Google rolled out an amazing new feature. It's called Instant Search. As you type words into the search bar, it populates corresponding page links and changes with every word you type. Amazing, right?
There are activists in an uproar that, when you type phrases such as "faggot" or "lesbian", no page links show up until you press OK. When you search for the word "fag", this is not the case.
Is Google keeping it safe for the kiddies or should we be upset that terms such as "lesbian" and "faggot" may bring up gross porn, but the word "fag", in US terms, is deemed ok to search without that extra OK step?

No Divorce for You, Texas!
It has been ruled by an appeals court that divorce is not allowed for gay couples. Texas does not currently recognize gay marriage and they aren't about to. In fact, they want to create an amendment against it.
In a district court, the judge had ruled in favor of the gay couple who wanted to divorce, but the 5th Texas Court of Appeals ruled that the judge had no jurisdiction.
Everything is bigger in Texas, which includes bigotry.

GaGa Goes Minister

Cancer Drugs to Cure HIV?
New research is coming to light to possibly help cure HIV. Though the drugs taken currently by HIV positive people can cause the virus to lay dormant in the cells, if the drugs are not taken, the virus can spring up stronger than before. The research will hopefully attack the virus hiding in the cells to cure HIV for good.
