DONT THROW STONES AT THE ANIMALSSSSS!!!!!!


geram jugak bila tgk org sajer baling batu pada animal..mcm nak provoke that animal supaya ia bagi response or marah or terkam kat diaorg or whateva the intention was..giler laaa...baling batu kat lions..batu besar plak tu..baling and baling sampai sipi nak mengenai lions tu..sambil bergelak ketawa and sambil buat signal 'marilah kalu brani!' kat lion tuh....dah kehabisan batu, yg mak mak carik batu lain kat kawasan sekeliling sampe dpt..aku tgk aje gelagat diaorg..nak tegur bukan main ramai diaorg nih..kalu budak2 aku brani la nak tegur..ini mak mak and bapak bapak org..anak2 kecil tengok sambil bersuka2..diaorg ingat ini mcm sarkas ker aper..aper masalah diaorg nih eh.sayang nya kita pergi z:oo utk learn something about animals tapi budak2 tu mesti dah ada in mind..oh its ok to throw stones at animals..especially lions!aku buat2 tangkap gambar diaorg..ada la sorang tu prasan, dan dia pun mcm cuak jugak la..biarkan..geram betul!kebetulan mmg pegang camera...

kemarahan terubat dengan makan 'm:agic ice cream' aper yg magik nyer..org tu buat ice cream..bukan ice cream la tp air karbonated (yg dah dibuang gasnya) dibekukan dalam masa yg singkat dah jadik sebatang ice cream..tp masih geram jugak..carik mcm management office macam tak nampak plak. isshh kalu singa tu ngamuk sakan kan nyayer tu..fuhh..haaa..lupa plak, sebelum tempat lion tuh ada la tempat Nicky..aler tiger cub yg telah diselamatkan oleh org daripada masuk periuk kat kedai makan...pastu t:he S:tar sort of adopted dia and last year dia dah branak..and jadi front page lagi..heee..how cute..

ok la...pegi z:oo tgk diam2 ajer..nak baling batu, pegi la baling kat org i:srael..hhhmmm...

apa yg diingat...

days goes by, sedar2 kita dah sampai ke penghujung..nak flash back aper yg dah berlaku sepanjang thn, tak mungkin ler..personally i ingat time january jer!if u know what i mean..u remember very important events in ur life,tp kekedang aper yg kita buat semalam pun belum tentu kita ingat..maybe the memory slip out somewhere in our brain..or never been stored! a good memory really helps in our daily activities..especially at work..that's why we need frens or pen&paper to help us remember..especially if ur the cant-really-remember-what-i-did-yesterday kind of person (including me?)have u herd someone say "i dont have/poor in short term memory?"..hhhmm...this needs scientific explaination. quote from w:ikipedia

In psychology, memory is an organism's mental ability to store, retain and recall information. Traditional studies of memory began in the fields of philosophy, including techniques of artificially enhancing the memory. The late nineteenth and early twentieth century put memory within the paradigms of cognitive psychology. In recent decades, it has become one of the principal pillars of a branch of science called cognitive neuroscience, an interdisciplinary link between cognitive psychology and neuroscience.

Processes

From an information processing perspective there are three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory:

  • Encoding or registration (receiving, processing and combining of received information)
  • Storage (creation of a permanent record of the encoded information)
  • Retrieval or recall (calling back the stored information in response to some cue for use in a process or activity)

Classification

A basic and generally accepted classification of memory is based on the duration of memory retention, and identifies three distinct types of memory: sensory memory, short term memory and long term memory.

Sensory

Sensory memory corresponds approximately to the initial 200 - 500 milliseconds after an item is perceived. The ability to look at an item, and remember what it looked like with just a second of observation, or memorization, is an example of sensory memory. With very short presentations, participants often report that they seem to "see" more than they can actually report. The first experiments exploring this form of sensory memory were conducted by George Sperling (1960) using the "partial report paradigm." Subjects were presented with a grid of 12 letters, arranged into three rows of 4. After a brief presentation, subjects were then played either a high, medium or low tone, cuing them which of the rows to report. Based on these partial report experiments, Sperling was able to show that the capacity of sensory memory was approximately 12 items, but that it degraded very quickly (within a few hundred milliseconds). Because this form of memory degrades so quickly, participants would see the display, but be unable to report all of the items (12 in the "whole report" procedure) before they decayed. This type of memory cannot be prolonged via rehearsal.

Short-term memory allows one to recall something from several seconds to as long as a minute without rehearsal. Its capacity is also very limited: George A. Miller (1956), when working at Bell Laboratories, conducted experiments showing that the store of short term memory was 7±2 items (the title of his famous paper, "The magical number 7±2"). Modern estimates of the capacity of short-term memory are lower, typically on the order of 4-5 items, and we know that memory capacity can be increased through a process called chunking. For example, if presented with the string:

FBIPHDTWAIBM

people are able to remember only a few items. However, if the same information is presented in the following way:

FBI PHD TWA IBM

people can remember a great deal more letters. This is because they are able to chunk the information into meaningful groups of letters. Beyond finding meaning in the abbreviations above, Herbert Simon showed that the ideal size for chunking letters and numbers, meaningful or not, was three. This may be reflected in some countries in the tendency to remember phone numbers as several chunks of three numbers with the final four-number groups generally broken down into two groups of two.

Short-term memory is believed to rely mostly on an acoustic code for storing information, and to a lesser extent a visual code. Conrad (1964)[1] found that test subjects had more difficulty recalling collections of words that were acoustically similar (e.g. dog, hog, fog, bog, log).

However, some individuals have been reported to be able to remember large amounts of information, quickly, and be able to recall that information in seconds.

The storage in sensory memory and short-term memory generally have a strictly limited capacity and duration, which means that information is available for a certain period of time, but is not retained indefinitely. By contrast, long-term memory can store much larger quantities of information for potentially unlimited duration (sometimes a whole life span). For example, given a random seven-digit number, we may remember it for only a few seconds before forgetting, suggesting it was stored in our short-term memory. On the other hand, we can remember telephone numbers for many years through repetition; this information is said to be stored in long-term memory. While short-term memory encodes information acoustically, long-term memory encodes it semantically: Baddeley (1966)[2] discovered that after 20 minutes, test subjects had the least difficulty recalling a collection of words that had similar meanings (e.g. big, large, great, huge).

Short-term memory is supported by transient patterns of neuronal communication, dependent on regions of the frontal lobe (especially dorsolateral prefrontal cortex) and the parietal lobe. Long-term memories, on the other hand, are maintained by more stable and permanent changes in neural connections widely spread throughout the brain. The hippocampus is essential (for learning new information) to the consolidation of information from short-term to long-term memory, although it does not seem to store information itself. Without the hippocampus new memories are unable to be stored into long-term memory, very short attention span. Rather, it may be involved in changing neural connections for a period of three months or more after the initial learning. One of the primary functions of sleep is improving consolidation of information, as it can be shown that memory depends on getting sufficient sleep between training and test, and that the hippocampus replays activity from the current day while sleeping


tidur memain peranan dalam memori kita..interesting huh?marilah kita cukupkan tido (will i ever get enuff sleeps) so many things to remember huh...
