Meh. Not all muslims are terrorists, not all christians are wimps. I personally know quite a few who would kick anyone's butt if they were crossed...then again these are catholics...hardcore evil burning hell stuff.
Either way, blabbing on about the bible is not interesting. A good read it does not make.
most restaurant restroom doors you dont need to turn the handle...they're push doors to get out, and pull doors to get in. so once your hands are squeaky clean you can use your butt to open the door. =]
no, the mythbusters CONFIRMED it. just cause it was on the show doesn't mean it was busted.
besides, how do you end up busting something that was reported by 5 airline pilots, videotaped, and the man got a citation from the FAA over? it already happened, they were just seeing how.
A lot of muslim women who wear it see it as a sign of beauty, of a forbidden fruit of sorts. Sure, there are some who are pressured into wearing it because of their family/society, but most of them, even ones who believe in women's rights, think that it's no curse.
Granted, that purple thing isn't exactly the most elegant of coverings, I can see where they come from.
Ph.D. just means you spent a lot of time in school and can make a convincing argument about a long dissertation in front of a board. It doesn't make them right.
While some of the article I found very interesting, some of it is utter bull...the majority of males may prefer a low waist-to-hip ratio, which is understandable, but when surveyed they didn't prefer blonde hair...most preferred darker hair.
but hey, i'm sure if i brought that up with the authors they'd just accuse me of trying to be politically correct.
the cow doesn't appear fertile, though...for a dry cow or a heifer, her udders are very deformed.
@fluff It's true that it's not restricted to france, but pretty much every industrial nation has prohibited it, and some even prohibit fois gras from regions that are known to do that. France didn't give a crap about how everyone else was doing the right thing, they just kept on force-feeding their geese, and still do to this day...france really doesn't follow progressive things.
oh my, yeah...turkey, chicken, and pig farms are notoriously cruel. but if you want real cruelty, go to france and see the goose farms where they make fois gras :(
it all depends on how you use the term. most people in the industry only use the term cow in reference to the female, and bovine or cattle in reference to either. most people, however, just call them cows. I don't think either way is wrong.
Monia, you obviously come from the west or some industrial place where they know nothing on how to raise cattle. There is only one major dairy in WI that has EVER been even cited by PETA for being "cruel" by THEIR standards, and that's saying a lot. The majority of WI and even midwest beef is not raised in the holding pens that veal and pork is (which yes, is cruel).
Next time you feel like spouting nonsense about an industry that you obviously dont know about and/or live in a horrible state for (i.e. California/the south east US), go to ALF. I'm sure they'll care.
Padraig...I've never once seen it in cows. I'm no genetecist but I'm fairly certain it only happens in bulls. Piedmont bulls with this gene defect fetch a very nice price, but personally I'm not a fan of the meat...it's too tender.
