Meet Bryttani…

previous post: Questions

  1. Wash and brush your hair the next time you try a sexy pose bitch

  2. I really hope she doesn’t know how to read

  3. Her fat arm is super sexy

  4. 4 Inches of Awesome

    That huge blop of lard has so many skin folds she can satisfy 8 dudes at once, and none of them are likely to see each other during that time…

  5. Brytanni, you are a steaming pile of faeces infused with crusty, 3 day old porpoise spunk. You are a felcher’s delight.

  6. Would.

  7. I don’t think that’s her real cleavage at all. I think she just stuffed her arm in a bra.

  8. That girl has serious self-esteem issues. It’s like she has to put down the whole world to boost herself up.

    I know this comment isn’t funny but I just woke up and I’m grumpy.

  9. One word….. assassinate.

  10. I found her profile… I just couldn’t help myself.

    178 photos of nauseating cleavage, “sexy” poses [that made me want to scratch my own eyes out] and photoshopped pictures with catchy little diddies like “Fuck my Babydaddy!” and “Love my cusion to bits!”

  11. Oh yuck, she has a baby daddy? o_0 how did that happen?!?

  12. too bad the Japanese are too busy with the nuclear plant, this is a whale they should kill….

  13. I think I saw her once in Tijuana selling herself for 3 pesos that’s like .25 usd

  14. Last name??

  15. guadiano

  16. I’m speechless.

  17. That thing on her forehead asked me to tell you all “Hi”

  18. Yeah, I really hope he’s good at licking that “clik.” And you’re right, that cleavage one totally looks like her arm in a bra.

  19. Did she make her profle private when you posted her name? Because the one I found looks just like her, but I can’t view her photos. But in the tagged photos, her friend has a serious fivehead.

  20. Her tramp stamp looks like it was designed by a seven year-old.

  21. No, it was private when I found it… But all those tagged photos are her Profile Pictures.

  22. She’s got some serious fattitude.

  23. I just figured that out once I braved clicking on them. I knew I’d regret that. And both her tattoos look like they were drawn by small children.

  24. That is one scary woman.

  25. I typed her name but it didn’t come up, Is her first name Spelled different?

  26. No it’s still the same stupid ass Brytanni, which I believe is pronounced “Bry-TAN-nee.” Middle name Jean.

  27. Just looked through her photos. Every single one of them could have been posted on LB. *shudder*

  28. WTF it doesn’t even show up on my iPhone :( I wanted to see some fails

  29. @27 You’re right and WTFFFF at the leopard lingerie?!?! O_O Oh my god, my whole morning is ruined.

  30. Lmao found wow this fat bitch sucks so hard, she’s a winner in my book

  31. After like 10 minutes of clicking through her photos on her Facebook, um gag! And wtf up with all those comments telling her shes so sexciiii……… I kinda want to friend her up myself and tell her what an ugly ass face she is. One picture had 6 small children in it and she said she loves all her babys, oh gosh i hope thats not all 6 of her offspring!@@@

  32. Holy shit there’s a lot of “Bryttani”s.

  33. There’s a photo of her in all white, and a guy named Joe commented “Working out huh…lol”. She flipped with: “wow whats the mean? Are u trying to say i was fat wtf!” Of course, he denied it, saying the shorts fit well. Sigh. He should have said: “YES YOU LOOK FAT, BRYTTANI.”

  34. Heh. Someone warned her she was up here. As I was clicking through the profile photos I got the “you don’t have permission” message. Now her profile’s locked down.

  35. Her profile is private now :(

  36. As I read these Lamebook posts
    Bryttani makes me gag the most.
    I pray, oh Lord, for this one need-
    please don’t ever let her breed.

  37. Same here. Of course, thanks to the new profile view, I can still see the thumbnails. Thank you, Facebook. ;)

  38. she looks like HELL on her twitter picture. sexy_lilfreak09

  39. Who knows, maybe she is like a moped! Only fun to ride till your friends find out!

  40. When you name your child Bryttani, you pretty much doom them to the stripper pole, wouldn’t you say?

  41. It is actually amazing these people figured out how to get to the internet.

  42. I was wondering when she’d find out she’s on here. I wonder if she’ll show up telling us we’re all jeluz biotchez.

  43. ifitwerentformyhorse

    I’m jealous of her fat rolls.

  44. she did , i can’t see her bobbies no more.

  45. By the size of her arm, she’s gotta go three fiddy.
    ….. pssst, Wash your hair Brytt, that’s trifflin’

  46. It’s her eyebrows that make me most jealous. I can’t afford a Sharpie to make mine look like that.

  47. She fat

  48. Dukey Smoothy Buns

    That girl is fat.

  49. @DukeySmoothyBuns — Really? You see all of these things, and the one problem you have is that she is fat? I don’t know which of you is worse, her or you.

  50. Damn, no access to her photos at all anymore. I was really hoping to fap to her.

  51. is it wrong that i friended her?

  52. Just think, if you’re 19 years old and female and have mediocre looks, you can be out of shape, arrogant and full of yourself, completely incompetent with the english language, post classless “prayas”, and all sorts of nasty and rude to people stuff and still get laid. Amazing. But time catches up. We’ll be seeing girls like this on people of walmart at age 35 or 40.

  53. Dukey Smoothy Buns

    bnt5 if she were hot, then I would have no problem with all the shit she is saying.

    Welcome to Lamebook by the way and for the love of God don’t tell us if you are also fat or just gained “comfort weight” we wont let you live it down.

  54. Dukey Smoothy Buns

    Come to think of it, don’t tell us if you are a lingerie model, you wont live that down either.

  55. @49
    Her…she’s fat.

  56. I am not fat, or a lingerie model. I’m consistently average, nothing for you to make fun of haha, sorry.

    And thanks.

  57. Dukey Smoothy Buns

    Being “consistently average” IS something to make fun of. Not like I was trying.

  58. You really should applaud yourself for being able to make fun of absolutely anyone. I guess you could consider it a talent, or maybe it just makes you an asshole. Who knows.

  59. It’s a talent and we love him for it. Also, by consistently average I’m assuming you weigh around 180 pounds.

  60. Incorrect, sir.

  61. ok first off yall have no life u stupid little ass no good non haven a life people! how can yall sit here and talk shit bout someone yall dont know umm can we say people with no life! as for the 6 kids dont fuckin worry bout if she had 30 kids its none of yalls biz! yall haten bc she prob aint give yall a time and day and will never in her life! lets all get it together u fuckin low life bitches! yall can talk shit all yall want but little do yall know yall keeping her famous seriously lamebook who the fuck made this shit! ooo yeah a person with no life!!! yall gettin on here tittes but i believe yall mad bc yall dont have none like hers u fuckin fagots! its a damn shame yall hate on her for damn reason she must got something yall dont have! like a life! and as for her selling her self boo u mad bc u cant hit that lmfao yall people are so bored with ur life that u have to get on someone else but i guess thats ok too bc like i said u maken her world wide famous! we laugh at haters like yall!!!!!!!!!!!!! lmfao lord have mercy on yalls souls. lmfao you people crack us up omg!!!!!!! lol my daughters godmom is famous yall……hehehe ill be sure she leaves yall an autograph at the door!!! bye low life people!!!!

  62. “forgetuhoe”
    You must be as much of a Fatty McSkankface as Bryttani is. The only thing Bryttani has that I don’t have is a collection of rolls larger than your local bakery and some sharpie eyebrows.

    And I’m sure no one on this site would even wanna “hit that” with a rock.

  63. Did anyone else read “forgetuhoe’s” comment in an American Redneck accent?

    Now I can’t get the word “ya’ll” out of my head >.<
    She used it twenty times ffs.

  64. @panther isn’t that the only way to read it?
    Ok so I’m new to lamebook I have been browsing through for about a week and have learned to look at the comments the last day or two; sometimes the comments are way more funny than the actual content.
    On this post I thought the fact that everyone searched her and found a way to look at her pictures even though the page was blocked (oh oh just had a thought, since she’s on private I wonder if the person who submitted her did what y’all did or is one of her friends?? I’m a little slow; not slow like bryttani, more ditzy less skank retard). Anyway, I thought that was taking it a little too far and I kind of wanted to comment stating that. Well forgetahoe (great name btw.. because after reading your thoughts that’s all I want to do, my own literary skills have been knocked down a bit) she jumped in and made my point for me, in not quite the words I would have used, but then again I’m pretty fluent at english.
    The reason I’m posting is really to just say hello to all of you.. I will probably start showing up more, I really really hope you like me!! With my “comfort weight” lingerie wearing ass and all lol I’m just kidding about some of that, I’ll leave which part I’m kidding about to yall .
    I’ve forgotten my point, to simply say forgetahoe is stupid is stupid itself, you can all see that, but I got carried away in my comment and I am just ready to end it… so I will do just that, but first @forgetahoe do you think you could pull some strings for me and get Bryttani to sign my cleavage?? I’ve always wanted someone famous to autograph my boobs!

On the Job…

previous post: Hooked!

  1. I love Will’s lame crusade

  2. Holy crap this is messed up… I wonder if it’s real…

  3. yes its real. my grandma actually got me one of these. i hang it in the tattoo shop i work at

  4. For all you uncultured shits out there, this is a piece of Egyptian art depicting the circumcision of teenage boys. I have a very very similar piece at home. It’s neither racist nor explicit.

  5. @cwark: …in my religion, people are circumcised, but I still don’t keep fucking PICTURES of them in action

  6. circumsizing teenagers while they’re conscious might not be racist or explicit but it sure is twisted and cruel! ahg, i am on a crusade of my own: preserve the foreskin people!

  7. @cwark_91 -Is it uncultured to not have a picture of an egyption circumcision in my home?… I’d love to take a poll of how many people would get dirty thoughts from this pic:)

  8. Why would you hit a guy on the head with a ruler while you’re getting circumcised?

  9. What are the rulers for? ………… OH….

  10. yeah but that was part of ancient egyptian culture back then so it was normal for them and obviously it seems odd to us right now. this is a piece of art- not sick pornography. i have a papyrus piece at home with women topless (my parents bought it, not me) which is obviously normal back then. remember, this is historic, not a present-day depiction.

  11. cwark is frodo

  12. Marc is gimli

  13. That actually isn’t racist at all. My step brother and sister are part Egyptian and their father is Egyptian. The darker you are, they see it, back then, as how poor you are. The rich would stay in the shade and try not to get dark at all other than their natural pigment. The darker skin ones are the ones that are the workers/poor because they spend their time in the sun working.

    So, not racist.

    William is an r-tard.

  14. *retart

  15. @cwark_91 -See, now that’s a perfectly normal comment. And I totally agree, art is completely different from porno. However, I don’t care who you are, but anyone seeing this picture without a further knowledge of it’s background is automatically going to think that same thought. Now that I know it’s background, it’s not that funny. The only thing i find funny is it’s misinterpretation today:)

  16. @cwark_91 – Still pretty damn inappropriate for the workplace. Naked pics, artistic or not, should never be in the workplace. Instead, there should be pics of like, eagles soaring or motivational kittens.

    Hang in there, Kitty!!!

  17. Nevermind about Pacman having the upperhand…This has taken the pancake.

  18. @Marc:
    cwark has a pool/FRODO DOESN’T HAVE A POOL

  19. I think it’s perfectly appropriate for the office. It’s not exactly a photograph or an accurate representation. It’s merely a piece of art from an extremely interesting time in history.

  20. @cwark_91 I agree. not lame at all. it’s history. and art. no need to be immature.

  21. This is the sort of thing you put on your wall for the express purpose of acting self-righteous and culturally enlightened when people laugh at it or call it offensive.

  22. Guyz let’s stop being so immature. This is beautiful art. I took a picture of my balls yesterday and have it hanging in bike shop. Stop being so immature. Penis, Penis, vagina, vagina

  23. LOL @ William’s half-cocked rant (geddit?)

  24. So, by Williams account, interracial porn is classified under “racism”?

  25. Ha ha!! I don’t care if it’s art or porn. It’s men, holding each others willies and whacking on the head!! Hilarious! I’d love it in my work place – hours of fun!! Ha ha!!

  26. For all you uncultured shits out there, this is a piece of Egyptian art depicting the circumcision of teenage boys. I have a very very similar piece at home. It’s neither racist nor explicit.

    Yay, I’m an uncultured shit.

    It looks rude, therefore I laughed.

  27. Goldenfry, why so serious?

    I highly doubt this picture was hung (so to speak) for its cultural meaning!

  28. That poor dark fluffer.

  29. @RubyPuppateaux #9
    Physical examination?

  30. That is NOT a ruler smacking the guy on the head. See link below. And frankly, I would think it was the darker skinned persons in control here. Doctor’s even. How is that racist? ;)

  31. lemonkc: LOLOL!

  32. What hasn’t been mentioned here is that this picture actually hangs in the offices of the Traditoinal Egyptian Cerimonial Circumcision Centre. Therefore it is totally appropriate.

  33. Who cares about its historical and traditional significance. It looks like guys playing with other guys wangs, therefore is fucking hilarious!

  34. …AND one guy is whacking the other on the head.

    It’s like an awesome, dirty, Egyptian version of Little Bunny Foo Foo.

    @Cloudchaser (30): I believe the darker-skinned people depicted in this picture are priests (I think I remember from history class that priests usually performed the circumcisions in Egypt) and not doctors, but same idea.

  35. “you pull me, I whack you”. Brilliant game. Anyone want to play? :P

  36. Unless the workplace is a doctor’s office where circumcisions are performed I am gonna have to agree with jooooojo and say it isn’t really appropriate for the office whether art or porn.

  37. I guess I was the only one who thought it was the comment which was lame, not the picture.

  38. awe, they didn’t post all the 7 other comments… this photo was taken in jest :D

    @yaya, yes it is at a doctors office but I’m pretty sure we don’t do circumcisions

  39. These Egyptians seem more liberal than some of the self-righteous idiots here. lol YAY for Ancient Egyptians! Second part of William’s comment is HILARIOUS! Uff!

  40. justgotbackfromegypt

    They aren’t giving each other hand jobs, they’re cutting the dicks off of the people they conquered, which is how they proved to the pharaoh that they won. A drawing like this is carved in the temple at abu simbel. Whatever, still funny as hell

  41. Christ on a cracker

    There were homos in Egypt back in the pharaohs times? I wonder if they ever got together with the homos from Greece.

  42. It’s not racist, guys. In ancient Egyptian art, women were always colored in reddish brown while men were always colored in tan. It’s also not gay therefore.

  43. cwark_91. Thanks for being a douche about knowing things. You cold have just explained it, but instead were a bitch about it. Adds flavor to the page.

  44. @sensibly madness, you couldn’t be more right if you tried.

  45. Actually, people still do get circumcised in Egypt without anesthetic. I just heard something about a young 13 or 14 year old GIRL getting female circumcision in which they cut the clitoris. Sounds horribly painful to me.

    Regardless, this is ridiculous for an office setting. Maybe the guy has a fetish of some sort? haha i have no idea.

  46. Well, I’m not really versed in old Egyptian Traditions, but I do have read some history books, and I think I read somewhere the people who lived originaly in Egypt were not as dark skinned as the ones who live there now. More like olive-skinned or something. And that they did a lot of campaings to conquer neighbor nations, like Nubia, that indeed had dark skinned people as natives, and after that used them as slaves for some rough labors.
    Maybe circumcisions made without ritual purposes were done by slaves. Or maybe this drawing depicts something totally different and we’ve all believed cwark_91 without doing a little research by ourselves.

Kent Downs AONB

Kent Downs logo

The AONB forms the eastern end of a great arc of designated landscape stretching from the East Hampshire and Surrey Hills AONBs.

The Kent Downs AONB continues from the Surrey border in a widening ribbon of rolling countryside to meet the sea at the cliffs of Dover. Inland, the Downs rise to over 240m, cresting in a prominent escarpment above the Weald to the south. It is traversed by the three prominent river valleys of the Darent, Medway and Stour.

The AONB roughly follows the southeast’s outcrop of chalk and greensand, the two ridges running parallel with each other to the coast. The chalk ridge, with its characteristic dip slope and dry valleys, has great wildlife importance in its unimproved chalk grassland, scrub communities and broadleaved woodlands. The well-wooded greensand ridge is particularly prominent in the Sevenoaks and Tonbridge and Malling districts and supports heathlands and acidic woodlands.

Other distinctive landscape elements include the fast disappearing traditional Kentish orchards and hop gardens and the rich wooded foreground of the upland ridges, together with many fine historic parklands including Knole and Winston Churchill’s Chartwell. The AONB’s ancient settlements include picturesque half-timbered Charing and Chilham on the old Pilgrims Way to Canterbury. Since prehistory, this has been the invasion gateway to England and the North Downs are noted for their archaeological remains and military legacy.

A prosperous farming area, its highgrade land is in intense agricultural and horticultural use. The AONB, bordered by large and expanding urban areas including Ashford, Maidstone and the Medway towns, as well as the ports of Dover and Folkestone, has a large commuter population and the North Downs are a heavily used local recreational resource. The area also receives visitor traffic from London and the Kent resorts, and the AONB forms an integral part of tourist promotion of the ‘Garden of England’. The North Downs Way National Trail runs along the length of the escarpment and loops up to Canterbury.

VERY CLASSY I purchased this dress from Lane Bryant on clearance. I must say the best purchase I have made in a long time.

I actually bought a dress Dress is pretty . Neckline is too low...had to tack it shut. I have bought the same size in other items and had no problem with fit, but this one was small. June 17, 2013
Love this dress! I found this dress on clearance at LB for $25. I paired it with a light green cardigan since I'm not a big fan of going sleeveless. It is light and airy. Very comfortable. Loved it so much that I wore it to a wedding a few weeks ago. :) June 4, 2013

cute colors and comfortable June 25, 2013
love this sweater This sweater is so pretty and comfortable. Perfect for work. June 25, 2013
Just ok I waited to get this sweater on sale, and I am glad I did. The colors aren't as vibrant as shown, and it s more off white. Kind of dull. A little too baggy, but I find that is the case with all Lane Bryant cardigans. I will wear it for ten dollars though, it will match the chartruse scuba pants I purchased this spring. June 22, 2013
Got many compliments I love the look and style of the sweater but it runs a little big. It also super soft which is good but hard to push the sleeves up and have them stay up, Despite this I have gotten many compliments on it. May 5, 2013

Long open cardigan 4.7 5 26 26
Great Go to This is a great light-weight sweater that you could truly wear with anything - shorts/jeans/slacks/skirts, even over a dress. Very simple. Runs a tad big, but is true to fit in the shoulders, which is most important on an open sweater like this. You can't beat it for the sale price; buy a couple of colors, you won't regret it. April 4, 2013
Nice, basic sweater This sweater is very comfy and neutral. It's a little big longer than I'd like, but otherwise very nice. March 27, 2013
love this sweater best light sweater ever. so cute. i am ordering more today, my daughter already took one that i ordered, she love's as well. I need to order 1 or 2 sizes smaller they are large for size. March 16, 2013
A must for everyone I love this sweater so much I have all but 2 of the colors. Great sweater to wear all jean. Put it on over a cami and off to dinner you go. It is a longer length so I don't have to worry if I am flashing someone when I bend over too. March 16, 2013

Fun and current! This tank is cute, comfortable and very fashionable. July 22, 2013
So cute, but fits badly So cute online and in person. However, the twisted straps make the top hang crooked, and the back of the top was bsggy, looked messy. It would have been ok to wear a cami under-but layering is not my friend in the hot humid summer days. So had to return. July 3, 2013
Perfect for Summer Great color and good length. This top is perfect for lounging, going to the beach, or going to the zoo( any warm weather outing). Its cute with a pair of shorts, capris, or even leggings. Super comfortable too.. I've also used it as a bathing suit coverup. June 1, 2013

Falls Apart This top fell apart after wearing only 1 time. Hand washed or not this top was made very poorly and the silver parts in between the purple strips come unraveled!! Too much money for a shirt that falls apart. November 12, 2013
Falls Apart This top is ADORABLE - but if you buy it, prepare to wear it only a handful of times. I washed mine on the gentle cycle and hung it to dry. I just noticed there was a hole in the thin striped material, so I likely won't be wearing this again except on laundry or cleaning day. Hopefully they can improve the overall quality of it and make something similar. August 22, 2013
POORLY MADE I had the shirt on for one day before the shirt started to unravel it now has holes in it and is useless.....so $50 down the drain YAY August 9, 2013
Cute Top I ordered the grape top and really like it. The only problem I had was that the top runs big. I had to return it and get a size smaller. July 23, 2013

Not fashionable Tops like this make a woman look pregnant; when she is not. May 16, 2013
Great blouse, love it! This is a beautiful blouse! I did have to buy a camisole to go with it. I purchased this in size 1X online.. The sizes are different on the Lane Collection and I did not know that. I kept the 1X although it is a little tight under the arms. Because it is a loose style top, the size works. I usually wear size 18 or 20. My correct size should be 2X for the Lane Collection. I could not find anywhere online that the 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X sizes were shown. May 4, 2013
This is a beautiful top. I have received many compliments on it when I wear it! The only thing is that the top part of both sleeves are tight and this makes it a bit uncomfortable. I am going to keep it though. April 19, 2013
beautiful tunic This tunic has beautiful colors and beading around the neckline. However, the sizing runs large. I could have sized down at least one size, maybe 2. I love the look of this so I am going to try the next size down. I have been finding inconsistent sizing in the Lane Collection - jeans run large, coats run small, tops run big. I don't like to have to return over and over again to get the right size. LB, I love your clothes! Please work on making the sizing consistent throughout all collections. Thanks! April 10, 2013

Territorial Highway Open House June 16

Lane County Transportation Planning will host an open house on Monday, June 16 for residents to review proposed changes to Territorial Highway.
The proposed changes are part of the Territorial Highway Corridor Plan to address safety for all modes of transportation between the Gillespie Corners and Cottage Grove—Lorane Road. The plan is being developed in partnership with the Oregon Department of Transportation. Residents will have an opportunity to review two different designs, each of which result in a 34-foot wide road, wider travel lanes, shoulders, curve realignment, and new bridges to eliminate repeat flood events.
“These proposals come from community input from our last open house in October. This discussion is critical for us to design a solution that works for Lane County residents,” said Lydia McKinney, Lane County transportation planning supervisor. “We want to build on the success we had in the fall and invite residents to review the plans we have developed. In the fall we had participation from cyclists, residents, business owners, and loggers. We appreciate the diversity of road users present. The input we get at the open house is critical to finalizing the design.”
What: Open House for Territorial Highway Corridor to review proposed designs to the roadway.
When: 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. with staff presentations at 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.

Where: Lorane Grange, at the corner of Old Lorane Road and Orchard Road in Lorane
Who: Lane County staff, ODOT staff, and Lane County community members

How software based event managing setup facilitates the attendees

An event management software or events software is no doubt a blessing for the managers and event planners. People who are well aware of the benefits of using a software for event management are also well aware of the fact that, dealing with a pre-planned and well organised event is also easy for the users or attendees who will be attending the event.

It is also a fact that such a setup is not only beneficial for the organizing body, but also for those who will be coming or attending the event. Here is how it will be useful for them.

The attendees will find it easier to deal with an automatic booking process as they will be directed towards the next step in a clear way and will not need to deal with various persons or people concerned with the particular department.

Also, event management online makes it easier for the attendees to find the event venue and get all relevant information without any extra efforts.

Through proper venue management software and venue booking software, you will be organizing a perfect venue for the attendees, making it suitable for all. In this way the event will be managed properly and will bring value and ease for the attendees as well.

In addition to this, people will also feel comfortable and well informed due to the availability of a full detailed version of each and every step that needs to be taken and it will facilitate to direct the attendees and make the event more organized and well managed.

So, if we look at the benefits of an online event management plan or software for event management, we can surely say that, such a process will not only benefit the planners and the organizers but also will be helpful in facilitating the attendees to make sure all goals are met to the level, it was intended to be.

Tender Napalm - The West Coast Premiere Returns

By Anita J. Lee

View the Full Article | Return to the Site

SIX 01 STUDIO is proud to present the West Coast Premiere of TENDER NAPALM, written by Philip Ridley, and Directed by Edward Edwards.  The fiercely explosive production will be returning to SIX 01 STUDIO, beginning October 12, 2013.

Graham Hamilton, Jaimi Paige (Photo: Andrew Amani)

About The Show

Two young lovers struggle to reconcile their relationship in the face of disaster. As their individual coping mechanisms trigger each other’s despair the young couple lives out the play in a series of wild fantasies, transcending time and space in a violent and sexually charged tapestry of what was, and what is to be. Funny, brutal, and surprisingly touching, TENDER NAPALM is a gorgeously rendered and singular play.

Graham Hamilton, Jaimi Paige (Photo: Andrew Amani)

What the Press Are Saying

“Fascinating show!” - ArtsBeatLA.COM

“Hamilton and Paige give as good as they get, both expertly wielding Ridley’s rhapsodic, razor-edged monologues and giving profound meaning to the expression, “acting is reacting.” - LA WEEKLY

“Intoxicating” - THE TIMES (UK)

“Romantically entertaining...breathtaking...Director Edwards shows off his talents in this marvel of a production...” - LIFE IN LA

“Violently beautiful...Unforgettable!” - TIME OUT

WOW! “Sensational West Coast Premiere...L.A.’s most dynamic and gifted young actors” - STAGE SCENE LA

“Fierce...Transfixing...Moving...Daring...” - THE NEW YORK TIMES “Explosive...Viciously Funny...Deeply Sensual” - THE GUARDIAN

Graham Hamilton, Jaimi Paige (Photo: Andrew Amani)

TENDER NAPALM runs October 12 through November 26, 2013.  Performances are at SIX 01 STUDIO at 601 Anderson Street in Los Angeles, Sunday 7PM, Monday & Tuesday 8PM.  Tickets are $20 (General Admission).  Running time is 80 minutes with concessions available. Allow time for street parking.

Methadone clinics don't attract crime, study finds

Methadone clinics are often seen as the bad neighbor nobody wants.

Residents concerned about crime and other quality-of-life issues often protest if they even hear word of a methadone clinic, which treats those addicted to heroin and other opiates, is considering moving into the area.

But drug-addiction specialists who say methadone is one of the most effective ways to treat opiate dependency are hoping a new study led by a University of Maryland School of Medicine assistant professor debunks concerns that the clinics breed crime and drag down neighborhoods.

The study is the first of its kind that takes a geographic look at crime around clinics, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Previous research only has examined the link between crime and methadone users.

"The concern is that methadone treatment facilities are related to a higher crime rate in the area, but there is no evidence that this is what happens," said Antonello Bonci, scientific director of the institute. "We hope this study will alleviate this concern. I hope people will look at this data and realize it is not a problem."

The research, led by UM's Dr. Susan Boyd and others, found that crime doesn't increase because a methadone clinic opens.

The study used FBI Uniform Crime reports from the Baltimore Police Department to look at crime near 13 methadone clinics for a two-year period beginning in 1999. Researchers compared these reports to crime data for similar areas in Baltimore where there were no methadone clinics.

They also compared crime around methadone clinics to crime near hospitals and convenience stores in the city. Crime was more likely to occur around convenience stores, the researchers found.

"I think there is still a very bad perception of methadone clinics," Boyd said. "There are many more people out there who need treatment, but there are not enough slots and clinics available, and part of it is because of the community stereotypes they have about methadone clinics."

Methadone clinics in the state are tightly regulated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

Still, the clinics' locations have caused bitter, and sometimes politically charged battles, some of which have ended up in court. Zoning restrictions keep the clinics out of certain communities. Owners of the clinics said it is sometimes tough to get landlords to lease to them.

In many of these incidents, residents said that they believe crime increases and that methadone users, many of whom must come to the clinic daily, loiter after getting their dose of methadone to control their drug urges.

There also is debate about whether methadone users just trade one addiction for another and that the clinics continue to feed a drug culture. And even though methadone clinics have tight controls for distribution of the drug, there are cases of the drug's abuse and people dying from methadone overdoses.

Most recently, residents in Southwest Baltimore have protested a methadone clinic opened by the University of Maryland Medical Center, which runs that and other treatment services for the Baltimore City Office of Addiction Services. It was among several treatment programs that were relocated.

University officials said there was no connection between the study and its decision to move the Southwest Baltimore clinic.

The clinic, which serves more than 500 addicts, relocated in January to West Pratt Street after its former building on nearby West Fayette Street was torn down due to its poor condition, said a medical system spokeswoman, Mary Lynn Carver. The new location is accessible to public transportation and close to the university and medical center, she said.

Residents said they were caught by surprise when the clinic opened and said they believe there are too many substance-abuse treatment programs concentrated in their neighborhood. They say they are not against drug treatment.

But crime is a concern. The Southwest Partnership, a coalition of neighborhood groups in the area, posted a picture on its Facebook page of a man sleeping on the street in front of a bus stop. The caption next to the photo: "This should be the poster image for why more rehab services are not needed in the neighborhood."

Also on the page are charts with neighborhood crime data and promises to monitor crime levels because of the clinic.

"It's very frustrating that our community is the headquarters for drug addicts and mental health patients from all over," wrote one resident, Jane Buccheri, in an essay posted on the Facebook page.

In a phone interview, Buccheri, also a leader of the Southwest Partnership, said residents have no statistics to back up claims the clinic is causing increases crime. But residents know what they see, she said.

"After they have treatment they don't necessarily leave the neighborhood," she said. "It's hard to attract homeowners and quality businesses if there is a lot of loitering.

She added: "It has the potential to attract drug dealers. If you have this many potential clients why would you drive around?"

University of Maryland officials have met with residents to address their concerns, Carver said. She said that there were problems with loitering and security in the area before the clinic opened in January, but that she was not aware of issues because of any of the university's services.

A 73-year-old Baltimore man who uses the UM methadone clinic said that when he started using methadone to beat his heroin addiction he stopped committing crimes. The man, who didn't want to use his name because of the stigma attached to methadone users, said he used to pick pockets and rob people to support his habit.

Most methadone users are living good lives, he said. People oppose methadone clinics, he said, because of misperceptions.

"People don't know about methadone," he said. "A lot of people aren't aware of the good things that methadone does for patients."

A Pikesville methadone clinic operated by Joel Prell got caught up in a legal battle after Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz, then a county councilman, passed buffer legislation restricting the location of such clinics.

At the time, Kamenetz said he wasn't opposed to drug treatment programs but thought they should be located "in areas where they don't impact the surrounding areas." Prell's A Helping Hand clinic was located near a residential neighborhood.

The 2002 legislation required that methadone clinics and other state-licensed medical facilities that want to open less than 750 feet from homes in areas zoned for business and office use seek additional approval from the county.

Prell sued to challenge the law and to determine whether he should be forced to move. Residents picketed his house.

Prell eventually closed the facility and relocated to Woodlawn, where he hasn't had any opposition. For another center he runs in Westminster, he got council support before opening. That center is in a business park near an airport, not a residential neighborhood.

"It's fear of the unknown and stereotypes," he said. "What most people don't understand about drug treatment programs is that it works."

Prell said he works to keep order at his clinics, urging people to leave soon after taking the medication. He also said some may perceive patients as loitering when they just stop for a conversation on the way to their cars. But, he noted, not every clinic operates to the same standards as his.

Prell and others said methadone users come from all walks of life, especially as more people are becoming addicted to prescription pain killers after routine surgeries.

Boyd said she hopes her study opens the doors for more clinics to open and addicts treated.

"When they choose to go to treatment it shows they are willing to work to change," Bonci said. "We want to make sure people are not stigmatized because they seek treatment."

One in three new iOS games are Flappy Bird clones

Before being pulled from the Apple App Store and Google Play, Flappy Bird was the most popular mobile game. These days, there's no Flappy Bird, but the market is still being flooded by clones.

During a 24-hour period last week, 293 new games were uploaded into the Apple App Store, of which 95 were copycats of Flappy Bird, according to The Guardian.

"I’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions about what this says about the mobile gaming world in early 2014," The Guardian's Stuart Dredge said in his post analyzing Flappy Bird clones.

PHOTOS: Five ways the Samsung Gear 2 is better than its predecessor

Flappy Bird was a mobile game that challenged users to earn the highest score possible by propelling a bird between deadly pipes by tapping the screen.

The game was pulled in early February by Dong Nguyen, the game developer, who said he did not like how addictive Flappy Bird had become. At the time of its removal, the game was earning about $50,000 per day from advertisements.

As for the clones that are being uploaded daily, the premise of each game is the same. The difference is most games apply a different theme to the basic concept of Flappy Bird.

Among the countless clones, here are some notable options:

- Flappy Beard Hipster Quest, where users must navigate a full-bearded hipster between cans of PBR.

- Tappy Bieber, in which a Justin Bieber-like bird is the game's protagonist.

- Tiny Flying Drizzy, which features the head of rapper Drake flying through a cloudy world.

- Crappy Bird, a game that is perfectly fine with being a Flappy Bird ripoff.

- Flying Cyrus, a Flappy Bird/Miley Cyrus mash up, complete with Cyrus' trademark stuck-out tongue.

Guns, bulletproof vest found after 6-hour Uptown standoff

Tribune reporter

At least three guns, including a rifle with a scope, and a bulletproof vest were found after a nearly six-hour standoff that shut down part of the CTA Red Line, officials said.

The standoff began Monday night as investigators sought to question four men about a slaying in South Bend, Ind., officials said. Police took one of the men in custody at about 4:15 p.m., but the three others barricaded themselves in the building in the 4600 block of North Broadway.

They surrendered without incident just before 10 p.m., officials said.

Police recovered a .40-caliber handgun, a .45-caliber handgun, a 223 rifle with a scope and a bulletproof vest, according to Tom Ahern, a spokesman for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The men had not been charged as of late Tuesday.

Authorities said the men had been sought by South Bend police for questioning about the fatal shooting of a 31-year-old man on Nov. 18.

Deitrich Perkins was shot while sitting in his car and then tried to flee but collapsed in a nearby lot, according to South Bend Capt. Phil Trent. A woman in the car at the time was unharmed.

A 20-year-man, Thomas Mitchell, was charged in connection with the killing and was released on $10,000 cash bail, Trent said. South Bend police believe three other people were involved in the shooting.

An arrest warrant was issued today against one of the men arrested Monday evening, Ahern said.

During the six-hour standoff, the Red Line did not operate between Belmont and Berwyn avenues, while the Purple Line Express was shut down through the evening rush. Shuttle buses operated between Belmont and Berwyn.

'Sugar Man' director Malik Bendjelloul reportedly committed suicide

'Searching for Sugar Man' director Malik Bendjelloul took his own life, his brother says

The death of Malik Bendjelloul, the Oscar-winning Swedish director of the music documentary "Searching for Sugar Man," was a suicide, his brother has said.

Johar Bendjelloul told the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet that his brother took his own life at age 36 after a struggle with depression.

"I can confirm that it was suicide and that he had been depressed for a short period of time," he said, adding, "Life is not always so easy … I don't know how to handle it."

Bendjelloul's death on Tuesday was met with an outpouring of grief.

"As a filmmaker, [Bendjelloul] was an inspiration — someone who, despite his relative inexperience, was driven by a passion and determination to do justice to the great story he had found and to prove those he had doubted he could do it, of which there were too many, wrong. How he proved them wrong!" said Simon Chinn, producer of "Searching for Sugar Man," in a statement to The Times. "I feel honored to have gone on this journey with him, and I simply can't believe he is gone."

Sixto Rodriguez, the Detroit singer-songwriter who was the subject of Bendjelloul's documentary, told the Swedish newspaper Expressen, "Malik was a fantastic person." Rodriguez described Bendjelloul as "very friendly" and "unique."

"Searching for Sugar Man" chronicled the life, career and rediscovery of Rodriguez, who released two LPs in the 1970s before fading into obscurity. Over time a cult following built up around his music, and Bendjelloul's documentary traces the musician to Detroit and finds him alive and still performing. The popularity of the movie revitalized Rodriguez's career and reputation.

The film was the feature debut for Bendjelloul, who had directed a series of music-related documentaries for television. A surprise hit at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, the film would go on to win numerous awards, including the Oscar for documentary feature.

Flying Lotus announces new album 'You're Dead!' for October

While a new Flying Lotus album is exciting news, Angelenos may have more in store

The Los Angeles artist Flying Lotus announced that his next album -- “You’re Dead!” -- will be released on Oct. 7, his birthday.

He tweeted Tuesday morning: “Finally!So much went into this one. Lots of talented artists helped realize this vision. Looking fwd to sharing details and music soon.”

The Warp Records album will serve as a follow-up to his 2012 LP “Until The Quiet Comes.” Since the last release, FlyLo (his real name is Steven Ellison) has detailed bits over social media about the record’s potential art, aesthetics and included artists.

He revealed in December that his rapping alter ego, Captain Murphy, “is all over it.” He went on to agree that the album will have a jazz feel to it, and that he believes “it will b kind of jarring at first.” He admitted that he predominately used the music sequencing software Ableton in production.

(Although Herbie Hancock’s involvement has not been announced, Flying Lotus posted a Vine of himself in the studio alongside the jazz legend as well as Brainfeeder labelmate Thundercat.)

What Flying Lotus has announced, for the most part, is tour dates. He’s slated to play at FYF Fest in August, but he did not include a fall date in L.A. as part of his extensive tour.

To keep fans pleasantly on edge, he also tweeted Tuesday: “There's no LA date on the tour announcement because there's something extra special planned for home.”

In the Year of the Monkey, it's the time of the crisp dollar bill

Just days before the dawn of the Year of the Monkey, David Pham walked out of a Wells Fargo bank in Little Saigon — past tubs of purple holiday orchids — clutching $500 in crisp bills.

He spread them out across his palm, satisfied.

"When we give lucky money as a gift, it has to be new," Pham said. "The newness is part of the beginning of another year. If it's old and wrinkled, it's not special."

Join the conversation on Facebook >>

Pham, who owns a financial services firm in Westminster, will mark the Lunar New Year Monday by presenting the li xi in traditional red envelopes to youngsters in his inner circle as well as to clients.

In the run-up to the celebration — the biggest of the year for many in the Vietnamese and Chinese communities here — banks stock millions of dollars worth of new bills to fill their customers' needs.

At the Wells Fargo and a Bank of America branch on Bolsa Avenue in the heart of Orange County's Little Saigon, immigrants streamed in and out all afternoon, leaving with stacks of $50, $20, $10 and $2 bills (the most popular request).

"I like to have plenty of $2 bills … people like to collect it," said Pham, who planned to mail some money gifts to folks out-of-state to wish them safety and prosperity in the coming months.

Paul Lai, a manager at the BofA, said he ordered three shipments of $2 million each in January to make sure there would be enough new bills to meet the demand. By contrast, he said, the bank orders $200,000 to $300,000 in new bills for casual gift-giving at Thanksgiving, and about $500,000 for Christmas.

"It's a huge challenge for us for when they deliver the bills," he said. "It takes three hours for employees to sort and count the packages before putting money away in our vault."

In the weeks before Tet, as the Lunar New Year is known in Vietnamese, Lai works six days a week, supervising a staff of 17. No one is allowed to schedule a vacation before mid-February.

Little Saigon is a magnet for Vietnamese around the world who return to be with family during the holiday, Lai said. "They get off the plane or even Xe Do Hoang" — a regional bus service — and the first thing people do is head to the bank, he said.

Then there are those with plans to go to Vietnam, some of whom want to take up to $10,000 to help finance extended families.

"I always change money weeks ahead," said Son Ly, who had lost his job as a restaurant cook and was selling Tet decorations.

He stood outside the Thai Son grocery on Bolsa Avenue, surrounded by sticky rice cakes, red and gold lanterns and pots of mums and gladioluses. He also was hawking the red money envelopes, $1 for a packet of 6.

"All the traditions of the homeland, I will keep," he said, noting that he had more than 20 children to give money to — plus a few elders.

"The newness makes a difference," said Linh Pham, a teacher at Coastline Beauty College in Westminster. She had just been shopping at Trai Cay Ngon, a local fruit seller, where she bought cherimoyas to place on an ancestral altar.

"You should see their faces when they open the envelope and see old money," Pham said. "They frown and they're asking why you didn't take the time to prepare."

"That's so true," said her friend Ricky Tran, an engineer from Seattle who had just moved to Southern California. "These are like blessings. They're part of what you share from your good intentions to someone who you want to make happy and do well."

With Tran was family friend Maria Huynh, who at 90 rules as matriarch over nine children and their assorted children and grandchildren.

Asked about Lunar New Year spending, she chortled: "They're the ones who have to be gifting me — I'm old, I don't have money left."

Boxing News 2014: Miguel Cotto Could Face Gennady Golovkin, Marco Antonio Rubio

First Posted: Aug 25, 2014 02:23 PM EDT
Miguel Cotto Could Face Golovkin, Rubio

Miguel Cotto could defend his World Boxing Council middleweight title against the winner of the upcoming showdown between Gennady Golovkin and Marcos Antonio Rubio.

WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman said in a recent interview with World Boxing News that Cotto will have to defend his middleweight title against either Golovkin or Rubio next year.

"Miguel Cotto has an authorized major fight for May 2015, with the winner of that fighting against the winner of Golovkin versus Rubio," Sulaiman said.

It is still unknown at this point, however, who will be Cotto's opponent for the May 2015 bout. Saul "Canelo" Alvarez is reportedly being considered, but most analysts are convinced that the Puerto Rican will not fight a big-name opponent in his next title defense.

Abel Sanchez, Golovkin's trainer, said in an August 22 interview with The Sweet Science that they expect to get an offer from Cotto's camp once GGG wins against Rubio in their scheduled showdown on Oct. 18 where the WBA and IBF middleweight titles will be at stake.

"You have to think Golovkin's name will come up when Miguel begins opponent discussions, because Cotto is the so-called lineal middleweight champion," Sanchez said. "And if not, Cotto needs to answer why not, at least make Golovkin an offer, maybe we can turn it down, or maybe not."

Golovkin's name has come up in discussions about Cotto's next fight, as most fans are hoping that the two champions will agree to face each other in order to determine who is the best fighter in the middleweight division.

However, Rubio vowed to train hard for his upcoming fight against Golovkin because he is also aching to get a big fight, which includes a shot against Cotto.

"We are motivated to face Golovkin," Cotto said in a BoxingScene interview. "I'm a fighter who likes challenges. And it's not enough to just say that, you have to prove it, so I took this fight. I am very happy to face a great world champion. It is the biggest challenge that I've accepted in my career, and I plan to fight Golovkin in true Mexican style."

Victor Safforld

Burge Torture Victim Released from Prison

After 21 years in prison, including over a decade on Death Row, Victor Safforld, one of scores of African American men who have credibly claimed for years that they were tortured by convicted former Chicago Police Commander Jon Burge and his associates into fabricating confessions to crimes, is now a free man.

Safforld walked out of Cook County Jail and into the arms of joyous family members in late September after Cook County Circuit Court Judge Clayton Crane overturned the second of his two wrongful murder convictions earlier this year. Crane had ruled that both convictions resulted from false confessions that Burge's underlings illegally extracted by torturing Safforld and ordered new trials for Safforld in both cases.

Following that ruling, in May 2010, Safforld agreed to plead guilty in one of the two murder cases in exchange for an agreed sentence that would result in his release from prison this September.

As Safforld begins a new life, Burge awaits sentencing for his conviction on charges related to nearly three decades of systematic torture at Area 2 and 3 police headquarters in Chicago. A jury convicted Burge of federal perjury and obstruction of justice charges in June.

There are an additional 24 men still behind bars who, like Safforld, credibly claim that they too were convicted based on confessions extracted from them through torture. Locke Bowman, Legal Director of The Roderick MacArthur Justice Center, said his organization believes that each of these men deserves a full and fair hearing into his claim of torture and plans to engage in advocacy to achieve those hearings.

Updated - 09/27/2010

Stage Set for Burge Torture Victim to be Freed from Wrongful Imprisonment

Weeks before indicted former Chicago Police Commander Jon Burge faces trial in connection with his systematic torture of African-American suspects, one of his victims, Victor Safforld, reached an agreement with prosecutors that will soon end his 20-year trauma behind bars for crimes he didn't commit.

Prosecutors offered to drop charges against Safforld for the murder of Delvin Boelter in exchange for his guilty plea in another murder. Safforld, formerly known as Cortez Brown, was wrongfully convicted of both killings after Burge and his underlings tortured him into confessing to the murders.

Cook County Circuit Court Judge Clayton J. Crane nullified both convictions and condemned the unlawful acts of the police, setting the stage for new trials in both cases. Last week, Safforld acquiesced with the plea deal in order to obtain his freedom after two decades of wrongful imprisonment.

"Having endured 20 years of gross injustice behind bars, Victor's freedom was priority number one," said Locke Bowman, Legal Director of the Roderick MacArthur Justice Center, which with attorneys Flint Taylor, Joey Mogul and Sarah Gelsomino of the People's Law Office represent Safforld. "Awaiting and enduring two murder trials would have prolonged the agony of a man wrongfully imprisoned, so Victor did the right thing for himself and those who love him, by regaining the freedom he should have never been forced to relinquish."

During the 20 years that Safforld languished in prison, the sordid details of Burge's 30-year ring of torture came to light, thanks to persistent media scrutiny. The scandal led to episodic - and sometimes faulty - investigations by police and special prosecutors before the U.S. Attorney's Office in Chicago charged Burge last year with perjury for a false statement he made about his actions to investigators. The perjury trial will begin on May 24, 2010.

Updated - 05/24/2010

Second New Trial Awarded in Safforld Wrongful Murder Case

For the second time in a year, a Cook County Judge has voided a wrongful conviction of Victor Safforld, a victim of the 30-year torture spree orchestrated by indicted Chicago Police Commander Jon Burge.

Earlier this month, Cook County Judge Clayton Crane nullified Safforld's conviction in the 1990 murder of Devin Boelter, ruling Burge's subordinates had illegally tortured Safford into falsely confessing to the crime. Judge Crane concluded that his decision was compelled by his ruling last year invalidating Safforld's wrongful conviction in the 1990 murder of Curtis Sims.

Both convictions stemmed almost exclusively from the confessions that Safforld fabricated after Burge's underlings bludgeoned him with a flashlight and their fists. Safforld, formerly known as Cortez Brown, was given the death penalty for the Sims murder, a sentence that was commuted to life in prison in 1991. Safforld remains in an Illinois penitentiary today.

Crane's rulings order new trials for Safforld in both cases and negate the false confessions that were a primary basis of his convictions.

"This decision affirms again the critical importance of re-examining each and every one of the convictions that rests in whole or in part on a confession claimed to have been induced by torture or physical abuse by Burge's henchmen," said Locke Bowman, Legal Director of the Roderick MacArthur Justice Center, which with attorneys Flint Taylor, Joey Mogul and Sarah Gelsomino of the People's Law Office represent Safforld.

Safforld's case parallels the pattern in the wrongful convictions of countless other African-American men who were imprisoned - and in many instances remain there -- after succumbing to a spree of torture that Burge and his henchmen perpetrated from the early 1970s into the late 1990s.

Burge is scheduled to face trial on May 24, 2010 on charges that he perjured himself during statements he gave to investigators examining the atrocities that occurred Area 2 and 3 headquarters of the Chicago Police Department.

Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

Suit to clear title

I own 52.5% interest in 400 acres in Virginia. There are 10 heirs to 23.75% and one individual has quit claims totaling 23.75% that he got from 5 other heirs. The 10 heirs that have 23.75% are willing to sell if I bring suit to get a clear title, but the individual that owns 23.75% is nowhere to be found. We have tried everything to locate him including his SS #. Twice we have traced him to a mail box drop, and then he closes the box. Now we can't find him anywhere. We have been trying for the past 10 years. What do I need to do to get clear title if I can't find him?

Re: Suit to clear title

As part of the quiet title suit you would seek to have a court appointed guardian ad litem for the "heirs unknown or not found" you would advertise the property and issue pursuant to a court order. I have served as the guardian ad litem in these type of cases and have served as the attorney as well. I would be happy to talk to you about it if you have more questions.

Re: Suit to clear title

You would likely be filing a quiet title action in the jurisdiction where the property is located. Who is responsible for maintaining & paying taxes for the property? Facts may lead to an abandonment argument as well.
