The Federal Communications Commission has proposed a $1.4 million fine against 52 ABC Television Network stations over a 2003 broadcast of cop drama NYPD Blue for a scene that included multiple close ups of a woman's booty.
FCC's definition of indecent content requires that the broadcast "depicts or describes sexual or excretory activities" in a "patently offensive way" and is aired between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
The agency rejected the network's argument that "the buttocks are not a sexual organ." Hmmm...seems the Hollywood crowd would be more experimental than that wouldn't you think? Everyone just jumps on the mattress and does the old fashioned military-style? Funny defense none the less I suppose.

Danny Glover convicted of trespassing
Glover participated in a protest as part of a larger campaign that aims to increase salaries and improve working conditions for hotel workers in the U.S. and Canada on Sept. 15th last year. He and UNITE HERE union representative Alex Dagg and Ontario Federation of Labour President Wayne Samuelson were convicted Thursday.
Canadian Niagara Hotels charged the three with trespassing at their Sheraton on the Falls property during a Sept. 16, 2006, protest. Sentencing is February 8th. Maybe next time he will just settle for a Hilton Head rental?

Rambo Admist Using Testosterone
What a shock! I never would have suspected it. A 61 year-old man looking like a pro wrestler couldn't possibly be on the juice. Stallone has likely been taking some sort of muscle supplement ever since he was in Rocky IV. IT is quite obvious to anyone really.
That's the word straight from the 'Rambo' star's mouth, chatting with Time magazine (via Page Six), saying that while he didn't use steroids to bulk up for his new slaughter-fest, he did use prescription testosterone. Stallone then goes on to defend the muscle-blaster.
"HGH [human growth hormone] is nothing. Anyone who calls it a steroid is grossly misinformed," Stallone tells Time. He says the controversial hormone should be checked out by "everyone over 40 years old."
Oh ho...re-ally. Why then is the U.S. Congress so interested in it, and the sporting world scurrying to find tests that prove players ahve been using it? Casually saying it is nothing like you were installing tv lift cabinets is probably not a good idea "Rambo". HGH is one of the most significant stories in the past two years int he sporting world.
The actor goes on to make a bold prediction about HGH and testosterone: "Mark my words. In 10 years, it will be over the counter."
Interesting. Thanks for keeping my faith in you as a role-model, Stone.
