Opulent. Lavish. Extravagant.

These are just a few of the words that come to mind on looking at the condo—the 5,500-square-foot condo—that two-time NBA champion Mario Chalmers has listed for sale in Miami.

That’s 5,500 square feet … in a condo. Our brains hurt just thinking about that.

(Per the fine folks at the Los Angeles Times, the asking price is $4 million.)

This is the world of celebrity real estate, and thus, a world of material excess.

The property, which the Miami Heat point guard purchased for $2.4 million from rap superstar Drake back in 2012, has five bedrooms and five full bathrooms—did we mention that this is a condo?—and sits perched high above Biscayne Bay and the emerald-green Atlantic Ocean in the celebrity playground of Miami.

Former famous rapper/singer owner aside, this places is flooded with features.

Floor-to-ceiling glass around the perimeter of the baller’s home seem to go on endlessly (seriously … the ceilings in here are so high that the photographer couldn’t get the entire view in the pictures).

There’s a chef-quality kitchen with all the requisite high-end cooking paraphernalia, a full-service wet bar, a den, a game room with billiards table, two laundry rooms (do celebrities create more dirty laundry than the rest of us?), four parking spaces (natch), and terraces that provide views of the water positively to die for

SMH: All-Female Prison Allows Male Guard To Videotape 274 Strip Search Procedures

Male Guard Allowed To Videotape Strip Search At Female Prison

A Massachusetts all-female prison is coming under fire after it was revealed that male guards were allowed to film mandatory strip searches of inmates.

via Think Progress

At the Western Massachusetts Regional Women’s Correctional Center, inmates who are transferred to a segregated unit are strip searched during the transfer. As part of this strip search, an inmate is required to “run her fingers through her hair, remove dentures if she wore them, raise both arms, lift her breasts, lift her stomach for visual inspection if she had a large mid-section, and remove any tampon or pad if she were menstruating. She was then required to turn around, bend over, spread her buttocks, and cough.”

Throughout the transfer, including the strip search, a corrections officer would videotape the entire process. Since mid-September of 2008, a male guard was assigned the task of videotaping these strip searches on 274 different occasions. Moreover, although prison policy stated that male officers should only record the inmate “from the neck up” while the strip searches are going on, a federal court determined that 68 percent of the videos show “some or all of the women’s genitals, buttocks, or breasts.”

On Tuesday, a federal trial court in Massachusetts held that it is “plainly unconstitutional to require a female inmate to expose herself, particularly to the extreme degree required during a strip search, in the presence of a male officer.” Even assuming that “the male officer doing the videotaping was able somehow to avert his eyes while using the camera,” something the defendants in this lawsuit claim that the officers actually did do, Judge Michael Ponsor explained that the search still violates the Constitution’s ban on unreasonable searches and seizures.

Today however Erica decided to get her chuckle on about “hoes” that are worried about her, presumably Scrap’s lil Compton boo thang…

Celebrity and plastic surgery seems to go together like peanut butter & jelly. Sometimes, though, that jelly looks sort of moldy and the peanut butter is hard and stiff. These celebrities did too much work to their faces (or used certain controlled substances, or who knows what happened) to develop some of the scariest faces ever. Hide your kids and take a look.

Poor Thang: 5-Year-Old Native American Kindergartner Suspended From School Because His Hair Was Too Long

Poor thang!

Kindergartner Suspended From School Because His Hair Was Too Long

Texas kindergartner was excited for his first day of school until he was sent home because his hair was too long.

Via The Grio reports:

Five-year-old Malachi Wilson is a member of the Navajo Nation, and according to his mother, not cutting their hair is part of their religion.

“Our hair is sacred to us; it makes us part of who we are,” April Wilson, Malachi’s mother, told a local CBS affiliate.

After the family contacted the Navajo Nation and provided sufficient paperwork stating Malachi was at least half Native American, the school reinstated him.

Ironically enough, F.J. Young Elementary’s mascot is the Seminole.

The school district says they were following guidelines stated in their student handbook and that once documentation was presented, the student was enrolled.

“It’s kind of heartbreaking because how do you explain to a five-year-old that he is being turned away because of what he believes in, because of his religion, because of what’s part of him; how do you explain that to him?” April said.

His mother is currently deciding whether to keep Malachi in the public school or pull him out to attend school elsewhere.

Do you think the poor baby should have been sent home for his long ponytail?

In a particularly gruesome story out of the Bronx, a Hunts Point man apparently decapitated himself in broad daylight today.

According to the New York Daily News, an unidentified 51-year-old man parked his 2005 Honda CRV on the street on Monday around 9:35 am. He reportedly looped a chain around his neck, secured it to a pole, and got back into his car.

Police told the newspaper that the man then stepped on the gas, decapitating himself. According to the Daily News, “The man’s head was left on the street by the pole after his vehicle hit a parked truck on the opposite side of the street.”

What A Ishtty Situation: Woman Sues Hospital After They Wrongfully Remove Her Rectum

You can’t be serious….

A Florida (of course) woman is asking for damages after doctors wrongfully diagnosed her with cancer and accidentally removed part of her rectum.

Whoopsie!

The Orlando Sentinel reports:

A Winter Park woman filed a lawsuit Tuesday asking a judge to order Florida Hospital to surrender records documenting a lab mix-up that resulted in a false cancer diagnosis and the removal of a section of her rectum.

In the suit, the woman is identified as Jane Doe.

“I really thought I was dying for many months,” she said in a phone interview.

The mix-up happened in December, according to the suit, either at Florida Hospital Winter Park, where she had gone for a routine colon exam, or in a laboratory at Florida Hospital’s main facility on Rollins Street in Orlando.

Someone mislabeled her tissue sample from the routine colonoscopy, mixing it up with one taken from a man with rectal cancer, the suit alleges.

As a result, on Jan. 14 she had surgery at Florida Hospital, and doctors removed part of her rectum.

A hospital spokeswoman, Samantha Kearns Olenick, said Florida Hospital does not comment on pending litigation.

The woman who had the surgery, a 68-year-old retiree, agreed to speak to the Sentinel on the condition that she not be named.

She had a colonoscopy because her fiancé insisted she needed one.

Afterward, when she was told she had a very aggressive form of cancer, she was stunned, she said.

Before the surgery, she could tell there was a problem with the diagnosis.

A series of pre-operative biopsies to try to pinpoint the cancer’s location kept coming back negative, she said.

She said she asked the hospital to double-check the labwork.

Personnel there said they did and that she did, in fact, have cancer, she said.

After the operation, lab work on the tissue the surgeon removed showed it to be cancer-free, she said.

On May 4 her doctor called, saying that DNA testing confirmed that there never had been any cancer, according to the suit.

 

Now that’s a HELLUVA mixup…

How much do you think she deserves in damages????
