Janet Jackson wins award


She shouldn't really be happy about this one though. PETA has awarded her top honors as "Grinch of the year." Janet is designing a new line of clothing for Blackglama. She refuses to denounce fur so PETA's membership has denounced her. Cameron Crowe and Kim Kardashian are also on PETA's list. Grinch

Lost dog returns in time for Christmas



Dogs get lost and returned all the time. This one though was thought to be dead. Stevie Oedipus Wonder was born blind and was abused and abandoned by a previous owner. Stevie was taken in by Belinda Gutierrez earlier this year. He accidently slipped out of the house one day. The landlord claimed that the dog had died but to everyone's surprise, he came home just in time for the holidays. All of this happened thanks to an animal care shelter, a teacher, and craigslist. blind dog
