Penasihat teknis Jack Horner mengaku akan menggunakan burung hidup untuk menetaskan dinosaurus. Profesor palaentology dari Montana State University yakin, DNA burung modern mengandung ingatan genetik yang bisa ‘diaktifkan’ kembali untuk menghidupkan kembali sifat-sifat dinosaurus yang telah lama tidur.

Untuk membuat seekor dinosaurus, ia akan mulai dengan genom Emu. “Emu memiliki semua fitur yang dibutuhkan untuk membuat dinosaurus seukuran Velociraptor dan disinilah saya akan memulainya,” katanya seperti dikutip DM.

Penelitian ahli ini juga mendapat dukungan dari banyak akademisi terkemuka. Ahli genetik Sean Carroll dari University of Wisconsin mengatakan seperti dikutip DM, “Inventaris gen burung serupa dinosaurus”.

Tak hanya itu, ahli biologi pengembangan John Fallon di University of Wisconsin menyetujui, sembari mempelajari, kita akan bisa melakukannya. “Pengetahuan genetiknya ada dalam burung. Kini tak ada yang menghalangi kami membawa kembali dinosaurus,” tutupnya. [mor]

commnet:

positifnya bagus dan merupakan penemuan yang hebat bisa menghidupkan dinosaurus lagi, jadi kita manusia bisa tau bahkan mungkin bisa melihat sendiri bagaimana dinosaurus yang hidup pada beberapa ratus tahun lahu. tapi buruknya mungkin habitat atau tempay hidup yang disediakan harulah benar-benar memadai akan hewan itu sendiri biar nggak merugikan atau menyengsarakan hewan atau manusia yang ada.

in my opinion:

Like we now that pulau komodo has been finalists on New7Wonders which means that Indonesia can be better known by the world. Pulau komodo as a national park is one of the place where komodo dragon have lived for hundreds years and still descendants of dinosaurs as a habitat. Komodo national park as the 7Wonders which has become a tourist attraction that’s  can bring the dragons, the place and Indonesia be better known in the world, so we as a people of Indonesia must be proud of it and preserve of the national park and the dragons. As we know that the dragon is a rare animal, so we must keep the safe form the extinction.

Every year, MTV Style picks out the hottest male celebrities who are deemed to have been the most fashionable during that year. This year’s list included a variety of entertainers ranging from Justin Bieber to Adam Lambert. World star Rain lived up to his moniker by placing among these top icons, and even made the editors “pine”.

Check out what MTV Style had to say about Rain below and see the rest of the stars here.

Since Rain has been conscripted into the South Korean army for his mandatory two-year engagement, we’ve been pining for the fashion magazine editorials that don’t come or the MCM luxury ads just like the ones you see above. Perched atop an enormous monogrammed steamer in rag-and-rolled khakis and an MCM varsity jacket (that differs markedly from Jaden’s, you’ll note) and in another look perched atop his toes in MCM mids and a Harrington, we are reminded of the enormous handsomeness of the K-Pop GOD and acting genius. Return to us soon, Rain. We’re only happy when it Rains. How I wish it would Rain. Your love’s coming down like… etc., etc.,…

its so embarrasing when the representatives in the middle of meeting they not work or watch the meeting, but they sleep in there. as representatives they should work very hard for the people who has choice them as now, not dissapointed the people like that.

in my opinion what he said and the fact is not same. in jakarta if he said its “genangan” maybe he should add words in behind like “genangan air bah” because if  its only “genangan” the water cannot higher than people or  houses. as a governor he should now what he said to the people. he should be more careful about what he said and more be wise to the people.

Examples and Observations:

• “I know the muffin man.”
  (Lord Farquaad, Shrek, 2001)

• “We lost a daughter but gained a meathead.”
  (Archie Bunker in All in the Family, 1971)

• “Parents lend children their experience and a vicarious memory.”
  (George Santayana, The Life of Reason)

• “I punched Mickey Mantle in the mouth.”
  (Cosmo Kramer, Seinfeld)

• “A musicologist is a man who can read music but can’t hear it.”
  (Sir Thomas Beecham)

• Lay and Lie
  “There have been some difficulties with grammar since I last wrote. Lay is a transitive verb (I lay down a case of claret every month; she laid the table), lie an intransitive one (he lies over there; she lay in bed until noon). Do not confuse them.”
  (Simon Heffer, “Style Notes 28: February 12, 2010.” The Daily Telegraph)

• “More exactly, we should talk about transitive or intransitive uses of certain verbs, as a great many verbs can be used in English both transitively and intransitively. Land is transitive in The pilot landed the plane safely, but intransitive in The plane landed. Carry is transitive in They carried backpacks, but it has an intransitive use in His voice carries well (= ‘projects’).”
  (Angela Downing, English Grammar: A University Course. Routledge, 2006)

• Among transitive verbs there are three sub-types: monotransitive verbs have only a direct object, ditransitive verbs have a direct object and an indirect or benefactive object. Complex-transitive verbshave a direct object and an object attribute. . . .
  • monotransitive: He bought a book.
  • ditransitive: He gave her the book.
  • complex-transitive: She found the book interesting.
