Japan Now Having Tit Grabbing Events And Masturbation Marathons For Charity

JAPAN ? A charity breast squeeze took place last weekend in Shinjuku, Tokyo as part of the ?Erotica will Save the World? event. Is this a typical reward for donating to charity in Japan? We go hands on? I mean? just read on for more details. ?Erotica will Save the World? is a 24-hour live-streamed fundraising event that took place last Saturday and Sunday (August 25-26). Men and women (yes, that is right) came out to enjoy two days of erotically-charged festivities: Some of the areas had stalls selling goods and DVDs, other areas had fun events such as a ?Masturbation Marathon.? We?ll leave the details of that that competition up to your imagination. The most popular attraction was the ?Breast Fundraiser?, which encouraged people to donate to charity. How did it encourage them to do that? Well, if you donate some money you are allowed to squeeze the breasts of one of ten lovely adult video actresses (known as oppai momi in Japanese ? yes, they have a phrase for it).

Here is a quick rundown of the ?Breast Fundraiser?:

1. Line up, have your ID checked (must be over 18)
2. Donate money
3. Sterilize your hands (they don?t know where they have been)
4. Squeeze breasts (up to two squeezes per hand)

Charity Breast Squeeze? Genius. Desperate dudes hand over some cold hard cash to grope some Hello Kitty Titty for a good cause. Everybody wins. No disrespect to the Orientals, but those Asian virgins woody?s were like?Jap Plays? in their pants after being around their first naked woman that didn?t have to be programmed in code to holographic form.

This needs to be done in America. Screw Breast Cancer Awareness Month and everyone wearing pink to show their support to defeating the cancer. You know what you do by wearing pink t-shirt, ribbon or bracelet? Absolutely dick. OK, maybe you donate a buck or two, but in the grand scheme of things it does nothing to amount of the gratification you feel shoving your pink shit in other peoples faces like you?re fucking Jonas Salk and just shit out the cure for Polio. You want to cure breast cancer? Take one for the team and get a charity breast squeeze going at every Magic: The Gathering tournament and store that sells Warcraft upgrades. Shit, just rent a kiosk outside of Comic Con and you will have enough money to find cures for breast cancer, AIDS and whatever Neil has within an hour. Granted, the masturbation marathons they talked about in the article probably come directly after these dudes touch their first tit, but it?s a small price to pay to beat cancer.

New DNA method tracks fish and whales in seawater

ScienceDaily (Aug. 30, 2012) ? Danish researchers at University of Copenhagen lead the way for future monitoring of marine biodiversity and resources by using DNA traces in seawater samples to keep track of fish and whales in the oceans. A half litre of seawater can contain evidence of local fish and whale faunas and combat traditional fishing methods. Their results are now published in the international scientific journal PLOS ONE.

"The new DNA-method means that we can keep better track of life beneath the surface of the oceans around the world, and better monitor and protect ocean biodiversity and resources," says PhD student Philip Francis Thomsen from the Centre for GeoGenetics, Natural History Museum of Denmark, University of Copenhagen.

Marine ecosystems worldwide are under threat with many fish species and populations suffering from human over-exploitation, which greatly impacts global biodiversity, economy and human health. Today, marine fish are largely surveyed using selective and invasive methods mostly limited to commercial species, and restricted to areas with favourable conditions.

However, researchers at Centre for GeoGenetics now lead the way for future monitoring of marine biodiversity. They have shown that seawater contains DNA from animals such as fish and whales. The species leave behind a trace of DNA that reveals their presence in the ocean based on water samples of just half a litre.

From freshwater to seawater

The development of the novel DNA monitoring approach was accomplished by PhD student Philip Francis Thomsen and Master's student Jos Kielgast from the Centre for GeoGenetics headed by Professor Eske Willerslev. In December last year, they showed that small freshwater samples contain DNA from several different threatened animals, and after having published these results they began to focus on seawater. Here it also proved possible to obtain DNA directly from the water, which originated from local species living in the area.

"We analysed seawater samples specifically for fish DNA and we were very surprised when the results started to show up on the screen. We ended up with DNA from 15 different fish species in water samples of just a half litre. We found DNA from both small and large fish, as well as both common species and rare guests. Cod, herring, eel, plaice, pilchard and many more have all left a DNA trace in the seawater," says Philip Francis Thomsen.

In the other study the researchers showed that it is also possible to obtain DNA from harbour porpoise in small water samples taken in the sea, so the approach is not only limited to fish, but can also track large marine mammals.

A new and efficient method

The study also compares the new DNA method with existing methods traditionally used for monitoring fish such as trawl and pots. Here, the DNA method proved as good as or mostly better than existing methods. Moreover, the DNA method has a big advantage that it can be performed virtually anywhere without impacting the local habitat -- it just requires a sample of water. Associate Professor and fish expert Peter Rask M?ller from the National History Museum of Denmark, who also participated in the study, is optimistic.

"The new DNA method has very interesting perspectives for monitoring marine fish. We always keep our eyes open for new methods to describe marine fish biodiversity in an efficient and standardised way. Here, I look very much forward to follow the DNA method in the future, and I think it could be very useful to employ in oceans around the world," says Peter Rask M?ller.

The researchers also see great perspectives in the method for estimating fish stocks in the future.

Top 10 Ways To Relax On Labor Day Weekend (On The Cheap ...

Most three-day holiday weekends are just made for partying, but since you?ve been, well, laboring all year-long, why not spend your Labor Day weekend relaxing or doing something for your mind, body, and spirit?not go to work on Tuesday with an ?I-partied-for-three-days-straight? hangover.

Especially constructed for bringing your cortisol levels down (ahhhh! stress!) while saving some dough (yay! cheap!), we?ve made a list of the Top Ten Ways You Can Relax On Labor Day Weekend. Some are obvious; others might require a little ingenuity but they will satisfy your urge for creativity!

10. Have A Cook-Off

Everyone will be having a barbecue, but not you, you will be having a cook-off! Is there something you are great at making? Host a throw-down! If all five of your friends claim to make the best guacamole ever, challenge them to a taste-off with family and friends as judges.

Having a throw-down is instant entertainment, it gives your friends and family a chance to taste something and vote on it (voting is always fun), and it?s a super cheap way to have a ?potluck? style shindig. All that is required is a little creativity, some supplies for your awesome dish, and a scorecard.

Tip: Encourage your ?challengers? dishes to be pre-prepared at home. Minimal cleaning!


9. Paint A Family Mural

We know. This sounds like hard work. But, if you think of it more as a creative project rather than a home decorating one, it truly is something fun and cheap to do with your family this weekend.

Buy a bunch of small cans of brightly-colored paint, some painters tape, gather together some newspaper for the floors, pick a wall you don?t mind being altered, and let your children (and yourself) go wild!

Rather than pick a theme, just have fun. Your mural will be something that you will always look back on as a great time spent with the family, so it will be a beacon of relaxation for years to come.

Tip: Don?t try to control what happens too much. Give everyone their freedom to express their true artistic side.


8. Spend A Day In Bed

Yep. That?s about it. Just lay in bed as much as you can. Drag all your books, games, and music into the bedroom. Prepare healthy, relaxing meals like veggie sandwiches and nutrient rich salads the day before so you don?t have to do anything.

Make a carafe of smoothie and brew some tea. Put on your most cuddly clothes, hide your cellphone and laptop. Just veg out, going between naptime and moments of delicious inactivity.

Tip: Don?t move. Just lie there. Your body needs it more than you think!


7. Old-Fashioned Board Or Card Games

Everyone is so attached their smartphone or computer games, video games, and electronic devices. Unless necessary, ban all electronic communication devices from the house and go old school.

Learn how to play new card games, dust off those old board games that get no attention, and make up games with weird things in your house.

Tip: Anything can be a game. Use your imagination!


6. Junk Food Movie Night

This is our favorite idea ever (mostly because it involves junk food)! We know that we get lambasted for being nation obsessed with junkfood, but many of us are constantly trying to be healthy.

Well, dash that. Choose one day this weekend, rent a bunch of cheesy films, buy the sort of junk food that would make a teenage girl?s sleepover dreams comes true (pizza! chips! licorice!) and just eat and watch bad movies until your heart?s content!

If you have kids, they will think it is the most awesome day ever. And you will have tons of fun just being childish and carefree for once.

Tip: Don?t be hard on yourself the next day! Eating pizza (every once in a while) is fun!


5. Throw A Listening Party

Have you been meaning to organize your music collection or burn all your CDs to your computer? A fun way to do that is throw a listening party. Drag out all your old music, invite over some friends with some of theirs (and their laptops), and share music back and forth.

Play songs for them that you love, make online playlists together to listen to later, have some glasses of wine and just sit back together listening to your favorite obscure jazz album.

In the end, you will get a bunch of new music and newfound appreciation for your music collection (and probably, your friends!)

Tip: If you don?t feel like ?organizing,? don?t! You aren?t supposed to work that hard on your day off!


4. Volunteer

Volunteering is not technically working, so don?t attempt to refer to our last post.? If you aren?t the kind of person who can just ?sit back and relax,? volunteering might be for you.

Giving back to the community can give you a perspective on the things you love about humanity, the things you love about yourself, and help you feel more at peace. There is nothing more relaxing than being a good person.

Tip: If you can?t find a place to volunteer this weekend, help out humanity by just being nice. And smiling. Seriously, do you know how relaxing smiling is? People will instantly treat you better which is a surefire way to take away tension.


3. Plan A Staycation In Your Town

If you can?t afford to go on a vacation, take a staycation! There are probably reasons why a tourist would come to your town. Act like a tourist for a couple days and do things that tourists would normally do?and you wouldn?t be caught dead doing on an average day.

Go see your local historical monuments and take touristy pictures. Go on a tour. Buy kitschy local souvenirs. Enjoy your city like an outsider and you might get a better perspective of it.

Tip: Walk everywhere if you can. Many tourists don?t rent cars or know their way around a town. Try to absorb your city in a different way.


2. Turn Off Your ?Devices? & Go Into Nature

Yep. Everything. No cell phone (remember 1990?), no computer, no mp3 player. Nothing. Drive yourself to a beautiful, well-maintained trail (or better yet, ride a bike!) with a paper map and a compass and start walking.

Or, go to the beach and just lounge. Whatever you do, try to remember what life was like without all these devices and social media networks to keep us constantly, sometimes annoyingly, connected with everything.

Tip: Your television counts too. Totally disconnect from everything and just sit observing life going by. It?s pretty entertaining.


1. At Home Spa Day

We?d love to get pampered at a spa every weekend, but that can get pretty impossibly expensive. Solution? Make an at home spa! Make an ice-y cold carafe of cucumber-mint water, make a couple of face masks from produce in your refrigerator, and turn your shower into a steam room.

Massage yourself or the people you love with essential oils, scrub yourself with sweet-smelling salts, listen to relaxing music, and just really treat yourself like the Queen or King that you are!

Tip: Relax don?t do it. When you want to go to it.

  • What is your favorite way to relax on the cheap?no matter what weekend it is? Let us know in the comments!
