I followed Hope, the bear, since she was born.
I watched her grow and frolic with her mom, Lily and little sister, Faith. The Lily Cam was my first internet stop of the day. I just don't understand how anyone could destroy such a magnificent creature.
And "baiting". Is that considered sportsmanlike?
I had hoped to visit Ely on vacation but can't abide the thought of it now.

Bear hunting (or any kind of hunting) should not be legal, but baiting is cowardly and just plain wrong, as is hunting period.

Bear hunters are disgusting. Get a life, a girlfriend, a job. Shooting a bear at a baited site is like sleeping with your sister.

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Scorpio

Today's Lunar Eclipse at the Full Moon stirs up powerful emotions during the next two weeks (as it has done since the Gemini Solar Eclipse last month), and it may not be a very pleasant experience. Are you feeling rather compulsive and obsessive? Financial issues could be a problem,, especially if they appear to threaten your sense of emotional security. Don't let jealousy or envy make you do things that will set other people against you.
