Soft Morning Light

Ninja Dog - 忍者犬: Soft Morning Light

The soft, warm sunlight shining through a slight mist shortly after sunrise created this beautiful light and colour, which I contrasted with the darker trees in the foreground. Here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ninja_dog/24855078085/in/photostream/

Despite the terrible floods in Pakistan, ordinary people there continue to show the best of humanity. Here they are rescuing a stray dog found trapped in a ditch. Look for the helpers.

The world's first 100% hydrogen-powered trains are up and running in Germany. They can travel all day on a single tank of hydrogen, and the only emissions are steam and water.

SWEET DOG RESCUED FROM ‘HORRIFIC’ BREEDER...

PETA-1-1-1-1000x640.jpg

Ruthie, one of 39 dogs recently seized from a notorious breeder and repeat offender in Michigan following an undercover investigation from nonprofit People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), has learned to trust humans again with lots of patience and loving care in her new forever home.

The sweet pup now enjoys toys, walks, and “cuddle puddles” with her new companion animal parents Nikki and Kenny Carney and “grandmother” Eleanor.

But it’s been a process. Ruthie formerly spent her life outdoors in a muddy pen, while being repeatedly bred to produce puppies for JRT John’s Jack Russelll Terriers, according to PETA.

Kenny said it took five days for Ruthie to look him in the eye, according to a video released by PETA,  while Nikki added that in her first days of freedom the tiny dog would back away and hide every chance she got.

The couple fortunately was dog sitting for two other sweet dogs when they brought Ruthie home, and Kenny credits the resulting bond as key to Ruthie’s recovery.

“They pretty much taught her the ins and outs of everything here,” he said...

WHITESNAKE’S TANYA O’CALLAGHAN: THE PLANT-POWERED BASSIST WHO BELIEVES PEOPLE ARE INHERENTLY KIND

MEL_1096-1-1000x640.jpg

Irish musician Tanya O’Callaghan has always trusted her gut and followed her passion — whether that was challenging her family’s eating habits when she learned, at age four, that “meat” came from the animals she loved or leaving her straight-A school record as a teen to become a now famous, touring musician.

O’Callaghan — who made headlines in 2021, after the already star-studded bassist got scooped up as the first female musician to join the band Whitesnake – said she’s never strayed from her plant-based lifestyle, not even while on the road during world tours.

“Veganism on the road,” O’Callaghan started, with a laugh. “Simple thing is, I never question it. It’s not a case of, ‘I can’t find anything vegan, I’m going to have animals today.’ It’s just not an option.”

Her journey started in Mullingar, a small town in Ireland, where O’Callaghan recalled a herd of cows who lived nearby, one of whom she affectionately named “Daisy.” When her older brother — no doubt meaning to be annoying, she said — informed her that the meat on her plate was “Daisy,” the young O’Callaghan snapped.

The adult O’Callaghan clarified that the specific cow she named Daisy wasn’t likely the one on her plate, but she vowed to never eat meat again. 

“I had a meltdown,” she said. “I was four when I realized what meat was, that it came from an animal. I loved animals. That was it.”

Volunteer work rehabilitating animals at a local shelter exposed her to horrific abuse inflicted on the animals she loved, and O’Callaghan took her anger and turned it into activism — a self-described “aggressive” activism that she’s since shifted to instead awakening people’s natural curiosity and tapping into people’s natural kindness.

“My big belief with this is just living by example,” she said. “I’m not here to judge anybody. I love getting into interesting conversations with diametrically opposed views. I really believe that that’s where the growth is. Obviously there’s a percentage of the human race that we’ll never know why they just don’t seem to have empathy. But the majority of people all over the world are inherently kind, and they’re just trying to live their lives the same way you and I are. They’re just trying to be happy, have food and shelter, have some type of purpose.”

Travel, and connecting to so many people with different beliefs and backgrounds, helped O’Callaghan refine her approach to activism.

She also channeled her passions – for travel, animals, the planet, and lifelong learning — into an in-the-works docuseries, “Highway to Health,” which tracks her travels through the world as a plant-based touring musician, along with co-host Derrick Green.

A Q&A with Tanya O’Callaghan: The Plant-Based Bassist of Whitesnake

Tell us more about your early connection to animals and your choice to stop eating them?

Even when you look back on all my childhood photos, when I’m really tiny, there’s animals everywhere. So I have that very visceral memory of just instinctively and innately being drawn to animals from the beginning. 

It was because of a cow that I called Daisy. I grew up in a small town in Ireland, and behind our house was a field full of cattle. They weren’t  ours, but when you’re a child, you think all animals are your pet, right? I named all the cows, and one was Daisy. So one day I was sitting at the table, I was four or five, my brother told me, “That’s Daisy on the table.”  It wasn’t obviously THE Daisy, but I remember vividly being like, “Wait, what? That’s animals?” And that was it. That was my first, very guttural feeling of “This is not right.”

(Getting my family on board) was a little bit of a battle, but at the same time, I’m naturally so stubborn. One day my dad just started coming home with veggie burgers. Funny enough, (now) I’ll hear my mom say stuff like, “Oh, I heard dairy causes inflammation.” And I’m like, “I told you that 15 years ago.”  Now my family is predominantly plant-based....
