Brazil begins impeachment process; Canada's native suicides emergency in northern Ontario; how LSD affects the brain - a scientific answer based on brain scans

A congressional committee in Brazil has recommended the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff for allegedly manipulating government accounts. The move, after a stormy, day-long debate, sets the stage for a crucial vote in the lower house of Brazil's parliament later this week. 

A state of emergency has been declared in a remote indigenous community in northern Ontario that has literally lost the will to live.

What does the hallucinogenic drug LSD do to the brain? For the first time a group of researchers have a scientific answer to that, by taking brain scans of volunteers who had been given the drug.
