NBC’s Primetime Playboy Show May Feature Actual Nudity

Considering the world only recently recovered from Janet Jackson ‘s Super Bowl boob back in 2004, it’s probably futile to get your hopes up about seeing any actual boob or butt on the upcoming NBC drama Playboy , set in the friendly confines of the Playboy Mansion back in the swinging 60’s. But Variety reports that female lead Amber Heard and other cast members have signed a nudity clause in their contracts similar to those used on pay-cable shows like Californication , which is “virtually unheard of in broadcast.” The most likely scenario is that nude scenes will be filmed, removed for primetime, and added back in for the “unrated” DVD release. But back in January newly installed NBC programming chief Bob Greenblatt told the New York Post that he intended to “push the envelope as far as his new [Comcast] bosses will let him”, so it will be a skinteresting ride at least. Stay tuned to the Mr. Skin blog for the newest, nudest updates on Playboy as they unfold!

Insurance Giant Says 2010 Had Highest Number of Extreme Weather Events

Photo: alancleaver_2000 , Flickr, CC You may remember a few of the more unfortunate extreme weather events of 2010: There was the terrible heat wave that hit Russia, and lead to deaths by heat exhaustion in Moscow.
