| Interesting fact: All polar bears are left-handed | | I was just reading this on a page about "useless knowledge" and I found it very interesting.

| | The right to bare arms against armed bears | | Many here will know that I am vehemently opposed to the concept of the private right to bear arms - which I am disappointed to learn in the US does not include F-16 fighters, bazookas or missiles but is limited to relatively puny hand weapons. I am always keen to read more about the subject as I really do struggle with the wording of the Second Amendment which reads that it relates to freedom from potential tyranny and is interpreted as allowing self defence from the passing homicidal burglar etc. But that is not my question, simply the preamble. There is a thread on the BBC news site about open weapon carrying in Wisconsin which has descended predictably into name calling - my country's better than yours etc - and offers little in the way new perspectives. However, two people have come up with comments that amused me: Firstly, from the UK, maybe there should "the right to arm bears" and secondly from the US "the right to bare arms"! Would you go hunting if your quarry was an armed bear and all that you had was a bare arm?! | |

Gaines Adams: chicago bears Player Dies Aged 26The chicago bears have been left in shock and disbelief recently, after news broke that their defensive end Gaines Adams had sadly passed away on Sunday morning, after going into cardiac arrest because of an enlarged heart."How does an athlete die suddenly of an enlarged heart? Don't they get continuous medical checkups? I find this story hard to understand. secondly from the US "the right to bare arms"!

| Bears - Spectacled, Polar or Any Other | | Hi there people,I was wondering if anyone out there has heard of the Spectacled Bear? It lives in South America and seems to be one of the cutest creatures I've seen - does anyone know if they are endangered, what they do for fun or anything?Also, what do you think of other bears - Polar bears for example - Are they dangerous, aggresive and not worth protecting or should we be worried that there may not be any Polar Bears left in 30 years time? | |
| | The Chicago Bears just can't win. | | The Chicago Bears just can't seem to do anything right this year. No matter what we present in the offense the other team shuts us down. But when your quarterback throws 5 picks in one game how can they possibly get into the end zone. And the penalties really killed us. At least the defense kept us in the game tonight. I really thought we might stand a chance with Jay Cutler but he keeps choking in the red zone. the bears really need to get something going and soon. secondly from the US "the right to bare arms"! Would you go hunting if your quarry was an armed bear and all that you had was a bare arm?! | |
