Louis Vuitton Involved with Darfur?


If Paris Hilton can hit thousands of headlines and photographs with a trendy Louis Vuitton purse and a pint-size pooch, surely another newsworthy figure can do the same, right? That's what Nadia Plesner was thinking when she designed a T-shirt featuring a "pimped-out" Darfur victim holding a Vuitton handbag and a dog that resembles Hilton's Tinkerbell. Her intentions were to show how messed up the media is. Instead of focusing on the events in Africa and raising awarness the newspapers are filled with celebrity photos and gossip. Now, Louis Vuitton is suing Plesner for falsely using their company name and making it seem that Louis Vuitton has to do with what is occuring in Darfur. Plesner recieved a cease and dease letter from Vuitton and she owed them $7,500. Plesner declined and wrote about it on her website. Everyday Plesner uses their name she is charged $7,500. She currently owes $20,000.

Artistic and Creative


A least one person stands up for Miley Cyrus after the Vanity Fair photo shoot where her bare back was showing and her bare chest was covered with a sheet, Hugh Hefner. He stated, “she'd be welcomed in the magazine," he said. "Very pretty lady. And I think to make such a big to-do over something as innocent as those photos, I think is a reflection on how schizophrenic America is about sexuality." Hugh told Miley that she can pose for Playboy anytime she wants- when she’s legal of age. Miley feels completely embarrassed about the shoot and expressed that it was suppose to be artistic and creative, but was the complete opposite.

Arm, Leg, Both



Being a driver myself and seeing the gases prices I began driving less, but others have another solution. Driving at a certain speed gives you the most of your gas. With gas prices at $4 a gallon, people are using other sources of transportation and others just don’t drive anymore. As people are zooming past Joanne Papin going at 70 mph, she was going 55 mph. Some people would rather save money than time. "I read somewhere that around 62 or 63 was the best speed to drive to make the most of your gas," she said. Researchers say today's cars are most fuel efficient at speeds between around 30 and 60 mph. Not only are gas prices changing drivers habits but are reducing the demand for gas anywhere form 2 to 3 percent. A 2 to 3 percent reduction in the demand for gas can possible decrease gas prices. So now I have an excuse if I get pulled over for speeding in a 25 mph zone. 
