Womack ,'The Message'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Um... what?
Egyptian husbands will soon be legally allowed to have sex with their dead wives - for up to six hours after their death.
The controversial new law is part of a raft of measures being introduced by the Islamist-dominated parliament.

Yeah, that part is worse.
It's the Daily Fail: I would be skeptical of the reporting.
Anyone else posted this link to Stephen Colbert's speech at the Time 100 Most Influential people banquet? It's quite awesome: [link]
I was particularly excited to meet David Koch earlier tonight because I have a Super PAC, Colbert Super PAC, and I am -- thank you, thank you -- and I am happy to announce Mr. Koch has pledged $5 million to my Super PAC.

Is the David H. Koch who gives money for Nova on PBS the same David Koch who's a right wing douchebag?
Yes.
That seems odd. Nova seems to be a reliable, scientific-based exploration of the world, and the Kochs seem to be the opposite of reliable and science-based.
edit: as it seems to me.
Yes but it makes them look good.
Makes the Kochs look good, you mean? A lot of people don't think it makes NOVA look all that good....
