after hearing about it on the radio...
Russia's Conception Day: Have a June baby, win a prize
By LIZA KUZNETSOVA
The Associated Press

MOSCOW \ufffd A Russian region best known as the birthplace of Vladimir Lenin has found a novel way to fight the nation's birthrate crisis: It has declared Sept. 12 the Day of Conception and for the third year running is giving couples time off from work to procreate.

Wonder if you have to be married to get the time off?

New Prizes galore in Oz, June or no
The Government's current idea to increase the birthrate is the Baby Bonus. For each baby you get $4000 - soon to be $5000 I think. No, I don't think you get to keep the cash if you think a few rounds of 'procreate / adopt it out' are a good way to earn some pocket money.

Of course, whilst Baby Bonus is a nice and quaint enough name, it is of course more colloquially known as 'fuck bucks' :-)
Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.

Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please
