Story here. Excerpt:

'Charles Vallance, the boy's father, said he was unable to explain to his son what he had done.

"He knows nothing about sex," Vallance said. "There's no way to explain what he's been written up for. He knows it as playing around. He doesn't know it as anything sexual at all."

The incident was described as "sexual harassment" on the school form.
...
The incident will be included in the boy's file while he remains at Lincolnshire, but Mowen said those files do not follow students when they move on to middle school.'

THIS ABOUT SUMS IT UP: Washington County Public Schools spokeswoman Carol Mowen described the incident as a "learning opportunity."

Ed. note: This is a different story than the one posted on Dec. 10 regarding the boy accused of "sexual harassment" for hugging a teacher's aide.

Article here. Excerpt:

"Michael Nifong, the prosecutor handling the Duke lacrosse rape case, may single-handedly cause a reconsideration of ‘absolute prosecutorial immunity,’ the legal doctrine by which certain acts of a prosecuting attorney are literally immune from lawsuits or criminal charges."

"People have tried to have Nifong sanctioned on a state and local level. To date, the North Carolina State Bar Association has received at least 17 complaints about Nifong. Because such complaints become public only when copied to the governor or attorney general, there may be many more."

"The 26-year-old twins work as teachers at the same California high school. And they're both facing felony charges as a result of an illicit sexual relationship with a female student. According to Riverside County sheriff's investigators, Franca ... had a sexual relationship with the underage girl, for which she was arrested yesterday and charged with lewd acts with a minor. While Antonia was not hit with a sex crime, she was charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor because she was allegedly aware of her sister's involvement with the girl. As so-called mandatory reporters, California teachers are required by law to report instances of child abuse or neglect."

Excerpt:
"A preliminary autopsy report on a 2-year-old Pittsburg child who died two weeks ago found that the girl's foster mother regularly withheld food and liquid as an ongoing form of discipline."

"Deonna Green, who would have turned three on Jan. 2, died from sodium bicarbonate intoxication from eating baking soda."

"Pittsburg police are investigating Green's death as a possible child neglect case."

Possible child neglect case??????

Story here. Excerpt:

"A 32-year-old female teacher from Parker, Colo., has been arrested and accused of a sexual relationship with a male high school student on a football trip to Glenwood Springs, Colo."

"The arrest affidavit alleges that the assault happened in Esson's hotel room as her two young children and a teenage babysitter were asleep in the same room."

'Swedish men are less intelligent, lonelier and fatter than their female counterparts. Boys have fallen way behind in school, and there are more women than men studying some traditionally male university subjects.'

MSN has done it again, ladies and gentlemen.

Ginger Crowel and Laurie Sandel (both of whom, not surprisingly, are women) churn out the usual misandrist literature over a holiday via MSN Lifestyle. While it is commendable for them to have a 'mens lifestyle' set of pages for men as they do for women, the content is less than reassuring. Assuming that all men do nothing but sit on the couch and watch football until the 23rd of December, we have been given the Men's Guide to Lazy Online Holiday Shopping, and assuming that we aren't capable of doing our own thinking, we have been given the ubiquitous 27 Laws of Shopping for Women, including the natural 'men are dogs' reference:

'27. Perform due diligence. Next time your girlfriend is paging through a magazine, listen to her instead of nodding vacantly. Ask to see the item she's drooling over. Make a mental note. Fetch.'

Smelling blood in the water, they close in for the kill. By 2030, I predict you will have a really hard time finding a male scientist anywhere in America who is not at least 50 years old.

Article here. Excerpt:

'Women do better, [Dr. Madeline Heilman] said, in environments where they are judged on grants obtained, prizes won, findings cited by other experts, or other explicit criteria, rather than on whether they are, say, “cutting edge.” “There has to be very little room for ambiguity,” Dr. Heilman said. “Otherwise, expectations swoop in to fill the vacuum.”'

Translation: Trucking grants and awards to women over men is what must be done in the name of their self-esteem and of course, "equality". Accomplishments be damned!

Here is a holiday story that shows how important fathers were and still are. Hope you enjoy it. Starts with:

1881 Christmas Story

Pa never had much compassion for the lazy or those who squandered their means and then never had enough for the necessities. But for those who were genuinely in need, his heart was as big as all outdoors. It was from him that I learned the greatest joy in life comes from giving, not from receiving.

This recent article demonstrates Sommers continued devotion towards the empowerment of boys.

“Masculinity with morals is constructive,” Ms. Sommers averred. “Without morals it is dangerous. In the healthy form, boys are helpful, achieving and protective. They sublimate their aggression into sports and other activities. Efforts to make them more like girls with dolls won’t work.”

Story here. Excerpt:

"INDIAN husbands are becoming victims of an anti-dowry law which is being misused by their wives to extort money, a group representing men who have been accused of dowry abuse said today."

"Under the law, the accused can be arrested and jailed without warrant or investigation, the complaint cannot be withdrawn by the petitioner and it is non-bailable."

Story here. Excerpt:

"Two women who murdered their allegedly abusive husbands have had their life sentences commuted by Governor Jeb Bush and the state Cabinet."

"The panel agreed to release Sandra Patria of Manatee County and Sherry Perry of Seminole County. Patria has been in prison for nearly 23 years. Perry, who first claimed two men from Panama killed her husband, has been in prison for 10 years. It has not been said when the women will be released."

"As part of the arrangement, both women after their release will spend 18 months in a program designed to help victims of domestic violence. Those programs are in Gainesville and Tampa."

Article here. Excerpt:

"Proclaiming his innocence, the 41-year-old Vallejo man racked up thousands of dollars in legal bills before a judge dismissed the charges a month later, saying there was insufficient evidence of domestic violence."

"Even the cop was apologetic," said Joe, who asked that his identity be disguised because his divorce proceedings are ongoing. "She told me she didn't believe (my wife), but that she had to arrest me because the accusation had been made."

Ed. note: Article mentions RADAR. Good exposure!

Article here. Excerpt:

"It has become painfully obvious that the accused are being used for some purpose other than the pursuit of justice. If it turns out that the prosecutor is continuing to press increasingly discredited allegations, severe action needs to be taken. If this is all a political game, Mike Nifong's last day in office should be the legal equivalent of Mussolini's involuntary inverted pinata therapy at the end of World War II"

Story here. Excerpt:

"The general public still does not let boys be victims like they do girls," said Hobbs, a 23-year veteran of the department. "And I don't think they hold the offenders as accountable when the offender is a female."

"Light sentences in some notorious cases brought public outcry from groups that say female offenders are getting a slap on the wrist."
