Denis Kang Finally Signs with UFC

noreply@blogger.com (Johnny Numba 5) — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 19:31:00 +0000

One of my favorite fighter Denis Kang (kt213 interview) has finally signed with UFC to showcase his talents to the American audience. He signed a four fight deal and I can't wait for him to blow up in the US market.

He's a middle weight and he's already talking about a potential match-up with Anderson "Spider" Silva, arguably the best fighter in the world pound for pound.

Denis' dad is Korean, and his mom is french (way to go dad you stud!). In Montreal he trains regularly with GSP for strength and conditioning (see video below).

Little politics here....UFC has always insisted that their fighters sign an exclusive deal with the organization, meaning they can't moonlight their way between different mma organizations. This is one of the biggest problems with getting Fedor to fight in the UFC, because even though the other parties involved are OK with Fedor fighting in different organizations, UFC wants him for themselves, and themselves only.

With Denis' situation, he was under contract with Spirit MC, a South Korean MMA organization. But Spirit MC is so supportive of their fighters and want them to gain more exposure, so they're letting UFC have full exclusive rights to Denis Kang.

Anyways, oooohhhhh the excitement~!! I can't wait to watch him perform in the Octagon.

Perry Mann's Exotic Erotic Ball '08

noreply@blogger.com (Industry) — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 17:45:00 +0000

This past Saturday, I had the opportunity to go to one of the most “interesting” events in a very long time. Perry Mann’s Exotic Erotic Ball & Expo is a yearly event that is held in the San Francisco Bay area. It consists of an adult expo (Friday & Saturday) and is finished off by a costume ball, but clothing was definitely optional! This year the festivities were held at Treasure Island; not the Las Vegas Casino but rather the island in the middle of S.F. Bay. But enough geography, let’s get into the pornography!

The expo itself is like a smaller homegrown version of the AVN in Vegas. Various vendors showcased their wares and whores. I keeeed, but many AV vixen were present to sign their products and some were even gracious enough to show their “assets” as long as the shot taken was a great one. Tits for tat. This year, they had a large contingent of Asian entertainers from asiandivas.com. This was definitely the busiest and the largest booth at the expo. As you can see in a few of the shots, the whole area was buzzing and lit up with all the camera flashes going off. It was kind of like an import car show, but without cars and clothes. On the other side of the beehive, there was a section labeled “Erotic art gallery.” This section included images and painting of… you guessed it, erotic arts. The photographers showcased had work that was very tastful and none of the works presented were at all “smut.” There was even one painter who used his junk to paint the portraits. I didn’t think much of it until I saw him at work painting a full color portrait of a couple in only about 30 minutes! Pretty impressive. The rest of the rows were filled with booths selling DVDs, toys, and apparatus. Every aisle did have at least one stripper pole with a lovely lady hanging off of it.

Once the sun set, the ball started and the freaks came out at night. Three large tents included a main stage for the performers, a DJ spinning various types of electronica throughout the night, and a VIP section that included performers acting out various themes. There was even a bondage area that partygoers and participate in. This was the most popular area with people waiting probably around an hour to get their turn. There were many elaborate costumes, some of which were downright funny. One of my favorite was a guy with big plush magnet around his neck with a bunch of little rubber chicks on the end of it. Others opted to go the natural route by wearing nothing at all except some body paint. Eye-candy was present in all ethnicities and sizes, but it was almost as many peeps that may need to reconsider their outfits or grubbery. Tone-loc was scheduled to perform later in the night but unfortunately I left before his set. I did run into Danny Bonaduce and he was gracious enough to strike a pose with his arm candy. The bars were busy and the bouquet of boodah was strong all night. Why didn’t I stay longer? Well, this old man got tired from lugging around 40lbs. of camera gear for 6 hours and, I had work the next morning. Next year will be different. I will make sure to be there as a partygoer.

Enjoy the pix.

Activison's Ex is Now Playboy's Miss November

noreply@blogger.com (Bad Astronaut) — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:59:00 +0000

It’s easy to empathize, because we’ve all been there, or close. You have your 9 to 5 job, it’s a good gig, the work’s interesting. Then an amazing once-in-a-lifetime opportunity comes along and you have to sneak out to chase it. Grace Kim, as Activision’s PR lead for Guitar Hero, was in that spot a year ago in October 2007.
“I was giving so many excuses,” Grace said, “I even went to CVS and bought crutches, and pretended I had a fractured ankle. At this point, Activision was getting annoyed. They were really heavily promoting Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, and Guitar Hero for the DS. My boss was getting really upset.”

Finally, on the fifth straight day away from the office, she couldn’t think up any more alibis. So she quit, but she couldn’t tell Activision why.

She was in front of a camera, taking off all of her clothes for Playboy, becoming Miss November, 2008.

“It was difficult for me to come home from the shoot and then write a bunch of press releases for Guitar Hero,” she said. “I couldn’t tell them I was going to be in Playboy. At that point, I didn’t want anybody to know at the time. I hadn’t told anybody, not my parents or my friends or anyone.” (more at Kotaku)

Halloween Costume 2008

noreply@blogger.com (Johnny Numba 5) — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 22:05:00 +0000

Ahhh yes...it's that time again...what to be, what to be? In 2005 I was the Hulkster. In 2007 I was "Dick-in-the-box", a character made famous by Justin Timberlake on SNL.

But this year, I have no clue what I'm gonna be....ahhhh the pressure, and Halloween is only a few days away!!!!

One thing for sure though, I think the best costumes are ones you assemble yourself, or at least where you purchase different parts and make it your own, know what I mean?

I did google around and came across some funny/stupid/amusing ones...

Black Shanghai Gangster - I LOL'ed on this one cuz of the title...I didn't know this is what "Black Shanghai Gangsters" look like...

Snake Charmer - nothing subtle about this one is there?

Optimus Prime (Transformers) - um........no. Please don't.

Bodybag - This one's kinda eerie...but how the fuck am I suppose to get my drinks with this thing?

Sigh....what to do what to do.......any suggestions????

Referee Tackles Quarterback in Official Game!!!

daniel@ktown213.com (Dirty D) — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:47:00 +0000

When I saw this, I thought it was that commercial where the ref tackles the Quarterback for a free bud light (video below). Here's the official response from the SEC:

But the SEC office believes Hackett was protecting himself and plans to take no disciplinary action on the veteran official. Rogers Redding, the conference's coordinator of football officials, reviewed the tape of the play and thought it was inadvertent contact.

"Garcia changes his direction just a tad, which ties up the umpire just a tad and makes it look a lot worse than it really was," SEC spokesman Charles Bloom said.

And here's the funny thing, the referee just so happens to be a former Parade High School All-American and a three-year starter at linebacker for Kentucky in the late '60s.

DANNY CHO'S First DVD is OUT!

noreply@blogger.com (Industry) — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 21:43:00 +0000

For those of you unfamiliar with this talented comedian, here is a little something about Danny:

Danny Cho is an unapologetic comedian who rants about unusual events from his life. He went to school as the only Asian American in East Los Angeles. He recited the Pledge of Allegiance in Spanish. His Chinese best friend's closet smells like moth balls. He even dealt with sexual molestation on a recent sky diving trip.

Two years ago, Danny was just another business consultant stuck in a nine-to-five job, spending his time figuring out how he can miss work and then playing up the different scenarios in his mind. He came up with two solutions. Either get drunk and swerve the lanes of Beverly Hills in front of a cop, get arrested and miss a couple days of work or quit and become a comedian. He chose the latter.
While attending UCLA, Danny started performing stand-up at countless numbers of colleges as well as Kollaboration, the biggest Asian American talent show in the nation. Through the power of Youtube, Danny soon became a star among the Asian American community, and soon thereafter, landed the role of Pongo, the fat, mute Thai movie critic on Mad TV alongside Bobby Lee. Next up was a call from Hollywood, landing Danny a role on the Superbowl's Bud Light commercial and also a NFL Network commercial.

In Watch Your Step, Danny dives into a variety of topics like race, relationships, sex, and various anecdotes that may you cringe but you can't help but laugh.

noreply@blogger.com (Industry) — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 23:00:00 +0000

Formula DRIFT Round 7: Final Fight;
History is Made With Vaughn Gittin Taking His First Formula DRIFT Victory and Tanner Foust Repeats as First Ever Back to Back Champion

Long Beach, Calif. – October 11, 2008 – The Formula DRIFT Championship presented by Circuit City entered the Toyota Speedway at Irwindale for Round 7: “Final Fight”.

Thanks to all my fans and sponsors for supporting me,” said Vaughn Gittin, Jr., Formula DRIFT Round 7: Final Fight winner. “We are coming out swinging with a 2010 Falken Tire / Ford Mustang for the 2009 season.

“We started 2008 with a 2-year old car and with the help of Rockstar we made it strong enough to keep up with the competition,” said 2-time Formula DRIFT champion Tanner Foust. “Honestly I can hardly believe that I am part of Formula DRIFT history and it is an amazing honor.

The Toyota Speedway at Irwindale, also known as the “House of Drift”, played host to an energetic sell-out crowd that also witnessed Rhys Millen and his Red Bull Pontiac Solstice, take home a second Tires.com Triple Crown bonus prize of $10,000, a custom Fender guitar, and a hand blown glass trophy. Millen watched from the sidelines as he barely edged out Michihiro Takatori by 4 points for the victory.

McCain Forced To Defend Obama

noreply@blogger.com (Bad Astronaut) — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 21:22:00 +0000

Here's a side of John McCain his campaign has been missing...but it's sad that a majority of McCain supporters are like that lady and just as stupid.

If McCain had picked a more serious VP and used a different campaign strategy...I'd at least be lukewarm towards him.

Barack Gaffes

daniel@ktown213.com (Dirty D) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 19:05:00 +0000

Barack Gaffes
The Obama machine.

By Michelle Malkin

All it takes is one gaffe to taint a Republican for life. The political establishment never let Dan Quayle live down his fateful misspelling of “potatoe.” The New York Times distorted and misreported the first President Bush’s questions about new scanner technology at a grocers’ convention to brand him permanently as out of touch.

But what about Barack Obama? The guy’s a perpetual gaffe machine. Let us count the ways, large and small, that his tongue has betrayed him throughout the campaign:

Last May, he claimed that tornadoes in Kansas killed a whopping 10,000 people: “In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died — an entire town destroyed.” The actual death toll: 12.

Earlier this month in Oregon, he redrew the map of the United States: “Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”

Last week, in front of a roaring Sioux Falls, S.D., audience, Obama exulted: “Thank you, Sioux City. ... I said it wrong. I’ve been in Iowa for too long. I’m sorry.”

Explaining last week why he was trailing Hillary Clinton in Kentucky, Obama again botched basic geography: “Sen. Clinton, I think, is much better known, coming from a nearby state of Arkansas. So it’s not surprising that she would have an advantage in some of those states in the middle.” On what map is Arkansas closer to Kentucky than Illinois?

Obama has as much trouble with numbers as he has with maps. Last March, on the anniversary of the Bloody Sunday march in Selma, Ala., he claimed his parents united as a direct result of the civil rights movement: “There was something stirring across the country because of what happened in Selma, Ala., because some folks are willing to march across a bridge. So they got together and Barack Obama Jr. was born.”

Obama was born in 1961. The Selma march took place in 1965. His spokesman, Bill Burton, later explained that Obama was “speaking metaphorically about the civil-rights movement as a whole.”

Earlier this month in Cape Girardeau, Mo., Obama showed off his knowledge of the war in Afghanistan by homing in on a lack of translators: “We only have a certain number of them, and if they are all in Iraq, then it’s harder for us to use them in Afghanistan.” The real reason it’s “harder for us to use them” in Afghanistan: Iraqis speak Arabic or Kurdish. The Afghanis speak Pashto, Farsi, or other non-Arabic languages.

Over the weekend in Oregon, Obama pleaded ignorance of the decades-old, multibillion-dollar massive Hanford nuclear-waste cleanup: “Here’s something that you will rarely hear from a politician, and that is that I’m not familiar with the Hanford, uuuuhh, site, so I don’t know exactly what’s going on there. (Applause.) Now, having said that, I promise you I’ll learn about it by the time I leave here on the ride back to the airport.”

I assume on that ride, a staffer reminded him that he’s voted on at least one defense-authorization bill that addressed the “costs, schedules, and technical issues” dealing with the nation’s most contaminated nuclear-waste site.

Last March, the Chicago Tribune reported this little-noticed nugget about a fake autobiographical detail in Obama’s Dreams from My Father: “Then, there’s the copy of Life magazine that Obama presents as his racial awakening at age 9. In it, he wrote, was an article and two accompanying photographs of an African-American man physically and mentally scarred by his efforts to lighten his skin. In fact, the Life article and the photographs don’t exist, say the magazine’s own historians.”

And in perhaps the most seriously troubling set of gaffes of them all, Obama told a Portland crowd over the weekend that Iran doesn’t “pose a serious threat to us” — cluelessly arguing that “tiny countries” with small defense budgets can’t do us harm — and then promptly flip-flopped the next day, claiming, “I’ve made it clear for years that the threat from Iran is grave.”

Barack Obama — promoted by the Left and the media as an all-knowing, articulate, transcendent Messiah — is a walking, talking gaffe machine. How many more passes does he get? How many more can we afford?

It is human nature to mess up what you say...lets focus on what you do.

McCain tries to hide behind another....

....skirt...and still comes off as an idiot.

But hiding the facts is the Republican way...which is why we have over 4k US soldiers dead over an illegal war with no WMA.
