Nature versus Nurture
2009-11-25 21:00:00 Is homosexuality a choice or are we born that way? 'Nature versus Nurture' is a debate that has been going on for decades - if not longer - and yet there's still not light at the end of the tunnel. Do we as homosexuals "choose" to be gay or are we born gay? National Geographic attempts to tackle this touchy subject by taking an in-depth look at identical twins, one of who happens to be gay. The gentlemen that they spotlight are Chicago natives.Personally, I think that we're born gay. Why would I choose to be a part of society that is looked upon as a second class citizen, treated with hate and disgust, denied rights at every turn and...

Why Do I Smell A Conspiracy In This !!??
2009-09-22 13:30:00 Yesterday I was shocked to find a photo in Al Dostor newspaper?s first page for kids inside the rare birds cage in the Giza Zoo !! One of these kids was carrying a very rare peacock in his hand as if he was holding a chicken or something !! Terrible photos and terrible start for the morning after being sick for the past 2 day !! The report spoke also about the poor salaries of the guards who can?t protect the cages from similar attacks , after all they take only about LE 240 monthly /LE 8 per day ? $44 per month/$1.45 per day !!? , how will they protect the cages !!?? The newspaper goes today with its reports on that black day in the Zoo with experts warning that the day will come and we will find lions roaming in our streets !!?? Not to mention the diseases the animals they will transfer !! Strangely the Zoo had much more animals in the past and they did not transfer any disease to anyone !!??

"Underwater Baited Hook" Is World Wildlife Federation's Smart Gear Winner
2009-09-20 03:08:00 At the moment an albatross swoops down to the sea for a bit of fish bait, it can go from being one of the most graceful soaring and swooping birds to being "bycatch," the term for an unintended victim of a fishery net that few birds escape. The winner of this year's World Wildlife Federation's (WWF) Smart Gear competition has tackled the problem of bird bycatch with its invention, for now called quite simply the "underwater baited hook."

a personal item of a porcine nature
2009-09-17 02:55:00 Once again, we went to the Kitsap County fair a few weeks back. Once again, a good time was had by all. While the deep fried Twinkie was surprisingly delicious, the most memorable moment occurred in the piggy barn. Isn’t this a precious scene? Besides relating to this plum-tuckered-out nursing mom (and her gargantuan nips!), I felt a deep, warm fuzziness for this: Is that the cutest or what? Look closer. Come on! That’s gotta be the most adorable pig tush in the world! Luckily for the piglet, there was a fence stopping me from reaching over and pinching that sweet little butt. It almost makes you want to avoid bacon, right? I said, almost. Copyright © 2009 Let the dog in!. This Feed is for personal non-commercial use only.

Vermont Moose
2009-08-22 02:26:00 Mad River Glen moose population has grown by two this year.One of the most frequent questions we get here at the inn is "where can we go to see a moose?" There are several areas nearby where the possibility is greater but sighting a moose is a rare occurrence even for people who live and work in the forests. The moose photo at the top of this Vermont Travel Notes blog is a good example. It was taken by a guest in early November several years ago while he was driving on Route 100 between Warren and Granville VT, a popular place to spot moose because of the swampy areas alongside the road. It's not a particularly good photo because he quickly took the shot through the car windshield. He got some better quality photos after he stopped the car and got out but by then the moose was into the woods and walking away so the angle of the photo does not work well. But he was lucky to see it at all. If he had left here a minute earlier or a minute later he would have missed the moose entirely....

Change is a Law of Nature

One of the most beautiful aspects of the Baha’i Writings in my view is that religious law can be flexible and adapt. “The second classification or division comprises social laws and regulations applicable to human conduct. This is not the essential spiritual quality of religion. It is subject to change and transformation according to the exigencies and requirements of time and place.” (Address by Abdu’l Baha Abbas before Congregation Emmanu-El, San Francisco, Cal. (Martin A. Meyer, Rabbi) Saturday, October 12, 1912. - Star of the West, Vol. 3, No. 13, p. 3) Abdu’l-Baha places principles such as justice and equality into the first classification, as part of what all religion is concerned with and which does not change. By “second classificiation” Abdu’l-Baha is...

Stick THAT in Your Happy Box!
2009-08-16 17:54:00 Having recently gone through a growth spurt, Cait was in need of some new clothes. So off to the Mall we went. We always concentrate our efforts in this one particular store, because we always have good luck finding cloths that fit and that Cait will actually wear. The tradition is to make our way around each department — shoes, pants, tops, etc.– until, at the very end, we come to the fancy dress section. This is where the fun begins. You see, Cait has always loved playing dress-up and still does. So the first time we came upon the glittering racks of evening wear, she thought she’d died and gone to heaven. When it didn’t occur to her that there was anything wrong with “just trying on the dresses,” I squashed my initial impulse to say no and instead said, “Sure, why not?” She had a blast, and I must admit so did I. Ever since, we’ve always saved time for the gowns and party dresses. The rules are that she’s allowed to ...
