''The use of drugs such as cannabis and the drinking of alcohol, sex and other obnoxious misconduct are now becoming common within the pirates, causing social problems,'' said Sheikh Ahmed, a mosque leader in the town of Galkayo. ''That is what is worrying us, a lot more than the risk they pose to the foreign ships and crew.''
@snugbug: So what is it -- hairy chest or hairless chest? Now I'm confused. They always said women can't make up their minds and this proves it. No way I'm putting my pubic hair on display in public though.
I believe that sexual harassment usually includes acts involving sexual assault. But I agree that the use of the term may have given the wrong impression of what happened.
I looked for a photo of Ping Jiang, but there's no way I'm going to put up one without being 100% certain of the guy's identity. Maybe Gawker should sponsor a photo contest in his honor.
@seyswho: It's a play on "cleavage" -- that thing mostly associated with the female of the species. Some smartass clipped the "cle" and added "he." Dumb. Bad formation.
@lobstr: The shooter wasn't Versace's ex-lover, he was some nut who maybe met him once at a charity event. I used to see Versace and his partner on the beach and walking the streets of South Beach, and he was always super gracious to people asking for pictures or autographs. He'd been in a long term relationship, and wouldn't have touched Andrew Cunanan with a ten foot pole.
@Trixie from Toronto: The people who draw the New York Times are seeing an early spike, but seeing that spike doesn't stop the people who draw the New York Times from being strong concerns.
Inflammatory comments from right-wing commentators (in all media) don't help much. I'm constantly shocked at the level of extreme hatred and vitriol expressed by the tea bag crowd. Some of their damn signs make me cringe.
@The Curse of Millhaven: They've done a stellar job. The sentence is so poorly structured, no one would ever believe that it had at some point been worse.

I had some of the same misgivings.
In any event, from the summary (I don't need more details), a horrific case and I sincerely hope the victim prevails.
