Heath Ledger’s Death Was Due To Accidental Drug Overdose

According to the medical examiner’s office, Ledger took "prescribed therapeutic doses … or less" of each medication he ingested. However, the medications were not meant to be taken together. The cumulative effect was that the actor’s brain stem function that controls breathing was impaired and Ledger "fell asleep and never woke up."

"It would be inconceivable that one doctor would give one patient all of those medications," ABC News medical editor Dr. Tim Johnson said.

I hesitate to take 2 Tylenol, so I don’t know how anyone would 6 different medications and think that’s safe.

The Game Headed To Jail For Four Months

CIMG4176

The Game has decided to forego taking  felony charges to trial and will instead opt for a 4 month prison sentence. The Game received three charges for allegedly pulling out a gun during a pickup basketball game. In the upcoming debt issue of, “Monsta Magazine,” The Game states:

“The crazy part about this is that I’ve had guns before in my life.  But this time I didn’t have a gun. And because one person said I had a gun and coaxed his homies into saying that I had a gun, I’m in a predicament where I’m asking ‘do I want to spend another million dollars to fight this trial so who knows what jury’s gonna come in and say I’m guilty?  Or do I want to save my money, go sit down for four months and accept this felony they’re trying to give me for no reason?”

I think I would pay the money and avoid any jail time. Maybe this is promo for the album…

Who Are You Voting For On Super Tuesday?

35074087

Super Tuesday commonly refers to the Tuesday in early February or March of a presidential election year when the greatest number of states hold primary elections to select delegates to national conventions at which each party’s presidential candidates are officially nominated. More delegates can be won on Super Tuesday than on any other single day of the primary calendar, and accordingly, candidates seeking the presidency traditionally must do well on this day to secure their party’s nomination.
