"Dog lover dies after wearing pet's lead round his neck after it gets stuck in car wheel."

Dog lovers, everyone has that friend that's obsessed with dogs or cats. Most owners of their pets become very close with their pet, and the pet becomes the owners companion. Like taking care of a child. Dogs give off that feeling of belonging to its owner or master. It's just the way they are programmed. Especially between a dog and a person, the relationship is amazing. Dogs are first to be by your side! The relationship grows the more you've been through. Losing a dog can be the saddest moment of our life like a person died, it has that same feeling of loss. They become like a member of the family. When dealing with loss everyone handles it differently. Some become melancholy, gloomy, upset, angry, depressed, how ever they deal with problems. Some do rituals that they remember the person doing, in memory of them. Rob Emsile fourty seven years old, has an interesting grieving possess that actually led to his own death. Mr. Emsile a plumer and once a dog owner, had a normal life. But he recently had to put down his best companion from the suffering, but actually led to his own suffering. His grieving process was that he would wear his dogs collar and leash around his neck like his dog would, in memory of him. Mr. Emsile did this in public and people began to notice this strange behavior. They ignored it for now thinking that Mr. Emsile was just really upset over his loss. Later to come find out, a woman found Mr. Emsile dead in his own truck 4x4 with that collar and leash on. The woman owns the restaurant that Mr. Emsile was the night before they found his body. Mr. Emsile's witness says that he left the restaurant around midnight with the collar and leash on and about ten glasses of wine in his system. Sheriff's came and investigated the scene and concluded that Mr. Emsile was unawear that the dogs leash that he was still wearing, was jammed in the door, meaning that he must have closed the door on it before leaving. The part of the leash that was exposed was the part that actually killed him. Once Mr. Emsile started to accelerate, the exposed leash got wrapped around the wheel and its axel and tightened so it was tought, in a matter of time the leash was so tight that it snapped Mr. Emsile's neck and killed him instantly! A very strange way to die but everything happens for a reason, they say. Maybe Mr. Emsile really couldn't live with out his companion after all. wc=438

"'Pawning my Aston Martin was the best option"

Simon Bennett, took pawning to a level of fast cash to save his business from failure. Mr. Bennett needed to pay back a debt for his business and was in need of a loan or fast cash. With the bank rejecting him to an acceptable loan, Mr. Bennett had a choice to make. Mr. Bennett realized that pawnbrokers are the key to fast cash and are actually doing the best economicly during this ressession. So looking at his options, he was limited with little money so he needed a fast money booster to keep his business strong. Pawning his car was his best option at this time, but the car is what made him the big, fast cash he needed. Pawning his car was the quickest was out of his debt and once he makes the money back he will also have the option to buy back the car. Not only did Simon Bennett pawn his car, it was the name of the car that really got the pawnbrokers attention. An Aston Marin Virage. Like Simon Bennett's last resort pawn more people are using pawnbrokers in order to receive fast cash for selling their belongings. Banks these days are limiting the loans given out and are make people bite their nails on owed debt. During this recession right now is the best way economicly to make fast cash . More and more shops are even opening for business of pawn. This makes it easier for people to come in and display their belongings get a professional price and value for their items. Some items may surprise them in how much value they are just holding onto that they could have in cash. Many people are resulting in pawn and pawn shops to get rid of belongings for cash rather than dealing with the bank hasells. Little pawn shops are becoming popular and are popping up everywhere, there is even a couple of TV shows that show some interesting items that people bring in. "Pawn Stars" are one of the most popular of the TV shows and its a family owned shop that buy and sell items that the public brings in, with a result of cash. They are probably the fastest richest profit making business today, and continue to be sucessfull. With connections to the professional historians they take anything, research the item seek the value and pawn it for an accurate price. People range from jewelry to vehicles to dolls to who knows what, and make at least something off of it. That's the road Simon Bennett took to get fast cash, and he and many others have been successfull. wc=441

"The deadly venom being used as medicine."

Venom is now being used as medication for serious diseases and cancers. This deadly venom may be the key to actually being a helpful medication believe it or not.This may be beneficial later on in life for cancer treatments and Alzheimer's disease.  The venom that has been studied to be successful so far in destroying bad cells and helping cure, cancer by attaching itself to the tumor and breaking the tumor down. Further studies are being done. The venom is coming from two animals that so far has worked, "Death Stalker Scorpion" and the "Black Widow Spider". The death stalker scorpion is considered the most poisonous spider in the world, but yet is used as a medication for future diseases. The Death Stalker Scorpion burrows in stones and is found accross North Africa and in the Middle East. This scorpion stings from its tail and contains about a two and a half teaspoon of poison. The poison is consisted with a chemical called chorotoxin. This chemical stops the communication of the nurvious system to the rest of the body, slowly shuts down all organs and eventually the lungs will stop working too and death following. The medication that this deadly venom is possibly going to be used for targeting cancer cells. The venom attaches itself to the tumor and stops the communication as well as travel of the cancer to other parts of the body and slowly destroys the tumor.   As well as black widow spiders they contain the most poison of any spider known. One out of every one hundred bites can kill a human being. Their venom is used mostly to catch their prey, they create a wide web to catch bugs. Then the spider would poison the bug until death to consume. The spiders produce about twenty five to two hundred and fifty eggs. Mostly during the summer months. These deadly spiders can be found in mostly the woods raley indoors. Their habit is generally undisturbed like a shed or crawl space but mostly places like stumps, logs, and in sparse vegetation. Scientist have found that the venom carries through the blood stream and attacks the nervous system causing a painful reaction. But an ingredant in the venom is a possible building block to help produce protein. It's called a certain peptide. The proteins are produced for memory, and believed to medicate and reduce symptoms of the disease Alzheimer's. These simple deadly bugs are the last animal that we would think would be beneficial to our health, but are being created into medication which is pretty neat, and hopefully does work and make a difference! wc=438

"Sunbed mother accused of allowing her five-year-old daughter in tanning booth."


A recent story of a mother that lives in New Jersey currently at this time was actually accused of bringing her five year old daughter tanning with her. Her daughter is now six and has complained to the school's nurse that she was itchy from "the tanning bed" when she was with her mother. The school imediatly took this seriously and researched this issue. Turns out children under the age of fourteen are not allowed to be in a tanning bed nor the stand up bed. This little girl is far much to young to be the tanning bed and could harm her health in the future. Although being in the "tanning room" is harmless if your actually not in the bed. The ultraviolet rays that the tanning beds produce a great risk of developing cancer. After a few court meetings, this New Jersey mother claims that her daughter did not enter the tanning bed she was just simply in the "tanning room" with her. "I'm not going to bring my little daughter into a ninety degree bed. I mean that's not normal." She says. Evidence shows that her daughter is sunburned on her body, the mother claims that it's not from any tanning bed that it was from her daughter just playing outside on a unseasonably warm day. The mothers image of tan is obvious she abuses the machines to her advantage of a good tan. Her tan just looks so unnatural. Which concludes that she spends her money and spare time at the salon. The mother has pleaded not guilty and charges at this time are second degree child endangerment with a fine over two thousand dollars! Employees that were working the believed day of the mother daughter tan, said that the little girl stood outside the room with her father and never entered the tanning bed. They were simply just waiting for her mother to finish. After every session her mother is just setting a bad example for her little girl in protecting her body, shes considered a "tanorexic". Some say relating this case that to many young kids are developing cancer in their adult hood and they are thinking that the UVB rays from the tanning machines are the cause. UVB's only have one purpose that they are to darken the skins color, that doesn't even sound healthy. Because of this, a law in the future may be passed saying that minors need parental permission to use the tanning beds. wc=114

"Two thirds of children 'not getting enough sleep'."

In this article, studies that actually prove that this generation of children are not getting enough sleep and not performing their best in thier studies in school. The expected home routine for bed time should include the following... A strict set bed time, a limited time for video games, family talk dinner, an hour or so of down time like homework tv or a movie. In earlier generations when children didn't have tvs in their rooms parents would read bedtime stories to put them to sleep. An average time for a healthy nights sleep for children should be nine thirty at night. The children of this generation school night routine include, hours of video games and tv and go to bed around elleven at night. The teenagers of this generation go to sleep around mindnight on a daily basis, and their routine include internet surffing, video games, texing, and watching tv for endless hours."Pre-bedtime activity is turning British Children into living zombies" says researchers. Teachers have been noticing their students behavior. Their behavior is lack of paying attention during classes and sleeping at least once a class every week. A servey taken from 250 teachers and they all have noticed this behavior in their students. Teachers have noticed a great increase of children being diagnosed with depression. In young school children that are sleep deprived actually tend to be more hyper and irritated over little things, most doctors have mistaken sleep deprivion for ADHD. The children are not feeling up to speed and actually become depressed, this is on the rise. They say that not only good behavior is the result of a good nights sleep but also what the child eats before bedtime and how relaxed the environment is.Some say the caffeine consumption has a great effect on the nights sleep, depending on when you consume it. Teens are confusing their bodies by drinking coffee to keep them selves going to keep them awake when really all they need is a good nights rest and they'll feel the same result. Another study out of two thousand children says that only one third of them are getting a good nights sleep. That's to low of a statistic! An average taken of a normal nights sleep for children is a solid seven and a half hours of sleep, a good nights sleep is nine hours to feel fully rested. In another statistic they say as they generations are modernizing we are losing consistently thirty seven minutes of recommended  sleep. wc=418

"Are these the worst wedding pictures ever? bungling photographers miss out faces and forget groom's parents."

In this article, pictures of Thomas and Anneka Geary wedding did not come out the way they expected and were deeply disappointed. The couple hired a professional photographer to take pictures of the most special day of their lives. Mr. and Mrs. Geary spent over a grand on these professional photographers to take pictures of the wedding for the quests and to look back on. The pictures taken looked like a five year old could have taken them. They were blurry and most of them were pictures of the back of peoples heads and not one picture of the grooms parents. There were 120 guests and there were not many pictures of the event. The Geary's were not happy to receive the pictures after the wedding and wish they didn't spend that much money on photographers that did not do a good job at allllll. wc=145
