Mammals rising population after dinosaurs go extinct

I found this one article at http://news.msn.com/science-technology/new-research-sheds-light-on-earth-shaking-crash-that-doomed-dinosaurs talking about how after the asteroid killed the dinosaurs, mammals started to appear more around 65 million years ago. Supposedly the first mammal to make its debut on the Earth was a shrew-like creature that was possibly bigger than a mouse. It also mentioned that over time it evolved into all of the different mammals that we have today including us. Who would have thought we would originate from this one mammal.
 Dinosaurs' extinction led to mammals' rise: A 2012 artist’s rendering provided by the American Museum of Natural History shows a small, hypothetical, placental, insect-eating mammal ancestor.

    Hello fellow classmates,

    This is an outdated form!This morning, most of you signed a form that was outdated, therefore today’s signatures are void. What does this mean? It means – ”not to sign” any blank documents!!!! The college is only looking out for themselves. The college is not presenting updated information about the trip.

    We haven’t had any safety training about the trip. This trip is poorly plan and lacks planning. I lost total confidence in this trip!

    Rule number # 1. Your safety is very important! It just seems that Bakersfield College doesn’t give a damm about it!

  3. YEE HAH! HELLO THERE KERN COUNTY STUDENTS, my name is Enrique and I am cowboy philosopher…… I got more wisdom than 40 Indians, i got more skills than 20 Texas cowboys, i got more elusiveness than 10 Sheriff deputies, and more honesty than 5 smart ass crooks. I love math, but i hate to read books. Today, I’m going to discuss TRIP SAFETY in a creative way!

    Safety tip to the beautiful ladies:
    Ladies make sure your tires are properly inflated, make sure your radiator has proper coolant levels, check your oil, and tell your boyfriend to fully inspect your car,
    If your boyfriend refuses to help you inspect your car, tell him, “See yah later!!” and hit your boyfriend with a crow-bar!! YEE HAH!

    Safety tip to the ugly gentlemen:
    Gentlemen, If your girlfriend refuses to prepare you a good delicious road trip lunch,
    Come Christmas time…. Instead of buying an expensive gift for your girlfriend, buy her a full season espisodes of family show called, “The Brady Bunch” Then you get on your girlfriend’s nerves and sing the theme song, “ It’s story of a lovely lady, who couldn’t cook me a good lunch….. so i decided to go to the mall and buy a her a cheap gift called, “The Brady Bunch!” Yee Hah!

    Well students don’t forget to think about trip preparation, just remember, it is better to be safe than in a dangerous situation! YEE HAH! , YEE HAH
