Mountain Lion Foundation: Looking For Help
The
Mountain Lion Foundation is
recruiting 4H and FFA Clubs throughout the Central Sierra as Rural Partners to
explore and implement simple and cost effective methods of preventing the loss
of pets and livestock to mountain lions. As
more and more people live and recreate in this area, interaction with wildlife
has been on the rise. As a result, almost one-third of the
mountain lions killed in California for livestock depredation are killed in the
Central Sierra.
Cindy Sheehan, the "Peace Mom" No Longer Leader of the Anti-War Movement
Cindy
Sheehan, the "peace mom" who made headlines in 2005 by staging a
marathon protest outside President Bush's Crawford, Texas, ranch, announced on Memorial Day that
she no longer wants to be seen as a leader of the anti-war movement. In
a 1,245-word letter posted on the liberal DailyKos blog, Sheehan said her campaign to end the war in
Iraq had strained her relationship with her remaining children, cost her a
marriage and left her nearly penniless. "This is my resignation letter as the
'face' of the American anti-war movement," Sheehan wrote. "I am going to take whatever I
have left and go home. I am going to go home and be a mother to my surviving
children and try to regain some of what I have lost."
