Devil Frog, Devil Toad, Frog from Hell are all common names given to this amphibian by popular media. This is Beelzebufo.
Fossils of this frog have been uncovered from the Maevarano Formation on the island of Madagascar and was described in 2008. Beelzebufo lived approximately 70 million years ago during the time of the dinosaurs.

What made Beelzebufo so fascinating was its relatively large size. The species could max out at 16 inches (41 cm) long and weigh 10 pounds (4.5 kg). In addition to their size, Beelzebufo also possessed a gargantuan head! And when compared to their ill-tempered living relatives, the ceratophyrines, who rely on their vice grip-like jaws to takedown prey… Beelzebufo was similar in more ways than one. In fact, it is estimated that Beelzebufo could wield a bite force of 500 - 2,200 newtons! With a crunch equivalent of medium to large sized mammalian carnivores, Beelzebufo should have no trouble killing its prey.

And these prey options are pretty much anything that could fit into its mouth... and yes, that includes baby dinosaurs.

It can be pretty easy for us to forget just how important plants are to the Earth's ecosystem. They have drastically changed the world since their first introductions. Plants shifted the biosphere by increasing the rate of oxygen, they changed the carbonic acid rates, the soil structure, the erosion process, and without plants terrestrial animal life may not have appeared! Just something to think about.

In this article, we will be going over one of the earliest and most well known of the early plants; Cooksonia.
Cooksonia is an extinct group of primitive land plants. The earliest Cooksonia can be dated back to the Wenlock epoch of the Silurian period. These little plants (stem width: 0.03 - 3 mm) continued onwards to become an important part of the flora up until the close of the Early Devonian. Cooksonia could have been found worldwide, but most specimens have been uncovered in Britain which is the same location as where they were first discovered in 1937. It is believed that Cooksonia grew near water such as around a river or lake and that they grew in the form of a shrub. Being as primitive as they were, they lacked leaves, flowered, and roots!! Although it is speculated that Cooksonia grew from a rhizome, but we can't be certain until further fossil evidence is found.

Cooksonia's evolutionary significance is a big one as they represent the oldest known plants to have a stem containing vascular tissue. This makes Cooksonia a transitional representative between the primal non-vascular bryophytes and the vascular plants.
More complex plants have xylem vessels consisting of annular or spiraled thickenings at the walls. While the lesser algaes and mosses do not have these. In terms of Cooksonia, some specimens show a thin black line that could very well be the remains of the xylem strand. However, it is also possible that not all Cooksonia species had tracheids (the cells located within the xylem) namely the ones from the Silurian period. Yet it is possible that the tracheids developed sometime later.

As millions of years flash by, plants across the planet began refining their processes. They evolved roots and stronger builds and morphed into many different shapes and sizes and without them...we wouldn't be here.

There's a lot of uncertainty in my moving forward here. On one hand, I cannot wait to return to a normal member. My request to end my temp period was declined sadly.

On the other hand, I started up the Blood Bowl thing again because...why not?

I think my time at Misc. Gaming was probably my most successful stint as a mod here. I actually cleaned that place up pretty well. All in all, it was a failure as all the things I promised never happened. I didn't get a good community going. I created an absolute flop of a game that I really don't feel like doing any more. I think this time my reputation as a creative mind has been obliterated.

Something happened recently with someone and I can understand it as I've thought about doing stuff like that too. During times like there where I just want to go away forever, I think of burning bridges, but I never do. I think about the better times when I want to do things and want to chat. If I burnt it to the ground, I could never return.

Not that anyone in their right mind should miss me. I'm one of a few hundred that come on here every day. I don't bring anything to the table any more so I'm just gonna stop.

No, I won't go down a self-destructive path like recent events. Even if I did try that, the echo would be almost non-existent since I don't have as much pull.

Cap's Cavern is almost done. It might end tomorrow actually. When it does, I might just take a 4 month vacation from the site. We'll see.

Ok, first off, a recycled game is a game that has aspects and gameplay of previous games. Mario Odyssey is possibly one of them! It is a great game, of course, but I’ve noticed that it is very similar to Super Mario Galaxy. It has the same health meter and it also takes place in space. It is also very similar to Mario 64, specifically Mario 64 DS, because I’ve noticed some music playing in the background in Mario Odyssey that sounds exactly like the music in Mario 64 DS. It also has moons, similar to green stars from Super Mario 3D World. Cappy is Mario’ companion, just like FLUDD from Super Mario Sunshine. Well, thats the similarities that Mario Odyssey has to other Mario Games. Thanks for reading.

Ways to get money in Luigi’s Mansion. The first method is to find a Speedy Spirit. These are the blue ghosts that appear in certain places like the green cabinet in the wardrobe room (It only appears when the lights are off) You only have once chance to catch it because it can never come back. But catching it is no cakewalk. You need to shine the flashlight at the spirit immediately or it will fly away and never come back. It looks like the orange ghost, but it is blue. After you have successfully caught it, the reward will be jewels and lots of money. The second way is catching a golden mouse. Like the Speedy Spirit, the mouse travels very fast. You can spawn one in the study room by going near the desk and open your camera. You will see a slice of cheese below you. Take a picture of it, and a golden mouse will appear. The golden mouse can also appear while you are wandering in the hallways of the mansion. Thanks for reading, I hope this helped.

How you doin', Seekers?
As I said in the title it can get lonesome sometimes... Then I get creative with pictures found on the Internet.

Now it's been almost 9 years since I joined Neo and made so many forum posts and blog posts. It seems like yesterday when I was so excited to be a part of this site. The excitement is still on, it's just diluted due to other "mainstream" social media sites but the charm I find here is nowhere to be found. The friends I made here could not be found elsewhere. I don't have many friends on Facebook who are not from Neo or from my college. So, that's how important Neoseeker is! Almost like a college. Oh, maybe Neoseeker can become an institute in future....Neouniversity :D
Neo encouraged me to be better at gaming, English and life! Helped me to stay positive and social.
Thank you Neoseeker for your contribution to the lives of many and I hope to see many more people participating here for the years to come :)

What is this? Facebook Beta? Is this a status update?

Animals, plants, and all other organisms will eventually die. And when they do most of the time they will just decay completely, but sometimes they become fossilized. A fossil are the remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a past geological age. Examples include bones, shells, exoskeletons, stone imprints of animals or microbes, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and portions of DNA.
There are many different processes that can lead to fossilization. These include permineralization, casts and molds, authigenic mineralization, replacement and recrystallization, adpression, carbonization, and bioimmuration. And this article will go over each process.

Permineralization: This process occurs when an animal is buried by sediments soon after its death or decay process. The empty spaces within the organism are filled with groundwater. Some fossils only consist of teeth and skeletal remains while others are much more detailed with skin, feathers, and soft tissue traces. Of course the more the corpse has decayed the less detailed the fossil will be.

Casts and Molds: Often the organism is destroyed or deteriorates completely which leaves an animal-shaped imprint in the rock; this is known as an external mold. On the other hand, there are endocasts -- or internal molds -- and these are formed when minerals fill the internal cavities of the animal. Common cases are of snail shells and the hollow parts of a skull.

Authigenic Mineralization: These are unique types of casts and molds. Under the right circumstances the body will act like a nucleus for the minerals to form a nodule. If this process occurs soon after death then very detailed, three-dimensional fossils can be preserved.

Replacement & Recrystallization: The replacement process occurs whenever the bone, shell, or skin of an organism is replaced with another mineral. This shift can happen so subtly that microscopic details can be preserved despite the loss of the original specimen.
And a shell can be recrystallized when the skeletal compounds are still present, but in a different form of crystal.

Adpression: Compression fossils, such as fossilized ferns, are the product of chemical reduction of the organic molecules. More often then not all that is left behind is the mere impression of the organism in the rock -- an impression fossil. Other times the compression and impression occurs together. For example, when the rock is broken open, the phytoleim will often be attached to one part (compression), whereas the counterpart will just be an impression. This is called adpression.

Carbonization: The soft tissues of organisms are mainly made up of organic carbon compounds. Throughout the diagensis process and under set conditions a thin carbon, or carbonaceous, film remains. This creates a silhouette of the original creature.

Bioimmuration: This type of preservation is perhaps the least known. Essentially bioimmuration is the product of organic overgrowth on sessile creatures. Soft-bodied creatures have a possibility of being preserved if they are overgrown by another organism with a mineralized skeleton. Bioimmured fossils are visible on the attachment areas of the overgrowing organisms as natural molds which sometimes are filled by diagenetic mineral growth to create a natural cast.

Just want to clear a few things up here.

Blood Bowl write up is scrapped. I don't wanna do it anymore. It was going to be really bad anyway.

Age of Neo is slowly finding itself in the scrapyard too. Maybe I'll get motivated to do something with it. As of right now, this was the biggest waste of everyone's time, by far.

I'm questioning why I asked to take the mod spot at Misc Gaming. I don't think I failed this time around which is probably pretty good. I had a project and I did it. I'm satisfied with my effort.


I did not need 2 months. I kind of wish I asked for just 1. That would have been fine, but now I'm expected to do something in the next month and I have absolutely nothing. Cap's Caverns is winding down and Concentration is AWOL.


My ideas here are an absolute mess and the people I don't like here are getting more and more on my nerves. I should have just stayed away.

The site is doing better and the direction it is going doesn't really have room for me. I don't play games anymore and I don't think I have the enthusiasm for any more revivals.

Yet I log back in, day after day, hoping I'd fit in somewhere that obviously doesn't need me and I compensate with going into niche forms and create a bunch of nonsense I don't see through to the end.

I promise Cap's Cavern will get to an end. I promise you that. I cannot promise anything with Age of Neo. I cannot promise you anything else will come. I also can't promise I'll try to leave the site again since I'm just so...sad here.

Had a new 4kUtraHD tv delivered today to cooperate with my Xbox One S. It'll take a bit of research and configuration to find what HDMI input the manufacturer choses for 4k Gaming. Hopefully it's in the instruction book, but I doubt it. They seem to always cloud these matters in a fog of mystery...lol.

After much thought, I've decided that I would be the worst person to date, possibly even in the entire universe.
Even though it will never happen due to severe social anxiety and I'm not the pretty or desirable in any way. I also have Asperger's, GORD and dairy and egg Intolerances, I have found that if there was a chance of no one being out and we were at a restaurant, I wouldn't be able to eat a damn thing! Lol!

If you think you have a terrible existence maybe this could cheer you up ^_^
