I LOVE #Toronto!! Just another day for #IronMan #Thor and #CaptainAmerica haha. #Superheroes!! (Taken with instagram)
The lottery is such an exciting thing, I’m so glad someone created it!
Imagine going to bed one night just a regular person with a regular job and a regular life, and waking up the next morning being able to do whatever you want for the rest of your life without ever once thinking about money. For only $5 we can have the chance to dream of what could be if we didn’t have constraints. We could travel the world, build schools in Africa, have lunch in Paris. Decorate you apartment like Christmas for an entire year, fund a soup kitchen for a decade, and spend the weekend in the underwater hotel in Fiji.
Lately I have found myself interested in how I would decorate my dream bathroom, and these pics are some of my favs I’ve found. Here in Canada our contest is called LottoMax and the prize is capped at $50 million, so naturally I have created a folder entitled “$50 Million Dollar Dreams” and I use it to collect photo’s of things or stories I would like to have or do. A close friend of mine thinks that’s a little weird, but I say hey, one of the best parts of being human is the ability to imagine. To dream of what might be, to always keep us looking forward and ahead.

So anyone who knows me knows that I am absolutely the Ice Queen.
Romance creeps me out, and the idea of waking up next to the same person for the rest of my life makes me want to swallow cyanide. Really, I’m worse with this stuff than any man could ever be. However, even ice can melt once in a while, and while by nature I’m generally distrustful of the male species, the amount of planning and effort and thought Isaac Lamb put into this proposal is unreal. It just makes me feel all warm and human inside (nothing a few Rev’s can’t take care of).
So he basically wrote a short play for his fiancee and came up with what will no doubt be the schtick for their new reality show (seriously, TLC, are you watching this)? He had his brother sit her down in the back of a car facing the rear, and put on headphones to listen to a song. As the car slowly drives down the road with her in it, a series of hilarious events ensue, all brilliantly acted out and sung by the dude’s friends and family to the tune of “Marry You” by Bruno Mars.
Guys, I don’t reccommend you show this to your ladies unless you are prepared with some kind of proposal on the moon.
Now watch the best thing you’ll see this weekend!

Okay,
So I was supposed to start my cleanse this weekend, but as I went into Metro to buy my lemons, cayenne pepper, etc, I saw this just sitting on the shelf. Not really just sitting tho, more like singing and dancing erotically. Of course, I chocked this up to another hallucination likely brought on by an acid flashback from the 90s, however I reached out none the less to prove myself right, when my fingers met the cold and forbidden sensation of the plastic prison of delicilousness. The rest dear Assashins, is about to go in my mouth and become history.
Haha, Did you think I sounded like @CourtneyStodden there for a minute? I didn’t mean it that way but it just kinda came out :P
With a creamcheese frosting ribbon?? omg I’ve been waiting for this redvelvet icecream my entire life!! ff (Taken with instagram)

I truly believe that when the next generation grows up, they won’t even know the words “personal responsibility”, and this story is a perfect example of why.
So this woman gets sent on a business trip by her company. She meets a gentleman while she’s there and brings him back to her hotel room and they have sex. Meh, she’s an adult, sex is legal, good for her right? Except that her and her gentleman friend get a little too, um, enthusiastic and the resulting motions cause a light to fall from the ceiling, injuring her face. I know, take a second to laugh. I’m sure it was painful, yet should have stayed PRIVATE. I mean, I sure wouldn’t tell my boss about it. This lady however took it a step further and decided to apply for workers compensation!! Well naturally the business said that she was on her own time, not in any way working in their capacity (while on her back), and denied the claim. So she sued, and as is typical of courts these days, they undermine a rather reasonable situation by making an absurd judgement that in fact this lady should get her workers comp. The law officals further state that had she injured herself playing cards while in her hotel, her company STILL would be on the hook.
So the question is then, where does it end? I mean, she had consentual sex with a man on her private time (i’ll guaruntee if the injury hadn’t happened and her boss asked about the sex she would certainly not consider it any of his business about her private affairs). What if she went out and picked up a rapist and was subsequently pulled into an ally and assulted? Company’s fault still? Or if she had been taking drugs and od’d in a nightclub, is that the company’s fault too? Of course sex is pleasant and acceptable, but none the less is a personal decision to partake in. If she had her purse stolen by a dog, or twisted her ankle on a waterslide while in this work city on her time off, is the company expected to pay for that? I feel like this decision by the courts could be disasterous. Businesses will probably start charging employees for seperate insurance on trips. People will abuse this precedent like there’s no tomorrow “i slipped getting up from making snowangels”, “I got alcohol poisoning from too much wine” the list can go on and on. Of course a company should be responsible for it’s employees while on the job, but that shouldn’t mean blanket protection during your activities which are clearly unrelated to your employment, and shouldn’t give people an unlimited license to be stupid.

ONE MAN CAN CHANGE THE WHOLE WORLD.
In 1938, Chinese diplomat Dr. Feng-Shan Ho, at great risk to his personal safety, defied his gov’t by issuing life-saving visa’s during Hitler’s occupation. His acts allowed many people to escape Austria and the atrocities committed there. A true hero who deserves recognition. Check out this inspiring story a lifetime later from the survivors he saved!

It’s been 6 weeks since #TrayvonMartin, an unarmed black 17 year old boy was gunned down by racist #GeorgeZimmerman.
We know the murderers name, his face, his home address, and the overwhelming evidence. Yet with all this, the only thing the law officials have decided on is that the case WILL NOT go to the grand jury. That’s in addition to the fact the man has not even been charged with a crime. We prosecute animal abuse with 50% of the evidence here, yet there is still not a hint of justice to this human child gunned down in cold blood while he was overheard by at least 6 witnesses screaming for help while being attacked. We have to ask ourselves what this means to society when we openly support this kind of racism. And by knowing it happened, and not getting mad, you are supporting it. Like watching a kid being abused but deciding to turn up the tv cause it’s unpleasant to listen to. Why would a neighborhood watchman in a wealthy area with no legal credentials be carrying a loaded weapon in the first place? George Zimmerman is a murderer and if he isn’t prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, then so are all of us.
Here is the link to a story about te Grand Jury
And if that’s not fucked up enough for you, here’s another link where grown white adults are attempting to use the fact the boy had a tattoo and listened to rap music as evidence he was a violent drug dealer. On a personal note, every boy I knew growing up had tattoos, listened to rap music, and often times smoked pot. And I grew up in whitey mcwhiteville. So it’s is not a black gang thing, it is a teenage boy thing. And usually they don’t get murdered for it.

New Music from #JoshuaBlackburn (@JoshuBlackburn) ft. our fav local DukeOfDance, #LukeRoss (@LukeRossMusic)!
Truly everything our super talented eurodance prodigy Luke Ross touches turns to gold. This time around we find him featured on brilliant up-and-coming Toronto producer/performer Joshua Blackburn’s red hot track “Out Of My Head”. The thing that really stands out to me is how well these guys mesh together, and the fact that they both have pop perfection voices for this style of music. Joshua commands the microphone as his superbass voice tells you in no unceratin terms that there is nothing wrong with love and that he’s not looking to be saved. Luke by contrast has a much softer voice, almost in a sense being the Ne-Yo to Joshua’s Pitbull on this track. You all have been in love with Luke’s sound since I first brought you his track #HeartAttack, and as we wait at the edge of our seat to hear more from him we continue to be so grateful to have met this destined-for-greatness artist before he becomes an international superstar! Teamed up with @JoshuBlackburn we can certainly expect more off-the-chart hits just in time for summer! Eeeekkk i can’t wait!
check out Luke Ross’s incredible single “Out of Love” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uozCG-yNhJc)

“Turnabout is Fair Play” #beauty #curves #NOH8 #model #hollywood #anorexia #obese
What a powerful image. It’s true tho, women today are very proud of their curves and voluptuous figure and have found an empowerment to show them off. While that is a wonderful thing, hate for the thin woman has grown to an all-time high. Of course anorexia is an terrible affliction requiring love and support to recover from, and yes there are Hollywood women who are too thin. But much as we have ladies claiming to be overweight from medical conditions or just natural body type, some women are just naturally small. I think this poster sums it up very well when it say “if you can call me anorexic, why can’t I call you fat”. The war on beauty will only be over when we accept that we are all beautiful in our own way, and NONE of us needs to live up to anyone else’s standards.

Not Your Grandmother’s #AQUA !
These guys have grown up! This band should be given a medal for making such awesome music centered around such ridiculous themes. Remember that awsome plastic dog that she was petting in the “Barbie Girl” video, or the space aliens in “Candyman” lol? Sure there have been lots of campy, fun artists before who have made really random songs (Afroman’s “Because I Got High, or Tommylife’s “Accordion Boy” anyone?) but only Aqua was able to make it cool to sing about Doctors and Candymen. I remember being in Jr High and getting their debut album Aquarium for my birthday and pretty much wearing out the CD pretending that I was a member of the band and dreaming of a career in Eurodance.
Aqua far surpassed anyone’s expectations and has sold more than 33 million albums worldwide, making them the most successful band in all Danish history. They also achieved what few Eurodance bands were able to do - break into mainstream radio airplay from stations that normally wouldn’t consider this genre of music. Sure dance music today is basically synonyms with the “Pop” title, but back in the 90’s Britney Spears and Backstreet Boys were about as electronic as it got for the masses. If you’re wondering why you don’t remember much of them after 2000, it’s because the band broke up in 2001 after the Euopean success of their second album which mostly failed to be recognized in North America and only reunited in 2007!
But I digress. The fact of the matter is, after all these years Aqua has reformed the original group and come back with a much more mature sound. Although staying true to their electronia roots, you can feel the grown-up vibe in the music (especially the track I posted where she asks her man why he “still fucks her like a robot”)! But like their earlier music, Aqua still has the ability to make you forget your troubles, and get off your ass to dance. The new album “Megalomania” is a collection of some of the tightest eurobeats I’ve heard in awhile and I highly recommend that you check it out.It may make you weak in the knees, but don’t worry, I hear the band is quite close with a Dr. Jones :P
Did You Know…
- Aqua originally formed wayyyyy back in 1989 under the name “Joyspeed” and was comprised of the two guys who create the music. Rene, the rapper, was added to the group in the early 90’s, and Lene, the fabulous frontwoman was recruited in ‘94.
- Their famous name was chosen one night while performing under the “Joyspeed” monikar. They were in their dressing room and saw a poster for an aquarium (that being the title of their first album).
- Lene and Rene dated each other during the groups initial success, until she left him for the keyboardist Soren whom she later married.
- All four members followed solo projects during their hiatus, with Lene and Rene releasing solo albums (see links below).
- A lawsuit filed by Mattel over the song “Barbie Girl” was thrown out in 2002, with the judge refusing Mattel’s claims that the song harmed the doll’s reputation. The judge claimed that as the song is a parody of the doll, it is legally acceptable. He also advised the parties involved “to chill”.
- Lene wrote the tracks “No Good Advice” and “Freak Me Out” for the debut album of UK supergroup Girls Aloud.
