Susan Chalfant; a 54-year old woman who lives nearby Longwood got attacked by a wild bear while walking her dog. Neighbours found her bleeding non-stop at the driveways.

 “The fact that we have come across so many bears with so little fear of humans indicates that these bears are highly habituated and are regularly receiving food from people,” said Dave Telesco, the FWC’s bear program coordinator.“Our staff is dedicated to wildlife conservation. Having to put down these bears is a very difficult decision, but it’s the right decision to ensure public safety. Unfortunately, the saying is true: A fed bear is a dead bear.” – Reuters

#20 Failure drives to aggressive video gamers

Researchers have found that when a person is facing failure, they turn to video games. People who are under distress of failure will turn aggressive and have no control over what they are doing. 

"Any player who has thrown down a remote control after losing an electronic game can relate to the intense feelings or anger failure can cause," said lead author Andrew Przybylski

An experiment was conducted to conclude whether or not people get aggressive by just playing video games. Participants are suppose to dip their hands into a bowl of cold water and later play simple and challenging levels of a Tetris game. They were given a time of 10 seconds to complete the challenging level and through this experiment, researchers have found out when the participants could not complete it within the time limit, they were frustrated of the fact they could not do it.

We all need sauces on our pasta and Prego Pasta Sauce is the first we'll pick up in our local supermarket. Even if the pasta sauce comes with small servings of chopped vegetables and crushed tomato sauce which can protect us from heart diseases, but it really is not so good for our health. Pasta Sauce contains so much sugar, high fructose corn syrup, sodium and fillers. To make pasta sauce last longer, they also contain ascorbic acid. Imagine glazing all of that on your pasta! 

3. Diet Soft Drinks 

Even if they claim to have said that diet soft drinks are calorie-free but do you really believe that people do lose weight by adding diet soft drinks to their menus? Diet Soft Drinks contain a different type of sugar which makes consumers wanting to have more of it. It causes addiction and diet soft drinks can cause toothache because of the sweetener.
