Facts on Russia:


Ladies, if it's Cassanova you're looking for, don't bother going to the West Coast.

Date: 2007-02-13

The men there are more likely to try and woo you with a pint at the RSA than a bouquet of long stemmed red roses.

And gentlemen, if you're looking for love of the long-term kind, stay away from the Tasman region, host to the country's most commitment-shy women.

A new online survey, Kiwi Cupid, by The Warehouse does not claim to be scientific, but offers a few tips for those looking for love – of any variety – on Valentine's Day.

While New Zealand men appear to fall primarily into the categories of Caveman Cupid or Last Minute Cupid (and yes, they are both as bad as they sound), New Zealand women, it seems, are hooked on romance.

Nationwide, 40 per cent of men responding to the online quiz fell into the Caveman Cupid – read clueless Cupid – category, and 31 per cent found themselves classed Last Minute Cupid (at least there is hope for them).

The only region that bucked the trend was Marlborough, where a whopping 40 per cent of men were designated Mr Perfect – up from the national average of 20 per cent.

At 65 per cent, women overwhelmingly fell into the Coy Cupid category – it seems we are a nation of Mills and Boon readers, looking for a wee bit of soppy soft-focused sweet talking on February 14.

While only 12 per cent of women nationwide considered themselves to be Committed Cupids, desperately seeking rings on fingers, in the Tasman region not even one woman wanted long term love.

Perhaps this was due to the higher-than average (50 per cent) number of Caveman Cupids populating the region.

The survey of 2700 New Zealanders revealed 55 per cent of men and 60 per cent of women had received an anonymous Valentine's Day gift.

And when it comes to reciprocating, 46 per cent of men and 40 per cent of women admitted to having sent an anonymous Valentine's Day gift in the past.

The Warehouse spokesperson, Cynthia Church, when it came to the question of what people would really like to receive on Valentine's Day nearly 40 per cent of women indicated they would like to receive a "soppy" gift such as a card, flowers and even soft toys ahead of practical items.

However, it seems Valentine's Day also brings out the softer side of Kiwi men with 35 per cent preferring to receive something "thoughtful" from their admirer."

A November 11th Washington Times article "Abused wives in India pin hope on anti-violence law" resulted in a number of letters to the editor of the Times, claiming that the article is biased. The Times article blithely repeated an eye-popping claim that "A 2005 U.N. Population Fund report found that 70 percent of married women in India were victims of beatings or rape", without even questioning it. On November 17th, the Times published three identical letters to the editor, but prefaced them wit...A COUPLE cuddling beside the tree in matching Aran knits, an angelic nuclear family gathering around the piano to sing O Come, All Ye Faithful.
