  • What a "debarked" dog sounds like, starring Molly Molly's original owners debarked her, and as a result she had to gasp for breath every time she barked. It was sad to see this silly Basset Hound/Golden Retriever mix struggle for breath even at the happiest of times. This is aa common side effect. We were the fourth and final caretakers for this geriatric hospice rescue. We originally intended to foster her for permanent placement elsewhere, but her health was so poor that she only lasted a couple of months. When she came to us, we knew that she loved children and couldn't manage stairs anymore. She also had an undiagnosed splenic mass, which became her undoing. She was a sweet and friendly girl. Here, Molly (de)barks, visitor Duncan tunnels to freedom, Noodle the Labrador retriever with centronuclear myopathy (CNM) whines, and Cassie the shelter dog orbits. PS - We periodically delete unconstructive trolling, so you may notice some gaps in the comments.
  • Irritating unsafe distracted unattentive self-absorbed singing bus driver.AVI Bus 6160, Friday March 5, 2010, Northbound Rte. 72, about 11:24 am How much of your fare do you think goes to settle accident law suits for Veolia/Valley Metro. Here's the type of thing that causes them. I debarked for safety reasons. Tapping his feet on the floor, doing the James Brown. What an irresponsible dumb-ass. I was in Mexico for a year, came back; far fewer riders after the rate hikes. Higher quality riders, whatever that is. All the drunks are gone, except possibly for some drivers? People walking by smiling, shaking their heads, etc. What a joke. People on their lap-tops doing spread-sheets with their "earphones" on. They should start paying US to put up with that kind of idiocy. I'm sure some drivers would eject some riders for disturbances like that. What do you think he'd do if someone jumped up and started screaming out Presley's "You ain't nothin' but a hound dog"... started spinning around disturbing everyone. Think he'd take offense? Maybe like that person was a.... total disturbance? I think so.

  • Iams: A Recipe for Cruelty (PETA) For nearly 10 months in 2002 and early 2003, a PETA investigator went undercover at an Iams contract testing laboratory and discovered a dark and sordid secret beneath the wholesome image of the dog- and cat-food manufacturer: dogs gone crazy from intense confinement to barren steel cages and cement cells, dogs left piled on a filthy paint-chipped floor after having chunks of muscle hacked from their thighs; dogs surgically debarked; horribly sick dogs and cats languishing in their cages, neglected and left to suffer with no veterinary care. Iams lied to PETA with promises to improve the conditions for animals in its contract laboratories, even assuring us that enrichment programs were already in place, but our undercover investigator saw otherwise. She fought for six months to have a single cheap, rubber toy placed in each cold, lonely kennel. This is Iams' idea of enrichment. Our video footage shows Iams representatives touring the facility and witnessing dogs' endless circling in barren cells, sweltering in the summer heat. Iams knew the truth yet did nothing to protect the animals. The dogs and cats in Iams' tests are no different from our dogs and cats at home when it comes to deserving companionship, play, a stimulating environment, and the right not to be tormented in painful experiments. Luckily, caring consumers know that advances in nutrition don't have to come at the expense of animals in labs. Help PETA force Iams to end these painful and unnecessary tests, as ...

  • Barkworks Sells Puppy Mill & Dying Dogs- December 2010 This was the noisy end of another successful silent march on December 18, 2010 organized by the Companion Animal Protection Society (CAPS)- caps- -with 130 animal lovers participating. We marched around the 3rd floor of the Westside Pavilion in Los Angeles where Barkworks is located, who has been found through investigations to get their puppies from cruel puppy mills. Our goal is to encourage Barkworks and other pet stores to stop buying puppies from cruel puppy mills that keep dogs in the harshest conditions, cruelly debarked, being bred until they are dead, never knowing what the ground feels like beneath her feet, only wire. Barkworks could thrive instead as a supply store center and have the admiration of the community instead of the disgust it has presently. Many dogs sold at Barkworks are very sick and die soon after (see for example). The march also makes a statement to consumers so that they can become educated about the misery the "puppy in the window" comes from. BARKWORKS SELLS CRUELTY! PLEASE save a life and ADOPT from a shelter or rescue. Thank you and Happy Holidays! SHAME, SHAME, SHAME! It's time to go humane!

  • Manto Mavrogenous the Benefactor In 1809, she moved to Paros with her family, where she learned from her father that the Filiki Eteria was preparing what would become known as the Greek Revolution and later, in 1818, after her father's death, she left for Tinos. When the struggle began, she went to Mykonos, the island of her origin, and invited the leaders of Mykonos to join the revolution. She equipped, manned and "privateered" at her own expense, two ships with which she pursued the pirates who attacked Mykonos and other islands of Cyclades. On 22 October 1822, the Mykonians repulsed the Ottoman Turks, who had debarked on the island, under her leadership. She also equipped 150 men to campaign to Peloponnese and sent forces and financial support to Samos, when the island was threatened by the Turks. Later, Mavrogenous sent another corps of fifty men to Peloponnese, who took part in the siege of Tripolitsa and the fall of the town to the Greek rebels. Together, she spent money for the relief of the soldiers and their families, the preparation of a campaign to Northern Greece and the support of several philhellenes. She later made a fleet of six ships and an infantry consisting of six*** companies, with fifty men each, and took part in the battle in Karystos in 1822, and funded a campaign to Chios, but she did not prevent it from the massacre. Another group of fifty men was sent to reinforce Nikitaras in the battle of Dervenakia. When the Ottoman fleet appeared in Cyclades, she returned to Tinos and sold ...

  • My Homemade Bamboo Bow And Arrow 2 Shooting at 2 pieces of 6x4 inch high density fiberboard in front of 3 layers of cardboard with my homemade bamboo bow and arrow from 15 meters. While cutting down bamboo for my early crossbows, I decided to make a simple longbow by splitting some bamboo in half and taping it together with cellophane tape. I got most of the measurements form the Boyer's Bible. The bow is about 66 inches long and the string is made from nylon fishing line. The bow pulls about 30 pounds at full draw but despite its heavy draw weight has little penetrating power. The arrows were much harder to make. I used a smaller and thinner type of bamboo for the arrow shafts which were painstakingly heat straightened and then debarked after a certain period of time as not to cause the arrow shaft to crack (some types of small diameter wood crack when debarked too early, as I learned the hard way). After the arrow shafts dried for a few months they were coated in lacquer and then fletched using shuttle*** feathers and superglue. The arrowheads I use are broadheads because their design is more durable. While shooting the bow, I use an instinctive technique which I found to be more accurate and effective than the conventional technique, though now my shooting skills are on the fritz as I have not been shooting the bow for a few months now. Photos of arrows at the end.
