May 22nd News Roundup, Stuff You Don't Want To Miss
 Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Alright, who posed as Cindy McCain in Vogue?  The Washington Post has snagged a thumbnail of John McCain's wife, who has posed for the June issue of Vogue Magazine.  Photographer Norma Jean Roy took the shot.  Seriously...she doesn't look much like that, does she?



What?!  Just when we though Texas courts were doing great, a TX court of appeals ruled today that the State of Texas had no right to seize the more than 400 children from the Yearning for Zion Ranch (of the FLDS polygamist sect).  Uh...yeah they did?!

Blast.  Federal forecasters said today that the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season might be busier than normal, with a "good chance" of six to nine hurricanes forming.  Hopefully no one gets hurt!  And they'd better clear up before we get there, that's all I'm saying...because you know we're hoping to be blogging beachside soon!

Job burnout?  We totally feel that one!  CNN & CareerBuilder list the ways to recognize whether or not you're suffering from job burnout...although, it feels pretty obvious, doesn't it?  Still interesting to read, though.

Sad!!  The Tasmanian Devil, due to a facial tumor epidemic (which we first told ya' about back in October of 2007...yikes, ConnieTalk feels old!) are now officially on the Endangered Species list as of this week.  But good news...there's something you can do to help!


To read more about the Tasmanian Devil, what researchers are doing to save them, and info about volunteering and/or donating, just visit tassiedevil.com.au.  As little as $2 could make a huge difference for these cute, feisty animals!
