So instead of going into the Dreamland.....we are going to sadly go into reality.
But don't worry...I've got some good realities to present today.
Thats right 10! Allons-y!
So here it is folks! The News Articles for today!
A lovely little article to give us updates on our little friend Curiosity. The rover is about to finish its commissioning phase of its travels on Mars and on Friday Curiosity is going to just go for a drive around Mars to continue its exploriation. Its very exciting! I can't wait till this happens!
Yep! A new species of monkey has been discovered in Africa (in the Congo). This makes the second new primate to be found in the past 28 years. Its really exciting. The discovery is helping raise awareness that the Congo needs to be explored. I think it really should be cause someone has to get to the bottom of some of the "cryptids" that are known to be found there. I'll go into Cryptozoology later in the blog.
But if you wanna see the new face in the world of Primates---Meet Lesula!
Yep! The link above will give you the BBC article about the recent discovery that might be able to aid in the cloning process of one of the biggest symbols of extinction--literally. The Wooly Mammoth remains found on Russia's Arctic coastline have the traits that the animal's cells are still intact. It is currently unknown but if they are.......the Mammoth might be thundering across the tundra once again!
For the upcoming James Bond film, Skyfall, the James Bond franchise is making sure we understand its the 50th anniversary. Many old actors of James Bond films are going to be appearing. Including Roger Moore (who was one of my favorite Bonds), a few of the Bond Girls, and some of the villains including JAWS.
Its very exciting!
Apparently, the research in the Himalayas is not good business for the locals who live in the Roof of the World. The local sherpas are out of work cause due to advancements in technology, their services are starting to be viewed obsolete to the scientific community.
Also there is an interesting thing saying that some research is overlooking some of the impacts of the "discoveries" have on the local population. A cool read.
What the Sherpas are saying
A really interesting article about a man who is in charge of taking care of a holy site in the Ivory Coast and its occupants who are viewed as spiritual beings.
Giant...freaking...Crocodiles. The link shows some impressive pictures of the crocs. Its a really cool story on a very unique life led by a single man, Dicki Toki.
