99-million-year-old snail preserved in amber
Canberra — An international team is investigating a remarkable juvenile snail trapped in amber. They estimate the creature to be about 99 million years old. The shell is easy to see, but what’s truly remarkable are the preserved soft tissues, including the head, tentacle, and eyespot. “It is absolutely extraordinary for the fossil record to produce such stunning preservation, which is exceedingly rare for any fossil of this age, especially snails and many other animals,” said paleontologist Jeffrey Stilwell with Monash University in Australia.The university calls the discovery “the first and oldest preserved soft tissue of a snail in the fossil record from the mid-Cretaceous of Myanmar.” The Cretaceous period is known for its iconic dinosaurs, including Tyrannosaurus rex. —...

(He’s) uncertain quite what to do with this,” Haberman said.The reporter pointed out the facial expressions of Trump’s daughter and son-in-law as further examples of the mixed reaction.“You can see Jared Kushner there looking very happy, his wife Ivanka Trump not looking quite as happy,” Haberman said....

Melania: Why I wore ‘I Really Don’t Care’ Jacket
Chicago — Michelle Obama has said she is frustrated by the lack of change since the rise of the #MeToo movement against sexual assault and harassment.The Chicago native, who left the White House almost two years ago, made an appearance on US TV show Today on International Day of The Girl — a day the United Nations introduced in 2012 to celebrate and empower girls around the globe.“I’m surprised by how much has changed, but by how much has not changed,” Michelle said of the movement.“I think that is where the fire is coming from. Enough is enough. The world is a sadly dangerous place for women and girls and we see that again and again.”“I think young women are tired of it. They are tired of being undervalued.
