ScienceAlert... Love may not be a drug, but it can certainly feel like one. Being in love floods our brains with chemicals that can induce feelings of everything from pleasure to intense focus and attachment. But being in love isn’t all in our heads: these chemicals can cause reactions throughout the body, which might help explain that tingly-all-over feeling we get when we see a loved one, or the 'high' we feel after we’ve met that special someone. Take a look at how love affects our brains and bodies: 1 2 3 4 5 6 This article was originally published by Business Insider.

And now the strangest tax protest we’ve ever seen or will see — free sex at a brothel. The owner of the Pascha brothel in Salzburg, Austria, tells the Kronen Zeitung tabloid he’s no longer willing to be “the tax office’s pimp.” “In the last decade, I have paid taxes of almost 5 million euros,” owner Hermann Muller says. “The problem is the tax office wants more and more, and they are not cracking down on illegal street and apartment prostitution.” Ah… so he’s got a regulated racket and he’s angry about upstart competitors. A familiar story. The Pascha brothel: Offering more atmosphere than “illegal street and ...

Want... Coffee beans excreted by elephants are currently the toast of high-end hotels in Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong, according to the Chinese-language Taiyuan Evening News. After a previous craze for coffee beans passed by civets, a new craze for coffee beans harvested from elephant droppings has drawn new attention. These beans are particularly expensive, with one cup costing US$13. In times of drought, elephants will actively seek out coffee beans; however, they have to eat 33 kilograms of coffee beans to produce 1 kg of usable beans in their movements, hence the prohibitive pricing. He says that elephants often move their bowels while bathing in the river, which means that ...

Mike Huckabee: “I Wish I Could Have Felt Like a Woman in High School” PMAs soon as Bruce Jenner revealed himself as a woman on the cover of Vanity Fair, liberals across the nation were there to cheer him on. And of course you can guess what happened as soon as they heard normal, conservatives protesting the strange transformation. In their words, anyone who doesn’t subscribe to the idea of transgender as the new normal is “despicable.” That’s right, people who protest the idea of men dressed as women being allowed in the girl’s room are despicable. And when Mike Huckabee made the argument against transgender transformations they tried to put him on ...

A growing number of TV news reporters say over the past year, there has been an increase in the level of sexually explicit taunts they face while covering stories on public streets. The disturbing trend involves hecklers running up and yelling, “F–k her right in the pu–y” into microphones as reporters stand in front of the camera. “The acronym ‘F her in the P’ is constant,” NBC4 Southern California reporter Beverly White told TheWrap. “Total strangers, typically young men, shout that profanity like they have a right, and I beg to differ. It is deeply offensive and it’s infuriating.” The obscene interruptions started to gain notoriety ...

RT... Northern Ireland’s sex trade ban has left prostitutes in fear of “danger and poverty.” In an in-depth interview with RT, one sex worker challenged the idea of the law spreading to England, claiming “too many” influential people visit prostitutes. Paying for sex became illegal in Northern Ireland under the Human Trafficking and Exploitation Act 2015 last week. Prostitutes who rely on their trade as a main source of income are now being forced to travel to work across the borders to survive.

To make matters worse for the village, which is in Finistère in the very north west France, the population of 987 people is on the decline. In an effort to save the school, village heads announced last week that they would sell off ten plots of land at around 800sqm each for just €1 per square metre ($1.13). Yes, you read that ...

The brutal aftermath of a violent confrontation last Friday between the police and a man in Salinas, Calif., was captured on camera, uploaded to YouTube and shows what the police chief there described as “horrific” and “inflammatory.” The video, which was shot in a shaky minute-and-a-half, does not show what caused several officers to repeatedly strike the man, Jose Velasco, 28, with batons while he writhed on the pavement in the middle of the street. Just a few feet away, several lanes of stopped traffic watched the scene unfold; the video appeared to be shot through the rolled-down window of one of those cars.
