KANYE WEST’S: “Ode” To Kim Kardashian

News

Worthy Magazine, reported that rumors were circulating about a possible romance brueing between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Well, they are no longer rumors! West is known for  therapeutically emoting in song, as he has on numerous tracks. But the lyrics from his latest song, THERAFLU are unusually clear in their meaning. In what can only be described as an attempt to kill two birds with one stone, Kanye addresses the loss of Amber Rose to upstart rapper-Wiz Khalifa and his feelings for the reality vixen Kim Kardashian. In response to claims that Kanye might have beef with Wiz, West states bluntly;

“AND THE WHOLE INDUSTRY WANT TO F*** YOUR OLD CHICK, ONLY N**** I GOT RESPECT FOR IS WIZ

AND I ADMIT I FELL IN LOVE WITH KIM, ROUND THE SAME TIME SHE FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM WELL THATS COOL, BABYGIRL DO YOUR THING; LUCKY I AINT HAD JAY DROP HIM FROM THE TEAM”

Ladies and Gentlemen, Kaye West-In his own words!

For non-sports fans, Chris Humphries, Kim K’s ex plays for the New Jersey Nets, which is partially owned by JAY-Z. That effectively makes Jay-Z, Chris’s boss, hence the phrase “Lucky I aint had Jay Drop Him From The Team”. Kim and Kanye were recently seen out at the Hunger Games together and Kim was later seen leaving Kanye’s love shack that night. As we reported Kanye recently flew the reality star out to his fashion show. Rumors have persisted that the two were flirting with the idea of dating. West’s new “Ode” to Kim confirms his feelings on the matter, but a mystery remains concerning how Kim feels about the mega-producer. Kanye has confirmed in deed, gifts and now song how he feels about Kardashian but she has yet to acquiesce or definitively rebuff his affection. In fact, Kardashian recently confessed to having a very liberal definition of the term Soul-Mate, when she expressed her belief that the soul needs different people at different phases in life. While other publications are pronouncing the duo an official item, we are still skeptical. It’s clear that if it were up to Kanye they would be an item. In fact we are pretty sure that Kanye has begun sketching out his designs for Kim’s next wedding gown (and a matching tux for himself). But we are wondering if Kim’s Soul Has any real need or desire, for Kanye West! It seems like she is the tentative partner in this courtship.

Worthy Readers, Do you think that Kim shares Kanye’s feelings? And if not, why isn’t she interested?

OBAMA TELLS GOLF CLUB: Let Women In

News

Augusta National Golf Club is quite possibly the most prestigious golf club in the nation. The exclusive club hosts the Master’s Tournament, Golf’s most coveted title. Most golfers would give anything to have one of the Club’s Green Jackets, reserved only for winners. A part of the club’s exclusivity is it’s restriction that women cannot be members of the famous club. This arcane policy has survived under the radar because of Augusta’s status as a private club with a closely guarded secret membership. However, the club’s membership became national news when the club refused membership to one of the Primary sponsors of the Master’s Tournament. Each year, Augusta gives a membership to the C.E.O of IBM which sponsors the Masters Tourney. Yet this year, Augusta has refused to issue a membership to the current C.E.O of IBM, who happens to be a woman. Despite giving a membership to IBM’s previous four C.E.O.’s Augusta withheld a similar offer to Ginni Rommety, who became C.E.O. in January.

The President issued a statement through his Press Secretary, expressing his belief that “”We are kind of long past the time when women should be excluded from anything”. “His personal opinion is that women should be admitted”. How Augusta will respond to the mounting pressure remains to be seen but as a private club, Augusta can discriminate. If the public is truly outraged at their policies, it will have to show Augusta that such behavior is unacceptable in America. The Master’s Tournament is advertising driven which means that if golf fans are truly offended by Augusta, there is only one way to effect their bottom line.

GOOGLE’S NEW SHADES: Fashion & Tech

News

 

We Told You They Were Coming and Now They Have Arrived (well, almost)! This could be the next IPAD and the next revolution in consumer technology.Google, the search engine giant that transformed the internet with its innovative search features, and the way we travel with Google Maps, is poised to transform the way we see the world. Google is known for tackling tremendous advances in technology in it’s mythical Google X-Labs. The most exciting invention coming out of the mythic, Roswell like-secret laboratory has been code named, Project Glass. The technical term for the technology is augmented reality and its applications are endless. Project Glass is Google’s attempt to create completely transparent glasses or shades that will display useful data and information within the field of vision of the person dawning the fashion accessory. They have often been called The Terminator Shades, as they bear a striking similarity in function to the Sci-Fi movie. Just as the terminator’s field of vision was filled with immensely interesting and eminently useful information about the wearabouts of Jon Conner, or the Identity of a stranger, or the vulnerability of an assailant the Google Glasses will feed you information about your surroundings by anticipating your needs. Imagine walking past a historic building and in the corner of your transparent frames, interesting tidbits about the landmark might pop up (like a VH1 video). Or perhaps you’re lost and in need of directions. Instead of whipping out your phone and walking with your head down, your glasses , un-beknownced to anyone around you, would display a totally unobtrusive arrow telling you which direction to walk in. Imagine going to company functions in which you are expected to recognize everyone by face. Instead of cramming all night, you might dawn your Google Shades and as each person approached, your glasses might feed you relevant information on them. The Google Glasses, will also function as a cell phone, allowing you to receive video calls right in the lens frame of your shades. The applications are endless. We at Worthy imagined the benefits to women’s safety if a feature could allow your shades to record and store the faces of people you encounter while out and about. What criminal would take the chance of assaulting a young woman wearing these shades. Project Glass is still in development. The glasses will likely be tested this summer by a very lucky set of consumers and rumors are suggesting that they could go on sale as early as the end of the year.

Worthy Readers, let your imaginations run wild and come up with a fantastic use for these augmented reality glasses, and post your idea below. Will You Consider Buying These?

 

HEAVY D CAUSE OF DEATH REVEALED!

News

Heavy D, one of Hip Hops Founding Fathers died of a Pulmonary Embolism, caused by a blood clot that likely travelled from his leg and to his heart-as a result of a long flight from Europe. The “Over Weight Lover” was performing at the Michael Jackson tribute concert in Wales (according to TMZ). Pulmonary Embolisms are often caused by long periods of inactivity or immobilization. It is unfortunate that such a benign activity was able to end the life of a true legend. Heavy D helped establish Hip Hop as a mainstream force with hits like “Now That We Found Love”, which he released with his signature group, Heavy D and The Boys. Later in his career, “Heave” continued to produce music. He was the principle force behind the first release off of NAS’S new album. The title track is called the Don, and Nas gives the legendary rapper final props.

SARAH PALIN TO HOST TODAY SHOW

News

Sarah Palin-will host NBC’s Today Show on Tuesday Morning. The hosting gig has Palin facing off against her infamous nemesis, Katie Couric, who will simultaneously be hosting ABC’s Good Morning America. The television world is writhing with anticipation, to see if Palin will finally get the best of the woman, Palin claims ambushed her in an interview during the 2008 Presidential contest. Sarah Palin began her career as a newscaster and its been suggested that she has longed to return to a similar role. Rumors once circulated about a potential Fox talk show but it never materialized. Considering, Palin’s popularity (amongst right leaning americans) it has seemed odd that Palin has been unable to find a spot on network (or even) cable television. However, her reputation has taken a significant blow since the 2008 race. Questions have been raised about her intellect and expertise and undercut her ability to sound off as an authority on any topic. NBC, is in a ratings fight and some, including Meredith Vieira ( the former host of the Today Show) explain the Palin invite as a desperate manuver for ratings. Some fans of the show are outraged, but others are anxious to witness the spectacle. NBC has been described as notoriously liberal but it’s willingness to include the most popular icon of modern conservatism has the makings for fantastic television.

Worthy Readers, will you watch Sarah Palin on Tuesday Morning?
