Tabby cheetah crosses first play

The two frisky kittens born at Sydney Zoo with a cheetah father and tabby mother have been sighted playing together for the first time. Jade and Jasmine are two weeks old and live with their father Ganett while their mother Fushia enjoys a lateback life with her owner Miss Myller or Angela Rd. Miss Myller who recived the news this morning is thrilled to hear her kittens are finally socializing as sister and brother. Last afternoon awed passer- bys watched eagerly as Jasmine ambushed on the unsuspecting furry bundle of her brother.  Jade leapt to his haistly defence resulting in aws and cooing from the mesmorised crowd. One of the watchers, Mr Rhyan Barrington described it as ' the most amazing thing I'd ever seen the timing, the stealth, everthing.'

Ferdinand Magellan

Ferdinand Magellan was born in Trás-os-Moutes e Alto Douro Portugal, 1480. He died at the age of 40-41 on April 27, in Mactan, Philippines. He had only completed half of his epic voyage around the world. Not only was Ferdinand known for that but sailed the first voyage from Europe to Asia using the West route, rounding the south of the Americas and also being the first to cross the Pacific. He also sailed for King Charles 1 of Spain when searching for a west route to the Maluku Islands of Indonesia known as the Spice Islands in his day. Unfortunately when passing the Philippines he was killed in the brutal Battle of Mactan.

 However sixteen months later one of his ships arrived in Spain. On board were 18 survivors who had just sailed around the world.

Wolf Teeth Part One by Kaia

Tracy's cold hands reached out so far that they leaned over the edge of the ragged bed. Hurriedly Beackmore leaned over and pushed her daughter's hands back onto the moth-eaten sheets.
"I need to find him," panted Tracy her ash grey face staring into Beackmore's steady green eyes.
"Your father's dead" Beackmore replied firmly, "You can't risk going out there again. The wolves'll eat you and I can't lose another family member."
Tracy was firm about this but Beackmore wouldn't let her go. Tracy raised her body so that her face was level with Beackmore's.
"Dad's not dead I know" said she.
"But nobody could survive in 'that place'," protested Beackmore.
"Well he could survive unless Orange abandoned him," Tracy replied.
