From COED Magazine. I can usually tell. I have what you call boobdar. But there are some good pointers in this article, along with some helpful visual aids.

COED MagazineBreast Test: How To Tell If She Has Fake Boobs

Motion

Real breasts move. They jiggle and sway and swing. And we love every single second of it. Fake boobs, on the other hand, don’t do a damn thing. Unfortunately, you can’t tell how a set of knockers knock just by looking at (most) pictures. So this doesn’t do you any good there.

But if you can see the lady in question in action, watch for what the breasts do during any quick movements. If she’s kept what her momma gave ‘er, then they should heave, change shape and yes, bounce. If they don’t, they’re fake. But in the end, boobs are boobs and, fake or not, we’re always happy to have a pair around.

No argument from me on this one, though I wouldn't mind seeing the other entries.

Yes, there's a video too. Winners were selected from both male and female contestants.

YesButNoButYes: World's Best Derriere Award...

Melanie Nunes Fronckowiak, 20, Brazil, and Saiba Bombote, 27, France, were awarded the title "Most Beautiful Bottom in the World", a modelling contract for the next international Sloggi campaign, €15,000 prize money, and insurance for their precious derrieres.

Wow, it's like seeing the origin story of Batman, or seeing the first episode of Star Wars.

No, better than that last one.

Hah. Totally called this one. Hawking's coming to Waterloo.

Stephen Hawking coming to Waterloo, Ont.’s Perimeter Institute

Professor Stephen Hawking has been appointed a distinguished research chair at Waterloo, Ont.'s Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics.

"The appointment marks a new phase in our recruitment that will see leading scientists from around the world establish a second research home at Perimeter Institute. I am delighted that Stephen has agreed to accept the first of a projected 40 such visiting chairs," Dr. Neil Turok, the institute's director, said in a statement released Thursday.

Dr. Hawking -- who is the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position once held by Isaac Newton -- will conduct regular stays at the institute beginning in the summer of 2009.

Well, there's a top 10 list in there, but it just keeps going afterward. Big grills, small grills, grills that look like other things, grills made from cars and trucks, cars made from grills, smokers, fireplaces ... so much to look at on this page.

Felicia Day Explains How to Meet Girls In 'World of Warcraft' - Asylum | Men's Lifestyle | Humor, weird news, sex tips, fashion, dating, food and gadgets

So what advice would you give to guy trying to meet a girl in World Of Warcraft?

Well, most of the female avatars in World of Warcraft are actually guys. So if you're a guy looking to meet girls, you need to make sure to put the person you're interested in through that vetting process. And if you're a girl, be prepared to fight guys off with a stick because there's a lot more of them than there are female gamers. You should join a large guild and pair with other people to go on missions. Try and meet people who are on your same level.

Would it matter to you if the guy's a noob?

Yeah, I hate to say that, but if you're a noob you probably won't get a second glance. Just like in real life when a guy drives a Ferrari, it might not be an automatic thumbs up, but it does catch the eye. So if you have the Ferrari of broadswords, yeah.

Some very good ones in this collection. Here's two of my favourites:

US officials flunk test of American history, economics, civics - Yahoo! News

US elected officials scored abysmally on a test measuring their civic knowledge, with an average grade of just 44 percent, the group that organized the exam said Thursday.

Ordinary citizens did not fare much better, scoring just 49 percent correct on the 33 exam questions compiled by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI).

"It is disturbing enough that the general public failed ISI's civic literacy test, but when you consider the even more dismal scores of elected officials, you have to be concerned," said Josiah Bunting, chairman of the National Civic Literacy Board at ISI.

Good god, Harper's gone and appointed a chiropractor (Cambridge MP Gary Goodyear) as the new Minister of Science and Technology. Oh yeah, he's also an acupuncturist.

Luckily, the Liberals have appointed an astronaut as their Science and Technology critic.

Hubble Snaps First Photo Of Planet Circling A Star -- InformationWeek

It took about seven years, but NASA has finally found a planet that circles another star.

The Hubble Space Telescope took the first visible-light snapshot of Fomalhaut b, which orbits a southern star, called Fomalhaut, about 25 light-years away.

NASA said Thursday that the planet is estimated to be less than three times Jupiter's mass, and the star is part of the constellation Piscis Australis, or the "Southern Fish." The finding has been published in the Nov. 14 issue of Science magazine.

Well, at least he finally accomplished something... go big or go home, eh G. W.?

"No other president's disapproval rating has gone higher than 70 percent. Bush has managed to do that three times so far this year," Holland said. "That means that Bush is now more unpopular than Richard Nixon was when he resigned from office during Watergate with a 66 percent disapproval rating."

Before Bush, the record holder for presidential disapproval was Harry Truman, with a 67 percent disapproval rating in January of 1952, his last full year in office.

I like these studies. Reminds me that I should finally get that Fallout 3 disc installed.

Studies claim videogame players enjoy richer, better lives - Gaming

The findings of the studies, one emanating from Canada and one from America, fly in the face of typical stereotypes portraying gamers as overweight teenage couch potatoes leading a largely sedentary lifestyle while wholly devoted to their console of choice.

Some of the statistics unearthed by the Entertainment Software Association of Canada study suggest that one in two Canadians is a gamer and has actively played a software title within the last month, while half of the country’s game-playing demographic is female, over 80 percent indulge in a world of videogames for around 7.1 hours per week, and the average age of a Canadian gamer is actually 40.

“Family gaming is becoming a big part of Canadian families’ pastime. Mom, dad and the kids are all playing together,” enthused Nicole Helsburg, spokeswoman for the Entertainment Software Association of Canada. “Those who grew up playing games have taken that into their adult lives and are now embracing that as a way to spend time with their kids.”

I've always figured Kobe Bryant was a great player holy shit!

Kobe Bryant Scores 25 In Holy Shit We Elected A Black President | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

Lakers shooting guard Kobe Bryant had a typically solid performance from the field last night, scoring 25 points to propel his team to a holy shit, it's hard to believe these words are even gracing this page, but on Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2008, the American people elected a black man to the office of the President of the United States.

Words really can't describe how…or what, or…. Wow.

Bryant, who got off to a slow start early, but managed to find his touch late in the third, incredible. A black president for a nation whose entire history has been haunted by the specter of slavery and plagued by racism since before its inception. That this happened in our lifetime is remarkable; that it happened within 50 years of a time when segregation was still considered an acceptable institution is astonishing. Absolutely astonishing. This is an achievement on par with the moon landing.

In this ABC News story, there were many hidden problems with the McCain camp and their star VP candidate, not the least of which was her spending:

A Republican donor who agreed to foot a majority of the expenses was stunned when he received the bill, Newsweek reported. Both the Times and Newsweek report that the budget for the clothing was expected to be between $20,000 and $25,000. Instead, the amount reported by the Republican National Committee was $150,000.

There is one comment in particular from a McCain aide that guaranteed to heighten friction between the two camps. The angry aide described the Palin family shopping spree to Newsweek as "Wasilla hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus from coast to coast."

And, while I'm not a religious person, Christ, was she ever stupid:

She didn't know Africa was a continent, according to Newsweek. Fox News revealed that during her cramming, she couldn't name the three countries that belong to the North American Free Trade Agreement: the United States, Canada and Mexico.

This is cool. A guy photoshops old pin-up pics, and makes them into something new and much more interesting.
