Good God! Its a dinosaur
At the Creation Museum in Kentucky, dinosaurs sail on the Ark!
Here exhibits show the Grand Canyon took just days to form during Noah's flood, dinosaurs coexisted with humans and had a place on Noah's Ark, and Cain married his sister to people the earth, among other Biblical wonders. Opponents argue that children who see the exhibits will be confused when they learn in school that the universe is 14 billion years old rather than 6,000. more

Westerkerk carillon - lunchtime playlist
I work in Amsterdam, there is a big church nearby called the Westerkerk (it's near the Anne Frank house), it's recently been brought back to its former glory with a clean up and I've also noticed them playing funky melodies on the carillon. Last week was "I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts" and today I got the full title music for "The good, the bad and ugly".
Those crazy Dutch!

Ando Momofuku - noodle master
Ando Momofuku, inventor and father of the instant ramen noodle passed away on January 5th at the age of 96.
I suspect he will be going to the great soup bowl in the sky.
In 1948, he founded the precursor to Nissin and in 1958 unveiled Chicken Ramen, the world's first instant noodle product.
The experience convinced him that "peace will come to the world when the people have enough to eat," according to Nissin.
I wander if he was a 'Pastafarian'?!

La Tomatina 2005 (update)
So me n mrs mule set off from NL on Friday night, drove through Belgium and France down to Bordeaux. When we arrived at 4am it was raining really hard....most upsetting... but the following day we met up with some friends, Barbara, Russell, Scarlet et al. It was glorious and sunny, we went for a 'beet spoat ride' (speedboat ride) in Glyns nice power boat across the lake, and enjoyed some drinks at the bar. In the evening we watched the sun going down over the Atlantic Ocean... very niiiice.
The following day we set off for Spain driving through the Pyrenees and down through Zaragoza to Buñol.
Bunol was already heaving with tourists for 'La Tomatina' which is part of a week long celebration. The actual day of the Tomatina begins with the locals climbing a greasy pole to pull off a Ham tied to the top.. This takes about an hour with hilarious attempts of wobbly human towers. Once the ham is down the tension really started to build up, people started ripping each others t-shirts off and throwing them around, water cannons were deployed to cool off the masses.
At about 11am a big 'boom' signals the arrival of the trucks, filled with tomatoes.. They slowly drive down the narrow street emptying their tomatoes on the way down... It turns into a frenzy, we were scrambling on the floor to pick up tomatoes and throw them at everyone or anyone in sight.... Pure mayhem!!!! After 40 minutes we were totally covered, drenched, stinking of tomato flesh (it was hard not to gag) tomato penetrates every bit of your clothing/hair/skin. We started to wander back the bus to clean ourselves up... Getting showered by the locals on the way. I took some photies with a waterproof camera... So you'll have to wait until I get the film developed... I can't wait!
We are still in Spain.. and debating catching a flight home because we are really, really tired. I think I may pop back in a few weeks and drive the bus home from San Pedro with mrs mules dad... huzzah!

La Tomatina 2005
The most well known festival this month is La Tomatina in Buñol near Valencia which is the world's biggest tomato fight. This takes place on the last Wednesday (31st). It lasts only two hours but the hearty partying begins at the beginning of the week.
Rules for those taking part include no bottles, no tearing of clothing and the tomatoes must be crushed before they're thrown.
Veterans of the battle advise that accommodation is scarce and it's best to stay in Valencia (40 kilometres from Bunyol) or elsewhere nearby and take public transport to the festivities.
Me n Mrs Mule will be driving down there in the Bus and stopping off in Bordeaux to see some friends on the way. We hope simply to drive n park there the night before.
The attire is simple: COME DRESSED TO WEAR TOMATO JUICE!!
(its interseting to note that the Dutch solcialist party logo is a Tomato being thrown... "For centuries the tomato has also been a symbol of protest: it was thrown at bad actors. The Socialist Party aims its tomatoes at political actors."
LOL... sweeet!

11 pints to awake
The Scotsman reports that "New research shows motorway service station coffee is so weak that a drowsy driver would have to drink 11 pints to ward off fatigue."
"Of 25 service stations tested, not one served coffee strong enough to keep a driver awake for the recommended two hours, the motoring magazine Auto Express found..... Furthermore, price is not a reliable guide to caffeine levels, although the two cheapest cups, from McDonald?s and Burger King outlets, were in the bottom three for strength."
So, now that UK motorists are aware of this they will all be diving for the one drink that does laabel its caffine content with:
Ingredients: carbonated water, sucrose, glucose, sodium citrate, taurine, glucuronolactone, caffeine, inositol, niacin, D-pantothenol, pyridoxine HCL, vitamin B12, artificial flavours, colors

Morning Wood T-shirt
**update**
This from Anonova
and BBC News
A BBC children's presenter has been reprimanded for wearing a T-shirt that contained a risque slogan.
Dominic Wood was rapped for wearing a "Morning Wood" T-shirt on his Dick and Dom in da Bungalow show.
The 26-year-old wore the T-shirt earlier this year on the two-hour Saturday programme aimed at eight to 12-year-olds.
The phrase is common slang for waking in the morning in an aroused state, says The Sun.
As a result of the incident, all presenters of live BBC kids' shows will have their clothing vetted.
A viewer complained to Ofcom that the message was "an offensive sexual slogan, completely inappropriate for a children's programme".
In its defence, the BBC said: "The innuendo was aimed at people outside the show's core audience. Children of that age could not be expected to recognise the joke.
"But the executive in charge was extremely concerned and has made her displeasure clear in the strongest terms."
Ofcom said the matter was now resolved and added: "The logo was inappropriate but for its core audience the double entendre was likely to be lost."

FW: The Best Chain Letter Ever
My name is mrmule and I approve this message........
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hello, my name is Lewis and I suffer from the guilt of not forwarding 50
billion f*cking chain letters sent to me by people who actually believe
that if you send them on, a poor 6-year-old girl in Arkansas with a breast
on her forehead will be able to raise enough money to have it removed
before her redneck parents sell her to a traveling freak show.
Do you honestly believe that Bill Gates is going to give you, and everyone
to whom you send "his" email, $1000?
How stupid are we?
"Ooooh, looky here! If I scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get
laid by a model I just happen to run into the next day!"
What a bunch of bullshit.
Maybe the evil chain letter leprechauns will come into my house and sodomize
me in my sleep for not continuing a chain letter that was started by Peter
in 5 AD and brought to this country by midget pilgrims on the Mayflower.
f*ck 'em.
If you're going to forward something, at least send me something mildly
amusing. I've seen all the "send this to 10 of your closest friends, and
this poor, wretched excuse for a human being will somehow receive a nickel
from some omniscient being" forwards about 90 times.
I don't f*cking care.
Show a little intelligence and think about what you're actually contributing
to by sending out these forwards. Chances are, it's your own unpopularity.
The point being? If you get some chain letter that's threatening to leave
you shagless or luckless for the rest of your life, delete it. If it's
funny, send it on.
Don't piss people off by making them feel guilty about a leper in Botswana
with no teeth who has been tied to the ass of a dead elephant for 27 years
and whose only salvation is the 5 cents per letter he'll receive if you
forward this email.
Now forward this to everyone you know.
Otherwise, tomorrow morning your underwear will turn carnivorous and will
consume your genitals.
Have a nice day.
P.S. Send me 15 bucks

Stealth Lynndie-ing
From BoingBoing
Stealth disco is when you take video tape yourself or someone rocking and grooving near someone who can't see you doing it.
In this warped variant of stealth disco, you strike the cigarette-dangling-from-mouth, finger-points-at-exposed-prisoner-genitalia pose made famous by Pfc. Lynndie England in Abu Ghraib torture photos. As a website devoted to Stealth Lynndie-ing explains, "The image has shocked, sickened and outraged people. But more importantly, it has captured the imagination of young men and women up and down the country who don't give much of a sh*t about anything."

F*cking villagers
Residents of an Austrian village called F*cking, have voted against changing the name.
The 150 or so people who live in the village debated the issue after roadsigns kept being stolen - many by British tourists.
Spokesman Siegfried Hoeppl, said: "Everyone here knows what it means in English, but for us F*cking is F*cking - and it's going to stay F*cking - even though the signs keep getting stolen."
He said the name came from Mr F*ck and his family who settled in the area 100 years ago, and added "ing", meaning village or settlement.
The villagers didn't find out about the English meaning of the word until Allied soldiers stationed in the region in 1945 pointed out the alternative meaning.
Local newspaper editor Menhardt Buzasa said there had been an increase in the number of signs being stolen, and said British tourists were usually blamed.
"I do not agree it is just the British. F*cking is universal. Germans use it as much now as the British, and it also means the same to the Americans, Australians and anyone in the English speaking world," he said.
Similar votes on a name change have taken place recently in neighbouring Austrian towns Wank am see and Petting, as well as in Vomitville and Windpassing.

Dog meat used in hot dogs
Two directors of a Belgian meat wholesaler have been arrested after dog meat was found in hot dogs around Europe.
More than 20,000 kilos of hot dogs were seized by food inspectors during a routine visit to the company's headquarters in Brussels.
Health and safety officials have notified neighbouring countries that sausages sold by the firm involved are not fit for human consumption.
Several thousand of the dog food contaminated hot dogs have turned up in Holland, according to the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority.
Checks are being carried out to see in what other countries the hot dogs may have been sold.
The Federal Food Agency in Belgium has confirmed the meat used in the hot dogs was intended for use in the dog food industry.

Virgin Atlantic Airways on Friday scrapped plans to install bright-red urinals shaped like women's open lips at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, saying it had received complaints they were offensive.
"I don't know many men who think it's cool to pee in a woman's mouth, even a porcelain one," said NOW President Kim Gandy on the group's Web site.
The urinal, designed by a Dutch company, was the idea of a female designer. Riordan said Virgin was surprised by the negative reaction to the plan, part of designs for the lounge, built to pamper first-class customers.

UNICEF Vaccine Contaminated with Sterilizing Agents
A UNICEF campaign to vaccinate Nigeria's youth against polio may have been a front for sterilizing the nation. Dr. Kaita, upon analysis, found evidence of serious contamination. "Some of the things we discovered in the vaccines are harmful, toxic; some have direct effects on the human reproductive system," he said.
This is not the first time UNICEF has been embroiled in a controversy over sterilizing agents in vaccines. LifeSiteNews.com reported that in 1995, the Catholic Women's League of the Philippines won a court order halting a UNICEF anti-tetanus program because the vaccine had been laced with B-hCG, which when given in a vaccine permanently causes women to be unable to sustain a pregnancy. The Supreme Court of the Philippines found the surreptitious sterilization program had already vaccinated three million women, aged 12 to 45. B-hCG-laced vaccine was also found in at least four other developing countries.

Subliminal TV messages
Japanese broadcaster Nippon Television Network Corp. (NTV) has been accused of inserting a subliminal image in one of its late-night television programs on a regular basis.
Link
The program, "Manee no Tora" (Money Tiger), featured a split-second image of Yukichi Fukuzawa from Japan's 10,000-yen note as the program switched from its opening theme to the beginning of the program. NTV officials said the image lasted 0.2 seconds, covering six frames out of 30, a length difficult for most viewers to see.
Also, in an NTV-affiliated broadcast in December 1989, a subliminal image of AUM Shinrikyo cult guru Shoko Asahara was inserted into a cartoon that had nothing to do with him. Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) also inserted a face shot of Asahara into a broadcast special in May 1995, inciting criticism from society.

spyware free RealPlayer through the BBC
BBC made a deal with Real to distribute a spyware-free version of the player via their site. According to the BB post:
The BBC made a unique deal with Real Networks which disposes of their spyware tactics. Basically, if a user clicks on a link to download Real Player from a BBC website, the referrer script sends them to a page where they can download an expiry-free, spyware-free and nuisance-free version of the player. It's because the BBC have such a stringent public service remit, that it was offensive to charge people a license fee for BBC content, then make them pay all over again for the facility to view/listen to it.

Pacmen on mars
OK well not quite pac men... maybe they are fortune cookies from space... mmmmm.
There's a message in the shapes, the scientists say, though presumably it was not extracted after a meal. Wind blows through this north polar region of Mars from the lower right toward the upper left, crafting dusty dunes with steep slopes that point in the direction the wind blows.

Dante's Inferno Test - Be Judged
OK.. being in the testing industry, I like to take these things. This one isn't as long as a previously posted test, and its basically a moral Yes & No/True or False.
Any who, I have been judged, and frankly..I think it would be difficult to stay out of hell these days. but here's my results:
The wretched King Minos has decided your fate. His tale wraps around his body 2 times.
The sweet light no longer strikes against your eyes. Your shade has been banished to... the Second Level of Hell!
Second Level of Hell Lustful
You have come to a place mute of all light, where the wind bellows as the sea does in a tempest. This is the realm where the lustful spend eternity. Here, sinners are blown around endlessly by the unforgiving winds of unquenchable desire as punishment for their transgressions. The infernal hurricane that never rests hurtles the spirits onward in its rapine, whirling them round, and smiting, it molests them. You have betrayed reason at the behest of your appetite for pleasure, and so here you are doomed to remain. Cleopatra and Helen of Troy are two that share in your fate.
The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Second Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
| Level | Score |
|---|---|
| Purgatory (Repenting Believers) | Very Low |
| Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers) | High |
| Level 2 (Lustful) | Very High |
| Level 3 (Gluttonous) | Very Low |
| Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious) | Low |
| Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy) | Low |
| Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics) | High |
| Level 7 (Violent) | Moderate |
| Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers) | High |
| Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous) | Moderate |

How to find inner peace
I am passing this on to you because it has definitely worked for me. By following the simple advice I read in an article, I have finally found inner peace. It reads: "The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you've started.". I looked around to see all the things I started and hadn't finished. So, today I have finished one bottle of white wine, a bottle of red wine, a bottle of Baileys, my Prozac, a large box of chocolates and a quart of beer. You have no idea how good I feel. You may pass this on to those you feel are in need of Inner Peace.

Acts of terror may be perpetrated upon the people of these United States and/or the world only in strict accordance with guidelines proscribed in the Bush/PNAC Doctrine.
Gay Christians?!?
An almost perfect reply to the furor over the installation of an openly gay bishop in the Episcopal church...
From a recent letter to the editor in Tennessee:
The actions taken by the New Hampshire Episcopalians are an affront to Christians everywhere. I am just thankful that the church's founder, Henry VIII, and his wife Catherine of Aragon, and his wife Anne Boleyn, and his wife Jane Seymour, and his wife Anne of Cleves, and his wife Katherine Howard, and his wife Catherine Parr are no longer here to suffer through this assault on traditional Christian marriage.

Silver money gaining popularity
If you want to put the government back under the control of the People, then the first step has to be getting the money out of the control of the government, and since they are now able to use real, Silver-backed Liberty Dollars-- instead of Federal Reserve Debt Notes, they're already on the road to re-securing their freedoms!

Weed slows cancer
In 1974 researchers at the Medical College of Virginia, who had been funded by the National Institute of Health to find evidence that marijuana damages the immune system, found instead that THC slowed the growth of three kinds of cancer in mice – lung and breast cancer, and a virus-induced leukemia.
The DEA quickly shut down the Virginia study and all further cannabis/tumor research, according to Jack Herer, who reports on the events in his book, "The Emperor Wears No Clothes." In 1976 President Gerald Ford put an end to all public cannabis research and granted exclusive research rights to major pharmaceutical companies, who set out – unsuccessfully – to develop synthetic forms of THC that would deliver all the medical benefits without the "high."
Marijuana 'Canada's most valuable agricultural product'
Marijuana is also a growth industry in terms of jobs, with people earning $15 an hour for trimming the dried flowers and consultants earning $40 an hour to help inexperienced growers get started.
Canada, which has legalised cannabis for medical use, has authorised a company to grow marijuana for this purpose.
BlueJacketing makes BBC news
Phone owners now have something else to do with their handset: bluejacking.
beer fueled phonecalls
Thanks to cheaper Internet phone dialing, Labatt Brewery was able to offer a free long-distance phone service to thousands of residents of Ontario, Canada.
There was just one catch: every time any of the 1,000 new subscribers a day dialed out, they had to listen to a 10-second Labatt commercial. "It's not as cheesy as 'This call brought to you by Labatt,'" a company spokesman said.
But Labatt BlueLine, launched last summer, used voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology to dramatically lower costs by sending calls out on the Internet rather than a telephone company's privately owned network.

Understand Your Dog
Dr. Dolittle watch out!
This crazy new device is attached to your dogs collar, when it makes a noise/growl etc. the device performs an on-the-fly English translation, like "I want food".
I wonder if it'll work on other animals?
Dr. Dolittle: This fellow obviously knows what he's talking about.
Matthew: Who wrote the book, Doctor?
Dr. Dolittle: Er. Oh, I did.
Trivia about Doctor Dolittle:
*Rex Harrison was frequently bitten by the animals.
*No one expected that shooting a scene with ducks swimming in a pond would be difficult. However, when the ducks were placed onto the pond they sank! Apparently it was the wrong time of year and the ducks had lost their water-repellent feathers and couldn't swim.

Victoria's Secret Web site allowed shoppers to take a peek at other customers' orders. An apparent flaw in the lingerie giant's ordering system made it possible to tweak customer ID numbers and see what kind of knickers people were buying - a clear violation of Victoria's Secret online privacy policy.
