The Los Angeles Times reported, "The notion that binge eating and addiction are linked is supported by brain imaging studies that show significant overlap between the brain circuits activated by a drug addict's "craving" and those of a binge eater pondering an eating jag. Researchers also find that the brains of overeaters and those with substance addictions share a common shortage of receptors for the neurotransmitter dopamine, a key chemical in the activation of reward-seeking brain circuits."

Minnesota Klingon>>Minnesota Dad Speaks Only Klingon To His Son Early child development is a hot topic among parents, just ask d'Armond Speers. According to the Minneapolis/St. Paul news blog CitiPages.com, the Minnesota man was determined to teach his newborn son a foreign language in his first three years of life. In so doing, Speers decided to only speak Klingon, the language spoken by the Klingon warrior race in the fictional "Star Trek" universe. Defending attempts to make his son fluent in the "Star Trek" language, Speers said he was interested in the child's acquisition process. Specifically, Speers wondered if his son would absorb the Klingon language as he would any other human language. Ironically, Speers insisted that he's not a Trekkie. However, he does take pride in the fact that his son was definitely starting to pick up the language. November 18 pee and popouriMEN'S URINE IS MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY THAN WOMEN'S Environmentalists can be a nutty bunch. For example, in England, the employees of the national parks system are using a compost bale to feed 400 acres of gardens and fields. This, in itself, isn't too strange.
But, they are also inviting male staff members to pee on the compost bale, as urine supposedly activates the compost and brings out the nutrients.
So, after hours, men -- and only men -- are tinkling on this bale before going home. Women employees are not allowed to visit the "pee bale" -- and it's not just about the mechanical aspect of peeing outside or preserving staff members' modesty.
Instead, head gardener Philip Whaites says it's all about chemistry. "There are obvious logistical benefits to limiting it to male members of the team, but also male pee is preferable to women's, as the male stuff is apparently less acidic."

The friends - who prefer to remain unnamed -- employed a ride-on lawnmower and crane to trim the tops of hedges in the town of Cambridge. "The Waikato Times" reports that the unorthodox technique wasn't their original plan. The men ordered a hedge trimmer to do the gardening job, but when that didn't arrive -- they used what they had, namely a ride-on lawnmower dangling precariously from a crane. The man who actually rode the mower admitted it wasn't the safest method of trimming a hedge. He and his accomplice said they'd wanted to film the stunt, put it on the Internet and see how many hits it attracted. Sadly, while they had the crane and the massive mower, they had no video camera.
