The brain takes half a second to find a word
(N of C: on average, it takes me two seconds and three hours)
Taken The Castilian.
A study by the University Pompeu Fabra and the Catalan Institute for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA) Barcelona shows that the human brain takes less than half second to recover the word that the person needs to pronounce in his speech spoken. The results of the work is published this week in the online edition of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences' (PNAS).
As explained Albert Costa, director of the study, "the context of our work is associated with the passage of time in which the brain retrieves words that mean the individual. That is, the speed with which the brain accesses information associated with the word and what type takes to select the right word for oral speech. "
The study is part of a broader objective to obtain a temporal map of the different steps of processing that the brain needs to carry out the ability to speak.
"We believe that this map will help us to understand temporal best this remarkable human skill and science provide new tools to explore why the failures occur in speech and other speech errors in healthy populations and patients with brain damage, "added Costa.
From their results, the researchers conclude that the brain deals with a lot of speed of language processing and information related to words, particularly in a period of 200 milliseconds (ms), and that the brain needs about 180 ms to successfully complete this operation and the word that the subject wants to say in the stream of language production.
This is the first study provides direct evidence of brain activity in real time when the brain begins to recover words and how long it takes to retrieve the relevant word during speech production.
"We believe that by providing a temporary information as defined be important implications, both theoretical and diagnosis, to determine when and what are the causes of speech pathology in patients, such as stuttering, aphasia and the emphasis on foreign languages \u200b\u200band as in determining the factors that lead to the development of speech disorders, "concluded Costa.
The study was led by Albert Costa, associate professor in psychology at the University Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bICREA research professor, along with Kristof Srijkers and Clare Martin. Costa's team also benefited from the collaboration of researcher Guillaume Thierry of Bangor University in Wales.

infrarrealists Manifesto (1975)
THE THERE AND THERE infrarrealists
José Vicente Anaya
The discretion and wisdom destroy human imagination and reduced to a level where it remains objetual playing everyday life miserable, the individual is crushed by his own powerlessness to do anything and conformity:
-hungry let pass the bread in front of their noses;
-artists think art is finished when they publish or display their work;
- lovers refuse to venture out looking for new answers to love-
"thinkers" devote all time to find epithets with which to denigrate his detractors
-political currents are considered "demiurge" with his theories immediatists, apraxic, with the social reality and
-million-per-second over etcetera. Our contemporary
the times are treated as being objectified. Individuals are left to a passive complacency seeking a peace that will never exist, being that human beings will always be the product of internalized and historical struggles that encompass the entire society ... Most people seek refuge in ideology and abandon those they take away the most precious thing is the individual: SU HUMANITY ... Assuming only themselves is that people can break in practice to handle any system that seeks to "regular" life. Every human being is deemed himself would oppose any external control, wherever it comes: religion, science, political party, state, psychiatry, psychology, psychoanalysis, etc..
Individuals who reduce life to its simplicity and pragmatism can not see beyond the artificial walls that they have raised, this is one of the ways in which the creative imagination is killed, regardless of whether the imagination is another prerogative of humanity of the individual. For all these reasons, the artists without limits are necessary in times of misery as this.
WE BREAK ALL OUR NERVES because they are worn out, totally useless, insensitive, and just keep us in a degrading situation in which all our actions lose their sense human model.
THE KINGDOM OF HAPPINESS IS HERE AND NOW in every individual that makes a human practice which recognizes the subject / object, male / female, negative / positive, good / bad, practice in which love and struggle, which create itself and get rid means taking on a life essence ...
We must act on all possible fronts and impossible to human life. ABSOLUTE REDEMPTION ALL E hypostatize FALSE.

Bookstores closed ineffectiveness of the law
The "lack of clear rules" between the links that make up the production chain of the book has already contributed to the closure of two independent chains of bookstores: the International, founded in 1941, which had three branches, and El Alma Zen, which after nine years of work was left with one of its four locations.
"The business of bookstores today provides an overview not attractive, it seems pretty harsh. I do not know if this had improved with the implementation of the Law of Development for Reading and the Book, that has not been possible because of the lack of regulation, but surely the outlook would be different, "says the publisher and bookseller Porfirio Romo.
The owner of El Alma Zen, part of the editorial Lectorum, admits he does not have a policy for the legislation, which came into force on July 24, 2008, has been a disadvantage. "A law has no punishment is a dead law. It is important to be realized, as there are several things to correct, there is a lot of inequality in the sector ", she said.
explained that last August the closing of branches located in Coyoacán (Miguel Angel de Quevedo), Tlalpan Toluca remains open and that of Belisario Dominguez, also Coyoacán, was due to several factors. "The main sales were casualties we suffered from a year ago."
Another reason, he adds, is the unfair treatment that give small publishers to bookstores and large chains. "While they will provide a discount of between 50 and 60 percent, to grant them separate at most by 35 percent." Soul Zen
it employed 35 people and has been two.
For its part, the publisher and bookseller Hugo Setzer says in the magazine's 94th Books of Mexico, the Caniem that the poor economic performance in August also decided to close the doors of the International Library, located at Copilco colony, and the Countess local books will sell its own editorial, El Manual Moderno, founded in 1958. Between the library and the publisher employed 150 people and will now only work 90.
The disappearance of these projects, which had proved its viability for years, gives reason to the editors José María Espinasa, head of the Independent Publishers Association, and Tomas Granados, strong promoters of the Act, who expressed their fear that the lack of implementation of one price for new books required by law, would affect mainly small bookshops.
Mexican publishers are "disappointed" by the delay in approving the executive regulations of Law for Reading Promotion and Book and "worried" because a single price, which was partially implemented, has failed to implement practice even in the same libraries of the state.
"There is no political will, otherwise, I would have gone. The draft regulations proposed by the SEP is jumping from one desk to another, "says Espinasa.
The editor admits that concern small booksellers, because "they are the most disadvantaged by not running a fixed price developments, as they have expenses to be paid without delay, and the libraries of the state are threatened by budget cuts" .
adds that following this crisis, many venues, including the chain bookstores Educal and Fondo de Cultura Economica, "have fallen into the temptation to offer discounts, waging a new war which hurts everyone." Granados
shares this concern. "There is no official word, no advance, since July last year. And the worst part is that the previous law happened something similar was enacted but never implemented because it lacked regulation. If legislation is not exercised can not be passed on to the next legislative step to improve, "he adds.
For his part, Juan Arzoz, Caniem president, admits that there has been progress in the regulation. "I have no news, we have not been called to any meeting and asked for our opinion. Just know which side is out. Will any means slow. I hope to accelerate. "
