Dr. Cornell West Is MTV’s Artist Of The Week

In Celebration of black history month, MTV networks have selected Dr. Cornell West as MTV Artist of the week.
I always give credit where it is due, as this is an individual with a high degree of understanding in regards to the inner workings of Pop Culture and American Culture as a whole, who does NOT shy away from subject matters that may put him at odds with the
STATUS QUO . He actually embraces these types subject matters and it shows that MTV has made some attitude adjustments in regards to some of the content being fed to the youth. It’s a start, or maybe a SUBLIMINAL CHECK aimed at Kayne West.

Dubai Palm Islands

Welcome to Dubai.
While various cultures boast of some form of a paradise after death, it appears that the Crown Prince Of the United Arab Emirates has decided to build one on earth while waiting.

The City of Dubai, is a tourist destination for the uber wealthy, and the current cosmopolitan apex of the entire Persian Gulf region.

What sets this location apart from other global getaways for the jet set, are the man made islands that currently exist and are under construction.The developers are proving that having a vision, along with proper funding can result in some phenonmonal feats.

PALM ISLANDS

This concept is based on the plan to create a series of man made islands off the coast of Dubai, to allow the expansion of the city to span out into the sea.

The entire project is stated to have come into existence, as although the
United Arab Emirates is one of the largest oil producing nations in the world,the reserves are predicted to run out by the year 2016. The solution that the original crown prince came up with, was to turn the city into the authority in luxury tourism.Another challenge soon surfaced ,as there is a limited amount of coast area for the city, which would limit the amount of available tourist space.
The Solution?
Build Man Made Islands ,and make them the largest and most complex man made islands in history.

The first of the three islands is known as
PALM JUMEIRAH

Its the first island constructed in this project, and primarily sets the standards for what is to come.The vision hinges on constructing this island to house the best in luxury accommodation on earth.The primary example of what is unfolding is in the current hotel destination known as
Burj -Al-Arab( Arabian Towers)

http://www.burj-al-arab.com
Built on its own island within the Palm Jumeirah sector, the hotel opened its doors in 2000 and is currently considered by most as the best hotel on earth, and advertises itself as the worlds only 7 Star Hotel,constructed in the form of an Arabian sailing ship,with a construction cost of approximately $1.5 billion dollars.
The competition is on its heels, and interestingly enough,it is coming from the same city, which is Dubai.This hotel gives plenty of insight into the level of BALLERISZM that is Dubai, as some minor details of this particular lodging destination include a personal butler staff for each suite, a chauffeured transportation service equipped with a fleet of Rolls Royce vehicles, and an average price of around $15K-$20K per night , for the basics.

2007 PGA Champion At Burj-Al-Arab

The Palm Jumeriah Island , is focused on providing resort style living for its visitors with shopping malls, hotels, and entertainment facilities included.

The Next Island Is The
Palm Jabel Ali


Still under construction, this island is geared towards adult and child tourists alike, and will have more of a emphasis on actual residencies in the form of vacation homes for those who have the funds to afford there own piece of the island.

Third on the list and scheduled for completion in the year 2015 is the island known as
Palm Diera

This island is scheduled to be the largest of all three palm islands, with over the top features that surpass the current monumental luxury lifestyle accommodation’s featured within the other islands and the city of Dubai itself.

For OFFICIAL PIMPIN BALLERIZM STANDARDS, the city of Dubai is a must.
Coming attractions also include a series of man made islands know as the
World Islands, in which individuals will have a chance to actually own their very own secluded island within this paradise.
Last but not least is that one and only
Burj Dubai (Dubai Tower)

http://www.burjdubai.com

Currently scheduled for completion in the year 2008, the building will reach a height of 141 storeys with over 160 floors making it the tallest on earth, equipped with shops, pools, spas, corporate suites, luxury apartments, and even a hotel in which Giorgio Armani has been dubbed as its interior decorator.

To get in where you fit in, be sure to contact the
Nakheel Properties Group, which is the government sponsored corporation overseeing the Dubia New World Development Project.The person in charge of Al Nakheel is
Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, who reports directly to the current crown prince of the
United Arab Emirates,

Shaikh Muhammad bin Rashid

Keeping Up With The Kardashians

I took a moment to do something I rarely find time for or have or interest in as of late..WATCH REALITY T.V.

Flipping through the channels after the Democratic Candidate Debate , I stumbled upon the Style Channel and a show which I actually forgot was on the air (cable).

The Show –
Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
http://www.eonline.com/on/shows/kardashians/index.jsp
Here is some feedback from a bit of a different perspective.

The show is actually produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions, based around the lives of The Kardashian Family , with Bruce Jenner included as he is currently married to Kris the mother of the Kardashian children.

For those unfamiliar with the history, Kim Kardashian and her sisters and brother are the children of the late Robert Kardashian,who was brought into the spotlight as a good personal friend and attorney of O.J. Simpson, and was actually the one who arranged the surrender to authorities after the infamous White Bronco Freeway Chase preceding the Simpson murder trial.
Kim Kardashians claim to fame outside of celebrity circles is a result of her infamous sex tape with Ray J, brother of R&B singer Brandy following in the tradition of her
ex-socialite pal Paris Hilton. So with that out of the way, on with the review.

Ummmm.
I actually watched 3 episodes in a row, just to be sure to not jump to conclusions before I posted this, yet the facts were confirmed soon after I finished.

First things first.
Are we to say that in the lives of the Grown Kardiashian Girls, there exists NO AFRICAN AMERICAN MALE FRIENDS or ASSOCIATES, or any other minority group members? The storyline of the show makes it appear to be their reality.
One episode was in regards to Kim’s Playboy photoshoot, where she actually met with Hugh Hefner personally.
Another episode was about Kris Jenner’s management crisis , in regards to her daughters career as she is acting as her personal business manager.
The third episode was regarding Khloe’s arrest and trip to the Van Nuys jail for a DUI.

Overall, it was pretty much the same ole soup, just reheated, with the same exact themes, and camera angles and jingles as popular past Celeb-Reality shows, which I actually expected to see due to the short attention spans of people who frequent these programs. Ratings seem to be fairly decent, so I wont say too much in regards to criticism, and chalk it up to supply and demand, yet in So Cal, the odds of spending an entire day without encountering ANY members of any ethnic group except for Caucasians & Armenian (Kardashians) is a bit intriguing, especially with the reputation of the types of men that KIM prefers to um…ASSOCIATE with!

I stayed tuned in, simply out of respect for Bruce Jenner, which was a childhood icon of mine that I actually still respect.
Also, well, Khloe does have a “FATTY” that should be focused on more, and the Kardashian Girl Klan is giving us yet another example of the growing trend which proves what Sir Mix Alot said in the 90’s in regards to Tail Bone.
“Even Whiteboys Have To Shout…BABY gOt baCk!!”

Like I said, I’m going to take it light like the show is meant to be, and simply wait for the proper time to unveil my own “P-True Hollywood Stories” footage, and let the people in , in front of, and around the 7-11’s , Jack in the Box, and Liquor Stores throughout L.A. share a few things of importance with you about whats you REALLY WANNA SEE and KNOW ABOUT.

Till Then.

B-Rock Obama- How The West Was Won

As of 2-20-08, Barack Obama (B-Rock) has secured two additional victories in is approach to the oval office, now adding up to a complete tenth consecutive victory in the democratic nominee competition.

It appears to me that all of the hype is simply for entertainment, and better ratings as the race has already been decided before the beginning of the new year.The decision maker is none other than the young lady seen on the left although most uninitiated people would not quite be able to fathom the true effectiveness and power of her choice.

Hillary Clinton is on a self sabotage course, as she has the thought of defeat in her mind which she and her campaign team are fighting against. It appears that her campaign is on the attack, and whenever an individual goes on the offensive, it’s usually is a defensive reaction, which indicates a feeling of fear and concern.

Simply put, its the application of this same tactic that makes Muhammad Ali , the greatest fighter of all time.
Contrary to popular belief , it was not his physical abilities which resulted in his excellence, as most boxing experts claim many fighters past and present were of equal or better build physically. it was his uncanny ability to place the seed of fear and doubt inside of the minds of his opponent , effect them on an emotional level, and cause them to sabotage themselves by having them focus on his words which led to a self fulfilling prophecy for each of his opponents.

Hot Dawgy-
Thats why I get paid the BIG BUCKS.
Any other political candidates running for office, should feel free to contact me for my services and rates.
