The Reality of Michigan’s Sunken Structures

Posted on October 2, 2009 by Lisa A. Shiel

A couple months ago I mused about the possibility of sunken temples under the waters of Lake Superior. As I snorkeled in Lake Superior over the summer, floating over sandstone precipices and boulders probably dropped there by glaciers thousands of years ago, I couldn’t help noticing how many of the rock formations resembled ruined temples.

    • Molecular Clocks Tick Too Slow? November 25, 2009
      Genetic analysis has become a staple of evolutionary research. Determinations of evolutionary relationships between species often rely on molecular clocks, or the idea that we can backtrack genetic mutations to their time of origin like counting days backward on a calendar. The notion of molecular clocks assumes that mutations happen like, well, clockwork. B […]
    • Disease Genetics: A Bankrupt Idea? November 23, 2009
      Last week DeCode Genetics, one of the top companies hunting for genetic keys to diseases, filed for bankruptcy. Despite years of studying Icelandic populations the company had failed to find any common genes for diseases such as cancer. This idea, known as common disease/common variant, has long held sway in the genetics community. Geneticists thought [...]
    • Have Scientists Understated Genetic Diversity? November 18, 2009

Most animals and birds have the gene called FOXP2, often erroneously labeled the “language gene.” Humans and chimps both [...]

In this book Landon proposes that cultural evolution advances in steps, much like the idea of punctuated equilibrium in biological evolution. Has human culture advanced in spurts, driven by nonrandom forces? Landon makes [. […]

    • No Ghost Hunting Allowed November 11, 2009
      There will be no township-sanctioned “Ghostbusters” probe at the old Crouch Cemetery later this month. Monday night the Spring Arbor Township Board denied a Tekonsha man’s request to spend the night of Nov. 21-22 in the cemetery doing a paranormal investigation into the 1883 Crouch murders.

    • Cougars Confirmed in Upper Michigan November 4, 2009
      I’ve seen one a few hundred feet from my house here on the Keweenaw Peninsula. I’ve talked to others who’ve seen them too, in various spots around the Upper Peninsula.  Now the DNR has confirmed there are cougars in the UP, thanks to a game camera photos and some tracks.
