2008-06-03 06:03:00 By LARRY MITCHELL - Staff WriterKay Roberts lost her home, some of her money and much of her freedom when she was put in a conservatorship under supervision of the Butte County Public Guardian's Office last year.The "unkindest cut of all," Kay feels, came when the county limited the ability of her son, Bill, to visit her or even talk to her on the phone.For a number of weeks last summer, Kay, who is 84, remained as a (prisioner)private-pay patient at Riverside Convalescent Hospital, where she was taken after treatment at Enloe Medical Center following a fall. It was a frustrating, uncomfortable time for her and her family and friends.Bill Roberts said his mother was unhappy and cried and cried. She feared she'd never leave the place and was convinced the county would end up taking all her money. "I've never seen a human being so distraught," he said. "She deteriorated so much. She just gave up."Judge Darrell Stevens had called a hearing for Sept. 18 to consider whether the public...

Animal Cruelty: The Key to Serial Minds
2008-05-08 14:59:00 What makes a common person a Serial Killer? According to research, serial killers exhibit what is known as the 'Triad of Warning Signs in Childhood.'1Indicators include:* Firestarting, invariably just for the thrill of destroying things* Cruelty to Animals: Most children can be cruel to animals, such as pulling the legs off of spiders, but future serial killers often kill larger animals, like dogs and cats, and frequently for their solitary enjoyment rather than to impress peers.* Bedwetting beyond the age when children normally grow out of such behavior.One of society's more notorious serial killers, Jeffrey Dahmer explained that wanted to remove 'free will' from his victims so that they would stay with him. In his past, he suffered from abandonment and was afraid of loss and any social upheaval. Another one of his extremely displaced characteristics was that he suffered from low self-esteem. His parents divorced during his teens, and when he did go to college, he performed ba...

Florida Cheerleader Beating Shows Teenage Cruelty To World
2008-04-11 16:45:00 This video is all over the place and on YouTube and various other online video distribution sites. These Lakeland Florida cheerleaders were upset with a girl that wrote "bad things" about them on MySpace page and on text messages, and then set up a plot to entrap and then eventually beat a 16-year old girl. Here's the video:That video also shows Ms. Garcia, who's the mother of one of the girls responsible for the event. I feel sorry for the mother as I don't think she knows the gravity of what's happened and is trying to protect her daughter against a angry society. But the fact is that teenage girls like this have been around us for years. What's happened is that we have sent messages to them that violence and "beat-downs" are just fine, and oh, let's show it all on YouTube. The kids are teenagers who don't know better and should not be tried as adults in my view. But I think some kind of message should be sent and we also need to take a hard look at how society is r...

Animal Cruelty on Lobster
2008-02-28 09:01:00 We went to The Prime Cuts last night with another couple, and the restaurant specialties are steak and lobster. Nearby the maître d' stand there was a big tank parading huge, healthy lobsters (thank God they did not show live cows too). I asked one of the staffs when we were collecting our coats back, if the lobster are for a show or they actually use (cook) them. She said that they do use the lobster in the tank if someone orders it. But the patrons are not allowed to pick the lobster by themselves.Why?Because it's considered as an animal cruelty.So you can order the lobster, but you can't point one of the inhabitants in the tank and tell the chef that you specifically want that lobster on the left corner because it looks fresher and bigger than the others!This triggered my curiosity so I went for a research and found that scientific evidence showing lobsters feel extreme levels of pain when cooked to death, and there has been big debates about the most humane way to kill them. ...

Beef Recall and Slaughterhouse Cruelty Video, Cattle and Cows Get the Worst
2008-02-19 12:09:00 In the new about the beef recall along with that a slaughterhouse cruelty video going around on the news. It is disturbing and sad on how cattle are slaughtered. I think out all the animals that go through the process of becoming our food supply they get the worst treatment. Because some people don?t get as upset about slaughter treatment to cow as they do for a horse for example. Some think cows as dumb animals so then they think they have the right to treat them unkindly. But they are not dumb at all they feel emotions just like other animals they deserved to be treated with value. Glad this video has surfaced I have been aware of treatment of cattle in slaughterhouse for many years. It so awful and inhumane with what they have to go through. Something needs to change with this process if it was not for the cow we would not have food along with they provide us so much more. They deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. I know this is not an easy process nothing good comes ...
Natalie Portman?s Shoes Are Cruelty-Free
2008-02-13 19:59:00 Natalie Portman has a new shoe line, and it's vegan! I want soy pumps! And a tofu handbag! Natalie herself says that she's not quite a vegan as of yet. I've often seen her down at the D'Angelos chomping on a steak'n'cheese. This is unusual because the shoe website sorta claims she is: ""As a vegan, it's been challenging finding designer shoes made of alternative materials. This collection offers a great selection without compromising quality or style." Which is it? Are you eating flesh or not? Natalie's veggie shoes are available at Te Ceasan in NYC. 5% of the profits from the shoes go to charity, and the rest go to that new fur coat she wanted.

NEW YORK TOPS ANIMAL CRUELTY LIST

Budkie, A.H.T., Executive Director of SAEN. "Experiments which subject animals to extreme confinement, electric shocks or severe hunger and thirst are often not counted as causing pain or distress."Based on USDA information for unrelieved pain in experimental animals, here is the ranking and the number of animals who were caused pain in labs:1.
