Hot for teacher? She's got a business plan for that, apparently.
A 35-year-old California high school teacher is in hot water this week after her ex-husband reportedly revealed she was allegedly running "several" porn sites, including MySluttyTeacher.com, from her district-issue laptop, Fox 40 in Stockton reports.
We found a school district document that doesn't bode well for teacher Heidi Kaeslin. On the Lincoln Unified School District's agenda for this afternoon? A closed session to discuss employee "discipline, dismissal, release ... "
Of course, if this porn site business turns out to be fruitful, Kaeslin might just have a yawn and a good laugh. She's on paid leave as it is.
Finding inspiration for her operations, however, might prove to be more difficult if horny school boys aren't staring at her equipment.
One on of Kaeslin's sites the impetus for her digital smut was said to be the fact that 'her male students spent most of the period staring at her boobs.'
[guide2.co.nz] In a victory for fair use, the publisher of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Stephens Media, filed papers yesterday conceding that posting a short excerpt of a news article in an online forum is not copyright infringement.
The concession will result in entry of a judgment of non-infringement in a long-running copyright troll case that sparked the dismissal of dozens of baseless lawsuits filed by Righthaven LLC.
The Court dismissed Righthaven's infringement case because it did not own the article, but Democratic Underground's counterclaim against Stephens Media continued. After initially attempting to defend the bogus assertion of copyright infringement, Stephens Media has now conceded it was incorrect.
"This concession comes after more than a year of needless litigation," said EFF Senior Staff Attorney Kurt Opsahl. "Stephens Media never should have authorized Righthaven to file this suit in the first place, and should never have wasted our client's and the court's time with its attempts to keep Righthaven's frivolous claim alive for the last year."
Righthaven has filed hundreds of copyright cases based on its sham copyright ownership claims. Despite several attempts by Righthaven and Stephens Media to re-write their Strategic Alliance Agreement, half a dozen judges have ruled against the scheme to turn copyright litigation into a business.
"This is a hard fought and important victory for free speech rights on the Internet," said Laurence Pulgram, the partner who led the team at Fenwick & West, LLP in San Francisco. "Unless we respond to such efforts to intimidate, we'll end up with an Internet that is far less fertile for the cultivation and discussion of the important issues that affect us all."

There's a special place in Hell for those people.

They aren't permitted to go to Hell until the debt collectors have dunned(*) the heck out of them.
(*) Interesting etymology. Already long in use as a word indicating a persistent persecutor, as well as a hangman, it became popular in 16th Century England, because of a bailiff named Joe Dun, famous for his dogged and aggressive debt collection.
In this case, I like the other meaning as well:
And presently a halter got,
Made of the best strong hempen teer,
And ere a cat could lick her ear,
Had tied it up with as much art,
As Dun himself could do for's heart.

the RIAA is thinking of backing the Righthaven assholes
Not surprising - scum coming to the aid of other scum. Also, never surprises me when the Dems support the music / movie / media w draconian copyright laws. Its a form of corruption - in return they get millions in campaign contributions and even more in PR support.
No, what amazes me, is why the stupid party keeps supporting these trolls. I'd love to see a national GOP candidate suggest restoring our intellectual property laws back to some semblance of sanity. Not holding my breath ...

[Emirates 24/7] Texters in Pakistain better start watching their language.
Pakistain's telecommunications authority sent a letter ordering cell phone companies to block text messages containing what it perceives to be obscenities, Anjum Nida Rahman, a spokeswoman for Telenor Pakistain, said on Friday. Well, don't that take the #@!&ing cake...
It also sent a list of more than 1,500 English and Urdu words that were to be blocked.
The order was part of the regulator's attempt to block spam messages, said Rahman. The Pakistain Telecommunication Authority refused to comment on the initiative.
Many of the words to be blocked were sexually explicit terms or swear words, according to a copy of the list obtained by The News Agency that Dare Not be Named.
It also included relatively mild terms like fart and idiot. "I shall vent my methane in the general direction of the mentally challenged bunch who came up with this!"
The reasons for blocking some words, including Jesus Christ, headlights and tampon, were less clear, raising questions about practicality. Any word could conceivably be part of a spam message. How about: "Jeezis Christ! He grabs one of her headlights and she pops a tampon!"
The letter, which was also obtained by the AP, was dated November 14 and gave cell phone companies seven days to implement the order. What happens if they don't? You'll call them bad names? Don't use 'fart' or 'idiot' when you do, though. And keep your hands off their headlights.
Rahman, the Telenor spokeswoman, said her company first received the letter on Thursday and was discussing how to proceed.
"It's a big issue, so it is being examined carefully from all points of view," said Rahman.
The letter said the order was legal under a 1996 law preventing people from sending information through the telecommunications system that is "false, fabricated, indecent or obscene." Ummm... Doesn't the idea of 'obscene' kinda cover the territory of 'indecent'? And isn't 'false' information 'fabricated'? Or would it be 'fabricated' information that's 'false'?

[Dawn] US police are to re-open the investigation into the death of US actress Natalie Wood, who died in mysterious circumstances while boating in 1981, they said Thursday.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department (LASD) said new information had come to light over the death, which was deemed an accident at the time but which has long fueled speculation.
Wood drowned aged 43 while boating off of Catalina Island, near Los Angeles on November 29, 1981. It was investigated by the LASD and the LA County Coroner's Office, who ruled it was an accident.
"Recently Sheriff's Homicide Investigators were contacted by persons who stated they had additional information about the Natalie Wood Wagner drowning,"said an LASD statement.
In response, the Sheriff's Homicide Bureau "has decided to take another look at the case," it added.
Wood, born Natalia Nikolaevna Zakharenko to Russian emigre parents in San Francisco, enjoyed a glittering Hollywood career, and is best known for classic movies including "West Side Story," "Rebel Without a Cause."
Wood and husband Robert Wagner, whom she had married for a second time in 1972, were spending the Thanksgiving weekend on their yacht the "Splendour," with actor friend Christopher Walken as their guest. They had eaten at a dockside restaurant before returning to the boat to drink, when a heated row erupted between Wagner and Walken. Christopher Walken vs. Robert Wagner? I know who my money's on...
Wood left to go to the master cabin, and eventually the two men calmed down, but when Wagner returned to the cabin she was not there. She was believed to have come up on deck to tie a loose dinghy. She was later found drowned. ...and became immortalized as a punchline in one of the most tasteless jokes of all time.
"I have gone over it so many millions of times with people. Nobody heard anything," said Wagner, quoted by the LA Times, which said Thursday that police are particularly interested in new comments by the captain of the boat.
LA County Sheriff Lee Baca told the newspaper that that homicide detectives want to talk to the captain based on comments he had made recounting the case on its 30th anniversary.
"He made comments worthy of exploring," Baca said, without giving any further details.

Alcohol and salt water do not always mix very well. It's a damn shame. She was sooooooo pretty. Robert Wagner appears on TV commercials these days for a Mercedes Benz dealership in Escondido, just north of San Diego.

Roger That. And, "Reverse Mortgage" scams here in the East. Always thought that RW was scum.
Chris Walken knows the score; at least up to the point when he left the fray to go crash in his state room. He's not a pretty thing, staying up all night to drunkenly "prove a point".
(Rooters) - Seven banks that helped MF Global Holdings Ltd sell bonds were sued by pension funds who said the bonds' offering prospectuses concealed problems that led to the futures brokerage's collapse.
The lawsuit was filed Friday afternoon in Manhattan federal court against units of Bank of America Corp, Citigroup ...contributed $736,771 to the 2008 Obama campaign... Inc, Deutsche Bank AG, Goldman Sachs ...Malefactors of Great Wealth, the second most generous contributor to the 2008 Obama campaign, with a total of $1,013,091... Group Inc, Jefferies Group Inc, JPMorgan ...where we keep our plutocrats, contributed $808,799 to the 2008 Obama campaign... Chase & Co and Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc.
Other defendants include several officials associated with MF Global, including former Chief Executive Jon Corzine.
The lawsuit was brought by the IBEW Local 90 Pension Fund in Connecticut, and the Plumbers' and Pipefitters' Local #562 Pension Fund in Missouri, and seeks class-action status.

The events will play out thus: Unions win suits and are restored by banks, who are rescued by government (which is to say, taxpayers), and unions give thanks by way of contributions to The Party.

Let's see, MF Global Holdings LTD was holding union pension funds. Global was run by a Democrat. Many of those involved in these lawsuits were contributors to BHO's 2008 campaign (and most likely his 2012).
Karma's is a b!tch. What does the "MF" stand for? Obviously not what I think.

Of course the perceptive analysis stated by Glenmore could be the case too. In which case we will have to wait to see what the fickle finger of fate deals.
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The Associated Press has withdrawn the 12th and 13th Ld-Writethrus of its story about the Natalie Wood investigation. The story mistakenly quoted Christopher Walken as telling Washington, D.C. sports talk radio station ESPN980 about his recollections from the night that Wood died. An Associated Press reporter mistook what was actually a station employee's impersonation of Walken as a real interview. Must've been one of the really good Walken impressions to fool a crack AP reporter...
Take it away, Scoops...
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Actor Christopher Walken says he went to bed on a yacht he was on with actress Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner 30 years ago and awoke to learn that she had died. Walken tells Washington, D.C. sports talk radio station ESPN980 on Friday that there was drinking and shouting on the boat and that then "there was tragedy."
His comments come as Los Angeles authorities reopened the case of Wood's 1981 death in the waters off Southern California.
A boat captain said Friday that he lied to authorities about the case and that Wood's husband, Wagner, was to blame for her death.
Police said Wagner was not a suspect and that they had new information that warranted a reopening the case.

[An Nahar] The headboard of Michael Jackson's death bed has been withdrawn from an auction of personnel effects, due to family objections, the auctioneer behind the sale said.
But the sale, which comes after doctor Conrad Murray was convicted over Jackson's 2009 death, is expected to include other items from the mansion in Los Angeles' plush Holmby Hills area where Jackson died on June 25, 2009.
Auction house chief Darren Julien said the headboard was the only part of the death bed which had been included in the sale items, but had been removed following a request from the Jackson estate.
"At the request of The Estate of Michael Jackson, we are removing the headboard from the 100 North Carolwood Drive auction taking place on Saturday, December 17th," he wrote on Twitter.
"Michael Jackson has played a major part in the history of Julien's Auctions and we would never do anything that is not in the best interests of Michael's children, his mother or the estate," he added.

I kept thinking of Jack Nicholson's demonic character Daryl Van Horne, in The Witches of Eastwick, who had purchased the bed of the de' Medicis.
Though I doubt M. Jackson's bed would be that sexy for seducing women.
[Emirates 24/7] A woman activist who posted nude pictures of herself on her blog to protest limits on free expression has triggered an uproar in Egypt, drawing condemnations from conservatives and liberals alike. I'm withholding judgment until I've seen the birthday suit...
Some liberals feared that the posting by 20-year-old university student Aliaa Magda Elmahdy would taint them ahead of November 28 parliamentary elections. Are they nekkid, too?
Nudity is strongly frowned upon in Egyptian society, even as an art form.
Elmahdy wrote on her blog that the photographs -- which show her standing wearing only stockings -- are "screams against a society of violence, racism, sexism, sexual harassment and hypocrisy." Well, she does live in a Moslem country...
The blog has received 1.5 million hits since she posted the photos earlier this week. Sounds like a pretty tasty birthday suit...
The posting comes at a time when Egypt, a nation of some 85 million people, is polarized ahead of the elections, the first since the February ouster of former President Hosni Mubarak. ...The former President-for-Life of Egypt, dumped by popular demand in early 2011... The posting prompted furious discussions on Internet social media sites, with pages for and against her put up on Facebook. "Hrmph. Brazen hussy!"
"Damn! I hadda push my eyeballs back in their sockets!"
Some 100 people liked his comment, while thousands flooded the site with insults.
Elmahdy did not reply to attempts by The News Agency that Dare Not be Named to contact her.
Women rights activist Nehad Abou el-Qomsan said what Elmahdy did is rejected because posing nude is a form of body abuse. It doesn't hurt to occasionally air out your gennies, y'know...
Elmahdy and her boyfriend Kareem Amer, also a controversial blogger, have challenged Egypt's social strictures before. Earlier this year, they posted mobile phone video footage of themselves debating with managers of a public park who threw them out for public displays of affection. "You must remember this:
A kiss is just a kiss
Until the Easily Offended show up..."

[Al Ahram] Occupy London, whose protest against capitalist excess was inspired by New York's Occupy Wall Street movement, said on its website it took over the abandoned office block in the neighborhood of Hackney overnight in a "public repossession."
It is the first time the group has successfully occupied a building. Its failed effort to take over the London Stock Exchange led the protesters to set up camp outside the famed cathedral -- sparking an ongoing dispute over whether they have a right to be there.
UBS, which confirmed it owns the empty building, said it is aware of the situation and is taking the appropriate legal action.
It is not clear how long the protesters will be able to remain outside St. Paul's. The City of London Corporation has said it will go to court seeking an eviction notice after a deadline passed Wednesday for tents to be removed from the churchyard.
The first hearing will likely be next week, but the eviction process could take months.
The protesters -- who have been camped at St. Paul's since Oct. 15 -- have said they will not budge.
On Friday, Occupy London said the building it occupied in east London will not be used for "residential" purposes but as an event and meeting space called the "Bank of Ideas."
"Visitors are asked not to bring their sleeping bags," the group said on its website.
It said speakers and events -- from Paleostinian activists to comedians -- are being lined up.

[Express UK] THE EU was ridiculed last night after it took three years to issue a new rule that water cannot be sold as healthy.
In a scarcely believable ruling, a panel of experts threw out a claim that regular water consumption is the best way to rehydrate the body.
The bizarre diktat from Brussels has far-reaching implications for member states, including Britannia, as no water sold in the EU can now claim to protect against dehydration.
Any producer breaching the order, signed by European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, faces being set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock for up to two years. It took the 21 scientists on the panel three years of analysis into the link between water and dehydration to come to their extraordinary conclusion.
Last night the decision of the European Food Safety Authority's panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies was labelled "beyond parody". Ukip's deputy leader Paul Nuttall, who sits on the European Parliament's Public Health Committee, said: "I had to read this four or five times before I believed it.
"It is a perfect example of what the EU does best and makes the bendy banana law look positively sane."
Conservative MEP Roger Helmer said: "The euro is burning, the EU is falling apart and yet here they are, highly paid, highly pensioned officials trying to deny us the right to say what is patently true.
"If ever there were an episode which demonstrates the folly of the great European project then this is it."

Legia Warsaw have been fined 10,000 euros by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) after fans displayed a banner saying 'Jihad Legia' during a soccer match at home to Israeli team Hapoel Tel Aviv on September 29.
Poland has already been criticised by UEFA officials over hooliganism, which they say is destroying the image of the country that is due to co-host the 2012 European Championship with Ukraine.
In May of this year hooligans fought with police, damaged the stadium and attacked press photographers after Legia beat Lech Poznan 5-4 on penalties to win the Polish Cup final in Bydgoszcz.
[Dawn] Chairman Pakistain Tehreek-i-Insaf Imran Khan ... aka Taliban Khan, who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree... said that the Tsunami of popularity of PTI will sink the political Titanic of Pakistain Mohammedan League-Nawaz (PML-N).
He was addressing the party organizers of Lahore, Kasur, Sheikhupura and Nankana Sahib at a local hotel on Friday.
Welcoming the new comers to the party, the PTI Chairman said that party workers would never be ignored as they were very important for the party.
He congratulated the party organizers for holding a successful meeting at Minar-i-Pakistain. On this occasion PTI Lahore region president Mian Mahmood-ur-Rashid also addressed the party workers.

With the DOE's recent track record on successful 'green' energy grants, if I were the brewer, i would relook at the balance sheet and where my political donation went.
The latest idiocy I found was you can get carbon credits for using peat as a fuel.
Peat is a very inefficient fuel, produces far more CO2 than coal, and requires draining the peat bogs, which are the biggest carbon sinks on the planet.
[Daily Nation (Kenya)] Philippines police set to sit in solemn silence in a dull, dark dock, in a pestilential prison with a life-long lock ex-president Gloria Arroyo at her hospital bed on Friday on charges of conspiring with a feared warlord to rig an election, an offence that could lead to life in jail.
The events capped a tumultuous week in Philippine politics that had seen the government block Arroyo, 64, from leaving the country after she arrived at Manila Airport wearing a neck brace and saying she needed medical care abroad.
The decision by the Commission on Elections to charge her today with rigging the 2007 senatorial elections also marked the high-point in President Benigno Aquino's campaign to hold his predecessor to account for alleged graft.
"Mrs Arroyo is compelled to stay in the country and face the charges of electoral sabotage," Justice secretary Leila de Lima told news hounds after a Manila court issued an arrest warrant against the ex-president.
"(This case) has great implications not just to the integrity of our electoral system, but also to the very principles of democracy.
"It is our desire ... that the Filipino people are finally given the justice they duly deserve."
Police then served the arrest warrant on Arroyo today night at a Manila hospital where her aides said she was being treated for a rare bone disease that had led to three unsuccessful spine operations this year.

Arroyo and other former government officials including Maguindanao governor Andal Ampatuan Sr. and Maguindanao elections supervisor Lintang Bedol were accused of committing electoral sabotage in relation to the alleged 2007 poll fraud in the province where senatorial candidates of the Arroyo administration's Team Unity won in a 12-0 sweep. Electoral sabotage is a non-bailable offense. Those proven guilty of the crime will be imposed a penalty of life imprisonment.
As far as the warlord bit - it wouldn't be surprising. That's Philippine politics. Besides, GMA and her party were also known to have cultivated political ties with the New Peoples Army and their political wings. The warlord deal would just be part of doing business.
