Indian husband uses secret sex video to extort dowry

May 13th, 2008 by Maria

Here’s a dead giveaway – unbeknowst to you, he makes a sex tape and then blackmails your family with the saucy tape!

Well, that’s what this distraught woman in India found out; apparently hubby dearest had been donning the director’s cap when they went for a rough and tumble in the bedroom.

And that’s not all! The man clearly has a get-rich-quick plan as he has threated to post the sex tape on a pornography site on the Internet unless the family pays up a hefty dowry – a staggering 8 million rupees ($200 000).

By the way, did I mention that the poor family had already dished out a mega $10 000 worth in twinkling jewelery?

His wife should blog about her nasty hubby and upload his details.

I mean, he admits to browsing porn, wanted to upload his own home video and is now released on bail for threatening his wife’s family. Can you imagine what prospective employers will stumble across when they Google his details?

Amazing foldable cars

May 9th, 2008 by Maria

As urban populations around the world continue to grow at an alarming pace, cities are quickly running out of space. The overcrowding causes a lot of problems, and for car owners, there are few things more frustrating than the lack of suitable parking spots. Having to drive around the same block twenty times while desperately looking for a place to park is enough to make even the most polite drivers spew curse words.

In an attempt to find a solution, smart scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology came up with the intriguing idea of small foldable cars that can be stacked together like shopping carts! Amazing, isn’t it?


There’s a giant monster behind you! Run for your lives!

Pets on Wheels

May 5th, 2008 by Maria

Who says pets can’t benefit from technology? The days of having to put your dog or cat to sleep because they are no longer in great shape are over. Now herniated discs, amputations, and paralysis mean nothing, because you can order a set of custom “wheels” for your pet that will get them going again in no time! Manufactures have made sure to build them waterproof, land-proof, and play proof, because what is the point of giving your disabled pet back their mobility if they can’t fully utilize it?

Dogs on wheels

And those people out there who are in to more exotic pets don’t have to fret about what will happen to their injured tortoises, turtles, or lizards. Pet wheels have been proven to work for reptiles as well. Writer Jim Lee built a set of custom wheels for an injured Box Turtle that allowed her to run around his house and even go outside.

Check out these wheels for a paralyzed turtle!

In our capable hands

May 2nd, 2008 by Maria

Talk about a “hands-on” approach.

The British based Office of Government Commerce (OGC) is a well-meaning organization that aims at “improving value for money by driving up standards and capability in procurement”.

More of a let’s not leave things be, let’s make stuff happen sort of cool attitude.

Shocked cat

You got the name, you got your mission statement, all you need is a chic logo and some well needed marketing. And that’s what they did. Unfortunately for the distinguished group of gentlemen and ladies, there was a bit of a hiccup at the design level. Oh, it looked sleek and matter of fact, minimalist and yet modern … but let’s say it needed a bit of lateral thinking!

Once OGC had paid a hefty £14 000 for their logo and unveiled it to their eager staff members, a most unbecoming picture came to light. As the delightfully tickled staff pointed out, when you turned the fancy logo vertically, the image gave a whole new meaning to “tight fisted” approach.

Needless to say, all marketing stationary bearing the embarrassing logo was quickly packed away.

As one spokesperson for OGC said: “It is not inappropriate to an organization that’s looking to have a firm grip on Government spend.”

This is the wrong instance to say firm grip.

When good animals are used by bad people

April 28th, 2008 by Maria

Sometimes people find themselves in situations where they really want to attack someone, but don’t have a traditional weapon at hand. So they improvise. In New Zealand, William Singalargh used a hedgehog as a projectile and managed to wound a younger man’s leg. He was later arrested for assault with a weapon, though it is doubtful a hedgehog is on the list of weapons police normally look for in assault cases.

Clown urinal

April 25th, 2008 by Maria

A lot of people think clowns are creepy. This latest “innovation” from Japan probably wouldn’t help change their minds.

Weird urinal

Yes, it’s a male urinal shaped like the head of a Japanese clown with a wide open mouth. If you didn’t like clowns before, you’ll definitely be having nightmares after this.

Japanese engineers are brilliant, but why do they always come up with strange ideas like this? Don’t they have concern for people who suffer from shy bladders? Having a creepy face staring at them while they’re trying to do their business would just make things more difficult, wouldn’t it?

And it gets worse. It moves!

Milk it for all its worth

April 22nd, 2008 by Maria

Talk about serenading the domestic ones.

An innovative dairy farmer has struck upon the perfect milking solution! He has turned to the ancient art of Tai Chi to coax and relax his beloved cows… you know so that they produce better, creamier and yummier milk.

Laughing cows

For a minute there that sentence was headed down a very questionable path.

When good bras go bad

April 21st, 2008 by Maria

Victoria’s Secret stores are known for their softer side, specializing in the sale of high-end bras and panties. But the retail chain was in for a hard surprise when Jessica Lang of Greenville, SC, filed a lawsuit against them after claiming she was injured by a bra!

Giant bra

Feeling discomfort in her breast one morning, she removed the offensive undergarment to alleviate the pain and it left her with a 3-inch long laceration. Following the incident she sought treatment and missed several days of work, which led, she says, to her losing her job. Though Ms. Lang is suing for medical expenses, future disability, pain and suffering, and loss of future prospects (she claims this injury will hurt her possible career as a model), Victoria’s Secret is denying the allegations.

They claim the injury is the result of her own recklessness. :)
