Now we're on the human-neanderthal interbreeding thing again:
http://www.livescience.com/15196-dna-evidence-neanderthals-sex-humans.html
 
... and pondering what red-haired neanderthals looked like:
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/gnxp/2011/07/what-did-red-haired-neanderthals-look-like/

... and they were pretty good at making tools, whatever their hair colour:
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/80beats/2008/08/26/neanderthal-tools-were-a-match-for-early-homo-sapiens/comment-page-1/
 
Human-like walking began 3.7 million years ago:

This week we are being told that humans 'crowded out' Neanderthals in Europe:
http://www.artdaily.org/index.asp?int_sec=2&int_new=49462
 
... but the interbreeding theory is still kicking around:
http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2011/07/18/science-neanderthal-human-interbreeding.html

... and early humans may have exploited lava flows for fire purposes:
