What is the name of the region of France in which Strasbourg is located and what roll does it play?
Strasbourg is located in northeastern France near the German border. It lies within Alsace and is the principal city of the region.
Strasbourg has a heavy German influence due to its proximity to Germany as well as the fact that the region has changed hands between France and Germany on several occasions beween the 17th and 20th century.

I don't know what the name of the Chinese tool may have been, but one of the names for inking tools today is a brayer. Is that possibly what you are thinking of?

What is the name for a horse that will always throw spotted colts no matter what you breed them too?
I can't remember what the guy told us but that is what my yearling is. I can't wait until she is old enough to breed, her babies will be gorgeous!
What is the name for a horse that will always throw spotted colts no matter what you breed them too?
The answer isn't Paint, Pinto or Appaloosa as most of those only carry one gene for spotting, so only have a 50% chance of a spotted foal if bred to a solid horse.
The term you are looking for is "Homozygous". Each horse has two genes for specific things. Color genes are an example. If a horse has one gene for spots, and one for solid, then they will be spotted themselves but still can throw solid colored foals. But some horses have two spotted genes, then they will always raise a spotted baby no matter what they are bred to. Tobiano is a type of Paint/Pinto pattern that can be homozygous.
Black is a color that can be homozyous, too, so can the pattern roan. Cremello colored horses are an example of horses that are homozygous for the cream gene, so they will always have palomino or buckskin foals. So the term can be used for many things, not just the spotted pattern.
Reply:You didn't mention if your yearling is a paint or an appaloosa or a POA. If it is an appaloosa or a POA the homozygous color patterns are referred to as a fewspot, which is mainly a white horse with very "few spots" usually about 5 or so total, they can have coloring on their points, legs, mane and tail. They can also have a snowcap blanket, which is a blanketed horse with no spots in the blanket.
Hope this helps!
Reply:The term "Homozygous" refers to a stallion's propensity to consistently "throw" color - or the potential for his offspring to exhibit spotted or colored traits as opposed to solid colors.
The stallions parent's DNA or blood need to be tested in order to certify him as Homozygous. Without this certification, the stallion owner can say the horse is homozygous but cannot prove it.
If one owns such a stallion, his stud fees are usually thought to be more valuable as the opinion is that color, being non standard, is more popular now than solid. Therefore, stallion owners started testing for this and those that are proven to consistently result in colored foals have a "leg up" on the other stallions.
I have two Paint mares from the same sire and dam. One is solid and one is painted. The stallion therefore cannot be homozygous because there is a chance his foals will result in solid colors.
It will be interesting to see what happens with this now with all the hubub and registration changes coming about in the AQHA and Paint Horse rules. In the very week that AQHA's news magazine came out describing the color "Rubicano" and how those horses are registered within their organization, my mothers highly typical Rubicano colored mare's registration papers were received stamped right across the front "undesirable" as relating to her color. This was 100% opposite what the magazine from the very registration organization was touting as having made an acceptable color.
I believe that color plays no part in any horse's abilities, behaviour or clarity of mind, while many others will tell you that paints are typically different (worse) mentally than quarter horses and they'll tell you that Appaloosa's are all as goofy as they have spots. These, I believe, are nothing more than a person's inability to interact well with a horse so they make general statements about the horse to discredit it rather than their ability to understand and successfully interact with it.
Hope this helps answer your question.
Reply:Homozygous.
Technically, there is a chance you will get a homozygous foal when you breed two tobiano horses together, which means that your horse IS a tobiano. so when you breed your horse to another horse, your foal will get the tobiano coat gene no matter what!
Its a really cool thing!
Good Luck!
Reply:It's Homozygous
but it could be hideozygous...
A horse with a roman nose, short neck, straight shoulder, flat back, post legs, herring guy, sickle hocks, pig eyes, parrot mouth, tiny hooves, upside-down neck, no hip, "nest" or otherwise conformationally deficent or unattractive; used for breeding simply because the horse is a "Guranteed" color producer.

Reply:You don't breed a mare (or stud) just because it is homozygous. Too many horses are being bred for the wrong reasons. Conformation and ability first, then worry about the color. There is already a glut on the market, don't add to it needlessly. Have some fun with her. Ride her, show her if you want. Don't worry about breeding.

coral castle in homestead fl........then he moved the entire project by himself to another site........some of the stones wieghed tons-

he didn't build it himself, of course.
Reply:Lots of people have done that,including Herman Goering; he called it Karinhall. He blew it up before evacuating to the south,but unfortunately the tomb survived the explosion,so the bolshies desecrated his wife's remains. It took her brother years of negotiations to get her bones back for a decent burial in Sweden. Why,who were you thinking of?

Legend has it that he spent the remainder of his days gazing through the window at the Taj Mahal. Upon Shah Jahan's death, Aurangzeb buried him in the Taj Mahal next to his wife, the only disruption of the otherwise perfect symmetry in the architecture.

What is the name of the font that is used in the Twilight Movie Posters?
I'm not asking what font they used in the Twilight books (specifically, the Zephyr). Because Zephyr and the font on the Twilight posters are different. Can anybody tell me what's the name of the font they used in the posters? Thanks in advance!
What is the name of the font that is used in the Twilight Movie Posters?
I just went to a site called myfonts and in the 'Find Fonts' section I searched for Zephyr then I put in 'twilight' in the preview and it looks just like what's on the Twilight poster...but you also said Zephyr font and the Twilight poster is different...but if you look here it is the same.
http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/ihof/zephyr... - scroll down to see the word Twilight.
http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/forum...
To me, the difference is the font size of the letter 'l' in Twilight, it is slightly larger than the rest.
But anyway I found a link for this font here...
