  • Comcast Nbcuniversal to Acquire Remaining 49% Stake in Universal Studios Japan
    COMCAST NBCUNIVERSAL TO ACQUIRE REMAINING 49% STAKE IN UNIVERSAL STUDIOS JAPAN Signals Strong Future for Universal Studios Japan and for Universal in Asia ORLANDO (Feb. 28, 2017) Comcast NBCUniversal announced today that it agreed to purchase 49 percent ownership of Universal Studios Japan (USJ) from its current partners, including Goldman Sachs, former USJ Chief Executive Officer Glenn Gumpel, Asian private-equity firm MBK Partners and U.S. hedge fund Owl Creek Asset Management. The purchase price for this transaction is ¥254.8 billion (US$2.3 billion), valuing USJ at ¥840 billion (US$7.4 billion), including the assumption of USJ net debt. Upon completion of the transaction, Comcast NBCUniversal will own 100 percent of the theme park destination. The acquisition further demonstrates Comcast NBCUniversal’s confidence in the future growth of Universal Studios Japan and the company’s strong interest in the Asian market – the company is also building a theme park destination in Beijing and licenses a theme park in Singapore. Universal Studios Japan opened in 2001 as a Japanese company with a license from NBCUniversal. It has seen strong growth in popularity, attendance and revenue. It features classic Universal attractions as well as attractions and shows specifically designed for the Asian market. USJ opened the hugely popular, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter themed area in 2014. It opened the Flying Dinosaur roller coaster last year, introducing a new generation of coaster experience. Later this year, it will open Minion Park, the world’s largest Minion-themed area – featuring a heartwarming and hilarious 3D ride, shops – and more.

  • Fossils: When Dinosaurs Took to the Skies
    Earth and Space Sciences Fossils: When dinosaurs took to the skies Earth scientists use rocks and fossils to obtain clues about the environment that existed many millions of years ago. Just recently, some scientists made a discovery about a four-winged feathered dino-bird! In this lesson you will investigate the following: • What are the different classes of rocks? • Why do earth scientists use the geological time scale? • How are fossils made? • What was it like to live with dinosaurs? It’s time to spread your wings and soar back into the distant past! This is a print version of an interactive online lesson. To sign up for the real thing or for curriculum details about the lesson go to www.cosmosforschools.com Introduction: Fossils The closest living relation to the dinosaurs could be your budgerigar! We’ve long known that birds evolved from dinosaurs, but a new discovery – the fossil of a feathered flying dinosaur in rocks in a remote part of China – tells us more than we have ever known about how dinosaurs and early birds took to the skies. The newly discovered dinosaur is called Changyuraptor yangi. It was the size of a large eagle, weighing roughly 4 kilograms and measuring about 1.3 metres from snout to tail. And it had not two, but four wings and a long plumed tail. So well preserved were the feathers of the flying dinosaur's tail that scientists could work out how it was used in flight. They believe that it allowed the dinosaurs to adjust their pitch – that is, whether they were flying nose up or nose down – as well as to slow their speed and help them land safely.

Olsen Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University Palisades, NY 10968 [email protected] 2017 Cover image, Coelophysis and trithelodont by Larry Felder, from the book In the Presence of Dinosaurs, by John Colagrande and Larry Felder, copyright 2000, TIME/LIFE Books, used with permission of the artist. Fire is from advancing CAMP lava flows. 2 ABSTRACT The Connecticut Valley Rift Basin is one of the best places in the world to see the record of the environmental and biological events that resulted from a mass extinction 202 million years ago that led to 136 million years of dinosaur ecological dominance. The extinction was tied to extremely high CO2 and sulfur aerosols spewed out some of the largest volcanic eruptions in Earth history. We will examine excellent exposures of lavas from the eruptions that caused the extinction and interbedded and overlying lake and lake margin sediments that reveal the exag- gerated climate swings that preserved diverse fish species and extraordinarily abundant dinosaur footprints from the recovery from the mass-extinction and consequent dinosaurian dominance.
