New eyeball licking fetish spreading pink eye among Japanese adolescents - 



Pink eye cases have been spreading among Japanese school children as a result of a new bizarre fetish: “eyeball licking.”
In a post by the Japanese website Naver Matome, the curious act – known as oculolinctus – is described as an expression of intimacy between young lovers, Medical Daily reported. The article listed numerous accounts of the fetish from Japanese web users, and various videos of eyeball licking are available on Youtube – with some posted to the site as early as 2006.
One of the accounts in the Naver Matome post was from a Japanese middle school teacher, who detailed how he had noticed an increasing number of styes among his students.  At one point, he said up to 10 children in the same classroom were wearing eye patches to school.
The teacher said he finally understood the reason for the rise in eye problems, when he witnessed a male student licking a female student’s eye in the school’s gymnasium.  After yelling at them to stop, the couple explained to the teacher that they had recently started dating and wanted to move beyond just kissing.  They also explained the act had become popular among their classmates.

Man Calls Cops to Complain About Ugly Prostitute... -

Man Calls Cops to Complain About Ugly Prostitute... - 



A MAN dialled 999 to complain to police that a prostitute was UGLY after meeting her outside a hotel.
The caller told West Midlands Police he wanted "to report her for breaching the Sale of Goods Act".
But an officer in the call centre at Solihull, Birmingham, responded by telling the man the woman had not committed any offences and explained to him that soliciting for sex was illegal.
The force has now sent the man a letter warning him about wasting police time.
A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “A 999 call was received by police at around 7:30pm on Tuesday evening from a man wishing to complain about a sex worker he had met on a hotel car park.
“The caller claimed that the woman had made out she was better looking than she actually was and he wished to report her for breaching the Sale of Goods Act.
“When he raised this issue with the woman concerned, she allegedly took his car keys, ran away from the car and threw them back at him, prompting him to call police.

SESAME STREET Designs Online Kit for Kids with Parents in Prison... -

SESAME STREET Designs Online Kit for Kids with Parents in Prison... - 



Sesame Street has created and an online kit designed to help children cope with the emotional issues associated with having incarcerated parents.  Nearly two million U.S. children have a parent in prison and according to the kit's web site, "The incarceration of a loved one can be very overwhelming for both children and caregivers. It can bring about big changes and transitions. In simple everyday ways, you can comfort your child and guide her through these tough moments. With your love and support she can get through anything that comes her way."
The kit is aimed at children between the ages of 3 and 8 and offers videos including a musical number entitled "You're Not Alone" as well as an animated video with the title "Visiting Dad In Prison." 
Another goal of the kit is to provide caregivers with the necessary tools to help the children cope.
For example. Tip 6 helps a caregiver prepare a child before a visit to the big house: "Before you visit your incarcerated loved one," the kit says, "let your child know some of the things she can expect to happen. For instance, ‘We won't be able to sit in the same room with Mommy, but we can see her through a window and read a story together.'"
It also comes as a mobile app.

220-pound flying bicycle test flight a success -

220-pound flying bicycle test flight a success - 


Cycling through heavy traffic can be a risky affair, with vehicles jumping from lane to lane without warning, and pedestrians appearing from nowhere as they risk life and limb to get from one side to the other.
It’d be so much safer if you could avoid these hazards by simply flying above them, while keeping an eye out for low bridges and power lines, naturally.
The idea of a flying bicycle may sound a little far-fetched, but in the Czech capital Prague on Wednesday a group of local companies – including Technodat, Evektor and Duratec – gathered to test out a prototype of such a machine.
The bicycle, which has been in development for a while now, stayed airborne for several minutes (video below), though its creators, presumably fearing the flight may result in a mangled mess, stuck a dummy in the saddle instead of a living, breathing human being.
But they needn’t have worried, as the 220-pound bicycle’s test flight went without a hitch.
The radio-controlled flight was made possible by the bicycle’s six battery-powered propellers, which makes the contraption look a bit like an enormous RC quadcopter. Though the bicycle looked pretty stable during its flight, its large propellers make it look cumbersome to ride and its size means such a bike would face limitations as to where it could go, especially in urban areas. And then there’s all those aforementioned overhead hazards to think about.
Speaking about the project to local news site Ceske Noviny, project participant Ales Kobylik said, “Our main motivation in working on the project was neither profit nor commercial interest, but the fulfillment of our boyish dreams.”
The team said they hope to stick a real life human in the saddle this fall, doing away with the need for a radio controller.
After that, who knows what plans they have for the flying bicycle, though it may be some time before you’ll have a chance to recreate the large-moon-and-a-bicycle scene from ET. I mean, even if you have access to a flying bike, you’ll still need to find a really big moon.

GOOGLEPROOF: Making yourself Unsearchable becomes Chic... -

GOOGLEPROOF: Making yourself Unsearchable becomes Chic... - 



Internet anonymity is the height of chic
In this age of information overload, internet exhibitionism and NSA snooping, is it possible to make yourself unGoogleable? And does it earn you added credibility, as fashion designer Phoebe Philo suggest?

'The chicest thing," said fashion designer Phoebe Philo recently, "is when you don't exist on Google. God, I would love to be that person!"

Philo, creative director of Céline, is not that person. As the London Evening Standard put it: "Unfortunately for the famously publicity-shy London designer – Paris born, Harrow-on-the-Hill raised – who has reinvented the way modern women dress, privacy may well continue to be a luxury." Nobody who is oxymoronically described as "famously publicity-shy" will ever be unGoogleable. And if you're not unGoogleable then, if Philo is right, you can never be truly chic, even if you were born in Paris. And if you're not truly chic, then you might as well die – at least if you're in fashion.

If she truly wanted to disappear herself from Google, Philo could start by changing her superb name to something less diverting. Prize-winning novelist AM Homes is an outlier in this respect. Google "am homes" and you're in a world of blah US real estate rather than cutting-edge literature. But then Homes has thought a lot about privacy, having written a play about the most famously private person in recent history, JD Salinger, and had him threaten to sue her as a result.

And Homes isn't the only one to make herself difficult to detect online. UnGoogleable bands are 10 a penny. The New York-based band !!! (known verbally as "chick chick chick" or "bang bang bang" – apparently "Exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point" proved too verbose for their meagre fanbase) must drive their business manager nuts. As must the band Merchandise, whose name – one might think – is a nominalist satire of commodification by the music industry. Nice work, Brad, Con, John and Rick.

Manitoba restaurant stops selling giant hamburger "for obvious reasons" -

Manitoba restaurant stops selling giant hamburger "for obvious reasons" - 



A fast-food restaurant in Manitoba has backtracked on its offer to make customers a burger fit for Fred Flintstone.
Barb Barker, an administrative assistant for the Wendy's outlet in Brandon, said Wednesday night that they have stopped selling their T. Rex burger, consisting of nine quarter-pound patties held together by nine pieces of processed cheese and a flimsy bun.
"For obvious reasons, Wendy's of Brandon neither condones nor promotes the idea of anyone consuming a nine-patty hamburger in one sitting," said Barker, reading from a prepared statement.
She said the fast-food restaurant "strives to deliver a positive dining experience for our customers. Our goal is to provide options to our customers so they can make options that meet their needs."
The $21.99 burger started out as a joke ad in Sports Illustrated nine years ago, but customers came in asking for the real thing. The restaurant obliged and started selling two to three giant burgers a day.
Weighing in at around a whopping 3,000 calories, the T. Rex burger had more calories than many people consume in a day. To the dismay of dieticians, it also contained roughly 200 grams of fat — triple the daily allowance — and an eye-watering 6,000 grams of sodium, enough to last the average adult four days.
Carla Taylor, a professor in human nutritional science at the University of Manitoba, said the T. Rex sent the wrong message.
"Food is something I don't think we can treat in this way," she said. "We need to get appreciating good food ... of appropriate portion size."
While many fast-food chains have made concerted efforts in the last few years to offer healthier choices — such as salads, fruit and low-fat muffins — there are still menu items that unabashedly embrace unhealthy indulgence. And it appears the United States out-greases Canada at the cooking line: nutritional nightmares seem to originate south of the border.
There's KFC's infamous "double down" sandwich — bacon, cheese and "special sauce" between two pieces of battered chicken — which originated in the U.S. before making its way to Canada. Dunkin' Donuts is offering American connoisseurs an unusual breakfast sandwich — bacon and egg between two glazed doughnuts.
Consuming that combination of fat, sodium and calories in one sitting might appeal to some, but Taylor said it should be a once-in-a-lifetime indulgence.
"Maybe somebody wants to try it once for the challenge," she said. "But I think the better challenge is to look at how to eat healthy every day and think long term about how the foods you're putting in your mouth are impacting on your health."

The $3 Million RV - Marchi Mobile EleMMent Palazzo is a rolling excess machine -

The $3 Million RV - Marchi Mobile EleMMent Palazzo is a rolling excess machine - 



Your average Class-A motorhome is an expensive machine fitted with a standard array of luxurious features. Be it granite counter tops, stainless appliances, flat-screen TVs, or quadruple pop outs, upgrading a coach is an easy affair if you've got the bucks. What if you want more though... much more. Marchi Mobile has the recreational vehicle that you've been dreaming about. Or maybe it's having nightmares about, depending on which part you're viewing.
The Marchi Mobile EleMMent Palazzo is a rolling tribute to excess and wealth. It's also packed with style, both good and bad. The exterior looks like a genetically mutated oversized Pontiac Aztek from the future, sent back in time to kill all who made the original vehicle.
Inside, however, it's a completely different story if you're a fan of modern design and style. There's a great use of space, ultra luxurious furniture and appliance choices. A jet-like gangway unfolds to provide access to the interior, which can be massively expanded by the oversized pop-out slider. There's even a pop-up rooftop bar for when you're parked and want to become emperor of the local RV parking section.
A large diesel engine provides power for this exotic rolling rig, and it spits out emissions through a pair of exhaust outlets mounted under a rear diffuser. We don't imagine that improves handling, but it looks pretty cool.
So what would it take to add this machine to your luxury stable? About $3 million. It's certainly cheaper and more comfortable than a jet.
