2 Shot, 11 Arrested After a Brawl Over Cell Phone
Two people were shot and 11 arrested following a brawl involving 6 carloads of people — including 8 children. According to police, the fight was started by two baby mamas, who share the same baby daddy. The fight was over a cell phone.

Eleven people were arrested Tuesday after an argument between two groups of people over a cell phone erupted into a gun battle that left two men wounded.
Fulton County police spokeswoman Melissa Parker said the 12:45 a.m. brawl on Westford Circle off Old National Highway began as an argument between Reba Talton, 28, and Pamela Thompson, 20, over a cell phone and an ongoing dispute involving Michael Caine, the father of both of their children.
“Ms. Thompson drove to Ms. Talton’s residence with approximately six carloads of people wanting to fight,” Parker said. “Thompson and Talton got into a physical altercation in the front yard at which time several others joined in.”
Shortly after the fight began, the two groups exchanged gunfire.
John Talton, 22, and Fernando Broughton, 30, were wounded by gunfire, Parker said. Both men were in stable condition at Grady Memorial Hospital.
“There were many juveniles on the scene at the time the gunfire was exchanged,” Parker said, adding that one of the vehicles that drove to the scene had about eight children inside, ranging in age from one to nine.
After conducting interviews with everyone involved, police arrested 11 people on charges that included aggravated assault, battery, disorderly conduct and cruelty to children.
Extreme Tennis Anyone?
Tennis stars Venus Williams and Andy Murray have conquered their tennis opponents on every playing surface — except on the roof of a car.
So today they set about to remedy that situation by playing a single set of extreme tennis while on the roof of cars in Miami Beach, Florida.
Actually, Serena and Andy were filming a sponsorship commercial while in town for the Sony Ericcson Open at Key Biscayne.

China to World Banks: “Dump the U.S. Dollar”
China, the largest holder of U.S. treasuries, is not happy with Barack Obama’s morally suspect plans to bankrupt the U.S. by printing $1 trillion to relieve banks of toxic assets.
The head of China’s central bank has put out a call to dump the dollar as the international reserve currency and replace it with a new global (monetary) system controlled by the International Monetary Fund. [LINK]
“This is a clear sign that China, as the largest holder of US dollar financial assets, is concerned about the potential inflationary risk of the US Federal Reserve printing money,” said Qu Hongbin, chief China economist for HSBC.
Even China can see the danger in Obama’s socialist agenda and glaring inexperience in running a country.
Obama promised suffering homeowners that his administration would “hit the ground running” when he got into office in January. But instead of helping the homeowners he has shoveled bucket loads of cash at the greedy bankers and corporations who got us into this mess in the first place!
Luo Ping, a director-general at the China Banking Regulatory Commission, said this about Americans after a speech in New York back in February:
“We hate you guys. Once you start [printing] $1 trillion-$2 trillion [$1,000bn-$2,000bn] . . .we know the dollar is going to depreciate, so we hate you guys but there is nothing much we can do.” [LINK]
Video: 60 Minutes to Obama: “Are You Punch Drunk?”
More evidence that Barack Obama underestimated the failing economy and really has no clue how to fix it.
Oh, by the way, some of you may have heard about the $1 trillion that Obama plans to print up to relieve banks of their toxic assets (bad loans, foreclosed properties, etc.)
The only problem with his plan is it will devalue the dollar all over the world resulting in an even worse recession.
Even China is making noise about Obama’s plan to erode the value of our currency.
Does Obama even have enough investors lined up who are willing to buy $1 trillion in garbage assets from the government?
Let’s say Obama finds an investor to take the garbage assets off his hands. If the investor resells the properties and turns a profit on those assets he will get his initial investment back.
The problem is he will be forced to split 50% of his profits with the government. The other 50% will be taxed at 90%. That means the toxic assets from the government are an even worse investment than if the investors purchased the crap from the banks at rock bottom prices! So guess who will be left holding the bag for Obama’s latest $1 trillion expenditure?
FanMAIL: Zonnique and Her Dad Zeboe
Yesterday, we posted pics from Zonnique’s 13th birthday party. Someone left a comment asking who Zonnique’s dad was. A loyal reader, who asked to remain anonymous, sent in these pics of Zonnique, Tiny, Zeboe and Zeboe’s fiance Cheryl.
She said Zeboe attended his daughter’s birthday party on Sunday with his fiance Cheryl and ‘Nique’s little brother Zonnie, who is being held by his sister in the very last photo of yesterday’s post.
Here is a picture of Zonnique and her dad. Please post and correct your bloggers by letting them know that Zeboe is very active in his daughter’s life and the ENTIRE extended family has a wonderful relationship.
Is Obama the Dumbest President Ever?
Anyone who’s seen the movie “Men in Black” knows how to pronounce the word “Orion” as Or-EYE-on instead of Or-EE-on. Even if you’re not a Will Smith fan — as Barack Hussein Obama claims to be — you should know how to pronounce the name of the company that you’re speaking at.
Obama mispronounces the word “Orion” three times in this video that was shot during his visit to the Orion Energy Systems offices yesterday. This is more proof that Obama slept through classes at uh, uh, Harvard.
