Men Assume Sexual Interest When There May Be None :P

Even when they're seated across a table from each other in a first-time, five-minute conversation, a man tends to sexualize a woman and incorrectly assume sexual interest on her part, new research finds.
For men: "Don't think every women you meet is attracted to you." This caveat especially holds true for men who think of themselves as sexy or sexual. For women, the best advice "may be understanding that more often than not he is going to be thinking in sexual terms. You may walk away thinking the conversation went well or not and he may still be thinking in those [sexual attraction] terms."

First official death from chronic fatigue syndrome.

Chronic fatigue syndrome has been given as an official cause of death – apparently for the first time in the world. CFS, which is also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), has a variety of devastating symptoms ranging from extreme weakness, inability to concentrate and persistent headache. Sufferers can have the disease for years, but its cause remains controversial, with fiercely opposing views from psychiatrists on one side and biologically minded physicians on the other.

Sleep position gives personality clue.

If you want an insight into somebody's true personality, then try to catch a glimpse of the way they sleep. Scientists believe the position in which a person goes to sleep provides an important clue about the kind of person they are. "What's interesting is that the profile behind the posture is often very different from what we would expect."

THE SCIENCE OF HAPPINESS!

When people think of "science," they naturally think of atoms, planets, robots — things they can touch and see. They know that subjective experiences such as happiness are important, but they believe that such experiences can't be studied scientifically. That belief is dead wrong.

The hive mind is for the most part stupid and boring. Why pay attention to it?

"The Wikipedia is far from being the only online fetish site for foolish collectivism. There's a frantic race taking place online to become the most "Meta" site, to be the highest level aggregator, subsuming the identity of all other sites".

Die Handlung wird seinem inteligibeln Charakter beigemesen, er hat jetzt, in dem Augenblicke, da er lügt, gänzlich Schuld. (Kant)
A acção é atribuída ao carácter inteligível do homem e agora, no momento em que mente, ele é totalmente culpado.
