MIDDLEBURY — A baby raccoon found in Middlebury acting strangely Monday tested positive for rabies.
Dr. Tracy Winters said a pet owner found the clearly sick animal near Route 7 and brought it to Middlebury Animal Hospital, where it was humanely euthanized and sent to state labs for testing. On Wednesday, tests showed that the animal did suffer from rabies.
VERGENNES — Civic organizations make a big impact in the Little City, where five secular nonprofit clubs collectively have an annual membership of more than 1,300 and make annual charitable donations of almost $150,000.
According to Vergennes Mayor Michael Daniels, the Addison County Eagles, American Legion Post 14, the Vergennes Lions Club, the city's Masonic Lodge, and the Vergennes Rotary club do more than donate money to charity. Daniels said they are integral parts of the city's fabric.

VERGENNES –– Fourteen-year-old Damian Bougor knew the Vergennes skate park needed seating and decided to do something about it.
"I go there every day and we just needed something to sit on after we're done skating, so I figured we needed a bench," he said.
His friend Ian Shalek took the idea further and suggested a bench made out of skateboards.

NEW HAVEN — Addison County Fair and Field Days drew to a close on Aug. 11 following another run that officials called a success in spite of some rain that drenched the site during portions of three days of the annual event's five-day span.
Jim Foster, president of the Field Days board, estimated attendance at this year's 64th annual Field Days was around 15 percent lower than last year's edition. During a good year (like last year), Field Days draws between 25,000 to 30,000 visits, according to Foster.
MONKTON — The Monkton Development Review Board (DRB) is nearing a decision on whether to permit a contentious application for a 30-plus acre quarry off of Monkton Road.
According to the application filed by Brisson Stone LLC and David Shlansky's Burchfield Management Company LLC, "Brisson Stone will rely on drilling and blasting rock ledge to produce unconsolidated rock and gravel that will be collected on-site." Burchfield Management filed the application, and the two enterprises are working together on this project.
VERGENNES — Vergennes Farmers' Market board members said the combination of a recruiting effort, a switch from Mondays to Thursdays and a little bit of momentum helped triple the number of vendors at the market in the past two years.

Students from other departments are welcome to minor in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures as part of their doctoral program. To do so, they are required to take at least 12 credit hours of graduate-level course work, to be approved by the Director of Graduate Studies so as to form a coherent program. Students must maintain a 3.0 grade point average for the minor as a whole. Up to 12 credit hours may be transferred from other institutions toward the NELC outside Ph.D. minor, but at least 6 credit hours must be completed in the IU NELC department.
Termination of Enrollment in the Doctoral Program
If a doctoral student fails the written qualifying examinations twice, fails the oral qualifying exam twice, falls below a 3.5 average, or fails to complete the written and oral examinations by the end of the approved length of time, the director of graduate studies, in consultation with the research committee, can initiate steps to terminate the student's enrollment in the program.

Attorney Boies Discusses Prop 8 options
The excitement of the presidential election is passed; it is time for Washington, D.C. to get back to work. At the top of the schedule is a conference of the Supreme Court justices on November 30, where they will discuss whether to take cases involving the Defense of Marriage Act and the federal challenge to Proposition 8.
The justices had indicated they would consider the marriage cases next week, but on Tuesday said that they would be on the conference schedule at the end of the month.
Representing two same-sex couples challenging Prop 8, along with Theodore Olson, is attorney David Boies, who was awarded the Public Interest Excellence Award by the University of San Francisco's School of Law on November 9.
Before the event, Boies sat down with the Bay Area Reporter to discuss what he expects from the nation's highest court at the end of the month.
In regards to Prop 8, the justices will make one of three decisions. They could "deny cert," as Boies said, which would allow the ruling by the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals striking down Prop 8 to go in to effect. If that happens, same-sex couples in California could once again legally wed.
The justices could also decide to hear the case, which would require Boies and Olson to submot written briefs and present oral arguments, most likely in April. If the Supreme Court decides to hear the case, as Boies said, they could essentially "decide this issue once and for all. So that, not only could people get married in California, they could get married in Alabama," and everywhere else in the country. A final decision would be expected in June 2013.
However, the court could also decide to "in effect, just hold the petition in our case, not make a decision one way or another," which would leave Boies's clients, and same-sex couples in the state, in limbo, not knowing if or when they will be able to legally marry.
The Supreme Court conference comes at the end of a month full of big gains for supporters of marriage equality. On election night, November 6, Maine, Maryland, and Washington state all passed ballot measures supporting legal unions for gay and lesbian couples. Couples can begin marrying in Washington next month; Maine and Maryland will follow in January.
Those states join Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, and Washington, D.C. in allowing same-sex marriage.
In Minnesota last week, voters rejected a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage, although it is still not legal to marry in the North Star State.
Boies was asked if this year's election results would have any effect on the Supreme Court's decision.
"I think it could have an effect," Boise said, "because I think the court does look to whether its decisions will be accepted.
"The reason you need a Supreme Court and a written Constitution is to deal with the situations in which the majority, of any particular point in time, takes action that is inconsistent with fundamental rights. At that point, the court is always, to some extent, on the side of the minority," he added.
The last time the Supreme Court made a major decision on the definition of marriage was in 1967, in Loving v. Virginia , when it ruled Virginia's Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which prohibited interracial marriage, to be unconstitutional.
At the time, Boies said, "64 percent of the American people believed interracial marriages were wrong."
In recent years, public support for marriage equality has increased. In May 2011, Gallup published a report stating that for the first time ever, a majority of Americans, 53 percent, were in favor of allowing gays and lesbians to marry.
According to an article published by Reuters the day of Boies's visit to San Francisco, "legal analysis that applies to equal protection challenges, laws that discriminate against politically powerless groups receive greater scrutiny from the court."
Some opponents to marriage equality have said that the votes in states that extended marriage rights on election night may prove that gays and lesbians are no longer an oppressed, politically powerless minority, and therefore no longer need protection from the Supreme Court.
Boies laughed when he heard that argument.
"I mean it really is delusional. There is not a better way to describe it," he said.
He added that the whole point of having the court system and having the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868, "is to make sure that individual states can't act to deprive their citizens equal protection of the laws, no matter how many people in that state want to do that."
But Boies is hopeful. He thinks the country is at the start of "an era in which you are seeing a new trend toward greater and greater equality, greater and greater social integration, a recognition that we are long passed the time when we should have fulfilled the promise of the Constitution, of the Deceleration of Independence."

Make your kitchen smell outright divine with this Tuscan-based slow roasted tomato bread soup, Pappa al Pomodoro. Home-grown tomatoes, in-season, peasant cooking (using stale bread)- a perfect example of Slow Food. Our tomato plants are thriving in this long warm summer in Italy, the colors deepening & the flavors intensifying as the days go by. Originating in Tuscany (about an hour away) we can't resist sharing this mouthwatering recipe at our farmhouse using our plump andjuicy homegrown piccadilly & cherry tomatoes!
(I've posted this recipe before, but since today we started jarring the first batch of jarred/canned tomatoes it was only fitting to post a delicious tomato recipe & this is what's cooking for dinner & one of my absolute favs!!)
Serves 4
1/2 kilo of ripe cherry tomatoes
few cloves of garlic, peeled & sliced
large bunch of basil, set aside soft stems for later (chopped)
good extra virgin olive oil
salt & pepper
2 medium cans of good quality tomatoes
2 big handfuls of good stale bread, crusts removed
olive oil for cooking
Preheat oven to 375 F / 190 C
Toss cherry tomatoes with oil, 1 clove of garlic chopped, 1/3 of your basil, salt & pepper. Place on a cookie/baking sheet. Place in oven for 20 minutes or until the tomatoes burst open.
In a heavy bottomed pot, heat a couple glugs of olive oil SLOWLY cooking your garlic & basil until soft for a couple minutes. Turn up heat, add tomatoes & 1 can of water. Break up tomatoes with back of a wooden spoon. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Tear bread into bite size pieces, mixing well.
Season with salt & pepper.
Turn down heat, cooking for another 10 minutes.
When cherry tomatoes are done cooking add them to the soup. Make sure to scrap all the good, caramelized juicy bits from your pan into the soup.
Stir & taste check. You are looking for a thick soup. If it is too dry, adjust with water. When you are happy with the consistency remove from heat. Stir in 7-8 tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil and torn basil leaves.
Serve warm or hot.

Enter through the Grand entrance of the V&A and look up. Here you are greeted by the 28.280 custom-made chandelier by Canada-based designer Omer Arbel. Hung from the Cupola, the highest point of the building, the installation spans the vast height of the Museum, cascading more than 30 metres through the centre of the Ceramics Galleries, past the coffered ceiling beneath and finally appearing above the main doorway as visitors enter the museum.
The installation is made up of 280 individual 28 Series glass pendant lamps, each of which is handmade at design brand Bocci's glass factory in Canada using a fabrication process developed by Arbel. He explains, "28 Series is an exploration of a fabrication process which is part of our quest for specificity. Instead of designing form itself, here the intent was to design a system that haphazardly yields form, almost as a byproduct. '28' pendants result from a complex glass blowing technique whereby air pressure is intermittently introduced into and then removed from a glass matrix which is intermittently heated and then rapidly cooled.
The result is a distorted spherical shape with a composed collection of inner shapes, one of which is made of opaque milk glass and houses a light source."

Bruce Willis is a notoriously tough— or cranky — interview subject.
But the 58-year-old actor took things to a whole new level recently when being interviewed by perky reporter Jamie Edwards from Britain's "Magic at the Movies" during a press junket for his latest film, "Red 2."
Despite Edwards' best efforts to engage Willis, the actor did nothing to hide his boredom throughout the five-minute banter.
"We're just selling the film now," Willis says straight off the bat, "the fun part was making the movie."
When the interviewer asks Willis about a car chase scene in the film, he responds: "I'm thinking about driving right now. I can hardly keep my mind on this interview. I'm thinking about driving somewhere."
At the end of the interview, Willis tells the reporter sarcastically, "you have some great questions here Jamie," before adding: "Great chat."
Despite Willis' rude responses, his co-star and and interview partner, actress Mary-Louise Parker, says the actor was always "very chivalrous" on set, bringing her coffee, blankets if she was cold and making sure she was always taken care of.
Willis didn't give the interviewer the same treatment. Watch the cringe-worthy interview below:

The 2014-2015 season of The REP, Point Park University's professional theatre company, will include two world premieres by Pittsburgh playwrights, a classic by Nobel laureate John Steinbeck and a hilarious comedy about an American singer renowned for her lack of rhythm, tone and especially an ability to sing.

The REP's remaining productions in the season will be two world premieres of works by Pittsburgh playwrights — alumna Gaby Cody's riotous farce, Prussia: 1866, directed by Kim Martin, director of production and stage management at the Playhouse, and Anthony McKay's stirring family drama, Endless Lawns, directed by Greg Lehane.

Sharp, Versteeg lead Blackhawks past Sharks 5-1NHL.com @NHLdotcom
CHICAGO - Patrick Sharp scored two goals, including one on a third-period penalty shot, and Kris Versteeg had a goal and an assist to lead the Chicago Blackhawks to a 5-1 win over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday night.
Jonathan Toews and rookie Brandon Pirri also scored for the Blackhawks, who rebounded with a tidy defensive effort following a 7-2 loss in Nashville on Saturday, their most lopsided this season.
Joe Pavelski connected for San Jose in a matchup of two of the Western Conference's top teams.
Versteeg scored his first goal with the Blackhawks since being reacquired in trade from Florida on Thursday. He was a member of Chicago's 2010 Stanley Cup-winning team.

Photos and reflections from 260 miles down the Yukon River. 10 sunny days and 1 day of rain. Temps reached into the 80s, forest fires built on the horizon and an orange haze filled the river valley and on our only rainy day the rainwater tasted like smoke. Our camps ranged from classic Yukon river wooded camps where travelers have beat down dirt platforms near old log cabins, to large open islands with cobblestone beaches and back channels of stagnant warm water and mud that invited children to shed clothes and bathe.

These photos are from two trips a year apart, however given the proximity of the peaks I feel it makes sense to present both peaks together. Yvonne and I climbed Organ in July 2016 (on our 10th wedding anniversary!) and I climbed Synthesizer with Todd Kelsey in July 2017. ( Read more... )
The Watchman is one of those peaks that hides in plain sight. Even though the peak is 6410', its proximity of other large peaks causes it to be easily overlooked. From afar it looks like little more than a sub-peak of Benign, even through technically it's a peak (as in there is 500' of prominence separating the summit from the actual summit of Benign), and lies over a mile from the true summit of Benign. That said, with neighbors like Benign, Bellicose, Bashful and the Mitre it's easy to understand why it's often overlooked. ( Read more... )

A spectacular peak from all directions, Rook Mountain lies North and 2000' above Raven Glacier. There is no easy route to the summit which makes it a worthy objective that you must plan for in terms of weather, conditions and route.

I've been here over 20 years but I had never taken the time to walk from the South Fork Eagle River to Glen Alps. This September I packed an overnight bag and trekked to Glen Alps via a route past Concerto / Tailfeater / The Sail / Ship Pass.

This is a photo dump from a recent trip down Desolation and Gray Canyons on the Green River. 10 of us flew down from Anchorage and spent a week on the river. We had 6 adults and 4 kids ages 3-6. We crowded into 2 16' rafts and brought a packraft as an extra boat. We had perfect weather (7 days of 70 degree sun) and low flows (3000cfs) which meant the majority of the rapids were mere ripples (but also meant that travel was slow). It was the perfect October escape from Anchorage which can be dreary before the snow arrives. ( Read more... )
For the 4th of July we packed up the kids, rafts and dogs and headed north to Talkeetna to float the Susitna River from Gold Creek to Talkeetna. This stretch of river is 40 miles of mellow class I with nice gravel bars and islands for camping and an easy take out that's within 1 mile of where you leave your vehicle. The best part? You approach by train. And not just any train - but the last true flag-stop train in America. ( Read more... )

The plan calls for tearing down two buildings on the historic Canandaigua VA campus.
A public meeting at 6 p.m. at the Canandaigua VA Medical Center will address the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' proposal for renovation, construction and demolition on the campus at 400 Fort Hill Ave.
The project would demolish Buildings 33 and 34; remodel existing Building 9 into a new 50-bed Domiciliary; construct a new Community Living Center consisting of 10, one-story detached cottages and a Community Center interconnected by enclosed walkways; reconnect and/or reconstruct other enclosed walkways; construct a new Outpatient Clinic created by infill and renovate three historic buildings (Buildings 1, 3, and 4); modernize and improve outdated utilities and circulation to improve safety and upgrade service; and make other improvements.
The meeting from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in Building 5 Auditorium will give the public a chance to comment on the proposal's Draft Environmental Assessment. The project is subject to review of the National Historic Preservation Act.
The VA has developed a draft Memorandum Agreement (MOA) that the Canandaigua VA director, the state historical preservation officer and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation intend to sign.
VA intends to issue a "Finding of No Significant Impact" following a 30-day comment period in accordance with the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations providing there are no substantive comments which warrant further evaluation, according to a legal notice.
The public is encouraged to provide hard copies of oral presentations.
The project with an estimated cost of $370 million is the result of a major reconstruction overhaul for the Canandaigua campus announced in 2007.
For more information or to obtain copies of the documents pertaining to the project, contact Dan Ryan, public affairs specialist at the Canandaigua VA Medical Center, 400 Fort Hill Ave., Canandaigua, NY 14424; email@example.com; (585) 393-7209; www.canandaigua.va.gov

Over the weekend, there was a report out of Tampa that the Buccaneers and wide receiver Mike Williams were talking about a contract extension without making any tangible progress.
The last couple of days must have been particularly fruitful because Williams has landed his extension. The Buccaneers announced the deal on Wednesday morning. The Bucs announced it as a six-year deal running through 2018, but it extends Williams' stay in Tampa for five years since he has a year left on his old deal.
The Bucs also made the unusual step of announcing the terms. It's $40.25 million over six years for Williams, but we'll have to wait on details involving guarantees and the like.
"We are pleased to have Mike signed to a long-term contract that ensures he will continue to be part of the exciting young core of players we are building around," Buccaneers General Manager Mark Dominik said in a release. "Mike has earned this contract through his hard work and production the past three seasons and we are looking forward to seeing him continue that career development as a Buccaneer."
Whatever the specifics, the key is that the Bucs have wrapped up a key offensive piece ahead of camp so that Williams can concentrate on football first and foremost all season. That's good news for quarterback Josh Freeman as he makes the case for an extension that has him throwing passes to Williams well beyond the 2013 season.

Northeast Yosemite is one of my favorite places in the Sierra Nevada. The peaks are not as high as the Southern Sierra, but it's a distinctly alpine region characterized by a series of long glacier-carved canyons separated by sharp granitic peaks and ridgelines. The numerous canyons (from east to west) include Virginia Canyon, Spiller Canyon, Matterhorn Canyon, Slide Canyon, Rock Canyon, Kerrick Canyon, Thompson Canyon, Stubblefield Canyon, Tilden Canyon and Jack Main Canyon (see annotated satellite image of the canyons). All of the canyons flow into the Tuolumne River watershed and provide virtually limitless opportunities for exploration, and several of the canyons are completely trail-less canyons. The entire region offers some of the best wilderness terrain to wander off the beaten path in solitude. On this day I was looking for a relatively quick afternoon warm-up (post drive from the Bay Area) before my trip to Arrow Peak's northeast ridge so I decided to do Virginia Peak, a striking peak that rises between the deeply-carved Spiller Canyon and Virginia Canyon. From the summit of Virginia Peak there is a magnificent view in all directions, including the impressively steep Whorl Mountain across picturesque Spiller Canyon, Matterhorn Peak at the head of the canyon, Mount Conness and Shepherd Crest to the south, and the Roof of Yosemite including Mount Lyell, Mount Maclure and Mount Florence.
The shortest and likely quickest access to Virginia Peak is via the Green Lake Trailhead, but I decided to access via Virginia Lakes, a pretty chain of alpine lakes I had never seen with trailhead access that is almost all on paved road (the Green Lake TH is a long dirt road). Moreover, the Virginia Lakes TH starts a bit higher. The downside is the approach builds in an extra climb over a saddle that is over 11,000 ft resulting in a decent climb on the way back. On balance, the extra distance to the peak seemed worthwhile. I used maintained paths to below Summit Lake and then set off cross-country traversing across the lowest slopes of Camiaca Peak to Upper Virginia Canyon. A trail once existed in upper Virginia Canyon but I could only find bits and pieces of it in the meadows. Either way, travel is easy in the canyon and the main objective is to avoid brush patches that tend to grow near the watercourse. At the highest reaches of Virginia Canyon a headwall is reached with a waterfall. Apparently an easy route exists to bypass the waterfall and continue along the main drainage, but I found a nice gully to the right that provided an easy "staircase" up to the granite benches and talus fields below Virginia Peak and Twin Peaks Pass. The final ascent to the pass entailed some loose rock, but I was soon traversing over to the start of the scramble. The final scramble up Virginia Peak's northeast ridge is short and mostly class 2 with a couple class 3 moves. The view from the top is awesome and I soaked in the scenery for nearly an hour before returning to the Virginia Lakes TH with plenty of time to drive south for the next day's adventure.

From the 85m high tower of Munich's town hall you have a great view over the city centre. When you're lucky you can even see the Bavarian alps in the distance. The tower can easily be ascend via elevator.
Munich is the capital of the German state of Bavaria and is Germany's third largest city, located on the River Isar north of the Bavarian Alps. Black and gold - the colors of the Holy Roman Empire - have been the city's official colors since the time of Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor.

It's not usually a good sign when philanthropic groups step in to boost a region's economic fortunes. The strategy is typically associated with aging Rust Belt towns, not healthy regions like the Twin Cities.
So next year's launch of Accelerate MSP, a nonprofit that plans to help fund start-up businesses, is at first glance at least a little troubling.
A nonprofit deeply involved in sparking innovation in older industrial cities has done much of the legwork for Accelerate MSP, including seeking a Ford Foundation grant. The group, JumpStart Inc., has expanded to other regions from its home base in Cleveland, with projects for the areas around Gary, Ind.; Baton Rouge, La.; Akron, Ohio; St. Louis; and Detroit.
Of course, it's also not usually a good sign to read your hometown's name on any economic-related list along with Detroit's.
On the other hand, there's no room for smug complacency. And more capital is clearly better than less. So if the likes of the Ford Foundation have funds available, take the money. And hurry.
"Those communities have done this reactively," said Ernest Grumbles, an attorney with the firm of Adams Monahan in Minneapolis and one of six founding board members of Accelerate MSP. "We are trying to do it proactively."
Grumbles uses professional baseball as a metaphor, that unlike Detroit, our big-league team is doing well. Companies like Medtronic and General Mills are sluggers in their prime.
What's needed, he said, is greater access to capital and other support for entrepreneurs, to make sure some minor-leaguers develop into big-league stars and can help carry the team.
JumpStart came to Minnesota in part through the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Like the city of Akron, St. Paul is one of 26 cities in which the Knight family business owned newspapers, so it continues to benefit from the foundation.
JumpStart essentially proposed an in-depth plan to improve the health of the start-up community. Cecile Bedor, the director of planning and economic development for the city of St. Paul, said city officials liked the idea if it could be regionwide. And a JumpStart project would dovetail nicely with an ongoing effort on a regionwide business plan for economic growth.
JumpStart's report later acknowledged that the Twin Cities region has a rich history of innovation, a leading research university and a deep list of Fortune 500 companies.
But it went on to say that "the region has experienced a number of troubling trends over the last decade. The region has experienced a declining share of high-tech jobs, business starts and growth rates. As recently as 2002, the state of Minnesota ranked as high as ninth on the Kauffman Foundation Index of Entrepreneurial Activity. From 2008 through 2011, the state ranked no higher than 41st."
Everyone the group met here "universally" agreed that too many entrepreneurs cannot find enough capital and expertise.
Entrepreneurs get capital from a variety of sources, but venture investing is a common way to gauge the health of the market. Minnesota had more than $200 million in venture investing through three quarters of 2012 -- but it was less than half of Colorado's total and less than a third of the state of Washington's, as reported in the PricewaterhouseCoopers/National Venture Capital Association MoneyTree report.
"It's honestly pretty paltry," said Randy Hines, senior managing director for the investment bank Oak Ridge Financial and a longtime fundraiser for young companies, of the capital available for young companies in the region.
Accelerate MSP is just getting started, so there will be no investments anytime soon. Bedor said Accelerate MSP hopes to have a job opening posted for a chief executive by the end of March, and part of his or her job will be fundraising. The city of St. Paul said the goal is to provide entrepreneurs connections to other helpful groups in the region as well as eventually make seven to 10 investments in early stage, high-potential companies per year, of up to $500,000 each.
That may not sound like a lot of money, but similar efforts in northeast Ohio over time have produced results in areas without the economic strengths of the Twin Cities.
Of the $70.6 million JumpStart has raised in eight years through June, $23.8 million was invested directly into early stage companies. Moreover, as of June, 69 of its client companies had raised more than $1 million in additional outside capital, and JumpStart client companies have raised about a half-billion dollars.
And this is northeast Ohio, in towns like Akron, where only Goodyear is left of the big tire companies. Almost 19,000 jobs in greater Akron's rubber industry evaporated from 1980 to 2007.
JumpStart this year put $250,000 into a start-up that planned to make pads inspired by the feet of a gecko that will dissipate heat generated by electronics, one of a number of JumpStart's investments in Akron. According to a 2010 study, there were 45 companies in Akron's business accelerator, and accelerator graduates have produced jobs with an average annual salary in 2009 of $62,000.
Start-up funding activity in northeast Ohio has a ways to go before it reaches Silicon Valley proportions, but word of available capital has reached Minnesota.
"When we were out working on funding for Miromatrix [Medical]," Hines said of the Minnesota-based regenerative medicine start-up company, "we were told to take it to Cleveland," that it'd be "easy" to fund there.
Anything that makes start-up funding easier here -- nonprofit or for-profit -- is a welcome development.

With long arms, high shoulder blades and powerful fingers, the ancient creatures were built for climbing trees. But they also had long lower limbs, flat feet and a flexible lumbar spine that gave them a distinct evolutionary edge: They could cover long distances by walking upright on two legs.
After four years of intense analysis, a team of paleoanthropologists is making its most detailed case yet that a pair of ancient skeletons discovered in a grassy South African valley could represent the direct evolutionary link between modern humans and the family of human ancestors that includes the Australopithecus known as Lucy.
In a series of six papers published in Friday's edition of the journal Science, the researchers argue that the "mosaic nature" of the Australopithecus sediba specimens makes them a strong candidate to be the "missing link" — the branch of Australopithecus that ultimately gave rise to the genus Homo, which includes Homo sapiens.
The skeleton fossils have so many human-like features "across the whole of the body that it must be considered, at the very least, a possible ancestor," said Lee R. Berger, a paleoanthropologist at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, who discovered the fossils in 2008. Berger was senior author of all the new studies.
But not everyone accepts this view. Critics say the skeletons are not old enough to be the precursors to Homo. Others say the similarities can be chalked up to the diversity of early hominids, but that certain aspects of A. sediba's anatomy make it an unlikely candidate for being our forebear.
At a minimum, the new details revealed in the papers are causing scientists to revise, or at least question, some long-held assumptions about the anatomical makeup of our extended evolutionary family. For example, though it was long believed that Australopiths had six lower vertebrae — one more than humans and at least two more than apes — it is now clear that they had the same number as humans: five.
The ape-like boy and older woman who tumbled through a sinkhole and lay buried in a deep underground cave for nearly 2 million years have also given scientists a better view of how our early relatives walked. One of the papers focused entirely on the female's lower limbs and reconstructed the mechanics of her motion.
By examining bone grooves and muscle attachments in the kneecap, thigh and lower leg bones and comparing them with those in humans and apes, the scientists were able to figure out that the roughly 4-foot-tall creature walked upright. But she probably did so with a peculiar gait marked by an inward rotation of the knee and hip, causing her narrow-heeled feet to twist slightly.
This type of motion is called hyperpronation, and in modern humans it's considered a problem that needs correction. But the leg anatomy of this female suggests that A. sediba was built to walk in this manner, said Jeremy DeSilva, a functional morphologist at Boston University and lead author of that part of the analysis. The team wrote that it would need to examine more fossils before it could say whether the entire species walked the same way.
Berger said that if modern humans were to observe an A. sediba walking by, their attention would probably not be drawn to its legs. "What would be a great difference would be how it swung its long upper limbs during that walk and the shrugged-shoulder appearance of its upper body," he said.
The researchers speculated that the animals spent their lives both in trees and walking on the ground.
In other aspects of the research, scientists reported that these specimens had jaws and teeth that are recognizably human. In earlier studies, researchers concluded too that the creature's hands were capable of precise gripping.
The presence of several human-like features has led Berger and others to suggest that A. sediba, which lived an estimated 1.78 million to 1.95 million years ago, may have been the species that evolved into the earliest members of the Homo genus.
But other paleoanthropologists have pointed out several problems with that thesis.
Donald Johanson, the Arizona State University paleoanthropologist who discovered Lucy in 1974, said the first Homo species appeared 2.4 million years ago in eastern Africa. Instead of giving rise to the genus Homo, A. sediba would have been a contemporary.
"Sediba abundantly demonstrates a unique set of anatomical features of an Australopithecus species that was most likely a dead-end branch on our tree," said Johanson, who was not involved in the new studies.
Ian Tattersall, paleoanthropologist and curator at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, said that A. sediba's skull, ribs and parts of its pelvis were just too different for it to be a direct ancestor.
"In general, it doesn't have the flavor of the genus Homo," Tattersall said.
One of the factors that has continued to confound experts is the paucity of fossils from early Homo species. Many discoveries in eastern Africa involve small pieces and shards of bones, the result of foraging animals spreading remains over large areas. That has forced scientists to extrapolate much of what they know from just a few bits — such as teeth or portions of skulls.
This fragmentary nature of Homo fossils makes the record of when the first creatures appeared spotty and "shockingly bad," Berger said. "Imagine if someone presented you with one car that was complete from bumper to bumper and another represented by a steering wheel, one tire and a headlight and started to argue with you that the latter car ... is the faster one," he said. "That is the difficulty my colleagues and I face."
Where Berger and his doubters agree, however, is that new discoveries will eventually solve the puzzle.
"It's true that our earliest evidence of genus Homo is spotty," said Brian Richmond a paleoanthropologist at George Washington University. "It's a palate here and a jaw there. ... I think it's almost certain the evidence will come."

A winner was selected from 70 designs submitted by 19 freelance designers.
Sutton Landscaping
we're a smaller co. trying to grow. we have survived all most entirely on word of mouth advertising, ( with emphasis on survive). we have both commercial and residencial accounts, but are heavy on residencial. we're looking for a more professional look. we offer every aspect of landscape maint. as well smaller landscape construction jobs, i.e. retaining walls,paver patios, paths, lighting, plantings, ect. we are clean, quick, and dependable. we,re about quality not quantity. time is valuable, money well spent, "go play-we got this", type of thing.
I would like to have more of a commercial maintenance presence while keeping a solid residential base. older folks as well as office managers.
simplistic, ( not elementary ) professional, eye catching in color and design, approachable, inspiring. it would be nice for it to be tranferable from letter head, to clothing, to vehicles. Black, orange, and green appeal to me. my trucks are black and i thought maybe orange lettering and green incorporated somehow,(a simple leaf perhaps). though maybe it could change around depending on the application. - Things to stay away from: I dont like square - oval works though. Ild like to stay away from they obligatory "fir tree stand" or "mountain back drop" or the single "mighty oak". - Abstact is fine (hints of movement,grass,palm, or fern leaf). -The pic I uploaded is one I like, i I think it needs one more leaf on bottom and the black square needs to be oval or something, and maybe parts of the leaf and lettering spill outside the oval. the leafs could be a little more in scale. not married to it but I like it.

I've always been a sucker for weird science experiments — and I mean going back to my childhood.
I'm dating myself when I tell you that one of the first television shows I remember as a child was "Watch Mr. Wizard," which I viewed on a black-and-white TV with rabbit ears.
When we notice something interesting in nature and wonder what's going on, science can help us understand. Even more intriguing perhaps is when someone shows us something entirely unexpected and then goes on to explain the scientific understanding about why it is so.
In a line of Mr. Wizards and weird science guys comes Dylan Hart with his "Scientific Tuesdays" videos on the Household Hacker channel on YouTube.
Using ice to boil water is the kind of counter-intuitive idea that I'm talking about. As revealed in the video player on this page, it is not just a play on words. Ice is the key element in the experiment that results in bubbles bursting forth from a bottle of water.
Is it possible to make things disappear? It's all about light refraction, and a video from last August shows the basic concepts of invisibility. To go a step further, Adam Frank of National Public Radio discusses the theoretical concept of about how objects could be"cloaked," based on research at Cornell University.
If you want to know how water can be kept below 32 degrees without freezing and then observe ice crystals form rapidly, check out the video from June 2010.
If you want to see water climb up and over a glass of water, see the video from January 2011.
"Scientific Tuesdays" also features a bunch of fun things to do, such as create super bubbles, and burn a $20 bill without losing a cent.
For the complete list of "Scientific Tuesday" videos, go to this page.
