Primitive fish had genetic wiring for limbs
From Reuters:
Primitive fish already may have possessed the genetic wiring needed to grow hands and feet well before the appearance of the first animals with limbs roughly 365 million years ago, scientists said on Wednesday.

Born Today May 22 Oliver Perry Hay
From: Today In Science History
American paleontologist whose catalogs of fossil vertebrates greatly organized existing knowledge and became standard references. From 1912, he conduct his research at the United States National Museum where he assisted in working up and describing the museum's collections in vertebrate paleontology. Hay's primary scientific interest was the study of the Pleistocene vertebrata of North America. He is renowned for his work on skull and brain anatomy. His first major work was his Bibliography and Catalogue of the Fossil Vertebrata of North America (1902), supplemented by two more volumes (1929-30). Hay also wrote on the evidence of early humans in North America.«

Mastodon and Man
From: Today In Science History
In 1979, the discovery of a Clovis type projectile point found in association with mastodon remains provided the first solid evidence of the coexistence of humans and the American mastodon in Eastern North America*.

What to give for Christmas??
This morning we received this comment. Because it is a question that many of us are trying to answer in the next few weeks we have included the question and answer as a separate post.
Hi people

Great Question! It seems like many folks are looking for unique gifts…something TRULY different from the gloves, socks, picture frames, etc., etc.
Kids or adults…I’ve seen both ogle for hours over a unique fossil or mineral. They love showing them to friends and learning the interesting history behind them. At Fossilicious.com we’ve been able to put awesome gifts into the homes of thousands of folks in a range of prices from very little to quite a lot. You’ve come to the right place for help finding a WONDERFUL gift!
Rocks, fossils and minerals make amazing and inspiring gifts. Let’s say you have a friend who likes to hike and they pick up the unusual rock occasionally. So you already know they have an appreciation for the natural beauty of rocks and minerals. For these folks, you could browse for a beautiful amethyst, citrine, aventurine, or other precious mineral specimen.
They come in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. Fossilicious.com sells lots of different specimens, and will include some good information to go along with it. Rock hounds like to know where the specimen came from, the chemical composition, what makes the unusual color and so on.
Now a rock hound may also like unusual fossils INSIDE the rocks. There are many options to choose from here. Dinosaur coprolite (fossilized dino poop!) is really fun. We know some folks who tell their friends it’s a good-luck stone and have them give it a kiss or a lick for good luck. THEN they tell them what they’ve just done! Fossilicous.com has coprolite in lots of shapes and sizes to choose from.
Teeth are always popular, especially shark teeth…again, all shapes, sizes and prices. Because of this, you could put together a small collection that spans different time frames and geographic locations. Fossilicous.com carries shark teeth from ancient times to more recent, say 1.5 to 16 million years and they come from as far away as Morocco and near by as South Carolina…if you’re in the United States, that is.
You could pick a rock that IS a fossil. This flexicalymene trilobite
is of good size, and fairly sturdy, but doesn’t cost a lot. If you sent it with information, say a book about trilobites or fossils, you’d have a really nice gift.
Wearable fossils are fun, too! Girls and guys both like the look of natural jewelry. A simple orthoceras or ammonite hanging from a chain is a great conversation piece that can be worn every day.
If your friends are into metaphysical pursuits, you can’t find a better gift than a crystal or fossil. Many folks into the metaphysical qualities of rocks and minerals still don’t know that fossils have good energy, too! Your fossil purveyor should be able to provide you with this information as well as the scientific information.
