Early morning risers enjoy the view of Jupiter, Saturn and the moon together before sunup on April 5-8. Mid-month after sunset the crescent moon will appear near Mars. On April 26 the moon will be a full supermoon. When the closest point of the moon's orbit coincides with a full moon it appears larger than when it is further away.

Wilderness Youth Project has an excellent guide to spring outdoor activities, including making a wild edible salad. ​The hillsides are blue-grey from the blooming wild lilac (ceonothus). The lilac flowers are a natural soap. Take a few buds and a bit of water and rub them until they lather. You can read more about this here.

The other night I was able to see the constellations very clearly because it was near the new moon so it was not out at night. The first picture shows Mars near Pleaides - the seven sisters, the next shows the constellation Orion and Canis Major (The dog), and the final picture shows the big dipper.

I know I have told you that I can't taste the PTC paper. Well I got my genetic report from the company 23 and me and it confirms that I do not have the genes to be a taster. For those of you who are mild tasters then you probably have a combination of a dominant and recessive gene.

pugs are cute but its torture for them to breath wich is sad

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
There's no doubt that bulldogs, pugs, and other short-snouted breeds are utterly adorable. We love them for their cute smiles, snorts, and wiggles. But is intentionally breeding animals for these facial shapes really a good idea? Ultimately, no. The cute aspects of these breeds are also their downfall. Brachycephalic syndrome affects short-nosed breeds, and not only in dogs - Persian cats are a good example. Brachycephalic animals can suffer from severe respiratory distress, inability to cool themselves, inability to close the eyelids, and more. So is it really fair to continue breeding these animals, knowing that they will be born chronically unhealthy?

It's not that these breeds started out with so many health defects. The facial structure of a Pug in the 1880s was much more like that of a Boxer than the Pugs we see today. There's an effort to bring back a similar style of dog in hopes of removing the high rates of death and injury in Pugs due to their respiratory issues - these dogs are called Retromops, or old-style pugs. However, in order to achieve these more healthy body types, Pugs have to be out-crossed with other dog breeds - meaning that for purebred fanciers, they are not an option, nor are they accepted for showing by organizations such as Crufts or the American Kennel Club.

The severity of the dog's brachycephaly directly correlates with the shortness of the dog's snout. Breeds such as Boxers, with a somewhat pushed in face, are still significantly more tolerant of heat and exercise than a French Bulldog. But all of these breeds have faced increasing restrictions in recent years for their own safety. Most airlines now have a no-fly list specifically for brachycephalic breeds, including United and Delta. Unfortunately, this is for the greater good, after tragic incidents where snub-nosed dogs passed away during a flight due to restricted airflow.

There has been an increased pressure on breeders to begin working on the health defects of these breeds, and to scan breeding stock for potential higher risk - and a building need for owners to be educated on the breed before they buy.

It's not that it's uncommon for dog breeds to have severe health defects accompany them. Many herding breeds are prone to hip dysplasia, Labs are prone to obesity, and so on. But few breeds can claim as many severe health issues as English Bulldogs, Frenchies, Pugs, and other snub-nosed dogs. Many people are unaware before bringing home their new dog of the underlying health issues that come along with them. For example, in a study conducted by the Royal Veterinary College, 72.4% of French Bulldogs had at least one recorded disorder. Due to their snub noses, French Bulldogs need homes with air conditioning, access to water when exercising, and careful monitoring during any situation that could cause them respiratory distress. Along with brachycephaly, the breed commonly suffers from spinal malformations, ear infections, and heart defects. As cute as they may be, bringing a breed almost guaranteed to have health issues home is a big commitment that many people don't realize they are taking on.

Many people don't purchase brachycephalic breeds directly from breeders to avoid fueling the fire. The more puppies sold, the more incentive breeders have to keep breeding (very unhealthy) animals. So what can you do if you're prepared for health problems that come your way, and you still want to add a breed such as a Pekingese or Boxer to your life?

First off - there are some breeders who are working towards breeding in healthier bloodlines to brachycephalic breeds, who for the most part have been poorly bred in attempts to enhance their facial features. Some feel that supporting these breeders is supporting the future health and integrity of the breed. And there are plenty of these dogs & mixes of these dogs available in shelters and rescues. If you can't find a dog that's what you're looking for in a local animal shelter, search for breed-specific rescues. It may also be worth checking sites such as Craigslist or Facebook to see if anyone in your area is rehoming their pet (this is a great way to find a purebred pet, if you're certain you do not want a mixed breed).

If you have a brachycephalic breed, what can you do to ensure your pet's health to the best of your ability?

Carefully monitor access to water. Make sure that your dog always has fresh, cool water - especially when your dog may be hot or has been exercising. It may seem silly to invest in something like a travel bowl, but being unprepared can be your downfall.

Consider a harness, not a collar. If your dog strains against its collar, it will typically choke slightly and/or cough, growing winded. This is a problem for any dog, but it's especially a danger for those already predisposed to having a hard time breathing. Consider a harness as an alternative, or for some breeds, a Gentle Leader (for some, their muzzles are simply too short to wear one).

Monitor your dog's weight. It's no secret that many owners have a problem managing their pets' diets. According to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention, in 2018, an estimated 60% of cats and 56% of dogs in the United States were found to be overweight or obese. Obesity becomes more dangerous for brachycephalic breeds - so it's something to keep an eye on, especially given that your dog may not be able to exercise for periods as long as other breeds.

Continuous vet checkups. All dogs should have routine vet care, but make a point to ask your vet to evaluate your dog's respiratory health at each visit. Update your vet with any new developments (winded more easily, snoring more loudly) and see if anything is a cause to be concerned.

If you do end up with a brachycephalic dog, the kindest thing to do is to spay or neuter it. With the current pet overpopulation issue, the last thing we need is dogs who are born sick. Regardless of how humane it is, humans will continue breeding unhealthy animals due to the financial gain that accompanies the business - there's no need to add in more puppies to the equation, no matter how wonderful your pet may be.

Plus: -Animal cloning is good because you don’t have to kill animals for meat

It is also good because you are saving endangered animals from going extinct

Reduce animal suffering and save grain. More efficient  food for humans

Minus: -Animals have feelings too!

There should be a balance in nature

They could mess up the DNA and create another animal that is dangerous or has a disease or destroy the world.

i had my mom taste the red piece of paper then i tasted it and we couldn't taste the bitterness. and then my brother wanted to do the next type. so i gave him the black line one and myself one and tried it and couldn't taste the bitterness either. so it has to be a gene thing for sure!
