Hungarian researchers want to reassure the human companions of dogs that they do care about you. However, they don't particularly care for your face. In fact, CNN reports dogs can't even distinguish the front of your head from the back of it. Instead, dogs use more information from smell or larger parts of the body to identify people. Despite lacking specialized neural machinery to process faces, dogs nevertheless excel at eye contact, following gaze, and reading emotions from faces. The researchers say that as dogs domesticated, they learned that reading facial cues meant survival, even though they lacked a specific region in the brain to do so.
The UN rights chief calls for the creation of a new "mechanism" tasked with preparing criminal indictments over atrocities committed in Myanmar, amid allegations of genocide against the Rohingya minority. SOUNDBITE

This man is Pavel Yusov, and he's spent the last five days suspended in water with his body wrapped in a waterproof suit. It's all part of an experiment called 'dry immersion' and the main goal of the project is to find out more about the effects of zero gravity on the human body. Scientists from Moscow's Institute of Medical and Biological Problems measure the physiological effects of microgravity after five days, conductin a full medical examination on the subject, similar to the checkups on cosmonauts and astronauts after they return from space. Even short exposure to microgravity causes the human body to lose muscle tone and decreases the ability to operate in earth gravity, but dry immersion experiments hope to help space travelers overcome these effects.
