A research team led by Prof. LIN Nan from the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found that during sentence processing, the neural activity of two canonical language areas, i.e., the left ventral temporoparietal junction (vTPJ) and the lateral anterior temporal lobe (lATL), is associated with social-semantic working memory rather than language processing per se. The study was published in Nature Human Behaviour on Sept. 21. Language and social cognition are two deeply interrelated abilities of the human species, but have traditionally been studied as two separate domains.

Credit: Asian Hockey Federation/Hockey India KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 14 (Bernama) -- The Speedy Tigers need to artfully control the tempo of the match when facing teams like India that play a high-intensity game, if they wish to end the wait of over two decades to play at the Olympics, says the national men's hockey squad captain Muhammad Marhan Mohd Jalil. In fact, he believes that based on the performance against world number three India at the 2023 Asian Champions Trophy (ACT) on Saturday, the national side would be able to create history and become champions of the Asian Games for the very first time this September.

TACLOBAN CITY–In yet another move to put an end to the insurgency problem in Eastern Visayas, the operations of the Leyte-based Army brigade were extended to include some parts of Samar Island. Brigadier Gen. Noel Vestuir, the commanding officer of the 802nd Infantry Battalion (IB), said their jurisdiction expanded to some parts of Samar and Eastern Samar provinces beginning June 1. 'It is only a new area, but there is no major adjustment in terms of what we want to achieve. The southern part of Samar and Eastern Samar provinces could already be considered generally peaceful,' he said on Saturday.

SAN SALVADOR — Police in Mexico City arrested one of the most wanted leaders of the notorious Mara Salvatrucha gang accused of multiple crimes in the United States, officials said on Tuesday, in a fresh blow to one of Central America's most violent criminal groups. Jose Wilfredo Ayala, 55, was arrested after a tip from a neighbor, according to the Mexican capital's security ministry. The ministry said it had discovered Ayala – believed to be second-in-command of the gang commonly known as MS-13 – was using a false identity and hiding in Mexico City and in two areas a short drive north in Hidalgo state.

The Australia Institute's Centre for Future Work MEDIA RELEASE | 3 August 2023 Australia risks being left out of lucrative new markets for renewable energy-related manufacturing unless the government provides an urgent, domestic response to match powerful incentives introduced by the U.S and several other industrial nations. The finding is published in a new report released today by the Australia Institute's Centre for Future Work, as part of the 4th National Manufacturing Summit, being held in Canberra.

Pollution from on-site sewage disposal systems and injection wells is impacting coral reefs worldwide. Through onsite testing and reef surveys at Puakō, Hawaiʻi Island, researchers from the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo, UH Mānoa and other organizations found sewage pollution was moderate on the offshore reef from seeps, and that water motion mixed and diluted the pollutant. The study 'Detection and impact of sewage pollution on South Kohala's coral reefs, Hawaiʻi,' was published in Marine Pollution Bulletin in March 2023, and led by UH Hilo alumnus Devon Aguiar, who holds a master of science degree from the tropical conservation and environmental science program.
