CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) - Thirty-five animals at a zoo in the northern Mexico state of Chihuahua have frozen to death during the region's coldest weather in six decades.
Serengeti Zoo owner Alberto Hernandez says 14 parrots, 13 serpents, five iguanas, two crocodiles and a capuchin monkey died. He said Saturday that power failures cut off electrical heating at the zoo in the town of Aldama.
Temperatures have dropped to 9 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 13 Celsius) in the area, the coldest weather in 60 years.

Dr. Strangelove wrote:On another note, it's interesting to see Republicans and conservatives issue statements of sympathy for the passing of Mandela. If the Reagan Administration and Republicans had gotten their way, Nelson Mandela would've died in prison and the apartheid regime would still be in place. Dick Cheney himself called Mandela a communist terrorist. The National Review openly defended Apartheid and said it was far preferable to even the hint of a left-wing govt taking over in South Africa.
Why do you lie, DSL?

" His ex-wife Winnie Mandela, whom he quickly jettisoned when it became clear she was a considerable embarrassment to his political career"
Is that supposed to be a criticism?

Also LOL at the pix. I was especially amused that, in that last one, Michelle was sitting between her husband and that other woman.

"I saw her looking at you."
"Saw who looking at me?"
"Don't you patronize me! I know what I saw!"
And that's when it's best to just surrender.

The historical Jesus, if he existed, is likely to have looked like he came from a family that had lived in the Middle East for 2000 years. In other words, he was probably a lot like today's Middle Eastern folks. Not the paragon of the Nordic race with light sandy brown hair that Megyn Kelly imagines he must have been. It's interesting and telling that if you look at depictions of Jesus from early Ethiopian Christians or Christians in medieval China, Jesus always has the same race as the artist.
As for Santa, what's the psychological motivation behind someone who gets pissed off at the idea of a black Santa? His origins are in european folklore, sure, but he's a mythical, magical creature.
