Don't forget to tell the kids that they are eating one of the only surviving dinos. That will add so much more to the fun.

I never ever ate a whole turkey, but sometimes I bring home parts to cook and the kids do not understand how a chicken grow soooooo large
(They love the wings roasted with tomatoes and sometimes that wing is larger than a simple chicken)

I'm just wondering how they have gotten so small. The Allosaurus, Tyrannosaurus or Spinosaurus all were Theropods. The Theropods are also the only group of dinosaurs that have survived and this[^] is the most common Theropod today.

Not all of the Theropods where huge: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaur_size[^] - some were a couple of inches long. The smaller ones might have survived better (like mammals did) by having smaller food requirements in a devastated ecology. Just a guess - but look at the range of sizes in mammals - mice / elephants / whales?

Exactly. The feathers also point to the smaller Theropods. They originally were needed to keep them warm, like fur. the bigger dinosaurs would not have had a problem with keeping warm, much more with not getting too warm and with getting rid of excess heat. Feathers would probably not have been good for the bigger ones.

On the day I shall be giving thanks that I don't live in USA and therefore avoid all this nonsense! I'm really not sure I could ever reconcile giving thanks for a bunch of religious nutters who only came to my country because they couldn't get away with persecuting their fellow Englishmen any more!

I concur... but I love Roast Turkey, Potatoes, Yorkshire Puddings with gravy and Brussels Sprouts! Yum! I gained six stone in my first few months after moving to the USA and haven't lost more than one of them since!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

My new office computer got Office 2013 on it...I'm with it less then a week, but can't look at Outlook without crying...
There is no any contrast between the areas even in the dark theme...You can not let the OS theme through...
You can set font size for messages to normal (11 - way too small) or big (14 - way to large), but nothing between...
It is just a nightmare...
for years I was able to work with Outlook, but now I'm seriously consider to move on...
I'm sure that someone at Microsoft had a serious head injury somewhere between 2007-2013...

I've been on Outlook 2016 for a few weeks now and isn't too bad.

Several. Fist there was the aftermath of Vista, a brief recovery with Win 7 and from then on everything went steadily downhill.

Did they roll back any of the todo bar changes from 2013?
I tried it at home and then rolled back to 2010. 2013's headline regressions were only allowing a single month of the calendar to be shown (I have 4 up); and limiting calendar appointments to only looking 1 week ahead (1 day at release) vs 4 weeks. The net result was that I ended up with a big chunk of dead space on the lower right corner of my screen; and had to go to the calendar tab itself to maintain a decent overview of what's upcoming vs being able to see far enough ahead on the main view.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

What is it with these guys that they don't like contrast. Maybe if someone smashed them in the head again it would rebalance them.

The internet is littered with complaints about Outlook 2013.
Where I work we upgraded to Office 365 recently and without exception every person I have spoken to dislikes Outlook intensely.
Two things I did that have improved it slightly are to move the reading pane to the right and I selected an option to separate emails with a line(albeit very light lines).
The only conclusion I can come to is that in the spirit of 'improving' software some companies now break their user interface when quite simply it does not need changing, or it needed very few changes.
It would be like car manufacturers suddenly deciding to create a triangular steering wheel just to 'innovate' and 'disrupt' their competition. A steering wheel serves its purpose and does not need major changes with each release of a new car, so why can't the idiots who break user interfaces have the same level of intelligence?
