REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY *Update*

So there was some recent activity in the GIUDICE bankruptcy case. 2 of JOE'S business properties, including Giuseppe's Home-style Pizza, along-with the upstairs domicile(s) & other businesses located at 1576 Maple Ave., in Hillside, were freed from the protection of the bankruptcy case, in effect, allowing the mortgage lenders to begin foreclosure and/or other legal remedies that had been blocked by the bankruptcy case.

 Life & Style Magazine has a current story reporting that JOE was a strip-club regular at a strip-joint that closed-down in 2006, and some other sordid, sex, claims about JUICY JOE, (ick?). Claims that TERESA herself has sold that story to Life & Style, don't surprize me at this point.

There is a rumor circulating that TERESA has set  a deadline of MIDNIGHT, on HALLOWEEN, for BRAVO, and/or the production company to come to a contract agreement for Season 3 of The RHWONJ.
BRAVO has responded with this:

Realitytvmagazine, (here)  Says that , (again Life & Style Magazine, who's content is only available on newstands),  says;

Teresa Giudice is filming season three, but without a signed contract!  This news comes with reports that Teresa has been trying to get her own reality spin-off show and that contract negotiations with Bravo have altogether broken down.  -(realitytvmagazine)

In other RHWONJ news, TMZ, (here, with video), reports that DANIELLE STAUB, and her eyebrows, were served legal notice of a defamation suit by SLEEZY STEVE, while trolling the red-carpet recenly at an event.

"Press Stunt"?......or Jumbo Mortgage Fraud?

TWITTER-version of a Kiss...

and make up....

Betweext ROB SHUTER over at POPEATER.COM, and TERESA. Awww. A happy-ending.
But is it? And does this look like a "Press Stunt" to you?

MASTROPOLE'S Complaint. Read the rest here.

You can see JOE & TERESA'S lawyers answer, and more details about this case, in the WAYBACK MACHINE ARCHIVES. (here) . These court documents, are the complaint filed by JOE'S EX-business partner. Among other things, they confirm that JOE indeed was a Section-8 landlord, which refutes the statements that TERESA gave to the press claiming that tenants couldn't pay the rent due to the economy.
WE were paying the rent! And according to the COMPLAINT-it went right into JOE'S pocket.  The US government subsidizes & guarantees rent payment for Section 8 tenants, most of whom also receive welfare, Social Security, or other subsidies. Fixed-income, yes, but for a Section 8 landlord, a dependable source of CASH.
MASTRAPOLE is the ex-business partner/"creditor", who claims that he was injured when JOE G. committed fraud, by forging his name on some jumbo mortgage documents  and/or title claims, or both. However JOE did it, it led to more $$$$ in his & TERESA'S pockets, and money-pit/mansion. MASTRAPOLE was shut-out from getting what was owed when GIUDICE filed for bankruptcy. The complaint, is an appeal to the courts, to deny the bankruptcy. Incidentally, GIUDICE'S lawyers, in their answer to the complaint, claim that MASTRAPOLE lacks "standing", or authority, to make such a request.
The folks over at IBUYSSS.COM, Tabloid TV, have been keeping a close-eye on this case. They have an interview with MASTROPOLE on their site, and they want us to know that we should circle our calendars with some important dates in THE GIUDICE'S on-going legal saga:

"UP COMING DATES

Who is Susan B Komen, and What Does She Have to do With the HOUSEWIVES?

There may be a Susan "B" Komen, but if she has a foundation that sells pink-ribbon bracelets, I bet that the Susan "G" Komen For the Cure® people are not very happy with her!
I found the Susan "B" bracelet, for sale on CANDICE LAURITA'S website, http://www.dazzlecandy.com/Candy-That-Cares-c4/  .  Does everyone in that family have a name that begins-with "C"? (Caroline, Claudine, (<--Dina), Chris, Candice...)
CANDICE is DINA & CAROLINE MANZO'S niece, and should be entitled to her privacy, I agree, except for the fact that she has made her family relationship public, and has even promoted the fact on her site by offering, "Housewives" jewelry. 
Not only that, but the way that I found her site in the first place, was because she frequently #TWEETS to CAROLINE MANZO, and those #TWEETS have a direct link to her online store . So she's obviously hoping that her association with THE HOUSEWIVES will be good for her business.

http://twitter.com/dazzlecandy

Her bracelets have also been featured on housewifestyle.com. HOUSEWIFE STYLE is one of my favorite websites, even-if it is a little tricky to get the hang of how to read it. The person who runs that site is amazingly diligent in finding items that we've seen worn by THE HOUSEWIVES, and telling us where we can find them. She has photos and info.that I haven't seen anywhere else.
When I first clicked-in to DAZZLE CANDY, my first opinion was that $300. was too high of a price for me for beads, ($75 for children's), even though the bracelets are nice. I continued browsing the site to see if  I could find something more affordable, and the pink-ribbon, "Susan" bracelet was only forty-dollars.
And that's when I realized that Ms. LAURITA , may have made a mistake.
She did. No biggee, her heart is in the right place I'm sure, just like AUNTIE DINA'S, but there are problems with using the registered trademark name of a company, even-if that company is a charitable organization.
What does Susan G Komen For the Cure say about it?

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is very protective of its trademarks and service marks and has registered such marks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and/or claims common law rights in these marks. All use of these marks must be with Susan G. Komen for the Cure's permission. -Susan G. Komen for the Cure®

Susan G. Komen for the Cure® has actually had very big problems reigning-in and defending it's tradmarks.
In the past, KOMEN, has been criticized for defending it's legal property, because contributors didn't like the idea of money that they had donated for breast-cancer research, going to lawyers. But they are entitled to profit from the use of their valuable name , and they, like any other major organization, have strict rules about who they establish a partnership with. They do not currently have a partnership with DAZZLE CANDY, and DAZZLE is NOT authorized at this time to use their name, or registered trademark. 
I'll have to assume that she hasn't sold many of the counterfeit bracelets yet, because I would hope that she at least notices her spelling mistake, when she writes that check to the Susan "B" Komen...
CANDICE is not the first, or only person to assume that she does not need permission to use the KOMEN brand-name. EBAY, ESTY, & others all have policies & have implemented ways to make charitable donations through crafts. 
Maybe someone should start a fund to send the kind-hearted MANZOS to a boot-camp or seminar, "How to fund-raise without getting into trouble."?
By the way, here's a link for authorized, "official", Susan "G" Komen for the cure merchandise:  
http://www.shopkomen.com/  there are some darling  PINK items there, and you can be sure that its legit.

DANILLE STAUB Accused-of Lying about being Adopted!

This is a shocker to me. Earlier today, while hanging-out in the comments section of Lynn's latest blog, http://lynnnchicago101.wordpress.com/2010/09/30/i-hate-jill-zarin-top-chef-just-desserts-dina-manzo-project-ladybug/ ,someone posted a link to another blog WWW.HOUSEWIVESBLOG.TV. The topic on that blog, was CHRISTINE STAUB'S Sweet-Sixteen party episode. There was some interesting, "inside" information posted about TOM STAUB actually footing-the-bills for a party that DANIELLE claims was provided completely by donations. (OK- Daddy could have "donated" too, but IF he actually paid for his daughter's party, it would have been nice for her to be able to say, "Thank-you" to her dad instead-of pretending that other people had "donated".)
THAT is not even the SHOCKING part of that blog. What blew-my-mind, was this:

Copied From www.housewivesblog.tv

Back at LYNN'S blog, the above-mentioned blog, and the allegations, were questioned. No one has ever heard these things, it is from an un-named source, and the blogger is opinionated. 'nuff said right? Um-not quite. First of all, that particular blog has remained online for months. I decided to reach-out to that blogger, so I left a message on her FACEBOOK, since she seems to check there frequently. I decided to have a look at my FACEBOOK, and check-on DANIELLE STAUB IS AN IDIOT on FACEBOOK while I was there.

Danielle Staub is an Idiot FB

Then I see it a SECOND time! WHAT THE H???? Unfortunately, this time, the "info.", is attributed to "the Housewives blog"-UM-Which one???? KIM G.'s name is also mentioned, so that might be another "clue" as to where this story is coming-from, but this rumor is getting around, that's for sure.
IS DANIELLE a "pathological liar"?  GOOGLE© seems to think-so!

Click image to enlarge

DANIELLE has a sister who to my knowledge, has never been heard-from. If only SHE would sell a story to RADAR or TMZ, then we might really learn some truths. IF DANIELLE is lying about being adopted, that lie would now be decades old! DANIELLE'S novel, which ironically has the word, "Truth" in the title, is based-on the story of DANIELLE'S, ("alleged"???) adoption. Being adopted, is/was the ONLY thing that DANIELLE has maintained, that people have accepted as fact. Now I'm not so sure about it.

*GOOGLE BOOKS (here) has a great-deal of DANIELLE'S memoir, The Naked Truth, posted online.
of course Death by 10-Thousand Paperclips.com, (link on right-hand side of this page), disputes much of those "truths" in the book.

Dina's Stll Being Pestered About PROJECT LADYBUG

LYNN FROM CHICAGO has added to "Project Ladybug Woes", on her site. It has now become a collection of document(s), and screen-shots of bizarre TWITTER messages. People who have made innocent, (ok-maybe sceptically innocent), inquiries into the PL, (PROJECT LADYBUG), financials, have been met with emotionally charged messages, like, "You are trying to hurt sick children!!!", to THREATS that they have been reported to "authorities".
LYNN'S blog is abuzz with talk of PL today, and one commenter posted a link to a recent newspaper article, (August 2010), that boasts donations of TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.http://www.northjersey.com/news/business/business_news/Cut-a-thon_to_benefit_Project_Ladybug_charity.html
(Cut from North Jersey.com)

Since last year, Project Ladybug has donated $20,000 to pediatric cancer patients.

 That's nice. But in July, I wrote a post about just how much PL has raised this year, there is a link below, but I neglected to post a screen-shot of the current Saint Joseph's Hospital web-page, where the headline says that TWO-HUNDRED THOUSANDhttp://stjosephshealth.org/index.php/200000-raised-for-the-project-ladybug-fund-at-sjch was raised, yet in the body of the story, it appears a zero, was, and still is, missing. Also, by doing the math on ticket costs & attendance at PL'S major fund-raiser, I would have to say that more than a hundred grand was collected. Here's the screen-shot:

Click image to view 200 or 20-Thousand. Red circles, mine.

I copied that from SAINT JOE'S Hospital, where people who hit the "Donate" button on PL'S site, are re-directed. Currently, people who donate online to PL, are directed to SAINT JOSEPH'S Hospital. But that raises another question for me. PROJECT LADYBUG, according to JENNIFER SALE, of CHICAGO NOW, mentioned in the post below, DID help a patient. Apparently, a donor kicked-off the NATIONAL PROJECT LADYBUG, with a large donation earmarked for a hospital in CHICAGO. If PL is going NATIONAL, will SAINT JOSEPH'S be willing to administer funding to other hospitals ?????
Yeah, I put a lot of question marks there because I don't even know where to begin with that one.
The major fund-raiser for PROJECT LADYBUG, NIGHTS IN MOROCCO as stated in the above document, sold over a thousand tickets. HERE'S a link  to the page that contain the invitation and information about that event. Copied here is a screen-shot of the costs for tickets, and ad-sales from that page:

I am not trying to "hurt people with cancer"!-As other investigators have been accused-of, (Geossomething'smom on Twitter). I'm curious about this. I've been thinking about TERESA & DINA, and how they had big dreams, and small wallets, and how they just may have lucked-out. The latest rumor for TERESA, is that she is getting her own spin-off, and working & negotiating her heart out to put a dent in her debt problems. DINA has associated PL with none other than, THE BLESSED MOTHER. A pretty powerful patron, and I'd rather mess-with the MOB, than piss-off a SAINT!   So you never know, the story of both of their financial difficulties could be the the story of the JERSEY GIRL method of making money.

More Tangled-Tweets, the Ball is in ClauDINA'S Court.

*(and yes, DINA has been sent TWEETS about this today also!)
About Claudine/Dina's Project Ladybug financials: there was another little Twitter-war going on about it this morning. It may have started when Lynn recently posted a PROJECT LADYBUG document at the top of her site? http://lynnnchicago101.wordpress.com/dina-manzos-project-ladybug-legal-woes/
Anyhow, this morning, someone who has a blog-forum dropped this little TWIT-turd about a 2008 NJ financial record of PROJECT LADYBUG.
I sent Real_Housewives a TWEET, letting her know that I had more info. about this in an older blog of mine, and that her info. was from 2008. (old) http://njhousewives.blogspot.com/2010/07/real-housewives-of-new-jersey-twitter.html .
 Sometime later, I looked at Real_Housewives forum again, and what should I see? Someone was irritated that Real_Housewife had, um, "borrowed" her screen-shot, (the PROJECT LADYBUG INFO.), that she had posted last night! Pasted below, is the message on REAL_Housewives forum, and below that is some of the TWITTER convo. about the "borrowing".

 JENNIFER SALES/aka REALITY JEN from CHICAGO NOW.com also had some complaints. I have a cut & paste masterpiece of  JEN'S TWEETS, and I did edit-out some of it for space & privacy. Unfortunately, you have to read the TWEETS from the bottom-up, and the "juicy" parts are at the top. Here's what JEN had to say about it all.
