leaders approve porn video rentals at the campus store... The British film censorship board can't block some porn videos for sale in sex shops... And, did Jack Nicholson fly over the cuckoo's nest over a sex payment? The Newsex Roundup makes the grades? nrnBINGHAMTON, N.Y. - The State University of New York campus here is closer to offering porn videos for rent at the campus video store, now that the Student Assembly voted overwhelmingly to okay them. Now it's up to university officials, who consider the question over the summer - but university president Lois DeFleur isn't amused. She's opposed to censorship, she says, but adds that Binghamton students can get their hardcore off-campus, thank you very much. "I do not feel the university is obligated to make available all kinds of materials to students," she said. She has an ally in SUNY trustee Candace de Russy. "One's years at the university are precious," de Russy said. "It's a rare moment for students to steep themselves in the best of what has been thought and written. It's a waste to steep oneself in the most debased form of human expression." nrnLONDON - The British Board of Film Classification lost its challenge to its own Video Appeals Committee - the High Court in London has now cleared the way for seven hardcore porn films to go on sale at British sex shops, including Horny Catbabe, Nympho Nurse Nancy, TV Sex, Office Tart, and Wet Nurses 2. The High Court ruled that any risk of children seeing the films if sold in sex shops was minimal at best. The BBFC can still take it to the Appeals Court to challenge the High Court's ruling. nrnSANTA MONICA, Calif. - Did Jack Nicholson fly over the cuckoo's nest and assault a woman he was paying for sex? That question has been resurrected now that Catherine Sheehan has filed to withdraw a deal with the star to pay her $32,500 to drop a lawsuit seeking damages for the alleged 1996 attack. The incident seems to have emerged from what some reports call a threesome gone awry - a third woman, not named in the original action, allegedly joined Nicholson and Sheehan and was also promised $1,000. The attack on Sheehan was said to have happened after she asked for her promised $1,000 fee. Sheehan claimed to have been badly injured in the attack and wants to kill the original agreement because she hadn't known just how badly she'd been injured at the time. A letter from a Tarzana neurologist to the court says she has since suffered worsening headaches, fevers, and even vertigo as a result of the incident and needs "immediate and very significant medical relief and aggressive treatment." She also claims Nicholson and associates threatened to paint her publicly as a prostitute trying to extort him. Nicholson hasn't yet commented on the latest turn in the case.
