The War Against females
Since the late 1970s, 163 million female babies have been aborted by parents seeking sons

Mara Hvistendahl is worried about girls. Not in any political, moral or cultural sense but as an existential matter. She is right to be. In China, India and numerous other countries (both developing and developed), there are many more men than women, the result of systematic campaigns against baby girls. In "Unnatural Selection," Ms. Hvistendahl reports on this gender imbalance: what it is, how it came to be and what it means for the future.

Here is a form apology that any remaining rioters might wish to use.

I, _________, wish to say that I am sorry I got caught. Next time I will make better plans such as not wandering in front of video cameras, not placing video on facebook, and not telling my various facebook friends what I burned and/or took in the riot.

I know that I have brought tremendous shame to my friends, family and co-workers, with the exception of those who were also in the riot, and those who are moral slugs like me, and those who don't give a damn. That eliminates most of my family, friends and co-workers. Sorry, Dave.

Yeah right. When's the next riot?

Cool.

Signed,

I. Ama-Dipstick

I've looked over the Reader's Tips pages over the past couple of days and haven't seen any mention of the passing of Yelena Bonner, widow of 1975 Nobel Peace Prize (back in the day when it actually meant something) winner Andrei Sakharov and a towering dissident, fighting for freedom in the Soviet era.

"I hope to live out my life until the end worthy of the Russian culture in which I've spent my life, of the Jewish and Armenian nationalities, and I am proud that mine has been the difficult lot and happy fate to be the wife and friend of academic Andrei Dmitrievich Sakharov".

RIP Yelena, a friend in Canada.

THE CITY OF SASKATOON IS A SHIT HOLE. Just look at the condition of the streets downtown. It is an embarrassment to be have a city nicknamed, SASKATOON SHINES, and to see day after day the deterioration of infrastructure. Center boulevards crumbling and full of weeds and garbage. Sand and gravel left all over the place even after a sweeper has gone over it. Saskatoon is being run into the ground by an incompetent city council, mayor, and city manager. THE VOTERS IN THIS CITY ARE JUST PLAIN STUPID.

marc in calgary, I agree.

"Stephen Harper continues to outstrip rival party leaders in popular support"

"And having Bob Rae take over the reigns as Liberal Leader hasn’t done anything for Grit party fortunes."

Lorne Gunter: Tories choose the path of least resistance in postal strike

For the life of me, I can’t understand why the Conservative government wants to involve itself in the Canada Post lockout. There are far more benefits from not getting mixed up in the dispute between the dying Crown monopoly and its overpaid workers.

"Hopes fading for climate agreement"

"“Ask for a camel when you expect to get a goat,” runs a Somali saying that sums up the fading of ambitions for United Nations talks on slowing climate change — aim high, but settle for far less.

Developing nations publicly insist the rich must agree far deeper cuts in greenhouse gas emissions, but increasingly believe that only a weaker deal can actually be achieved to keep the existing Kyoto Protocol, or parts of it, alive beyond 2012.

“They have to ask for a camel ... but will settle for a goat,” Mohamed Adow, of Christian Aid, said of poor nations’ strategy at a just-ended session of 180 nations in Bonn."

infinitysquared - good God! Where can I donate!?

neo - look, I don't like having a Hitler.... thing... going on.... but it if saves one life, somehow (how?) - (what, bad taste? Fine, I'll go for the Tom Selleck.)

Where's the patriotism for Saskatchewan in any of this? These posts have become more and more random and meaningless all the time.

The Juggler and the Riot piece are a fine examples of wherewith I speak. Give me a nation of pussies who's spend their whole life without balls tossing fake ones in the air and I'll show you a country of useless sheep; on the other hand, the post showing that useless broadcaster running down a kid shows that anyone who dares get involved in anything resembling a revolution should beware the self-appointed national castrators. No the only thing that guy wanted to do with the cannucks was to turn canada into a nation of week willed pussy eunucks ... or canneunucks.

Let's face it, all the blah blah balh in the world will not stop the masses from marching.
