Comments Off on Tommy Lee Asks SeaWorld To Release Its Sex Tapes
Tommy Lee and SeaWorld have been at words in the media during the past week in a controversy over the marine park using the whale that killed a trainer last year to collect semen. Doing so puts other trainers at risk, as they have contact with the animal that was supposed to never have interaction with humans after a string of several incidents.
After Lee accused SeaWorld of using an “artificial vagina” to masturbate Tilly, the park fired back saying no such apparatus existed. Now, Lee argues he has proof and in a new letter to the organization, refers them to such a video on YouTube, along with statements made by a former worker. He also invites SeaWorld to allow him and PETA to tape the current methods for obtaining semen, if the old ones are no longer in use.
“Former SeaWorld scientist John Hall says in this article, “Early in the morning, the animal-care crew would take hot-water-filled cow vaginas and masturbate the males in the back tanks.” In this YouTube video, SeaWorld trainers demonstrate semen collection by standing in shallow water next to an orca and grabbing his penis until he ejaculates into a plastic bag.”

Comments Off on Ron Artest–The 80% Pork Chop Vegan
ESPN’s Rick Reilly had the pleasure of spending a day with Ron Artest. During the 16 hours of being studied, Artest obviously got a little hungry and revealed to Reilly he eats an 80% vegan diet.
“11:42 a.m. — Ron Ron is carrying a large bag of food for his lunch — all vegan. But Ron Ron is not entirely vegan. “About 80 percent,” he says. “I like pork chops.””

Comments Off on Joanna Lumley Wants Horse-Drawn Carriages Banned In New York (Video)
Former Bond girl Joanna Lumley is on a top mission to get horse-drawn carriages off the streets in New York city, something that has already been done in other cities in the state, as well as in other cities outside the United States like London, Paris and Toronto.
“People have an old romantic notion about it. I would just say, ‘Please think again – think of the freezing and boiling weather they are forced to work in, and think of the cramped city stables where the horses are kept,” Lumley said.
“I wish they would just allow the horses to remain in Central Park, but I understand that’s hard to achieve with the city. I love the bill aimed at replacing the horse-drawn carriages with Great Gatsby-era cars. That is glamorous.”
A video showing the traffic conditions the horses often travel through is enough to make anyone want the protection of an actual vehicle versus a carriage, as the horses share the roads with dozens of taxis, personal vehicles and emergency vehicles.

Comments Off on Nellie McKay Explains How “Unknown Reggae” Makes Animal Rights Easy On The Ears
Nellie McKay incorporated some animal rights/veg lyrics in the song “Unknown Reggae” from her latest album released this past fall, Home Sweet Mobile Home.
With its upbeat tempo, Unknown Reggae may not seem like a song about serious activism, but listen carefully and you’ll hear McKay singing about a hamburger being someone’s mother. Could this happy tune be a way to easily introduce music enthusiasts to the idea of veganism without giving them a lecture?
Nellie tells Philly.com:
“I understand how the flesh is weak, and food is one of the only things you can count on at the end of the day. Animal rights, even more than human, is hard to make palatable because the truth is so horrible. But this song is fun to sing, and the band sounds great on it. I’d love for people to listen to it and change their diet, go animal-free. But you don’t have to be a healthy vegan. There’s still a lot of junk food to enjoy. Nobody who comes to my house can believe all the oil, the fake butter, the bags of potato chips laying around.”
Listen to McKay’s Unknown Reggae, which begins around minute 4:30 in the video below.

Comments Off on Mercedes-Benz Loans Green To Green Businesses
The Conservation’s ShadeFund is a new program designed to raise capital for small loans to green businesses.
Mercedes-Benz has graciously taken the step to be the first business to pledge to lend between 10-12 loans to green companies in the next 1-2 years, the first two being an organic farm that sells herbs and vegetables and a company that gathers wood from downed trees and turns it into furniture. Loan sizes will range from $5,000-$25,000, depending on the project.
