A report from the Telegraph reveals that Caster Semenya, winner of the recent World Championships WOMENS 800m Gold, is in fact a hermaphrodite. The reports, which probably should not have been made public, have embarassed her and her family. The reports state that she does not have a womb or ovaries, but has testes internally, and also elevated testosterone, three times that of the average woman.

Judging by her Manly physique and ultra-muscular frame, its not really a surprise. This is kind of like China’s underage Gymnasts in the Beijing Olympics… in a few years from now, these types of grey-areas will be difficult to see.

A moment of silence for those that died on 9/11/2001, eight years ago.

This morning I went to access my paypal, and noticed when I visited paypal.com, I got a “page could not be found” error. That’s a bit weird… a big huge site like Paypal, which carries tons of secure data and has a lot of people that need to use it ASAP, is rarely down. So then I decided to type in www.paypal.com… adding the www in front of the address… and to my surprise, a COMPLETELY different site came up!! MyStoreMaps.com! Did MyStoreMaps.com just hijack Paypal’s site? Quite possibly. This is not only disturbing, but inconvenient as I had to make a payment for something. I wonder how they will explain this one.

Maybe like other bullshits that the company pulls like the Mysterious Skype Withdrawals, Paypal will just brush all this under the rug, and hope no one notices. It surely seems to be their method of operation. Paypal is and will always have that tarnished reputation of hiding things and being dishonsest with their users. The only reason why everyone uses them is because of convenience and because of ebay. Once GoogleBay comes out, they will have to watch out.

Yet another robbery at an Oakridge jewelry store. This time the thieves hit Cellini Jewelers, and was at gunpoint. Police have not revealed the amount of jewelry and watches taken, and no shots were fired. The robbery took place this morning not long after the mall opened for business.

So apparently the World Wildlife Federation (WWF) decided to capitalize on this fact for their latest Advertisement. The Photo shows the twin towers with a shitload of jets flying towards them, as if they were going to crash into them.

Now, for most Americans, this would be considered tasteless and minimizing of their losses – that much is obvious. Now, I wonder if this ad makes non-Americans feel the same way?

While I feel 9/11 was a huge loss and a sad day, I don’t feel feel the deep animosity and anger that I’m sure others feel at the sight of this ad.
