Dunham's Story

A lesson to be found here somehow. http://www.tampabay.com/news/environment/wildlife/article1022653.ece About 100 dolphins and whales get stranded each year in the southeastern United States. Most die quickly or end up in aquariums. Only a handful get a second crack at freedom, and it's always a risk. Dunham's chance came Tuesday morning, when proud and excited handlers released him off the Dunedin Causeway, carrying a radio collar so they could follow him in boats and monitor his progress. He seemed a little stiff after a long van ride the night before, but he quickly picked up the pace and headed south. Dunham's handlers beamed as the dolphin returned to nature. A few hours later, nature would break their hearts.

Happy Earth Day!

Ira Einhorn viciously killed his girlfriend, Holly Maddux, in 1977. He was later to be known as the Unicorn killer. After his arrest, many people of the elite rushed to his defense. They all testified that Ira was a kind and wonderful man. Ira’s lawyer, Arlen Specter, was somehow able to get Ira free on bond for only $40,000. (Areln Specter happens to be the current Republican Senator from Pennsylvania.) Well, Ira skipped bond and fled. He was later found in 1997 to be living in France with his new girlfriend. After years of negotiation the US was finally able to get Ira extradited back to the United States. http://www.thebulletin.us/articles/2009/04/22/top_stories/doc49eebca59bdb3868756314.txt Watch the video to learn The Rest of the Story. And Happy Earth Day!

Polar Bear attacks German Woman!

Another woman was a victim of violence. It seems that a male polar bear attacked an innocent woman in Germany. She jumped into the bear enclosure at the zoo in hopes with communing with these wonderful animals. Without warning, one of the bears bit her on the arms and legs. Police still do not have a motive for the attack. It could be that the bear was angry over humans for causing global warming. Another theory is that the bear mistook her for a walrus or a whale. Fortunately, the woman is expected to recover. Although she may receive a ticket for feeding the zoo animals. Below is video of the heroic rescue. She bear-ly survived.
