Treating Putin Like a Lunatic
Robert Parry, Consortium News
Parry writes: "When reading the New York Times on many foreign policy issues, it doesn’t take a savant to figure out what the newspaper’s bias is. Anything, for instance, relating to Russian President Vladimir Putin drips of contempt and hostility."

Brockovich | Prop 46: All We Have to Lose Is Our Lives
Erin Brockovich, Reader Supported News
Brockovich writes: "I've never been able to stomach a bully, whether on the playground or in a corporate executive suite. The biggest bully in California politics these days is the 'No on 46' gang -- the collection of billion-dollar insurance companies and medical industry honchos spending big and spreading falsehoods to defeat Proposition 46."

In Brazilian
City, Homeless Face 'Extermination'
Matt Sandy, Al Jazeera America
Sandy writes: "In a sense, Cruz was lucky. Dozens of others who, like him, slept on the streets of Goiânia, a disregarded city of 1.3 million in Brazil’s agricultural heartland, have been stoned, stabbed, clubbed or burned alive. Others have simply disappeared."

Bring Back the
Abortion Underground Railroad
Raina Lipsitz, Al Jazeera America
Lipsitz writes: "These ongoing crackdowns belie the popular notion that abortions are readily obtainable in the United States. The truth is that while the procedure is legal, its accessibility depends on having time, money and a flexible schedule. The injustice created is so gross that the only recourse for many women may be civil disobedience."

The Truth
Behind America's Most Famous Gay-Hate Murder
Julie Bindel, Guardian UK
Bindel writes: "The Matthew Shepard story is not yet finished. A new twist came last year with the publication of another book, this one by investigative journalist Stephen Jimenez, who has spent 13 years interviewing more than 100 people with a connection to the case. His conclusion, outlined in The Book of Matt: Hidden Truths about the Murder of Matthew Shepard, is that the grotesque murder was not a hate crime."

Solar Power Is
Contagious: Installing Panels Often Means Your Neighbors Will
Too
Brad Plumer, Vox
Plumer writes: "Solar power still generates just 0.4 percent of America's electricity. But it's expanding at a shocking rate, with a new rooftop system installed every four minutes. There are lots of reasons for that, from lower costs to federal subsidies to innovative financing schemes."
