I think you can blame the Argentinian FA, shit managers and a lack of top defenders on Argentina's underperformance more than you can Messi. Also, I'm increasingly convinced you need to have a world class keeper to win an international tournament these days. See Casillas, Buffon, and this summer Hart!


It's not that long since Dida and Nikopolidis were major international trophy winners (2002 and 2004 respectively). Neither were anywhere near the same league as Casillas or Buffon. It's difficult to say how much credit Casillas warrants because the whole Spain team is so damn good it's difficult to pick out the most influential individual.

I don't fucking believe it - Einstein was only 26 when he came up with the theory of relativity. I'll just add that to my list of reasons to die.


Or how about that by age 26 Beethoven was deaf and wrote most of his 'hits' without ever hearing them. That's another kick in the guts to us mortals.

A Thousand Dildos For The Military Wives
A porn company says it can bring military families together with Internet-based sex toys.

LAS VEGAS—RealTouch wants to bring teledildonics to Afghanistan. Company manager Scott Rinaldo, appearing at a CES party sponsored by porn firm Pink Visual, said he's working on distributing "a thousand dildos for the military wives"—in this case, Internet-connected sex toys that can let families thousands of miles apart get intimate.

I'm not sure if he's being skeezy or sweet here. Let me start with the technology. RealTouch is a slightly terrifying, synthetic orifice that lives in a plastic tube and connects to a computer. Based on data from an Internet connection, the unit warms up, lubes up, pulses and grips any item stuck into it. On the other end of a connection, a "performer"—who could be a paid "cam girl," or the aforementioned military wife—hand-operates a sensor-covered rod to run the motors in the RealTouch.

I really hope I didn't just freak out anyone reading this story.

Rinaldo's core audience, at least so far, is men who buy his device to sync it with porn videos in the privacy of their own homes. But Rinaldo sees a genuine social benefit in his tech, so he said he's trying to get in touch with the U.S. military to have RealTouch approved as a method for a sort of virtual conjugal visit. (Presumably, female soldiers could operate the rod while deployed and send the main unit home.) Given the lack of privacy on military bases, I'm not sure how that would work, exactly. But it's a thought.

RealTouch is the latest stab at teledildonics, the science of remote-controlled sex. The term was coined in 1975 by a science-fiction author, according to Wikipedia. The gadget's appearance here at CES was part of a sex-tech party organized by Pink Visual, a porn company which specializes in technology-forward content delivery.

As an intrepid reporter, I stuck my finger into a RealTouch unit while performer Kirsten Price hand-rubbed a nearby, Internet-connected dildo. The sensation was very strange; what felt like a whirring, rotating, feathery object made of a moist latex-like material was almost polishing my finger. Afterwards, my finger smelled like lube. I'm not going to judge.

RealTouch is currently available for $249.



elast they were't using that in mcdonalds...

Preston players are fuming after four stars were axed in a rambling late night text by new boss Graham Westley.

North End's new chief sent the line-up for Saturday's 2-0 home defeat by Leyton Orient in a group text to his players at 2am.

He started the message by apologising for delivering the news so late, claiming it had taken him a long time to add all the players numbers to his phone's address book.

And after reading on, experienced stars David Gray and Barry Nicholson as well as kids Adam Barton and Harry Bunn discovered they had all been dropped despite featuring in a 3-2 victory over Wycombe a week earlier.

A source close to the players said: 'It is unbelievable that the manager thought it was a good idea to deliver bad news like this in a text that arrived in the middle of the night.
'The fact it was just one of several texts made it even worse. You would have thought the manager would have wanted his players to get a good night's sleep in before a game.'

Westley's texts for his first game in charge also detailed the tactics for the Orient match and added some motivational talk.

One of the messages was over 150 words long and another offered up the info his door is always open for a chat. Several players may be taking him up on that offer this week.

Westley has managed to talk midfielder Paul Coutts out of putting in a transfer request. However, the 23-year-old remains unhappy and is eager to leave the club



Get him back FFS!
