Mac Tonnies from the fantastic site Posthuman Blues recently shared an incredible lecture by Elaine Morgan. Morgan is an advocate for a controversial hypothesis that explains humanity’s unique differences from our primate cousins, by linking humans to a semi-aquatic ancestor.

I’ve got a tiny scar just beside my left eye, the result of a careless act involving me as a five-year-old jumping around near the front door of my house, stumbling and hitting the side of my head on the door’s lock.
The scar though is nothing compared to the one that now graces the planet Jupiter. In fact, the damn thing is so big it is actually the size of (more. . .)

Doubtless you were reduced to a puddle of tears yesterday when I neglected to do my weekly Extraordinary Thursday Video Post. Well, I apologize for rocking your world like this, but I actually had a reason for waiting the extra day. Luckily, I was able to make a clever and subtle change to the above graphic.

I’ve been suffering from an ear ache for about 6 months. I’ve been to doctors and have been given a different diagnosis by nearly every one. I’ve been told it is a hormonal imbalance, TMJ, deep infection, collapsed tubes, sinusitis, etc etc etc. The bottom line is that no one really can get to the bottom of what is bothering my poor ears!

This is where it all began. The Original Star Trek Series running roughly from 1966 through 1969, for a total of three seasons and 78 episodes – but my how we’ve grown. (more. . .)

This seems an appropriate post for Earth Day, as it has been revealed that Astronomers have discovered a planet outside our solar system that is similar in size to Earth.
An American expert called the discovery of the tiny planet “extraordinary.” (Nice!)

The Chinese are coming … just like legendary author Arthur C. Clarke predicted 27 years ago.
In his 1982 book ‘2010: Odyssey Two’ – the follow-up to his mega hit novel, and movie by Stanley Kubrick, ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ – Clarke envisioned China entering, and then leaping ahead of both the US and the then USSR, in a prolonged Space Race.
