International House of Beefcakes: Who's the Best?
Global research site OnePoll.com asked 15,000 women from 20 countries to rate the men they've slept with based on their country of origin, and the results are in: Germans were ranked the world's worst lovers because of their rankness, Brits came in second because they're "lazy," and the Swedes were deemed "too quick to finish," finishing third in this list no man wants to be on.
I like a little natural body odor on my bedmates (it beats a dude who reeks of cheap cologne), so I'm not sure this list works for everyone. But lazy and too quick?
Could a Message From Across the World Swing Your Vote?
The rest of the world may not be able to cast their vote in the upcoming presidential election, but they still have messages for US voters about how the choice will affect their families and home countries. Indie American satellite network Link TV created a mini video site called Dear American Voter that lets people from all over the globe create and send video messages to those of us who can fill a ballot.
The ploys range from sarcastic to serious and span the political spectrum.
Somebody Watching You? Peeping Toms Lurking Everywhere!
Citizens all over the world are not safe from Peeping Toms. Venice police just caught a man who had photographed the backsides of over 3,000 women, as they strolled around San Marco square. The man tailed the women wearing short skirts, carrying a bag with a camera, and filming their tails through a small hole in the bag.

OMG: It's International Nachos Day!
You'd think the self-described Queen of Nachos would just know in her gut about the following, but alas, this is how I was informed that it was International Nachos Day. A transcript of this morning's Blackberry text messages, verbatim:
CasaSugar: Do you know what today is? It is the day that nachos were supposedly invented!
What's Tackier?
As an International Male (does that mean gigolo?), you need to emphasize and upholster your man business. I've learned things perusing this catalog's startling pictures that I may never recover from. There's a push-up thong that has "padding hidden inside" that "lifts you up and out."
Très Cool! Babies Cry in Their Native Language
I've always found it fascinating that dogs "bark" in different languages. Though we say "ruff ruff" in English, that same noise is expressed as "ouah, ouah" in French. Now here's something even cooler: German researchers have started to think that babies' wails sound different depending on what language their parents speak.
Microsoft Interns Embrace Their Dorkiness
Five Microsoft interns got together to say "Bye, Bye, Bye" before leaving the company. Their choreography was certainly 'N SYNC, but someone failed to tell them that the song is so seven years ago. Something tells me they know this...
Fire the Translator: 10 Crazy Bad Translations
I've traveled to foreign countries, making locals scratch their heads when I try to speak their language, and I've also failed translation exams in college. So although I can't exactly say I have a command of foreign languages, I know a so-awful-it's-awesome translation when I see one. So without further ado, let's end International Translation Day with a bang!
Do Tell: What Language Do You Wish You Could Speak?
I'm always very impressed by people who can speak multiple languages fluently. In my battle to learn French, which started in high school, I've often felt like Joey from Friends, who struggles to learn French for an acting part. In that episode, which I've posted for you here, Joey tries his best, but can't do better than speaking French-sounding gibberish.
