Humans are capable of turning anything into a controversy.
I don’t understand why clean air is a controversial topic. I think we can all agree that breathing fresh air is preferable to breathing smog.
However, that doesn’t seem to be the case. We spend countless hours arguing over environmental issues. I find this concept hard to comprehend.
It was originally believed the Neanderthals were killed by humans that migrated out of Africa. However, recent evidence from genetic studies prove humans and Neanderthals were interbreeding.
Researchers at National Geographic discovered, “the Neanderthal linage disappeared, because it was absorbed into the much larger human population.” They found Neanderthal DNA in humans, especially in those with a strong European heritage.
Basically, the Neanderthals intermingled with humans until they were breed out of existence.

The book Ain’t Love Grand, looks at the mating behavior of various species throughout the animal kingdom. It focuses on three main areas in the mating process.
The book is well written, easy to read, and a bit funny. I defiantly recommend it.
Astronauts spend large amounts of time in space. I wonder what they do for fun. I would recommend floating flag football.
I can see it now. An astronaut is sailing toward the guy with the ball, but just before he grabs the flag the guy with the ball starts spinning and rolls out of the way.
This not only sounds like a fun game to play, it also sounds like a fun game to watch. NASA could use floating flag football to teach people about the space program and capture the interest of children all over the world.
According to Theodore Goldsmith he wrote Aging by Design because, “We cannot hope to understand or most effectively treat and prevent age-related diseases without understanding aging.”
The author covers two modern theories for why we age. He discusses the pros, cons, and implications for each theory.
Before, reading this book I never considered the benefits of age related research or how that research could help find cures for common diseases that plague mankind. This book was eye-opening and put medical research in a whole new light for me.
I highly recommend this book.
Wonder Works Museum is located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. The building looks like an upside-down house, which makes the museum a bit unique.
Wonder Works is filled with interactive exhibits for children and adults to enjoy. It also has rides and games that are fun, educational, and challenging.
My favorite thing at the museum was the flight simulator. I am sad to say that I crashed my spaceship while trying to land. Oh well, it was till fun.
