Okonomiyaki is a casual, fun dish that's quite popular with foreign visitors to Japan. It's basically a savory pancake made with seafood, pork, cabbage and other vegetables, cooked on a flat grill and dressed with mayonnaise and tangy sauce. The "okonomi" part of the name means "what you like," and customers can choose their own favorite ingredients to add to their pancakes. Many shops have customers cook their own okonomiyaki at the table.
This is a dish with very distinct regional variations. In Osaka-style okonomiyaki, all the component ingredients are mixed together in a bowl of batter, then spread out on the grill for cooking. The Hiroshima version is more complicated and takes longer to prepare, as the chef (not the customer) assembles distinct layers of toppings, vegetables, noodles, fried egg and pancake base into the final product.
Finally, there's a version called monjayaki, which is similar to Osaka style but with a thinner, runnier batter. Monjayaki is generally found only in the Tokyo area, particularly in the Tokyo Bay neighborhood of Tsukishima, which is home to dozens of monjayaki restaurants clustered together in one small zone.
If you're in a cook-it-yourself shop, once you've decided on your main ingredient (e.g. pork, shrimp or squid) and your optional fillings, the waiter will turn on the grill at your table, brush on some oil, and deliver a bowl with the batter and ingredients. Mix these together and pour the mixture onto the grill (once it's hot enough), then use a spatula to turn over your pancake when it's ready.
Note that this might take a bit longer than you would expect; ask your waiter for advice if you're not sure, or watch what other diners are doing. If there's an option for the waiter or chef to cook your okonomiyaki, you might want to take them up on their offer unless you're feeling adventurous.
If you're in a Hiroshima-style shop, the ordering process is a bit different - in addition to choosing ingredients like shrimp and squid, you'll generally have an option of either "soba" noodles (actually thin ramen-style wheat noodles) or thicker udon noodles. There may also be an option for no noodles at all. The chef will prepare your pancake and serve it on the grill in front of you. Cut the pancake into bite-size rectangles, and add extra sauce, mayonnaise and other condiments to taste as you eat.
The metal grill in an okonomiyaki restaurant is called a teppan, and menus will feature other foods prepared on the teppan grill, such as yakisoba (stir-fried ramen-style noodles with vegetables and sauce) and grilled seafood, vegetables and meat. Many shops have one large teppan grill with a counter surrounding it (a good place to watch the chefs in action), while others have separate grills at each table.
Often okonomiyaki restaurants will also prepare items individually on the teppanyaki grill.

It’s pretty difficult to indulge in delicious food and still be beach ready. Luckily, the clean eating trend doesn’t seem to be such a trend anymore. In fact, being vegan and eating healthy is starting to become the norm for many people. Because of this we’re seeing more and more vegan/ healthy options popping up. Miami is known for its beautiful beaches and savory foods but now you can add vegan to the list of foods popular in town! Check out these vegan spots next time you’re in Miami.
This café is located in the heart of Miami, inside of Love Life Wellness center, a place where you can schedule workouts/yoga classes, holistic services, and of course, eat! This place is dedicated to offering customers a way to heal both mentally and physically. However, if you’re only interested in the food than that’s okay too. The café offers everything from breakfast to soups to burgers to pizza! Everything is made with health in mind, so you won’t feel guilty eating it.
If you have a sweet tooth, Chef Chloe and The Vegan Café is the place for you. They offer cake, cookies, cupcakes, and more. The food taste good, looks good, and the café is located in the Miami design district - you’ll be Instagraming everything! The staff is also a huge part of the welcoming feeling because they’re so attentive and willing to help in any way they can. There’s also the fact that the café is so popular that even celebrities go there. All this aside, the food is what stands out the most. If you didn’t know it was vegan food, you’d never be able to tell.
Don’t let the name fool you. DIRT is all about clean-eating which is why they offer vegan options to their customers. The idea is to have inclusivity at the restaurant so anyone who wants to eat clean can enjoy - vegan or not. With two locations in Miami, DIRT has been the talk of the town for offering fresh, delicious food. Jeff LaTulippe, co-founder, says he started DIRT because he struggled with his weight in the past and wanted to provide a place where you didn’t have to compromise on taste in order to eat clean.
Delirio Fresh offers abundant meals to give you tons of energy for your day. They’re unique however, because they practice what they preach. Not only do they have four locations in Miami where you can go to enjoy some healthy vegan food, but they also offer meal plans to be delivered right to your door.

Almalibre Açaí Bar aims at feeding your adventurous sprit in hopes of giving you the courage to go out and do what you’ve always wanted. They have a number of items on their menu, but their acai is by far the most popular. Almalibre carries a unique formula for their acai that no one else in the world offers (because they own the rights to it of course). Nevertheless, the acai is creamy and flavorful and according to the owner, the #1 acai not just in Miami but in Florida!
Vegan & Juice is a quaint little place in Miami that offers fresh, healthy vegan food. They stress the importance of health and treating our bodies like delicate temples that should be treasured. Along with the use of science, the staff at Vegan & Juice understand what our bodies need to be healthy and they incorporate that into their food options. The menu is unique in flavor and choices and everything tastes exquisite.

Tasmania's Alex Doolan scored the first century of the Sheffield Shield summer before Queensland fought back on a Gabba green top with more bark than bite.
The Tigers reached 5-257 at stumps on day one of the Shield season after George Bailey won the toss and opted to bat under grey skies on what looked to be a menacingly green wicket on Tuesday.
But, in a rematch of last year's Shield final, the visitors handled it with early aplomb to cruise to 1-188 before a late Bulls fightback - including a collapse of 3-7 - restored the balance.
Former Test No.3 Doolan (115) looked typically untroubled in reaching his 10th first class century, slaying anything short through point and dispatching a Mitchell Swepson full toss to the square leg boundary to bring up triple figures late in the second session.
"We were keen to take on the challenge of batting first here and hopefully tomorrow it quickens up and our bowlers can do a bit of damage," the four-Test player told AAP.
The 32-year-old said continuing Tasmania's resurgence, rather than pushing for another chance at the highest level, would drive him this season.
"I don't think about it at all," he said of his chances of a Test berth this summer.
"I think that ship's probably sailed for me and if someone gets caught up in thinking about Test spots, who's in and who's out, it just takes away from your own game.
"Tassie's come a long way in the last 12 months, 18 months, to challenge for silverware in almost every competition we play."
A patient 43 from Beau Webster, who shared in a 134-run stand for the second wicket with Doolan, helped Tasmania into a commanding position after a slightly delayed start due to rain.
But Queensland's patience was rewarded late in the day, with Peter George (3-42) finding the centurion's edge and Luke Feldman (1-49 off 26 overs) toiling hard.
Former Test gloveman Matthew Wade was unbeaten on 37 at stumps and will be key to their push for a 350-plus total on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Queensland trio Matthew Renshaw, Michael Neser and Brendan Doggett will fly home after not being selected for the second Test in the United Arab Emirates, but will not be available until the second round of Shield action against South Australia in Adelaide.

I want you to bookmark this blog post and pull it out on another day when you need encouragement in public speaking and persistence, because it is a tale that will make your speaking troubles look small.
Kevin O'Neal of The Indianapolis Star reported a remarkable story today about special education teacher Mary French, who got to give her high school valedictorian speech...this week, 42 years after her graduation from Arkansas's Foreman High School. French, who is black, attended the all-black half of the high school until the two merged during her years there. But when she graduated in 1968 with the highest grade-point average in the school, it was determined that she hadn't attended for all four years--since some of them were spent in the segregated side of Foreman, across town. A white girl in her class gave the valedictory address instead.
Over the years, French has returned to Foreman -- a town of about 1,100 just a few miles from where Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas come together -- and each time, she has felt disappointment when walking past a display honoring the school's valedictorians. French, now 60, shared her story with her colleagues at Fall Creek Valley Middle School, a Northeastside school where she has taught special education for 20 years. "We heard that story, and our jaws hit the floor," Kathy Luessow, principal at Fall Creek Valley Middle School, said Wednesday. "We asked how that could happen, and she said that was a different time."
We know this is only the beginning of a long journey. We understand as we go to college, we still will be confronted with obstacles that will certainly deter us. But remember, all things are possible if we believe....Let's travel. Let's start our own businesses. Let's become teachers. Let's become lawyers, doctors or whatever we desire. We should commend ourselves that we can be whatever we want to be.
You can read the valedictory speech she wrote, in full, here. Yes, the words read poignantly today, in light of the story--her "all things are possible if we believe" theme turned out to be true. But more than that, this is an excellent valediction, with simple but stirring language, a hopeful view of the future, a focus on students and teachers, and fitting, rather than overdone, rhetorical flourishes.
If someone knows of video out there of this late-in-coming valediction, please leave a link to it in the comments. I'm so delighted to share this wonderful story with you, and welcome your reactions. Please do pass this on to a friend or colleague and share this inspiring tale.

It’s hard to believe that a road dog like Bob Weir hasn’t put out an album of completely original work for over 30 years – but thus is the nature of being a road dog like Bob Weir.
Fresh off the road with Dead & Company, Weir is embarking on a new solo adventure. The album’s called Blue Mountain, and we’re extremely excited to present some of it as part of this week’s “New Tracks on the Trail” program.
Described as an homage to Bob’s love of the cowboy music of his youth (he spent some time working in Wyoming when he was 15), it took three years for the album to evolve into full fruition. It will be released Sept. 30.
-Todd Snider: Tracks from his new album, Eastside Bulldog. Featuring improvised lyrics the album shares the lore of Snider’s hard-partying alter ego, Elmo Buzz: “… Songs about East Nashville, chicks, cars, fighting, partying and Bocephus – and that’s it,” Snider explained.
Eastside Bulldog features contributions from Elizabeth Cook, Jason Isbell, Amanda Shires, Chris Robinson, Hank Williams III and Shooter Jennings. It’s set for Oct. 7 release.
-The Pretenders: Cuts from the band’s first new album in eight years, Alone.
Speaking of alone – singer/guitarist Chrissie Hynde is the only original member of the band to appear on the record. In fact, this version of the band represents the 12th iteration of The Pretenders.
ll precede a five-week U.S. tour with Stevie Nicks.
Check out the Pitchfork review HERE.
-The Avett Brothers: Tracks from the North Carolina folk rock band’s ninth full-length album, True Sadness.
Preview the album and read a critical review HERE.
-Hamish Anderson: Work from the Australian blues artist’s long-anticipated album, Trouble.
Gary Clark Jr singled out Anderson as one of the under-30 guitarists you should be watching. Rick Jamm of JamSphere described his guitar playing as “crackerjack sharp”.
Check out the official music video for the album’s first single HERE.
Trouble is due Oct. 21.
There ya have it – another Tuesday, another nice selection of new tracks in which to divulge. Thanks as usual to Rockin’ Rudy’s for sponsoring New Tracks on the Trail!

Spotlight on SheSpeaks Blogger - Lisa Blanco of Try This!
Lisa Blanco has three children ages 7, 8, & 10. She's the Children's Church leader and she spends a lot of time volunteering at her kids school helping out the teachers. Three years ago, she was diagnosed with heart disease and now she's living with an ICD/pacemaker inside. When not busy with kids, she is writing on her blog Try This!
Lisa is an active member of our community and most recently worked on the L'Oreal Magic Cream campaign.
We wanted to learn more about her so sat down to find our more, and here is what we discovered.
My niche is…Parenting, Kids products.
I write when…..My kids are in school. Summer is usually slow for me on the blog.
How has blogging changed my life: It gives me something to do. It helps me to feel like I am helping other families by sharing what works and what doesn’t so they waste their money. I am a quiet person so this also gives me an outlet to reach a lot of people without actually talking in a large group.
A brand I have loved working with: I love working with Boogie Wipes. It is a great product that was invented by a mom.
When did I start blogging: 2010, and when I look back at my first post I laugh at how far I have come with content and posting.
How I see the future of blogging/social media: I think it is going to continue growing. Everyone wants to be heard and blogging is a great way to share.
Where I work: I do most my blogging sitting on the couch watching TV.
I am connected….A lot, though, I try to do anything technology based while the kids are in school so that when they are home my focus is on them. They are little for only so long and I don’t want their memory of their childhood with mom on the computer.
When I’m stressed, I…..Walk and pray.
My favorite gadget is….My camera. I love taking my camera everywhere, you never know when the moment will come that you want to take a picture.
My favorite travel destination is….That’s tough. Living in Florida I love the beach scene but would love to see the mountains when its snowing.
I do all my shopping….Target! I love Target!
My favorite movie: All time favorite is Annie, (the original version) but Couples Retreat is a hilarious movie!
I dream about….The future. I want my kids to have a great future.
What else I do: I am a children’s church leader and I love teaching the children about God.

Java might be the grandaddy of them all, but there are new kids on the block. Let's see what makes Scala and Kotlin great, frustrating, and how they compare to Java.
Since the arrival and maturity of Kotlin, JVM-based languages face quite a challenge, most particularly Scala. You must have heard a lot about Kotlin by now, especially the perks and treats it brings to the Java table. But then there is Scala, a powerful and concise Java alternative. Scala vs Kotlin? Which one is better? Or maybe it's Kotlin vs. Java or Java vs. Scala?
Scala and Kotlin aim to better Java in their own different ways.
To those of you planning to shift from Java to either Kotlin or Scala (can't imagine it the other way around), I am going to paint a "what's what" scenario so you can decide better for yourself.
Let's look at Kotlin first.
Kotlin was developed by JetBrains and reached the market in Feb. 2012 as an open source language. Up until now, Kotlin has had two released versions, with Kotlin 1.2 being the most stable version, released Nov. 28, 2017.
The language grew in popularity on Android because of its perfect compatibility with Java 6, which is mainly the present version of Java on Android. Not just that, Kotlin offers some features that are only in Java 8, and are thus not available to Android developers on Java 6.
In the closet full of 'All that is good about Kotlin,' the two most prominent qualities of Kotlin entail seamless and flawless interoperability with Java. You can call Java code from Kotlin and vice versa without any hiccups or frowns, not to mention the in-built null safety feature. Not seeing a NullPointerException is every Android programmer’s dream.
Android app development is completely transformed into a blissful, non-NPE experience. If you want some detail as to how the null safety works, check it out here.
That is also one of the 'why's' for Google adopting Kotlin on Android as an officially supported language.
Apart from that, take a look at some of the strengths Kotlin has to offer.
Any Java competitor has to be an FP language. Kotlin lacks a little on the higher-kinded types and type safety, but nonetheless, it offers all the features of an OOP style language with an FP approach.
This is my favorite part. Java is great, but the boilerplate code it makes you write is just frustrating and error-prone. Coding in Kotlin is very short, concise, and to the point. Get the job done with fewer lines of code than in Java. The less you have to write, the less often you make errors and expose yourself to bugs. Everyone knows that, right?
One way Kotlin reduces the amount of code is by limiting the use of findViewById.
Kotlin allows views to be accessed from the layout XML, just like you would properties. Instead of using findViewById every time, all you have to do is follow this example.
Although Kotlin is a younger language than Scala, it has the support of two great companies: the formidable Google and the amazing JetBrains, who are responsible for many other IDEs, including the IntelliJ IDE for Android. So there is no doubt about great tooling support there. To all the people who thought of Kotlin as some trend, you could not be more wrong.
Kotlin is already on Android and it is definitely here to stay, grow, and evolve.
But with strength comes some weakness as well.
Pattern matching is not strong in Kotlin. It doesn’t fully support it.
...that would be a no. But it's no frowner. You can still do a pretty fine pattern matching job by intelligently using the when clause. But we all know that intelligence takes a little more effort and skills than your average Joe.
If your applications are already long, then the extra runtime size of 800KB could be a problem for you. You might experience a dwindling number of downloads because of the bigger size of an application.
Nothing is ever all good. With the concise approach Kotlin offers, there is a little problem. With so much going on in so little code, it becomes a little hard to read and understand at first. It might even feel overwhelming to a beginner.
Although Google has joined hands with JetBrains to offer support for Kotlin, it is pivotal to know that Google does not endorse it. Even when you use Kotlin in Android, the autocorrect occurs slower than it does for Java.
As I already mentioned, Kotlin is younger than Scala and, needless to say, Java.
Since Kotlin is younger than Scala, it has fewer libraries, blog posts, and tutorials.
The online support community is quite small. The lack of blog posts, tutorials, and user documentation might become a problem for you, but as trends suggest, this might be filled up soon as more and more people and companies are adopting Kotlin.
Before you make up your mind, let's hop over to Scala.
Scala surfaced to the general public in the year 2004. Developed by Martin Odersky, Scala was released on the Java platform as a general-purpose programming language. The name Scala is not some whimsical notion, it is an abbreviation of "scalable": a language that is scalable according to the needs of its users.
Being released in 2004 sure gave Scala the advantage of maturing more over time and taking the spotlight from Kotlin.
Scala has some common features with Kotlin like conciseness of code, higher-order functions, FP functionality with an OOP style, and interoperability with Java (though not as good as Kotlin). Other than that, here is what Scala is about.
Pattern matching in Scala is no joke. Scala uses the match statement for this purpose, which is a powerful version of Java's switch statement. It allows you to match on any type of data, lists, and even your own types. If you haven't already tried it, I suggest you play around with it a little.
Scala is a little complex, but it has a very flexible code syntax. The proficient use of functional programming features makes the code extensible and hierarchical to the very best level.
Scala has been here for more than a decade. Since it is a powerful Java alternative, it has huge support community. We're talking about YouTube tutorials, blog posts, forums, and let's not forget the official support and user documentation. Anything you find yourself struggling with, you can pretty much find the answer to it.
Scala does not restrict you from overloading operators. You can play with operator-looking functions and define limitlessly. But you need to be careful with this feature. Still, if you can do this right, your code readability will increase. If not, you might end up making your code difficult to understand.
Everything is about speed in the world of coding. A slow program is a big turn-off. When it comes to industry-grade projects, Scala's compile time turns into minutes as compared to Kotlin, which tries to compile as fast as Java, which is in seconds.
Scala is not binary compatible with a few versions. Let's say you compiled with Scala 2.1. The same will not compile with Scala 2.11.
That could be nothing, or it could be your biggest nightmare if you have to work across different versions and update them. Especially if you have production-scale projects.
Scala attempts a good take on managing null safety, but it's just not as effective. The Scala equivalent for null safety is the Option keyword. Using this, there is a considerable chance you might get an NPE at the back door.
Scala and Kotlin are in quite a tug of war. Scala has the edge over Kotlin in some ways, but Kotlin is just as formidable in others. The main differences — where the two languages set themselves apart — is that Kotlin is more like a better version of Java, while Scala is an entirely different kind of Java, so to speak.
While Scala has a bit of a learning curve, it offers unparalleled support for advanced functional programming. Kotlin, on the other hand, is super easy to learn and fun to code in.
But does that mean something is wrong with Java? I mean why change from Java in the first place?
Java is old. Really old. Like, great-grandpa old. And while popular, its popularity actually works against it. Java use is everywhere, which makes it impossible for teams using Java to change their fundamentals, even knowing that Java is facing a lot of technical criticism as well.
No matter the greatness, Java has too much redundancy and lengthy boilerplate code. Kotlin and Scala just happen to be better at what Java was intended for.
Choosing the language primarily depends on the use you need it for. Scala is a good fit for projects with a need for a mix of functional and OOP style programming languages. For places where you need to handle large amounts of data or complex modeling reliant on mathematics, Scala would be best.
However, if you just wanted Java to be less frustrating — but still be Java — then there is nothing better than Kotlin out there. Using Kotlin for Android app development will be the best thing that ever happened to you. Kotlin is like a Java cousin with better looks and who doesn’t talk gibberish. So choose wisely and may the code-Force be with you.

A statement by its Director of Communications, Rev Fr Moses Lorapuu, said that the attacks were perpetrated by herdsmen who stormed the Mbalom community, killed parishioners during the morning mass at the church.
Presently the church is in search of some of their prominent businessmen and missionaries who are the major sponsors of activities in the church, allegedly on the death roll of the invading herdsmen.
We gathered that Victor Nwankwo, Silvester Okowa and three others were suspected to be targeted at, during the early morning bloodbath by Fulani herdsmen. These men according to reports are the major benefactors of the Catholic Church development in Benue state. They herdsmen allegedly claim that Victor Nwankwo and his four colleagues was amongst the missionaries that converted hundreds of Muslims to Christians.
According to investigations, Victor Nwankwo and his fellow missionaries are yet to be found as they have become a search agenda in the list of Africa’s most dreaded insurgent group.
The Diocese expressed regret at the nonchalant attitude of the security agencies in containing the killings. It said the herdsmen, who stormed the community, burnt down houses, destroyed crops and killed people. The church, therefore, urged the relevant authorities to stop the killings in the Benue valley.
Rev.Lorapuu said the Diocese had been active in providing food and relief materials to Internally Displaced Persons (IDP’s) since the onset of hostilities in the state and wondered why it could be marked as a target of attacks. “The attack on the priests is an attack on everything that we ever stood for and believed in,” says Lorapuu. Meanwhile, concerted efforts to get reaction from the Benue Police Command failed as its Public Relations Officer, ASP Moses Yamu, was not forthcoming with remarks. Rev. Fr. Gor had before the attack written on Facebook; “Living in fear. The fulani herdsmen are still around us in Mbalom. They refuse to go. They still go grazing around us. No weapons to defend ourselves”. Herdsmen in the early hours of the morning attacked a Catholic Church and parishioners who went for 5.30 a.m. mass. Reports say the bodies of the dead have been taken to St. Theresa’s Hospital Makurdi.

There's so much to recommend your current amour: kindness, generosity of spirit, integrity, honesty. You may have been hearing from loved ones that you really made a catch this time: Here is someone who can go the distance with you. Here is someone who deserves your love.
So why do you find yourself restive and bored? It feels as though the very qualities that first attracted you to your mate are turning you off, pushing you away. You see arrogance where you once saw confidence, hardheadedness where you once saw drive. Pity your poor lover: It's you who has changed and is demanding something your lover can't give. You gotta figure out your priorities. Where do you want to be in ten years? What are the steps you have to take in order to get there? And where does your mate fit into the picture? If there's no future between you, do the kind thing and cut your lover loose. But if there is, let your lover in on your dreams and ambitions. You could build so much together if you're just willing to work a little harder.

Teaching Creation Thursday ~ Make a Fossilized Footprint!
This is taken from a lesson in the Investigating the Possibilities series by Master Books that will be on the market soon. It is in the Water and Weather book by Tom DeRosa and Carolyn Reeves.
A fun activity to teach students more about how footprints, casts, and molds formed during the Great Flood.
Smooth out about ½ to ¾ cup of playdough in a large paper plate. Use a roller or PVC pipe to roll over the clay until it covers the bottom of the plate. Now turn the clay over so the smooth side is up.
Recruit a volunteer with a fairly small foot. Rub the student’s foot with petroleum jelly. The student should carefully press his foot into the clay as if walking, and then clean the petroleum jelly and clay off his foot.
Take some more clay (about ½ to ¾ cup) and roll it into a tube or “snake” that is about an inch in diameter and long enough to go around the clay in the paper plate. Place the tube around the edge of the clay and press it into the bottom piece of clay to make a seal. Squeeze and flatten the tube to make a wall around the footprint impression to make a bowl that can hold the liquid plaster.
Now measure out 2 cups of Plaster of Paris into a disposable container. Measure 1 cup of water, and pour it slowly into the plaster, stirring and mixing continually. If the mixture is still dry, add more water a little at a time until it is like pudding. When mixed well, pour about half the plaster over the impression in the clay. Lift your plate with two hands a few cm high and let it plop down on the table. Do this a few more times. This will spread the plaster and bring air bubbles up to the surface.
Allow the plaster to harden. It should harden in an hour or more. After it has hardened, carefully remove the plaster from the clay and observe the impression of the footprint. Look at the clay as well as the plaster.
1. Describe the impression in the clay.
2. Describe how the bottom of the Plaster of Paris looks.
While your plaster is still wet, put some of it in a small meat tray. Rub the leaf with petroleum jelly. Quickly, but gently, place a leaf on top of the plaster and cover with plastic wrap. Use a block to gently press the leaf into the plaster. (Do not push down to bottom of the tray.) After it has thoroughly hardened, remove the leaf. Compare the leaf to the leaf mold.
Not all fossils are remains of once-living plants and animals. Trace fossils are fossils where nothing is left except a footprint or an impression of where the organisms had been. The impression of the footprint in the clay represents this kind of fossil.
Some fossils have been made by something like a stem with flowers, or leaves, or maybe a shell that left their impression in wet sediment. If something is pressed into wet sediment and becomes a fossil, the impression left behind is called a mold. If part of the actual organism gets trapped in the sediment or a new layer of sediment fills in the mold and hardens, that is known as the cast.
The vast majority of fossils are organisms without a backbone that once lived in an ocean. These include trilobites, crinoids, ammonites, and corals. Within this group, the most commonly found fossils are casts and molds of animals with hard shells, such as clams and brachiopods.
You might think that a few footprints wouldn’t leave much information, but it actually tells paleontologists a lot more than you would think--things like the kind of animal that made the print, how heavy it was, if it was limping, or if it was running or walking.
The animal’s weight can be estimated by comparing the depth of the footprint made with other footprints. The more the animal weighs the deeper the print. A lighter-weight animal will make a more shallow print. The distance between footprints is another important clue as to how large the animal was. Large animals take bigger steps than smaller animals.
Paleontologists can often make a positive identification of an animal based just on the footprint. Sometimes a footprint cannot be positively identified, but can still be put into a category of the type of animal. Dinosaurs, for example, might be classified as theropods (certain dinosaurs that stand on 2 feet) or sauropods (large dinosaurs that stand on 4 feet).
Footprints are only preserved under special conditions that occur before the prints can be eroded or washed away. Because these conditions must occur quickly after the prints have been made, it’s surprising that actually billions of footprints have been preserved in rocks.
Grand Canyon were laid down rapidly as a result of a catastrophic worldwide flood.
water, but often preferred to walk across the bottom of a tank of water in sand.
have been produced underwater rather than in desert conditions.
This is a part of a lesson about on how fossil footprints and other molds and casts can form. These kinds of fossils are very common, but they only form in rocks under rare conditions. The conditions that were present during and after the Genesis Flood would have been just right for forming fossils. Unless the prints were quickly covered up by new layers of sediment, they would have been washed away or eroded. The Flood would have provided many other ideal conditions for forming fossils.
