Miss Manners. Yes, she’s a service dog. No, I won’t tell you why I need her.

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 15:49:12 GMT

DEAR MISS MANNERS: I have a disability that is not readily visible, and I have a service dog to help me navigate the world and go about my business.She is a small dog and suits my needs very well, but she’s not one of the classic breeds that people associate with service dogs.When I enter a space that is not pet-friendly, I am often questioned about my dog. Of course, I have no problem clarifying that she is a service animal, but I do not wish to engage beyond that.I am often asked multiple follow-up questions, leading to the invasive question of what my disability is, exactly. It’s hard to explain, it’s really no one’s business, and I feel so flummoxed by the questioning that I often don’t want to go out at all (which defeats the very purpose of my having a service dog).Related ArticlesAdvice | Miss Manners: Would the wedding gift my husband suggested be an insult?

Greece’s conservatives achieve big victory but fall short of majority

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 15:49:12 GMT

ATHENS — Greece’s conservative ruling party achieved a huge victory in Sunday’s election, but it will have to wait for a second vote later this summer in its bid to secure an outright majority.The New Democracy party of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis managed to gain a double-digit lead over its main rival, the left-wing Syriza party, and was missing only a few seats for a majority even with the new proportional representation system, according to early results.“The political earthquake that occurred today calls on all of us to accelerate the process for a final governmental solution,” Mitsotakis declared Sunday evening from his party headquarters.“The data from the ballot box is catalytic — it proves that New Democracy has the approval to govern independently and strongly and they demanded it emphatically, in an absolute way,” he said.With 75 percent of the votes counted, New Democracy was poised to get 40.8 percent of the vote and 145 seats in the 300-seat parliament.
