101-Year-Old Bottle Message | The brown beer bottle, which had been in the water for 101 years, was found in the catch of Konrad Fischer, a fisherman, who had been out in the Baltic Sea off the northern city of Kiel.

101-Year-Old Bottle Message | Researchers believe Erdmann’s grandfather, Richard Platz, threw the bottle in the sea while on a hike with a nature appreciation group in 1913. He was 20 years old at the time. Much of the postcard was indecipherable, although the address in Berlin on the front of the card was legible, as was the author’s polite request that the note be sent by the finder to his home address. “He also included two stamps from that time that were also in the bottle, so the finder would not incur a cost,” Erdmann said. “But he did not think it would take 101 years.” She said she was moved by the arrival of the message, although she had not known her grandfather because he died, at the age of 54, six years before she was born. | 0Adv

A lot of the message on the postcard was impossible to read, but the address in Berlin on the front of the card was legible. Platz asked the person who found it to send the postcard to his home address. “He also included two stamps from that time that were also in the bottle, so the finder would not have to pay for postage,” Erdmann said. “But he did not think it would take 101 years.” She said she was moved by the arrival of the message, but she did not know her grandfather because he died, at the age of 54, six years before she was born. | 2Ele
| What did Richard Platz request from the person who finds the bottle? | 3 | [
"To use the stamps in the bottle to send the letter to Platz",
"To buy two stamps and sent the letter to Platz",
"To give the bottle to Angela after his death",
"To rescue him from the island he was stranded on"

101-Year-Old Bottle Message | “I knew very little about my grandfather, but I found out that he was a writer who was very open-minded, and believed in freedom and that everyone should respect each other,” she said. “He did a lot for the young and later traveled with his wife and two daughters. It was wonderful because I could see where my roots came from.” Like her grandfather, Erdmann said, she also liked culture and traveling around the world. She described herself as open-minded, too. “What he taught his two daughters, my mother taught me and I have then given to my sons,” she said. Despite her joy at receiving the bottled message, she said that she hoped others would not repeat what her grandfather had done and throw bottles with messages into the sea. “Today, the sea is so full of so many bottles and rubbish that more shouldn’t be thrown in there,“ she said. | 0Adv

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | Police and intelligence agencies around the world have, for almost 100 years, relied on polygraphs as lie detectors to help convict criminals or unearth spies and traitors. The polygraph is beloved of the movies, with countless dramatic moments showing the guilty sweating profusely as they are hooked up. But the invention could soon be defunct. Researchers in Britain and the Netherlands have made a breakthrough, developing a method with a success rate in tests of over 70% that could be in use in police stations around the world within a decade. Rather than relying on facial tics, talking too much or waving of arms – all seen as tell-tale signs of lying – the new method involves monitoring full-body motions to provide an indicator of signs of guilty feelings. | 0Adv

"It has already achieved this accuracy level in tests",
"Within ten years",

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | The polygraph is widely used in the US in criminal and other cases and for security clearance for the FBI and CIA but is much less popular in Europe. There has been a lot of skepticism in the scientific and legal communities about its reliability. By contrast, the new method developed by the researchers has performed well in experiments. The basic premise is that liars fidget more and so the use of an all-body motion suit – the kind used in films to create computer-generated characters – will pick this up. One of the research team, Ross Anderson, said: “Decades of deception research show that the interviewer will tell truth from lies only slightly better than random.” He said the new method, by contrast, achieved a reliability rating of over 70%. In some tests, the team has already achieved more than 80%. Anderson said: “The takeaway message is that guilty people fidget more and we can measure this robustly.” | 0Adv

The basic premise is that liars fidget more and so the use of an all-body motion suit – the kind used in films to create computer-generated characters – will pick this up. One of the research team, Ross Anderson, said: “Decades of deception research show that the interviewer will tell truth from lies only slightly better than random.” He said the new method, by contrast, achieved a reliability rating of over 70%. In some tests, the team has already achieved more than 80%. Anderson said: “The takeaway message is that guilty people fidget more and we can measure this robustly.” | 0Adv
| What does Anderson say can be measured now? | 1 | [
"Body motions that show whether someone is guilty",
"Whether fidgeting causes people to feel guilty",
"The reliability of the polygraph in determining if someone is guilty",
"Small changes in breathing rate that show if someone is guilty"

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | The polygraph was created in 1921 by policeman John Larson, based on research by the psychologist William Marston. It records changes in pulse, blood pressure, sweating and breathing to ascertain whether a subject is lying. While cinema depictions suggest the device is near-infallible, the US Supreme Court ruled, in 1998, that there was no consensus that the polygraph was reliable, a finding supported by the US National Academy of Scientists in 2003. | 0Adv

They were each paid £7.50 for their participation in the 70-minute experiment, involving two tests. Some were interviewed about a computer game Never End, which they played for seven minutes, while others lied about playing it, having only been shown notes about it. The second test involved a lost wallet containing £5. Some were asked to bring the wallet to a lost-and-found box while others hid it and lied about it. | 0Adv

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | “Overall, we correctly classified 82.2% (truths: 88.9%; lies: 75.6%) of the interviewees as either being truthful or deceptive based on the combined movement in their individual limbs,” the report says. Anderson said: “Our first attempt looked at the extent to which different body parts and body signals indicated deception. It turned out that liars wave their arms more but, again, this is only at the 55% level that you can get from a conventional polygraph. The pay dirt was when we considered total body motion. That turns out to tell truth from lies over 70% of the time.” The use of all-body suits is expensive – they cost about £30,000 – and can be uncomfortable, and Anderson and his colleagues are now looking at low-cost alternatives. These include using motion-sensing technology from computer games, such as the Kinect camera devices developed by Microsoft for the Xbox console. | 0Adv

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | “Overall, we correctly guessed whether 82.2% (truths: 88.9%; lies: 75.6%) of the interviewees were telling the truth or lying based on the movements in their individual limbs,” the report says. Anderson said: “First, we looked at how much different body parts showed that someone was lying. We found that liars wave their arms more, but this is only at the 55% level that you can get from a polygraph. The success came when we looked at total body motion. That tells truth from lies over 70% of the time.” The use of all-body suits is expensive – they cost about £30,000 – and they can be uncomfortable, so Anderson and his colleagues are now studying low-cost alternatives. These include using motion-sensing technology from computer games, such as the Kinect camera devices developed by Microsoft for the Xbox console. | 1Int

A New Form of Lie Detector Test | The new body-suit method was correct 82.2% of the time. Researchers monitored how much the people moved their arms and legs, to decide if they were telling the truth or lying. All-body suits are expensive – they cost about £30,000 – and they can be uncomfortable, so Anderson and his colleagues are now looking at cheaper alternatives. These include using motion-sensing technology from computer games, such as the Kinect camera devices developed by Microsoft for the Xbox console. | 2Ele
| What is one reason Anderson is looking for alternatives to body suits? | 4 | [
"Body suits are costly",
"Body suits will become expensive in the future",
"The new suit is only 82.2% reliable",
"Body suits take a long time to manufacture"

Autumn-Born Children Better at Sports Says Study | Do you want your child to be good at sports, make the school team and, maybe one day, even compete on the world stage? Well, try to ensure that your would-be Olympian or World Cup winner is born in November or, failing that, in October. A study has found that school pupils born in those months are fitter than everyone else in their class. November- and October-born children emerged as fitter, stronger and more powerful than their peers born in the other ten months of the year, especially those whose birthdays fell in April or June. Dr. Gavin Sandercock, who is from the Center for Sports and Exercise Science at Essex University and led the study, found that autumn-born children enjoyed “a clear physical advantage” over their classmates. | 0Adv
| What does the study say about the fitness of children born in April or June? | 0 | [
"They are weaker than children born in November and October",
"They are stronger than all children, except those born in November and October",
"They tend to be particularly good at sports",
"They tend to perform well on math and science exams when compared to other children"
