The Santa Barbara Zoo has a new Masai Giraffe calf. Audrey, aged eight, gave birth to the calf on the evening of March 26 in the Zoo’s Giraffe Barn, after approximately five hours of labor. The male calf has been named “Chad” in honor of long-time Santa Barbara Zoo supporters, the Dreier Family. The Dreier Family has sponsored seven Giraffes at the Zoo including Chad’s parents Michael and Audrey. At the calf’s first exam by the Santa Barbara Zoo Animal Care team, the male was measured at six-feet-six-inches-tall and weighed 191 pounds. http://www.zooborns.com/zooborns/201...-zoo-herd.html |

Cirque du Soleil cancels multiple shows in N.C.
Cirque du Soleil, the enormously popular Canadian art/acrobatic troupe, announced Friday it has joined multiple entertainers who are canceling shows and concerts in North Carolina in protest of that state's new law widely condemned as anti-LGBT people. In statements posted on Facebook and Twitter, Cirque du Soleil said it "strongly believes in diversity and equality for every individual and is opposed to discrimination in any form." Cirque du Soleil said the North Carolina law is "an important regression to ensuring human rights for all," according to the statement. http://ricksblog.biz/wp-content/uplo...ers-volant.jpg http://visitandorra.com/var/andorra/..._full_page.jpg http://jewishbusinessnews.com/wp-con...-DU-SOLEIL.jpg When I first had the pleasure and opportunity to see my first Cirque du Soleil performance in Vegas, my very soul was nourished. Could not stop replaying the images over and over in my head for days and weeks. However, a few of stills reminded me of a Dado painting. http://www.artvalue.com/photos/aucti...00-1763426.jpg |

Faced with cancer diagnosis, 90 year old Norma chooses road trip over chemo.
At 90 years old, Norma is having the adventure of a lifetime. The Michigan woman was diagnosed with cancer just days after her husband died and rather than face a long fight against the disease, she decided to take full advantage of the life she has left. “I’m 90 years old. I’m hitting the road," Norma said when her doctor explained the cancer diagnosis and her treatment options. So hit the road Norma did. With her son and daughter-in-law along to help her out, Norma left home to travel the country in an RV, taking in new sights and experiences along the way. Norma's story of living life to the fullest has touched the hearts of people nationwide, with hundreds of thousands following her updates online and posting messages of encouragement. The words of Norma's doctor upon hearing her decision say it best: "Right on! http://www.azfamily.com/story/315481...rip-over-chemo http://static.boredpanda.com/blog/wp...s-norma-32.jpg Here is wishing more people in Normas' shoes would choose this option, not spending the rest of your days suffering through treatments that ravage your body. Live. Love. Laugh. Repeat...... |

How Annoying are You on Social Media?
Ace <----- Not annoying Congratulations! In the age of over-sharing and relentless vanity, you have somehow managed to not be annoying on social media. We envy the way in which you've masterfully dismissed Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram from your life so you can focus on the important things like friends, family, and memories. Keep up the good work! Sample question: How often do you threaten to de-friend people on Facebook? ALL THE TIME. PEOPLE ARE FREAKIN' ANNOYING. SOMETIMES. USUALLY WHEN I GET RILED UP ABOUT A POLITICAL ISSUE. NEVER. IF I'M GOING TO DE-FRIEND SOMEONE, I'M GOING TO JUST DO IT. http://www.zimbio.com/quiz/tAwV7adML...g+Social+Media http://cos.h-cdn.co/assets/cm/14/25/...ie-girl-de.jpg https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...ecca8dffa0.jpg Great timing on this one http://media.galaxant.com/000/142/46...1406690832.png |

Harriet Tubman may replace Andrew Jackson on $20 bill.
Treasury Secretary Jack Lew will reportedly announce Wednesday that former Treasury Secretary and Founding Father Alexander Hamilton's face will remain on the $10 bill. Lew will instead announce a new plan to replace former President Andrew Jackson's image on the $20 bill with that of Harriet Tubman. Tubman was a famous 19th century abolitionist who escaped slavery and became the conductor of the Underground Railroad, a system of secret safe houses that successfully helped free hundreds of slaves. She later went on to become a spy for the Union during the Civil War. Jackson, whose face has been on the $20 bill since 1928, was a supporter of slavery who -- as some critics have pointed out -- did not believe the United States should use paper money. |
Just a horse kind of day.
