Standing in the way of control!

Everybody’s favorite supermodel, Naomi Campbell can add her name to Dickipedia’s list of dicks.

An extract:

Naomi Campbell (born May 22, 1970) is a British supermodel. She is also a singer, author, and fashion designer, although only in the sense that she has engaged in these activities, not that she is particularly good at any of them. Admittedly, she’s pretty good at the supermodeling, but a supermodel isn’t quite so super once she turns 20—and Campbell is nearly two decades beyond that.With long legs and a sophisticated, sultry style, Naomi Campbell was once the archetypal cover girl. Back in 1989. She has managed to remain in the spotlight by throwing a series of very public hissy-fits, slapping personal assistants and assaulting whoever happens to be closest with whatever happens to be closest, which in her case usually happens to be either a BlackBerry PDA or jewel-encrusted cell phone.

Campbell has blamed these “outbursts” on lingering resentment toward her father for abandoning her, but really she’s just super pissed because no male under the age of 50 has wanted to have sex with her for a very, very long time.

Naomi Campbell sweats Tyra Banks like R. Kelly at a Girl Scout meeting.

It gets even nastier as you read further:

While still embroiled in a civil case brought by former employees over said abuse, and after already serving a community service sentence of mopping floors at the New York Department of Sanitation—which to someone like her must have been worse than 10 years in state prison—Naomi totally freaked out in the VIP section of a Led Zeppelin concert at London’s O2 Arena, believing someone stole her BlackBerry. What made her even more furious is that she did not have the handheld electronic organizer to beat anyone with.

Not long after that, Naomi Campbell was arrested inside Heathrow’s airport for a variety of offenses, including spitting in a police officer’s face because her luggage was missing. For this incident, in June 2008, she was convicted and sentenced to 200 hours of community service. She was also banned from British Airways for life. In perhaps the final insult, the one that very well might propel her to her ultimate self-destruction, Naomi Campbell was removed from the invite list to Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday concert. By Nelson Mandela himself. Wow.

Time reveals that scientists may have found a cure for shyness:

Known as oxytocin (not to be confused with the painkiller OxyContin), the naturally occurring hormone is best known for controlling contractions during labor, but it also plays a key role in other fundamental human urges — including the desire to connect with others.
Without oxytocin people would be far less inclined to seek social interaction, let alone fall in love and mate for life (or, as scientists call it, “pair bond”). Conversely, researchers are beginning to discover that low levels of the hormone — or the body’s faulty response to it — may contribute to severe social dysfunctions like depression and autism.
Early studies of oxytocin’s role in social interaction have yielded some interesting results… In studies by Paul Zak, director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies in Claremont, Calif., small doses of inhaled oxytocin spray reduced anxiety and wariness of strangers in healthy volunteers; in one trial, the hormone made people feel more generous and trusting with their money.

This is good news. No need to pull out the bottle of gin to cure those effected by shyness. But, what is the potential of it being abused?
