PHOTO: 52,00 nude people bare it all for art, at the Sydney Opera House

How do you get 5,200 people to show up on the steps of the Sydney Opera House wearing nothing but a birthday suit and a smile? If you're U.S. artist Spencer Tunick, you simply ask for volunteers. He's known world-wide for his installations using nude people. This one pictured March 1, 2010 is titled "Mardi Gras, the Base." It was commissioned by the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras and aimed to "emphasize and celebrate the sameness of individuals - regardless of their sexual preferences".

VIDEO: New tape of trainer and orca before attack, is SeaWorld to blame

"Sold with restrictions, for breeding purposes only." That is the legal agreement between a now defunct zoo in Vancouver B.C. and SeaWorld, when they purchased Tillicum the orca or "killer whale." The agreement was a safety precaution caused by a tragic incident in the now closed Vancouver zoo, where Tillikum and two female orcas killed a trainer, before his move to SeaWorld, where a man who climbed into his tank was killed, and now the latest tragedy Wednesday with a professional trainer.

Orcas like Tillikum are worth two million dollars, due to the U.S. ban on capturing them, hence the price. They're pod animals, accustomed to living in groups, and swimming great distances. Watch the video and see the isolated tanks where he and other orcas spend their lives when they're not performing, it's the equivalent of a human staying in a small closet. Our mental balance might veer off under those circumstances.

Olympic sized joint starts on fire in Vancover!

As you can see from this video, when you roll an over sized doobie and light it up, DO NOT RUN WITH IT.

The wind adds oxygen causing the joint to burst into flame making the puffing hot and harsh. Having lived in the Florida Keys for a few years we found that a bit of salt in the mix retards flames enough to roll monsters as you see here. Hopefully this guy will slow down and get it smoldering for Arnold who we are sure knows these things, who can then get it up to Vancouver for the Snow Boarding team.

Stephen Colbert Iranians have Uranian!

What I like most about this is even with high end spell checkers you are never safe from my speeling or granmer. But I can't recall ever making as big as a boo-boo here as the Wall Street Journal made with this one. I am redeemed!

video President Obama pardons Courage the turkey, Grand Marshal of the Disneyland Parade

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 02:17:58 -0700

"There are certain days that remind me why I ran for this office, then there are days like this when I pardon a turkey and send it to Disneyland" Said President Obama, flanked by Sasha and Malia who encouraged him to follow through with the now traditional pardon.

This is actually a heart warming speech. It's not certain whether Sasha and Malia are somber because of the cold,or because they're thinking of the fate of so many of this turkey's bretheren. Just in case, it might be wise to serve ham at the White House tomorrow. As a side note, Bush the Second outdid all of the presidents who have performed this ceremony by pardoning Scooter Libby.

video: New, Heather Ellis trial. NAACP and others protest as jury selection starts.

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 20:49:32 -0700

A fair discussion of the preacher's daughter vs the police at Walmart debacle is discussed on Anderson Cooper. Guests view the trial of Heather Ellis, and weigh in from both sides. Protesting groups worry that jury selection will not be so fair, fearing an all-white jury will be selected.

A fair discussion on Anderson Cooper with guests who view the three year nightmare from both sides. Heather Ellis rejected a plea agreement three years ago in favor of this jury trial for assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest and disturbing the peace.The case has caused ugly racial lines to surface, which have every indication of lasting long after the trial is settled, despite her guilt or innocence.

Onion video, humor: Happy Healthy Obamas must change to relate to miserable, trashy, obese Americans

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:19:00 -0700

I am not saying that they need to change in an attempt to relate to Michele Bachmann's gang of 4,000...but if they could make these simple changes, and contract a skin disease which makes them look pasty faced and white, it couldn't hurt! With the news that Michelle Obama will be taking childhood obesity on as a special concern and project, this is more important than ever!

Poll: Happy, Healthy Obamas Out Of Touch With Miserable Americans

You cannot miss the smiling, fit, good looks of the First Family. They're obviously bright, loving, close-knit, and happy - showing tremendous grace under pressure. Add to this, they're fit..who can relate to them?

Perhaps the limit is the revelation regarding the Biden romance, straight from the pouty lips of Jill Biden. Now we have to hear that even Biden has a better sex life?!!

The Onion offers some changes the First Family could make in order to fit in better with some Americans who may be feeling somewhat disenfranchised.

video: Burn Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid in Hell.. anti choice madman Randall Terry tells followers

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 00:06:21 -0700

This appears to be a video straight out of the bad Halloween movie archives, but sadly it's real life right here in the good ol'U S of A. If asked, the perpetrators would tell you that their actions stem from their reverence for life -unborn life, if that were so, it would appear that they don't seem to have any reverence or compassion left over for the living.

Right now there are wacky right wing followers of Terry who saw the same video you're witnessing and think this will be the best Halloween ever! They're scurrying around preparing their own effigies of Pelosi and Reid, all the better to gather the children, and light Pelosi and Reid on fire this Halloween, figuratively sending them straight to hell, and hey..maybe win the prize! The lunatic you see in the video knows what Jesus wants, and it's apparently none of that love and compassion blather. Terry knows these two will burn in hell, and he wants to hurry the process along.

Terry promises that if they don't get their way, in other words, to control women's bodies once again, they'll commit (yet more) acts of terrorism. How many more doctors will be shot, clinics bombed, and because of the encouragement of a lunatic who knows his words will reach someone unhinged enough to follow through to the ultimate conclusion, while others gleefully dance around the bonfire?

Video: Best, Ryan Howard Philadelphia Phillies, Geraldo Rivera v Lou Dobbs, Ann Coulter v facts

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:15:27 -0700

Ryan Howard of the Philadelphia Phillies. Keith Olbermann reviews his stats revealing the World Series on Wednesday doesn't look good against left handed pitchers.

Geraldo Rivera: Best Call out. Geraldo nails the defamitory tone and scapegoating of latinos on the door of Lou Dobbs.

Coulter Assinine Assassin ramblings. In an excellent example of how the Coultergeist has 'fact checked' her books and opinions, she carries on with great authority, and misses the mark on Lee Harvey Oswald.

More Reason to not get that Swine Flu shot!

It seems to be beyond politics, Rush Limbaugh and Bill Maher agree, don't get that flu shot! Here is another reason! Hmmm... I wonder if insurance would pay to have this woman's head turned around?

Don't you ever wonder what really goes on in the mind of your pilot, doctor, dentist,proctologist? It's probably not a good time to start.

Olbermann: Very funny. Urban Dictionary now includes phrase Pullin a Palin. Possible sexually suggestive GOP entries video

nospam@example.com (Newscat) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 01:31:00 -0700

Sarah Palin will live on in the pages of the Urban Dictionary. Her recent abandonment of her governership of Alaska long before her term was up, she's inspired the phrase "Pullin' a Palin" in common use, and now in the dictionary. The definition follows: 1. Quitting when going gets tough 2. Abandoning the responsiblity entrusted by your neighbors, for book advances by publishers, and to make money on lecture circuit. 3.Bizarre move that will damn ambitions for higher office.

Now that we've lauded Sarah Palin's official contribution to the Urban Dictionary, be sure to watch as Keith runs down the list of who and what has inspired such dictionary-worthy phrases as: Serious Sin (hint: diapers), Wide Stance, Falling Short of God's Standard, Writing an Ensign, Hiking Up The Old Appalachian Trail, and of course...Sparking. While they seem fairly innocuous alone, when paired with the deed and the name, I promise you'll be glad you did took the time to watch!
