<p>A 74-YEAR-OLD man died after he accidentally swallowed his dentures during sex with a 62-year-old prostitute in Taiwan, reported Nanyang Siang Pau.</p>
<p>The man, known as Chen, had been living with a close female friend in New Taipei City after separating from his wife many years ago.<br />
The prostitute said she had sex with Chen for 30 minutes.</p>
<p>She said Chen had got up from the bed, paid her and was about to put on his clothes when he suddenly collapsed. “He fell back onto the bed. His eyes were open but he was not moving although I shook his body and tried to wake him up,” said the woman, who called the rescue team.</p>
<p>Chen was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. Doctors later found his dentures stuck in his throat.</p>

<p>Tony Cornelius, who worked alongside his father Don Cornelius on the iconic &#8220;Soul Train&#8221; and other shows, said his father placed a call to him on the day he died, reports CBS News.</p>
<p>Cornelius did not elaborate on the conversation, but said, “It was a call of urgency, and I came to his home immediately.”</p>
<p>He said his father was a private person and was &#8220;unhappy about some things&#8221; in his life. His father’s health, also, he said, was failing.</p>
<p>&#8220;My father was extremely private and unfortunately, when you&#8217;re a private person, you keep things inside,&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>The latest <a href="http://www.people-press.org/2012/01/18/unpopular-nationally-romney-holds-solid-gop-lead/">polling</a> by the Pew Research Center for the People &amp; the Press shows that <a title="MittRomney" href="http://projects.pewforum.org/rp2012/mitt-romney/">Mitt Romney</a> maintains a substantial lead nationally in the race for the GOP presidential nomination. The survey, conducted Jan. 11-16, finds few differences among GOP voters from various religious groups in terms of the candidate they would most like to see get their party’s nomination.<a href="http://www.pewforum.org/Politics-and-Elections/Religion-and-the-Presidential-Campaign-January-Update.aspx#_ftn1"><sup>1</sup></a></div>
<div>
<p>During the race for president, a candidate&#8217;s religion can make or break them in the eyes of the voter.</p>
<p>Romney’s strongest support in a matchup against Obama continues to come from evangelical voters; three-quarters of evangelicals (76%) say they would vote for Romney, compared with 19% who favor Obama. When this question was asked in November, 70% of white evangelicals expressed support for Romney while 26% favored Obama.</p>
<p>Obama’s strongest support among the religious groups analyzed comes from voters who are religiously unaffiliated; nearly two-thirds of this group (64%) support Obama while 28% prefer Romney. These figures are little changed over the past two months. (The current poll included too few interviews with black Protestant registered voters to permit analysis of their voting intentions.)</p>
</div>
<p>Whenever he was asked about the impact of his race on the 2008  election, President Obama would often say that he presumed his race  would cost him some votes, and maybe gain him some votes too just like a  lot of other characteristics over which he had little control such as  how he looked and where he was from. Of course as we all later learned  there was another trait President Obama also had little control over  that had, and continues to have, the potential to cost him and other  candidates even more votes than race: perceived religious beliefs. The  fact that <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/18/AR2010081806913.html">1 in 5 Americans</a> believe President Obama is not a Christian and view that as a  justification for questioning his leadership and patriotism represents a  political land mine for the President, and increasingly for his 2012  GOP opponent as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="paragraph3">Fort Lauderdale Police said Thursday they arrested a  41-year-old man after he lured a young girl into his home with the  promise of food, then groped her. Raymond Vincent of Fort  Lauderdale groped the girl Sunday, but she told detectives that Vincent  also molested her two other times in 2011, police said. Fort Lauderdale Police arrested Vincent on Tuesday, and he has been charged with three counts  of lewd and lascivious molestation of a person under 12 and is being  held at the Broward County Main Jail, they said.</p>

<p id="paragraph5">When he was being interviewed by detectives, Vincent claimed that he is a youth pastor at a Pompano church, police said. Because of that,  “investigators are concerned that there may be other victims who have  yet to come forward to the police,” and detectives are also seeking the  public’s help in “identifying the church where Vincent is a youth  pastor,” police said.</p>
<p>Police urge anyone whose children may have had inappropriate contact  with Vincent to call Detective Felicia Barnwell at 954-828-5533 or  Detective Lorette Innocent-Doles at 954-828-513</p>

<p>Moore has a history of family violence arrests, and is being held on $250,000 bond. Court records show the couple had been arguing over custody, child support and the paternity of their 4-year-old twin daughters. Moore had custody of the girls but recently found out he’s NOT their biological father.</p>

The schools are agreeing to step up training for  medical students in how to treat PTSD and traumatic brain injury,  increase research into the conditions and share new information and best  practices.</div>
<div>Make sure to follow Elev8 on <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/Elev8official">twitter.</a></div>
<div>Aides said Mrs. Obama will  emphasize that while most troops come home from combat with few or no  mental health issues, those who do should not see it as a source of  shame or weakness.</div>

<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>The Defense Department  estimates that nearly 213,000 military personnel have suffered traumatic  brain injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2000. An  earlier report by the Rand Corp. think tank estimated that 300,000  veterans of both conflicts suffered post-traumatic stress disorder or  major depression. Fewer than half had sought treatment for PTSD over the  preceding year and nearly 60 percent of those reporting a probable  brain injury weren&#8217;t evaluated by a physician for one.</div>
<div>&#8220;This is a long-term issue for the nation,&#8221; said Brad Cooper, the executive director of Joining Forces.</div>
<div>There  is no new funding associated with the initiative, and medical schools  will make their own decisions about how to integrate more training and  research into PTSD and traumatic brain injury into their curriculum.</div>

<p>Besides the  prison time, U.S. District Judge Terry Hatter on Monday ordered Iruke to  pay back $6.7 million with his conspirators and serve three years of  &#8220;supervised release&#8221; once he gets out of prison, the U.S. Justice  Department said in a news release.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Former fashion model Nicole Weider is leading a  Change.org campaign demanding that Cosmopolitan Magazine be sold in a  non-transparent wrapper to adults. She feels it does nothing but promote disorder.</p>
<p>Read:<a title="Pastor Opens A Tattoo Parlor In Church" rel="bookmark" href="http://elev8.com/news/orethawinston/pastor-opens-a-tattoo-parlor-in-church/"> Pastor Opens A Tattoo Parlor In Church</a></p>
<p>The petition has already gained nearly 18,000 signatures since its  launch. Weider hopes to get the attention of the magazine&#8217;s biggest  advertisers and the Federal Trade Commission chairman. “I have girls writing me letters how Cosmo has negatively affected  them. One of the biggest problems young girls face today is “the pressure to be sexual and sexy,”” Weider told The Christian Post. She said he has received over 200  letters from girls about pressure they feel from the magazine to have  sex at a young age.&#8221;</p>
<p>“With our Change.org petition, we simply ask that the magazine admit its  content is not appropriate for young girls, stop putting teens on the  cover and put the magazine in a non-transparent wrapper. It’s that  simple. If you aren’t marketing to teen girls, then this request  shouldn’t be an issue.”</p>
<p>Read:<a title="What? Pastor &amp; Wife To Spend 24 Hours In Bed On Church Roof" rel="bookmark" href="http://elev8.com/news/orethawinston/what-pastor-wife-to-spend-24-hours-in-bed-on-church-roof/"> What? Pastor &amp; Wife To Spend 24 Hours In Bed On Church Roof</a></p>
<p>To spotlight this, Weider pointed out that they most recently featured  17-year-old Dakota Fanning on this month’s cover, right alongside a  cover line, “Too Naughty to Say Here. But You Have to Try This Sex  Trick.”</p>
<p>Disney favorite 19-year-old Selena Gomez has also been reported as  the cover model on an upcoming issue. Weider asks, “If the magazine is  truly not targeting an underage audience, why would it put teen heroines  on the cover?” She also cited the magazine’s new 2012 design,  featuring less text, bigger font and brighter colors as proof that it is  targeting young girls. Overtly adult content in magazines  requires that publications be sold in non-transparent wrappers and only  to consumers who are over the age of 18. Yet Cosmo, with cover articles  featuring graphic sexuality and sex tips, claims that its publication is  targeted to readers who are of age.</p>

<p>Weider explained, “In recent  issues the editors of Cosmo have urged their readers to sext,  participate in anal sex, accept cheating boyfriends, have public sex,  try three-somes, and visit pornographic websites with the URLS  conveniently provided. This subject matter should not be available to  minors.” Expressing frustration with the magazine, she said on her  website, “As most of you know I’m a strong Christian; I really believe  in God and I also believe in the devil and I believe in the enemy. This  magazine has the devil written all over it because he wants to kill and  destroy young girls&#8217; hearts and minds and cosmopolitan is just a vessel  for that.” You can check out her protest and how you can act on:<a href="https://www.change.org/petitions/cosmopolitan-is-aggressively-marketing-explicit-porn-tips-to-minors-put-cosmo-in-a-non-transparent-wrapper-and-sold-to-adults-only"> Anti-Cosmo petition</a></p>
<p>The American Psychological Association’s 2010 study, titled “Report of  the APA Task Force on the Sexualization of Girls,” suggests that the  proliferation of sexual images of girls in the media is harming and  impeding healthy development, self-image and body-image, and is now  linked to common mental health problems including eating disorders, low  self-esteem and depression.</p>

<p>Well did you say it or not? Thats the question thats been plaguing Republican Presidential hopefull Rick Santorum ever since a controversial video went viral of him at a town hall meeting in Iowa.  In the video Santorum is asked a question about welfare dependency and it sounds as if his partial response to the question was: &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to make Black people&#8217;s lives better by giving them someone else&#8217;s money.&#8221;  Santorum has been backpedaling in recent days and recently in an interview with CNN said: &#8220;I&#8217;m pretty confident I didn&#8217;t say black, what I think I, I started to say a word and jumbled it together&#8230;.. I started to say something else but it wasn&#8217;t black&#8221; </p>
<p>Well theres a good thing we have video in 2012.  Check out CNN&#8217;s Anderson Cooper in this video as he investigates further into what Rick Santorum really said.  <a href="http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2012/01/06/ac-kth-santorum-race-issues.cnn">Click here for the video</a></p>

<p>“Shocked, crushed, emotionally devastated, and yet there was  something down inside of me and in her mother as well, that said we have  to rise above the trauma,” Jakes said on the Roland Martin Report  describing his first reaction to the news.After expressing his initial feelings of disturbance over the incident, Jakes concluded that “love overrides everything.”</p>
<p>When news of the pregnancy spread, the prominent pastor also encountered difficulty emanating beyond his home.</p>

<p>“We got letters, we got blogs, we got stuff that was lies and garbage told about us. We had the press swarming the church. “It wasn’t about being embarrassed, it wasn’t about protecting my image.  I cared nothing about that. I cared about what you see sitting right  here,” referring to his daughter, Sarah Henson, as he placed a hand on  her back to comfort her.</p>
