Thousands sign up to experience magic mushrooms as Oregon’s novel psilocybin experiment takes off
EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Psilocybin tea, wind chimes and a tie-dye mattress await those coming to an office suite in Eugene to trip on magic mushrooms. For roughly six hours, adults over 21 can experience what many users describe as vivid geometric shapes, a loss of identity and a oneness with the universe.
Epic Healing Eugene — Oregon’s first licensed psilocybin service center — opened in June, marking the state’s unprecedented step in offering the mind-bending drug to the public. The center now has a waitlist of more than 3,000 names, including people with depression, PTSD or end-of-life dread.
No prescription or referral is needed, but proponents hope Oregon’s legalization will spark a revolution in mental health care.
Colorado voters last year passed a measure allowing regulated use of magic mushrooms starting in 2024, and California’s Legislature this month approved a measure that would allow possession and use of certain plant- and mushroom-based psychedelics, including psilocybin and mescaline, with plans for health officials to develop guidelines for therapeutic use.

SCIENTISTS FIND THAT GETTING NAUGHTY HELPS PROTECT AGAINST COGNITIVE DECLINE
KNOCK THOSE BOOTS, Y'ALL! YOUR BRAIN MAY THANK YOU.Good news, everyone! According to a recent study published in The Journal of Sex Research, regularly gettin' down to some quality hanky panky goes a long way to protect senior citizens against cognitive decline.
The study utilized data from The University of Chicago's National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSLHA) — described as the "first nationally representative study of the intersection between social and intimate relationships and healthy aging" by the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center (NORC) — to determine whether older adults' sex lives could be linked in any way to cognitive decline as they age

"...Katy Perry’s history with the elderly and real estate is no secret. Her first victim was an 89 year old nun, Sister Catherine Rose Holzman, who died in court trying to fight Perry over the purchase of her convent in Los Feliz. Sister Holzman’s final words on this earth were “Katy Perry. Please stop.”
More recently, KP’s been fighting another octogenarian in court, trying to buy the home of an 84 year old veteran with Huntingdon’s Disease who claims he was on painkillers, recovering from major back surgery, when Katy’s contract was presented to him.
Anyhow, it seems her reign of terror might soon be over thanks to a proposed bit of legislation that’s gaining bipartisan support in the States: The Protecting Elder Realty for Retirement Years Act.
a.k.a. The Katy PERRY Act..."

Spanish clergy sexually abused more than 200,000 children, inquiry estimates
Ombudsman says Catholic church’s response to cases ‘insufficient’ and calls for creation of a reparations fundMore than 200,000 minors are estimated to have been sexually abused in Spain by the Roman Catholic clergy since 1940, according to an independent commission.
The report did not give a specific figure but it said that in a poll of more than 8,000 adults, 0.6% said they had been sexual abused by members of the clergy when they were children. This figure equates to about 200,000 of Spain’s adult population of about 39 million.
The proportion rose to 1.13% – equating to more than 400,000 people – when including abuse by lay members of the church, Spain’s national ombudsman, Ángel Gabilondo, said at a news conference called to present the findings of the report.

MILAN, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Silvio Berlusconi's family has halted monthly payments that the late former prime minister had guaranteed to each of 20 female guests at his so-called Bunga Bunga parties, two legal sources said on Friday.
The sources confirmed reports published in Italian newspapers on Friday, adding that the family also sent two of the women a letter telling them they would have to leave housing provided for them by Berlusconi by the end of the year.
