Father and Kids rescued after 2 days in National Park
J.R. Kimbler and his 2 kids got lost in the Congaree National Park in South Carolina this past weekend. The 27,000 acre park left a large search area for rangers and law enforcement officials to find the middle-aged man and his 10 & 6 year old kids. Kimbler sent a text to his friend at 9:30 saturday morning, who then let his wife know and authorities were then called and a rescue posse was sent out after them. None of the three people were injured at all, but were taken to the local hospital to be checked out. Kimbler said it was their first time visiting the park and they didn't know where they're going. Let's be glad this guy is safe now.

Why does the World need Nuclear Weapons?
We all know that all the World's Superpowers have Nuclear Weapons, but why do we? Is World War III really on its way? The answer is yes. We all have Nuclear Weapons because and imminent attack from Aliens is inevitable in the near future. Us humans need some type of defense against the all powerful aliens and Nuclear Weapons seem to be the answer according to Vladimir Putin. President Obama has no choice but to agree with Putin, because Crimea is really the projected first first hit point from the Aliens; that's why Russia is taking Crimea over and the rest of the world is just getting involved so we don't die. We don't want North Korea to have Nuclear Weapons because we believe that Kim Jong-Un is associating with the Aliens, mostly due to his oddly shaped head. The Malaysian Airline that disappeared was considered the warning that the attack is coming soon.

Russia lost in Hockey; Hopes ruined

With everyone coming into the Olympics saying that everything else wouldn't matter, as long as the Russian Hockey Team brought home the Gold on Sunday's Game. That feat was just set to shame, as the Russian Hockey Team lost to Finland this morning in the Quarterfinal Game, 3-1. This will be the 3rd straight Olympics that Russia hasn't metaled in their favorite sport. With this loss, an feeling is evanescent upon the Games for all of the Russians, as all of them were banking the Team would've metaled. As the Hosting Country, they've done pretty well in other Sports, carrying them currently in 4th place, but they've been in the hunt since the beginning. The 'so called' favorites now are between the United States and Sweden.

Trial for Boston Bomber set for November
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon Bomber, had his trial set for November. Tsarnaev, 20, from Russia, is blamed for the largest casualty attack within the United States since 9/11. During the Bombing, he and his brother killed 3 people and injuring over 260, then later killing a University Policeman trying to pursue him. Using Homemade Pressure-Cooker Bombs, United States prosecutors are requesting the Death Penalty, being that Tsarnaev moved to the U.S. over a decade ago. Defense Attorneys are trying to get Tsarnaev as much time as possible for the Trial; reviewing a ton of evidence that the FBI had collected prior and after the Bombing. Judge George O'Toole will cover the Trial.
