Famous Hindu Holy Man in Hiding After Appearing in 'Sex Film'

Times Online-- Angry villagers have ransacked the headquarters of one of India’s most famous “swamis” — or Hindu holy men — after local television stations broadcast footage that appeared to show him cavorting in bed with two women.

Paramhamsa Nityananda, who claims two million followers in 33 countries, was not present when the villagers stormed the sprawling retreat about 19 miles (31km) from the southern city of Bangalore on Wednesday, according to local police.

They said that 100 officers had been deployed to protect the ashram, which is home to many Indian and Western devotees, and has been visited by several prominent Indian politicians.

Scientists develop hangover-free booze

Sky News-- The dreaded morning-after feeling could be a thing of the past after scientists in Korea came up with a technique that allows drinkers to avoid a hangover.

A team of researchers in South Korea added extra oxygen to drinks and found that the body was then able to metabolise the booze quicker and eliminate the alcohol quicker - cutting down the after effects.

Healthy humans were given 240ml and 360ml drinks containing 19.5% alcohol by volume - all with different amounts of oxygen added.
