eyelashes are awesome

Erica Lynn, 27, a Florida model with long auburn hair, breast implants and a nose job, had eyelash transplants three years ago because she was fed up with wearing extensions on her sandy-colored lashes."When I found out about it, I just had to have it done. Everyone I mention it to wants it. I think eyelashes are awesome. You can never have enough of them," Lynn said.

Bauman, who practices in Florida, does about three or four a month. Dr. Sara Wasserbauer, a Northern California hair restoration surgeon, says she has been inundated by requests."I have been getting a ton of eyelash inquiries ... If I had $10 dollars for every consultation, I'd be a rich woman."
The surgery is not for everyone. The transplanted eyelashes grow just like head hair and need to be trimmed regularly and sometimes curled. Very curly head hair makes for eyelashes with too much kink.

Paul Hunter 1978-2006

In his post match interview following his 2001 Masters title win, Hunter caused a media sensation by admitting he resorted to "Plan B" with Lyndsey, then his girlfriend, during the interval while 6-2 down. The 'B' in "Plan B" purportedly refers to the word "bonk", a British slang term for sexual intercourse. Hunter and Fell retired to their hotel room and he recalls: "Sex was the last thing on my mind. I just wasn't in the mood. But I had to do something to break the tension. It was a quick session - around 10 minutes or so - but I felt great afterwards. She jumped in the bath, I had a kip and then played like a dream. I reeled off four centuries in six frames. I won easily."

New York Crashes Series


At 9:49 a.m. on Saturday July 28, 1945, a B-25 Mitchell bomber flying in a thick fog accidentally crashed into the north side between the 79th and 80th floors, where the offices of the National Catholic Welfare Council were located; one engine shot through the side opposite the impact and another plummeted down an elevator shaft. The fire was extinguished in 40 minutes. 14 people were killed in the accident.

Movie fanatic





Kim Jong Il is a movie fanatic, and has a collection of over
20,000 films32. In 1978, in order to advance the North Korean
film industry, he ordered North Korean agents to abduct the
famous South Korean movie director Shin Sang Ok and his ex-wife,
actress Che Eun Hui, and kept them for eight years while making
them produce propaganda films. As mentioned above, during that
time, the two became very well acquainted with Kim Jong Il, and
after escaping in 1986, they wrote a book exposing his decadent

chase away those annoying teenagers!!!

The Mosquito ultrasonic teenage deterrent is the solution to the eternal problem of unwanted gatherings of youths and teenagers in shopping malls, around shops and anywhere else they are causing problems. The presence of these teenagers discourages genuine shoppers and customers’ from coming into your shop, affecting your turnover and profits.
Anti social behavior has become the biggest threat to private property over the last decade and there has been no effective deterrent until now.
Acclaimed by the Police forces of many areas of the United Kingdom, the Mosquito ultrasonic teenage deterrent has been described as “the most effective tool in our fight against anti social behaviour”. Shop keepers around the world have purchased the device to move along unwanted gatherings of teenagers and anti social youths. Railway companies have placed the device to discourage youths from spraying graffiti on their trains and the walls of stations. With an effective range of between fifteen and twenty meters Compound Security Systems’ field trials have shown that teenagers are acutely aware of the Mosquito and usually move away from the area within an average of 8- 10 minutes. The system is completely harmless even with long term use.

Purchase mosquito now!

Bloody Singularity

In futures studies, the singularity represents an "event horizon" in the predictability of human technological development past which present models of the future cease to give reliable or accurate answers, following the creation of strong AI or the enhancement of human intelligence.
Many futurists predict that after the singularity, humans as they exist presently won't be the driving force in scientific and technological progress, eclipsed cognitively by posthumans, AI, or both, with all models of change based on past trends in human behavior becoming obsolete.
In the 1950’s, the legendary information theorist John von Neumann was paraphrased by mathematician Stanislaw Lem as saying that “the ever-accelerating progress of technology… gives the appearance of approaching some essential singularity in the history of the race beyond which human affairs, as we know them, could not continue.”

Life Extension

Life extension is a movement, a revolution, that works to stop aging through scientific research, much like heart doctors work to save the heart, so you can live an indefinitely healthy life. It is a growing wave that you can jump on right now and ride into the future, and witness from the front row as it tsunami bombs the wall of obliteration that we call aging.

The mission of ImmInst is to conquer the blight of involuntary death.
ImmInst shall function as an umbrella organization to help its members succeed in working towards the possibility of human physical immortality.
This Institute shall serve as a platform for the exhibition, exchange, debate, and creation of concepts and methods toward that end as well as to physical immortality.

SENS is a detailed plan for curing human aging. SENS is an engineering project, recognising that aging is a medical condition and that medicine is a branch of engineering. Aging is a set of progressive changes in body composition, at the molecular and cellular level, which are side-effects of essential metabolic processes. Many of these changes are eventually bad for us -- they are an accumulation of damage, which becomes pathogenic above a certain threshold of abundance.

Why we should do all we can to hasten the defeat of human aging...

Desabafos...

Nuno, eu voto no Júlio de Matos mas para os adeptos do Benfica. O Luís é apenas um mafioso que gosta de fazer dos outros parvos e que um dia diz que admira o Valentim - e vota nele - enquanto no outro critica-o por causa do Apito ou que diz que admira o trabalho feito pelo Leal e no outro fala de um polvo que está na direcção da Liga para dar cabo do futebol português. Vá-se lá entender o que vai naquela cabecinha pensadora...E com os adeptos a aplaudirem de pé sempre que ele abre a boca! Merecem ou não o Júlio de Matos? Eu penso que sim.
Meus amigos bLues... é a revolta dos medíocres, meus amigos... a revolta dos medíocres!!Deixem-no falar... porque enquanto assim andar, é bom sinal, muito bom sinal.Quando ele se calar, é que aí sim, teremos que estar atentos... até lá, deixem-no lamber as feridas.
Deixem-no falar... porque enquanto assim andar, é bom sinal, muito bom sinal Disseste tudo! O problema dele é sentir que perdeu poder com as eleições mas cão que ladra não morde!!!

A Paranóia, de Júlio de Mattos

Um d'estes, notavel entre todos, é o de um paranoico-originario, que já aos 17 annos se cria victima de tentativas de envenenamento e em quem sempre uma exaggerada autophilia se notou. Mas, nem as idéas de perseguição, nem a hyperbolica opinião dos seus meritos lhe embargaram o passo no curso de direito, que concluiu. Ridiculo e profundamente desequilibrado, de grande memoria e de pequena reflexão, desconfiado, phantasista e discursador, foi fazendo o seu caminho até delegado de procurador regio na India Portuguesa. Ahi, excessos de toda a ordem, juntos a uma febre biliosa, aggravaram-lhe o mal; regressando, muito fraco, á metropole, systematisava o seu delirio até ao ponto de viver só e de passar habitualmente a ovos e a agua, que elle proprio ia colher de noite ás fontes. Um dia, tendo chamado a casa um operario para lhe encadernar uns livros, foi por este traiçoeiramente aggredido, recebendo na cabeça um extenso e profundo traumatismo. A partir d'esse dia, allucinações auditivas, que até então parecia não terem existido, irromperam com extranha violencia; ao mesmo tempo apossou-se do doente um sentimento intenso de terror e de anciedade que o levou, poucos dias depois do traumatismo, a projectar-se de uma janella abaixo, fazendo uma luxação. Simultaneamente, illusões visuaes, confusão constante de pessoas, rejeição de alimentos e absoluta insomnia. Trazido ao hospital, persistiu algum tempo n'esta situação; rapidamente, porém, idéas de grandeza, se juntaram. O encadernador, tentando matal-o, foi apenas um instrumento de quem, por inveja do seu alto genio incomparavel, buscava desfazer-se d'elle. Tornou-se aggressivo então, fabricando uma nova religião, crendo-se superior a Christo, e começou a manifestar idéas eroticas e allucunações visuaes: masturbava-se, dizia obscenidades, proclamava as excellencias da pederastia, dos amores lesbicos, e via mulheres núas em attitudes lascivas. Mas, subitamente, derivou a idéas hypocondriacas e d'estas a um delirio de humildade, rojando-se no chão, beijando os pés dos companheiros, chorando, pedindo perdão a todos, rejeitando os alimentos n'um intuito de penitencia. Pouco a pouco resvallou no mutismo, a physionomia tornou-se-lhe parada, inexpressiva, contrahiu habitos immundos, apresentou, n'uma palavra, o quadro da demencia com accentuada desnutrição. Por mezes persistiu n'este estado, indifferente a sollicitações naturaes, deitado sobre bancos ou no chão da enfermaria, movendo-se como um automato, não respondendo a ninguem.
Julguei-o então perdido e cheguei a consignar com segurança esta impressão clinica. Mas um dia, abruptamente, o doente dirige-se a mim, cumprimenta-me polidamente e diz-me que se sente, emfim, restabelecido, que deseja sahir, que quer escrever uma carta a um irmão para que venha buscado. Do pseudo-demente nada restava; a datar d'esse dia ficou o primitivo delirante, o perseguido-ambicioso quasi sem allucinações, que podia viver fóra do hospital e que eu, com effeito, deixei sahir algum tempo depois.
Isto passou-se em 1884; de então até hoje fez o doente duas novas entradas no hospital, reproduzindo quasi sem variantes o quadro que vimos de esboçar. Conta-me um irmão que o aggravamento da doença se manifesta sempre por uma subita explosão de allucinações, succedendo a excessos venereos e alcoolicos.
