Hasta La Gadget!

With Washington, D.C. gearing up for the race to 2016, more and more GOP presidential hopefuls have tossed their hats into the ring — and it looks like they’re using the same, tired, old talking points to fuel their platforms. “The HuffPost Show” took an in-depth look at Mike Huckabee’s recent announcement, starting with his misleading claims about unemployment statistics.

Seventeen years after Nick Broomfield’s documentary “Kurt & Courtney,” which explored the conspiracy theory that Courtney Love may have been involved in Kurt Cobain’s death, there’s a new docudrama for those who refuse to believe the Nirvana frontman died by suicide.

“Soaked In Bleach” takes a look at the musician’s death from the perspective of Tom Grant, the private investigator hired by Love to track down her husband after he disappeared from a rehab facility outside of Los Angeles in 1994.

The docudrama combines a couple of interviews with some rather cheesy-looking reenactments, and seems far less credible than director Brett Morgen’s actual documentary on Cobain, “Montage of Heck,” which premiered on HBO earlier this month.

For those clinging to conspiracy theories, “Soaked In Bleach,” will be released in select U.S theaters and on Vimeo on June 11.

Why are our genitals positioned between our legs?: originally appeared on Quora: The best answer to any question. Ask a question, get a great answer. Learn from experts and access insider knowledge. You can follow Quora on Twitter, Facebook, and Google+.

Answer by Joshua Engel

Genitals are between the legs of every vertebrate. In those that don’t have legs, it’s between where the legs would be (the fins of fish) or where they were (the legs of reptiles that evolved into snakes, which still have them there). They got that way because they’re an outgrowth of the excretory tract. In other vertebrates, the excretory and reproductive orifice is the same. It took the mammals to build it into a separate set of genitals.

The excretory organs are at the other end of the trunk from the mouth. That came first; limbs came later. It goes back over a billion years of evolution, to pretty much everything since the jellyfish (including not just vertebrates but insects, worms, and nematodes). Primitive multicellular organisms would eat by absorbing something at one end, processing it, and ejecting the remains from the other. The process of forming the digestive tract through the center of the blastula is one of the first things that happens to a developing embryo.

In a quadruped it’s reasonably obvious that the mouth is at one end and waste goes out the other. That’s perhaps very slightly less obvious in humans because of their upright posture, but humans are really just very slightly modified quadrupeds. The genitals are there because that’s where evolution already had an opening to work with. Evolution rarely introduces new openings into the body, which is why the process of gastrulation (developing the digestive tract) is so fundamental to all complex organisms. It only had to happen once.

• Mirrors: What would happen if you put a mirror in a scanner?
• Evolution: Do all living organisms on Earth share one ultimate common ancestor? Or did life “begin” more than once in separate places?

The Nigerian military has freed hundreds of Nigerian women and girls who were being held by Boko Haram militants in recent weeks. The militants have kidnapped at least 2,000 women and girls since the start of 2014 and according to rights groups they have forced many of the hostages into sexual slavery.

In an article this week in Cosmopolitan magazine, senior political writer Jill Filipovic investigates the lack of access to safe abortions in Nigeria and the rights of rape survivors. Filipovic sat down with HuffPost Live’s Alyona Minkovski on Tuesday.

There’s a place, just north of DTLA, where Angelenos – or visitors – can have an immersive experience of a fantastic meal, a tasting tour of a winery, and get a history lesson on LA’s early wine making pioneers. And its been there over 98 years.

Hidden along the industrial streets of the warehouse district, Los Angeles’ San Antonio Winery has been making wine since 1917, surviving prohibition only by becoming a sanctioned wine maker for the Catholic Church… amen!

Today, the renovated, working winery and restaurant embraces its heritage and boasts some of California’s least known, yet finest wines. Yes way, dude. Winemaking in LA. Totally awesome.

Winemaker Arnaud Debons worked in the Bordeaux and Cahors regions of France after graduating from the prestigious winemaking program at the University of Toulouse in France. He brings his expert tastebuds to San Antonio Winery and we get spoiled as we taste triumph with every sip and bite.

Daily wine tours and tastings offer an authentic way of learning and enjoying wines made there, as well as wines from around the world.

Maddalena Restaurant offers a daily menu, combining fresh ingredients with home-made love, that turns visitors into loyal repeat customers. Who knew the Land of Botox and silicone could also nurture old school Italian cuisine?

MUST HAVES:

Heirloom Tomato, Burrata and Peach salad with balsamic and Stella Rosa red wine reduction Red and Golden Beets Kale salad with pickled onions and feta cheese

Mushroom Ravioli with Tomato Basil Sauce was paired with the San Simeon Pinot Noir Shrimp Scampi served over Linguini.

The amazing lasagna, was deliciously paired with their San Simeon Cabernet Sauvignon. This is their most popular dish, one that I could order time and time again.

Tiramisu and Cannolis. ‘Nuff said.

Must DRINK: Everything! I specially loved their La Quinta Port. My wife, the Traveling Diva bathed in it. Ruined all her clothes, but she left with a smile on her face.

Arnaud particularly enjoys keeping an eye on the winery’s estate vineyards in Monterey, Paso Robles, and Napa Valley. Who wouldn’t? If your passion is wine, wine making, or even better, wine tasting, San Antonio winery is a trip around the world in 80 sips.
