Bigfoot- The Chapman's Bigfoot Encounter

In September 1941, there has been a Bigfoot sighting in Ruby Creek, British Columbia, Canada. There was a report from the Chapman family of a Bigfoot sighting near their house in Ruby Creek. Goerge Chapman and Jeannie Chapman had 4 kids. The day the sighting happened Goerge was at work and their 5 and 7 year old kids were just playing in the field behind the house bordering on the rail track, when their eldest son and their 9 year old kid ran to their house to their mother telling her that they saw a cow coming out of the woods. So Jeannie went out to take a look because both kids were acting strangely scared. Jeannie first thought it was a big bear moving into the bushes, but when it got on the train tracks it appeared to her as a hairy gigantic man. They were all terrified and ran down to an old field and onto an river beach out of sight.

Talon vs Optimus Prime

Talons and Optimus Primes are agressive climbing shoes. Optimus Primes is colored yellow and Talons is colored green. Talons are laced up shoes and Optimus Primes are velcro. Talons have a soft middle for the bottom for more flexibility and Optimus Primes has a stiff bottom for more stability.

Both shoes are really good but it depends on what you use it for. For really steep climbs, overhangs, and small footholds I prefer the Talons. For climbs where you have to go sideways or for heel hooking it is better to use the Optimus Primes. But Optimus Primes are good for overhangs but talons are a little bit better. The laces for the Talons might get annoying. So I like the Optimus Prime better because it's Velcro and it has better features.

Hairdressers Can Be Skin Cancer Detectors

Scientists are educating hairdressers about skin cancer and how to detect them. There is a good chance that the scalp is largely unexamined of skin cancer. Some people go to their parlors more than they visit their doctors. More than a third of all the hair professionals have checked their customer's scalps for suspicious spots.

I think it is very resourceful of people to teach hairdressers how to detect skin cancer since they pretty much look at scalps everyday. I think it is important for hairdressers to learn how to detect skin cancer so they don't need to go to the doctors.

Ondes Jam Session

Estelle Lemire and Marie Bernard had a jam session at The SONiC Festival. They are in a musical ensemble called Either/OR. They were improvising with the ondes martenot. Ondes martenot is an instrument like a piano but with a string that makes it echo. Were playing in front of each other without any musical piece and they were just playing what sounds good.

I think the ondes martenot is really cool because it echoes. They are really good at playing the ondes martenot. And they are really good at improvising.

Bach occupies wall street

A guy named Matt Haimovitz played song on the cello by Sebastian Bach on Zuccotti Park, New York, New York. Sebastian Bach is a song composer. Matt Haimovitz is either playing the song for money or just to show off his talent to people.

I think it is good that Matt Haimovitz went to Zuccotti Park to play song by Sebastian Bach. I think Sebastian Bach is one of the best composers. I hope more people does what Matt Haimovitz is doing to make people aware of classical music.
