Honestly, what do you think of this topic? From your point of view, christian or otherwise.

PROPOSED CHANGES TO PENAL CODE
By K.C. Vijayan
Turning to sexual offences - in particular, Section 377 of the Penal Code, which deals with sexual acts ‘against the order of nature’ - the society said the MHA’s proposal to retain homosexuality as an offence in Section 377A ‘cannot be justified’.
It described the retention as ‘out of step with legal norms in the modern law’.
The society stressed that it was not arguing that homosexuality is morally acceptable, and said a ’significant minority’ wanted the provision to remain, but the majority view prevailed.
The MHA’s approach is that homosexuality is not widely accepted here. Having said that, the ministry has said it will not be ‘proactive’ in enforcing this law against consensual acts that take place in private.
But the society sees this as an admission that the section is ‘out-of-step’ and ‘runs the risk of bringing the law into disrepute’. It suggests a complete review, and a new chapter in the Penal Code on sexual offences.
The society, expressing its gratitude that the MHA consulted both the public and it, also urged that a commission be set up to review the reforms.
Contacted yesterday, an MHA spokesman said all views received were being studied

Hal Higdon's MARATHON GUIDE!
Read on the weep guys... This is the training schedule that we should be following... Don't follow this, and i GUARANTEE you that the marathon day will be very very painful....... (like all my marathons, cos i don't follow it, heh...)
PEOPLE DIFFER GREATLY IN ABILITY, but ideally before starting a marathon program, you should have been running about a year. You should be able to comfortably run distances between 3 and 6 miles. You should be training 3-5 days a week, averaging 15-25 miles a week. You should have run an occasional 5-K or 10-K race. It is possible to run a marathon with less of a training base (particularly if you come from another sport), but the higher your fitness level, the easier this 18-week program will be.
Marathon singlet?
Hey doods... i was thinking of making a singlet for us to run in for the marathon in dec..
No inspiration rite now though... any ideas? Or do you think it's a waste of effort?
