Because it’s been seen so rarely, scientists still know very little about it. But its striking features are already sparking debate about whether it should be given special protection, and some have even argued it could become an icon species for Papua New Guinea.
At a time when we so often hear about species disappearing, the return of this little shark is a reminder that nature can surprise us ... and that there’s always reason to hope.

Research published this year has demonstrated that playing music helps keep dementia at bay - no matter how late in life the skill is picked up.
The basic idea behind this research is not new - we know that 'cognitive reserve' (learning new things) plays a big role in delaying mental slowdown. But the reminder that "it is never too late" is welcome ...
We hope this news brings a smile!
Used, no rips and very comfy as mainly been in storage but bit discoloured and has little bits of fluff in the holes.

There is a hugh possibility that the council will demolish the Stoke Hall and there is no guarantee that it will be replaced.
I am of the understanding that a lot of effort with fundraising made this hall possible many years ago. We don't need another skate park we need to keep up with maintenance of our historic buildings.
Vote very carefully in the coming local election.
