It was Mel Blanc. He was also the voice of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety, and many other cartoon characters.

What is the height of a pig?

The Hereford pig is very similar to pigs like the Hampshire, Yorkshire, Duroc, etc. A reasonable size pig (which is kept on a weight maintaining diet) is approximately 4 feet long. They stand approximately 2.5 feet tall. This is only if the pig is approximately 350 pounds. The heavier they get, the larger they get. They can be 5, 6, 7, or even more feet long. If you're wanting this to be a healthy (safe piglet bearing if female) pig, you should not let your pig get much larger than 350 pounds. The larger they get, the more health issues they can get. If you have a female and are planning to breed, it is unsafe to have a larger sow. There can be risks, whether it be a smaller number of young, the death of her young, or even the death of her. If you have a boar, you do not want him to exceed 350 pounds. If he is bigger than a sow or gilt, he is probably too big. He can severily hurt or damage his mates. If you are going to eat your pig, the best time to take it to slaughter is at 350 pounds. You should let your pig gain much fat. The more muscular the pig is, the better. It is best to not feed your pig slop (no matter what its purpose is). The higher protein feed is also better especially when added with daily exercise.

Original color of Parthenon?

The Parthenon was not originally white. In the early 19th century art historians first proposed that the Parthenon, along with all ancient Greek structures were actually painted. The term for this is "polychromy." It has taken a long time for scholars to accept that this building was painted because of preconceived notions about the architectural purity of Greek buildings. However, close observation and modern scientific analysis have proven that the Parthenon was in fact originally painted several different hues including blue, gold, and red. The University of Iowa has done a computer generated model of what the temple may have looked like with its paint in tact.

No, basketballs are impossible to be pig bladders because they would rot after time yes cause some people in some country's are to pov to buy leather to make a ball so they get pig and sheep bladders and wrap cloth around them. They last for more than a week before they need replacing. pig bladders are not the basketball material anymore cuz they would totaly rot after a couple dayz! it could be possible to make one out of that.. but i highly doubt it.. so technically my answer is NOO.. The first basketballs were leather soccer balls (the early game eschewed much dribbling) and contained a pair of rubberized pig bladders to hold the air. These were then encased in a cloth bag to hold them in position.

Why can Jewish people eat cows and not pigs?

Because cows "cheweth the cud."

Why are pigs important to our society?

Well, plenty of ways. First of all, they're excellent medical models due to their anatomic similarity to humans (at least in the body cavity, limbs are obviously quite different), their social behavior, and their large intelligence relative to other experimental species, barring the Chimpanzee. Along similar lines, pig organs have been implanted into humans for quite a few decades now, particularly hearts and heart valves but I believe kidneys and others have been used on occasion as well. Other than that, there's, you know, the obvious ham/bacon/pork chops... ...As well as being a symbol of many things, such as police officers, religious diet restrictions, the socialist elite (thank George Orwell's "Animal Farm" for that one), and the capitalist elite (I have no idea where that one came from). In the middle east, they are a symbol of drastic uncleanliness, as opposed to the almost endearing uncleanliness they represent here in the States. Also, I hear that the Chinese character for "home" contains the radical for "pig" under the radical for "structure", or something similar, indicating that at some point in the etymologies of that character and the radical itself, the keeping of a pig was seen as synonymous with having one's own land and place of living. So it appears that Man's fate is as tied to swine as it is to our beloved dog and horse. I mean, you can't get much more intimate than sharing organs.

What makes the sound when you snap your fingers?

Stick your thumb in a coke bottle and "pop" it out.

Clap you hands when flat and then when cupped (much louder).

The majority of the sound is from the rapid change in air compression.

In the case of the fingers, the air pocket made by the lower 2 fingers when rapidly struck by the releasing middle finger.

Others can "snap" their fingers by actually using the thumb with other fingers in a fist (like the coke bottle above)

Another example is the "pop" made by rapidly pulling your tongue from the roof of your mouth.

  • Bulls**t, its caused by your finger hitting the palm of your hand, watch yourself doing it. Then try to click them without letting your finger hit your palm. See

Why don't Jews eat pig?

In the Torah, the holy Jewish text, which G-d gave to us at Mt Sinai, there is a list of foods that are unkosher and that we are meant to avoid (Deuteronomy ch.14). These include shellfish and pork. Only fish with both fins and scales are to be eaten by Jews. Also, any meat we eat must be killed and prepared according to the Kashrut (kosher) rules.

On a practical note; back then and indeed now, many of these foods are the ones that do carry disease. In particular, pork and shellfish are known to cause food poisoning relatively easily, especially back then, when there was no refrigeration. But we keep these laws because of God's command, not for side-reasons.

Why do Jews think the pig is unclean?

Pigs are called unclean because of ancient policies designed to prevent people dying. The Abrahamic religions (Christianity to a lesser extent than the others) were created in the Middle East, an area of high temperatures and ard conditions. Pigs don't sweat - it's physically impossible. So any toxin that would have been flushed out with sweat builds up in the skin. Eating such flesh would then poison anyone that ate it. People of that time not knowing how the body works and already superstitious enough to be religious, the pig must therefore be controlled by a demon of some kind that moved into humans who ate of the pig. Other reasons include the fact that pigs will eat anything, even a dead person, so to avoid being spiritually "contaminated" they had to be avoided. Many other aspects of the pig's eating habits have also affected this viewpoint.

Jewish Answer:

Jewish dietary law does not specify that pigs are unclean, but rather, that they are unfit for eating. Pigs are actually just one of countless animals considered unfit for consumption. The actual rule for mammals is that they must have both split hooves and chew their cud. The above answer has nothing to do with Jewish law.
