| New UK Service That Matches People Via Mobile Phone
In addition to the basic service YourMyCrush.com will soon be expanding to include an online store, dating tips, an advice forum and other customisable areas for users to make use of with their mobile phones. The service is presently limited to UK mobile phone networks but will shortly be providing access to other countries in Europe and the rest of the world. Overall, this is a simple idea, executed cleanly, providing a very helpful and (so far) very successful new mobile match making system. The key demographic is young teens and the "school youth" area, however the site has seen a number of 'older' people use the system successfully too. At the end of the day you are only as old as you feel. About YourMyCrush.com: http://YourMyCrush.com is a mobile content provider and unique mobile service provider for the United Kingdom.
New tattoo and wedding vows for Bif Naked
The bride was rocker Bif Naked, but there was nothing punk about the wedding ceremony celebrated Saturday in Vancouver. Bif Naked, whose real name is Beth Torbert, married Vancouver Sun sportswriter Ian Walker in a 30-minute ceremony at St. Andrews Wesley United Church that featured readings from the Bible and an exchange of vows. Beth Torbert, left, also known as Bif Naked, married Ian Walker in Vancouver on Saturday. (Richard Lam/Canadian Press) However, in a major departure from tradition, the couple sealed their bond with tattoos. Naked has had Walker's signature tattooed on her arm while Walker has a stylized B emblazoned on his hip. Torbert is already heavily tattooed with Buddhist and Hindu poetry, symbols of the Tao and an Egyptian eye of Horus. During the wedding Torbert, who played with punk bands Gorilla Gorilla and Chrome Dog before going solo, wore a cream-coloured minidress with a detachable skirt, a pink veil and a long train.
Teen Sleeps With 50 Men In 2 years....!!!
Just read this article in The Sun. The depressing thing is, I wasn't shocked by it. Promiscuity amongst teens is becoming all too common, but the repurcussions are far-reaching: (1) We have the highest rates of teenage pregnancy and abortion in Europe. (2) We have the highest incidences of STD's in Europe. (3) It seems our taxes will now be paying kids to undergo "sex therapy" as the 15 year old girl in the story did, because it seems to be the only way for them to see the error of their ways. Can't blame immigrants for this one. Can't blame the government who cannot be expected to chaperon every youth in the UK. Can't blame the schools because sex edcuation most definately is on the agenda but the sexually rampant young teens are too busy skiving to attend those classes. I blame the media for over-sexualising everything.
MySpace agrees to new safety measures
An official familiar with the multistate agreement said that MySpace, the huge online social networking Web site, has agreed to include several online protections and participate in a working group to develop age-verification and other technologies. The official said MySpace will also accept independent monitoring and changes to the structure of its site. The agreement is scheduled to be announced today in Manhattan by attorneys general from New Jersey, North Carolina, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the agreement hadn’t yet been announced. The attorneys general have been seeking greater controls for online networking sites to prevent sexual predators from using those sites to contact children.
