Scaleless Lizard Washed up on Beach

Last week in North Carolina visitors were startled to see a very strange and scary fish washed up on shore still alive. The fish was later identified as the Long-Snouted Lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox). Scientists don't know too much about the Long-Snouted Lancetfish due to the fact that it lives in the bottom of the ocean. When these fish are born they are hermaphrodites and when they mature they change to one sex. These fish are also more lizard like then fish. They are born without scales and never grow them either. The record size ever recorded from these fish is 6 and a half feet long.

8 More Girls Kidnapped in Nigeria

In Nigeria the past month over 250 school girls ages 12-15 have been taken by a suspected group by the name of Boko Haram. They are a militia group but no one understands why they have kidnapped this many girls for sure, many believe it is because of The World Economic Forum for Africa. There are a lot of protests and revolt in Nigeria  because of the lack of help from the government in helping to find these girls. The Militants are currently threating to sell the 8 girls that were most recently abducted. Officials say if these actions are the result of them trying to get the Economic Forum to fail it will keep going on and not be affected by these terrorist actions.

That Lost Plane

Yesterday off the coast of Malaysia the lost plane from a few weeks ago was finally discovered by a young American male by the name of Ben Snell. He was taking a lonely walk on the beach and spotted the wreckage off shore about 100 yards. He was staying at a beach resort within viewing distance but apparently no one saw the plane until now. When people asked how he spotted the plane he just said "Because im a f*&#@$ beast". There were no survivors on the plane and there will be a memorial for the members next week Thursday.

Curtis Carl Wehmeyer

In Stillwater, MN this past week Curtis Carl Wehmeyer was convicted upon suspicion for molesting and sexually abusing two teenage boys. Curtis Carl Wehmeyer is the pastor of a church in MN. On Wednesday prosecutors decided not to charge other leaders of the church in because some of them had at least an idea of what was going on with Curtis and those two boys. Ramsey County prosecutor John Choi said there was insufficient evidence to even show that the church leaders failed to properly report suspicions of abuse to the boys from Rev. Wehmeyer.
