**** THE CAMBRIA LIST! If you've never seen it here it is! The Edge - Do's and don'ts
Here's the Cambria list if you've never seen it. A lot of people in the industry disagree with some of the items. But it was designed to basically provide insight as to what would or would not position you for an obscenity prosecution by virtue of how far you push the edge in terms of degrading women and such.

On Jan. 18, 2001, Adult Video News reported on the so-called "Cambria List." Paul Cambria, a longtime attorney for the porn industry, was involved in the list's preparation. The list is controversial within the industry and interpretations differ on how it was meant to be applied. Some in the industry say it represents guidelines for the box-covers of adult videos, not for the sex acts they depict. Nevertheless, there is wide agreement that the Cambria List shows how the adult industry is seeking to be more careful, fearing a potential crackdown on pornography by the Bush administration.
