In an effort to be well rounded...

I'll post some news links that I think are definitely interesting and some are debatable...

A mother with TWO uterus-es gives birth to twins... Spell check doesn't even have a plural of uterus. Personally, I'd like to see an x-ray of that because I find it hard to believe. The mechanics of her menstruation would be very interesting to know!!!

BBC has a children's show host who was born without an arm. You can figure out how people are responding to THAT. I understand the opposition, but those people must know they sound like assholes for complaining about a disabled woman being seen by their kids. I think having children see that not everyone with disfigurement is a monster is a good thing. Maybe DJ Paul from Three 6 Mafia would put down that towel if we were more accepting... If Teletubbies were okay for kids to see, let the woman entertain and educate children!!

Sri Lanka. You can make your own determination, but it's become apparent that the entire world is gripped by the influence of terror organizations. Interestingly enough, M.I.A. is allegedly affiliated with a Tamil Tiger militant group, but she denies the link. Regardless, Sri Lanka is her birth country, and she speaks about the situation there from time to time.

Abortion has stayed a "hot topic" that requires delicacy when dealing with people on either side of the issue. There is a "conscience clause" for "health-care professionals who don't want to perform abortions." This law is being reevaluated and revised to protect doctors as well as patients.

My own personal news is that it's SNOWING outside... Memphis weather should receive it's own descriptive word that encompasses it's irregularity!
