More clouds than sunshine are forecast for the coastal Northeast, while sunshine returns to much of the Southeast states. An exception in the South will be the lower part of the Florida Peninsula, where showers and spotty storms can occur. A second cool push is projected to stretch from the central Appalachians to upstate New York and northwest- ern New England with clouds and showers. Most areas from the Midwest to the Great Plains and Rockies have a sunny day in store.

The magazine that helped usher in the sexual revolution in the 1950s and '60s by bringing nudity into America's living rooms — or at least its sock drawers — announced this week that it will no longer run photos of naked women. Playboyhasseenitscircu- lation plunge in recent de- cades as it has fallen victim to some of the very forces it helped set in motion. First it had to deal with competi- tion from more sexually ex- plicit magazines like Pent- house and Hustler. Now the Internet is awash in high- definition porn. Playboy has decided that the answer is less skin, not more. "You're now one click away from every sex act imaginable for free. And so it's just passé at this junc- ture," Playboy Enterprises CEO Scott Flanders told The New York Times. Starting in March, Play- boy's print edition will still feature women in sexy, pro- vocative poses, but they will no longer be fully nude. It will become more like Es- quire and other magazines with PG-13-type pictures. The Times said the mag- azine has not decided whether to continue hav- ing a centerfold. Playboy became famous for publishing nude pho- tos of some of the world's most famous women. Mari- lyn Monroe was its first cen- terfold, 62 years ago. Although the change rep- resents a major shift for the magazine, it is also the lat- est step away from full nu- dity,whichwasbannedfrom Playboy's website in August 2014. That helped make the sitesaferforwork andpublic places, and enabled Playboy to get onto Facebook, Twit- ter and other platforms. The magazine has said its online audience soared with that move, averag- ing a fourfold increase in monthly unique visitors. During Playboy's print heyday, readers could plau- sibly, if not always convinc- ingly, claim they read it for its fiction, journalism and interviews. It published the work of such writers as John Up- dike, Jack Kerouac, Nor- man Mailer, Ray Brad- bury and Joseph Heller, and interviewed the likes of Jimmy Carter, Fidel Cas- tro, Malcolm X, Muham- mad Ali, Miles Davis, Frank Sinatra and Bob Dylan. For every newsmaker or celebrity who said yes to a Playboy interview, Rensin told The Associated Press on Tuesday, there were oth- ers who said no because they didn't want their words to appear next to or near photographs of naked women. The Times said taking full nudity out of the mag- azine was something the 89-year-old Hugh Hefner signed off on when Playboy editor Cory Jones ran the idea by him. "The political and sex- ual climate of 1953, the year Hugh Hefner introduced Playboy to the world, bears almost no resemblance to today," Flanders said in a statement. "We are more free to express ourselves politically, sexually and cul- turally today, and that's in large part thanks to Hef's heroic mission to expand those freedoms."

The Associated Press HOLLISTER More than 250 firefighters battled a wildfire Tuesday that has been burning out of con- trol through thick brush in Northern California's San Benito County for more than 24 hours. No injuries were re- ported, and no structures were threatened by the blaze about 10 miles south of Hollister, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. Hollister is about 40 miles northeast of Mon- terey. In Southern California, a brush fire broke out be- tween a busy freeway and a heavily populated suburban neighborhood of two-story homes. The residents in Thousand Oaks got a scare as flames crept very close to about a dozen homes, but the fire was out less than an hour after a Ventura County sheriff's helicopter first spotted smoke.
