The children of the rich are becoming a separate species That they are taller and better looking can be put down to Good nutrition and confidence respectively But they have long thin limbs Delicate long fingers Large but flat chests They run for miles and still have Energy for enthustiastic, cool skinned, inventive sex They are being bred for some high, thin aired Shangri-La As the world below falls apart they will breathe Clean air, they will run up and down their mountain valley Use their long thin fingers to operate computers Doing rocket science They will fight wars against us low-landers As we rise from the sludge of all that is left They will leave for Mars and we will stay Failing to deal with a biosphere spasming And collapsing back to slime mould The children of the rich are becoming a separate species

The concept of "ley lines" is generally thought of in relation to Alfred Watkins, but the stimulus and background for the concept is attributed to the English astronomer Norman Lockyer . [3] [4] [5] On 30 June 1921, Watkins visited Blackwardine in Herefordshire , and went riding a horse near some hills in the vicinity of Bredwardine , when he noted that many of the footpaths there seemed to connect one hilltop to another in a straight line. [6] He was studying a map when he noticed places in alignment. "The whole thing came to me in a flash", he later told his son. [7] It has been suggested that Watkin's experience stemmed from faint memories of an account in September 1870 by William Henry Black given to the British Archaeological Association in Hereford titled Boundaries and Landmarks , in which he speculated that "Monuments exist marking grand geometrical lines which cover the whole of Western Europe".

"Over vast areas of the oceans the only rainfall data available are those made by using conventional rain collectors placed on islands," said Prospero, professor of marine and atmospheric chemistry at the UM Rosenstiel School. "However, rainfall on the island is not necessarily representative of that which falls in the surrounding ocean. Our paper shows that properly placed rain collectors on Bermuda do yield rainfall rates that agree with those determined through the 7 Be measurements."   Scientists find new way to estimate global rainfall and track ocean pollution
