The current Daryl Hannah; pretty enough, ok in some roles, but a career that isn't going to go far.

I have a confession to make: I am a fag hag. If you are not familiar with the phrase, it means that I, as a heterosexual[i], have a disproportionate amount of homosexual friends in my inner social circle. For a while I was collecting lesbians and gays like barnacles. It wasn’t like they were a clique that I became part of, most of them were from completely different parts of my life and only knew each other through me. Two of them were grooms-people in my wedding. One was my Best Lesbian instead of a Best Man, a title she found singularly embarrassing (like this would ever stop me from using it). My pet theory is that I exude a pheromone that puts homosexuals at ease around me and they just kind of latch on. But really, it’s less bizarre than that. You know how most people tiptoe around the subject of homosexuality? I don’t do that. I stomp on their toes and tease them about it constantly. That’s the kind of person I am. I’m forever joking with people about one thing or another. Are you short? I make terrible size puns. Are you Hispanic? I make deportation jokes. Are you gay? I make jokes that are completely unsuitable to be repeated here. The first time someone called me “El Diablo Blanco”, I thought it was the funniest I had ever heard and referred to myself as such for years. I still do, on occasion. No one ever takes offense at this because if they’ve known me for more than five minutes they know none of it means anything to me. Sexual orientation means about as much to me as race, skin color, height, musical taste or any other aspect of a person does. I could care less if you sleep with a man, woman or blow up doll. It’s all the same to me and has been since I was old enough to know better. Ok, the blow up doll thing might be a bit too much for me, but I don’t judge (much). I suppose that utter indifference can be very appealing to someone who has struggled with the burden of being gay in America. If you don’t think it’s a burden, you don’t understand what being gay in America entails. It means you are despised by a good deal of the country for something that is outside of your control. You are bombarded, at every turn, with the message that you are not the norm and, hence, not normal. Think of being Jewish after Bill O’Reilly wins his imaginary War on Christmas. Everywhere you look, nativity scenes, Santa Claus and only “Merry Christmas” is allowed as a greeting. Lighting a Menorah is frowned upon as deviant. Now imagine that all year round. Billboards for men’s products display half-naked women, perfume ads show women seducing men and every single advertisement having to do with marriage shows a man and a woman. Same sex marriage is not only demonized by conservative politicians and pundits, it’s simply not legal in two-thirds of the country. That’s right; your love for your partner is legally prohibited from being expressed formally. THAT’S what it’s like to be gay in America. And the right thinks being gay is a choice? Who the hell would choose that?

If you’ve seen Jason Andrews (right) on Sean Cody, you better commit his image to memory: The 28-year-old porn actor is going away for life for the murder of Florida tattoo artist Dennis Abrahamson. According to Adult Video News, he and fellow porn star Amanda Logue agreed to join Abrahamson for a sex party in May 2010, but instead the couple bludgeoned and stabbed the 41-year-old to death and stole his credit card, cash, video camera and laptop. The killing was notable for its brutality and the callousness with which the killers planned and executed the crime, including exchanging lurid text messages in the hours leading up to the attack. Logue had been hired by Abrahamson to have sex with him on camera during the party. After they were initially released by authorities for lack of evidence, Logue and Andrews fled separately. But when new evidence emerged, Andrews was arrested in Chattanooga, TN, where he was working at an upscale cigar bar. He plead guilty in exchange for taking the death penalty off the table. Aside from his careers in porn, homicide and bartending, Andrews was known in the Chicago nightlife scene as DJ Veritas.

Officers who responded to the scene and found Jensen injured in the roadway. Burbank Fire Department personnel began life saving measures and transported Jensen to St. Joseph's Medical Center.

She stopped after the accident and was interviewed by investigators before being released. Jensen, who was originally from Denmark, was a former boxer and beloved photographer. He had been running his photography studio on Olive Avenue since 1952. During his long career, he shot everything from family portraits to boxing to Hollywood celebrities.

He described himself as Manny Pacquiao's biggest fan, and he got to meet his idol in 2011. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office and the Burbank Police Department Traffic Bureau are continuing the investigation. Anyone who may have witnessed the collision or who may have information is asked to call police at 818-238-3100.

Famed Burbank Photographer, 101, Hit and Killed Crossing Street

The daughter-in-law of Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, who has served as a volunteer high school track and field coach in Oregon, was fired on Monday after an investigation proved that she escorted a 17-year-old member of her boys track squad to the school's prom. As reported by the Associated Press, 41-year-old Melissa Bowerman, the daughter-in-law of waffle-sole inventor Bill Bowerman, escorted an unnamed 17-year-old on the Condon (Ore.) High track team to the school's prom after the runner told her he lacked a date for the prom. Bowerman, who is married to 73-year-old co-coach Jon Bowerman and also has a son on the same team, told the AP that she offered to take the student to prom in part to motivate him to improve his grades in his English class. "If they go on [academic] probation and suspension, then they can't go to the track meets," Melissa Bowerman told the AP. "I said, 'OK, I will go with you, but we've got to talk about English first. You're going to do better in English.'" Bowerman insisted that she and her date only danced to "a couple" of slow songs and spent the rest of the evening playing ping pong and foosball. The student's father also said he was OK with the coach escorting his son because, "Melissa has been like a surrogate mom to these kids for years." The handling of Bowerman's dismissal wasn't done in the most tactful manner, either. With the Condon team preparing to load a bus for the state track and field meet, the Bowermans were told that Melissa could not ride on the team bus with the athletes, her husband and other parents. In the meantime, Jon Bowerman has said he will consider resigning from the program if his wife is not allowed to return, a stunning turn of events just weeks after the school officially inaugurated a brand new, state of the art track that was made possible by a trade of the family heirloom Bowerman waffle iron that Jon's father, former Oregon track coach and Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, used to make running shoe soles for Nike that provided better traction. "The only thing we've done wrong is build them a new track and get uniforms and build them a powerhouse program," Jon Bowerman told the AP. "If she doesn't come back, I'm not coming back."
