Hyaenodon ("hyaena-toothed") is an extinct genus of Hyaenodonts, a group of carnivorous Creodonts of the family Hyaenodontidae endemic to all continents except South America and Australia, living from 42—15.9 mya, existing for approximately 26.1 million years.[2]

[edit]Morphology

Some species of this genus were amongst the largest terrestrial carnivorous mammals of their time, others were only of the size of a marten. Hyaenodon was one of the latest genera of the Hyaenodonts and is known from the Late Eocene to Early Miocene. Remains of many species are known from North America, Europe, Asia and Africa (In 1993 42 species were distinguished)[3].
Typical of early carnivorous mammals, they had very massive skulls but only small brains. It had a long skull with a narrow snout - much larger in relation to the length of the skull than in canine carnivores, for instance. Its neck was shorter than its skull, while its body was long and robust and terminated in a long tail.
The average weight of adult or subadult H. horridus, the largest North American species, is estimated to about 40 kilograms (88 lb) and may not have exceeded 60 kilograms (130 lb). H. gigas, the largest Hyaenodon species was much larger. H. crucians from the early Oligocene of North America is estimated to only 10 to 25 kilograms (22 to 55 lb). H. microdon and H. mustelinus from the late Eocene of North America were even smaller and weighed probably about 5 kilograms (11 lb)[4].

[edit]Range and species

In North America the last Hyaenodon disappeared along with species like H. brevirostris in the late Oligocene. In Europe they had already vanished earlier in the Oligocene. From the Miocene in Africa there are three species (H. andrewsi, H. matthewi and H. pilgrimi) known, but none of these reached the dimensions of Asian species like H. gigas and H. weilini[3]

It appeared in Walking with Beasts attacking a Indricotherium's calf. It is then shown killing a Chalicotherium but the kill is stolen by a trio of Entelodons.

From Chapter II: Sankhya Yoga

(Krishna speaking to Arjuna)
II.48. Perform action, O Dhananjaya(Conqueror of wealth, Arjuna),
being steadfast in Yoga, abandoning attachment and balanced in
success and failure. Eveness of mind is called Yoga.
COMMENTARY: Dwelling in union with the Divine perform actions
merely for God's sake with a balanced mind in success and failure.
Equilibrium is Yoga. The attainment of the knowledge of the Self
through purity of heart obtained by doing actins without
expectations of fruits is success (Siddhi). Failure is the non-
attachement of knowledge by doing actions with expectation of fruit.




///////////////////The Day the Moon Was Gone
Without the moon, Earth would be a very different and desolate place today--four hours of sunlight with pitch-black nights, steady 100-mph winds spawning giant hurricanes that last for months, and virtually no complex life forms, much less humans. Safe to say, we probably owe our very existence to the moon. But what if it suddenly disappeared? Solar gravity redirects ocean water that floods coastal spots around the globe. Sea currents shift, resulting in freakish weather patterns. Eventually, earth's axis begins fluctuating wildly and climate change grows more extreme. The poles are tropical jungles and parts of the equator become frigid wastelands. Human evolution starts churning in unpredictable ways or ends completely. Without the moon, the Earth is a very different place.




/////////////////////LQT S= To date, 12 different genes have been implicated, and current genetic testing methods can provide a specific diagnosis in approximately 70% of patients. Clinical indicators, including age, sex, corrected QT duration, and prior syncope are the most powerful predictors of future life-threatening cardiac events. However, diagnosis, risk assessment, and therapeutic strategies are being guided by genetic analysis to an increasing degree
