Pro-Life Pharmacies Will Not Fill Your Birth Control Prescription

Amelia McDonell-ParryJune 16, 2008 //

DMC Pharmacy in Chantilly, Virginia, will sell everything from cold meds to contact solution when it opens this summer, but if you want condoms, birth control pills, or any other form of contraception, you’d better head in the other direction. The “pro-life pharmacy” sticks to a strict policy of not offering its patrons contraception or anything else that “interferes” with the procreation process. Virginia doesn’t have laws which require pharmacists to dispense prescriptions written by a physician, but luckily, there are at least five other pharmacies (pro-choice ones, we guess!) within spitting distance.

What Strippers Should Tell Their Parents

Catherine StrawnJune 16, 2008 //

The Pussycats Private Adult Entertainment business in Albany, NY, has closed after being evicted from its space in a mini-strip mall. Apparently, on the portion of the lease where the leasee states what operations will take place on the property, the Pussycats’ owner wrote “in-store modeling for clients.” And actually, when you think about it, that’s what stripping is: women modeling clothes, however tiny, for whatever client happens to be seated in front of them.

    Watermelon Is Vitamin-Filled And Yummy

    Catherine StrawnJune 13, 2008 //

    Whenever I eat watermelon, I feel like I’m not really eating anything — watermelon is the fruit equivalent of celery. But nutrition experts say that the juicy fruit has tons of Vitamin A and C, as well as lycopene, an antioxidant that might help prevent cancer and cardiovascular disease. Oh, and spitting seeds helps develop muscles in your lips. (I made up the last one, but it seems like it could be true, doesn’t it?) [Newswise] Keep reading »

    Friday The 13th: Tim Russert Dead & R. Kelly Acquitted

    Amelia McDonell-ParryJune 13, 2008 //
  • Sigh. Tim Russert died of a sudden heart attack at work today. The Meet The Press host was only 58 and seemed to be really enjoying covering the exciting 2008 election. I am sad because my Sundays are not complete without him, especially this Sunday, Father’s Day, which he would have undoubtedly spent with his wife and son and his beloved dad, Big Russ. [NY Post]
  • R. Kelly was acquitted on all child pornography charges, because of an absence of a mole or something. [ENews]

    I Dream Of Jeannie Coming To Theaters, But Hopefully Not So Sexist?

    SimchaJune 13, 2008 //

    From Broadway to Hollywood, the entertainment industry is all about remakes. Most of the time, the threat is not staying true to the original (um, the upcoming Smurfs movie that’s going to be live action?!). But in the case of the I Dream of Jeannie remake, our fear is it actually resembling the misogynistic capers of the early 60’s anti-feminist classic. Now, far be it for we NASA-loving Frisky gals to smack talk an astronaut in the space program heyday. However, the fictitious Major Nelson is a totally ungrateful do-bag that Jeannie calls “master.” Ick. Plus Jeannie never gets credit for always saving the day and she clearly runs the show! Although, perhaps there’s hope for the remake to right the wrongs of the antiquated TV show. Slated to write the screenplay is Mulan’s Rita Hsaio. So fingers crossed, she’ll empower this woman too.
