Somehow I Think Mom Knows That's Not A Very Convincing Ghost Costume.

A power cord, line cord, or mains cable is a cable that temporarily connects an appliance to the mains electricity supply via a wall socket or extension cord. The terms are generally used for cables using a power plug to connect to a single-phase alternating current power source at the local line voltage—(generally 100 to 240 volts, depending on the location). The terms power cable, mains lead, flex or kettle lead are also used. A lamp cord is a light weight ungrounded two wire cord used for small loads such as a table or floor lamp. The term cord set is also used to distinguish those cords that include connectors molded to the cord at each end.

Ace Hardware was founded in 1924 by Richard Hesse, E. Gunnard Lindquist, Frank Burke, and Oscar Fisher in Chicago, Illinois. Ace Hardware, incorporated in 1928 as Ace Stores Inc., was founded to provide a centralized purchasing organization to supply the founders' and members' stores. The company was named after the Ace fighter pilots of World War I, who were able to overcome all odds. Ace Hardware's retail network expanded to hundreds of dealers by 1949, when annual sales reached about $10 million.

Ah, pornography. No longer is it exclusively the pastime of sweaty men with comb-overs or hidden away in windowless back-alley sex shops. Nowadays, porn is an everyman, catering to almost any predilection or desire. It's only a mouse-click away and it's big business. At its best it is a world of physical idealism and escapist fantasy dedicated to the fulfillment of hedonistic pleasure. It's even a progressive industry where female performers are often more highly paid than their male counterparts. But not everything is rosy in this world of sexual illusion. Exploitation, drug abuse and AIDS are as much a part of porn as silicone and stunt cocks. And for some porn stars, their career in the skin flick spotlight is cut painfully short. Murder, suicide, overdoses and others... odd deaths are surprisingly common.

Stretching is a form of physical exercise in which a specific skeletal muscle (or muscle group) is deliberately elongated[citation needed], often by abduction from the torso, in order to improve the muscle's felt elasticity and reaffirm comfortable muscle tone. The result is a feeling of increased muscle control, flexibility and range of motion. Stretching is also used therapeutically to alleviate cramps. In its most basic form, stretching is a natural and instinctive activity; it is performed by humans and many animals. It can be accompanied by yawning. Stretching often occurs instinctively after waking from sleep, after long periods of inactivity, or after exiting confined spaces and areas.

Silver ink is dense and free-flowing for writing on leather, rubber, for signing cards, wedding announcements, and can be used to decorate China, glass, fabric, paper, plastic, metal, and most surfaces except vinyl. Waterproof and fade resistant, dries within minutes leaving a reflective, slightly embossed finish. Silver markers showcase creative expression in sparkling gold and silver, adding a dramatic effect to permanent marking on posters, calendars, signs and decorations. Low-odor formula, xylene free, and nontoxic.

When people talk about the wives and girlfriends of pro athletes, it usually has something to do with how hot they are or how big their tits are. But we shouldn't focus solely on the attractiveness of player wives, because the reality is these women often do a lot of amazing work to make the communities they live in better. So today I thought I'd bring you a list of charitable player wives. Interestingly, it is so common for the wives of pro athletes to work tirelessly on behalf of charities that it proved impossible to come up with a difinitive list of the most charitable. So instead here is a list of women whose charitable activites stood out (e.g. big tits didn't hurt).

Gorilla Glue is a polyurethane glue. When exposed to moisture the adhesive reacts and creates a foaming action that fills voids as it cures. Gorilla Glue has an open working time of 20 minutes. The glue is brown in colour, but dries a tan colour. Owned by a family company and manufactured by the Gorilla Glue Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, The brand Gorilla Glue and company was created by Mark Singer from the United States. Gorilla Glue is designed to bond fundamentally flat, smooth surfaces. As the glue expands while setting, it will fill minor gaps, however, such a bond is weak as the expanded glue contains entrapped air bubbles. Moisture in the air or the materials being bonded is usually sufficient to cause Gorilla Glue to cure. While the Gorilla Group and some of its competitors claim their cured adhesive is waterproof, other brands maintain only water-resistance. Popular Science Magazine published Gorilla Tape in their “Best of What’s New, 2006” Issue.

A black light, also referred to as a UV light, ultraviolet light, or Wood's lamp, is a lamp that emits ultraviolet radiation (UV) in the long-wave (near ultraviolet, UVA) range, and little visible light. Other types of ultraviolet lamp emit large amounts of visible light along with the ultraviolet; but a "black light" usually refers to a lamp that has a dark blue optical filtering material in the glass envelope of the bulb (or the lamp housing) which blocks most of the visible light, so the lamp emits mostly ultraviolet. Ultraviolet radiation is invisible, but a small fraction of visible light passes through the filtering material, with wavelengths no longer than 400-410 nm, and as a result, when operating the lamp has a dim purple or violet glow. Wood's glass is one type of filtering material which is used in black lights.

In his late 30s, Marquis Mills Converse, who was previously a respected manager at a footwear manufacturing firm, opened the Converse Rubber Shoe Company (unrelated to the Boston Rubber Shoe Company founded by fourth cousin Elisha Converse) in Malden, Massachusetts in February 1908. The company was a rubber shoe manufacturer, providing winterized rubber soled footwear for men, women, and children. By 1910, Converse was producing 4,000 shoes daily, but it was not until 1915 that the company began manufacturing athletic shoes for tennis. The company's main turning point came in 1917 when the Converse All-Star basketball shoe was introduced. Then in 1921, a basketball player named Charles H. "Chuck" Taylor walked into Converse complaining of sore feet. Converse gave him a job. He worked as a salesman and ambassador, promoting the shoes around the United States, and in 1923 his signature was added to the All Star patch.

A bimini top is an open-front canvas top for the cockpit of a boat, usually supported by a metal frame. Most bimini's can be collapsed when not in use, and raised again if shade or shelter from rain is desired. Bimini tops differ from dodgers in that dodgers include protection in front and on the sides, while a bimini does not. The bimini is used mostly as protection from the sun; it offers no protection from wind, rain, or spray when moving forward at any speed. Rain protection is only given if the boat is stationary and there is not any wind.

Hey you know all of those Hitler Downfall meme's running around Youtube? Here's one I haven't seen before -- the actual fucking translation.

Snowboarding is a sport that involves descending a slope that is covered with snow on a snowboard attached to a rider's feet using a special boot set onto a mounted binding. The development of snowboarding was inspired by skateboarding, sledding, surfing and skiing. It was developed in the U.S.A. in the 1960s to 1970s and became a Winter Olympic Sport in 1998. The early stereotypes of snowboarding have been known to be lazy, grungy, punk, stoners, troublemakers, and numerous others, many of which are associated with skateboarding and surfing as well. However, these stereotypes may be considered out of style. Snowboarding has become a sport that encompasses a very diverse fanbase, so much so that it's hard to stereotype such a large community. Skiers and snowboarders are becoming used to each other, showing more respect to each other on the mountain.

We've all seen how it works in countless B-movies and low-budget sci-fi shows: If you go out there without a spacesuit, space will explode the shit out of you. The pressure inside you compared to the pressure outside you will turn you inside out in the blink of an eye. It made a guy's eyes pop out of his skull in Total Recall, and even Bart and Homer Simpson died this way during a Halloween episode. Most people (correctly) assume that if the pressure outside an object is greater than the pressure inside, the object goes boom like a balloon in the upper atmosphere. So, if you take a human outside of the pressure of our atmosphere, after a few seconds, it's splat. Actually, Stanley Kubrick got it right in 2001: A Space Odyssey when astronaut Bowman totally survives a space walk without a helmet. You wouldn't want to hang around all day -- you can't breathe, after all -- but your head isn't going to pop like a meat balloon, either. In fact, the main dangers of being out of your suit in space are oxygen-related: breathing, naturally, and also holding air in your lungs, which leads into the lung-inflating trauma that scuba divers get when surfacing too quickly from great depths.

Bacardi Superior is rum made by the Bacardi Company[1]. In the US it is 80 proof, containing 40% abv (37.5% abv in the UK and Continental Europe). It is colourless and easy flowing and is thin in the body. This rum is mostly used to make cocktails calling for a white rum such as Cuba Libre, Daiquiri, Piña Colada, and Bacardi cocktail. Energy provided by a glass of Bacardi is around 118 calories. The Bacardi Company has a storied history, with its foundation taking place in Cuba and later moving to Puerto Rico and the Bahamas. Even though the headquarters has changed locations, the rum is still made using basically the same recipe from the past. The only things that have changed are the filtering and aging processes, and flavoring such as Bacardi O, which is orange flavored.

A man of his word, Alan then went on to send in some 136 cool ass pictures from his trip to the North American International Auto Show. NOTE: I've hosted them on erniestreet.com so (a) the link would be SFW and could be shared more easily and (b) not to beat the everloving shit out of the EHOWA server, since the erniestreet box sees much less traffic. I know that navigating between photos is a little clumsy right now, but I haven't hosted a gallery this large before so I'm still tinkering with the mechanics.

On June 20, 1919, Roy Allen opened a roadside root beer stand in Lodi, California, using a formula he had purchased from a pharmacist.[6] He soon opened additional stands in Stockton, California and five stands in nearby Sacramento, home of the country’s first drive-in featuring "tray-boys" for curbside service. In 1920, Allen became partners with Frank Wright and the two combined their initials and called their product A&W Root Beer. It has been mistakenly spread in some circles that A&W stands for Alice and Willard Marriot, which has arisen because Mr. Marriot's first business was an A&W franchise.

There was a time when female sports reporters, at least the sexy ones, were far and few between. If there was a beautiful woman talking about sports, she would be snatched up within a month and turned into a model, actress, etc. Nowadays, sexy female sports reporters exist in every sport, region, and country in the world. Even Nascar has some delectable treats in the pits. And ESPN has gone from a No Women Allowed club to a gallery of the hottest women in sports. So, pause the TIVO recording of The Bachelor, we all know she is making you watch it tonight, and check out the 20 sexiest female sports reporters of 2012.

Onyx, a young Labrador Retriever was involved in a horrific case of animal abuse in September. Animal control officers said the dog's owners tried to amputate his hind leg without anesthesia after he was hit by a car. He has now made a remarkable recovery. He runs on his long lanky legs, tail wagging side to side. Onyx is still trying to find his balance. You can call it puppy clumsiness, but look a little closer because this pup isn't fetching waves on all fours.

While on patrol with his unit -- 101st Airborne division third brigade 1/187 -- in Iraq in 2003, Sgt. 1st Class Josh Olson was struck with a rocket-propelled grenade resulting in the loss of his right leg from the hip down. After spending 18 months at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Olson received his assignment to the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit in Fort Benning, Ga. Showcasing courage, determination and inspiration, USA Shooting has announced the nomination of SFC Olson to the 2012 U.S. Paralympic Team. Olson is the first active-duty Soldier to be nominated for the Paralympic Games and first active-duty service member to ever be nominated to compete in shooting sports at the games.

Get Up And Fight, Sucker!

The second Ali-Liston fight was embraced by The Pine Tree State. Maine Governor John H. Reed announced to the press, "This fight is one of the greatest things to happen in Maine." Nevertheless, it would go down in history as a debacle. Due to the remote location (140 miles north of Boston), only 2,434 fans were present, setting the all-time record for the lowest attendance for a heavyweight championship fight. The ending of the second fight remains one of the most controversial in boxing history. Midway through the first round, Liston fell to the canvas, in what many have argued was not a legitimate knockdown. Referee Jersey Joe Walcott, a former world heavyweight champion himself, appeared confused after Ali refused to retreat to a neutral corner. Instead, Ali stood over his fallen opponent, gesturing and yelling at him, "Get up and fight, sucker!" The moment was captured by ringside photographer Neil Leifer in what has become one of the most iconic images in sport. Highlight reels and humorous press conferences may be most entertaining, but it's the creative photographers and their epic action-shots that define the sports realm. From glaring lights creating an intriguing display to bloopers frozen in time, these awe-inspiring pictures continue to shadow the athletic world. Now it's time to please your eyes with the 100 most amazing sports photos ever.

This Day In History: An in-depth investigation into thekillings and rapes at a peaceful rally in Conakry, Guinea, has uncovered new evidence that the massacre and widespread sexual violence were organized and were committed largely by the elite Presidential Guard, commonly known as the red berets, Human Rights Watch said today. Following a 10-day research mission in Guinea, Human Rights Watch also found that the armed forces attempted to hide evidence of the crimes by seizing bodies from the stadium and the city's morgues and burying them in mass graves. Human Rights Watch found that members of the Presidential Guard carried out a premeditated massacre of at least 150 people on September 28, 2009. Red berets shot at opposition supporters until they ran out of bullets, then continued to kill with bayonets and knives.

Laundering by hand involves beating and scrubbing dirty cloth. It is hard work even with manufactured aids like washboards and soap to help. Clothes washer technology developed as a way to reduce the drudgery of this scrubbing and rubbing process by providing an open basin or sealed container with paddles or fingers to automatically agitate the clothing. The earliest machines were hand-operated. As electricity was not commonly available until at least 1930, some early machines were operated by a low-speed single-cylinder hit and miss gasoline engine. By the mid-1850s steam-driven commercial laundry machinery was on sale in the USA and Great Britain. Technological advances in machinery for commercial and institutional laundries proceeded faster than domestic washer design for several decades, especially in the UK. In the US there was more emphasis on developing machines for washing at home, as well as machines for the commercial laundry services which were widely used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

So the other day I was thinking about where I'd like to watch the Super Bowl this year (since, you know, it's right around the corner). And since a trip to Indianapolis is not in the budget, my thoughts turned to sports bars. But then I started to wonder—if I could watch the game at any sports bar anywhere, which would it be? So I put together this list. And I've got to be honest: I can't really say that these are without a doubt the best sports bars in America. After all, isn't the best bar always just the one at which you feel most at home? That being said, all of these places look totally awesome for one reason or another, and I will definitely keep them in mind when I go to these cities.

The Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal enjoys a pride of location on the Grand Canal in Venice. Not a mere city centre location, but, above all, an auspicious starting point for visiting Venice from the inside, from a building which is a historic part of this city. Within the hotel's magnificient walls guests will discover a rich past, an impeccable service, sumptous guest rooms equipped with upscale amenities, a gourmet restaurant serving tempting local specialities and state-of-the-art conference center.facilities for custom-tailored events.

Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome, or FCKS, is a disorder in cats, wherein kittens develop a compression of the thorax (chest/ribcage) caused by lung collapse. In mild cases, the underside of the chest becomes flattened (hence the name of the condition); in extreme cases the entire thorax is flattened, looking as if the kitten has been stepped on. The kitten will appear to go from normal to flat in the space of about 2-3 hours, and will then stabilize. Treatment is difficult to define given the number of different factors that might be involved and the wealth of anecdotal information collected by and from cat breeders. Treatments have hitherto been based on the assumption that Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome is caused by a muscular spasm, and their effectiveness is impossible to assess because some kittens will recover spontaneously without intervention.

This is a long video, and a very delicate surgery to remove a tumor – specifically a common benign neoplasm known as a colloid cyst impinging upon the brain. However, I was personally struck by the beauty of the opening shots of the surgical field – it reminded me of an abstract work of art in one of those large coffee table books. There is more than enough to keep you interested through the entire procedure, and though I am normally reluctant to watch these types of videos without a lot of fast forwarding – this one had me captivated.

The tibia, shinbone, or shankbone is the larger and stronger of the two bones in the leg below the knee in vertebrates (the other being the fibula), and connects the knee with the ankle bones. The tibia is named for the Greek aulos flute, also known as a tibia. It is commonly recognized as the strongest weight bearing bone of the body. The tibia is found next to the fibula. It is the second largest bone in the human body, the largest being the femur. The tibia articulates with the femur superiorly, the fibula laterally and with the talus inferiorly. In the male, its direction is vertical, and parallel with the bone of the opposite side. In the female, it has a slightly oblique direction downward and laterally, to compensate for the greater obliqueness of the femur.

Inexpensive temporary polyvinyl chloride pools can be bought in supermarkets and taken down after summer. They are used mostly outdoors in yards, are typically shallow, and often their sides are inflated with air to stay rigid. When finished, the water and air can be let out and this type of pool can be folded up for convenient storage. They are regarded in the swimming pool industry as "splasher" pools intended for cooling off and amusing toddlers and children, not for swimming, hence the alternate name of "kiddie" pools.

Goddamnit Woman, You Only Shoot People When They're Eatin' Supper Breakfast.

Man with 3' metal bar starts breaking windows at fast food restaurant. Police are called and respond to said fast food restaurant. As said police arrive, they see customers fleeing the restaurant, followed by said man with said 3' metal bar. Said police order said man to drop said 3' metal bar. Said man does not. Said police tazer said man with said 3' metal bar. Said man pulls out tazer barbs. Said man winds up to swing said metal bar at said police officer who deployed said tazer. Then? People with guns do what people with guns do when they're being attached by people with 3' metal bars. They shoot that muthaf*cka dead in what can only be described at the most justified shooting in the history of justified shootings. Kudos to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department!

A certain degree of curvature of the penis is considered normal, as many men are born with this benign condition, commonly referred to as congenital curvature. Peyronie's Disease is a connective tissue disorder involving the growth of fibrous plaques in the soft tissue of the penis affecting up to 10% of men. Specifically, scar tissue forms in the tunica albuginea, the thick sheath of tissue surrounding the corpora cavernosa causing pain, abnormal curvature, erectile dysfunction, indentation, loss of girth and shortening. A variety of treatments have been used, but none have been especially effective.

The Creation of Adam is a section of Michelangelo's fresco Sistine Chapel ceiling painted circa 1511. It illustrates the Biblical story from the Book of Genesis in which God the Father breathes life into Adam, the first man. Chronologically the fourth in the series of panels depicting episodes from Genesis on the Sistine ceiling, it was among the last to be completed. God is depicted as an elderly white-bearded man wrapped in a swirling cloak while Adam, on the lower left, is completely nude. God's right arm is outstretched to impart the spark of life from his own finger into that of Adam, whose left arm is extended in a pose mirroring God's, a reminder that man is created in the image and likeness of God. Another point is that Adam's finger and God's finger are not touching. It gives the impression that God, the giver of life, is reaching out to Adam and Adam is receiving.

Polystyrene is a petroleum-based plastic made from the styrene monomer. Most people know it under the name Styrofoam, which is actually the trade name of a polystyrene foam product used for housing insulation. Polystyrene is a light-weight material, about 95% air, with very good insulation properties and is used in all types of products from cups that keep your beverages hot or cold to packaging material that keep your computers safe during shipping. The biggest environmental health concern associated with polystyrene is the danger associated with styrene, the basic building block of polystyrene. Acute health effects are generally irritation of the skin, eyes, and upper respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal effects. Styrene is classified as a possible human carcinogen by the EPA and by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).

"That is when I realized I didn't have my dog no more. I even went looking for him and everything. People are saying they wish they knew who did it and all that, but they just don't know the real story. They weren't there. All they know is what they've seen." Really? The old National Lampoon's Vacation defense? Listen, I'm all for an eye for an eye in these case. No jail time for this guy. No probation, no fines of any kind. Just chain his neck to a bumper and drag him until you've ground off between 30 and 50 percent of his skin. Then stop, unchain him, and leave him on the side of the road with no medical attention. Debt to society paid in full.

We have rules. We have a government. Most of us wear pants. We have television shows and movies, and the enviable luxury to complain about those things. Looking around, it's easy to call us civilized. But we're animals. We're dirty, dirty animals. Given the right context, we'll abandon all of society's rules and live like the crappy bastard animals we all are. Here are five of those right contexts.

Sand art is the practice of modelling sand into an artistic form, such as a sand brushing, sand sculpture, sandpainting, or sand bottles. A sand castle is a type of sand sculpture resembling a miniature building, often a castle. The two basic building ingredients, sand and water, are available in abundance on a sandy beach, so most sand play takes place there, or in a sandpit. Tidal beaches generally have sand that limits height and structure because of the shape of the sand grains. Good sand sculpture sand is somewhat dirty, having silt and clay that helps lock the irregular shaped sand grains together. Sand castles are typically made by children, simply for the fun of it, but there are also sand sculpture contests for adults that involve large, complex constructions.

Livistona chinensis, the Chinese fan palm or fountain palm, is a species of subtropical palm tree in eastern Asia. It is native to Southern Japan, Taiwan and several islands in the South China Sea. Livistona chinensis can attain heights of about 30 to 50 feet and a spread of 12 feet. The leaves are fan shaped. The palm is cultivated in the tropical and subtropical specialty plant nursery industry for use as ornamental trees in gardens and conservatories. This plant can become a weed, or in some ecosystems an invasive species - such as in Florida wetlands and on some Caribbean Islands.

Truck bedliners are coverings that protect the inner-side of a truck bed from damage and can prevent fine-grained cargo such as sand from sifting between the sides and the rear door. Such bedliners are of two types: the plastic drop-in and the permanent spray on type.

Normally, an athlete is suppose to be more concerned with the level of his or her play than the clothes in his or her closet. It used to be all about the skills and had little to do with how an athlete was dressed, until recently. Serena and Venus Williams were not the first people to wear risque outfits during a tennis match, but they were the first to push the envelope of what is allowed. They have worn everything from lingerie to skin-tight spandex on the tennis court. And why? Because they can. The women on this list have all worn clothing at one point in their careers that we all enjoyed more so than their actual play. These outfits can only be described as risque, but at the same time, sexy. Hint: keep your eyes peeled for Tanith Belbin.

Fitting rooms, or "dressing rooms", are rooms where people try on clothes, such as in a department store. The rooms are usually individual rooms in which a person tries on clothes to determine fit before making a purchase. People do not always use the fitting rooms to change, as to change implies to remove one set of clothes and put on another. Sometimes a person chooses to try on clothes over their clothes, but would still like to do this in private. Thus fitting rooms may be used for changing, or just for fitting without changing.

Sure, Blame Everything On The Goddamn Chinese.

Xerostomia is the medical term for the subjective complaint of dry mouth due to a lack of saliva. Xerostomia can cause difficulty in speech and eating. It also leads to halitosis and a dramatic rise in the number of cavities, as the protective effect of saliva's remineralizing the enamel is no longer present, and can make the mucosa and periodontal tissue of the mouth more vulnerable to infection. Heavy methamphetamine use can cause xerostomia, usually called "meth mouth" in this case; it can be worsened by methamphetamine at recreational doses causing tight clenching of the jaw, compulsive grinding of the teeth, or a repetitive 'chewing' movement as if the user were chewing, but without food in the mouth. Xerostomia is sometimes colloquially called pasties, cottonmouth, drooth, or doughmouth. Several diseases, treatments, and medications can cause xerostomia. It can also be exacerbated by smoking or drinking alcohol.

Ten years ago, Angelina Jolie redefined the role of the female action hero when she starred as Indiana Jones with huge tits Lara Croft, in what would be the beginning the of the Tombraider series. Over the next decade, several other very attractive actresses would add their names to the list of list of uber hot heroines, some goddamn Chinese ones even doing so in real life. And now who is the most recent to throw her hat into the action star ring? That's right, jug-jiggling Gina Carano in Haywire. Here are a bunch of promotional stills from the movie set, and in case you can't bring yourself to actually pay money to see it, here's the plot outlined in the movie's Wikipedia entry.

Coffee cup sleeves, also known as coffee sleeves, coffee clutches, hot cup jackets and cup holders, are roughly cylindrical sleeves that fit tightly over handle-less paper coffee cups to insulate the drinker's hands from hot coffee. Coffee sleeves are typically made of textured paperboard, but can be found made of other materials. Coffee sleeves allow coffee houses, fast food restaurants, and other coffee sellers to avoid double-cupping, the practice of using two (or more) nested paper cups for a single hot beverage. Most paper cup holders carry advertisements. The coffee sleeve was invented and patented by Jay Sorensen in 1993, under the trademarked name Java Jackets, and are now common fixtures in coffee houses that use disposable paper cups, like Starbucks.

Terrycloth, terry cloth, terry towelling, terry, or simply towelling is a fabric with loops that can absorb large amounts of water. It can be manufactured by weaving or knitting, with weaving on a dobby loom the predominant commercial method, having two beams of longitudinal warp through which the filler or weft is fired laterally. It is the length of loops that determine how much fluid is absorbed by the cloth as longer loops provide more surface area to absorb and come in contact with the fluid. Items that may be made from terrycloth include reusable diapers, towels and bathrobes, bedlinen, and sweatbands for the wrist or head. Terrycloth is also sometimes used to make sweat jackets.

Anheuser-Busch, a wholly owned subsidiary of Anheuser-Busch InBev, is the largest brewing company in the United States, with a market share of 49.2%. The company operates 12 breweries in the United States and nearly 20 in other countries. Brands include Budweiser, Busch, Michelob, Bud Light, and Natural Light. Busch Beer, a 4.7% abv economy brand pale lager was introduced in 1955 as Busch Bavarian Beer; the brand name was changed in 1979 to Busch Beer. Other beers marketed under the Busch brand name are Busch Light, a 4.1% pale lager introduced in 1989, Busch Ice, a 5.9% ice beer introduced in 1995, and Busch NA. Ingredients are a mix of American-grown and imported hops and a combination of malt and corn.

Sometimes, the more blatantly intelligence-insulting an idea is, the better it works. Perhaps nowhere is this as true as within the world of advertising, where the dumbest ideas can bring fame and fortune, to the point where it seems that the ad companies flat out don't give a shit about anything anymore. The good news is that you don't need to be a snazzy ad executive to get your piece of that sweet, sweet money cake. Hell, you don't even need to work. Just ask Jason Sadler, who decided in 2009 to see if companies would pay him money to wear their T-shirts as a human billboard of sorts. He set up a website, came up with seemingly arbitrary face-value pricing for his "services" (the first day of the year costs $1, January 2 costs $2, and so forth) and set to "work." Literally the only thing he had to do was to put on a shirt when he woke up. Sadler made $83,000 in his first year. This prompted him to double the prices for 2010 -- which sold out as well, bringing in a quadruple income.

Combat boots are military boots designed to be worn by soldiers during actual combat or combat training as opposed to during parades and other ceremonial duties. Modern combat boots are designed to provide a combination of grip, ankle stability, and foot protection suitable to a rugged environment. They are traditionally made of hardened, sometimes waterproofed leather. Today, many combat boots incorporate many technologies originating in civilian hiking boots, such as Gore-Tex nylon side panels, which improve ventilation and comfort. Combat boots are also popular as fashion clothing in the goth, punk, grunge, heavy metal, industrial, skinhead, and BDSM subcultures; however, they are becoming more and more mainstream.

No, you weren't the only one who Googled that smoking hot NBA cheerleader Brittany Kerr from "American Idol" this week -- thousands of other people did too ... and TMZ has learned, the massive surge in traffic crashed her manager's website. In case you missed Wednesday's episode, the smokeshow's a cheerleader for the Charlotte Bobcats. J.Lo wasn't that impressed with her audition, but Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson eagerly handed the girl a ticket to Hollywood.

A bath pillow is plastic blow-up pillow covered in a terry material. It has suction cups on the back of it to put on the back of the tub. So you can lean back onto your bath pillow, put cucumber slices on your eyes and relax.
