The feeling of hunger itself may protect against Alzheimer's disease, according to study published today in the journal PLOS ONE. Interestingly, the results of this study in mice suggest that mild hunger pangs, and related hormonal pathways, may be as important to the much-discussed value of "caloric restriction" as actually eating less.

► Abigail & Brittany Hensel - The Twins Who Share a Body. Although they are two completely separate people, these accomplished teens share a body and have just two arms and legs between them.

Born in 1990, the girls have been brought up in a small, tightly knit community in Minnesota, almost completely protected from prying eyes and inquisitive stares. To their friends and family, they are distinct people with very different personalities, needs, tastes and desires. But to the outside world they are a medical mystery -- particularly given the fact that they can do virtually all the same things as their friends, including playing the piano, riding a bike, swimming and playing softball "Their personalities make them inspirational," says their mother Patty. "They never give up; anything they want to do, they go out and do it."

The medical world is keen to find out how two separate brains and nervous systems can work in such a perfectly co-ordinated way, but the twins and their family have always resisted non-essential medical tests. "The family want to treat them as though they are just like everyone else," says Joy Westerdahl, the girls' doctor, who admits that it is a mystery how their unique physiology functions.

As they enter adulthood, the twins are likely to leave the haven of their home town and face the wider world. In preparation for that time, they have taken part in this intimate documentary to show the world what it is like to be joined for life.

■ Video: Two-headed monster snake scares Moscow Zoo visitors. Video: RT Ruptly's exclusive, for licensing contact

A rare two-headed albino snake is on display in Moscow Zoo. Scientists say it is so rare it would not be able to survive in the wild. The snake was born six years ago and zoo keepers hope it will live for another six years. It is unusual for such a reptile to live for more than 12 or 15 years due to the genetic mutation which makes it more susceptible to diseases. Zoo keepers have to feed the two-headed reptile two times a week, which is more than the other species of reptiles at the zoo.

More than 40 years later, she is finally opening up about one of the most important and complex relationships in her life: her relationship with her mother, Vivian Baxter. When Angelou was three years old, Baxter sent her and her brother away to be raised by their grandmother in Stamps, Arkansas. When Angelou returned to live with Baxter 10 years later, she refused to call her her mother, referring to her only as "Lady". Angelou's seventh autobiography, Mom & Me & Mom, chronicles how Lady eventually became Mom. It was a long journey with many bumps along the way, but as Angelou tells Michael Maher, it is a story of the healing power of love.

■ Author Iain Banks has terminal cancer

In the elevator I heard them talking softly, almost whispering to each other. "Well, if we had been convicted by a physician with cancer, so when we finished the treatment, be prepared to get out of the hospital through its back door"

I glanced at them. Two mothers aged less than 50 years. I was in no mood to see them more than two seconds, let alone joining in their conversation. Whoa! Absolutely not. 1,2 mothers. 1,2 seconds, 1,2 pairs of legs. No. 3. Ah. I just felt the elevator doors opened longer than usual. Ah, come on! Hurry opened! Open the door! Go! Somebody please help, help open the door!

As soon as the elevator doors opened, I immediately stepped out. At first I thought my legs had gone very quickly, but I was wrong. Drops of water in my eyes is the winner of the fastest time. Their voices had been left behind.

(So, what next, Cisca? You do not explain anything, at least, why you are in the hospital? When? You said you got off the elevator. To come to visit or come home, hm?)
