Sympathy and tea

Article Abstract:

Relations between North Korea and Japan are improving, and the Workers' Party, which rules North Korea, has agreed to resume negotiations on the resumption of diplomatic relations between Japan and North Korea. The Japanese coalition government is likely to increase its popularity by improving relations with North Korea. Sympathy has been expressed by North Korea over the abduction of ten Japanese nationals several years ago. Relations between the two countries also worsened after a North Korean missile test in 1998, but the US has persuaded North Korea to shelve another planned test.

Coming out in sympathy

Article Abstract:

Expectant fathers can experience changes in their hormone evels, according to research by University of Newfoundland's Anne Storey. She found changes in testosterone, prolactin and cortisol levels, and that hormone levels change especially dramatically in men with wives due to give birth and exposed to stimuli from babies. Men appear to prepare for birth in a similar way to women, though it is questionable whether the hormonal changes are enough to trigger behavior related to cleaning babies' bottoms, and staying away from bars.
