What is it with me and pale chicks?

It's mildly comforting to know that no matter where I am, no matter what time it is, I can always find "Law & Order" on TV. It's the Budweiser of TV shows. (Did that make sense?)

Option A, of course, is an episode of the original series that features Jerry Orbach. But if there isn't an Orbach episode on, it's time to look for SVU. My favorite is the episode where Detective Stabler gets really mad.

One of the reasons to look for SVU is ADA Casey Novak, played by the seriously hot Diane Neal.



Diane's web site shows a lot of her modeling photos, which mostly succeed in making her look like every other model everywhere. But either she writes the site herself or she has a very convincing ghostwriter, which is always commendable in celebrity web sites.

Bonus points in her favor: has a dog named Father Ted, loves ancient history, has a very down-to-earth blog.

(Also, I invented a new game. Punch a female celebrity's name into Google Images and turn off Safe Search. How many pages of results before you see her boobs? Over/under is 3 - for Canadian actresses, 1.)
