Even if you’ve never heard of Chicago-based indie rockers OK Go, the foursome have staged one of the coolest music videos in memory. "Here It Goes Again" shows the guys in a one-take, intricately staged dance routine aboard eight treadmills. In a triumph of low-budget, fun concept, they jump forward and backward, faux figure skate, and kick out aerobic and dance floor moves. Since the video was posted in You Tube on Tuesday, it’s had more than 1.2 million hits.
Hundreds of Britons are being urged to attend what is being branded as Europe’s first "Masturbate-a-thon", a leading reproductive healthcare charity said on Friday. Marie Stopes International, which is hosting the event with HIV/AIDS charity the Terrence Higgins Trust, said it expected up to 200 people to attend the sponsored masturbation session in Clerkenwell, central London, on Saturday. "It is a bit of a publicity stunt but we hope it will raise awareness," a Marie Stopes spokeswoman told Reuters. "We want to get people talking about safer sex, masturbation and to lift taboos." Participants, who have to be over 18, can bring any aids they need and can take part in four different rooms — a comfort area, a mixed area, along with men and women only areas. However, the rules on the event’s Web site states there can be no touching of other participants nor are people allowed to fake orgasms.

Country star GARTH BROOKS’ ex-wife has spoken out about her kidnap ordeal in April (06), revealing the fugitive who abducted her was a lover she was trying to dump. SANDY BROOKS, 44, hit the headlines when 28-year-old gang member QUINTINE HARPER kidnapped her outside her Oklahoma home at gunpoint. The terrified mother of three sobbed as she drove away from bondsmen, who had arranged to meet her at her home to arrest Harper, with the fugitive at her side. Minutes later she plucked up the courage to make a dash for safety and ran into a store. Harper was arrested shortly afterwards. But, in her recent court testimony, obtained by American tabloid the Globe, Brooks confesses Harper had been her lover and she had upset her ex-husband by inviting him to stay with her and her daughters just months after meeting the thug last October (05). Things turned nasty, according to the court testimony, when Brooks grew tired of her lover’s lazy ways and demanded he get a job or move out. It was then that Harper showed his true colours and threatened the safety of Brooks and her daughters. She says, "He didn’t think it was fair that I had ended the relationship and that I didn’t know how special he was. "He started talking about (gangs) Disciples and Bloods and the Crips and he said he was a Disciple and that the tattoo of a bulldog on his arm proved it." Frightened Brooks decided to delve into her lover’s past and discovered he was on the run from officials. She called a local bondsman to notify him of Harper’s whereabouts and then attempted to dupe her boyfriend into staying with her until the law arrived.
