It's a bit less straightforward that 'HIV is transmitted through breastmilk'. My Mom is the Matron in charge of the Paediatrics unit in a teaching hospital in West Africa so she has a lot of information on the 'Baby Friendly' initiative. This is how she breaks it down when she explains why HIV positive moms are not…

Their response to the natural outrage of only 'opening' casting to White actresses was bad enough... But the showrunners rub salt into the wound by spray-tanning her? If they wanted someone that colour why didn't they just... open auditions to people that colour? Instead of restricting the candidates to White girls…

@LostBedStuy: Your mom was the exception to the rule. It's a scientific fact that the number of ovaries a baby girl is born with decreases exponentially throughout the cause of her life and that her capacity to carry a child to full term and go through labour successfully peaks in her mid-twenties.

So when are they going to make Tintin in the Congo?

@serafinadistoria: What I want to know is why Jezebel isn't pimping this movie at all? There is no mention whatsoever in any of the articles or dirt bag write-ups about an action movie starring one of the hottest talents in Hollywood right now. I don't want to jump into conclusions about racial profiling... but I…

@aLynHall: If you are going to disallow god because you can't poke him with a stick, you'll need to revise your beliefs about a lot of modern scientific theory.

This is so creepy. By giving the specimen 'faces', they look like dissected samples i.e. captured merman/mermaids that had been killed and cut open and not speculative guesses at all.

@bubbly*pop: That's because the Harry Potter books are not pro-feminist books, at all. Sometimes, I even regard them as anti-feminist. Sure, there are some interestingly three-dimensional characters in this story. But let's look at some of the messages Rowling puts across to us, shall we?

@FrankN.Stein: So why not Maggie Q's NIKITA?

@justvisiting: I am not sure that Dollhouse should be an example in that list. I don't disagree with your comment in general, just that specific item.

Please tell me these are promo pics and the Angels don't have to wear uniform white when they are on active duty. Plus... where is the Lucy Liu character? Not impressed.

I don't think I have anything more to say. We've really had an interesting discussion and reached a mutual understanding which was very nice. I'm 'following' you now, if that's OK with you. :D Cheers!

I never knew there was such a thing as a Summer Glau Curse until now but really, this article actually builds a case for one more than anything. It shows a pattern where, with no exception, Glau's presence in a show has caused it to end within the same season. In fact, the only show that lives through 2 seasons of…

Oh that certainly makes sense. If the emphasis is more on the 'super' than the 'hero', then I can certainly see why you will class Edward Cullen as a superhero. I remember being so disappointed by the events of NEW MOON, when the Cullens were more interested in fighting the Vamp army to save Bella and the possibility…

But having superpowers isn't all that it takes to make a superhero. Edward Cullen has never done anything 'heroic' for the world or even a general population of people, all his heroic feats are just to keep Bella safe. Superman is very powerful but he has Kryptonite. Batman is a human being with a lot of money and…

Edward Cullen is not a superhero. He has never used his powers for the good of 'mankind', only for Bella Swan. Immortal heroes have always worked better in fantasy.

I think you meant, too bad 'Tyler' is apparently catching on to Caroline's role in killing his uncle, 'Mason'. #tips #corrections

@rudecherub: I wasn't talking about WW 'appealing' to youth, I was talking about WW's 'youth'. Immortal Amazon come down from Heaven to wage war on behalf of the US of A is precisely the reason why WW has been stuck in development Hell.

It's been confirmed. Anne Hathaway is Catwoman. #observationdeck #catwoman
