CAPITAL TRAGEDY! DC Navy Yard Shooting 12 DEAD Many more injured!
 As many as two gunmen launched an attack Monday morning inside the Washington Navy Yard, spraying gunfire on office workers in the cafeteria and in the hallways at the heavily secured military installation in the heart of the nation's capital, authorities said. At least 12 people were killed plus the one confirmed shooter in the attack.

One gunman was dead after he fired on a police officer, and police hunted for a second possible attacker who may have been disguised in a military-style uniform, authorities said. The gunman, identified as Aaron Alexis, 34, of Fort Worth, Texas, was killed by police during the confrontation.
"We are confronting yet another mass shooting," President Obama said Monday during remarks that were intended to address the financial crisis. "And today it happened on a military installation in our nation's capital."

A law enforcement official told CBS News' Pat Milton the shooter was discovered with an AR-15 assault rifle and a shotgun with him and was wearing dark blue clothing
CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports that Alexis was also found with a sidearm that authorities believe may have come from one of the Navy Yard's security officers.

Investigators said they had not established a motive for the shooting rampage, which unfolded less than four miles from the White House. As for whether it may have been a terrorist attack, Mayor Vincent Gray said: "We don't have any reason to think that at this stage."
The FBI took charge of the investigation.
While Alexis' motive is still not clear, his military record showed that he is a former avionics electrician with the U.S. Navy. He had been arrested at least twice previously: once in Seattle for malicious mischief, and once in Fort Worth in 2010 for discharging a firearm in public. His home of record in his military record was listed as New York City.

Alexis enlisted in the military May 5, 2007, and received initial training outside Chicago before eventually serving in Fort Worth, according to his record. During his time in the Navy, he was awarded a Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and a National Defense Service Medal.

On Monday, Alexis was carrying an ID card belonging to Rollie Chance, who was placed on administrative leave last October. Chance told officials he does not know Alexis.
Obama: Washington Navy Yard shooting a "cowardly" act
Mr. Obama mourned the shooting and promised "whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible."

In addition to the dead, at least three people were wounded.
The area where the rampage took place, known as Building 197, was part of the headquarters for Naval Sea Systems Command, which buys, builds and maintains ships, submarines and combat systems. The yard is a labyrinth of buildings protected by armed guards at gates and metal detectors, and employees have to show their IDs to come and go.
About 3,000 people work at the headquarters, many of them civilians. As a result of the incident, the Navy has issued an "Order to Account" for all Navy uniformed personnel, both active duty and selected Reserve, assigned to commands in the D.C. metro area.

Witnesses described a gunman opening fire from a fourth-floor overlook, aiming down on people in the cafeteria on the main floor. Others said a gunman fired at them in a third-floor hallway. It was not clear whether the witnesses on different floors were describing the same gunman.
Around midday, police said they were searching for two men who may have taken part in the attack — one carrying a handgun and wearing a tan Navy-style uniform and a beret, the other armed with a long gun and wearing an olive-green uniform. Washington Police Chief Cathy Lanier said it was unclear if the men were members of the military.

But later in the day, police said in a tweet that the man in the tan uniform had been identified and was not involved in the shooting.
It was not immediately clear whether the number of dead included a gunman.

As emergency vehicles and law enforcement officers flooded streets around the complex, a helicopter hovered overhead, nearby schools were locked down and airplanes at nearby Reagan National Airport were grounded so they would not interfere with law-enforcement choppers.
A short distance away, security was beefed up at the Capitol and other federal buildings, but officials said there was no known threat.
Todd Brundidge, an executive assistant with Navy Sea Systems Command, said he and other co-workers encountered a gunman in a long hallway on the third floor. The gunman was wearing all blue, he said.
"He just turned and started firing," Brundidge said.

Terrie Durham, an executive assistant with the same agency, said she also saw the gunman firing toward her and Brundidge.
"He aimed high and missed," she said. "He said nothing. As soon as I realized he was shooting, we just said, 'Get out of the building.'"
Rick Mason, a civilian program-management analyst for the Navy who works on the fourth floor of the building, said a gunman was firing from the overlook in the hallway outside his office.

Shortly after the gunfire, Mason said, someone on an overhead speaker told workers to seek shelter and later to head for the gates at the complex.
Patricia Ward, a logistics-management specialist, said she was in the cafeteria getting breakfast.

"It was three gunshots straight in a row — pop, pop, pop. Three seconds later, it was pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, so it was like about a total of seven gunshots, and we just started running," Ward said.
Ward said security officers started directing people out of the building with guns drawn.

One person died at George Washington University Hospital of a single gunshot wound to the left temple, said Dr. Babak Sarani, director of trauma and acute care surgery. A police officer and two civilian women were in critical condition at Washington Hospital Center, said Janis Orlowski, the hospital's chief operating officer.
Orlowski said the police officer was in the operating room with gunshot wounds to the legs. The police chief said the officer was wounded when he engaged the shooter who later died.

One woman at the hospital had a gunshot wound to the shoulder. The other had gunshot wounds to the head and hand.
Adm. Jonathan Greenert, chief of naval operations, was at the base at the time the shooting began but was moved unharmed to a nearby military installation.

Anxious relatives and friends of those who work at the complex waited to hear from loved ones.
Tech Sgt. David Reyes, who works at Andrews Air Force Base, said he was waiting to pick up his wife, Dina, who was under lockdown in a building next to where the shooting happened. She sent him a text message about being on lockdown.

"They are under lockdown because they just don't know," Reyes said. "They have to check every building in there, and they have to check every room and just, of course, a lot of rooms and a lot of buildings."

Naval Sea Systems Command is the largest of the Navy's five system commands and accounts for a quarter of the Navy's entire budget. Only security personnel were allowed to be armed on the grounds, but that can include uniformed security officers, civilian contractors and members of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
Cmdr. Timothy Jirus said he has a clearance that would allow him to carry a gun on the campus. He has a secure access card that he swipes to get into the headquarters office.

"I think the security is really good, up until today," Jirus said.

Everyone must show an ID to get through a main gate, and at the building entrance, everyone must swipe a badge to pass through either a door or gate, depending on the entrance.

That "makes me think it might have been someone who works here," Mason said
The Navy Yard has three gates, according to its website. One is open around the clock and must be used by visitors. A second gate is only for military and civilian Defense Department employees. The third gate is for bus traffic.
The Navy Yard is part of a fast-growing neighborhood on the banks of the Anacostia River in southeast Washington, blocks from the Nationals Park baseball stadium.

SERIOUSLY!?! Infamous Drake, Jay Z, & Miguel Memes Become Polo Shirts
Drake, Miguel, and most recently Jay Z have all been slayed by the Internets via the currently preferred method for slander: memes. Joseph Evans took it even further with DrakeYoloPolo, a small capsule collection featuring the infamous aforementioned images.
As the name implies, the OVO rapper was the initial influence, but as of today, Hov and the "Adorn" crooner have also entered the fold. The trio's images are now immortalized on the chest of an array of golf shirts for purchase.





Yes, the clothing is absolutely hilarious. It's very cost efficient, as it rests comfortably at a $25 price point. This is subject to change when demand grows, so get it while the getting is good.
If you care to cop, the available merchandise can be found here: 



Gucci Mane Tries To Line It Up In Lenox Mall
Feeling froggy?
Gucci Mane is on a roll this week. He’s been surrounded by nothing, but drama and it keeps coming. First he came after a bunch of artists on twitter, then he exposed his bedroom takedowns and now he’s picking fights.

You mad bro? Gucci doesn’t go to the mall to shop, he goes to fight with strangers. Check out this clip from Gucci in Lenox Mall in Atlanta below.

WATCH:

It’s unclear what sparked the altercation. Gucci is so hostile these days…maybe it was all a big misunderstanding. You know no one can understand his words with the way he talks.
One thing for sure, Gucci is mad at the wrong people…he needs to be mad at his first grade teacher for not helping him learn how to properly speak and spell.



Joseph Gordon Levitt won’t answer gay rumors: ‘That would be really tacky’
Joseph Gordon Levitt covers the October issue of Out Magazine to promote Don Jon. He doesn’t quite look like a cartoon character on this cover, but damn, the Photoshop gods have not been good to JGL this week. It’s such a shame because he’s such a cutie. I don’t know if the mags are trying to make him look older and lose the babyface, but whatever the reason, it’s not working. Leave Joe’s face alone.

Other than the cover, this shoot isn’t too bad. Joe cuddles with a kitten and flaps his coat around sort of like Batman. Out’s piece is called “Return of the Leading Man.” JGL talks about all sorts of stuff including his transition from child star to adult actor, his brother’s passing, and his feelings on pr0n. Oh and he talks about those pesky gay rumors too:

Leaving child stardom behind: “I auditioned for lots of little movies and no one wanted to put me in their creatively challenging roles because they didn’t think I could do it. And I don’t blame them. I was known for being on a farcical television show.”

He’s ambivalent toward fame: “It comes from a really young age. It can be really awkward and difficult to be thought of as this thing on TV. Before understanding it or being able to analyze it, I just knew it made me really anxious. I wouldn’t just say ‘No.’ I was way more convincing than that. I would first act confused, and then I would try to understand what they were saying. I would play the part.”

On his late brother, Dan: “He was so overwhelmingly positive and warm. One of my favorite things about hitRECord is how positive it is, especially compared to most of what goes on on the Internet, which can be snarky and cynical. I credit Dan with that. He couldn’t help but get swept up in it, and it makes me so happy that the momentum continues today. I’m on the site every day, and the fact there’s this warmth to it, it reminds me of him every time.”

On his hippie parents: “I think they both instilled into me and my brother the feeling that we’re part of the world, and that that’s important — that we’re all connected and everyone’s well-being is tied to each other. They’re hippies, but they were not so much about being flower children as getting something done, trying to stop this war, or changing civil rights or the feminist movement — and they still are that way.”
On his new film, Don Jon, in which he plays a pr0n addict: “I wasn’t interested in making a movie about pr0nography. I was interested in making a movie about how people treat each other like things, and all kinds of media can contribute to that. I’ve been working as an actor since I was a little kid, and I’ve always been fascinated, and a little horrified, by the way people relate to images they see on screen. Sometimes I feel I am seen as a thing more than a person, and I don’t think that’s unique to actors. I think everyone is subject to that kind of pigeonholing.”

On not refuting paparazzi allegations he is gay: “That would be really tacky — they would win if I had to clarify.”
[From Out Magazine]
Since the main character in Don Jon is comically obsessed with pr0n, I guess questions on the topic are inevitable. JGL seems very conscious about how that industry treats women, but it’s not like he can change things with Don Jon. Like he says above, his movie isn’t even really about pr0n.

I do like how Joe answered the question about gay rumors. Obviously, that kind of gossip doesn’t bother him at all. He has had girlfriends before, right? My gaydar isn’t going off for him at all.



OOOPS: Khloe Kardashian Cuts Off Credit Cards So Lamar Odom Can’t Buy Drugs
A source said:“Khloe put a hold on all their credit cards so he couldn’t get cash.”
What’s even more shocking is that KoKo’s hubby has reportedly been pawning jewelry to pay for his drugs.
And after all that she’s gone through, it seems like Khloe might finally be done with Lamar.

A friend explained:“They will get divorced. There is no way to patch this up.”
Because Khloe froze him out of their joint account, he got extremely angry, a source tells Star. “Lamar became infuriated and stole some of her jewelry in a fit of rage to sell for drugs. He’s spent $1,000 a day at times, and he still owes thousands to his dealers.”

By pawning jewelry for drugs, that will make Khloe completely distrust Lamar and make it that much harder for their marriage to get back on track. We hope that Lamar gets the help he needs soon so his relationship with Khloe can try to be saved. DAMN!!! I was hoping the best for them. Oh well.

Oscar De La Hoya Enters Rehab To Save His Marriage Or His Wife IS OUT!!!!!!
Oscar De La Hoya just announced that he was admitting himself back into rehab for the second time. Back in 2011, Oscar seeked treatment in a facility for alcohol and drug abuse but it was a failed moment because the drug use, alcohol and cross dressing never stopped.

Chief Keef Ordered to Go To Jail For Missing Child Support Payments
I see him being a man child until he is like 45, Chief Keef has been ordered by the judge to go back to jail for skipping his child support payments. He was ordered to go to court September 5th to cough up more than 20k in child support payments.

Of course he never showed up and now they are looking for him and if the cops see him he will be incarcerated. And according to TMZ when they catch him he will have to cough up 1/2 of the amount in order to be released. Well I mean are you surprised? He already owes his landlord $10K in back rent, so he is a lost cause.
