Babies Think Like Adults
The finding shows short term memory in babies works similarly to that in adults, who routinely break information into chunks to remember more of it. The discovery indicates that this memory-boosting trick does not seem to be learned, but may be an innate human ability.

Poem by anonymous
If I tell you that I love you,
Its probably a lie,
If I tell you that we're friends,
you a dime a dozen
If I give you a complement,
Dont listen,
If i tell you I am grateful,
I cant tell you I mean it,
But,
If i give you my heart,
I am yours forever,
If i tell you my secrets,
Your more then a friend,
If i say that you beautiful,
It comes from my soul,
If i tell you a promise,
I will go to the death to keep it
What I say and what I feel,
You may never understand,
And for that I will warn you,
I am impossible to keep,
Harder to contain,
Have no love for one over another,
My words will never rhyme,
And my voice will never sing
If you want my heart,
Try all you want,
but in the end you see,
you will only get hurt.

Italians are fun
Angry neighbour shot undies
An angry Italian was arrested for taking pot shots at his neighbour's undies with a rifle.
Massimo Lazzaretti, 69, allegedly let fly with a legally owned hunting rifle he had at his home in Carnago after the 56-year-old woman had hung out her washing.
A police spokesman said: "The two neighbours had fallen out some time ago and he said he thought by leaving bullet holes in her underwear he would frighten her enough to stay away from him.
"He succeeded in frightening her but only to the extent that she called us immediately."
Lazzaretti has been charged with endangering public safety.

Hostage released for pizza
Hostage released for pizza
An Australian prison guard held hostage for two days was released after a ransom demand for pizzas was met.
Up to 20 inmates at the Risdon Prison in Hobart, Tasmania, seized the guard in a protest over conditions in the maximum security jail.
Initially they made 24 demands to authorities, but eventually gave up their hostage after agreeing to 15 pizzas, Coke and garlic bread instead.
"At midnight, the final sticking point with the inmates was that they were requiring pizzas to be delivered. Our staff member was negotiated out with the delivery of 15 pizzas," Graeme Barber, Tasmania's director of prisons, told The Advocate newspaper.
The guard is recovering from his ordeal at home.
