Another endangered Irrawaddy dolphin dies in a fishing net in the Mekong. Four such dolphins have died, as the the global population of river dolphins continue to decline.
Woman dies due to unsafe abortion in Camobodia. The problem of course is the lack of access to safe abortion and general medical care for many Cambodians. This is worsen by the lack of health education. Cambodian laws state that only license medical officials can perform abortion.
Teabagger fails. In an attempt to show their diversity, a teabagger rally ends up being overwhelmingly white and straight. The very few gay teabaggers there are, of course, idiots.
Fires in Russia.
Like American university graduates, Japanese university graduates are expected to face a small job market.
UNESCO to add Bikini Atoll as a heritage site. Bikini was used as a nuclear bomb test site by the United States during the Cold War. The natives of the island were relocated to another island where they suffered from starvation due to poor conditions there.

Idiot of the Day
Phyllis Schlafly, speaking in Michigan:
Can't her god rapture her already? This is profoundly stupid on so many levels. There exist many family situations where women are the sole provider not the men. Women have been and will continue to be a powerful working forces, much to Schlafly's displeasure. Be not surprise by here, though. Schlafly can't compete against the patriarch of her beloved society. She bows down to the misogyny of the Church. Instead she works and get her ways by belittling women, and constantly attacking them. She steps all over women rights, because that way she'll have a place in her patriarchal fascist ideal.
Also don't you love how idiots like her goes all foaming mad about the imaginary things that Obama has done. To be sure, liberals are now complaining that Obama isn't doing enough. This has been true for any Democrat president. It's just hilarious that the religious right are going off about his no-existent actions (and complaining about how he was democratically elected into office. We all know the religious right wants fascism.)
"Do you know what the second-biggest demographic group that voted for Obama --
obviously the blacks were the biggest demographic group. But do you all know
what was the second-biggest?" she asked the crowd attending the fund-raiser in
Troy. "Unmarried women, 70% of unmarried women, voted for Obama, and this is
because when you kick your husband out, you've got to have big brother
government to be your provider."
