Similar properties Apparently Adil Human Chimp

WASHINGTON - New research reveals that chimpanzees have a similar one with human nature. Yerkes National Primate Researcher of the Research Centre at Emory University, Atlanta, found that these primates have a sense of fairness or justice like human nature.

Reported by the Telegraph, Tuesday (01/15/2013), this is the first characteristic of chimpanzees have been identified in relation to the closest human relationships. This research tries to unravel the evolutionary history of the primates.

Researchers used the game "justice" in 20 children aged two to seven years. Researchers also involves six adult chimpanzees and found that the response is exactly the mammals made ​​by the children.

"We use the Ultimatum Game, because this is the gold standard for determining the human sense of justice," said Darby Proctor from Yerkes National Primate Research at Emory University, Atlanta.

He said, in the game, one individual must propose the distribution of a gift to another individual. Then, the individual must accept the proposition (proposal) before they can get a prize.

"People usually offer generous portions, like 50 percent of gifts to their partners. This is what we actually recorded in our study with chimpanzees," he explained.

Two sets of experiments involving American children and chimpanzees Serika is based on a game in which prizes can be shared between the player and partner. The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showed that both chimpanzees and children can share the prize equally. (FMH)

Inauguration fever, Men Similar Obama Flood Job

WASHINGTON - Larry Graves, a 57-year-old man had a physique similar to the President of the United States (U.S.), Barack Obama. He was getting a lot of ordered items to mimic Obama's approach shows the Obama administration's second term inauguration.

"This is a busy time for me, during the campaign last year and approached the inaugural event at this time. Barack Obama is a respectable figure, a lot of people who want to come to their party, "Grave said, as quoted by the Associated Press, Tuesday (15/01/2013).

Grave give work to mimic Obama at party events, ranging from corporate events to the private party. He also was invited to attend a photo together.

Men who came from the state of Maryland is aware that he is similar to Obama's election time in 2008. Grave actually has white skin, he was blackening his face to look more like Obama.

Grave also try to imitate the tone of voice that held Obama. The first black president of the United States that is known for his deep and distinctive. "Obama has a unique voice, I tried to imitate the sound of it," said Grave.

The residents who would like to invite to come to his show Grave should spend as much as the equivalent of USD1.100 or Rp10, 5 million (Rp9.635 per USD). Grave own at least get three to four ordered items for a week at the moment.

Grave've even got a job offer to Hong Kong. There Grave mimicked Obama in a fast-food restaurant advertising. Unfortunately, the government pulled the ad because it was considered too controversial. (Faj)

As Is Human Ancestors?

WARSAW - The new method analyzes related hair and eye color of modern forensic samples, can be used by researchers to identify our ancestors. The team of researchers from Poland and the Netherlands, developed a system for forensic analysis and HIrisPlex involving human DNA.

Reported Heritagedaily, Monday (01/14/2013), a recent study published in the journal Investigative Genetics, explains HIrisPlex DNA analysis system that can reconstruct the hair and eye color and teeth until the age of 800 years. This study also included important figures from Poland, Wladyslaw Sikorski (1881-1943).

Based on these studies, it was revealed late Wladyslaw has blue eyes and blond hair. The research team claims the system is quite robust and successful work on the damaged samples (human remains such as teeth and bone).

The system saw 24 polymorphisms in DNA, which can be used to predict the color of eyes and hair. Wojciech Branicki Researchers from the Institute of Forensic Research explained that the system could be used to solve the historical controversies.

The system can show a person's hair and eye color, if the party concerned can not be identified due to the loss of evidence such as photographs or color fading vital records are missing. "HIrisPlex able to confirm that General Wladyslaw Sikorski, who died in a plane crash in 1943 have blue eyes and blond hair," said Wojciech.

He further said, some research samples from prisoners in World War II. "In this case, HIrisPlex helps to put the physical features of other DNA evidence," he concluded.

For human samples in the middle ages, in which the DNA is even more broken, the system is still able to predict the eye and hair color. Researchers have identified a mysterious woman who is buried in the basement Benedictine Abbey in Tyniec.

Researchers believe that the mysterious woman living in the age 12-14. Based on the analysis, the woman has dark blond or brown hair and brown eyes. (FMH)
