New Tap Pours A Faster, Better Beer


(CBS) ST. PAUL, Minn. It's the kind of invention you'd expect a college student to come up with. A guy named Matthew Younkle was a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison when he thought there had to be a better way to pour beer.

He's come up with it, according to CBS affiliate WCCO-TV: Younkle's Turbo Tap invention has now been installed at every beer tap inside St. Paul's Xcel Energy Center.

"There's nothing bad about it," said Jim Domagall, general manager of Centerplate, the company that runs Xcel's concession operations. "It speeds up customer service and reduces the error for pouring a bad beer."

Cookie-Scented Ads Cause Stink

'Got Milk' Ads Removed From Bus Stops After One Day Due To Complaints

City officials ordered CBS Outdoor, the company that holds the advertising contract for its bus shelters, to remove the adhesive strips Tuesday, just one day after they were put up as part of a "Got Milk?" campaign.

The Municipal Transportation Agency canceled the plan after some residents raised objections. "We got complaints," said MTA spokeswoman Maggie Lynch. "It is controversial."

Some critics expressed concern over potential allergic reactions. Others complained the ads could be offensive to the poor and homeless who can't afford to buy sweet treats.

(Looks like city officials here have a lot of toime on their hands.)

Simpson Sisters



JESSICA and Ashlee Simpson have been slammed by a religious leader for using sex to sell their music.

A priest in Texas, the Reverend Bob Harrington, blasted the girls as having swapped “holiness” for “horniness”.

He also said their boobs would end up drooping as punishment for their sins.

The Reverend also attacked their father and manager Joe - who was formerly a Baptist minister.

The holy man fumed: “Their father has replaced his faith in the Lord with the love of money, which is the root of all evil. He has replaced holiness with horniness.

“Jessica and Ashlee will reap the dismal crops they are sowing.”

He continued: “Their breasts will sag and their faces will wither and they will be left with nothing but a hollow shell.”

He added: “They don't represent American standards and certainly not Christian standards.”
