Flamingos form a flamingo, in an aerial photo in this month's National Geographic. How did they get them to do that?

Many paths: Unprecedented Muslim call for peace with Christians:

LONDON, Oct 11 (Reuters) - More than 130 Muslim scholars from around the globe called on Thursday for peace and understanding between Islam and Christianity, saying "the very survival of the world itself is perhaps at stake".

In an unprecedented letter to Pope Benedict and other Christian leaders, 138 Muslim scholars said finding common ground between the world's biggest faiths was not simply a matter for polite dialogue between religious leaders.

"If Muslims and Christians are not at peace, the world cannot be at peace. With the terrible weaponry of the modern world; with Muslims and Christians intertwined everywhere as never before, no side can unilaterally win a conflict between more than half of the world's inhabitants," the scholars wrote.

"Our common future is at stake. The very survival of the world itself is perhaps at stake," they wrote, adding that Islam and Christianity already agreed that love of God and neighbour were the two most important commandments of their faiths.

There's probably something there that matches your energy level.

You might want to peek at the Dallas News Cowboys Blog to see what they're saying about "us."

I'll take Brady over Romo.

Found: Seven out of eight Dallas News sportswriters pick the Pats.
