This news story is pretty ridiculous. What next? Will underage teenagers who have sex with other teenagers be charged with child molestation? I lost my virginity when I was 17 and the guy was 17 as well. I don’t see anything wrong with that. And I definately don’t see anything wrong with these two teenagers taking photos of themselves for their own private pleasure.
From Cnet News:
Police blotter: Teens prosecuted for racy photos
“Combine unsupervised teenagers, digital cameras and e-mail, and, given sufficient time, you’ll end up with risque photographs on a computer somewhere.
There’s a problem with that: Technically, those images constitute child pornography. That’s what 16-year-old Amber and 17-year-old Jeremy, her boyfriend, both residents of the Tallahassee, Fla., area, learned firsthand. (Court documents include only their initials, A.H. and J.G.W., so we’re using these pseudonyms to make this story a little easier to read.)
On March 25, 2004, Amber and Jeremy took digital photos of themselves naked and engaged in unspecified “sexual behavior.” The two sent the photos from a computer at Amber’s house to Jeremy’s personal e-mail address. Neither teen showed the photographs to anyone else.
Court records don’t say exactly what happened next–perhaps the parents wanted to end the relationship and raised the alarm–but somehow Florida police learned about the photos.”

Anna Nicole Smith is Dead
“Former Playboy Playmate and TRIMSPA spokesperson Anna Nicole Smith died Thursday afternoon after she was discovered unconscious in her hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. She was 39.”
Another story:
Anna Nicole Smith Dies
“One-time Mexia chicken restaurant waitress turned Playboy model turned heiress turned reality TV star Anna Nicole Smith died Thursday afternoon after she was found unconscious in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., a law enforcement source told CNN.”
I’ve thought in the past that Anna Nicole Smith should be the Saint of Golddiggers. And I don’t mean that as an insult. It took a lot of strength for her to marry that geezer and sexually satisfy him. Personally, I think she earned that inheritance. Like many saints her life was full of hardship and suffering.
Now that she has died perhaps future golddiggers will pray to her for strength and guidance. And Saint Anna will look down from her golden palace (a sainted golddigger would live in a house of gold naturally) and bless them.

From Reuters:
Bush’s uncle tangled in options probe: SEC
NEW YORK (Reuters) - President George W. Bush’s uncle, William H.T. “Bucky” Bush, was part of a group of outside directors at a defense contractor who realized about $6 million in unauthorized pay from an options backdating scheme, according to U.S. securities investigators.
Bush and other non-employee directors who served on the board of Engineered Support Systems Inc., now owned by DRS Technologies Inc., are not accused of any wrongdoing in a civil complaint filed on Tuesday by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The SEC complaint, however, says the non-employee directors benefited from stock options not approved by shareholders.
“As a result, the company provided significant additional compensation to its outside directors beyond what shareholders had approved,” the SEC complaint said. “These same directors later realized approximately $6 million from the exercise of their addtional stock options.”

Recently Susie Bright sent me a copy of The Best American Erotica 2007 to review. While the BAE series has been published for a number of years I have never read one before this.
It certainly is an interesting mix. Some of the stories were sexy, some interesting, some thought provoking and a couple creeped me out. If you want to read a variety of erotica stories then this book is definitely for you. On the other hand if you only want a certain type of erotica then this book will be too varied for your tastes.
My favorite among the bunch? It was the last piece, Wish Girls by Matthew Addison about a man whose sexual wish has unexpected consequences. Everything about this one was enjoyable-the premise was especially clever. Until I read Wish Girls my favorite of the book had been What Happened to That Girl by Marie Lynn Bernard about two men who discover the girl they grew up with is now working in the adult industry. Excellently written, I knew it was going to be one of my favorites as soon as I started reading it.
I also enjoyed Dangerous Games with Competent People by Kim Wright. The premise is an interesting one-a woman visits her lover’s prostitute. Interestingly she wrote it in second person and it really works well. Blue Star by Sera Gamble was another good piece. The story drew me in and the erotic build up was natural and flowed very well. Taste by Susan St. Aubin was also enjoyable. I especially liked the use of food/sex analogies.
A standout piece was from The Sluts by Dennis Cooper. I was impressed by his unusual writing style. The story is told as a series of online escort reviews and the uniqueness instantly drew me in.
The two pieces that creeped me out? Dream Machine by Lauraleigh Farrell. I’ve always found sex stories with robotic beings creepy so I knew from the start I would not like this one. The Pancake Circus by Trebor Healey was the other. The very taboo nature of the story is sort of the plot twist so I won’t spoil it for you. In addition to being creeped out I was also annoyed by the sheer stupidity of the main character.
My only other gripe with the book is the story Susie chose to lead with, On The Eighth Day by Vanesa Baggot. I found the tale of gods fucking to create details on Earth to be boring and cliched. But as my husband pointed out most people would consider the subject to be quite blasphemous and therefore hot.
Would I recommend this book? Definitely. Reading this one book can expose you to new erotica authors you may never have heard of before. I certainly was. Another delight is the mashup of sexual tastes. The sex jumps all over the place; one story is lesbian based, another is heterosexual, another is a threesome and so on. I enjoyed the variety and perhaps you will as well.

This does not surprise me in the least.
From The Guardian:
Scientists offered cash to dispute climate study
Scientists and economists have been offered $10,000 each by a lobby group funded by one of the world’s largest oil companies to undermine a major climate change report due to be published today.
Letters sent by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), an ExxonMobil-funded thinktank with close links to the Bush administration, offered the payments for articles that emphasise the shortcomings of a report from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
