Man of the Year? Cool brew "Huski" inventor has our vote!!

Ah, those New Zealanders!! The latest to carry the torch of their storied tradition - 22 year-old Kent Hodgson, who has invented a portable gadget, that resembles a pocket rocket (double utility?), that can cool down any beer in the matter of seconds. Yeah, seconds.

The man himself, Kent H., said about the invention (The Huski),
"I thought how cool it would be if we could replicate putting beers in a freezer. No warm beer or a diluted drink and I was inspired."

Indeed. You have inspired us, Kent Hodgson, and for that, blessings my child. "The Huski" will sell for around $50 and can cool about 30 330ml bottles. We already pre-ordered. Bow down b#tches, bow down......

Does Bush "constructing detention centers for mysterious programs" weird anyone else out?

Far be it from The Church being sensationalist or subscribing to conspiracy theory, but this was so freaking eerie that we had to pass it along, check an excerpt:

"In January when the Army Corps of Engineers awarded Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root a $385 million contract to construct detention centers somewhere in the United States, to deal with "an emergency influx of immigrants into the US, or to support the rapid development of new programs," KBR said. [Market Watch, Jan. 26, 2006]

Later, the New York Times reported that "KBR would build the centers for the Homeland Security Department for an unexpected influx of immigrants, to house people in the event of a natural disaster or for new programs that require additional detention space." [Feb. 4, 2006]"

50 Tips for Frugal Living - Bless yourself!!

Yeah, we've heard it all before, live frugal because it allows you to spend less than you earn, and then you can use the difference to pay off debt, save or invest. Because the less you spend, the less you need to earn. And that means you can work less, or work more but retire early. Or take mini retirements. You just have more options with a frugal lifestyle. So no drug and booze budget? What fun is that? Check it....

Party like a Jihadi!! Sure dude, blame the music!!

Asharq al-Awsat interviews three would-be “foreign fighters” under arrest in Riyadh who made big plans to join the insurgency. One of the young men says it was the music that made him do it:

"However, his admiration of the voice and words of an Islamic Jihadi singer and his call to participate in the insurgency pushed him to do what he did.

Al-Quayri told Asharq al-Awsat that he distributed documentaries about Jihad in Iraq after finding inspiration in the words of the unknown Islamic singer who Al-Quayri now feels deceived him by saying that Jihad is the least he could do for Muslims in such a chaotic country."

Stare-down a rugby player from your home!!

Archiblad Ingall Stretton in London built an advergame for the O2 mobile provider that puts you in a staring contest with three rugby players. The best part is that the game is able to tell when you blink or look away: "We capture the output of the webcam using BitmapData, using the current and previous frames of data we apply a Difference filter to the two images and then we analyse, pixel by pixel, what has changed." Dope.....check it.......

Extinct Walrus Penis Bone goes for $8,000!!! I'm in the wrong business....

On my birthday no less!! A fossilized penis bone from an extinct walrus got auctioned off for $8,000, far below the expected price. The 4½-foot-long "item," covered with weathered skin and dry muscle tissue, was sold to the company that runs the Ripley's Believe It or Not museums, said Josh Chait, director of operations for the I.M. Chait Gallery, his family's auction house.

"Their corporate office bought it and they'll probably display it around the country," he said. The fossilized baculum, or penis bone, is from a species of walrus that went extinct 12,000 years ago. It was found preserved in permafrost in northern Siberia.

The auction house said it was believed to be the largest known mammal penis fossil (Wait till The Church dies.....couldn't help it.....).

"I'm glad it's going to a museum and not a private collection" so it can on public display, Chait said. "It's definitely something everyone should see once in their life."

I can't make this sh#t up.......God I love being alive........

Dope......check it......

War Scholar Draws out Attack Plan for Iran - great....

Ah the war mongering continues......I wouldn't even be that mad if it was well considered, but British scholar, arms expert and Director of the Center for International Studies and Diplomacy, Dr. Dan Plesch says, "We wrote the report partly as we were surprised that this sort of quite elementary analysis had not been produced by the many well resourced Institutes in the United States."

Uh, can you say awesome, that the country we won our freedom from is now drawing up the war plans that we just sort of pushed to the bottom of the G.W.'s Honey-do list? The plan is "what the military option might involve if it were picked up off the table and put into action," which is hella cool to find in theory, not so cool in practice. Check the paper, "Considering a war with Iran: A discussion paper on WMD in the Middle East."

Gays overdosing on GHB at crazy rate this summer!!

The industrial and household solvent based party drug GHB has sure been kicking the gay community's ass this summer!! There have been a record number of deaths by overdose at the circuit parties like the annual Pines Party and Fire Island in New York, so much so that there was even a bulletin put out by the Board of Directors at Pines Care Centers:

We regret to inform the Fire Island Pines Community that there was a death this morning, Saturday, August 18, 2007, of a 31 year old healthy man from a reaction to GHB.

This tragic incident follows an unprecedented number of GHB overdoses at the Pines Party, July 29.

Putting this together there is a strong likelihood that the GHB being distributed in the community is particularly toxic and dangerous.

We circulate this information to encourage all Pines and Grove residents to stay away from any GHB.

Of course it is better not to take any illegal drugs as there are no known ways to reverse their side effects. But all the overdoses we have seen in the last four weeks have included GHB.

Sincerely,
Dr. Ed Schulhafer, M.D.
President
Board of Directors
Pines Care Center, Inc.

Karl Rove. Father. Gold Cock Ring - nuff said!!

This story almost makes all this G.W. shite worth it!! So according to an essay on BME Zine, Louis Claude Rove Jr., adopted father of Karl Rove, "was not only gay, but a part of the early body piercing scene and a regular at 70s piercing parties... There are pictures of him on BME," according to founder of BME Shannon Larratt. Below is an excerpt:

Louie loved his piercings, they made him smile. People who are pierced will understand.

So there on the floor in his library, amid teaching videos on piercings and piles of [Piercing Fans International Quarterly], I listened to one man’s account of his travels through the Los Angeles piercing community in the 70’s and 80’s — the "piercing parties" with folks getting pierced on coffee tables in private homes, nurses that helped, and a guy named Jim. I knew about Jim. I had both my nipples pierced at The Gauntlet.

Louie also knew about play piercings; I wanted to learn and so he taught me. And so between splashing in the pool, brunches, visiting his volunteer list of AIDS patients, eating at all numbers of restaurants, visiting friends who lived around the area, birding at the Salton Sea and eating TV dinners, we explored needles and the effect they have on you.

During the day I was told the names of piercings ... I hated the words but I wanted to know about each kind. To this day I’ve never gotten dydoe because Louie told me it was a hard heal. I never copied Louie’s piercings but I never got them out of my mind. Some years after I last saw him, I found another friend, a professional piercer name Sque3z who took me on another journey recounted on BME. Louie would be proud.

If you can stomach it, check the Rove Sr.'s "alleged" piercings: #1 & #2
