Things I found worth reading today:
Food for thought about the UAE port deal at Booman Tribune. Incidentally, I can name, offhand, five British citizens who are known terrorists. Does that mean ports overseen by British firms are unsafe? Maybe it's truer that ALL ports are unsafe. (Except for Sealand's, of course.)
Meanwhile, from the Great British press:

Men have always preferred blonds. So the anthropological evidence says. This article may spur sales of flaxen haircoloring, especially since the last paragraph predicts the end of the blond: "According to the WHO study, the last natural blond is likely to be born in Finland during 2202." No, this is no blond joke, but go ahead, if you must.
