Dogs can smell stress in humans – and it alters their own behavior. University of Briston researchers say they found that our pet canines experience “emotional contagion” from the smell of human stress — leading them to make more “pessimistic” choices, and affecting their ability to learn. Previous research in humans suggests that the smell of a stressed person subconsciously affects the emotions and choices made by others near them, which led the researchers to wonder if the same is true with dogs.

A man legally has legally changed his name to “Literally Anybody Else”, in order to run for US President.

By peeing in the shower, you can save about 1,160 gallons of water a year.
Many of the stories coming out of the Paris Olympics have been about the poor water quality in the Seine River. But the pools used for competitions might be just as bad, because, according to multiple Olympic swimmers, everyone pees in there. Lilly King, a 3-time US Olympian, said: “I’ve probably peed in every single pool I’ve swam in. That’s just how it goes.” Many athletes say the chlorine in pools makes any pee unnoticeable. In addition, swimmers agree that it’s important to stay hydrated up until their race time. As a result, bladders can be full. Add to that tight swimwear and pre-competition nerves, and, well, you sometimes gotta do what you gotta do. Many swimmers adhere to an unofficial code of conduct, wherein whenever possible, they pee when no one is nearby. As 4-time medalist Cullen Jones explained: “You never want to swim through a warm patch.
