Former professional baseball player and manager Pete Rose, 81, on Sunday dismissed a question from a reporter about alleged sexual misconduct. Rose, Major League Baseball’s all-time hits leader, was accused in 2017 of having a sexual relationship with a minor during the 1970s. “I asked Pete Rose what he would say to people who say his presence here sends a negative message to women,” Philadelphia Inquirer reporter Alex Coffey tweeted on Sunday. “No, I’m not here to talk about that,” Rose reportedly responded. “Sorry about that. It was 55 years ago babe.” I asked Pete Rose what he would say to people who say his presence here sends a negative message to women. His response: “No, I’m not here to talk about that.

The event was hosted by the school’s University Programs and featured six local drag artists.

Early humans had more sex than expected with one ancient hominin
If you think your love life is crazy, wait until you hear about what early humans got up to. New research shows that thousands of years ago, our ancestors were having children with another hominin known as the Denisovans—according to new data published Thursday in Cell . The comingling came in two distinct waves, thousands of years ago. These two periods help explain an odd pattern. People from countries in the Pacific Ocean, including Papua New Guinea, can chalk about 5 percent of their DNA up to Denisovan sources. Chinese and Japanese people also carry some Denisovan DNA, too, though not as much. But among East Asian populations, researchers could discern, that genetic material had to have come from two different populations that were distantly, but not closely, related. The two waves of sexual relations explains why the East Asian gene pool appears to have two separate sources of Denisovan DNA. These hominins were first discovered in 2008; the first paper about them was … [Read more...] about Early humans had more sex than expected with one ancient hominin
Rugby star Gareth Thomas hid the fact he had HIV, then gave it to me, ex-partner claims
Gareth Thomas, the former rugby star hailed as a gay sporting pioneer, is being sued in Britain's High Court for allegedly "deceptively" transmitting HIV to a former partner. Thomas, 48, has been accused by Ian Baum of hiding his HIV status when the pair were a couple then, knowing he was carrying the virus, "failing to take reasonable care" to ensure that he did not pass on the infection. It is understood that Thomas will vigorously defend the legal claim. Baum, who had an on-off relationship with Thomas from 2013, alleges that he noticed the rugby player taking pills when they first became a couple, but was told these were "vitamin tablets" and the labels had been ripped off bottles.

American socialists fly pro-Putin flags at conference—viral video
A video showing American socialists flying pro-Russia flags has gone viral on social media. The Center for Political Innovation, or CPIUSA, which describes itself as an "educational think tank focused on the construction of American socialism" and is not affiliated with the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), shared the video from the opening of a conference dubbed "Unite Against the Imperialists" in Chicago, Illinois, on its Twitter account on Saturday. The video began with a man and woman, both wearing red berets, walking towards a stage, one carrying the U.S. flag and the other holding a Soviet victory banner . They stand on the stage, hands held aloft as music plays— the left-wing anthem, the Internationale followed by the Star-Spangled Banner— and are moments later joined by three others who stand in front of the stage. One held up China's flag while another carried the flag of the Moscow-backed self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic in eastern Ukraine. The woman … [Read more...] about American socialists fly pro-Putin flags at conference—viral video
