Site will be down for maintenance this weekend. Trying to fix a few bugs. Hope the site will be up Monday. If not you will see something at least.

You may have heard some reports on it, but Uganda has recently been trying to pass the death penalty as punishment for homosexual activities. This has inspired protests against the country and…
