"Recent studies on fossils found at the Dmanisi archaeological site in the Republic of Georgia are changing the way scientists have understood the initial migration out of Africa by humans. For decades, the commonly accepted theory about the earliest migration out of Africa was that one species of human, Homo erectus, migrated out of Africa approximately 1.8 million years ago. But the new study, which was published in PLOS ONE, now indicates that this pivotal migration could have involved more than one human species."

....and these pudgy, bespectacled virgins just figured this out? Or they just finally decided to admit it?

"If confirmed, these findings would have major significance for human evolutionary history. Rather than one linear spread of humans from Africa led by Homo erectus, early migrations out of Africa could have involved several human species adapting in their own way to their new environments. This suggests that early human history could have been much more complex than was ever thought."

...oh gee...what a revelation.

I can't believe what a big deal they are making of this weather. It's a non-event. It's winter.

I hope it’s bad. Cataclysm breaks up the monotony of winter.

Jesus. The “protesters” are a cross section of mentally unstable losers. It’s comical. They’re all the same.

This is a good example of how righties think. --"It doesn't directly effect me so why is it an issue?.."

Unless, of course, it is something that doesn't effect them but fox has told them to be upset about it.

We are looking at frigid temps and a storm that will span some 2000 miles across the country, much of it in areas that seldom get this kind of weather. Where people. homes, infrastructure, and services are just not built/ready for it but hey, it's no big deal.

Damn it’s clear. But it’s too cold to use a telescope. I should have bought a couple lens heaters

Interesting statistic:

The U.S. has the third-highest murder rate. If you remove Chicago, Detroit, Washington, D.C., St. Louis, and Philadelphia, it would rank 189th out of 193 countries.

Gee...I wonder why?

I live in the Switzerland part of town...ain't no crime here !
