http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/22620-women-republicans-try-to-explain-why-women-dont-need-equal-pay

Amy Fallon, Inter Press Service: Human rights campaigners who filed a recent legal petition against Uganda's draconian anti-gay law believe that they have a compelling case for its nullification.

This Statistic Should Shut Down Any Talk of Cutting Social Security
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/22619-this-statistic-should-shut-down-any-talk-of-cutting-social-security
Isaiah J. Poole, Campaign for America's Future: Thirty-six percent of workers, according to one poll, have less than $1,000 saved for their retirement, a jump from 28 percent.

Crimea and Punishment
http://truth-out.org/news/item/22624-crimea-and-punishment
Lorraine Barlett, Consortium News: With a plot line reminiscent of a Russian novel, the revolving cast of rogues and rebels involved in the Ukraine crisis provides the hoi polloi with a fascinating tale of intrigue and treachery. But most are getting their information from the Cliff's Notes version of this season's War and Peace, as helpfully provided by the so-called "mainstream media."
