If you’ve been wondering why any of the women claiming to have been sexually assaulted by Bill Cosby has not sued him yet, let me tell you that they cannot really sue him—because of something called statute of limitation which bars them.
However, one of the accusers- retired attorney Tamara Green has just sued Bill Cosby…but for lying.
According to Tamara, while on a lunch date at some point during the early ’70s, the Bill Cosby allegedly drugged her and allegedly groped her back in her apartment.
Bill Cosby through his publicist has denied the above allegation—and this is where Tamara is suing him for defamation.
According to the defamation lawsuit filed against Bill in Massachusetts, Tamara claims the denials coming from Bill’s publicist have marked her a liar, and that as a result of this, she’s been privately and professionally ridiculed—amounting to defamation.
Duchess Kate Middleton is trending on the fashion blogs once again—for recycling Jenny Packham dress.
Pregnant Kate, wore the Jenny Packham dress at a fundraiser back in February (left), and she wore the same Jenny Packham last night to the St. Andrews University 600th anniversary dinner in NYC (right)—and people are talking.
According to E!, she has not wore the dress just twice; she even wore it 14 months ago, meaning she has wore the same dress 3 times…
We know it’s a Jenny Packham dress, however wearing it 3 times to 3 very important event by not just anyone from the castle but the Duchess of Cambridge is a big NO…
2014 has been a year of many eventualities, with the continued increase in social media use marking our move further into the 21st century.
No social network brings the world together like Facebook, thus it is a good way to gauge the aggregate feeling of the world at large.
The technicians at Facebook analysed the activities of users to determine the most talked about issues of the year, and the results show the most popular topics of the year; helpfully grouped into categories.
We surely did not need the National Secretariat of the Domestic Violence and Victims’ Support Unit (DOVSU) to tell us that, there have been increase in reckless abuse of people in Ghana, done in the name of Religion—because we are all witness to the healing ways of charlatans like Bishop Obinim who can freely step on the stomach of a pregnant woman.
At a recent workshop in Accra, administrator at the National Secretariat of DOVVSU, ASP Lydia Osei Agyemang noted that some churches and prayer camps in the country perpetuated sexual and physical abuse against congregants especially women and children under the guise of religious healing and deliverance.
According to her, some spiritual leaders harassed, humiliated and inflicted physical pain on congregants under the pretext of exorcising them. She said the practice had existed for several years however had been on the increase in recent times with most of them being broadcasted on TV.
Actress Juliet Ibrahim is in a promo mood—promoting her recently released second-self produced movie, Shattered Romance. And for the needed attention, she has put on blast the perfect spot to write #selfie. I bet only the smart men will understand me.
For Naa Ashorkor Mensah-Doku, the right photo below tells the hidden story. Considering the fact that it is not cold in Ghana, the only situation we can think of now is that; that spot must be a little thick and the husband must be a happy man.
Relationships are full of drama and sometimes cheating—and an American football fan became a mini God at a recent football match by doing what some say was ‘right’ and others say was ‘wrong’.
According a man called ‘Lye’, he sat near a couple he didn’t know at a Detroit Lions football game, and repeatedly saw the woman (about 8 months pregnant) texting another man which she called Jason in text. Just beside her partner, this woman told the other man on the phone that, she wishes she was with him instead and once she is done, she will see him soon.
Lye claims that anytime the woman’s partner ( the man she was seated near her) tried to put his hands over her neck, reach out to her or have a conversation, she will quickly hide the phone—and sometimes she would tilt the screen away from her man towards him so he saw all the messages.
As a man, he was a little upset and together with the fact that the woman disrespected her partner in front of others made him feel sorry for the man so before the football game ended, he got up and got a pen to write the above note for the man. He asked the man to read when he arrives at home.
The arguments that weed (cannabis) is not bad and has enormous health benefits is true—and I am yet to meet anyone who would bother to rebut this. Similarly, I know of a friend whose first attempt at the weed smoking ‘enterprise’ caused his education and even up to date, you can deduct from whatever conversation you hold with him that; the dude is not normal…
There are tons of long-term and short term negative effects associated with the smoking of weed; including, Suppression of the immune system Reduced resistance to common illnesses (colds, bronchitis, etc.), Growth disorders, Increase of abnormally structured cells in the body, Reduction of male sex hormones, Rapid destruction of lung fibers and lesions (injuries) to the brain could be permanent, Reduced sexual capacity, Study difficulties: reduced ability to learn and retain information, Apathy, drowsiness, lack of motivation, Personality and mood changes as well as Inability to understand things clearly.
For many countries in the world including Ghana, Cannabis remains a controlled substance (a narcotic drug) on their statute books for the above reasons—and the many other unmentioned reasons associated with the ‘international herb’.
The punishment for smoking, trafficking or possession of weed varies based on jurisdiction and even though many are calling for the up to 10years sentence in Ghana to be reduced or abolished, it’s worth noting that you can face the death penalty in some other countries when it comes to weed related offences.
Just last month, it emerged that Ghana ranks first as the country with most weed smokers in Africa—and third in the world. This is alarming to some of us and taking a walk to our beaches at night will confirm this; mostly smoked by those with little or no education or any sense of real purpose in life.
For all these years we’ve been naïve and have struggled to define what Deborah Vanessa really does—calling her the mistress of all trades; music, videos, movies, TV, and mostly NOTHING.
What we did not know is that; she has some adult modelling side—sort of, and the above photo a reader sent us may be one of the many.
No amount of restitution can make up for the wrong done Kwame Ajamu, his reputation and more importantly, his entire life.
After serving almost 30 years in prison for murder, a crime he denied; a US court on Tuesday cleared all charges against Kwame Ajamu, now 57 and out on parole since 2003.
The Court room was full of the expression of emotions with Ajamu saying “ I’m so happy today that this battle had come to an end.” Cuyahoga County Judge Pamela Barker also stepped down from her bench to give Ajamu a hug, the Associated Press reports.
In 1975, two people attacked Harold Franks with acid, and one of the people shot him. A third person drove a getaway car. A 12-year-old boy, Eddie Vernon, served as the state’s main witness in the case, and a jury convicted Bridgeman (as he was known at the time), along with his brother Wiley Bridgeman, then 20, and Ricky Jackson, 19.
The above three people received death sentences, but their sentences were later commuted. Kwame Ajamu was released on parole in 2003 after serving 27 years.
It seems this case is not going to bed anytime as the Prosecution have began their case to push for a harsher sentence for ‘The Blade Runner’ Oscar Pistorius.
Pistorius was sentenced to five years in prison after being convicted of culpable homicide rather than the higher murder charge; in the case of the Valentine Day’s shooting of his then girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
Judge Thokozile Masipa, who heard the original trial is also the one presiding the appeal hearing; pursuant to South African law where the original judge has to rule on the merits or otherwise of the appeal.
Kwabena Kwabena has released a new video for his song-Kyere Wo Do featuring Joojo—and Ama K. Abebrese, Adjetey Anang & others make a cameo appearance, helping tell the song’s story…
The song is a good one; and the fact that Adjetey Anang together with Ama K. Abebrese are in there helping tell the background story makes the video a must watch.
