The title of the post suggests there is only three
news pieces but I've managed to slip in a fourth for fun. If you read on my dear non-existent readers you will discover that blondes aren't the only ones having fun...
More single Aussie men would prefer to date a brunette [29.7%] then a blone [ 14.8%] or redhead [11.03%], according to a new survery figures... Even then, not just any blond will do - 14.21 per cent are looking for a "dark blonde"... But preferences don't stop at hair colour, with the colour of a woman's eyes playing a part in their chances of finding love [25.8% of guys want blue-eyes while 20.6% want green]... The survery - of 1.6 million male and female members on dating website Match.com - found 86 per cent of people were looking for a serious relationship, 6 per cent were interested in fun and 8 per cent were not open to dating right now...

In some parts of the world, women are forced to cover their whole bodies with burqas -- is that next? I didn't think that Canada would be so puritanical."

Ironically the whole being sexist bit somehow goes against the "battle of equality between men and women" according to officials. Note that the mX news piece didn't have the complete quote by Anderson. It was taken from
UsMagazine.com. Now normally I'd only look at three pieces from mX but this was on the same page...
The UK immigration minister has ruled out a ban on wearing the burqa in public, saing it would be "rather un-British"... as it goes against the UKs "tolerant and mutually respectful society". His comments came despite more than two-thirds of British voters saying they favoured a ban on full-veils in a poll. French lawmakers voted almost unanimously to ban the burqa.

And it seems like there are some
Aussies who also want to ban it. There are times when a
living contradiction is necessary. And other times we just need to shake hands...

I'd say those scientists need to get out more but I play with toy soldiers for a hobby...
