    Putting teeth in the fight against rape. Rape-Axe

    But Ehlers remembers clearly one sentence the young woman uttered: “If only I had teeth down there.”
    That'll take a bite out of crime.

    Huh, it sounds a lot like this. Maybe it's a re-branded version?

    Gayness, Baldness Caused by Chickens

    Male pattern baldness and the mysteries of human sexuality are no puzzles for the president of Bolivia, who has declared they are caused by eating chicken. [...] Speaking at an environmental conference on Tuesday, Morales said chicken producers injected fowl with female hormones and insisted that "when men eat those chickens they experience deviances in being men".

    The Bolivian president since 2005 added that eating chicken could make men go bald.

    Morales's theories do not appear to have been immediately accepted by the scientific community, to put it mildly.

    Penis Enlargement Incompatible with Careers in Police, Military

    Forget about getting a job as a police officer in Indonesia's Papua if you have had your penis enlarged. You won't get it, according to local media reports citing the Papua police chief.

    An applicant "will be asked whether or not his vital organ has been enlarged," said Papua police chief Bekto Suprapto, quoted on local website Kompas.com.

    "If he has, he will be considered unfit to join the police or the military."

    The ban was applied since the unnatural size causes "hindrance during training," said police spokesman Zainuri Lubis in Jakarta, quoted by news portal Detik.com.

    Indonesia's remote easternmost province is home to Papuan tribes, many of whom are known for wearing penis gourds. [...] Papuans use a local technique to achieve the enlargement, according to a sexologist quoted by local newspaper Jakarta Globe, wrapping the penis with leaves from the "gatal-gatal" (itchy) tree so that it swells up "like it has been stung by a bee," the expert said.

    You don't know how big a penis could be made with that technique.... sometimes they exceed 30 cm quickly.... (but must be hospitalized later, because swollen and dripping blood contionously)

    Best Charity EVAR: Stephen Baldwin



    Q- Why does Stephen need personal wealth?
    A- Stephen’s influence is in Hollywood. Hollywood worships money and without it you are seen as a loser and cannot be an effective influence to this group.

    Q- How much money does he need?
    A- From what I read in public court documents Stephen needs several million dollars to pay all of his creditors but he deserves hundreds of millions for his Job like faithfulness in the face of relentless loss and persecution.

    That Dog Is a Gay Homosexual

    An Adelaide restaurant that refused a blind man entry because a waiter thought his guide dog was "gay" has been ordered to apologise and pay compensation. [...] The restaurant's owners said a misunderstanding had arisen between Jolly's female companion and a waiter who understood the woman "to be saying she wanted to bring a gay dog into the restaurant".

    "The staff genuinely believed that Nudge was an ordinary pet dog which had been desexed to become a gay dog," the owners said in a statement to South Australia's Equal Opportunity Tribunal.

    Or as South Park would put it ...

    Rabbi Seduces Wimminz With "Holy, Pure Semen"

    [Nissim] Aharon, a resident of Rishon Lezion, was arrested last August. The indictment issued against him said that for many years he presented himself as a righteous holy man with healing properties in order to prey on women and perform sexual acts on them. In addition, the women gave him large sums of money under false pretenses.

    The indictment also revealed that Aharon, in his 60s, targeted a religious audience or those seeking to become religious. He lied to them, saying he is a holy, pure rabbi whom other rabbis consult. He would say that he is a hidden righteous man, one of the 36 righteous men in Judaism and fixes broken souls and controls angels.

    To this end, he would tell women that his semen is a holy liquid, and whoever comes in physical contact with him will be healed in body and soul. He even went as far as to say that it is a religious commandment to touch the body of "Rabbi Nissim Aharon." He claimed that his holiness is transferred to others via physical contact and that it purifies them.

    Indonesian Police Crack Down on Muscular, Bronzed Surf Whores



    Police on Indonesia's resort island of Bali detained 28 people this week in a crackdown on "beach gigolos," who scout for foreign female tourists, officials said on Tuesday.

    The raids began on Monday after the release of a trailer for a documentary on Bali's 'Kuta cowboys', the muscular and tanned Kuta beach surfers who develop short-term romantic relationships with foreign women in return for gifts.

    'Cowboys in Paradise' follows the trials and tribulations of several beach boys, their families and their female patrons.

    The documentary's Singapore-based director, Amit Virmani, said he found the arrests deplorable.

    "A witch hunt for men with tanned and muscular bodies on the beach is the last thing anybody wants," he said. [...]

    Wijaya said the raids were part of routine checks and not linked to the documentary, but local media reported that security officials were targeting tanned and muscular men.

    -edit-

    Found the trailer to the documentary. Under a tag because of exactly one F-bomb.

    Whoops. It looks like they were a few days behind the Guardian. Still, you can't beat the context though.

    yeah, those stupid actions was done because some stupid legislators want to limit the freedom of exspression... you can always blame the stupid ******* because they think they can control anything with their stupid books and rules....

    you can count on this as actual human rights violation (to have relationship with everyone)....

    EDIT : if you want to read more about that, just translate this news:
    http://www.detiknews.com/read/2010/0...uh-kontroversi

    personally, I think nothing is wrong with them.... the legislators are just jealous because they are mostly fat man with black, hairy, and shapeless body... not to meant disease riddened... and had no hope to some hot blondes without paying much money...

    Best Health Minister EVAR

    Brazil's health minister has a remedy for the nation's high-blood-pressure problem: More sex.

    Minister Jose Temporao says adults should be exercising more to help keep their blood pressure down — and he says a good cardiovascular workout includes sex, "always with protection, obviously."

    Temporao also recommends dancing, a healthy diet and regular blood-pressure checks.

    Fragony bait: Not only do they hate our freedom, they hate our delicious wheat snacks

    Revolution Muslim, the Islamic group that posted a veiled threat against South Park this week, called [Gawker media] "Darwinist ********* who are as despicable as the rest, walking around eating your Triscuits." But, we wondered, why Triscuits?

    Younus Abdullah Mohammed, a member of the group, was behind the original quote. When pressed on his choice of Triscuits as a snack-based insult, he was curt in his response. "It doesn't matter what your favorite crackers or cookies are. They are not more important than the hegemonic wars the West is fighting against Islam." He refused to elaborate further on his disdain for the delicious wheaty squares.

    The Triscuit website yields a few clues. Perhaps the squares, made of "soft white winter wheat," are too decadent. Indeed the ingredient is described as "a kind of cashmere of wheat because of its soft texture and delicate taste."

    Why leave out the best bit?
    The author(s) of the article contacted a marketing rep of Kraft foods, who among other things replied:
    "(Pause.) Everyone loves Triscuits, and we hope that everyone enjoys them."

    I think Lemur should apologize for his earlier statement that stories about German Muslim Christian Democrats don't belong in the NotW thread.

    I will issue a public apology and spend an hour in the stocks. Sorry, I got over-sensitized to inappropriate Euro-Islam stories popping into NotW after a rash of Dutch incidents. My bad, entirely my bad.

    Apology, yes. Stocks? No. Hire an aid, blame them, and send them to the stocks. The stock aid can be your defense.
