7 Reasons Two People Remember the Same Event Differently New

7 Reasons Two People Remember the Same Event Differently

1. Attention determines what enters memory in the first placePeople can share an experience without absorbing the same information. Attention selects only part of what is happening, so each person begins with different raw material. At a dinner, one guest may notice a tense exchange while another concentrates on ordering food. Later, their accounts conflict—not necessarily because either person is dishonest, but because neither encoded the entire scene. Memory cannot reliably reproduce details that attention never registered.2. Expectations can quietly fill gaps in an incomplete sceneThe mind uses existing knowledge to interpret fragments, often without marking which details were observed and which were inferred. If a colleague enters a meeting late and looks flustered, one person may remember an apology even if none occurred, because an apology fits the expected sequence. These additions are not always deliberate fabrications. They show that remembering is partly reconstruction, especially when the original event was brief, ordinary or poorly observed.3. Later information can become attached to the original memoryWhat people hear after an event can alter how they later describe it. Suppose two friends see a cyclist fall. One subsequently hears that the road was slippery; the other hears that the cyclist was distracted. When retelling the incident, each may emphasise different causes or even recall supporting details. The later information does not automatically erase the original memory, but its source can become confused with what was personally witnessed.4. Strong emotion highlights some details and obscures othersEmotion can make an event feel exceptionally vivid, but vividness is not the same as complete accuracy. During a heated argument, someone may clearly remember a cutting phrase yet have little memory of what was said immediately before it. The other person may focus on tone rather than wording. A powerful emotional response can narrow attention around what felt threatening or important, leaving surrounding details less available even when confidence remains high.5. Retelling a story can reshape the next recollectionEach retelling is more than a neutral playback. It can strengthen selected details, simplify the sequence and give the event a cleaner meaning. After repeatedly describing a holiday mishap as hilarious, someone may later remember amusement more readily than the embarrassment felt at the time. This does not mean every retelling corrupts memory. It means people often remember both the event and the story they have practised telling about it.6. Current feelings can change which past details seem importantA present relationship or mood can influence how someone organises memories of the past. After a friendship ends badly, earlier awkward moments may become easier to retrieve and appear like obvious warning signs. If the friendship improves, generous moments may return to the foreground. The events themselves have not changed, but their significance has. This hindsight effect can make the current interpretation feel as though it was always clear.7. Confidence measures certainty, not necessarily historical accuracyPeople often treat confidence as proof, yet certainty can grow through repetition, coherence or social reinforcement rather than better evidence. A sibling who has told the same childhood story for years may sound far surer than one who remembers only fragments. That difference does not establish who is correct. When accuracy matters, compare independent records, separate direct observation from later inference, and allow uncertainty instead of forcing both accounts into one definitive version.

The criminal illegal migrant shot by an ICE agent in Manhattan last week still has the bullet lodged in his neck, can’t eat and has to drink bathroom sink water under “horrific’’ jail conditions, his lawyers say.Convicted armed robber Oscar Belgal, 28, of the Dominican Republic is being forced to endure the torturous situation while being held in solitary confinement at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn – the same lock-up where alleged healthcare CEO killer Luigi Mangione and deposed Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro are housed.Oscar Belgal is shot and cuffed by federal immigration officers in Upper Manhattan last week. New York City Police Department via AP“Mr. Belgal is living through an unimaginable nightmare,” said the criminal’s lawyers, from the Legal Aid Society and Make the Road New York, in a joint statement. “While he is currently in solitary confinement, a bullet remains lodged in his neck, the left side of his face is numb, and he can barely hear out of his left ear.“Doctors have told him he urgently needs surgery, but that the procedure was too dangerous to perform Thursday evening without a specialized surgeon present,” Belgal’s lawyers said. “Although he was instructed to return to the hospital this week, he has been left in the dark about whether that surgery will even happen. He is also suffering from a shoulder wound caused by shattered glass during the incident.”Belgal, 28, had his 5-year-old son in the car when he allegedly tried to flee the officers by ramming them. Stephanie via REUTERSThe lawyers claimed that Belgal also “has not eaten a single meal since Thursday” and “has been told that the only water available to him comes from a bathroom sink.”During his time alone in his cell, he has been “forced to relive the terrifying moments of being shot,” they said. Here’s the latest on the Bronx ICE shooting: NYC illegal migrant thug shot by ICE still has bullet lodged in neck, can’t eat, lawyers say: ‘Unimaginable nightmare’ Israel-hating trolls attack NYPD commissioner online after ICE shooting in NYC Mamdani threatens to probe ICE after NYC ‘illegal migrant’ shooting — as he compares agency to terrorists NYC DSA darling Darializa Avila Chevalier claims it ‘doesn’t even matter’ that gangbanger shot by ICE has violent criminal record Belgal, 28, a reputed member of the Trinitarios street gang, picked up his son in the Marble Hill neighborhood shortly after 4 p.m. Thursday when plainclothes ICE agents stormed his SUV and fired into the vehicle when he tried to pull away, wounding him in the neck.Marcos Charles, the head of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations division, said Belgal “accelerated” at the agents, “smashing” into two of them — an allegation not captured on the CCTV footage of at least part of the incident obtained by The Post.Belgal’s lawyers are pushing for his “immediate release from detention.” DHSAuthorities said Belgal entered the US illegally in 2022 and had amassed an alarming rap sheet, including a 2023 armed robbery conviction and a 2025 bust for allegedly selling fentanyl, cocaine and heroin.Former neighbors told The Post he used to terrorized them with a machete.“The deliberate indifference Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents showed toward Mr. Belgal when he was shot on Thursday, and the treatment he has endured in detention since, are further examples of the cruelty and disregard for basic human dignity that have long defined this agency,” the shot man’s lawyers raged in their missive.“We will continue to fight for Mr. Belgal’s immediate release from detention and to ensure that he receives the medical care, due process, and basic human dignity to which he is entitled under the law.”

Nobel laureate urges ICC action over claims Russian medics aided prisoner torture New

Nobel laureate urges ICC action over claims Russian medics aided prisoner torture

Oleksandra Matviichuk, delivering her Nobel lecture in 2022 (Picture: EPA) A winner of the Nobel Peace Prize has called for immediate action after a report claimed Russia is weaponising doctors and medics to torture Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war. Oleksandra Matviichuk leads the Center for Civil Liberties, the human rights organisation which received the prize in 2022 alongside Russian non-profit Memorial and Belarusian campaigner Ales Bialiatski. The centre is among a group of Ukrainian charities and institutions sounding the alarm over allegations of international law and medical ethics by Russia. Medics are alleged to have denied badly needed care, tortured prisoners with tasers – and even branded patients with pro-Russia messages. Matviichuk told Metro: ‘We want to share this information to put pressure on Russia in order to save lives, because people are dying. People are dying. ‘Their conditions are inhuman and the treatment is beyond human imagination.’ She highlighted the case of a man who told her he saw medics only once while incarcerated, after he lost consciousness while being tortured. Matviichuk, a human rights lawyer, said: ‘The Russian medics were invited to give an injection and to return him to consciousness, to provide the opportunity to continue the torture process.’ In another case, she spoke of a Ukrainian soldier who woke from an operation to find the words ‘Glory to Russia’ had been written in scars on his skin with a surgical tool. She said: ‘Now this person, after returning to Ukraine as a result of prisoner exchange, is going through the process of removing this slogan from his body. ‘It’s a very painful and long-lasting process.’ Ukrainian military personnel returning home in March after time in Russian prison (Picture: Artem Gvozdkov/Global Images Ukraine via Getty Images) Such incidents are systemic rather than isolated, she said, pointing to testimonies collected over 12 years since the Russian invasion of Crimea in 2014. Matviichuk explained: ‘We interviewed people who returned from the prisons, but we also interviewed people who get information from people who are close to them – their relatives, their families, who are still under occupation. ‘We analyse open data with other verifications, draw a lot of information about different signs of captivity in video, in social networks. ‘And Russians are very brutal. They are not even hiding their crimes.’ The report, titled Anatomy of Torture, was written by four experts based at the Center for Civil Liberties and supported by the UK Government. Testimonies include several describing an individual based in the Russian Republic of Mordovia dubbed ‘Doctor Evil’. One person quoted in the report described a visit from the doctor: ‘The cell opens, and he hits the person addressing him and the person on duty in the cell. ‘And he would start talking like this: “Patient, what’s wrong with you? Patient, come here, give me your hand.” ‘Your eyes are closed, your head is tilted down, and you can’t see anything. You give him your hand, and he hits you in the hand with a taser. First, he hits you with a taser, and then he gives you a pill.’ Another person said the so-called Doctor Evil participated in torture and ‘ensured the person stayed alive’. From left, wife of Ales Bialiatski Natalia Pinchuk; Memorial chairman Yan Rachinsky, and Matviichuk with their certificates (Picture: Javad Parsa/NTB/AFP via Getty Images) The doctor in question was identified as Ilya Sorokin by Ukrainian human rights group KHPG. He was charged in absentia by the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) in December last year, but Matviichuk said there is ‘no possibility to physically arrest him because he is in Russia’. The lawyer said ‘several submissions’ had been sent to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, and she called on the body to ‘open the case based on these crimes against humanity’. She added: ‘What must be done is provide the full access of International Committee of Red Cross to all illegally detained civilians and prisoners of the war, and to create a special medics commission to be sent to Russia to work to get access to people.’ Matviichuk also urged professional medics in other countries to react to the practice, arguing such a mobilisation can have a ‘chilling effect’ on Russian behaviour as some exchanges and cooperation still exist. Last week, the Center for Civil Liberties led an open appeal to the World Health Organisation alongside a number of other NGOs, institutions and groups, calling for an intervention. The letter says the WHO has ‘unique expertise and international capacity to draw attention to violations of the right to health, uphold international standards of medical care, and help ensure that the principles of healthcare and medical ethics remain in force even in situations of armed conflict’. When approached by Metro, the WHO declined to comment. Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@metro.co.uk. For more stories like this, check our news page.

Breaking Bad actor and disability advocate RJ Mitte dies aged 34

Updated 22:15 12 Oct 2026 GMT+1Published 21:44 12 Oct 2026 GMT+1The 34-year-old star played Walter White's son in the hit show Breaking Bad star RJ Mitte has died aged 34.Mitte, who played the son of Bryan Cranston’s Walter White on the hit show, passed away on Monday in Brownsville, Texas, his representatives confirmed.“It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of beloved actor, philanthropist, and passionate disability rights advocate RJ Mitte,” the rep told the Daily Mail."RJ Mitte was best known for his role as Walter 'Flynn' White Jr. on AMC’s critically acclaimed, award-winning series Breaking Bad.

RJ Mitte played Walter White Jr in Breaking Bad (AMC)No cause of death has been confirmed. Mitte was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when he was three-years-old and used his fame to raise awareness about the condition. Mitte moved to Hollywood in 2006 and sought out acting roles where his disability could educate viewers. He made early-career appearances in Everybody Hates Chris and Hannah Montana. But it was his role as Walter White Jr - a character that had cerebral palsy - in Breaking Bad that would catapult Mitte to worldwide fame. He appeared in more than 50 episodes of the show across its run from 2008-2013.His performance, which won him the SAG-AFTRA Harold Russell Award, has been credited with helping to bring awareness to the condition. During a recent appearance on the The Joe Vulpis Podcast, Mitte opened up about his role on the AMC drama. “My character Walt Jr. was based on a real person, a friend of [Breaking Bad creator] Vince Gilligan in college who had cerebral palsy, who used forearm crutches and sometime after passed away,” he explained.“So it really felt real playing this character and getting into the groove with this character.”Mitte used his fame to raise awareness about cerebral palsy (Unique Nicole/Getty Images)After Breaking Bad wrapped up in 2013, Mitte went on to star in several other projects on both the big and small screen, including Vegas, Switched at Birth, The Guardians of Justice and The Recall. His most recent role was playing Fitz in the 2025 movie Westhampton. He was also an ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy and a Screen Actors Guild spokesman for actors with disabilities.Alongside that, he was president of his own charity, the Mitte Foundation, which supported various philanthropic efforts and aimed to change perceptions about people living with disabilities. Last October, Mitte announced that he had got engaged to his partner Kennedy Suarez after five-years of dating. In a statement shared with PEOPLE at the time, Mitte said: "I'm thrilled to have found my person, my partner in life who makes me want to be better, no matter what we're doing. "Kennedy is my everything and I can't wait to officially start our life together and see what adventures life takes us on next."Featured Image Credit: Unique Nicole/Getty ImagesTopics: Celebrity, Breaking Bad

9 Reasons Two People Remember the Same Conversation Differently New

9 Reasons Two People Remember the Same Conversation Differently

1. Attention determines what enters memory in the first placePeople can hear the same words without attending to the same information. One person may focus on the decision being made, while the other watches the speaker’s expression or worries about what to say next. Those unattended details may never be encoded clearly enough to recall later. During a tense meeting, for example, you might remember a manager’s critical phrase but miss the reassuring sentence immediately after it. The difference begins with attention, not necessarily dishonesty.2. Memory usually preserves meaning better than exact wordingConversation is often stored as its general meaning, or gist, rather than as a transcript. When recalling it, people rebuild sentences that fit what they understood at the time. If someone says, “The deadline may need another look,” one listener might later report, “She said the deadline would change.” That recollection captures an interpretation, not the precise statement. Exact wording is especially difficult to recover unless it was distinctive, repeated or recorded.3. Your role changes which details seem importantThe same exchange creates different practical concerns for each participant. In a discussion about moving house, one partner may track costs and timing while the other remembers comments about neighbourhoods and family. Each person’s goals guide attention and organise the resulting memory. This is not simply self-interest; relevance helps the mind decide what to retain. When comparing accounts, ask what each person needed from the conversation before assuming one version is careless or false.4. Expectations can quietly fill gaps in recallMemory draws on existing knowledge to make incomplete events coherent. These mental frameworks are useful, but they can supply details that were likely rather than present. After an ordinary restaurant visit, someone might remember receiving a menu before ordering even if the specials were actually written on a board. In conversation, expecting a colleague to be dismissive may shape how an ambiguous reply is remembered. The expectation can influence recall without proving that the remembered tone was imagined.5. Strong emotion highlights some moments and obscures othersEmotion does not simply improve or damage memory; it changes what receives priority. During an argument, an insulting word may become vivid while the sequence of remarks, surrounding context and attempts at repair remain hazy. One person might clearly recall hearing “irresponsible” but misremember whether it came before or after an apology. Emotional intensity can create confidence in central details without guaranteeing an accurate account of everything that happened around them.6. People can remember information but misplace its sourceSometimes the content is familiar while its origin is unclear, a problem called source-monitoring error. You may correctly remember discussing a holiday date but confuse something your partner said with a message you read in the group chat. Later, “We agreed on Friday” feels true because Friday was repeatedly considered, even if no agreement occurred. Separating what was said from where it came from can resolve disputes that look like contradictions but are actually source confusion.7. Later information can reshape an earlier conversationMemory remains open to revision after an event. New details, other people’s accounts and the eventual outcome can become woven into the original recollection. Suppose a project later fails because of its budget. A team member may then remember the first planning meeting as more focused on financial warnings than it actually was. This does not mean later information always creates false memories, but it can alter emphasis. Notes made promptly provide a useful comparison with later recall.8. Retelling strengthens a version, not necessarily the eventEach retelling is also another opportunity to practise a particular account. Details that fit the story are repeated, while awkward or uncertain parts may disappear. After describing a rude customer several times, an employee may become fluent and confident in a simplified sequence: complaint, insult, departure. That fluency can feel like accuracy, although it partly reflects rehearsal. Asking, “What are you least certain about?” can reveal where a polished story contains genuine gaps.9. Confidence and accuracy are not the same measureA vivid, quickly retrieved memory often feels trustworthy, but confidence can also grow through repetition, emotional importance or a coherent narrative. Meanwhile, an accurate person may sound hesitant because they recognise uncertainty. If two friends dispute who suggested a restaurant, the more forceful answer is not automatically better. Useful checks include contemporaneous messages, calendars and neutral witnesses. When no record exists, treating confidence as confidence—not proof—allows disagreement without forcing either account into a lie.

Dačić: SPS se zalaže za Zakon o radu iz vremena Miloševića

Ivica Dačić Socijalistička partija Srbije predizborni skup u Beogradu / Marko Ljutica autor: 12. okt. 2026. 21:01 Lider Socijalističe partije Srbije (SPS) Ivica Dačić je rekao danas da se ta stranka zalaže za odredbe Zakona o radu koji je bio na snazi u vreme vlasti Slobodana Miloševića, odnosno u devedesetim godinama prošlog veka. Oglas Dačić je, za Radio televiziju Vojvodine, to precizirao upitan o njegovim izjavama u vezi nezadovoljstva aktuelnim zakonskim odredbama u toj oblasti, koje je izneo tokom predizbornog skupa koalicije oko socijalista u nedelju, u Beogradu."Zalažemo se za zakon koji je bio u naše vreme", rekao je Dačić, te je na opasku novinarke da je svako vreme bilo njihovo, odnosno da je SPS na vlasti, s malim pauzama, od devedesetih, precizirao da su "za zakon koji je bio u vreme Miloševića".Dačić je odbacio navode da SPS propada jer su ostali bez nekih funkcionera poput Branka Ružića za koga je rekao da je isključen zbog kršenja stranačkog statuta, te je zapitao zašto je pozvan da gostuje ako je SPS propao."Da li će neki komarac da ode je nebitno, SPS ostaje kao institucija", rekao je Dačić.

Garlasco, la difesa Sempio prepara cinque consulenze e contesta l’ipotesi del sangue New

Garlasco, la difesa Sempio prepara cinque consulenze e contesta l’ipotesi del sangue

La difesa di Andrea Sempio è pronta a depositare altre cinque consulenze in risposta agli ultimi accertamenti fatti dai pm pavesi. Dal giorno della chiusura delle indagini (bis) dello scorso 28 settembre, avvocati e consulenti hanno 20 giorni di tempo - come prevede il Codice - per studiare il lavoro dei magistrati e fare contro-deduzioni. Oggi si sono trovati a Roma per un loro ultimo incontro in vista del 18 ottobre, ovvero ultimo giorno per poter consegnare i lavori. Ma su cosa si concentreranno le loro consulenze? L'avvocato Liborio Cataliotti al programma tv "Dentro la notizia" ha spiegato: "Stiamo ultimando cinque consulenze che affrontano, e confutano, tutti i temi sviscerati dalla Procura". Tra questa ce ne è ancora una sull'impronta 33, ovvero quella traccia parziale di mano destra trovata sulla parete destra delle scale in cui è stato trovato il cadavere di Chiara Poggi. Impronta che solo in questi ultimi mesi la Procura l'ha dichiarata compatibile con la mano di Andrea Sempio. Tra i consulenti incaricati dalla difesa per occuparsi della traccia 33 c'è anche la criminalista e dattiloscopista Katia Sartori. Su cosa si è concentrata la sua consulenza, eseguita con i colleghi Armando Palmegiani e Marina Baldi? L'impronta 33 è da dividere in due macro aree. La prima: il lavoro sulle minuzie riscontrate sulla traccia 33, che per Giampaolo Iuliano e Nicola Caprioli - ovvero i consulenti dattiloscopici incaricati dalla Procura di Pavia - sono riconducibili alla mano di Sempio. Per noi non lo sono. La seconda: ci siamo concentrati a capire l'interazione della ninidrina e della calce. Ovvero, eseguendo una sperimentazione scientifica, ci siamo chiesti se la ninidrina e la calce insieme possano davvero inibire l'OBTI test, quell'esame fatto dal Ris nel 2007 nella ricerca del sangue sull'impronta 33 e che aveva dato esito negativo. Noi abbiamo fatto una serie di sperimentazioni a nostro avviso i risultati sono molto più che soddisfatti a tal proposito. Perché è stato necessario fare questa sperimentazione ora? Perché la Procura (come precisano anche i consulenti di Alberto Stasi) sostiene che la calce potesse in un certo qual modo inibire, insieme alla ninidrina, il risultato del test. Nonostante il pochissimo tempo a disposizione, non ci siamo fermati e abbiamo lavorato duramente in queste settimane. Abbiamo ottenuto ottimi risultati che sono in netta contraddizione con quelli espressi dai consulenti di Stasi. Loro sostengono, a tutti i costi, che su quella impronta poteva esserci sangue. Noi invece sosteniamo che se ci fosse stato sangue, l'OBTI test sarebbe stato positivo. L'ex Ris Mattei ai pm di Pavia ha detto che nel 2007 era stato impressionato ("Faceva senso") dalla traccia 33 perché era "bagnata". Perché secondo voi era bagnata? Poteva essere una mano anche molto sudata, oppure, possono esistere anche altre ipotesi che invece, sono state scartate a priori dagli investigatori. Inoltre, quel vano scala sostanzialmente non era sottoposto ad una pulizia ordinaria. Lo si capisce dalla presenza di tantissime altre tracce sullo stesso muro e dal segno della ruota di una bicicletta proprio vicino all’impronta 33. Quindi, se un'impronta non è sottoposta a un'azione meccanica o da un agente chimico aggressivo per ripulirla, l'impronta può rimanere anche per anni e questo dato non solo è condiviso da tutta la comunità scientifica ma supportato da ampia letteratura a riguardo.

As Britney Spears once sang, they’re not that innocent.A group of UK teens has mobilized to ban sexed-up school uniforms from the porn industry, with support coming from local legislators.High school students at The Cooper School in Bicester have launched a petition calling for the ban of all school uniforms in XXX videos, telling The BBC that their traditional plaid kilts and shrunken blazers have been “warped by sexualization.” A petition from UK schoolgirls is urging lawmakers to ban school uniforms in adult films and sex shops. Bangkok Click Studio – stock.adobe.comSo far, the petition counts over 28,000 signatures — a respectable .05% of the entire UK population. It was created as part of the students’ Little Feminist Book Club, an after-school society.In April, the British government OK’d a law banning adults from pretending they’re underage in skin flicks, but so far, it hasn’t been enforced.“Sexy schoolgirl” is a popular category for Halloween costumes.

One 15-year-old says that the mere thought of wearing her pleated miniskirt outside of school fills her with “fear.” “Young women and girls should not have to grow up seeing their school uniforms sexualized,” said Alex Davies-Jones, a member of Parliament who works on behalf of UK exploitation victims. “I commend these pupils for speaking out about something they feel so strongly about.”Teeny kilts and peek-a-boo button-ups are a mainstay of adult fantasy films, with tens of thousands of “hot schoolgirl” videos available on sites like Pornhub and OnlyFans. Many cartoons and cosplay outfits also channel sexy schoolgirls. AmazonBut the genre isn’t limited to XXX websites. Mainstream sites like Amazon boast over 600 options for “sexy schoolgirl” costumes, while trendy retailer Dolls Kill and even craft mecca Michael’s have some Rated R options. And manga comics created for adults often use ultra-sexy schoolgirls from other planets as their main characters without needing to disclose their ages — the cartoons are, after all, imaginary. It will be difficult, if not impossible, for a schoolgirl porn crackdown to include all of these variables. But for the students at The Cooper School, raising hell to fight for safer girlhoods is a worthy start.“This is something that makes people sexy,” 15-year-old Mae told reporters. “But I’m a child.”
