Pulitzers Can't Afford Award For Writing on Financial Crisis?
It's a big day for people who write articles that get awards — the day the 2009 Pulitzer Prizes are announced. (The Pulitzer Prize is considered the highest national honor that can be bestowed to newspaper journalists, literary writers, and composers.)

What Did the Press Get Wrong About Mumbai?
Slate ran a useful piece this week looking at all the mistakes the press made in its reporting on the Mumbai massacre.

Très Cool! Babies Cry in Their Native Language
I've always found it fascinating that dogs "bark" in different languages. Though we say "ruff ruff" in English, that same noise is expressed as "ouah, ouah" in French. Now here's something even cooler: German researchers have started to think that babies' wails sound different depending on what language their parents speak.
