Clever Cheater

Today was my birthday, my wife and I went to a museum. The museum looked like the UFO. When we went inside, we saw many curios; there were some vase and some far back in history’s data. I thought it was a museum about far back in history’s China. I was a FBI came form the USA. It was my first time to go to China. My wife was a FBI too. We needed to find a cheater, Tommy, he was an international wanted persons. After we visited the museum, we found a snack shop in the museum. When we went to the shop, we heard some glass’s voice. I went there and saw a peace protection.

.

The peace protection looked like Tommy; Tommy always went to museum and stole some curios. When I went after him, he used a knife and point to a girl’s heart. I wanted to help the girl, but the girl did not have any power of resistance. So I could not do anything. When Tommy and the girl, they drove a car and left there. I was very worried the girl. When some policemen came to here, a policeman came to there and count how many products disappeared. There were only four curios disappeared, but it was value $309600000. It was not so expensive, but it was very rare in China.

.

My wife and I went back our hotel first; we did not have any outline. It was very difficult; we used our computer and found some data about the museum. There were many peace protections. When we found a peace protection, we saw the girl. The girl was called Jenny. She was a cheater too. After few minutes, we heard Jenny got safe, and she went travel by the airplane. Jenny would go to the USA, she was a cheater, and Tommy was her partners. We called the FBI members in the USA and caught her in the airplane of the USA.

.

Tommy went to Hong Kong by boat and he drove an airplane back to Hong Kong. Although he did not know how to drive the airplane, he always played a computer game about airplane. When he went back the USA, he heard her partner had caught by the police. He was very worried her, so he pass oneself off as a policeman and he release her partners. Then, we went back the USA quickly.

.

Although Tommy and Jenny pass oneself off as many job, but my wife caught them in the UK! I thought Tommy and Jenny were very clever, if they became the FBI, they would be famous! The four curios found and the curios would back to the museum.

The Chicken and the Egg: Ancient Mystery Solved?

REUTERS/Jamal Saidi

Philosophers and fertility experts can rest easy as the age-old question, “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” finally has an answer: The chicken.

The research comes from British scientists out of Sheffield and Warwick universities. It all boils down to one protein—ovocledidin-17 (OC-17)—that is only found inside a chicken's ovaries, and is essential for eggshell formation.

Although the protein has been studied as part of eggshell development before, researchers used a super computer to ‘zoom-in' while a shell was forming, and found that it actually serves as a catalyst. Sheffield Professor John Harding hopes that this will aid in designing new materials.

Well, that's one mystery solved. But still no word yet on the meaning of life.
