YouTube + Soldier = Hollywood Date

Amer­ican solider, Ser­geant Scott Moore, engaged his Kevlar-cladded balls and pos­ted a video on You­Tube ask­ing act­ress Mila Kunis to the upcom­ing Mar­ine Corps Ball.

The high­light of the Amer­ican mil­it­ary social cal­en­dar, the ball marks the found­ing of the Mar­ines in 1775.

A day later, on an unre­lated TV inter­view, Mila was sur­prised when the inter­viewer asked her about the video. A brief explan­a­tion later, and with some egging on from co-interview Justin Tim­ber­lake, Mila accep­ted!

Although her PR agent has yet to con­firm the arrange­ments, it is believed that she will in fact attend as promised.

With the bulk of the Mar­ines assumedly excited, and a grow­ing video archive to prove her words, let’s hope she keeps her promise.

War aside, I would ima­gine Ser­geant Moore is more than a little nervous.

I can just ima­gine the flood of sim­ilar videos that will no doubt soon flood You­Tube ask­ing for Dates with the world’s most fam­ous lovelies.

On that note, Kristin/Shakira, I’m free this weekend…

A Womb — With A View

The world’s first mother-daughter uterus trans­plant could take place next year in Sweden, the head of an inter­na­tional research team in the west­ern Swedish city of Gothen­burg said Tuesday.

We have reached a stage where we have star­ted to plan for a human trans­plant and we are invest­ig­at­ing 10 pairs, most of those are mother and daugh­ters,” Mats Braen­stroem told AFP, adding the first of such trans­plants could take place “hope­fully at the begin­ning of next year.”

He added that trans­plant­ing a womb from a woman to her daugh­ter would be a world first, although a uterus trans­plant between two unre­lated women took place in Saudi Ara­bia in 2002.

His inter­na­tional team of doc­tors at the Sahl­grenska Uni­ver­sity Hos­pital has been research­ing the sub­ject for a dec­ade and has tested it on anim­als, he said, explain­ing there were no par­tic­u­lar com­plic­a­tions in trans­plant­ing a womb from mother to daughter.

There can just be an advant­age because they are more sim­ilar in their tis­sues so there could be less rejec­tion in that situ­ation,” he said.

One of the pairs under­go­ing the phys­ical and psy­cho­lo­gical tests required ahead of a pos­sible pro­ced­ure were quoted in Swedish media Tues­day as say­ing they were grate­ful to be part of the project.

I have been given an oppor­tun­ity I did not think was pos­sible,” a 25-year old woman born without a uterus told tabloid Expressen.

I have always loved chil­dren. Over the past five years I have felt intense sor­row over not being able to have chil­dren of my own,” she told its com­pet­itor Aftonbladet.

The woman could receive a uterus from her 56-year-old mother, who said she no longer had any use for the organ and that it felt nat­ural to do everything she could to help her daughter.

I think all par­ents do what they can to help their chil­dren if it feels right,” she told Aftonbladet.

The daugh­ter insisted receiv­ing the womb she her­self emerged from was not a cause for concern.

It’s an organ just like any other and it has no genetic sig­ni­fic­ance. I work as a bio­logy teacher and I don’t think its strange,” she told Expressen.

The world’s first uterus trans­plant took place in 2002 when doc­tors in Saudi Ara­bia trans­planted the womb of a 46-year-old woman to a 26-year-old.

Although blood clots forced the doc­tors to remove the trans­planted organ after 14 weeks, they claimed tech­nical suc­cess in the procedure.

Braen­stroem said such com­plic­a­tions would be less likely in the Swedish transplants.

We have optim­ised the tech­nique in our animal mod­els for such a long time. The Saudi Ara­bia team didn’t have any exper­i­ence at all in animal mod­els before. They did it in humans right away,” he explained.

In 2007, sci­ent­ists planned the first uterus trans­plant in the United States, but the pro­ced­ure never went bey­ond the screen­ing stage.

The research front has moved for­ward since 2007 and espe­cially our group has taken big steps for­ward in this research, so that’s why we think we are ready to do this,” Braen­stroem said.

Amaz­ing, isn’t it?

The fact that we are able to oper­ate a fleshy chop-shop, irre­spect­ive of the ori­gin­at­ing state, loc­ale and type of the donor is truly astounding.

Hearts, liv­ers and kid­neys are com­mon­place. Even the lungs today are cap­able of being stripped from a wreck and trans­planted into a future sports model.

The womb though, that raises an encyclopaedia’s worth of questions.

The abil­ity to per­form it is not in doubt — the moral and men­tal aspect of it how­ever, is — amongst others.

My first ques­tion would surely be one of longev­ity. If we take into account that this trans­plant is deemed to be between a woman in her mid-to-late fourties (the donor) and one in her early-to-mid twen­ties (the recip­i­ent), the ques­tion of men­o­pause surely must be asked? At the donor’s age, most women have a repro­duct­ive sys­tem begin­ning to shut down. What is the use of trans­plant­ing an effect­ively expir­ing organ? Is there a pro­cess in place to extend the meno’?

Secondly, I do note the exper­i­mental phase this pro­cess is engaged in, but will the pref­er­ence always be to use the mother’s womb? What of the mind­set needed by both donor and recip­i­ent? Soci­ety has, in gen­eral, main­tained very strong views against incest. This is backed up many reli­gions and, of course, plenty of legis­la­tion across the globe. Indeed, there is no familial cop­u­la­tion occur­ing, but the fact remains that it shall be pos­sible to con­ceive a grand­child in the grandmother’s womb.

Leg­ally, where does this sit? It is not inces­tu­ous on the one hand because no familial cop­u­la­tion occurred (which, for clarity’s sake pre­cludes typ­ic­ally incest-derived defects with the child, before you assume/ask), but the child is born of the grandmother’s womb, which, argu­ably, is incestuous.

Has coun­selling been provided to both donor and recip­i­ent for this?

Is med­ic­a­tion provided to the recip­i­ent to con­trol organ rejec­tion issues, and if so, what test­ing has been done to ascer­tain the effects of this on pregnancy?

I’m neither for nor against this pro­ced­ure, but it does leave a lot ques­tions hanging in the balance.

What are your views on it? Would you try it? Do you dis­agree with it? Is it right­eous in respect of your beliefs?

Anxiety: The Ana Catarina Bezerra Story

Ana Catar­ina Bezerra, a 36-year-old Brazilian woman, suf­fers from an imbal­ance that trig­gers severe anxi­ety and hypersexuality.Ana found that the only way to relieve her anxi­ety was to masturbate.

This seems all within the realms of reason, except that she real­ised it might be prob­lem when her self-love hit the 47-times-a-day mark.

In April last year, Ana took her employer to court to be allowed to play with her­self at work and now that she’s won, she’s leg­ally entitled to watch porn with her hand up her skirt for 15 minutes every two hours dur­ing office hours.

If it’s just with her­self, does the usual title still apply?

The Blinders That We Wear

Exper­i­ence teaches those of us with visual acu­ity and lat­eral think­ing that, for the most part, sheeple are only con­cerned with what sur­rounds their little world.

It might be polit­ic­ally and humanly cor­rect to send aid to a coun­try you’ve never heard of before, to cam­paign for equal rights for people with three nipples & dis­ten­ded ear canals and to give the beg­gar a couple of coins but on a per­sonal level this is all means nothing.

We’re glad that ‘the war’ is some­where ‘over there’, that the pho­tos of starving kids dis­ap­pear as you flip the news­pa­per page and that the pres­id­ent got some nookie from Mon­ica even though, pub­lic­ally, we abhor it.

Blinders…rhetorical or not, they’re a sofa politician’s best friend.

In my putrid part of the world, at the moment, there is a rather large, extremely impot­ent and severely point­less brouhaha going on — because a local TV sta­tion has decided to screen Naked­News late on a Fri­day night.

Des­pite the name, the sight of a [usu­ally] starry eyed sur­prise greet­ing you is about as close to nil as the num­ber of decent Kar­dashian sex tapes you’re ever likely to find.

Like­wise, another flesh-faltering hum­drum tizz is tak­ing place in the UK…this time though, they’ve nar­rowed down the ocularly-assaulting body parts to the boobs.

Chelsea Charms appeared on the day­time show, the Philip Schofield-hosted This Morn­ing.

Meet Chelsea

OMG! She has huuuuge knock­ers! Hide the kids! Block­ade the doors & win­dows! Call the fuzz!

It seems Ms. Charms is a strip­per and a dancer.

Now, as you can see, Chelsea is neither strip­ping nor dan­cing on the show. In addi­tion, her abund­ant assets are covered adequately.

Chelsea Charms

The show’s Face­book Page how­ever, recor­ded over 4,000 com­ments in rela­tion to her appear­ance. Mostly negative.

The show has been flooded with neg­at­ive feedback.

Why? Your intel­li­gent guess is as good as mine.

Why should a clothed woman, con­duct­ing her­self in a suit­ably polite man­ner dur­ing an inter­view and exhib­it­ing nor­mal beha­viour be scorned?

If the show’s audi­ence were all bra size A and a guest arrived with bra size B, would that be reason to scorn her?

Size C?

…and so on and so forth?

What if a guest arrived with a notice­ably large penis hung down the one leg of his trousers?

A Sia­mese twin with three legs, five arms and two heads? Reason enough?

Per­haps it’s the method behind the result?

Chelsea, from Min­neapolis in the US, got the giant boobs by hav­ing them injec­ted with polypro­pyl­ene — a sub­stance used to make pack­aging. It irrit­ates the breast lin­ing mak­ing them swell — and they are still grow­ing at a rate of one inch a month.

If Chelsea Charms had arrived on the 3rd rock with genes that would ulti­mately give her the same 164XXX size breasts, would the res­ult be the same?

People — there are reces­sions, wars, racial and social bigotry, dis­eases, star­va­tion and cor­rup­tion weights on the scale of prob­lems we face. Are one woman’s boobs really that much of an issue? If at all?

Are we, in 2011, that con­ver­s­at­ive? That prudish? That selfish and insecure?

Fright­fully so it seems.

Devil’s Cushions

Pad­ded Bras are Devil’s Cush­ions” says Coun­cil of Islamic Ideology

By Amna Gil­ani • Mar 10th, 2011

Lahore – The Coun­cil of Islamic Ideo­logy met last night as sched­uled in light of the protests held last month by JUI and other reli­gious parties against the increas­ing import and even­tual use of pad­ded and col­or­ful bras. The Coun­cil also invited shop own­ers who were in the busi­ness of import­ing and selling female under­wear. The Coun­cil advised the shop own­ers to bring lingerie samples, so that the coun­cil could see about what the pro­test­ers were angry.

Last month the pro­test­ers gathered out­side an out­let inside Park Towers and occu­pied the entire floor and chanted slo­gans against pad­ded bras. They asked the gov­ern­ment to put a ban on the import and sale of pad­ded, vibrant, col­or­ful bras and deman­ded legis­la­tion that would out­law the pur­chase of any under­wear that is not white or beige colored.

Pad­ded bras are evil as they make the breasts look big­ger and perky”, said one of the pro­test­ers. “Only devil women show off private parts. Muslim women should be as humble about them as they can. In fact they should be ashamed of their breasts, both of them.” Another pro­tester said that the pur­pose of under­wear is not to accen­tu­ate the curves. “…espe­cially of a woman’s body the breast should not look like they belong to a non-virgin even if she hap­pens to be mar­ried.” he added.

Those lacy bras? They are an abom­in­a­tion! Do you even know how they’re made? They’re made in China by under­fed and underpaid chil­dren. That’s how they’re made.” said a plac­ard that was held by a pro­tester. They chanted slo­gans as the Mall secur­ity stood and watched help­lessly while three female cus­tom­ers and two employ­ees locked them­selves inside the store. The third employee of the store who was on a break before the protest began, joined the pro­test­ers and was cheered up on by the crowd after she announced, “I will not wear these sin­ful, men-attracting pad­ded bras that make my jugs look juicy.” She then ripped out her bra and threw it on the ground where the pro­test­ers stomped on it repeatedly. She was later thrown an abaya by someone in the crowd.

After the meet­ing of the Coun­cil was over, the recom­mend­a­tion was released to the media that says, “Pad­ded bras are Devil’s cush­ions and he likes to rest of them. The Coun­cil of Islamic Ideology is recom­mending that Pakistani Muslim research­ers should try to invent a bra that makes the female chest area unnotice­able.

Zakir Naik, one of the lead­ing Islamic schol­ars com­men­ted on the situ­ation that if the Pakistani gov­ern­ment approves of the fund­ing grant for this research and if Pakistan is suc­cess­ful at mak­ing such a bra that makes the chest of women unnotice­able, Pakistan might become the biggest exporter for Shariah compliant under­wear. He said that he’d per­son­ally sign and send the first of these Shariah-bra to Veena Malik [Pakistani act­ress, model and comedi­enne — left] and Ali Saleem [Pakistani cross­dresser — right].

Cour­tesy Roz­nama Jawani

Of course this is all in STARK con­trast to Pakistan’s title as “the world’s No. 1 con­sumer of on-line por­no­graphy.

Talk about hypocrisy.

Blogged Boobies

Ever been per­plexed as to Zooey Deschanel’s bra size? 34B.

How about Kate Beckin­sale, Kate Mara or Kristin Kreuk? 32B, 34B and 32B respectively.

In a world where everything and everything you could, need or haven’t yet men­tally con­ceived, I sup­pose I shouldn’t be sur­prised to find that a ‘site like brasizefinder.com exists.

Who wouldn’t need such a handy and use­ful tool?

All of these lovely ladies would have my atten­tion with the bat of an eye­lid, whether I knew their bra size or not.

What gets me though, is how does the web­site owner attain all of his — or her — tit­il­lat­ing knowledge?

I have yet to see an inter­view where the inter­viewer asks the lady in the spot­light what the size of her squishy bits is.

Is is just me or do you also have vis­ions of some for­got­ten geek in a base­ment some­where siz­ing up the peaks using some selfmade software?

For an added dash of bizarre coupled with odd, check out the blogroll past the first link detail­ing other strange celebrity traits.
