Professor Ashworth , who is a geology prof and a University Distinguished Professor at NDSU (and all around niceguy), had some of his research end up on CNN . He and his collaborators have apparently found an ostracod (a crustacean) fossil in Antarctica.
...them on this hill of dirt in the backyard and it looks really cool. I can't wait till the spread out a bit and fill up the whole hill, it will look amazing. I'm getting really frustrated with NDSU IT. They were supposed to set up a permission thing for my account so that I could work on their website, but its been like 2 weeks and its still not done.

And I was hoping there was a scandal somewhere in there. (j/k) I have to admit to feeling a bit perplexed about something. I mentioned a while back in a locked post about the Chronicle of Higher Education's...
...three possessions to lead 13-3. "Anytime you have a punt block that's a concern. Not only a punt block but a punt taken back for a touchdown - that's a 14-point swing and that's pretty big," said NDSU coach Craig Bohl .
