Bear #401 was a beautiful black bear who lived in the lands surrounding the Banff townsite in Banff National Park. Park visitors loved seeing bear #401 and he enjoyed his life in the wild. One day, his mother found an easy food source food was left lying around by some absent campers. She and bear #401 quickly became addicted to human food. Now, significant effort is needed on the part of all park visitors to ensure that bear #401 and others arent encouraged to come back for more. Resource Conservation Specialists must also increase their efforts in attempting to haze the bear away from high visitor use areas. Despite improvements in human behaviour in recent times, we all still need to be mindful of enabling human behaviour. Leaving food out at campsites and garbage outside your house is a serious danger that only encourages wildlife to become habituated (human food addicted) and can have serious impacts on their survival. We have the ability to keep wildlife free.

10 lives were left hanging by a thread - literally - when an extreme thrill ride on a rocket-like attraction almost ended in tragedy. Visitors to one of St. Petersburg's amusement parks were in for a nasty shock as a cable snapped on the ride, leaving them suspended in mid-air 70 meters above the ground. Luckily, rescue teams made it to the spot just in time to free the stranded passengers. This isn't the first safety scare at the amusement park. Two years ago, a 12-year old girl suffered serious injuries after a trampoline accident - also involving a snapped cable.

"Mad World" is a song by the British band Tears for Fears. Written by Roland Orzabal and sung by bassist Curt Smith, it was the band's third single release and first chart hit, reaching #3 on the UK Singles Chart in November 1982. Two decades later, the song made a popular resurgence when it was covered in a much slower, ballad-like style by composers Michael Andrews and Gary Jules for the soundtrack to the movie Donnie Darko. This version reached no.1 in the UK in December 2003. It was also later used in trailers for the video game Gears of War and the 2010 virus outbreak movie The Crazies. ( Wikipedia ) This is a cover of the song by Alex Parks.
