News Dump 
Federally Funded Pregnancy Centers Mislead Teens about Abortion Risks Rep. Henry A. Waxman reports that federally funded pregnancy resource centers mislead teens about medical risks of abortion ... Something many feminists (like myself) have been saying for years.

Love Parade Returns to Berlin!!! And I wish I could have been there...

Protestors rally outside Mississippi's last abortion clinic

A Bridge in Paris is named after Simone de Beauvoir ... Who is one of my absolute favourite feminists. Not only did she start the second wave of feminist movement largely with her book The Second Sex, she also wrote some great novels like She Came to Stay and was an activist for the elderly in France.

The Guerrilla Girls pop up after being on display in London for the Tate Modern's rehang.

Stem Cell Reseach has half a chance. I find it *very* telling that the White House still plans on vetoing despite the large amount of votes in favor. It shows the lack of actual representation going on in favor of the majority - or as I usually put it, pig-headedness of the Bush admin.

Indian Rape Victim is Shunned By Village

African Priest urges married and punished priests to return to their duties - as married men.

"Father Forgive Me" (later renamed "Baby, the Stars Shine Brite") was started in the hope that a confessional blog would be entertaining reading as well as intellectual. After being neglected for some years is now, rather anonymously written in the hopes of hashing out thoughts in a somewhat intelligent manner. Aside from the writer of this blog, I am a university student majoring in Women's Studies and minoring in English at a prominent Catholic university in Middle America. A dedicated liberal - I also throw and participate fully in raves and rave culture from DJing, to lights and sound crew, to doing homework in legal libraries I'll be there - in true Riot Grrrl style: usually a miniskirt, combat boots, and wildly dyed hair. Aside from considering law school and entering politics I hope to start an organization wherever I end up providing a safe place for teenage girls (and boys) and helping their voices be heard as well as providing information on sex, condoms, and anything under the sun that kids may need. I am currently engaged to a wonderful man and hope to be married sometime around November of 2008.
