Orgasms, Blogging, copyright, IT Greenery and a Labour wipeout

[matgb]

• The Orgasmic Mind: The Neurological Roots of Sexual Pleasure: Scientific American
  Interesting, not had time to read fully, linking for reference: The results suggest that women are not only aroused by a variety of types of sexual imagery but are more flexible than men in their sexual interests and preferences.

• Blogging, Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press - Paul Anderson
  Nice summary of the legal rights to copyright we have under UK and international law - in other words, don't let the Mail on Sunday rip you off without permission, and demand payment if they do.

• Under The Microscope: Why Are There So Few Female Scientists?
  'As the rest of the world makes leaps and bounds in science, engineering and technology, we're perfecting a reality television.'
  (tags: feminism science research equality)
• BNP leadership fight: Nick Griffin looks to crush leadership challenge
  Democratic pary my arse: the BNP's national election officer then goes on to say that any resulting election 'should be carried out in the most rapid manner possible with zero publicity allowed for the joke candidate.'

• Saving Energy - One Monitor at a Time
  Or, in other words, why having a dark background for your sites and documents cuts electric use. Lots. and it's easier on the eyes. My LJ layout: saving the planet ;-)

• could Labour be heading for a wipeout along the lines of the Conservatives in 1993 :: The Snow In The Summer or So-So
  Iains followd up on the landslide/wipeout link I posted: Could Labour fall to just five seats at the next election? It's unlikely, but not completely impossible. One of the preconditions is the invention of a competitor party in heartland seats

women are more flexible than men in their sexual interests and preferences, eh, wife?

[matgb]

In general and on average, yes.

I vote meh. If Labour did only get 5 seats, Stoke North, Stoke Central and Stoke South would be 3 of them. Despite all the city's MPs being complete bellends.

Did you read Alix Mortimer today? That's worthy of inclusion in the list of doom :)

Yeah, but that would mean reading the Mail on Sunday to find out if they ripped me off or not...
