Magazine promotes sterilization for women in their 20’s
A popular women’s magazine in the UK recently featured an article entitled, Young, Single and Sterilized, in which women in their 20’s discussed why they had undergone an operation to prevent them from ever having children. The article is little more than PR for a “women’s charity” called Marie Stopes International, an organization that carries out abortions and sterilizations and was founded by a Nazi eugenicist who advocated compulsory sterilization of non-whites and “those of bad character”.
The story appears in a weekly magazine called Love It One of the women featured in the article, Chloe, explains why she decided to have herself sterilized at the age of just 20.
“By the time I was 18, I knew I was never going to change. I couldn’t imagine letting something take over my body and then my whole life.”
“I couldn’t even look at a baby without feeling uncomfortable.”
Following the sterilization procedure, Chloe celebrates the fact that “I’ve got a lifetime of going out ahead of me now,” presumably meaning going out, getting mindlessly drunk and having sex with random strangers, as is British culture, while not having to worry about the risk of pregnancy or the responsibility of looking after a child.
Ironically, another woman speaks about how she first became interested in the idea of being sterilized after reading about the subject in a women’s magazine.
Jacquelyn Arnold tells of how she felt “irritation” at the sight of children playing in a garden and decided to go ahead with the operation, which is described in routine and straightforward terms. Arnold says she has no regrets and has ‘taken control of her life’.
Sterilization is lauded as an “excellent method of birth control” by Dr. Patricia Lohr of the British Pregnancy Advisory Service.
The article includes an advertisement that encourages women to seek “more information about sterilization” by contacting Marie Stopes International. We read that, “Over the past year, a quarter of the women who booked a sterilisation consultation with women’s charity Marie Stopes were aged 30 or under.”
Marie Stopes was a feminist who opened the first birth control clinic in Britain in 1921 as well as being Nazi sympathizer and a eugenicist who advocated that non-whites and the poor be sterilized.
Stopes, a racist and an anti-Semite, campaigned for selective breeding to achieve racial purity, a passion she shared with Adolf Hitler in adoring letters and poems that she sent the leader of the Third Reich.
Stopes also attended the Nazi congress on population science in Berlin in 1935, while calling for the “compulsory sterilization of the diseased, drunkards, or simply those of bad character.” Stopes acted on her appalling theories by concentrating her abortion clinics in poor areas so as to reduce the birth rate of the lower classes.

Air Fresheners: Fabria Snow Gun Makes Febreeze Obsolete
"Leave it to Japanese ingenuity to take Febreeze, long a staple of stoned, slovenly domicile dwellers and Pig Pen wannabes, and turn it into something utterly amazing and pointless at the same time. The "innovention" in this case is the Fabria Freshness Gun, which blankets your home with a "soft, snow-like mist that uses the natural deodorizing qualities of astringent persimmon and grapefruit." ...
"The site apparently says this is environmentally friendly, and the flakes dissolve, eventually,"
Would you be willing to try a product like this? "Leave it to Japanese ingenuity to take Febreeze, long a staple of stoned, slovenly domicile dwellers and Pig Pen wannabes, and t... more -
Vegetables attack !!! Salmonella Poisoning
Oh my God! We don't know where its coming from !!!
It's tomatoes .... no its.... peppers.... wait.....
Don't eat vegetables !!! Hysteria !!! Panic !!! Kill the plants before they kill us !!!
More than 1,000 people now have become ill from salmonella initially linked to raw tomatoes, a sobering milestone Wednesday that makes this the worst foodborne outbreak in at least a decade. Adding to the confusion, the government is warning certain people to avoid types of hot peppers, too.
But people at highest risk of severe illness from salmonella also should not eat raw jalapeno and serrano peppers, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged Wednesday. The most vulnerable are the elderly, people with weak immune systems and infants.
Perhaps there was some truth in that move "The Happening".
CDC food safety chief Dr. Robert Tauxe told The Associated Press:
“We are quite sure that neither tomatoes nor jalapenos explain the entire outbreak at this point. ... We’re presuming that both of them have caused illness.”Tauxe said. “But we really are working as hard and as fast as we can to sort out this complicated situation and protect the health of the American people.”
Added FDA food safety chief Dr. David Acheson: “It’s just been a spectacularly complicated and prolonged outbreak.”
The outbreak isn’t over, or even showing any sign of slowing, said Tauxe — with about 25 to 40 cases being a reported a day for weeks now, to a total of 1,017 known since the outbreak began on April 10.
Illnesses now have been reported in 41 states — and even four cases in Canada, although three of those people are believed to have been infected while traveling in the U.S. and the fourth is still being probed. Oh my God! We don't know where its coming from !!! It's tomatoes .... no its.... peppers.... wait..... ... more -

GoogleEarth gullibility plug-in shows Americans are more stupid than during Bush s...
A new Google.Earth overlay illustrates exactly how a majority of Americans will believe almost anything you tell them... So long as you say it's the truth or make it look flashy and quick, for an additional boost make it look like a reality based tv show... Put some poppy lyrics and voila instant fact. This has been the basis of political wranglings for years. The plain simple truth is most people just listen line up and laugh on command. Lately left leaning pundits have began a campaign to smear the words of neo-cons across the net, By portraying righties to be less intelligent than a boulder in a wet brown paper bag, on their own turf on sites like townhall.com as well as the few hundred other fair and balanced news blogs with the hopes of drawing a few people to see the more rational side of america. Just tell them it's the truth!

Drink up girls! You're addicted!
You probably started drinking before your mom, or at the very least your grandmother. On average, women born before 1944 started drinking at age 20, while those born after that started drinking at age 17.
Unfortunately, it’s not all champagne dreams and beergoggles. A new Washington University study is showing women born after 1944 have a greater risk for alcohol dependence than those born before that time.
