			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Has anyone seen Christian The Lion with the full story of this beautiful tale where they show that humans can actually bond with wild animals like lions? Aren&#8217;t lions like Christian supposed to be carnivores and would kill us humans if provoked? It was incredible to see that this is not always the case as the owners of Christian the lion, Anthony Bourke and John Rendall, could actually hug their lion pet, after years when it was already released in the wild! That moment was so touching that I ended up shedding a few tears. It was just like watching a dog owner and his or her pet dog making a connection.<span id="more-72"></span></p>
<p>But it should not remove the fact that I think it is still really dangerous to keep a pet like a lion, just like Christian was kept as one by his Australian owners. Ignoring the fact that these people could actually end up being mauled by the animals if they did not know how to handle them, the full story of how others could also innocently be killed by these animals must not have been though of by owners of such wild animals. It is very reckless and endangering other people&#8217;s lives. They should just let these animals like Christian the lion live in the wild and be free, and not caged up like they showed in the full story of that poor lion.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deven Trabosh is putting a new spin to brides for sale by putting up her home for sales which includes a wife. And the wife is none other than Deven Trabosh herself. One wonders what is really on the mind of the lady who has been trying to offload her Palm Beach Gardens Florida home for a year without success, and now everybody is talking about Deven Trabosh. By including herself in the package, which goes to nearly a million dollars, is Deven Trabosh considered prostituting herself? How come she is allowed to provide such services and get away with it?</p>
<p>According to the sites which Deven Trabosh has been selling the all in one package of a home for sale that includes a wife, they are pulling the plug on the offer. But Deven Trabosh is determined not to give up and she might just be trying to find a good deal for herself and family and a good enough life. There are also many people who put up a home for sale although it has never been heard of of one that includes a wife, but Deven Trabosh is probably getting desperate. Desperate for money or attention we will never really know, but it is still a good idea by Deven Trabosh because now everyone knows who she is.<span id="more-61"></span></p>
<p>Her daughters certainly do not think that Deven Trabosh made a good move with putting up her home for sale that includes a wife, as they are feeling embarrassed. Why should they be? Maybe their mom just wants to find a good life for herself (and include them as well) as well as love which Deven Trabosh seems to be lacking. It might even be mean of eBay and Craigslist to have shut Deven Trabosh offer of her home for sale. They should overlook the blurred lines in this case since Deven Trabosh might really be trying to get a better life.</p>
<p>So with Deven Trabosh antics of selling her home and heart on the Internet, will we see more copycats in the future? It usually turns out like that and she might even be proud of popularizing such a trend even if she might not have been the originator. The Deven Trabosh trend of putting up a home for sale that includes a wife. It is simply brilliant and might be many women&#8217;s way of making a quick buck and securing that fairytale marriage that would end all heartbreaks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rumspringa was talked about on an interesting show on ABC called &#8220;The Outsiders&#8221; earlier tonight and it really opened up our eyes on the lives and issues Amish teenagers and adolescents have to go through when they are young. Rumspringa is the Amish phase for teens belonging to that faith to choose for themselves whether to indulge in the outside world beyond the Amish faith or to stay in it. In effect, rumspringa does not seem any different from most teens phase in life known as teenage and adolescent years where just about everyone wants to rebel or taste the forbidden fruit before they get old mature and decide that life is just a routine unless you go on another rumspringa-like phase in your later years which is always possible because some of us never grow old and stay young in spirit.</p>
<p>But for Amish teens rumspringa seems to really leave them in a state of confusion as they do not know what to do and the impression I was given, I may be wrong, is that they do not understand why they have been left in the lurch to handle this themselves and why their faith actually allows it to happen. Should they not believe in their faith instead of having to go through a phase known as the rumspringa? Is their faith sending them into sin, which some might consider the rumspringa phase to signify.<span id="more-51"></span></p>
<div align="center"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&#038;ai=p%7Ca%7Dbaz%7D%3E%3F&#038;bdrcolor=FFFFFF&#038;catid=267+1+11700&#038;cid=0&#038;eksize=1&#038;encode=UTF-8&#038;endcolor=FF0000&#038;endtime=n&#038;fbgcolor=FFFFFF&#038;fntcolor=000000&#038;fs=0&#038;hdrcolor=FFFFFF&#038;hdrimage=1&#038;hdrsrch=y&#038;img=y&#038;lnkcolor=0000FF&#038;logo=3&#038;num=10&#038;numbid=n&#038;paypal=n&#038;popup=n&#038;prvd=9&#038;query=amish&#038;r0=3&#038;sacategoryin=267+1+11700&#038;shipcost=n&#038;sid=TTBamish&#038;siteid=0&#038;sort=MetaLowestPriceSort&#038;sortby=price&#038;sortdir=asc&#038;srchdesc=n&#038;tbgcolor=FFFFFF&#038;tlecolor=FFFFFF&#038;tlefs=0&#038;tlfcolor=000000&#038;toolid=10004&#038;track=5335971372&#038;width=400"></script></div>
<p>The rumspringa phase in Amish teens is certainly intriguing and even looks very open in one way or another. That they allow a seemingly freedom of choice for the Amish teens would seem like an open religion, even if after the rumspringa phase if they choose to stay they have to abide by strict religious ways of life which can seem downright extreme as you learn more about the faith. But the rumspringa open window definitely presents a set of choices and options for them which many other religions might not even allow at all no matter how old you might be.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Megan Touma a pregnant soldier was found dead in a North Carolina motel room at 5000 Morganton Road Fayetteville NC, where her body was discovered two days after she passed away. The Specialist was found after other occupants reported a strong and foul odor emanating from the room. The body of Megan Touma was then found tragically and decomposition must have set in which resulted in the smell. The worst thing about the death of Megan Touma was that she was pregnant at the time, about seven months heavy with child and it is a real tragic event for her family, friends and the community.</p>
<p>Megan Touma was just recently assigned to Fort Bragg and would have looked forward to a new post and assignment. Police are suspecting foul play in the death of Megan Touma, and you wonder what really happened to her or what might have caused anyone to want to harm a seven month old pregnant lady who was expecting a newborn in her life and had all ahead of her. They also mentioned that they thought this was possible since the death of Megan Touma was suspicious which is the chief reason why they need to investigate it.<span id="more-49"></span></p>
<div align="center"><script language="JavaScript" src="http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&#038;ai=p%7Ca%7Dbaz%7D%3E%3F&#038;bdrcolor=FFFFFF&#038;catid=99&#038;cid=0&#038;eksize=1&#038;encode=UTF-8&#038;endcolor=FF0000&#038;endtime=n&#038;fbgcolor=FFFFFF&#038;fntcolor=000000&#038;fs=0&#038;hdrcolor=FFFFFF&#038;hdrimage=1&#038;hdrsrch=y&#038;img=y&#038;lnkcolor=0000FF&#038;logo=3&#038;num=10&#038;numbid=n&#038;paypal=n&#038;popup=n&#038;prvd=9&#038;query=pepper+spray&#038;r0=3&#038;sacategoryin=99&#038;shipcost=n&#038;sid=TTBmegantouma&#038;siteid=0&#038;sort=MetaLowestPriceSort&#038;sortby=price&#038;sortdir=asc&#038;srchdesc=n&#038;tbgcolor=FFFFFF&#038;tlecolor=FFFFFF&#038;tlefs=0&#038;tlfcolor=000000&#038;toolid=10004&#038;track=5335971372&#038;width=400"></script></div>
<p>Which such deaths happening to even women with child, which no one in the right mind should want to harm, it is even more important for other women to learn from this tragic death of Megan Touma and arm themselves well so they would be able to protect themselves in times of danger. Pregnant women are even more at risk as illustrated, unfortunately, by Megan Touma&#8217;s case and they, more than anyone else, should make sure that they are carrying tools or weapons of some sort to keep themselves at arm&#8217;s length from danger. It might not necessary be something that could cause bodily harm, but something simple like a pepper spray should be compulsory for all women, no matter how tough they think they might be.</p>
<p>If pregnant women were to carry something like pepper spray, they could at least buy themselves some time to call for help and prevent the same unfortunate fate to befall them like what happened to Megan Touma. It might be too late now for Megan Touma but her tragedy should remind women all over the world that no matter how far we have advanced, many still prey on women and they must learn some self defense of some sort. We have to do our part to make sure crime falls or is eradicated, so that we can together eliminate similar tragedies like that of Megan Touma from happening in the future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The secret is out about Corey Haim molested which was revealed on the reality tv show &#8220;The Two Coreys&#8221;. For a reality show, it appears to be really real compared to the other shows on tv that seem to be staged. For one, talking about the incident about Corey Haim molested takes a lot of courage and belief to do on a show that is broadcast to the whole nation. While most people would want to know who molested Corey Haim, some might be applauding him and Corey Feldman, the other Corey on the show, to be brave enough to talk about it. But it was also shocking that they compared whether Corey Haim molested was a worse situation compared to Corey Feldman molested.</p>
<p>Yes, both men claimed to have been molested when they were young as it started when Corey Haim molested news was first revealed. If that was not shocking enough, both Corey Haim and Corey Feldman then started fighting with each other, in front of Susie Feldman, as to who suffered more than the other. Corey Haim molested should have been the focus for both men together, and they should have concentrated on the counselling to help them get to grips with it and learn how to overcome the suffering and torture on their souls that something like Corey Haim molested would have done to them.<span id="more-26"></span></p>
<p>On top of all this revelations about Corey Haim molested, there are also accusations that both made the stories up. It is not really known whether the story of Corey Haim molested was really true, or it was simply a case of good realty tv writing, but the story really got everyone talking and now it must be another angle to it of the drug use and whether all these bad habits the two Coreys have resulted from tragedies like Corey Haim molested. They cut it off at the end of the episode and viewers would have to really keep pace with the show to find out more, and what drama would be next on the show in the coming weeks.</p>
<p>Update: Corey Haim is dead after passing away at age of 38. I hope his soul will rest in peace as so many of his fans will wish for him. RIP Corey Haim.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone who saw the Scott Kalitta crash video on ESPN would have been shocked and horrified as it was exactly like watching death in motion being replayed over and over again as Scott Kalitta was shown crashing his car in a flaming wreck in the crash video. The incredible thing was that ESPN chose to air it on national TV across the country and there must have been thousands who saw Scott Kalitta crash in the video and threw out their insides. It was truly horrifying to see the drag racing event end in such tragedy, as Scott Kalitta hurtled down the track during his qualifying round and no one really knows what went wrong but Scott Kalitta&#8217;s car simply start catching fire and when it finally crashed as shown in the crash video, there was an amazing burst of flames.</p>
<p>The Scott Kalitta crash video then showed the car burning and the staff stations for the Lucas Oil NHRA SuperNationals drag race could not put out the flames in time nor save the poor man from the wreckage. Everyone saw how he died in the Scott Kalitta crash video and one wonders who would have to take the blame now. Would it be the NHRA? Hard to say because the Scott Kalitta crash video also showed the car traveling at almost 300 miles an hour and that might have contributed to the car going up in flames. I don&#8217;t know.<span id="more-24"></span></p>
<p>What can be certain is that the Scott Kalitta crash video will be questioned as to whether it should have been shown on national tv that might have been seen by thousands of kids. And now the Scott Kalitta crash video might even be shown online which would be available to kids worldwide. It might be sensational to watch a car go up in flames in a dramatic crash, but the crash video also showed Scott Kalitta literally burning in the wreckage and dying a fiery death. It is no wonder that people and kids in general are so immune and unfeeling towards death and destruction in the world because of such footage being shown.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have never heard of Emile Norman, you would know him by now if you saw the documentary by Will Parrinello &#8220;Emile Norman: By His Own Design&#8221; on KCET at 10pm, and then you would have slapped your forehead and wondered why you never noticed that Emile Norman was the guy who made the mural in the Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, known as the &#8220;endomosaic&#8221; mural. This mural made by him was a signature work of art, and Emile Norman used a mixture of sea shells, crushed glass and other substances with beautiful result. You wouldn&#8217;t be blamed for not knowing him though, as that is about the extent of his work in terms of being displayed in a largely public place for everyone to see.</p>
<p>Emile Norman was also a gay man who had to move his life elsewhere to the Big Sur in order to live it the way he wanted to, as during his younger days, homosexuality was still taboo compared to modern times, and it was not advisable for guys like Emile Norman to come out in the open. He did enjoy that comfort in the Big Sur though, and lived life together with his lover Brooks Clement. While the documentary did not exactly focus on Emile Norman&#8217;s homosexuality and gay life, there was enough material in it to provide quite a bit of coverage on the subject. The two lovers lived together until Clement died in 1973 and it was quite a romantic gay story.<span id="more-23"></span></p>
<p>With the amount of coverage on the loosening of laws concerning gay marriages, the story on the life of Emile Norman was heartwarming and intriguing at the same time. The documentary tried to focus more on Emile Norman&#8217;s life and work as an artist, which was greatly underrated. However, due to the public interest in gay laws, Emile Norman&#8217;s life and the gay aspects of it unexpectedly garnered more attention. It was a fantastic piece on a gay man like Emile Norman at a time when America was not ready for their acceptance into society, and how Emile Norman dealt with it with dignity, pride and integrity, and no little bit of romance.</p>
