BIG NEWS! Published just this week in Current Biology, DNA proof that Dryococelus australis (aka the Lord Howe Island stick insect) is not extinct.
cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(17)31098-9
This giant insect was thought to have gone extinct in 1920 after a infestation of rats from a shipwreck on Lord Howe Island eradicated the insect from it's endemic home on the idyllic South Pacific island between New Zealand and Australia. For over 80 years it was on the list of extinct species until in 2001 scientists found a population on Ball's Pyriamid (the world's tallest sea stack) located 14 miles off the coast of the island. This 1844 foot rock jutting out of the sea is so steep it was thought that no significant terrestrial plant or animal life could be supported. However the scientists found 24 specimens living under a single shrub about 330 feet up the rock. Two breeding pairs were captured for a breeding program. This weeks publication reports that DNA testing showed the captive insects from Ball's Stack are less than 1% divergent from the museum species from Lord Howe Island, confirming that they are the same species and not a new species. Climbing of Ball's Stack is prohibited but there are hiking trails on the island. However no camping is allowed and the few hotels run by the 380 tourists are very expensive, so bring lots of cash. Also just announced is approval to begin a rat eradication program so the insect can be reintroduced to the island. Start packing.

Astro I couldn’t find where you mention exchange students, but were you an exchange student as well. Great program, my wife’s family did that, and my sister in-law went to France, she’s since visited her adoptive family several times over the years, and vacationed there, very neat.
We had two different Chinese students live with us for a total of 3 1/2 years when my middle son was in highschool. The Thanksgiving guest we're all friends of his at the university I teach and my children attend.Jake Ace wrote:
We hosted two exchange students. The first was from Moldova. The second was from Turkmenistan. Both were amazing, but couldn't be more different. They were FLEX students, with scholarships from the Future Leader Exchange program. This competitive program funds exchange opportunities for the best students from countries that are former Soviet Republics. Talented students from these countries have few opportunities.Jake Ace wrote:
