POPSCats happy to share if they're top dog It's the dog's fault according to the researcher. The example at the bottom of the clip, is used as an analogy. And they've never seen a jealous cat? One problem is that the dog starts copying the cat. When very often in 'cat free' homes, the dog will copy (for better or worse) the owner.

POPSSniffer Dogs To Wear ‘Muslim’ Bootees
Where Muslims object, officers will be obliged to use sniffer dogs only in exceptional cases. Where dogs are used, they will have to wear bootees with rubber soles. “We are trying to ensure that police forces are aware of sensitivities that people can have with the dogs to make sure they are not going against any religious or cultural element within people’s homes. It is being addressed and forces are working towards doing it,” Acpo (Association of Chief Police Officers) said. John Midgley, co-founder of the Campaign Against Political Correctness, said: “The police are in effect being overly sensitive to potential criminals and not being sensitive enough to the public at large who need to be protected. These sort of things have a counter-productive effect because they cause huge friction between different communities.” Caroline Kisko, of the Kennel Club, said: “We would not condone any attempt to make search dogs wear special clothing, which could cause them distress.”

POPSSexting latest trend amongst teens. I could never understand why a teenager needed a cell phone to begin with, let alone one with all kinds of bells and whistles. My own personal cell phone does not take pictures nor am I able to send and receive text messages or images. I find there is absolutely no need to do any of that from a PHONE. Our society is awash in excess. Over kill in many respects, What once was a LUXURY now seems to be a necessity in some peoples minds. I can understand the sense of security one can feel by being able to contact a son or daughter at anytime via the cell phone but WHY ON EARTH do they need one with every available option not to mention the COST of it all. Wouldn't a simple cell phone that sends and receives calls be ENOUGH? Must our children need to be able to send text and pictures on a PHONE? Take it away from them parents and act like the adults you are supposed to be.
