Biltrafiken minskade och kollektivtrafiken ökade på första riktiga arbetsdagen med Stockholms biltullar. Men det tycks finnas ett glapp, ett antal försvunna trafikanter. Vart tog de vägen? Min gissning är att ett antal tidigare bilister bara satt hemma istället, apatiska.<br><br>Det kan ju vara en lösning på miljö- och trängselproblemen?<br><br>Om alla sitter hemma, apatiska, så minskar människans påverkan på naturen. Har någon tipsat Miljöpartiet om detta?<br>

Vårt mål är sex timmars arbetsdag med bibehållen lön

Interviews by U.S. government interrogators with Iraqi regime officials and military leaders corroborate the documentary evidence. Many of the fighters were drawn from terrorist groups in northern Africa with close ties to al Qaeda, chief among them Algeria's GSPC and the Sudanese Islamic Army. Some 2,000 terrorists were trained at these Iraqi camps each year from 1999 to 2002, putting the total number at or above 8,000.

The human cuteness detector is set at such a low bar, researchers said, that it sweeps in and deems cute practically anything remotely resembling a human baby or a part thereof, and so ends up including the young of virtually every mammalian species, fuzzy-headed birds like Japanese cranes, woolly bear caterpillars, a bobbing balloon, a big round rock stacked on a smaller rock, a colon, a hyphen and a close parenthesis typed in succession.

Whatever needs pitching, cute can help. A recent study at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center at the University of Michigan showed that high school students were far more likely to believe antismoking messages accompanied by cute cartoon characters like a penguin in a red jacket or a smirking polar bear than when the warnings were delivered unadorned.

, but babies themselves, evolutionary scientists say, did not really evolve to be cute. Instead, most of their salient qualities stem from the demands of human anatomy and the human brain, and became appealing to a potential caretaker's eye only because infants wouldn't survive otherwise.
