For when you want less fur, but not no fur.

The Mudage Jolie Body Hair Thinner ($33)

…is a handy device for men who don’t want to scare girls away with their chest rug, but are reluctant to dispense with their body hair altogether! Simply pass it through your hairier areas to thin them down to a manageable amount.

Mind you don’t accidentally whip off a nipple.

From RTE:

Medical notes by the consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist that treated Savita Halappanavar indicate that she made a request for the termination of her pregnancy.
It is the first official confirmation of the request since the case became public three months ago and comes before the inquest into her death opens in Galway tomorrow.
…The notes also indicate that it was not possible to comply with the request.

 

Medical Notes Indicate Savita Halappanavar Made A Request For A Termination (RTE)


The director of PS Network game Datura has released a video teaser for his mad-as-a bottle-of-chips new project:

Catzilla was described to Eurogamer by Datura director Michal “Bonzaj” Staniszewski as “an exercise before future challenges”. It’s a benchmark designed to check your computer’s graphics capabilities that doubles as an animated short. That features giant cats who shoot lasers out of their eyes. With dubstep.

Staniszewski, who works with the Polish demoscene group Plastic, told us the video has “spread widely without anyone noticing it’s a PC benchmark”.

You can download the Catzilla beta (released earlier this month) here.

I thought I would show you the new campaign Family & Life are rolling out. The dummies (top) I find particularly bewildering. Also, arguing in the pub about the abortion issue is always a great idea, eh?
On Saturday there will be a peaceful counter demo to the [Pro-life] “vigil” created by several groups who are bussing in people from around the country – titled “We have lives too”. All welcome.
