A new card game was invented by some Cota Rica Rimini (Italy) players. The game includes 32 offense cards (red), 31 defense cards (blue), 1 die, 1 double-sided disc and 1 playing board representing the pitch to play a real (Beach) Ultimate game. This game will be available at Paganello for 8 euros. The money will be used to finance the Zambia Ultimate Project.

Bouncing breast simulator
Shock Absorber, a UK line of sports-bras, has a Flash-based boobies-physics simulator. Plug in a cup-size and a level of activity, and it produces a 3D animation of breasts of that size bouncing free, bouncing in a regular bra, and hardly moving at all in one of their sports-bras.

See the current world record being set, be amazed by the special moves of the Mohawks (Mac, Tequila, Bob and Felchers), laugh at the GlaxoSmithScore, then lube your table up and start a GlaxoSmithJam of your own!
