Initial Cat Domestication Possibly Begun In China Rather Than In Egypt

Dennis

Today cats are very common and popular pets but this leads also to the interesting question when the relationship between cats and humans started. Then there is the term domestication which means the further consolidation of the relationship in form of a close life together which we would call “keeping animals” or “keeping pets” today. The question when the relationship or even the further domestication of cats started is an interesting issue. Scientists try to answer this question since a long time but it is not easy as ancient cat remains are rare discoveries in archaeological sites. The last scientific … Continue reading Initial Cat Domestication Possibly Begun In China Rather Than In Egypt

Discovery of Alien Life… What would happen?

Dennis

Sometimes there are interesting coincidences. I read an article today in the morning on a bigger german technology related online magazine called Heise. They usually write about that computer and mobile phone kind of technology stuff but the article I read in the morning has been about extraterrestrial life (Another word for alien life) this time. I thought the Heise article was pretty interesting because I like that kind of topic. The article in fact did inspire me so much that I wanted to write about it too but laid the idea back for later because I felt too lazy … Continue reading Discovery of Alien Life… What would happen?

Daily Prompt: A Plot of Earth

Dennis

The Daily Post asks: “You’re given a plot of land and have the financial resources to do what you please. What’s the plan?“. I really can answer this question due to the fact that we had this topic in our family a few days ago. We pondered about this question and we all did agree to each other. My family and me would use the plot of land to establish a small farm to be self sufficient and independent, so that we could rely at least less on the food industry around us in the future. To make our dream … Continue reading Daily Prompt: A Plot of Earth

Just a Photo of some Plants in my Fish Tank

Dennis

This is just a Photo of some Plants in my Fish Tank. In the Background there are a lot of “Vallisneria” but I am not exactly sure what kind of “Vallisneria”. I just can say they grow very long. When I did not do anything on my Fish Tank it happened sometimes that they get longer then one Meter. No Joke. This can be a real Mess on the Water Surface. You can either let them grow if you have a Fish School which likes darker Areas in you Fish Tank or you you can cut this kind of Plants … Continue reading Just a Photo of some Plants in my Fish Tank

A mysterious Stone or not

Dennis

We found that Stone with an Inscription near the Baltic Sea in Germany. Translated to English you can read there “The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.” and in German “Die Wasserwogen im Meer sind groß und brausen mächtig; der HERR aber ist noch größer in der Höhe.” We took the Photo with a bad Mobile Phone Camera. I also wasn´t sure what the Shortcut PS934 on the Stone after the Text did mean, so that I did ask Google for it. I then … Continue reading A mysterious Stone or not
