The Knicks were in the middle of losing their 14th straight game against Houston, so maybe the boyfriend was not in the mood for a kiss. She wasn’t having it though, as she turned to the next guy and locked lips.

It ain’t goin’ stop ’till somebody gets hurt… again!
George Zimmerman was arrested late Friday for aggravated assault in a domestic violence case, according to Florida’s Seminole County Sheriff’s Office.
Then 31-year-old was detained at 10 p.m in Lake Mary, near Orlando, and has been denied bail, according his booking record. He is due to appear in court at 9 a.m. Saturday.
“Zimmerman was charged with aggravated assault and is currently on a no bond status,” the Sheriff’s Office said. “The next step in the process is first appearance. At this time, the judge may address bond status.”
Zimmerman was acquitted by a Florida jury in 2013 of second-degree murder in connection with the killing of Trayvon Martin.
“She was doing what she felt was right and to defend herself at that time,” said Detective Antoine Kincade, a spokesman with the Fayetteville Police Department. The husband thought he was doing something good by returning home early to surprise his wife with breakfast in bed.
But there was another surprise waiting for him.
The shooting happened around 10:15 a.m. in the 1100 block of Christina Street.
Fayetteville Police say Zia Segule, 28, left for work. His wife, 27-year-old Tiffany Segule, set the home alarm system. Zia Segule returned to the home unannounced to surprise his wife with breakfast. The alarm sounded and Tiffany Segule, who had gotten back in the bed, shot her husband in the chest through their closed bedroom door. Police said her husband had entered through the front door, but it’s unclear whether he ever announced himself or tried to turn off the alarm.
Zia Segule was able to walk and talk following the shooting, said police. He has been released from Cape Fear Valley Medical Center. He declined to speak in detail with media when he returned home early Friday afternoon, but said “I’m good.”
Tiffany Segule was taken to the Fayetteville Police Department for questioning. Police said she may have been on edge due to recent break-ins in the area. Four home break-ins and four vehicle break-ins have been reported in the neighborhood since January 1, 2014. However, neighbors said Friday that there have been far more attempts.

Hey, Mitch McConnell went on the Senate floor and lied to the world that he and the Republicans are responsible for the economic growth. Yes, he was lying, but he is a Republican so lying is expected.
But if Mitch can lie about something he did not do, why can’t one of the people responsible for the economic recovery speak up and acknowledged that positive growth?
President Obama has been doing just that and now Nancy Pelosi is doing the same.
After the report today that the unemployment rate fell to 5.6 percent, Pelosi issues this statement.
“Last month, our economy added another exclamation point to the longest uninterrupted period of private sector job creation in our history: 58 months, 11.2 million jobs. In 2014, we created nearly 3 million new jobs, more than in any year since 1999. For all our progress, however, too many Americans are still out of work and too many middle class families still feel squeezed. It is clear the 114th Congress must act to create jobs and expand the opportunities of working people and middle class families.
“On the first day of this Congress, Democrats put forward a legislative package to increase paychecks for working families and put Americans back to workbuilding the roads and bridges our country needs – paid for by keeping our tax dollars here at home. The CEO/Employee Pay Fairness Act will ensure that workers share in the fruit of their productivity, by denying CEOs the ability to claim tax deductions on income over $1 million unless they give their employees a well-deserved raise. With the Stop Corporate Expatriation and Invest in America’s Infrastructure Act, we will prevent U.S. corporations from renouncing their citizenship to dodge paying their fair share of taxes and use those dollars to create good-paying jobs here at home.
“Republicans, however, blocked the House from considering both bills – choosing instead to spend the opening days of the new Congress advancing more special interest priorities. The American people expect Congress to champion the paychecks of middle class families, not the profits of big banks and corporations shipping jobs overseas. Republicans should stop undermining the middle class, and come together with Democrats to create jobs, bigger paychecks and better infrastructure for every American family.”
In a video message done in French, the hacktivist group Anonymous vowed to avenge the deaths and murders of the souls lost at Charlie Hebdo. “We can not fall to the ground. It is our duty to react,” the group said.
The group vowed to fight for the “inviolate and sacred right to express opinions in any way” and said those who opposed freedom of expression can expect “a massive frontal assault from us, because the struggle for the defense of these freedoms is the foundation of our movement.”
“We are declaring war against you, the terrorists” and vowed to close accounts on social networks linked to terrorists. He wore a Guy Fawkes mask to disguise his identity.
Here we go with Fox News again. Following the shooting in France where 12 people at a satirical newspaper were killed by Islamic terrorists, Fox News went to their general in chief, their apparent terrorist expert, their well schooled man in everything Islam! Fox News went to their military expert Tom McInerney and his conclusion is “Political correctness is killing us” and New York better watch out, because of the “communist” New York mayor Bill De Blasio could see the same attack happen in New York!
Did you know that Bill DeBlasio was going to take away the guns from the New York police? Well I didn’t know that either, but Fox News and Tom McInerney apparently think that is the next step here in New York!
Jeeze!!!
Donald Trump went on David Letterman last night and spewed some lies about Obamacare. So much lies were told, that David Letterman actually had to interject at one point, saying “I don’t believe that is true.” At another point when Trump continued complaining about Obamacare, he accused the system of containing “fraud and abuse,” to which Letterman asked for documented proof of said “fraud and abuse.”
But in all the lies, Trump spoke about a friend of his who suffered a serious medical condition while visiting in Scotland. According to Trump, his friend was only supposed to be there for four days when he got sick, and was taken to a hospital where he was treated by some very “great doctors” giving him “great care.” According to Trump, when his friend asked “where do I pay,” he was told, “there are no charge.”
This of course is because Scotland has a single payer type system, and in comparing the American system to that in Scotland, Trump said, “we can have a great system in this country…” before he was cut off by Letterman. But following his line of reasoning one can easily conclude that Trump prefers the Scotland system than the system here in America.

“America’s favorite dad” has been on the receiving end of some bad press recently since numerous women came forward accusing him of drugging and sexually assaulting them. But the 77-year-old comedian is apparently not fazed by all the negative press. He is not allowing those allegations to slow him down.
During a performance before a crowd last night in Ontario, Cosby saw a woman leave her seat and began exiting the auditorium. He asked where she was going to which she replied, “getting a drink.” She then asked Cosby if he wanted a drink too. Cosby replied that he already had one then told the woman, “but, you know, you should be careful drinking around me,” as reported by Richard Warnica, a reporter from the National Post in Toronto.
“The whole audience sort of ‘Ohhhed,'” Warnica added. “It was just this sort of shocking moment.”
Shortly after the joke, a heckler yelled during the performance and was removed. The heckler was in addition to more than 100 protesters who were outside the arena last night.
After the show, Cosby released a new statement from his publicist, saying “One outburst but over 2600 loyal, patient and courageous fans enjoyed the most wonderful medicine that exist for human-kind. Laughter. I thank you… I’m Far From Finished.”
Cosby has denied any allegations of wrongdoing ever since allegations first surfaced in 2004. More women came forward late last year, to which his lawyer released a statement early on saying, “The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true.”
The president’s proposal will offer the first two years of community college for free. The president will formally announce the details of this plan in his upcoming State of The Union Address later this month.
No wonder the jokers in the Republican party are now trying to take credit for the economic growth in this country. Who wouldn’t want to be in charge of an economy with a 5.6 unemployment rate?
The U.S. capped its best year for hiring in 15 years with a healthy job gain in December and the unemployment rate falling to a six-year low. The data adds to signs of strength that contrast with sputtering global growth.
The Labor Department says employers added 252,000 jobs last month and 50,000 more in October and November combined than previously estimated. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.6 percent from 5.8 percent and is at the lowest level since June 2008.
Taking away a woman’s right to choose. This is their priority. We saw it already on the state level where Republicans are in control and now that they control Congress, Republicans are making this war on women’s rights their number one priority.
Reps. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) on Monday reintroduced a ban on abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, which the GOP-controlled House already passed once in 2013. And Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) introduced four bills on Wednesday that would bar Planned Parenthood from receiving federal family planning funds, require all abortion providers to have admitting privileges at a local hospital, ban abortions performed on the basis of gender, and allow hospitals, doctors and nurses to refuse to provide or participate in abortion care for women, even in cases of emergency.
Planned Parenthood Action Fund President Cecile Richards condemned the onslaught of anti-abortion bills on Thursday and the attack on her own organization.
“The public wants Congress to protect women’s health, not interfere in women’s personal medical decisions,” she said in a statement, “which means making sure all forms of birth control are affordable, women can get preventive care at Planned Parenthood and other trusted providers, and abortion remains safe and legal.”
While the 20-week abortion ban never received a vote in the Senate after passing the House, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has promised anti-abortion activists that he will bring the bill to the floor. It would ban abortions two to four weeks earlier than the fetus would be viable outside the womb, violating the precedent set by the Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. (In that case, the court ruled that women have a constitutional right to legal abortion up until the fetus would be viable outside the womb.)
Rand Paul appeared on The Sean Hannity radio show today to discuss, among other things, the recent shooting on Charlie Hebdo in France, and while talking to the Fox News host, Rand Paul, a top Republican actively pursuing the White House in 2016 said, “That barbarous aberration of a religion is opposed to the free flow of ideas.”
Even though the two suspects still at large were reportedly born in France, Paul soon brought up immigration policy, suggesting, “You’ve got to secure your country. And that means maybe that every Muslim immigrant that wishes to come to France shouldn’t have an open door to come.” He continued: “It’s also my concern here. I think our border is a danger to attack, as well as our student visa program. Several of the attackers on 9/11 were here on student visas they had overstayed.”
When Hannity quoted a New York Times editorial saying it’s no time “to smear all Muslims with a terrorist brush,” Paul laughed. “I think they must be totally deaf and dumb,” he said, “Because, think about it. I haven’t seen any Christians or Jews dragging people of the Islamic faith through the streets, but I am seeing the opposite. I’m seeing Christians beheaded, I’m seeing people who say anything about Islam being shot, unarmed, being shot.”
He continued: “And so, yeah, should the rules always protect everyone’s rights? Yeah, but I’m not worried too right now that we’ve infringed on their rights, I’m worried that Christians and Jews are being killed around the world.”
