Protesters attack the whaling ship...

-- WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- Two activists attacked a Japanese whaling ship with a bottle of acid and a smoke bomb Friday, slightly injuring two crew members after the vessel helped rescue the protesters from the icy Ross Sea off Antarctica, officials said.

Another proud moment in eco-warrior history.

Damn that scary Stephen Harper.

Killer Karla

This is as much as I have to say about this homicidal, self-involved piece of shit.

She murdered her own sister. Then she murdered two other families' daughters. The only upside here is that this must be driving Paul Bernardo crazy.

Mahaffy was only 14 when she was abducted, tortured and murdered in 1991. Her body was then dismembered, weighted down with concrete and thrown into a lake.

One year later, Bernardo and his then-wife Homolka kidnapped French, 15, before raping, torturing and killing her. They videotaped the brutal crime, as they had done with Mahaffy.

The question is, "Why should Killer Karla get to have a "happily ever after"?" And don't talk to me about paying her debt to society... you can't "pay back a life."

How about a private member's bill to sterilise anyone convicted of murdering a child?

Make it retroactive.

Hey Steffi... what about the percentage of transgendered members... ah, candidates... in the upcoming elections?

In fact, while you're at it, why not just go all in... and even out all the lopsided percentages?

Dion's campaign strategists contend that declaring certain ridings off-limits to men at the outset will ultimately be fairer to all concerned. Still, they acknowledge that the measure is bound to be controversial.

"We're going to pay some price," Gerard Kennedy said.

However, Kennedy said the party's dismal record in recruiting women in the past "justifies disappointing some and requiring accommodations from others.

Const. Zahara, an eight-year force veteran who has served only in Nova Scotia, was handed a conditional discharge Wednesday for careless use of a firearm. She was put on probation for a year and must not possess weapons, except at work, for two years.

UPDATE: Young Offenders Act kicks in

So I have to censor this murderer's name and picture.

The teen, who can no longer be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, turned himself in early Friday morning.

Just over 12 hours earlier, Toronto police Homicide Det. Graham Gibson had released the youth's name and photo, after getting a judge's order to do so.

**********

I don't get it... why is the Liberal Party opposed to cracking down on the "worst of the worst" violent young offenders?

Police are hunting for a 14-year-old boy, wanted in the shooting of Kemar Long-Thompson who was killed in the city's far east end Sunday while attending a birthday party for his 16-year-old cousin.

In a move reserved for the most serious of crimes, homicide officers were granted judicial authorization to identify Xxxxx "Xxxxx" Xxxxxxx for five days in order to seek help from the public, Det. Graham Gibson said at a press conference at police headquarters this afternoon.

BACKGROUND: The murder of Kemar Long-Thompson.

This is precisely the type of offender the Conservatives proposed legislation is set to target... murderers and violent thugs who slip through under the current insanely ineffectual Young offenders Act.

Why are Stephane Dion and the Liberals so opposed?

The highest bidder wins

The Iraqi government is a lot like the Liberal Party... the rot is so deep, you don't know where to stop cutting...

US and Iraqi forces in Baghdad have arrested the deputy health minister during a raid at his offices. The minister, Hakim al-Zamili, is a key member of the political group led by radical Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr.

He is accused of aiding Shia militiamen and using ambulances to move weapons, a ministry source told the BBC.

That, unfortunately, is simply the Middle East... where a Garth Turncoat is the rule and not the exception.

Mohawk Nation piles on Dirty Joos

Guess who has equal billing at the University of Toronto's... END ISRAELI APARTHEID WEEK?

It's the same old bunch of professional native protestors from Turtle Island... authors of such paranoid parables as, "Preparing for Invasion: A Guide to Current Threats Against the Mohawk Nation."

The Aboriginals even provide a somewhat jarring image of one of their solutions to oppression... which, to no one's surprise, is the same solution their Palestinian brothers are currently employing... albeit, against their Muslim brothers, at the moment.

Looking at the picture it's hard to imagine why the government is having such difficulty "negotiating" aboriginal land claims... I'm sure the clan mothers have some perfectly good explanation, for equipping clan kiddies with assault rifles.

So drop on in to the University of Toronto and celebrate Israeli Apartheid Week.

Dalton's crapping his pants

**********
UPDATE: Get out the diapers.

NDP candidate Paul Ferriera -- who parlayed opposition to the 25% pay hike for MPPs and support for a $10 minimum wage into a strong campaign theme -- delivered a stunning blow to the ruling Dalton McGuinty Liberals in the York South-Weston byelection last night.

**********

Hey... nice to know that sometimes, the chickens DO come home to roost.

In York South-Weston, the New Democrats have tapped into a deep vein of anger over the 25-per-cent pay rise the McGuinty government awarded MPPs just before Christmas.

Their increase has become entangled with the province's minimum wage, which rose 25 cents to $8 an hour on Feb. 1.

"If politicians can give themselves a 25-per-cent raise and the Premier himself can take $40,000 into his own back pocket four days before Christmas, then surely the lowest paid working people deserve a bigger raise as well," said Paul Ferreira.

In another textbook for 12 and 13 year olds, dated 2004/2005, the author allegedly says that a Koranic verse, which talks of turning people into monkeys and pigs, is about Jews and Christians.

The author quotes an early Islamic scholar as saying: "The monkeys are the Jews. And the pigs, they are the Christian infidels at Jesus's table."

The head insisted pupils were never taught religious hatred or intolerance.

Actually... they're not being taught anything at all.

Global Ear-Warming

I had thought the politicians and bureaucrats -- not the scientists, mind you -- who write up the scary summary to the infamous IPCC report might have a little bit of a problem with misleading the public.

You know, especially after the scientists involved complained publicly that their work was being misrepresented.

In June 1996, Dr. Frederick Seitz, past-president of the National Academy of Sciences and president emeritus of Rockefeller University, wrote with regard to the 1995 IPCC report: "I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report."

He continued: "This report is not what it appears to be -- it is not the version approved by the contributing scientists listed on the title page."

I had foolishly imagined that somebody's ears would be burning.

Apparently though, much like abandoning newborn babies in the middle of a prairie winter... there is no such thing as shame anymore.

And no such thing as truth.

Attacking the Net

Who is attacking the Internet?

-- WASHINGTON -- Hackers briefly overwhelmed at least three of the 13 computers that help manage global computer traffic Tuesday in one of the most significant attacks against the Internet since 2002.

The attacks appeared to target UltraDNS, the company that operates servers managing traffic for websites ending in "org" and some other suffixes, experts said.

Among the targeted "root" servers that manage global Internet traffic were ones operated by the U.S. Defense Department and the Internet's primary oversight body.

"Everybody had expected frankly that maybe Mr. Turner would join the Green party. He was certainly close to Elizabeth May, the Green party leader, and had flirted with them for some time," Fife said.

Not sure Garth thought this all the way through... think of all the attention he could have focused on himself if he had just defected to Hamas.

UPDATE: Violating his own principles

Some will wonder if the defecting Liberal should now go back to the people of his riding and have his decision ratified.

I would say yes.

They should sit in Parliament as they were elected. If they decide to change parties, they should go and get re-elected.

My favourite moment came when Turner - asked, rhetorically, what his decision meant for his oft-stated belief that floor-crossers should face the voters in a by-election.

"I didn't leave my party," he explained; "my party left me."

Ah. Original and persuasive! You know what this means, don't you. The entire Conservative caucus having crossed the floor to get away from Garth, they will now have to face by-elections.

In the end, what exactly do they deliver?

-- And here's Satel on what she learned working on mental health issues during a Capitol Hill fellowship:

My Hill experience gave me a startling insight: Liberals and conservatives seemed to have mirror-image approaches to paternalism. Liberals made intrusive laws for the competent while conservatives preferred to rely on individuals to make their own decisions.

Conversely, conservatives preferred intrusive laws for the incompetent to whom liberals applied a hands-off policy.

Hadn't quite thought of it that way...

Funny though, the consistent inconsistency of the elastic left... as it hand-tailors supposed principles to grease the one-size-fits-all nanny state mentality.

Liberals were comfortable with public health paternalism: intrusive nonsmoking laws, taxes on unhealthy products, strict risk-averse EPA and FDA regulations...

...yet, when a person was incoherent, defecating in the streets, or freezing a limb off in the park, then -- and only then -- did the principles of autonomy apply.
