Found on Craigslist: The owners of a Columbia Heights group house are looking for someone they can hang out with, and we mean that in the most literal sense.
WJLA/ABC7 aired the first half of a four-part series on self-breast exams last night, and, as been noted all over the place, they showed 28-year-old Lauren Albright of Northern Virginia giving herself a full exam without blurring her breasts at all. Video of the first half of the report is embedded above, which does indeed include both close-up and medium shots of Albright’s breasts, so consider yourself warned if you are hesitant to watch…
The yearly ridiculousness that is the World Naked Bike Ride happened over the weekend, and while the event may have been overshadowed by Pride festivities here in D.C., photographic evidence shows a healthy number of participants still came, um, out for the ride. On the one hand, we appreciate Flickr contributor M.V. Jantzen being able to snag the more or less safe for work image above from the event. On the other, do we…
Photo of a World Naked Bike Ride in London by tylerbrekko, used under a creative commons license Via Free Ride, looks like it’s time for yet another ill-advised, barely-clothed display in our nation’s capital. The D.C. version of World Naked Bike Ride is planned for this Saturday at 4 p.m. A flyer on the group’s web site, which is part of a large, world-wide network of fairly well-attended naked rides in other cities, states…

>> OK, Joyce Carol Oates really IS going to be at Politics and Prose tonight, where she’ll read from and sign copies of her latest novel, The Gravedigger’s Daughter. Get there well before the 7 p.m. start time to stake out a seat. >> The Smithsonian Latino center presents From Mambo to Hip Hop: A Bronx Tale, a 55 minute documentary about how the South Bronx’ Boricua community makes its own brand of music…
There’s a great Canadian TV show called Slings and Arrows about the backstage sound and fury at a fictitious Shakespeare company. In one memorable episode, the director of a troubled production of MacBeth — and theatrical superstition holds that there can be no other kind — tries to turn things around by making the blowhard actor he’s been forced to cast in the title role perform his first scene with Lady MacBeth in the…
Once upon a time, in a dirty and slightly sticky corner of the motion picture industry, there were films produced purely for the sake of feeding audiences’ seemingly endless appetite for gaudy sex and near pornographic violence, often slathered with buckets of unnaturally red viscera and always with a splashy title and equally eye-catching poster.
