Woman Puts Her Virginity Up for Sale

EDITOR'S NOTE: This item was taken from our sister site at: gocalifornia.blogspot.com.

Just how much is a woman's virginity worth these days? For one San Diego woman, she hopes the answer is many dollars.

A 22-year old woman is putting her virginity on the auction block to pay for college.

Natalie Dylan, which is not her real name, already has a degree in women's studies. Now, however, the woman hopes to pay for an advanced degree in family and marriage therapy with the proceeds from the auction. According to the most recent bid, one man is willing to pay $3.7 million for a night with 'Natalie.'

Dylan said she got the idea from her sister who paid for her college education by prostituting herself for three weeks, according to the London Telegraph.

"I think me and the person I do it with will both profit greatly from the deal," Dylan informed the paper.

Fighter Plane Crash Claims 4 Victims, Pilot Safe

Editor's note: This information provided by our sister site at: gocalifornia.blogspot.com

Authorities in San Diego today discovered the fourth victim of yesterday's deadly F/A-18D plane crash in the city's University City section.

At approximately noon (PST) yesterday, a distressed fighter plane that had taken off from the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln crashed onto a street in the UC community after the pilot reported engine problems. The pilot safely ejected from the plane shortly before it went down.

Three bodies were found in one home, while a second home was apparently empty when it was destroyed by the crash and ensuing fire. The plane crash-landed on a street and plowed into the two homes, setting off a massive fire. Six other homes suffered damages from the crash and fire.

The deceased victims in the home were identified as a 36-year-old Korean woman, her daughter, and the child's grandmother. The fourth victim, a baby girl, was located in the home early this afternoon.
