Breaking News: Were any Neandrathals Flat Footed?
#1

Suprisingly, the answer is probably not.

Neanderthals existed between 230,000 and 30,000 years ago, and belong
to the species Hominids. About 30 years ago, some fossils were found,
in East Africa, that showed Hominid feet were arched, like ours today.
It may be possible that some Neanderthals were born flat footed, if as
today, the bones fused before birth, and it may have been that they
developed diseases of the nervous system. But generally speaking,
Neanderthals had a longitudinal arch structure. As Hominids walked
rough terrain, and not the flat cemented and carpeted floors that we
walk on today, probably were not overweight, and certainly did not
wear poorly fitting shoes it is probably unlikely they ever developed
flat feet during their lifetime.

For the month of December (through December 28, 2005, 1:05pm EST), SYS-CON delivered roughly 10 million page views (10,155,827 to be exact).

Of this total, 45.7% of the traffic originated from direct links and bookmarks of its readers, and 6.7% of this entire traffic came through links from an Internet Search Engine. When you further split the Internet Search Engine referrals to specific SYS-CON story pages (see the chart below), you see a whopping 89% dominance of Google vs all others--including Yahoo! at 1.9% and MSN at 1.1%! These latter two numbers are rounding errors when compared to Google.

So it is very clear that with a referral rate of less than 7%, search engines are not a major source of readership for large publishers like SYS-CON.

In our case study, when we further dissect this 7% referral rate for Search Engines into three sub-sections--Google News, Yahoo! News and MSN News--the number of page views referred by the news sections of these three Search Engines round up roughly to 0% out of 10 million page views. (Yes, that's a big goose egg, zero percent!)

Monkey vs. Robot (and the Implications of Warped Trends in Sociobiological Self-Presentation)

Don’t expect that heading to make any sense- it’s just one of the million random songs I’ve picked up in my time at an indie radio station. “Monkey mate in the jungle/Robot replicate in factory/They both love their mother/Why must they hate each other?” I could easily go off about how it’s a deep metaphor for the eternal conflict between rural and urban life, and the struggle of a nation as it attempts to reconcile hertiage and technology.
