They won’t get any of my money.

Nor mine knowingly!  Do they in any way get tax dollars?

So we're protesting Starbucks because they take care of their employees? 

I'm getting strong Eugene Levy vibes from those eyebrows... but what would be a feminine twist on that? Jean/Gene? Gina? I haven't had enough coffee to be creative yet. Lol.

I am 110% for this law. But, I'm kind of glad it didn't exist 5-10 years ago when I had a lab mix who REFUSED to come inside when it was cold out. That dog lived to jump in the snow. I would've been a felon 17 times over by now.

Have seen OSHA fine companies $3k to $7k for ground plugs missing on extension cords.

This $12k fine is a slap in the face to the man that died, his family, and every employee at the landfill. Like I said many, many posts ago this area of PA is the most underhanded corrupt place I have ever seen and this just proves it again!! 

I expected them to get away with it given who they are and their history, but this is absolutely ridiculous. A slap in the face doesn't even begin to cover it.

This small town, big name nonsense has gotta go. That's all I can really say about it anymore. Don't wanna get myself banned.

(This is just the beginning total too, FYI. Before they negotiate with OSHA and get it knocked in half...)

That is absolutely pathetic. $12k is pocket change to the owners of Advanced.

I've seen fines for $3,000+ because one employee was not wearing their safety glasses. (Not at Advanced.)

Come on...

I had to sign back in today & now when I click a thread it puts me on original post, not last read. 

Same here.

I rent my house and have a 70 lb. pitbull who would just use them as chew toys. But.... one day! It's on my list.

They're so cute. You guys are making me want to start raising chickens.

My buddy 

I will be calling Mr. Gabler's office today. For anyone who wishes to do the same (which by the way, you absolutely should)...

What Petee said. Any help is good help though, even something small like setting up a little watering station in your yard (any kind of shallow container with water in it, and rocks, marbles, etc. to give them something to sit on.)

If we lose bees, we are in serious trouble.

I encourage everyone to research ways to help.

Planting bee-friendly flowers, buying local organic honey, setting up a bee watering station in your yard, even donating to bee protection societies... we need these little guys around.

Holy rottweiler heaven! They're adorable.

Omg that first picture in the article is easily the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Oh, NOW he cares about animals? That's cute....

I had the same problem with my lab, she's still on Proin but it's working for the most part. We got our diaper for her from the vet (reusable, washable type) and then just put cheap maxi pads in it. Like someone else said, I'm sure you can find all kinds of options on Amazon and I'm sure they're much cheaper than getting something from the vet.

Blue Buffalo Freedom brand - it's definitely pricier than Pedigree, but it has no grains whatsoever and the ingredients as a whole are a little better.

Their website has a comparison thing as well to show ingredients and benefits of your brand vs. theirs. This is Pedigree's: http://bluebuffalo.com/true-blue-test/compare-dog-food/results/?brandPageId=5326&testPageId=5317

Oh my god.... how could anyone do this to that sweet girl? I hate hearing stuff like this.. but I'm glad she's okay. Poor thing.

They should staple the tip of his nose to his bottom lip and let him live like that for the rest of forever. -insert 27 curse words I'd probably get banned for here-

Wow... I too opened this hoping it was a joke.

Like many, I only knew her through here but she was easily one of the most kind-hearted and intelligent people I've spoken to on here.

This is so sad, but I must say I am glad to hear she went peacefully.

R.I.P. Jennifer.

Blue cohosh maybe?

You're related to me

I might be related to half the people on this thread too, quite a bit of Kesslers. You're the only one I know the "identity" of outside of GoDuBois though haha

Welp, I might as well jump on the bandwagon too.

I've got Kessler, Horne, Lucas, and Conrad.

Too precious. That little guy all sprawled out on his bed is just the cutest.

More shelters should do something like this. Really does show the huge difference you can make in a pup's life by adopting.

I remember when I was a teenager visiting a place in Brockway they called Gravity Hill.  Can't for the life of me remember where it is, does anyone remember it?

I've heard of a couple. Maybe Game School Road?
