Visitors to Mildred's Temple Kitchen, a restaurant in Toronto, Canada, are invited to spice up their love life this Valentine's Day with a trip to the bathroom.
"Have you given any thought to moving beyond the bedroom?" patrons were asked in a not-too-subtle promotional e-mail.
The individual bathrooms will be open for sexual escapades from the 12-15th February. According to the manager, Rory Gallagher, a french maid will be working the toilets, making sure everything is "going smoothly and kept clean."
"We've always had little trysts in our bathrooms," co-owner Donna Dooher told The Toronto Star. "We're taking it to the next level on Valentine's weekend." She added that customers are expected to bring their own condoms.
Perhaps surprisingly, Toronto's Public Health food safety program manager said the restaurant wasn't breaking any laws as long as there's no intercourse in the kitchen and the bathrooms are kept clean.
"As far as bodily fluids, it's pretty much similar to the other human functions going on in there," said Chan, slightly undercutting the erotic value of the venture.
a decade has passed us by and now i must slowly give out the "best of the decade" lists. first up, andy lau, the best singer in the world. i will give my thoughts on his best 15 songs of decade (i'd do 10 but he just had too many hits, 10 won't do him justice). here's the list
15. 當我遇上你 "When I Met You" from the album "Blue Heart" and the theme song for one of Andy's best movies "A Fighter's Blue". 2000. It's an epic slow rock song. Perfect for the movie. Andy's performance was great in both the song and the movie. Very expressive. Brings out the sorrow of the story. 14. 我不夠愛你 "I Don't Love You Enough" from the album "A Man's Love". 2000. A typical Andy Lau love song, also a duet with Kelly Chen. This song has reached legendary status. A must for any karaoke occasions, no matter if you are an Andy fan or not. 13. 無間道 "Infernal Affairs" from the second best movie of the decade...you guessed it, "Infernal Affairs". 2002. A duet with Tony Leung, Andy's co-star in the movie. A great song fits a great movie with great actors. 12. 練習 "Getting Used to It" from the album "Beautiful Day". 2002. Another Andy Lau love song. Touching lyrics and great melody. "Getting used to a world without you, slowly" is probably the best line in the lyrics. 11. 只想抱抱 "Wanna Hug" from the album "Wonderful World". 2007. Also the theme song for Daodi Green Tea's commercials. Light and easy to the ears. Very soothing melody.DUN DUN DUN...drum rolls..."Here come top 10!" 10. 未到傷心處 "Not Yet Heartbroken" from the album "Love, Hope". 2009. After a couple Cantonese albums without much love songs, Andy returns to his old formula for success, but without the cheese. This song is very well written lyrics-wise and melody-wise. Andy's aged voice also adds to it, giving the song more feelings. 9. 牧笛 "Shepherd's Flute" from the album "Wonderful World". 2007. It talks about the tragic Chinese folklore about a goddess and a shepherd separated by a milky way. A love between a mortal and an immortal. Such a great song. The animation for the music video is very cool, too! 8. 天比高 "Higher than the Sky" from the album "Best of My Love". 2005. No, this is not a love song. It's a high energy rock song that's about living strong. This song opened the 2007 Wonderful World Concert. Andy sang while playing with electric shockwave. It was quite a sight. 7. 將自己給你 "For You" from the album "Just For You". 2000. The first ever theme song for Daodi Green Tea. A simple song with very nice accoustic. I'd drink those green tea too, after hearing this. 6. 月老 "Match Maker" from the album "If There's a Day...". 2003. Another great love song here. 5. 如果我有事 "If Something Happens to Me" from the album "Coffee or Tea" and movie "Yesterday Once More". 2004. This tragic love song fits perfectly with a movie about...well, something tragic. I wouldn't spoil the movie for you. It's pretty good. Go check it out. When the credits rolled and this song played, it brought tears to my eyes. 4. 心照 "Deep in my Heart" from the album "Voice". 2006. A song about friendship. Nicely composed with piano and guitar. Andy's singing was superb for this song. 3. 鴿子情緣 "Love Doves" from the album "Summer Fiesta". 2001. This song was composed with traditional Chinese musical instruments. It's quite a treat to listen to. 2. 按摩女郎 "Massage Girl" from the album "Coffee or Tea". 2004. Ha, this is my favorite song to sing. It's about a guy's affection for a massage girl, hehe. It's not meant to be dirty but I like it for the wrong reason. :P And now, for the greatest Andy Lau song EVER...this decade. You probably guessed it. YES, it's this one! 1. 繼續談情 "Continue to Love" from the album "Best of My Love". 2005. This is such a beautiful song! And yes, again, this song is about a tragic love story. A Romeo and Juliet kind of story from ancient China. The chorus of the song uses the lines from a famous poem about the legendary tale. So touching, so beautiful. Andy captured it perfectly. And there you have it. Andy Lau's best 15 of the decade. I'll leave you with the music video for the NO.1 song:
Lock the doors, board the windows, grab your silver bullets — the full moon is rising.

In Curse of the Full Moon, the fur flies like never before as humans and werewolves hunt one another in desolate alleys, darkened bedrooms, and nightmarish backwoods. Along the way, the authors fully reveal these mysterious shape-shifters.

wow, this is what steve jobs had to say about google and adobe:
On Google: We did not enter the search business, Jobs said. They entered the phone business. Make no mistake they want to kill the iPhone. We won’t let them, he says. Someone else asks something on a different topic, but there’s no getting Jobs off this rant. I want to go back to that other question first and say one more thing, he says. This don’t be evil mantra: “It’s bullshit.” Audience roars.
About Adobe: They are lazy, Jobs says. They have all this potential to do interesting things but they just refuse to do it. They don’t do anything with the approaches that Apple is taking, like Carbon. Apple does not support Flash because it is so buggy, he says. Whenever a Mac crashes more often than not it’s because of Flash. No one will be using Flash, he says. The world is moving to HTML5.
i agree with him on adobe but not google. so what if they want to kill the iphone? apple shouldn't have monopoly on smart phone business, the consumer should have a choice. Read more on Wired.com
