Ramblers once more edge Prescott in playoffs
SOMERSET -- Eau Claire Regis' Adam Ganske did the center jump for the Ramblers at the tip-off the WIAA Division 3 sectional semifinal basketball game vs. Prescott Thursday.
Somehow Ganske came back down to the floor and crumpled to the court with an apparent knee injury. He had to be helped over to the sidelines, putting no weight on his injured knee.
Yet, Ganske recovered quickly and found himself back in the ballgame.
And he made sure everyone knew it.

Last fall I seen my first Hummer (a female) in the ten years that I have lived here, she came around for several weeks feeding on the Hosta blooms so this spring I purchased some feeders and put them up about mid May, cleaning and refilling them every 3 days until about mid June with no hits that I knew of so I took them down as I had to have surgery, I put them back up a couple of weeks ago and for the first week I had a small female feeding right away, she looks like the one I seen last year (drab grayish color with a white band around her throat), the second week I seen both the female and the male and the female had to wait until the male was finished feeding now he wont let her feed at all (he has a green back,looks like a black head with a small strip of red on the sides and a white throat) I went to Hummingbird.net to try and identify the species however I couldn't find an exact match, not that it matters as I'm happy to have any species, but can anyone take a guess? Now that he's become territorial I may be able to snap a picture to post later.
Thanks, Rick
In Illinois, you likely have ruby-throated hummingbirds, although your description doesn't exactly tally with them. But they're by far the most common hummingbird in the east. Females have greyish white throats with iridescent green backs and tail feather, and males are similar except with the namesake ruby throat band that can also appear black or orange depending upon how the light hits it. There are variations from bird to bird, and eventually you can even identify your regulars by nuances of color markings or even head shape. Check out the links below to see if these hummers look like yours.
We posted at the exact same minute!...yes, you have ruby throats. Even though we're not as lucky in our species diversity as those in the west, ruby throats are wonderful birds and we have them in profusion here. Keep those feeders fresh and enjoy the show!
By the way, great first pics.

Re: Lucie Motivated for Melbourne Masterpiece
What a pathetic Australian Open. I've been a fan of Lucie (and by extension Tomas), since Hopman Cup 2007, and then of course she had that great run at AO couple weeks later, but then its mostly been 5 years of frustration since. And the story of their relationship was what first drew me in, so I thought when Lucie & Tomas broke up I'd stop caring, but I can't. I think I'll always care about Lucie
I which I could stop caring though, then I could avoid the repeated feeling of crushing dissapointment.

The hospitality of the host and staff which was amazingly professional ,helpful and knowlegable for such a small hotel .
The rooms were spotless, spacious and comfortable with stunning views of the harbor . The promise of access to a swimming pool was an added plus that some hotels in this price bracket just don't accommodate. The hotel was well displayed and it only took a question to a nearby shopowner to direct us in the right direction ,but the views far outdid this small inconvenience - Anonymous
Value for money. Very calm & quiet place. Owner was friendly & cooperative. Good ambiance.
Totally relaxing holiday. location is good. Morning you get to hear bird's chirping. - Anonymous

French premier says country 'at war with Al Qaeda'
France has declared war on Al Qaeda, and will boost support for African governments fighting the group's Islamic branch
|Report an Error
Share via Email
PARIS—France said on Monday it was at war with Al Qaeda's North African branch and will intensify military support for governments in the region combating the Islamist fighters who killed an elderly French hostage.
But Prime Minister François Fillon said Paris would continue to negotiate with hostage-takers whenever possible to save the lives of French citizens, provided their captors did not cross a "red line" by endangering their lives.
He was speaking in a radio interview a day after President Nicolas Sarkozy confirmed that Michel Germaneau, 78, kidnapped in Niger and held by Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, had been killed following a failed French rescue mission in Mali.
"We are at war with Al Qaeda and that's why we have been supporting Mauritanian forces fighting Al Qaeda for months," Fillon told Europe 1 radio, saying that AQIM consisted of about 400 fighters operating in a desert area the size of Europe.
Asked what Sarkozy meant when he said the killing of the retired engineer would not go unpunished, the prime minister said: "It means the fight against terrorism will continue and will be reinforced."
Asked if Paris would retaliate militarily, he said: "France does not practise revenge."
Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, on a delicate visit to Mali, which was angered by Paris' apparent failure to consult it on the raid, promised better cooperation with countries of the Sahel region in combating terrorism.
"As for coordinated operations, if you can do (them), I am a supporter of doing them properly and for a long time," he said after talks with Malian President Amadou Toumani Toure.
He noted that Malian forces were part of a regional military coordination headquarters in Tamanrasset, southern Algeria, which was working to combat AQIM.
Sarkozy has said he decided to launch a raid into Mali with Mauritanian forces last Thursday only after failing to establish any negotiating channel with the kidnappers and because he feared for the hostage's life after an Al Qaeda ultimatum.
Fillon said France was on maximum security alert and several attempted attacks were thwarted on French soil and in neighbouring countries each year.
However, Kouchner said he saw no increased threat of terrorism in France in the wake of the killing of Germaneau, who was kidnapped in Niger in April.
"I don't think we have the slightest bit of evidence of an increased danger," he told RTL radio in an interview.
The minister said he had not urged French nationals to leave the Sahel but had asked that they take increased safety precautions.
Malian defence officials voiced anger privately about the sidelining of their country, seen as a weak link in fighting AQIM due to a failure to crack down on groups based in the north and to reported links between some authorities and Islamists.
"We do not understand why, in the case of Germaneau, France leaves us to one side and launches a military operation with Mauritania, which ended up being a failure," a senior official in Mali's defence ministry told Reuters.
"Everyone knows that the failure of the operation guaranteed the death of the hostage."

MSI GeForce GTX 770 Lightning 2GB Overclocked Video Card Review
MSI's Lightning series is simply put one of my most favorite series when it comes to the video card market. MSI have always done a fantastic job with it and I always remember testing cards based under the Lightning series. Of course one of the best things about the Lightning series is that they're based on the highest end GPU options available.
Today the GTX 700 series which has been graced with the new Twin Frozr Gaming Series name finally sees its first Lightning based model. While we'd normally expect it to be the GTX 780, it's the model just below that, the GTX 770. The good news is, though, just the other day, we got a teaser video for a Lightning based GTX 780, which will hit us towards the end of this month or early next.
Let's get into the new MSI GTX 770 Lightning 2GB to see just what MSI are offering with the latest model we're testing. So, let's buckle down and start with the package before moving on from there.
Being a Lightning based card, we're dealing with quite a large box. As usual, though, the front of the box doesn't give us a ton of information. You can see the model and some of the main specifications in regards to the GTX 770. Once we open up the box, though, we are greeted with a ton of information covering some of the core features.
On the right hand side you can see the main Military Class III features are outlined including Copper MOSFETs, Highly Conductive Capacitors, Golden Solid State Choke and Dark Solid Capacitors, which all help make for a higher quality card that should overclock stronger than others.
Other features include the Unlocked Digital Power, which give us the ability to over volt the Core, Aux and Memory. We've also got the GPU Reactor which is designed to provide a higher current of capacity, hence offering better power support and overclocking stability. The other big feature is the 3x3 OC Kit which is the V-Check Points, Triple Overvoltage we just spoke about and Triple Temp Monitor.
Looking across the bottom we get our first look at the card. We also have some of the major features that cover the Twin Frozr IV cooler including Dual 10cm Fans, High Density Fins, Nickel-Plated Copper base, Propeller Blade Technology and Super-Pipe Technology. All which make up the Twin Frozr IV, a cooler that has impressed us many times already with this generation. Turning over the box, you can see we get some of the main features in regards to the actual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770.
Being a Lightning card, the bundle is larger than other video cards. You can see the Military Class III certificate, manual and driver CD. You can see we've also got a DVI to VGA connector, two 6-pin to 8-pin PCIe power connectors, an extra-long SLI cable, which is handy for these large coolers and finally three V-Check cables.

Nintendo 3DS
Anybody here still loving their original 3DS?
Nope. The original felt cheap so I traded it in for an XL. That felt cheap too, but its size highlighted its cheapness even more, so I traded that in for a Vita. Haven't looked back.
The early bird catches the worm but the second mouse always gets the cheese. Think about it.
XL wouldn't fit in my pocket. I can carry my 3DS in a case in my pocket just fine. Also for the money I spent I got the 3DLand bundle for $20 less than the cost of just an XL.
"Either way's good with me. But I wonder what Zanza would say about it."

Oh look,another kid who has XL and is jelly because original 3DS is more portable.
Actually, I have an original 3DS. You're adorable though, I'm sure when you grow up you'll be able to form a rational argument with the effort you put into this one.
n00bsaib0t, i agree with darkus and your arguement is invalid!
The argument that the XL is still wireless and smaller than a standard console, and can be taken anywhere? The XL is portable. You can be as mad about it as you want, it doesn't change the definition of the word. The XL is portable, 10 inch tablets are portable, laptops are portable, and the Sega Game Gear are all portable. All of those things are bigger than the 3DS XL. Its not my fault you guys don't have a strong enough grasp of the English language to know what portable means.
P.S I bet he is older than you so you do not call him a kid.
I'm 27. And if someone doesn't want to be called a kid, they shouldn't act like one. He sounds like a petty, jealous child that can't have an XL. He is using the sour grapes logic.

Nah, I like my 3ds but I would have gotten an XL if it was available at launch.
I only have the original 3DS, but I hope to get an XL soon. I am fed up with the dust and fingerprint magnet that the original 3DS is, plus Mario Kart 7 is painful to play for extended periods.
I'm not getting suckered into buying extra copies of the same hardware, the old 3ds is fine.
The original 3DS in Flame Red is fine. I just wish the game developers would learn to proigram for it. Ace Combat is good. Everything else I've tried is disappointing. Hopefully Monster Hunter will make it out of localization hell.
I'm waiting for Bandai to release the WonderSwan/SwanCrystal II and blow both the Vita and the 3DS away.

Well when i look at your childlish immature posts complaining about everything,i still dont call you kid even tho i think you are about 14.
If you really are 27, you should be ashamed of your posts and you should think about it because you really arent showing any matureness with those posts.

|Captain Sensible was born as Raymond Burns in Balham, London on 24 April 1954, moving to Croydon later on where he became interested in guitars.
|His first steps on the 'showbiz' ladder were taken in a covers band called Oasis. Sensible then joined Croydon legends the Johnny Moped band before co-founding punk rock band The Damned in 1976 on the suggestion of his work colleague Rat Scabies who had just become the band's drummer. Fulfilling a number of positions during his tenure (bassist, lead guitarist, keyboards) Sensible would eventually become one of the band's main songwriters. And how can we forget his signature headwear - "a red beret".
The Damned were one of the original punk bands in the UK, certainly the first to get a record contract and release a single -
|"New Rose" in November 1976. Their debut album "Damned Damned Damned" entered the charts in 1977, also a first for a punk band and by now getting used leading the field the Damned then found themselves first on the covers of the music papers, first to tour America and the first to split up and get back together again in 1978. In the original line-up Sensible had started out as bassist but took over lead guitar duties after the departure of Brian James.
|Sensible left The Damned in the mid 1980's to concentrate on his solo projects, reinventing himself as an alternative pop singer with a rebellious, self-conscious image after having a UK number one hit in 1982 with a cover of "Happy Talk" the Rodgers and Hammerstein song from South Pacific. Many performances on Top Of The Pops followed usually featuring backing vocals by Dolly Mixture. The song was later sampled for rap artist Dizzee Rascal's 2004 song "Dream". Other Sensible hits in the UK and Europe were Rap parody "Wot?" (sampled in 2000 by Brazilian rapper "Gabriel o Pensador" for "2345meia78"), the Christmas sceptic "One Christmas Catalogue" and anti-Falklands War song "Glad It's All Over". After quitting A&M Records he continued recording for various independent labels, including Deltic Records and Humbug Records.
|Captain Sensible has also toured with his solo band Punk Floyd. His recording of "The Snooker Song" from Mike Batt's musical The Hunting Of The Snark was used as the theme music for the BBC gameshow Big Break for many years.
In breaks from band activities Sensible has been known to produce advertisements (Weetabix, Kingsmill Bread, Wotsits, etc) while also writing music for movie soundtracks such as "Brain's Theme" for the horror flick Skinned Deep in 2004.
He sometimes makes time to perform with Dead Men Walking, a punk supergroup featuring Mike Peters (The Alarm), Kirk Brandon (Spear of Destiny) and Slim Jim Phantom (Stray Cats).
|Fans of the Captain should also check out the Dr Spacetoad Experience - a band dedicated to re-creating exciting live rock festival music from the early 70's where he returns to bass duties this time.
Singer Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible got The Damned back together in 1996 co-writing "Grave Disorder" in 2001, the band's first new studio album for 8 years. This was released on The Offspring's label 'Nitro Records'.
In September 2006, he formed a new British political grouping known as the Blah! Party in his disgust at the lack of choice of policies on offer from the established parties - particularly on the subject of the Iraq and Afghan wars.
He continues to tour with The Damned world wide today - they released their latest album "So, Who's Paranoid?" on 17 November 2008.
Captain Sensible solo albums:
• Women and Captains First (1982)
• The Power of Love (1983)
• Revolution Now (1989)
• The Universe of Geoffrey Brown (1993)
• Live at the Milky Way (1994)
• Meathead (1995)
• Mad Cows and Englishmen (1996)
The Universe of Geoffrey Brown - reviewed by Jack Rabid
|A Captain Sensible LP is a rare event. Since his first two albums appeared in 1981 and 1982 while he was still in the Damned, only 1989's Revolution Now and this new effort have been released. Not that it's completely his fault; this new work was completed over two years ago -- it stinks when a legend of this ability can't find someone willing to issue an already recorded album. Nonetheless, the good Captain doesn't fail us and never has. While not as strong as Revolution Now, all of his usual goofy, nostalgic neo-psychedelic guitar tricks and surprisingly crafted pop tunes are in place and sound 1993 despite his most retro prank yet: "Damned" if this isn't a concept album about one Geoffrey Brown, whose sedate corporate life is turned topsy-turvy when now-extinct aliens start leaving warning messages on his computer screen about our similar self-inflicted demise. The concept is amusing, listening to Brown's wife, co-workers and
|friends abandon him as a crackpot only for the government to recognize his value in the end. It combines two common Sensible themes: our own self-destructive impulses and the ostracizing of folks who go against accepted practices and actually dare to use their own brains; can there be any other truly lasting positive message from the supposedly (not really) nihilistic (actually really fun) punk days that loony-tunes like Sensible helped found? And such glitzy tunes as "Holiday in My Heart", "Street of Shame" and the title track claw their way into your affections in a few plays. The man can write -- like his pal Robyn Hitchcock, only much more consistently and without the nonsense lyrics, Sensible loves a pop song, knows one when he hears one or writes one, and has 30 years of great pop song riffs and styles stored in his brain to compose his own. Ever since the Damned's masterful Strawberries revealed his prowess, he's been loved by those in the know: He's one-third ridiculous clown, one-third lovable English eccentric incapable of growing old, and one-third (barely noticed as a result) great artist. Sensible has made some of the happiest, most enjoyable tunes around ever by a musician so scoffed at, and this is another ambitious yet modest gem from a true personality original.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Boko Haram prey on frustration around Lake Chad
Squint a little, and the region skirting Lake Chad in central Africa resembles Mosul and Tikrit in northern Iraq: dried-out canals, scrubby plains and ragtag bands of Islamists with guns beneath an unrelenting sun.
Thanks to satellite television, the long-suffering residents around the lake, which abutted Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria until it began to dry up and shrink during the past few decades, have a rough understanding of what has happened recently in Iraq. They can imagine only too well being overrun by insurgents.
Many see parallels between the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the savage group that has captured a string of Iraqi towns, and Boko Haram, the equally murderous Nigerian outfit that is striving to expand its base beyond its original area southwest of Lake Chad. The question everyone in the region is asking is whether the Nigerian bunch of beheaders can replicate the audacious territorial conquest of its Arab-led counterpart.
Strolling along what used to be the shoreline before it receded, Habib Yaba, a Chadian politician from Massakory, northeast of N'Djamena, the capital, points to a white pickup truck of unknown provenance driving across the flat lake bed from the west. The border there is unmarked.
"Look how easy it is for anyone to roam around," he said, and goes on to describe local Islamists as increasingly numerous, well-armed and ambitious. "They rely on religious as well as ethnic links that cross the lake, and they tap into the frustrations of our people."
Gloomy youths standing in the shade of a nearby gas station sound ambivalent toward Boko Haram. Most would rather have jobs than become religious marauders, but, given the chance, they may be tempted to join a group that evidently is successful.
"Not many other winners here," one said.
Their parents, sitting in cement buildings littered across a treeless expanse, say that they worry that their children will be receptive to recruitment drives by Boko Haram. They also report an increase in nighttime traffic, which they blame on insurgent movements.
Regional governments are fully aware of the threat and have tried to counter it. Chad is sending ever more troops to the border. Checkpoints and military vehicles are visible on the roads outside N'Djamena, which is close to the lake. A sweating colonel wearing full battle dress in the midday sun swears loudly while inspecting traffic near Bongor, a town close to the border with Cameroon, 125 miles south of N'Djamena.
Oil-rich Chad has one of the fiercest armies on the continent, and it has deployed peacekeepers in Mali and the Central African Republic. Earlier this year its air force took delivery of three MIG-29 jets from Ukraine, an unusually sophisticated weapon by the standards of the region. Chad also has a batch of Russian-supplied combat helicopters.
Neighbouring countries are quite a bit feebler, however. Nigeria's armed forces are plagued with corruption, and its rate of desertion is high. Niger is poor even by regional standards and militarily unable to cope.
The weakest link in the region, however, is Cameroon. Nigeria closed its border with Cameroon in February and has called its government negligent. Unlike Chad and Niger, it does not allow troops from neighbouring countries the right of hot pursuit across its border.
That may be partly because Cameroon and Nigeria lack an agreed frontier due to a long-running territorial dispute. The United Nations' attempt to mark the 1,300-mile boundary, which cuts across mountains and deserts, may be the biggest project of its kind in the world.
In May Cameroon at last deployed a thousand troops to the border region. Within weeks they had killed 40 fighters apparently allied to Boko Haram in Kousseri, on the border with Chad. More firefights have taken place since then.
In May regional heads of state met in France in an attempt to boost military and intelligence cooperation. They are backed by other Western powers, but old animosities, linguistic differences between Anglophone and Francophone troops, and rampant theft and incompetence mean that this will have a limited effect.
A glum Western diplomat said, "If the Iraqi army, aided by America and Iran, cannot stop marauding Islamists, then … "
The International Crisis Group, a Brussels-based lobby, warned in April about Boko Haram activity in "weak countries poorly equipped to combat a radical Islamist armed group tapping into real governance, corruption, impunity and underdevelopment grievances shared by most people in the region."
In May Boko Haram fighters attacked a camp of Chinese workers near Waza, in northern Cameroon, taking 10 of them hostage. This was the group's biggest operation across the border so far. Its fighters methodically cut off the electricity supply to the camp, then besieged it for five hours before overwhelming its armed guards. Sure enough, the Cameroonian cavalry failed to turn up.
The current crisis next door in the C.A.R. has made it even harder to counter Boko Haram. More than 100,000 refugees have poured into Chad and Cameroon. The border region, from Sarh to Ngaoundere, is dotted with makeshift camps. Sticks prop up ragged tarpaulins.
United Nations officials have warned that the host countries cannot cope. The camps could become breeding grounds for further violence.
"We have seen this before," one said. "The Rwandan genocide 20 years ago begot the camps across the border in Goma and the Congolese civil war and so on."
Arms smuggling has spiked. In the past year government armories in the C.A.R. have been looted systematically, often by Islamist rebels who were beaten back with French help but managed to take the weapons with them. Local security experts report a marked increase in the sale of AK-47s as well as heavier stuff. Police have discovered several ammunition dumps apparently used by Boko Haram.
Western governments have expressed concern that Boko Haram could link up with known al-Qaida offshoots in Libya and Somalia. The greater immediate danger, however, seems to be its full-scale expansion into neighbouring countries that do not yet have a strong Islamist presence.
Boko Haram's confidence has grown since it kidnapped more than 200 Nigerian schoolgirls in April. Rather than wilting under the Western attention drawn by the attack, with U.S. first lady Michelle Obama leading the call to "bring back our girls," the group has been boosted by the impotent reaction of regional governments.
Some of the girls are thought to have been sent across Lake Chad. Many locals believe that Nigerian fighters will follow, not running away but conquering.

When a young suburban (usually white) girl goes into the big city looking for drugs. (usually because her habit is blossoming or her normal hookup is busted/retired. Young black street dealers offer incredable deals to these young women and befriend them or introduce them to a specialist. In short order they are getting free drugs and in love. From there it's the oldest story ever told.

25 Fun "Frozen" Facts Including Silly Mistakes and a Hilarious Note in the End Credits
If you (or more likely, your kids) are still singing the songs from Disney's smash hit "Frozen" more than a year later, don't worry — you'll have a whole new set of songs in the not-too-distant future.
Disney announced plans for a "Frozen 2," much to the delight of children everywhere and questionable enthusiasm from parents still trying to "Let It Go" from the first one. While there is no official release date as of yet, it's planned for 2018.
So there's plenty of time to brush up on your "Frozen" trivia with these 25 behind-the-scenes facts.
Idina Menzel and Kristen Bell tried out for "Tangled" first.
Idina Menzel and Kristen Bell both auditioned for Disney's 2010 "Tangled" role of Rapunzel. Although that didn't pan out, it was those auditions that helped them land the roles of Anna and Elsa.
Via: Time
There's a hidden code in some of the main characters' names.
The characters of Hans, Kristof, Anna and Sven are a tribute to Hans Christian Andersen, the author of "The Snow Queen," which inspired "Frozen." Say the names quickly in sequence and hear the similarity.

Australopithecine's fatal fall preserved this fine fossil in a post-Flood cavern collapse.
Australopithecus prometheus, aka "Little Foot" and "StW 573," after two decades of research and debate is finally receiving the attention accorded to more well-known names in the hominid hall-of-fame. Little Foot, from the evolutionary point of view, may finally fill the shoes of its mythological namesake by offering humanity an appropriately mythological gift,1 the gift of identifying our oldest hominid2 ancestor.
This South African australopithecine ape, discovered in a Sterkfontein cavern by University of Witwatersrand paleontologist Ronald Clarke, has the distinction of being the most complete australopithecine skeleton yet found. But the brass ring for lasting fame in hominid research demands great age. Even with cute names, contenders for the "oldest human ancestor" need a truly superlative age to achieve lasting fame. Little Foot was once a winner using the 3.3 million year paleomagnetic date originally obtained by Clarke and colleagues and an even more impressive date of around 4 million years obtained using another method. Subsequent re-dating to 1.5 to 2.2 million years by other researchers, however, relegated Little Foot to the back bench. Now a detailed analysis of the bits of sediment tucked in the nooks and crannies of StW 573's resting place suggests, researchers say, that Clarke's original estimate was correct.
Little Foot's saga began in 1994 with the discovery of four australopithecine foot bones in a box of miscellaneous bones from the Sterkfontein limestone cave system 23 miles northwest of Johannesburg, South Africa. They corresponded to a small foot, hence the diminutive moniker. When a fragment of tibia that seemed to match showed up in another box, Clarke sent a team to excavate the cave from which the bones had come. Amid the debris in the Silberberg Grotto, much of which was left from blasting operations, they found matching parts of the broken tibia. The date was July 3, 1997. Excavation of the accumulated rubble eventually yielded a nearly (about 95%) complete australopithecine skeleton with one arm flung over its head and the other by its side.
Though resembling Australopithecus africanus, a hominid commonly identified in South African dig sites, Clarke believes Little Foot has sufficient differences to merit its own species name, Australopithecus prometheus. Though many researchers still consider Little Foot an africanus, Clarke will likely publish additional anatomical details to justify the unique and noble name. Given that this fossil is being distinguished from africanus, Laurent Bruxelles of France's archaeological research institute INRAP, said that one of the two lineages "might have been a close ancestor of the first humans, while the other probably left no descendants."3
In the evolutionary story—especially the human evolutionary story—age is everything. As London's Natural History Museum human evolution expert Chris Stringer said regarding a controversial group of Homo fossils, "If we cannot correctly fix the age and identity of the remains then we are in trouble. Getting that wrong even effects how we construct our own evolution."4 The present study of Little Foot, published in the Journal of Human Evolution with Bruxelles as lead author, therefore, focuses on regaining a more ancient age for the promethean fossil.
The original age of 3.3 million years was assigned by Clarke and Tim Partridge on the basis of paleomagnetic analysis of layers of "flowstone," thin sheets of rock formed by calcium carbonate precipitation from flowing water. As excavation continued, however, Clarke's team realized that the flowstone had been deposited some time after Little Foot's death, for the femurs were broken through and displaced. Separate deposits of flowstone had formed over various parts of the skeleton. Subsequent analysis of the flowstone by other researchers yielded a variety of younger dates ranging 1.5 to 2.58 million years.
It was apparent to Clarke's team that analysis of the carbonate flowstone, because it was deposited some time after Little Foot's death, was not a valid way to date StW 573. Bruxelles, Clarke, and their coauthors write, "Despite this, some investigators have published further dates for the StW 573 skeleton based on U-Pb (uranium-lead) dating of the flowstones, but without taking into account the complexity of the sedimentary record and demonstrably limited applicability of the flowstones."5 Bruxelles therefore set out to analyze the complex arrangement of flowstone in and around the skeleton.
"The detailed stratigraphic study around StW 573, with supporting observations of thin sections and geochemical analysis, combine to indicate that the collection of stalagmitic flowstones were formed after the deposition and disturbance of the breccia containing the StW 573 skeleton,"6 Bruxelles, Clarke, and their coauthors write. The illustrations included in this article show some of the many deposits of flowstone and breccia (cemented rubble) surrounding the displaced femurs and pelvis. This suggests that collapse of the cavern and continuing precipitation of flowstone took place some time after the australopithecine died and was buried. They conclude, "that the skeleton was deposited considerably earlier than the adjacent flowstones, and that it is among the most ancient Australopithecus fossils so far known in South Africa. This potentially great age, coupled with the morphological analysis of the skeleton, places StW 573 in a key position for revealing information on the phylogeny of our ancestors."7
Of course, having discredited the various younger flowstone dates ascribed to Little Foot by other researchers, the question remains, how can scientists determine an age for Little Foot? Bruxelles, Clarke, and their coauthors explain, "The question then arises as to whether it is at all possible to establish a reasonably accurate radiometric age for the StW 573 skeleton. Although minimum ages of 2.2 Ma have been determined, it remains difficult to say how much older the skeleton may be. . . . The skeleton is significantly older than the adjacent flowstones and it could be closer in age to that originally estimated by Clarke (1998), i.e., about 3 Ma."8
Unable to rely on the radiometric dates of the rock (the breccia) entombing Little Foot, Clarke's team needs an alternative dating method. They write, "As we cannot use the flowstones to provide a radiometric age for StW 573, it will be necessary to find other dating methods not focusing in any way on post-depositional modification of the deposit but to its original deposition. Cosmogenic nuclide burial dating [an analysis based on changes induced by exposure to the sun, which yielded an age near 4 million years] has so far not given good results, probably because chert clasts included in breccia have different origins."9
Clarke's original age estimate is now being popularly viewed as a valid minimum age for StW 573. Little Foot is finally back in the running for oldest hominid fossil in the South African "Cradle of Humankind,"10 having a default age comparable to East Africa's Australopithecus afarensis (Lucy) assigned age of 3.2 million years.
Australopithecines are not human ancestors but only extinct apes.Before considering the implications of Bruxelle et al.'s stratigraphic analysis, we should reiterate, as we have discussed in many other articles, that australopithecines are not human ancestors but only extinct apes. Future papers discussing Australopithecus prometheus will doubtless give us the opportunity to address specific claims about Little Foot's identity. For now, read more about the distinctions between human fossils—like Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis, Homo antecessor, Homo heidelbergensis, and Homo sapiens—and extinct apes like Ardipithecus ramidus (aka "Ardi," currently sporting the impressive age of 4.4 million years but having trouble meeting the evolutionary demands of bipedality) and the well-known, allegedly bipedal australopithecine apes like Australopithecus afarensis ("Lucy"), Australopithecus sediba ("Karabo"), and Australopithecus africanus.
There are, incidentally, a lot of similarities among the australopithecines, and some researchers maintain that Australopithecus sediba is really just another example of Australopithecus africanus. The subtle distinctions that distinguish species from one another can often be sorted out in living creatures because their ability to interbreed can be assessed. Fossils divulge far less information to scientists, but the distinctions between different created kinds—like between apes and humans—are far more apparent when sufficiently complete specimens are available. (You can learn more about the distinctions between fossilized extinct apes and fossilized human varieties in Dr. David Menton's video presentation Three Ways to Make an Ape Man and Dr. Terry Mortenson's Ape-Men: The Grand Illusion.)
We know from God's Word that humans (Adam and Eve) and land animals—including apes—were made on the same day, about 6,000 years ago as separate creations, humans alone being made in the image of God. Humans are also anatomically and intellectually distinct from apes. The fossil record shows diversity of apes and even diversity among humans but a distinct absence of "missing links" because as biology demonstrates, animals reproduce and vary within their created kinds but do not evolve into new, more complex kinds of creatures.
Bruxelles, Clarke, and their coauthors have shown that the dates assigned by other researchers are invalid. They admit, however, that they really have no way, even with the usual evolutionary assumptions, to determine the age of Little Foot. They fall back n the ~3 million year date, however, because that is the age assigned to an associated "index fossil"—a fossil of "known" age by which other fossils in comparable strata can be dated.
Answers in Genesis geologist , commenting on their analysis, says:
This study very carefully shows the relative sequence of deposits in the cave. The authors have very successfully demonstrated that the Australopithecus skeleton StW 573 is older than the flowstone deposits that were previously dated by the U-Pb radiometric method; at supposedly 2.2 million years old. The skeleton is entombed in a breccia which has been locally eroded to create voids, which were later infilled with the flowstones, though not before part of the skeleton was broken and shifted by subsidence.
The details provided by this study also discount the previous attempt to date the breccia enclosing the fossil at supposedly about 4 million years old using the Al-26 and Be-10 cosmogenic burial method. So they conclude the fossil may be as old as about supposedly 3 million years, based on the original determination of the fossil's discoverer at the time of discovery in 1997 using an associated index fossil.
The only conclusion that is certain is that the fossil is as old as the breccia it is buried in and older than the flowstone associated with it. But that's where the certainty ends.
Dr. Snelling points out that every date in this and the associated earlier studies of Australopithecus prometheus and the minerals entombing it are steeped in unverifiable, worldview based assumptions. Describing some of these, he says:
All their postulated dates are dependent on the unprovable assumptions on which the uniformitarian (slow-and-gradual) worldview depends. These include constant radioisotope decay rates (at today's measured rates) and a closed system during the presumed millions of years without the possibilities of contamination.
The latter assumption is problematic given the recognized intermittent water flows in the cave and the solution saturation necessary for flowstone deposition capable of moving trace elements with such solutions. The rate of acquisition of cosmogenic isotopes is based on assuming constant geologic process rates in the past, which cannot be tested by observation because the past is gone.
The index fossil method relies on assuming both the reliability of radioisotope dating of deposits associated with such fossils where they are found elsewhere, and that the same animals evolved and lived at the same time in widely scattered geographic locations across the globe, both of which again cannot be verified in the unobserved past.
To estimate Little Foot's age, we need to compare the analysis of the Sterkfontein cave with an eyewitness account of a relevant time in earth's geological history. We know from God's Word that the global Flood a little more than 4,300 years ago remodeled earth's surface. Flood-based geological models help Bible-believing scientists understand the most likely geological changes that occurred not only during but also in the aftermath of the Flood. Dr. Snelling explains the findings in StW 573's naturally formed tomb in terms of a post-Flood catastrophe. He says:
In the end, we can say with certainty that nothing so far claimed about this fossil's age is incompatible with the biblical framework and its chronology for earth history. The cave, like so many others around the globe, is a product of early post-Flood dissolution (chemical erosion) of limestone and dolomite layers (deposited during the Flood) only 4,300 years ago when there were much higher precipitation rates due to huge storms dumping torrential rainfalls on the continents because of the warmer ocean waters (a result of the release of enormous volumes of volcanic waters during the Flood).
Those wetter conditions would also have caused the breccias in the cave to accumulate rapidly from ceiling rock-falls, which makes sense of the full skeleton of the Australopithecine (a post-Flood ape whose relatives migrated within decades to Africa from the Ark) being rapidly buried and preserved intact. The subsequent erosion of voids and their infilling with flowstones need not have taken more than hundreds of years, due to the changing and variable climatic conditions.
Viewing the evidence in light of biblical history, we can safely say that Little Foot is an ape that most likely died around 4,300 years ago. Extinct ape fossils in Africa are typically found deeper in the fossil record than human fossils. Following the global Flood, animals disembarked and began to move away, reproduce, and replenish the earth. Despite God's command, however, the descendants of Noah's family delayed moving out to replenish the earth until forced to by the confusion at the tower of Babel. The history in the Bible thus makes sense of apes' placement in the fossil record, which has nothing to do with evolution.

The terms hominin and hominid are both words whose definitions embody the evolutionary assumptions 1) that humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor through a series of pre-human and extinct human species and 2) that humans and modern Great Apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans) share a common ancestor.
Hominid (as it is currently used by most writers) refers to all these individuals—modern humans, modern Great Apes, and all presumed the ancestors of both, back to the common ape-like ancestor.
Hominin refers only to the human side of the evolutionary lineage after it branched off from the common ancestor supposedly shared with apes. Hominins are thus modern and extinct humans and all their immediate ancestors, back to the common ape-like ancestor.
Thus, in current usage, the word hominid includes all hominins plus all the Great Apes and their ancestors.

The reason the phone was not being answered was because Google published the incorrect telephone number.It took forever for us to get that number removed. Call us @ 756--8606.

I appreciate the concern which is been rose. The things need to be sorted out because it is about the individual but it can be with everyone.The above thought is smart and doesn't require any further addition. It's perfect thought from my side.Barbara
Descent inventory, slightly high prices by iKNOWu - 05/29/2008
If you can't find what you're looking for in the store, they can probably special order it for you, which I found to be a plus. The only down side here is that a few of the items are a little pricey, but if you're looking for a one-stop party-shop, it's your best bet!

Any ideas for 'unobtrusive' wire supports on cedar posts?
Greetings fellow clem lovers!
Ok, gotta problem...small one...but would like to hear your ideas. We've got a new pergola going up that has several 6"x6" rough-sawn cedar posts which are destined to be the new climbing homes for clems. I'm trying to come up with a system for adding wire to these posts for the tendrils to easily grab BUT I want the system to be as unobtrusive as possible. Meaning, I don't want to surround the posts with wire fencing material or anything like that. The cedar is really beautiful and we want to be able to see it (until its covered with vines, of course :>) One thought is to install eye bolts intermittently up the posts and then thread 16-18 gauge wire through it. This will take a lot more time to install but I'm thinking the overall look will be one of minimal hardware.
If I go with this system, could someone give me a suggestion for spacing?
Any other suggestions/opinions are more than welcome! And thank you.
The other thing you could do is spray paint the wire to match the background of what the wire is in front of. Use a colored Rustoleum flat or satin. I use a tan color , against my treated wood deck railings. I think it looks less noticeable.
gardengal always has such great ideas. fyi to others but not for you: on our driveway, we have an antique dark green painted pergola/entrance into our gardens We grow potted clematis up its posts, first wrapping black plastic melon netting around the posts and securing it w/ dark green twist-ties.
