Could lipstick give you breast cancer?
Chemicals found in lipstick and nail varnish could trigger breast cancer, scientists warned yesterday.
A study has shown that butyl benzyl phthalate, or BBP, can interfere with the healthy development of breast tissue.
The man-made substance is part of the phthalate family of chemicals, which mimic the female sex hormone oestrogen.

Hillary’s loss is mot Women’s Failure. The claim that some ‘Angry White Women‘ either will vote for John McCain or stay home on Election Day, sounds like disappointment devolving into hypocrisy.

Acne and Hormone: When do females have raging hormone and acne breakout? More generally than not, changeable citizenry is the best accepted ambition of the alarming abscess dilemma.

The incidence of depression is higher in women than men, but the reverse pattern is seen with suicide, a new study from Norway has found. In high-income countries, it is known that suicide rates are three to four times higher in men than in women. In contrast, population surveys indicate that the prevalence of depression, suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts are higher in women than in men. Ther

weird factsScientists have been able to take control of flies' brains to make females behave just like males.Researchers genetically modified the insects so that a group of brain cells that control sexual behaviour could be "switched on" by a pulse of light.The team was able to get female fruit flies to produce a courtship song - behaviour usually only seen in males.The study, published in the journal Cell, suggests that the wiring in male and female flies' brains is similar.Scanning electron micrograph of the fruit fly (SPL)What would happen if we turned the neurons on in femalesGero MiesenboeckGero Miesenboeck, from Oxford University, UK, who carried out the research with J.

My baby Alicia Keys tops the list because she is stunningly attractive, but still keeps that homegirl vibe from around the way.

She reminds of a girl that I once knew... and I hate that, but that's probably why I'm feeling her so much.I remember when Ashanti first came out and everybody was hating on her, talking bout she look like Wolverine cuz of her sideburns, but I didn't even care about that!

For conservative women, withholding support from Hillary Clinton is a no-brainer. It is quite easy for them to see past the fact that Hillary is a female and see that she is a flip flopper who will say and do anything to get elected.However, surprisingly enough even some of the most loyal Democratic liberal females are coming to at least some clarity on the issue.The Los Angeles Times made the following observations.“While they struggled to break through institutional barriers in the workplace, Clinton hitched her star to her man and followed him to the top. When his philandering imperiled his political career, she not only pulled him out of the fire but helped orchestrate attacks against his accusers.”Other liberal women appear disturbed by Hillary’s support for the Iraq war and her reluctance to take firm stands on some important issues.On the Huffington Post blog, writer Nora Ephron included herself among the “Hillary resisters” and said these women “don’t trust her a

So my last post got me called a misogynist, which is rather unfair, since I don’t hate women so much as I hate people in general. That’s why my blog has the sub-heading "Antisocial Commentary." I even wrote a book with that title. I’m not sure how that’s unclear. Am I not using a big enough font? Ok, ok, I don’t hate people, at least not the way I hate Grey’s Anatomy, but I do find them to be grating and tiresome, like one of the later episodes of M*A*S*H where Alan Alda spent the whole time whining about the horrors of war rather than playing amusing tricks on Hot Lips Hoolihan. Except that unlike with M*A*S*H, you can’t just tune it out, because people keep poking you and telling you that it’s your nephew’s birthday and you should really be watching him open presents rather than sitting on the couch in the other room reading The New Yorker. My in-laws are Dutch, and there’s a Dutch word for being sociable that I can’t spell which is pronounced huh

Man, this is a very interesting question that Killer Mike wants to ask the ladies: "Spit or Swallow"? This is a very enthralling panel discussion with him Ms. Vagina Power, Alexyss Tylor, and her mom.
Dressed up in drag, GM a couple months ago gave into an unusual team building experience. Mary Spies, a vehicle line director took her male team out to "learn" about what women "have to go through":""We dressed him in a garbage bag to simulate a tight skirt. We gave him rubber gloves with press on nails, a purse, a baby, and a baby stroller and some chores like loading groceries." With all female handicaps in place, the men were then required to go through what women do routinely every day."A bit shocked that there isn't more negative publicity about this, here's a heap of criticism. Firstly, "female handicaps" can't quite be seen as anything but an offensive phrase. The entire article tries to spin that this exercise at GM was to make their vehicles less male focused. By the article stating that babies and purses are "female handicaps", that alone already makes GM that much more discreditable. However, the most irritating idea in the entire scheme is the fact that GM comes off as s
These women are out to prove that the females of the world are just as ready for mind blowing exhilaration as the next guy.

We Are All Welcome HereFiction, by Elizabeth BergRetail: $22.95Published: April 2006This is the story of three strong females in 1964. Paige Dunn, paralyzed from the neck down from polio, is a feisty woman of amazing independence in spite of her limitations. She has boyfriends. She paints and writes songs. She loves lying in the sun. Diana Dunn is her 13-year-old daughter. She is filled with adolescent angst, a developing sexuality, and a desire to flee the ongoing care she needs to give to her mother. Peacie is a serious-minded African-American who cares for Paige during the day. She also has little patience with Diana and her teen issues. When Diana’s boyfriend decides to support black voters and risk his own safety, the three women pull together with amazing results.
This interesting article addresses some of the key issues regarding Body Building Sports Supplements. A careful reading of this material could make a big difference in how you think about Body Building Sports Supplements.Females with a fit and well-toned body are now taking part in the once male-dominated sport of body building. Female body building is now one of the most popular sports in modern society, considering, that a female with a fit and well-toned body is very attractive and very sexy.Females that go to the gym and enroll in a body building program for females, usually want to improve the way their body looks. Body building programs for females differ from body building programs for men. Not just the outer appearance, but also the inside workings of the chemicals found in the female's body is very different from the male's.To keep from ending up looking too bulky, looking like one of the guys in the body building world, and still maintain your feminine appearance, learn wha

Step 1. Abandon all logic. Girls don't use it, and you certainly shouldn't allow it to handicap you.Step 2. If you believe strongly in something, do NOT give in to any aspect of it. Compromise is useless against girls, because they will rationalize that if they can get you to concede to one element, they can get you to quit on the whole fuckin' Periodic Table. (Nothing like a little chemistry humor, right?)Step 3. Don't be afraid to take cheap shots. Ever argue with a girl about something and they randomly insult you with something that has no relevance to the argument? That's their way of trying to wear you down and push you off-topic. Fight fire with fire, I say. Tell her she has a fat ass, small boobs, an ugly face, disorienting facial hair, unwieldy hips, and is a genuinely awful person.Step 4. Cite precedent. Girls have no concept of historical factors relating to the current situation. Most girls reading this just went over to dictionary.com to see what "precedent" meant.Ste
According to The Korea Herald: “Taliban militants Tuesday proposed that female South Korean hostages be freed in return for the release of an equal number of female Taliban prisoners held by the Afghan government.” 16 of the hostages taken by the Taliban, which the paper describes as “extremists, waging an insurgency against the government,” are women and any women arrested and convicted in Afghanistan would have been jailed being according to Taliban spokesman Qari Yousuf Ahmadi “simple Taliban supporters, who were convicted for providing food or shelter to Taliban fighters.” Oh, well then, that’s ok… On a brighter note and in what would not have been seen five short years ago in Afghanistan: “Around 300 Afghans demonstrated Monday in the southern city of Kandahar calling for the release of 21 South Koreans who have been held by the extremist Taliban militia for more than two weeks.” “The demonstrators moved through the city in pickup truc
Oh my God; Thinking to to myself while strolling into the Sheraton Hotel's Four Point Lounge in which to attend an adult "singles party" for the over 40's crowd.While at the same time I am asking myself; How in the world did I get sooooo old and where did all the time go and how did all of this happen to me? Over 50 and going to a bar....Nope this can't be.... For a moment there I seriously felt as if I was having an out of body experience, I guess I was in momentary denial!But let's wait a second and let me digress. At this point you're probably wondering; What does being a single woman over forty (okay, okay...its over 50 but who will ever know?) have to do with a this Spiritual Dog Blog, and what does being over fifty have to do with dogs anyway?Because just recently my friends have shared their concerns with me over the fact that I would rather hang out with Pinky (my dog) than seek out the attentions of eligible single males. They go on to continually remind me that
Japanese authorities abducted and coerced women into sexual slavery during World War II in the occupied Dutch East Indies, according to Netherlands government documents made available Friday by a Japanese journalist based in Berlin. The evidence contradicts Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's recent remarks disputing such wartime coercion by the Japanese military, which have stirred international controversy and drawn fire particularly from South Korea and China.In one of the previously undisclosed documents obtained by journalist Taichiro Kajimura, who met Japanese reporters in Berlin, a 27-year-old Dutch woman was quoted as testifying that she had her clothes ripped off by Japanese military police and was taken to a brothel where she was forced to sell sex despite having tried to resist.
[Tuesday, 01 May, 2007]I had Condition Zero with my elder brother again until 5am before I continued to work for another hour. I ought to be shot for I had always wanted to have enough rest before going down to the beach for another exhausting day but it seemed that someone had to knock me to unconscious.After waking up at 9am, I lazed around on the bed for some time before begging the massaging chair to cure my back problem but it only offered me a little and short anaesthetic. I was so happy to have my half boiled eggs again, especially when my mum told me she had to heat them up more and I thought the result would be perfect; unfortunately the eggs were overcooked. My mum loved to play with words but it was good enough to be served.I had to start giving morning calls to people at the same time. When I called Ruoci before leaving the house, she sounded sleepy and I knew it was a waste of time immediately. She told me she slept at 6am and I knew since beginning she did not intend to g
Kate Moss faces the axe from the world's 100 sexiest women list because men think she looks a MESS. Kate, 33, has been, er, spotted looking less than glamorous since she started seeing junkie Pete Doherty.She came 87th in last year's FHM magazine poll, is currently thousands of votes outside the Top 100 after turned-off lads failed to get behind her. Executive editor Chris Bell said: "In the fashion world Kate is considered one of the most beautiful women, but according to FHM readers she's past it.
Since the beginning, this blog has had a music player on its right side. It has been there for one month or something so I think it's time to refresh (that is, to change) the music played on it.This first playlist has been dedicated to the female voices of rock music. It needs a second (and third, fourth, fifth...) part, 'cause it's imposible to fit them all in one single playlist. The chosen ones were:1.

The first EVER football camp for girls sponsored by the NFL and the Independent Women's Football League has finally happened. About 150 girls went to the event at the New Jersey's Giant Stadium and made history.More and more girls are playing football. Girls are wanting to get into this sport. So the NFL has taken noticed and actually started a football camp for girls to go to.Women have actually been playing on all women's football teams since 1950. The IWFL was developed some years back and now boasts a roster of 35 all-female teams.I say go for it girls. If you love playing football, why shouldn't you play? I get a chuckle when I see girls in my town who are all dressed out in a football uniform who play with the boys. They basically don't have a choice since there aren't all girl footb
Three weeks ago the first ever northern white rhino was born in captivity. Buoyed by this success, scientists are planning to launch one of the most high tech and aggressive breeding programs in history to save the rhino - the world's most endangered large mammal - from extinction. Just 2 fertile females remain of a once mighty population that roamed over large areas of central Africa.Now a team of researchers in Budapest are planning to use artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization and sex-selection of embryos to boost the numbers of northern whites as quickly as possible while there is still time.If this team succeed(s), they will have pulled off one of the most extraordinary feats in wildlife conservation. Most experts assume the northern white is doomed and will join the dodo, passenger pigeon, quagga and Tasmanian wolf as victims of the predations of modern humans.Since 1960, South African conservation efforts have helped the southern white rhino (the near cousin to the n

From the American Journal of Sports Medicine, a recent article reports on the post operative results for UCL injuries of the elbow in female athletes. Argo, Trenhaile, Savoie, & Field looked at 19 females who underwent a surgical procedure for ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) insufficiency. From the literature (which I have seen), this is the first study of its kind to document its findings specifically in females. UCL injuries are most common in overhead athletes, with baseball being the most frequently cited. The subjects in this study participated in a variety of sports including softball (42%), gymnastics, and tennis. All subjects all failed conservative management and had symptoms of medial elbow instability for greater than 3 months. Following surgery, active range of motion was started after 1 week and strengthening exercises for the scapula, rotator cuff, wrist, and forearm were started at 3 to 4weeks. Full upper extremity rehabilitation with the brace at full range
