Sarah Palin on Fox News

[jenny-wildcat.livejournal.com]

This is exciting: Sarah Palin to be a Fox News Contributor (and I almost missed it on Yahoo's front page)

At first, I thought she was getting her own show, but she's just going to be a guest commentator from time to time (like on one segment of O'Reilly or on Hannity's Great American Panel).  I think I prefer this.  I don't know about you, but Huckabee's random "jamming out" with Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. isn't exactly endearing...

But yay for more Sarah! :)

Wow, no one saw this one coming. OH, WAIT.

Skewed China birthrate to leave 24 million men single by 2020.

BEIJING (AFP) – More than 24 million Chinese men of marrying age could find themselves without spouses in 2020, state media reported on Monday, citing a study that blamed sex-specific abortions as a major factor.

The study, by the government-backed Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, named the gender imbalance among newborns as the most serious demographic problem for the country's population of 1.3 billion, the Global Times said.

Rest of the story at the source link. The deafening decades-long silence of the women's rights international community on this issue is nothing short of morally reprehensible.
