U.S. Poverty Could Reach Its Highest Level Since the 60s!
The amount of people at the poverty level could rise to the highest amount seen since the 1960s.Suburbs just like urban areas are seeing an increase in poverty as well. Hit the jump!
Steph Bassanini
WASHINGTON — The ranks of America’s poor are on track to climb to levels unseen in nearly half a century, erasing gains from the war on poverty in the 1960s amid a weak economy and fraying government safety net.
Census figures for 2011 will be released this fall in the critical weeks ahead of the November elections.
The Associated Press surveyed more than a dozen economists, think tanks and academics, both nonpartisan and those with known liberal or conservative leanings, and found a broad consensus: The official poverty rate will rise from 15.1 percent in 2010, climbing as high as 15.7 percent. Several predicted a more modest gain, but even a 0.1 percentage point increase would put poverty at the highest level since 1965.
Poverty is spreading at record levels across many groups, from underemployed workers and suburban families to the poorest poor. More discouraged workers are giving up on the job market, leaving them vulnerable as unemployment aid begins to run out. Suburbs are seeing increases in poverty, including in such political battlegrounds as Colorado, Florida and Nevada, where voters are coping with a new norm of living hand to mouth.

Galaxy S III Moves 10 Million Units In 2 Months
In surprising news Samsung’s newest flagship device the Galaxy SIII has moved more than 10 million devices in less than 2 months after it release. How many units will the Galaxy SIII move before the quarter is over???
Samsung’s newest Android flagship smartphone — the Galaxy S III — has surpassed 10 million sales in less than two months after going on sale, selling at a rate predicted by the company just last month, Samsung president Shin Jong-kyun (JK Shin) has revealed.
The Samsung executive shared the milestone with Korean new agency Yonhap News (without giving exact numbers), which translates roughly into 190,000 Galaxy S III devices being sold each day and reaching the figure in less than half the time of its predecessor — the Galaxy S II.
In June, Shin said that he expected the Galaxy S III to reach 10 million units sold in July, seeing an added boost as the handset went on sale in the US and other significant markets. By the end of the month, the device will be on sale via 296 carriers in 145 countries worldwide.
In terms of comparative figures, the Samsung Galaxy S II chalked up 3 million pre-orders. The company recently revealed that it and predecessor the Galaxy S, have together passed 50 million sales across the planet.
Samsung now counts itself as the biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world, becoming the chief rival to Apple in terms of sales and demand for devices.
The Korean company is rumoured to be scheduling an August launch for its next-generation Galaxy Note, as it looks to tempt consumers around the time that Apple is rumoured to be releasing its next iPhone.

BATMAN DARK KNIGHT $162 Million @ BOX OFFICE 1st Weekend
Despite the mass shooting at a Colorado movie theater during a midnight screening of “The Dark Knight Rises,” the film took in about $162 million in North America, the New York Times reported today.
Warner Bros. announced it would hold off reporting the film’s opening grosses until Monday, but the information was leaked to several media outlets.
“Out of respect for the victims and their families,” the studio said in a statement to ABC News. “Warner Bros. Pictures will not be reporting box office numbers for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ throughout the weekend. Box office numbers will be released on Monday.”
This is an unprecedented move because the practice of releasing box office numbers for an opening weekend is standard for Warner Bros. and most major Hollywood studios.
James Holmes, 24, is accused of opening fire on unsuspecting moviegoers Friday during a sold-out midnight screening of the new “Batman” film at a mall in Aurora, Colo., killing 12 people and injuring 58 others. Police said the alleged shooter was wearing a gas mask and was dressed in body armor.
“My heart aches and breaks for the lives taken and altered by this unfathomably senseless act,” said Anne Hathaway in a statement, according to People Magazine. Hathaway plays Catwoman in the film. “I am at a loss for words how to express my sorrow. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families.”
“Words cannot express the horror that I feel. I cannot begin to truly understand the pain and grief of the victims and their loved ones, but my heart goes out to them,” Christian Bale, who plays Bruce Wayne/Batman in “The Dark Knight Rises,” said in a statement Saturday.

Ronaldinho Soccer star loses $750,000 Coke deal for drinking Pepsi
All soccer superstar Ronaldinho wanted to do was quench his thirst when he sipped from a can of Pepsi during a press conference. But that seemingly innocuous gesture revived a longstanding feud between soft drink giants Coco Cola and Pepsi.
According to The Atlanta Journal Constitution, the Atlanta-based Coke reacted to Ronaldinho’s two-timing by yanking the Brazilian star’s lucrative $750,000 sponsorship. That’ll teach him to be faithful.
“The fact that the player has appeared with a can of Pepsi was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” Coca-Cola marketing chief Marcelo Pontes told the newspaper. “The sponsorship had become embarrassing.”
The press conference was held to promote his new team, Atletico Mineiro, of which Pepsi is a sponsor. Coke’s $750,000 sponsorship deal with Ronaldinho was scheduled to run through 2014.

It’s Moving Day for Evander Holyfield
Former heavyweight boxing champ recently lost his sprawling $10 million dollar mansion to foreclosure. The 54,000 sq. ft. Fayetteville, Georgia mansion sold at a loss for $7.5 million on the courthouse steps on March 6, according to TMZ.com.
According to his senior advisor, Holyfield was “confident that an amiable agreement” would be reached so he could stay in his home that was fit for a king. But he lost that fight. So today was moving day.
Moving men were busy loading the trucks with Holyfield’s worldly possessions.
There’s no word on where Holyfield is moving to.
The towing company, Rhino Auto Towing, are in the business of transporting, not repossessing autos to relieve tax liabilities.
The mansion was snapped up by JP Morgan bank which held the mortgage. A portion of the sale will go toward Holyfield’s $250,000 tax bill to the IRS.
Holyfield owed more than $14 million dollars on the house — plus $2500 in foreclosure costs. The mansion boasts 109 room and sits on 235 acres which includes 2 private lakes and a baseball field. The crib even comes with a designer address — Evander Holyfield highway.
In addition to numerous close calls with foreclosures in the past, Holyfield still owes $320,000 in late child support payments. He is no longer a heavyweight contender but, according to Wikipedia, Holyfield has at least 11 mouths to feed.

The West Virginia University grad, who earned a spot on Rap-Up.com’s 10 Artists to Watch, shows off his sharp skills and style as he performs the T-Minus-produced song against the beautiful backdrop of Venice. The 23-year-old lyricist navigates the canals in a gondola and models his designer wardrobe in cafes and colorful alleyways. But shooting the Rex Arrow-directed clip wasn’t as glamorous as it looks.
“Savings accounts were emptied, frequent flier miles were used up, and nine days were spent adventuring throughout four countries,” explained D-WHY. “We slept on floors, got cursed at in foreign languages by hotel maids, spent the night in airports, dealt with border security, and of course, got crazy looks while shooting all of the videos completely guerilla-style with no permits or licenses.
