Fernandez: Why I defend migrant workers - (USA)
Fernandez: Why I defend migrant workers “Migrants are human beings. They have the same rights as all of us,” so said Irene Fernandez when asked why she has dedicated her life to helping foreign workers whom Malaysians have invited into our country, and for some, into our homes. “They are here for the good life we have and we have a responsibility to protect them while they are in our country. We are accountable for what we do to them. “Without them, we would not have the same economic growth w

Gates of Vienna News Feed 11/26/2008 - (USA)
There has been a spot of trouble in Egypt recently with the Coptic (Christian) minority — it seems these uppity infidels tried to build a church. The nerve!I’ll blog on the story if I get a chance. In the meantime, there are several articles in the North Africa section about the Copts.Thanks to C. Cantoni, Fjordman, Insubria, JD, TB, and all the other tipsters who sent these in.

20 Questions for Your Congressman - (USA)
20 Questions for Your Congressman by Robert Tracinski The Intellectual Activist Aug 10, 2009 The smear against small-government advocates who have confronted their congressmen at town hall meetings is that they are an "angry mob" who just want to shout down advocates of Obama's health-care bill. In fact, these protesters have come to the meetings to ask some tough questions—questions that should have been asked by the mainstream media. So when you head of

Cash For Clunkers Hijacked? - (USA)
By Marcus Stern and Jake Bernstein/ ProPublica To supporters, the "cash for clunkers" program miraculously jolted the moribund car market back to life, engendering hopes that it might help revive the broader U.S. economy. Skeptics saw it differently: The automotive industry had hijacked an environmental bill and turned it into a bailout for itself with the help of the Obama administration and a Congress besotted with wishful thinking and a hair-trigger for stimulus spending. Both view

Tim Unwise - (USA)
Tim Wise: opposed to Albanian folk music and tofu Over on alternet.org, a website occupying a place on the political spectrum a bit to the left of Huffington Post, there’s an article that has been generating a bit of controversy. Titled rather provocatively “Enough of ‘Barbituate’ Left Cynicism, Obama Is a Victory over White Supremacy,” it is a reproach to those reprobates like me, Alexander Cockburn, Paul Street and others who tend to regard the Obama presidency as Bill Clinton’s 3rd term.

RUNNING WITH THE PACK - (USA)
A lot of my favourite bloggers have been talking about getting puppies and the whole pet for Christmas thing. I'm a little late to the party but I thought I'd show up anyway. Raised by Wolves has an excellent piece on the kind of people who buy puppies from retailers. It's typically thoughtful and thorough. The gang at Pet Connection have put up more than one article about pet shops and why everybody should give them a pass, as well as one about how to recognize a good breeder. The well-na

Defining Programmatic Access to Healthcare for People with Disabilities - (USA)

NONE DARE CALL IT NEWS COVERAGE - (USA)
NONE DARE CALL IT NEWS COVERAGE By Barry Rubin I realized something important when reading a relatively marginal feature story from the Associated Press. It shows us that Palestinians don’t really exist as a society but only as a set of victims. By definition, all—or to be fair, almost all, of their problems are said to come from Israel. Yet since the continuation of the conflict and their difficult situation comes first and foremost from within Palestinian politics and society, this kind

Dear International Living Reader, Lee and Peg Carper aren’t your typical retired couple. Not by a long shot. For one thing, they’re younger than most retirees--he’s 56 and she’s 53. They don’t golf or bridge; they don’t take art lessons or baby-sit grandkids. They don’t read th

When it comes to gays and lesbians, children understand more than you think - (USA)
crossposted on Holy Bullies and Headless Monsters On the pages of One News Now and other religious right publications, we are taking a backseat as they all combine their "talents" with other conservatives to kill President Obama's plan for health care reform. So I decided to get on youtube for something appropriately pro-lgbt. I found something good from a Dutch television show in which children are questioned about gays and lesbians. It's sure to make the religious right in America go

Are There Too Many Women in Medicine? - (USA)
Imagine being asked this question at a job interview, as a male or female candidate. To answer ‘yes’ is to acknowledge that there are more female than male doctors, and to assume that such a disparity is detrimental to medical education, clinical practice and research. Consider this question from the perspective of clinical students in their penultimate year of undergraduate study, with job applications imminent; approaching the crossroad between education and employment. This is the position

Grand Rounds, Vol. 5.47 - Cost Containment In Healthcare - (USA)
Critics of the Obama health (insurance) reform plan have been formally served notice that they are under observation, and should they be caught making obvious errors in describing the proposed plan - or worse, they are detected emanating piscatorial odors - they are likely to be reported directly to certain concerned individuals at the White House (Hi, Linda!), who will take steps to correct such wrong-thinking. So, as he embarks on this week’s edition of Grand Rounds, DrRich would like to welco

How to Maintain Weight Loss, Week in Week - (USA)
by Rowena French It is often said the most successful weight loss programs are the ones where you ‘finish the way you start’ but doing this can be quite a challenge. We always start new health programs on a ‘high’ with great intentions and plenty of enthusiasm but as we continue our goals for weight loss week in week out can seem more difficult to achieve and the effort this requires, more demanding. We know however that despite this predictable drop in commitment and drive, there are reliable
