This is really a headline of the day, but I feel that it's incumbent on me to alert women everywhere that very soon, a young man will be on the loose in the world with zero respect for his mother, which — guess what? — means zero respect for other women. What did this baby-douche do? He got pissed that his mother called him down for dinner repeatedly and then finally unplugged his X-Box console, so he threw a taco in her face after shoving her and calling her names. Good on his mom for charging him with domestic battery. He's in jail without bail. (Harsh!) That'll teach him! Click here to read more.
Feeling Second Best Bianca wrote in yesterday complaining that her boyfriend's admiration for technology is ruining their relationship, but a new study says that it's girls that actually have the edge in new technologies, not the boys!
According to the findings, 94 percent of girls had laptops at home while only 88 percent of boys did, and 50 percent of the children turned to their mothers for tech help versus 22 percent who turned to their fathers. Study coauthor Professor Karen Pine feels as though, "Mothers are taking the lead" and that they're "also the most experienced and capable computer and Internet users.” So when it comes to your relationship, tell me, are you actually more technologically savvy than your man?

The rate of optimism in America has barely broken 50 percent since 1993; but this month hopefulness has spiked. A new Gallup poll shows that 72 percent of Americans think the country will be better off in four years from now, while only 20 percent think it will be worse off after Barack Obama's first term.
The optimism surrounding Barack Obama's inauguration stands out more when compared to that seen at the beginning of other presidential terms. When President Bush was inaugurated in 2005, 53 percent of the country said it would be better off by 2009. In 2001, 46 percent thought we would be better off by 2005; and in 1992, 51 percent said we would be better off after Clinton's first term.
While I'm pretty impressed that 72 percent have faith that things will get better, perhaps it just means many can't imagine a situation worse than the present.
