...Just what these brain differences mean is still not clear. Ever since 1991, when Simon LeVay first documented differences in the hypothalamus of gay and straight men, researchers have been struggling to understand what causes these differences to occur. Until now, the brain regions that scientists have come to believe play a role in sexual orientation have been related to either reproduction or sexuality. The Swedish study, however, is the first to find differences in parts of the brain not normally involved in reproduction - the denser network of nerve connections, for example, was found in the amygdala, known...
...about to let you in on a secret I've not shared with anyone, not even my nearest and dearest. If I'm going to succumb to that occupational hazard of movie reviewing - the noddies - it's most likely to occur in the hottest and highest-action sequences. I know this is counterintuitive. After all, those are the parts of the movies that are the noisiest and the most visually splashy - all flash cuts and zip pans, encouraging a lot of rapid eye movement.

Scrambling to avert that grim scenario, aid officials and political leaders from about 40 countries converged this week at the Rome headquarters of the U.N.'s Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) to craft a rescue plan for the world's food supplies. By all accounts, they have arrived late to the crisis. The U.N.'s World Food Program (WFP) calls this emergency a "silent tsunami" that could have dire consequences for more than 100 million of the world's poor...
Optimist feminists, on the other hand, don't question that a woman can become President or that it will occur in their lifetime. When these women look around, they see themselves making up half of business- and medical-school classes. They are law partners, CEOs and university presidents. And they don't want to rally behind a female candidate simply because she is a woman...
