Pretty kitties, tusks, and more! Traditionally, the Big Five of Africa were the most ferocious mammals hunters tried to kill. Now safari-goers are more likely to shoot with a camera. But there are other ways to encounter the Big Five. 1. Elephant biltong (that's jerky to some of us). 2. Suicide by Lions -- don't get your lady pregnant, or this might happen to you. 3. Cape Buffalos are usually in a herd, but sometimes you'll meet the Dagga Boy. 4. Dead Rhino at your local Mormon University museum. 5. Leopards -- here kitty, kitty. more inside

Teach your brain to stretch time - Biologists traditionally divide our timekeeping abilities into three domains: circadian rhythms, which control things such as sleep and wakefulness over the 24-hour period; millisecond timing, which is involved in fine motor tasks; and interval timing, which is the seconds-to-minutes range - the system through which we consciously perceive the passage of time.

Curious George: Nudes for Kids So my son is 8 years old, and has recently started getting very curious about the differences between male and female bodies. He's even come home talking about a friend at school who's gained respect in 2nd grade for having "accidentally" found some pics of naked women online (probably with the accidental help of his two older brothers), and so the little Pettle has expressed an interest in seeing naked women. more inside

Faced with the challenging task of mounting an engaging display of so many tiny exhibits, the Museum staff collaborated with artist Heather Barnett and performance poet Will Holloway to create ‘Small Worlds’, an exhibition in an unusual range of media - images, objects, film, animation, curtains, wallpaper and poetry.'
