...saved a few--there were probably more bison at the Bronx Zoo in 1900 than there were in all of Oklahoma--and gradually bison were reintroduced to natural habitats like the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. But it wasn't until the '70s, when ranchers began acquiring bison with an eye toward encouraging a boutique meat market (Native Americans, Old West enthusiasts, health nuts), that the species rebounded in numbers significant enough to ensure genetic diversity and protection against disasters like that 1841 freeze. Today private owners care for 97% of the world's bison population, according to Cormack Gates...

...choice of visuals is either that or cleavage. While it’s not the most groundbreaking premise for a music video, recent history has shown that the combination of scantily-clad women and R. Kelly leads to chart success (and occasionally court dates). Suffice it to say that eye candy is in plentiful supply.

With the initiative, the organization is trying to respond to a threefold jump in RIAA warning notices sent to universities this academic year, according to an RIAA press release. “Many schools have turned a blind eye to piracy,” Berman said in his statement. The extent of Harvard’s enforcement currently involves forwarding RIAA warning notices to students that the organization has found illegally possessing copyrighted material, Levine said. As of this academic year, 44 notices have been sent to Harvard students, RIAA...
...doctors began to ask themselves was what was happening to the money. They focused on Gerber's life-style. Earning $325,000 a year, Gerber had a $7,000 monthly mortgage on a $1.2 million home in an exclusive New Orleans neighborhood. A signed sketch by Picasso was placed eye-catchingly near the front door. He had two, possibly three, Mercedes-Benz, a $300,000 condo in Colorado and a $345,000 house in Florida. He also had more than $3 million in an investment fund and several hundred thousand dollars in a trust fund for his daughter. Department insiders...
