Science puts a face to honesty

This computer-generated image was compiled by scientists who asked more than 100 people to pick out facial characteristics they indentify with trust and honesty. Among the favoured features were a full, rounded face, thin eyebrows, bright eyes, small nose and no facial hair. Untrustworthy characteristics emerged as a sharp jawline, thick eyebrows, eyes wide apart, wide nose, stubble and small mouth with full lips. The Alibi Trustworthy Study was carried out by Dr Chris Solomon of the University of Kent.

Stealth extinction.

Photo Savor the flavor. Twenty seconds after biting into a bell pepper, discriminating smellers will notice a hint of sulfur, which then lingers in their noses for a few minutes. Why the initial delay? Run-of-the-mill mouth bacteria turn odorless sulfur compounds naturally found in peppers, onions, and white Sauvignon grapes into volatile compounds--known as thiols--that travel to the nose, according to a paper to be published in the 12 November issue of the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. The study also found why the characteristic smell stays with us for so long: Saliva traps the thiols after they're produced and then controls their gradual release to the nose.
