Girls Goat Zoo Walk

Girls goat zoo walk- Everything went according to plan for two pajama-clad stepsisters who took a goat they'd freed from a Minnesota zoo for a late-night walk. Until they told the Mankato police officer who stopped them about 11:30 p.m. Saturday that the animal lived in their bedroom closet.

The stepsisters, ages 6 and 7, said they regularly took the goat out for late-night walks because Dad didn't know their mother had bought it two weeks earlier.
The unconvinced officer walked the girls home, where their parents explained they'd attended a birthday party at the Sibley Park Zoo earlier that day. That's when they hatched a plan to take one of the goats home.
The Free Press (http://bit.ly/qB0qd4) says police don't know how the girls freed the goat, which was returned to the zoo.

Taiwan HIV-infected Organs

 
Taiwan hiv-infected organs- One of Taiwan's best regarded hospitals said HIV-infected organs were mistakenly transplanted into five patients after a hospital staffer misheard the donor's test results by telephone.
The five are now being treated with anti-AIDS drugs, an official at National Taiwan University Hospital in Taipei said Monday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because she is not authorized to deal with the media.
The hospital said on its website over the weekend the mistake occurred because a transplant staffer believed he heard the English word "non-reactive" on the donor's standard HIV test, while the word "reactive" was actually given.
The information on the test result was given over the telephone and was not double-checked, as required by standard procedures, the hospital statement said.
"We deeply apologize for the mistake," the hospital said.
The Health Department will look into the mistake and decide on possible penalties for NTUH, department official Shih Chung-liang said. If negligence was found to have caused the blunder, Shih said the hospital may have to suspend its transplant programs for up to a year in addition to unspecified fines.
The donor was a 37-year-old man who fell into a coma on Aug. 24 and his heart, liver, lungs and two kidneys were transplanted to five patients on the same day. NTUH said it transplanted four organs and the heart transplant was conducted at another hospital.
The donor's mother, who was not identified, told cable news stations that she felt terrible about the transplants and had not been aware of her son's ailment. She said he died after "falling from a high spot," without providing details.
Yao Ke-wu, who heads the health department of Hsinchu city, where the donor resided, decried the NTUH transplants as "appalling negligence."
He said NTUH staffers could have avoided the mistake by asking his department about the donor's medical history in advance and deplored that such inquiries were not mandatory in Taiwan.
Yao said the five organ receivers will very likely contract HIV and their treatment will be complicated because they also have to take medication to avoid rejection of the new organs.
The five recipients are Taiwanese. NTUH is among about a dozen well-equipped and highly-respected Taiwanese hospitals offering organ transplants.
There are also concerns among the physicians and nurses who conducted the transplants that they too may contract HIV. Medical staffers routinely take protections against bodily fluids during surgeries, but some experts also warned needle and other accidential cuts could still expose them to HIV.
Lee Nan-yao, a physician with the National Chengkung University Hospital, which performed the heart transplant, told the United Daily News that some physicians and nurses who had conducted the transplant "were depressed, and on the verge of panic."

The Amy Winehouse Rehab singer was known for her public struggles with drugs and alcohol, Amy Winehouse goes to rehab , and died alone in her bed , Amy Winehouse dies alone in bed , shortly after returning from a treatment facility. British retro-soul singer Amy Jade Winehouse was found dead in her home in Camden, north London on , Saturday, July 23, 2011. This was really a shocking news as she was only 27-year-old. Her death was confirmed by the Metropolitan Police, after the London Ambulance Service was called to the singer’s flat just before 4pm Saturday BST. A body, believed to be that of singer Amy Winehouse, is removed from her home following her death. The cause of death is as yet unknown but the Grammy Award winner Amy Winehouse, the soul-jazz diva whose self-destructive habits overshadowed a distinctive musical talent, had checked out of a treatment center a month ago.A really few artists summed up their own career in a single song  and a single line as well as Amy Winehouse.”They tried to make me go to rehab,” she sang on her world-conquering 2006 single, “Rehab.” ”I said ‘No, no no.’” Occasionally, she said yes, but to no avail: repeated stints in hospitals and clinics couldn’t stop alcohol and drugs scuttling the career of a singer whose distinctive voice, rich mix of influences and heart-on-her sleeve sensibility seemed to promise great things. In her short lifetime, Winehouse too often made headlines because of drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, destructive relationships and abortive performances. But it’s her small but powerful body of recorded music that will be her legacy.

The London Ambulance Service said Winehouse had died before crews arrived at the house in leafy Camden Square. The cause of death was not immediately known.
The singer’s body was taken from her home by private ambulance to a London mortuary where post-mortem examinations were to be carried out either Sunday or Monday. Police said in a statement no arrests had been made in connection with her death. It was not a complete surprise, but the news was still a huge shock for millions around the world. The size of Winehouse’s appeal was reflected in the extraordinary range of people paying tribute as they heard the news, from Demi Moore, who tweeted “Truly sad news … May her troubled soul find peace” to chef Jamie Oliver, who wrote “such a waste, raw talent” on the social networking site.

West Memphis Three

West Memphis three- The West Memphis Three are the three young men who were tried and convicted of the murders of three boys in West Memphis, Arkansas on May 5, 1993. During the trial, the prosecution put forth the idea that the only purported motive in the case was that the slayings were part of a Satanic ritual.

Damien Echols was sentenced to death, Jessie Misskelley, Jr. was sentenced to life imprisonment plus two 20-year sentences, and Jason Baldwin was sentenced to life imprisonment.
In July 2007, new forensic evidence was presented in the case, including evidence that none of the DNA collected at the crime scene matched the defendants, but did match Terry Hobbs, the stepfather of one of the victims, as well as a friend of Hobbs' whom he had been with on the day of the murders. The status report jointly issued by the State and the Defense team on July 17, 2007 states, "Although most of the genetic material recovered from the scene was attributable to the victims of the offenses, some of it cannot be attributed to either the victims or the defendants." On October 29, 2007, the defense filed a Second Amended Writ of Habeas Corpus, outlining the new evidence.
In September 2008, Judge David Burnett of the Circuit Court denied Echols' application for a hearing on the new DNA evidence. The Arkansas Supreme Court heard oral argument on Burnett's decision on September 30, 2010.

Capybara Seen in California

Capybara seen in california- A giant South American rodent weighing at least 100 pounds (45 kgs) was spotted at a waste-water treatment facility in California recently before disappearing in the brush, according to a wildlife official. The animal, which was identified as a capybara, is the world’s largest rodent and feeds on vegetation. “If you think a giant guinea pig is cute, then you probably would like it,” said Todd Tognazzini, of the California Department of Fish and Game. The capybara is believed to be an escaped pet, Tognazzini said.
It was last seen about two weeks ago at a waste-water treatment facility in Paso Robles, 175 miles northwest of Los Angeles, he said. An employee at the plant took photos of the animal as it crawled out of a pond. The capybara’s South American habitat ranges from Panama to northeast Argentina, east of the Andes, according to a description on the website of the San Francisco Zoo. The animal spotted near the Salinas River and a hot spring, a watery habitat that in some ways resembles the regions where capybaras live in South America, Tognazzini said.
A capybara can hold its breath under water for up to five minutes, and the animal spends much of its roughly four-year lifespan near the water, he said. The latest spotting of the capybara comes two years after another sighting of the animal a mile away. Officials believe it was the same animal last seen at the waste-water treatment facility in Paso Robles, and that there are no other capybaras in the area.
In California, the capybara cannot be held as a pet without a special permit. But that does not mean that some people do not keep them as illegal pets. “The Internet is fraught with examples of people scratching them on the belly and thinking they’re cute and making pets of them,” Tognazzini said. The California Department of Fish and Game do not view the animal as dangerous.

+Preventing Children's Sports Injuries

Preventing Sports Injuries in Your Young Athlete



Preventing children's sports injuries- Balls. Bats. Bruises. Sports injuries are common in young athletes. “It’s important to know what to look out for in which sport to protect against injury,” says Shelley Street, M.D., primary care sports medicine specialist, Children’s Hospital of Michigan. The following tips can help you and your children get into a game safely this spring.
Soccer
Wear shin guards for every practice and every game. Choose shoes with molded cleats or ribbed soles. Ask your child’s doctor and coach whether your child can safely “head” the ball. Heading correctly can prevent head and neck injury. Make sure to use equipment that lowers injury risk, such as synthetic waterproof balls, anchored goals, and padded goalposts.
 
Baseball/Softball
Pitchers should throw only six innings per week. Catchers should wear helmets, masks, and chest-and-neck protectors. Children who are batting need to wear a helmet. Safe equipment includes breakaway bases and softer balls.
Volleyball
Use knee pads, and wear lightweight shoes with strong support for ankles and arches. “Call” the ball to reduce collisions. To prevent overturning the net, never grab it or hang on to the supports. Any wires that hold up the net should be covered with soft material. Before playing, check outside courts for glass or other sharp objects.
When Injuries Happen



 “No matter what the sport, some of the most common injuries are sprains, strains, or bruises,” says Dr. Street. The best treatment is easy to remember: “RICE.” Take these steps as soon as possible: Rest the injured area for at least 48 hours. Ice the injured area, 20 minutes at a time, with a cold pack or ice bag. Compress an injured ankle, knee, or wrist with an elastic wrap. Elevate the injured area above the level of the heart.  
Shelley Street, M.D.

If your child has an obvious fracture; a dislocated joint; unrelieved swelling; or severe, continuing pain, contact your child’s doctor immediately.
For an appointment at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan, where specialists hold children’s hands and pediatric experts are always ready, call 313-745-KIDS (5437) or 888-DMC-2500.

Boardwalks Across America

Boardwalks Across America- For Americans, boardwalks across America are really good summer dreams as in American history, boardwalks are the summertime place to go. Down on the boardwalk, out on the pier, along the riverbank; whatever you call it, it means sun, fun and plenty of summertime memories. Whether you seek the thrills and chills of white-knuckled wooden roller coasters rides and tilt-a-whirls, the delectable tastes of saltwater taffy at sunset and boardwalk fries or simply experiencing kids with dogs racing along weathered walkways.
James Lilliefors, author of “America’s Boardwalks, From Coney Island to California,” says boardwalks have always been “bright, alluring, loud, lucrative and very American.” Still, as Park World magazine reported in 2007, “In the 1920s there were more than 1,500 authentic seaside amusement parks in the United States, today there are less than two dozen.”
Lets take a look at some of America's great boardwalks.
 Boardwalks Across America: Atlantic City, N.J.
The Atlantic City boardwalk is the first of its kind in the U.S., and for the majority of the 20th century has served as a stage for the latest inventions and oddities. What started as a way to get sand off visitors’ feet and keep it out of the beachfront hotel lobbies has grown into the Atlantic City Boardwalk, the godfather of American boardwalks. America’s first boardwalk was actually a temporary structure constructed in 1870 to keep the sand off Atlantic City’s beachfront hotel carpets. But this boardwalk stretches four miles and has shops, hotels, casinos, food stands and arcades on its street side; a quick turn provides views of the beach and the powerful majesty of the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors also can enjoy a ride in a two-person rolling wicker chair, a means of transportation introduced in 1887.Each year brings the Thunder Over the Boardwalk air show; on Aug. 17, this year’s show features the Air Force Thunderbirds and Army Golden Knights.
