POPSVelociraptor had feathers Though they lost their ability to fly somewhere along their evolution, they retained their feathers. They weigh a lot less than I would have thought though, only about 30 pounds. Compare that to a modern ostrich. Scrawny little thing...

POPSMore human evolution complications emerge We have more species than ever that could be our ancestors and the true lineage is getting murkier than ever. So many possibilities. Perhaps there was more inter-breeding between our ancestor's groups than thought.

POPSHow some dinosaurs evolved into birds Researches at NCSU studied a new dinosaur species , Mahakala omnogovae. (Related to Velociraptor!) The study found that small size was common among the two lineages that eventually evolved into birds, and that this size was evolved earlier than previously thought, before the ability to fly.

POPSMissing link found? This is a very interesting piece of the puzzle. The denialists are growing shorter and shorter on arguments against evolution. This is not to say that God doesn't exist. Something had to set evolution in motion. Where did matter come from to start it all? Hrmmm.
