Pamela Anderson's Anime Alter Ego: 'Stripperella' - Mon Jun 23,12:34 PM ET By Steve Gorman

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Former "Baywatch" beauty Pamela Anderson (news - web sites) (news) is making her animation debut as a superhero who dances in a strip club, but she demanded and received a no-nudity clause for her cartoon alter ego.

As a result, the upcoming cable series "Stripperella" features lots of cartoon cleavage and sexual innuendo -- she is after all "Secret Agent 69" -- but Anderson insists the show could be rated PG.

Study: Females get aroused by both sexes - Thu Jun 19, 8:35 PM ET by Randy Dotinga

SUMMARY: A new study confirms what researchers have suspected for some time -- women may prefer to date one gender or the other, but they get sexually aroused by both.

It's no surprise that lesbians like to watch lesbian pornography. But the big news in a new study is that they also get turned on by watching heterosexuals and gay men have sex.

And straight women? They like it all, too.

The findings confirm what researchers have suspected for some time -- women may prefer to date one gender or the other, but they get sexually aroused by both.

Men, on the other hand, aren't nearly as flexible. Straight men like to watch women have sex, and gay men like to watch men. Case closed.

Man Found Living with Dead Housemate - Wed Jun 11, 8:25 AM ET

BERLIN (Reuters) - German authorities put a 43-year-old man into psychiatric care after he was found living with his housemate who had been dead a month, police said on Wednesday.

Police discovered the rotting body of the 58-year-old man on his living room couch, following a tip-off from a hired gardener who grew suspicious after being repeatedly sent away. An autopsy on the body gave no hint of foul play, police said.

"The man told us he had just stopped eating," said Hans Roeck, a police spokesman in the southern town of Aalen.
