In a city where men are regularly seen urinating on the street with wanton abandon, some have welcomed the arrival of the "uritrottoirs" (pavement urinals) as an innovation that might help rid the French capital of unpleasant sights and smells.

    Seriously. I guess it just too much to ask men to have some basic manners in public, like DON'T URINATE ON THE SIDEWALK AND STREET. Sheesh.
