Porn star politician auctions breast implants
By Dan Whitcomb

Porn star Mary Carey, who shot to fame by running for California governor against Arnold Schwarzenegger, unveiled plans on Tuesday to auction off her autographed, recently removed breast implants for charity. Carey said the size 36-D implants were taken out two weeks ago and replaced with larger 36-DDDs and while under anesthesia she realized they could be used to raise money for breast cancer research.

"The doctors asked me what I wanted to do with them and I said, 'You know what, I'm going to keep them and try to sell them. Because my grandmother had breast cancer," Carey told Reuters in an interview. [See full story.]

Today, Friday, June 29: Michelle Marsh is Topless

According to Wikipedia (source of all 21st century knowledge), Michelle Marsh (b. 30 September 1982) is an English "glamour model" and her claim to fame is her "large, natural breasts."

Her measurements are:
Bust: 32FF
Waist: 26"
Hips: 32"

Sounds good, right?

Or maybe not...





Compare and contrast with the lovingly Photoshop-ed pics at her official web site, which is a) softcore porn and b) run by her father.

Um. Eeeeeu.

Today, Wednesday, June 27: Spice Girls expected to announce reunion

LONDON (Reuters) - The Spice Girls are expected to announce a reunion tour on Thursday, ending months of speculation about the five-member band that brought "girl power" to the British music scene.

The band sold around 55 million albums and topped charts around the world before Posh, Scary, Sporty, Baby and Ginger decided to go it alone -- with varying degrees of success.

Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell left the group in 1998 and the other four have pursued solo careers and jobs outside music since their last album "Forever" in November, 2000.

"The Spice Girls are set to make an official announcement to the world regarding future plans on Thursday 28th June," their management said in a statement last week.

"No further information can be given at this time but given the band's unique history, you can be sure to expect the unexpected," Simon Fuller's 19 Entertainment said.

In a recent radio interview, Melanie Chisholm, known as "Sporty Spice," said she admired boy band Take That, who have enjoyed huge success since reforming, even without the help of former member Robbie Williams.

British media report that the Spice Girls stand to make millions of pounds each from the reunion tour, which is expected to be accompanied by a new album and a television documentary.

Today, Thursday, June 14: As if the Filet-O-Fish® wasn't enough, Mickey D's introduces... the salmon wrap

Norwegian McDonald's to serve salmon wrap

OSLO (Reuters) - McDonald's restaurants in Norway will launch a new fresh salmon wrap in August to satisfy increasing demand from consumers for healthy food, company officials said on Thursday.

The Nordic nation is the world's biggest salmon exporter.

"It's local, it's Norwegian, and something we are proud to be launching, and it fits into the trend that people want to eat more healthily," said Margaret Brusletto, spokeswoman for McDonald's Norwegian subsidiary.

A wrap is a sandwich-like meal made of a filling wrapped inside a soft tortilla shell. McDonald's restaurants in the United States and the UK already serve chicken wraps.

Plans call only for the product to be sold at the 67 McDonald's restaurants in Norway, but the American fast-food chain's partner, the world's biggest salmon farmer Marine Harvest, hopes it will also catch on internationally.

Today, Thursday, June 7: Animals 1, Humans 0

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A lion and a tiger kept as exotic pets on the roof of a Mexican meat processing plant killed a man feeding them Monday, Mexican media said.

Caretaker Angel Aguilar, 56, was taking pieces of chicken to feed the two big cats when the lion swiped at him through the bars of its cage and pulled him inside, Reforma daily said. The tiger then joined in the attack.

Paramedics arrived at the plant in the rough Mexico City neighborhood of Iztapalapa while the man was still alive but they could not get past the animals to treat him.

The two big cats, which had separate quarters of a big cage but came together to eat, were according to reports kept by the plant's owner as pets and in good condition.

After the attack, which left scraps of bloodstained clothing on the floor of the cage, the animals were sedated and the tiger's jaws tied around a chunk of wood.

The tiger later died, apparently of suffocation, after being transported by animal protection authorities to a nearby zoo in a small container. The lion survived the journey.

Man shot dead for bad singing in Philippine karaoke bar

A jobless man was shot dead by a security guard for singing out of tune in a Philippine karaoke bar, police said Thursday.

Romy Baligula, 29, was halfway through his song on Tuesday night in a bar in San Mateo town, east of Manila, when 43-year-old security guard Robilito Ortega yelled that he was out of tune.

As Baligula ignored his comments and continued singing, Ortega pulled out his revolver and shot him in the chest.

Senior Superintendent Felipe Rojas said Baligula died instantly.

The security guard was detained by an off-duty policeman shortly after the shooting.

Deaths and violence are not uncommon in Philippine karaoke bars.

The popular Frank Sinatra song "My Way" has been taken off many karaoke bars in Manila after it was found to be the cause of fights and even deaths when patrons sang out of tune.

Best Def Leppard-related quote ever.

From My Name is Earl, delivered by Jason Lee, as Earl:

Nope, I don't have a gamblin' problem. I'm winning. And winnin' is not a problem.

That's like saying Michael Jordan has a basketball problem. Or Def Leppard has an awesomeness problem.

So why don't y'all just pour some sugar on that.
