Here are this morning’s:
* Coming to a menu near you — New York City style calorie counts — which may or may not have any effect on people’s eating habits
* Why we take pictures — the brain processes huge amounts of data — but the amount of information that is retained is quite small
* Are umpires racist? — yeah, a little bit — controlling for umpire, pitcher, batter and catcher fixed effects and many other factors, strikes are more likely to be called if the umpire and pitcher match race/ethnicity
* The pseudocommando mass murderer — it is typically the high-profile cases that represent the most widely publicized, yet least representative mass killings — they predate the Texas bell tower
* Somebody’s watching you — probably your spouse — in 44% of couples there was at least one partner secretly monitoring the other
