Women’s History Month: Entertainment Mogul Mona Scott Young

In celebration of Women’s History Month, I thought I’d start the series #WCM ( Women Crush Month). The purpose of this series is to honor exemplary women who continuously take leaps into uncharted territory turning the unknown into overflowing success. As future womenpreneurs, it is crucial that we are exposed to those women already leading in their respective industries providing us with guidance and advice.

The company says it works “mainly for national and international governmental security agencies,” including a test partnership with the Dutch National Police. (The police department has apparently asked a Dutch scientific research organization to make sure no birds are harmed on the job.)

Killer eagles are not totally unexpected. At the end of 2014, Fortune predicted that drone hunting would become a sport. And from a counter-terrorism point of view, if we already use canines to sniff out drugs and bombs, why not use raptors to tackle drones?

Atlanta Police Officers Fist Fight Over Who Can Run Faster

Two Atlanta police officers are “off duty” after getting into a ~~drunken~~ brawl at a bar over who could run faster. LOL!

The argument got so heated that it resulted in the two coppers going outside to fist fight, and one copper allegedly pulling his gun on the other!

You CAN’T make this stuff up. This has drunken written all over it.

Wouldn’t the more befitting thing to do to settle the score have been to just go outside and race? Winner takes all.

Peep the story. Join the discussion.

According to Channel 2 news– A local police officer is suspended and another has resigned after the two men got into a fight.

Investigators say the Atlanta police officers started arguing at the R. Thomas Deluxe Grill in Buckhead around 5 a.m. last Friday. The two were arguing over who could run faster.

Officers Stephen Green and Joseph Tyer decided to go outside where they started fighting.

According to a police report, Green said tension escalated, and Tyer told him, “I’m going to punch you in the face.”

The co-workers then began physically fighting, until other officers broke it up.

Officers say Tyer allegedly pulled his gun. No shots were fired.

Green has been relieved of duty, but is still being paid as the investigation unfolds. He’s been worked at the department for more than four years.

Tyer resigned Wednesday. He worked at the department for more than three years.
There’s an ongoing investigation within the police department and on a criminal level.
