Sasha Cohen Does Some Bikini Gymnastics of the Day

Sasha Cohen is some Olympic figure skater who loves being in her bikini. This time she’s spiced it up with some YOGA poses in her bikini. Which is convenient, cuz I’ve been masturbating to Yoga girls on Instagram for the last month. It is my new hardcore porn, because there’s something nice about a contained body in spandex doing poses that are unnatural but amazing…especially when fantasizing about fucking them in that pose… So like this was figure skating on a Sunday when hungover, with all the panty flashing, camel toe and athleiticism, and I’d be willing to jerk off to it…fit, tight, bendy….awesome.

Breastfeeding Group on Time Cover: Way to Be!

Senate Democrats reach tentative deal on public option

Senate Democrats reached a tentative deal on the public option Tuesday night. In exchange for dropping the contentious provision, medicare will be expanded for those of age 55+ (may start in 2011), a national insurance plan would be administered by the same federal agency that oversees the respected Federal Employees Health Benefits Program(the insurance options within that plan would be offered by private, nonprofit entities) and finally, a national public option would kick in if insurance companies did not meet certain coverage standards (aka a trigger)

Many employers to raise cost of health benefits, survey finds

Though Americans who already have medical coverage may be wary of change, a new survey indicates that they may be hard-pressed to escape it — even in the absence of health-care reform. As businesses contend with rising costs, many workers face an erosion of health benefits next year, according to an annual survey released Tuesday by the Kaiser Family Foundation and the Health Research and Educational Trust.

The world’s 18 strangest buildings—and why we love them

This July, the American Institute of Architects forecasted steep declines in nonresidential construction spending through 2010. Spending is projected to decrease by 16 percent this year and another 12 percent in 2010.
