Australia bans small breastsThe Australian Sex Party (ASP) said that the Australian Classification Board (ACB) is now
banning depictions of small-breasted women in adult publications and films. It comes just a week after it was found that material with depictions of females ejaculating during orgasm are now Refused Classification and Australian Customs directed to confiscate it.
ASP’s Fiona Patten writes on her party’s website that
they are starting to see depictions of women in their late 20s being banned because they have an A cup breast size.
Even if you are 18 years old but you look younger, taking a photograph of your breasts and uploading it to the Internet could land you or someone you know in serious trouble.
Keep in mind it’s highly unlikely that a naked photograph of a 30, 40 or 50 year old woman with
small breasts would ‘appear’ to be child pornography on the basis of her breast size alone. Small breasts do not automatically mean something will be banned or is illegal.

Philadelphia, Police say thieves busted through walls to steal six computers from a library in a poor Philadelphia neighborhood.
Library staff noticed the thefts from the Cecil B. Moore branch of the Free Library of Philadelphia on Tuesday morning.

break through a brick wall and another wall to get inside.

Branch manager Aurora Deshauteurs says
the computers were used by children for homework and residents applying for jobs.
Because of budget cuts Deshauteurs doesn't know when the computers will be replaced.
.Pelvic Exams Being Done Without ConsentImagine that you are undergoing a fairly routine surgery – say, removal of uterine fibroids or hysterectomy. During or right after the procedure, while you are still under anesthesia, a group of
medical students parades into the operating room and they perform gynecological exams (unrelated to the surgery) without your knowledge.
Do you consider this okay, or an outrageous violation of your rights?
Regardless of your feelings, you should be aware that
this is standard procedure in many Canadian teaching hospitals.
Medical students routinely practice doing internal pelvic examinations while surgery patients are unconscious, and without getting specific consent, at least in Canada.

Julianna Mandernach filed the suit in Cook County Circuit Court against the Northeast Illinois Regional Commuter Railroad Corp. and Metra, claiming the Jan. 29, 2009, incident left her with injuries of a “personal and pecuniary nature.”

The suit seeks unspecified damages, as well as costs of the suit.
