Here's some interesting current events from all around the world.

• In South Africa, police rescued eight women who were lured into forced prostitution.

• Every minute, somewhere in the world a woman dies during pregnancy or in childbirth.

• TV personality Sam Newman went on a sexist rant recently, claiming that women serve "very little purpose" in AFL boardrooms and that women have done nothing for football. Umm... maybe because no one will let us.

• Several women have come out and accused Bloomberg L.P., a company founded by Mayor Mike Bloomberg, of discrimination against pregnant employees.

• AlterNet posted a video, showing a voter asking McCain if he really called his wife a cunt. Watch McCain get all flustered. It's fun. (For those of you who don't know, a few reporters came out and said they overheard McCain call his wife the C-word to her face a couple years ago).

• Pro-choicers and anti-choicers are grappling with one another in Tennessee.
