My Ninja, Please! 8/30/06: That’s not a bomb, OMG, that’s a…

A penis pump!AA

penile.jpg

That’s exactly what customs officials said to this dude when he tried to front and say his penis pump was a bomb.AA No he wasn’t a terrorist or evenAAmentally ill (well…).AA Apparently the reason he was lying was because he was on his way to Turkey with his ma’dukes and he didn’t want her to know he was carrying a penile aid.AA

I mean, I feel him on one level… you don’t want to get embarressed in front of your mom, no matter how small your wiwi.AA But on the other hand, you can’t just go saying somethings a bomb in an airport!AA At any rate, now he’s got a felony case.

Kenyan Hoes May Hold Key to AIDS Vaccine

A new study by researchers from the University of Manitoba suggests that some sex workers in Kenya may have a gene that protects them from contracting the deadly HIV/AIDS virus.AA Researches studied 850 sex workers over the course of three years, some of whom had sex with as many as 30 men a day!AA By the end of the three years, most of the prositutes had contracted the virus, but 130 or so did not, despite having had unprotected sex with about 500 men each.AA The scientists believe that these women might be protected from contracting HIV by a gene known as human leukocyte that enables the immune system to recognize HIV and other similar viruses.
I can already hear ODB in heaven reacting to the news:

"Ooooh baby I like it raw, yeah baby I like it raw…."

Having trouble quitting? Nicotine levels are on the rise…

Further proof that Joe Camel and the Marlboro Man don’t deserve ninja status:

A new report by the Massachusetts Department of Health details how the level of nicotine found in US cigarettes has risen about 10 percent in the past six years, making it hard to quit and easier to get hooked.AA The study shows a steady climb in the amount of nicotine delivered to the lungs of smokers regardless of brand, with overall nicotine yields increasing by about 10 percent. Massachusetts is one of three U.S. states to require tobacco companies to submit information about nicotine and the only state with data going back to 1998.

An excerpt: "The study found the three most popular cigarette brands with young smokers - Marlboro, Newport and Camel - delivered significantly more nicotine than they did years ago. Nicotine in Kool, a popular menthol brand, rose 20 percent. More than two-thirds of black smokers use menthol brands."

Getting Branded

"The manner in which we spend our money defines who we are. This theory isn’t exactly new. Thorstein Veblen conjured the phrase "conspicuous consumption" back in 1899 in his book the Theory of the Leisure Class. In this secular society of ours, where family and church once gave us a sense of belonging, identity and meaning, there is now Apple, Mercedes and Coke."

Neil Boorman decides to start a brand-free life.

green-electronics-guide.jpg

The biggest names in electronics have just sat their first global exam on their green credentials. Ranked on their use of toxic chemicals and electronic waste (e-waste) policies only Dell and Nokia scraped a barely respectable score while Apple, Motorola and Lenovo flunked the test to finish bottom of the class.
