On a Happier Note...
The first bisexual congresswoman was elected in Arizona. I hope she can do some good there.

Another View...
Here is a link to another opinion on the JONAH trial case. They argue that the defendants were just trying to help the plaintiffs be free of "unwanted" sexual desires. Perhaps if these young men had not been verbally and sexually abused, as they claim to have been, by these "counselors", I would be more open to this argument.

JONAH
Counselors for a website called JONAH, "Jews Offering New Alternatives for Healing", are being sued for claiming to make gay teens straight. The plaintiffs are claiming that not only did the therapy not work, it made them more depressed and anxious. Also the defendants claimed that homosexuality was a "mental disorder" which is a notion that has been rejected by the American Psychiatric Association for decades now. These people are horrible scam artists and this case will hopefully show them and others like them that they can be held accountable for their actions.

Holiday Travel
As someone who is traveling over the Christmas holidays, I am paying close attention to air travel news. The airlines are looking forward to good weather for the week and are ready to fly even though flights are down 3% this week. This is due to higher prices and less flights. Keeping my fingers crossed for good weather on the 20th of December, when i have to fly to Indiana.

Most people now know that the head of the CIA, David Petraeus, recently resigned due to an affair with a woman named Paula Broadwell. While there are varying opinions, most sources seem to blame Broadwell for the affair. They seem to take pity on Petraeus, treating him like a victim, while they treat Paula Broadwell like a home wrecker. i think this is completely unfair. The media has some serious double standards.

Super Earth
Scientists have discovered a planet
that could be the next earth! It is the first planet we have discovered to be in the "sweet spot" for life. I think we can all agree we should just move half the earth's population over there and see what happens.

South Korea is going to build a crazy city and is is going to cost billions. It is supposedly to attract tourists but we'll see. Even if it is a waste it still looks awesome.
