Tyra Banks’ makeup.  Her MUA really knows how accentuate her best feature.  Her eyes always make my jaw drop.  Last but not least, I’d have to say that I love, love, love Scarlett Johansen when she is on the red carpet.  I love her classic look and her MUA gets it on point every time.  She definitely knows how to wear a red lip the right way.

What do you think about the Hugh Hefner new girlfriends 2011?

Obama the law breaker, again?


Did President Obama break the law by filming campaigne ad in the White House?

Story



We already know he doesn’t enforce laws on the books like the Defense of Marriage Act, or wantonly defies court orders to not implement ObamaCare and continuing a moratorium on oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. And how about violating the Wars Powers Act by going into Libya without congressional approaval?

Obama has demonstrated a willingness to be a lawless president. Is this more of the same?

NAACP honcho Karen Boykin-Towns sends her kid to posh boarding school as she files suit to deny low-income Black children entry into Charter schools


This story will definitely fall through the cracks as to the national attention it deserves. The NAACP, the once vital organization who fought for the advancement of African Americans, has sadly morphed into apparatchiks of the Democrat Party.

Instead of fighting for better education for low-income Blacks, the NAACP sides with Teacher’s unions to crush the Charter school movement that out performs traditional failing public schools.

It’s a money thing, you see!

Charter schools employ teachers that are non-union. And the United Federation of Teachers hates that because they can’t collect union dues to give to Democrat politicians.

But, to add insult to insanity, a NAACP bigwig sends her daughter to an exclusive New England boarding school. She ain’t sending her kid to a failing school. But, let the poor Black folks be doomed to an inferior school system.

New York Post

A prominent NAACP leader is sending her child to a posh New England boarding school at the same time the civil-rights group is suing to block low-income parents from educating their kids in charter schools, The Post has learned.

Karen Boykin-Towns, who heads the group's Brooklyn branch and serves on its national board, enrolls her daughter, Jasmine, at the bucolic, 80-acre Brewster Academy in New Hampshire, which charges up to $45,000 in annual tuition.

Her husband is Darryl Towns, the state housing commissioner and former Brooklyn state assemblyman who voted to increase the cap on charter schools last year.


Her father-in-law is veteran Brooklyn Congressman Ed Towns.

"We know you are selective about your future . . . We're equally selective at Brewster. We want only the very best students," the school says in its brochure.

Students there study with Apple laptops and play Frisbee on the shoreline of majestic Lake Winnipesaukee, which abuts the campus.

Boykin-Towns defended the boarding-school enrollment of her daughter in light of the NAACP suit.

"I'd simply say that as a parent, the most important job you have is to provide the best opportunities possible for your children's education and success," Boykin-Towns said in an e-mail response to The Post.
