realtor in waukesha: Matador Turned Activist, Alvaro Munera :-) - 11/19/09 10:06 AM

Recently, I read an article in HSUS' "All Animals" Magazine about Alvaro Munera.  He battled bulls before cheering audiences for 6 years.  Then, at the age of 18, a fight turned against him, and he lost the use of his legs.  Soon after this tragic event, his closest friend died from bullfighting injuries. 
These experiences did not make Munera bitter.  Now 43, he has devoted his life to rescuing animals in his hometown of Medellin, Columbia, and speaking out against the blood sport that was once his passion.  He is joining Humane Society International in January to tackle Mexico's bullfighting … (18 comments)

realtor in waukesha: Cheese Gone Bad? - 11/18/09 11:47 PM
Being from Wisconsin, I love my cheese!!!  Here is a great tip:
Don't fear if hard cheese has molded in spots.  Just slice off an inch past the questionable bits.  If the whole piece is past its prime (or if it's a soft cheese), toss everything but the rind, especially from hard cheeses like parmesan, pecorino or gruyere.  Simmer these rinds in soups or stews when you want an extra burst of flavor.  Yum!!!

realtor in waukesha: More Good News...In My Opinion! - 11/16/09 12:33 AM
Dairyland Greyhound Track to close!
By Don Walker of the Journal Sentinel Nov. 10, 2009  
Dairyland Greyhound Track in Kenosha, the state’s last pari-mutuel greyhound racing track in the state, will close at the end of the year.
The announcement was made on Tuesday to employees. The track opened on June 20, 1990.
"It’s a sad day for the Dairyland family and Kenosha community,” Roy Berger, Dairyland executive vice president, said in a press release. “We looked at every opportunity to apply for racing dates in 2010, but there was no longer a way to remain a viable entity."

realtor in waukesha: Help Eliminate Glue Traps!!!!! - 11/14/09 01:12 AM
I received this action alert today from Peta...please read and help us help them!!
 
 
 
Dear Kristin,
When PETA found out that ShopRite was selling glue traps—one of the cruelest pest-control devices on the market today—we contacted the company and let it know that animals who get stuck to them suffer for days before they finally die of starvation, dehydration, self-mutilation, and shock. Patches of skin, fur, or feathers are torn off their bodies as they frantically struggle to escape the relentless adhesive. But so far, this has not persuaded ShopRite to do the right thing and get rid … (29 comments)

There's no need to wait until March 17—now's the time to dig out your funny green hat and celebrate.
That's because Ireland has just become the latest European country to ban fur farms! The ban will take effect in three years and will save thousands of animals from the horrors of fur factory farms.
 
 
On fur farms, animals who would roam hundreds of miles in the wild are crammed into wire cages only big enough for the animals to take a few steps in any direction. Hundreds of animals at a time may be kept inside sheds … (24 comments)
