3 is half of 8, what secret society hacked this cryptic clue in our Arabic Numerals and why?
Q. Davinci was not the only one to encrypt secret messages. Our Arabic numerals is an example-- half of 8 is 4, but only in the mathematical sense (for those right brained thinkers). The Graphic sense (for those left brain thinkers) show us another side, in this case half of 8 is 3. When counting from 1-10 and straight along your fingers (given that you have the standard 10) you will find that 3 and 8 each land on a middle finger. Is this coincidence, or a secret code? Lets explore. The numbers 3 and 8 were changed from their original Arabic characters around 1800 years ago. This is also interesting: Early Pagans -- fertility cult worshipers were often persecuted for their beliefs-- mainly because they worshipped a femal deity equal to that… [cont.]

How much would a 8 week old husky puppy cost on average?
Q. I am planning on buying a 8 week old husky puppy and a breeder was asking for $742. I am wondering on top of all supplies for the dog if this is too high and i should look to adopt a puppy or am I getting a good deal.

A. You should definitely adopt a dog. A puppy at a breeder is going to get a good home. A puppy at a shelter will be put to sleep if a good home isnt found. Thousands are put to sleep every day in the U.S., just because noone wants them. A shelter puppy will already have its vaccinations up to date, and they will give you a coupon to have the puppy spayed/neutered when it gets old enough for only $15. Please adopt. $742 is a lot to spend on a dog. Why not spend that on dog toys and vet care for a shelter dog? You could also look online for a Husky rescue in your area. Good Luck!
