Let’s talk about US – Let’ talk about SEX

Let’s talk about SEX. Don’t mind people who try to laugh it off, or who are too uptight and "adult" to admit they love it. Just don’t mind them. Let’s talk about US – Let’ talk about SEX.

sex in three kilometers

    1.    On any given day 400,000,000 people around the world — 1 in 17 of us — will have sexual intercourse. Broken down further, 4,000 people are having sex at any given time.

    2.    According to the Kinsey Institute, the biggest erect penis on record measures 13 inches. The smallest tops off at 1 3/4 inches.

    3.    The most common fantasy is oral sex.

    4.    8% of us have regular anal sex.

    5.    60% of men and 54% of women have had a 1-night stand.

    6.    Women buy 4 out of every 10 condoms sold.

    7.    In 1609, a doctor named Wecker found a corpse in Bologna with two penises. Since then, there have been eighty documented cases of men similarly endowed.

    8.    Men say the average erect penis is 10″. Women say it’s 4″.

    9.    A female orgasm is a powerful painkiller (because of the release of endorphins), so headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex. (see #17)

    10.    56% of men have had sex at work.

    11.    1 in 3 of us have had an extramarital affair.

    12.    62% think there is nothing wrong with affairs.

    13.    29% of us are virgins when we marry.

    14.    Given today’s average frequency of sexual intercourse, it would take the typical American couple more than four years to try every one of the 529 positions described in the Kama Sutra.

    15.   If a woman experiences orgasm during sex, she is more likely to become pregnant, since orgasmic spasms in pelvic muscles help move sperm up the vaginal canal to the uterus.

    16.    The typical lovemaking session lasts around 15 minutes: roughly 10 to 12 minutes of foreplay and around 3 to 5 minutes of intercourse.

    17.    Sex cures headaches. Endorphins released into our bloodstream when we have sex not only give us pleasure but also act as painkillers. Useful information to whip out the next time your partner uses a headache as a reason to say no.

    18.    Many elderly can and do have frequent sex. At age 70, 73% of males are still potent, and 30% of women 80 or older have still have sex.

    19.   The maximum speed at which erotic sensations travel from skin to brain has been clocked at 156 miles per hour.

    20.    70% of women would rather eat choclate than have sex.

Are you one of those 4000 who is having sex right now while reading my blog?

Have you contribute to "1-night stand" percentage?

Are you ready to cover 529 positions for the following week?

Let’s "do it", people! – Let’s boost those numbers!

Making Sure You Are Beautiful

A lot of times web designers, or even people who paid money to get a web design, wonder: "Does my website look good? Does my website look good on Firefox, but does not on Internet Explorer? Other way around? Does my web site look good on Firefox, Internet Explorer, but not on Safari? Does my web site loo…. etc."

Here is a wonderful tool – browsershots – that checks any website against multiple (and here multiple means a lot of) browsers and their versions, and returns screenshots of this website exactly as it appears in those browsers.

Here is a choice of browsers that ‘browsershots’ uses to test a website:

Browsershots Browsers' choice

After a website is entered for testing, it takes up to 30 minutes to get all the screenshots, but this time is definitely worth it, since the creator/owner of the website is sure that "Yes – I am Definitely Beautiful!"

Hacker Broke into a Mac

Mac SecurityA hacker managed to break into a Mac and win a $10,000 prize as part of a contest started at the CanSecWest security conference in Vancouver.

In winning the contest, he exposed a hole in Safari, Apple’s browser. "Currently, every copy of OS X out there now is vulnerable to this," said Sean Comeau, one of the organizers of CanSecWest.

The conference organizers decided to offer the contest in part to draw attention to possible security shortcomings in Macs. "You see a lot of people running OS X saying it’s so secure, and frankly, Microsoft is putting more work into security than Apple has," said Dragos Ruiu, the principal organizer of security conferences including CanSecWest.

Dino Di Zovie, who lives in New York, sent along a URL that exposed the hole. Because the contest was only open to attendees in Vancouver, he sent it to a friend who was at the conference and forwarded it on.

The URL opened a blank page but exposed a vulnerability in input handling in Safari, Comeau said. An attacker could use the vulnerability in a number of ways, but Di Zovie used it to open a back door that gave him access to anything on the computer, Comeau said.

The vulnerability won’t be published. 3Com’s TippingPoint division, which put up the cash prize, will handle disclosing it to Apple.

One reason Macs haven’t been much of a target for hackers is that there are fewer to attack, said Terri Forslof, manager of security response for TippingPoint. "It’s an incentive issue. The Mac is not as widely deployed of a platform as, say, Windows," she said. In this case, the cash may have provided motivation.

Was it a coincidence that on late Thursday Apple released a patch for 25 vulnerabilities in OS X?  :)
