I do not use the word 'indecipherable' lightly. Some stores actually demand that employees enlisted as barkers absolutely refrain from using actual words." http://kotaku.com/5484581/japan-its-not-funny-anymore?skyline=true&s=i "Players earn points and power-ups by completing real-world tasks like volunteering, making business contacts or researching an issue, then submitting evidence of their work online.

[...] It is well known that chimpanzees have a propensity to kill one another; so it seems that society as a whole ought to take action to prevent chimpanzees from violating one another’s rights to life by policing chimpanzee communities." http://www.practicalethicsnews.com/practicalethics/2010/02/shall-ape-be-allowed-to-kill-ape.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+PracticalEthics+%28Practical+Ethics%29 The researchers adjusted for socioeconomic status, the fact that people with mental and behavioral problems are more likely to smoke, and for the possibility that nicotine withdrawal symptoms during IQ tests might cause lower scores, but even then, it turned out that the lower your IQ, the more you smoke. "The researchers looked at 20,211 18-year-old men recruited into the Israeli military. IQ steadily dropped as the number of cigarettes smoked increased, from 98 for people who smoked one to five cigarettes daily to 90 for those who smoked more than a pack a day. They also compared IQs for 70 pairs of brothers in the group in which one brother smoked and the other did not. Again, average IQs for the non-smoking sibling were higher than for the smokers." http://www.reutershealth.com/archive/2010/02/23/eline/links/20100223elin001.html David Cope’s software creates beautiful, original music.
