POPSSacha Baron Cohen Ejected For Milan Fashionista Hijinks The New York Post reports Cohen tried to get into the Versace show by aligning himself with Marie Claire editor Joanna Coles, who denied any affiliation with him. The Italian Chamber of Fashion didn't like Cohen's shenanigans one bit and promptly sent out a press release to designers showing in Milan suggesting they not allow production companies Cohen's probably working with access to their shows. But security and that fancy press release couldn't stop Cohen. The photo you see here is of the prankster today on the runway of Agatha Ruiz De La Prada's show with a security guard chasing after him.

POPSPalin: The Anti-Feminist The essence of Sarah Palin's appeal is her ability to succeed while rejecting the liberal feminism that the media elites have always extolled as the only path to personal fulfillment and political power.

POPS“So Sambo beat the bitch!” Racial and ethnic slurs may be “just Alaska” and, clearly, they are common, everyday chatter for Palin. Besides insulting Obama with a Step-N’-Fetch-It, “darkie musical” swipe, people who know her say she refers regularly to Alaska’s Aboriginal people as “Arctic Arabs” – how efficient, lumping two apparently undesirable groups into one ugly description – as well as the more colourful “mukluks” along with the totally unimaginative “fucking Eskimos,” according to a number of Alaskans and Wasillians interviewed for this article. But being openly racist is only the tip of the Palin iceberg. According to Alaskans interviewed for this article, she is also vindictive and mean. We’re talking Rove mean and Nixon vindictive...

POPSPalin is "Racist, Sexist, Vindictive , and Mean"
No wonder the vast sea of white, cheering faces at the Republican Convention went wild for Sarah: They adore the type, it’s in their genetic code. So much for McCain’s pledge of a “high road” campaign; Palin is incapable of being part of one. * Calendar * Economic Equality * Elections * Environment * Local Focus * Social Justice * Survey Results * War & Peace Browse > Home / Elections / Alaskans Speak (In A Frightened Whisper): Palin Is “Racist, Sexist, Vindictive, And Mean” Alaskans Speak (In A Frightened Whisper): Palin Is “Racist, Sexist, Vindictive, And Mean” September 5, 2008 sarah_palin_2.jpgby Charley James – “So Sambo beat the bitch!” This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination.

POPSHow to Hitchhike Across the Globe Without Leaving Your Living Room The 360° World Atlas DVD lets anyone with a computer become a virtual hitchhiker, no packing or neck-craning required. Creator Everen Brown does all the hard work for you. He jets around the globe, lugging a 40-pound bag full of 600 rolls of film past airport security, and picks a picture-worthy spot. Then he takes one of the world’s last Globuscope rotational cameras (no longer in production), holds it over his head (sometimes he lies on his stomach), and waits (sometimes for hours) for the right shot. When he sees it, snapping the picture takes only a second. The lens rotates full circle, so you get to see what’s across from the Taj Mahal’s minarets too. Once Brown develops the film, he embeds the images into an interactive atlas ($69.95, www.360atlas.com) that shows off head-turning views, panorama style.
