When Movies Become Real Life...
Back in 2007 a movie named Teeth hit the market. It was about a girl that had a bit of an anomaly about her... she had a vagina that had teeth. Real fucking teeth. It was like a defense mechanism. Against my better judgement, I watched the film... and after I witnessed a few dicks catching the old guillotine treatment, I regretted it dearly.
As I have been avidly watching this years World Cup taking place in South Africa, I have heard some horror stories about the 16% of the population n South Africa that have HIV and the epidemic like amount of rapes that occur day after day. This is sad stuff... but one woman said enough is enough. This south African woman, Dr. Sonnet Ehlers, has invented a new anti-rape condom that replicates the effects of the girls vagina in Teeth... behold the Rape-Axe Condom!!!
You can't make shit like this up. The woman wears the protective condom like a tampon, and if she should happen to be raped, the condom attached barbs to the offenders junk. The barbs can not be removed by anybody but a doctor, making identification of the rapist likely to happen at the hospital. It doesn't actually prevent the rape, but it sure does make it easier to catch the animals responsible.
Now, In my research I found that they have been developing this condom since 2005, and have distributed 30,000 of them free of charge in South Africa during the World Cup in an effort to curb the amounts of rape during the overcrowded tournament. So while the movie did not actually inspire the condom, I am glad that it is accomplishing the same goals... no means no, and if you rape someone I hope you are prepared to lose Mr. Winky forever...

Tell Me You Don't Like Soccer After These Pics...
My childhood friend and gorgeous model Rosina Grosso is doing her part to woo fickle American fans over and get them to warm up to soccer. So she decided to put together a calendar/scorecard bracket for you guys at home to keep track of all the action... that is if you can concentrate with those beautiful pictures staring back in your face. She made two different brackets, one for the first group round and one for the secondary individual round. You can check out her website here, and make sure you tune in everyday and support your favorite country in the 2010 World Cup. This is the world's sport people... and she is phenomenally easy to look at. Download the brackets and keep score in style. Enjoy.... Forza Italia!!!

Commercially Acclaimed: Vol.#5 - World Cup Edition
TV commercials are a part of our everyday lives as TV viewers. Even though Tivo and DVR have allowed us to "skip through" the commercials, the advertising companies a still trying to peak our interests by coming up with creative commercials. To me, great commercials are an art form and are under appreciated by a society that is always trying to speed through things. Think about it... how many times did you see a great commercial that made you laugh hysterically or want to go out and purchase the advertised product??? And how many times has the best part of the Super Bowl been the commercials during a blow out game??? Whether you want to admit it or not, commercials are cool as shit... and here are some of my favorites. The 2010 World Cup is under way, so what better thing to hghlight then the wonderful ads that are being shown during the games... this is a world sport, and these commercials represent some of the many cultures in the world cup. So enjoy... the commercials breaks may suck, but they can be entertaining.
