Quidditch World Cup

As it turned out that the fictional, invented from scratch the game has become very real sport? In Quidditch played in 400 colleges, and recently held its fourth World Cup in this fabulous sport. Quidditch, which is an interesting combination of many elements of rugby, field hockey and running with disabilities, came up with an English writer JK Rowling, to give children and adults to the magical world of Harry Potter. In the real world for the first time began to play Quidditch Middlebury College students. The only thing that distinguishes them from the book’s characters, is that they do not fly on broomsticks. Below is a selection of photos from the 4 th World Cup Quidditch, which was held in New York’s Park in De Witt Clinton, 13 and 14 November.

5 Gifts That Should Be On Lady Gaga's Christmas List


Ever wonder what Lady Gaga would want for Christmas?


1.) Comfortable Shoes: For those private moments, away from the prying eyes of the papa-paparazzi, Lady Gaga NEEDS SOME UGGs. Seriously, girl, we know you are a slave to fashion. And we know your feet are the parts of you that suffer the most for it. So why not just cop yourself some UGGs and give your feet a rest already?

2.) Aaron Spelling's Mansion: It's only $150 million, and she's definitely going to need somewhere to put all your heel-less platform shoes. This place has a 17,000-square-foot attic that's been converted into a barber shop and beauty salon. Perfect to work on her walking dead look. Also, really nice natural light!

3.) Nicorette: Far safer than the cigarette glasses she wore in the "Telephone" video.

4.) Alpacas: Lady Gaga has allegedly had an up-and-down love life, including her relationship with her on-again, off-again man Luc Carl. Perhaps its time she just got a pet? We'd hate to see her walking around with a teacup Yorki in her purse, so hopefully she'll get something a little more exotic. Like an alpaca. Besides, in the winter, when she's cold, she can use their wool for sweaters. Not that we've ever seen Gaga in a sweater.

5.) An Italian Restaurant: This could be a post-music career for Lady Gaga, whom we already fancies herself something of a cook. She sent pizza to her fans waiting in line to see her on the "Today" show. And she's even invested in an Italian restaurant in New York City and apparently visited one of Brooklyn's most beloved pizza parlors. Wouldn't it be nice if she just opened a family Italian spot in Brooklyn and called it Mama Gaga's?

WHY JESUS IS GREATER THAN SANTA CLAUS



Santa lives at the North Pole.
JESUS is everywhere.

Santa rides in a sleigh.
JESUS rides on the wind and walks on the water.

Santa comes but once a year.
JESUS is an ever present help.

Santa fills your stockings with goodies.
JESUS supplies all your needs.

Santa comes down your chimney uninvited.
JESUS stands at your door and knocks, and then enters your heart when invited.

You have to wait in line to see Santa.
JESUS is as close as the mention of His name.

Santa lets you sit on his lap.
JESUS lets you rest in His arms.

Santa doesn't know your name, all he can say is "Hi little boy or girl, what's your name?"
JESUS knew your name before you did.

Not only does He know your name,
He knows your address too.
He knows your history and future and
He even knows how many hairs are on your head.

Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly.
JESUS has a heart full of love.

All Santa can offer is HO HO HO.
JESUS offers Health, Help and Hope.

Santa says "You better not cry."
JESUS says "Cast all your cares on me for I care for you."

Santa's little helpers make toys.
JESUS makes new life, mends wounded hearts, repairs broken homes and builds mansions.

Santa may make you chuckle but.
JESUS gives you joy that is your strength.

While Santa puts gifts under your tree.
JESUS became our gift and died on a tree.
Yes, from sin He sets us free!

Cool Face Shoe!









FINALLY! A Lady Gaga MEAT DRESS BARBIE!


It wasn't just high time for a Barbie version of Lady Gaga in her meat dress. It was actually well past time. But what better time to drop a Barbie in a Gaga meat dress than the third night of Hanukkah? (And I thought the new Matisyahu Hanukkah song was the perfect present!)

While we've seen Gaga Barbies before, meat dress Barbie Gaga doesn't exist... yet. It was just part of Entertainment Weekly's "Year In Gaga" feature--from its Entertainers Of The Year issue--in which the magazine excellently and INGENIOUSLY illustrated with real Barbie dolls dressed up in exacting replicas of her biggest and most memorable outfits of the year.

Bigger Gummy!


Measuring twenty-six inches in length and weighing a massive 3 pounds, Vat19′s giant gummy worm is 128 times larger than the ordinary worms you love to chew on.

Gummy bears are really good, but let’s face it, there way to small, and sometimes a whole bag of them isn’t enough to satisfy your craving of gooey goodness. The guys of Vat19 realized the seriousness of this issues and decided to finally do something about it. That’s pretty much how the world’s largest gummy worm was born.

Just like its smaller brothers, this chewy behemoth has a ribbed body, a nice smiley face so you know if you’re biting on its head or tail, and comes in a variety of dual flavors. The whole thing packs about 4,000 calories, but with a shelf life of around a year, you don’t have to rush and finish it all in one go.
