Quote: For Kim Head, 26, who works at Jacques Torres Chocolate in TriBeCa, the series had the opposite appeal. “I like the innocence of it,” she said. “I like that I feel like I’m 16 again. I feel like I’m re-virginized.”
New York Times, Nov. 16, 2012: "A Farewell to Fangs, Fur and Fandom" [^]
The average "Twilight" movie-fan is, I read, much younger than Ms. Head. I've never read any of the books, or seen any of the movies, but I certainly wish I could undergo re-virginization, as long as it was not permanent.
No more Hostess Twinkies, and now: this. What has happened to my "homeland," the U$A, where I was bored ?

TV, Cable and similars...
If you don't believe it, take a look to the maternity section of a hospital in a city where 9 months before there was a blackout.

Ha! When searching Google, they showed me an Amazon ad right at the top of the list. It claims that Amazon has a huge selection of Twinkies at low prices.

You wouldn't recognize it, Bill, but you'd still be bored.
Will Rogers never met me.

Orca Chases Dog[^]
I wouldn't have been filming that close to the edge of the water, I've seen documentaries where they take seals from the waters edge.

This looks harmless compared to a video I saw in which Orcas attacked seals at a beach. Possibly it was just curious and did not seriously want to attack.

or maybe all the urine in the water put it off?
(Orcas are pretty common in NZ waters esp. Wellington Harbour)
