The Daily Newds

• In order to prove a case against illegal brothels, investigators are getting naked for a massage with a "happy ending".

  One private investigator, who was not identified, told Southern Cross Radio receiving sexual services while investigating illegal brothels is “just another job”.

• Former Navy Petty Officer and Playboy playmate Sherry Lynne White recommends that the military develop a policy that specifically provides nude modeling guidelines to service members.
• A self-styled "cultural vigilante" takes on the erosion of decency in society, including outdoor advertising.

  The billboard’s language was the least of the problems. Intentionally suggestive, it displayed a bare-bellied woman, posing provocatively in her oh-so-snug jeans. I was incensed. This kind of advertising was an assault not only on my children’s innocence, but also on the standards of decency that our culture once upheld.

  Oh yes, the "good old days" argument. Perhaps she means when slavery was legal, or when women did not have the right to vote and their husbands could legally beat them, or maybe it's WWI, or Prohibition, or The Great Depression, or WWII, or Jim Crow, etc. With 45 million people without health insurance, 100 people dying every day in Iraq, and our First Amendment rights being slowly eroded day by day, this woman is worried about a bare midriff on a billboard. Sheesh.
• In a recent interview, actress Eva Green recalls her very nude performance in "The Dreamers".

  "For my mother and sister and father to see me naked on screen was shocking." For them? "No! For me." But one might be forgiven for thinking she got over the shock: indeed, she expressed her outrage when cuts were made for the film's US release. She said: "It is quite paradoxical, because in America there is so much violence, both on the streets and on the screen. They think nothing of it. Yet I think they are frightened by sex."

• The Vice Chairman of the Brunswick Town Council in Maine sent an e-mail containing photos of several topless women to associates under the subject line "This is National Women's Breast Awareness Day". Due to all the outrage, the man has stepped down as vice chairman, but has not relinquished his seat on the council. Question: Would anyone been outraged if he had sent out an e-mail of shirtless men? Also from Maine, sales of a previously successful nude fundraising calendar have dropped off but still making money. So, let's recap: Nudes for jokes bad, nudes for money good.
