| Jail and Child Support??
Here is the story: CANTON, Mass. (Feb. ) - Bobby Brown was ordered on Monday to remain in a county jail until he pays $19,000 in late child support and court fees, his lawyer said. "We're diligently working on getting those funds available from outside sources," said Phaedra Parks, an attorney in Atlanta where Brown currently lives. Parks doubted Brown would get out of jail before Tuesday morning. http://news.aol.com/entertainment/music/articles/_a/bobby-brown-arrested-over-child-support/20070226143109990001Ok, this is what I do not understand. They make this out like it's a huge deal, right? Doesn't Whitney have a crap load of money, too? I do believe that fathers (based on income of the Mom and Dad) should be responsible for providing finacial support; however, if Bobby Brown was a regular Joe and Whitney Houston a regular Jane: No one would be doing anything.
CityPass marks ten years as America’s top ticket
San Francisco: CityPass tags the city's top attractions from hilltop to waterfront, skipping through Golden Gate Park, the Presidio, Chinatown and Union Square.

• Blue & Gold Bay Cruise, a one hour sailing under Golden Gate Bridge, past Sausalito, by Angel Island and around notorious Alcatraz.

Valentine's Day: Have the Ladies' Mags Lost the Love?
Given that the media often turn to the subject of love at this time of year, the Media Research Center's Culture and Media Institute decided to find out what women's magazines are writing about in their February issues.
The answer is, pretty much what you'd expect -- from Playboy. In 11 of the top-selling monthly women's magazines, with a combined circulation of more than 30 million, messages about S-E-X outnumber messages about love and romance more than 2-to-1.
Typical topics: Who's doing what, where and how many times a week? What do you do if you aren't getting it? How do you make what you are getting even better? In a few cases, the sex is in the context of marriage, but for the most part it's sex for sex's sake. In some top magazines sex is described so graphically that if it were portrayed visually it would be labeled porn and relegated to shops selling "adult" entertainment.
