Our long national nightmare is over: At last, scientists can make rabbit penis spare parts.
In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers led by Anthony Atala published the results of their successful attempt to engineer new corpora cavernosas, the column of tissue that engorges with blood during male arousal, for male rabbits. Other procedures can partially restore function to a damaged phallus, and Atala’s team has previously shown they could replace a small portion of the tissue (they had up to a 50 percent success rate in rabbits).This, however, was the first time they totally replaced corpora cavernosas.

Source By Ariel David, AP Writer ROME — It's a new Da Vinci code, but this time it could be for real. An Italian musician and computer technician claims to have uncovered musical notes encoded in Leonardo Da Vinci's "Last Supper," raising the possibility that the Renaissance genius might have left behind a somber composition to accompany the scene depicted in the 15th-century wall painting. "It sounds like a requiem," Giovanni Maria Pala said.Painting of the Day: Composition VII (1913)

First of all, no that is not Britney on the cover - It does say in small print "Truthlessness alert: This cover image is a composite photos. Britney did not pose for that photo. That, sadly, is not her body."
The Scoop on Fair Trade
"Before you've finished your breakfast this morning, you'll have relied on half the world"
- Martin Luther King
An interesting thought. And a depressing one, when you realise that those people you've relied on for your coffee and muesli are almost certainly being exploited and oppressed by the unfair power balance in world trade.

Fair Trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equity in international trade.

Every year, millions of volunteers participate in clinical trials in return for quick cash. A few turn pro. Welcome to the guinea pig underground.
Girls relaxing on the steps with coolness.
So I came across the photo below and really couldn't stop going back to take a second look (or third):
This photo drew me more than the other three images it came with. I just like the contrast of their voluminous pants with their tank tops; it's very earthy especially with their color selections. The differences in the way the two girls are sitting and positioning their legs make the photo perfect as well.
