A US Army physician came home from a tour in Afghanistan to find that his little princess had turned into a porn star. Devout Catholic Dr. Kevin Weeks was stunned by the news, but told relatives he and his wife are still supportive of Miriam, a Duke University freshman who has been having sex on camera to pay for her huge tuition bill.

What Jesus really said was "Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more." When a crowd of men were about to stone her, and the woman feared losing her life, the words and actions of Jesus had the potential to change her life entirely.
This Duke student revels in her notoriety and even has a Facebook page devoted to her porn identity. Do you think she's willing to listen right now? Truth means condemning sin. Wisdom knows how and when to do it in order to bring that person to a relationship with Christ.
You missed my point by a mile.
I do that sometimes.
Different world. Performing in a sex tape that is "accidentally" leaked to the media is actually a career enhancer these days....
Yes, although you were perhaps correct on the priority status of the other two.
lol

For the 2012-2013 school year, about 800 freshmen (about 50% of the class) received an average of $42K in aid. That’s about $33 million, which represents about 0.6% of the endowment.
About 3.5% not needing financial aid receive “merit aid” (scholarships) averaging about $55K.
The numbers for the entire student body are similar.
So, do “almost no Duke students actually pay the rack-rate of $60K per year” as you say?
No, not true, a large percentage do.
The annual tax-advantaged returns on $6 billion in investments more than covers what they hand out to students.
In 2009-2010, donations to Duke amounted to $345 million.
A significant portion of that amount came right out of the taxpayers’ pockets in the form of tax deductions.
The notion that a university is a “non-profit” entity is bunk.
Obviously not the men who watch it! They just want to see what their future wives won’t do for them....< / sarc >
I think the concern isn’t so much that the women won’t do it for them, but that they’ll do it for others even after they’re married.
That plus the fact that no one likes a car or a spouse with too much mileage.
Hardly.
It isn't his name and face plastered all over the dozens of articles on the "Duke Porn Star" now, is it?
No, but she's got lots more Associate and Assistant Deans and Associate and Assistant Provosts and Vice Presidents (or Vice Chancellors), with much larger office staffs, to look out for her while she's getting her education than you did when you were getting your education.
LOL. You're right! I forgot about that aspect of my inferior education. I could have progressed so much more intellectually if I had had those resources at my disposal.
That Jimmy Durante schnoz is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hot.
Oh, please. I know of some who probably make close to a million a year. Doubtful that this guy did, as he was a military doc, but they aren’t poor.
Look up annual salaries, many docs make less than a good plumber. The money is in procedures, the docs in the trenches just seeing patients really don’t make that much.
Oh, that's what we are calling it? I think she is at least minoring in "Physiology"... at least from what I can tell from my Internet "research".
Shame on you!
LOL
I’ve seen his face plastered on websites, and she’s happily laughing her way to the bank....
She's a bit young...I was thinking 2017 intern class in the Clinton White House.
It certainly was a career plus for Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian.
She's completely negated the financial value that a degree from Duke brings. From here on out, she'll always be known as the "Duke porn star" and this is going to close a lot of doors.
If she was smart, she could've picked up a copy of the best-selling Super Freakonomics and learned how to make 6 figures a year as an escort. Sure, she'd still be screwing for money but she'd have made a helluva lot more of it, kept her anonymity, spared her family from embarrasment and not handicapped her future earning potential.
