Got to admire her poise.
Dita Von Teese talks to The Daily Beast about her sexy new flipbooks, why America can’t handle her moves, and the secrets of old school burlesque. |

Recently, she had a run-in with a photographer at an airport who reportedly called her a “bitch” to get a photo opp. “When that was happening to me, I realized this is how they get Kanye West or Sean Penn or somebody beating someone down and just snapping. I thought, This is a test for me, I have to maintain my elegance because all they’re gonna see is the pictures of me being upset.” (The photographer has since “nicely and kindly and wholeheartedly” apologized, in her words.) “I do a lot of performances and if something breaks or technically goes wrong, what am I gonna do, get mad and storm off? It’s about how you deal with the crisis. People respect you more for dealing with things in an elegant manner instead of having a fit.”

The Pursuit of Sexual Happiness

You Are Accepting and Open
|
When You Are At Your Best or in a Social Setting:
You are philosophical and opinionated. You have quite a few pet causes, and you’re always adopting a new one.
People see you as clever and smart. You now a lot, and you love to talk about a variety of subjects.
When You Are Comfortable:
You are enthusiastic and flexible. You are open-minded. You prefer to learn from others… not judge them.
People see you as kind and cooperative. You are very supportive when friends are down on their luck.

Book on my list of things to get
| She is worth far more than rubies. What a description to live up to! And yet this is what the business woman and work at home mum is worth to her family. Women today crave to return home to care for their families and use their skills to contribute to the household income and yet so many feel it eludes them. Kathie gives women permission to return home and shares with the reader how she did exactly that, bringing up 5 daughters, while establishing a new industry, using skills she’d developed in the corporate world for over 20 years. She believes that women today can do what their ancestors did – work at home and care for the family, returning to old-fashioned values and using modern day skills. Concern for the welfare of our children, plus escalating costs of childcare makes this book a ‘must read’ for all mothers who want to be a ‘work at home mum’ and be there for their families. |

This got a chuckle out of me…
Aww…shucks I want that for Mother’s Day!!!
A day of driving: $1,495
“You could go from zero to happy Father’s Day in under 4 seconds by putting dad on the list for a brand new 2009 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, which starts at $203,000. But, for about $1,500, drivers can drive five such supercars along the wide open country roads of French Lick Indiana. As an extra gift, dads get crystal car keepsakes and a picture with their favorite car, which might just replace the family portrait he got last year.” |

Church Sex
|
| An Italian couple who were caught having sex in a church confessional box while morning Mass was being said have repented and made peace with the local bishop |
| The couple, in their early 30s, were detained by police earlier this month after they had made love in the confessional box in the cathedral in northern Cesena. They were cautioned for obscene acts in public and disturbing a religious function |
| Their lawyer said they had been drinking all night and realized they had gone too far |
| The lawyer told the area’s local newspaper on Wednesday the couple met with the local bishop on Tuesday night, asked for his forgiveness and that he had given it |
| Last week the bishop celebrated a “Mass of reparation” in the cathedral where the confessional box incident took place to make up for the sacrilege |
