I know this is a very broad question.
But does anyone know the average cost of a dog day care?
And also, what do they do with the doggies? Do they just stick them in kennels most of the day and only take them out every now and then to use the bathroom, or do they actually have activities for them or train them or anything?
Thanks!

basic Islam teaching is to belive that God is One and denying that God is 3 which was tought by chrestianity, of course that implies denying the divine nature of Jesuse and the Bible is not the true words of God. But now muslems consider Mohammed divine interms of his words acts and almost every thing, even in some acts which other consider it wrong i.e marrying 9 years old girl and having 9 wives in the same time, muslems consider these acts are divine. Why muslem deny the divine nature of Jesuse and consider Muhammed's word and acts are divine? so in the begining the deny the divine nature of human but later gave that to Muhammed.

Bill Bennett and Rod Paige on national standards and tests!

Former Education Secretaries Bill Bennett and Rod Paige weigh in on national standards and testing in the September 21 Washington Post:

Forty years ago the sociologist James S. Coleman made clear that there's no reliable connection between the resources going into a school and the learning that comes out. Fifty years ago economist Milton Friedman made clear that in education, as in other spheres, monopolies don't work as well as markets. That's why most Republicans and some Democrats favor school choice in its myriad versions and why many, like us, have also embraced today's other important education reform strategy: standards, testing and tough accountability for schools.

But there's a problem. Out of respect for federalism and mistrust of Washington, much of the GOP has expected individual states to set their own academic standards and devise their own tests and accountability systems. That was the approach of the No Child Left Behind Act -- which moved as boldly as it could while still achieving bipartisan support. It sounds good, but it is working badly. A new Fordham Foundation report shows that most states have deployed mediocre standards, and there's increasing evidence that some are playing games with their tests and accountability systems....

The remedy? As both of us have long argued, Washington should set sound national academic standards and administer a high-quality national test. Publicize everybody's results, right down to the school level. Then Washington should butt out.

Read the entire Post op-ed here.
