Mad Plans for Mad Cow; Scary Sexy Men; Bush War; and Disney did STDs?
Mind-bending news to change your life and welcome you back to your cubicle.
1. Disney and STDs, who knew they were such an item? VD Attack Plan, made in 1973, was a Disney short educational cartoon (unexpectedly mixed with some horrific real pictures) that centers on a very aggressive STD giving a military attack plan to various STD armies. I'm actually quite convinced my mom made me watch this as a baby because I've always thought that STD-infected human beings came with huge X's over their crotches, and viruses and germs wore army hats and looked liked turds. Be warned, after watching this, you might want to throw up or simply not ever want to have sex again. Actually, it makes a lot of sense this was Disney.
2. NYT gets their grubby hands on a 5 page confidential memo distributed by President Bush to Prime Minister Blair weeks before the Iraqi invasion, reviews it, and reports that it basically says that war was inescapable for our camp (that is, "presence of WMD be damned, war war war" or that is what I imagine the title to be). According to the NYT interpretation of the memo, the leaders believed the war to be quick and victorious for the US-UK team and the transition to a new Iraqi government would be complex yet doable. My only concern here is...what in Iraqi caused the breakup between the golden couple of "qu"?
3. Young men who have a positive body image also engage in riskier sexual activities, that is, condomless and multi-partnered, according to a recent survey from Pennsylvania State University in University Park. Women, on the other hand, who were the most satisfied with their physical appearance, went the other route and were less likely to engage in risky sexual behavior. This perhaps explains the once-bizarre phenomenon of hotness-and-um, opposite of that couples that persist. (Reuters)
4. Omigod! Roberto Cavalli was convicted for tax invasion in a Florence Court last Thursday and was sentenced to fourteen months in prison. In 2002, it was discovered he spent £1.8 million on his villa's refurbishment and expensed it through his company. Cavalli argues that his home is the headquarters for his label, and of course, he will appeal, appeal, appeal (thrice so that the third is hopefully to the masses with his sexy dresses?). (Vogue)
5. In a press conference earlier this month, Department Chief Veterinarian John Clifford announced that the USDA will start on their plans to scale back on its already minimal mad cow testing program. The U.S. now tests about 1% of its cattle for mad cow, whereas Japan tests nearly all of its cattle and the European Union tests all cattle over the age of 30 months old. In a minor victory for myself, this gives me another small reason to not touch veal. (Time)
6. Apparently the Federline-Spears have a thing for little people. For K-Fed's birthday at Tao, Las Vegas, last week, two female midgets carried his birthday cake, and later, the tabloid-happy couple enjoyed a rendition of "I Got You Babe" sung by a Cher impersonator and a midget Sonny Bono. You only think "elegance" when you think of the Federline-Spears. (Page Six)
