    Flying a cat FROM Argentina TO the USA

    Suggest you take her along with you in the cabin. I recall seeing a sign fixed with scotch tape to a wall in Ezeiza from a lady that travelled from Italy to Santa Cruz de la Sierra (Bolivia) by Aerolíneas Argentinas with her 3 cats in different carriages. She was asking for help to find one of...

    Public Free Pet Sterilization - Your Experiences

    Unfortunately vets at public zoonosis are public administration employees which means they rule themselves by the law of the least effort. They were very unprofessional and irresponsible to let you leave with your cat before she recovered from anesthesia.

    Too Many Pizzerias And Carbs In Bsas Stop This Now

    Cultural habits change over time and meat is (fortunately) slowly but surely being left out of diets. That is good news for moral reasons (animal exploitation, cruelty and murder), health reasons and sustainability. Highly recommend this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQCe4qEexjc

    Public Universities

    As for international university rankins, I do wonder how they gather the information. The truth is that I know many argentinians that go to the US to take an MBA that do not stand out for the intelectual capabilities and yet I do not know one of them that failed to get it.

    Public Universities

    UNLP is a good choice. It has a history of solid public education which is certainly superior to private universities. As for Psychology, not sure what orientation they hold. UBA is all about Freud and mostly Lacan. It would be wise to take paralell courses in other institutions if UNLP has an...

His chances are not the best as he is about 8 years old but maybe the universe holds a bit of good fortune for him. Like a friend of mine saya "life can change in a minute". Let's...

    Work and Salary Expectations

    Please don't take the fact that your employees have not thanked you for their salary increase personal. It's just a cultural bias made up by two factors: 1) argentians have previous experience of high inflation rates and seeing their salaries depreciated always running behing and 2) culturally...

    Scandal in Argentina

    Please be serious. You can hardly call a private matter (and most probably a lie) a scandal. I am truly tired of hearing so much crap about our president. In the recent past I offen heard that "he" (in regard to former president Kircher) ran the country and that she was just a puppet. I used to...

    HELP! Should I cancel my California Health Insurre?ance? Is there good healthcare he

    Health coverage in Argentina is universal and truly nothing compared to what is shown in Micheal Moore's last documentary SICKO. Although public health infrastructure is in bad shape because of decades budget cuts, doctors are very good and even transplants are carried out without having to pay...

He's treated both...
