Chimpanzee Speak Through Keyboard Study Shocks Linguists
A William and Mary linguistics professor previews a Georgia State lab claim that chimpanzees use a 250 key computer keyboard to form sentences with computer voiced words. The bonobos, brother and sister, can convey basic grammar and understand English sentences around a 24 year old level. The researchers believe the work challenges long held beliefs about language and cognition and may aid autistic children.

Officials speculated cop killer suspects slipped past again
Utah authorities continued the manhunt for three suspects tied to a Colorado airport shooting. The two surviving fugitives may have escaped along the San Juan River, with a wide canyon area closed to rivers and hikers. Helicopters and SWAT teams scoured the river while deputies watched the area near Mexican Hat. A body found near Mason suggested a possible capture, with blast devices found nearby. Bluff residents were moved as searches extended across the canyon and river corridors. Deputy Kelly Bradford remained in good condition after being shot near Bluff.
