Sorry, it might be boring at the beginning. It’s not as good as my first one! For anyone who hadn’t read my last one, I’m 13. Thanks for all comments!!! Here it is!

Filled with Love
It came about early one autumn day. I was all alone. It wandered about in my back yard, very thin and very lonely. It looked at me so many times, I could hardly keep count.
The minute it reached the flower I planted in the empty field…it stopped. The coyote kept staring at it. I saw it was wounded on its back thigh and I could see it’s ribs. He appeared old. All I remember are those mesmerized eyes, fixed onto that one, blue bachelor button. He sniffed it, nuzzled it softly then walked away.
I walked into my quiet house. I picked up a small pail, carried it out to the pump and let it run under water. I returned to the house, and grabbed my gloved, planning to water the flower.
I heard something. The bucket clanging, some sloshing and something softly pressing against the stones and dirt that consisted of my backyard.
Quietly walking outside, I witnessed the most kind-hearted thing I’ll ever remember. The coyote had the bucket firmly held in his mouth. He slowly walked over to the flower he set the bucket down beside the blue button flower. He bit the rim of the bucket and started tilting it toward the flower, pouring the water onto it. He quickly stopped and replaced the bucket, back under the pump.
That night, he slept with the small flower right in front of his nose. For a week, he’d water the flower, love the flower, protect the flower, if the soil cracked up, he gently scratch at the soil and turn it up without bothering the small flower. Within that week it grew, but only slightly.
I had always gave my leftovers to that old coyote. One morning, I tossed out my breakfast, without even glancing at the flower in the middle of that vast open field. The usually starving mad coyote who came rushing up, never came. My breakfast was still out there when I threw out my lunch.
I looked over at the flower. The old, skin and bones coyote, lie dead next to the flower. I found myself flying at light speed toward the small coyote. He lay in a crumpled heap next to the blue bachelors button. I stroked his head, knowing now, that his only friend was the flower. Something wet splashed onto the tip of his ear as pet his head. I looked closer, only to see another. I now realized it was my tears. I gave a small smile, got the shovel and gently dug up the flower with its roots. I set it in the water bucket and dug the grave for the coyote where the flower was. When he was laying peacfully in his grave, I set the flower back, right on top of that old coyote.
From then on, I had refused to look out back to the flower. I closed all those blinds that day and had never opened them.
No sound came. Nothing came. I lived in the middle of nowhere with no one, but myself for company. Not until the bird came. A bird? Why would a bird be at my house? We had dry earth, no trees, nothing. It pecked at my window. The one with the blinds closed. I tore open the blinds and ran outside to greet the bird finding myself among many others. Trees, bushes, flowers, plants! Life! A whole forest! I lifted up my skirt and ran through the trees. I skipped and twirled, but something blue caught my eye. The blue bachelor button. It was at an unbelievable hight. I laughed and rolled in the dirt…caught by how moist it was, yet warm. I let it cover me up, it seemed to be filled with a magical fertilizer called love.
The coyote gave the flower the love it needed, expanding into a forest.
His love is still growing with his only friend, his only hope, his only faith. It’s growing along with the forest. The soil there is magical. It’s filled with love.

Strange noise in my woods?

Not every night, but many nights I hear this loud screeching noise. It almost sounds like a dying cat or even a dying bird. Its very scary and creepy sounding. I have woods behind my house, but I live in a neighborhood. I do have coyotes in my yard for sure but I don’t think they make this kind of noise. Its high pitched. I thought it might be an owl, and it does sound similar to a screech owl mating call, but it seems more urgent and high pitched. It also sounds a bit like the barred owl call too…not sure what it is. any help at all?

It looks as though relocation is probably going to happen after all?

After reading many reports online (not exactly trustworthy), it looks as though the Winnipeg Jets might be returning after all. Whether it’s the Coyotes or the Thrashers that might be going there. By the sounds of it, it sounds like the Coyotes are returning to Manitoba. But that also leaves Atlanta soon to be without a home. Could Quebec City possibly be there new home? After all the parading that the fans of the Nordiques have been doing,,,it seems possible.

Here’s the problem: Kansas City is barking at the NHL saying they want a team. They have the building, they have corporate money, but they also have a dark past where they once had a team. The Scouts. In the two seasons they were in the NHL attendance was low. Out of the possible 8,000 season tickets, they only sold 2,000. Is it wise to send a team back there? The NHL tried to do this for Atlanta. Give them a team where it once failed and here they are again. Thinking about relocating.

Now, what about the insurance capital of the world (Hartford)? A team could thrive there providing they could get a new building. If Atlanta could get a team back, why not them? Atlanta has a huge television market. But what good is it if nobody is going to care? Hartford doesn’t have the biggest television market out there. But the fans DO care. What is the lesser of the two evils?

Lets talk about the Panthers. I always felt if they would’ve called them Miami instead of Florida and embraced the local culture they would have done a little better. Taking on Florida colors, logo, and a Florida name. Therefore getting the city involved a bit more. What’s going to happen to them?

Then we also have two historic NHL teams in crisis. The Oilers and the Islanders. Hard to imagine these two teams relocating. I get the feeling if they move Edmonton, ten years down the road they will be moving them back. What would be the point of even moving them? Yes, to save money for the time being. Which is a good reason. But with all the money they will spend trying them in a new area, why not just build them a new arena? Same with the Islanders. Why can’t they share Madison Square Garden? The Lakers, the Clippers, and the Kings all share the Staples Center. Tough to imagine both the Oilers and Islanders not existing anymore. Erasing two of the greatest dynasty’s ever. Erasing the 1983 and 1984 Stanley Cup finals.

What a day in age we live in when it’s all about the building you play in. For those of you who don’t know, Bill Davidson (former owner of the Detroit Pistons) funded his own arena in 1988. It’s called the Palace of Auburn Hills. It was state of the art in it’s day and age and forever changed the way people looked at arenas. It must be his fault, LOL.

Feel free to comment on any of this. Maybe you agree with me. And maybe you think I’m totally lost. Maybe I am.
I agree, I feel sorry for ANY fan who loses their team. Be it Coyotes fans and Jets fans.
Another issue with KC is that they are too close to the Blues. That will effect them. The same goes for Hamilton. Too close to the Sabres and Leafs.
Winnipeg has the MTS Centre. It only seats 15,000 plus. But the teams that are in trouble can barely get to 10,000 a night. This is guaranteed 15,000 a night.

What are some good horror movies?

I love a good scare but lately I’m having trouble finding good movies. I’m not picky about what language they’re in (as long as there’s subtitles if it isn’t in English). I also don’t really care what the rating is as long as it follows the likes/dislikes I have listed below.

Likes:
satisfying endings
Linear stories
Pleasant main characters that you can care about
good use of sound/good use of silence

Dislikes:
Sexual material (This is a sticking point for me, I don’t mind nudity or romance in my movies but I don’t want to watch sex scenes or listen to dirty jokes.)
excessive use of swearing
excessive use of jump-scares
stupid characters
gross-out scenes (aka vomiting, I can handle blood but I have a sensitive stomach when it comes to other stuff.)

A couple movies I liked were Fragile, Alone (I think it was Korean or Japanese), The Eye (Japanese), One missed call (the Japanese version), Messengers, When a Stranger Calls, Lizard Baby (Japanese), Dead Silence, Resident evil 1 and 2, and Quarantine.

I really hated the movies AVP 2, Predators, Frankenfish, Resident evil 3 and 4, Shutter, Vampires, and the Beast of Bray Road.

I just got a weird phone call. possible child predator?

Alright so I just got a call from an Unknown number. I picked it up and it was a guy, he sounded australian I think. Sounded like he was a man as well, he definitely wasn’t my age (I’m 15). This is what the call went like:

Me: hello
Him: hi, is david there?
Me: no, sorry I think you got the wrong number.
Him: oh sh*t. Sorry. What’s your number so that I don’t call you again?
Me: um.. Why would you need it? Its on your phone you just called me.
Him: hm.. What’s your name?
Me: Ellie (not my real name, I lied to him and pretended to be called that)
Him: what’s your surname? I know a lot of Ellies
Me: Um. I don’t want to tell you that.
Him: alright, where you from?
Me: sorry i don’t know why you want to know this information. Bye.

I panicked and then I hung up on him. Man that was freaky. Does that sound like a pedophile to you or what?

Is this guy an online predator?

So, I befriended a guy on a social website for people interested in the same kind of music, a lot of teens use it. It’s NOT Facebook or Myspace or Twitter or anything, more of a chat forum.

He said he had a girlfriend, showed me his girlfriends account. they both have quite a bit of pictures too, although I did deal with another guy online for awhile and the way they talk is a lot alike! Now all he tells em is that he loves me, and I mean more then anything to him and even threatened suicide (I’ve never met him in real life) He keeps asking me to get on a plane and visit him and is obsessed with my relationship with my bf. He keeps trying to make us break up. He says a lot of weird sexual things,s like he had threesomes (With what? Both his hands) and he called me on the phone twice, and he sounds pretty grown. My bf even said he sounded like the other predator we were talking to. What do you think? He says he’s htirteen, and i’m thirteen too

I am new to deer hunting this year and my weapon of choice is my 1989 Jennings Compound. I read books, watched videos, and talked to old timers, but they all seem to contradict eachother and I am having a rough season so far to say the least. Any tips with anything would also be appreciated.

Coyote Hunting Centerfire Rifle?

what do you experienced coyote hunters use for a rifle when hunting coyotes? Im looking to get a new coyote rife but not sure what brand to get. I wont buy a remington because im not a fan. I dont want to really spend over $500. Im a big fan of savage and may go with savage but have also been looking at marlin xs7 nd t/c venture rifle and options as well as weatherby vanguard. Savage edge/axis im not sure about and think the stock on it looks goofy but like the price. Are internal loading rifles good like the savage stevens? you know like without a replaceable magazine or hinge floorplate. as a staniless option marlin xs7 and savage axis/edge are the best value possibly.i will either pick a 243 or a 22-250.0-300 most likely my range to shoot maybe 400 most.

good coyote hunting rifle?

deer season is almost over here in illinois, and i still want to hunt. i’ve gone coyote huntin a few times and used my yugoslavian sks. while its a semi-auto gun, the way to mount a scope on it is not very reliable and jolts too much. ive looked at AR-15 but they are out of my budget. id like a nice, true rifle that shoots at least a .223 for under $400. any ideas are much appreciated.

Hunting rifles. Which one and what do you think.?

I am getting ready for this year and next years fall hunting season. This year i have 1 white tail tag, 2 mule deer tags, and 1 bull moose tag. Next year i have a reservation for 2 caribou tags and i put my name in a draw for the bull moose tag. And a couple of coyote hunts both years.

My dad is letting me get a couple of guns, i already own the 22. lr and a 12 gauge shotgun. I was thinking of getting the 22-250 remington model 700. for the coyote. 270 win, or a 270wsm in the Tikka T3 Hunter or the Browning A-Bolt for the deer and a 30-378 weatherby mag. for the moose, im trying to get a bear tag too.

I know this is long sorry, but what do you think i should get? what do you think about my models? and what do you think about the calibres i picked?

Coyote Hunting Rifle?

I am wondering if anyone has had luck with: Marlin XL7C, any caliber. I am new to coyote hunting, and hunting all around, and don’t want to start out with an extremely expensive gun that I might mess up due to me being new and all. I have read that it is a very nice rifle, but nothing to do with what it is capable of hunting-wise. Any advice/links appreciated… heres the link: PS: It will mainly be for coyote hunting and other varmints.

Does anyone recommend any good Hog Hunting Ranches in Texas?

HI there ya all!

Can you please tell me if you recommend any Hog hunting ranches in Texas? I would really like to hear about it if you have actually been there.

Thanks!
Wow, Annie, thanks for wasting my time with your tree hugging answer. Hunting is civilized. Sorry I choose not to be a scavenger and have someone kill my food for me.
Good thing I am not jumping on your questions and shoving my unwarranted opinions down your throat.
You sure the heck are not a republican with that attitude, so why don’t you round up your party and put something together and stop killing babies.
Abortion, now that is uncivilized.

Now, anyone actually have some more responses as to where to find a good hog ranch to HUNT, KILL and EAT, while we excuse Annie to go snack on some granola crumbs?

Thanks!

What kind of hunting programs does Texas have for hunting hogs?

I just wanted to know if you need any kind of special permits or you have to hunt in certain areas Texas or what the deal was to something like this. Help me out I could really use an answer to this one. Thanks!

Good Electronic Coyote call?

I know the coyotes arent really great to hunt now, so im gonna save up and buy a decent electronic call. I dont really want to spend over $150-200, so what is a good call in that range? My friend has a Johnny Stewart but i dont think it has any clarity at all. Is there anything that sounds good?

Calling coyotes with a distress call?

Hi, I was wondering what a “fawn in distress” or “doe in distress” may sound like. I just purchased a mouth call “Johnny Stewart mac daddy coyote coxer” and it claims to be able to produce rabbit, bird fawn and doe distress calls… the instructional dvd shows how to make bird and rabbit calls but omits the fawn or deer ones, I am hunting the coyotes in an area where their principle food source is deer so I am quite interested in making that call. Can anyone describe or perhaps link me to a site on how to produce this call? Thanks

Anyone know where I could download a sound clip of a Fisher Cat?

I have what I think is a fisher cat terrorizzing me. I will be out at night smokin a cig on the deck and I hear what sounds like a coyote getting a hot soldering iron stuffed in his eye socket. I mean I am used of close encounters with wildlife and for the most part they don’t want to bother me any more than I want to bother them. It is like this little prick is stalking me. You could be just sitting outside at night and all the sudden you hear this god awful shrilling call, howl, whatever the hell it is. And it is usually within 30 or 40 feet. You can’t hear them coming through the woods like a coyote, you can hear them coming a half mile away. I am told these are violent little bastards and I wish to exterminate him or them immediately.

What is that animal like echoing sound in many country songs?

I don’t know if many know what I’m talking about, but it’s prominent in Faith Hill’s “Breathe”. It sounds like a coyote or something…I don’t know, but it has a distant echoing type of effect.

I’m very curious because that sound has been used in a few songs and I really would like to know what it’s called.

Thanks

Any video games where you can play as an animal (in a realistic/non-anthropomorphous/non cartoony way)?

I always liked the idea of a game where you could play as a predator on earth (in 3rd person), hunting prey and rearing young. Are there any games like that?
What about an RTS game where you control a colony of ants or a beehive? Anything out there?

Or is just lame Japanese animation stuff such as Tekken etc…?

Good horror/alien story?

In a world where zombies have overrun the cites and pockets of survivers struggle to survive, a spaceship crashes on earth…and the alien from the “Alien” franchise comes out and starts going berserko like it always does in the movies, etc and some become zombiefied and others just kill and survive and a second spaceship arrives, which brings predators from the “Predator” franchise who are hunting the Aliens, and some become zombies as well. So now survivors of earh must fight zombies, aliens, and predators and that’s pretty much it. I call it “The Alien Dead.” I’m visioning it as either a movie, a short story, a graphic novel (comic book), or a video story. Yes, I know Aliens Vs. Predator has been done before, but not with zombies! What do you think?
Whoops, misspelled Earth there…I know, I know…I’m not a complete idiot, you know…
Damnit! I didn’t mean as a video story there, I meant as a video game! Jeez…sorry…
Well? Is this a good horror/alien story??
Kitty, Aliens Vs. Predator is a franchise…look it up sometime, there are three movies, I think, and countless comic books from dark horse comics.

Has anyone ever seen active camouflage using regular mirrors?

This was something I saw demonstrated on Discovery Channel a few years back. It was a full body suit covered in tiny mirrors almost like sequins, for the purpose of reflecting the environment. It was a primitive non-electronic form of active camo that worked the same way the hunting blind in the link does.

http://www.ghostblind.com/flashintro/index.html

It was very effective, except when the wearer was moving, and in those cases it looked very much like the cloaking technology in the Predator movies. I’m trying to find pictures or videos of the suit, but I can’t find any mention of it anywhere. Does anyone remember this or know what I’m talking about?

Why are you vegetarian/vegan?

Is it a health choice? An animal rights choice? Maybe both? What is the reason why you are vegetarian/vegan?

I’m very passionate about animal rights but I do eat meat. I am also not against hunting. Quite the contrary, actually. I believe that in many, many places, we have eradicated the natural predators of many animals and without hunting they will die slow deaths of starvation, disease, be run down in the road and other terrible things because of out of control population. I have seen this to be true in many areas. I eat meat because I believe animals were put here for us to eat. Period. I have seen all the PETA videos and I agree that they are terrible. However, all farms are not like that. If you research, you can find which companies have no history of USDA violations. Killing anything is never pretty, that’s true. There are, however, ways to kill animals for food that are not cruel. And that is why I eat meat.

I am just wondering why you don’t. I’m not against vegetarian/veganism and I am passionate about animal rights. I just believe they were put here for us to eat and that as long as it is done as humanely as possible, there’s nothing wrong with it.
If I was lined up and KNEW I was ready to die, yes I’d be scared. But if you know anything about farming and slaughtering, then you know it isn’t like that. Do some research on it.
Actually, choosing which animals are pets and which are food is a culture thing. There are cultures that don’t eat cows, that don’t eat pigs, that DO eat dogs, that DO eat cats… this to me only proves that animals ARE here for us to eat. It’s just a cultural choice regarding which ones.

b) in a flow chart explain how nitrogen in the air reaches the caterpilar
c) it doesnt show bacteria in the picture, but they are always present in the ecosystem. What roles do bacteria have in the ecosytem
d) if DDT were used to control mosquitos in the ecosystem, which organisms would end up with the highest concentrations of the insecticide in its body? explain

Fill In blanks
(a) the area of Canada with limited precipitation, few large plants, permafrost, and cold winters is called the ________biome.
(h) Ecological _________ are graphs that can be used to represent energy flow in food chains and food webs.
(i) The _______ is the largest population of a species that an ecosystem can support
(j) The increasing concetration of a toxin in organisms as you move up a food chain is reffered to as __________
(k) At various stages in the decay process, bacteria break down nitrates to nitrites, and then to nitrogen gas in a process called _______

True or False?
a) a hawk and an owl occupy the same ecoligical niche
b) decomposers break down nitrogen-containing chemicals in animal waste into simpler chemicals such as ammonia (NH3), then other decomposing bacteria convert ammonia into nitrites, and eventually to nitrates
c) because the dentirification process speeds up when the soil is very acid or water-logged, bogs often lack useful nitrogen
d) if fertilizers are carried from the land to an aquatic ecosystem with spring run-off, the population of algae will decrease quickly
e) a rapid increase in the deer population always indicates the ecosystem is healthy
f) if the birth increases while death rate and immigration remain constant, the population will increase.
g) biotic potential is the minimum number of offspring that a psecies could produce, if resources were unlimited
h) boreal forests recieve less precipitation than thundra
i) in general, warmer biomes have greater bioloigical diversity
j) the change in vegetation as you move in latitude from southern Ontario northward is similar if you climb a mountain
k) removing plants from an area will increase the fertitlity of the soil
l) lakes that are covered by a thick layer of ice contain more oxygen than open lakes during the winter months

Chthamalus barnacles
Homo sapiens
Canis latrans
Semibalanus barnacles

Question 20
