Wattup in the World - 23rd November

Brazil leads the way
Just for today, I'll eat my words regarding Catholic intolerance.

This can only be good
France's Far Right finds it hard to get their candidate on the ballot.

An English opinion on Ms. Royal's rise
Something like the equivalent of 'Ms. Royal can go F*** herself if she thinks she'll change anything!'. Ahhh the English and their irrational fear of France...

The cold war is back
Russian espionage undergoes something of a renaissance with sushi poisonings and "blacklists". They're even spying on Canada!

Things not to carry while you're flying
$80,000 in cash, data about US nuclear power plants, suitcase bomb instructions, a commemorative edition of a newspaper dated September 11, 2002, and a hand-written threatening note.

Un-Islamic ringtones

Funnily enough, it's Koranic ringtones that are being labelled Un-Islamic (wonder if Britney Spears would be an acceptable alternative??) .

South Asian parents: deadlier than genital herpes

Non-judgmental BBC blog post on a whole heap of South Asian attitudes towards sex in the UK. Particularly amusing (in a dark, only-I-would-find-this-amusing kind of way) was the story of an asian girl who didn't want to risk getting caught in possession of contraceptives by her parents, so she just had unsafe sex instead. Now..she has genital herpes. In retrospect the tradeoff probably wasn't really worth it was it??

And a links that are all the better for not having detailed captions:

Couldn't have said it better myself


Not so wild and 'yahoo'-ish anymore
