Wal-Mart did a turnaround today and announced all company pharmacies will carry the morning after pill (Plan B birth control.)

However, it will allow its pharmacists who morally object to providing the pill not to have to dispense it. They can either refer the customer to another pharmacist or if none is available, to a nearby store.

Why do pharmacists get to refuse to provide the pill? Do supermarket cashiers get to refuse to ring up meat because they are vegetarians? If the drug is legal, they should have to provide it– or find another job.

moon_monkey writes “New Scientist has a story about a nimble, four-legged robot that can recover its balance even after being given a hefty kick.” From the article: “The project is sponsored by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), who want the robotic pack mule to assist soldiers in terrain too tough for vehicles. Ground-based soldiers often need to carry 40 kilograms of equipment. Raibert says the latest version of BigDog can handle slopes of 35 - a steeper gradient than one in two. The hydraulics are driven by a two-stroke single-cylinder petrol engine, and it can carry over 40 kg, about 30% of its bodyweight. The robot can follow a simple path on its own, or can be remotely controlled.”
