This is horrible She goes off to do good work and this is how she is repayed. Reminds me of all the vets that get screwed when they come home. Sometimes people just sicken me. I signed the petition and I just hope it helps in some small way to get this boy back to his rightful home.

This struck a huge cord with me as my brother has epilepsy as well as other serious medical problems. Like Katy's story this brought me to tears and just goes to show no matter what you think of people on your first impressions sometimes you are far from knowing their true hearts http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Father-of-special-needs-girl-overwhelmed-by-generous-hearts-of-strangers-138446639.html

I just read this on Yahoo: http://uk.lifestyle.yahoo.com/five-year-old-raised-gender-neutral.html and for a more graphical idea of what this is about: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4075523/Its-a-boy-Couple-reveal-sex-of-their-gender-neutral-kid-after-five-years.html I am sure that poor kid is going to have a hard time at school because of his "gender" neutral upbringing. The way I see it, the parents did the poor kid a disfavor. Unfortunately, we don't live in an ideal word and we do need to be aware of gender and the social/cultural differences between genders. What are your thoughts on this?

Animals WERE harmed in the making of this movie Several famous films were denied permission to use the famous disclaimer after mistreating animals onset By Orlando Parfitt | Yahoo UK Movies Features – 6 hours ago Email The credits are almost over and a familiar phrase flashes across the screen: “No animals were harmed in the making of this movieâ€Â. The words are so familiar they have become part of popular culture. The American Humane Association is the only organisation allowed to bestow the disclaimer on a movie after trade-marking the first four words. They’ve been working to ensure ani…

This is absolutely incredible. A hero dog has changed the policy at a battered woman shelter. Last year, a woman was nearly beaten to death by her boyfriend. He literally took a hammer and began beating her with both ends of it. When she was lying on the floor, near death, her Great Dane threw himself on top of her, absorbing most of the hammer blows from the boyfriend until the man threw them both out of a second story window! We have trouble even believing one human could do that to another. When the woman called a domestic abuse survivor shelter, they made arrangements for her but not her savior… no pets were allowed. The CEO of…

What I just read just blew my mind. The Grey is a movie about airplane crash survivors trying to survive in the wilderness while being hunted by a pack of wolves. It was already known they did not portrait the wolves in their most nice way, but apparently it's far worse than that. Apart from the most worst possible moment to release this, look what kind of news has recently been put online about it? Here are some excerpts: A new Liam Neeson action thriller opening Friday is receiving howls of protest from wolf advocates. They say "The Grey" wrongly portrays wolves as massive, bloodthirsty beasts. And some wildlife groups are organizing a boycott. …

Reading this just breaks my heart. These animals do so many wonderful things that we all take for granted but when they truly need us, most people don't have a dime to spare thanks to the economy and have to ask for assistance to save them; never mind the fact they are suffering from some irresponsible jerk to afraid to face what they did. I'm glad she's going to be ok, both of them, but it's really tearing me up knowing I could be in a situation that I will need to ask for a hand out just to try and save my pet I really think that something NEEDS to be put in place for the animals but what do I know I'm just a dumb pet lover This was not intended to slate the owners …
