Scientists studies on love activities in Human brain

Dr. Lucy Brown, a professor in the department of neurology and neuroscience at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, and her colleagues believe that the caudate and the ventral tegmental areas in our brain are responsible for most of the emotion we have about love. They found out that when we are in love, ventral tegmental floods the caudate with dopamine that makes us high, just as if we have taken cocaine.

Few interesting points learned from the team,
That brain in love and brain in lust does not look alike.
That falling in love makes someone becomes extra sexy.
That men’s brain are more active in the area of visual stimuli.
That women remember things about men is her physical ability to choose a good husband and father, as when they are in love, not in lust.
When we did crazy thing for love, we are high on dopamine.

Belgium court rules Google infringed news site’s copyright

Google just lost a legal copyright case with Belgium, which rules that the number 1 internet search has to remove all link to the site. That Belgium news site claims google never seek permission to link, nor have they paid for the use of site content, hence the copyright infringement. Quote,

“"It is important to remember that both Google Web Search and Google News only ever show a few snippets of text," Reyes added. "If people want to read the entire story they have to click through to the web publisher's site where the information resides. We believe search engines are of real benefit to publishers because they drive valuable traffic to their websites."

Many experts predict that this may have profound impact on how internet site link and quote each other, as well as blog site. (Link)

Maybe they did not know who drives the entire Internet's traffic. Maybe they will proceed to sue Wikipedia next.

Valentine festival culture talk

I came across a very interesting read today about some festivals Japanese and Korean celebrated.

Japanese has a White Day, also celebrated in Korea one month after VD, which women/men give white gift like marshmallows to whom he/she received VD gifts. It is getting quite popular in Hong Kong now.

Korea has Black Day one month after White Day, not consider as unlucky, where single people get together to eat noodle with black bean sauce to commiserate their singledom.

So, if you have a Korean or Japanese partner, you can return their favor next month.

Go to Wikipedia and find out more about this day.

Mice born from Human cell

Scientists from Rockefeller successfully cloned mice from an adult Human cell. The method was called Nuclear Transfer, sound like some magic word.

Excerpt,
“Greco, Guasch and Li compared the cloning efficiency of adult skin stem cells with that of more differentiated skin cells and also with cumulus cells -- the cells that surround a developing oocyte and have traditionally been the preferred cell type for nuclear transfer. The stem cells gave the best efficiency, yielding 19 pups, nine of which grew up into normal, healthy, breeding adult mice.”
