“Chimpanzee Rips Woman’s Face Off!” sounds like a tabloid headline. However, “Chimpanzee Rips Woman’s Face Off” is a headline about a chimpanzee attack victim that had her face and hands ripped off by an irate 200 pound chimpanzee named Travis.

Travis was owned by the woman’s employer and friend.  Travis was rambunctious that fateful February morning.  He let himself out of his house using a key, and the woman was called by her employer to help corral Travis back in to his home.

The chimpanzee became irate, for reasons that are currently not clear.  The chimpanzee then proceeded to rip the woman’s face and hands off.  You would think that the woman would die as a result of her injuries, but fortunately that did not happen.  Charla Nash – the woman that had her face ripped off – is still alive.

Hopefully, Charla Nash will be able to receive a face transplant.  Both her eyes had to be removed, so she will never see again.  Despite her tragic injuries – including having her face ripped off – Charla Nash is not angry or bitter.  She just wants to get better.

Luckily there is not a video of the chimpanzee attack.  All we can see are the remnants of the attack in the pictures of Charla Nash posted on Oprah’s Web site.

Sexercise for women is an amazing exercise method. Sexercise for women has many health benefits. Sexercise for women focuses on building pelvic floor muscles, and is formerly known as kegel exercises.

This form of exercise has many benefits for women that extend way beyond an improved intimate life.  Women who are pregnant benefit from this type of exercise because building up pelvic floor muscles helps the birthing process, and helps women return to “normal” after giving birth.

Many women don’t think about working these muscles because they are muscles you can’t see.  They don’t affect your outward appearance and other than a few health care providers and a few women’s magazines, sexercise hasn’t been widely spoken about.

Women that are interested in various Sexercise for women exercises, look no further.  Below are three great methods that will help you keep your pelvic floor muscles strong.

Straight Line Body Pose

1) Lay on your back and bend your knees

2) Raise your bottom, contracting your muscles until your body is a straight line.

3) Lock your stomach, hold for 3-5 seconds, slowly lower your body using your muscles and not momentum.  Repeat.

Puppy Pose

1) Get on your hands and knees

2) Raise your left leg, keep your thigh straight an move your calf to your right side.

3) Move your leg down into a 45 degree angle, hold.  Place your left leg down and do the same with your other leg. Repeat.

Kitty Pose

1) Get on your hands and knees

2) Arch your back and pull up your stomach. Hold

3) Repeat and return to the arched position.

Many healthcare providers also recommend that you work your internal muscles. While using the rest room, stop your stream and hold.  Remember those muscles, then do those exercises whenever you see fit.  You can even do that particular sexercise right at your desk.

Sexercise is nothing dirty.  Women should consider working their pelvic floor muscles to improve their overall health.

Charla Nash, chimpanzee attack victim, showed her face.  Charla Nash’s chimpanzee encounter was horrific.  The Charla Nash chimpanzee attack was tragic, leaving a beautiful 55 year old woman without eyes, lips, a nose, and severe scarring.

On the bright side, Charla Nash is still alive.  She’s able to walk, talk, and drink through a hole in her mouth that doctors made for her.  She was recently told she will never see again, but despite all the negativity around her – she remains very positive.

The Charla Nash chimpanzee attack happened when Ms. Nash was trying to help the owner of a 200 pound chimpanzee lure the animal back into her home.  The chimp is very aggressive, and state biologists warned authorities that the animal could really hurt someone.

Travis, the 200 pound chimp responsible for the attack, was killed by police.  Fortunately, Charla Nash is still alive.  She’s an inspiration for all those who are victims of tragedy. She doesn’t want to worry about the extent of her injuries, wants to get better, and prays every day for a face transplant victim.  If she gets a face transplant, she will also get to have a hand transplant as well.

Pictures of Charla Nash after the chimpanzee attack are available on Oprah.com. They are very graphic, so those who do not like viewing graphic photos should not view these.

Oprah chimp victim is popular. The Oprah chimp victim is the victim of a chimp attack. The Oprah chimp victim had her lips, eyelids, nose, and hands ripped off. The Oprah chimp victim took off her veil for the first time on the Oprah show yesterday.

The amazing thing about the Oprah chimp victim is her determination to do well with her life.  She doesn’t want to know too much about her condition, as she doesn’t want to worry about her injuries.  The Oprah chimp victim just learned that she will probably never see again, as she lost both of her eyes.

Charla Nash tried to help the chimp’s owner lure him back in to her home. The chimp was agressive and state biologists warned officials that the chimp was  aggressive and capable of really hurting someone.  Nothing was done and Charla’s life was forever changed.

The chimp is no longer living, as police shot it on the day of the chimp attack. The Oprah chimp victim had to move to Ohio because of the extent of her injuries.  Her daughter, who is a senior in high school, is still in Connecticut with friends.

The Oprah chimp victim is proof that you shouldn’t own an exotic animal. Exotic animals are best in controlled environments such as a zoo OR they are actually better left alone.

Oprah chimp woman is a woman mauled by chimp that was on Oprah. Charla Nash is the Oprah chimp woman, as she was mauled by a chimp named Travis.  The Oprah chimp woman is severely disfigured, and her pictures are enough to make you cry.

Travis, a 200 pound chimp mauled the Oprah chimp woman when she was trying to help the owner lure him back in to her home.  Why anyone would house a chimp such as Travis is beyond me.  Biologists warned state officials in Connecticut that Travis was very capable of hurting someone.  The warnings went unanswered and unfortunately Charla Nash became severely disfigured.

The Oprah chimp woman can no longer see. Travis the chimp pulled her eyelids off, and doctors had to later remove her eyes.  Travis also tore off her lips and here hands as well.

Charla Nash is suing Travis’s owner for $50 million. The owner of the chimp wants the claim treated as worker’s compensation claim, as Charla was her employee.

Police shot and killed the chimp.  The Oprah chimp woman is not angry about the attack.  She prefers not to ask to many questions about her injuries.  She just found out a week ago that she would no longer be able to see.

Charla Nash pictures after attack are in demand. Charla Nash pictures after attack show Charla Nash after having been mauled by a chimpanzee. Charla Nash is a Connecticut woman that was mauled by a 200 pound chimpanzee. I can only imagine how Charla Nash pictures after attack looked.

Charla Nash is appearing on Oprah today, re-sparking the interest in the mauling victim.  The chimpanzee ripped off Nash’s hands, nose, lips, and eyelids.  She is truly lucky to be alive. Connecticut biologists warned state officials that Travis, the chimpanzee that mauled Charla Nash, could seriously hurt someone.  Travis’s owner asked Charla Nash to help her lure Travis back in to their home.

Now, if someone came up to me and asked me to help them lure a chimp back in their house, I would politely decline.  If it’s not a dog or cat, I don’t want to be anywhere around it for fear of getting hurt.

Charla Nash appeared on Oprah wearing a hat with a veil across her face.  A picture of Charla Nash before the attack showed a very beautiful woman. Later in the show, the veil was removed and a picture of Charla Nash after the attack was shown.  You can log on to Oprah if you like, but I must warn you the pictures may make you cry.

The Charla Nash pictures after attack are sobering, and a reminder that it’s what is on the inside that counts.

House of Representatives

Last night, the House of Representatives passed the health care bill with a vote of 220-215.  Only one Republican voted for the Democratic bill,  Joseph Cao from New Orleans, and nearly 40 Democrats voted against it.  For a complete list of names of Democrats who voted against it, click here for the New York Times chart. 

The bill will extend health insurance coverage to 36 million Americans. Annual out-of-pocket expenses will have a limit, and insurance companies will be prevented from denying coverage for pre-existing conditions. 

The Democrats have estimated the cost for health insurance coverage at $894 billion, but CNN has estimated that it will most likely cost over $1 trillion dollars once all provisions are included.  The public option will be available in 2013, and illegal immigrants will not be covered.  Everyone in the United States will be required to have health insurance.

Health care reform is important. Health care reform is controversial. Proponents of health care reform think it’s necessary to ensure American remains prosperous.  Many citizens and politicians are opponents of health care reform, citing that it will burden taxpayers and will lead to more governmental waste.

Today, the House of Representatives is voting on their bill.  If the bill passes, the Senate will vote on the bill after the first of the year.  If the bill doesn’t pass, health care reform will remain a question mark.

What strikes me as odd about the argument of health care reform isn’t the fact that the government is trying to pass a satisfactory bill. What strikes me as odd is that politicians – both Democrats and Republicans alike – are more concerned with each party’s individual agenda than the good of American people.  American people have spoken out against the bill, so legislators need to be looking at ways to make health care reform beneficial for Americans.

How could they do that? For starters, they could work with pharmaceutical companies to set reasonable prices on prescription drugs.  Currently, Americans pay for all the pharmaceutical company’s R&D costs.  Canadian citizens and those throughout the world don’t share those costs.

Second, the administration could start to take measures to cut Medicare and Medicaid waste and fraud.  This would save millions of dollars that could be set aside to subsidize any further health care reforms.

Third, legislators could pass laws that make it illegal for insurance companies to drop individuals because of pre-existing conditions or because of extensive medical costs.  This will ensure that those that can afford health care have access to it, despite their current health conditions.

Universal health care is a great theory. However, our current environment doesn’t allow for a sensible option.  Making cost-saving changes and setting up a better environment to make sure that Americans stay healthy is what is important.

Today, the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) supported the health care reform plan which includes the public option.

“Millions of Americans will be able to reestablish control over their lives,” AARP CEO Barry Rand said, in a broadcasted news conference.

The AARP organization has 40 million members, and their support is something that President Obama welcomed.

“They (AARP) would not be supporting it if they really believed it would lead to government bureaucracy making decisions that are best left to doctors,” Obama said.

Rand said that the House plan, “protects the right of people to see the doctor of their choice” and it “aggressively cracks down on waste, fraud and abuse in the Medicare system.”

“The bill focuses on quality of care and not the quantity of tests being ordered,” Rand added.

The American Medical Association (AMA) also supports the health care reform plan.

The legislation “isn’t perfect” but is “consistent with our goals to warrant our support to keep the process moving,” AMA President James Rohack said.

In his speech today, Rand from the AATP was very critical of the insurance industry, its rising rates, and denial of insurance for those with pre-existing conditions.

“We cannot continue to let insurers price older Americans out of the market, just as we cannot stand idle while millions of Americans are forced to choose between their groceries and their prescriptions,” Rand said.
