A find of 28 fossilized remains found in a Spanish cave or 430 ,4000 years old and are believed to be is our oldest Neanderthal relatives.
BERMUDA TRIANGLE NEW THEORY
Is being claimed by scientists that huge underwater gas Explosions could explain disappearance of ships and planes in Bermuda Triangle this was through a study of giant craters up to half a mile ride 100 50 ft found off the coast of Norway. These are believed to cause up schools up buildups of method that methane which blow up under sea bed a blast could suck vessels into the the barents sea. S o s i m i l a r holes could explain the loss of airplanes and ships in bermuda triangle.The famous loss in Bermuda Triangle is a flight 19 which 5 u s naval planes vanish while training in 1945 research plane that went out to look for them also vanished

Dinosaur find resolves T. rex mystery
A newly discovered species of
Tyrannosaur - the group of meat-eating dinosaurs to which the infamous
T. rex belongs - could hold the key to how these creatures grew so huge.
Scientists from the University of Edinburgh, along with US and
Russian colleagues, discovered the fossilised remains of the animal in
Uzbekistan. They have named it Timurlengia.
A study of the 90-million-year-old beast suggested its ears and brain were crucial in Tyrannosaurs' dominance.
"We have a totally new species of dinosaur," explained lead researcher Dr Stephen Brusatte from the University of Edinburgh.
"It's one of the very closest cousins of T. rex, but a lot smaller - about the size of a horse.
"And it comes from the middle part of the Cretaceous period - a point where we have a huge gap in the fossil record."
This "frustrating" gap has made T. rex - which was found later in the period and was up to 13m head to tail - something of an evolutionary mystery. That is what this find has helped to resolve.read more on bbc link=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-35806780
Harlow tick disease dog 'lucky to be alive'
A dog owner says her pet is "lucky
to be alive" after contracting a deadly tick-borne disease that is
expected to spread around the UK.
An outbreak of babesiosis has been identified for the first time in this country, and experts say it will be impossible to contain.Two dogs in Essex have died and three others needed blood transfusions.
American Bulldog Ollie is thought to be the first dog in the UK to be diagnosed with the disease.
Owner Julie Newman, from Harlow, said she is "hugely relieved" her pet survived the illness following a transfusion.

"It was really touch-and-go if he would make it.
"He was really lethargic, he normally has so much energy but he just lost it, he went really strange and we noticed he had blood in his urine," she said.=read more on bbc link=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-35831572
Giant web probes spider's sense of vibration
Inside a lab in Oregon, US, a
two-metre spider web made of aluminium and rope is beginning to unlock
how orb weavers pinpoint struggling prey.
When an unlucky insect lands in a web, it is vibrations that bring the spider scuttling from the centre of its trap.How spiders interpret those signals is a mystery - so physicists have built this replica to figure it out.
They unveiled the design and their first results on Friday at a meeting of the American Physical Society (APS).
"We wove the web using two different kinds of rope, the same way as spiders use two different formulations of silk," said Ross Hatton from Oregon State University.
The radial strands that fan out from the centre are made of stiff, nylon parachute cable, while elastic bungee cords make up the "spiral strands".
The whole thing sits in an octagonal aluminium frame, with a speaker strapped to one corner to deliver some hefty vibrations.=READ MORE =BBC LINK=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-35849341
