Death threats force removal of atheist billboard

"Don't believe in God? You're not alone." was the message on a billboard put up by the Cincinnati Coalition of Reason (Cin CoR) on Reading Road at 12th Street, one block south of Liberty Street in Cincinnati. It went up on Tuesday but by Wednesday afternoon the group was told it would have to come down again. Lamar Advertising, the company that owns the billboard, leases the land on which it stands and the landowner wanted it taken down. He (or she) had been receiving death threats. Fred Edwords, national director of the United Coalition of Reason, said, "We weren't given the landowner's name or precise details, Nor did we pursue them. It was sufficient to learn that this person had received multiple, significant threats and that Lamar would act quickly to alleviate the problem. Nothing like this has ever happened to us before."

Volunteers save hundreds of cats and dogs from death

Hundreds of newborn cats and dogs have been saved from almost certain death this year by a growing foster-care program at OC Animal Care, shelter officials say.

The animals were too small to be spayed or neutered, which meant they could not be adopted into permanent homes. With neither the space nor the staff to care for them until they got bigger, the shelter would have most likely euthanized them in the past.

So far this year, it has found temporary foster homes for 425 animals, mostly kittens.

This year alone, veterinarians and nonprofit rescue groups have taken in some 800 of the youngest animals that need special attention, such as bottle feeding. That’s in addition to the 425 animals placed in foster homes.

After their stint in foster care, the young animals return to the shelter better accustomed to life with people, which makes them easier to adopt. Many also come with hand-written signs from their foster parents tacked to their cages, advertising them to prospective owners.

Racy photos of beauty queen Miss California Carrie Prejean have leaked online and sparked yet more controversy for the beleaguered pageant darling.

Pix of the reigning Miss California posing provocatively - one showing her topless, clad in pink panties and strategically covering her assets with her arm - popped up on website TheDirty.com yesterday, before spreading like wildfire over the net.

The snaps, believed to have been taken when Christian college student Prejean was 17 as part of a modeling portfolio, have promoted calls for her to be stripped of her coveted tiara.

You've all got it infamy!

Prejean's stance also won her favour with anti-gay marriage group the National Organization for Marriage - they recently named her their poster girl and she validated her endorsement with an advertising campaign on their behalf:

I am a Christian, and I am a model...

Thou shall not strip...

"As you can see from the contract, she violated multiple items," Neal told the Associated Press.

Of course, it really isn't that new a word. Oddly enough, Charles Lindbergh the famous aviator commented in a speech in Des Moines in 1941...

Our theaters soon became filled with plays portraying the glory of war. Newsreels lost all semblance of objectivity. Newspapers and magazines began to lose advertising if they carried anti-war articles. A smear campaign was instituted against individuals who opposed intervention. The terms "fifth columnist," "traitor," "Nazi," "anti-Semitic" were thrown ceaselessly at any one who dared to suggest that it was not to the best interests of the United States to enter the war. Men lost their jobs if they were frankly anti-war. Many others dared no longer speak.

California: It's legal to specify desired gender when advertising for a roommate

Q: I have been searching for available apartments online, and with my budget, it looks as if I can only afford to rent an apartment with a roommate. However, I've been seeing a lot of ads for roommates that state "male roommate preferred." Is this legal?

A: Yes, this is legal. Federal Fair Housing laws prohibit discriminatory advertising in all housing regardless of the size of the property. However, in shared living situations or roommate situations where tenants will be sharing bathrooms and kitchens as a common area, expressing a preference based on gender in order to maintain a same-sex household is allowed. Furthermore, in California, the decision made by a housing provider in a roommate situation is not covered by fair housing law. This means that people looking for roommates can state their gender preference and make their rental decision on any criteria they want.

CNN, which invented the cable news network more than two decades ago, will hit a new competitive low with its prime-time programs in October, finishing fourth – and last – among the cable news networks with the audience that all the networks rely on for their advertising.

Individually, the CNN shows were beaten resoundingly by all the Fox News programs

The only CNN show from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. that did not finish last was Larry King, which was third, ahead of the new Joy Behar show on HLN. But Sean Hannity’s show on Fox News had a huge lead with 659,000 viewers

CNN’s performance was worst in the 8 p.m. hour. Bill O’Reilly on Fox News continued his long dominance with the biggest numbers of any host, 881,000 viewers.

U.S. Newspaper Circulation Falls 10%

The two-decade erosion in newspaper circulation is looking more like an avalanche, with figures released Monday showing weekday sales down more than 10 percent since last year, depressed by rising Internet readership, price increases, the recession and papers intentionally shedding unprofitable circulation.

In the six months ended Sept. 30, sales fell by 10.6 percent on weekdays and 7.5 percent on Sundays, from the period a year earlier, for several hundred papers reporting to the Audit Bureau of Circulations. That means that the industry sold about 44 million copies a day — fewer than at any time since the 1940s.

Big Declines for the Biggest Papers

The figures join a list of indicators of the industry’s health — like advertising and newsroom headcounts — that, after years of slipping, have accelerated sharply downward, as newspapers face the greatest threats since the Depression. Through the 1990s and into this decade,

Paid Survey Online - Who will say no to easy extra cash?

Paid Surveys have been proven to be a successful money making resource online. They can be a great way to get some extra cash each month, and there’s no financial risk involved as there are no fees to participate. In the current financial climate doing paid surveys online is a very smart move for anyone - you need no training, just a computer and access to the Internet.

Companies worldwide want to know consumers' opinions about their products and services, so they can improve them and make even more money. Billions of dollars are spent each year on advertising and market research, and we all have a chance of getting a piece of this by expressing our opinion.

Companies will e.g. pay you to take surveys online, try out new products, watch movie trailers, take phone surveys, participate in focus groups, read advertising emails and go mystery shopping. Getting paid for your opinion is a very easy way to make money.

Beer Ad Shows 'Ho White' and 7 Dwarves

Disney is reportedly up in arms over an Australian beer ad that depicts Snow White and the seven dwarves in bed.

The Telegraph reports that in the ad for Jamieson's Raspberry Ale, Snow White is shown blowing smoke rings while lying in bed with half-clothed dwarves. But she's been renamed "Ho White" and dwarves Sleepy, Happy and Doc have been renamed Filthy, Smarmy and Randy.

Australian ad agency the Foundry told Sydney's Daily Telegraph that it wanted to promote the beer as "anything but sweet." The Foundry claims that it had "a little bit of contact" with Disney regarding the ad.

A Web site promoting the new ad had reportedly been set up at anythingbutsweet.com, but the site appears to have been pulled down since the controversy began.

Wanted - Glaswegian interpreters

A London-based translation company is advertising in a Glasgow newspaper for Glaswegian interpreters.

"Translation company seeks speakers of Glaswegian English with knowledge of vocabulary, accent, nuances, to meet interpreting needs of clients who find it an unexpected challenge," the ad reads.

It was placed by Today Translations which said the advert was in response to requests from visitors and foreign businessmen, reports The Times.

The company said that Glasgow was the only city in the UK for which it was seeking interpreters, but Liverpool and Newcastle could be next on the list.

Jurga Zilinskiene, the owner of the company, is a Lithuanian who has lived in Britain for many years and speaks fluent English.

She told how she ran into difficulties this summer when she was in Lanark on holiday and spent some time with Glaswegians.
