Ohio Safari

http://abcnews.go.com/US/animals-loose-ohio-town-lockdown/story?id=14767017
Here are some things to think about as you watch the video and reflect after:
What feelings do the pictures of the animals evoke? What could drive anyone to want to own upwards of 50 animals? Was it a good idea to shoot the animals rather than have them tranquilized? Finally, what do you believe can be done to prevent this from ever happening in Ohio again?

Awkward Penguin: Why is it so awesome??

See http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/socially-awkward-penguin...

The socially awkward penguin is a very popular online meme... but why??

Why is it a penguin? Why is it a blue background? Why is the penguin looking to the left? Why is it on a square picture? Why don't I begin any of these questions differently? Why is awkwardness funny?

All of these questions have important philosophical significance.
