The Animal Rights National Conference 2010 in DC.

The much anticipated AR2010 conference has come and gone, and when it came to going, it was all too fast, and all too soon. What it did leave, however, is a very tangible and vivid memory, bolstered by a set of photographic images detailing every occurrence and nuance and impression and emotion. I have since uploaded almost 150 pictures into my Facebook site (Anthony Marr), of my personal friends and myself at the conference . These and what they represent I will cherish past my dying day.

TAKEN FROM ANTHONY MARR’S CARE 7 TOUR BLOG 24 – NEW JERSEY

[Hope, Anthony and Baby Declan]

July 10, Saturday

I got up at 3:45 a.m. to drive from Steve E.’s house in Middlesex, New Jersey, to the Philadelphia Int’l Airport (PHL) to pick up Catherine Garneau who took a red-eye flight from Long Beach, California, around 6:30 a.m. We will spend a week together at and around Middlesex, then drive to DC on July 15, Thursday, to attend the Animal Rights Conference (see www.ARConference.org). It was, and still is, a joyous reunion since we bade each other farewell on May 3, when I left for Las Vegas.

[Catherine at the PHL]

Saturday evening, Steve, Catherine and I returned to Carol Davis’ place for a small intimate dinner attended also by Kevin, Anna and a man from Peru, named “Wolf” who spoke at length about the Inca culture. Michael prepared for us an exquisite multi-course dinner, after which we showed them Catherine’s Tigress Sita painting, which received its due applause.

July 11, Sunday, was the day we visited For The Animals Sanctuary. We spent the first two hours with the animals, which comprised cows, pigs, goats and chickens. They were mostly escapees from their respective concentration camps and torture chambers – freedom fighters in their own right. Of course, in the scale of things they were less than drops in an ocean, but they also signify hope for the millions that otherwise would end up in slaughterhouses without exception.

Speaking of “Hope”, there is a cow there by that name. Here is Debbie’s own comment about her. “Hope the cow was destined to be slaughtered in December 2009. She lived on a local PA dairy farm and became infertile. If they don’t have babies they don’t produce milk and would therefore be sent off to slaughter. She was lucky to be saved by For The Animals sanctuary She is starting to trust people now she seems to know she will not be violated here. Its awesome to see her love again Such a sweet cow.”

I was forewarned that Hope especially did not trust men, but when I approached her, not without some trepidation, she remained calm and serene, and allowed me to touch her. After a while, when I was stroking her face, her long, sand-paper tongue came out, and began licking my hand. All witnessing this were enthralled, not the least of all myself, and little baby Declan, son of guests Dana and Steve Read.

Afterward, I delivered to the small gathering my anti-hunting and global warming speech, dedicated to Baby Declan, and all were equally enthralled, not least of all myself at their enthrallment.

Debbie and a few others will be attending the Animal Right Conference, and we gleefully discussed strategies for dealing with any disruptions should they occur (see blog #23).

[Steve Kowalski and Anthony]

A few days ago, Dr. Alex Hershaft mentioned the possibility of me performing on my electronic keyboard for the opening ceremony of the Animal Rights Conference on Thursday evening, as I had done twice before. I have some practicing and derusting to do. Catherine loves my chosen piece, mistakes and all.

As it happens, at this very moment, Catherine is on the phone with the Cincinnati Earthsave chapter, whose organizer is calling to inquire, among other things, about the libelous email “Beware of Anthony Marr” she has received from Anthony Damiano, which has caused several potential event hosts and lodging hosts associated with Earthsave Cincinnati to withhold their offerings. She describes the email as being “disgusting”. And the damage continues.

Anyway, the threat of disruption from Damiano et al not withstanding, Washington DC, here we come!

Ziggy Marley is set to perform at the Wellness & World Music Festival in Desert Hot Springs, California on October 9-10. The festival is meant to bring together the subjects of health, sustainable living and world music.

According to My Desert, promoters of the event are expecting roughly 10,000 people to attend each day and a portion of the proceeds will go towards the Desert Hot Springs Boys and Girls Club in Coachella Valley.

Marley, a yoga enthusiast and vegetarian, fits well with the line of scheduled guest appearances of yoga trainers and wellness authors such as Rodney Yee, Colleen Saidman Yee and Dr. Steven Gundry.

GREAT INTERVIEW WITH ZIGGY ON BEING VEGETARIAN:

A Bloomfield girl’s love of animals shines bright through her volunteer efforts and more. Megan Gainey, daughter of Brian and Shawna Gainey, has been lending more than a hand to the Greene County Humane Society

Megan and her grandma, Ann Gainey, made a visit to the shelter with $100 plus cat and dog food, towels, toys and chew bones.

READ FULL STORY HERE:

Marion Nestle, author of Feed Your Pet Right, wrote the book to bring pet owners a summary of what goes on in the industry that produces savory sauces for four legged connoisseurs. Nestle examines various pet food diets from dry, canned, wet, semi-most, premium, all-natural, and yes, the vegetarian and vegan.

Nestle sat down with Time Magazine to discuss the book, where she gave her take on veggie dogs and cats.

“Cats are carnivorous, but there’s plenty of research that shows they’re perfectly capable of digesting grains, as long as they also get the amino acids, vitamins and minerals they need. Dogs are fine with grains too. In fact, most complete and balanced pet-food products contain grains.”
