Dean slater interview

What inspired you? inspitration came from my teacher Walt Maurus... I created the frist red, white and blue bettas..they were then sent overseas by my teacher the original name I gave to them was Bicenntenial Bettas but this name somehow got changed to Mascot...Walt also created the worlds first Gold bettas and this was before we had the metallic bettas...my goal is to teach as many people about betta genetics and try to bring back dome of the older strains and  have online shows that promote strain purity, the betta world has suffered greatly because of the satndards some shows have put on them, while on one hand promoting saving the fish on the other hand making sure only a limitied amount of genes are able to be shown thus crushing the gene pool...let me give you an example...in the category they have for black...only the blackest fish should win...there are 4 strains of blck and the only one of those that show the intense black that they want is the Superblack...so..people tend not to breed the other blacks because they can not compete with the superblack...like Black Lace or Black orchid that always shows blue...the melano has suffered for years because of breeding to steel, this was a mistake..Melano should be bred to red or yellow to carry that gene..instead of a fish that is mostly iridecsent. there are many misconceptions I am trying to get people on the right track and getting the overseas breeders involved as well . What are your aims?  I think genetics have also suffered because of misinformation.what are your plans for the future?  The breeding of multi colored fish has also diminished the gene pool as breeders multi colored fish are useless...this is also a big strain on the betta world...and pure strains are geetting harder to find...like Blue without metallic or marble genes the problem is when a new thing comes along people want to breed it into everything thus losing the pure strains/

(3,000-Year-Old Weapons Found In Arabia

An incredible cache of bronze weapons dating back almost 3,000 years has been unearthed in the Arabian Peninsula. Bows, arrows, daggers and axes were found scattered within the remains of what is believed to be an ancient religious building. Intriguingly, they are all small-scale models made from metal and are thought to be purely ornamental, perhaps intended an offering to a god of war. Experts believe the weapons, which date from 900 to 600 BC, were once displayed on shelves, furniture or hung on walls, before they fell off and were discovered alongside ritualistic objects. Two collections of items are of particular interest to archaeologists - small quivers entirely made of bronze, each containing six arrows and other metal weapons.=read more =http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=c2a_1457717471

Wild mountain lion suspected of eating koala at Los Angeles zoo

When Killarney, a 14-year-old koala bear, went missing from her pen at Los Angeles zoo, staff were baffled.

Now investigations have thrown up a prime suspect in the mystery disappearance - a wild mountain lion roaming the city’s urban neighbourhoods and seeking to prey on the zoo’s inhabitants.

P-22 is probably the only mountain lion to ever eat koala. what a hipster foodie! https://t.co/iM9GtnPRIE

— dolly m (@loather) March 10, 2016

The six-year-old lion, dubbed P-22, has already gained celebrity status after emerging last year from Griffith Park - America’s biggest urban park - to enter the normally sleepy Los Feliz neighbourhood, causing panic and a media frenzy by taking refuge in the crawl space underneath a house before casually leaving again.

Officials have fitted a colar around his neck with a GPS device to track his movements.

Evidence that he absconded with the unfortunate Killarney is circumstantial rather than forensic - yet, zoo officials say, compelling.=read more =http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/12190540/Wild-mountain-lion-suspected-of-eating-koala-at-Los-Angeles-zoo.html

Keith Noel Emerson (2 November 1944 – 10 March 2016)

Keith Noel Emerson (2 November 1944 – 10 March 2016) was an English keyboardist and composer. Emerson played in a number of bands before he found his first commercial success with P. P. Arnold's backing band the Nice in the late 1960s. He was a founding member of Emerson, Lake & Palmer (ELP), one of the early progressive rock supergroups, in 1970. Emerson, Lake & Palmer were critically and commercially successful through much of the 1970s, becoming one of the best-known progressive rock groups of the era.^[1]
Following the break-up of ELP at the end of the decade, Emerson had modest success with his solo career and with Emerson, Lake & Powell in the 1980s,^[1] as well as with the short-lived progressive rock band 3, with the album To the Power of Three.^[2] ELP reunited during the early 1990s, releasing the album, Black Moon. Emerson also reunited the Nice in 2002 for a tour. His last album, The Three Fates Project, was released in 2012.^[3]
Along with British contemporaries Rick Wright of Pink Floyd, Tony Banks of Genesis, Billy Ritchie of Clouds, Rick Wakeman of Yes and Jon Lord of Deep Purple, Emerson is widely regarded as one of the top keyboard players of the progressive rock era.^[1][4][5][6] AllMusic describes Emerson as "perhaps the greatest, most technically accomplished keyboardist in rock history".^{[7]=wiki link =https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Emerson}

An exceptional fossil skull from South America and the origins of the archosauriform radiation

Birds, dinosaurs, crocodilians, pterosaurs and their close relatives form the highly diverse clade Archosauriformes. Archosauriforms have a deep evolutionary history, originating in the late Permian, prior to the end-Permian mass extinction, and radiating in the Triassic to dominate Mesozoic ecosystems. However, the origins of this clade and its extraordinarily successful body plan remain obscure. Here, we describe an exceptionally preserved fossil skull from the Lower Triassic of Brazil, representing a new species, Teyujagua paradoxa, transitional in morphology between archosauriforms and more primitive reptiles. This skull reveals for the first time the mosaic assembly of key features of the archosauriform skull, including the antorbital and mandibular fenestrae, serrated teeth, and closed lower temporal bar. Phylogenetic analysis recovers Teyujagua as the sister taxon to Archosauriformes, and is congruent with a two-phase model of early archosauriform evolution, in=read more =http://www.nature.com/articles/srep22817
