Evolution of the school desk.
Seriously, why? Now I have to have a very large desk with enough room for my laptop, external monitor and a clean area for reading…

In keeping with our coverage of the GOP’s astounding cluelessness about women’s bodies (see here and here), we’ve taken a moment to compile the seven worst things Republican lawmakers have said about abortion in the past couple years.
The 7 Dumbest Things GOP Politicians Have Said About Abortion Recently
Hi there! So, are you watching this new show “Girls”? Y’know, the one that pretty much every single person on the internet seems to be talking about? On last week’s episode, Hannah finds out she has HPV and tries to figure out where she might have gotten it. When she asks the guy she’s sleeping with about it, he gets all offended and tells her he was just tested for HPV. Later, when Hannah meets up with her ex, he tells her there’s no HPV test for guys, so the other guy was obviously lying.
Turns out, Hannah’s ex-boyfriend is right. There isn’t an HPV test for cisgender men yet. And even though HPV almost always goes away without causing any problems, anyone with it can still spread it. HPV is really common, and most HPV infections have no harmful effect at all. But some types of HPV can cause genital warts, and others can potentially cause cancer. Here’s some good news: anybody can get the HPV vaccine. The vaccine works best in people who haven’t yet had sex or been exposed to HPV, which is why it’s not often given to people older than 26. But no matter who you are or how old you are, talk with a health care provider to find out if the HPV vaccine could help you.
good thing to know!

For students at two-year schools, transferring can be a challenge
As more students in Texas decide to begin their college education at two-year schools, transferring to a four-year university can create several obstacles.
Sometimes credits won’t transfer or applying for financial aid can be tricky. Leaders at community colleges want uniform standards for transferring to a public university, but officials at four-year universities say such policies would hurt autonomy.
