The Second Brain
We've often heard of mind control, but what about gut control? The truth is, we don't actually have another brain hiding out in our bodies helping us make decisions, but our gut can influence the decisions we make. As AsapSCIENCE explains, sneaky microbes in our stomach produce both dopamine and serotonin, manipulating our cravings for their own benefit. So maybe you shouldn't always go with your gut.

Jack Archer Jetsetter Tech Pants
Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example. Crafted from premium Rebound fabric sourced from Japan, they're stretchy, wrinkle-free, anti-odor, and stain-resistant, making them great for travel. The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.

This video annotates all the button presses by Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg on a pole position lap at the 2016 Baku City Circuit.
The Origin of Dogs
Dogs have been man's best friends since the dawn of time, or have they? Originating from the gray wolf, humans began domesticating the wild predators as pets thousands of years ago in western Eurasia. But new studies are showing that the wolves were not only domesticated once, but twice before they became the companions we know and love, explored in this animation by Ed Yong.
