Preventive Care Helps Your Senior Pet Age Well

- An additional nine human years for the second year
- An additional five human years for each year thereafter
Kids Headed Back to School? Watch Your Pet for Signs of Separation Anxiety
- Destructive chewing
- Howling by dogs and loud vocalizations for cats
- Lack of appetite
- Pacing
- Soiling in the house
- Trying to escape the yard to run after your children
Distraction is a useful tool in helping to keep your pet's mind off her friend who has gone to school. For dogs, try filling a Kong with peanut butter or another favorite treat that she must work to uncover. A catnip-filled mouse will help distract your cat from what's taking place at the front door. If other people are home, someone should interact with the pet while your children leave to catch the bus. If everyone leaves the house at the same time, be sure that your dog or cat gets plenty of attention from at least one person.
Be sure to rotate your pet's toys frequently if he must be alone for long periods. The toys will be a novelty and help him feel less lonely. Dogs love any chew toy and need a comfortable place to sleep for naps. Your cat should have scratching posts, one or more perches to look out the window, hiding places, and toys as well. Leaving soft music on in the background while your family is away can help to calm anxiety also.
Your pet will adjust to the back-to-school change more quickly if everyone in the family gives her several minutes of undivided attention when they are home. This reassures her that she's still an important part of the family and that no one has forgotten about her. Be sure to include your pet in family activities whenever possible.
Some pets have a more difficult time with schedule changes than others. If you have tried these tips and your dog or cat remains highly anxious, request an appointment at Country Club Pet Hospital. Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece can provide you with additional ideas, such as full or part-time doggy daycare for dogs. In severe cases, Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece can prescribe anti-anxiety medication that you can get from our online store.
July is Preventive Care Exam Awareness Month
If your pet is normally healthy and between the ages of 12 months and seven years, an annual exam is usually sufficient. Pets enter middle-age around age seven and their senior years around age 10, so we recommend bi-annual check-ups for pets in this age group. This is when we most often start seeing issues such arthritis, diabetes, and kidney disease. Your puppy or kitten under one year will need to come in several times before his first birthday for routine vaccinations and monitoring.
If your pet needs a new vaccine or booster, we will provide it at this appointment. This is also a great time to talk to our staff about any behavioral concerns, parasite prevention, exercise, and diet. We will check your pet for parasites and let you know if we discover any. Our comprehensive preventive care exam also consists of the following:
- Intestinal or stomach problems, which might show up as abnormal stools, diarrhea, or vomiting
- Unusual urinary discharge or mammary gland issues in females
- Nasal issues, which might include labored breathing, allergies, asthma, coughing, or sneezing
- Coat and skin for problems with anal sacs, hair loss, pigment changes, or excessive shedding
- Teeth and gums for oral health diseases
- Legs and feet for problems such as torn nails, weakness, limping, or joint pain
- Eyes and ears for signs of normal vision and hearing as well as absence of unusual discharge
- We will check your pet's weight at each visit to establish a baseline and let you know if we have any concerns about being overweight or underweight
Preventing and Treating Hot Spots on Your Dog or Cat
How to Recognize Hot Spots
If your dog or cat has developed hot spots, she will exhibit at least a few of these symptoms
- Lesion that appears red or raised
- Unexplained swelling
- Constant licking or chewing a certain spot of her skin
- A red or brown color around the hot spot
- Unpleasant smell coming from the affected area
- Pus and oozing
- Displaying obvious signs of discomfort or pain
Keeping your pet's skin healthy is the easiest way to prevent him from developing hot spots. We recommend using year-round flea and tick protection in addition to grooming his coat regularly. Matted fur traps moisture and can attract fleas, ticks, and other parasites. Occasionally, a pet may have a behavioral issue that causes the biting, scratching, and licking that leads to hot spots. If that's the case with your pet, speak to Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neeceto help determine what could be causing the unwanted behavior. He/she is happy to recommend a specific product to prevent parasites as well.
When you sign up for a MyVetStoreOnline account, you can order flea and tick control products, Yuck No Chew spray, and several other products to keep your pet's skin healthy, dry, and free of hot spots.
Safety Tips for a Fun Summer with Your Pet
Dog owners can become too relaxed keeping an eye on their dog near water because they assume all dogs possess an innate ability to swim. This simply isn't true, particularly for dog breeds with small hindquarters and large chests. When bringing your dog to a pool or beach this summer, make sure you're in the water with him and remain no more than an arm's length away. If you decide to go boating with your dog, he should have a life jacket just like everyone else in the boat.
Internal and external parasites can be a problem all year long, but they're especially prevalent in the summer. Fleas can survive long periods without a living host and may burrow in your carpet or furniture until one becomes available. Be sure to vacuum your carpet regularly, wash your pet's bedding in hot water, and give your pet frequent baths during the summer to minimize fleas.
If possible, keep your pet indoors when you're mowing the grass, applying chemicals, or working in the garden. Chocolate mulch is popular among gardeners, but can be toxic to pets if ingested. Insecticides, snail bait, and slug bait are among the top 10 accidental poisonings for domestic pets. If you set rodent traps outdoors, make sure your pet can't get at them. Some of these chemicals can cause seizures, tremors, and death. You may want to consider an organic alternative for your lawn and garden products.
There's no shortage of opportunity to cook outside in the summer. Your dog or cat would like nothing better than to find scraps of meat on the ground or even grab whatever is cooking on the grill. Food meant for people can be toxic and a choking hazard while your pet could burn himself on a hot grill. Having a pet underfoot is probably not a good idea at these events. If your pet is present, make sure that all guests know he is not to receive any scraps.
April is National Heartworm Awareness Month
Dogs and cats get heartworm disease when an infected mosquito bites them. The heartworm then gets inside of their body and can reproduce, which only worsens your pet's symptoms. The illness is much more prevalent in dogs, but cat owners also need to know about the symptoms so they can prevent and treat it if necessary. Puppies can start on preventive heartworm medication at eight weeks old without any type of testing. At six months of age, a puppy needs to test negative for heartworm infection before a veterinarian can prescribe preventive medication.
It's Flea and Tick Season
Fleas 101
Fleas are wingless insects with a lifespan ranging from 14 days to one year. Although tiny in size and not always visible to the human eyes, fleas can jump as high as two feet. They can't survive and reproduce without a living host. The following symptoms are common indications of fleas or ticks in dogs and cats:
- Droppings that resemble grains of sand or tiny white eggs on the fur
- Excessive biting, licking, or scratching
- Fur loss
- Gums appear pale
- Tapeworm
- Scabs and hot spots
- Allergies
You're most likely to spot these blood-sucking parasites on your pet's head, neck, ears, and feet. Ticks live in tall brush and grass, making it easy to jump onto your pet's body. Unfortunately, indoors pets aren't immune from ticks since they can get into the house from another pet or a person.
Dogs and cats typically don't show obvious signs of a tick bite. To make matters worse, you often can't see them until they have become engorged with your pet's blood. In the meantime, they can transmit diseases such as tick paralysis, Lyme disease, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. If your pet goes outside, we recommend running your hands the entire length of his body every night. Be sure to check the underside for ticks as well.
Preventing Fleas and Ticks
You can reduce the flea and tick population in your yard by mowing the lawn frequently and picking up rake clippings and other yard waste. Using a flea comb and doing a tick check daily is the best way to ensure that these parasites don't have a chance to do serious damage. We also recommend washing your pet's bedding and toys in hot water weekly.
Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece are happy to recommend the most effective flea and tick prevention products based on your pet's species and lifestyle. Keep in mind that we also offer a range of flea and tick products in our online store.
It's National Pet Dental Health Month
The American Veterinary Medical Association declared February as National Pet Dental Health Month several years ago to underscore the importance of oral healthcare. Did you know that up to 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats develop periodontal disease by the time they are three years old? This is alarming because untreated periodontal disease can cause infection by spreading to other areas of the body. It can also cause your pet to lose teeth, making it more difficult for him to chew food and get the nutrition he needs to remain healthy.
Have You Registered for a MyVetStoreOnline Account Yet?
Between work, family responsibilities, and caring for your home, you have precious little time to add another errand to the list. However, you can't very well let your cat run out of specialty food or your dog go without needed medication. When you shop with MyVetStoreOnline through Country Club Pet Hospital, you don't have to take time out of your already busy schedule to get your pet the things he or she needs. You can set up an account in less than a minute and then order from one or several of the following product categories:
Commit to a Year of Wellness with Your Pet
- Make sure that your dog, cat, or other type of pet gets the required vaccines for her species on time. Vaccinations prevent your pet from developing a serious or life-threatening illnesses. They also protect more vulnerable animals from picking up what would otherwise be a highly contagious virus. Optional vaccines are also available depending on your pet's lifestyle, age, and species.
- Schedule an appointment for adult dogs and cats once a year and senior pets twice a year. Adults are between one and seven years old. Although your pet isn't necessarily a senior by age seven, this is the average age that we start seeing age-related health and behavioral changes.
- Puppies and kittens need to come in several times during the first year for their vaccines and a health check. The preventive care exam allows us to detect and monitor your pet's health issues as soon as possible. It also gives you the opportunity to discuss any concerns you have.
- Don't overlook the importance of good oral hygiene. Not only does it prevent gum disease and other problems leading to tooth loss, it reduces the risks of diabetes and heart, kidney, and joint dysfunction. If you're consistent with your routine and expectations, your pet should eventually accept having his teeth brushed.
- When you consider that millions of pets are euthanized annually because they can't find a home, spaying or neutering your pet is just the right thing to do. Altering your dog or cat also stops aggressive mating behavior and reduces the risk of mammary gland or testicular cancer.
- Prepare an emergency kit for your pet in case of severe weather, fire, or another type of emergency. It's better to gather her supplies and food in advance than panic in a sudden emergency and leave everything behind. The kit should contain several days' worth of food and water, medications, toys, and bedding.
- Managing your pet's weight is essential to her long-term health and longevity. That means feeding him nutritious food, limiting treats, and making sure that he gets enough exercise. Avoid pet foods with artificial fillers since these don't provide any nutritional value.
- Protecting your pet from parasites has a huge effect on his quality of life. This includes both internal and external parasites such as fleas, ticks, and heartworm. Dr. Greetan or Dr. Kornowski would be happy to recommend a specific product to control each type of parasite.
Give Your Pet a Safe Gift This Holiday Season
Your pet is a part of your family and you naturally want to include her in the holiday festivities, including giving her a new toy as a gift. At Country Club Pet Hospital, we urge you to consider the following factors when choosing a present for your pet:
• Your pet's size is a big consideration when it comes to giving him chewable toys. A small rubber ball may be fine for a poodle, but a large breed dog might choke on it.
• Stitches, plastic eyes, ribbons, and ties attached to toys can quickly become a choking hazard if your dog or cat is able to get the item loose. Be sure to remove these items before giving your pet the toy to ensure her safety.
• Your pet should understand the difference between his toys and items that belong to other people in the household. One way to teach him what is safe to play with is to give him plenty of positive reinforcement when he reaches for his own toy. Pet-proof your home as much as possible so he doesn't have access to children's toys, TV remotes, office supplies, and other things that could hurt him if ingested. Be sure to take away items that aren't his immediately if he does get into them.
• If you choose to give a stuffed toy, make certain that you know what is inside of it. Stuffing material and beads could both present a choking hazard if your pet rips the toy apart. It's best to supervise your pet with any new toy until you know how she will interact with it.
Shop at Our Online Store to Guarantee Toy Safety
Country Club Pet Hospital makes it easy for you to complete your holiday shopping for your pet by ordering your gifts from My Vet Store Online. Our Internet store offers several categories of products, including treats and toys. At this busy time of year, it's one less trip you have to make to a crowded pet store or mall.
Knowing the Signs of Pet Cancer Could Save a Life
Cancer is the leading cause of death in dogs and cats, particularly when the animal is over age 10. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, 50 percent of senior dogs and 33 percent of senior cats die of some type of cancer. No matter what the age of the pet, a cancer diagnosis often comes as a complete shock to his owner. That is because dogs and cats are good at hiding their symptoms and don't have the ability to verbalize that something is wrong.
As a concerned pet owner, it's up to you to know the signs of cancer so you can seek immediate treatment if your pet displays any of them. While having some of these symptoms doesn't necessarily mean your pet has a tumor, it's always best to have them checked out at Country Club Pet Hospital.
• Abnormal swelling on any part of the body
• Labored breathing
• Difficulty eliminating as usual
• Loss of appetite and/or weight loss
• Inability to chew or swallow food
• Unusual body odors
• Non-healing sores
• Bleeding from any bodily opening
• Walking with a stiff gait
• Not as active as usual and tires easily
While dogs get cancer more often, the disease tends to be more aggressive in cats. Early diagnosis and treatment affords your pet the best chance at sending the cancer into remission.
The Top Five Locations for Cancer in Pets
Skin, mammary gland, head and neck, lymphoma, and testicular cancer are the top five types diagnosed in dogs and cats. With mammary gland cancer, 85 percent of tumors are diagnosed as malignant. However, getting your pet spayed before age one greatly reduces the chances of her developing it. The same is true of testicular cancer, which is common in dogs but rare in cats.
Preventive Care Catches Tumors Early
Your pet doesn't always display symptoms when she has developed cancer. This is one reason that regular veterinary check-ups are so important. We encourage you to visit Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece at Country Club Hospital at least once per year for a wellness exam in addition to scheduling an immediate appointment if you notice any of the above symptoms.
Come See Us When Your Pet is Well
October is National Pet Wellness Month. This purpose of this awareness campaign is to help pet owners understand the importance of preventive care. Visiting Country Club Pet Hospital once a year when your pet is not sick or injured gives Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece the opportunity to check for unknown health issues, follow-up on previous treatment plans, and monitor her weight, growth, and behavior. We recommend bi-annual preventive care exams for senior pets due to their changing health needs. If you have a puppy or kitten, Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece will discuss the preferred vaccine and exam schedule at her first appointment.
How You Can Promote Wellness at Home
Here are several things you can do to promote health and longevity in your pet in addition to regular veterinary care:
• Feed him nutritious food specific to his species and avoid sharing food meant for humans. Train him not to beg for food and don't give in when he gives you sad eyes. Treats are fine as long as you give them in moderation. Manage your pet's weight by making sure that he gets daily exercise and feeding him a set amount at certain times during the day.
• Care for her oral health needs by brushing her teeth regularly and scheduling a dental cleaning and exam as part of her annual check-up.
• Spay or neuter your pet by six months of age. Not only does this prevent unwanted litters of puppies or kittens, altering a pet helps to decrease uterine and prostate cancer as well as aggressive mating behavior.
We Look Forward to Your Visit
Dr. Kendrick, Dr. Neece, and the entire staff of Country Club Pet Hospital look forward to seeing you and your pet at her next wellness exam. Together, we can ensure that your pet remains your faithful companion for years to come.
It's Happy Healthy Cat Month
Although your cat probably thinks it should be every month, September is officially Happy Cat Month. The love and care you provide your cat makes a big difference in his longevity and overall well-being. Cats are wonderful companions who really ask for so little in exchange for the purrs, snuggles, and unconditional love. In honor of this special month, here are some things you can do to give your cat the happy life he deserves:
• Provide several places to sleep and hide throughout your home. Cats need a place to retreat when they feel fearful in addition to wanting privacy from time to time.
• Get your cat microchipped and provide her with a collar and identification tag. This greatly increases the chances of a happy reunion should she ever become separated from you.
• Feed your cat nutritious food, limit treats, and make him work for his food sometimes. Place it inside of a toy or in different places around the house to satisfy his natural hunting instinct. This also gives him much-needed exercise.
• Make sure your cat has plenty of toys and spend a few minutes each day playing with her. Cats are just as entertained batting at a piece of string as they are with an expensive toy from the pet store. Playing with your cat encourages exercise, mental stimulation, and the human-feline bond.
• Place scratching posts in a few different areas of your home to give your cat the chance to sharpen his claws as well as release the natural need to scratch. This saves your furniture too.
Regular Veterinary Care is the Most Important of All
A 2013 study by the American Association of Feline Practitioners indicates that more than half of all cats don't see the veterinarian regularly. Although more than 80 percent visit the vet during their first year of life, cat owners seem to only bring them in when they are sick or injured after that. At Country Club Pet Hospital, we encourage all cat owners to schedule a preventive care exam at least once a year. This is important for early diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of feline diseases as well as to track your cat's growth. Dr. Kendrick and Dr. Neece look forward to seeing you and your cat soon.
An Immunized Pet is a Healthy Pet
It's August, which means that National Immunization Month is here. Just like people, animals need vaccines to protect them from the devastating effects of several contagious diseases. Keeping up with your pet's regularly scheduled vaccines is one of the most important things you can do to ensure her long-term good health. This is true even if she mostly stays inside. Many serious animal illnesses are spread through airborne contact, which means your pet could pick up a virus through an open window. Germs can also spread quickly among unvaccinated pets in places such as grooming salons, boarding kennels, and dog parks.
Essential and Optional Vaccines for Cats and Dogs
The feline distemper shot, also called the FVRCP, protects cats against the serious and highly contagious diseases of Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Panleukopenia. The canine distemper shot, also called the DHPP, protects your dog from Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus. Most states also enforce mandatory rabies vaccinations for both cats and dogs.
For cats, Dr. Kendrick or Dr. Neece may recommend a vaccine for Bordetella, Chlamydia, Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), and Feline Leukemia based on your cat's lifestyle, breed, and other factors. For dogs, your doctor may advise you to get a vaccine for Bordetella, Canine Influenza, Canine Virus, Leptospirosis, or Lyme Disease. Dr. Kendrick and Dr. Neece always take your feedback into consideration when making these recommendations.
Kittens and puppies should start their FVRCP or DHPP series between six and eight weeks of age. This involves getting the original dose followed by several boosters to ensure strong immunity. If your adult cat or dog is behind on his shots, we can get him caught up at Country Club Pet Hospital. We are happy to discuss your pet's vaccination schedule at his next well visit exam, by phone, or through electronic messaging.
(Don't) Burn Baby Burn
As we welcome this year's Texas summer heat with its joys of swimming, barbecuing and playing ball, we must also remember to take precautions for our pets.
Although there's not a precise temperature that's considered "too hot" for our pets, the high 80's and above can pose serious health risks for them. One of the most serious risks is heat stroke/exhaustion. Caution must be taken with all pets, but overweight and brachycephalic (animals with short noses such as bulldogs, frenchies, bostons, etc.) pets are at a significant elevated risk for heat stroke/exhaustion, even if only exposed for short periods of time. Keep an extra close eye on these pets!
So what should you look for?
- elevated body temperature
- excessive panting
- anxiety
- lethargy
- listlessness
- diarrhea
- vomiting
- pale gums
If you see any of these signs, please give us a call or go to an emergency veterinary hospital immediately.
A less frequently considered summer risk is the one posed by hot concrete. Concrete/black top absorbs and holds on to heat very effectively and can easily burn and blister your pets' paw pads. The general rule to follow is: if it's too hot for you to stand on with bare feet, it's too hot for your pets' paws. Keep an eye out for limping, paw pad discoloration, excessive paw chewing and reluctance to stand. Paw pad injuries are prone to infections and slow to heal so give us a call if your pet shows any signs of paw pad burns or blisters.
Summer should be fun, make sure it's fun for your pets too!
Pets Need Exercise Too
Did you know that July is National Recreation and Parks Month? Although this awareness campaign is directed at getting humans to exercise and enjoy the great outdoors, it's important to remember that pets also need physical activity. Besides keeping his weight at a healthy level, regular exercise helps to decrease digestive disorders, joint problems, diabetes, heart issues, and other serious health concerns for the animal member of your family.
Still Don't Have a Microchip for Your Pet?
It only takes a few seconds for your pet to be lost forever, like when you're busy with other things and she slips out the front door to take off after a squirrel. The experience is so common that the American Humane Society estimates one in three pets will get lost at some point in her lifetime. That's over 10 million pets every year who can't find their way home. In many cases, it's because the pet didn't have proper identification. Even a collar with current contact information on it can catch on a fence or come off by the pet's own force.
Welcome to National Pet Food Nutrition Month
Did you know that March is National Nutrition Month? Although originally started to promote the importance of human nutrition, the veterinary industry has adapted it to its own needs. As a pet owner, providing the best nutrition for your dog, cat, rabbit or other animal is the single most important thing you do. That is because the food you select has a major impact on your pet's long-term health.
Pet owners sometime make food buying decisions based on convenience or price without considering what is best for the individual animal. For example, many dog and cats have skin or coat issues, a sensitive stomach, or problems with their joints. This requires selecting a species-specific food that addresses these unique concerns. Pets also have different nutritional requirements based on their stage of life.

Question: soldier returning from Iraq feels testicle pain when orgasm
|turbodsm96x - Wed Sep 03, 2008 4:47 pm

I'm a 20yr old soldier returning from Iraq, did not have sex but did masterbate regulerly when time was availble. I was there for 1 year. I came back home for my RnR (18 day vacation) Thd first night i had sex and I dropped my load (big load too) the pain was immensible in my testicles. I figured it was because it had been so long. So I wait about 5 days and have sex again, and feel the same pain in my testicles while dropping my load. Is this normal?
PS: I masterbated about two times before my 2nd sex session, and neither of those times were painful.

Hello,It is likely that you experienced the pain due to the fact that you had sex after a long time.However if the problem persists you should get your urine examined,and also for inflammation of epididymis and testis by ultrasound and clinical examination to rule out prostatitis.

this debate focuses on nonbelievers, not things such as stoning sinners. if you included this stuff, it'd be even more violent.
"The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter."
for some of the verses and the link to the above quote see the following link:
the old testament was violent. then Jesus came and said things like "let he who is without sin cast the first stone". and "turn your cheek". and people generally view Jesus's death as a pacification of God's wrath such that violence is not necessary anymore, and generally violence isn't seen as necessary any more.
islam still has commands for violence that doesn't have someone like Jesus standing in the way to stop them.
1- Acceptance
I accept this debate, and thank my opponent for his proposal.
2- Burden of proof
The burden of proof to prove the resolution is on my opponent, meaning that I am only obligated with a burden of rebuttal, in which I respond to my opponent's arguments. However, I am free to provide arguments and evidence for statements that contradicts the debate's resolution.
My opponent has to prove that the religion of Islam is potentially more violent than the religion of Christianity in their teachings.
For the purpose of this debate, I will be using the translations: Sahih International and the New International Version for the Quran and the bible respectively unless stated otherwise. Some longer sets of verses will be directly referred to through a link to provide writing characters.
3- Definitions
a : exertion of physical force so as to injure or abuse (as in warfare effecting illegal entry into a house) b : an instance of violent treatment or procedure
: injury by or as if by distortion, infringement, or profanation : outrage
a : intense, turbulent, or furious and often destructive action or force violence of the storm> b : vehement feeling or expression : fervor; also : an instance of such action or feeling c : a clashing or jarring quality : discordance
: undue alteration (as of wording or sense in editing a text)
4- Rebuttal
4a- Quranic verses
My opponent stated: "The Quran contains at least 109 verses call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule". I ask my opponent to clarify what he means by "war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule" and provide evidence for this statement. Your statement seems to contradict:
And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed - all of them entirely. Then, [O Muhammad], would you compel the people in order that they become believers? (Quran 10:99)
I believe the verses my opponent was referring to in his argument were:
There is no encouragement to start violence, but to suppress and respond to it. Fitnah means affliction, tumult, and discord. (1, p.81) Thus, Islam is not actively seeking violence. The verses states: "Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors", and "But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression except against the oppressors".
These verses refers to the battle of Badr and addresses to those who acted adversely toward Muslims. It is illogical to instruct Muslims to sip tea while they are about to get butchered.
The same Sura states:
And if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah . Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Knowing. (Quran 8:61)
And yes, the Quran forbids cowardice and encourages courage. An argument against cowardice can be found in An-Nisa' (Sura 4). A part of it is:
And what is [the matter] with you that you fight not in the cause of Allah and [for] the oppressed among men, women, and children who say, "Our Lord, take us out of this city of oppressive people and appoint for us from Yourself a protector and appoint for us from Yourself a helper?" (Quran 4:75)
This refers to the hostile polytheists who broke the peace treaty, Muslims had every right to fight back. Furthermore, the verses grants sanctuary to polytheists who seeks protection.
I ask my opponent to clarify what he means by "slaughter".
"I advise you ten things Do not kill women or children or an aged, infirm person. Do not cut down fruit-bearing trees. Do not destroy an inhabited place. Do not slaughter sheep or camels except for food. Do not burn bees and do not scatter them. Do not steal from the booty, and do not be cowardly." (Malik's Muwatta, Book 21, Number 10)
4b- Christianity comparison
My opponent acknowledges that the old testament is violent, and extremely violent I might add. Here are a few highlights:
I am bewildered by my opponent's claim that the "atrocities" of the OT isn't "necessary" anymore. Well, I ask him to bring me one verse that states that following the OT is a sin. In fact, practicing and teaching the OT is encouraged:
Matthew 5:17-19
17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
This can be considered a concession of the debate by my opponent.
My opponent then provides verses that shows that Jesus didn't condemn adultery punishment by hypocrites. This is contradictory since Jesus is going to torture who commit adultery and kill their children too:
Revelation 2:22-23
22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. 23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
He then mentions turning the other cheek, other instructions include:
Matthew :41-42
And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. 41 If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
Mark 9:42-47
42 "If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. 43 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. [44] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. [46] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,
this means that Christianity encourages self-harm and self-victimisation, and thus encourages violence from others and on self. Islam is superior in this aspect:
And spend in the way of Allah and do not throw [yourselves] with your [own] hands into destruction [by refraining]. And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good. (Quran 2:195)
Also, my opponent implies that Jesus came to bring peace and love, which is false.
Matthew 10:34-36
34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn
"'a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
36 a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.'
Luke 14:25-26
25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 "If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple.
In fact, Jesus is going to execute all who oppose him, which leads to massive bloodshed and violence.
Luke 19:27
27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.'
5- References
(1) cdn.almaany.com/dicload/Dictionary_of_Islamic_Terms.pdf
Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief] is worse than killing...
but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)" (Translation is from the Noble Quran) The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries. In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did). The use of the word "persecution" by some Muslim translators is thus disingenuous (the actual Muslim words for persecution - "idtihad" - and oppression - a variation of "z-l-m" - do not appear in the verse). The actual Arabic comes from "fitna" which can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation. Taken as a whole, the context makes clear that violence is being authorized until "religion is for Allah" - ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief.
Quran (2:244) - "Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things."
Quran (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not." Not only does this verse establish that violence can be virtuous, but it also contradicts the myth that fighting is intended only in self-defense, since the audience was obviously not under attack at the time. From the Hadith, we know that this verse was narrated at a time that Muhammad was actually trying to motivate his people into raiding merchant ca
I thank my opponent for his argument. Although I must express my dissappointment with his lack of rebuttal; until then I must assume that he concedes the dropped points.
1- Rebuttal
1a-Violence from Christians
My opponent states: "con's bible verses do not indicate violence from christians". However, that is irrelevant for the debate. I don't believe I need to bring historical examples like "Kill them. For the Lord knows those that are His own", for there is nothing condemning them in the bible.
Matthew 5:17-18
17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
Matthew 23:1-3
23 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 "The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat. 3 So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
The New Testament in no way abolishes the Old Testament. Thus my opponent needs to demonstrate that the teaching of Islam is more violent than the teaching of the bible, which includes:
Psalm 137:8-9
8 Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction,
happy is the one who repays you
according to what you have done to us.
9 Happy is the one who seizes your infants
and dashes them against the rocks.
2 Chronicles 15:13
13 All who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, were to be put to death, whether small or great, man or woman.
Isaiah 13:15-18
15 Whoever is captured will be thrust through;
all who are caught will fall by the sword.
16 Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes;
their houses will be looted and their wives violated.
17 See, I will stir up against them the Medes,
who do not care for silver
and have no delight in gold.
18 Their bows will strike down the young men;
they will have no mercy on infants,
nor will they look with compassion on children.
Furthermore, my opponent did not respond to the prophecized massacare on all nations and it's inhabitants (Yes that includes children) that do not follow Jesus.
Psalm 149
May the praise of God be in their mouths
and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7 to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with fetters,
their nobles with shackles of iron,
9 to carry out the sentence written against them—
this is the glory of all his faithful people.
Praise the Lord.
Revelation 19:17-18
1b- Quranic verses
According to Hans Wehr's dictionary, which I believe to be the standard Arabic-English dictionary, Fitna means:
temptation, trial;charm, charmingness, attractiveness; enchantment captivation, fascination, enticement, temptation; infatuation; intrigue; sedition, riot, discord, dissension, civil strife (1)
Although the Quran did use the former meanings (trial), it also used the later meanings:
{101} And when you travel throughout the land, there is no blame upon you for shortening the prayer, [especially] if you fear that those who disbelieve may disrupt [or attack] you. Indeed, the disbelievers are ever to you a clear enemy.
{102} And when you are among them and lead them in prayer, let a group of them stand [in prayer] with you and let them carry their arms. And when they have prostrated, let them be [in position] behind you and have the other group come forward which has not [yet] prayed and let them pray with you, taking precaution and carrying their arms. Those who disbelieve wish that you would neglect your weapons and your baggage so they could come down upon you in one [single] attack. But there is no blame upon you, if you are troubled by rain or are ill, for putting down your arms, but take precaution. Indeed, Allah has prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment.
(Quran 4:101-102)
As you can see the word "tempt" would not make sense. Therefore, your balatant accusation of dishonesty, a serious claim, is unfounded.
Zalim according to Hans Wehr means:
unjust, unfair, iniquitous, turannical, oppressing; tyrant, oppressor; offender, transgressor, sinner (2)
Furthermore, my opponent's statement is contradictory when stating that Muslims begin fighting when the verses he quoted includes:
Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors.
And if they cease, then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression except against the oppressors.
Except for those who take refuge with a people between yourselves and whom is a treaty or those who come to you, their hearts strained at [the prospect of] fighting you or fighting their own people. Agnd if Allah had willed, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you. So if they remove themselves from you and do not fight you and offer you peace, then Allah has not made for you a cause [for fighting] against them. (Quran 4:90)
My opponent also attempts to imply that Meccans were peaceful (Battle of the Trench anyone?). This is a weird claim considering their torture sessions toward Muslims, 3 year starvation-inducing boycott, and forcing Muslims to leave their properities and belongings before leaving Mecca due to violence and hatred. The caravan raid he mentioned accumulated the Muslim property and income left behind in Mecca, thus the Muslims were justified to take their property back.
2- Burden of proof
My opponent has not demonstrated his claim that the religion of Islam is potentially more violent than the religion of Christianity in their teachings, thus the burden of proof has not been carried by Pro thus far. Furthermore, Pro has not responded to arguments that contradicts his resolution.

Dragonfang, from the D to the G.
Pro did not offer much objection to my arguments demonstrating a significantly larger acts of violence and unneccessary bloodshed from the Christian teachings, and neither does Pro deny them. Therefore that is efficently a concession; my opponent has not lived up to his burden of proof regarding the resolution.
I believe it is, by all means, reasonable to conclude that Christianity is more violent than Islam judging by the content of this debate, and Pro being unable to hold the assertion presented that Islam is more violent than Christianity.
I thank Pro for this debate and wish her well.

1- If God doesn't exist, then evil doesn't exist.
2- Evil exists.
C: Therefore, God exists.
Lol. There is no "Atheist science", and from what I observed, Atheists barely use logic and valid arguments.

Christianity is stupid. Why believe in a fat man in the sky above the clouds, watching over us like a child molester. I don't give a cr*p what people say, Jesus was fake, the Christianity beliefs are stupid and they are tyrants and fascists. I, as an atheist, was tossed into a church by a Christian Nazi, who forced me in.
Islam is also stupid. WTF is with Isis? "Oh, I rape these schoolgirls for Allah!" "I slaughter innocent people for Allah!" "I do EVERYTHING for Allah!" God, so stupid they would go to all lengths to a man equal to God: non-existent, all powerful and retarded. Honestly, where has humanity gone?
From the Christian Puritans to the ISIS terrorist group, to 9-11 to Scientific years of repression, ALL RELIGION IS EQUALLY EVIL FOR BRAINWASHING. I WAIT FOR SOCIETY TO WAKE UP FOR THE BRAINWASHING TO SHOOT THE POPE, THE DALAI LAMA, TO BURN EVERY TORAH AND BIBLE AND KORAN IN THE WORLD. UP WITH ATHEISM AND LOGIC AND SCIENCE! DOWN WITH PRIMITIVE MINDS AND BRAINWASHING FROM FASCIST RELIGION FANATICS!

neither Christianity nor Islam have the characteristics enabling them to be Violent.
they are philosophies. and as such, only the people are violent. The actions of one man does not represent those of many, nor do the actions of many represent the one.
neither Christianity nor Islam are violent. Extremists within each group may be however,
but those individuals would only be considered violent if they actually surpass the very distinct boundaries of what it means to worship their All-merciful God.

"It's not you, it's me."
& I don't know when all that changed but somewhere along the line, I decided that the last thing I wanted is someone who's going to be all up in my shit.
& the baggage. Holy shit. If we're going to be together, at this stage in my life, you're not even allowed to have baggage.
I feel like sometimes I pester Mr. Flintstone because he kind of goes through life like one high, Asian robot. It's like the only things he's capable of feeling are "Whoa," and "I'm sorry, I wasn't listening."
The following is a hypothetical situation between Mr. Flintstone and I:
Scene: Snuggling on living room floor
Me: Hey, is everything okay? You're kinda quiet.
Flintstone: eh.
Me: I don't know what to do with that.
Flintstone: Can I have a massage?
Me: Yes, but hold on, we're talking.
Flintstone: About what?
Me: About your feelings.
Flintstone--distracted by dog. What?
Me: Omigosh, baby pay attention.
Flintstone: Oh myyyyy gosh. I did it again so I'ma let the beat drop.
Me: Okay, no really.
Flintstone: Okay, no reeeaaallly.
Me: Is something wrong? I sometimes find it's easier to work through my emotions via interpretive dance.
Flintstone--distracted by dog.
Me: You're not even listening.
Flintstone: I am.
Me: What's the last thing I said?
Flintstone: You're not even listening.
Me: Uggggh. Are you okay?
Flintstone: Am I getting a massage?
Okay, I've never interpretively danced unless you count dancing to Cameo's hit single, Candy, in the morning when I get ready as dancing interpretively. [But I think there's more to it.]
Anyway, it used to drive me crazy that Mr. Flintstone doesn't have real feelings.
Until recently.
When I realized I am socially inept to deal with anyone else's shit.
It's happened a few times now where I'm totally into someone and then they pour out all these feelings and I feel like they just took a shit on my lap.
& I'm sitting there thinking, "Omigosh. We can never undo this. I'll never forgive you for taking an emotional dump on my levis. Things are going to be so weird everytime I see you now." & usually, I'm just itching to get the fuck away from that person and breathe. But like, literally, itching.
I don't know where I'm going with this.
What I'm trying to say is nothing used to freak me out when it came to relationships.
& now I'm extra selfish.
(Note: I'd be that crab on this post. Selfish Shellfish. Yah, I'm sooo clever).
I only want to deal with my shit and I don't want all the cards on the table or to have to answer to anyone.
Right now the kind of guy I can handle is a man I'm going to have to stab in the biceps with a fork every now and then to make sure he is still capable of feeling; the kind of guy who'd rather get a massage than take an emotional barf all over my face/dump on my jeans. whatever.

Playlist: Anthrax
Wed, 18 Mar 2009 09:24:09
Anthrax Videos
Anthrax's Scott Ian is a busy man these days. Between recording and playing shows with Anthrax and hosting "Scott Ian's Home Game" on UltimateBet.com, the legendary axeslinger has little time for R&R. Nevertheless, he's always cranking good tunes. The Anthrax guitarist opened up his iTunes and gave ARTISTdirect.com an exclusive look inside.

Resort was very nice. Was not happy with the pressure to view the presentation to join the Secrets Vacation club. If they want to take you off to the Bar to discuss your stay, "just say no". Also when this says tips included, be leary. Everyone expected a tip. While they wouldn't say it, they would stand around next to you, looking at you until they got something. Case in point,,,luggage delivery to the room. After the person brought the bags to the room, he just stood around in the room looking at us. Once he got a tip, he gladly exited.Room was nice yet a lot of moldy looking stuff around the back side of the shower glass Maid service was very good. We ordered room service late almost every night and on 2 occasions we had to call to track down the delivery. One time it was 1 hour late. Pools and bars were very nice. Lots of resort entertainment going on in these areas to keep everyone engaged. If you get a package with $$$resort credits, these are for specific things like 2 $40 certificates towards spa treatments. They cant be combined so wife could only use 1 at a time.

My wife and I went to Jamaica from May 9 – May 16, to celebrate our 37th anniversary and a birthday. We have been to Jamaica over 30 times and visited many of its resorts. I have reviewed several of them on TripAdvisor. This time, we decided we did not want a 2-hour bus ride from the airport to an Ocho Rios venue, so we decided on a hotel in Montego Bay. We took our chances as to which specific hotel, however, and booked through Cheap Caribbean using a promo that Cheap Caribbean calls "Montego Bay Deal of Fortune". It promised deluxe Ocean View Rooms and all-inclusive service at one of three hotels: The Iberostar Grand Rose Hall, Secrets Wild Orchid, or Secrets St. James. We researched them all and decided that they were all good properties with good reviews, and so we booked it with a request for a room on the second floor, near dining. It was exciting as we waited to be notified (a week before departure) of our destination. I did some more research as we waited, and I was surprised to find that the Secrets Resorts properties are owned by the same company (AMResorts) that owns Cheap Caribbean. Therefore, we were not surprised when we were notified that we had been assigned to Secrets St. James – the less expensive side of the Secrets Montego Bay complex (the two hotels – Secrets Wild Orchid and Secrets St. James - are side by side and totally integrated, using the same restaurants, beaches, pools, and public space. All of the restaurants are on the Wild Orchid side.) This is a case of buyer beware. If you book through Cheap Caribbean's "Deal of Fortune," you will likely get assigned to Secrets St. James. We had an easy 10-minute ride from the airport to the Secrets Complex. This is a very large resort. Since both resorts are together, it has over 700 rooms. The grounds are expansive, but that's a lot of people hitting the buffet line for breakfast at the same time. On arriving, we were assigned to a garden view room on the first floor. I told the hotel rep that that was not what we had paid for, and he said he could upgrade us to VIP Premiere status for $700, which would include an Ocean View room and use of the best beaches and pools, which are reserved for the VIP Premiere members. Eventually, making no headway to get what Cheap Caribbean promised (an Ocean View room), I found that the agent was not averse to bargaining, and after mentioning our Anniversary and birthday we settled for $350 for a VIP Premiere upgrade. Our new room, number 3408, was on the 4th floor (elevator accessible) and had a great view. This turned out to be a good move, as we noticed that the first floor room we were originally assigned to opened to a very public walkway in front, and the patio area in the back was on a main path to the pool. Check-in was easy. We arrived at the resort at 2:10 and were in our room by 3:00. (Later we learned that Preferred beaches are also available to non-Preferred guests, as well.) All in all a disappointing stay and disappointing service from Cheap Caribbean / AMResorts.

My new wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon for 10 days and cannot imagine being in a nicer place. The grounds were immaculate, the staff was excellent, and the food was outstanding. Even though we were there for 10 days, we never felt bored. With the entertainment staff, the watersports, the games, and the casino, there was always something to do. The pools and the beach were beautiful. We decided to upgrade to the preferred club so we could get a nicer room. The regular junior suites were beautiful but since it was our honeymoon, we splurged a bit and upgraded. We had a butler who made all of our dinner reservations and always had our Jacuzzi tubs filled when we came in from dinner. I surprised my wife with the beach side dinner they offer. I'd suggest that everyone take advantage of that. We were so relaxed that we never even felt the need to go to the spa. The adult drinks are plentiful and I found that the more I tipped, the stronger my drinks were. I would come back the this resort in a heatbeat. I would recommend this place for any couple honeymooning or just looking for a romantic getaway. It's a fantastic experience for a fantastic value.

I traveled to Jamaica for the first time with my 3 siblings to celebrate their milestone birthdays (30th and 21st). I was very skeptical as this was my first time using CheapCaribbean. We arrived to the hotel 3hrs before check-in and was provided a room with no wait. Every staff that I came across was polite, friendly and accommodating. Our room was clean and very up to date. After an 30 minutes of arriving, we took a few steps outside to the pool and bar. The bar offers ALL drink options. The beach was breathtaking and the water was warm and calm. Plenty of chairs and towels. The resort offers "Jerk chicken cart and fruit cart" that randomly walks around offering guest jerk chicken, coconut water straight out of the coconut and the sweetest mangos. My favorite was breakfast and lunch at the World Cafe (buffet style)! I was not to impressed with the dinner options as me and my family are BIG foodies. Small portions and I was not able to find what I wanted on the menu. The restaurants were beautiful and the servers were prompt and attentive! I love that the resort had endless options as it relates to food. So while you may not like one thing you could easily walk over and get seafood paella off the grill made by a chef right on the beach. The cleaners came every afternoon to clean our room and restock the fridge. We ordered room service a few times - and found the food was better later on in the day. I normally do not eat much meat but while at Secrets - I ate lots of it because it was well seasoned. Secrets is in walking distance of Wild Orchats and Breathless so we were able to visit all the pools and bars. The night scene was fun! The club was a great time and the Dj played all the latest music. I left the resort two times using a taxi service that works for the resort. I was safe but felt it was a bit pricey (35$ - airport, $30- downtown night clubs). I will definitely visit again through Cheap Carribbean. It rained a lot during our 5 days there but it did not put a damper of our fun. I was told by the staff there is normally more outdoor activities that were not available to us due to the rain ( outdoor movie, beach party, yoga on the beach). I can go on ALL DAY when I speak on the quality of service provided by the staff. I befriended so many staff there (Sunshine, Kamstar, Chase, Leo, Sassy) and they were engaging, made sure we were having a great time throughout the day and offered great knowledge on the island. I will say that both siblings the 30yr old and the 21yr old equally had the time of their lives.

After reading way too many positive and negative reviews about the resort I was unsure what to expect. But I was pleasantly surprised. The resort is beautiful. Clean and modern. The staff was friendly and quick to accommodate any request. Some people complained in their review that the staff seemed fake. Honestly, although at times that may be true, who cares. Fact is they are working and customer service has its moments.... My personal experience with all the staff I encountered was great. They were always friendly, energetic and smiling. My room was spacious and always clean. The fridge was not cold but there's an ice machine around the corner. The food I got from room service was not very good but not the case in the restaurants. I went to all but the Mexican and had delicious meals very time. Is it 5 star cuisine? No. But it was good enough and the service was great. I only waited for a table once and when you have a drink in hand and good company and an ocean view it really isn't the end of the world. Skip the wine though, Its terrible!! I can see how based on expectations not everyone would have the same experience. But if you go on vacation just looking at the negatives then the problem is you, not the resort . As for the people who complained about tips. I saw very generous tippers and those who did not tip at all , what I didn't see was the staff asking for tips or giving poor service to those who did not. I wont go into every little detail but I spent 6 nights at the resort and did not want to leave. A great big kiss and Thank you to everyone that helped make my vacation everything I needed and more. Cant wait to return to Jamaica and I'd definitely return to Secrets.

The resort was fantastic, the staff were all very courteous and worked their butts off to make sure everyone was feeling IRIE!!! We had the room closest to the pool and the beach so relaxing wasn't that hard at all. We met a lot of the other guests and none of them had anything bad to say about the place. As far as excursions we did the big catamaran with snorkeling and a trip to Margaritaville (soooo much fun). We did the Hobie Cat ride from our beach with a guide (excellent). The best one of all had to be Dunns River Falls. Keep in mind that we're both in our early 50s and we made it to the top (with a little help) but still NO PROBLEM MON!!! Even the lazy pool days were so relaxing for us (she's a teacher and I manage a marina ) so doing nothing during the week like that was quite a treat (I did get one of our pool bartenders to do a Belly Flop with me, very cool!) As we got closer to our last day there, we were trying to figure out how and when we'd be coming back. We also want to bring some of our friends and family with us. We'll be sure to get back there as soon as we can.

Traveled there september 2011. Really one of the best all inclusive vacations ever. Friendly staff, food was great. Plenty to do on the beach. DO NOT MISS THE JERK CART ON THE BEACH. Also icey cart and fresh coconut drinks (how tropical). My trip was six nights of bliss with my husband to celebrate our anniversary. Give the spa a try not cheap but really worth it. Most resorts you will have one or two down points. I have not one complaint. I do think the preferred is worth the additional money.

This is the first vacation that I'd ever just taken with a friend. We planned it, we paid for it, we roomed together. It was the best money we'd ever spent. The rooms are beautiful, and the suite that I had had a beautiful ocean view. The beds are almost obnoxiously comfortable-we ended up taking so many naps just because we made the mistake of sitting on the beds before we did anything, haha! Though we went as friends, the rooms are really made for couples, so there was a loverly jacuzzi, soft robes, a rain shower with a detachable showerhead... all of the perfect *ahem* twosome accomodations. Either way, they were welcome luxuries just the same. Housekeeping and room service are quick and thorough- but you *MUST* have your privacy light on if you don't want to be disturbed. They don't really wait long to come in after knocking, lol. The grounds are absolutely stunning. The beach is immaculate and practically rock free. Go walking at night along the beach- the tropical fish really come out at night! Though you will find your fishy friends in the daytime too, the night is when it really all comes to life. The pools are heated and come with floats you can be nice and lazy on. There are servers who will take your drink orders from the poolside or beachside and then bring them to you. Oh, the drinks! Free-flowing! You've never seen more easily accessible liquor. PACE YOURSELF! The staff are amazing! They are so sweet and crave legitimate conversation, not just tips. And if they love you, you get the inside scoop- best deals for excursions, best food, best spots in Montego Bay off the beaten path, hot island gossip, etc. I definitely recommend spending nights at the piano bar- Rayon and the boys are sweethearts. And if you want to go offsite, your best bet are the red vests that hang about the resort gatways. There is a very, very good chance they will come out a better deal than the resort-organized excursions. The food was delicious. I know that there have been complaints, but look at it this way: the food is just Jamaican versions of the original cuisines. They don't have imported or transplant chefs, lol. They're all Jamaican. For that, the food is excellent, and better if you get seafood or a typical jamaican dish. Otherwise, it's just ok. So yeah, that was my experience. If I had any complaints, they would be the privacy issue, and perhaps the lack of non-couple oriented activities. But both can be fixed by careful use of the privacy light and careful budgting of your excursion money for off-site activities respectively. But honestly, all of the pros outweigh the very few cons. You will have the time of your life here. I promise. :D

We stayed for 5 days at Secrets St. James in Montego Bay and had one of the BEST vacations we've ever had! The resort was beautiful and clean, and the service was excellent. Everyone working at the resort was very friendly. Our room was cleaned and restocked frequently, which was nice. However, the room mini bar had a limit of 4 Red Stripe beers per day, which was a little disappointing but overall not a big deal because we spent very little time in our room. The pool bar was our favorite! The water temperature was warm, which I loved. There was always something going on as far as entertainment on the resort.. water aerobics, dance lessons, drum lessons, games, contests, shows, etc. We definitely got our money's worth for the all-inclusive package, and I will say that the drinks were delicious! A little on the sweet side, but still delicious. We had a little bit of a wait for the Mexican restaurant (El Patio), but the food was still very good. We always went to the World Cafe buffet for breakfast - soooo good. They have everything you can think of for breakfast, and it's all fresh. Our favorite dinner spot was Bordeux, a French cuisine restuarant. You have to make a reservation, and even with that we had about a 15 minute wait. The food, however, was excellent. We really had no complains about any of the food. The spa is gorgeous, but we were ushered through their hydrotherapy room before our massage. They instruct you on a specific sequence to follow through different showers and baths in the hydrotherapy room, which I thought was a bit uncomfortable and too rigid. I would have liked to just meandor around and try each thing at my own leisure. The workout room is a little small but it was fine for a morning jog on the treadmill. Aside from a few bug bites, we really had no major complaints. I really appreciated the way they treated their guests and the standards they keep for the resort. I would definitely come back to this resort and would love to go to another Secrets resort in the future!!

Decentralized Income Redistribution Reconsidered
In theory, a state could redistribute income at a lower cost to its taxpayers than if the national government handled it. Part of the cost is exported out of state when federal tax revenues generated by the state fall as money incomes are reduced by additional redistribution. Simulations combining labor supply and migration responses show that, for some reasonable parameter values, enough of the cost is exported so that states do face lower costs of redistribution. Hence, the federal tax system provides at least a partial offset to the well-known externalities generated by local redistribution. Copyright 1991 by Oxford University Press.

Digestive health may promote weight-loss. We'll find out if Colosan ingredients, side effects and clinical research help seal the deal. Additionally, we focused on customer reviews and testimonials. Then, we summarized the facts to give you the info you need.
What is Colosan?
Firstly, Colosan is a colon cleanser for men and women. The active ingredient is magnesium. You'll use the supplement up to three times per day. It supports colon health, by removing "toxins" and improving regularity.
Family Health News, founded in 1998, makes Colosan. Online retailers and the parent company website sell the supplement. We like the connection between digestive health and weight-loss, but read on…
Colosan Side Effects – "Positive or Negative?"
One issue we encountered is Colosan side effects. "The active ingredient is magnesium," said our Research Editor. "This mineral is beneficial to health, but can also cause a laxative effect."
One customer stated, "After taking, Colosan made me have to go."
Then again, not every dieter commented about side effects.
According to WebMD, "Taking magnesium by mouth is helpful as a laxative for constipation and to prepare the bowel for medical procedures."
Another user mentioned, "This stuff works better than anything without harmful side effects."
Scroll below for one of the best products we've seen over the last year.
User Comments – "Positive or Negative?"
We found some discouraging reviews of Colosan. "Does not work at all I took six pills twice, and it doesn't work," commented a customer.
"I've tried many products to try, and relief stomach issues and this product honestly is no different than the rest of them," reported another.
On the other hand, the effect a supplement varies by user.
"Works as advertised, just order the pills instead," stated a dieter.
"Excellent product, a little goes a long way. I'd strongly suggest for to start small for those who have never used it before like me," posted another.
Our research connects the dots between side effects and a reduction in long-term success. There's an issue if customers experience adverse reactions while using Colosan.
The Science – "Evidence-Based?"
At DietSpotlight, we look for research supporting claims. As for Colosan, this formula does contain magnesium. There are studies showing the mineral promotes digestive health and relieves the symptoms of constipation. The only concern is that it may cause a laxative effect.
The Bottom Line – Does Colosan Work?
Can digestive health lead to weight loss? Well, we like that Colosan ingredients are natural and that the longevity of the company. We wanted to see a stronger connection between the supplement and research. There is the issue with users reporting side effects, but this is a rare occasion.
If your goal is to slim down, we suggest a supplement promoting weight-loss by using clinically-tested ingredients, backed by positive comments and not associated with harmful side effects.
Among the best products we've seen this year is one called Dietspotlight Burn. The supplement combines four clinically-tested ingredients to promote weight-loss. All of the extracts have been shown to help accelerate metabolism and ignite fat loss. Dieters tell us they see great results, but don't mention harmful side effects.
Also, the makers of Dietspotlight Burn are so confident in their product, that they're offering customers a Special Trial Offer.
