Grindr Glitch Causes Panic & Rumour Among iPhone Users!

Gay cruising app Grindr is once again available for download in the iTunes App Store. Grindr creator Joel Simkhai confirmed that the app is alive and well. "Error on my part," he told Queerty. "Should be back up by EOD [end of day] today." Following the news that Grindr was missing from the iTunes App Store this morning, Twitter lit up with panicked tweets suggesting that Apple deleted the app. Apple controls the approval of all iPhone apps, and they're notoriously strict when it comes to sexy apps. It's good to know that today's Grindr incident was just a glitch, but there's still the troubling fact that Apple requires all apps to comply with prudish guidelines. As we've seen in the past month, Apple continues to reject and delete apps that are too sexy. REPORTED FROM  XTRA.CA

Virgin Unveils New SpaceShipTwo 'The Sexiest Spacheship Ever'

Sir Richard Branson unveiled the newest spaceship in the Virgin Galactic fleet, the SpaceShipTwo, yesterday. With a Hollywood-type premier, guests eagerly waited in an unusual Mojave Desert rain to get a glimpse of the new ship that promises to take passengers out of Earth's atmosphere by 2011.

As Britain's most visible showman-entrepreneur unveiled his latest creation in the southern California desert last night – a giant fantasy of a flying machine that promises to take tourists out of the Earth's atmosphere into outer space as soon as 2011 – everything was in place for the aviation equivalent of a glitzy Hollywood premiere. Branson had the klieg lights, the sound system booming eerie space-age music, and the hospitality tents doling out free champagne and vodka cocktails right on the runway of the Mojave air and space port. He even had "celebrity" guests – everyone from Victoria Principal, of Dallas fame, to Arnold Schwarzenegger, the governor of California – and countless stunning young women draped across the arms of tech geeks, engineering whizzes and assorted zillionaires, some of whom had flown halfway across the world to watch a little piece of history in the making.
