Victoria Beckham‘s Style – Love it or Hate it?

Photo from fOTOGLIF Victoria Beckham really knows how to bring herself, and look absolutely stunning among the crowd. From an ex-Spice girl star, to a wife, a mother and now a fashion designer, I definitely like this fine lady. We may have different opinions about how she dresses up but for me, she definitely inspires! Every style that she brings, whether old or new, is followed and admired

 Pamela’s Breathtaking Moves

Barely stopping to catch her breath after a sizzling Argentine tango on Dancing With The Stars ( DWTS ), Pamela Anderson—accompanied by her dance partner, Damian Whitewood—headed to the Canadian Consulate in Los Angeles today to hand-deliver her letter to Gary Doer , the Canadian ambassador to the U.S., detailing her concern that the Canadian government is subsidizing the seal slaughter . Pamela has taken her fight for seals from one end of Canada to the other , but her personal appearance at the consulate is her first action in the U.S.

 Spilling It re Oil and Meat, ‘Plane’ and Simple

Officials are scrambling to contain the beyond-massive oil spill that’s headed for the Gulf Coast and its wetlands and wildlife areas. At times like this, I know it’s popular to blame big business, and that’s fair enough.

 PETA’s Dog Park Gets Two Paws Up

PETA’s Bea Arthur Dog Park (named for the eternally fabulous Golden Girl ) has everything that dogs love: a big, grassy lawn for rolling and romping, a bin filled with toys to chew and chase, a water station, and an easy-access ramp into the Elizabeth River for dog-paddling to their hearts’ content! But it’s not just dogs who love PETA’s park—apparently, Southern Living does too: The magazine included the park in its feature on the South’s best dog parks ! Let’s raise the woof in celebration by taking our canine companions to the nearest dog park tonight for some tail-wagging fun! And if you’re ever in Norfolk, Virginia, check out the Bea Arthur Dog Park: I guarantee that if you follow the rules, you and your mutt won’t be disappointed. Posted by Lindsay Pollard-Post

 No Justice for Cows in Pennsylvania

Despite overwhelmingly sad video and photographic evidence of lame, thin, and downed cows left to suffer and die and a cow whose teat was banded and left to decay and fall off—not to mention expert testimony that all this constituted cruelty—a judge whose courtroom was packed with dairy farmers today dismissed all charges against the owners of Reitz Dairy , a filthy Land O’Lakes supplier in Pennsylvania that PETA investigated last year. Conditions like these were defended as “standard dairy practice”! Share on Facebook | Viewing Options Embed PETA’s investigator found cows on this factory dairy farm collapsed, lame, and struggling to hobble through a deep soup of feces and urine in the perpetually filthy conditions. Cows suffering from painful infections and severe lameness were deprived of even basic care; dying cows were not even put out of their misery

 The Human Side of Slaughterhouse Abuse

The findings of a new report from Britain’s Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) should come as no surprise to anyone with an ounce of sense: Abuse and exploitation run rampant in meat factories , no matter the victim’s species. http://www.flickr.com/photos/southernfoodwaysalliance/ / CC BY 2.0 One in three workers interviewed by the EHRC claimed to have heard or been the victim of verbal abuse by superiors, and one in five admitted to “being pushed, kicked, or having things thrown at them.” The report contains testimony from employees who claimed to have had frozen burgers thrown at them by managers and states that workers with bladder conditions admitted to urinating on themselves after they were denied bathroom breaks. It doesn’t take a great leap of logic to understand that the callousness required to hang gentle animals by chains and shackles , cut their throats while they are still conscious, and begin to skin them while they are still blinking will bleed into employee relations, and it’s no coincidence that the hardships endured by humans are eerily similar to those endured by animals.

 Monkey See, Monkey Bite

http://www.flickr.com/photos/34022876@N06/ CC BY 2.0 As if we needed another reminder that wild animals are not wind-up toys , a capuchin monkey reportedly being kept as a “service animal” by a man in Chesapeake, Virginia, bit the man so severely that he had to be hospitalized. A video that aired on a local news broadcast showed the monkey’s cage and the floor surrounding it sprayed with the man’s blood

 Diving With Dolphins May Destroy Them

http://www.flickr.com/photos/jdebberly/ / CC BY 2.0 Really-old-but-still-totally-relevant history lesson (it’s quick—I promise!): The Ancient Greeks were so awed by dolphins , whom they deemed friends to humans, that every time they spotted one swimming behind a ship, they considered him or her a good omen. Now, a new study suggests that in order to respect our marine friends and cognitive cousins , we must simply stay away from them. Findings from researchers at Newcastle University suggest that human interactions with dolphins—from following them in tourist boats to swimming with them to touching them—are harmful to these intelligent, sensitive mammals.

 Get Roped Into These Knitted Necklaces From Orly Genger and Jaclyn Mayer!

What happens when a jewelry designer and a sculptor collaborate? Well, it could create some monstrous and heavy jewelry, or it could create beautiful statement pieces you€™ll cherish forever. For this duo it€™s definitely the latter! Jaclyn Mayer and Orly Genger first paired up to create some jewelry souvenirs for the gift shop of the Indianapolis Museum of Art , where the New York-based Genger was showing an installation consisting of thousands of feet of nylon climbing rope, which the artist had hand-knitted into sculptures.
