The Daily Newds

  • Classical nude drawings removed from library after a maintenance worker complained. [link]
  • Hindu holy men roam around naked smoking marijuana and offering blessings. [link]
  • "Christian nudism might sound like an oxymoron, but for thousands of devout followers, living and worshiping naked is at the core of their faith." [link]
  • Diana Payne Myers has sat naked in the Tate Modern gallery with a sign saying "Please touch". [link]
  • At show in Louisville focuses on the male nude. [link]
  • Actress Maria Bello is matter-of-fact about her nude scenes. "Emotional vulnerability is harder than nakedness - I mean, we're naked every day, right?" [link]
  • A Salt Lake City Tribune columnist has catalogued the sex scenes in "Brokeback Mountain" down to the second. He does seem to be supportive of "that kind of honesty" in films; however, I find it disturbing that this sort of clinical dissection is done for a movie about love and not done for movies with gratuitous violence.

  • Nude painting returned to shop window after outpouring of support. [link]
