And here is Pezosiren portelli, the “walking manatee,” a fascinating basal sirenian from around 50 million years ago. It was found in Jamaica and formally described in 2001. You can easily see the family resemblance!

LOL! I used to work on the Cisco TAC. I have supported Cisco Pix firewalls and VPN on Cisco IOS devices (PIX & IOS, yes, it was a LONG time ago). I've been lucky enough that the veins eventually do start to look normal again if you stop supporting and configuring IPSec VPN (SSL VPN doesn't have the same effect).
LOL!

Arguably, the rarest artifact in the Pioneer Woman Museum is an unassuming piece of wood, split in two. It was found by woodcutters on George Nieman's Riverby Ranch north of Ponca City in 1962.
What makes it so rare and unique is that it is an example of a Witness Blaze, which is when a surveyor takes advantage of a natural feature to mark the coordinates of a specific location, often because they have used up or lack their usual posts. This tree was marked by government surveyors in 1890 who were mapping out the Cherokee Outlet in preparation for the 1893 Land Run. Over time, the tree grew around and over the original marker, concealing it from view until it just happened to be cut down and broken open in a fashion which exposed it in 1962.
Though some of it was not preserved, "R2E" marks it as being 2 township ranges east of the principle meridian, while "S14" designates it as being Section 14 out of the 36 sections within the township.
That the marker remained affixed was improbable. That the tree preserved it was unlikely. That it was revealed when the tree was trimmed or cut down was an absolute fluke. That the workers recognized its historical importance was downright miraculous. Each step along the path which lead it to the Museum was exponentially less likely than the last. It may not look like much, but it's pretty special indeed.

This is the Powhatan jail in Powhatan, Arkansas. It held prisoners for 57 years and it closed in the 1920s. After that, it was used as a canning kitchen, commercial garage, and a honey processing plant.
Interesting fact: In 1897, county officials ordered that the jail be remodeled. Up until then, the prisoners were given straw beds and buckets for bathrooms. After the remodel, they were given hammocks, proper bathrooms, and sinks.
Meals for prisoners were brought to them by their own families or they purchased them from a local kitchen.

When reactivated for the final time in the 1980s the Iowa Class battleships had no real threat of surface to surface gun fire against other ships. However, their ability to strike at targets was augmented with the addition of Harpoon anti-ship missiles and Tomahawk cruise missiles.
To make the ships capable of carrying these updates changes to the ships were made. Four of the secondary dual purpose 5-inch gun mounts were removed. A missile deck was constructed to mount the armored box launchers for the tomahawks as well. These were also known as ABLs.
