Carroll County, New Hampshire jail guards are to take Spanish lessons to communicate with prisoners who say they can't speak English.

The black woman's body is being used to promote the "imperialist, white supremacist, patriarchal structure," author and black intellectual bell hooks tells students at Northwestern University. She left out the key part, though, which Louis Farrakhan underscored this week. hooks (she does not NEED to capitalize her name) also shared some pentrating analysis on Condi Rice, the U.S. Secretary of State. According to The Daily Northwestern: "...she said Condoleezza Rice is another example of exploitation because she was “feminized” after becoming Secretary of State. hooks joked that Rice was probably instructed to wear Chanel suits and smile more."

The Chicago suburb of Crystal Lake has declined to make its municipal waters available for the Gay Games rowing competition, prompting a Gay Games board member to lament the town's "homophobia.' A municipal corporation is entirely within its legal rights to decline to host an event predicated on promotion of an alternative form of sexuality. That's not bigotry, it's a judgement, with which some gays will obviously not agree. Even more to the point: why should there even be a Gay Games? Are they feeling as handicapped as those in the Special Olympics? If gays really want mainstream acceptance, they should simply compete in the real Olympics. In fact, I believe some recently did.

Meanwhile Willamette Week, Portland's alternative weekly, is really jazzed that several local spots have made it into national online compendiums of public restrooms and outdoor spots for strangers to have gay sex. Kinda pathetic, actually. But then, they have their demographic to which to pander.

Weapons aren't allowed on airplanes or in schools in Canada, but the Supreme Court has decided orthodox Sikh students can wear their traditional daggers, called kirpans, to school. The decision opens the legal door for other traditional religious weaponry in schools. If the students can have their kirpans and what all, can't the border guards have guns? Seek, and ye shall receive. The country's new "Conservative Party" administration predicts that border guards WILL be armed, in no more than about four scant years.

Finally, some good news. Fed-up conservatives are plotting revolution in NoCal's moonbattiest municipality, Arcata. They want to take back the City Council. Amen, brothers and sisters. Now work it.
