Circumcising the Babbie

So, what do you think about it? Most men simply wince when the subject of circumcision comes up but it's something ofan important subject now.

There's good evidence that it reduices the liklihood of getting HIV as well as a number of other diseases and cancers. So maybe it should just become routine?


The usual argument on hteother side is that it reduces sensitivity and thus sexual pleasure. But if you think about it, reduced sensitivity will lead to longer sex, thus more total pleasure.

So maybe circumcision is a good idea for that reason alone?

Wannabee Actors

You really do want to go and have a look at this post on Perry Caravello. Seriously, the things people will do to try and get into the movies.

At some point surely he realized that he was being taken for a mug?

Rustam Dzhumaliyev

Something of a pity this:

A Russian fugitive evaded arrest and became a minor celebrity by masquerading as a U.S. citizen hitch-hiking across the country for a record attempt, the state security service said Monday.

Unsuspecting national television stations broadcast reports on an attempt by the man, who spoke only in English and wore an orange bandana, to claim a place in the record books by crossing Russia with no money or travel documents.

But despite the publicity, he was not recognized.

He was finally picked up by police after being spotted loitering at a university in the Volga river city of Samara, over 8,000 km (5,000 miles) from his native Primorye region, on Russia's Pacific coast.

Managing to get 5,000 miles and still getting picked up? Bad luck, eh?

Larry King Surgery

The veteran journalist and TV star Larry King is recovering from surgery:

Veteran CNN talk show host Larry King had surgery on Friday to clear an artery blockage but plans to return to work on Monday to interview U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama, the network said.

King, 73, emerged from the scheduled operation without any complications and was alert and talking to his staff by the afternoon, CNN spokeswoman Bridget Leininger said.

"He was actually already giving orders to us for Monday," she said.

The operation, called a carotid endarterectomy, removes plaque that can build up in a patient's carotid artery, a blood vessel that supplies the neck and head.

The procedure was performed on King at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Leininger said.

"Larry is doing great and he is excited to be back on the air Monday night with an interview with Sen. Barack Obama as we mark the fourth anniversary of the Iraq war," CNN said in a statement.

Wish him well.

Instant Credit Cards

One of the terribly frustrating things about applying for credit, whether it's a loan or more directly a credit card, is the wait. The time they take to mull over your application and then let you know whether you've been accepted or not.

It's also something of a pain trying to work out exactly which credit card you should apply for. There are so many different offers, with different interest rates, fees, cashbacks and so on that you can get entirely lost trying to work it all out.

Fortunately there's a solution to both problems. Instant credit cards are those that are approved immediately, online, when you aply for them. If you click through that link you'll be taken to a site which is a comparison engine for credit cards. You decide which of he various possible features are the most important for you and the system will then guide you to the offer which best matches your needs.

It's a very clever little application actually and well worth a look.

Kate Moss and Pete Doherty Marriage

Kate Moss and Pete Doherty are said to be in a rush to get married.

Kate Moss and Pete Doherty have revealed they want to tie the knot as soon as legally possible.

Supermodel Kate said after last week's NME Awards (March 1), "I just want to be with my boyfriend. He's wild, crazy, but he's cool."

And Pete added, "We want a special wedding and we want to don't want to do it here, there's too much sh*t here. Somewhere small and out of the way would be cool. We can't wait, it will be beautiful."

Meanwhile, Kate said the pair's life is not as crazy as it's painted in the tabloids, and that once hitched they'll live a life of domestic bliss.

Talking to the News Of The World, she said, "I can't understand all in the interest in us any more. I'd rather be at home with him. We don't go out much."

The pair have even decided on a best man. Pete's old Libertines band mate Carl Barat has revealed he's the lucky bloke.

Important news I hope you'll agree. I expect that they and their drug habits will be very happy together.

Anna Nicole Smith: Finally Buried

Anna Nicole Smith was finally buried on Friday:

Anna Nicole Smith may have finally been buried on Friday afternoon, over three weeks after the TrimSpa model and Playboy Playmate died at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, but not only is her story far from over with paternity battles yet to be determined, but the resting place of the larger-than-life figure has become the number one tourist hotspot in the Bahamas.

The New York Daily News spoke to a cab driver who tells them that the tourists who get off cruise ships in the Bahamas don't want the local flavor as much as they want to see the grave of Anna Nicole Smith - "Everybody wants to see this. People are getting off the cruise ships, and this is where they want to come. The tourism board...can't buy the kind of exposure they had here the last few weeks."

TMZ reports that it's not just cruise ship riders with good timing, but that some people have already booked tours to the Bahamas just to visit the grave of Anna Nicole Smith. They note that on Saturday, Larry Birkhead - the former lover of Anna Nicole and the alleged father of Dannielynn, her five month-old daughter - was at the Bahamas airport waiting for a ride back home and even posed for a few pictures with tourists.

Now all we have to look forward to is the unedifying fight over who gets the kid's money: that's why so many men are claiming to be its father.

Business Credit Cards

So, just how do you work out which is the best business credit card for you to use?

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of issuers, all with their own different angles and offers for you to consider. Do you need to have the lowest interest rate possible? Or are fees and charges more important for you? Or do you want to be able to have zero interest balances, or transfer balances from another card?

Perhaps the thing that is most important for your business is the ability to track spending? A proper report each month of what was spent when and where?

Fortunately, you can in fact do this the easy way, simply by clicking through the link above. There you will find a comparison engine. Decide which of the various available features are indeed most important to you and then it will guide you through which offers actually meet your requirements.

A very decent little site and gadget actually, extremely helpful.

Britney Spears, Robbie Williams and Simon Cowell

Somehow you just knew that this Britney Spears story would bring a comment from Simon Cowell. He also manages to have a go at Robbie Williams in the process:

Music mogul SIMON COWELL has blasted troubled stars BRITNEY SPEARS and ROBBIE WILLIAMS for checking into rehab, insisting they have no idea of what hard life really is.
The AMERICAN IDOL judge recently visited an impoverished nation and after witnessing the horrific conditions people were forced to live in, he believes Spears and Williams' problems pale in comparison.
Spears is currently in Promises in Malibu, California following months of hard-drinking and partying, while Williams is seeking treatment for an addiction to painkillers at The Meadows clinic in Arizona.
Cowell says, "This whole thing is a total indulgence. Britney and Robbie need to get a grip.
"I don't know what's going on in Britney's head but my attitude is I couldn't care less. She should go back and live with her mum for six months.

Britney Spears Suicide Story

The Britney Spears suicide story is all over the papers today, right around the world. There are some though who don't actually believe it:

Someone is desperately trying to get our attention.

Either it's Britney Spears who allegedly tried to hang herself after writing 666 on her forehead and running through the halls of Promises rehab in Malibu, or it's the news agency who is spreading these rumors.

Personally we don't believe the story because Britney's "friend" reportedly says that the rehab center doesn't know what to do with the allegedly wild pop princess, which is unreal because we doubt any rehab institution worth its thousands of dollars a week wouldn't know how to handle freaked out celebs.

But it's a slow news day and it's always fun to Photoshop people's heads into Eddie from Iron Maiden's body, plus if it's true you'd be mad at us for not telling you - as you should be.

The ordeal began when she terrified staff by writing the number of the beast on her head and running around the clinic screaming, "I am the anti-christ!"

"The clinic people just didn't know what to do," a friend claimed.

The pop star then tried to hang herself with a bedsheet was but was found before she could hurt herself. - News.com

Maybe Brit will cover Maiden's "Runnin Free" on her next cd?

It is indeed worth pointing out that the story orginally appeared in hte News of the World (not the most reliable source) and quoted a "friend".

Credit Cards

We all of use face something of a problem when we try to work out which of the multitudes of credit card offerings out there is actually the best for us. There are hundreds upon hundreds, if not thousands, of issuers and all of them have a slightly different set of things that you can have.

Zero interest balance transfers, longer repayment periods, cahsbacks opportunities perhaps, even a percentage of the money going to a charity. Or even some of them compete on the interest rates you are charged, or the fees payable.

So, with all of these differences, how do you work out which are the best credit cards?

Click through that link for the answer, what you do is to use a comparison engine. First you go through the various options, deciding which are the most important to you. Then the engine itself will tell you which of the cards on offer best matches your needs.

It's a very cute little idea and one that's extremely helpful as well as easy to use. Highly recommended.

California Driver Education

Certainly things have changed since I was there: driver education in California now requires that you take a state approved test before you can get your learner's permit. I am glad that wasn't in place when I took my California driver's test: I would never have managed to do what I did, arrive in the country and rent a condo, buy a car, get a licence, get the house furnished and everything insured in just 8 days.

However, don't despair, there are simple ways to deal with the problem. One option is to get this program dealing with driver education in California. It's a state approved course, so it meets the rules, but the difference is that you can do most of the work at home. Once you've studied this, you can get your learner's permit. Now what is the value of being able to do this at home? Well, you can do it in your own time, at your own speed. There's no need for parents to ferry you off to classes at a particular time and that all just makes life so much easier.

The second option for California driver education is to look at that program, the virtual one. This is computer based and allows you to learn safe and effective driving techniques from your own room! You can simply log on when you want to and take parts of the course. Again, the value is that you can do this when you have time to, not working to the rigid timetable of organised classes. It's also true that we all learn more when we are the only student, not being distracted by those around us.

Either or both programs will teach you in the way the law insists you must be, so that you can complete your California driver education and get your learner's permit.

After that, it's driving on the real roads to gain experience, and no one has quite worked out yet a simpler way to do that.

Antonella Barba Nude Pictures!

Yes, we've been able to track down those famous nude pictures of American Idol's Antonella Barba.

Actually, Antonella is not quite nude in the pictures, or at least that set of them that we're going to point you too. They're more cheescake than they are anything as raunchy as Playboy puts out. You'll probably see more flesh at Mardi Gras although, to be fair not flesh quite as good looking as that of Antonella Barba.

 

The link to more from this photo set is here.

Anna Nicole Smith Video

Jeez, some people, there's a video out there of the medics working on Anna Nicole Smith's body:

Grainy video footage of paramedics working on the unresponsive body of Anna Nicole Smith turned up on the Internet and on German television on Friday a day after the sudden death of the former Playboy model in Florida.

The brief video, shot by the Los Angeles-based Splash News and Picture Agency, captures Smith being wheeled on a stretcher on Thursday from the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Paramedics can be seen pumping her body as she is lifted on to an ambulance. One paramedic is seen operating an oxygen pump. She was pronounced dead in the hospital but the cause is yet to be determined.

Splash said it had sold the rights for $500,000 to a buyer it declined to identify. The footage showed up on several Internet sites and on German's RTL TV channel.

Oh well, at least they didn't team up with Paris Hilton to make it a necrophilia movie.

Penelope Cruz and Woody Allen

It looks like Penelope Cruz, Tom Cruise's ex-squeeze, is going to be in the next Woody Allen movie:

Oscar-nominated Spanish actress Penelope Cruz is to star in the new Woody Allen film, to be shot this summer in Barcelona, newspaper El Pais reported on Friday.

Citing Cruz's agent, El Pais said the film was still without a title but that the sought-after actress would speak in Spanish and in English.

Allen has shot two of his last features in London -- "Match Point" and "Scoop" -- and announced some time ago that he would film in Barcelona, without giving further details.

His latest film, "Cassandra's Dream," starring Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell, has yet to be released.

That's one role that can't be blamed on the influence of scientology and probably all the better for it.

Art Buchwald Quotes

Here's some good ones from Art Buchwald, the long running syndicated humorist who died Wednesday, aged 81.

 

* "A bad liver is to a Frenchman what a nervous breakdown is to an American. Everyone has had one and everyone wants to talk about it."

* "If you attack the establishment long enough and hard enough, they will make you a member of it."

 

* "It was a dangerous profession I had chosen ... because no one likes a funny kid. In fact, adults are scared silly of them and tend to warn children who act out that they are going to wind up in prison or worse. It is only when you grow up that they pay you vast sums of money to make them laugh."

* "I just don't want to die the same day Castro dies."
