Today I'm working on my book (hint: Gaudry and Hipparion), but here's a few links and other tidbits of interest for your consumption;
- Indy 4 is out today. Now where is my fedora....
- This week's issue of Nature is featuring a brand new transitional temnopondyl. I'll be blogging about this one soon.
- Someone has put the documentary "My Pet Dinosaur" up on YouTube. Some bits seriously pissed me off (Dinosaurs wouldn't have continued to evolve?! And what's that, the Dinosauroid? Gah!), but I'll save a fuller critique for another day.
- Many congratulations to John Wilkins on the recent sale of his soul for the right to have a book published.
- Zooillogix has the dirt on gigantic blue earthworms.
- It's only the "Vote" page, but Huxley and Charlotte have finally both made it onto icanhascheezburger.com;

One of the joys of working on this book has been discovering little tidbits of information that have been overlooked. I haven't turned up anything especially earth-shattering, but I have found a few things that overturn some of the "received wisdom" so often repeated in textbooks and technical…
a brand new transitional temnopondyl
Is it really a temnopondyl? or a basal lissamphibian?
The paper says "amphibamid temnospondyl," but I could be wrong as I am not as well-versed in this particular area as others. I'll give some more attention to it soon.
I'm gonna beg you for a copy of that paper, Brian, if you have it.
Thanks, Brian, but I only had to sell my children (and well I am with them off my hands, too, I can tell you)...
