"There was an altercation between me and a dude here in Tennessee and during that altercation, I lost a watch which came off my arm. But as far as someone taking my Bentley, my Bentley is sitting pretty without a scratch on it, right here in my driveway and my jewelry is right here too. I guess this is what people wanted to happen. I didn't get robbed for anything." http://allhiphop.com/blogs/news/archive/2007/11/26/18929664.aspx A RAPPER ROBBED?

HEALTH-US: Sick, Literally, of Fighting in Iraq
In Iraq itself, the military announced on Dec. 30 that soldier Michael Crutchfield of Stockton, California killed himself north of the capital, Baghdad. The day of his death, he e-mailed his foster brother and confidant, Johnny Sotello, to relate his pain to the remnants of his family still living in the area. "As you know, there are more people waiting for me to pull this trigger than there are waiting on my return to the states," Crutchfield wrote in a portion of the message, quoted by the Stockton Record. "I'm done hurting. All my life I've been hurting... end this pain," Crutchfield wrote at the end of his two-page message. For Kentucky mom Anita Dennis, the news of increased suicides is hardly surprising. In 2005, Dennis' son, Specialist Darrel Anderson, fled to Canada, saying he could no longer fight in what he called an "illegal war".
BARBARA WALTERS BLABS ABOUT BRITNEY SPEARS
Walters, den mother for the ABC gabfest "The View," said on the show that she recently chatted with Spears' longtime confidant Sam Lutfi, who spilled the beans about Britney's visits to the shrink. "He said that she has been to a psychiatrist and that she . . . is starting some kind of treatment," Walters said. "[Spears] is suffering from what he describes as mental issues which are treatable." Spears' mental health has been an issue over the past month since cops showed up at the pop wreck's home to rescue her kids Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. She had refused to give the kids back to their father - ex-husband Kevin Federline - after the pop tart's visitation was over. A judge stripped Spears of her parental rights days after the standoff. But in court papers released yesterday, the judge ruled last week that Spears could talk to her kids on the telephone.
Lib Dems propose tax credits reform
Welfare spokesman Danny Alexander said the system is over-complicated and can make things worse for families who are in the most financial need. "What we want is for the award to be fixed for a six month period, then it is recalculated," he told GMTV. "What it would mean is that people would have stability. "They would know the money they were getting for a six month period wouldn't be clawed back." Mr Alexander admitted that Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) was improving the system but said people could still be asked to pay back money if they had not noticed a mistake on the information HMRC had sent them. .
