'Really interesting review of the book  The Invaders  in the Wall Street Journal. The book argues that humans and their dogs outcompeted Neanderthals, leading to their demise.  Homo sapiens arrived in Europe about 40,000 years ago. It appears they quickly domesticated wolves, who helped them hunt and defend their camp sites.    According to the book, this partnership turned humans into "super predators" that drove the dog-less Neanderthals to extinction.

'<What Makes You Proud? Guest Post by Kemetia Foley> Seems like each year that Administrative Professionals Day rolls around that there is a frenetic discussion about what sort of recognition is appropriate for Administrative Professionals and it ranges from ‘Why recognize?’ to the overkills of obligatory ‘flowers and lunch with the team’, and everything in between.
