The Monster

Rule n.1
Don't show yourself naked to a mum with her kid while they are saying hallo to you from the window, or you could become: The Monster.

Just follow the link.

This has some inside-Micro-II-jokes (not that funny anyway).

You don't like 2 lesbians kissing each other? You're a gay!

Now with the dildos they created everything is phisically possible.

Ass? I don't like human ass.

Come and visit


From what I understand there's nothing legally wrong on putting this picture here as long as I say I took it from here, and I write the strange c(I have no idea how to do it) with Benjamin Fonseca e Silva, 2005.

Scientific Advices for Portuguese Noisy Guys

from Stomach Growling and Other Bodily Noises: Embarrassing, But a Sign of Health
available here (Medical Content reviewed by the Faculty of the Harvard Medical School)



Digestion Is A Noisy Process

Noises from the upper digestive tract have probably been recognized as soon as humans appeared on this planet. Some of the earliest physicians wrote scholarly treatises on bowel sounds and, naturally, doctors have applied technical terms to these:

Burping is called eructation, and describes the act of expelling air from the stomach.

Loud rumbling or gurgling from within the abdomen (often referred to as “stomach growling”) is called borborygmi and may reflect the normal actions of the stomach and intestines to propel food through the digestive tract (called peristalsis). Interestingly, the exact source of bowel sounds is uncertain, but they are thought to occur as gas moves about with or without the muscular contractions of the intestinal walls.

[...]


Noise that arises from the digestive tract is not just a fact of life, it is a sign of health. Your doctor may listen over the abdomen with a stethoscope, but it is often easy to hear noises even without one. If you have concerns about your digestive tract or the noises it makes, see your doctor for evaluation, especially if you also have abdominal pain. But don’t assume that whenever your stomach growls, it’s time to eat; doing so may do little to reduce the noise but much to increase your weight.

The wonderful and frightening world of International Economics part 7

From last year's exam:

Provide a formal model in which globalization leads to income convergence. After formally proving this result, discuss the intuition behind it.

An invitation...

... to go back to the dancefloor and annoy some locals. In Razzmatazz on the 16th of May. Yes, it's very early but it will sell out (tickets cost 18€).

Reportedly the fastest selling debut in British history at the time of its early 2006 release, the Arctic Monkeys' 'What People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' is a brash, hook filled album that immediately warrants music fans' attention, if perhaps not all of the prerelease hype. Clearly taking notes on the evolution of UK punk, the Sheffield based band reveal the influence of revered predecessors such as the Jam and the Clash, while most notably evoking the Libertines in their youthful, hood rat persona. On this hyperactive thirteen track set, singer/guitarist Alex Turner is armed with an arsenal of sharply observed middle class narratives (a la the Streets), which are propelled by wiry guitar lines and formidable rhythms that, at times, verge on funk (see Bloc Party). Highlights of this much lauded disc include the raucous 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor', the woozy 'Riot Van' (one of the record's few quieter moments), and the lurching 'When the Sun Goes Down'. Like Franz Ferdinand's scruffier (and considerably less effete) kid brothers, the Arctic Monkeys prove that the hyperbole of the UK music press occasionally has roots in an impressive reality. from regnyouth.blogspot.com
