More Video of Abused Calves at Vermont Slaughter Plant
Shocking Images Highlight Urgent Need for Policy Reforms
The Humane Society of the United States released more details of an undercover investigation into unacceptable and callous animal cruelty at a Vermont slaughter plant, including footage of a U.S. Department of Agriculture inspector apparently failing to enforce federal humane treatment laws, and the plant co-owner participating in the abuse with gusto.
WARNING: Very graphic images
Release of the new video footage followed a preliminary release of the investigation on Friday after state and federal officials shut down the operations of Bushway Packing, Inc. in Grand Isle, Vt., and launched a thorough investigation into the abuse. The facility slaughters days-old male dairy calves—many so young that their umbilical cords still hang from their bodies—for so-called "bob veal."
In one scene, a worker attempts to skin a calf who is still alive, directly in front of a USDA inspector. This government official tells the worker, on hidden camera, that if another USDA inspector saw this, the plant would be shut down, but he allows the abuse to continue. In another scene, the slaughter plant's co-owner, who has claimed in press reports that he had no knowledge of cruel treatment at his facility, is shown shocking downed calves with electric prods in futile attempts to force them to stand. Prodding one calf to stand up, he says to the animal, "There ain't nothing wrong with you, sh*t box." At one point he jokes that one of the staggering calves "looks like you on a Friday night," referring to the USDA inspector, who laughs at the co-owner's joke.
"The abuse of these infant calves is merciless," said Michael Markarian, HSUS chief operating officer. "There is no excuse for skinning animals alive and shocking them time after time with electric prods when it's obvious they are too weak to stand. We need stronger policies and better enforcement to prevent the inhumane treatment of these animals."
Reforms Urgently Needed
The HSUS called for a series of policy reforms to prevent such abuse. These reforms include:
1. Close the loophole in the federal regulation that allows downer calves to be slaughtered for food. Earlier this year, President Obama and the USDA banned the slaughter of all adult downer cattle, requiring that they be humanely euthanized rather than dragged to slaughter. The HSUS applauded that move. However, the regulations still allow downer calves to be slaughtered in certain circumstances, leading to the type of cruelty The HSUS uncovered at Bushway.
2. Require that calves under 10 days of age not be considered fit for transport. The European Union already has a similar regulation, but in the United States, calves only hours or days old can be transported for up to 28 hours without food, water or even enough space to lie down. As a result, many newborn calves are transported to plants like Bushway, where those who survive the trip arrive weak, malnourished and often unable to stand.
3. Overhaul the federal inspection system for humane handling, with changes to include improving inspector training, requiring more continuous observation of live animal handling, and creating an agency ombudsman position to take complaints and tips from whistleblowers.
The HSUS today filed a rulemaking petition with the USDA to close the regulatory loophole regarding downer calves.
The Evidence
The HSUS investigator worked as a floor cleaner at the plant from late August through the end of September and gathered hidden-camera evidence showing:
- Live animals placed in piles with dead animals. The USDA inspector present told the HSUS investigator on video not to tell him if a live calf was in the pile of dead animals because, "I'm not supposed to know. I could shut them down for that."
- The frequent use of electric prods and kicking animals in an attempt to force the newborn calves to stand. Some calves are shocked more than 30 times, and in at least one case, water was splashed on one calf to accentuate the effect of the electric shocking.
- Slaughter plant workers performing improper stunning methods to knock the animals unconscious, including stunning calves en masse in a crowded room as opposed to individually restraining them to make the stunning more accurate. Federal law requires that animals be rendered insensible to pain before being bled out and dismembered.
After reviewing the undercover footage obtained by the HSUS investigator, animal scientists Temple Grandin, Ph.D, and Kurt Vogel pronounced that, "the handling practices and attention to insensibility at this plant are unacceptable and must improve."
The investigation comes nearly two years after The HSUS' investigation of a California dairy cow slaughter plant documented routine abuse of animals slaughtered to supply the nation's school lunch program and led to the largest meat recall in U.S. history.
The HSUS filed a complaint with the USDA and Vermont Agency of Agriculture last week, citing possible violations of the federal Humane Methods of Slaughter Act and Vermont's anti-cruelty statute. The HSUS commends U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Vermont Agriculture Secretary Roger Allbee for suspending operations at the plant and launching a thorough investigation in response to these allegations.
- When dairy cows give birth to male calves, the calves are often sold to veal factory farmswhere they are unable to turn around or stretch their limbs, or instead they are slaughtered for "bob veal" within about a week of being born.
- About 700,000 veal calves are slaughtered in the United States annually, approximately 15 percent of whom are bob veal calves under the age of three weeks.
- Arizona, California, Colorado, Maine and Michigan have passed laws phasing out the extreme confinement of calves in veal crates but still allow transport and slaughter of calves at any age.
The agriculture industry trade publication Feedstuffs editorialized in September about a series of investigations conducted by animal organizations: "It's important to understand that companies and producers can't just say 'bad apple' and move on because—to consumers who have seen these videos again and again—there are no bad apples anymore. The bad apple, to consumers now, is the industry." Feedstuffs also opined that, "It [egregious mistreatment of animals] has to stop....There is no excuse because what's really being violated, breaking down and failing is not policy but ethics and morality, and no number of after-the-fact investigations and statements will make up for that."
What You Can Do
Ask USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack to act immediately to prevent this cruelty from happening at other slaughter plants.

Canis lupus
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Canis lupus Linnaeus, 1758
|Infra-specific Taxa Assessed:
|Regional Assessments:
Common Name(s):
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Least Concern ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Mech, L.D. & Boitani, L. (IUCN SSC Wolf Specialist Group)
|Sillero-Zubiri, C. & Hoffmann, M.
Originally, the Grey Wolf was the world's most widely distributed mammal. It has become extinct in much of Western Europe, in Mexico and much of the USA, and their present distribution is more restricted; wolves occur primarily but not exclusively in wilderness and remote areas. Their original worldwide range has been reduced by about one-third by deliberate persecution due to depredation on livestock and fear of attacks on humans. Since about 1970, legal protection, land-use changes and rural human population shifts to cities have arrested wolf population declines and fostered natural recolonization in parts of its range and reintroduction in three areas of USA. Continued threats include competition with humans for livestock and game species, exaggerated concern by the public regarding the threat and danger of wolves, and fragmentation of habitat, with resulting areas becoming too small for populations with long-term viability.
Although the Grey Wolf still faces some threats, its relatively widespread range and stable population trend mean that the species, at global level, does not meet, or nearly meet, any of the criteria for the threatened categories. Therefore, it is assessed as Least Concern (LC). However, at regional level, several wolf populations are seriously threatened. In North America, some of the reintroduced populations are still threatened; and in Europe, http://www.iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/3746/1, http://www.iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/3746/3, the species is classified as LC globally but several regional populations, such as the Western-Central Alps population, are classified as Endangered (http://www.lcie.org/).
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|Originally, the Grey Wolf was the world's most widely distributed mammal, living throughout the northern hemisphere north of 15°N latitude in North America and 12°N in India. It has become extinct in much of Western Europe (Boitani 1995), in Mexico and much of the USA (Mech 1970). Their present distribution is more restricted: wolves occur primarily in wilderness and remote areas, especially in Canada, Alaska and northern USA, Europe, and Asia from about 75°N to 12°N.
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Afghanistan; Albania; Armenia; Azerbaijan; Belarus; Bhutan; Bosnia and Herzegovina; Bulgaria; Canada; China; Croatia; Czech Republic; Estonia; Finland; France; Georgia; Germany; Greece; Greenland; Hungary; India; Iran, Islamic Republic of; Iraq; Israel; Italy; Jordan; Kazakhstan; Korea, Democratic People's Republic of; Korea, Republic of; Kyrgyzstan; Latvia; Libya; Lithuania; Macedonia, the former Yugoslav Republic of; Mexico; Moldova; Mongolia; Montenegro; Myanmar; Nepal; Norway; Oman; Pakistan; Poland; Portugal; Romania; Russian Federation; Saudi Arabia; Serbia; Slovakia; Slovenia; Spain; Sweden; Syrian Arab Republic; Tajikistan; Turkey; Turkmenistan; Ukraine; United Arab Emirates; United States; Uzbekistan; Yemen
Possibly extinct:Bangladesh
Regionally extinct:Austria; Belgium; Denmark; Ireland; Japan; Luxembourg; Netherlands; Switzerland; United Kingdom
|Additional data:
|Range Map:
|Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
|Because of the diversity in climate, topography, vegetation, human settlement and development of wolf range, wolf populations in various parts of the original range vary from extinct to relatively pristine. Wolf densities vary from about one/12 km² to one/120 km².
Sillero et al. (2004) provide details, for each range country, on subspecies present, population status, approximate numbers, the percentage of former range occupied at present, main prey (where known), legal status, and cause of decline.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Ranges in all northern habitats where there is suitable food (Mech 1970), densities being highest where prey biomass is highest (Fuller 1989). Food is extremely variable, but the majority comprises large ungulates (moose, caribou, deer, elk, wild boar, etc.). Wolves will also eat smaller prey items, livestock, carrion, and garbage.
|Major Threat(s):
|Their original worldwide range has been reduced by about one-third, primarily in developed areas of Europe, Asia, Mexico, and the United States by poisoning and deliberate persecution due to depredation on livestock. Since about 1970, legal protection, land-use changes, and rural human population shifts to cities have arrested wolf population declines and fostered natural recolonization in parts of Western Europe and the United States, and reintroduction in the western United States. Continued threats include competition with humans for livestock, especially in developing countries, exaggerated concern by the public concerning the threat and danger of wolves, and fragmentation of habitat, with resulting areas becoming too small for populations with long-term viability. There is sustainable utilization of the species' fur in Canada, Alaska, and the former Soviet Union and Mongolia.
|Conservation Actions:
The species is included in CITES Appendix II, except populations from Bhutan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, which are listed on Appendix I. There is extensive legal protection in many European countries; however, enforcement is variable and often non-existent.
The species now receives legal protection in Afghanistan, having been listed by the Afghan Government on the country's 2009 Protected Species List. This prohibits all hunting and trade of C. lupus within Afghanistan.
It occurs in many protected areas across its range.
Occurrence in captivity:
The species lives and breeds well in captivity and is common in many zoological gardens.
Gaps in knowledge:
One of the most important questions still remaining about wolves involves the nature of their interaction with prey populations. The conditions under which wolves limit, regulate, or control their population is still open and important (Mech and Boitani 2003). Of more academic interest are questions involving wolf genetics, scent-marking behaviour, pseudo pregnancy and diseases (Mech 1995).

Deadlines to buy Chicago vehicle stickers could be staggered throughout the year instead of coming on June 30 for every car, minivan, SUV and truck in the city, City Clerk Susana Mendoza said Wednesday.
The first-term clerk is beginning to draw up the year-round sticker-purchase plan, she told aldermen at a City Council hearing on Mayor Rahm Emanuel's budget proposal for next year.
"We would look to implement this for next year, so we are an aggressive timeline," Mendoza said. "We're spending a lot of time right now in the clerk's office focusing on how we make this happen."
The program would be modeled on the Illinois secretary of state's vehicle license renewal system, Mendoza said after the hearing. Details are still being worked out.
Staggered deadlines will be easier financially for families with more than one vehicle, which could increase compliance and boost overall sticker fee purchases, she said. And not having clerk's office workers deal with a once-a-year deadline could further reduce overtime she said she already cut this year by expanding the time window during which stickers can be purchased.
"If we can make people's lives easier, we can reduce the lines at City Hall, we can cut down our overtime costs and we can still bring in the same revenues if not more . . . then everybody wins," Mendoza said. "This is long overdue."
Mendoza already has taken other steps to make purchases more convenient. Those include extending to 10 weeks from six the purchase window and expanding will-call sales to online purchases.
So far this year, the city has sold more than 1.2 million stickers — already hitting a number that is nearly 28,000 more than all of last year, according to the clerk's office.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and aldermen last year raised the price of the standard $75 vehicle sticker by $10. Those who pay $120 for stickers saw a $15 increase. Given that, overall sticker revenue so far is up about 14 percent to more than $110 million, according to the clerk's office.

We are asking you to make a "SAFE AND HUMANE COMMUNITY ACT" one of your legislative priorities for the
state of Maryland. This legislation will protect people and pets,
prevent reckless dog owners from owning pets, enforce personal responsibility, prevent
convicted felons from owning an unsterilized dog and judge dogs and owners by their
behavior not appearance.
In addition, it would protect property rights and ensure no citizen's
property (dog) would be seized based solely on the alleged breed or
appearance. ( i.e. Pit
Bull Terriers. )This legislation would also contain a preemption clause
that has passed in 16 states and prohibit any breed discriminatory or
"specific" BSL laws. We believe that the
state of Maryland should be the first to enact a comprehensive safe and
humane community act.
This petition closed over 3 years ago

Five years ago an Angel came into my life in the form of a Pit Bull Terrier from the South Central Los Angeles Shelter. Her ears cut with razor blades, battery acid burns all over her back, broken tail, part of her tongue missing, had been bred several times and used as a bait dog but still had a smile on her face and nothing but love to give. Angel has educated and enlightened people around the country by simply being an example of what this breed truly is, magical. For 20 years I thought entertaining people was enough until Angel came into my life and showed me that standing up for pits through entertainment is what I'm meant to do and has given my life a greater sense of purpose.
To ban a race, religion or breed is immoral, prejudice and ignorant. There is a national war against Pit Bull Terriers going on and the time is now to stop it. Fact-there is no such thing as a vicious breed of dog. The way a dog looks also does not determine it's actions. So, to deem an entire breed "dangerous" or "vicious" and make it law to remove this breed from loving homes or prevent them a chance at life is ludacris.
The way we treat our animals is a direct reflection of our society and what humans are doing to Pit Bull Terriers is proof that ours is broken. Prince George County Maryland finds logic in banning Pit Bull Terriers and continues to turn a blind eye towards the people abusing, torturing, fighting and mutilating them. It is OBVIOUS that what should be feared and what is in fact "vicious" are the humans doing this daily in our own backyards. Breed-specific legislation (BSL) laws continue to fail time and time again, costing tax payers more money trying to enforce this ridiculousness.
I'm not asking anyone to own a Pit Bull Terrier or even suggesting that people who don't like dogs change their minds and like them. It's a responsible persons right to own or not own whatever kind of dog they choose. What I am asking is that you understand that there is a national war against Pit Bull Terriers and humans are committing heinous acts against them now more than every before and that is ALL OF OUR problem as a society. Our FBI and government have spent millions on studied that prove that the people committing these acts against dogs/animals will likely and most often times do go on to commit crimes against humans and are involved in other illegal activities. It is VITAL that you join me in signing this petition to stop BSL laws, and challenge our law makers to stop banning the voiceless victims of abuse and BSL as a way solve a social problem but instead educate themselves, understand this epidemic and create/support intelligent solutions that will save animals and humans alike. Please sign now and share! #wewillmarch

Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree with a major in management.
Professional managers are a distinct and essential group in modern society who are responsible for maintaining and improving organizational effectiveness. The management major prepares students for the challenging task of directing people and activities in today's private, public and not-for-profit organizations. Those who study this field at Drake are grounded in the theories, concepts, practices and ethical concerns of contemporary management and emerging trends. Management students learn how organizations are designed and administrated, how people behave as members of an organization, and how employees are compensated, motivated and protected. They learn how organizations measure and improve performance and how they make strategic advances in a competitive marketplace. They study leadership and assess and develop their personal leading skills. In addition, they are exposed to the issues and challenges of managing organizations in a global economy.
Many students choose management as a second major in which case they often begin their career in a position related to their first major, but with accelerated opportunities for advancement. Those whose primary focus is management may attain positions in human resource departments, operations, customer service, purchasing and sales; they work as franchise managers, management consultants, department managers; and they work in diverse industries from financial services to manufacturing to retail.
Twenty-four credits within the college and 3 credits outside the college.
To complete their program of study, management majors must select two courses (6 credits) beyond the management core from other disciplines in the College of Business and Public Administration. The two courses must be in the same field. In exceptional cases, fields outside the college may be selected (2 courses or six credits from the same field) as approved by the department. The area of special interest should reinforce professional development and career objectives of the student.

UPDATE (Saturday, February 23)-- A pornography company is offering to help a Muskegon man whose pricey porn collection was stolen.
Earlie Johnson came home earlier this week to find his vintage porn collection missing, along with two flat-screen television sets.
Johnson says he collects rare performances by African American actresses, making the $7,500 collection irreplaceable. But a porn distributor is willing to try.
According to the Huffington Post, the owner of Monarchy Distribution heard Johnson's story and offered to give him one copy of every title in his collection.
Johnson says he's thankful for the offer, but it's unclear if he'll take it.
MUSKEGON, Mich. (WZZM) -- A lakeshore man says it's taken him years, and thousands of dollars to assemble the collection of vintage pornography stolen from his house.
Earlie Johnson says he arrived home Tuesday afternoon to find his back door was kicked in. Three flat-screen TVs were taken, along with his stockpile of DVDs.
"We parked in the back and noticed our door was ajar. The house had been broken into," said Johnson. "Our drawers had been ransacked."
Angela Morton, Johnson's fiancé says she first realized the adult film collection was missing. "I went in the bedroom and I told him 'oh you really getting ready to be mad.' He said why? I said 'all your porn is gone,'" said Morton.
"I had a sinking felling because my porn collection is valuable, man," Johnson told WZZM 13.
Johnson collects rare performances by black adult film stars that were difficult for him to find and impossible to replace. He says the stolen pornography collection is worth $7,500, much more than the televisions that were taken.
"I had a collection that had every African American that's ever been in porn, from the 70s up until now," explained Johnson.
"My collection was the best in Michigan-- a guy in Connecticut told me that," said Johnson. He believes the thieves realized the value when they stumbled on the porn.
"They came upon it and looked at the titles and realized what they had ran across... and realized people will pay cash money for them DVDs."
Johnson says his rare footage can't be found on the internet.
"I trade and I collect and I look at them too. I ain't got no problem with that," said Johnson.
Morton defends her fiancé's collection. "They probably think we are freaks or something... no, it's something natural and it's healthy," she told WZZM 13.
"I'm not no scum bag guy, pervert, or nothing like that-- I just thought it was cool to own my own porn collection," said Johnson. "It keeps my relationship fresh and tight, and I learn stuff that I can use on her."
Johnson says he plans to start rebuilding his vintage pornography collection. He didn't report the crime because he says he just doesn't call the police. But Morton says she reported the crime because that's what you do when someone breaks into your home and violates your space.
Police say they don't have any suspects.

Severin Exploitation Bonanza! (US - DVD)
Gabe delights in the exploits of Bloody Birthday, Nightmares and The Baby...
Bloody Birthday
When Bloody Birthday arrived in my mailbox (along with the other three films I'm covering here), I thought to myself, 'Great, here's one of a few generally liked North American, '80s era slashers I hadn't slipped under my belt just yet'. I had not really read a lot pertaining to the plot of the film, apparently, because it's totally not a slasher. Granted the film starts like another by the numbers post- Halloween stalk and slash, featuring strikingly similar characters and setting (though this time it's actually meant to take place in California). But quickly enough (about 15 or 20 minutes) things take an abrupt turn into the similar, but different 'evil kids' subgenre, which is more interesting. In the end Bloody Birthday isn't a slasher movie at all beyond the adult character traits, setting, and fact that sex equals death (the little monsters actually rack up a body count Jason Voorhees would envy, however). The slasher elements do create comparisons within the evil kid subgenre. If Who Can Kill a Child is the subgenre's equivalent to The Birds, and The Devil Times Five is the subgenre's equivalent to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, then Bloody Birthday is certainly the subgenre's equivalent to Friday the 13th. It's not as slimy, gritty or generally perverse as Devil Times Five, or as genuinely dramatic and horrifying as Who Can Kill a Child, but Bloody Birthday is a fun, politically incorrect little romp, and sets itself slightly apart from the pack by featuring another minor as a major protagonist (more often than not these things are aimed squarely at freaking out the adults in the audience by presenting the evil kids as 'the other'). Some scenes feature real kinetic momentum, and director Ed Hunt has a good feel for shooting action on a miniscule budget (the junk yard car chase is quite good). Hunt also crafts a few clever suspense set-pieces (the climax verges on brilliant), but doesn't really mange to raise any hackles. This films certainly has its heart in the right place, is occasionally funny (usually on purpose), features surprisingly strong performances, and an extended nude dance from Downtown Julie Brown.
Severin has done a decent job remastering this particular gem, though I'm not familiar with past releases and am unable to compare it to anything outside of basic expectations. The print is generally well scrubbed, featuring a few minor scuffs and scratches, and a fine grain mesh, but no major damage. Detail levels are actually pretty close to what I'd expect from a Blu-ray version of similar material, just lacking that extra bump of 1080p sharpness that would likely show in the form of cleaner edges in the backgrounds and finer grain size. Colours are decent, though inconsistent. The darkest scenes are definitely a problem, specifically the opening killing, which boils down to a series of light blue shapes moving throughout utter blackness. One real complaint though – on my set the film itself didn't display at the appropriate 1.66:1, but 1.78:1, while the footage in the special features was set to the correct aspect ratio. Weird. The musical score is amusing in that it's actually well produced and well written, yet so derivative John Williams and Bernard Herrmann's estate probably should've received royalty checks. The two channel mono Dolby Digital sound is pretty weak and muffled overall. It's often quite difficult to discern the dialogue, and sounds like the performances are being spoken through cheese cloth. The score comes off a bit better, but is also muffled, and bass heavy in all the wrong places. Extras include 'Don't Eat That Cake: An Interview with Lori Lethin' (9:50), 'A Brief History of Slasher Films' (15:10), which is very similar to an extra on Lionsgate's My Bloody Valentine release (and which proves how much Bloody Birthday isn't actually a slasher), an audio interview with Director Ed Hunt (an ear-numbing 51:10, could've worked better as a commentary), and trailers.
While driving the road into Sleazeville one might find oneself overwhelmed by the utter bleakness of Bill Lustig's Maniac and Lucio Fulci's New York Ripper. These curious, but sensitive types might want to visit the more 'fun' side of town, where Juan Piquer Simón's Pieces is shown on loop next door to John Lamond's Aussie-flavoured blood bath Nightmares. Also known as Stage Fright, not to be confused with Michele Soavi's similar and better Stage Fright (itself aka: Aquarius), or Romano Scavolini's center of Sleazeville grotesquery Nightmare (aka: Nightmares in a Damaged Brain), Nightmares is among the more sexually explicit and generally naughty stalk and kill movies ever made, due in part to Lamond's softcore smut pedigree. This tale of a genophobic actress and her misadventures while starring in a local play has a reputation for graphic gore as well, but the real messy stuff is mostly left to our imaginations in the form of blood smears on nekkid flesh. It's certainly violent, disturbingly so at times, but there aren't any spilled entrails, gouged eyeballs or spurting arteries, just consistently wet flesh wounds. Consistently wet flesh wounds set against fully frontally nekkid flesh.
Nightmares, like Stage Fright, Pieces and New York Ripper, took a great deal of its inspiration from Italian Gialli, rather than the still budding slasher genre, but the feel of the film is closer to straight, American-born slasher, especially in terms of the killer's 'sex equals death' motivation (technically it was released the same year as Friday the 13th, negating any real influence either way). For the most part the film is properly endowed in all the right places (splattering blood, T&A), but also strikes all the wrong chords with just as much aggression, which really makes the difference. The acting is all over the place (ironically enough the lead is a terrible actress in real life too), the dialogue is howl-worthy (quite often on purpose – the backstage culture aspects are very well done), and the editing is abrupt and spotty, yet the pace keeps things moving. The best 'bad' aspect is the laughable plot, which like most Gialli, is built around the mystery of the killer's identity, and his or her motivations. In this case the writers make the mistake of sticking the motivation right up front, then explicitly name the character dealing with it – Helen: the main character. The murders are filmed using subjective camera views to cover the identity of the murder, but then, just to make sure we aren't confused by this, Helen repeatedly flashes back to scenes from the stalk and slash moments. The cops have a few red herring suspects, but there's absolutely no reason for the audience to agree with them. In the end Helen is, spoiler alert, revealed to be the killer, and the reveal is played like a shock. Delightful.
Despite its vile reputation, Nightmares is actually quite the classy picture on technical levels. It was filmed using Panavision anamorphic stock, and Lamond injects as much art into his framing as he can muster. The Halloween and Dario Argento influences loom heavily in the compositions. This transfer is very similar to the AU R4 PAL disc, though I think I'd give that disc a slight edge in terms of clarity. The details and edges here are a bit mushy. Colour and utter blackness both play vital roles (as any good Argento rip-off should have it), and are pretty well represented, though I did notice more compression noise on the solid hues than I'm used to for the type. The box art claims the film was mastered from the vault material like Bloody Birthday and The Baby, but I'm a little disappointed by the degree of dirt and other artefacts present here. The film also features a tactful, better-than-it-deserves Brian May score, though it seems that the much in demand composer was only available for a single elongated cue, which is played ad nauseum during every stalking, killing and nightmare sequence. The Dolby Digital mono soundtrack isn't exactly demo worthy, but is clear enough to understand at all times, despite a little muffling. Extras include a relatively amusing commentary with director John Lamond and Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation (the documentary that features the film) director Mark Hartley (Lamond kind of sounds like he's on the verge of death), the same 'Brief History of Slasher Films' (15:10), a John Lamond Trailer reel ( The ABCs of Love and Sex: Australian Style, Felicity, Pacific Banana, Breakfast in Paris and Sky Pirates), Nightmare's trailer, and trailers for other Severin releases.
The Baby
Since you're already spending the night in Sleazeville, why not take a day trip over to WTF Town. The Baby ranks very high on the cluttered weird-shit-o-meter, and even earns special consideration for the relatively mainstream system that birthed it. This bizarre tale of a social worker who takes special interest in a full grown man being treated as an infant by his pseudo-psychotic family wasn't directed by some random Italian exploitation king looking to cash-in on Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, it was ushered into existence by Ted Post, the relatively talented director behind action heavy films like Hang 'Em High, Beneath the Planet of the Apes and Magnum Force. It stars real actors including Ruth Roman ( Strangers on a Train), and '70s TV stars Marianna Hill, Anjanette Comer and Susanne Zenor, and they're taking the production seriously. Perhaps the oddest thing is that The Baby is actually kind of good. At the very least it's almost impossible to look away from the utter insanity. If you aren't careful, you might even find yourself moved. The film is smart enough to keep up a campy façade, but the characters and plotting are straight-faced, which works both to make the comedic and disturbing bits hit with the same impact (and I'm 90% sure the big laughs are intended). Not content to rest on just an original exploitation concept, or even a solid execution, Post fills in the cracks with a little PG-rated T&A, garishly dated sets and wardrobes, and a jaw-dropper of a last minute reveal that gives the director a chance to flex his action movie muscles.
Of the three films discussed here I'd probably mark The Baby the highest for its anamorphic transfer. Like Bloody Birthday it's comparable to many 1080p releases of similar films, just flatter and less sharp. Obscurity and age considered, this is a pretty clean transfer, with minimal compression artefacts, minor print damage, and solid detail levels. Colours are a bit on the yellow side, but the reds and greens of the party scene are quite expressive and vibrant. The Dolby Digital mono soundtrack is also pretty good. The sound is cleaner and less muffled than the other two films, with relatively sharp vocal performances (quite possibly the most disturbing thing about the entire film is the fact that Baby is overdubbed by an actual infant, though this seems to differ between prints) , and relatively warm music. Effects are quite minimal, but don't feature a lot of crackle, and don't spazz-out on high volume levels. Extras include 'Tales from the Crib' a phone interview with director Ted Post, set over scenes from the film (20:00), a phone interview with actor David Mooney (11:50), a trailer, and trailers for other Severin releases.

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Russian authorities issued exit visas to 14 of the 30 Greenpeace members on Thursday, a move which will allow them to leave the country and comes after charges were dropped against them over a protest outside an Arctic oil rig.
Greenpeace said other foreign members of the crew, including Peter Willcox of Connecticut, were expected to get their exit visas on Friday. Willcox is married to Maggy Willcox of Islesboro, Maine. It wasn't clear Thursday when Peter Wilcox would leave Russia.
The 30 people were arrested in September following a protest outside a Russian oil rig in the Arctic and spent two months in jail before they were granted bail in November.
Hooliganism charges against the crew were later dropped after Russia's parliament passed an amnesty law seen as an attempt to assuage criticism of Russia's human rights record before the Winter Olympics in Sochi in February.
Greenpeace said Anthony Perrett of Britain was the first to get a visa Thursday.

The U.S. kicked off the final phase of its World Cup qualification campaign by losing 2-1 in Honduras. The defeat isn't a huge deal. The normal path to qualification consists of winning 4 of the 5 matches to be played in the U.S. and as few as 1 match played away from home. Honduras didn't figure to be that one away victory, although a draw didn't seem too much to ask for.
What disappointed me the most was our play. Timmy Chandler, a decent rightback for a borderline decent German club (Nurnberg), did not distinguish himself in his U.S. debut. Geoff Cameron, a starter for mid-table Stoke City (albeit not at centerback), was poor in central defense.
Moreover, the U.S. had no width in its attack for most of the match. Its midfielders played centrally for the most part, and fullbacks Chandler and Fabian Johnson rarely ventured out of their own half. Consequently, it often seemed as if we were attacking down an elevator shaft. Even on the goal, U.S. players were nearly tripping over each other in the center.
But despite the flooding of central midfield and the conservative play of our fullbacks, the U.S. had problems closing down passing lanes, as coach Jurgen Klinsmann admitted.
Late in the match, Klinsmann played two midfielders wide. But one of them, Sacha Kljestan, looked miscast in the role. By that point, moreover, the two central attacking players, Clint Dempsey and Jozy Altidore, seemed to be out of gas — understandably, given the heat and humidity. Indeed, the U.S. was unable to win possession of the ball in the closing minutes, never mind pose a strong attacking threat.
Things should pick up in the next match, at home against Costa Rica. But as the campaign progresses, U.S. fans will be hoping that the great Landon Donovan (an Evertonian) decides he has one more World Cup run left in him, and thus joins the squad. We may also be hoping that Klinsmann restores veteran Carlos Bocanegra to the center of the defense.

The purpose of the Willamette University Occupational Safety and Health Committee is to bring all Willamette University faculty, staff and students together in a non-adversarial, cooperative effort to promote a safe and healthful workplace.
The goal of the Willamette University Occupational Safety and Health Committee is to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses by involving the community in identifying and mitigating safety hazards.
The Willamette University Occupational Safety and Health Committee has four objectives:
- Involve faculty, staff, and students in achieving a safe, healthful workplace.
- Review all safety-related incidents that fall under the purview of the committee.
- Conduct quarterly workplace inspections, identify hazards, and seek solutions for eliminating or controlling the hazards.
- Annually evaluate Willamette University's accountability system for workplace safety and health and recommend improvements to Administration.
The Willamette University Occupational Safety and Health Committee will consist of 8 community members. At least four appointed by WU from faculty or staff, and four volunteer members representing major activity areas of the University. Members will serve at least one year, but no more than three one year terms. Appointments may be staggered so that the committee consists of a majority of experienced members.
There are also two standing appointments: they are the Safety Education Officer and a representative from Human Resources. These standing appointments will facilitate the operation of the committee and insure that the duties are fulfilled in a reasonable and practical manner. The Safety Education Officer will be responsible for representing the needs and objectives of the committee to university departments as departments seek solutions to the concerns suggested by the committee.

How To: Remove a Stripped Screw
Even the most conscientious DIYer is bound to strip the occasional screw. Don't let this annoyance get in your way! Next time, try one of these useful tips for removing a stripped screw. You'll be back to work in no time.
It was supposed to be a quick and easy repair. But darn it, one of the screws wouldn't budge, and so by the time you finally finished, it had grown dark outside. Yes, stripped screws are extremely frustrating, but they're not impossible to deal with. In fact, it can be pretty easy to remove a stripped screw. If you don't own a screw extractor—a special tapered drill bit with a square head—then all you need to know are a handful of (lifesaving) tips. Scroll down to see seven different methods for how to remove a stripped screw.
Before trying anything else, try this: Put a rubber band over the stripped screw, firmly insert the point of your screwdriver, then slowly unscrew the fastener. Don't have access to a rubber band? Substitute a bit of steel wool instead or some of the green abrasive from the scouring side of a sponge.
Inspect the screw head closely. Is there any daylight between it and the surface to which it's fastened. If so, see if you can get hold of the screw with a pair of locking pliers, also known as vise grips. Provided that the tool has a firm grip on the screw, you should be able to turn the pliers until the screw loosens and pulls away.
Use a hammer to tap the screwdriver down, lodging it as firmly as you can into the screw head. Doing so may provide the extra grip you need to twist the fastener, especially if it's made of soft metal—and, of course, soft metal screws are the kind that are most likely to become stripped in the first place.
Does the stripped screw have a Phillips head? If so, reach for a flat-head screwdriver narrow enough to fit (in its entirety) within the Phillips-head hole. Keep in mind that it takes real muscle to pull this off. To facilitate things, it's smart to combine this clever strategy with the rubber band method described in Option 1.
If there's a Dremel in your workshop—and if you're a committed DIYer, you probably should own one of these handy oscillating tools—affix the metal-cutting disc and create a new, deeper slot in the screw head. Follow up with a flat-head screwdriver, pressing it firmly into the indentation and twisting it slowly.
Sometimes drilling a small hole into a stripped screw can allow your screwdriver to reach deeper into—and achieve a better grip on—the stuck fastener. If you're going to try this approach, make certain to use a drill bit designed for use on metal, not wood. And don't drill too far down; the screw head could pop off!
If you're experienced with welding and have the necessary equipment on hand—and you really want to remove that pesky stripped screw—here's a last-ditch effort you can make. Spot-weld a nut to the top of the screw head, wait a sufficient period of time, then remove both screw and nut by means of a socket wrench.
Armed with all these tips, the next time you strip a screw you can rest assured it's not the end of the world—it's just another solvable, albeit annoying, problem. No single trick works every time, but once you're familiar with all of the options at your disposal for how to remove a stripped screw, you'll gradually learn to recognize which scenarios call for which particular solution.
