[Proutist Universal Editorial Note: In the following article Garda Ghista makes a comprehensive analysis on the role of journalists in making the members of the human society aware against all sorts of corruption, collusion, nepotisms and exploitations. In many countries the freedom of press is suppressed and also due to the influence of capitalism where profit or money making is the only motivation, the capitalistic owners of the media companies use the talents of the journalists for fulfilling their selfiss purpose of making profit. By the power of money they force the talented journalists to twist many facts by indulging in falsehood. The author here gives a clarion call to all journalists of the world to be ever watchful of every nook and cranny of the society - especially the politicians (leaders). It is only through their writings common people can become aware about the misdeeds of the leaders so that they are mobilized to take immediate action to rectify any wrongdoings of the leaders, the politicians, capitalists and the priests who lead (or mislead) the masses. The author, Garda Ghista is a freelance journalist based in Kentucky, USA. She can be reached at editor@worldproutassembly.org. Please click here to read the complete article in PDF.]

Scientists working with powerful imaging computers say the spectacular 'Hobbit' fossil recently discovered in Indonesia had distinctive brain features that could justify its classification as a separate, and tiny, human ancestor. (AP Graphic)Scientists working with powerful imaging computers say the spectacular "Hobbit" fossil recently discovered in Indonesia had distinctive brain features that could justify its classification as a separate — and tiny — human ancestor.

The new report, published Thursday in the online journal Science Express, seems to support the idea of a sophisticated human dwarf species marooned for eons while modern man proliferated.

The new research produced a computer-generated model that compared surface impressions on the inside of the fossil skull with brain casts of modern and ancient humans, as well as chimps and other primates.
