Does anybody have any information about why there is no information about Michelle Knight? I have not been able to find any missing persons sites or news report on her case online. That she was an adult when she went missing is not a sufficient reason. Many missing adults receive a lot of attention.

As a member of the Penn State faculty (not the State College campus) I am so relieved to see that justice has been served. I do not know any of my colleagues to feel differently.

I remember this story from when I was a kid -- about 13 years old -- living in So Cal. It was one of the earliest cases of child kidnapping that I became aware of and it was frightening to realize that such random acts of terror could happen to kids just like me.

These vulva drawings are relatively common in the Dordogne region, but this is the earliest. The earliest known "Venus" figurine with the genitalia clearly defined is from the same time period. Fertility and reproduction would have been very important to Paleolithic humans. Venus of Hohle Fels...

The parents are wrong here. The boy needs to learn a hard lesson. Better now than later when it will be much more serious. As a college professor, I am SO tired of dealing with students who think nothing of cheating.

So far there is just no evidence for fire being used by hominids as far back as tool-making (about 2 million years ago, *advertiser censored* habilis). There are no examples of ash pits found in association with the tools or fossils of that time. But no evidence does not mean that it wasn't happening and perhaps...

This article says that "Prior to the new findings, scientists had good evidence that humans had total control over fire at least 400,000 years ago." However, there is a well-studied site in Israel with evidence for controlled use of fire dated to about 790,000 years ago. This new South African...

Technically, a cult is a religion with a relatively small number of followers that is considered to be unorthodox or illegitimate. All of the major religions that exist today had their beginnings as cults.

I saw this little girl on the news. What a brave little thing. So happy that she is safe. I believe it is unrealistic to expect parents to keep their children in sight every minute of the day but the toy section of any store is not a place for children to be left alone -- and children should not...

Oh, the tangled web we weave....

You never cease to amaze me, Nova. I want you around when my ship goes down.

The main similarity between the demise of the Titanic and the demise of the Concordia is the cause of the disaster: HUBRIS

I'm confused. How did the captain steer the ship too close to shore when he was reportedly dining with passengers at the time the accident occurred? Was it another crew member who wanted to show off and salute a friend on shore? Nonetheless, the captain and crew should have stayed on board to...

The "swastika" is one of the oldest abstract symbols. It is found on pottery in Mesopotamia going back about 5000 years ago. It is also found in some of the earliest churches and synagogues (which are in the Middle East). The symbol is also commonly used in east Asia. Its meaning varies from...

No more pink snowballs?! That cannot be. I am sure that I eat enough of them to keep the company in business.

Great story. It is a happy new year for all involved.

Amazing cloud formations! I've never seen anything like it.

It sounds like Lowe's is the one with the agenda. I will be checking out the show AND shopping at Home Depot.

Thanks Charli-Ann. So I guess the video of "Gordon" is not to help identify the first actor since it shows only the known Matt Robinson. Odd. They need to post a clip from the pilot that shows the mystery Gordon.
