It's commonly thought that complex social order and agriculture occurred with one another, if the above story is true this temple complex has more in common with the mound building cultures than the early civilizations of the middle east.

Hi Everybody.

I just thought I'd make comment concerning claims that giant skeletons had been located in India at Kurukshetra. If a visit is made to the following web address, all will be explained.

Happy hunting!

So said Einstein apparently, and that is a worrying thought, especially as the Bees in question, the honey Bees, are seeing as much as 70% decline in the USA. The reason? Well in short, don't know. There has been a call to the scientists and specialists of the world to try and ascertain the cause. It is apparent world wide, predominately in the western first world. In the UK it is known as Marie Celeste syndrome, in the US collapsed colony syndrome, Bees are responsible for up to one quarter of the worlds food production through the pollination process, the demise of the honey Bee is potentialy catastrophic. The phenomenen has been witnessed, hives are abandoned en masse, one eye witness stated, the bees crawled out, not flew, and spread across the garden lawn, trembling and in distress, they all died. There was nothing the Bee keeper could do, but stand and watch in utter dismay. There are many theories, increase in pesticides, genetically altered crops, even a parasitic mite is under suspicion. The frenzy of erecting radio masts for wider communications on every other hillock is an interesting suggestion, RF inteference normally unheard by the human ear, is easily detected by the Bees sensitive receptors, some keepers think these waves are bombarding the Bees into a state of shock, and insanity. Can Daily Grail readers shed any light onto this serious problem, perhaps with the wealth of knowledge on this site, there may be parallels drawn from other scenarios that may be pertinent.

Scientists grinding 'perfect' spheres

CANBERRA, Australia (Reuters) -- They will be the earth's roundest spheres, crafted by Australian scientists as part of an international hunt to find a new global standard kilogram.

Europe's biggest aerospace company, EADS, has concluded that carrying wealthy tourists to 100 kilometers in altitude for several minutes of weightlessness could be a multibillion-dollar industry in 20 years and is seeking co-investors to build a rocket plane it already has designed.

Since 1991, planetary scientists have floated the idea that Mars once harbored vast oceans that covered roughly one-third of the planet. Two long shore-like lips of rock in the planet's northern hemisphere were thought to be the best evidence, but experts argued that they were too "hilly" to describe the smooth edges of ancient oceans.

The view just changed dramatically with a surprisingly simple breakthrough.

The once-flat shorelines were disfigured by a massive toppling over of the planet, scientists announced today. The warping of the Martian rock has hidden clear evidence of the oceans, which in any case have been gone for at least 2 billion years.

"This really confirms that there was an ocean on Mars," said Mark Richards, a planetary scientist at the University of California at Berkeley and co-author of the study, which is detailed in the June 14 issue of the journal Nature.

1800s weapon found embedded in whale's blubber

A 50-ton bowhead whale caught off the Alaskan coast last month had a weapon fragment embedded in its neck that showed it survived a similar hunt -- more than a century ago.

Embedded deep under its blubber was a 3 ½-inch arrow-shaped projectile that has given researchers insight into the whale's age, estimated between 115 and 130 years old.

A Canada man surprised the surgeons when they saw that his blood was green. It was due to his medication.

June 5, 2007 — Like a popcorn trail left by hikers, stone arrowheads map how and where prehistoric Native Americans first entered North America and the manner in which they populated the rest of the continent thereafter, according to a new study.

Actively growing supermassive black holes in centers of galaxies are common even in cosmic voids, the most rarefied and empty regions of the universe.

A "slice" of about 700 million light-years across in the distribution of galaxies in the universe. Voids are marked as blue circles, and galaxies within as red dots. The image shows a void galaxy that harbors an actively accreting black hole in its center; such activity is revealed by its optical spectrum exhibiting emission spikes, characteristic of hot gases ionized by light emitted from matter swirling around a supermassive black hole. Other objects in the image are either in the foreground or background. (Credit: John Parejko, Danny Pan and Anca Constantin of Drexel University)
In a study of more than 1,000 void galaxies, using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-II), astronomers from Drexel and Widener Universities announced that the growth of these monster black holes – with masses millions to hundreds of millions times that of our sun – are found where galaxies are sparse and interact very little with each other. The researchers also found that the accretion of matter onto these void black holes is slower than in denser galactic environments.
