As a Horse, you're sensitive, peaceful, and social. You easily make friends with members of all species, but you hold a special place in your heart for those who respect your intelligence. Sometimes your empathy can leave you vulnerable to others' moods or manipulations. Don't let one grumpy person ruin your whole day.

i bought a house today. closing was semi-smooth .. although i looked at the 3 cats across the tabel - the broker, the banker, and tthe title maker - and i saw them as the axis of evil ... even though they were perfectly nice people. does this make me a bad person?

i'm very excited about being a first-time-ever homeowner ... but scared to death!

Even though it is hard to see it, sometimes (especially with a president, such as we have), we really are lucky to be American. Even though our laws don't always work out in practice, I am so greatful that they exist. I am so grateful for the IDEALS of America. I really am.

Rape law rankles some Pakistan lawmakers

Lawmakers from a coalition of six Islamic groups threatened on Tuesday to vacate their parliamentary seats if Pakistan's government changes a rape law criticized by human rights activists.

A walkout by the 68 lawmakers could destabilize the government of President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, criticized by Islamic parties since his ruling party last month presented a bill to amend the law in a bid to protect women's rights.

Pakistan's National Assembly has 344 members. A walkout could force by-elections.

Under the current law, approved by a former military dictator in 1979, prosecuting a rape case requires testimony from four witnesses, making punishment almost impossible because such attacks are rarely public.

A woman who claims she was raped but fails to prove her case can be convicted of adultery, punishable by death.

Maulana Fazalur Rahman, a leader of the Islamic coalition, said Tuesday that lawmakers in his group would vacate their seats in the National Assembly if the government tries to get the assembly's approval to change the law.

"We will render every sacrifice for the protection of the Shariah (traditional Islamic) laws," he said at a news conference.

However, the ruling Pakistan Muslim Party -- which has a majority in the assembly -- has praised Musharraf for taking steps to amend the law and end the four-witness requirement

folk tales necklace -- i got this pendant in rajasthan, india (jodhpur); it is antique and depicts the story of 7 sisters and a brother. i strung it on a double strand of garnet stones with large hill tribe silver beads. this sale i have going on brings the price down to less than the value of the pendant alone. sweet deal. perhaps i'm crazy -- but i will be going to Indonesia to do field research this winter (on shadow puppets) and i need to clear some stock.

Your Inner Child Is Happy

You see life as simple, and simple is a very good thing.

You're cheerful and upbeat, taking everything as it comes.

And you decide not to worry, even when things look bad.

You figure there's just so many great things to look forward to.

How Is Your Inner Child?

You are like Dr Teeth

Cool as a cucumber with a sinister soul that preys on the unfortunate. People getting Dr Teeth as a result cover their actions with a smile and have no shame!

You Are 29 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?
