I read that, and I was so confused about her using insurance for an abortion. I've never heard of any insurance company covering an elective one (a medical one is usually covered and coded differently). $3,000 dollars sounds like a lot too, I mean if she went to a private hospital and was put under, sure, but Planned Parenthood doesn't charge that much.

I was confused about that as well. I guess if Pitino was paying for it she might have wanted to go to a more state-of-the-art facility. It's just a strange story all around.

Even if we ignore the fact that the abortion portion of the story may well have been pure fiction, the $3k amount would make for a tidy payoff above and beyond the few hundo the abortion would cost . . . and the "health insurance" portion gives plausible deniability for a devout Catholic in the public eye.

NEW YORK – Jessica Biel is the most dangerous celebrity on the Web.

Security technology company McAfee Inc. on Tuesday reported that searches for the 27-year-old actress are more likely to lead to online threats such as spyware and viruses than searches for any other celebrity.

McAfee said fans searching for the actress have a one-in-five chance of ending up at a Web site designed to damage one's computer. Its the third annual report on the subject from McAfee, which last year found that Brad Pitt was the "most dangerous" celeb online.

Mom finds, seduces and rapes long lost son

Michigan police say a 35-year-old mother used the Internet to track down the son she gave up for adoption a decade ago, seducing and raping the teenage boy when she found him after an online search.

Aimee Louise Sword of Waterford Township, near Detroit, was arraigned this week on three charges of criminal sexual conduct for the alleged rape of her biological son, whom she put up for adoption more than 10 years ago, MyFOXDetroit reported.

Prosecutors say the boy is still a minor, but won't disclose whether he knew the woman was his mother — a situation that has horrified mental health experts who are calling the case "an abomination."

"I don't think I've heard of another case like this in my career," said Dr. Gerald Shiener, chief of Consultation and Liaison Psychiatry at Sinai Grace Hospital in Detroit.

"Our first reaction to hearing about something like this is that this is every man's nightmare. It's an abomination," he told MyFOXDetroit.

"I'm at a loss for words because it's something that we consider to be so out of the normal, so prohibited in every culture that it unnerves every man just to think about it."

Man Charged After Making Coffee Naked

The guy was alone in his home, and went into the kitchen in his birthday suit at 5:30am to make some coffee. A woman who was walking by the house with a 7-year-old boy saw him and made an indecent-exposure complaint. He was arrested, and could be fined and thrown in jail for a year.

Um... What was a 7-year-old doing awake and outside at 5:30 in the morning?

Um since when was it illegal to walk around your own house naked? That is basically what they are saying by charging this guy. Hope he finds a great lawyer, who gets this stupid charge thrown out
