| Hip-Hop Rumors: Chingy Gets Mad! Is Lauryn Broke? Where is Wendy ...
All my Delaware, Philly and South Jersey people, I have the low down on where Wendy Williams and Charlamange went! From what I heard, there is a lot of corporate and business wrangling over Wendy in the city of Brotherly Love on Power 99 FM. I don't have specifics, but they are looking to return to Philly's airwaves asap. The only thing is, it might not be on Power 99. You know, where Wendy goes, the people go. I am pleased to announced that according to what I know, Wendy and C are going to be landing in Los Angeles later this month. That's what Beyonce calls a good look better yet a hood look. LAURYN BROKE? Damn, damn, damn! Laurun is possibly broke? Yes, says sources at Fox News Sources say Hill was living in the Caribbean for a while as the mother of four children by Rohan Marley, son of the late Bob Marley.
What's hot, what's not in region's job sectors
The retail sector shed 750 jobs in the North Shore Workforce area from 2001 to 2006, state data show. The losses may have been the result of the merger of Filene's and Macy's department stores. There are some signs the retail decline may be slowing. NorthshoreMall in Peabody - the region's largest shopping center with 2,600 employees - expects to add 600 to 800 jobs by next year, when Nordstrom's is to open a new anchor store, while other stores expand. A Macy's Men's and Home Furnishings became the newest mall tenant last week when it opened at the former Lord & Taylor site. Other new tenants include Timberland, The Cheesecake Factory, and a revitalized Filene's Basement. "Cashiers and sales workers aren't fast-growing jobs," said Eliot Winer, chief economist at the state Department of Employment and Training.
Asian 'godfathers' maintain mystique
THE rise of China and the revival of most other Asian economies have consigned the financial crisis of a decade ago to a distant haze. We're back, for the most part, in admiration mode. Clever blighters, these Asians, how on earth do they do it? One ubiquitous answer is that their good economic fortunes are driven substantially by brilliant entrepreneurs - almost all of them apparently ethnic Chinese - who have seized their chance with verve, being let off the regulatory leash to create diverse business empires out of virtually nothing. Enter Joe Studwell, iconoclastic British author of The China Dream and founder of the excellent Hong Kong-based China Economic Quarterly. His recently published Asian Godfathers: Money and Power in Hong Kong and southeast Asia is one of the best business books of 2007, and one of the best on Asia.
