Ruslana Korshunova's Web posts may explain why supermodel jumped
What made the model known as the "Russian Rapunzel" jump out of a window this weekend?
It's a tragic mystery. The shocking death of the beautiful model has left many wondering what might have made Ruslana Korshunova, 20, fall to her death from her Manhattan apartment Saturday.
Police found no signs of a struggle. And friends said she had not been acting suicidal.
Now the Daily Telegraph has printed her posts on social networking websites, which seem to show the young woman had feelings of being lost, confused and unloved and suffered from mood swings. Which seems pretty normal for a 20-year-old girl. But was it serious enough to make her jump out a window?
In one message three months ago she wrote: "I'm so lost. Will I ever find myself?"
An earlier posting, quoted by the New York Daily News, she wrote: "It hurts, as if someone took a part of me, tore it out, mercilessly stomped all over and threw it out."
One cryptic entry in March reads: "My dream is to fly. Oh, my rainbow it is too high."
Other postings revealed anger. "I'm a bitch. I'm a witch. I don't care what you say ... I know why my other relationships didn't work out, 'cause I'm unpredictable. "
Her most recent posting, quoted by the New York Daily News, sounds like a discourse on the theme of love.
"Love is the sun, desire – only flash," she wrote.
"Desire dazzles, and the sun gives life."
"Love does not take away from one in order to give to another."
The 5-foot-8, long-haired beauty had been sending money home to her family in the former Soviet republic of Kazakhstan.
She'd been in ads for DKNY, Vera Wang and Christian Dior, and was hailed as "the next big thing" in Vogue three years ago. To see a gallery of her modeling photos, click HERE.
She had reportedly watched the movie "Ghost" with a former boyfriend the night of her death.
Photos: Ruslana modeling in a 2007 fashion show, a close-up of her flawless makeup for another fashion show.
Please pray for Ruslana's soul, everyone.
If everyone pray's a Hail Mary, I'm sure God will have mercy on her.
God bless.
Yours in Jesus through Mary and Joseph, accompanied by St. Philomena,
Please pray for her soul everyone!
It's always sad when supermodels die.
Those are typical comments for a 20 year old. Still not enough to explain suicide.
How truly sad for this exquisite creature. She could not conquer her demons. I have said a Hail Mary for her. May she find the peace she so deperately craved on this earth. Mental illness is very serious. Unfortunately, this girl gave up instead of seekin help. God Bless her.
The words she wrote are very telling , a witch more wicked then she( same name etc. a play on duplicity .) wanted her gone to create a vacum the amazon wants you to receive her very soon coming lie.Don`t buy it.
She left her mark on modelling...actually,she left a small crater..
they are mostly lyrics from songs.
It must of been the heavy cocaine usage which is so prevalent in the modeling industry.
But oh my what a beauty
I'm not believing she jumped. The authorities should look more closely. For her I will Novena.

JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. (AP) - The Georgia Sea Turtle Center hopes to make the summer nesting season less deadly for diamondback terrapins on the Georgia coast.
The center on Jekyll Island plans a presentation Saturday to make sure residents and visitors know about the hazards the small turtles face from cars on the island causeway. Officials say dozens of nesting female terrapins get hit by cars each year on the roadway linking Jekyll Island to the mainland. Most of them don't survive.
During the session at the island's Great Dunes Pavilion, staff from the Sea Turtle Center will demonstrate how to identify a terrapin on the roadway and what to do if they spot one.

Big investment funds have been a major part of Florida's housing market rebound. But as house prices rise again, investors are slacking off. The Tampa Bay Times has this report: ("Blackstone, big investors slow their $800 million Tampa Bay home-buying binge," by Drew Harwell.
"The seven biggest investment groups buying homes here spent half as much cash in August as they did in March or April, when their shopping sprees peaked at about 500 homes a month," the paper reports. "So why are they hitting the brakes now? Sudden jumps in home prices are souring bargains. Competition among institutional and international investors is fierce. And many are moving onto the next step of their operation, running the thousands of renovated rentals they're expecting will net them big returns."
"The investment slowdown locally has been good news for traditional home buyers, who have seized more of the market and now battle fewer all-cash offers from moneyed investors," the Times reports. It's also good news for sellers, some of whom are finally able to get out from under an upside-down situation.
The Sun Sentinel has that story: ("Fewer South Florida homeowners selling for a loss," by Paul Owers). "Fewer homes across Broward County are being sold at a loss — a sign the once-troubled housing market is turning around," the paper reports. "A dramatic decline in homes sold for a loss can be traced to aggressive investors quickly reselling renovated homes to traditional buyers, analysts say. The flurry of activity is rapidly driving up home prices and bringing profit-making back into the real estate vernacular. Throughout the county, only 29 percent of homes sold at a loss in August, compared with 46.8 percent a year ago."
Said Daren Blomquist of RealtyTrac, "Responsible flippers are serving a very useful purpose. They make these properties better and improve the values, and as the homes sell, they become the comps for other homes in the neighborhood."

Aroma Naturals Soy VegePure® Candle Serenity Ylang Ylang and Lavender -- 1 Tin
I do like that it is a soy candle and the scent is nice, but you can barely smell it when you walk in the room. Also, the can is TINY and costs way too much for the size! I was shocked by how small it really is.
June 26, 2013
Great smell
I love the candle, real ilang-ilang smell, strong but not heavy. Unfortunately the wick doesn't last long, I have an idea of starting to collect the candles and then make own my-hand-made candle. I highly recommend it!
April 13, 2013
Love the smell!
This is a small tin with a really subtle lavender and ylang ylang smell. I gave it four stars because while the smell and quality is fantastic, the price it's a bit expensive compared to other products. Overall though, I would purchase again because the tin is so cute and portable!

Here, all that was fluffy is now slush. All that was white has gone gray. The river has freed itself from its icy cover, and sea birds cluster together and bob with the current. Those who ride their bikes evoke snorts of derision from pedestrians and motorists. They slip and slide in the frozen muck and spew it from their back wheels as they go.
In Australia, a pack of ludicrously skinny men are pedaling their bicycles through the Southern summer, racing each other, while those of us on this side of the planet cling for warmth to burgeoning body fat.
If your boots aren't waterproof or you've opted for style over substance, you are likely sitting at your desk in sodden socks contemplating hypothermia. You raise your eyes to the horizon, looking for some sign of spring, but lower them again. We're not even close.
And so, it's oddly dissonant to read about Mark Cavendish struggling for form, to see pictures of the pack sprinting for the line, to even contemplate racing a bicycle right now.
For me, the Tour Down Under is a potentially great race. Picking up from our last Group Ride, Australia is a sports mad country. It offers beautiful countryside and friendly people. The Aussie contingent of the pro peloton is growing and growing. The TDU is everything the UCI's globalization plan seeks to achieve, planting the seed of cycling passion in fertile ground and tending it carefully.
If we tilt our heads to one side and squint just the right way, maybe we can see the first tendrils of the new cycling season pushing through the earth. It's a trick of perception and imagination, and one we need desperately to pull off, while our socks are drying.

We drink this every Friday
This is a delicious light cremant, with a pleasing gentle mousse. Taste is a bit lemony, a bit biscuity. Neither the bottle nor the web-site reveal the grapes, but the AOC rules require that it be mostly chardonnay, with some chenin blanc and a little mauzac. Unfortunately, as this appellation has become more fashionable, the price has crept up significantly over the past few years, but it is still good value. We drink a bottle every Friday.

Reliable and delicious
This cremant has never let us down. Excellent and sophisticated flavour for the money, good sparkle without being overwhelmingly bubbly. Never yet found another sparkling wine as good

THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE "THERE IS NO OCEAN AS GRAND AS THE WAVES OF UNDERSTANDING THAT CROSS OVER IT" F O R EIGN TRADE Dedicated to the Class of '47 THERE WERE MORE than 300 of them. It was the late summer of '46 and most of them were just out of the Air Force, probably attracted by the fact that AIFT was General Yount's school. The rest were fresh from the Army and the Navy. Their heads were full of memories of Bataa n and the long bomber raids out of Saipan, of the jungle fighting in the Solomons and New Guinea, of the Hump and the Bulge, of beachheads in Norma ndy and at Anzio, of the night flights from Britain and Foggia. Their nerves were still keyed high and there were some recollections that were better forgotten. They had an immense vitality and a gay devil-may-care a i r about them. They were civi lians again, many of them with their pockets full of separation pay and a great eagerness to spend it before they had to go to work for a living in some nine-to-five job in Brazil or Venezuela. Among those who will never forget them are the good burghers of Glendale and Phoenix. When they marched to their seats by the pool for graduation, to the tune of "Pomp a nd Circumstance", they held their heads high and were uncommonly solemn. But later that day they staged a riotous Neptune Ceremony beside the pool and wound up heaving all the spectators-faculty and students-into the water for one mass dunking. In a few days they were gone and }he as }'e empty. I do not remember how many of em ot l's i LA-200. It did not seem to matter gJieatly tbe o m thy were much more than students of mine, a na I raise a glass of A-1 to them all, wherever they may be. {; --- Contents • • THE NATIONAL ADVISORY COUNCIL BOARD OF DIRECTORS ALFRED KNIGHT Chairman of the Board Chairman of the Board Rust-Proofing, Inc.

William L. Schurz Director of the Department of Area Studies Area S tudies FEW P EOPLE TODAY have had as honored and va ried a career of foreign service as Dr. W i l liam Lytle Schu rz. As Area Studies Di rector a nd Professor of the latin America, Western Eu rope, and International Relations cou rses, Dr. Sch u rz is a rich source of knowledge a nd experience. His wa rmth, a n d understanding of other peoples a nd for mankind in general have exemplified to us the real fou ndations for a successful career abroad. Emily Brown TEACH I NG the Far East a rea is only one of the many tasks u ndertaken at AIFT by Miss Emil y Brown, Director of Public Relations. At Thunderbird after a career as correspondent in Southeast Asia d u ring a nd a fter World War II, Miss Brown lends to students of the Far East a perceptive a nd wa rmheaded g l a nce at the cultu res of the Orient. Gerald Richter Paul Wilson Depa rtment Heads Foreign Trade BY COMB INING the aggregate experience of more years than they might wish to tell, our foreign trade depa rtment teachers have conducted a yea r-long campaign to give us a clear and intelligent business picture. To our endless questions they were forever patient, and to our efforts they were always fa ir. For whatever we may know of the rea lities of foreign trade, we thank this group, whose abi l ity and sincerity were a st imulus never fu lly appreciated. And advertising, too.

Of varied personalities and numerous dialects, they afforded us a sing ular opportunity to know-and to learn from-a. good sampling of the world's population. Their eagerness and enthusiasm, thei r regards for our progress, were proven every day, in class and out. They were our teachers, and our friends. From Costa Rica and Guatamala: Opheli;� and Guilherme de Castro e Silva, Consuelo de Fleek Carmen de Boller, Jorge Carrera, and Alicia Ampiee Facultv Off Guard THE CLASSES OF 1957 represe nt the tenth anniversary graduates of AIFT. Although we have borrowed from traditions cemented for us in the past decade, each of us has brought-and doubtless received something new from the Thunderbi rd environment. For as unified as are our aims, so varied are the backgro unds of our classma tes. By fusing together these unrelated pasts, we have formed a well-knit group who, each one, has fo und this ye ar wonderfu lly rewarding in valued friendsh ips. On the next two pages are statistics that give a new perspective of our classes. 25 Class Pro file PROFILES, as profi les usually go, are generally inclined to come up with some sort of average, a common ma n, a norm, or the li ke. The May 1957 Class Profile is noth ing more tha n a reliabie brea kdown of the students themselves, from where they came, their ed ucational backgrounds, their conditio ns, marita l to ma rtia l, all ba sed on data sheets fi lled out honestly, we must suppose, by September 19, 1956. Stati stica lly there were 196 men and women students, excluding wives, who regi stered for AIFT's fu ll course. A standout 1.6tjr of us were si ngle girls (th ree). Bachelor men totaled 109 and a 55.6/ ma jority, with 84 ma rried me n comp leting the class. Of these, 56 had no children, 28 had one or more. One only needed to remain here for a yea r to see how these last figu res were readjusted. We came from all over the cou ntry, representing 36 states plus the District of Co lumbia, and 6 foreign countries. Californians preva iled with 28tjr of the class, outn umbering Il linois' seco ndla rgest delegation 4 to 1 and the voc iferous ha ndful from Texa s a little over 5 to 1. Most of us have been breathing air for about 26.9 years, with the exception of a couple of jet pilots who spent some time on pure oxygen. Our youngest reg istrant was 20, the oldest 54. Most of us were Depression babies and many of us found our fina nces in a simi lar state during the yea r. In Attempting To pay our school debts, 117 of us had aid from one of the Public Law bills. Five of that number came under the Wo rld War II bill. In other efforts to meet the levi es, over 40 students and 35 wives held full or pa rt-time jobs off campus. Another 25 students and wives were empl oyed by the Institute. Of the 184 regular AIFT students st udying languages, 145 took Spanish, 20 enrolled in Portuguese, and 19 studied French. Wives ta king part in the language training were 37, 3, and 7 respective ly. The great ma jority of us, 79 7r , have preferred to live on campus. During the fi rst semester 30 co uples lived in the surrounding area, while nine single students also resided off-campus. For the second semester; the married couples living awtly remained the same, and a total of 13 bachelors joined them in town (or the red barn), ra ising the off-campus tota l to 23%.

Those with liberal arts deg rees composed 46'}1,; of the total, while the men with B.S. deg rees included another thircl of the student body. The origin of these degrees corresponds roug hly to our geog raphical distribut ion, with the addition of 1 l foreign institutions. Our ma rti al status included 18.2 % uninitiated, 39.3 'f,, who "chose" the Army, 18.9',/, who served with the Navy, 18.4'f,, from the Air Force, 3.61]{ rugged Mari nes, and 1.6'/r Coast Guard vets. One third of these vete ra ns were officers. Du ring the yea r we drank and stud ied together; shared rooms and "johns", rumors and complaints; worried, competed, and cooperated; caght colds and preg na ncies; played pinball and juke boxes and cussed the ping-pong players when we watched T-V; let our cars get dirty and went to Nogales whenever possible; and when we lea rned more about foreign trade than we had imagined, we found out that foreigners aren't so fo rei gn after all .

While shaky hands and awkward gestures typica l ly pervade the fi rst meeting of the semester, our future orators soon find, through consistent effort, that they may become q u ite proficient in giving sponta neous speeches on "The importa nce of the Mosq u ito'' or "How to i ntroduce Vice President N i xon to a group of Democrats". For those who knew it, Speakeasy was a welcome and refreshing glance at themsel ves-a nd others. Officers for the fa l l semester were: J i m Stothers, president; Ed Ga rland, vice-president. For the spri ng semester: Darre l l Moseley, president; Bi l l Hostetter, vice-president. 1 Spanish Chorus Portuguese Chorus French Chorus LEAR N I NG THE SONGS of a cou ntry is learn i ng about its people and customs.

Last December's program saw Lloyd Ranger, Ed Garland, Niram W i l son and Dan Ha rkins reading B i blica l passages in the respecti ve languages.

C2E2 2011 Day 2 Exclusive: 'Boy Wonder' Director And Cast - Michael Morrissey, Caleb Steinmeyer, And Zulay Henao!
xfAdmittedly, when I first heard of the precariously titled 'BOY WONDER', I was skeptical on many fronts. The first being that I didn't foresee a film by such a 'Batmanesque' title as 'BOY WONDER' to be a dark, twisted, pulse pounding vigalante film with plenty of violence to go around. However, after getting a chance to see the film this past week I have to say that I joined the ranks of the many critics who have handed the Indie such high praise. The film, directed by Michael Morrissey, premiered today at The Con, and inside you can get our exclusive interview with Michael as well as stars Caleb Steinmeyer ('LOST'), and Zulay Henao ('FEAR ITSELF', 'S.DARKO')! Read on for the skinny!

David Bayard killed: Family, police look for information
A Maryland man was killed over the weekend after a night out with friends. His family and friends are pleading for anyone with information about the killing to come forward.
David Bayard was attending business school at the University of Maryland and hoped to pursue a career in finance after earning his degree. Family and friends of the 24-year-old gathered Wednesday at the spot where he was killed Sunday morning.
"This is a testament.. This is not surprising that this many people have come forward," said Travis Putvain, Baynard's brother-in-law.
Longtime girlfriend Pam Jabonete first met Bayard in high school before attending the University of Maryland with him. The two moved into their Silver Spring apartment together two years ago.
Jabonete says she last spoke to Bayard Saturday before he went out with his friends to stadium nightclub in D.C.
At 7:30 the next morning police, responding to another call, found Bayards body inside his car in this parking lot off Bladensburg Road in Colmar Manor, Md. Bayard's family believes he was on his way home from the nightclub and ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Authorities are reviewing footage from a local McDonald's and another building where Bayard's car was parked. They're also looking for leads by knocking on doors and passing out flyers to the public.
Bayards' father made a personal plea for anyone with information about his son's killer to come forward
Authorities say Bayard was killed by trauma to his upper body. His funeral will be next Friday at the memorial chapel at UMd.

For Teens
An Interview with Justina Chen Headley
How much of this book is drawn from your own life experiences? Did you experience some of the things that Patty does in the book?
Truth: This book is a work of fiction. That said, about 10 percent of what I wrote about happened to me: my mom did, in fact, make me a mysterious Tonic Soup to drink. My family belonged to a potluck group where the favorite parental activity was one-upping each other in their children's accomplishments. And I did go climbing—although it was in a climbing gym, not a building. And sadly, I have encountered my share of racism just as Patty does. Other than that, this is purely a work of fiction.
Patty's aunt helps her when she is in need. Is Patty's aunt inspired by a family member of yours?
I think all of my characters are a reflection of me, but Patty's aunt is really a conglomeration of the best of some of my friends.
We're dying to know if you've ever been subjected to belly-button fortune-telling? How about other kinds of fortune-telling? If so, did anything the teller predicted come true?
There really is a belly-button grandmother who divines the future by pressing her thumb into your belly-button. One of my roommates actually visited her in Korea, but I have not. I'd be a little scared to visit her! While no belly-button grandmother has figured in my life, one of my acquaintances is a lipsologist. She reads people's lip prints and can tell what's going on in their lives as well as read their personality. She's uncannily accurate! As a gift to me, she read lips at my book party for Nothing but the Truth (and a few white lies). Let me tell you that more men than women were in line to put on lipstick and kiss a piece of paper to have their lip prints read!
Do you feel as though you're perpetuating stereotypes of Asian mothers or that is such a common stereotype that it needs to be addressed?
When I wrote the novel, my intention was to create true-to-life characters, and that applies to the mother. She feels real to me. Now, is she a stereotype? Possibly—but then when you learn what she went through and what her motivations are, doesn't it sort of shatter the stereotype? I think that's the beauty of literature—that you can think you know a character, and then within two or three sentences, your first impression of that character is shattered.
Could you please describe your writing process?
I typically write three - four hours a day, more when I'm in the throes of a project. I believe in writing from the start to the finish and not to slow down by rewriting until that first draft is done. Of course, with my second novel that's coming out in January, Girl Overboard, I didn't have that luxury. My editor wanted to see the first 100 pages or so, and I really had to work on making that first third of my book as perfect as possible. Before I start a writing day, I take about 10-15 minutes to journal from my character's point of view about the chapter or scene I'm writing. That really focuses me.
What audience is this book directed at? Is it easier for you to write picturing a particular teen reading your book?
While my publisher categorizes my work as "young adult"—for readers 12+—I find that many of my most ardent fans are college students to fortysomething women and men. While teens inspire me like no other group, I write to please myself.
Was it important for Patty to be specifically Taiwanese versus just plain Chinese?
YES. I'm Taiwanese-American and there's been a dearth of literature featuring Taiwanese—or half-Taiwanese—people. So I really wanted my first novel to have a Taiwanese American protagonist. Plus, I thought having her be an ethnicity that's not as widely known would heighten her identity issue.
What writers influence you?
Someone once called me the Amy Tan of teens, and that to me is a high compliment. I love Amy Tan's writing. I also marvel at Sarah Dessen, Laurie Halse Anderson and K.L. Going's ability to capture the teen voice in a truly authentic way. If I could pace my novels half as well as Meg Cabot, then I'd really be doing something right—plus, I really respect her amazing generosity in grooming new writers.
How did you come up with this particular story about being half-Asian and half-white?
My children are hapa—half-Asian and half-white. This novel is a love letter to them. I want them to be proud of who they are and relish their completeness—the way I want all teens to be cool with themselves.
Would you consider writing a part two to Nothing but the Truth (and a few white lies)?
Hmmm…should I? Actually, I think that Patty's story is pretty much complete and that to write a sequel would lessen the impact of everything that she's learned—to be satisfied with herself. That said, I think Jasmine is an interesting character and she's been bugging me to write a novel just about her. So we'll see.
If you had to write a truth statement, what would it say?
Truth: I want to write the best books that I'm able and to take risks so that I keep growing as a writer. I want my books to tell the truth about life and to inspire my readers to do amazing things with their lives. Truth: I want to find that perfect balance in life—where I can be a great mother, wife and writer—as well as make a difference in the world beyond my words.
When you published Nothing but the Truth (and a few white lies), you stated that you wanted to ensure some percentage of the profit from your books went towards a community service or the teen community in general, and we appreciate that. What inspired you to do this?
My mom is a huge mentor in addition to being a wonderful mother. We didn't have much growing up, but she always found something to give to people who needed it more, whether it was a sweatshirt, a can of food or our old car. I was able to go to Stanford because of the scholarships I won. So I know how important it is for most teens to get a little help. That's why I funded the Nothing but the Truth college scholarship, and why I'm co-sponsoring the Go Overboard Challenge Grant with Burton Snowboards and Youth Venture in honor of my forthcoming novel, Girl Overboard. We're giving away a bunch of $1,000 Challenge Grants to fund community service projects spearheaded by teens.
Could you tell us more about readergirlz and how you became inspired to found it?
I made a concerted effort to visit inner-city schools when I was touring for Nothing but the Truth (and a few white lies), and that experience made me realize how few of those students ever even met an author. I came up with the idea of readergirlz—an online book community—which could be run and accessed on the Internet so that everyone, no matter how much or little they had, could have equal access to authors. Three other amazing, award-winning authors—Dia Calhoun, Janet Lee Carey and Lorie Ann Grover—founded readergirlz with me. Our mission is to celebrate gutsy girls in life and literature, featuring a different acclaimed YA novel every month PLUS a corresponding community service project.
Besides 31 Flavorite Authors for Teens, what other plans do you have in store for readergirlz?
You'll see readergirlz create innovative, unprecedented literacy initiatives to engage teens in books in fun, hip and relevant ways. For instance, come this holiday season, you'll see our new program called Best Books for BFF—which are sassy bookmarks that highlight overlooked novels so that teens read beyond the bestseller list. And then we have something very cool in the works with YALSA.
On you readergirlz site, you state you are not only celebrating strong girls but inspiring them…. What do you think are the chances of something like this happening and how can we help?
Launching and running readergirlz is and has been an enormous amount of work—especially considering that Dia Calhoun, Janet Lee Carey, Lorie Ann Grover and I are all working writers with families. We just believe in teen literacy so much that it is worth the extra hours we spend on readergirlz instead of our other projects. I am extremely hopeful that authors who write primarily for guyz will take the challenge and create readerguyz. We have the domain name waiting for them! I'd suggest that teens and librarians who want readerguyz to start lobbying their favorite authors to create it!
You've expressed that "deep thinkers are readers." As teens who are involved in making reading and libraries more exciting and meaningful for others, as well as speaking to an audience who serve teens through books and other resources, we thought this was an inspirational quote. Could you please elaborate on it?
I truly believe our world's leaders need to be readers, because you could say that the ancillary statement is that thoughtful leaders are avid readers. Just think about it: reading introduces so much more than merely providing multiple viewpoints on an issue. The very act of reading cultivates the concentration that tough decision-making on gnarly issues demands. Reading provides us with wisdom, not just smarts. It teaches us to hope in dire circumstances. It teaches us to see the complexity in conflict, yet to sift through it to its core. Isn't that what literary analysis is? Getting to the heart of a story: its theme? So, yes, I definitely believe that deep thinkers and thoughtful leaders are big readers.

City of Troy Expects Big Crowds at Downtown Tailgate
The City and the Pike County Chamber of Commerce will host downtown tailgates on Troy's square for home games this fall. It's the second year for the event. Many businesses around the square say they'll be offering special deals to football fans.There will also be live entertainment before kickoff and a large screen to show other big games across the state. Last year, more than a hundred people came out for the tailgate each game, but organizers say they're planning for bigger crowds this season. " Since last year was our first year, this year we've had time to plan more and we're going to have time to promote more and encourage people to come downtown. Definitely looking at having bigger crowds downtown than we did last year," said Leigh Anne Windham with the Pike County Chamber of Commerce.

5 Hottest Girl-on-Girl Kisses
From Sandra to Miley to Britney, look back at these real-life same-sex celebrity smooches.
By Kate Schweitzer
June 7, 2010 2:43 PMSandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson
Take that, Jesse James! In her first public appearance since news broke that her tattooed, motorcycle-loving hubby cheated, the Oscar winner proved she has better taste by getting up on international sex symbol Scar-Jo at the MTV Video Music Awards. "Now that we have done that, can we please go back to normal because therapy is really expensive," Bullock said after accepting the Generation Award. (And, for the record, this isn't Sandy's first girl-kissing rodeo. She swapped spit with Meryl Streep at the Critics Choice Awards in March.)
Miley Cyrus and Her Backup Dancer
The 17-year-old singer caused a stir for what she insists wasn't actually a kiss at all. During a live performance of her new song, "Can't Be Tamed," on Britain's Got Talent this past weekend, she pretended to make out with a female backup dancer. While the public went absolutely nuts, she insisted it was all a big misunderstanding and took to her website to set the record, er, straight. "I promise you I did not kiss her, and it is ridiculous that two entertainers can't even rock out with each other without the media making it some type of story," she wrote.
Britney Spears and Madonna
In what was not at all "Like a Virgin," the opening number at the 2003 MTV VMAs was the raunchiest performance basic cable television had seen up until then. In it, Madonna, Britney Spears, and a forever-left-out Christina Aguilera danced around on stage...and did some other things. But perhaps Xtina shouldn't feel so bad for being omitted from the girl-on-girl-kiss history books. Because it was very soon after that kiss that Spears's life took a downward-spiraling turn, the stunt has been dubbed the "kiss of death."
Jessica Biel and Sarah Silverman
MTV awards ceremonies certainly have a way of making women make out. At the 2007 VMAs, Justin Timberlake's girlfriend and the foulmouthed comedienne almost locked lips backstage. The tease was a play on the "gimmicky" Britney-Madonna moment. "I'm not going to do some stupid publicity stunt so they can make advertising dollars off of their exploitations" Silverman says, before launching in for a near lip-lock. Unlike Brit, this one left everyone wanting more.
Charlize Theron and a Lucky Lady
The actress is one smart businesswoman. Instead of just locking lips with any ol' lady, Theron drives a hard bargain. During a 2009 charity event, she was having trouble auctioning off a trip to South Africa for anything more than $30,000. So, she upped the ante and added a makeout session to the prize ("I've got t**s, for God's sake," she told the crowd). After one man bid $135,000, a woman rose to the occasion — with $140,000 — and took the stage for a 20-second smooch.
