The Armada is eternal and forever changing, one must never become stagnate, yet one must never forget where one came from. Moving in circles yet growing closer to the heavens we are the dream of Brahma and the perfect creature that mankind was born from in the Snowy lands. Visions of us are what legends are made of. The wise monkey still laughs in the face of adversity. We are reminded in our darkest hour of a legend;

Jupiter issued a proclamation to all the beasts of the forest and promised a royal reward to the one whose offspring should be deemed the handsomest. The Monkey came with the rest and presented, with all a mother’s tenderness, a flat-nosed, hairless, ill-featured young Monkey as a candidate for the promised reward. A general laugh saluted her on the presentation of her son. She resolutely said, "I know not whether Jupiter will allot the prize to my son, but this I do know, that he is at least in the eyes of me his mother, the dearest, handsomest, and most beautiful of all."

In order to be free you must access your Monkee Mind; you must leave behind the corrupt hue-man hive mentality. Shed your false humanity and swing from the trees. Inside each of us lurks a beast be it Monkee or Panda, Squirrel or Penguin. You must shed your false mortal coil and recognize your Monkee heritage, remember that we are the descendents of Sun Wu Kong, we come from the same lineage as Hanuman, Thoth, we bring knowledge and light, and the hue-man race was born from our genes, we are the founding fathers of the earth itself. The trees are our kingdom and all the world is our domain, there is nothing we cannot do, nothing we cannot out shine. We are the Vanara who dwell in the midst of the forest of Kishkindha.

AFP: Monkeys, like people, prefer mimics: study Monkeys, like people, prefer mimics: study (AFP) – 14 hours ago WASHINGTON —

Imitating others has long been seen as a useful way to explore the world—monkey see, monkey do—but imitation could also make monkeys popular, a study has found. Experts examining the habits of capuchins have discovered the monkeys build closer bonds with human playmates who mimic their behavior than with those who do not. In the study some monkeys were exposed to researchers who imitated their behavior with a small ball; others were paired with researchers whose actions did not. "After the imitation sequence, the monkeys consistently spent more time near the investigator who imitated them than with the investigator who did not," the researchers said. And the same may be true for humans, according to the group’s findings, published in the August 14 edition of the journal Science. "Human beings prefer the behavior of other people who subtly imitate their behavior and other affects," said Duane Alexander, a senior expert at the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), where part of the study was carried out. While humans often assume the body postures, mannerisms or gestures of people they meet although neither party tends to be aware of the imitation, it nonetheless promotes social links, the researchers found. It is hoped the findings "may lead to insights into disorders in which imitation and bonding is impaired such as certain forms of autism," explained Alexander. The study was carried out by researchers at the NIH, the Italian National Research Council and the University of Parma.

 New Delhi, Aug 7 (PTI) Troubled by monkeys in South Avenue where MPs reside, an AIADMK member today demanded a special squad be deployed in the area here to scare away the primates.

Raising the issue during Zero Hour in the Rajya Sabha, K Malaisamy said the monkey menace in the area is a perennial problem and complained that the issue was not addressed seriously by the authorities.

"We are all out to protect forest animals but human life is more important," he said, adding if the government was not forthcoming in taking any action, the passersby would carry guns for self defence.

He suggested that as a temporary measure, a special squad can be placed in that area and the government can convene a meeting of officials and MPs living in that area to find out a long-term solution.
