Flibanserin's developer and some women's groups, accuse the F.D.A. of gender bias for approving Viagra and other drugs to help men have sex, but none for women.

"Women have waited long enough. Gender equality should be the standard when it comes to access to treatments for sexual dysfunction."

The drug has been rejected by the F.D.A. on the grounds that its very modest effectiveness was outweighed by side effects like sleepiness, dizziness and nausea. 

Chairwoman of Even the Score, said the side effects of flibanserin, like sleepiness and dizziness, were not so serious. By contrast Viagra and some other drugs for men can cause blindness, penile rupture and other serious side effects.

Women on the drug trial said they had experienced less distress and a meaningful change. And some have said the drug had a big effect. Just a thought.

Sen. Chuck Grassley defended his party's tax plan this weekend by saying that plans to reduce or eliminate the estate tax mean that people will use their money more wisely.

"I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing, as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies.”

The Iowa senator's comments were widely shared on social media and were criticized by a number of Democratic strategists for their harsh portrayal of how people spend money.

How are people going to attract Booze and women to see a movie?

An Active-Duty U.S. Navy commander was sentenced to more than a year in prison for his involvement in the investigation of Singapore-based defense contractor Leonard Glenn Francis, also known as "Fat Leonard."

Bobby Pitts, 48, had pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. by attempting to protect Francis, who owns Glenn Defense Marine Asia (GDMA), according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

Pitts admitted that he had learned the U.S. Navy was investigating whether Francis was over-billing the government on ship husbanding contracts in 2009 and 2010. At the time, he was the Officer in Charge of the U.S. Navy's Fleet Industrial Supply Command (FISC) in Singapore.

A total of 28 defendants have been charged in connection with the investigation so far 19 of whom have pleaded guilty, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
