I can guarantee my dog stopped barking after this.

not like dogs can't have feathers, and cutting them is probably more pleasant than defeathering the pheasant.

Is there a beer out there specifically brewed to contain complex carbohydrates?

Who's the tallest midget that ever lived?
|
Midget is not a medical term and is therefore not a labeled basis for record keeping.
|
Historically midget in medical terms meant a proportional dwarf (before it became an offensive term), so I think you might be able to find some historical records.

Going by the closest thing to definition of this on Wikipedia (it mostly says"of unusually small stature" and such) we get
"In humans, dwarfism is sometimes defined as an adult height of less than 4 feet 10 inches (58 in; 147 cm).[1]"
And with that definition, you'd get the tallest dwarf to be just below 147cm. Who is that? Seeing that length varies a couple cm over the day, probably not well defined... or at least it changes on daily (hourly) basis.

Length varies over the day? I never knew.

I actually started to doubt it for a second so I checked it up. It is true:
The effects of gravity on the upright human posture are powerful: Individuals are as much as 25 mm taller in the morning than in the evening, as a result of compressive forces bearing down all day [51,52], and astronauts 'grow' by nearly 75 mm when released from the force of the earth's gravity [53]. at least according to Hawes et. al.

Is there an emergency number for pets? Like, if someone is having a heart attack, you call 911 for help. Who should I call if my turtle has an emergency?
|
Just call your usual veterinary (or take the animal to their place if it's close enough). He'll acknowledge this is an emergency, and come.

I am not sure if you can't be fined for doing that here. At least I would expect that you will be told to fuck off briskly.

Most Vets have a 24 hour answering service even if they are not big enough to have 24 hour staff. Es specially any vet service who does business in the country as the animals are worth 1000;s of dollars and the customers demand it. Depending on the place there could be extra charges.

Yep, my fiancee's a veterinarian, as is her father. There's always a vet clinic/ animal hospital number you can call for emergencies, even if the office is closed. Find out from your veterinarian!

Would be interesting to find out.

When there are human lives to be saved, you don't want 911 drowned under requests from old women who lost their car or whose chihuahua is behaving weirdly.
