One woman said she received odd, late-night phone calls and embarrassing e-mails after a former high school classmate, now in the adult pornography industry, nabbed her name. The Houston woman said she assumes her former classmate, Lara Madden, thought her name was catchy. She has used the stage name "Syvette Wimberly" in more than a dozen adult films. Now Wimberly is suing Madden, who was in her ninth-grade class, for invasion of privacy and emotional distress. She is suing both Madden and Vivid Entertainment, which produced Madden's videos, for monetary damages. She also filed an injunction against Madden to stop using her name. "I imagine she knew the name and maybe thought it sounded catchy and was unique," Wimberly said. Wimberly's attorney Caj D. Boatwright said, "Really on a weekly, if not daily basis, my client has had to deal with odd phone calls, former classmates that didn't know her that well sending her e-mails about whether she's now in the adult film industry and just a general lack of safety for her. " One legal analyst said Wimberly has a good case against Madden because the line is clear between the two women. "It's not like they pulled the name 'Jane Doe' or 'Barbara Smith' out of thin air," said KPRC legal analyst Brian Wice. "They pulled a name that's fairly peculiar to one woman in Harris County, Texas, and that's the kind of coincidence or lack of coincidence that's going to get somebody's attention in this building behind us. "

A study conducted at the University of Alberta suggests that boys aged 13 and 14 in rural areas are more prone to access pornography material than their urban counterparts are. The study, involving 429 students aged 13 and 14 from 17 urban and rural schools across Alberta, revealed that one in three boys is a porn user. It also found boys were much more frequent viewers of pornography than girls were.

Riverside County sheriff's investigators searching a home for drugs, made a dual discovery on Saturday. Not only did they find the reported methamphetamine, but the search led them to a strange looking, sloth-like mammal called a coatimundi. The hog-nosed animal is similar in appearance to raccoons but is characterized by its long snout and bear-like paws. The nocturnal animal is native to forests of Central and South America.

A political party formed by Dutch pedophiles in May wants to run in the national elections next month, but the party's secretary, Norbert de Jonge, says he doubts the Brotherly Love, Freedom and Diversity party (PNVD) will be able to get enough support. The PNVD says it wants to lift the taboo on pedophilia, and says it is in favor of lowering the age of consent from 16 to 12 and legalizing child pornography and bestiality.
