Our writer gives us the inside story on the cougars and cubs at the national convention.
When Courteney Cox is banking her post-Friends career on a show titled Cougar Town, you know the trend of older women dating younger men has reached its tipping point. The term cougar isn't just a punchline anymore. And why should it be? As Demi Moore might say, "what's wrong with women asserting their sexual needs and romantic desires with younger partners?"
If cougars are here to stay, where better to gain insight into their mating habits than the National Single Cougars Convention? The gathering, held in Palo Alto, California, brought together over 250 cougars and "cubs" (younger, presumably nubile men). While … Read More
For 18 years, Nancy Garrido stood by, knowing her husband kept another woman in captivity.
Twenty-nine-year-old Jaycee Lee Dugard was kidnapped in 1991, when she was 11 years old, by a registered sex offender named Phillip Garrido. Garrido fathered two daughters with her, now ages 11 and 15, and kept all three women in isolated sheds behind his house. Now, after 18 years of captivity and a chance investigation by University of California, Berkeley police officers, Dugard was finally discovered this past Wednesday.
"It's kind of a shocker," said Dugard's stepfather, Carl Probyn, to CNN on Friday. "It's just sick, it benefited him but destroyed everybody else. That's pretty sick."
Probyn witnessed Jaycee's abduction … Read More

Ryan Alexander Jenkins, however, tried to rebound by hitting up Las Vegas.

New Hampshire gives same-sex couples the green light while the matter goes on elsewhere
It could just be our imagination, but it seems like the gay marriage movement keeps pushing forward. With one more state allowing same-sex marriage, one former federal official supporting same-sex marriage and a plethora of other states also tackling the issue, news on the topic is not likely to taper off anytime soon.

According to the LA Times, California's Supreme Court has voted 6 to 1 to uphold the controversial Proposition 8 addendum to California Law. The law narrows the definition of marriage to a single man and a single woman.
The bill was part of the November 4th (Super-duper Tuesday for Barack Obama backers) ballot and featured millions and millions of dollars in donations from both sides of the gay marriage issue.
While it comes as very little surprise that the court upheld the law (which overturned a previous court decision codifying same-sex unions), they unanimously agreed … Read More
