It is beautiful but it is not a special breed and it is not worth that kind of money (just my opinion). Someone crossed 2 wild species of cat and then crossed them with a domestic cat to come up with what they called the ashera. It is just another example of "designer breeding" to make a lot of...

I forgot who it was that said, "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it". Softening the horror of history is a mistake. Those events ARE offensive and should continue to be. People need to remember correctly. We don't live in a pink and fluffy world where you can ignore...

The only thing I can say to that is amen.

We always loved veggies in my family. When I got married and had children I found out my hubby did not like all veggies. Luckily, my children did. I read (many years ago) there was a study done that showed different people can taste things that others can't taste and some of the veggies that are...

One thing to consider is that breeds like rotties, and dobermans (not pit bulls which are bred to fight other dogs) were bred to guard property and people and are territorial. The ones that attacked the children were not guarding anything. They left their own territory and went looking for...

It sounds like it all comes down to courtesy, respect for others, and common sense. It is rude to interrupt someone's conversation with an unrelated question no matter what language is used. That is something small children do and are quickly corrected by their elders. I've never been to a deaf...

I am praying for Luke too. Don't worry, Johns Hopkins is a good hospital. If you have told them about the lack of security and they don't change things you can file a complaint. It won't affect how they care for him. He is a beautiful boy. I hope he gets strong and can breathe on his own soon so...

Juliet, if he is your exboyfriend you should not be worrying about who he is friends with. Move on with your life. It seems obvious he has not been honest with you. He does not deserve your attention. Stop posting on his MySpace and be done with him. If his friend (the girl) is really a regular...

The American mustang is not native to this country. They are descended from horses that escaped from their owners or were released when the country was just beginning to be discovered. It is possible that your ranch horses will survive but mustangs are pretty tough and any new horse is going to...

Read, play with the dogs, go to the rifle range and put holes in targets, walk in the woods and take pictures, read message boards online, or cook something complicated.

The problems being talked about - discrimination, worry about light to sign, not understanding about CI - these exist because hearing people can't fully understand the deaf world. Many never will understand how much they don't understand. One way to make this less of a problem is to continue to...

The "scream" some people hear is more of a high-pitched whine. It comes from the shell. When it is heated it releases gas which causes a sound. Lobsters have no vocal chords or other ways to produce a scream. They can make soft clicking and grinding noises with their mouths but a scream is more...

Funny but I have no problem understanding "verily, verily I say unto thee" and I can't imagine how you could confuse the words "the people" with "the government" or "the military". "Bear arms" means the same today as it meant back then - to carry weapons. There are enough gun laws already to...

Be yourself. If you are an aggressive, outgoing woman then go ahead and ask him out. If you are a shy, quiet person let him ask you. That way your personality is obvious and there won't be any disappointment later. If you are both shy just play the old game of finding excuses (it works) to be...

It depends on how large they are already. In women they are mostly fatty tissue. Bigger ones have more fatty tissue than small ones. If they are big they have more fat to lose - the muscles and glands don't shrink from losing weight, the fat does. The skin takes a long time to shrink so expect...

Thank you for the welcome, pek1. I don't see how a guide dog for the blind can really compare with an assistance dog for the deaf. The duties they perform are completely different. People who can't hear or have limited hearing have very different degrees of independence and different needs and...

All your animals have beautiful, shiny coats. Even the goldfish LOL! You are taking good care of them and they are very cute.

From what I've managed to read of all this the case went to court, the dog stays (yay!!), and the landlord is very embarrassed. Since it has been a long time since this thread started I would like to know if the landlord's attitude has changed or if there has been any kind of harassment. I am so...

None of them. I want a guy in khakis or camo that can paddle a canoe and hike a mountain trail.

Horses can lay down. They can not lay down for a long time because the weight of their body is too much for their lungs and organs (like a whale on a beach out of water). If they lay down a long time they can not breathe. The owner must trim the feet because hooves keep growing all the time...
