Vida Guerra is making her modeling comeback. Following a new pictorial in Black Men magazine, the Cuban model is now dropping a new calendar for 2010.  

 

The 2010 calendar features all new photos of Guerra in sexy bikinis shot against various beach, pool and other locations.

 

That’s 12 different Vidas for the New Year!

 

The calendar is for sale on the model’s official website at VidasWorld.com for $19.99. But, if you wanna cough up a little more, Vida will sign it for you for $49.99.

 

Guerra first break onto the scene after a self-submitted photo of herself popped up in a 2002 issue of FHM. Thanks to her very round backside, men went crazy, demanding more photos of her and the magazine obliged. The exposure helped her become a staple in men’s magazines for years to come, and she was eventually named FHM’s Model of the Year in 2004.

 

Over the past couple years, Vida cut back on modeling gigs to focus on her music career, and TV work. She landed a reality TV show on the Speed Channell called “Livin’ The Low Life,” centered around America’s lowriding community where she plays host. The show premiered in early 2008, and Season 2 is set to premiere in January 2010. Her debut album never saw the light of day though.

The chairman of the Nevada State Athletic Commission has ordered Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. to take immediate out-of-competition urine tests, even as the sides bicker heatedly over a drug-testing policy that threatens to scrap their scheduled March 13 mega-fight in Las Vegas.

Nevada Athletic Commission Chairman Pat Lundvall ordered Executive Director Keith Kizer to point Mayweather and Pacquiao to accredited drug-testing labs in the United States and Philippines, respectively, for tests that must be completed by Wednesday, Kizer told The Times.
The tests will be paid for by Nevada and are consistent with World Anti-Doping Agency guidelines, Kizer said.

“It’s a start,” Kizer said. “Whether it’s the end, I don’t know.”

Kizer was referring to the ongoing argument that the Mayweather and Pacquiao camps are engaged in over how to conduct drug tests. Pacquiao’s camp wants to submit two blood tests, one in January, another 30 days before the fight, and another after the bout. Mayweather’s camp, after consulting with the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency about its protocol, argues that the fighters should be subjected to possible random blood testing until the first bell.

On Tuesday, Mayweather’s camp issued a prepared statement saying they’ve already made major concessions on deal points, including the weight limit and gloves, and were hopeful Pacquiao would agree “that many different substances and procedures can only be detected by blood testing.” Team Mayweather contends that Pacquiao had blood drawn just 14 days before his May fight against Ricky Hatton.

Mayweather’s statement also noted Pacquiao won’t agree to mediation on the subject by someone as respected as Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.):

“Team Mayweather … is still open to the earlier discussions of having both parties work out a mutually agreeable understanding of the testing, which would be conducted by a mutually-agreed-upon agency.”

“… As Floyd has already stated, he does not have a problem with the random procedure and will be under the same requirements as Pacquiao. It is simply hard for him to understand why there is reluctance on Pacquiao’s part to agree to do the same.”

Benched New York Knicks guard Nate Robinson was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Monday after his agent made a trade request.

Robinson has not played in the Knicks’ last 12 games. A two-time winner of the All-Star slam dunk contest, he has played in only 12 games this season and is averaging 11 points.

Agent Aaron Goodwin recently told reporters he’d asked the Knicks to move Robinson to another team. NBA players are not allowed to publicly make trade demands, and Robinson was fined for statements detrimental to the league.

Goodwin said the benching was personal, not Basketball related. A day after Goodwin’s comments on Dec. 19, Knicks president Donnie Walsh said he would probably begin talks with the agent about a deal.

Robinson averaged a career-high 17.2 points last season as the Knicks’ sixth man. He was a restricted free agent in the offseason and re-signed with a one-year contract.

I believe that if Blake Griffin has no more setbacks to his timetable and returns without ill effect from his injury, he could have an impact that goes beyond just making the Clippers competitive in the West. He might put them in the hunt for LeBron James next summer. I still believe James, the reigning NBA MVP, will re-up with the Cavaliers after he becomes a free agent in July. But if he opts to take his game elsewhere, he will be weighing the championship potential of his new team and the intangibles of his new hometown. Why not L.A.? It has all the intangibles an NBA player could want. –San Antonio Express-News

Im all for James going to the Clippers as long as I buy season tickets before he comes- The D
