Rhythm City actor, Jamie Bartlett, best known for his role as the shady, conniving, and malevolent television character ?David Genaro? was arrested on Saturday night for drink-driving.

Is Chelsea really as good as the results suggest?
Chelsea have started the season in white hot form, literally scoring goals for fun. Every player looking like a well oiled cog in their ruthless pulverizing machine. The boys in blue are making it look so easy as they have brushed teams aside scoring 21 goals in their first 5 games and only conceding once. At times this has been done without their talismanic Lampard and Terry.
Malouda has found fantastic form netting 5 times already and Essien is showing even more to his game as he is now bursting forward to score, Frank Junior must be worried about getting back into the side when he recovers from injury. You will always know when Chelsea are dominating when Ashley Cole is playing as a left winger spending most of his time in the opposition half.
With the beginning of the season starting to get into full swing, as teams look to banish the question marks hanging over them Chelsea look to be the only ones to have done this.
Manchester United look extraordinarily short of depth and need Berbatov to retain his current form. Whereas on the other side of the city at Eastlands there is a wealth of talent, so much so they struggled to select their 25 man squad but they still don?t look like a ?team?.
Liverpool have got themselves a good man in charge in Roy Hodgson but have a weak team having lost Mascherano out of the middle. Over at the Emirates, Arsenal are the same old same old, are they big enough? Are they tough enough?
Chelsea seem to look unstoppable but their real test starts this week having had an easy start to the season, only scoring 4 at home to Blackpool was somewhat of a disappointment. This weekend they will be ready to try and blow Manchester City out of the water followed by Arsenal and Aston Villa.
Let?s not start awarding them the League just yet, but would you bet against them winning those games? I don?t think we can judge Chelsea before 10 games in. At the moment they?ve played some decidedly weak teams such as Wigan, West Ham and West Brom. A lot of people think it?s easy to look very good against this quality of opposition, but then you can only beat what?s in front of you. That?s not to say they won?t still be top after 10 games but they will have played a more demanding outfits such as the above mentioned City and Arsenal.
The loss they sustained against Newcastle (Carling Cup) was a tremendous viewing experience and Chelsea were a posts width from winning it with ten men and a severely weakened side. I think it was one the Gods were just on Newcastle side for. Unfortunately for the rest of the Premier League this may well just give Chelsea more drive and focus in the league without the cup distractions.
I think it?s fair to say Chelsea will have a ?bad? patch every team does at some stage in the season. The other teams have got to be ready to pounce if and when this happens.

My Problem with Network Marketing Work from Homes
Some of us have had a friend or acquaintance tries to sell you vitamins, herbs, homeopathic remedies, weight-loss powders, or other health-related products or in some instances Hotel discount Cards o.
Thousands? have signed up as distributors for multilevel companies that market such products from person to person. Often they have tried the products, concluded that they work, and become suppliers to support their habit.Sometimes they have been lured by the gospel of? “becoming rich” which is often preached at their presentations.
Multilevel marketing (MLM also called network marketing or? referral marketing ) is a form of direct sales in which independent distributors sell products, usually in their customers’ home or by telephone. In theory, distributors can make money not only from their own sales but also from those of the people they recruit to be members or distrubutors. Earnings are in most cases according to the number of products you have sold and the number of members you have recruited. However MLM differs from a pyramid scheme because there is a product and earnings are not solely based on the number of people you recruit.
I’m a person one who believes that MLM works in very cases. Tt’s for real go-getters…. the kind of person who can recruit, train, and most of all, motivate.? You know…. “People People.”? But most of them don’t tell you that.? They tell you there’s “no personal selling,” “no phone calls,” “no recruiting,” and “no personal contact.”
An average person for instance has direct contact with probably 16 – 30 people daily whom he/she really really knows and of these maybe one or two can bail you out for drink driving on Wednesday night (just assumptions). So strictly speaking those are the people you are assured of buying the product from you without a sales pitch. Assuming you are able to sell your product and recruit? all your acquaintances, your obvious next target is friends of friends which in most people for most people is not more than a hundred people. So strictly speaking one will run out of a market for the said products and members to recruit after a while.
My Problem with MLM
They present themselves as simple and easy and in most cases promise people to become rich.Many people work very hard on their day jobs, spending their time and energy on the pressing tasks of the day. And yet they often find that even after all their hard work, they still are not where they want to be financially and they end up being caught in the MLM web.
The majority of the products are expensive than similar products you find on the shelf and therefore not easy to sell
You pay for phone calls? printing.? You pay for postage.? You pay advertising? In a lot of programs, you’re even the one buying all the products!. pay pay pay pay, that’s the name of the game. In other words, you are paying for their overheads.
Do people really need these health supplements ?? I would rather invest in buying healthy food. That’s a subject of another day.
Conclusion
The number of unsuccessful MLM companies far outnumbers the successful ones.? at the end of the day its a matter of choice. One should research the company thoroughly, the disadvantages and advantages before making a decision on weather to join.

Gmail adds security with a six digit verification code
Google? began rolling out a new security feature on Monday to provide more security for Gmail users. Account holders will be asked to enter a six digit code sent to their phones when they log in the first time from an unknown computer. This feature offers an additional layer of security and will make it harder for hackers to use brute force methods or social engineering to guess a user’s password. It will not, however, prevent a wife or husband from gaining access to their partner’s account if they have access to their mobile phones.
This move follows a similar security feature introduced by Facebook several weeks ago that ask users to authenticate an unknown computer using a combination of quizzes followed by a text message to a mobile phone if Facebook detects an unknown IP or computer by checking session cookies.

all that ****’s for the birds
You ain’t nothin’ but a vulture
Always hopin’ for the worst
Waiting for me to **** up
You’ll regret the day when i find another girl yeah
That knows just what i need
She knows just what i mean
When i tell her keep it drama free
Chuckin’ up them deuces
I told you that i’m leaving
Deuces
I know you mad but so what?
I wish you best of luck
And now i’m finnin’ throw them deuces up
I’m on some new ****
I’m chuckin’ my deuces up to her
I’m moving on to something better better better
No more tryin’ to make it work
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
Used to be valentines together all the time
Thought it was true love but you know women lie
It’s like i sent my love with a text two times
Call ’cause i care but i ain’t gettin’ no reply
Tryna see eye to eye but it’s like we both blind
**** it let’s hit the club i rarely sip but pour me some
’cause when it’s all said and done
I ain’t gon’ be the one that she can always run to
I hate liars **** love i’m tired of tryin’
My heart big but it beat quiet
I don’t never feel like we vibin’
’cause every time we alone it’s a awkward silence
So leave your keys on the kitchen counter
And gimme back that ruby ring with the big diamond
**** is over what you trippin’ for? i don’t wanna have to let you go
But baby i think it’s better if i let you know
I’m on some new ****
I’m chuckin’ my deuces up to her
I’m moving on to something better better better
No more tryin’ to make it work
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
Look my shorty always on some **** like chicago
So i flip that middle finger and the index finger follow
Deuces we ain’t got no future in tomorrow
I’m a **** so it shouldn’t be that hard to swallow
The other chick i’m with never complain
She make wanna leave the one i’m with usher raymond
Probably didn’t register don’t trip later on it will
Shorty full of drama like gangsta grizzles
I finally noticed it it finally hit me
Like tina did ike in the limo it finally hit me
I got a new chick and she ain’t you
She paula patton thick she give me dj vu
And all that attitude i don’t care ’bout it
But all that **** i do for her you gon’ hear ’bout it
Breezy rep two up two down
But i’m just puttin’ two up chuckin’ up the deuce now
I’m on some new ****
I’m chuckin’ my deuces up to her
I’m moving on to something better better better
No more tryin’ to make it work
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
You make me wanna say bye bye
Say bye bye say bye bye to her
