As Sony Music singer Chris Brown continues to serve the 180 days of hard labor he was sentenced to, as ordered by a Los Angeles judge, in his domestic violence case, a few of his remaining fans came out to gawk at the grinning singer.
Brown is clearly glad he was not incarcerated, after getting into a physical fight with equally strange girlfriend, Rihanna, in response to her hitting him. The two refuse to talk about that night and why the fight grew so severe, he nearly choked her to death.
Chris Brown A/K/A the garbage man
Sony R&B singer and woman puncher, Chris Brown, was photographed performing hard labor, during an ongoing community service stint, cleaning up trash along highways in Virginia.
To change up one his "Run It" lyrics, "If the garbage is on the floor, if it ain't, let me know..."
It is apart of his sentence for beating girlfriend, Rihanna, in response to her attacking him in a rented Lamborghini in February 2009, after a Grammy Awards event.
U.S. President Barack Obama and Sasha Obama
U.S. President Barack Obama has backed away from a few of his public initiatives, some of which I think is regrettable. The President needs to stand firm on some issues.
Yes, he needs to listen to the American people, who are his constituents, but it is not everything that causes debate that he should cave in on, as it will unintentionally set up an image that people can run roughshod over him.
For example, the call for students to help Obama was not an unreasonable request. There is nothing wrong with serving one's country.
National healthcare is one thing, as it can prove tricky and costly at a time the nation is in financial straits, but helping your country is free of cost, as all that is required is to show up, willing to donate your time.
Was it not Kennedy who said "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." There's nothing wrong with community service and charity work. People need a helping hand and those able to do so should volunteer. Society has never been made worse for it.
I would encourage people, no matter what country they live in, to give of your time and help others. The rewards are greater than you could ever imagine.
WH withdraws call for students to 'help' Obama
UPDATED: - President Obama's plan to inspire the nation's schoolchildren with a video address next week erupted into controversy Wednesday, forcing the White House to pull out its eraser and rewrite a government recommendation that teachers nationwide assign students a paper on how to "help the president."
Presidential aides acknowledged the White House helped the U.S. Education Department craft the proposal, which immediately was met by fierce criticism from Republicans and conservative organizations who accused Mr. Obama of trying to politicize the education system.
White House aides said the language was an honest misunderstanding in what was supposed to be a inspirational, pro-education message to America's youths.
Among the activities the government initially suggested for pre-kindergarten to sixth-grade students: that they "write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president." Another task recommended for students immediately after listening to the speech: to engage in a discussion about what "the president wants us to do."
The novel curriculum plan brought sharp criticism from conservatives, including some who complained that classrooms were being used to spread political propaganda. In response, the White House last night confirmed they were revising the lesson plan that was distributed last week by the U.S. Department of Education.
"We're clarifying that language," White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said...
