  • This year's Nobel Prize in medicine will go to American/British scientist John O'Keefe and Norwegian scientists May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser for their research on how brain cells communicate. 

  • The Supreme Court is back in session today. First up: Heien v. North Carolina, concerning a traffic stop that led to a drug-trafficking arrest and the extent of Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure. 
  • Demonstrators visited the St. Louis Symphony Saturday, unfurling banners and performing a "Requiem for Michael Brown" during the show's intermission. The demonstrators, who had all purchased symphony tickets, then left the theater chanting "black lives matter." (See video here.)
  • The average American gives about 3 percent of his or her income to charity; the most generous live in Utah and attend church regularly. 
  • About 70,000 people gathered in Paris, France, yesterday in support of les valeurs traditionnelles, such as denying homosexual couples legal access to fertility treatments. 
  • In Oregon, strip-club dancers and employees are working with state legislators to draft new regulations for the industry.
