How in the fuck does Adult Friend Finder know where
I live?!? This is really freaking me out. Every
site I visit that they advertise on they've got my
location pegged. Do they just have a massive IP
database and know what city vendors serve them from
somewhere? I tried connecting through an anonymous
proxy in CA, and for the first three or so
refreshes, it appeared to give me advertisements
for random cities (Denver, Salt Lake City,
Seattle), and then gave me this:

Developing Democracies: Candidates for local
office in Brazil can either register under their
own names or make them up, and in the October
election this year, three candidates chose "Barack
Obama" (none won), and others registered under
"Bill Clinton," "Jorge Bushi" and "Chico Bin
Laden," but more than 200 offered themselves under
the name of the country's popular president, Luiz
Inacio Lula da Silva. [Daily Telegraph (London),

From the self-composed obituary in the Casper
(Wyo.) Star Tribune of James William "Jim" Adams,
who died September 9th: "Jim, who had tired of
reading obituaries noting other's [sic] courageous
battles with this or that disease, wanted it known
that he had lost his battle ... primarily as a
result of ... not following doctor's orders. ... He
was sadly deprived of his final wish, which was to
be run over by a beer truck on the way to the
liquor store to buy booze for a date." [Casper Star
Tribune, 9-23-08]
The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, a direct
action animal rights organization led by Captain
Paul Watson, will get some well-deserved attention
in an upcoming seven-part Animal Planet television
series titled “Whale Wars,” set to premier November
7th.The group formed in 1977 after Watson, one of
the founders of Greenpeace, became frustrated with
the seminal environmental group’s hesitation to
engage in direct action. Since then the group has
faced down whalers year-after-year by literally
chasing their ships around the open seas.Unlike
most direct action activism, Watson insists that
Sea Shepherd’s anti-whaling campaigns are entirely
legal. He cites international treaties under the
International Whaling Commission that state that
any human has the right to interfere with illegal
poaching or whaling
The makers of Mail Goggles, the popular application
for drunk people, have announced their next Labs
innovation: automated e-mails.“Canned Responses”
allows you to harness filters on incoming messages
and create a stock pile of automated, cookie cutter
responses. And you don’t even have to click
“Send,” as Gmail will do that for you as well.The
new feature was designed based on feedback from
users in Google’s forums.
Canned Responses could be pretty useful for those
clever enough crack the math of Mail Goggles and
send out a drunk e-mail. While you recover from
that hangover, let Gmail handle the e-mail
apologies.
You think Batman's pretty cool, don't you? Probably
couldn't be any cooler, right? Wrong. Step outside
of America, and you find a Batman who guns down bad
guys with a revolver, and has naked sex with the
ladies he rescues.
The American Original:
In his 1978 Film, Superman apprehends those who
commit crimes. The love of Lois Lane helps the
superpowered Kryptonian maintain his humanity.
The Foreign Rip-Off:
In this Bollywood extravaganza, Superman and Indian
Lois Lane (a.k.a. Indian Spiderwoman) use the power
of dance to commit crimes against humanity.

Britain's Bristol City Council warned residents in
government housing in September to always leave
their sheds unlocked. Otherwise, thieves would have
to break the doors down to get inside, and
taxpayers would be stuck with the repair bills.

Chilean-Danish artist Marco Evaristti is working
with condemned Texas inmate Gene Hathorn, 47
(convicted killer of three in 1985), on an anti-
capital-punishment exhibit. The murderer's body
would be frozen, then placed live goldfish in
several electric blenders and invited museum-goers
to turn them on. [Newsweek, 9-27-08]
An unfortunate burst of wind disrupted an outside
art installation at the Paul Klee center in Bern,
Switzerland, in August, ripping an inflatable
exhibit from its moorings and carrying it away. The
exhibit, by American Paul McCarthy, was a sculpture
entitled "Complex Shit," and the inflatable item
was supposed to be a dog dropping the size of a
house. Explained the Klee center's Web site
(challengingly), the show features "interweaving,
diverse, not to say conflictive emphases and a
broad spectrum of items to form a dynamic exchange
of parallel and self-eclipsing spatial and temporal
zones." (Or, wrote London's Daily Telegraph in
broken French, it is "what happens when la merde
hits le ventilateur.") [Daily Telegraph (London),

Things Government Does When It's Not Bailing Out
the Economy: The municipal transit company in
Austin, Texas, unveiled a rider-education campaign
in August, giving step-by-step instructions in how
to stand up on buses without falling over. When the
bus is accelerating, "lean forward and put your
weight on your front foot." (The introductory frame
on the poster features a harried rider exclaiming,
"Help! I'll never figure it out!") [American-
Statesman, 8-18-08]
In Anderson Township, Ohio, in July, another
frustrated lover, angry that his girlfriend kept
falling asleep one night during sex, retaliated,
according to police, by attempting to set fire to
her van. (The 46-year-old man who couldn't sustain
his lover's interest is Gregory Smallwood.)

Least Competent Criminals: A 30-year-old man
appears to be the most recent person (according to
the account of police in Woodland, Calif., in
August) to attempt to throw burning fireworks at a
target while traveling in a car, but having the
toss fail to clear the window and thus explode
inside the car. He was hospitalized. [Sacramento

The estimated one million Japanese (almost all
males) who suffer from the major anti-social funk
called "Hikikomori" and confine themselves inside
(typically, a bedroom in their parents' home) for
months at a time without live human interaction has
been mentioned in News of the Weird in 2000 and
2005. In July, the Japanese software company Avex
produced a video to help those men, simply
featuring a series of young women staring into the
lens, occasionally saying "Good morning," so that
Hikikomori sufferers can practice feeling the gazes
of strangers. [France24.com, 7-30-08]
In a few years you might have a pill to help you
forget your bad breakup just the way Jim Carey did
in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. With a
high dose of just one enzyme, scientists can now
erase very specific memories while you're in the

TAYBEH, West Bank (AFP) — Some Palestinians have taken up arms and others attend peace talks in their decades-long struggle, but Nadim Khoury has found a third route to statehood -- the brewing of delicious local beer.
The 49-year-old returned to his native West Bank village of Taybeh from the United States in 1994 with the unusual and ambitious idea of distilling the dream of Palestinian independence into a smooth, full-bodied golden lager.

CodePink Protests on Wall Street
Protests are also continuing on Wall Street. Earlier this week, Dana Balicki and other members of the group Code Pink demonstrated outside the New York Stock Exchange.
Dana Balicki: “Over the past two weeks, in fact, protesting the bailout; protesting the billions more for Wall Street, for the friends of Henry Paulson and the Bush administration; and recognizing that with all of that money going for the bailout, there was going to be way less money to go for any of the social issues that we are—social programs that actually stabilize our society, that actually bring strength to the American economy.”

Crowd Member Yells Obama Threat at Palin Rally
On the campaign trail, Senators Barack Obama and John McCain square off tonight in a town-hall debate in Nashville, Tennessee. Republicans have intensified attacks on Obama as polls show McCain losing ground in key battleground states, including Ohio. On Monday, Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin continued to invoke Obama’s connection to Bill Ayers, a former member of the militant 1960s antiwar group, the Weather Underground.
