Missouri poacher forced to watch Bambi apart of sentence
Due to his illegal killings of hundreds of deer, a missouri poacher has been ordered to repeatedly watch the movie Bambi as part of his sentence.
David Berry Jr is to watch the Disney classic at least once a month during his year-long jail sentence. The Springfield News-Leader reports that Conservation agents have called this one of the largest deer poaching cases in state history.
“The deer were trophy bucks taken illegally, mostly at night, for their heads, leaving the bodies of the deer to waste,” said Don Trotter, the prosecuting attorney in Lawrence County.

Dementia symptoms reversed in mice, human trials next
Dementia patients could soon have their memory restored and symptoms of the disease reversed thanks to a study in Queensland.
Researchers found a way to fully restore function in mice brains. Researchers found they can blast away “toxic plaque” using “micro-bubbles and ultrasound. $10 million in federal funding will allow the method to be tested on patients.
Researchers have found they can blast away the “toxic plaque” from the brain using non-invasive, non-toxic treatments and an ultrasound.
So far, scientists at the Queensland Brain Institute have been able to inject “micro bubbles” in the brains of mice which, when used with an ultrasound, fully restored their brain function.
Professor Jugen Gotz said the breakthrough was completely unexpected.
