The long-running ad campaign is well-known |
The old advertising slogan “Guinness is Good for You” may be true after all, according to researchers. A pint of the black stuff a day may work as well as an aspirin to prevent heart clots that raise the risk of heart attacks.
Drinking lager does not yield the same benefits, experts from University of Wisconsin told a conference in the US.
Guinness were told to stop using the slogan decades ago - and the firm still makes no health claims for the drink.
The Wisconsin team tested the health-giving properties of stout against lager by giving it to dogs who had narrowed arteries similar to those in heart disease.
They found that those given the Guinness had reduced clotting activity in their blood, but not those given lager.

An evil Princeton student takes advantage of the Placebo Effect to trick some fellow students. You cant make this stuff up:
Prankster: “You’ll get so wasted!”
Naive Freshman: “I’m willing to take that risk though, because I’m in college!”

A couple of students have fun with illusions and some nifty software dubbed ‘The Rasterbator’. Essentially it lets you take pictures and turn them into a large PDF spanning multiple pages to create murals like this. Well done guys, well done. Our hats off to you.

We have seen quite a few beer pong tables in our life, and decided to compile a list of the 33 best beer pong tables that we have ever seen. These tables were judged on overall creativity, the time it would take to make, and of course the final look of the beer pong table. With that being said, we bring you: The 33 Coolest Beer Pong Tables Ever Made!
33) Beach Beer Pong Table
So the table surface kind of sucks, but the idea to dig a huge trench is the sand is really awesome, so this made the list. Great if you enjoy sandy beer and shirtless dudes.
