text: Home > Mental health > News 12 December 2012 Words have feelings According to Annett Schirmer and colleagues from the National University of Singapore, emotion helps us recognise words quicker and more accurately straight away. 0 Ask CyberShrink » Blog Bipolar journey » Talk Heart to heart forum » Quiz Are you a hypochondriac? » Gallery of abuse 10 ways to beat stress eating Does the emotion in our voice have a lasting effect? According to Annett Schirmer and colleagues from the National University of Singapore, emotion helps us recognise words quicker and more accurately straight away. In the longer term however, we do not remember emotionally intoned speech as accurately as neutral speech. When we do remember the words, they have acquired an emotional value; for example words spoken in a sad voice are remembered as more negative than words spoken in a neutral voice. The study, looking at the role of emotion in word recognition memory, is published online in Springer's journal Cognitive, Affective & Behavioural Neuroscience. In anger, sadness, exhilaration or fear, speech takes on an urgency that is lacking from its normal even-tempered form. It becomes louder or softer, more hurried or delayed, more melodic, erratic or monotonous. And this emotional speech immediately captures a listener's attention. Schirmer and colleagues' work looks at whether emotion has a lasting effect on word memory. How the study was done A total of 48 men and 48 women listened to sadly and neutrally spoken words and were later shown these words in a visual test, examining word recognition and attitudes to these words. The authors also measured brain activity to look for evidence of vocal emotional coding. Their analyses showed that participants recognised words better when they had previously heard them in the neutral tone compared with the sad tone. In addition, words were remembered more negatively if they had previously been heard in a sad voice. The researchers also looked at gender differences in word processing. They found that women were more sensitive to the emotional elements than men, and were more likely than men to recall the emotion of the speaker's voice. Current levels of the female sex hormone oestrogen predicted these differences. Schirmer and team conclude: "Emotional voices produce changes in long-term memory, as well as capturing the listener's attention. They influence how easily spoken words are later recognised and what emotions are assigned to them. Thus voices, like other emotional signals, affect listeners beyond the immediate present."

Menus aren't quite so easy to navigate as they were previously but then that's only because there's so much more to do now and as trade-offs go, this is one we're quite happy to abide. [JPN Import]
The sparse menus aren't up to Nintendo's usual standard and the game is lacking in an abundance of minigames, but with a storming collection of songs covered and fun and challenging gameplay, Donkey Konga 2 is perhaps the best party game ever. [NGC Pocket]

BubbleM.Jun 17, 2006I'm not really sure. When I saw it I thought it would be as good as DDR but when I played it the controls were tough and it the music (that I've never heard of) goes too fast for me to figure out the controls. But it's a kind of fun game and I like the story to it. But now I kinda wish my sister bought me Donkey Kong Jungle Beat for my B-Day.… Full Review »
RyanM.Jun 24, 2005I finally got a chance to psot this review, over my busy life and my busy days playing this genius title. I may be a bit bias towars this game, so take it with a grain of salt. I find Doney Konga 2 to be pure undeniable fun. The game ranges greatly in difficulty so everyone can find a level they enjoy and can play without excessive frustration. The songs are definitely not as varied as what we saw in Konga 1, but still what IS placed in the title are mostly fun and upbeat songs, great for the genre in which this game is. I find it a bummer, that the original artists are not doing the songs in this game, but I did not lose much sleep over it, for I was too busy tearing through mini-games and unlocking all those infamous Dixie notes. The Dixie notes are a great asset, where you are given hints and tricks and clues gradually, and unlocking every note is a major psychological reward. So basically, Donkey Konga 2 is great fun, but it is most definitely not for everyone. Fans of the previous have no choice but to pick this up, and rythm game fans should check out the previous entry before getting Konga 2. The rack list is more defining, and the improvements are little, but it is still great fun for anyone willing to give it time and patience.… Full Review »
JohnS.May 22, 2005Why the lame music? I had both the EU and US version of the original game and the tunes were so much better! Especially the EU version with it's classic end electronic pieces. This (US) version of Donkey Konga 2 contains the weakest music I've heard for a very long time.… Full Review »

It was a week of friends, family, baseball and Jimmy Fallon!
It was a week of friends, family, baseball and Jimmy Fallon!
Beloved comedian and actor Robin Williams died this morning (Aug. 11) at age 63, his publicist confirmed.
In a completely tragic and unfathomable turn of events, beloved actor and comedian Robin Williams has died at the age of 63. Williams was found in his home in California earlier today, as confirmed by the Marin County Sheriff's department.
All our favorite stars showed up at the 2014 Teen Choice Awards and, man, did they work the red carpet!
To my mind, this premise is totally absurd.It's about as ridiculous as Rosie O'Donnell and me running a 100 yard dash. Anyway, Jimmy Kimmel challenged Kim Kardashian to a diaper changing contest
The Turtles' transformation from cult comic book characters to mega-popular cartoon superheroes began in 1987 and was overseen by writer David Wise. If you're a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, chances are strong that Wise is the man you want to thank.
As a writer and story editor for the original animated series, Wise was present from the show's inception to its conclusion, writing and overseeing the vast majority of the series. To listen to his version of events is to understand where the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came from.
If you think the news can scare you with reports of what's going on in the Middle East or the latest on healtchare reform, then get ready to be really terrified.
America's favorite sitcom will go on for at least three more years. Production on "The Big Bang Theory'' was delayed for about a week while Warner Brothers Television negotiated new contracts with principal actors Jim Parsons, Johnny Galecki, and Kaley Cuoco. It's speculated the trio received a hefty pay raise fr
Earlier this week 'Sons of Anarchy' went a bit weird in casting 'Glee' star Lea Michele for the seventh and final season, but the final season poster will turn your stomach even more. We're reasonably sure the human skull isn't supposed to be growing out of one's back, but Charlie Hunnam's Jax is sporting one in the full poster for 'Sons of Anarchy' season 7! Ouch.
Contract negotiations might keep the No. 1 show on TV off the air.
If you think your job is boring, CNN's Karl Penhaul was about 5 seconds into a LIVE report from Gaza when a bomb hit right behind him. Imagine if something like this happened near your cubicle, that boring job is not so bad after all is it?
If you're one of the New Orleans Saints' younger fans, it's unlikely you realize you're being treated to history. Since 2006, the Saints have the 2nd best regular season record in the NFC, tied for #4 overall. The Who 'Dats have posted a 55-25 record over the past 5 seasons, reaching the playoffs four times. The lone exception was the "Bounty" season of 2012.

Labour is slating the Government's consultation process over Christchurch schooling as a "sham".
It tabled an Education Ministry document yesterday suggesting the consultation period will only be five to six weeks, coinciding with school holidays and senior exams.
Meanwhile, Education Minister Hekia Parata admitted the only people she "consulted" before announcing the proposal to close schools and merge others across Canterbury were Education Ministry staff.
In Parliament yesterday, Labour repeatedly tried to pin Parata down on whom she had consulted before announcing the decision.
Parata initially told Parliament she and the ministry had been "going through phases of consultation which are becoming ever finer grained".
"So those consultations were at the very high level - the first lot in October.
"They led to Directions for Education, which was released in May, from which we got further submissions and that has allowed us to put these proposals before these particular schools."
Pressed by Speaker Lockwood Smith to answer Labour's questions over "who" she had consulted, Parata responded: "Drawing from the information that arose through the over 700 submissions we received, as a context, drawing from the data that has been collected by school-by-school assessments and drawing from ministry advice, these next set of proposals have been developed for consultation."
Smith intervened again to ask why Parata would not say whom she had consulted, and told her ministers were accountable for who they had consulted. Parata responded: "To pedantically use that term 'consult' then I consulted specific people."
After objections from Labour, Parata said: "I consulted the submissions that had been submitted, I consulted with ministry staff, who in turn had consulted with ranges of individuals across the greater Christchurch, Waimakariri and Selwyn districts."
Labour associate education spokesman Chris Hipkins said the minister's comments sent a clear message to Cantabrians that the Government's consultation process was "a total sham".
"Hekia Parata began an 'open consultation' on September 13 but confirmed in the House today that she will be writing to school boards within days to formally begin the legal process to implement her plan to close and merge schools."
Hipkins tabled documents he said suggested the ministry envisaged a formal consultation process of only five to six weeks - which coincided with school holidays and senior student exams.
"There is no way the Government can get meaningful information from teachers, parents and children during the exam and holiday period.
"This whole process looks like a sham and sounds like a sham because it is a sham."
NZEI president Ian Leckie said the process was simply ''window-dressing''.
Leckie said the government must reveal the reasons driving significant changes before the community can realistically respond to consultation.
''They've got the process wrong,'' he said.
''The community needs to know what the Government's thinking is on the whole of Christchurch.
''First, we need a proper consultation process over the whole-of-Christchurch picture. And, only once that has been completed, can we then talk about the future of individual schools and early childhood centres.
"That's why we're calling on the Government to put a halt to the process, admit they got it wrong, and start to genuinely engage with the people of Christchurch on the big picture.''

How to Handle Inkjet Print Cartridges?
- How to handle inkjet print cartridges
Experts expect more than 53 trillion digital pages will be in existence by the year 2010. As more people get their news and information from the web, the demand for faster, simpler, and cheaper means of printing out the information they want will continue to grow as well. One of the least expensive and highest quality options available to home and small business users is the inkjet printer. These units employ easy to maintain print cartridges rather than expensive laser toner or cumbersome, old-fashion ink ribbons. These print cartridges perform admirably as long as they are handled properly.
- Keep print cartridges sealed in the original package until they are needed. Store them upright in a temperature controlled room between 60 to 78 degrees F. If you keep a supply of print cartridges on hand, be sure to check the "Install By" date that is printed on the packaging. Rotate supplies so the oldest cartridge will be used first.
- Remove the print cartridge from its packaging immediately prior to installing it in the printer. Hold the cartridge upright with the label on top. Hold the cartridge only by the black plastic sides. Remove the protective tape from the bottom of the print cartridge. Do not touch the print nozzle or copper contacts.
- Insert the print cartridge into the appropriate carriage slot. Align the print heads if necessary.
- Store partially used ink cartridges, such as a photo cartridge, in a print cartridge protector by sliding the cartridge into the protector at a slight angle. Press the cartridge forward until it snaps into place. An airtight plastic bag can be used as a substitute for a print cartridge protector.
- Remove empty or expired print cartridges as soon as possible. Place the old cartridge in a plastic bag for disposal or recycling.
Tips & Warnings
- Dropping or jarring print cartridges can cause temporary or permanent printing problems.
- Do not attempt to reattach the plastic tape to the print cartridge. Reattaching the tape damages the print cartridge.
- Never insert any foreign object into the print cartridge. Such action could result in damage to the cartridge and could cause ink to be discharged onto you or your clothing.
How to Refill an Inkjet Cartridge?
Printers have become more affordable, but replacing ink cartridges is still a strain on the budget. To save money, you can refill and reuse inkjet ink cartridges instead of buying new ones. This might seem like a small step in the grand scheme of computer technology; but it can save you hundreds of dollars over the lifetime of your printer. Follow these steps to learn how to refill an inkjet cartridge.
- Purchase an ink cartridge refilling kit. Such kits can be found online, at electronics stores and even in department stores. These kits are much less expensive than the replacement ink cartridges, and they come with everything you'll need to get the job done.
- Carefully remove the empty ink cartridge from the printer. It's best to hold it by the top, handling only the plastic parts of the cartridge. Do not touch the metal backing of the cartridge.
- Check the empty cartridge to find out how much ink it holds. This will be important to know before you refill it.
- Create a small hole in the top of the empty ink cartridge using a sharp pointed object.
- Use the syringe from your refill kit to extract the appropriate amount of ink from the ink container.
- Put the tip of the needle into the hole in the top of the empty cartridge, and slowly inject the ink. It's very important to do this at a slow and steady pace.
- Return any unused ink from the syringe back into the bottle or ink container. Then clean the syringe so that it can be used again.
- Reinstall the refilled ink cartridge in your printer, using the instructions that came with your printer. Avoid touching the metal areas of the cartridge.
- Make sure the ink cartridge is working properly by running your printer's testing and cleaning cycles several times. If you're not familiar with this process, check your printer's manual for instructions. Repeat this step until you are satisfied with the performance of your refilled ink cartridge.
Tips & Warnings
- Refill cartridges over the sink in case to prevent messes.
- Use different syringes for different colors.
- The hole you make in the cartridge does not have to be repaired. The cartridge should work fine with the hole.
- Injecting ink too quickly into the cartridge may cause air-related problems such as foaming and bubbling. This could damage the ink cartridge.

WASHINGTON -- The punch line is at least as old as the eldest baby boomer: "I didn't get a pony."
Dirty clothes -- the constant, consistent chore -- is still one of the most odious banes for women. Jingles for commercial tout the truth that "mama keeps the house clean…," but what the woman must face every day is soiled linen! Most men's use of the same temperature for everything and their employment of the "smell test" – if it doesn't smell too bad, wear it again -- may explain the female's acceptance of the laundry chore. No matter the cause, the modern woman has no idea how different keeping presentable clothing was in earlier days.
In 2005 when their city drowned, the staff of the New Orleans Times-Picayune stayed in it longer than common sense and simple prudence would dictate.

They finally left huddled in newspaper delivery trucks, water up to the headlights, decamping to Baton Rouge, 75 miles away, where they went right back to reporting the news.
Often as summer officially begins, the General Assembly is wrapping up its business for the year.

At various points since joining the C-I, people have asked me whether I'd ever be interested in working for a larger newspaper or for a paper in a larger market.
When I retired, one of my friends asked me what I was going to do with my time. I told her I was already volunteering and working out.

I have also met many charming, amazing, and different people there. I had the same choice that most have -- vegetate or activate. I chose to activate when family matters allowed. My life is much fuller because of my involvement.

In 2008, a group of graduate students from the University of South Carolina's Public History Program produced a study entitled, "The Camden African-American Heritage Project." It was the product of a student group assignment conducted in 2005-06. The students were assisted by many Camden residents in their search for the history of African-Americans in Camden from the Colonial period through the era of civil rights. Though able to spend only one semester researching and writing, the students pulled together an admirable overview of the lives of African-Americans here. In their final recommendations they suggested, among other things, that an ...

This poll is missing a *neither* option

3DS has my vote :P
This poll is missing a *neither* option
Vita for me purely based on games (more adult ones) but the price sucks
Nintendo DS Lite.
After that, no GBA port. Sod that! ¬.¬
Neither, id rather buy a DS Lite or a PSP Slim, both sub £60 both with more and better game selection. PSP + PS3 store = PS1 games on the go and dirt cheap Duo cards
But, I have a 3DS. And no PS3.
Also, as the PSP is no longer getting firmware updates, there is a executable custom firmware [which disables itself at the next boot] which will allow for screen capture/video software, homebrew, emulators and straight up .iso/.cso
piracylegit backups.
You can also patch the .iso/.cso to change languages. [Which is awesome for the Japan only games.]
DSLite also have homebrew functionality.
3DS doesn't. And if you try there's a chance Ninty will deliberately brick it. [Not sure on Vita, I think it's the same as the PSP.]
GF has both, I wouldn't personally buy either, but on the spec of the kit and the games that are out/coming soon I would choose the PSVita, purely as it has titles like LittleBigPanet, Uncharted... and a new Katamari game

As fans of The Daily Show are surely aware — and as Bill O'Reilly pointed out in his recent appearance — longtime host Jon Stewart is taking the summer off to direct a movie. And it's not even a comedy, but an adaptation of BBC journalist Maziar Bahari's memoir about his 118 days in an Iranian jail in 2009.
Everyone is nervous about this. Stewart has never directed a feature-length movie before, and he's never even had much success acting for the silver screen. The Daily Show producers and Comedy Central are probably biting their nails, too, about how the show will fare when John Oliver sits down at the host's desk on June 10. To prepare viewers (and presumably remind them why Oliver was tapped as Stewart's replacement), The Daily Show compiled a highlight reel from Oliver's six years as the program's Senior British Correspondent. (Watch above.)
And Oliver knows he has (metaphorically) big shoes to fill. When Stewart gets back, "I'm just trying to make sure this building is not on fire both physically and metaphorically," he tells The Hollywood Reporter. "That is the aim, just to keep the show on the air for a few months." He continues:
The ratings are going to go down. Ice is cold, and the ratings of this show are going to go down in the summer. Add to that the fact that I'm here, so you'll have your regular summer decline and that will become a more elemental nosedive. I just need to Sully myself — you know, like Chesley Sullenberger — I've got to at least land this show in the water. So I know the ratings are going to go down, I just have to make sure that they don't collapse. [Hollywood Reporter]
Oliver, now a permanent U.S. resident, also tells The Hollywood Reporter that he gets "nostalgic for British negativity." New York has "an inherent hope and positive drive," he says, but "when you go back to Britain, everybody is just running everything down. It's like whatever the opposite of a hug is." As a bonus, here's Oliver staunchly defending his home country — and its right to maintain its moats — from Stewart:
- After Ferguson: Stop deferring to the cops
- 43 TV shows to watch in 2014
- Ferguson riots were terrible — but this racist reaction was worse
- Is it now OK to have sex with animals?
- How to be the most productive person in your office — and still get home by 5:30 p.m.
- 7 grammar rules you really should pay attention to
- Don't argue about politics this Thanksgiving. Just don't.
- In Ferguson, Michael Brown lost his life — and America's police lost the benefit of the doubt
- The hilarious hypocrisy of Republicans complaining about the imperial presidency
- What would a U.S.-Russia war look like?

I would have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by this performance. It takes place in an office building and you are literally within an arms reach of the actors. They were superb in their roles. I would definitely tell my friends about this.
Running time: 80 minutes with no intermission._
A 19-year-old boy has just stood trial for the fatal stabbing of his father. "He doesn't stand a chance," mutters the guard as the 12 jurors are taken into the bleak jury room. It looks like an open-and-shut case — until one of the jurors begins opening the others' eyes to the facts.
"This is a remarkable thing about democracy," says the foreign-born juror, "that we are notified by mail to come down to this place — and decide on the guilt or innocence of a man, … a man we have not known before. We have nothing to gain or lose by our verdict. We should not make it a personal thing."
But personal it does become, with each juror revealing his or her own character as the various testimonies are re-examined, the murder is re-enacted and a new murder threat is born before their own eyes! Tempers get short, arguments grow heated, and the jurors become 12 angry people. 12 Angry Jurors is adapted for the stage by Sherman L. Sergel from the original television show by Reginald Rose.
