Hi, I'm Maverick! I am the newest addition to my family. I have one brown and one blue eye. I have been in my new home for two weeks now, and I am loving it! I live in a nice house with a big pool, so I can go swimming. I have been getting gradually introduced to water, but I haven't started to swim yet. My mommy has figured out that some of my favorite activities are: splashing my water bowl around the house, running around with a water bottle in my mouth, pawing at my Kong toy, romping through the garden bushes, and wrestling with other puppies.

Clyburn protests McClatchy article on Obama and race
Filed under: Politics
From McClatchy: WASHINGTON - House Assistant Democratic Leader Jim Clyburn objected Thursday to coverage of his views on the impact of President Barack Obama's race on assessments of his performance in the White House. In a letter to the editor of The State newspaper in Clyburn's hometown of Columbia, S.C., the No. 3 House Democrat said an article published Thursday had sensationalized his perspectives on the ties between Obama's race and his work as president. "I have always abhorred the word 'racism,' " Clyburn said in the letter. "I never use it. I believe it is a lethal term, and I am offended that my honest responses to a reporter's clearly designed agenda would be distorted in such a manner." The article was published in The State, in other South Carolina newspapers and on dozens of McClatchy and non-McClatchy websites around the country. There were more than 1,100 comments about the article within 24 hours of its posting on www.mccclatchydc.com and more than 450 comments on www.thestate.com in the same period. "You know, I'm 70 years old," the article quoted Clyburn as saying. "And I can tell you; people don't like to deal with it, but the fact of the matter is, the president's problems are in large measure because of his skin color."

Pumpkin
Location: Dublin, Ireland
http://www.dailykitten.com/wp-conten...4-IMAG0279.jpg Pumpkin is such a sweet little kitty, I took him and his litter mate Sprinkles about eight months ago and he warms my heart with his little cute face, constant purring and the way he loves his blanket and his brother. He is very playful and loves to chirp at me when he wants to tell me something. He is a placid little creature who loves to sleep and is a total piglet when it comes to his food! I don’t know how I got by before I had Pumpkin and Sprinkles. More... |

Lesser Doublecollared Sunbird Feeding on Nectar
http://blog.wildlife-pictures-online...nbird_2135.jpg
Caption: Lesser doublecollared sunbird hovers while using its long beak to extract nectar from the blossom of a freylinia tropica plant, Curry’s Post, KZN, South Africa. Camera: Canon EOS 50D; Lens: Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM; Focal length: 220mm; Shutter speed: 1/320; Aperture: f/8.1; ISO: 400. The Lesser doublecollared sunbird (Nectarinia chalybea), a member of the nectariniidae family, is a small, insect and nectar-eating bird with a down-curved beak adapted to flower probing. The brilliant, iridescent plumage of the male (above and below) is quite spectacular in sunlight as it flits from blossom to blossom, feeding on the nectar. http://blog.wildlife-pictures-online...ubird_2132.jpg Female lesser doublecollared sunbirds, in comparison, are rather drab and definitely come a distant second in the fashion stakes (below). http://blog.wildlife-pictures-online...nbird_2109.jpg http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...?d=yIl2AUoC8zA http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...HY:F7zBnMyn0Lo http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...HY:V_sGLiPBpWU http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...?d=qj6IDK7rITs http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...?d=l6gmwiTKsz0 http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...HY:gIN9vFwOqvQ http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Wild...?d=TzevzKxY174 http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Wildl...~4/g-Q3Ie1zmLE More... |
