HSUS Investigates Slaughterhouse
If you click the link, you can see the video. California workers were under craaaazy investigation after it was discovered that their livestock are badly mistreated, beaten and brutally harmed. Wasn't even just the "downed" cows eitha! -- Downed meaning diseased-- The Humane Society found that the workers would punish their animals--ones that are too sick or injured to walk.
This bizzarre, and unnecessary shabang all took place at the Hallmark Meat Packing Co. in Chino, CA, kinda near my hang out spot of L to the A! The animals they harm are slaughtered and supplied to one of the local school districts for their lunch programs. I'd be damned if i was feastin on some helpless defenseless cow who was murked all because he couldn't walk!
Going back to the video, it shows how the animals are jabbed in the eyes, kicked, electrically shocked, and etc--some real narly stuff happens! The Humane Society took action and used the undercover footage from this vid to turn in to Law enforcement immediately. Their main point was, downer cows are different than diseased ones and do not have to be treated like that! and when the term "Diseased" cows are used, i'm talkin bout the ones with that nasty madcow disease, or samonella-- you know, the real intense cow disesases that can spread and kill not only the cattle, but people as well! So, downed, diseased cows gotta be killed immediately so they don't spread the fungus amogst the other cows, but the injured or sick cows don't count as "downed" cows, and should juss be able to live their lives! Well, the live they're expected to live before they become my next meal!
(Taken directly from the article) The Humane Society wants Congress to intervene. The Farm Animal Stewardship Partner Act would set modest animal welfare standards, including humane euthanasia of any downed animals, for producers who sell food to federal government programs, and the Downed Animal Protection Act would ban any slaughtering of downed animals for human consumption.
In my personal opinion, the animals are going to die anyways, so it really should not matter.....BUT, although this is true, this still is not a go ahead for workers to do what was shown in this video!
I think it is kind of hard to determine, only because these workers kill cows for a living, so why would they have any remorse, sympathy, and etc. for the animals? It's just like going to war. The US would not help an Iraqee who is a member of Al Queda that possibly tried to take out an American, all because they're sick or too injured. The Army was trained to kill, and they're going to act in that manner. That probably isn't the best example but, i just feel like yeah, it is wrong, but you can't put much passed the workers--they kill these animals daily. It's nothing to them.
In conclusion, it goes eitha way...the cattle are gonna die regardless. Yes, there is protocal, and no, certain things shouldn't happen. It's a pretty screwy situation but i'm damn sure as hell glad i don't gotta be the one to have the final say so or play any part in that!!

AXE CLEAN YO' BALLS!
CONTROVERSY:
Just when you probably thought commercials and tv in general couldn't get any more sexual, Axe tops it off again! Axe's latest commercial consists of derogatory implications of "balls" aka, male genitals. The two- non-grenades, some foreign chick with a hott accent and Jamie Pressley, give a demonstration on how well Axe cleans. The demonstration that was used were sports balls--tennis balls, golf balls, soccer balls-- just one huge ball extravaganza! During the demo, a few people in the audience had little roles where one guy holds up two tennis balls sayin "What about my dirty balls?"-- Jamie Pressly responds with "Throw those fuzzy, hairy, balls down here"-- Another guy stands up with a net full of soccer balls and says "What about my ball sack?" The most classic and EPIC line was the old man coming out with the oldest, probably nation's first ever made basketballs-- Jamie responds with "We can clean your dirty old balls, too." This commercial has people everywhere goin' absolutely insane, claiming it's suggestive to children-- which it is. People claimed although it is pretty funny, it's a body wash-- you're not going to use a body wash to clean sports balls-- obviously they're talking about male body parts. Regardless, the commercial is still on air and hasn't been yanked yet, and probably won't be either. As much controversy as it has caused, it causes just as much laughter.
COMMENTARY:
As David Meerman Scott says--which couldn't be any more relevant- We fill our lists with balls and lose sight of the goal-- except, my homies at Axe haven't lost their balls, they've just gotten their balls talked about! It's important to attract the viewers you wanna get-- it's obvious Axe's profile subjects-- one of the many hella steps one's suppposed to follow according to the book-- consisted of immature young adults and males. The only ones causin' an uproar are old cougars and people all about the "old school" and people with sticks up their asses who are probably upset they're not gettin any and have had cobwebs for years. I personally think it's mad funny, but it's innapropriate and i, myself, was shocked to see it aired!

The course enables students to develop a knowledge base, skill base and overall ability in the public relations domain--basically everything you need to know, pertaining smarts while lookin' fresh to death, this is the course for you!

So if you're serious about ya comm or marketing business and really wanna learn some real shit, def come and check out COM 306. Not only is it an awesome course, they have some down ass people to teach it! Mary-Ellen Lowney is one of AIC's top of the line comm teachers and really has had some influence on people who have taken her course. The Lownster worked in journalism for a newspaper for a number of years. Her experience has really played a significant role in her teachings. Let's just be honest...the Lownster knows her shit. Not only that, but she's one of us! She's a pure partier on the weekends. Just because she's a little on the old side, she is no party pooper or going-to-bed-at-8-pm-sleepr.

BETS OFF?? NAH BETS ON, GERMANY! OH YEAH!

http://www.goldmedia.com/index.php?id=1002
Looks like Germany has been havin' a little..actually BIG..situation! Turns out, one of the biggest gambling events online is The World Cup. High end mofos in Germany are gettin sick of grenades and grundle chodes betting online, so they banned it, causin nothin' but drama! An offish treaty was passed in '08 to tone down the online bettin' and up the gambling through state-owned monopolies. I figure, it's almost like when the hippopautomus had to be seperated from the hott chicks; Not everyone's gonna be pleased with no online betting--not everyone has access to go to casinos all the time! So you gotta work with what ya got--86 the bad, and bring in the good! In this case, Germany's got all this controversy cause they're not trying to work it out. Not until this recent case study--now the treaty is about to be renewed, hopefuly correctin the law's downside-effects. My main squeeze Dr. Michael Schmid, the top dog in this whole case study, claims, the state will lose control of the gamblin market if the current prohibition on online gambling is continued. If passed, Germany will be able to continue gamblin online, and everyone will be happy again and partyin' till the break of dawn. BETS ON GERMANY, OH YEAH!!!!

POTTY -- IN ALL REGIONS?!
in response to: "Gotta pee? The Mobile Potty Finder," By David Meerman Scott.
Toilets everywhere bro? A technology that enables you to go legit any where, any time? Now after i get my GTL on and come back from my partying around 6 am, i don't have to urinate in my bushes. I can just download the toilet app in my phone, enable my satelite, and wait for the system to show me the nearest location of bathrooms. Maybe they have one for garbage cans too so Angelina can locate a garbage for her pads instead of being the little dirty hamster she is and leaving them on the bathroom floor.
