Circulating slide presentation claims that, at around 40 years of age,
eagles go through a painful 5 month process of rebirth in which they remove
and regrow their beak, talons and feathers thereby allowing them to live
another 30 years.
The information in the message is false. Eagles do not undergo the process
of rebirth described in the slide show.

Pow Wow 原是北美原住民聚集交易货物的集会。在十九世纪初，演化为Grass Dance

如今的Pow Wow由此演化而來，成为原住民维系传统的聚会活动，他們借着歌唱、舞蹈
和手工藝品來传承荣誉等传统文化价值。
