Over the course of March in Sacramento, the length of the day is rapidly increasing. From the start to the end of the month, the length of the day increases by 1 hour, 15 minutes, implying an average daily increase of 2 minutes, 31 seconds, and weekly increase of 17 minutes, 35 seconds.
Strangulation is an ultimate form of power and control where the batterer can demonstrate control over the victimâs next breath: it may have devastating psychological effects or a potentially fatal outcome.
Strangles is an upper respiratory disease of horses caused by the bacteria Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (S. equi). The disease has been reported as early as the thirteenth century. It causes a distinctive swelling under the jaw and around the neck, prompting early veterinarians to name the disease strangles. Despite the colorful name I have never seen a horse strangle to death but I have seen horses that looked close to death.
