70-year-old flight attendant!!
Do you always think that flight attendants are all young? If you ever get on the flight of Continental Airlines route from Newark to Hong Kong, you will possibly get to know a 70-year-old flight attendant, Norma Heape, who service as an international service manager.
When Norma Heape started working as a "hostess'' with Continental Airlines in 1957, she had to sign an agreement pledging to retire either when she got married or when she turned 32.
Fifty years later, jet engines have replaced propellers, the industry has weathered repeated bankruptcies and mergers, Continental has grown from a domestic carrier into an international airline — and flight attendants no longer have to sign that silly pledge.
But one thing hasn't changed. Norma Heape is still flying.

Icadyptes salasi - Tropical giant penguin discovered
A giant penguin that preferred the tropics to the southern oceans has been discovered by a team of scientists.
The fossilised remains of the animal, which lived some 36 million years ago, were found in what is today Peru.
At 1.5m (5ft) tall, the penguin looked quite different from its modern-day cousins, a report in PNAS journal says.
It had a long protracted skull and what its discoverers are describing as a grossly elongated beak that was spear-like in appearance.
The Icadyptes salasi penguin would dwarf all the penguins who walk the planet today.
