Georgia Newspaper Puts Obama In Crosshairs

Via Wonkette, a small paper serving the Atlanta suburb of Roswell, Georgia called the Roswell Beacon is drawing fire for running a cover that depicts Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama in the crosshairs of a gun sight. The cover image promotes a story by freelance reporter Alan Sverdlik, who penned the article "he was curious how law enforcement agencies were handling the increased number of threats lodged against Obama by white supremacist groups" in the Fulton County area. Sverdlik has told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he had no input on the cover design that accompanied the article.

This Man Has the Largest Penis in the World

This Man Has the Largest Penis in the World: 13.5 in (34.29 cm) Erect!

Enlarge picture

We may not be so impressive as other species with our physical abilities: powerful muscles or weaponry like fangs, claws, horns and so on. But we have evolved to excel in one issue: sex. Not regarding sexual activity - as it has been shown that the bonobo (which is also wrongly named "dwarf chimpanzee") has more sex and much varied than the human being - but penis size.

Man is the ape, the monkey and the primate with the biggest penis!

it appears to be the New Yorker Jonah Cardeli Falcon (born July 29, 1970). His willy is 9.5 in (24.13 cm) flaccid, 13.5 in (34.29 cm) erect! The average human penis is 6 in (15 cm) long...

But the huge penis is not a blessing.

He lives with his mom and his whale penis, without a girlfriend for 12 years.

Your Bi-Lingual Kitty

clipper's remarks: "It’s kind of nice to think your kitty has gone to the effort to learn a second language to communicate with you. Sure, she did it mostly out of necessity, but also out of affection. She wouldn’t meow just for your attention if she didn’t enjoy a relationship with you."

Your Bi-Lingual Kitty

Adult cats, living apart from humans, have very clear communication with one another. It is spoken mostly through scent, then through facial expression, complex body language, and touch.

Meowing is not part of this language. Meow-ese, it would seem, is a language developed exclusively for humans.

The only meowing in the cat world is done between mom cat and her young kittens.

So why do cats have two “languages?” Because meowing is unnecessary in a cat’s world. But in your world, your pet cat is dependent on you, and quickly learns that you are clearly not picking up the scent messages she leaves on your things, and you are not completely fluent in cat body language.

“meow” however gets you to do what she wants

cats have refined their meows specifically to manipulate people.

You may find that the meows that tug at your heartstrings the most are the ones your cat is using

Meow-ese seems to be generally understood by “cat people.”

We have to admit it works.

If you have a 1.5 year old and a cat you know the two don't sit still for two seconds. This was one of those rare moments that comes along every once in a while. And as a rule usually happens when you don't have your camera nearby. This was an exception to that rule :)

In what must be an incredible show of patience and preciseness, there are people in this weird world we all share that make a practice of balancing seemingly implacable rocks on top of each other. The result is surreal and quiet beautiful... if for nothing more than its apparent impossibility.

Just about everyone loves the beach. If you don’t, then you just haven’t truly experienced an amazing beach yet.

The bright sun, endless blue skies, the sand beneath your feet, a cool breeze and the most crystal clear water you’ve ever seen will be sure to win over your heart.

Here are some of the secret sands; to those who are looking for secluded beaches around the globe, where quiet coasts invite in-the-know sunbathers to savor their relative solitude.

Wildcat Beach, Point Reyes National Seashore, California

Cayo Costa, Florida

Pink Beach, Barbuda, Antigua and Barbuda

one huge sandbar

Los Frailes, Ecuador

Majahuitas Cove, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Store Beach, Sydney, Australia

Porat Beach, Bisevo, Croatia

Playa Medina, Venezuela

Poles Bay, Kea, Greece

The island of Kea, with terraced hillsides and ancient, stone-paved walking paths, is a day trip from Athens.

Thoughtful guy tries to make quantum/theology connection

clipper's remarks: If we are not to be determinists then there has to be a mechanism that allows the 'billiard ball' scenario to be over-ridden. Top-down causation might be that mechanism.

Rethinking quantum mechanics

That title makes it sound like I actually know stuff about quantum mechanics, which I don’t. Anyway, I was thinking about it a little today, and I realized that my rejection of non-deterministic interpretations of quantum theory does not entail determinism simpliciter. I’m sure most of you are smarter than I was in this regard, but humour me:

I don't miss crying on train tracks,
don't miss not knowing where to start,
don't miss questioning, "Am I falling apart?"
I don't miss counting prescription pills,
don't miss wondering, "Would this jump kill?"
I don't miss being angry and not knowing why,
don't miss yelling up to God, "Just let me die!"
I don't miss not sleeping night after night,
don't miss not having an appetite.
I don't miss puking and I sure don't miss quitting,

What I Miss
From "This Sober Life"

When I look at everything in
black and white
I might be missing some things
but I figure I did this right.
So what if I miss laughing with all my friends
or miss feeling like I fit in.
I might miss staying up until night turns into day
and I might miss cold beers on sunny days.
I miss rum and I miss schnapps
but I also miss Derek and I don't miss cops.
I don't miss courts and I don't miss cells,
don't miss feeling like killing my self.
I sure don't miss crying in bed all night,
don't miss worrying about paying fines,
don't miss hangovers or morning regret,
don't miss calling, saying, "Bail me out dad."
Even though I miss not worrying about my life
or not having to wonder, "Am I doing this right?"

City Slickers Turn Tropical Entrepreneurs: An Eco-Adventure

Tue, 06 May 2008 16:44:48 GMT

clipped by: urbanlife
clipper's remarks: Imagine going after your dream business…on a tropical island. What does it really take to build an island resort? In 2002, four city slickers set out to build their dream business in the Panamanian rainforest: called Tranquilo Bay.

All of the buildings at Tranquilo Bay—are constructed from steel, virtually unheard of in that corner of Panama: but they wanted to protect against termites, sea air, and earthquake damage.

Jim Kimball and Jay Viola knew nothing about construction before beginning work on the buildings. They learned everything they needed from the Internet during Sunday visits to the mainland.

“We built Tranquilo Bay inside the rainforest overlooking the Caribbean Sea and the beautiful Panamanian Jungle. Our central location within the archipelago of Bocas del Toro permits us to explore some of the most biologically diverse areas of Panama and Central America: an archipelago of some 68 tropical islands”
