No animal left behind, especially at the Gimme Animal Shelter

You may think taking care of these animals is hard, unsatisfying dirty work, however; each animal has their own unique personality that makes taking care of them fun. Take Otis, for example, who Michelle describes as “the heart and soul” of the team. He is compared to the dedicated, optimistic Babe Ruth. Then there is Lulu, a gorgeous black lab/neufie mix, who is as mushy on the inside as melted butter (though you would never think so due to her rough and tough exterior). Then there is Breaker, who is described by one of the rescuers as, “completely gorgeous…huge…and like a big goof ball…Typical gorgeous man who doesn’t get just how gorgeous he is…I call him the Matthew McConaughey of the family.” Clearly, these characters make working with them fun and entertaining. To own one of these creatures would be like adopting a new, euphonious personality in your family!

Batman Could Fly, but He'd Crash and Die (12th July, 2012)

Scientists have finally answered one of life's mysteries – whether Batman can really fly. Researchers from Leicester University in the U.K. conducted tests on the type of cape Batman wears as he flies around Gotham City watching for mischief and criminals. They concluded that he would be able to glide pretty well, but would crash at high speed and die once he tried to land. The researchers say this is because the wingspan of his cape is too short to allow him to land smoothly. Researcher and superhero addict David Marshall said: "If Batman wanted to survive the flight, he would definitely need a bigger cape. Or if he preferred to keep his style intact he could opt for…jets to keep himself aloft."
