Help Save Horses

Help Horses Clear Final Hurdle

On Sept. 27 in Missouri, 17 of the 41 horses headed to a slaughter plant in Illinois were killed when the trailer they were being transported in overturned on the highway. Just three weeks earlier, on Sept. 7, the U.S. House voted 263-146 to pass the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act (H.R. 503), moving the country closer to preventing the annual slaughter of nearly 100,000 horses in the United States for human consumption abroad.


Now it's time for the Senate to act on behalf of America's horses.

Camping and Bonfire 101

Grey Gardens

Meet Big and Little Edie Beale—high-society dropouts, mother and daughter, reclusive cousins of Jackie O.—thriving together amid the decay and disorder of their ramshackle East Hampton mansion. An impossibly intimate portrait and an eerie echo of the Kennedy Camelot, Albert and David Maysles’s 1976 Grey Gardens quickly became a cult classic and established Little Edie as a fashion icon and philosopher queen.
Although they live amoung 30 cats and racoons in the attic, they seem not to notice the mansion decaying around them and eat ice cream with knives as if this was the norm. The house is over grown with trees and vegetation. The old paintings lying around and photographs show a glimpse of the beatufy and richness of a once better time. They have little money but carry themselves in a regal manner, pretending not to notice the lack of funds. Little Edie makes her clothes from random material that she finds around the home, pinning them together yet pulling off a fashionable look. She is never seen without her head covered in a shall or hankerchief.

911 Documentary

Everyone should see the movie Loose Change. This documentary will change your perspective on the events of 911 and open your eyes to the shameful deception by the US government. Not theories, evidence that you can see.

You can watch this for free on the website, but it is poor quality, or you can order it online and show it to your friends and family. I was skeptical, yet profoundly changed after seeing it.

The people who died and families who lost, the rescue workers sick today and our soldiers fighting now in war - deserve to know the truth. EVERYONE should take the time to view this film.

Little Big Man

I put in an old movie that I have become very fond of watching over and again: Little Big Man with Dustin Hoffman produced in 1970. The movie has a great message about the journey of life and the hardships of native life during the Battle at Little Big Horn with Custer. I usually cry twice watching it, even after 8 times, I still cry.


There is a medicine man in the movie named Old Lodge Skins whose holding a scalp, and he says to Little Big Man:

Do you see this fine thing? Do you admire the humanity of it? Because the human beings, my son, they believe everything is alive. Not only man and animals. But also water, earth, stone. And also the things from them... like that hair. The man from whom this hair came, he's bald on the other side, because I now own his scalp! That is the way things are. But the white man, they believe EVERYTHING is dead. Stone, earth, animals. And people! Even their own people! If things keep trying to live, white man will rub them out. That is the difference.
There is an endless supply of white men. There has always been a limited number of human beings.

Canada's seal hunt is the largest deliberate slaughter of marine mammals in the world. But the killing of baby seals doesn't make sense economically or ecologically, nor is it sustainable. It's simply a tragic slaughter of defenseless animals that benefits a small minority of boat captains armed with big ships, snowmobiles and even personal helicopters. This isn't about small town survival or tradition, it's an industrial killing machine for profit.
