Extreme Last Minute Shopping

The nice thing about e-commerce on charity sites is that I can do my shopping at the very last minute.
The 24th is the last day of my gift challenge. I’ll post your gift on Christmas morning once the final numbers are in.

Well, They Don’t Come with Coupons….

Will KanYe West Sing about Shooting Blanks? Men on the BCP?

Up until now, the only birth control options for men were condoms, a vasectomy and - as any KanYe West lyric will tell you - the threat of 18 years of child support payments.
Good news! The era of the fantasy “gold digger” is almost over. The male birth control pill is in the final stages […]

To Market, To Market

Here in Germany, the tradition of Christmas markets is my favourite part of the season. Little huts appear in town centres, each selling sweets, or roasted sausage, decorations, cookies, glüwein, or any other holiday goodie.
