Indian Naked Chimp Looks Too Human-AOLNews

It's been said that humans are just naked apes.

And if you don't think that's true, just take a look at Guru, a hairless 20-year-old chimpanzee who looks a lot like a bronze statue of a human come to life.

Guru has become a star at India's Mysore Zoo, where crowds gather each day to gawk at the naked wonder.

Guru, who was rescued from a circus in 2003, lost all his hair to alopecia, a condition that also affects humans. He's been undergoing treatment, but so far nothing has helped him grow hair.

And that may not matter.

"Everybody wants to see his biceps and triceps," zoo veterinarian Suresh Kumar told London's Daily Telegraph. "He looks like a human being sitting naked in front of you. So it looks amazing."

And if you think he looks strange to us ... imagine what we must look like to Guru and other chimps.

"We must look that way to them by default," said ape expert Dr. Rob Shumaker, vice president of life sciences at the Indianapolis Zoo. "We must look very unusual to chimpanzees."

But just as chimpanzees learn to deal with hairless humans, they're also very accepting of hairless chimps. In fact, they seem far more accepting of physical differences than we do.
"I've found no evidence that chimps or any other apes treat individuals differently based on appearance in any way," Shumaker said.

Chimps have a reputation for being violent or aggressive, but Shumaker says that's a little unfair.

"Chimps can be sympathetic or even empathetic with other chimpanzees," he said. Chimps and other apes can even accept members of their social groups who have glaring disabilities.

Shumaker recalled working with an orangutan that suffered from a neurological disorder that set her apart, and slowed her down -- but the other orangutans treated her no differently because of it.

"They really judged her on her personality as far as we can tell," he said. "We certainly could do better in that regard as a species."

Yahoo! on Sale - re-published

It was not very long back when we heard a lot in News about MicroSoft and Yahoo deal, how MS was trying and in the last Yahoo! survived the bid.

How are things different then before is->previously it was MicroSoft after Yahoo but

this time Yahoo is asking Microsoft to buy Yahoo!, So this time Yahoo is on sale for real

Jerry Yang, CEO of Yahoo, speaking at the Web 2.0 Summit Wednesday in San Francisco, essentially hung a "For Sale By Owner" sign in the window of his business, suggesting that Microsoft might be a good candidate to purchase his company.

It was in news lately about the deal yahoo was trying with Google about Web advertising,but the talk failed and the only best option for Yahoo! now is MicroSoft
"I don't think that is a bad idea at all, at the right price whatever that price is. We're willing to sell the company," said Yang.

What Yahoo denied then was Microsoft offer of $33 per share and now Yahoo stock is hovering $14 . This shows when the company was trying to increase their revenue,how hard recession has hit it

If you have e-mail ids @yahoo.com like me, you should be now concerned about what is going to happen to our Yahoo!

Yahoo! Auctions are empty or say Yahoo have run out of Auctions and now Yahoo is ready to go in any rate.

As before Yahoo had its say for a value not Yahoo is ready for whatever value it gets.

Recession,is it hurting you? Not very sure yet but it is hurting big fish in pond, Yesterday it was Circuit City Closeout Sale and now Yahoo!

Yahoo Chat closes on December 21st 2011
