Sometimes Women Have Scrotums.

So a new advertising campaign has been released for testicular cancer awareness clearly aimed at cis female-attracted men. It features Rhian Sugden, a cis female model, posing sexily for the camera, running her hands over her body, then pulling a scrotum out of her underwear and examining it.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

just got this from narl and wanted to share


It's shocking. Just moments ago, one of the most far-reaching anti-choice bills...putting a woman's life at risk...passed the U.S. House of Representatives.
This bill, H.R.358, would allow hospitals to refuse to provide a woman lifesaving, emergency abortion care...even if she will die without it.
Now, the bill is headed to the U.S. Senate. We must have the resources necessary to fight this bill tooth and nail.
a rose, I am outraged that members of Congress overwhelmingly would pass such an unconscionable, extreme bill. H.R.358 would let women die, telling hospitals that they do not need to provide lifesaving, emergency abortion care.
This is not an isolated vote; it's part of an ongoing agenda that we must fight every day. In fact, the "Let Women Die" bill is the seventh vote on choice taken in the House this year. It is yet another example of just how out of touch anti-choice politicians are with the country's values and priorities.
With only 40 pro-choice votes out of 100 in the Senate, it is critical that we work closely with our pro-choice allies and that we educate mixed-choice lawmakers about this extreme measure.
But we can't do it without your support! We need you and every outraged pro-choice American to help us fight against this attack right now. Please donate today.
Your gift will:
  • Help us target key senators in their home states and in Washington, D.C.
  • Lobby and educate lawmakers to ensure that the Senate doesn't follow the House in using women's lives as a political bargaining chip.
  • Strengthen our ability to gain more media coverage of the War on Women.
  • Help us protect choice at all levels of government.
Thank you for recognizing the urgency of my request by making an emergency online contribution today.
Sincerely,

Nancy Keenan
President, NARAL Pro-Choice America

nyt article on text messaging

and a NEW imessage service (debuting wednesday) that will NOT count as text messages through your phone plan, but over wifi or 3G (so it won't count as a text). it only works between iphones though. other interesting data on text message figures in the article.


Free Texts Pose Threat to Carriers

By 
........................On Wednesday, Apple plans to introduce a new service called iMessage, which could quickly become the biggest fish in this pond. The service lets iPhone owners send messages with text, photos and video to other iPhone owners over a Wi-Fi or cellular data connection. The service, part of an update to Apple’s iOS mobile operating system, will automatically handle messages sent between iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch users who have upgraded to the latest software.
“There’s a huge amount at stake here,” said Craig Moffett, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein, who covers the telecommunications industry. “They are undermining the core business model for an industry that makes most of its money from services that are high priced and low bandwidth, like texting.”...............
