POPSChildren's sexuality shouldn't be stifled "Children must learn about sexuality, otherwise things can go very wrong," said Langfeldt. "Children can't object to something they don't know about, and children can more easily and readily report assaults if they already are aware of their own sexuality." Juul conceded that "many are disturbed by children's sexuality, but I think it's important to put it on the agenda. That, in fact, is what we're doing."

POPSMiddle school will provide birth control pills, patches Is the school not opening itself up for lawsuits? How can a minor (11-13 years old) be expected to understand the consequences of using hormones? The pill is effective if it is used properly, and without parental knowledge who can say if a woman this young is really capable of that? Would this not be a false sense of security? What is wrong with condoms? No hormones in those. No prescription needed. What do you think?

POPSHow a cow fights AIDS The family has passed on a heifer to another family and sold a second calf, also a female, for $600-an enormous windfall for a family in rural Rwanda. "Then we saved $600 from selling the milk," Matilda says, "and were able to buy this house near the road, install a good water collection system, and buy some good hens. Besides that, we are drinking milk at home every morning and evening." Visit the source for more information. Search Clipmarks for Heifer International for more clips on this organization.

POPSIran's parallel judicial system From source: This is true even if the killer mistakenly identified the victim as corrupt. In that case, the law requires "blood money" to be paid to the family. Every year in Iran, a senior cleric determines the amount of blood money required in such cases. This year it is $40,000 if the victim is a Muslim man, and half that for a Muslim woman or a non-Muslim. Hossein Nejad Malayeri, the brother of Gholamreza Nejad Malayeri, who was killed by the group in Kerman, said: "Such laws are not acceptable in our society today. That means if somebody has money, he can kill, and claim the victim was corrupt."
