Did you know that other than us, there were 6 known (extinct) Hominina (human-like) species that once existed and perhaps co-existed with one another on Earth? We are the only known Hominina species to have luckily survived so far.

According to a CNN.com article, NASA has joined in the search to seek the elusive ivory-billed woodpecker. So, do you think NASA will be successful in finding the 'long-thought-to-be-extinct' bird?

I got reading this article in Popular Science the other day, and I'm curious what people think. It talks about mysterious particles that fell to earth from space that might be extraterrestrial in origin:

it seems there is little hope of surviving on this planet in the long term.
We are a primitive species(witness our behaviour at soccer matches, or our wars in the name of religion) hell bent on destruction. Our existence seems pointless - there is no grand scheme of things so doing something for the ""greater good" is a waste of time.

I hope this doesnt sound weird. Do animals suffer from similar illnesses like humans do? I mean have you ever heard of a dog or cat with Down syndrome?
An elephant with Tourettes?
Hows about a schizophrenic Iguana?

Just cos they dont speak in our language, does that mean they all have normal IQ's like us so to speak?

Any one not beleiving in Astrology should know....
Check your past big events of your life.... & then ask someone who know astrology.. I know not everyone can predict exactly... but there r so many who will tell u the Date & time also....

Knowing these why not still ppl take help of Astrology in deciding their career rather than going wild for IT, Doc, Eng... or like that...

Why????
