Do monkeys know what others need?

2012-04-13

If you have seen a child just eat an entire ice-cream, and she begs you to buy her one, what will your reaction be? Here we ask if monkeys understand the physical needs of others. In order to provide help or share food, it would be useful for them to know what others want or need. Such understanding is probably simpler than an understanding of the other's state of knowledge, known as Theory-of-Mind (ToM). Sensitivity to wants and needs appears earlier than ToM in the development of children. While there is some evidence for ToM in the great apes, such as chimpanzees, ...

Multiple Trailer Accidents

2012-04-13

There are several reasons trucking companies employ double or triple trailers. One of the most frequently cited reasons is fuel efficiency. Some industry studies have shown that single cabs pulling double or triple trailers eventually cost less in fuel than having multiple cabs pull single loads. Increased efficiency is another reason trucking companies may wish to have a driver pull more than one trailer. If a driver can make one stop at a large commercial location, or make multiple stops at different locations in one haul, it can lead to faster delivery times. Increasing ...
