We poked around the internet a bit and found some awesome ads from other countries supporting the cause. Keep reading to see how the Netherlands, India, and Malaysia promote breast cancer awareness.

Dating Don’ts: Dating Advice NOT To Follow

Judy McGuireOctober 16, 2008 //

If you were to follow every rule (and not just The Rules) that have been written about dating, you’d be too confused to actually ever go out on any dates. So-called sexperts and relationship gurus are constantly contradicting both themselves and each other— Should you call him? How long do you wait to engage in frisky relations? Is a “MOM” tattoo a valid dealbreaker? Ask a dozen experts, get a dozen different answers.

However, there are one or two rules that everyone seems to agree on. Generally acknowledged as common knowledge, these are things that pretty much all the experts agree that you should follow like the law. Except, they’re wrong. Keep reading »

Zack & Miri Make A WHAT?: Movie Title Banned In The USA

SimchaOctober 16, 2008 //

Kevin Smith, auteur/director of such classics as the New Jersey Trilogy, “Clerks,” “Chasing Amy,” and “Mallrats,” has made a new flick, but how would you know? He can’t even tell you about it! “Zack and Miri Make A Porno” has been banned from advertising in 15 major newspapers and both network and cable channels. The LA Dodgers asked to even have the trailer stopped from airing during their games! Now, the movie is left solely to advertise in print, but it’s still a battleground. Weinstein Co., the film’s distributors, were puzzled when the Motion Picture Association of America called their ads “highly sexually suggestive and not suitable for general audiences.” What could be so offensive about 2D ads with no nudity, four letter words or defaced religious characters?

    The “Project Runway” Season Finale Live Blog

    Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 15, 2008 //

    Heidi-ho! (Get it?) So, in 10 minutes or so, the season finale of “Project Runway” starts. Couple o’ things you should know — I am popping my live-blogging cherry tonight, I’m drinking a glass of wine, and may be temporarily detained paying for the burrito I just ordered. BUT during the commercials, I’m planning on flipping over to the Presidential Debate for little POLITICAL INTERLUDES so that not a second of your precious time is wasted. Oh, and listen up, if you are watching the show with me, please, oh please, contribute to the convo with your comments! It will be fun and make me feel like less of a crazy person, talking to herself. Awesome.

    FINAL THOUGHTS: This obviously did not go as planned. We had some server cacheing problems. If it makes you feel better, I was so panicked trying to get this to work, my burrito went cold. Next time we will, uh, have the kinks worked out of this whole “live blogging” thing. And yes. LEANNE WON! (Sorry West Coasters…) Keep reading »

Every year, Cosmo filters through thousands of applicants to find the hottest bachelor of each state (our own blogger Leonora Epstein is part of the process!).

    HPV: Not Just For Crotches Anymore

    SimchaOctober 15, 2008 //

    According to a new study, HPV is moving on up…to mouths! That’s right, just when you thought Gardasil and Cervarix solved all your problems, now you have to worry about what else you’ve been opening wide. Since the ’70s. throat cancer cases have doubled, and the research shows HPV is to blame, with 39% of all occurrences caused by the human papilloma virus. Before you go cutting your man off from his favorite foreplay, listen to this: men are 35% more likely than women to develop oral cancer from HPV. Sheesh, making a new man go downtown may be riskier than you both think! Still, there’s more bad news — as of yet, there is no way to test male genitalia for HPV or anyone’s throat to see if they’re a carrier. So, it’s a roll of the dice and doctors fear you may even be able to contract the virus from kissing. There goes all the fun! Since this throat cancer link is a new revelation, the cervical cancer vaccines haven’t been tested or proven to prevent it. So, deep throat, you might want to use a condom for oral sex or just give that random stranger a handy and call it a night! [ABC News] Keep reading »
