*** Dinosaur named for rock star

(AP) - Paleontologists have discovered a dinosaur with strange,
hooked teeth and named the vicious creature after rock star Mark
Knopfler. The scientists said they chose the guitarist and
songwriter because they listened to a lot of the group's music while
digging under the hot tropical sun on the island of Madagascar. The
bones of the German shepherd sized dinosaur were discovered by a
team of researchers led by University of Utah paleontologist Scott
Sampson. The island off the southeastern coast of Africa already has
yielded some extraordinary fossil finds, but the latest discovery
appears unique in the dinosaur world of the late Cretaceous period,
about 65 million to 70 million years ago. The dinosaur, christened
Masiakasaurus knopfleri (pronounced mah-SHEE-kah-sawr-us
nawp-FLAIR-ee), appears to be related to other fossils found in
Argentina and India, suggesting that Madagascar was connected to the
ancient "supercontinent" of Gondwana for longer than previously
believed. "This really supports the whole Gondwana concept, that
Madagascar drifted away from India and also from Africa," said
Sankar Chatterjee of Texas Tech, an expert in dinosaur evolution.
