DEATH AND NEAR DEATH

Just another day in Florida...
Motherfuckers eat their own.



Speaking of...
Scientists in British Columbia, Canada detected orca noises in their underwater microphones on the morning of December 2, 2016. An hour later, they headed out by boat to the western Johnstone Strait. They watched as a 46-year-old female orca and her 32-year-old adult son were tailing a 13-year-old mother, her infant child, and a younger sister who had fresh, whale-inflicted cuts at her rear. A few minutes later, they spotted three more female relatives of the young orca mother, including the grandmother of the infant.

Just after noon, the scientists saw vigorous splashing in a clash between the two families. As they arrived closer to the scene, they saw the matriarch of the large family chasing the male from the mother-son pair—and the infant was hanging from his mouth. 

The infant’s grandmother attacked the male, ramming him in a spray of blood. But after a few minutes, the chaos cooled down and the adult son swam away with his mother, now spotted carrying the dead infant herself, tailed by the larger family. The groups stayed separated, but the mother-son remained in possession of the corpse.

The scientists surmise the male was trying to get with the mother of the infant he killed, clearing the way for her to have his own offspring.

The remains belonged to Mesolithic hunter-gatherers, a group that existed in Sweden around 8,000 years ago between the Old and New Stone Ages. These societies have been known to show respect for the bodily integrity of their dead—that is, until now.

Deforestation, driven by logging, oil palm, mining and paper mills, continues to be the main culprit.

But the research, published in the journal Current Biology, also revealed that animals were "disappearing" from areas that remained forested. This implied large numbers of orangutans were simply being slaughtered, said lead researcher Maria Voigt of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Germany.

More Than 140 Whales Are Dead After Mass Stranding in Australia.
Rescuers in Australia’s Hamelin Bay are struggling to save six short-finned pilot whales out of an estimated 150 who beached themselves on the rocky shore earlier today. More than 100 volunteers descended upon the beach, which is located 185 miles (300 km) south of Perth along Australia’s southwest coast. The last time this happened at Hamelin Bay, some 15 years ago, none of the beached whales survived.
Only six whales remain alive after this latest stranding, with over 140 short-finned pilot whales already confirmed dead.
Scientists who carried out a 16-year survey on the island described the figure as "mind-boggling".

RH: What the hell do they do with the carcuses, drag them out to sea?

I think the fear of heights is one of our most primitive fear, and for good reason.
And what do we do with that knowledge? Scare the shit out of each other...ON PURPOSE.

Nasa's Curiosity rover, also known as the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL), is celebrating 2,000 martian days (sols) investigating Gale Crater on the Red Planet. In that time, the robot has made some remarkable observations.

It may come as no surprise that the influence of Christianity in the United States is waning. Rates of church attendance, religious affiliation, belief in God, prayer, and Bible-reading have been dropping for decades. Americans’ beliefs are becoming more post-Christian and, concurrently, religious identity is changing.

Six Months After Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico's Arecibo Telescope Is Still Under Threat

Recently, the University of Central Florida revealed itself as the leader behind a mysterious consortium that would take over management of the storied telescope—the world’s second-largest single dish.

STORY TIME: When I was there with my daughter who has actually done research there, I was standing right by that rail and said, "They should have an example of the material used to made the dish on display." She smiled and pointed

And these.
Is that technically a mutation?

My bartender hates soccer. 
I told him that 6 billion people liked it and he countered with this: 
If five-year-olds can play the game with the same rules, it is not a very difficult game to play.
I had to admit it was an excellent point. 
I countered with a really good batter in baseball only has to do his job 25% of the time.
