Sea of remembrance, peace – The Honolulu Advertiser
The Chairman and I attended last night’s Lantern Floating ceremony at Ala Moana Beach Park in Honolulu. It was moving and beautiful to see a thousand paper lanterns honoring the dead floating off onto the waves. Surfers stood out in silhouette against the sky as they herded stray lanterns. We watched one lantern make a…
Dozens hurt in cheese roll race
Now that’s my kind of sport… A teenager who knocked himself out while chasing a Double Gloucester cheese down a hill was among 25 people hurt in a Cheese Rolling competition. Chris Anderson, 18, won one of the five races which make up the annual contest, in which dozens of people race down a 1:2…

I always found maps interesting not only in the supposed accuracy of geography but the representational relationship with the items they represent. Like wheat, hogs, crime, hurricanes or incidence of extra digits, maps are sexy in their delusion. B.E. . radicalcartography

Lifestyles of the Despotic Dictators
I just came across a short blurb about Dictator Style in Esquire this morning in the, ahem, reading room. From what the reviews are saying it is a book like no other. Unfortunately, the pictures aren’t what you would hope. The Esquire blurb had the horrible picture from one of Saddam’s palaces below… cd Dictator…

Naked on Everest: a peek on the peak? – Yahoo! News
Oh goodness my friends, this is another of the long awaited signs of the Shananapocalypse. On top of that (no pun intended) we would like to congratulate Lakpa Tharke for getting naked in a place that has seen no nakedness in recorded history. We strongly encourage people to get naked everywhere. Nudity is natural and…
Fascists, Christians, and Cops go Gay Bashing in Moscow
Here at Incredible Fukn.us we are proud to say that we like Gay People. We don’t like gay bashers. If we were in Moscow, we would gladly have marched with the GLBT Muscavites and we would have thrown rocks at the cops, and we probably would have turned the whole thing into a riot. We…
