Injured Yourself While Having Sex? You're Not Alone

23 million Britons have injured themselves while caught up in the act of passion.

So, if half of the adult population of Britain has experienced calamity-ridden sex, it stands to reason that we know a few people

with tales of their own. Thus, we asked around and drew together a few stories of how the act of love can go horribly wrong.

(Since hurting yourself while doing the nasty is not something most folks want to own up to, we're sticking to initials.)

Four Colossal Holes in the Theory of Man-Made Global Warming
(Read WP posts from John Hawkins) | (Read MT posts from John Hawkins)

Climate change has been around as long as the earth:

However, the reality is far different, as even the New York Times has been willing to admit:

In October, Dr. (Don) Easterbrook made similar points at the geological society meeting in Philadelphia. He hotly disputed Mr. Gore's claim that "our civilization has never experienced any environmental shift remotely similar to this" threatened change.

Nonsense, Dr. Easterbrook told the crowded session. He flashed a slide that showed temperature trends for the past 15,000 years.

On Islam and the Crusades

Often, when I am criticizing crimes inspired by Islamic extremism, I am interrupted by the remark that Christianity was once culpable of similar abuses. That Christianity may have been intolerant in the past, however, does not make criticisms of Islam’s present-day intolerance any less valid. Also, Islamic intolerance is an immediate danger, whereas Christian intolerance is generally a historical phenomenon and no longer a threat to civilization. And Christendom’s crimes were recorded by Christians themselves—a stark contrast to our politically correct climate, in which many, especially Muslims, are reluctant to criticize Islam.

In December 2008, Boris Johnson, mayor of London, presented a biased BBC program on the Crusades that laid the blame for them entirely on Christians.

However, it failed to note that the Crusades were a reaction against over 300 years of jihad and persecution of Eastern Christians,

Reminding Caesar of God’s Existence

clipper's remarks: Beginning at a meeting in New York in late September, Christian leaders came together across the historic lines of ecclesial difference — Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox Christians — to bear witness to three foundational principles of justice and the common good: (1) the sanctity of human life in all stages and conditions; (2) the dignity of marriage as the conjugal union of husband and wife; and (3) religious liberty and freedom of conscience.

Reminding Caesar of God’s Existence

Right before Thankgiving, a group of Christians held a press conference in Washington announcing that “

because we honor justice and the common good, we will not comply with any edict that purports to compel our institutions to participate in abortions, embryo-destructive research, assisted suicide and euthanasia, or any other anti-life act; nor will we bend to any rule purporting to force us to bless immoral sexual partnerships, treat them as marriages or the equivalent, or refrain from proclaiming the truth, as we know it, about morality and immorality and marriage and the family.”

Their Manhattan Declaration concluded: “We will fully and ungrudgingly render to Caesar what is Caesar’s. But under no circumstances will we render to Caesar what is God’s.”

One of the declaration’s co-authors, Princeton professor Robert P. George, talked to National Review Online’s Kathryn Jean Lopez over the holiday about the statement and the future.

30 Secrets Your Waiter Will Never Tell You

Two dozen servers reveal the truth about what goes on behind the kitchen doors.

What We Lie About

1. We’re not allowed to tell our customers we don’t like a dish. So if you ask your server how something is and she says, “It’s one of our most popular dishes,” chances are she doesn’t like it.

—Waitress at a well-known pizza chain

2. On Christmas Day, when people ask why I’m there, I might say, “My sister’s been in the hospital,” or, “My brother’s off to war, so we’re celebrating when he gets back.” Then I rake in the tips.

—Chris, a New York City waiter and the founder of

4. If someone orders a frozen drink that’s annoying to make, I’ll say, “Oh, we’re out. Sorry!” when really I just don’t want to make it. But if you order water instead of another drink, suddenly we do have what you originally wanted because I don’t want to lose your drink on the bill.

Going Rogue – Midnightblue Review

It is no wonder the left hate her – her entire career has unraveled every radical feminist meme about women. She is a loving wife, protective mother, accomplished politician, staunch environmentalist, basketball state champ, beauty contestant and college graduate. She accomplishing this with the application of hard work, not whining. She is a role model and standard bearer for a revolutionary brand of feminism – one that actually benefits women by empowering them, not victimizes them. The NOW flavored victimization (aka modern day feminism) colors every thought, word and action of its supporters. In truth, when faced with undeniable evidence that their entire life philosophy is backwards and just plain wrong – they flipping lose it and demonize the individual who uncovers their falsehoods – Sarah Palin. The old fashioned feminists are spinning in their graves as they never believed they were a victim - simply the best PERSON for the job

'Seven-year-old Picasso' Kieron sells his art for £17,000... in 14 minutes

'Seven-year-old Picasso' Kieron sells his art for £17,000... in 14 minutes

A boy of seven has been hailed a genius after selling his paintings for £17,000 in just 14 minutes.

Buyers from as far afield as Japan and Canada paid more than £1,000 each to buy one of Kieron Williamson's 16 watercolours, oils and pastels of Norfolk landscapes.

It follows a sealed bid auction of his work this summer, when 19 of his paintings were sold for £14,000.

Adrian Hill, who runs the Picturecraft gallery in Kieron's home town of Holt, where the sale took place, said: 'He is red-hot. The last child artist in this bracket was Picasso.'

Kieron, whose 44-year-old father Keith is an art dealer, said: 'It's excellent. I was only expecting one or two to sell. Painting is my favourite hobby - but I like football as well.'

Until last year he showed no particular interest or ability in art, but he was inspired to take up pencil and paintbrush by a holiday in Devon and Cornwall. It proved a revelation.
