Recently, The Daily Princetonian released the results of its sex survey, which explored various aspects of sexual health at Princeton. The survey itself, which yielded an interesting set of statistics and this article about emergency contraceptive use on campus, seems pretty legit. But then there's this article, entitled "Pleasuring Princeton,” which discusses the prevalence of masturbation on campus...
Here’s the gist of this wonderful exercise in statistical exploration: “Male undergraduates are much more likely to masturbate than their female peers, according to a recent survey on undergraduate sexual activity conducted by The Daily Princetonian.” Groundbreaking, no? Also, the article quoted a UCLA psychology professor who explains that these “gender discrepancies” might stem in part from male genitals being “a lot more easy to find” than their female counterparts...
...study, which drew on household income data from the Decennial Census and the 2007 American Community Survey, conducted annually by the U.S. Census Bureau, showed that the biggest gainers were married college-educated men.

...news broke that contributions from Hatoyama's mother were recorded as political funds coming from other donors - some of whom were dead.

"At this time the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory does not consider the swarm to be unusual and the earthquakes are likely related to tectonic fault sources," the statement said. "Also there is no indication of premonitory volcanic or hydrothermal activity, but ongoing analyses will evaluate these different sources...
