Sustainability is one thing - but when it comes at the expense of style such as those chairs, it's not worth the effort.
Is the designer of these chairs anticipating a lot of customers with perfectly flat bottoms? They look damned uncomfortable to me; and that's before we even get to the ugly.

PHP Developer - Chichester, West Sussex
Our business is built on people. People with passion. People who want to build great solutions to tricky problems.
- Salary:
- Competitive
- Expires:
- 30.09.2014
- Job-type:
- Full time
What makes this role different from other PHP jobs is that we care about how our sites look inside as well as out. You won't find anyone pressuring you to "just make it work" because we know that this is not how you write good code. We believe that the quality of our work is the most important ingredient and that sales, good account management and good marketing strategies naturally follow.
What we've done
Some of our work you can see but there's lots that you can't.
Here are some examples of the bits you can:
http://www.sipsmith.com - Independent
Handcrafted Spirits
Batch database, History of Gin timeline, full blog. We love this brand!
http://loaf.com - Fab furniture from the
masters of Comfy, Shabby Chic
What doesn't this site do? There is a lot here. Keeping it feeling simple is the challenge.
http://www.lovehomeswap.com - Online home
Recurring payments, user generated content, messaging system and Facebook friend matching.
http://www.thewolseley.com - Iconic
Industry first booking integration, full shop, voucher system and fulfilment integration.
And some of the stuff you can't:
- A desktop application for OS X/Linux/Windows for uploading, resizing, tagging and assigning images to a website's product database.
- A niche social network built completely on Amazon's EC2, SimpleDB, and ELB platforms, scalable to two million concurrent users.
- Server management tools that allow us to deploy, update, and migrate websites, even to our development machines, through highly automated processes which control DNS, uptime monitoring, payment gateway integrations and SSL certificates.
- iOS/web-based app with integrated barcode scanning to manage receiving stock, dispatching orders, processing returns and more for our end-to-end inventory system.
How we do it
Just some of the key technologies we rely on each and every day: PHP, jQuery, HTML5, SASS, Debian, NginX, MySQL, Redis, ElasticSearch, AWS, Gulp.js, Zend Framework.
Our work goes beyond what you can achieve by adding or hacking modules into Magento or Wordpress. All our sites are built on the same D3R framework which in turn sits on top of Zend.

Does the Russian president Vladimir Putin deserve the Nobel Peace Prize?
On 11 September 2013 New York Times featured a byline in the op-ed section you don't see every day. The Russian president Vladimir Putin addressed the American people and their political leaders directly with a Plea for Caution.
The same night, the Fox News analyst Pat Buchanan praised Vladimir Putin's op-ed, calling it "outstanding", pointing out that it was the Russian president, and not President Barack Obama, who has best spoken to American opinion on Syria.
A day before that, Vladimir Putin's candidacy has been proposed for the Nobel Peace Prize. A letter to the Nobel Committee has been sent by the president of the Russian Foundation for Education, Sergei Komkov. The letter emphasized that, Vladimir Putin showed his commitment to peace in practice: "Being the leader of one of the leading countries of the world, he makes every effort to maintain peace and tranquility in his own state and actively contributes to the peaceful resolution of all conflicts arising on the planet."
It is noteworthy to mention that Vladimir Putin has already been awarded China's version of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2011.
What do you think about all that?

edward long 100+Sep 15 2013: Let's look at the most recent 8 awards with the reason they were given: 2012) for advancing peace [in a war-torn world?]. 2011) for advancing women's safety[in a world of deadly sweat shops?]. 2010) human rights in China [one-quarter of the Earth's population denied basic rights and dignity?]. 2009) strengthening international diplomacy [same person overseeing the Benghazi debacle and the Syrian crisis today-for which we are to give Putin the award?]. 2008) resolving international conflicts [in a world of unending strife and turmoil?] 2007) for advancing the fight against global warming [for a politically motivated non-scientific Leftist agenda item? 2006) for economic and social development [in an unprecedented global economic and social collapse?] 2005) for global nuclear safety [aka the Fukushima Award?]. See a trend here? It's all sound and fury signifying nothing. The Emperor is naked!
Sep 17 2013: A very good point, thank you! I completely agree with you that the Nobel Peace Awards is discredited and being used to show black as white.
My question was: Does the Russian president Vladimir Putin deserve the Nobel Peace Award? And I see now that it might be understood ironically in the opposite sense:)
So, first of all, there is no irony in my question. The objective of the question is to see what people really think about Vladimir Putin, whether they understand him as a person who deserves an "award for Global Peace" or not. In other words, what do you think: if the Peace Prize is given to Vladimir Putin, does it discredit the Nobel Prize or revives its public image?
And of course, as it is a TED conversation, I look forward into identifying the reasons why people think so or so.
Furthermore, it is useful to determine how people in general decide whether somebody deserves the "World Peace Award". What they find important today for the global peace. How they understand what it means to make peace and how to make it.
From my perspective, the world today is too close to World War 3. The issue is that the American government is simply incapable (as history shows) of resolving the global problem, but despite this fact they consider themselves as the only boss who knows what to do and how to bring the planet to peace and prosperity. The fear of being weak and the total distrust to other geopolitical players lead the whole nation in the dangerous direction. The American people have become hostages of the ill politics of their leaders. If it continues, then soon the America itself might need outside help in resolving its own psychological conflicts. Thus, maybe today America should just step back and try to work in collaboration with other people and institutions for developing peace on the planet. But do American people trust Vladimir Putin as a public figure and politician of global scale? And what they think about his official appeal to them on 9/11 of 2013?
Sep 18 2013: I see. Your question does seem to indicate a high regard for the Nobel, as if winning it really indicates great and meaningful contributions to Mankind. Thus my comment was aimed at the prize and not the man. What does Putin deserve? Since Russia is being run by crime syndicates it seems unlikely that Putin has influenced anything on a global scale. His training and experience is entirely in "closed" activities in the KGB. His political experience is limited to the municipal level and he has never campaigned for public office. His resume is lukewarm and has done nothing to promote peace. That should get the "prize" for him.
Sep 18 2013: Okay Putin sells arms to one side and they go and use chemicals ... guess what I live just across the border from these guys and they could also use them against us. So I make a deal with them that if they give up the chemicals we will get the US to call off their dogs ... and I still sell you weapons and you can shoot all the rebels you want ... just no chemicals. The US could care less about the 100,000 you shot.
Do we have a deal ... good. Time to publically spank the US Secretary of State and globally embarrass the US President ... with any luck I will be a global hero and get a lot of good press ... a Nobel Prize ... aha life is good for Putin.
The only question left is ... does Putin get the prize for stopping chemical attacks that killed 1,300 (max guess) ... or ... does he get the Nobel prize for limiting the killing of 100,000 to the use conventional weapons he sold to the Syrian Government. Both are noble causes and meaningful contributions.
I will go to church Sunday and ask forgiveness for writing this.
Oct 3 2013: (Reply to Robert Winner)
Robert, you seem to be forgetting that the casualties you are referring to are the result of an armed conflict started by armed terorrists ("rebels"), and that casualties are property of any armed conflict. A huge number of people died during WWII - are you going to go and blame the Soviet government for all casualties in a war started by Nazi Germany?
Claims that the Syrian government used chemical weapons and that it "massacres its own population" have remaind only claims, with no basis nor logic behind them (read my replies to Nadav Tropp).
Also, can you please elaborate on this though - what would have happened and would be happening in Syria if the Russian government did not sell weapons to the Syrian government?

Joey Hand and Dirk Müller finished fifth in the No. 56 M3 GT, coming up from a seventh position start.
While Manufacturer points are nice, driver points are something else all together. Auberlen and Jörg Müller are in sixth place with Hand and Dirk Müller in second. But something else is at work here, and team RLL calls it unfairness. "There is an obvious imbalance evident in the last few races and I hope that the ALMS will do the right thing. When you know you don't have the pace you have to rely on strategy and luck. This week the Corvette had an incident and we got lucky again. We need to get back to fair and equal footing and give these guys a run for their money," said Bobby Rahal, Team Principal.
Here's to hoping the next race at Road America on August 18th holds a better hand of cards for Team RLL.

My reading material/Hunger Games
November 19, 2010 - Jennifer Brookens
This week, I'm following suit of some of my other co-workers' blogs and trying to answer the question of, "Read any good books lately?"
Truth is, being a full-time reporter and mom, my reading usually consists of a) my researching, writing, editing and re-writing on a daily basis or b) reading (and re-reading) bedtime story favorites like "Pinkalicious," and "Airy Fairy," or reciting "Goodnight Moon" to my son since he's managed to destroy two copies of his favorite book so far. So reading for my own pleasure is a rare treat. But there are a few series I make room for. Each June, the latest in the Stephanie Plum series is released, and I usually pounce on that within the first week or so and manage to devour it in a day or two. They are usually an easy-read mystery, with lots of zany recurring characters that keep you reading onto the next chapter.
But during this summer's road trips (the only chance I have to read uninterrupted - unless I hide) I got hooked on "The Hunger Games," by Suzanne Collins. While some people are trumpeting it as "the next Twilight," there is more of a social/political message instead of merely a star-crossed romance. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, the North American continent is now a country called Panem, and is controlled by a cruel Capitol city hidden someplace in the Rocky Mountains. The rest of the land is split up into 12 districts, which are kept dirt poor, and the industries in these districts are set up to serve the Capitol. Along with these districts serving the Capitol, as punishment for a long-time ago rebellion, each year the districts are required to each send one boy and one girl (ages 12-18) to "The Hunger Games," a horrifying Battle Royal mixed with reality TV, where only one child survives. "The Hunger Games" is required viewing for the entire country of Panem.
Our heroine is Katniss Everdeen, a 16-year-old in District 12, the poorest of the districts. Katniss lost her father in a coal mining accident when she was young and has become a skilled hunter to help her family survive. The series begins when Katniss's younger sister's name is drawn for the Hunger Games, and Katniss volunteers to take her place. The boy drawn from District 12 is Peeta, who has had a longtime crush on Katniss, and once gave her two burned loaves of bread when her family was starving, despite punishment from his mother.
While the books are violent with the many deaths, the series is considered a young adult series, and is not too gory. The love story also doesn't go beyond a PG rating. Yet it is a riveting series for adults as well, as the series brings Katniss from being a girl with some strong survival skills to being the face of rebellion against the Capitol in "Mockingjay," the third and final part of the trilogy.
This series was rare in the fact that I found myself picking up the book and re-reading parts of it after I was finished. I found myself thinking about the series days, even weeks after I'd finished reading. After finishing "The Hunger Games," I found and read the second book, "Catching Fire" while I was still on vacation, and bought "Mockingjay," as soon as it was released. I've lent these books to my mother and some of my reading friends, and they also reported the scenario remained in their minds long after they read the last page.
Work is being done on "The Hunger Games" movies, and there is buzz about what actors/actresses will be cast. All I can find myself hoping is that it does Not become "another Twilight," when there is potential for so much more.

Hi, I'm Jaden, a professional recipe developer, food columnist and food photographer specializing in fast, fresh and easy recipes for the home cook. Most of my recipes are modern Asian! About meFast, fresh & easy recipes for the home cook.
Wednesday, August 22, 2012
Hi. My name is Coco. I love to sleep on the couch, but sometimes I don't know what to do with my long skinny dangly legs!
When it's nice outside, I like to sleep next to Buddha.
Or nap on the couch with Andrew.
And have sleepovers.
When I get in trouble, I pretend to sleep.
But when I'm not sleeping, I like to go outside and chase all the little critters on our property!
I'm always looking for a new place to nap.
Will you help me find a brother or sister? I'm a rescue dog, my birthday is on Christmas Day which makes me a Capricorn.
We've got lots of space to run around, a giant pool to play monkey doggies in the middle with a frisbee, free roaming chickens to corral back into the coop and very energetic kids to play ball with! What kind of breed can you recommend for my parents to adopt?
How exciting! I think a good way to match up two dogs who are going to be well-suited to one another in the long term is to adopt a young adult from a really great rescue. Puppies are great, but can also be somewhat unpredictable in how they'll turn out as adults — if you have a young adult, there's a lot less guesswork.
Especially when you already have one dog, a great rescue organization will let you take your time testing the dogs together, and will provide lots of training support along the way. Maybe someone local can give more specific tips. I'd also suggest adopting from a foster home so you have even more insight on the dog's personality and quirks. Best of luck!
Oh, and if you haven't seen it, Bad Rap has great advice on how to integrate a new dog into a household. It's required reading for anyone bringing home a new dog!
I would get a lab because they are so good natured and get along with everyone and every dog. They fit into your household and your interests and they like to swim. Seems like a pretty good match all the way around for what you are looking for. With a lab it wouldn't really matter the age that you get because of there temperment.
Good luck and I think you are making the right decision.
Marlene – that's not a guarantee. i've met a few ill-tempered labs, and my family had to return a lab mix that attacked everyone in the house over the span of 4 weeks.
Jaden, i would arrange to bring Coco with you to the rescue/shelter you decide to visit. she'll pick your next dog for you.
Hi there! Your doggy is so precious! We have a 2 1/2 year old female boxer, and she is just wonderful. She loves other dogs and people. We would love to get her a friend as well. She loves chasing squirrels, birds and rabbits. She is very very snuggly and loving, and everyone I know that has a boxer says the same. They have amazing personalities and a lot of love to give. Good luck!
Well I'm completely partial to rescues and to black and tan shepherd mixes. I think you should get her a little brother…I really love having a boy & a girl together. Cinder totally bossed Charley around. But then you're still outnumbered so you should probably get another girl!
What about finding a puppy that looks kinda sorta like Coco? You can't go wrong. Coco is such a sweet, sweet girl. Good luck and I can't wait to see who you adopt and to meet her too!
I agree with taking Coco! You have to touch base with the shelter about that, but hopefully they would accommodate that kind of request. Maybe checking out potential dogs, then bringing Coco to meet them at different times will help!
I also agree with taking your pup. When we found a sister for our big goofy dog, we took her to several places with us. We would think we found the perfect dog then Maya would disagree. In the end, it was her choice. The only thing I'll warn you about is making sure Coco is well vaccinated. Things like kennel cough run rampant at rescue places.
We have a standard poodle and a poodle/lab mix. Both rescues. Both were adopted when they were young adults. Both are wonderful! My favorite site was http://www.petfinder.com
Good luck in your hunt.
For what it's worth, our second dog is a German Shepherd. He was socialized from Day 1 with people, put into basic obedience classes, and just in general exposed to new and different situations. He's VERY people friendly, LOVES children (I think he thinks he's one of my kids!), and is in general a pleasant dog. It isn't just me that says so, either, so if the words of various Vets, techs, and a few breeders and trainers mean anything… He tends to strike the balance I was hoping for, too. He is such a friendly guy but if someone were to attempt to hurt us, especially my kids, his friendly disposition would disappear quickly. So he's great, even with strangers, yet not so laid back that he would be apathetic if we were in trouble. He also seems to be very in tune with how I feel, so if I feel nervous or afraid of someone he picks up on it and reacts accordingly. Worked great with a pushy "salesman" who showed up at my house late in the evening during one of my husband's deployments. Shepherds can have a strong prey drive, though, so you typically have to train them to leave other critters alone. The Shepherds I have known – mine included! – are typically very easy to train. That's always a plus!
Downside: They tend to shed a lot. Also, the loyalty and devotion can be overwhelming when you find yourself practically tripping over a big, furry roadblock who wants to be with you every second. But that could be any dog and not just Shepherds!
The most important thing to keep in mind is that you need a breed that does not have a strong prey drive. There are many breeds that would chase and kill your chickens, either on purpose or just being too playful. We have an English bull dog, a collie and a golden retriever and none of them have any interest in the chickens or other fowl. We could not trust our terrier (now deceased) with any of our fowl and as a child we had a German Shepherd that would kill chickens (on purpose). I would stay away from anything with a terrier in it because they have a strong prey drive but on the other hand you wouldn't have any rats or squirrels either.
We lost our 8 year old collie recently (hardest thing I have ever gone through) and we decided to get two puppies (another collie because I have to have a collie and a golden retriever) and it was a great decision. They are best friends and keep each other company. They are both very loving dogs. She is my first golden and what a great dog she is becoming. And the collie is my princess.
Enjoy your new puppy. I am still really glad that your kids got to grow up with a dog.
I volunteer at my local SPCA and from what I can see, it's not so much what breed, but which dog will fit best with your family and Coco. If you find a dog that seems to fit your family you should be able to bring Coco to meet with the potential adoptee to see how well they get along. If you're not 100% sure, see if it's possible to foster-to-adopt.
And kudos for adopting a rescue! :))
Jaden, Your choices are many. Beside the purebred dogs, there are hundreds of shelter dogs that need a loving home. I would just recommend you go with your heart, you will know the right dog when you find him/her.
I would strongly recommend a puppy, in spite of the extra work involved, With a puppy, you have a built in nursemaid with Coco. She already knows the rules of your household. She will teach these to your new puppy. (She will also teach the puppy some things you would rather she not pass on, but that is the joy of our four legged friends.)
Good luck and enjoy the experience.
Mostly the advice given so far has been sound- bring Coco with you and keep in mind what you guys would like to do with regards to upkeep. She's clearly not a high maintenance dog in terms of coat- did you want to say with that or go with something that needed more grooming? How much work did you want to put in in terms of walk and exercise? What kind of energy level are you okay with? IE- Husky is HIGH ENERGY, and bulldog or basset is low log energy.
Also keep in mind that finding a male dog is best. Female-female dog pairings can work, but generally you can't go wrong with male-female. It pretty much prevents the issue of same sex aggression. I'd also argue not to go with an extremely old dog, look for one about the same age that has a similar play style. Make sure too that the dog you get is GREAT with kids!
If you have a breed preference, don't think you must go to a breeder too. Nothing against great breeders, but there are many great breed rescues, especially if you have your heart set on a popular kind. Boxer, lab, golden retriever rescues are all very commonplace, and many of these dogs have absolutely nothing wrong with them at all!
I personally have a german shepherd I got from a rescue and adore her. As long as you're very aware of what you're willing to put in and what you need, you'll be able to find the right pup for your family!
oh, definitely agreed on avoiding "drivey" dogs, unless you plan on building a fence tall enough to contain the dog. training only goes so far.
Man you just mentioned chickens- also keep in mind to get something with low-to-no prey drive. Anything that wants to eat the chickens too much or bully them is probably not something you guys are keen on!
Beautiful photographs of Coco, Jaden! She's a very lucky dog to have found you and your family. I agree with the advice about avoiding terriers and terrier-mixes…they would make quick work of the chickens. Check with your home owners insurance carrier…some breeds may cause cancellation. I learned that recently from my insurance agent friend. BBDs (Big Black Dogs) are so numerous in shelters and rescues and often get overlooked…adopt a young BBD…good Karma!
A good rescue shelter will work with you and help you to add another great dog.
I heard that if you have a male cat you should adopt a younger female cat. I am not sure if dogs are the same but it worked for me with my 3 kitties.
Good luck to you and hooray for rescue adoption!!!
I have no doubt a Sheppard is what you need. Sheppards build Life long bonds to family and animals, exceptional protection, and herding skills. I speak from experience. No sneaky little varmint will touch one feather on my chickens and when they stray too far Fuzzle (sheppard) will gently grab them and bring them back!! So much intelligence and love in one furry body. Of course you must introduce the Sheppard to the chicks first.
On a side note I have no idea how I stumbled on your site but your recipe's are DELICIOUS! Thanks.
Before we got our second dog, I did quite a bit of research, and something I came across is that two females are the combination most likely to have major conflicts, so I would suggest a male dog. I think any breed can be great, it just depends on the individual, but I bet a herding dog like an Australian shepherd or collie would ADORE your set-up!
I can second the vote for getting a boxer. We've had three so far, and they're fantastic family dogs. And there are boxer rescues all over the country, so you can find one near you. All our boxers have been great with kids, they love to play, and they're EXTREMELY energetic. As an added bonus, they're just plain goofy and fun.
We owned bulldogs for 25 years. Now that we're retired we would love to have another one, but the price of them is very high.
Our first one was $350 and our second was $1100. But now there
some of them are $2000 to $4000. Maybe someone has one for less. It will have a loving home.
Your place sounds so wonderful! If I change my name to DOG, can I come and live with you? I love to nap and would be a perfect pal for Coco. I'm already housebroken and promise not to bark.
Seriously, the issue is not the breed. It's the disposition and temper. I have known miniature canines that terrorized other dogs and people too. I have also met large dogs that were gentle giants despite the breed reputed to be nasty.
That said, Irish Setters are wonderful.
I completely agree. Boxers are the sweetest dogs ever. They will even nurture cats and squirrels. They will wiggle themselves inside out just to say hi when you come home after a five minute absence, Mid-sized, they are big enough to be a dog yet not so big they intimidate children. They smile all the time and will always be there for you. Smart enough to train easily. A bit overly energetic until they are around two, but so adorable you forgive them for their wild exhuberance. I am generally not a dog person but a boxer can put a smile on my face after a bad day.
You are so lucky, she is a beautiful dog and probably would love a buddy. If you have a lot of space for exercise that's a plus too. In my adult life we've had 2 shelties, that , while smaller dogs, have big personalities and LOVE to run and 'corral' things. We had a female, then a male, both were smart and sweet and great companions. The negatives, they have a long coat and shed about twice a year…nowhere nearly as much as my lab, which I think is daily! Shelties are also prone to barking, but mine by no means were excessive barkers…they barked when there were knocks at the door and if they were in the yard, if someone walked by the fence. We 've also had two labs as I raised them for 'Leader Dog s for the Blind' One was a female that was half lab and half golden retriever. She was really great and did make it as a Leader Dog, she lives in Milwuakee with her person. My other candidate was a male black lab, and while he's very sweet, he did make the cut because of certain phobias…doesn't like stairs. While I know, and have been around labs who are high energy, he is not, he's very lazy. We walk him every day, and he likes it, but I can't see him running through fields….that's probably unusual for a lab. he's very gentle and tolerant of the little ones in our neighborhood, even though our kids are grown and he has little exposure to young ones. We also now have a mini American Eskimo…smart as a whip, sheds like a fiend, and is a bit of a barker. (apparently, the 'spitz' breeds all are) She's also pretty bossy with the lab who is 4, and he takes it. While I love her, I don't think it's a breed for everyone. She is also great with the neighbor kids. She's just a year, so hopefully she'll settle down a bit:) One of my favorite breeds that I've never had, but have had friends who have is the German Short-Haired….the ones I've known have all been sweet….and they love to run! They could definitely keep up with your current dog. I've never met a golden retriever I didn't like, but again there is a little more maintenance with the coat. I agree with one of the commenters, it would probably be best to get the opposite sex, that has worked in our household. Wow, SOOO many great dogs out there….when you meet the one for you, you'll know it! One more thing, I have mixed feelings about puppies, now that I've been through it 5 times, next time I'm going for a young adult. While some could have issues, I feel like the rescue organizations are pretty honest with you, they don't want to take back a dog they've placed. Many are trained, have settled down a bit and are anxious for a home:) Good luck!!
We do dog rescue and fostering here in the Midwest, and have placed and taken care of over 50 dogs in the last several years. Of all the breeds that have enjoyed being outside; have easy-to-take care of coats like Coco, and want to please you, the lab is the one. To this day I kept the Lab/Bull Mastiff mix we got, and have the most loyal, fun to be with playmate! Try to choose a black dog from the rescue this time — they're harder to place and end up getting passed over all the time due to superstition. BLACK DOG RESCUE
We have had many kinds of dogs and have worked with many other types of dogs. Out of all the dogs I liked was my 3 rottweilers. They are very very good with children. They love to be loved and will put up with just about anything (I would be wary if rescuing one that has been abused or taught to fight other dogs). They are very easy to train and will think they are lapdog size.
I would not get a lab or golden retriever. They are great family dogs, but the down side is they are not very smart so it's mostly conditional training. They are the most common in the puppy classes and the sort of people who get them are lazy in training, want them as their cuddle dog, or cannot be the dominant one. It might just be where I live too O_O
ANother good dog for space would be some sort of cattle dog. They would be wary of predators of the land and protect their herd. They are also great family dogs and very smart. Some times too smart and need things to do.
I would definitely have sessions where your dog and the rescue dog had an hour to get to know each other in a controlled environment.
I would definitely say LAB. I did not know how good and patient a dog could be until I got mine! He is a lovely companion.. good with all animals from chickens to horses to cats to other dogs.
He is a very good dog.. except for the one time he chewed up two cell phones, a pair of prescription glasses and a remote control.. but really.. it wasn't his fault we had them laying out and they smelled all like us.. and nom nom nom.. thank goodness we were both ready for upgrades on our cell plan:)
Oh Jaden I'm so glad to hear that you're looking to adopt again. Coco is such a beautiful girl by the way. I've worked at animal shelters for a majority of my life and I'd suggest you work with a shelter or rescue to help find a good fit for you. Many of them allow you to bring Coco with you to see how she and a potential new playmate get along. It's always great for two dogs to meet on neutral territory too so this avoids the problem of having to introduce them on Coco's territory. Good luck in your search, can't wait to read what you all figure out!
I have a lab and he is great. He was crazy the first year and very hyper. I've heard great things about huskies. I recommend you should bring Coco to see how she does. Good luck!
The best way is to take the whole family – especially Coco – to your local shelter or rescue. This way, you can see how a pet responds to another dog, children, etc. Each breed, & mixed breed, of dog has its' own good & not so great traits. Working in the veterinary field, I can say from experieince that labs, although wonderful, loyal pets, tend to consume things they shouldn't. The majority of my foreign body removal surgeries have been on labradors. That's not saying all labs are billy goats in disguise. With correct & consistent training, any pet can be an excellent family member.
Hi Jaden. Try not to focus so much on the breed of the dog because there can be so much variation in temperament. One person mentioned getting a lab because the get along with everyone. Yes, that's true for some labs, but there are also the ones that are very territorial or high-strung, or dominant, etc. Keep an open mind and heart, and talk to a rescue. They will know their dogs best, and they will be able to guide you to the right choice.
Rescue or adopt a pit bull don't be afraid of the breed I rescued 2 pit they are the best dogs in the world my son works for a shelter an he works with them all the time good luck Joe
Okay – I've been through this several times and what has always made the most sense to me is to choose a dog with similar size and activity level. I adopted a Border Collie cross boy last summer and we ended up rescuing a Collie this spring. They are approximately the same age but I've adopted dogs who are two years apart with similar size and activity needs and it worked out well. One of the really nice things is that the same size dogs need the same size food rations and you can walk / run them together easily. My dogs love each other and play well together and also keep each other occupied. The only caveat with two similar in age, especially puppies, is that it is very difficult to train two dogs at once. Much easier to have one trained and than train another puppy. The older dog will actually help do most of the training of the little pup as they will model their older siblings behaviors.
Good luck. I love watching my two furry babies play together and sleep together!
I think you should look into getting an English Shepherd, which is a type of collie herding dog. They are all round guardians, of children, animals and property. They are not well known dogs but there are a lot of people out there doing their best to rescue the breed which was in danger of disappearing back in the Eighties. Another name for them is American Farm Collie. They are related to the Australian Shepherd which is not from Australia, and nor is the English Shepherd from England. Some people are crossing them with the Rough Coated Collie, in order to strengthen that breed which can have a lot of health problems, esp. with eyes.
Go to English Shepherd.org to read about them. Maybe you could rehome one, or alterntively get a puppy to train. A good breeder will find you one for your situation. They can have high/medium/low energy.
If I had chickens and children then I would look definitely look into getting one of those.
Good luck with your search!
I forgot to say that Susan, from the Farmgirl Fare blog has a half Australian Shepherd/half English Shepherd called Lucky Buddy Bear. He is black and tan. Go and check out her blog.
Cesar Milan, The Dog Whisperer, says to MATCH THE ENERGY. When looking at that first, it eliminates some dogs you may have otherwise considered.
I'm not sure about two males that some have recommended but I know there will be exceptions. When I was getting two dogs myself (from puppyhood) I had decided on a Chihuahua because they were so small – it was my compromise with the universe regarding my allergies. The males of that breed are the cuddly ones, females the divas '-) so I got two males to start with [even though I was concerned about the usual 2-males-will-fight thing but hoped it was different because of this breed's personalities] and it did not turn out well at all, albeit they were both fixed at 6 months they just fought most of the time.
I re-homed one of them [he did fabulous on his own in his new family!] and got a female pup instead and they are great together. They are both fixed, no "back-yard breeding" happening! My late husband and I used to be in dog showing and I learned [too] much about that nonsense. SPAY AND NEUTER EVERYONE! There are already too many dogs in the world, you can tell by the number in North America that have no homes and get put down. And if you find homes for your's, you are taking away potential homes of dogs that needed it or they are put down.
I am IMPRESSED you are getting rescue dogs. My brother and his wife are both doctors and can afford anything they want and they've just rescued their 2nd dog and the first one has had a very long life
I've had my little dogs for 5 and 6 years now and it has turned out wonderfully and I did not develop allergies either. For anyone who thinks my idea is a good one for them, be aware that "real" Chihuahuas are [breed standard] supposed to be under 6 pounds. Do not get a "teacup", it means they take runts with hereditary problems and breed those problems into future generations. "Backyard breeders" often / generally have traits (ie: extra volatile) because of their breeding mistakes. "Purebred" doesn't mean anything either, there have to be things in place for that to be worth anything. And "no", a female does NOT need to have pups to be full-filled. Your dogs (male and female) have a much lower chance of things like cancer if they are fixed young. PLEASE GET A RESCUE DOG instead of buying a pup off these people who think they should breed whatever dogs they ended up with.
Breeds that get popular because of TV shows, movies (usually) get over-bred and then you may be getting a pile of problems not generally associated with that breed. Also, go be around the breed you want IN PERSON. It can radically change your idea of wanting that breed in your family. It just means some breeds are more suited to your family than others. Only reading about a breed in a book can get you into trouble when you have the real thing in your home. That's a lesson I've learned the hard way in years gone by. Even though I have Chi's now, when I was younger it would have been the wrong breed for me. So do your research and open your mind; if a breed description keeps saying they are aloof, get that in your mind before it arrives on the plane, if you like cuddle pets. A couple of other breeds, when I visited them in their homes, I knew I could never handle them – it's an interesting exercise.
I apologize if I've upset anybody with my statements but if I was someone like Betty White she'd be saying SPAY AND NEUTER too
Jaden – Steamy Kitchen – you are awesome!
Pingback: Doggy advice? | Steamy Kitchen Recipes | wowadvice.org
Get an American Blackmouth Cur. Best dog I ever had,she loves the grand kids , the UPS man &guards my chickens. You can buy from a breader or rescue one contact Mrs. Murphy in Mobile, Alabama.
Good dog
I came over here because I saw these gorgeous egg rolls in my e-mail, but your babies (doggies) are so adorable I got distracted.
I had a basset hound for 14 years and she was the friendliest dog ever. I have two doxies now and we got them when she was about 12, the three of them were the happiest campers ever.
I keep saying two is enough, but now I want another.
Good luck, hope you find the right fit.
We have a bull mastiff which we adore, but you have to be on board with basically having a very BIG dog – ours weights 170 pounds – and he is underweight! But he is just a big baby – Has great personality, and is wonderful with kids and very easy maintenance. We also have a rescue which is part collie and I think a bit of shepherd.. she is also great too, but she is older and wiser. Other dogs that I had growing up and can totally vouch for them – Boxers. They are great family dogs, easy maintenance, and just plain fun and so easy going! Florida Boxer Rescue is a great place to start: http://boxer.rescueme.org/Florida.
And like many had said here, the best way is to introduce Coco to a new friend and see how the match up..
I cannot wait to see Coco's new buddy!
Weimaraner rescue – they are the world's best dogs.
I agree with EVERYTHING you said, Amy, about shepherds. Jaden, you will not find a more loyal dog than a shepherd and so easy to train. I have had 3 shepherds through the years and they adapted easily to every dog they were paired with – even my brother's pit bull that we babysat for 3 months. One of my GS loved cats, one tolerated them, and one thought they were great fun to chase, so no help with the cat thing. Major drawback was the hair. They shed a new dog everyday. Lots of vacuuming. As a lifelong dog lover, I can tell you the traits of every dog breed. You should talk with a local shelter because they can physically help you pair your baby with a new friend. They should meet each other before bringing the new friend home. Good luck to you.
Jaden, one more thing – my son has a Rhodesian Ridgeback/Lab mix. We babysat her for 2 yrs when he was in transition. Best dog I have ever known – social and energetic. Ridgebacks were bred to hunt lions and were "keepers of the castle", so they are protective in a quiet way (she used to do a bed check every 3-4 hrs at night, especially if there were guests). Long legs, some shedding. Smart and easy to train. Got along with EVERY dog she came in contact with, very social. Great mix of breeds. If I ever come across this same mix of breeds . . .
Hi Jaden,
all of the above and then some – most of the comments have been very sound and leave you exactly where you started – you have to make up your own mind!
I have fostered over 150 dogs of all breeds and sizes and when it comes down to it my fave pair was a little Terrier bitch and a big Boxermix male. She had him wrapped around her little paw and he did whatever she told him to do – very funny to live with. If you think you'd like a smaller dog to go with your big one, pls consider Cocker Spaniels or King Charles Spaniels. Many are absolutely wonderful dogs who want nothing more than to please their people. Also look at the Hound group. Some of my best dogs were black and tan hounds. Not a mean bone in their bodies and the best companions to children ever. I have a feeling you'll be spending time on Petfinder.com.
And Happy Birthday while I am on here – many happy, healthy ones more!
i have no advice for you…im' not a dog person/owner. But i LOVED the photos!
BEAGLE !! I have had several – they are happy, loving, love children, love to romp and play – very social. Love other dogs. They are suited for outdoor running and romping, and also love to be inside. You can't go wrong with a rescue beagle……
Long time lurker….and I'm on the Boxer bandwagon!! We have two – one we got from a boxer rescue, the other from a breeder. Both are phenomenal and very happy dogs. Probably wouldn't protect me from a flea, but then again I figure that's what the firearms are for versus our pups! Ha! Good luck on your search!
As someone who works at my local humane society, I do have some tips for you!
1. First, it's not really about breed, but about dog. While some breeds are more inclined toward specific behavior traits, it's not always a given. For example, shepherds and pits have pretty high prey drives typically, but not all shepherds and pits are going to go after other smaller prey animals (i.e. chickens, cats). I've found that pits can be some of the most loving dogs around! It's only in recent times that they've become these horrible attack dogs. Go for the individual dog, not the breed! Pointers and labs tend to be very hyper the first few (3-4) years then settle down. Huskies love to escape! We get 90% of our huskies and husky mixes as strays or because the continuously escaped. Herding dogs (http://www.akc.org/breeds/herding_group.cfm) love to chase things (kids, chickens, I've even heard of them rounding up loose furniture to the center of the room!). Shepherds and huskies are big shedders.
2. In my experience, opposite sex, smaller, and younger dogs are often more accepted in a new home. Puppies can be nice in that they are usually more submissive, but they are also more annoying to an adult dog. Puppies want to play, play, play and adult dogs generally don't. But the nice thing about having an adult dog already when getting a puppy is that the existing dog can help train! They help with basic good doggie manners, house training, etc.
3. At my shelter we do allow prospective adopters to bring in their own dogs, but we have found that it often does not give an accurate idea of how the two dogs will get along at home. Your dog can be extremely stressed by coming to the shelter. It will be filled with smells, sounds, and sights that s/he won't be ready for. I know a lot of dogs get really freaked out by the floors in our shelter. Also the smell of a shelter often is similar to that of a vet's office – and many dogs don't like the vet! So keep in mind that your dog (and the shelter dog) will not act the same at the shelter as they would in a real-life environment (home). We often encourage adopters to introduce the new dogs outside. You'll definitely need to introduce them outside the home before bringing a new friend home – that way your dog can get to know the dog before bringing it straight into his/her territory where s/he will be defensive immediately – walks are great for this too! Leash up both dogs, allow them to sniff each other and give them time. You'll need to keep them separated when you're not there to supervise (this includes night time!) and you might want to think about keeping leashes on one or both of them – that way, in case they do get into a scuffle, they'll be easier to pull apart. There will be some growling and some snapping, but that's normal; they have to figure out the hierarchy with the new friend.
Good luck on your new family member! In my opinion, shelter dogs are the best!
The finest dog I ever had was a pit bull/Lab mix who was as loving, smart(!), and gentle as could be, so I admit to being somewhat prejudiced in favor of that particular combination (other folks I've known who had dogs with that mix tend to concur), but I agree with those who have advised you to vet individual dogs. You can't judge a book by its title and genre. You should definitely see how the dog gets along with Coco and also hear from the rescue/shelter about what they know of the dog's temperament and tendencies.
You might want to consider an Australian cattle dog (sometimes called a red or blue heeler). They love to run, herd and chase frisbees and ball. They can keep up with just about anyone and because they are high energy they often need new homes when their old families discover that a dog kept in a house all day with no play leads to destruction! But give them a task and lots of space and they will be loyal forever. Very smart and trainable too!

The Best of a Bad Situation: 20 Bucks in 20 Years
Category: The Off Season
The immortal tandem of Blue Edwards and Brad Lohaus represented the Milwaukee Bucks in the original NBA Jam They weren't particularly apt at three of the four things required to win at NBA Jam: shooting threes, dunking, or requiring the assistance of firemen. Computer-controlled Lohaus was great at the fourth thing: getting conspicuous no-calls on defense. They were essentially the worst team in the game.
The real life Bucks around that time weren't much better. In the 1991-92 season, the Bucks missed the playoffs for the first time since 1979. Two seasons later, they'd bottom out with a 20-62 record. Since then, the Bucks haven't been that bad, but they've been pretty mediocre with flashes of hope every now and then.
It's the flashes of hope that this next Bucksketball series is dedicated too. The 20 best Bucks since 1991, compiled, organized and written about for your reading pleasure. The list is mostly filled with guys that tantalized and teased us with potential, but never fully delivered and guys that just busted their asses off with everything they had which was never enough. There are a few genuine greats near the end though.
I'm not going to lie. This list is underwhelming. Sometimes you might think, "Why'd they put him so high!" But then you'll look back over the last 20 years and realize, "Oh, that's why." Personally, I still can't believe Ervin Johnson is as high as he is, but then again, I don't know where else to put him.
Disclaimer: this list isn't perfect. It was formed by guys who might have a bias or two and misremembered a play here or there. It'll come as no surprise that the list skews heavily toward the much loved Light it up! Light it up! teams at the turn of the millennium. If you don't think Benoit Benjamin got his due, then speak up. We'd love your comments! Share your rankings too. Keep it civil.
The following list is full of a few honorable mentions. These five guys aren't necessarily the next best five. They're just random guys that are definitely in the top 40. In no particular order:
Honorable Mentions
Terrell Brandon was born with crooked legs. He's also a two-time All-Star. He once graced the cover of Sports Illustrated along with the words, "The Best Point Guard in the NBA." And at one point, he had an absurd 6.14-to-1 turnover ratio.
None of those things happened when he was with the Bucks.
His nickname, "The Lone Ranger" originated from a propensity to stick to himself. That attitude only fueled rumors that he didn't want to be a Buck. He was only one of many.
Brandon was brought in a three team trade along with Tyrone Hill and a first round pick that turned into Pat Garrity. That trade marked the departure of Vin Baker and Sherman Douglas. He left in the same fashion, departing with Elliot Perry to bring in Sam Cassell, Paul Grant and Chris Gatling.
Bucks Totals: 65 games, 1044 pts, 491 assists, 181 turnovers
Luke Ridnour is fondly remembered by a lot of people. I don't know why. Yes, the Bucks struggled to score after he left. No, it wasn't because he left.
(Obligatory statement that his defense is garbage).
Ridnour was a microwave. He could be counted on to score points in bunches when no one else could. He really did make Brandon Jennings rookie year much easier. He ate up minutes that needed to be filled and he did so ably. Plus, Jennings confidence must have skyrocketed after practice of crushing Ridnour.
Bucks totals: 154 games, 1540 points, 689 assists
Joe Smith will never quit this game! Last seen riding the Lakers bench late into last season, Smith continues his quest to play one minute for every NBA team. Actually, that's not true, but it is a great idea. He's already played for 12 teams, why not go for it?
Smith has a knack for showing up either too late or too early to the party. For the Bucks, it was too late. Smith was one of the pieces exchanged for Cassell and EJ over to the Timberwolves which spurred a short stint of playoff success in Minnesota. Smith brought more woe with him to Milwaukee, but he performed just like the rest of the honorable mentions: ably.
Bucks totals: 194 games, 2022 points, 1414 rebounds
Darvin Ham is the sixth player to have his name called in the 2001 version of the immortal Light it Up! Light it Up! song (poor quality video, if someone finds a good version, inform me immediately). Objectively, this makes him the sixth best player in the history of the franchise. But as previously mentioned, this list is filled with biases influenced by playing time, statistics and what happened on the court.
Every Prince Fielder at-bat reminds me of every Ham drive down the lane: do whatever you're doing as hard as you can with as much reckless abandon as possible. The philosophy behind this approach is that it will inevitably lead to good times. I dig that philosophy.
Bucks totals: 134 games, 589 points, 294.5 dunks
Bango was disqualified from consideration in the top 20 due to the fact that he isn't a player. Sometimes I wish someone would use Air Bud logic(there's no rule that says he can't play!) because Bango can really throw it down. And isn't that the only reason that Dan Gadzuric ever got playing time.
Bango is awesome and is consistently among the 5 most exciting Bucks year in and year out. After tearing his ACL at the 2009 All-Star game, Bango came back with a vengeance the next season. He's thrown down insane dunks, attacked multiple Atlanta Hawks fans, saved the Energee! dancers and handily won the mascot of the year award. Statistically, it was the greatest season a mascot's ever submitted as he finished the season with a 41.7 MER (Mascot Efficiency Rating) which is calculated as such:
(Dance moves that'd make Kevin Bacon Jealous x (Combined Height of Dunks + Number of Flips)^Miles of Smiles))/Opposing fans Accosted.

Moses Malone. My memories of him are not the boar dominating center he was for the Rockets and 76ers, but a tired, proud man who couldn't bear to leave the game.
That he could put up 15 and 9 at the age of 206 was amazing.
Umm….hope I don't sound like an idiot but.
the list will be posted later right? This is just the intro part? or is there a link or something i should be clicking…
How could you include Ridnour and Ham but forget about Marty Conlon?
Fred Roberts better make this list!
Does anyone else remember the commercial with Jon Barry (or maybe it was Marty Conlon) standing on the sidewalk in front of a really nice sports car talking about a bank? Then at the end of the commercial the car's owner walked up and drove away. It was fantastic.

Lenovo's 21.5-inch IdeaCentre B305 is a mainstream home entertainment all-in-one that can't quite overcome its small screen and underwhelming features. You might have interest in this system if you want a self-contained budget gaming PC, but it has little else to recommend it.
Pricing not available
In the right configuration, Dell's Inspiron Zino HD will fit seamlessly into your living room as a PC-based video source. Due to its uneven handling of even standard-def video, this $468 build isn't quite up to the task. Fortunately, Dell offers the right upgrades to get you to the hallowed ground of PC-based video content--just be prepared to spend a little bit more to get there.
The entry-level Acer Aspire AS5532-5535 can keep up with neither dual-core laptops that are still moderately priced nor with a competing single-core entry-level laptop from Compaq.
Pricing not available
Acer's auto-branded Ferrari One FO200 may look like an 11-inch Netbook, but it sports a dual-core AMD CPU and a mainstream laptop price to match.
AMD's new high-end dual-core CPU offers plenty of bang for the buck, outpacing Intel's Pentium 965 Extreme Edition, which costs $200 more. Sounds like a good deal, but wait to see what Intel's next-gen Core 2 Duo chips have to offer when they debut later this year.
AMD's Athlon 64 FX-62 helps usher in the new Socket AM2 chipset, but incremental performance gains make AMD look vulnerable to Intel's next-gen chips, due later this year.
The latest high-end chip from AMD introduces dual-core processing to AMD's ultra-high-end enthusiast FX line. But while the Athlon 64 FX-60 set new records on our current benchmarks, the chip doesn't play well with Nvidia's graphics cards. Assuming that this issue gets sorted out, the FX-60 shows great promise.
Pricing not available
The highly configurable iBuyPower Value Ultra can be set up to emphasize performance or price; this back-to-school configuration keeps a foot in both camps, but a better budget deal lurks elsewhere.
Pricing not available
eMachines has had a great run with its budget line of PCs, but thanks to aggressive pricing from some lesser-known competition, we can no longer give it the budget PC nod. The eMachines T6536 will serve you well as a basic computer for now, but its weak underpinnings limit its life span.
Pricing not available
After a slight step back last quarter, eMachines regains its footing with the T6532, a budget PC that delivers more for the money than competing budget systems, including the T-series model it replaces.

Greece, Goldman obscure healthy earnings
The big headline stories are obscuring the best group of earnings I've seen since the 1990s.
By Jim Cramer, TheStreet
Portugal: Good excuse or good reason? Spain: Good excuse or good reason? Greek two-year at 19%: Good excuse or good reason? Goldman Sachs (GS) in the stocks instead of selling stocks: Good excuse, or good reason?
To me, Spain, Portugal and Greece are decent reasons to sell but Goldman Sachs was an EXCELLENT excuse to sell. Last night on a late panel with my old partner Larry Kudlow, we were trying to suss this issue out.
Larry's convinced that you have to be a little shaken by the 19% rates. I came back and said that watching the disembodying of the most important finance firm in the country is jarring to say the least and that it created its own level of uncertainty.
Of course, when we hear Greece to Portugal to Spain is "Ebola," as I have heard today, and when you listen to people saying, "We are next," you want to sell everything because "everything" went down in Greece and everything is going down in Portugal. When you hear "meltdown" and "panic" from the media you feel you have to panic and melt down with them.
But there are silk purses. In previous contagions, the areas that collapsed were areas of tremendous growth and strong economic demand or were directly tied to our economy.
Mexico, by proximity and by lending by American institutions, had an impact on our economic growth. Asia, during the late-1990s contagion, had just become the biggest market to sell information technology equipment into in the world. American companies were working furiously to meet that demand and the demand dropped off a cliff.
Russia? Our institutions were hooked on Russia.
Greece, Portugal, Spain? Not economic drivers here. Not important markets. Not capable of stopping the nascent recovery. We are not on the hook.
That doesn't mean that we aren't going to be dented. Doesn't mean that things are "better." We can't be that glib.
Get started at our New Investor Center
However, we always have to remember the notion of the flow of funds. If you are a wealthy company or individual in Europe, you must send your money here. You have to. What I am saying is that money coming here vs. the economic damage that is being exported can be a push or even a positive.
It is really important to remember that these big headline stories are obscuring the single best group of earnings I have seen since the 1990s -- that's right, the 1990s. I have not seen these kinds of healthy numbers with healthy balance sheets and excellent prospects since the Clinton era.
I also believe that a strong economy can mean that many things can go right, including employment and taxes, which have not been going in the right direction.
I was shocked last night to be on a panel where someone contested the notion that things are getting better and that it will matter to our federal and state finances. You know it isn't all about spending. It isn't. But ideology can temper reason.
Anyway, now that the hearings are over, the month is almost over -- end-of-month buying, challenged, of course, by the "Sell in May" ditty, and the defaults of Greece, Portugal and Spain are being factored in -- and we might focus on earnings again.
If we do, it's really hard to go down hard. The earnings are just too darned great.
Random musings: Yes, I thought Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein did a great job, although he had a lot of work to do because the first panel did make it sound like Goldman was the Wild West. I prefer to think of what Goldman was doing with these synthetics as being a facilitator of merchandise to the most sophisticated players on earth and that those players knew or should have known that Goldman might have been selling or shorting the merchandise. … As I said last night, I don't favor synthetics because they introduce too much leverage into the system for the sake of putting on a fast trade.
At the time of publication, Cramer was long Goldman Sachs.

What experiences have made you more comfortable with mental health disorders?
What things make you fearful of mental health disorders? And what experiences have made you more comfortable with it?
In the quest to dispell stigma, how can we help our society grow out of its fear?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Oct 13 2012: I worked for many years with people with mental health disorders. I found that although mental health conditions may cause some challenges in perception and gaging "reality" or in regulating emotions, most of the people I met were good-hearted people with interesting perspectives and much to contribute to the world. In contrast, I have met people with no diagnosed mental health condition who lacked character, were dull, selfish or even violent.
I was shocked to hear of a study in college that showed that most rapists are not technically mentally ill (based on thier answers to a questionaire aimed to evaluate mental health.) Is this true?
What seems true, from my first hand experience, is that there are many people who appear to be very high functioning, show no outward symptoms of mental illness but go on to do some terrible things ... even criminal things. Then, there are people with severe mental illness who are non-violent, very kind, creative, even brilliant and are just very wonderful people.
So, I guess for me, dispelling the myth ( that I was raised with) that mental illness is a character flaw has been major breakthough. One can be mentally ill and also be a very fine and honorable person. Mental health is not a measure of one's integrity or value.
Bottom line ... people are people. Some are diagnosed with mental illnesses and some are not. Everyone has equal value even if they struggle with mental health challenges.
I have to remember this ... as I fight to maintian my own sense of self-worth as a person living with chronic depression and PTSD.
Oct 14 2012: I can tell you my experience started with a depression becouse of a lot of factors (is hard to explain here) but it depends on how much you learned about and how much did you think about someone that is mentally ill ( for me to say about someone is mentally ill means i do not belive in God and the will to help us find our happiness). I realise that in my life I have made small bad things to people and do not had now the opportunity to excuse myself and maybe I will not have the opportunity later to do it and if I interfere with bad intention in the way of someone happines I will suffer later a lot so i try to do everything I do from all my heart as to say ... even that I know I am susceptible to mistakes....

Austin will be home for the next 140 days to state representatives and senators as the 83rd Legislative session starts Tuesday.
State lawmakers have suggested many hot topic issues.
One of those being to ban abortion after 20 weeks. Texas Right to Life is endorsing a bill to stop abortion after the 20th week, stating the fetus can feel pain around that time. Governor Rick Perry is expected to push the "fetal pain" bill possibly as an emergency item to fast track the measure.
Another issue on the agenda is the drought most of the state has been in since 2011. The Texas Water Plan requires $29 billion in state spending for drought related projects over the next 50 years. State Rep. Lyle Larson, R-San Antonio, has filed a bill to draw $1 billion or more from the Rainy Day Fund to help finance water projects. It is unlikely that a conservative-led Legislature will supplement water projects with a new tax or fees.
