Mexico's Butterfly Forest

A Unique Natural Wonder Under Threat

Every year, hundreds of millions of Monarch butterflies move from Canada and the United States to the forests of Michoacan, Mexico in what is known as the world's largest insect migration.
Countless butterflies cluster together both on the trees and on the ground, covering large areas into carpets of orange and black. It's a breathtaking sight to behold, but as always, human greed is threatening to destroy it.

The Man Seized by Four Armies

Yang Kyoungjong was born in Korea in 1920. His extraordinary life, not of his own making, reads like a novel that would be criticized as too far-fetched to be believable.
In 1938, the occupying Japanese conscripted him into the Imperial Japanese Army to fight against the Soviet Union.
In 1939, Yang was captured by the Red Army during the Battles of Khalkhin Gol and was sent to a Soviet prison camp. In 1942, the Soviets were desperate for manpower and forced him to fight against the Germans.
In 1943, Yang was captured by the Germans during the Third Battle of Kharkov. By this time, the Wehrmacht was desperate for manpower, and put him in the Eastern Battalion which was sent to France to fight the Allies.
In 1944 the Allies invaded Normandy, and Yang was captured by U.S. paratroopers. He was sent to a prison camp in Britain, but this time, he was not forced to fight for his captors. The U.S. doesn’t do that, and the war was almost over anyway. That might have been the reason Yang emigrated to the U.S. after his release. He lived in Illinois for the rest of his life. Yang had three children, but never told them the complete story of his globetrotting service in World War II. 

'The Voice' singer Christina Grimmie dies after Orlando shooting

Macy's iHeartRadio Rising Star Christina Grimmie performs during the 2015 iHeartRadio Music Festival at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada September 18, 2015. 

Singer Christina Grimmie, who gained fame as a contestant on television singing contest “The Voice,” died after being shot at a concert in Orlando on Friday, police said on social media.
Grimmie was signing autographs with band members of Before You Exit, with whom she performed earlier, when a gunman approached and opened fire before her brother tackled him at the Plaza Live music venue, the Orlando Police Department said on Twitter.
Grimmie died from her injuries, the department said in a post early Saturday.
The suspect shot and killed himself, police tweeted.
Grimmie placed third during the 2014 season of the “The Voice,” a singing competition on NBC.

“We are heartbroken,” said “The Voice” in a Twitter post late Friday.

Residents object to store for adults who dress as babies

A new baby store for adults is sparking outrage in suburban Mount Prospect, Illinois. Dozens of residents showed up at village hall on Tuesday night, calling for the business to be shut down or moved. However officials say they had no legal basis to bar the business, Tykables, which has a seven-foot crib, an oversized high chair and adult-sized playpen.

“Things for people to come and play, take pictures with. Not everybody has access to a nursery,” the owner says. The owner of the store says the primary focus of the business is selling adult diapers for medical needs and for “ABDL” or “Adult Baby Diaper Lovers,” some with baby or sexual fetishes.
Residents, however, say what’s going on inside the store has no place near schools and homes. “It’s hard for us to swallow in this community,” one concerned resident said at the village hall. “He’s getting his party go in there, and we’re supposed to sit back and watch,” another resident complained. The doors are locked at the store and customers can only enter by appointment. White panels cover the windows, for privacy.

“They’re not having sex with their diapers on, they’re having people feed them and act like a baby,” explained one resident at the meeting. “It’s a business that many people find at best distasteful, but that is legal,” said a village official at the meeting. The village is investigating whether the store owner lied on the business application. However, the village attorney says civil rights laws may protect against any action against the business.

Loch Ness footage shows humps moving across the water

A holidaymaker has filmed mysterious humps moving across Loch Ness. Tony Bligh, of Dublin, Ireland, captured the short clip while visiting the loch for the first time last Wednesday. Taken about noon from the Wellington layby on the A82, it shows a series of equidistant humps moving through the water in unison.

"I was at the top of the steps when I noticed something out on the water about three-quarters out," said Mr Bligh, who then started filming it. Mr Bligh, who also noted there was a boat about 400 yards away, said there appeared to be four to five humps, about 6ft apart, which moved together. "It was quite long," he said. "The humps were consistently the same length apart. I don’t know what it was. It was very unusual."
Mr Bligh, who was with a friend, Annie Hawkes, showed his film to staff in VisitScotland’s Inverness office. "They were really excited by it," he said. "It is interesting everyone who has seen it." They include Adrian Shine of the Loch Ness Project which gathers scientific information on the loch’s ecology and the potential for a monster. But rather than confirming the image is, indeed, of Nessie, Mr Shine maintained it was an optical illusion created by the wake of a boat.

YouTube link.

"It is a particularly good example of the effect that a reasonably high boat wake can make. It shows how powerful this illusion could be. It produces a line of very solid looking humps." However, as he headed home to Ireland, Mr Bligh remained unsure of what the film revealed, especially given the uniformity with which the "humps" moved. "I am tending towards the wake of a boat, I am an engineer and I am on the side of logic," he said.

Horse wears funny mask to avoid sunburn

Kimberley, a 14-year-old rescue horse from Ireland, is susceptible to sunburn, so she wears a mask with big blue eyes and a smiley face.
The normally placid cremello pony is employed to provide rides for youngsters by the North Ferriby Riding for the Disabled (RDA) group in East Riding of Yorkshire. But try applying sun cream and she changes in an instant. "Kimberley is pure white and has a pink mouth and pink around her eyes," group organizer Debra Pea said.
"With it being really hot and sunny recently she is susceptible and we need to apply her with sun cream. But she knows when you are about to apply it and she really doesn't like it. It is a really tough job to do. That is why we have put the mask on her to protect her from the sun. It is a fine netting so she can see through it perfectly well and she is happy with it.
"We have plain mask, but that can make her look a little sinister. Somebody bought this mask and kindly gave it to us. Kimberley is a sensible horse but she is happy to wear the mask. A lot of people have commented on it and it has been a great source of amusement. It is also great for the kids. It cheers them up and they find it a lot more friendly."

Court rules that prison inmate can sue over removal of marbles from his penis

A federal appeals court on Tuesday revived a lawsuit in which a West Virginia inmate accused state prison officials of invading his privacy by surgically removing marbles he had implanted in his penis. By a 3-0 vote, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Adrian King could pursue claims that officials at Huttonsville Correctional Center illegally threatened him into consenting to the June 2013 surgery, or risk being segregated from other inmates and lose his eligibility for parole.

Circuit Judge Roger Gregory found "overwhelming evidence" that the intrusion was unreasonable, despite the asserted need by prison officials to police the security threat posed by inmates carrying contraband within their bodies. "The interest in bodily integrity involves the most personal and deep-rooted expectations of privacy, and here, the nature of the surgery itself, surgery into King's penis, counsels against reasonableness," Gregory wrote for the Richmond, Virginia-based appeals court.
King had the marbles implanted in and tattoos drawn on his penis in late 2008, prior to his incarceration, during a "body modification" craze. He said the surgery left his penis with tingling and numbness, and pain when it is touched or when it rains, snows or gets cold. King said the surgery also resulted in mental and emotional anguish, saying that prison officials call him "Marble Man" and ask when searching him where his marbles are, and that gay inmates approach him because of how staff gossip about him.
Tuesday's decision restores claims that King's Fourth Amendment right against illegal searches and seizures, Eighth Amendment protection against cruel and unusual punishment, and 14th Amendment guarantee of equal protection, were violated. It reversed much of a February 2015 ruling by Chief Judge Gina Groh of the federal court in Martinsburg, West Virginia, and returned the case to her for further proceedings. King is seeking compensatory and punitive damages.

Woman arrested for pulling gun on 'bad guy' pro wrestler during show

A woman from LaFayette, Georgia, was arrested on aggravated assault charges after she allegedly pulled a gun on a 'bad guy' pro wrestler during a show. According to the Catoosa County Sheriff’s Department, Patricia Anne Crowe, 59, was arrested on Saturday on charges of aggravated assault and reckless conduct. She was released from jail on Monday evening on a $4,000 bond. The incident occurred at around 11pm at the American Wrestling Federation (AWF) arena in Ringgold. The promotion was putting on its monthly show, when Crowe, a spectator at the event, threatened and attacked long-time wrestler Paul Lee. Deputies arrived on scene after Crowe allegedly jumped into the ring during the show and pulled a handgun on Lee.

According to Lee and several witnesses, Lee was participating in a match with “Iron Mann,” at which time he tied him up and was hitting him with a chair, reports show. “I had him tied up and was beating on him, and this lady jumps up with a knife, cuts him loose, and then pulled a loaded gun on me,” Lee said. “She had that thing loaded with one in the chamber and the safety off. All it would have taken was for her to get shaky with that thing and it could have fired.” Crowe also pointed the gun at the show’s commissioner “Robbie Rude,” reports show. Lee says the woman has been to shows before and should have known that the incident going on with the other wrestler was part of the show. “She’s been to several shows over the years off and on, but she was acting like a nut on Saturday night,” Lee said.
Lee, whose character is a “heel” or “bad guy,” often banters back and forth with spectators as part of the show, but it rarely turns physical. “We’ve done fraternity shows at colleges and stuff before where drunk college kids will try to run into the ring or something, but nothing like this,” Lee said. “In about 1992, at another location, we were doing a show and I got stabbed by about a six-inch blade by a fan. Fans usually don’t get involved though, they usually just watch.” According to police Cpl. Chris Faulk, Crowe admitted she pulled the gun on Lee because of the banter the two had engaged in. “Ms. Crowe did indeed pull the gun on Mr. Lee because of the way he’d talked to her,” Faulk said. “She said, ‘he was talking mean to me, and I got mad. I guess I just let my temper get the best of me and I pulled my pistol on him’.”
Lee says he told Crowe “to sit her toothless self back down,” and that she then approached the ring. Lee added that he’s not thrilled with Crowe being released so soon. “The sheriff’s office called me to let me know they let her out Monday on a $4,000 bond,” Lee said. “I think it should have been a higher bond than that. She pulled a gun on me in front of kids and everything….it was just crazy.” Approximately 160 people were in attendance during the incident, which has prompted Lee and the AWF to reevaluate their security measures at the arena. “We’re going to be installing metal detectors at the entrances,” Lee said. “We’ve already got ‘em picked up and will have them installed before the next show. The way the world is today, things happen at movie theaters and malls….you have to take extreme measures to protect fans. We’ll have the metal detectors right at the doors when you come in.”

Tutu-wearing man arrested on suspicion of DUI also had a chastity device attached to his penis

A Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper found something unusual when he stopped a man for suspected DUI. When Curtis Scott Eidam, 35, of Oak Ridge, East Tennessee, was stopped on suspicion of drunken driving at a sobriety checkpoint, his wardrobe immediately grabbed attention, an official said.

He was wearing "some kind of red mesh see-through hose" with a ribbon tied in his goatee, said Investigator Bobby Joe Higgs of the Anderson County District Attorney General's office. Capping Eidam's outfit: "He had on some kind of little skirt," Higgs said. "I believe the garment is known as a tutu."
Eidam made a disclosure once in custody, according to the arrest warrant filed by Tennessee Highway Patrol Sgt. Dennis Smith - he needed a key. Eidam told officers he was wearing what he called a locked chastity belt, and it was "attached to his penis," the warrant states. One key was on his key chain, the suspect said, and the other on a necklace around his passenger's neck.
That 44-year-old woman, described as "highly intoxicated" in the trooper's warrant, wasn't charged. One of the two keys was retrieved by another officer and given to Anderson County jail personnel, according to court records. Eidam is charged with DUI and possession of a handgun while under the influence. He is scheduled to appear in Anderson County General Sessions Court on July 12.

Butt crack bandit caught on camera stealing plants from outside restaurant

Police are looking for a man caught on camera stealing plants from outside the Cotta’s Kitchen restaurant in Turlock, California.

The theft was captured on the restaurant’s security cameras, the thief rolling a wheelbarrow onto the porch just before 10pm on Wednesday. The shirtless man bent slightly to set down the wheelbarrow, exposing the top of his posterior and earning him the name “butt crack bandit” from owner Angela Cotta.
However, the bandit then left, maybe to retrieve a shirt because he was wearing one upon his return 15 minutes later. He spoke on a cellphone while he paced in front of the business. “This guy’s got to live darn close if he’s toting around a wheelbarrow,” Cotta said about the incident. “Or maybe he has a night-time landscaping service where he pillages plants.”

For whatever reason, this video has been censored.

YouTube link.

The man proceeded to pull plants from a planter next to the front door: coleus and impatiens, according to Cotta. He then went for the Japanese maple, yanking hard on two of them but conceding defeat. He left with the plants in the wheelbarrow, walking in the opposite direction from which he arrived. Anyone with information about the theft should contact Turlock police.

A Massive, Ancient Platform Discovered in Petra Has Been ‘Hidden in Plain Sight’

Archaeologists just published the discovery they made in Jordan
Archaeologists have used satellite imagery and drone photography to discover an enormous ceremonial platform near the center of the ancient city of Petra.

Sarah Parcak and Christopher Tuttle published their finding in a new report that reveals the monument that has been, as the paper is titled, hiding in plain sight. That is all the more impressive because of the platform’s size: at 184 by 161 feet, it’s roughly the length of an Olympic swimming pool (and twice the width), National Geographic reports.

“I’m sure that over the course of two centuries of research [in Petra], someone had to know [this site] was there, but it’s never been systematically studied or written up,” Tuttle told the magazine. “I’ve worked in Petra for 20 years, and I knew that something was there, but it’s certainly legitimate to call this a discovery.”

Using the aerial images, the archaeologists determined that a small building sat atop the platform. Petra, located in present-day Jordan, was founded around the second century B.C., and abandoned by the seventh century A.D.

Stowaway bear cub caught playing on side of freighter ship

A bear cub decided to stowaway on the side of a freighter ship on Lake Superior for a while on Friday. Keith Baker was walking back to his room on the Cason J. Callaway after eating lunch when the watchman told him to look over the side of the freighter, docked in Two Harbors to load iron ore pellets at the time.

That’s when he spotted the bear cub attempting to climb up the Callaway’s draft board, which was hanging in the water on the side of the ship, said Baker of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. The watchman told Baker that the cub swam over to the Callaway from a vacant ore dock. “He grabbed on and wasn’t letting go,” Baker said The cub eventually let go of the draft board and swam back to shore as the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources arrived on the scene, said Baker.
A report of a bear playing on an ore ship was a first for conservation officer David Schottenbauer. “I think it was just out scouting around and looking at stuff and being curious and found itself hanging off an ore ship,” Schottenbauer said. “It was a bear cub being a bear cub.” The ore docks in Two Harbor’s Agate Bay served as a playground for the cub for about an hour at around 11:30am before it ran off along the shore of Lake Superior, said Schottenbauer, who works out of the Silver Bay Department of Natural Resources station.
He explained that the cub was skittish toward humans and wasn’t a public safety threat, so he let it find its way out of the area on its own. The workers were shooing the cub off the ore dock and told Schottenbauer that they’ve had bears in the area before. The bear was a small cub, weighing an estimated 30 pounds and probably born this past winter. Its mother wasn’t visible, but may have been nearby, he said. The cub appeared healthy as it was running around. “There was nothing that told me the bear wasn’t normal other than the fact that it was goofing around down there at the dock - more of a curiosity thing than anything,” he said.
