At the insistence of the National Union of Journalists, the Daily Star has binned a satirical feature page showing what the paper would look like under sharia law. The reason?
(A) very serious risk of violent and dangerous reprisals from religious fanatics who may take offence at these articles.
What does the Daily Star and my dog have in common? They both lack a pair of standard masculine equipment.

Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
