Denise Richards Does A Striptease For A Dinosaur’s Disembodied Brain
Paris just followedtech-tastic cities like Singapore, Pittsburgh, and even Bostondown the path toward anautonomous future.Travelers crossing the River Seine between the Gare d’Austerlitz and Gare de Lyon train stations, can now make the trip for free aboard aboard one of two electric, driverless shuttles. The service sparestravelers the pain of hauling their luggage without the complication and cost of a two-minute bus or taxi ride. The shuttles, made by the French firm Easymmile, carry six passengers and a human overseer to keep an eye on things. They trundle back and forth over the Charles de Gaulle bridge in a dedicated lane, making the 800-foot jauntat about 12 mph.
Watching this thing escargot across the bridge, the words “meh” and “lame” (also “ennui”) spring to mind before “future.” But this is what the coming age of transportation looks like. Navigating the world is a terribly complex task, and thebest way to deliver truly driverless cars—no steering wheel, no pedals—is to start deploying them in tightly controlled environments wherelittle can go wrong. “The more you contain a problem, the easier it is to automate,” says Bryan Reimer, who studies autonomous vehicles at MIT. That’s why Uber is testing robo-cars indowntown Pittsburgh, and why Otto’s beer-hauling semislet the robot handle interstates while leavingsurface streets to humans. Paris’ shuttle is another example of the slow-and-easy approach, even if it’s just a step or two ahead of those driverless railway trams you seeat airports all over the world. “I would expect you’re gonna see a lot more things like this,” Reimer says. It may not be as sexy as Tesla’s Autopilot, but it’s a goodway to introduce people to how these vehicles operate. Paris plans to run the shuttles, which cost $215,000 a piece and use lidar sensing to see the world, until April 7. It will survey passengers and monitor the reliability and efficiency of the service. The city already plans to offer a similar service between the equally cozy Chateau de Vincennes and the Parc Floral. The future’s spreading faster than butter on a crpe. Related Video

Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer might not sound like a wine bar that serves low-carb tapas, but that’s because it’s not. This place has become known for their highly Instagram-able milkshakes, piled high with enough candy and sweets to put a horse into a sugar-coma. There are three staple options to choose from – Cotton Candy, Sweet and Salty, and Cookie (which comes topped with it’s own cookie ice cream sandwich, hot damn). Black Tap also offers specialty milkshakes every now and again, in flavors like Birthday Cake, Salted Caramel, and Candy Cane. For the basic betches on a budget, Black Tap has basic milkshakes for $7. Spending $15 only to hate yourself an hour later when you can’t fit into your sweatpants anymore sounds like a lot of fun, no?

And now a new book claims that gaining weight after fatherhood makes men healthier, more attractive and more likely to live longer than their skinny counterparts. The author, Richard Bribiescas, professor of anthropology and deputy provost at Yale University, claims that this is likely due in part to the decreasing testosterone levels seen in older men. He writes:
But is there actually any solid science behind the idea that lower levels of testosterone and a bit of a tummy can make men healthier? There exists a complex relationship between our body composition, the relative amounts of fat and muscle that we have, and how we age. While accurately measuring biological ageing is actually quite difficult, studies have nevertheless shown that having too much body fat can prematurely age us and that maintaining our levels of muscle mass could have the opposite effect. It is certainly true that frailty, a syndrome in which older adults carry an increased risk of poor health outcomes is increased in people who carry too much body fat. Testosterone and ageing But what about testosterone? Testosterone is a steroid hormone that in men is produced by the testes. Alongside governing male sexual characteristics, it also controls body composition, with lower levels which naturally occur as we age being associated with less muscle and more fat. It is this very change in body composition that these new claims of vitality are based upon. Beyond this, there is actually some evidence that testosterone is involved in the ageing process. The most profound evidence that testosterone can affect how we age comes from studies of people who have none: eunuchs or castrati. These men, who have had their testicles removed, outlive their non-castrated counterparts by as much as 20 years, suggesting that the levels of this hormone may have a profound effect on the ageing process. The precise reasons for this impressive effect are not very clear, but suggested mechanisms have included an increased ability to fight off infection and a reduced risk of developing prostate cancer, although the latter is a controversial link. It is unlikely the effect is related to cardiovascular health as low testosterone levels are also associated with cardiovascular risk factors and testosterone replacement therapy (TrT) has been shown to improve angina pectoris How low can you go? While having low testosterone levels might aid eunuchs in living longer, in the rest of the male population low testosterone is associated with a range of symptoms including poor cognitive function, decreased mobility, reduced sexual function, and lower energy levels, not a list of qualities that many potential partners would find attractive. But can replacing testosterone levels that have diminished with age improve these issues? Certainly, TrT has been shown to have beneficial effects on bone health, body composition and memory and testosterone has even been called the best anti-ageing drug. Taken collectively, this evidence suggests that although an absence of testosterone over the lifespan may be beneficial, the reduced levels seen in middle-aged and older men might not be such a great thing. Body mass index (BMI) and longevity One area of interest that this new book has highlighted is the observation that being overweight might be good for you, at least in terms of how long you live. Traditional opinion is that those of us who are overweight that is, have a BMI of 25 – 29.9 are unhealthy. But recent evidence suggests that people in this category might actually live longer than people who have a healthy, underweight or obese BMI, although conflicting evidence does exist. This controversial finding suggests that there may be a benefit in being slightly overweight. So while this might not support the books claim that middle-aged men with dad bods are more attractive, it is possible that pudgy dads might live a little bit longer than their more slender counterparts. Just dont give up on that healthy lifestyle. James Brown, Lecturer in Biology and Biomedical Science, Aston University This article was originally published on The Conversation.

But in addition to their ability to titillate, certain movies (especially horror) like to get real creative with how far they can stretch the definition of erotica. And while some sexual experimentation can make for a great anniversary, too much of it might just put you off having sex for the rest of your life. We’d warn you of all the nudity in this article, but it’s honestly the least inappropriate content you’re going to find compared to … 7Denise Richards Does A Striptease For A Dinosaur’s Disembodied Brain Post-Jurassic Park Hollywood tried to jam dinosaurs into just about every movie, from The Flintstones to that movie where Whoopi Goldberg was legally forced to solve crimes with a dino buddy. Then there’s Tammy And The T-Rex, an instant classic where Denise Richards plays a girl whose dead boyfriend (played by Paul Walker) has his brain transplanted into a robotic dinosaur. Why not a real dinosaur? Because that would be ridiculous.
You’d think the screenwriters would have their hands full with the whole cyborg tyrannosaurus plot, but they somehow managed to also find time to add in a whole bunch of weird sexual tension throughout the movie– like a schoolyard fight that results in a surprising amount of dick-grabbing. Scenes like the penis pinch seem out of place in Tammy And The T-Rex, which is quite the achievement if you think about it, but that’s not the movie’s fault — it’s the fault of uptight censors. You see, the movie was originally intended for mature audiences, with its violent scenes eventually cut out for the American release, such as this moment where the lovable T-Rex rips a guy’s head off.
But the weird sex stuff was totally fine for preteens, so that was left in. The very final moment of the film features a particularly baffling attempt at sexiness. After removing her boyfriend’s brain from the T-Rex, it now lives a hellish existence in a petri dish in Denise Richards’ room, wired to a camcorder that cruelly has the lens cap on while she’s out. So what does she do to satiate Paul Walker’s existential agony? In a moment that was trimmed down for the PG version, she does an elaborate striptease. It’s pretty much the closest we’ll ever get to seeing what Krang’s bachelor party would look like. And because the brain that lives on her nightstand obviously doesn’t have a penis, it reacts to arousal by ejaculating sparks all over her teddy bear, which is a fire hazard. The movie ends with Richards jumping on the bed for the really naughty stuff to happen. Of course, we don’t get to see any of that because the movie fades to black. The brain in the jar also can’t see any of that, because the bed is out of its field of vision. Brains don’t have arms, Denise, you need to move the camera for him! Or, y’know, unplug him and let him pass blessedly on into eternity. Whichever. 6Ninja Women Dispatch Enemies With Their Magic Genitals It’s a common movie trope that the femme fatale assassin uses her sexuality to eliminate her target. But Female Ninjas Magic Chronicles 3: Sacred Book of Sexual Position (not a porno) boldly asks the question, “What if female assassins literally used their genitals to kill people?” The sequel to a movie in which the Catholic Church hides treasure maps in vaginas, Female Ninjas Magic Chronicles 3 finds a gang of (not surprisingly) female ninjas seeking an ancient book of sexual positions. Along the way, they have to best a series of warriors with their feminine ninjitsu skills … which mainly involves them getting molested and then erupting vengeance from various orifices. For example, one ninja quickly transitions from sex to squirting a guy in the face with acid breast milk, like some misguided erotic version of the dilophosaurus attack in Jurassic Park. Cinefile Videos Cinefile Videos In another hectic battle, one ninja busts out the aptly named “Vagina Bubbles From Hell”– a slow-moving mass of vaginal soap suds … Cinefile Videos … And this lethal bubble bath literally kills a dude, who we can only assume went to the afterlife red with embarrassment. That’s not even the dumbest vagina-related magic power in the movie. That honor is reserved for the powerful mystic who turns her enemies’ … uh, goo, into a weapon with her vagina silly-string (from Hell).
5The Hilarious Werewolf Threesome In The Howling II Werewolves combine the worst parts of puberty: the rampant hormonal rampages and the unfortunate body hair. So, despite the Twilight saga’s most mediocre efforts, you can’t make a werewolf sexy. Case in point, The Howling II. A sequel to the werewolf classic, with a subtitle that sounds like a line from Dracula’s Friars Club roast, Howling II: … Your Sister Is A Werewolf opens with Christopher Lee. In space. Talking about werewolf boning. Don’t worry, the British accent totally sells it. After all that build-up about “beasts” and “fornications,” we finally see the Werewolf Queen’s castle, a temple of sin filled with … old people, for some reason. Apparently, the werewolf community is totally cool with senior citizens getting bussed to their Zorro-themed orgies. Three of the werewolves splinter off to a candelabra-filled bedchamber to have a threeway. Well, we say “threeway,” but it’s mostly just a whole lot of watching and not a lot of movement. For all of Christopher Lee’s ranting about the abject sin of lycanthropy, these two hairy asses are fumbling about like it’s werewolf prom night at their werewolf Catholic school. Eventually, the Werewolf Queen joins in, but seemingly goes to great effort not to physically touch the other werewolves, probably because the filmmakers didn’t want her $200 manicure getting tangled up in all that recycled pubic hair.
If there was a porn parody of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats directed by someone who had never had sex before, this is probably what it would look like: 4A Nurse Bangs An Anatomically Correct Medical Dummy In Front Of A Child Pin is a Canadian horror movie about a young man who kills people because a medical dummy told him to. In a flashback, the killer’s backstory shows that his doctor father used the anatomically correct dummy to teach his kids. He even did the voice of the dummy, just to maximize the chance of future psychic traumas. Eventually, his son starts to think the dummy is real. It doesn’t help his delusion when the kid catches a nurse using the dummy as a marital aid. What starts as some gentle petting quickly turns into a speedy run-through of years of sexual education for the peeping tom …
… Then she crushes that dummy’s ass in what the Kama Sutra calls the “Loveless Marriage Lotus.” The kid’s reaction shot says it all. With this brief but potent girl-on-medical-equipment action, we now know exactly (through shared trauma) why this child becomes a deranged killer. That’s one psychosis out of the way, but what about the nurse’s? The movie never explains what the hell is going on with her. Do the filmmakers think that this how health care providers spend their coffee breaks? Why don’t we follow her around for ninety minutes and see where that angel of death vibe may lead? Probably to a mannequin store. 3Jason Voorhees Kills A Potential Threesome In The Wackiest Way Possible We all know Jason X wasn’t exactly the strongest of the Friday The 13th movies; it has a cast of terrible actors, a spaceship set that looks like a sci-fi-themed Motel 6, and a musical score that was likely played on a toddler’s bumblebee-shaped keytar. But it did do the one thing all Friday The 13th movies are supposed to: make teens everywhere regret wanting to have sex. The movie finds a group of futuristic students on a field trip in space when the frozen body of Jason Voorhees comes to life and starts murdering people — another good reminder of why permission slips always need to be signed. At one point, the intrepid group of survivors trap Jason in what’s basically a holodeck simulation of a country resort, in a desperate attempt to slow him down with wistful nostalgia. Worried that Jason won’t simply drop his machete in favor of drinking mai tais in a deck chair, they add in some horny teenagers …
… Who immediately get naked and try to seduce a confused Jason …
Jason, even though it wasn’t on the menu, picks the murder option. He lets the naked child-supervisors get into sleeping bags and then beats one sleeping bag against the other sleeping bag … … And to neatly wrap things up, kills the other counselor with one whack of a sleeping bag to a tree. Which is both a call-back to Friday The 13th Part VII, and a handy way to save money on gore effects. But let’s go back to the holodeck for a sec. Which future pervert thought it was a great idea to program a university research vessel with the simulation of a summer camp sex fantasy that hasn’t been relevant since the late 80s? Even more disturbing, these topless gals are specifically simulations of Camp Crystal Lake counselors, a place only known in this universe as the site of a famous massacre. What we’re saying is that that sleeping bag whack-a-mole we just saw Jason do is probably the least gruesome act ever performed on that holodeck. 2Troll 2: The Goblin Queen Bangs A Dude With A Corncob (And Ejaculates Popcorn) Aside from the fact that it was technically the first Harry Potter movie, Troll 2 is most well known for being possibly the worst movie of all time. Troll 2‘s human protagonists were maybe even less believable than the puppets, so it’s not surprising that the movie’s brief dalliance with eroticism would be about as sexy as sticking your junk into a thresher just because it said it loved you. The scene in question starts with All-American boy Brent sitting in front of the TV, channel hopping, when suddenly he lands on a woman seductively caressing some corn on the cob — which is some kind of black magic, or the Green Giant commercials used to be a whole lot more fun.
The mysterious temptress then tells Brent to go outside because she’s waiting near his trailer and holy shit, all those beer commercials were right after all! What Brent doesn’t know is that she’s actually the Goblin Queen, presumably hanging out in trailer parks because she’s fed up with her husband’s baby-stealing and their unnecessarily muppet-filled house. But we can forgive him for being … distracted. They go back inside the trailer to do it, hard. But she has one condition: the corn gets to play too. Because this is all part of her evil trick, Brent’s orgasm causes an explosion of popcorn as if he’s part of Orville Redenbacher’s wet dreams … … Which then almost kills him as he drowns in his own salty, butter-soaked sex corn. Troll 2 obviously performed very badly at the box office, but this scene makes us wonder if that was merely due to the movie being terrible, or the fact that it showed audiences the most popular concession-stand food covered in sex mucus? That’s the difference between a regular bad movie and Troll 2. A regular bad movie will ruin 90 minutes of your life; Troll 2 will ruin your moviegoing experience forever. 1Faust Has The Most Disgusting Sex Scene Of All Time Faust: Love Of The Damned tells the story of an artist named John Jaspers (thus dodging the litigious wrath of famed artist Jasper Johns) who sells his soul to the devil in order to become a demon superhero and avenge his girlfriend’s death. Think Spawn, but if his mom made his costume for him. One memorably horrifying scene finds the devil (who in the movie looks like a 90-year-old woman doing her best John Malkovich impersonation) about to get it on with his girlfriend — because in the age of internet dating, there’s always the odd chance that you accidentally wind up going out with the Prince of Darkness …
… But it turns out the woman has crossed him, so as a punishment he uses his evil magic to make her boobs and butt turn gigantic, and then melt. Again, he’s the devil, so we can’t be 100 percent sure this isn’t just some weird demonic foreplay.
Eventually, the seductress is reduced to nothing but a shuddering, liquid, four-leaf clover of female sexuality. It’s a pretty fucked-up, gross scene. If David Cronenberg ever directed an episode of Red Shoe Diaries, this is probably the nightmare factory he’d produce.

Not unless you employ equal amounts of beer and gunpowder. Heres how this little-known Colombian sport works: you throw a lump of metal it looks like a squashed version of what shotputters throw down what looks like a bowling lane, aiming for a far-off sandpit. If you hit the right spot, bam! Theres a crackle of explosives, a cheer and a clink of beer bottles. I experienced my first tejo game on a trip to Bogot, after calling on Andrs Martnez, a musician with electro-cumbia band Monareta, to show me some highlights of his hometown. It turned out to be one of the best nights I have ever had in an unknown city. We jumped from the gritty tejo courts to hip record bars, via an urban beer garden, basement drinking dens and a wild drag club. I knew then the city had me under its spell. For most foreigners visiting Colombia, Bogot is typically cast as a supporting actor, rather than the countrys star. It is the capital, transport hub, and a gateway to more exotic destinations: the Caribbean coast, the wilds of the Amazon, picture-perfect Cartagena and balmy Medelln. Some overseas visitors stay in the capital only for one night. They tick off the gold museum, take a cable car to enjoy the views from the top of Mount Monserrate, and then move swiftly on. Perhaps thats fair enough. Not everyone wants to spend time in a traffic-choked, climatically challenged city of eight million people. And it must be said that, at 2,640 metres above sea level, this Andean metropolis is no stranger to fog and rain. However, for those who thrive on big cities and cultural highlights, time here is richly rewarded. By day, its fun to chain-drink tintos (small black coffees) in cafes around colonial La Candelaria and hipster-friendly Chapinero. By night, the restaurants of Zona G and the bars of Zona Rosa are the prelude to a thorough immersion in one of the coolest music scenes on the continent. Colombia has been fusing its traditional tropical sounds with cumbia rhythms and electronica for some time now, but, as Andrs told me on my recent return visit, its now reaching boiling point. Renowned for being receptive and experimental, the capital has become a testing ground for Latin musicians. If you can make your sound work here, it can be a springboard for wider things, even the coveted US market.
The thing I love about the music in Bogot is the crossovers, said Pamela Ospina, a Colombian musician who divides her time between the capital and Medelln. She also offered to show me some city hotspots. There are so many musical influences here salsa, rock, cumbia and were getting more and more overseas bands coming, she said. At the height of the countrys civil war, very few international artists visited; but things have been slowly opening up over the past decade, and the newly signed peace treaty is boosting confidence.
Pamela and I met up in Treffen (Carrera 7, 56-17), a basement bar thats an explosion of primary colours and has seats made from old train benches. At the weekends its so busy that turnstiles filter in the partygoers, but it was quiet early on a weekday, allowing us to talk over the music while sharing a plate of patacones (fried plantain).
Pamela is a creative powerhouse. She grew up in Canada after her parents emigrated, but later returned to Colombia, and now seems to be seizing every opportunity the country can offer: when she is not playing the drums or writing songs, she is a radio host and a stand-up comedian. Pamela also took me to Hippie (Calle 56, 415), a cosy restaurant that felt like someones house, both outside and in. Typical dishes included fish with chontaduro (peach palm fruit) puree, or prawns and mango viche (an unripe version of the fruit that is usually served as a savoury street food). We finished our night at nearby Salvo Patria (Calle 54a, 4-13), another success story which has moved to a bigger location to keep up with demand and, like all good hipster bars, makes its own-label craft beer.
We said our goodbyes on the pavement outside, as it started to drizzle. From T-shirt weather to torrential storms, I had experienced every season that day, in typical Bogot style. With stand-up comedy on my mind, I thought back to something Billy Connolly once said: Theres no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing. So get yourself a sexy raincoat and live a little. I cant think of anywhere better to live out that advice than Bogot. The trip was provided by Real World Holidays (0113 262 5329, realworldholidays.co.uk), which has a five-day Bogot package, including three-star accommodation, private transfers and a variety of local tours, for 550pp. Avianca (avianca.com) flies from Heathrow to Bogot from 513 return

So easy to hate. Men-only testosterone farms that seem to contribute nothing to society other than a group of lads who value themselves and their bonds above anything else. Whether theyre full of posh boys from private school (The Riot Club), a front for a drugs ring (22 Jump Street) or just a good ol fashioned place where bigotry is served alongside the kegs of beer (Dear White People), they never seem to come off that well on screen. A fraternity is definitely not where youd want to find yourself as you attempt to recover from a vicious assault thats left deep psychological scars. But thats exactly where Goat director Andrew Neel puts Brad, played by the excellent Ben Schnetzer: trying to get into a frat at the fictitious Brookman college, under the guidance of his brother Brett (Nick Jonas). The film is a pointed, astute and unflinching look at unbridled machismo and its consequences. From the opening shot a super slo-mo of a group of topless lads shouting Neel uses violence (or the threat of it) and guilt to prod and pull at the seemingly unbreakable bonds of brotherhood. When the violence does come its grotesque. When Brad is attacked you feel every punch, when the pledges are slapped, it stings. Nothing is slapstick and everything is designed to provoke disgust – and theres a lot to be disgusted with. Brad and his fellow pledges are put through the usual frat rituals, suffering indignities including non-stop verbal abuse, being showered in condiments, and the threat of intercourse with livestock. Their tormentors are a familiar bunch of heels: theres the square-jawed angry man-child; the Patrick Bateman-style Wall Street-ready sleaze; and the former fratter who just cant let go like Matthew McConaughey in Dazed & Confused played here by a scene-stealing James Franco. The odd one out is Jonass Brett, who is torn between protecting his brother and being a functioning member of the gang. The fraternity is an all-encompassing institution. Apart from a few shots of Brett studying (hes a business major), college life doesnt get a look in, and the only time students from outside the frat are present is at one of their EDM-fuelled parties. Its only when things inevitably go too far, and the wheels begin to fall off, that Brad and Brett are forced to look at life outside of their goldfish bowl. Neel has taken college drama tropes and made them nastier, darker and much more interesting.

BBC reporter Rupert Wingfield-Hayes arrived Monday evening in Beijing on a flight from Pyongyang, according to a tweet from the BBC’s Asia bureau chief, Jo Floto.
His BBC colleagues,producer Maria Byrne and cameraman Matthew Goddard, also were on the plane, the British broadcaster said.
North Korean officials detained Wingfield-Hayes, the BBC’s Tokyo correspondent, at the Pyongyang airport, questioned him for eight hours and then made him sign a statement apologizing, according to the broadcaster.
North Korean authorities said they took issue with “disrespectful” reports he filed from inside the country last week.
Complete media control
North Korea’s domestic media are completely state-owned and controlled.
North Koreans will never hear or see anything critical of the government — a huge proportion of media coverage is devoted to praising the leadership.
North Korean authorities allow limited foreign media to enter the country but are sensitive about what journalists see and how they report about it.
Foreign journalists are not allowed out of their hotels except under tight government supervision. They are not allowed to choose their itineraries and are taken almost exclusively to prestige projects where there are constant reminders to “produce good reports.”
The most serious offense, in the eyes of North Korean officials, is any insult or perceived disrespect of the man they call their “supreme leader,” Kim Jong Un.
Harsh words
In a three-hour speech to thousands of party members, Kim set a five-year plan to revive the struggling economy. But the speech included no major policy changes or economic reforms.
Kim, who has been in power since his father’s death in 2011, called for a greater focus on factory automation, mechanized agriculture and increased coal output.
He also urged greater exports of raw materials but did not address how that would be possible in the wake of heightened U.N. sanctions after this year’s purported hydrogen bomb and missile tests.

Veiny, strong hands are my weakness.Here’s a list of things I find attractive; Strong jawline, eye smile (eye smiles kill me), dimples and a bit of a goofy smile can also make my heart melt. But the thing I find most attractive appears to be hands. Jesus Christ, veiny, strong hands are my weakness. 17. Veiny forearms.Defined veiny forearms make me wet… 18. Protruding clavicles.Protruding clavicles, bony elbows & knees, and my all-time favorite is ribs that are visible from the back. 19. Good quads and calves.Good quads and calves. I am the biggest pervert in the gym when a guy with good legs is at the squat rack. 20. Pecs.Pecs. Generally I’m an upper-body person. Male legs are kinda creepy to me. 21. Strong jawline.A strong jawline makes me melt. 22. Long fingers.Long fingers and forearms that look thick and strong but not jacked or anything. I love it.

Lots of body hair.Arms for sure, and honestly, body hair. I might be in the minority here, but there’s something about it that’s rough and masculine and makes me feel more feminine. 28. Kind eyes.Eyes. My boyfriend has the kindest eyes, and that genuinely makes him more attractive to me. Eyes can tell you a lot about a person sometimes, and his are just so kind and loving. Sorry if you have crazy eyes and you’re 100% amazing/normal 29. Thick eyebrows.Thick eyebrows. 30. Beards make me sexually aggressive.Beards make me sexually aggressive. Some kind of raw animal lusta cavewoman instinct or something. So fucking sexy! Purrrrr. My husband knows if his face gets hairy he better be ready. 31. Toned arms.Toned arms.

The small of the back.Christ that’s hard….I like all bits of man…there isn’t a bit that is particularly better than the other bits; I think I find all a man’s body parts sexy if I like the man. But I think the piece of man others probably don’t immediately think of that I find very attractive is the small of the back. 34. Dad Bod.Fit-ish men in general. Or what some call the dad-bod. Fit arms/shoulders and a bit of a belly, dear lord hold me back! But to be more specific strong arms/forearms are the most attractive thing to me.

The mavericks spearheading the Beats were Jack Kerouac,William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, with the two linchpin pieces of literature being Ginsbergs free verse performance poem, Howl and Kerouacs novel, On The Road. The Beats inspired a generation of Baby Boomers in the ’50s and ’60s with prodigious prose and moving reflections that focused on making extraordinary experiences not just palpable, but possible. Their tone was intellectual, raw and emotional, giving their work and lifestyle a distinctive blaze. Generation-Y has experienced its own cultural shift in expression. First, we wantedto attain a status of pseudo-celebrity in the 2000s, particularly through social media. The rise of Facebook and other social media companies allowed your online presence to present a curated version of your reality. This has now shifted ever so slightly to a picture-heavy Instagram feed and a more earnest medium of expression via personal content. This ultimately feeds the swelling of artisan entrepreneurship. The Internet, as it goes through this second major wave of adoption, is allowing for a Beat regeneration. This era will connect like minds, while also minimizing start-up costs for bootstrapping endeavors. The champions and most noticeable forces in artisan entrepreneurship are craft breweries. They run the gamut of ubiquitous national names, as well as regional staples and hyper-local spots. Craft breweries are a huge creative output for Generation-Y, especially in conjunction with the local movement. In the craft beer world, there are almost no bounds to self-expression. Whether it’s on taps or shelves, beer names or event themes, the craft beer world has been the flagship mover of not just artisanship, but also crafty ingenuity. There is an adventurous tone to almost every brewery, and the culture surrounding craft beer is of exploration and heightened awareness. This is much like Kerouac’s preaching. Many craft breweries have been jump-started by a bevy of crowdfunding networks, each more accessible than ever before. With free and established sites like Kickstarter and GoFundMe, there is a growing community of like-minded thinkers and builders funding projects of all shapes and sizes. These sites not only increase the willingness to partake and donate to other causes and movements, but they also greatly lower the barrier to entry for personal expression. We are seeing the same exploration of the Beats through these new creative outputs in the sharing and gig economy as well. Through ride services like Lyft and Uber, as well as the rental sharing of Airbnb, were walking in the shoes of others more frequently. We are connecting people through new channels based on travel and lifestyle decisions. Instead of sterile hotels and yellow cabs, were diving into the individualized homes and cars of others, opening ourselves up to hear and experience more. This openness is a vital component to the Beat generation, and it’s being consistently cultivated through the sharing economy. These connections are pairing together the socially liberal to share goods and services, much like modern-day hitchhiking. This culture of creation and ingenuity is what Gen-Y needs to continue to burn on. If the Beat regeneration is to come to complete fruition, young people must feed the fire of entrepreneurship, burn the midnight candle and join the building movement.
