She is a 1.5 year old St. Bernard/Australian Shephard mix and has no appetite, has had diahreah, won't drink water, has lost interest, hs problems walking and other issues. just want to know because we spent 500 bucks at the emergency vet only to be told we have no idea what is wrong...*sighs*

any ideas?

Ok, so here is the situation that I really want to get opinions about. The state has no problem handing money and food stamps over to those who sit around doing nothing but drink beer and be stupid. Yet when someone who works hard and just can't make ends meet tries to get help they are told they make too much money. The problem is that decision is based on GROSS income. Gross income (pre-tax) is no where close to what someone has to actually spend on bills. If one makes 1100 every two weeks but then has to pay out 300 for insurance plus pay out taxes to the point that they only bring home 700 per paycheck, how is it that the government feels they can judge people on the money that they do not actually make?

I guess I am just curious what you think about public assistance being given to do nothings while the rest of us all struggle to make ends meet?

Are you as sick and tired of all the political commercials that do nothing but spout and preach negativity and ignorance? Will you be happy when the elections are over and you do not have to watch them any longer?

I am going to apply for a Fulbright Scholarship and was wondering if anyone had any advice. I am a graduate student in education at the University of Kansas and have the full support of the faculty at the school.

Of course, I will be accused of being a "liberal" so sling your junk it is ok. But why bail out a failing business? Republicans claim they are not in the business of bailouts and are anti-public assistance for families but now we are going to give public assistance/corporate welfare to the tune of nearly 1 trillion dollars! Hypocrite sounds good to me.

Instead, why not provide emergency funding to families facing foreclosure so they can keep their home and have a chance to continue impacting the economy in a positive way. When someone loses their home it is sometimes a fast track to losing their car(s), jobs, and other things as well. So, to me it makes sense to help "bail out" the borrower instead of now bailing out the lenders who were so financially ignorant and borrowed money to those who could not afford it!

I am doing research for a Masters level education course and am thinking about writing my thesis on the sociological benefits and drawbacks of homeschooling. So many people argue that homeschoolers do not get the same amount of socialization as those who attend "traditional schools". I am going to start by looking at motivations for homeschooling versus sending your child(ren) to public or private schools.

I just want to see if anyone has heard of the school and if so what you know about it. Thank you.

I refer to the sensless and systematic violence against schools. In one week two morons and a disgruntled, severely disturbed student have thought it their right to take the lives of innocent people. The latest being in a non-violent, religiously strong Amish Community and involving children aged 6 to 12!

What is going on here? Is American society that MESSED UP?
