Woman sues maker of Yaz birth control
2009-11-05 21:14:00 A woman is suing the maker of Yaz birth control after the contraceptive allegedly caused her to develop gall stones. Melissa Johnson is suing Bayer, the maker of the prescription birth control, because she says it caused her to develop gall stones necessitating the removal of her gall bladder. According to the complaint, Yaz contains drospirenone, a type of progestin not contained in any other birth control and of which "there is insufficient data to support its safe use." The complaint states that, since Yaz first appeared in the U.S., "hundreds of reports of injury and death" have been submitted to the FDA. The lawsuit also points out the maker's "over-promotion" of Yaz that led to the FDA requiring it to run new TV...

The Birth of the Virgin
2009-09-06 14:01:00 Don Silvestro dei Gherarducci (Italian, 1339?1399)Initial G with the Birth of the Virgin, ca. 1375From a gradual created for the Camaldolese monastery of Santa Maria degli Angeli, FlorenceTempera, gold, and ink on parchment; 11 1/2 x 11 3/4 in. (29.2 x 29.8 cm)The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York This initial G was the first letter of the Introit to the Mass for the feast commemorating the Birth of the Virgin. As a Camaldolese monastery, it would be expected that the inspiration was similar books from the mother house. The iconography is not Florentine but Siennese. Note the walls and ceiling, the delicacy of the details in each figure, the lilies in the border, and the figure leaving the room. The leaf comes from a series of choir books made for the use of the monks of Santa Maria degli Angeli, a Camaldolese monastery in Florence, of which Don Silvestro was a member. He later became prior in 1398 The importance of the scriptorium was noted by Vasari in his Vita of Lorenzo Mon...

First E-Passports, Now E-Birth Certificates?
2009-09-01 07:05:00 Recently, in our track on e-governance and the UID, we covered e-passports and a brief article on database aggregation for the UID scheme. Now, after e-passports comes the time of e-birth certificates. Along with UID in-charge Nandan Nilekani, the Health Ministry is proposing a scheme to give health cards and birth certificates online. “We were discussing it yesterday (Wednesday) over dinner. I proposed it to him,” Dinesh Trivedi, minister of state for health, said on Thursday while inaugurating the Life Science Conclave in New Delhi. A copy of the birth certificate is quite essential and getting an official copy of it is not quite that simple. Apparently the Health Ministry is still “brainstorming” over it. They realised a transition from the current system is essential. The concept is simple – a person should be able to access the Internet and manage a printout of his birth-certificate. Trivedi had said in a news article that the e-birth certificate will...

Snakes Giving birth
2009-08-23 09:51:00 Garter Snakes Giving birthA garter snake is any species of North American snake within the genus Thamnophis. Because of the similarity in the sound of the words, combined with where people often see them, they are sometimes called garden snakes, gardner snakes or gardener snakes, or even garder snakes or guarder snakes. They are harmless to humans. Garter snakes are common across North America, from Canada to Central America, and they are the single most widely distributed genus of reptile in North America. In fact, the common garter snake, T. sirtalis, is the only species of snake to be found in Alaska, and is one of the northernmost species of snake in the world, possibly second only to the Crossed Viper, Vipera berus. The genus is so far ranging due to its unparticular diet and adaptability to different biomes and landforms, from marshes to hillsides to drainage ditches and even vacant lots, in both dry and wet regions, with varying proximity to water and rivers. However, in the ...

Birth Festival 2009 Begins
2009-08-13 05:19:00 My birth festival is in full swing and I have been burning the candle at both ends for the last two weeks. Visitors from the other side of the pond, a meal on my actual birthday that was so amazing it deserves its own post, and staying up at night staring at my computer screen and NOT writing. I think someone should do a study to confirm that overeating slows the brain making it impossible to speak or write in complete sentences. In my last post I mentioned that I was going on a date with someone who was in my memoir, I Thought I Grew Up. I was more than a bit concerned that he didn’t know about it and decided that I would wait until he was halfway through a smart cocktail to tell him. Arriving at the restaurant a bit early, I sat down at the bar, ordered a glass of wine and then pulled a book from my bag. As soon as I opened the pages my date walked through the door. He arrived on time looking rather dashing and carrying a Barnes & Noble shopping bag. A quick kiss hello an...
Shark Virgin Birth
2009-08-12 09:48:00 Shark "Virgin Birth" ConfirmedA female blacktip shark in Virginia fertilized her own egg without mating with a male shark, new DNA evidence shows.This is the second time scientists have used DNA testing to verify shark parthenogenesis?the process that allows females of some species to produce offspring without sperm.The female shark, dubbed Tidbit, died during a routine physical exam before the pregnancy was identified.A necropsy?an animal autopsy?after her death revealed she was carrying a near-term pup fetus that was about 12 inches (30 centimeters) in length.Tidbit was caught in the wild when she was very young and reached sexual maturity in a tank at the Virginia Aquarium in Virginia Beach, where she lived for eight years."The interesting thing about that was there were no male blacktip sharks in the tank for the entire time of her captivity," said Demian Chapman, a researcher with the Institute for Ocean Conservation Science at Stony Brook University in New York."So the questio...

Moore and Jane Espenson to tell stories in the form of direct-to-DVD movies such as CAPRICA and BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: THE PLAN — would it be too much to ask for you to hire a graphic designer who doesn’t phone it in?

But come’on — the box art for CAPRICA and THE PLAN — we can’t see the difference, can you? Sincerely, The TV Addict

Twitter Merchandise: Birth Of A Twitter Business Model?
2009-05-20 07:14:00 Up till now, Twitter has kept shy of officially endorsing any services or tools that promote user tweets in wearable merchandise format. However as of 18th May, 2009 Twitter has partnered with Threadless and launched a user generated crowd sourced service called Twitter Tees by Threadless. The Twitter thinking tank has clearly taken a tentative baby step in trying to formulate the first clear business model for the revolutionary micro-blogging service. Companies like TWItoShirt and Twitshirt has been providing users excellent services in creating merchandises from Twitter updates in the past. Status King even offers users to print their favourite Facebook status updates on t-shirts. And AddMerch goes one step forward and lets you print Tumblr blog pictures etc. On the other hand, at Twitter Tees, the most interesting part is the cash that the users involved get to take home. Let’s have a look at how it works. After the whole process A gets a whopping $360 in cash and $140...

Life of birth
2009-05-11 20:27:00 Sitting down wasn't as easy for her anymore. Her huge stomach made demands on her body that made it easy for her to either keep standing or sitting. She would have kept standing if wasn't for that insane throbbing at the base of her spine. As she lowered her weight, she let out a sigh of relief. It was a long day and she would be glad once it was over.The end of the day would simply mean that it would bring the day of the birth closer by that one day. Absently she rubbed her fingers over the stretched skin of her stomach. The skin seemed to be stretched to an limit that seemed impossible. It had seemed impossibly stretched two months before, and now even though it seemed physically impossible, it had got yet more stretched. Ruefully her fingers trailed to the side of her stomach, Bunched there were the hateful stretch lines that seemed horrendously disfiguring in a mirror. At least to herself. She knew that the marks would be visible once the child came out, but at present nothing...
Separated at Birth: Rachel Dratch and Edna Mode
2009-04-22 18:44:00 In our latest edition of “Separated at Birth,” we humbly present The Incredibles brilliant costume designer Edna Mode (on left) and the latest UGLY BETTY guest star, funny gal Rachel Dratch. Is it a coincidence that Dratch, who is rumored to be Mode’s newest hire when UGLY BETTY returns this April 30th looks eerily similar to one Edna Mode from Pixar’s The Incredibles? Honestly we have no idea, although, we do know someone who might. Which is why we’re posing this question to the man, the legend, the bona-fide scene stealer and original source of this pic, Michael Urie! Is Rachel Dratch and Edna Mode really separated at birth? Or, on a more serious note, was Edna Mode the inspiration for Rachel Dratch’s character? @michaelurie, if you’re reading this, feel free to tweet us an answer, send us an email, or post message in the comments below and let us know.
