10 Daily Things

Peta is known to many as the vigilante group of animal rights activists. Even though they are right about the causes they defend, some aren’t always too thrilled with the way they go about it. Well instead of using blood on furs this time around, they have created a video game inspired by Super Mario Brothers called Super Chick Sisters. If some aren’t aware, PETA has been slamming KFC for the way they treat their chickens. What has to be the best part of the game, is Pamela Anderson as the Princess!

This video featured on the TV program ‘Paranormal Borderline‘ hosted by Johnathan Frakes and appears to show what some people are claiming to be “proof of alien abduction”.

It is a security video from what appears to be a store. The time is 11.16pm and a worker is seemingly closing up the place for the night. However, when he opens the back gate and walks outside there is an instant, blinding flash right where he is standing and then all of the security cameras are temporarily knocked out, soon resuming their function. They then run for another 1 hour 50 minutes until 1.06am when there is another blinding white flash and all the cameras again get knocked out. When they resume function the aforementioned worker can be seen lying in a foetal position nearby to where he disappeared. He then leans up, vomits, then staggers off disorientated.

There is no way of knowing for sure what is happening in this video, however, the possibility that it could be an abduction cannot be ruled out. There is a possibility that the man may have accidentally wandered into a downed powerline and knocked himself unconscious. Maybe it could be an elaborate hoax?

A fossil animal locked in Lebanese limestone has been shown to be an extremely precious discovery - a snake with two legs.

Researchers at the European Light Source (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, used intense X-rays to confirm that a creature imprinted on a rock, and with one visible leg, had another appendage buried just under the surface of the slab.

The 85cm-long (33in) creature, known as Eupodophis descouensi, comes from the Late Cretaceous, about 92 million years ago.

Current evidence suggests that snakes started to emerge less than 150 million years ago.

Two theories compete. One points to a land origin in which lizards started to burrow, and as they adapted to their subterranean existence, their legs were reduced and lost - first the forelimbs and then the hind-limbs.

The second theory considers the origin to be in water, from marine reptiles.

This makes the few known bipedal snakes in the fossil record hugely significant, because they could hold the clues that settle this particular debate.
