description: Grizzly bears can and will eat just about anything. And that means running down whatever they can catch, from elk calves and salmon to baby bison.

is_us_only: false

title: World's Deadliest: Grizzly Bear Attacks Prey

allowUserEmbed: True

credit: National Geographic

transcript:
Late spring in Yellowstone Park.
For elk, its calving time.
Newborn calves follow their mothers around intently, learning what they need to know to survive.
For grizzly bears, the elk calving time is dinner time.
And the sight of a vulnerable young calf is hard to resist.
When she gets lucky and close enough to a calf, she can take off in a quick burst and chase it down.
Grizzly bears can and will eat just about anything.
Most of their diet isn't even meat.
They've developed grinding teeth in the back to chew tough plants.
Long claws to dig up insects, and roots, and even shellfish.
A grizzly is on the prowl constantly, searching for any food.
Digging, grazing, scavenging.
A strong stomach is just part of what makes this bear an apex predator.
Size is a factor. This grizzly is almost 1,000 pounds.
And where fish is plentiful, its cousins grow even larger.
When the salmon return to spawn, they fill the rivers and provide a fat, rich bounty for bears.
Young and old, they all gather to fish.
The biggest claiming the best spots, and using their bulk and mean tempers to take what they don't catch.
Farther inland, the bear has to develop other hunting strategies.
Today, bison could be on the menu.
They're twice the size of an average bear. No easy takedown.
But where there are bison, there are bison babies.
The key is to separate the calf from its mother.

Stanford, Calif. • Tara VanDerveer had a simple message for her struggling Stanford team at halftime: The season could be over in 20 minutes.
Chiney Ogwumike took it to heart, along with all the others.
Ogwumike is plenty accustomed to doing a little bit of everything for Stanford and the Cardinal needed all she had to get past the first round of the NCAA Tournament, especially the spark she brings on both ends of the floor.
Ogwumike scored 29 points and grabbed eight rebounds, and top-seeded Stanford pulled away in the second half to survive a hard-fought effort by 16th-seeded Tulsa for a 72-56 victory in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday.
"We are not a team that overlooks anyone," VanDerveer said. "We can beat anyone and we can get beaten by anyone."
Amber Orrange added 14 points, six rebounds and three assists for the Cardinal (32-2), who needed more than a half to get rolling while playing at home in Maples Pavilion coming off final exams and a two-week layoff since winning the Pac-12 tournament. The game was tied 24-24 at halftime.
Conference Player of the Year Ogwumike took charge in Stanford's quest for a sixth straight Final Four after her big sister, Nneka, became the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft and the league's rookie of the year with the Los Angeles Sparks.
Up next for Stanford is a second-round date Tuesday night with No. 8 seed Michigan, which beat Villanova 60-52 in Sunday's second game at Maples.
Dayton 96, St. John's 90 (2OT) • In New York, Andrea Hoover scored a career-high 24 points and seventh-seeded Dayton outlasted No. 10 St. John's in a double overtime thriller. The Flyers (28-2) will face Kentucky in the second round Tuesday night. The Red Storm (18-13) trailed by 13 with 5:30 left in regulation before rallying to force overtime.
Delaware 66, West Virginia 53 • In Newark, Del., Elena Delle Donne scored 33 points and led a second-half surge that carried sixth-seeded Delaware past No. 11 seed West Virginia. Playing on their home floor before a sellout crowd, the sixth-seeded Blue Hens trailed 33-26 at halftime before bouncing back to extend their school-record winning streak to 26 games.
Women's tournament schedule
Monday's second-round games

'"So much depends on the team in front of you. In the first 45 games this season [in Buffalo] nothing went wrong. In the next 12 it seemed like a whole lots of things went wrong. You can be thinking you're playing great and things happen and suddenly maybe you're out of every play."'

Need a book break? Belk Library recommends books to reinvigorate your brain from the hard study and stress of March, midterms, and making Spring Break memorable. Grab your hammock or a comfy chair near the Fox Popular Reading Room's fireplace and take a tiny journey.
Librarian Megan: Canada by Richard Ford.
Read it because: The first sentence is "First, I'll tell about the robbery our parents committed. Then about the murders, which happened later."
Library Technician John D.: Appalachian Travels : the diary of Olive Dame Campbell edited by Elizabeth M. Williams.
Read it because: Edited by our wonderful librarian Betsy Williams, this moving, detailed account of life coming to the Southern Appalachian region a hundred years ago as an outsider gives a rare, personal perspective of our mountains and people back when ASU was just a ten-year-old teacher's college.
Librarian Georgie: Heat : an amateur's adventures as kitchen slave, line cook, pasta maker, and apprentice to a Dante-quoting butcher in Tuscany by Bill Buford.
Read it because: Bill Buford leaves The New Yorker to work as a line cook at Mario Batali's restaurant, then goes to Italy to study pasta-making and butchering, and ends up telling the history of Italian cooking and its impact on high cuisine today – funny and brilliant food writing.
Librarian Jennie: In Defense of Food : an eater's manifesto by Michael Pollan.
Read it because: Open up your eyes about what you put in your mouth! Simple rules for healthier eating - it changed the way I eat.
Librarian Lisa: Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn.
Read it because: The plot twists and turns make this thriller difficult to put down.
Library Technician Jason: Riders of the Purple Sage by Zane Grey.
Read it because: Wrote the way that cowboys actually spoke in the old days, with intrigue, romance, and action. Good western and intro to Zane Grey.
Librarian Jon M.: Drop Dead Healthy : one man's humble quest for bodily perfection by A. J. Jacobs.
Read it because: It is a funny, lighthearted look at living healthier through a barrage of food fads, exercises, mental techniques and experiments.
Librarian John W: Kingdom of shadows: a novel by Alan Furst.
Read it because: Beautiful. Evokes pre-WWII Europe. But later on asking myself, "Why so depressed?" It's that the Nazis are coming, of course.
Librarian Amanda: This is how you lose her by Junot Díaz.
Read it because: I could not put down Junot Díaz's latest collection of short stories. Díaz's prose is enticing, poetic, and at times raw. The charming and tragic narrator Yunior will melt your heart as he navigates immigrant life, Dominican culture, love and loss.

What McMuffin? Taco Bell makes run for breakfast
(NEWSER) – Taco Bell plans to go head-to-head—and burrito-to-burrito—with McDonald's in an effort to grab a big slice of the fast-food breakfast market. The chain plans to launch its breakfast menu at its almost 6,000 locations nationwide late next month, featuring items like the Waffle Taco, a breakfast sandwich wrapped in a waffle with a side of syrup. "We can turn the breakfast conversation into a two-horse race," Taco Bell's president tells the AP, saying the chain aims to be a "strong No. 2" after the home of the Egg McMuffin.

|Lunar Leap Months in Chinese Calendar 2001
Leap 4th Lunar Month or Leap 5th Lunar Month
There is a leap month (extra lunar month) in the Chinese Calendar year 2001. Using the different theories of Chinese Calendars or different time zones to calculate the Chinese Calendar year 2001, some calendars have leap 4th lunar month and some others have leap 5th lunar month.
There are two types of Chinese Calendars. One is the Chinese Civil Calendar, which is posted by the Chinese government. The other is the Chinese Astronomical Calendar, which is used by astronomers. The basic rules for both these Chinese Calendars are
The major difference between the Chinese Civil Calendar and the Chinese Astronomical Calendar is the assignment of leap months.
If the new moon day and the Solar Center Point are on the same day, the lunar month contains that Solar Center Point in the Civil Calendar system. In the Astronomical Calendar, we have to compare the new moon time and the Solar Center Point time (hour, minute and second). The lunar month contains that Solar Center Point only if the Solar Center Point time comes after new moon time.
In short, the Astronomical Calendar is much more accurate than the Civil Calendar. For more information about the Chinese Calendar, please read the Essence of the Chinese Calendar or FAQ pages.
The following is the listing of leap months for Chinese Calendar year 2001 in China, PST and EST time zones. We can see the leap months in the Astronomical Calendar side are consistent, but not in the Civil Calendar side.

The Date of Chinese Dragon Festival in Year 2001
The different Chinese leap months in year 2001 from the different systems and time zones causes much confusion in the calendar conversion for the Gregorian calendar between 5-22-2001 and 7-21-2001.
For example, the Chinese Dragon Boat festival is the 5th day of 5th Chinese lunar month. The Dragon Boat festival is on the Gregorian calendar 6-25-01 in the Chinese Civil Calendar year 2001. However, there are two Chinese Dragon Boat days in both the Chinese Civil Calendar and Chinese Astronomical Calendar using US PST. One is on the Gregorian calendar 5-26-01. The other one is on 6-25-01 because the leap 5th lunar month.
If you use the page of Find the date of Chinese Festivals or Chinese Lunar Calendar Conversion, you need to select the China Civil Calendar option to get the Chinese official calendar in China time zone. All other time zones must select the Chinese Astronomical Calendar option, since the Civil Calendar option is not available for non-China time zones.
The Chinese Civil Calendar is the official Chinese Calendar. Therefore, the official Dragon Boat festival date is 6-25 in year 2001.
Anyway, if the Chinese government won't use the Chinese Astronomical Calendar, then the confusion about leap months will continue throughout the next generations.

An East Texas man is now jailed after witnesses said he tried to use a school bus full of children as his getaway car.
Cedrick Brenard Lewis, age 30, faces six charges: aggravated kidnapping, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, public intoxication, disrupting activities private/public school, resisting arrest, and criminal mischief.Lewis' bond has been set at $1,570,000.
This happened around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday at the Timbercrest Apartment Complex in Palestine.
Jon Valentine is the maintenance supervisor for the apartment complex. He said he was escorting a man off the premise when the gentleman decided to jump on a school bus full of children. Valentine said if he had not been able to pull the man off the bus, he does not know what could have happened.
"His every intention was driving that school bus. He had it in drive, he was reaching for the air brakes. You know, there's no telling. I fear the worst as most parents would," Valentine said.
Valentine said when he saw the suspect walk on the bus, he did not hesitate to take control.
"The kids were ecstatic, they were screaming, crying," Valentine explained.
Valentine said the man put up a fight.
"I got him in a choke hold and pulled him down," Valentine said.
"There were some bystanders, a couple of guys who were maintenance employees for the apartment complex and a corrections officer that was off duty, saw and heard what was going on and they all went to the aid of the bus driver. Between the four adults they were able to pull the man off the bus and take the suspect down to the ground, after struggling with him. And they held him down until police got there," said Sergeant James Muniz with the Palestine Police Department.
"I think with the training of the bus driver and his quick reaction, the assistance from the other citizens that were there, it turned out as well as it could have," said Sgt. Muniz.
Police are not releasing the name of the suspect, but said he is a 30-year-old male. Valentine said the man is no stranger to Timbercrest's management.
"We already have a sustainable criminal trespassing warrant against the subject that was issued two weeks ago; that is still in effect. We will probably receive some type of restraining order or something to block him from ever getting close to these kids again," Valentine said.
Sgt. Muniz said the suspect is charged with attempted aggravated kidnapping, a second degree felony. If convicted, the suspect could face up to 20 years in prison.
The police department said there were about 10 to 15 students on the bus at the time of the incident. Sgt. Muniz said all of those children were put on another bus and safely taken to school.
Palestine Independent School District released this statement, "Palestine ISD is grateful to the bus driver and the apartment managers for their efforts in subduing the perpetrator and keeping students safe."

This is the backless, tilting office chair that strengthens one's back and promotes a healthier, active sitting style. The pedestal style chair leans slightly in any direction, forcing sitters to engage their core muscles to maintain a proper, upright sitting position. Actively working the core while you sit helps strengthen stomach and back muscles while the lack of a backrest discourages slouching, a major cause of back discomfort. Unlike traditional chairs that can restrict blood circulation in the legs, the rounded seat sides do not exert contact pressure on the back of the legs, reducing muscle fatigue. The chair is height adjustable via the pneumatic cylinder post, it has a 14"-diameter padded vinyl seat, and a sturdy stamped steel base with a black vinyl cover. 15" Diam. (14 1/2 lbs.)

Best Uses
I work 14 hours a day at this time of year. The chair has been comfortable overall. I would highly recommend it. I have had ball chairs before and this chair is much better. The only real problem I had was that the lever to raise and lower the chair does not work. The company said I could return it at no cost but I decided to try it at this height. So far so good.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Blowback or Bloody TreasonWell, the day was nine-eleven in the year two thousand-one
That's the day the "war on terror" was officially begun
When 2 planes took down 3 buildings in a scene of "Shock & Awe"
Before they hauled away the rubble, it was a crime scene for the law!
Who had the means? Who had the motive?
Who could do this crime and live?
Who had the opportunity?
Who benefits to what degree?
We need a great detective's logic!
Forensic facts and laws of physics…
Not "leaps of faith"… Just "steps to reason"
Was it blowback or bloody treason?
Was it blowback or bloody treason?
Vic Sadot - Broadside Balladeer - Original Topical Folk Songs 9/11 Truth & Justice Songs - Special 7th Anniversary LTD Edition 9/11/08
1 The Ballad of William Rodriguez - The story the World Trade Center janitor of 20 years who suddenly became a Ground Zero rescue hero as he responded with courage on September 11, 2001. The song is based on an interview by Vic Sadot in 2005 with William Rodriguez. Like many other eye-witnesses, William told of a series of explosions inside the towers on 9/11/01. His testimony was omitted from the official 9/11Commission Report on Terrorist Attacks. He has since become a 9/11 Truth Activist. (5:18)
2 Cheney's in the Bunker/Do the Orders Still Stand - Page 220 of The 9/11Commission Report: Omissions & Distortions by David Ray Griffin reveals the omitted testimony of Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta of the morning of 9/11/01 that puts Cheney in charge in the White House bunker conducting war game drills that go live as early as 9:20 am. The Commission has Cheney arriving at 9:58 and does not mention any war drills going on simultaneously. (4:50)
3 Mad Cowboy Disease - Folk meets punk with a Zydeco 8 step dance beat. The result is a hilarious broadside aimed at G W Bush war policies backed by the use of a phony cowboy image. The song offers a bizarre rationale for Neo Con bellicosity: "It must have been the dinner at the Inauguration Ball. There must have been some Mad Cow on the menu after all." (4:29)
4 The Ballad of Pat Tillman - The story of the famous football star who believed the official 9/11 story told by George Bush the day after the attacks. Tillman joined the Army Rangers. He served in Iraq and then in Afghanistan. He was reading and corresponding with anti-war professor Noam Chomsky, and, according to his mother Mary, Pat Tillman said that the war was "illegal". The Pentagon lied to his parents, the media, and the American public when they said he died a heroic death in battle. Later, as the parents and reporters investigated, the Pentagon said that Tillman was killed by "friendly fire". They made up this phony story so that they could continue to use Pat Tillman as a recruitment poster boy. On July 26, 2007 the AP released story titled "Was Tillman Murdered?". It reported that the coroner report stated that Pat Tillman was shot by 3 bullets to the forehead at 10 yards range. (5:17)
5 Born To Win - This song about US military interventions in "Third World" countries in the name of "democracy" for the so-called "Free World" was originally written in reaction to the "Iran-Contra Scandal" of the Reagan regime in which covert drugs and arms were illegally moved. The 1985 release rings true to today's US wars of choice. (3:56)
6 Trouble in the Rubble - Inspired by an Associated Press article by Amy Westfeldt about the 9/11 rescue dogs having their feet burned by a strange "white-hot debris". It was run in the Washington Post on Oct 20, 2006. While it is consistent with many reports of pools of molten steel in the rubble, it is not consistent with the official story that the towers fell into rubble as a result of jet fuel fires. (5:10)
7 Blowback or Bloody Treason - Explaining 9/11 as "blowback" against aggressive US policies was the initial view of many, especially on the left, which did not challenge the "official conspiracy story" of the G W Bush administration or the subsequent 9/11 Commission report of 2004. This song was written after reading Crossing the Rubicon by former Los Angeles detective Michael Ruppert on the forensic evidence and verifiable facts relating the events of 9/11/01. (6:06)
8 Are You A Citizen Or Are You A Slave - Written by Vic Sadot & Cindy Abramowicz Hubschmitt. The song challenges citizen apathy and the notion that we cannot change anything by citing the historical record of struggle that says otherwise. Colonialism, slavery, debtor prisons have been defeated and a Bill of Rights, the right to organize unions, civil rights and voting rights were all won through struggle. It's a strident anthem done in Cajun waltz style. (5:01)
9 Nightmare of New Orleans - A Cajun blues song about the criminally negligent response to Hurricane Katrina before, during, and after that catastrophe. (3:05)
10 The Kidnapping Coup - Tells the story of the US Bush-Cheney regime's overthrow of the democratically elected government of Jean-Bertrand Aristide on February 29, 2004. (7:08)
11 Broadside Balladeer - A tribute to Phil Ochs who Vic met and interviewed in May 1973. (3:33)
12 Ride the Wind - Vic Sadot's song about state terror and weapons of mass destruction. The title cut of a 1988 LP takes on new meanings in the post-9/11 era. Before it was about the balance of terror supplied by mutual assured destruction (MAD) in the nuclear arms race. Now it brings to mind the great fear and war mongering done in the wake of false-flag state terror operations by the globalizing corporate empire. "Ride the wind! Stand the storm! There ain't no place to hide!" (5:36)

I am 80 yrs old and on [an ACE inhibitor], but it makes me dizzy and tired. It bothers me a lot, I feel worse than when I don't take it at all. My buddy takes a different kind of drug for his high blood pressure and it doesn't bother him a bit. I would rather have that pill. Isn't there another pill I can take for high blood pressure?
Thanks! TomP
First it is important to know two things: (1) any medication for high blood pressure can cause dizziness and fatigue and (2) each person is unique and may respond to medication differently. In other words, your experience on the same drug may not be the same as your friend's. In fact, you may still feel tired and dizzy if you were prescribed his medication.
The crucial step is to talk to your doctor about the symptoms you are experiencing. Your doctor may consider one or more of the following:
If anything has changed in your life (for example, you are exercising more or you have recently lost weight), you may not need the medication any longer or your doctor may be able to reduce the dose. I raise this possibility because your dizziness, particularly if it is relatively new and you did not experience this when you were first taking your medicine, may be a sign of your blood pressure occasionally being too low. One way to evaluate this is with a 24 hour blood pressure monitor or to use a home blood pressure cuff, checking your blood pressure periodically throughout the day. Make sure to check when you are feeling dizzy and record all of these readings to show your doctor.
Don't stop or change your medication without discussing your symptoms with your doctor who, again, will be able to do a full evaluation, assess all of the information including possible lab work, and determine the best options for you.

Topic: Most stupid question ever!
I know I don't belong here but my vanity is making me ask this question. OMG, I do take after my Mom.
My GI put me on Humira the middle of FEB when I was in the Hospital from the Ulcerative Colitis. I noticed the other day big amounts of my hair are dancing all over. I know I can wear a hat and I tried a wig but its already to warm here for a wig and they are uncomfortable. I am pushing thru all the nasty side effects but please not the hair!! The GI also switched me from Prednisone after 1 1/2 years to a new Med, Uceris. I started that a week ago. Looked up both Meds as far as side effects and it mentioned hair loss only under Humira. Oh, and I am supposd to get a moustache and beard. Guess I could let them grow long and comb thm up over my head! Any suggestions appreciated.
