Cindy Crawford, age 43 and mother of two daughters, told the British GQ magazine that she wants to be a MILF. She said:
"I don't want to be a cougar, I want to be a milf. I hate that word cougar and what it represents. Milf is a word I absolutely love....
Age can be daunting, but you can't stop it. I know 20-year-old guys don't look at me anymore. I don't feel it like I used to.
I remember walking down streets in New York at the height of my modelling career, my hair up, and all the construction guys would go crazy. It's different now."

Cheryl Cole spends about $6,000 on hair weaves each year. Her hair extensions are not made of real hair, but are acrylic. Acrylic doesn't require glue so it's less likely to create bald patches.
The Daily Mail sums up Cole's other beauty related costs in a long article here. Check out her expenses for cosmetic dentistry, false eyelashes, fake tan, makeup, a personal trainer and clothes.

Tiger Woods appears to have had quite a few extramarital relationships. This would normally cause a lot of pain for a marriage partner.
But according to the ZenCast you can listen to here, sexual misconduct can mean many things, and one of them is that all his sexual partners were also guilty of causing harm.
Having sex with a married person can lead to bad karma. Have a listen to this interesting podcast here about one of the five basic Buddhist precepts; not committing sexual misconduct. (The key discussion starts at 9 minutes and 50 seconds into the podcast.)

Here's an interesting story about how to promote yourself on Google's Street View. From TechCrunch;
Can Google Street View be used as a marketing vehicle?
Nate Heagy thinks so. He went to great lengths to follow a Google Street View vehicle and anticipate its movements so that he could set up a sign in its path and start playing a guitar so that he could promote his band, Fear Salesman. Well, he is now on Google Street View. Heagy explains how he executed his bold plan:
"Last spring, . . . I hatched a plan to promote my indie band. After making a sign and keeping it in the trunk of my car for about a month I finally chanced across the google street view car. Then I had to follow it until I figured out its pattern, then get ahead of it with time to set up."
There is only one problem. His picture was taken in the middle of nowhere. Not only is it in Saskatoon (which is in Canada, for all you geography majors out there). It is on a random residential street in Saskatoon that maybe five people will ever look up. Until now, I guess.
One of the readers at TechCrunch had this funny comment...
It would be much more interesting to look at google maps if Google would just tell us their route so we all could go out and get almost famous. Then we wouldn’t have to send our kids up in balloons, sneak into the whitehouse, or sleep with Tiger.
