killing giant manta rays

The Chinese are killing them with this medicine.They could make them go extinct. The giant manta ray population has gone down 1/3 in the last couple years.  Its not just in one area its all over the world. Marine biologist don't like seeing this happen so they made a law that it will be considered a crime if you kill one of these manta rays. Theses rays also reproduce slowly so they cant repopulate as fast as they are killed. They don't even kill them for food.Its for some of  their body parts that's all they want from them. Its just wrong to kill a innocent animal for fun pretty much.

teen that buys houses!!....not cars

This girl is 15 and has bought two houses already. She has created her own little business. She buys old kind of junkie looking houses and fixes them and then rents them out. Rent is $800 and that money she uses to pay for next house. Since shes too young to actually buy her own house her parents help her and she just pays them back. She plans to buy 10 houses by the time shes 18. When she is 18 her parents are singing the houses over to her. For right now she is learning how things go when you buy a house and knowing what she can spend and what not to spend. She will probably go into real-state if she keeps doing this. I would never want to do this, they are crazy for even letting their daughter do this and they help her.

couple arrested for terror activities

In London's Heathrow Airport they arrested a couple about 26 years of age and both British nationals. They got off a flight from Egypt and were then arrested for terror activities. The polices didn't know if they were going to Syria or if they returned from from there.  they were brought to the police station and they searched two home in London to investigate. I assume that the homes belonged to this couple. Now they are looking into these two to see if they were part of something that happened in July. How do they tell if someone is a part of terror activity or not? or is it all a guess just of suspicion?

Starfish are a problem

Since like 1980's the Great Barrier Reef has lost about half of its coral. Its all because of this one kind of start fish its kind eats about 10 square meter in a year, that's a lot.  They say that the ecosystem has experienced a lot of damage. The damage was caused by tropical cyclones, starfish (crown of thorns), and coral bleaching.  If this keeps up in 10 years another half of it will be gone. The only thing they can really do to help fix this is to get rid of the starfish because they cant control the storms or coral bleaching cause they are natural occurring things its nature.
