Alien Skull Discovered?
SHOCKING: Is this an alien skull? Mystery of giant-headed mummy found in Peru.
A mummified elongated skull found in Peru could finally prove the existence of aliens.
The strangely shaped head - almost as big as its 50cm (20in) body - has baffled anthropologists.
It was one of two sets of remains found in the city of Andahuaylillas in the southern province of Quispicanchi.
The skeletal sets were discovered by Renato Davila Riquelme, who works for the Privado Ritos Andinos museum in Cusco in south-eastern Peru.
He said that that the eye cavities are far larger than normally seen in humans.
There is a soft spot in the skull - called an open fontanelle - which is a characteristic of children in their first year of life, yet the skull also has two large molars, only found in much older humans.

“Many Occupy protesters have been openly contemptuous of Democrats, including President Barack Obama, arguing that both political parties are equally beholden to corporate interests and responsible for enacting policies that have hurt the middle class,” the Associated Press writes.
The trend has prompted political analysts to wonder whether Obama can win reelection without the fierce support he engendered in 2008.
But Fairey, a longtime supporter of the Occupy protests and Obama, seems to be warning his fans not to give up on Obama just yet: “Change is not about one election, one rally, one leader, it is about a constant dedication to progress and a constant push in the right direction. Let’s be the people doing the right thing as outsiders and simultaneously push the insiders to do the right thing for the people.”

In 2008, Shepard Fairey created a political poster that became iconic, and undoubtedly help get Barack Obama elected president. Now, Fairey has tweaked the “Hope” image — “the bright colors, bold lettering, geometric simplicity, heroic poses,” as The Post’s William Booth wrote ofObama’s poster 2008 — for today’s milieu. The new poster replaces Obama (or perhaps simply covers his face?) with the Occupy Wall Street and Anonymous image of the Guy Fawkes mask.
It is, Fairey writes, both a statement of support for the Occupy movement — and a sign of support for Obama.
“As flawed as the system is, I see Obama as a potential ally of the Occupy movement if the energy of the movement is perceived as constructive, not destructive. I still see Obama as the closest thing to “a man on the inside” that we have presently,” he posted to hisWeb site Friday. The Occupy movement and the Democratic Party have had an uneasy relationship since the start of the two-month-old protests.

Guys, listen up. A study says it is actually healthy to stare at a woman's breasts.
Five-hundred men participated in the German study. Half were told to refrain from looking at breasts for five years, the other half were told to ogle them daily.
The study found the men who stared at breasts more often showed lower rates of heart problems, a lower resting heart rate and lower blood pressure.
The authors of the study recommend that men stare at breasts for 10 minutes a day.
Study: Stare at Boobies, Live longer.
Hoax or not a hoax… Do you agree with this ‘study’?

The genre began in ancient Egypt, when a bunch of people said to themselves "Hey, those mummified corpses we keep around everywhere are actually kind of creepy," and performed a play about them coming to life and killing ancient Egyptian teenagers.
Unfortunately, the performers were then put to death for blasphemy, and the horror movie genre went underground until the beginning of the 20th Century. Since then it has diversified into many different subgenres. The popularity of these subgenres often reflects contemporary issues in society (see The Real World Fears Behind 8 Popular Movie Monsters.)

What was going on in Zuccotti Park?
Some of the activity that went down there was well documented. There were allegations of sexual assault. There were the growing health concerns. And CBS 2 cameras caught topless women dancing there. (Awesome)
But what else may have been cooking? CBS 2 has learned about some of the items that were removed from the park during yesterday’s raid.
Among the items found during the scouring of the park: At least two dozen hypodermic needles.
Numerous tents, books and other possessions were also recovered by sanitation workers and police officers during the raid.
Julie Wood with the Mayor’s Press Office said several truck loads of items had been removed from the park.
Dozens of Hypodermic Needles discovered as officials need several trucks to remove waste from #OWS Camping site at Zuccotti Park.
WTF?
HYPODERMIC NEEDLES
FOUND AT OCCUPY WS
Note: I'm all for protests. If you got a vision, run with it. If you have an army of people that believe in what you do...go out and share your frustration. There's no doubt DC is broken. But, when I heard about this it only added to my skeptism. Is this a serious movement or what? Blah.

We have a thing for getting sideways with classic cocktails and then turning them into poptails. This week the classic rum and coke has been flipped to a Dirty Pirate.
That’s rum and coke with a some Kahlua. While we’d love to take credit for this awesomely named cocktail, we can’t, but we are taking credit for turning it into a poptail ,at the suggestion of a co-worker. Pirates, Coke and booze, yeah, Thursday is getting better already. And just in case you need a variation, replace the Kahlua with peach schnapps for a Dirty Pirate Hooker. Play nice and play safe. Happy Pirating this Thursday.
Instructions:
*Slightly flat Coke will produce a popsicle that stays frozen longer. To quickly and manually flatten out the carbonation, empty out enough Coke from a 2-liter bottle to leave a 3-inch space from top of bottle to top of coke. Place cap back on and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Set aside to leave bubbles to subside.
Wow! Coke, Captain Morgan spiced rum and Kahlua.

Please, try unhating your enemies in a less disturbing way?
Lake Bell just spilled her coffee. The French press, as she tells us, is very precarious business. You can't smash down on it too quickly. "It looks like a coffee death scene. I blew my load. I blew my coffee load all over my kitchen is what I'm saying." And yet somehow the 32-year-old actress is able to salvage the rest of the interview. Not that it was an interview so much as a stream-of-consciousness adventure through all things charming and strange. The star of HBO's How to Make It in America is funny (see her on Adult Swim's Childrens Hospital). She writes and directs (see her short film Worst Enemy, which made it into Sundance earlier this year), is a self-described motorhead (see her automotive column in The Hollywood Reporter, "Test Drive"), and gives a mean prison tattoo, at least at her boarding school at the age of 14 (see the plus sign on her ankle). Oh, and she loves airplane staple SkyMall: "I mean, shit. Have you seen the zombie gnomes?" And this is without coffee.

“What’s cool about this season, is that—much like my French press—my character Rachel is a total mess. It’s much more interesting to play – hold on a second. [To her dog] Margaret, in your bed. In your bed. Good girl. Okay. This season in general is just more vibrant, it’s playful, it’s funnier.”

Note: I watched the full first season of "How to Make It in America" on HBO...and Lake Bell really didn't catch my eye. But, I don't know...she's really smoking hot in season 2. I'm a fan.
