For years, paleontologists have disagreed over whether birds from the Cretaceous period went out with a whimper 鈥?dying out gradually over the course of millions of years 鈥?or with a bang 鈥?getting wiped out by the same mass extinction event that is believed to have killed off Earth most recent and final wave of dinosaurs. Now, by conducting an extensive analysis of bird fossils collected from museums all around the world, a team of researchers h stanley website as provided members of the bang camp with what scientists are calling definitive proof that most archaic birds perished in the same mass extinction event as the dinosaurs. About 65 million years ago, a major ecological shift led to the end of the Cretaceous period, all but obliterating the last living dinosaurs on Earth. What caused the ecological collapse and widespread extinction is often debated, though large-scale catastrophic events like meteorite impact depicted as comically large in the top image, the meteorite respo stanley cup nsible for the mass extinction is estimated to have been close to be upwards of 6 miles in diameter and volcanic activity are believed to have been the most likely causes. For as rare as dinosaur fossils are, the discovery of the light and fragile bones of prehistoric birds is even rarer. According to stanley mug Yale paleontologist Nicholas Longrich, debates over the effects of the mass extinction on avian populations persist due in no small part to the poor fossil record of Late Cretaceous birds.

Fresh off of its crippling pitiful $25,000 fine over collecting private Wi-Fi information with its Street View cars, Google is the target of a new federal investigation.

But that defense probably won ;t work a second time, because any cookies that were stored would by default factor into its search algorithm. And with this specific investigation, the results could be significant for Google, because each user that was affected鈥攑otentially millions鈥攃ould count as a viol stanley cups ation. The investigation is ongoing, but apparently word on a decision could come within 30 days. The FTC will want to make something stick, especially after the FCC was only able to pin down obstruction of justice, so expect to hear more about this whenever the hammer falls.
