The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Knowing the Middle East (and Beyond)

That other Boston newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor, has a quiz to test your knowledge of current Islam.
Most of the world's major religions are made up of multiple sects or denominations, and Islam is no different. Islam's two major sects are the Sunnis and the Shiites, and the division and interplay between the two is a major factor in the geopolitics of the Middle East. How well do you understand Sunni and Shiite Islam? Take our quiz and find out!

Arthur Bright, Correspondent
Take the quiz here.

I got ten out of ten.  How about you?

I note that this quiz does not prove you know more than a year's reading of the newspaper and some ability to make links will give you, but it is a start.
