You really do have to be careful about grabbing a picture off Google Image Search to use for your own purposes. There's the obvious matter of copyright violation, of course, as the search engine adamantly warns, but it can also get kind of embarrassing.

Muang Thai Book, a textbook publisher headquartered in Nonthaburi, got "caught" this week when it popped a photo of a pretty girl on the cover of a new math text for first-year vocational students. She's cute, but she's also wearing glasses, so obviously she's smart too. And she happens to be gazing with affection at a file folder labelled "Mathematics". She's the perfect antidote to boring textbook covers - the kids will love it!

Unfortunately, the young lady turned out to be not just pretty but also a porn star.

A Twitter user who is apparently knowledgeable about these matters spotted the cover someplace and posted a picture online yesterday. He pointed out that the bespectacled model is a Japanese adult-video actress and the picture is a promotional shot for the movie "Costume Play Working Girl", which most certainly was not entered in the Best Foreign Film category at this year's Oscars.
