In a bid to make more sense of how attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) emerges, experts have recently conducted a new study on twins.

Since the Ancient Greeks, and possibly even before, there has been an ongoing debate as to which effects are the most obvious in a human being.

Giving birth to twins is a relatively rare phenomenon, in that it does not occur in half of the births around the globe or more. And when many twin births happen in the same, small village in a certain country, India, to be precise, researchers start wondering as to what the causes for this might be. According to a n... |

According to a new scientific research reported on Monday, the number and type of friends each person has is an entirely gene-determined fact.

I had a feeling Jennifer Lopez was one of the meanest bitches out there (and I use that seemingly rude expression in an entirely metaphoric fashion) - and now there's even more proof to make that point. I have a feeling someone should have a conversation with the whimsical Latino diva and clear up a few issues, ... |

Break out the champagne and let the world know, Jennifer Lopez has finally given birth to her twins late last night! I can almost feel tears coming to my eyes. Kidding.

My, I do wonder how Angelina Jolie manages to do it all: actress, mother, humanitarian... someone check for the latex multicolored suit underneath all those black dresses she usually wears, 'cause it seems that she's Wonder woman in disguise.
