Edmonton workers discovered last week the bones of three dinosaurs while digging a new sewer tunnel. The bones were found 120 feet (30 meters) underground by diggers Aaron Krywiak and Ryley Paul, who initially saw a sharp white tooth. It turned out the bones were that of an Albertosaurus and two Edmontosauruses. The former is a carnivore that stood on two legs, while the latter is a four-legged herbivore.

Senior colleague supports the Ph.D candidate's assertion that space proves a more critical factor than competition. There's a wealth of evidence that can be found in any university library -- biochemistry, fossils, and field biology -- supporting the theory that creatures have evolved to their current forms over the course of Terran life's existence over the last few billion years. How they arrived there is still a topic of hot academic debate.

Art collectors know painter James Havens for his realistic images of the Iditarod Trail, the Alaska Railroad, percent for art projects and allegories featuring monumental angelic figures.
