Tattoo Model Claims She Has (Not So Sexy) Sexts From Jesse James

 

This lady claims to have sexted with Sandra Bullock's husband.

Jesse James has yet to confirm or deny his relationship with today's most Google-searched tattoo model Michelle McGee. But In Touch is now claiming it has proof the pair at the very least sexted each other. Have we learned nothing from the Tiger Woods scandal? Or at the very least, every other episode of Degrassi: The Next Generation?
The magazine has released images of text messages which McGee claims were sent between her and James (or "Jesse J," as per McGee's caller ID). And while the released conversation dates back to May 25, 2009, the magazine claims to have messages sent as recently as March 14.
As for the content of the released messages, they're decidedly SFW, but here goes:
"Just think'n bout u this morning," writes "Jesse J," who McGee claims is the self-same Mr. Sandra Bullock.
"You need it?" he writes in another text.
"Yup," McGee replies -- though the context of the messages fails to reveal whether the "it" in question is a certain attribute of James' which McGee has previously referred to as his "Vanilla Gorilla."
James married Sandra Bullock in 2005, and has been married twice before, most recently to imprisoned porn star Janine Lindemulder with whom he has a young daughter.
McGee, the face-tattooed model impersonating Katy Perry in the photo above, claims that she and James hooked up while Bullock was away filming The Blind Side in Atlanta, and that they have continued their relationship for nearly a year.

AFP photographers win Asian Human Rights Awards

HONG KONG: Photographers from Agence France-Presse were Saturday awarded the top news and feature prizes at the prestigious Asian Human Rights Awards for outstanding coverage of riots in China's Xinjiang region and acid attack victims in Pakistan.
Beijing-based Peter Parks won the main award in the news category for dramatic images of the aftermath of deadly unrest in the northwestern Chinese region of Xinjiang in July last year.
Parks' photo of an ethnic Han Chinese mob on the streets of the town of Urumqi armed with sticks, knives and baseball bats appeared on front pages around the world.
Parks was also commended for a photo of grieving relatives of victims of the riots, while Beijing-based colleague Frederic Brown received a merit award for coverage of the anniversary of the Sichuan earthquake in May last year.
Bangkok-based photographer Nicolas Asfouri won the top features prize at the 14th annual awards, announced at a ceremony at Hong Kong's Foreign Correspondents Club, for work on assignment in Pakistan.
The head of the judging panel, former Time magazine chief Asia photographer Robin Moyer, said Asfouri's photographs of a lady disfigured in an acid attack were almost impossible to look at but extraordinarily powerful. Asfouri was also commended for a feature on child labor in Pakistan.
AFP's chief Asia photo editor Eric Baradat said it was the third year running the agency's photographers had scooped the top prizes at the awards.
“These awards are welcome recognition for AFP's photographers across the Asian region who frequently put themselves in danger to bring powerful and vital images to the world,” said Baradat.
AFP also won a special judges' award for a body of written features from Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Among the written features commended by the judges were stories about tribal justice and artists living under Taliban rule by Karachi correspondent Hasan Mansoor, a story on modern slavery by Islamabad correspondent Khurram Shahzad, a piece on the persecution of Afghan singers by Kabul correspondent Sardar Ahmad and a story on election irregularities by Emmanuel Duparcq.
This year's awards ceremony was dedicated to the memory of 32 Filipino journalists massacred in an ambush in the south of the country in November last year, the single largest killing of journalists recorded anywhere in the world.
Myrna Reblando, whose husband Alejandro of the Manila Bulletin newspaper was among the dead, accepted a special award in memory of the victims.’

Abraham Lincoln film of 1913 found in US barn cleanup

This photo provided by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences shows director and film star Francis Ford in the role of Abraham Lincoln in a 1913 film that had been lost for 97 years.

CONCORD: In a tale celebrating the romance of movies, a contractor cleaning out an old New Hampshire barn destined for demolition found seven reels of nitrate film inside, including the only known copy of a 1913 silent film about Abraham Lincoln.
''When Lincoln Paid,'' a 30-minute film about the mother of a dead Union soldier asking Lincoln to pardon a Confederate soldier whom she had initially turned in, stars the brother of John Ford, director of ''The Grapes of Wrath,'' ''The Quiet Man,'' and other classics.
''I was up in the attic space, and shoved away over in a corner was the film and a silent movie projector, as well,'' Peter Massie, a movie buff, said of his discovery in the western New Hampshire town of Nelson. ''I thought it was really cool.''
It was the summer of 2006, and the film canisters sat in his basement for a while before Massie thought of contacting nearby Keene State College, where film professor Larry Benaquist thought it was a rare find.
After working with the George Eastman House film preservation museum in Rochester, New York, the college determined that the film, directed by and starring Francis Ford, did not exist in film archives.
In fact, it was one of eight silent films starring Ford as Lincoln; there are no known surviving copies of the others.
''The vast majority of silent films, particularly from the early period, the first decade of the 20th century, are gone,'' said Caroline Frick Page, curator of motion pictures at George Eastman House. ''That's what makes these stories so incredibly special.''
The college, which plans an April 20 film screening, received a grant from the National Film Preservation Foundation to restore it. It took a Colorado lab a year to complete the task.
Benaquist said the images themselves were well preserved, likely because they endured decades of New England winters in the barn, which also was well sheltered by trees. Nitrate film, which was phased out in Hollywood in the 1950s, is highly flammable. The 35 mm film itself had shrunk and the sprocket holes used on projectors were shredded.
''What the laboratory had to do was remanufacture the sprocket holes to a new dimension, make it in strips, adhere it to the image, and then run it through a printing process where they would print it, frame by frame,'' Benaquist said.
Benaquist thinks the film was discovered in Nelson because the town is on Granite Lake, the site of many summer camps through the years. He said there was a boys' camp in the area of the barn and believes the films were shown to entertain the children, then put away and forgotten.
Helping the restoration was Mark Reinhart of Columbus, Ohio, author of ''Abraham Lincoln on Screen.'' He had a crude video copy of the film that had been made from an 8-mm copy and included a few scenes that were missing from the film found in the barn.
The college combined a DVD of the restored film with a DVD taken of Reinhart's film for its final version.
Back in 1913, the film was praised by ''Moving Picture World,'' a weekly trade publication sent to film distributors, as ''a great war drama'' with vivid battle scenes.
