  Dog expert needed

  this dog looks almost exactly like the dog daisy i used to have about a gener-ation ago.

  you'd think the coloring would be random but it's exactly the sameyet it's from california on the other side of the country.

  i think you mix twohybrids that each typically have a look and that's what you get.

  She died in '97. I can see the (Parson?) Jack Russell Terrier aspect but
  something gives it more fur and that coloring.
  This article has the technicalities but doesn't give a breed mix:

  She was a very loving pup. I remember her hugging her face to mine and feeling
  the water from her eyes.

  I think it may be a cross between an Airdale Terrier for somewhat the same coloring
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8XkRmaMqlc
  and a Border terrier?

  Jack Russell Terrier? I think the JR terrier has a closer shape.

  The Jehovah's Witnesses' Governing Body are Elitists (Here is why)

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  an "elite" group is one which has special privileges not granted to others.. and obscurantist elite, is a group which hides information by virtue of its own claim to be special and a sole source in dispensing necessary truths.. to wit:.

  the gb's elitism shines through in articles such as this:.

  “thus the bible is an organizational book and belongs to the christian congregation as an organization, not to individuals , regardless of how sincerely they may believe that they can interpret the bible .

  Russell was saying he was part of an elite 144,000 when Fatty Arbuckle was a big star. You're not going to prove you're that special with "don't lie" "don't murder," so out came the pyramid measurements. It's been the same racket ever since..

  I think the property sales just indicate streamlining business and the GB fur-
  ther isolating themselves for security. The HQ (25-30 Columbia Heights, DUMBO)
  and two other properties are expected to sell for over 1 billion dollars. The
  Watchtower is expected to move from the Brooklyn headquarters to upstate Warwick
  (Orange county in southern NY) in 2016-2017. Wallkill (printing
  operation) was expanded.

  I can only guess what they have in mind about Special Pioneers--some kind of
  replacement?

  ^ The latter was my reaction. I didn't know about the former.

  If this v is Toole what's the A.R.C. issue?

  The Watchtower Society conceded to the Australian Parliament that blood transfusions are at times essential to save lives. In the Hansard Committee, Vin Toole, representing the legal department of the Australian Branch of the Watchtower Society, makes such an admission.

  "What we have said is that there may well be circumstances arise where it does become an absolute life and death issue." aph.gov.au as at 27th May 2006
