CUTTING THE FAT: McDonalds and Weight Watchers have joined forces to fight obesity. Is this a deal with the devil or a way to help obese people make the proper choices when eating out in the real world? Kiwis are the 2nd fattest in the world after the United States. What else are we doing to cutting obesity in New Zealand?

SNIPPING CHILD ABUSERS: David Garrett has suggested that parents found guilty of abusing their children should be offered $5,000 to be sterilised. These comments have people up in arms but what do we do about people who abuse their children? How do we stop the cycle of violence?
