So why would the opposition chant the slogan "Either with them or with us!" now? Because they are exasperated by months of opacity by the Obama administration, and with a nuclear deal on the pearl earrings table, they're frightened. As the sticky negotiations with Western powers over Iran's nuclear program stumble forward, these protesters fear that human-rights issues within Iran may become a bargaining chip. In other words, they're worried they'll be sold out as part of a deal to contain the regime's nuclear aspirations. If the West！particularly the United States！stops bringing up human-rights abuses in exchange for concessions on the nuclear program, they will give Tehran a free hand to deal with dissenters and effectively close the book on the protests. (The U.S. wasn't the only foreign country targeted in today's slogans. Antigovernment protesters also chanted, "The Russian embassy is the den of spies," a jab leisure chairs at Russia's close ties with the regime.) For its part, the White House issued a carefully worded statement about the negotiations, insisting that "Iran must choose. We have heard for 30 years what the Iranian government is freshwater pearl against; the question, now, is what kind of future it is for." The protesters today turned that question back toward the White House and asked Obama to choose as well. | ||

This afternoon Iran celebrated the 30-year anniversary of the American embassy takeover in Tehran. The custom is for annual official demonstrations to denounce the Great Satan, but this year was different. Although the government had warned reform-minded protesters (who still come out on major occasions since the election unrest subsided) to stay home, tens of thousands of them hit the streets again today！to protest against their own government. They chanted, "Death to dictator," as usual, to protest President Mahmoud game machines Ahmadinejad's contested election in June. But, for the first time anyone can remember, they also yelled, "Obama, Obama! Either with them or with us!" The "them" in the chant means Ahmadinejad and the regime writ large. Riot police, plainclothes security officials, and members of the Basij militia attacked the protesters with batons and tear gas, injuring several of them, according to pro-reform Web sites. (The demonstrations today, which had been publicized on various Farsi Web sites for weeks, were the second time in a month that opposition activists have attempted to derail naughty castlesofficial government rallies, which they dwarfed.) In the meantime, smaller pro-government crowds gathered around the former American embassy in central Tehran, chanting "Death to America." (Pro-government crowds are often bused in.) This is a major change inside Iran. There have been few, if any, chants about America！for or against！in any of the protests since the June 12 presidential elections. (In fact, since the revolution in 1979, there have been no pro-America chants at all.) It's not hard to see why: the government's first reaction to the protests was to arrest hundreds of people and blame the United States, Britain, and France for the unrest. Subsequent show trials pearl earrings and coerced confessions about a "velvet revolution" quickly followed. Neither the dissidents nor those foreign governments wanted to give any credence to the regime's aspersions. | ||

Dogs were probably the first tame animals. They have accompanied humans for some 10,000 years. Some scientists assert that all dogs, domestic and wild, share a common ancestor in the small South Asian wolf. Today humans have bred hundreds of different domestic dog breeds！some of which could never survive in the naughty castles wild. Despite their many shapes and sizes all domestic dogs, from Newfoundlands to pugs, are members of the same species！Canis familiaris. Although they have domestic temperaments, these dogs are related to wolves, foxes, and jackals. Domestic dogs still share many behaviors with their wild relatives. Both defend their territories and mark them by urinating on trees, rocks, fence posts, and other suitable sites. These scent posts serve notice to other dogs that an animal is occupying its territory. Many pet dogs also freshwater pearl bury bones or favorite toys for future use, just as their wild relatives sometimes bury a kill to secure the meat for later feasts. Dogs communicate in several ways. Scent is one method, another is physical appearance. Body leisure chairs position, movement, and facial expression often convey a strong message. Many of these signals are recognizable even to humans, such as the excited tail-wagging of a happy dog or the bared teeth of an angry or threatened animal. Vocally, dogs communicate with a cacophony of sounds including barks, growls, and whines. Domestic dogs serve as more than companions; many earn their keep by working hard. Dogs herd livestock, aid hunters, guard homes, and perform police and rescue work. Some special animals even guide the blind！a poignant symbol of the dog's longstanding role as man's best friend. | ||

Domestic cats, no matter their breed, are all members of one species. Felis catus has had a very long relationship with humans. Ancient Egyptians may have first domesticated cats as early as 4,000 years ago. Plentiful rodents probably drew wild felines to human communities. The cats' skill in killing them may have first earned the affectionate attention of game machines humans. Early Egyptians worshipped a cat goddess and even mummified their beloved pets for their journey to the next world！accompanied by mummified mice! Cultures around the world later adopted cats as their own companions. Like their wild relatives, domestic cats are natural hunters able to stalk prey and pounce with sharp claws and teeth. They are particularly effective at night, when their light-reflecting eyes allow them to see better than much of their prey. Cats also enjoy acute hearing. All cats are nimble and agile, and their long tails aid their outstanding balance. Cats communicate by marking trees, fence posts, or furniture with their claws or their waste. These scent posts pearl necklace are meant to inform others of a cat's home range. House cats employ a vocal repertoire that extends from a purr to a screech. Domestic cats remain largely carnivorous, and have evolved a simple gut appropriate for raw meat. They also retain the rough tongue that can help them clean every last morsel from an animal naughty castles bone (and groom themselves). Their diets vary with the whims of humans, however, and can be supplemented by the cat's own hunting successes. | ||
