From the website : Just after sunrise on Halloween, a sole trick or treater descended on the home of University of California-San Francisco primate vivisector Stephen Lisberger. As Stephen and his wife Chieko slept in San Francisco, tubes of superglue were used to fill his front door locks.

10,000 Birds

MARCH 2, 2015

Though all birds will be somehow impacted by climate change, I think it is important to note that not all will suffer. High elevation species will surely suffer from shifting and reduced habitat, and that process seems to have started already. Will early-arriving birds suffer from having to endure late winter storms?

Vamsee Juluri, Professor of Media Studies at the University of San Francisco, takes me back to graduate school when he writes of the importance of the stories we tell ourselves in " Use Free Speech to Celebrate Animal Life, Not to Enjoy Their Suffering." They certainly depict cruelty to animals, right?
