En la semana the smoking gun encontró esta joya de mugshot:
JULY 21--Meet Patrick Tribett. The Ohio man was nabbed yesterday morning for "abusing harmful intoxicants" as he attempted to make a purchase at Bellaire's Dollar General Store. The 41-year-old Tribett, it seems, had been huffing spray paint and needed a refill. According to a Bellaire Police Department report, Tribett's pupils were constricted and he replied slowly to their questions. Oh, and "officers observed the paint on face and hands," as can be seen in the below mug shot. Tribett, who was previously busted for assault, domestic violence, and inhaling harmful intoxicants, was booked into the Belmont County Sheriff's Office lockup. His booking photo immediately joins TSG's pantheon of favorite kooky mug shots

Artículo de Alarcon que describe la relación de dos personajes masculinos que al parecer estan más interesados el uno en el otro, que en resto del mundo:
There’s nothing more interesting than the homoerotic tension between two strapping young lads (who may or may not be gay) in a movie. There’s something about it that stirs up the most uncomfortable emotions in even the most liberal of us. Kind of like when your boss accidentally kisses you full on the lips during the office Christmas party. There are hundreds of movies where the two male leads seemingly fall in love with each other, and here are the first five in an ongoing series dedicated to young men in love.
Estas películas son revisadas con detalles:
Top Gun (1986)
Spartacus (1960)
Batman & Robin (1997)
The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)

Regine de WMMNA debería de reportar esto, pero esta medio incomunicada, así que:
the centerpiece pavilion of the the sixth swiss national
exhibition is a suspended platform shrouded in a perpetual
cloud of man - made fog,
designed by architects elizabeth diller and ricardo scofidio.
the cloud can host up to 400 visitors.
the so called 'blur pavillion' is visible from afar.
the building consists of a 60 x 100 x 20 - metre metal
construction that sprays innumerable tiny drops of lake water
from 31400 jets. the high-pressure spraying technology
ensures that the fleeting sculpture will be visible in all
weathers, rain or shine.
the high-pressure spraying is carried out by high-grade
steel jets with tiny apertures only 120 microns in diameter,
through which the water is forced at a pressure of 80 bars
onto fine needlepoints directly above the apertures and
atomised into innumerable tiny droplets 4 to 10 microns
in diameter. the droplets are so small that most of them
remain suspended in the air. if sufficient jets are installed in a
specific volume, they saturate the air with moisture and
create the effect of mist or, in this case, the effect known
as the blur.
Excelente mezcla de arquitectura, naturaleza y arte.

Pues resulta que Body Modification Ezine, la autoridad en todo lo body modification. Publicó una artículo donde no recomienda que los piercing de corset sea hagan con anillos tradicionales:
Yes, these piercings will look nice for a little while, but not long afterwards they will start to get irritated, reject, and the women will be left not with a pretty set of rings, but with two rows of scars running up their backs where the piercings once were. Depending on their skin type and how long the piercings were kept, these scars may be highly visible, noticeably uneven, and can stay with them for life — as much as they may come with good memories, they are likely not the result hoped for when the wearer first saw the piercings and thought how pretty they looked.
Su consejo es utilizar otro tipo de piercings y no anillos.
There is jewelry designed to deal with these placements — surface bars most obviously, which can be fitted with beads that have rings mounted on them, and while not quite as graphic in appearance, come close to the look of rings alone and actually can be healed. For other people flexible jewelry such as Tygon or PTFE-based bars have been successful, but I believe surface bars are a far better option. Even transdermal implants do better than captive bead rings. It’s still not going to be easy, and the piercings or implants will have to be babied for a long time before they can really be called healed, but at least it moves it into the realm of the possible and worth doing for something other than a photo or a two-day fantasy.

Muchas mujeres embarazadas en el horizonte, estas van dedicadas a ellas:
esta cama resuelve preguntas que me hacía: Si me embarazara ( dejando de lado el milagro de la ciencia y el millón de dólares que me pagaría National Enquirer : "Primer hombre embarazado!! fotos en la página 2!) como le haría para dormir, ya que yo duermo boca abajo, y dormir boca arriba me da pesadillas y aparentemente ronco... bueno esta cama ya me tiene haciendome menos preguntas.

Después de pasar a los tipos que se tatuan para ser anuncios ambulantes, se me hace curioso este "branding" (que buen y que literal verbo) de esta patineta:
A woman who was branded with letters from the Consolidated Edison logo when she fell off a skateboard onto a searing hot manhole cover in Manhattan last year filed a lawsuit Thursday seeking unspecified damages from the utility.
Elizabeth C. Wallenberg, 27, was burned just above her buttocks and on her left arm when she fell off her skateboard onto a cover over a steam pipe at Second Avenue and 13th Street in the East Village shortly after midnight on Aug. 11, 2004, said her lawyer Ronald Berman.
"It literally looked like a brand that had been applied by someone," Berman said about the burn marks left on Wallenberg's body.
por supuesto siendo Estados Unidos, la demanda se pone un poco loca:
The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan's state Supreme Court, accused Con Ed of "negligence, carelessness, recklessness and culpable conduct" related to Wallenberg's injuries.
Court papers said Wallenberg, now a factory worker who lives in Portland, Ore., is entitled to compensatory and punitive damages because of Con Ed's "reprehensible and egregious failure and refusal ... to protect the public from this manifestly clear and present danger."
Con Ed spokesman Chris Olert said he had no comment on the lawsuit.
