?

I recieved a letter from HMSA that my deductible effective January 1st, 2014 is going up from $2,500 a year to a whopping $15,000 a year.

Five out of seven people are being dropped by their insurance because it couldnt meet the standards of obamaCare. Three of my friends are dropped, two of them were pregnant. But when they tried to go to the website, it was down. and when they tried to go to the call center, they were told to go to the website.

My mother, who is 98 years old, needs a maternity coverage (sarcasm). I mean really? and why should I pay for your goddamn abortion or your transexual operations?

There's gotta be a loophole out there in how to get around this stupid law.

Im all ears.

(if you voted for obama and your insurance got canceled, you deserved it)

I live in a tropical area. The weather is hovering at 78-92 degree Fahrenheit. I have a fish farm for tilapia which thrives really well. I want to raise white sturgeon for aquaculture and farm it for meat and caviar. Will it grow in a warm weather like Philippines? Will it grow as fast as it would in a cold water if I provide it with really well oxygenated and filtrated water?

Say you bought 6 electric blue jack Dempseys, what behavior do they exhibit when they are pairing up?

I want to build an aquarium but i dont want to use acrylic glass because it scratches easy and crazing is hard to fix. i know that acrylic is light and strong, but its not like i am gonna be moving a 2000 gallon aquarium whenever i feel the wind shifts north. Usually, i will let the aquarium stay where it is once it is done with the build. I am ordering a regular cheapest annealed glass for $375 with dimensions 96"x48"x1/2", the aquariums dimensions will be 4 feet wide/deep, 4 feet tall x 8 feet long. using plywood and 2x4s for bracing. the waterproffing will be achieve using a rubber cement.

So here is the question: i dont think that 1/2 inch glass at that size of a tank can hold that water. would it be better or would it be possible to use two of the 1/2 inch glass press together to hold the water, or is it more economical and safer to just order 1"?

I have a pair of jaguar cichlids. The couple made babies, and now I am stuck with all of them. Either i sell them all or let them grow to about 4-5" and join the mom and dad later. but my concern is that is it gonna be a community tank of jaguars nicely getting along or is it gonna be a slaughterhouse?

I am not asking for your opinion whether or not I have a tank big enough to house such a beast. I am asking the difference between a male and a female pacu for breeding purposes. Don't answer this question if your only comment is "It will be obvious when they grow to 3 feet. I'm sure you have a tank big enough for that!"--bullsh!t. Don't lecture me about tank space. I just want to know the goddamn sexual differences. If you are an expert breeder of pacu or a fellow aquaculturist, or biologist, I could really use your help. Thank you.
