'Wicked' woman who ruined a marriage by crying rape jailed for four months

Story here. Excerpt:

'A woman whose false rape allegation led to the collapse of her victim’s marriage has been jailed for four months after a judge branded her ‘wicked’.

Tracey Winfield, 21, claimed she had been held down in a park by her former boyfriend Richard Peacock while his friend Dean Frasier raped her.
...
The pair, both innocent, were forced to undergo medical examinations and give intimate samples before being released on bail.
...
Mr Rowe said Winfield and Mr Peacock had a troubled three-year relationship, and she had made 14 allegations to police about him.

Most of these were not taken further - although Mr Peacock was twice convicted of public order offences in 2006 as a result of them.'

UK: Plans to let victims of domestic abuse get away with murder under way

Outstanding article by Erin Pizzey:

"Yesterday, Ms Harman — who, worryingly, is acting Prime Minister during Gordon Brown’s summer holiday — set out new proposals that may lead to a change in the law in cases of murder involving domestic violence.

Effectively, what Harman and the ultra-feminist lobby want is a licence for women to kill.

If this plan is enacted, we will no longer have absolute justice in this country. Instead, our courts will have to use a carefully calibrated measure of female grievance against which to judge the darkest of all crimes.

The absurdity of the Harman position is the pretence that women in a violent relationship have no alternative but to kill their partners."

‘Pre-Alzheimer’s’ rising, especially in men

Article here. Excerpt:

'CHICAGO - A milder type of mental decline that often precedes Alzheimer’s disease is alarmingly more common than has been believed, and in men more than women, doctors reported Monday.

Nearly a million older Americans slide from normal memory into mild impairment each year, researchers estimate, based on a Mayo Clinic study of Minnesota residents.
...
Men were nearly twice as likely as women to develop it. That’s a surprise, because some studies have found more women with Alzheimer’s than men. But there may be a simple explanation: Even though more men may be impaired, women outlive them and therefore have more time to develop full-blown dementia.'

Minnie Driver: Her baby's father is unimportant

Article here. Excerpt:

"Minnie Driver has revealed that she has no plans to include her baby's father at any time during the birth.

"I'm not married and I don't know if I'll stay with the guy," she told the New York Post.

"My mum and aunt Serena will be with me, as will my best friends, a midwife and a yoga teacher. And I'll be the wailing monster at the centre.

"It's great to be an independent creature. Today you don't need a man any more. In the old days, a baby without marriage and people would put you out. I'm very into feeling this female thing."

Do you see what women are really all about? Selfish, deluded and arrogant. I wonder how this guy feels about being treated and referred too in this manner? Don't suppose it matters since he's man. Never trust women ever.

"Voted one of TBS's funniest commercials of 2006"

Watch it here. First time I had ever seen it. Now bear in mind, this is a commercial from a governmental authority. And it has no significant character interaction except just this: an old woman with a walker-stick kicks a man square in the groin for the crime of watering his lawn on an off-day.

Any excuse to show a man getting kicked in the groin seems acceptable, doesn't it? What's not important is the message, goes the ad-maker's approach. All that matters is the great laugh the viewer gets from watching a man sexually assaulted by a woman. Now let's see the opposite roles played out on the same commercial and what votes it gets. And I wonder, who did the voting?

'The Villains of Victimhood'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Besides revealing an inflated view of their own organization, the superhero analogy demonstrates the destructive attitude dominating feminism today. It is the attitude that everyone is against women, out to get them. To feminists, women must take on the entire world. They must save everyone, even sometimes from themselves. Like Superwoman, these feminists are constantly fearful that they will find an enemy, like sexism, around every corner. The media: Sexist. Fewer women in math and sciences: Sexism. Fewer female elected officials: Sexism.'

Women try to open airplane door during flight

Story here. I wonder what degree of a sense of entitlement and presumption of immunity to account for activities is necessary for one to get to this point without being a clinical sociopath? Excerpt:

'A plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Germany after two British women tried to open a cabin door mid-flight, police have said.

The women, aged 26 and 27, were drinking heavily and had to be held in their seats by security staff until the plane landed in Frankfurt.

They were arrested and released after two hours, Frankfurt police said.
...
She said they had started to swear at and threaten staff who refused to sell them any more alcohol from the bar.
...
"Their language was totally unacceptable, as was their behaviour. They were very abusive and threatening," the spokeswoman said.'

...
The XL Airways spokeswoman said the airline was considering taking legal action against the woman.

Mr Scherer said police were deciding whether to press charges, adding that the pair could also be fined or forced to pay compensation.'

Ottawa woman sentenced for manslaughter but judge gushes with sympathy

Story here. Excerpt:

'In handing down the sentence, Ontario Superior Court Justice Robert Maranger said that the homicide of Jack Craig was "a very cruel, monstrous act committed by what appears to be a fundamentally decent person.

"I am very sympathetic to Mrs. Craig," he said. "I have compassion for Mrs. Craig."

But he said the conditional sentence of two years less a day, to be served in the community, which was sought by Mrs. Craig's defence lawyers, was "clearly inappropriate given the brutality of the act."'

My read is this: He ran out of money so she murdered him, figuring she could claim abusiveness and that would win her sympathy and community support, minus jail time. Also, no costly divorce to deal with, either. "Hey, what's to lose?" she thought, and went looking for a good, sharp knife.

"Fighting for his country; fighting against Illinois"

Story here. Excerpt:

'When the I-Team received an email from Army Sergeant Joshua Hinkle a few weeks ago, it first caught our attention because it was sent from Camp Bucca in Iraq.

The soldier wrote that he was suffering a great injustice: the state of Illinois, he claimed, had cleaned out his entire bank account for child support.

"They went into my bank account and they took it, they took it down to the penny," said Hinkle, who's with the Illinois National Guard.
...
Most puzzling is what happened to all that money the state seized from his account in June. The boy's mother said she hasn't seen any of it.'

Record amount collected for Illinois children for fourth consecutive year

Press release here. Excerpt:

'CHICAGO – Governor Rod R. Blagojevich today announced that for the fourth consecutive year, the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) has collected a record amount of child support for Illinois children. The $1.33 billion collected for custodial parents during FY08 is a more than 8 percent increase over the $1.22 collected during FY07. Success is due primarily to innovative programs geared toward holding non-custodial parents accountable.
...
HFS is also working with Secretary of State Jesse White’s office in a new effort to suspend driver’s licenses for parents who are not meeting their child support obligations. Almost $5 million in child support has been collected for families since the program started in January.'

UK: Undergrad male enrollment at 35%

Research shows women outnumbering men by 13 to one in some areas. One in ten primary schools has no male teachers. In some areas, fewer than 10 per cent of primary teachers are men.

Figures from the most recent teacher-training intake show there are 26,217 women compared to just 9,375 men. At primary level, the difference is more marked, with 2,301 men compared to 14,183 women."

It is the fiercest and most fearless defence of men, fatherhood and ultimately the family I have read in many years.
