Catholic-run hospitals have been accused of refusing to refer sexual assault victims to rape crisis centres that prescribe the morning-after pill.
I can understand why the Catholic church might take that position, but really, the experience of the '60s when Catholic women flocked to the pill should tell them something.

Circumcised? Need a foreskin? Have no fear, Viafin's synthetic turtleneck's got you covered:
Being circumcised affects the natural operation, appearance and sensitivity of the penis. During recent years much medical research has been carried out in several countries into the function and purpose of the foreskin. There is now conclusive medical evidence that a circumcised penis with the glans exposed has less nerve receptors and is less effective than a naturally covered penis.
Over the years the exposed glans becomes less sensitive. There is well-documented evidence which shows that this can, and often does, have a disastrous effect on sexual performance, its consequences, and ultimately, on self esteem.
The SenSlip range of artificial retractable foreskins is available in different sizes, to allow for variation between individuals. With ten sizes we want you to be fitted correctly right from the start. (See fitting chart)
Welcome to Viafin-Atlas
(Thanks, Bill!)

A mouse species, which was though to have been extinct for 150 years, has been found living in a drought-ravaged national park in New South Wales' far west.
I'm not sure that the world needs more mice, but it is always exciting when a new or lost mammal is found. Or rodent I guess.
