'TIL THE COWS COME HOME: You might think that, with Atlantic City and its racetracks, New Jersey's gambling officials have enough to worry about. But the Newark Star-Ledger reports that the state is looking into the integrity of a game popular as a fund-raiser for charities: cow-pie bingo. The game works by dividing a field into grids, and contestants bet on which grid a cow . . . uh . . . will do its business. "There's no way it could be rigged," one cow-pie operator assured the paper. "You have all these witnesses and believe me, they're watching. It's all up to the cow."
HOME SWEET HOME: Fans know Tiendra Demian as the star of a series of soft-porn Emmanuelle flicks. But the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that police, acting on complaints about late-night visitors, have arrested the 33-year-old Ms. Demian on charges that she was working as a prostitute out of the basement of the Doraville home she shares with her teenage daughter. Some of the neighbors professed shock. "We thought they were a little different, but nothing you could put your finger on," Madeline Price told the paper. "They were from California. She sold vitamins."
