Reporter Dan Daru Goes on a Cave Adventure



Feature reporter Dan Daru, of KDVR takes viewers in a Cave of the Winds adventure in Manitou Springs in Colorado. In the video, hear Dan talk with companions in the dark as their hard hat lights try to pierce the darkness. Watch how his adventuring group discuss cave formations like stalactites together with their guide. Note that Daru says the cave temperature at 54 degrees Fahrenheit is very comfortable. That's just over 12 degrees Celsius but it may be a bit cold for some who are used to warmer air.

In Israel, a two-thousand-year-old man-made cave has been discovered in the Jordan valley. It holds strange Christian symbols and one that appears to be an ancient Zodiac sign. Read about that discovery in Macrocosm Science Magbook. Unlike the Cave of the Winds, this cave does not have stalactites. It also doesn't have any nasty creatures like those in the movie The Descent.

You can avail of Cave of the Wind Tours with special offers like a free tour on your birthday promo - whatever is available during your visit. It's really a walk-in-the-park. But visitors can opt to experience the tour as it was done more than a hundred years ago, when the cave was discovered - using old-fashioned lanterns!

Bush Shoe Attack Spoofed



The shoe-attack of a reporter on President George W. Bush of the United States during a press conference in Iraq was a surprise (left pic; click to view in the BBC), but it did create a lot of serious reaction where people either took the side of the shoe-throwing reporter or the U.S. There have been calls for the release of the journalist who has gained a kind of celebrity status, but the U.S. government stated that it's up to the Iraqis to determine the fate of the angry reporter. President Bush reportedly simply shrugged off the incident.

On the lighter side of the shoe-throwing, there already have been video spoofs of the press conference event. It just shows that there are still those who view things like these happening like a humorous editorial cartoon, and in this age of the Internet video, there's less of the editorial and more of the humor. Watch this video on this side of the story.
