A WEBSITE is holding a contest to find the country's smallest manhood – and
the winner gets an iPhone.
The erotica site invited men to send in photos of their privates in a
follow-up to an earlier bid to find "the most beautiful" tackle.
The man with the smallest member will win, but women will also crown a second
winner based on votes from the site's female fans.
Those top two will win an iPhone, and second and third prizes are an iPad 3.
Morten Fabricius, 45 who runs the site in Denmark said: "It's a
contest at the core of manhood, the most important thing for a man.
"There are so many unhappy men out there, who think you have to have a giant
penis, but it's not normal to have a huge one."
Fabricius said he hoped the funny and quirky aspect of the competition would
enable people to poke a little fun at a sensitive subject, and give them
enough courage to post images anonymously.
The rules are simple: send a photo to the website with your member and a
measuring tape next to it.
The competition runs until January 31, 2013.
Fabricius added: "So far we have received six to seven images, but we have
more trickling in, which we are vetting to make sure they are not stolen
from the web."
The smallest manhood ever recorded sets the record at 0.39 inches.

The 'Year of the Bus' gets off to a promising start at London Transport Museum, with a season of events that all sound promising. First up, catch bus supremo Leon Daniels in conversation with Robert Elms about the challenges of running the country's biggest bus network (4 February, £10).
A Friday Late on Valentine's Day lets you explore the museum with a glass of wine, and an early look at the Serco Prize for Illustration, which is this year themed on London Stories (14 February, £10).
Three of our favourite London authors gather in March to discuss their books: Travis Elborough (A London Year; London Bridge in America; The Bus We Loved), Hannah Velten (Beastly London, which was Londonist's book of the year 2013) and Mark Mason (Walk The Lines). (3 March, £10)
Finally, there's another chance to visit the Museum's Acton Depot, with a special exhibition of buses (15-16 March, £10).
The museum's events have a wonderful yet potentially frustrating tendency to get fully booked, so get your tickets ASAP.

Japanese shares outperformed on Thursday thanks to a weaker yen while the rest of Asian investors cheered stimulus-supportive remarks from Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Janet Yellen.
Ahead of Janet Yellen's Thursday's testimony to Congress, she released a statement after the U.S. market close. She said the Federal Reserve needs to do more work to support the economic recovery before it can return to "a more normal approach" to monetary policy, echoing the sentiment of Chairman Ben Bernanke.

I had a great weekend of watching basketball. I rooted for all the underdogs, including my Alma Mater, USC, who won in the first round but lost yesterday. I rooted for the underdogs despite the fact I picked very few of them on my bracket sheet. It made the weekend fun, even though by end of yesterday they had all lost.
But I didn't spend the entire weekend on b-ball. While ODing on hoops, I took the time to go through the typeset text galleys my editor sent a few weeks ago. I know. It's about time, huh? I wasn't supposed to look for typos, just things I felt no longer worked after seeing them in galley form. I didn't have any big changes (I know my editor will be glad to hear that). So I'm sending the marked pages off to her today. I think the next time I see the book it will be in official galley form.
On one hand I can't wait. On the other, I'm getting nervous. I really, really, really want people to like it. It's a strange take on a zombie tale, and I'm starting to feel the flop sweat--thinking I may have made a huge mistake I can NEVER take back. Once it's out there... it's out there. That can be good AND bad.
I thought I'd feel exhilarated, my first YA novel is about to be published. Maybe it's just the Monday blahs. I hope so. I'll let you know tomorrow.
Sleep tight...

Therefore, for ease, resinous & balsamic materials are classified into 3 distinct olfactory profiles according to their aromatic properties first and foremost." These are soft balsamic smelling, resinous balsamic smelling and powdery balsamic smelling. More details including pictures at Perfume Shrine.
Now some definitions beyond the definition of balsamic as relating to balsam, as illuminated above.
Balsamic can refer to any fragrant ointment, specifically those used for ceremonial or medicinal use.
Balsamic can refer to any substance or energy that heals, soothes, or restores.
And of course, there's balsamic vinegar.
There's also in astrology the balsamic moon, which occurs when the Moon is less than 45 degrees behind the natal Sun. Per wikipedia: "The balsamic Moon is said to relate to one's commitment to destiny, so whenever the Moon is placed in this position it is at a very crucial point, and attention should be made to the earthly events that occur during such an astrological configuration. The balsamic moon also is said to relate to healing and rest, since it is the last phase before the Dark (or New) Moon."

Wet n Wild® started in 1979 with a focus on nail polish. The company has a passion for nail health and well-manicured hands, which is evidenced by its wide and detailed nail health products.
A manicure is very personal for most women. A woman's manicure provides insight into the type of woman she is. A properly applied French manicure can be found on a strong, smart, independent woman. Captivating, glittering nails are typically found on a woman with a buoyant personality. In a professional setting, a perfect manicure is that extra element, that "last little thing," representing someone who is detail-oriented and takes that extra step in all aspects of her life.
Wet n Wild has been the top value brand in nail care for the past few decades because they care about their customers and their craft. Wet n Wild knows that beauty products are a necessity; they see that quality products are essential to your makeup routine and understand that spending your entire paycheck on a lipstick is just not reasonable.
The very foundation of Wet n Wild is to provide an alternative option for consumers that need quality beauty products at affordable prices.
Wet n Wild modeled their "Wet n Wild Cares" program based on this very ideal. They believe that giving back to the communities in which they operate through monetary and product donations, as well as providing emotional support whenever possible, is not only contributory, but absolutely necessary of any company.

Jim Morrison said it best, "Listen, real poetry doesn't say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through any one that suits you." I'll admit it on the outset – I can't write poetry. Good thing the inability to write poetry (or at least poetry that doesn't evoke peals of sidesplitting laughter) doesn't dampen my ability to appreciate a good poem. .MOV International Film, Music, & Literature Festival has teamed up with The Antithesis Collective Publishing Co. to produce an anthology of epic proportions.
The collection is aptly entitled Under the Storm: An Anthology of Contemporary Philippine Poetry and features the works of 150 poets (known and unknown, emerging new talent and enduring poets). With this eclectic mix of poems in various styles and techniques, Under the Storm holds a lot of promise within its 360something pages. Under the Storm is geared for launch tomorrow, September 2, 2011 at the Ayala Museum. Cocktails start at 6PM.
Under the Storm: An Anthology of Contemporary Philippine Poetry is available for pre-order at theantithesiscollective.com/shop for PHP 450 (pre-ordering ends today). It will be sold at the 4th .MOV International Film, Music, & Literature Festival (Sept. 1-6) for the special festival price of PHP 600. Once The Storm hits the shelves, its regular retail price will be PHP 800.

text: The summer season is coming fast and with it are some great anime. Here's my top 15 anime I can't wait to see in the summer time. As I did with my last upcoming video, I rank these anime based on the anime trailer, the succes of the manga or novel, characters design, producers, story and its popularity. Hope you enjoy this video and please tell me which anime you can't wait to see this hopefully not so hot summer... Don't forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT.
