A scenic area in Liuyang, Hunan province, offered woman who are over 22 and still virgins free sightseeing in the area during a festival held from Sept 19 to 25. Many people thought the promotion vulgar and wondered whether the person that came up with it was crazy. However, a director of the scenic area surnamed Liao said it was simply a creative measure to promote the festival. (Chengdu Evening News)

The Emperor's New Body (Chaz Bono)

Although she recently opted to surgically guillotine her bazooms, the stubbly tattooed blobfish born Chastity Sun Bono has no penis and has yet to fill and pave over her vagina with cement, so I refuse to refer to that mortally confused woman as “he.” There ain’t no wiener in that there sausage factory, and thus anyone who insists “Chaz Bono is a man” or “He was born that way” is either a liar, an idiot, or a lying idiot. Baby Bono has no boner, and she could mainline enough testosterone to where she looks like Haystacks Calhoun, but she will forever remain a chick—a hideously mutant sac of celebrity DNA gone wrong, sure—but still a chick.

The Rhineland city of Bonn is now requiring sex workers to purchase a daily tax ticket from a vending machine to walk the streets – ostensibly to make taxation fairer for prostitutes who work in brothels. Taxi driver locks woman in boot after fare dispute (5 Sep 11) Performer plunges to death at Leipzig festival (5 Sep 11) Air Berlin mulls in-flight dialect announcements after web sensation (5 Sep 11) As of Monday, prostitutes had to pay the charge of €6 before they start their business, regardless of the number of customers.

In China, like in the West, crappy public education prompting parents to home school

Home schools emerged in many places of China today due to the parents' concern about the public education, the China Youth Daily reported Monday. A growing number of parents in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong and Zhejiang provinces are choosing to let their children receive an education at home rather than attend public kindergartens, primary, junior or senior middle schools. Some parents think their children cannot realize the happiness of learning, acquire useful knowledge effectively and master learning for a modern society through the current methods taught in schools. A recent seminar about launching home school projects was held by 21st Century Education Research Institute in ...

The Davis Report-The Unusualness of the Human Gene

The Davis Report-The Unusualness of the Human Gene. There are many examples of unusual features found on humans from around the globe. This group below are the Yagans. Now that is not what they called themselves. They called themselves the Yamana. They lived at the bottom of the world, that is the southern tip of South America in the coastal areas of Tierra del Fuego. In that harsh environment, where it rains or sleets and snows over 300 days out of the year, and the water temperature is around 35 degrees, these people rarely dressed in anything at all. Occasionally an otter pelt shawl but most of the time completely naked. When Charles Darwin weighed anchor with the “Beagle”, ...

Swiss launching bee health service
Post Date: 2011-09-03 06:50:48 by Tatarewicz

A national bee health service costing the government SFr750,000 ($940,000) is being set up to improve research into apian well-being. Initial discussions were opened on Thursday. The Federal Veterinary Office said the increasing complexity of bee-keeping required wider specialist knowledge on hive maintenance and disease prevention. The Varroa destructor, an external parasitic mite that attacks honey bees, came to Switzerland 25 years ago. It has the most pronounced economic impact on the beekeeping industry and may be a contributing factor to colony collapse disorder (CCD), which has been affecting Western honey bees since 2006. There are about 19,000 beekeepers with 170,000 bee ...

Berlusconi vows to leave 'shitty' Italy in conversation recorded by police

In a sign of his frustration at the investigations into his alleged crimes and misdemeanours, Silvio Berlusconi vowed in July to leave Italy, which he described as a "shitty country" that "sickened" him. The Italian prime minister's astonishing remarks are contained in the transcript of a telephone conversation secretly recorded by police investigating claims he was being blackmailed about his sex life. At dawn on Thursday, police swooped on a flat near Via Veneto – one of Rome's most expensive streets – to arrest Giampaolo Tarantini, a central figure in a scandal that threatened to bring down Berlusconi two years ago. Tarantini's wife, Angela ...

EDMONTON - It’s no livability index, but Edmonton is being touted as one of Canada’s top cities. It sits 19th on the National Motorists Association’s ranking top 25 U.S. and Canadian cities for reported speed traps. The online list compiles two years of reader reports at http://www.speedtrap.org, divided by most recent U.S. and Canadian census data. With 3.3 speed traps per 100,000 residents, Edmonton is sandwiched between Houston (4.0) and San Diego (3.2) in a list topped by Livonia, Michigan’s whopping 27.9 traps per 100,000 residents. Among Canadian cities, Windsor (17.6), Hamilton (5.0), and Toronto (4.7) beat us. “As far as being No. 1, or No. 10, or No. 20 ...

Review of Pat Shannan's Everything They Ever Told Me Was a Lie

The media are among the "THEY" who are telling us lies . . . And in an engaging new book, AFP correspondent Pat Shannan lays it all out in no uncertain terms . . . His title says it all . . . EVERYTHING THEY* EVER TOLD ME WAS A LIE. Finally completing a work that took four years, intermittently, between exposing false history for THE BARNES REVIEW and weekly investigative reporting for AMERICAN FREE PRESS, Shannan has scored again! In fact, the final manuscript he sent was so big that we had to slice it in half and make it into two volumes. Volume One is a blockbuster, spanning the past half century and covering the unknown facts about the JFK assassination and the still-growing ...

Saturday, August 27, 2011 Watson, you are so busted. Again. When the Oslo bombing happened and no one knew what was going on, Paul Joseph Watson of Infowars knew exactly what was going on. As he confidently reported that very day, "Oslo police were conducting a bombing exercise at a location near the Oslo Opera House just 48 hours before a terrorist blast hit a government building in the Norwegian capital." In Alex Jonestown, of course, "exercises" are really practice drills for false flag terror attacks. Why Oslo police would wait until the eleventh hour to rehearse for something that must have been in the works for months, Watson didn't attempt to explain. ...

Wheatley, Ont., farmer Don Dierckens, shown here Wednesday. He has been fined $1,000 for killing three goslings said he didn't mean to kill any geese as he was trying to get them away from this field near Port Alma before planting. He said the geese are being protected but not his fields. Don Dierckens said he was just trying to shoo geese from his farm field, but the attempt, which killed three goslings, has cost the Ontario farmer $3,500 in fines, fees and gobbled-up soybean plants. The farmer, who says the marauding geese were destroying his crop, pleaded guilty this week to one charge under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act and was fined $1,000. On top of that, he ...

Beijing to cap coal use to reduce pollution

BEIJING - The capital city will cap its annual coal consumption at 20 million tons by 2015, as part of its plan to release less carbon and further reduce air pollution, the municipal commission of development and reform said on Monday. The city will rely on other forms of energy, such as natural gas, petrol, diesel and import electricity from other provinces, to meet its increasing energy demand. "With the city continuing to expand and more people settling in Beijing, the energy demand is set to increase, so the pressure to further bring down energy and carbon intensity is mounting," said Wang Yingjian, a senior official from the municipal commission of development and reform. ...

Wind power blown away by high cost

Wind Power Is Dying While the U.S. is dumping billions of dollars into wind farms and onshore and offshore wind turbines, this energy source is being cast aside as a failure elsewhere in the world. Some 410 federations and associations from 21 European countries, for example, have united against deployment of wind farms charging it is “degrading the quality of life.” The European Platform Against Wind farms (EPAW) is demanding “a moratorium suspending all wind farm projects and a “complete assessment of the economic, social, and environmental impacts of wind farms in Europe.” The EPAW said it objects to industrial wind farms which “are spreading in a ...

Girls get caught for late-night goat walk

A couple of young rustlers attempted to use their imagination to escape the long arm of the law Saturday, but after about an hour of story telling they eventually learned they’d made a baaaaad decision. A Mankato resident called 911 at about 11:30 p.m. Saturday to report two very young girls, who turned out to be under the age of 10, were walking along Carney Avenue north of Riverfront Drive. They were in their pajamas and had a goat with them, the caller said. When an officer arrived, the girls were walking south and had crossed Riverfront Drive. They told the officer the goat belonged to them and they were just taking the animal for a late- night walk. As the kid questioning ...

I recently began running Ubuntu Linux via dual boot on my computer system. It's pretty cool but there are some things I am having problems with. I eventually want to get rid of the dual boot and just run Linux. At the same time I want to run Windows 7 in a virtual machine using VMware Player. I have created four separate users, one for each member of the family. I have successfully installed VMware Player and I have successfully created a virtual window that runs Windows 7. However, the Windows 7 virtual window can only be seen under my user name. What do I have to do for all four users to be able to see the Windows 7 virtual window? It takes 40 GB to install Windows 7 on a virtual ...
