Craigslist, the Internet's iconic ad bazaar, has stopped allowing U.S. users to access its "adult services" ads.
On Saturday morning, the link to those ads - which had been criticized by prosecutors and human-trafficking groups as a tool for pimps and prostitutes - were replaced by a black box with the word "censored" in white letters. News reports indicated that the ads were still visible to users in other countries.
It's unclear, for now, whether the change is a temporary statement or a signal that Craigslist will stop allowing the ads.
A spokeswoman for Craigslist did not respond to e-mails for comment. The company's outspoken chief executive, Jim Buckmaster, posted no explanation on his official blog or his Twitter account.
In a statement, Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal (D) - who was among 17 attorneys general who last month asked Craigslist to shut down its "adult" section - said he welcomed "Craigslist's apparent decision to close" the section.
"We welcome any steps toward eliminating the adult services section and prostitution ads on Craigslist, as we have urged, and we are seeking to verify the site's official policy going forward," Blumenthal said. "If Craigslist is doing the right thing voluntarily in response to our coalition of attorneys general, it could set an example for others."

Paris Hilton

Splash News Online

Paris Hilton's purse contained .8 grams of cocaine, cigarette wrappers commonly used for marijuana and a broken tablet of Albuterol when she was searched after a traffic stop, according to the police report.

The heiress, 29, was charged with felony cocaine possession following her weekend arrest in Las Vegas. The drug charge carries a maximum sentence of four years in prison if convicted.

Police pulled over the car in which she was riding on Las Vegas's famed Strip when an officer smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle. The arrest report says Hilton was taken into the nearby Wynn Las Vegas hotel "at her request," where she was placed in a holding room and took lip balm from her purse.

I am amused

I find it pretty funny that they actually recorded this but here's a cover of the Antoine Dodson 'Bed Intruder' remix (originally done by the auto tune the news guys) done by a collaboration of Hayley Williams of Paramore, Jordan Pundik of New Found Glory, and Ethan Luck of Relient K.

$1 million speeding fine in Switzerland for Swedish SLS owner

Thought this would interest some of you.

 Mercedes SLS AMG impounded by Swiss police, 600, 13.08.2010

37 year-old driver caught going close to 300 km/h (186 mph)

Some countries fine speeders on the basis of income. Switzerland is one of them.

Last Friday, on the A12 highway between Bern and Lausanne in Switzerland, police caught a Swedish man in a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG doing close to 300 km/h (186 mph).
"He needed over half a kilometer of road to come to a halt," according to Benoît Dumas, a local policeman, as quoted in the Guardian.
The man claimed the speedometer on the car was broken.
The speeding Mercedes ran past several photo-radars before being caught. Older radar models were not capable of clocking a car going over 200 km/h (124 mph). When he went past one with new technology, he was photographed and clocked at around 290 km/h (180 mph).
The technology allows for the data to be sent to the police immediately, who then dispatched a patrol car to pull over the speeding SLS.
The 37-year old driver was arrested and later released. He faces fines of up to £650,000/€789,568/$1,001,400. That would be the maximum of a total of 300 days of fines.
"We have no record of anyone being caught traveling faster in the country," a police spokesman is also quoted in the Guardian story.
Swiss authorities claim there is a myth in Scandinavia that all German-speaking countries, including Switzerland and Austria, have no speed limits on their autobahns, which isn't true, of course. In Germany, certain stretches of autobahn have no official limit, others do, but police can still fine you for reckless driving.

Zygor’s Alliance World of Warcraft Leveling Guide

Lately, there has been a ton of new World of Warcraft leveling guides coming out. For leveling Alliance faction characters, the Zygors Alliance World of Warcraft Leveling Guide has been the top choice of players worldwide.
For years the only real leveling guide worth having was from Brian Kopp. But with the advanced leveling techniques in Zygor’s Guide, Kopp’s guide has been left in the dust. It is still a good leveling guide when it comes to the step-by-step directions, but the map mod just is not that exciting and the general structure of Brian’s guide really wasn’t working for me, especially after I tried out this guide. Zygor’s Alliance World of Warcraft Leveling Guide boasts fantastic map mods which make using it during game-play faster and easier.
The map mod in . Zygors Power Leveling Guide is really unique. Zygor decided to go with the Cartographer map mod which has an exclusive database developed for Zygors Guide. Along with the map mod, you’ll also have a pdf file as extra reference material. But the highly detailed instructions and tips for each quest are available in-game, right on your map.
Zygor’s Alliance Leveling Guide is a nicely organized pdf file that is super easy to use and tells you everything you need to do to level up super fast in World of Warcraft. Zygor gives us simple instructions that even a noob can follow, but which will also teach old school players a lot about improving their leveling techniques. In a side-by-side comparison, Zygor’s Guide has a better overall leveling plan than Brian Kopp’s guide or the new iDemise guide.
Zygor has also developed a leveling guide for the Horde faction as well. Both are available online and come with easy to use installation instructions and free updates. Zygor’s Alliance Leveling Guide works with all classes and heirlooms, so no matter what type of character you need to level, Zygor’s guide can get you to 80 fast.
