I thought California was supposed to be home to the happy cows?

Employees at the now-closed Southern California slaughterhouse where inhumane treatment of cows was captured on a gruesome undercover video committed “egregious violations” of federal animal care regulations, the U.S. Agriculture Department has determined.

Thanks for clearing it up…

From the Sentinel Review in Ontario, Canada:

In an article in Monday’s newspaper, there may have been a misperception about why a Woodstock man is going to Afghanistan on a voluntary mission. Kevin DeClark is going to Afghanistan to gain life experience to become a police officer when he returns, not to shoot guns and blow things up.

The Sentinel-Review apologizes for any embarrassment this may have caused.

Random Things Going Through My Mind…

  • Why are we still calling Pakistan a key Ally? It just doesn’t seem right based on current details coming out of Pakistan.
  • Will I ever start working on CSPCorner.org? I’ve been wanting to start a resource for CSP Collectors that has the potential to be just as good as The Internet Guide or OA Insignia. I think I’m hoping someone beats me to it, unfortunately I believe all of the sites that started showing potential have since been abandoned.
  • I passed the State Social Work exam for my Certification on Friday, now I have to study for and pass the National exam. I’m nervous.
  • Should I get a personal trainer to help motivate my change in lifestyle? I keep telling myself I need to get in better shape and I keep having the military tell me I need to get in better shape, but I procrastinate. Maybe I’ll see where I am in December.
  • I wanted to buy a couch this weekend, but I refuse to shop during a Veteran’s Day Sale.

This is awesome…

“I realized, oh my gosh, I’m sitting here, I’m a fat 50-year-old mom and I’ve managed to scoop al-Qaida,” said Mansfield, who uses that name as a pseudonym because she receives death threats.

Read the whole story.

My favorite quote form the story:

“It gets really challenging when you’re trying to do that and cook spaghetti at the same time,” she said.
