Practising Pandas

the news goes:

The gaint pandas Tuantuan and Yuanyuan that will be sent to Taiwan play in their house in Yaan. Low reproductive capacity being the main factor endangering the Giant pandas, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan have to practise their reproductive ability twenty minutes per day.The two are 4-year old now, and in one or two years later, they can have reproductive plans

But Orangutans for the time being:

Ornagutan Knocks up three

 

Male orangutan , Demo was doing his bit for his endangered species  after getting all three of his female zoo companions pregnant. Randy ten-year-old Demo will become a triple super-dad when the mothers all give birth over the next few months. The virile primate is also a jungle toyboy - after systematically working his way through the trio of older orangutans.

One small step for bears, a giant leap for Cambridge outreach It´s not often that the UK can claim a win in the space race but on Monday two teddy bears drifted nearly 20 miles above Earth to become the first soft toys to take part in extra-vehicular activity at such an altitude. The cuddly toys MAT and KMS, named after the first initials of the pupils who helped make their space suits, were strapped to a beam attached to a foam-padded box containing instrumentation and cameras. After rising to an altitude of around 100,000ft, a webcam caught their ´space-walk´ for posterity before the helium balloon burst and they fell to Earth before a parachute opened automatically to provide a soft landing. During the 2 hour 9 minute flight the radio on board broadcast the location of the craft to a chase team on the ground. The team predicted the landing site using wind speed data and arrived in time to watch the teddy bears parachute safely back to Earth in a field four miles north east of Ipswich. They landed just 50 miles from their launch pad by Churchill College in Cambridge.

 Awwwwwwww I saw this on the news yesterday - so cuteeeeeeee   (I am glad they used parachutes for their soft landing )  It was part of a scheme where Cambridge are working with children to increase their interest in science.

US ’Monster’ enters Turkey

ISTANBUL - Monster, the world’s largest online career firm operating in 52 countries with 5,000 employees, opened in Turkey.

The U.S.-based firm renewed its Turkey Web site, www.monster.com.tr, within the framework of its "Developing Markets Strategy."

"We are looking forward to developing the recruitment processes in Turkey as well as aiming a rapid growth in this market," John Hyland, managing director of Monster’s Developing Markets division, said in Istanbul.

"The significant increase in foreign investments in Turkey during the past years has created a wide range of career opportunities. This is one of the aspects that encouraged us to launch our Turkey operation," said Hyland, who is also vice president of Monster Worldwide.

"Turkey’s unique location that connects Europe and the Middle East, the increasing usage of the latest mobile and Internet technologies in the country and its growing economy have attracted us to enter the market," he added.

A new approach
"Parallel to rising computer usage and the rapid growth in the number of Internet subscribers in Turkey, career Web sites create various opportunities. But we aim to bring a new approach to this market," Güray Mert, regional director of Monster Europe Developing Markets, said during the meeting. "We believe that job seekers are more than a resume. We are looking into creating an efficient and quality labor market," he added.

"We are aware that ’human’ is the most valuable capital. We will assist companies in finding the quality talents," Mert told journalists.

While there are currently 250 companies in the portfolio of Monster Turkey, the firm targets to reach 1,000 companies by the end of this year.

"Our target for 2009 is to have at least one million job seekers joined in the Monster Turkey network," said Mert. Monster’s 2007 turnover stood at $1.3 billion.

 Auzzies are weird   I also liked the comment at the bottom of the article

"A local designer has already brought out what she calls a burqini - a full-length swim suit to make Muslim women feel more comfortable at the beach"
