Ostriches
Ostriches can get so fixated with their owners that they fail to mate with their own kind.
Captive emus also become attracted to humans. Pat Sauer of the American Emu Association said: ?There can be problems when an emu falls in love with you. I do not think it is as common as with ostriches.?

Levitra
Levitra challenges Viagra.
"Analysts estimate that around 30 million men are affected by impotence in Europe and that, despite Viagra's success, only about 15-20 percent of the world's 150 million sufferers are currently being treated."

Weird
Coroner believes that suicides among young people are often related to heavy use of cannabis.
Maybe young depressed people are more likely to smoke dope, otherwise this story doesn't make much sense to me.

Portfolio diet
"The diet is based on a low-fat vegetarian regimen that emphasizes foods shown individually to be beneficial -- soy, soluble fiber, plant sterols and almonds. Sources of soluble fiber include oats, barley, legumes, eggplant, okra and Metamucil."
It reduces your cholesterol by a 'staggering' 10 percent and doesn't it sound yummy!

No safe havens for troubled tankers
"With oil from the sunken tanker Prestige still polluting the beaches of Spain and France nearly four months after the vessel foundered, governments are again considering the question of providing safe havens for ships in trouble."

Ban Christian films
A New Zealand parlementary committee wants Christian films, critical of homosexuals, banned.
"The government administration select committee issued a report yesterday critical of a 2000 Court of Appeal decision that upheld the right of a Christian group, Living Word, to distribute two American anti-gay videos.
The committee, chaired by Labour MP Dianne Yates, said that the Living Word decision was "unacceptable" because it had the effect of allowing "hate speech" to be expressed despite the Human Rights Act and other laws."

Cruel and unusual punishment
A possible life sentence for a repeat offender, for example a shoplifter, is not cruel and unusual punishment.
"Upholding California's ``three strikes, you're out'' law, a divided U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday concluded that locking up criminals for decades or even life for petty crimes such as stealing videos, bicycles or golf clubs does not amount to cruel and unusual punishment."

Mezcal
Some people do like mezcal.
"Mezcal has a terrible image. It's fiery stuff, real rotgut, with a worm floating in the bottom of the bottle -- at least, that's what most people think. Because mezcal sounds like mescaline, the psychedelic drug, it's surely hallucinogenic."

A leading British scientist fears genetic apartheid.

Old rich guys
Why do young women like old rich guys.
"First, the fact that they are old suggests longevity in their gene pool. Second, wealth indicates alpha male qualities. Third, the fact that they are rich and old suggests alpha male qualities so strong that they are sustainable throughout the already established long life. The danger is, with a rich young man, that he might be an alpha flash in the pan; the stamina and commensurate value of his alpha-ness has not been established."
