For all of you PBHers who are into the sex tourism industry, and by into I mean the nipples in the above picture are recognizable… don’t be deterred by high airfare to Thailand and other southeastern asian economies. For sex tourists looking for the next bargain destination (and who isn’t these days?), Kenya provides!
Tennis star Maria Sharapova has resolved to run more miles than “King” LeBron James in January as part of an ill-conceived Nike+Apple+ publicity stunt. Sharapova explained that if she lost to “the King”, she would let LeBron and his entourage/posse teach her how to play doubles. If LeBron somehow lost, she also planned to teach him how to play doubles.

The Report of the Iraq Study Group chaired by James Baker and Lee Hamilton has recommended, as part of a broad strategy for an American diplomatic offensive “to build an international consensus for stability in Iraq and the region,” “a renewed and sustained commitment by the United States to a comprehensive Arab-Israeli Peace on all fronts: Lebanon, Syria, and President Bush’s June 2002 commitment to a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine.” The panel members, some of whom will have just returned from the region, will discuss prospects for implementing the Study Group’s recommendations for renewed negotiations to resolve Israel’s conflicts with Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.

Call it a barrier, call it apartheid, call it what you will, but these are some amazing drawings by art anarchist Banksy on the Israeli separation/segregation wall in Palestine (click on the thumbnails for bigger pictures):
Redditism: I posted this Washington Post article three hours ago along the same lines of the actual story title, and entitled it “Washington Post: Now Congressmen Have To Work More Than 2 Days a Week… and they don’t like it.”
Someone else posts it two hours later, and titles it “Republican congressmen complain about having to work five days a week“.
Guess who’s doing better? The one that mentions the Republicans in a negative light.
