World's first baby born with three-parent baby technique. Beyond the Flynn effect: new myths about race, family and IQ? In the garden of a terraced house in Oxford, on the hottest, sunniest day of the year, I meet Professor James R Flynn, an American-born academic who is a hero to many people.
More than 30 years ago, he discovered a phenomenon that revolutionised the study of IQ and seemed finally to settle the argument over nature versus nurture. He showed that, across the world, average IQs had risen by roughly three percentage points every decade since at least 1930, and probably much longer. Since evolution doesn’t work fast enough to produce genetic upgrading on that scale, it seemed that environment must be the dominant influence. Why Stephen Hawking is light years from the truth about ‘dangerous aliens’ The physicist Stephen Hawking is convinced that intelligent extraterrestrials populate space, a view shared by many scientists.
But his ruminations on this prospect have shifted from the aliens’ existence to their deportment. Maybe they’re dangerous. In a film recently released online, Hawking points to the potential peril in broadcasting signals to other star systems. Borgarbókasafn Reykjavíkur.

The History. Antiques Dealers Charged in Illegal Sale of Ivory Priced at $4.5 Million. Photo One chilly day last November, two well-dressed men walked into the Metropolitan Fine Arts and Antiques store on West 57th Street in Manhattan, looking for Chinese figurines carved from ivory.
It was the second time the men had been in the store, with its antique chandeliers and walls of breakfront cabinets filled with vases, ornate clocks, statues and other finely wrought objects. A salesman brought them a statuette from another floor, saying it had been fashioned from a mammoth tusk. One of the men bought the piece for $2,000. The men were actually undercover investigators for the state Environmental Conservation Department, and the statue turned out, after testing at the American Museum of Natural History, to be carved from the ivory of an African elephant. Stone me! Spears show early human species was sharper than we thought.
The ancestors of humans were hunting with stone-tipped spears 500,000 years ago, according to a new study – around 200,000 years earlier than previously thought.
This means that the technology must have been developed by an earlier species of human, the last common ancestor of both modern humans and Neanderthals. The invention of stone-tipped spears was a significant point in human evolution, allowing our ancestors to kill animals more efficiently and have more regular access to meat, which they would have needed to feed ever-growing brains. "It's a more effective strategy which would have allowed early humans to have more regular access to meat and high-quality foods, which is related to increases in brain size, which we do see in the archaeological record of this time," said Jayne Wilkins, an archaeologist at the University of Toronto who took part in the latest research.

They are the noble Criollo, the common Forastero and a hybrid between the two, the Trinitario. Criollo and Trinitario are often referred to as fine or flavour cocoa beans, while Forastero is considered the ordinary or bulk bean for mass production (although there are exceptions to this rule -- see below). Over 90% percent of the world's cocoa is bulk production, mostly from the Forastero bean. The remainder is fine/flavour cocoa, from most of the Trinitario and all of the Criollo varieties. PSA Levels: PSA Blood Tests and Prostate Cancer Screening. Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Blood Test Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a substance produced by the prostate gland.
Elevated PSA levels may indicate prostate cancer, a noncancerous condition such as prostatitis, or an enlarged prostate. Most men have PSA levels under four (ng/mL) and this has traditionally been used as the cutoff for concern about the risk of prostate cancer. Men with prostate cancer often have PSA levels higher than four, although cancer is a possibility at any PSA level. According to published reports, men who have a prostate gland that feels normal on examination and a PSA less than four have a 15% chance of having prostate cancer.
