Aug 5th

During our reportage of the Great British Beer Festival we came across many different characters, but there was one man so superior that we couldn’t stop thinking about him. Who is this grumpy man in a chicken hat? And why is he so unhappy while surrounded by all that beer?

…Who is this grumpy man in a chicken hat? And why is he so unhappy while surrounded by all that beer?

Maybe they ran outta Newcastle? Somebody jacked his nachos? Dissed the hat? We’ll never know.

Either way, we decided to make our own attempts to cheer up Grumpy Chicken Hat Man.
The joy and wonder of a child’s birthday party didn’t do it ……

BP has been unexpectedly hit with a $10bn (£6.2bn) lawsuit related to an alleged leak of toxic chemicals at its Texas City refinery earlier this year, adding to its woes over the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

…The sale lifted BP s share price by 2.55 to 415.65p, as the company made a new
attempt to kill its well permanently. Incoming BP chief executive Robert
Dudley is in Russia today for meetings with senior politicians and
industrialists in his first visit to the country since he fled in 2008. A
BP spokesman said it does not comment on litigation….

HBN: Is ‘My First Kiss’ feat. Ke$ha the Worst Song Ever?

Pop music, by its very definition, is supposed to be disposable. Sometimes, though, a song comes along that attempts to lower that bar further.

…Comments:Add a commentTuesday 03 AugustBy daniNeutral loooove it gladstoneReplyTuesday 03 AugustBy TylerNeutral I don’t really agree with you on this one gladstone. I mean, this really shoud’ve been titled, “Why I hate 3oh!3″ which is a perfectly fine title for an opinion piece, but you never really said why My First Kiss was a bad song. While I personally like it, you could’ve talked about it’s overly simple lyrics and the fact Kesha is in it but you just hated on their video and dance moves. I can answer a couple questions though.Their symbol is 3 fingers, an o, then another 3 fingers. 3OH!3His dance here is really similar to them in concert, I’m pretty sure he just wings it for stage presence.Reply…

Junk food & high-fat diets could be behind allergies

Scientists have found evidence that ‘industrialised’ Western diets high in red meat, sugar and fat lowered the numbers of healthy bacteria in our guts.

…Gut reaction: Scientists say a diet of junk food is behind the explosion of allergies sweeping the nation
The rise of junk food and high-fat diets could be behind the explosion of allergies sweeping Britain, scientists claimed last night. They have found evidence that ‘industrialised’ Western diets high in red meat, sugar and fat lowered the numbers of healthy bacteria in our guts. Without these microbes to prime the immune system, children are more likely to grow up suffering from asthma, eczema and other allergies, they say. The number of people with allergies has trebled in the past 20 years. One in three people now suffer at some point in their lives. Many scientists blame the modern obsession with hygiene and children’s indoor lifestyles. Some doctors say exposure to germs and dirt in the early years is essential for a healthy immune system. Others have linked the rise in allergies to traffic pollution, food additives and the increasingly exotic diets of children. The new study compared gut bacteria of…

Baby Panda Factory:Breeding center mass-producing pandasPICS

Jul 31st

With the help of British wildlife presenter Nigel Marven a Chinese nursery is leading the fight to safeguard the future of the world’s most emblematic animal. The project is considered so sensitive that only a handful of Westerners — all veterinary specialists — have been permitted inside the sound-proofed, softlylit nursery at the giant Panda….

…but the people here revere
their pandas and those who seek to
protect them and Marven was
given a hero’s welcome. Before making his new series, his
closest encounter with a giant panda
had come as a boy when his father
Roger took him to see Chi Chi, then
the star attraction at London Zoo.
The loveable female was loaned to
the zoo and inspired Sir Peter Scott’s
logo for the World Wildlife Fund. Recently, however, Marven went out
with expert trackers in an effort to
hunt them down in the bamboo
thickets.
Because they are so elusive
scurrying off at the mere sound of a
snapped twig it is a task that
requires great patience and stealth,
but after 12 frustrating days they
crept within ten yards of a mother
nursing her cub while leaning against
a tree. He believes this is another first for
no other TV presenter has been filmed
with a wild panda. ‘It was an
incredible moment,’ he says. ‘Afterwards we
celebrated with a special meal and
toasted our success with rice wine.
I don’t drink, but…

Cruise liner ‘kills’ endangered humpback whale

Jul 31st

A rare humpback whale has been found dead after it was hit by a luxury cruise liner near Douglas Island, Alaska.

Report abuse

I think if they can find out if there is a frequency that repels whales so to speak would be awesome.

As to the radar detecting or picking up the whales, I am totally against that because what is stopping the Japanese or those culture such as the natives who hunt whales from buying the technology and using the technology for their benefit.

As to the natives privilege, I think it is hogwash…. We are supposed to be a more modern and civilized species now. There are plenty of other sources of food than whale? Rationalize with those natives, if their people continue to hunt this way there may eventually be no more whales for them to hunt in future generations.

8 Conversation Topics That Will Make You Sound Smarter

You need to grab her attention, and fast! So what do you do? Shotgun a beer? Punch her in the shoulder? Throw up?

…canvas with paint like a monkey would. Seriously. But don’t critique his work, instead say something like I really don’t understand it, but I find it quite fascinating.

7. Kafka Kafka was a government clerk who wrote during his spare time and was completely unknown prior to his death. Only then were his books published and he became recognized as one of the most creative writers in history. Read Metamorphosis, a short story about a guy who turns into a bug. Feel free to say that some thing or event was kafka-esque. That simply means it was as weird as a guy turning into a giant bug. But it sounds cooler.

8. Salvador Dali One of the craziest artists in modern history, you are probably very familiar with his melting-clocks painting called The Persistence of Memory. Dali also did sculptures, photography, movies, and books, all of which seemed to be inspired by psychosis. Ever wondered what it would be like to have Schizophrenia? Drop acid and immerse yourself in Dali’s films and paintings….

The 50-year-old has been dating her toy boy for two years now and the unlikely pair are said to be planning to marry next summer on Linda’s yacht named Alimoney.

…More…

Making a point? Hulk Hogan’s ex-wife Linda sets sail on her luxury yacht called ‘Alimoney’

However, Hulk Hogan seems to think they’re a perfect match and was among the first to offer his congratulations.

Reality TV family: Back in 2005 the entire Hogan
family was still one big happy unit. Hulk, Linda, daughter Brooke and
son Nick attended the Big in ‘05 awards at Sony Studios in Los Angeles

Giving his blessing: Hulk Hogan says he is ‘ecstatic’ over the engagement of his ex-wife to Charlie Hill
Linda and her 56-year-old reality star ex were married for 24 years
before divorcing in 2007, but apparently Hulk, real name Terry Bollea, is over their acrimonious
split. ‘I’m ecstatic for her, I’m very happy for them. I think they’re perfect for each other. I wish them the best,’ he told celebrity website RadarOnline.com.Hulk became engaged to his girlfriend Jennifer McDaniel last year….
