    gseeker and PW's paleontology fun times!

    Just a fun thread to discuss paleontology, the fossil record and evolution. Since I'm starting the thread I guess it's up to me to pick the first subject so here it goes: We have rocks identified by how they are formed into three basic categories... Igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. We...

    Home canning

    Anyone else here do home canning? How far have you taken it? We sometimes get windfalls of certain produce and fruit like one time we were given a whole case of blueberries and another time a dozen mangoes. We were stuck with what to do with them all before they went off (they were already...

    New feathered Dinosaur

    A newly described fossil of a juvenile theropod: Sciurumimus albersdoerferi, pushes feathers even further back into the dinosaur family tree. The genus name means "squirrel mimic" in honor of the bushy tail where most of the feathers are preserved. The species name is in honor of the owner of...

    Spring is here

    This is one of the first signs of spring where I grew up. The breaking up of the ice on the Wild Ammonoosuc and Ammonoosuc rivers. The wild river rarely actually ices all the way over (I never saw it happen) as the water flows to fast to freeze in many small pockets. Never the less...

    Job hunting

    Well, I just submitted my application to the Smithsonian. They have an opening for a fossil preparator and I figured no guts no glory. It's not everyday you get to apply for your dream job. Just had to share the nerve wracking excitement. :jiggy: wa:do

    is anyone up for giving it another shot? If so, what genre would you be interested in playing? (sci-fi, fantasy, horror, some sort of mix, other?) how would we do it? A mix of using the chat and thread functions here... maybe throw in a wiki page?) Let me know what you think... :D wa:do

    experimental protocells: TED Talks

    I've been browsing the TED Talks again and I found a couple really cool discussions on how to bridge the organic and inorganic divide. This one is super cool, you can watch the little non-living things move and interact with their envioronment... it's not very long 14:38. Martin Hanczyc: The...

    Help! I need votes!

    Ok.. so I hate to spam the forums, but I'm in an art contest and I could really use some help with the votes. :p First off the contest is for a good cause... every entry gets a 5$ donation sent to the International Child Art Foundation. Secondly, if I win... I get a free photography class...

    Another indigenous faith lost

    Today should be an international day of mourning for the loss of yet another unique culture. Samdup Taso - Telegraph Today, what was once living history is now just another old story. wa:do

    Science words vs. common words

    Found this picture and thought it would be useful to clear up some words that scientists use, that have different definitions than in common everyday speaking. The difference between how scientists speak to one another in publications and labs and how people on the street talk to one another...

    "Cargo Cult Science"

    An interesting talk about why pseudoscience fails to work and some examples of common pseudosciences and where they miss out. I would love to see some of these strive to be more scientific, do you think that knowing where they miss the mark will help them or would it just be dismissed...

    Experimental Creationism

    Is there any way to scientifically provide evidence of Creationism or Intelligent Design? (mind you this is not the same as disproving evolution) What sort of experiment would we be able to perform to test it? Any ideas? wa:do

    Major transitions in evolution

    I love fishapods! These wonderful critters are so perfectly blurring the line between fish and tetrapods that it's all but impossible to point to where one group ends and the other begins. The most traditionally fish-like: Panderichthys and Tiktaalik show wonderfully tetrapod like features of...

    Ask PW about her faith

    All respectful questions answered. :cool: Mind you, this is about my faith, I speak for myself and I am not an elder... I can't tell you about particular nations and there are some details that for spiritual reasons I must keep to myself. But I will do my best to answer any question you may...
