Jenna says she is lucky the outcome wasn't worse.
"With time, I could have lost a lot of skin," Jenna says. "And they said if I had waited, I could be getting reconstructive surgery on the bottom half of my face."
Despite the ordeal, Jenna says she's not against lip augmentation and may even get lip-filler injections in the future. But if she does, she says, she'll get it done by a doctor. She says it would be worth the extra cost.

Unbeleivable. After almost losing your face, you still think non-necessary medical procedures are worth doing, just to get ridiculous looking lips?

Yesterday a 33 year old man got a little carried away taking photos at Elbow Falls. He jumped the small fence, to get a better picture, and ended up falling in the water and died.

I'm surprised that doesn't happen more often, every time I've been there people do stuff like that.

That's sad. The fences are there for a reason people!
In other falling to your death while taking pictures news a man died on the Going to the Sun road in Glacier National Park last week after slipping into a creek, getting washed into a culvert under the road and then plunging off a 30m cliff.

How bad has your life been when you are 14 years old, breaking into a school in the middle of the night, carrying a knife and have no problem trying to kill a dog by stabbing it in the head?

If there's a heaven or a hell, it would be interesting to do a poll of people showing up for their eternal assignment and the first words from their lips is "Well hell that was stupid"

Two Venezuelan opposition leaders, Leopoldo López and Antonio Ledezma, have been re-a
This doesn't get as much attention as it should be getting. Venezuela, a once prosperous oil-driven nation is literally becoming a dictatorship with each passing day.

But the opposition accused the president of trying to rewrite the constitution in order to maximise his power and sideline the opposition-controlled legislature.

Quote:

US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced on Monday that the US had imposed sanctions on President Maduro and called him a "dictator who disregards the will of the Venezuelan people".

Antonio Ledezma is the former mayor of Caracas. He's literally being dragged out of bed and arrested wearing his pyjamas.
The whole world is focused on NK and whatever Trump drama is going on. But the situation in Venezuela has been getting worse day by day.

I've seen stories of it on CTV, CTV, BBC and CNN, its getting a lot of attention, especially after the last vote that basically made Maduro President for life.
In other news, a malignant south American Dictator? Wow this water is really wet too.

Thanks for posting the link. As a Venezuelan living in Canada, it is frustrating hear about friends and family stuck at home due to protests and the struggle to find food.
About Venezuela being a dictatorship, that is not surprising. Chavez (before he died) used to say that he will be president until 2021, and afterwards, his daughter will take over.
The other thing I will say is what Trump is doing with the media is very similar with what Chavez did in the early 2000s, ending with some networks being bought by the government. I really hope that is not the case.

A few months ago I was out there biking when they had warning signs for bears, clearly stating all dogs MUST be kept on leash. Every goddamn dog owner had their dogs loose, frolicking in the grasses and running into the creek. People are idiots, unable to comprehend a simple warning. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Fido was running loose in this case.

She's being fined for it now. Some people will probably spout off how she's already been punished by being attacked by a bear and this is kicking her when she's down. But sometimes a message needs to be sent. Obey the f'ing signs.
