From The Kansas City Star By Edward M. Eveld As marriage proposals go, what this one lacked in romantic ambience it more than made up for in surprise.

Junk-Food Pregnancy Diets ‘Produce Obese Offspring’

From InTheNews.co.uk Women who eat junk food while pregnant and breastfeeding could produce children who are more likely to be overweight or obese, a new study warns. Research carried out at the Royal Veterinary College, London, suggests that pregnant and breastfeeding women should not indulge in fatty, sugary and salty foods while they are 'eating for two'. The impact of unhealthy diets in new mothers and mothers-to-be is thought to harm offspring's normal control of appetite and produce an exacerbated taste for junk food. Compared to rats given normal feed, rats that were fed a diet of processed junk food including doughnuts, muffins and sweets during pregnancy and lactation were found to produce offspring which overate and had a preference for junk foods rich in fat, sugar and salt. Writing in the British Journal of Nutrition, the research team argue their findings have implications for humans. Tango’s Take

The Sweet Science Just Got Sweeter: Couples Boxing

From The New York Times By Marcelle S. Fischler ADAM FORD, mild-mannered and trim at 170 pounds, doesn’t feel odd hitting his petite wife. How else will she learn to instinctively duck or perfect her combinations? Steve Schwartz and his wife, Jackie, on the heavy bags. Still, three years ago, when the couple started sparring together under a trainer’s supervision, throwing any punches at each other didn’t come easy. He’s still extra cautious. He sends pillow-fight-strength shots to her shoulders rather than use his full force during their weekly matchups at the Printing House Fitness and Squash Club in Greenwich Village. “Although I kind of paw at her and hit her to keep her honest, it is obviously pretty light,” said Mr. Ford, 31, a criminal defense lawyer. “She, however, is really able to unload on me.” Tango’s Take

Girls Who Like Girls Who Like Boys: Sexuality Labels Are Losing Their Relevance

From ABC News By Susan Donaldson James Pop culture loves the recreational lesbian -- the woman who dabbles but doesn't stay the course. Lesbian turncoat Anne Heche left comedian Ellen DeGeneres for a man. Lush-lipped Angelina Jolie last week swore off former S&M mates and girlfriends in deference to her relationship with the uber-masculine Brad Pitt. And Britney Spears, of the televised Madonna kiss, is now the subject of tabloid rumors for reputed dalliances with female porn stars and loyal personal assistant Shannon Funk. The stars who flaunt their so-called lesbian status then change their minds may make it difficult for a new generation of young women who reject the dogmatic definitions of sexuality. Tango’s Take

Study: Abortion Pill Poses No Risk for Later Pregnancy

Women Who Want Children Should Have them in their 20s, Institute Maintains

From Associated Content The Luce Policy Institute said in a statement on Monday that, while 75% of college freshmen say that their most important objective is to have a family, women who become educated, enter into a high-powered career and think they can always get pregnant later on in their 40s once they are financially successful, have been misled by politics. The Institute, which promotes the success of conservative women, insists that a woman's most fertile time is in her 20s, and women who want to have families should attempt to get pregnant in their 20s; the politically incorrect truth, says the institute, is that the main cause of infertility in women is simply advancing age.

Sienna Miller On The Prowl

Sienna Miller must be on the rebound from dating (or not dating) Sean Combs. Or not. Who knows with her? Anyway, Cosmopolitan is reporting that she’s dating Matthew Rhys from the TV show Brothers and Sisters. Excellent. And Celebrity-Gossip.net is reporting that she’s dating actor Sean Bean. You may know Bean as the guy that plays vaguely menacing UK (British or Northern* Irish) characters. He tried to take the ring from Frodo in the first Lord of the Rings movie. We have no idea what to believe with Sienna Miller any more. We do know that we’ve loved her since she co-starred in the brilliant (but canceled) Fox show Keen Eddie. We hope she finds love, but we’ve about had it with the S Miller rumor mill.
