According to sciencedaily.com, in a recent study conducted on the populations of wild cats, the number of lions and cougars killed by hunters over the past 15 to 25 years in Africa and the western United States was analyzed. After the study it was concluded that these animals’ populations are steadily decreasing. Sport hunting is what a lot of the time has been taking place among these beautiful beasts of nature, and Lion and cougar populations have suffered the greatest decline in African countries and U.S. states where sport hunting has been most intense over the past 25 years. It is understandable that some control needs to be taking place so that life stock can survive, but many people are taking this way too far.
Scientifically-based strategies that benefit hunters, livestock owners and conservationists need to be developed soon! Maintaining a healthy population of them will soon be a big big issue! The need for new approaches to protect humans and livestock and to manage sport hunting without endangering these vulnerable species is clear and evident.
I personally think it's so sad that people are "sporting" away just another of the worlds species. It makes me wonder if in 100 years animals will even exist!! This is so sad that people actually consider this crap a sport! It's not like they're killing for the meat or anything else useful for that matter! NO, they kill for the fun of it. Now I understand completely that some control of these animals needs to take place in rural areas or in places where many animals were killed, but this is ridiculous I love wild cats and it's so sad that soon they may just be another extinct species thanks to mans stupidity.

Lohan seeks plea deal
So everyone's heard about this $2,500 necklace that Lindsay supposedly stole...well this case has been going on for quite some time now with Lohan insisting that she took it by accident and cameras telling a different story. Now, according to buffalonews.com, Lohan seeks a plea deal instead of just going through with the normal court proceedings. A court date has not currently been set yet for her, but her pre trial hearing will be May 11. She told a source close to her that she hopes everything will be resolved before then though.
Well if you want my honest opinion I think she didn't steel the necklace. I mean this chick would have to be completely brain dead stupid to do something like that! She knew this was a top notch jewelry store, therefore there would be security cameras....and she also knew that it was all eyes on her (ms. famous celebrity) the WHOLE time she was there! So why would she steal it? She has 2 and a half grand in her back pocket anyway probably so it's not like she didn't have the money for it! That money to her is like us having five bucks come on why would she NEED to steal it! And she walked out casually with it I thought when I saw the video. If she were stealing it, I think she would have like put it in her purse of pocket or something verses just walking out with it in her hand! It looked like a mistake to me.
On the other hand you never know, this chick's crazy! I would not put it past her to steal anything! She's always being an immature little B**** that needs to grow up, and she probably WOULD steel given the opportunity...so it's a tough one....I don't know what do you guys think??Monday, April 18, 2011
Brazilian Bikini wax...FOR MEN! how perplexing right???
According to huffingtonpost.com, 'Bliss Spa' is now offering an amazing deal of a complete "Ultimate He Wax" for a steel of $120!! A.K.A. a bikini wax for men......wow.....awkward.....This wax takes it ALL off! This deal seems to be really popular. I guess there are a lot of guys out there that don't care much for manly hairiness all over the place. Instead these men prefer ultimate smoothness!
Well....first of all.... I don't think everyone should be jumping to mean and unfair conclusions about this sale being "completely gay" and all those men being "totally homosexual". Because it's THEIR deal and THEIR business! Who cares if guys don't want to be hairy? That's their own choice, they can do what they want with their bodies. Granted I do think it's definitely weird that a guy would want that excruciating pain...and would even CARE for that matter about being hairy...but HEY it's their choice, their call.

Man kills his beloved then takes his own life
According to gazette.com, early yesterday morning two lives were taken by the same man in Pueblo County. 42 year old Roseanna A. Vigil died of multiple gunshot wounds to her chest area...this was the conclusion of Pueblo County Coroner James Kramer. The man who pulled the trigger? Well it was the man who loved Roseanna to the point of”obsession", 37 year old Brian John Wiersema. He then proceeded to take his own life by driving off a 240-foot ravine near the Royal Gorge, being not able to survive without her.
An investigation is still taking place, but the general idea the police have from neighbors and co-workers of the two, is that a quarrel took place between the two Saturday night that ended in extreme tragedy. No one yet knows exactly WHAT was discussed during this fight, but is was enough to spiral the situation out of control and end in death for Vigil. This whole situation is somewhat of a shocker due to the fact that Brian was completely in love with Roseanna. So whatever did transpire that night that led to Brian murdering his loved one, remains a mystery.
Well this makes me sick, what probably happened is this woman wanted to break up with this obsessed weirdo, and he couldn't take it and went with the policy of "if I can't have her no one can". Yet if he truly did love her, he would have wanted her to live and be happy even if it WASN'T with HIM!!! Yet he most likely killed her so that no one could have her, and then killed himself because he "loved" her to much to be able to live without her. May be if he wouldn't have been so crazy they could have worked things out and made it through without having to DIE!!! But whatever, just goes to show you pick your men wisely. Make sure your boyfriend's not going to kill you if you get in a fight!

Charlie Sheen "layed an egg" (bombed it)
So good old Charlie's been in the news A LOT lately it seems. One thing's for sure, things aren't the same at all in Sheen's career. According to Nationalenguirer.com, Charlie's once appreciative and loving fans booed him off the stage at the Detroit preem. of his "delusional tour". With 4700 seats filled and eagerly awaiting Charlie, thunderous applause broke out upon his arrival. Things seemed to START OFF good.
Yet once Charlie began a warm up comic act, fans were apparently very disappointed with the "tired shtick", and soon began to boo. An odd series of random clips were then shown on giant monitors. Charlie was again booed, as the crowd began getting angrier. Then around 9 p.m. the 'actual' show started apparently and was worse yet. The crowd went livid, demanding their money back. Charlie then left the stage rubbing it in the crowds’ face that it was too late he already had their money.....so wow....nice one Charlie.
Okay, well let me just start off by saying I love Charlie Sheen, I think he's an amazing actor that has so much potential. Charlie Sheen has always made me laugh...so why is he throwing everything away?? What the %$#@ has happened to the guy:( ?? If he's not going to take a performance seriously, and just half shit it, then what does he EXPECT his crowd to do?!! I would have done the exact same thing. He's disappointed a lot of people I think it's fair to say. In my opinion he should get it the F together again because this guy's funny, he just needs to stop being so stupid.

New species in Papua New Guinea
According to treehugger.com, Papua New Guinea is the place to go if you're interested in discovering new, previously unknown species. Researchers back from a two month long exploration of the inner depths of the Papua New Guinea forests, reported that over 200 different species were recorded that were previously unknown to science and the world. Dozens of new frog species, nine new plants, two new mammals, and nearly 100 new insects, were some of the amazing discoveries recorded from the exploration.
The Tube-nosed fruit bat (in picture above), Pink-eyed katydids, carnivorous plants, and a unique species of tree-dwelling ants were among SOME of the newly discovered animals. The Scientists suggest that further explorations into the depths of the mysterious forests of Papua New Guinea will uncover even MORE undiscovered species. These discoveries are so important to the knowledge of wild life biologists and scientists around the world. These new findings increase scientist’s knowledge of the wildlife of the world in general, and unlock many other possibilities for new species.
I admire the scientists who are in the wild uncovering these mysteriouse new animals. When they discover new species like this, it could give hints and information on important issues and debates such as theorys of evolution. These discoveries also could conclude that new species are being CREATED. I think these new discovered animals are awesome, and I hope there will be more.

Exerciseing Reversing aging?!
According to AOL news, a breakthrough and groundbreaking study was recently conducted concluding that people who exercise REALLY DO have longer and happier lives and are physically active at an older age than "couch potatoes". You'll even stay away from wrinkles and grey hair longer if you commonly exercise. How was this study conducted? As always, with mice.
Two groups of mice were used in this experiment that were both genetically engineered to prematurely age. The first group of mice were placed in a cage where they did nothing but lay around and eat for a few months. While the other group of mice exercised and ran on mini treadmills three times a week for the duration of the months. The results were staggering! We already knew that with good exercise, you're healthier, live longer, and are in better shape, but this study really showed the systemic effects of exercise and physical therapy that's available to most people if they got off the couch and just made an effort a LITTLE MORE! The mice who worked out had a much greater running capacity, their ORGANS were healthier and functioned much better (not only the muscles and heart but the brain, gonads, and kidneys), their fur was much glossier and thick, EVERY organ of those mice who exercised was healthier. These mice lived months longer than the other group (which in comparison to a human would be like living YEARS longer).
I think this study shows A LOT! We could learn so much from these results, and help create a healthier society. Today's typical American is obese and there are so many different health related issues in today’s world, that could be prevented with just a little exercise and a better diet. This really could save lives.
