Fight the Frump- Clothing Atrocities
2008-08-15 15:50:00 OK, Friends of Fussy, We have been fighting the frump for years months together. We have our black trousers slacks pants, we are curling our lashes (with a heated curler, no less!) and we threw out our muffin-top-lovin', low-rise jeans and thongs. Yet, sadly, our snarky delicate senses have been alerted to some repeated clothing disasters. This must be stopped! OH, The Atrocities of Clothing! What have we seen this week? AHHHHHH! I can't look long enough to describe the ugliness of that flip-flop. Help, my eyes are burning! I have no words for these atrocities! Now, we have a no-floppy T-shirt policy, am I right? Unless your T-shirt is made for a WOMAN, you must respect your rack, m'k? Black concert T-shirts? Throw those out with your old denim cutoffs! Yeesh! Oh. My. Goodness. What can I say? Flannel, Embroidery, and Nature Themes....Granny, back away from your closet. Gauchos will soon meet Ugg Boots in the Annals of Bad Trends. OH, THE HORRO...

Indonesia's Suharto dodges justice for widespread atrocities
2008-01-18 01:00:00 Indonesia endured decades of bloodshed during Suharto's dictatorship. Yet, in an era when ruthless leaders are increasingly being held accountable, he has eased comfortably into old age without so much as a day in court. The former dictator has been shielded since his May 1998 ouster by a graft-ridden legal system, government leaders who became wealthy during his 32-year rule and top military loyalists who want to clear his name. Concerns about his mental and physical health too have kept him from facing trial: A series of strokes in recent years have left Suharto with permanent brain damage and impaired speech. There is also a foreign hesitance to push justice in a fragile democracy that is a major U.S. ally in the fight against terrorism. Between 300,000 and 800,000 alleged communist sympathizers were killed during Suharto's bloody rise to power from 1965 to 1968, a spasm of violence led by the Indonesian army and conse...

Muslim Atrocities No News at All
2007-11-19 05:39:00 Unlike some 30 years ago, women in Yemen todaycover most of themselves from head to toe. Photograph by Eva SohlmanI get two or three requests a day from my readers who email me news items and ask me to write something about them in my blog. I'm sure some of you have read certain of my articles and wondered why they got written at all. Well, most likely a reader sent me a request; yes, I do requests. I try to accommodate as many as I can but items on Muslim atrocities no longer interest me. I am flattered at being asked but the problem is that one can only post so much of the same thing about honor killings, Muslim rape victims put in jail instead of the rapists, female genital mutilation every 10 seconds in Africa, innocent children purposely being blown up. (All these links are to news items not even a day or two old) It's getting stale. Everybody gets it: Muslims are ignorant, barbaric, primitive, vile, misogynistic, anti-modern goat-fukkers, OK we get it - we know. If...

"What if we chose to regard the 2,973 innocents killed in the atrocities of
2007-11-07 05:25:00 “What if we chose to regard the 2,973 innocents killed in the atrocities of 9/11 not as victims but as democratic martyrs, "sacrifices on the alter of freedom"? In other words, what if we decided that a certain baseline of vulnerability to terrorism is part of the price of the American idea?” - David Foster Wallace, "Just Asking," in "The American Idea," The Atlantic, Nov. 2007, p. 25.

In His Words: Giuliani on Torture
2007-10-27 12:39:00 Giuliani tries to play around with words to allow "aggressive questioning" (water-boarding, sleep deprivation etc.) but not "torturing& Uuuh.... how do you know someone is a terrorist before he confessed? Aaah, yes, torture, the solution for security and peace. His argument on sleep-deprivation was also completely absurd, there is a huge difference between voluntary sleep-deprivation and forced sleep-deprivation.

Silence of democratic western nations at Israel's atrocities.
2007-05-26 16:03:00 For the western media it is arrest; by objective standards it is kidnapping. On Thursday, the Israeli army kidnapped 33 Hamas leaders, including the Palestinian education minister, three MPs and at least seven mayors, because those abducted had ?supported the firing of rockets? into Israel. The kidnappings came in the wake of several weeks of Israeli air strikes on the Gaza strip, killing 37 people, including 12 civilians.Last June, Israel kidnapped 60 Palestinian leaders, including eight cabinet ministers and 21 lawmakers, many of whom are still in Israeli prisons.

Animal Atrocities - be Sensitive to Animals
0000-00-00 00:00:00 Posted on 04/01/2008in India people by and large are apathetic to the preservation and well being of animals either domestic or wild.
