But others were far from convinced. Paul Pettitt, senior lecturer in palaeolithic archaeology at the University of Sheffield, said: “Are they truly the remains of huts and not a natural phenomenon? Do they really date 400,000 years or are they much more recent? The site formation, age and implicati...

I would go and check it out at my local library but, oh yeah, they closed them due to the general ignorance of people in the community. :cry: Anyway, off the soapbox, I'm headed for the used book stores later today and will see if I can find a copy. It's good...

Woman's Poem/Man's Poem Woman's Poem: Before I lay me down to sleep, I pray for a man, who's not a creep, One who's handsome, smart and strong. One who loves to listen long, One who thinks before he speaks, One who'll call, not wait for weeks. I pray he's gainfully employed, When I spend his cash, w...

Things you wish you could say at work... 1. I can see your point, but I still think you're full of sh__. 2. I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce. 3. How about never?

A prize winning essay from a local teen. http://www.mailtribune.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070619/NEWS/706190314 Kelton Shockey, 13, says the bees are tuckered out and stressed from too much feeding on corn syrup and too much trucking around the country to pollinate orchards.

Great article! In a telephone interview Monday, Dr. Cock said that at least 35 of the excavated skeletons bore evidence of violent injuries: cheekbones crushed by heavy blows, broken hands and limbs, a smashed chest. Some had presumably fallen in hand-to-hand combat or been trampled by Spanish horse...
