Welcome back after the holiday weekend, everyone. Here are this morning’s nanos:
* The nose knows where it’s at — when it comes to sex — loss of sense of smell changes brain activation in straight men when exposed to female pheromones
* Humans are by nature optimistic — 89% percent of individuals worldwide expect the next five years to be as good or better than their current life — otherwise you’d just shoot yourself
* Do graphics and diagrams help students learn history? — one study says no — but such things do help in science
* Super memory club — old folks with no dementia and playing bridge — “We play for blood,” says Ruth Cummins, 92
* Massage stimulates brain development — in baby rats and in humans — who wants to massage a baby rat?
