Laziness helped lead to Homo erectus extinction

Image
New archaeological research from The Australian National University (ANU) has found that   Homo erectus , an extinct species of primitive humans, went extinct in part because they were 'lazy'. An archaeological excavation of ancient human populations in the Arabian Peninsula during the Early Stone Age, found that  Homo erectus  used 'least-effort strategies' for tool making and collecting resources. This 'laziness' paired with an inability to adapt to a changing climate likely played a role in the species going extinct, according to lead researcher Dr Ceri Shipton of the ANU School of Culture, History and Language. "They really don't seem to have been pushing themselves," Dr Shipton said. "I don't get the sense they were explorers looking over the horizon. They didn't have that same sense of wonder that we have." Dr Shipton said this was evident in the way the species made their stone tools and collected resources. &

Jose Mourinho needed more from Manchester United owners in transfer window, say fans

Image
Jose Mourinho has received backing from Manchester United fans Manchester United Supporters Trust vice chairman Sean Bones believes Jose Mourinho has not had sufficient backing from the club's owners. Mourinho cast a forlorn figure during pre-season - complaining about a reduced number of first-team players due to their World Cup exploits, the absence of Anthony Martial and a lack of new signings. However, while in the United States, Mourinho was still confident of one more arrival with a central defender at the top of his list, but deals for Harry Maguire, Yerry Mina and Toby Alderweireld failed to materialise Mourinho: Nothing has changed at Utd With Fred the only first-team addition made over the summer, Bones feels the owners have left Mourinho a huge task to mount a title challenge with his largely-unchanged squad. "Obviously it is the job of the owners to put the manager in the best possible position to win the league," Bones said

Sex toys cause closure of German airport terminal

Image
(CNN) —  Various sex toys, including a vibrator, were mistaken for a bomb, causing a partial closure at Berlin's Schönefeld Airport on Tuesday. Employees at the airport were conducting routine X-rays of luggage when they spotted "suspicious content in a luggage piece," according to the federal police in Berlin. Because it was unclear from the initial scan what the bag contained, an alert was issued shortly before 11 a.m., resulting in the closure of the airport's D terminal while   police investigated the suspicious items. The owner of the bag was called over the airport speaker system and eventually talked to police about his luggage. However, he was reluctant to properly explain the contents of the bag -- possibly because of embarrassment, according to a federal police spokesperson -- saying instead that his luggage contained "technical stuff." After an hour-long investigation involving a bomb squad, authorities eventually determined that the
