Huffington Post: HHS Uncertain Whether Staff Will Face Furloughs Due To Sequestration

Posted: 05 Mar 2013 09:13 AM PST

WASHINGTON -- As workers across the federal government begin to receive furlough notices due to the deep budget cuts known as sequestration, the Department of Health and Human Services is one of the agencies that is still figuring out if it can absorb the reductions without making staff take unpaid leave.

"HHS is working to implement the sequester reductions in a way that tries to minimize the negative impacts on HHS's mission," agency spokesman Bill Hall told The Huffington Post on Tuesday. "We do not have final plans or estimates of the impacts on HHS employees at this time, but we continue to evaluate the situation and have made no determinations at this point as to whether we will need to implement any furloughs."

Why did Neanderthals become extinct? Scientists have offered a variety of theories, from climate change and cataclysmic volcanic eruptions to interbreeding with modern humans.

But a new study puts at least some of the blame on bunnies. Or, to be more specific, on Neanderthals' apparent inability to exploit the "high-biomass prey resource" of rabbits when prehistoric deer and other large prey mammals became scarce on the Iberian Peninsula.

Dr. John Fa of Britain's Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust presented the theory in a study titled "Rabbits and Hominin Survival in Iberia," which was published online on Feb. 17 in the Journal of Human Evolution:
