Amazing Mammoth Baby.....!!!!!

Amazing Mammoth Baby.....!!!!!

Researchers at Japan’s Jikei University will soon be checking the mailbox for a cool package from Siberia — the recently discovered frozen body of an ancient baby mammoth. The nearly complete body of the female calf, said to be one of the best-preserved specimens of frozen mammoth ever discovered, is estimated to have been less than one year old before it was preserved in ice about 10,000 years ago. 

According to the Russian Tass news agency, a reindeer herder stumbled upon the 130 cm (4 ft 3 in) tall, 50 kg (110 lbs) frozen mammoth in May in an area of permafrost in northwestern Siberia, near the Yuribey River on the Yamal Peninsula, which extends into the Kara Sea. The mammoth, whose trunk and eyes remain intact and which still has some fur on its body, was shown to an international panel of experts that convened on July 5 in the town of Salekhard, near the discovery site. 

Preparations are now being made to ship the baby mammoth to Jikei University School of Medicine, where researchers will use advanced computed tomography (CT) scanners to obtain three-dimensional images of its internal organs. “This is the first opportunity for anyone to perform an analysis on a complete mammoth body,” says Jikei University professor Naoki Suzuki, “and it should provide a more complete picture of its anatomy and how it lived.”

Amazing Story....!!!! ( Crazy )

Amazing Story....!!!! ( Crazy )

Bayi mereka lahir di Eastbourn, Inggris, Senin (9/2/2009) lalu. Saat Chantelle hamil sembilan bulan lalu, mereka menolak aborsi. “Saya pikir asyik juga punya bayi,” kata Alfie yang suaranya belum pecah itu. Saat ditanya bagaimana dia bakal menghidupi anak yang diberinya nama Maisie Roxanne itu, Alfie mengaku tidak tahu. “Saya tidak mendapat uang saku. Kadang-kadang saja Ayah memberi saya 10 poundsterling.” 
“Saya juga tidak tahu caranya menjadi ayah. Tapi saya yakin kok, bisa jadi ayah yang baik dan merawat anak itu,” katanya, yakin. Alfie berusaha menunjukkan tanggung jawabnya sebagai ayah dengan menjadi orang pertama yang menggendong bayi berbobot 3,5 kg itu. 
  
“Dia bisa saja tidak peduli dan bermain PlayStation saat Chantelle melahirkan. Tapi Alfie mau menunggui pacarnya di rumah sakit,” ujar Dennis Patten, 45, ayah Alfie. Chantelle tahu dirinya hamil saat memeriksakan diri ke dokter karena sakit perut. “Saya diantar Alfie. Dokternya tanya apakah kami berhubungan seks. Saya lalu dites kehamilan. Saya menangis waktu dokter bilang saya positif hamil,” cerita remaja bongsor itu. 
  
Chantelle mengaku takut memberitahu ibunya. “Saya pikir Mama bakal membunuh saya.” Chantelle kini membawa Maisie ke rumah ibunya di sebuah rumah di Eastbourne. Di rumah itu ia tinggal bersama orangtuanya, Penny dan Steve, serta lima saudara laki-lakinya. Karena Steve menganggur, mereka hidup dari tunjangan pemerintah. 
  
Alfie masih tinggal dengan ayahnya, tapi setiap hari menengok bayinya. Sikapnya masih seperti anak-anak seusianya. Dia suka bermain komputer, bertinju, dan nonton Manchester United bertanding. Dennis, ayah Alfie, sangat terpukul ketika tahu anaknya yang masih bocah itu juga akan menjadi ayah. 
  
“Alfie menangis dan mengaku itu hubungan seks pertamanya dan tidak tahu konsekuensinya. Meski terlambat saya harus bicara lagi dengannya supaya dia paham benar perbuatannya. Dan agar tidak ada bayi lagi,” tandas Dennis yang ayah sembilan anak itu.

Adora's favorite activity--Reading

Name : Adora Svitak
Age : 7 Years old (sekarang 11 tahun)
Job :Primari teacher
Salary : US$ 300 /teaching/50 minutes.
Prie as a talk show hostess:US$ 10.000
Can read at: 3  years old
Adora books: "Flying Fingers"
Hobby : Read 2-3 books/days !!!!

“Reading and writing is my life.” Adora says seriously. She hopes to use her own success to inspire other kids to take more of an interest in reading and writing. 

“Nowadays children are lacking in reading and writing skills, and they are saying things like ‘I don't like to read' or ‘ I don't want to write.' That hurts me very much.” 

Although Adora knows her stories are a way to reach out and inspire, she hopes this website will provide some insights of her success and a platform for visitors to access additional tool for their own reading and writing. 

Adora's love of books is evident both in the vast amount she reads a day (she gobbles down 2-3 books a day) and in the diversity of her own writing.

A self-proclaimed ‘amateur historian', Adora loves to read historical fiction, so perhaps it's not surprising that her stories range in setting from ancient Egypt to Elizabethan England. Well-researched and wonderfully vivid, Adora's historical fiction informs while following fast paced and spirited storylines. Adora's interest in non-fiction history was originally sparked by historical fiction, and she hopes that her own stories will serve as a similar inspiration for other kids.
Although historical fiction remains her first love and passion, she also writes fantasy adventure stories and contemporary fiction. Adora's sense of humor comes through perhaps most in her contemporary stories, which deal with trials and tribulations that will probably seem familiar to most kids. Journal, a contemporary diary style portrait of a young girl, resonates with a fierce emotional tone. 

She also delights in the fantastic, and often sets her stories in landscapes and cultures of her own invention. In The Death of a Hag Lord a young girl comes up with an ingenious plan to defend her town from the onslaught of a goblin hoard. Adora explores more humorous terrain in The Cake of Brovdersvik, the story of two archeologists on the trail of a villainous magic skunk. 

Citing the Redwall series and the Narnia books as huge influences, Adora is currently working on Amruin, an animal tale of a bat who leads a rebellion against the forest's cruel overlord. 

Adora is often disappointed by the way girls are portrayed in books and movies, and strives to create the kind of strong, intelligent, and sassy protagonists she herself would want to read about. Jousting is Ladylike features just such a character, and also illustrates Adora's penchant for mixing the down-to-earth with the fantastic.

One of her poems :

The Philosopher
  

 
In his candlelit chamber…
The philosopher works…
Day and night…
Without a rest. 

It is great research…
But never credited…
Nothing has worked…
Nobody has paid attention…
But this time they will. 

And the philosopher tires…
But he keeps on…
He keeps on through the night. 

And on the morrow…
The philosopher wakes…
And studies his books.

A scroll and a stick…
That will tell him…
A ruler made by Merlin…
Will give him success. 

And so his work is credited…
Like the philosopher dreamed it would be…
And, his work done, he fell into the
Endless Slumber…
Which he well deserves.
