do they mean the horizontal axis, nose points north and the tail aligns south? what do dogs do in australia? does the deposit coil counter-clockwise like the water in a toilet bowl swirls? or do they mean the vertical axis, orifice down and peak of pile up? we on the flat surface tend to think of directions as 2-d, this way or that. but really the earth is a sphere, our connection to the axis is 3-d and variable relative to position.

after that it gets confusing to me. all i know is if 2 dogs are pooping, i want to be the one on top.

Nose to the North tail to the South. I don't know about the clockwise counterclockwise thing, I'll have to keep an eye out for that one. eye5.gif

Nobody told my dogs.

Dixie goes in multiple directions- but mostly facing west.

Must study this more closely.

Dogs are sensitive to small variations of the Earth’s magnetic field

Conclusions

We demonstrate, for the first time (a) magnetic sensitivity
in dogs, (b) a measurable,
predictable behavioral reaction upon natural magnetic field (MF) fluctuation in a mammal,

and (c) high sensitivity to small changes in polarity, rather than
in intensity, of the MF. Our
findings open new horizons in magnetoreception research. The newly introduced animal

model (dog), paradigm (alignment during excretion) and parameter
(relative declination
change) open new horizons for biomagnetic research. Particularly
the findings that already
small fluctuations in Earth’s magnetic field elicit a behavioral response and the fact that

“normal” magnetic conditions under which dogs express their orientation behavior
occur only
in about 30 % of all cases call for caution. When extrapolated upon other
animals and other
experiments and observations on animal magnetoreception, this might explain the non-replicability of many findings and high scatter in others.
Behavioral scientists need to revise

their former experiments and observations and consider the phenomenon in their current and

future experiments. The phenomenon challenges biophysicists to formulate testable

hypotheses for mechanisms responsible for magnetoreception of inconsistencies of the

direction of the MF direction. Finally, it forces biologists and physicians to seriously

reconsider effects magnetic storms might pose on organisms.

dennis rodman is ballin' in north korea. as far as i'm concerned he already earned his special place in hell for his contributions to the bulls vs. jazz michael jordan cyborg debacle. but the worm better be careful or he might arrive at his destination early, i hear if you tick kim off he'll feed you to the dogs. you know what they about dancing with the devil...

Rodman dedicated the game Wednesday to his "best friend" Kim, who along with his wife and other senior officials and their wives watched from a special seating area.

The capacity crowd of about 14,000 clapped loudly as Rodman sang a verse from the birthday song

Rodman????? If you're going to be Stupid you gotta be Tough.

Jordan's push-off on Bryon Russell still pisses me off.

As far as Rodman and his new best buddie, anything that sticks a thumb in the eye of our commander and his idiotic "pivot toward Asia" works for me. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, no?

this is why i will never get married again.

but i maybe could be convinced to kiss the bride.

a couple of stories caught my eye today.
