has added a new journalWASHINGTON (UPI) -- The U.S. space agency and Google say they have teamed to produce a new mode in Google Earth that creates a high-resolution, 3-D view of Mars.
"Besides providing a rich, immersive 3-D view of Mars that will aid public understanding of Mars science, the new mode -- Google Mars 3D -- also gives researchers a platform for sharing data similar to what Google Earth provides for Earth scientists," the National Aeronautics and Space Administration said in a statement.
"The mode enables users to fly virtually through enormous canyons and scale huge mountains on Mars that are much larger than any found on Earth," NASA said. "Users also can explore the Red Planet through the eyes of the Mars rovers and other Mars missions, providing a unique perspective of the entire planet."
The system also provides some of the latest satellite imagery from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and other probes orbiting Mars.

I don't think religion and evolution are complimentary, at least not from the Christian point of view (not sure how Islam views evolution). Religion proposes that a higher power had a hand in creating all life on earth including humans while science relies on a loosely based theory with only partial evidence to back it up.Neither offers a real answer to the origins of human life on earth and probably never will. However, zealots from the far religious right are using the lack of evidence for evolution as a basis to lend crediblity for creationism and argue that it should be taught alongside evolution even though their unsubstantial explanation for life on earth depends soley on faith and nothing else.
Given the choice between some evidence and none at all, I'd choose the former rather than the latter and contend that creationism should be kept out of public schools. I know I've digressed quite a bit from Sabbasi's question but I figured this might stir up a few opinions.

I do not believe humans and apes/monkeys have a common ancestor; however, Muslims do believe that some people were turned into apes for disobedience.See www.usc.edu
for details. Now people have differed whether it was a physical transoformation or not.

has added a new journalSince the Need is the Mother of all invention, and inspirations play alot of role in it, i thought about making this Village Entry where Villagers might share their favourite Link, Define what it is and maybe even THINK and discuss it if they want. Its like sharing Knowledge for the Ease of Comfort(homework we are stuck on maybe or the IDEA we might be Stuck on like idea of sense of humour etc) of the many :)

Ok I think one Thing I would say,we should try our best not to post Links Related to Religion because its a Controvertial Issue; Sectarian stuff,Different "Brands" of Islam etc, not that i am pointing fingers at anybody but this just came up in my mind to avoid conflict among Villages or Villagers

1. Why do pajamas have pockets?
2. Why do people sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" when they are already there?
3. Does anybody actually enjoy the music they hear when they're on "hold"?
4. Why is it called a hamburger when it is beef?
5. Why are they called apartments when they're all together?
6. Why is there an expiration date on sour cream?
7. How come permanents are temporary?
8. Before they invented golf balls, how did they measure hail?
9. Why aren't they called bakies instead of cookies?
10. Why isn't the word "phonetic" spelled the way it sounds?

Here are some answers:Pockets are in your pajamas for you when you take your night journey into dream land!
Hamburgers came from Hamburg, Germany and that is why they are named Hamburgers.
Apartments are all together in a building but they are also apart from each other in the building!
Expiration on sour cream to let you know it is sour enough for you!
