FAIRFAX, Va. (CBS/AP) In the privacy of his own home, Erick Williamson likes to drink his morning coffee in the buff, a fact that got several of his suburban Virginia neighbors brewing.
Now, a jury of his fully-clothed peers has convicted Williamson of indecent exposure because two women said they saw him naked while walking by the windows of his house in October. He received neither jail time nor a fine, but is appealing anyway, saying a larger principle is at stake.

DUBLIN — When world leaders in Copenhagen argue for days in knife-edge talks to save the planet, what more fitting way to relieve the tension than an environmentally-friendly vibrator?
The global sex toy industry is worth an estimated annual $15 billion and uses up a mountain of batteries in the process, many of which end up as toxic waste.
But now one Irish company reckons they’ve got the solution to shake up the market: a vibrator they are calling the world’s first-ever "green technology sex toy".
The Earth Angel, described as "eight inches (20 centimetres) with a sleek white finish", is a wind-up vibrator which comes with a handle built into the bottom.

BRITNEY Spears has taken aim at some of the tabloid stories that dogged her through 2009, publishing a list of the top 75 articles deemed to be the most ridiculous.

A statement on Spears's official website said more than 13,000 stories had been written about the singer this year - and many were either "patently absurd or simply offensive".
"We ranked the ones we believe were the most ridiculous," the statement said, trumpeting the website's list of the "top 75 Bulls#it Britney Spears stories" of 2009.
Among the stories to make the list include a report from a London tabloid citing a new Spears biography which stated that the singer's family used to eat squirrel meat during her "trailer park childhood"

LONDON — A British Anglican priest is facing criticism following a controversial sermon where he advises his congregation to shoplift, according to a report from The Daily Mail.
Rev. Tim Jones, 41, told his followers that stealing from large chain stores is sometimes the best option for the poor. He said it is better for people to steal than resort to prostitution, mugging or burglary.
He also said that it is better to steal from large, national businesses rather than small businesses.
The Daily Mail reported that Jones claims his sermon at St. Lawrence Church in York did not violate the Bible commandment "Thou shalt not steal" because God's love for the poor is more important than the property rights of the rich.

TASMANIAN Health Minister Lara Giddings has called on the state's men to help end the state's sperm drought.
The Sunday Tasmanian reported yesterday that Tasmania was down to its last four sperm donors and for the first time in the program's 35-year history women will have to go on a waiting list.
The state's IVF director Bill Watkins said fewer men donating sperm, and more interstate women draining the state's dwindling stocks, had caused the problem.
