The Dangers Of Bread

We think dangers of bread is untrustworthy because of the following reasons and details.

It says exactly HALF (which is very unlikely) of kids that grow up near bread, score below average on tests. It also said the main danger is organic  things. It also said 'm not making this up. Also, it said 90% of violent crimes have been done within 24 hours, of eating bread. Apparently, bread is addictive. Bread has been proven to have water, and if you eat too much it will turn you into a soggy gooey bread-pudding person. It says new born babies can choke on bread, but they can choke on anything. Bread is baked at 400 degrees fahrenheit and can kill an adult in one minute! That's why you let it cool off. We believe bread is not dangerous at all it is actually healthy because it has wheat.

I think this text is fake because in the text it said (I'm not making this stuff up)! The text also says that more than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.

Dog Island-free forever:
We think this isn't a reliable website because...
It stated that going to dog island was the only way for a dog to be joyful, when they can be just as happy living with us. We are not horrible dog owners. It says they will be transported in a luxurious dog crate, but it was just a wooden box. It also says the dogs will be very excited, but they will not know what is happening and will be homesick. It will be very hard to get a dog on/off a helicopter, and they might attack somebody. Again, for safety, they might drown when they get to the island. For fighting, they said they will separate the big and the small dogs, but that doesn't mean the big dogs won't attack other big dogs, and the small dogs won't attack each other either. Lastly, it says that if you put the Dog island leash on your dog, you can see what life is like for your pet, when it is just a plain leash. This is not a trust-worthy website.

I think the Dangers Of Bread website is fake      because of these following reasons...
1.It said, "I'm not making this stuff up!" in the text.
2. It said bread can cause global warming.
3.It also said that violent crimes after 24 hours of eating bread.
4.It says that 90 percent of us is water and if we eat it we turn into icky-gooey-person.
5.In the text it says bread is unhealthy because it contains wheat.
6.It says that HALF of all children that eat bread a lot score below average on tests! LIKE WHAT!!!!!!

Dog island was a total  lie, but so funny too! It said that you will never see your dog again, because they will love dog island so much.
No! Your dog(s) will miss you after two minutes! It also said that your dog will cry when they take you and him away in a helicopter!
What?!?!
No! That doesn't make any sense!
Ha! Ha! Ha!
The website also said that there are many islands that make up Dog Island, such as Mega Dog Island, the biggest one.
Who's ever heard of an Island called Mega Dog Island?!?!? Let alone an island called Dog Island!
This is so funny!
The website says that sending your dog to Dog Island is the best thing you can do!
Who would send their dog there?
We just looked at some of Dog Island's products, and get this,
they have a leash, that is made to let your dog walk you for a change!
Ha Ha Ha!

The Dangers of Bread.  This not real because.

My  first reason is,bread can't give people diseases.

My second reason is, Bread is healthy because it has weet.
My last reason is,
that if you eat a 400
degrease pice of bread afcorse you die. So that means you have to cool it off.

The Northwest pacific octopus would not be a reliable website because one, an octopus would not be able to breath on land without water. Number two, The picture's caption says "A Rare sighting of the northwest pacific octopus." How unreliable is that! And number three, a octopus would not be able to live in a pine tree. If the said to be "tree octopus" was real, it would have been on the news by now. I put my mouse on a picture of a poster that was said to be all over towns and it said "click to buy" we clicked it and it showed up at amazon as a mug, a T-shirt, and a poster. This is most likely a scam. It said that this "Tree squid" lives here in North America but on the poster caption, it said that it was made in "The Cascadian WPA." That is an art place.

we read the dangers of bread and we think is not a reliable because
bread can not kill you and crimes are committed within 24 hours eating bread that is silly but it can happen but not because of eating bead and bread mostly does make you sick there is one true fact is that bread can kill newborn babies and one of there solutions is you can not sale bread to minors but bread is for everyone to eat except for little babies who should not be eating bread at all and it said that bread can take water out of your body and I don't think this is true a lot of this info we think it is all false because we know that these facts are not true and for our final two facts are that  eating bread cant turn you into a mushy bread pudding man and can't ruin your test scores

The dangers of bread.

All of us say that 90 percent of violent crimes are within 24 hours of eating bread is wrong. We also think that a adult can not die from 400 degrees in one minute. they also said that kids that grow up near bread score low on tests. Also it said that bread is addictive ?  we agree that bread is not dangerous and actually healthy because it has wheat   All of that evidence proves that the dangers of bread is not  Reliable.

# data[].attributes.body
Dogs island is not reliable. Because they never told us were it is there was no evidence. Also how could dogs be healthy when there are no vets there no person to feed them or clean up after them they can get sick. if they are sick than how will they be happy. they to wont be happy because they would be missing there ourners and why would the ouner be sending them when they payed for them

The Danger Of Bread

I think that it is not resinoble.

First, If a mouse get covered with dough it can just eat it and then it can get out. Second, We think that bread can not make you cause a crime. Third, We think that bread is not cooked at 400 degrees. That can kill an adult in less then one minute. Fourth, Smell of bread is a health hazard.

# data[].attributes.body
In dog Island Free Forever we believe that it is not reliable ,because it said that then are already over 2500 dogs enjoying a better life at Dog Island. Also that it is only for rich people, and only if your rich you can go home with your dog\ dogs.

A recent Cincinnati Enquirer headline read, "Smell of baked bread may be health hazard." The article went on to describe the dangers of the smell of baking bread. The main danger, apparently, is that the organic components of this aroma may break down ozone (I'm not making this stuff up).

I was horrified. When are we going to do something about bread- induced global warming? Sure, we attack tobacco companies, but when is the government going to go after Big Bread?

Well, I've done a little research, and what I've discovered should make anyone think twice....

1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread eaters.

2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.

3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever and influenza ravaged whole nations.

4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.

5. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!

6. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low occurrence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease and osteoporosis.

7. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water to eat begged for bread after only two days.

8. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jelly, peanut butter and even cold cuts.

9. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.

10. Newborn babies can choke on bread.

11. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.

12. Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.

In light of these frightening statistics, we propose the following bread restrictions:

1. No sale of bread to minors.

2. No advertising of bread within 1000 feet of a school.

3. A 300 percent federal tax on all bread to pay for all the societal ills we might associate with bread.

4. No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.

5. A $4.2 zillion fine on the three biggest bread manufacturers. Please send this e-mail on to everyone you know who cares about this crucial issue.

The Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus

Rare photo of the elusive tree octopus
(Enhanced from cropped telephoto)

The Pacific Northwest tree octopus ( Octopus paxarbolis) can be found in the temperate rainforests of the Olympic Peninsula on the west coast of North America. Their habitat lies on the Eastern side of the Olympic mountain range, adjacent to Hood Canal. These solitary cephalopods reach an average size (measured from arm-tip to mantle-tip,) of 30-33 cm. Unlike most other cephalopods, tree octopuses are amphibious, spending only their early life and the period of their mating season in their ancestral aquatic environment. Because of the moistness of the rainforests and specialized skin adaptations, they are able to keep from becoming desiccated for prolonged periods of time, but given the chance they would prefer resting in pooled water.

An intelligent and inquisitive being (it has the largest brain-to-body ratio for any mollusk), the tree octopus explores its arboreal world by both touch and sight. Adaptations its ancestors originally evolved in the three dimensional environment of the sea have been put to good use in the spatially complex maze of the coniferous Olympic rainforests. The challenges and richness of this environment (and the intimate way in which it interacts with it,) may account for the tree octopus's advanced behavioral development. (Some evolutionary theorists suppose that "arboreal adaptation" is what laid the groundwork in primates for the evolution of the human mind.)

Reaching out with one of her eight arms, each covered in sensitive suckers, a tree octopus might grab a branch to pull herself along in a form of locomotion called tentaculation; or she might be preparing to strike at an insect or small vertebrate, such as a frog or rodent, or steal an egg from a bird's nest; or she might even be examining some object that caught her fancy, instinctively desiring to manipulate it with her dexterous limbs (really deserving the title "sensory organs" more than mere "limbs",) in order to better know it.

Map of estimated tree octopus maximum range, including spawning waters

Tree octopuses have eyesight comparable to humans. Besides allowing them to see their prey and environment, it helps them in inter-octopus relations. Although they are not social animals like us, they display to one-another their emotions through their ability to change the color of their skin: red indicates anger, white fear, while they normally maintain a mottled brown tone to blend in with the background.

The reproductive cycle of the tree octopus is still linked to its roots in the waters of the Puget Sound from where it is thought to have originated. Every year, in Spring, tree octopuses leave their homes in the Olympic National Forest and migrate towards the shore and, eventually, their spawning grounds in Hood Canal. There, they congregate (the only real social time in their lives,) and find mates. After the male has deposited his sperm, he returns to the forests, leaving the female to find an aquatic lair in which to attach her strands of egg-clusters. The female will guard and care for her eggs until they hatch, refusing even to eat, and usually dying from her selflessness. The young will spend the first month or so floating through Hood Canal, Admiralty Inlet, and as far as North Puget Sound before eventually moving out of the water and beginning their adult lives.

Why It's Endangered

Route 101, separating the rainforests of the Olympic Peninsula from Hood Canal

Although the tree octopus is not officially listed on the Endangered Species List, we feel that it should be added since its numbers are at a critically low level for its breeding needs. The reasons for this dire situation include: decimation of habitat by logging and suburban encroachment; building of roads that cut off access to the water which it needs for spawning; predation by foreign species such as house cats; and booming populations of its natural predators, including the bald eagle and sasquatch. What few that make it to the Canal are further hampered in their reproduction by the growing problem of pollution from farming and residential run-off. Unless immediate action is taken to protect this species and its habitat, the Pacific Northwest tree octopus will be but a memory.

The possibility of Pacific Northwest tree octopus extinction is not an unwarranted fear. Other tree octopus species-including the Douglas octopus and the red-ringed madrona sucker-were once abundant throughout the Cascadia region, but have since gone extinct because of threats similar to those faced by paxarbolis, as well as overharvesting by the now-illegal tree octopus trade.

Tree Octopus hat from 1923

The history of the tree octopus trade is a sad one. Their voracious appetite for bird plumes having exhausted all the worthy species of that family, the fashionistas moved on to cephalopodic accoutrements during the early 20th Century. Tree octopuses became prized by the fashion industry as ornamental decorations for hats, leading greedy trappers to wipe out whole populations to feed the vanity of the fashionable rich. While fortunately this practice has been outlawed, its effects still reverberate today as these millinery deprivations brought tree octopus numbers below the critical point where even minor environmental change could cause disaster.

While efforts were made in the past to preserve remaining tree octopus habitat, these were met with resistance by the timber industry, which has traditionally viewed the tree octopus as a nuisance, both because the octopuses favor the valuable, moss-shrouded trees of old growth forests-pitting conservation needs against lucrative sources of lumber-and because octopuses hiding among felled trees often gummed up sawmills and stained pulp vats with their ink.

Traveling sideshow exhibits, such as this one by Glen "Bones" Hartzell from 1942, demonized tree octopuses to the ignorant masses
(Click to enlarge)

These nuisances led many loggers to regard tree octopuses as bad luck, resulting in the pointless killing of octopuses on sight at logging camps in a misguided attempt at eradicating the troublesome species. Anti-octopus sentiment was so strong among loggers that some even began to fear that the octopuses were prone to attacking humans.

These fears were fueled in no small part by gratuitous stories involving tree octopuses harassing lumberjacks and distressing damsels in Northwestern-themed pulp magazines of the 1930-40s and variously "nipping", "entangling", or "suckering the flesh" of the heroes of men's action magazines of the 1950-60s. (The magazine publishers depended on cheap paper made from wood pulp and were glad to contribute to the anti-octopus propaganda campaign of the timber industry.)

To this day, misunderstanding and fear of these gentle creatures can still be found among many old timers, although education campaigns-and special octopus-separators installed at sawmills-have largely halted the practice of tree octopus eradication.
