How Dare You Judge Me?Yes, Kim Kardashian is a talentless attention whore who has had more black guys inside her than a parole hearing, but please don't tell me that her body wasn't built to be bent over a couch and fucked like you were a rabbit with the rage virus. I want to cum on her face, not ask her opinion about this week's Face The Nation. If you can't understand that, just go back to what you were doing. Like trying to buy accessories for your Strawberry Shortcake dolls on eBay obviously. |
Souting SlogansA Sikh man protested against the Taliban in Jammu, India, Tuesday after the decapitated bodies of two Sikhs, who were kidnapped in Pakistan’s Khyber tribal region, were found. |
Sophie Monk Needs More ExposureI think this is the first photoshoot I’ve ever seen of Sophie Monk. I believe it’s for Cosmo. I wish a male magazines would get in on the Sophie Monk action, she’s perfect for something like Maxim or Hustler. I’ve been trying to land her for sometime but it seems that she’s not into working for free or working at all period. OK, I never tried to reach her, but she knows where to find me if she wants some career advice. I’d be glad to help. |
HIV and AIDS in AsiaIn the early to mid-1980s, while other parts of the world were beginning to deal with serious HIV and AIDS epidemics, Asia remained relatively unaffected. By the early 1990s, however, AIDS epidemics had emerged in several Asian countries, and by the end of the decade, HIV was spreading rapidly in many areas of the continent. Activists campaigning against HIV-related discrimination in India. Today, around 4.7 million people are living with HIV in Asia. Although national HIV prevalence rates in Asia appear to be relatively low, the populations of some Asian countries are so vast that these low percentages actually represent very large numbers of people living with HIV. India, for example, has an estimated HIV prevalence of 0.3%, which seems low when compared to prevalence rates in some parts of sub-Saharan Africa. However, with a population of around one billion, this actually equates to 2.5 million people living with HIV in India. |

The Ariete Primo, A Luxurious Yacht Disguised As A Tug BoatAs I’ve stated in the past, one issue that I have with many superyachts is that they have the ugly habit of reminding of eachother. White, sleek, streamlined, top performance, unique, like no other, artisanship, fully customizable, innovative, workmanship. Tired already? Beginning her life as a Richard Dunston in 1967, the Ariete Primo was bought by its current owner in 2004. After years of expensive rebuilding (without losing touch of its roots), the ship’s interior was upgraded to that of a luxurious yacht. Sneaky, right? Some of the features not pictured above include a full-fledged chromo & aroma therapy spa, a gym and even a complete hammam (you know, those steaming Turkish sauna-like things). Oh, and a whirlpool bath. Let’s take a closer look. |
The 6 Science Experiments in AntarcticaThe coldest, driest, and iciest of Earth's continents, Antarctica is home to some of the most important and ambitious science projects on the planet. Here, at the West Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide, Kendrick Taylor and his team of glaciologists drill into ancient ice to pull up ice cores, which trap bubbles of the atmosphere from the time that ice fell as snow. In order to predict future changes in climate, scientists verify and refine their models against paleoclimate data from the ice cores Taylor and others pull up. The researchers are working to construct a record of carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere over the last 100,000 years. |
X-36 Tailless Fighter Agility Research AircraftThe X-36 was a prototype aircraft tested and flown by NASA in 1997. The X-36 was a 28 percent scale model aircraft which was remotely piloted from the ground. I suppose you could say it was the mother of all r/c aircraft. The X-36 was developed to help test and prove the theory of tailless aircraft design. The design used advanced technologies to improve the maneuverability and survivability of possible future fighter aircraft. The X-36 was designed to fly without the traditional tail surfaces common on most aircraft. Instead, a canard forward of the wing was used as well as split ailerons and an advanced thrust-vectoring nozzle for directional control. The X-36 was unstable in both pitch and yaw axes, so an advanced, single-channel digital fly-by-wire control system (developed with some commercially available components) was put in place to stabilize the aircraft. |
Energy Efficient Hardware InvestigatedOver the last year, we've been inundated with tech products branded as ECO-this and Green-that. While we've always been interested in energy consumption as an indicator of aspects of technical design and performance, we're far from convinced that you can actually save significant cash by buying a-n-other company's ‘power saving’ product. We're going to measure the real world differences between actual performance PCs. By measuring the power at the wall socket we have a direct readout of the immediate benefit provided by changing one component to a lower-power alternative, but it's important to combine this with the time it takes to complete a computational task - a CPU that's 1 per cent more power efficient when video encoding but that takes 50 per cent longer than its competitor isn't going to be beneficial. From these two variables (power use and time taken), we can work out the product's efficiency as a factor of power use over time. |
