Hungry Bengal Kitten (Impatient Kitty)

Uploaded by noossab1 on Aug 4, 2007

This is the original video that went viral in 2007. It appeared on the Tonight Show on 3-20-08, on Oops TV in England on 3-09-09, and America’s Cutest Cat on Animal Planet on 11-13-10.

Please read this before you scream “ANIMAL ABUSE”. This kitten was being fed canned food twice a day and was not starving. You can see a brown bowl of chow on the counter. She was not a stray; she was young and thin. She was completely unharmed on the rounded edge of the can. I did not touch her with the fork. Even a kitten that is well-fed will go crazy for canned food. We simply decided to video our cute new kitten eating and this is what happened. It is a harmless candid video that turned out to be very funny.

Enjoy the priceless moment!!

March of the Pigs? Awaiting Updates…

Small pink pig

I am still awaiting updates on the counterjihad “March of the Pigs” that had been planned for Lyon, France on May 14, 2011.

Here is what I found on the Marche des cochons website:

Rassemblement pour la liberté autorisé, une victoire pour les Identitaires!

Après 48 heures de réflexion, la préfecture du Rhône vient d’autoriser la manifestation identitaire « rassemblement pour la liberté » de samedi prochain 14 mai. Cette autorisation vient d’être notifiée suite à une rencontre en Préfecture entre les services de l’Etat et les organisateurs.

Il s’agit d’une véritable victoire politique. Après son ubuesque interdiction de la « Marche des cochons » de la semaine dernière, l’Etat a donc reculé. Il est vrai qu’il lui était difficile d’interdire un rassemblement pacifique pour la défense de la liberté d’expression. Ce d’autant plus qu’il n’a pas une seconde envisagé d’interdire la contre-manifestation des nervis d’extrême-gauche qui, depuis des semaines, appellent à la violence physique sur leurs sites internet à l’encontre des militants identitaires ou patriotes. Une contre-manifestation qui sera sous surveillance policière à environ 4 kms du rassemblement identitaire.

Le Bloc Identitaire se félicite de cette décision, conforme à la démocratie et aux droits des gens. Il remercie l’ensemble de ses opposants et notamment les élus socialistes et Verts de la municipalité lyonnaise qui, depuis quinze jours, par leur battage médiatique hostile, ont servi d’attaché de presse, ô combien efficaces, du mouvement identitaire. Toute peine méritant salaire, le Bloc Identitaire leur adressera prochainement, à titre amical, le programme de leur candidat à l’élection présidentielle, Arnaud Gouillon. Ils découvriront sans doute alors avec surprise, loin des clichés et des caricatures, les propositions du Bloc identitaire en matière d’environnement, de rapports nord-sud ou de construction européenne.

Après cette première victoire, le Bloc Identitaire et Rebeyne! appellent tous les Lyonnais et habitants de la région, à transformer l’essai et à venir participer à ce Rassemblement pour la Liberté, samedi à 14 h 30, place St-Jean à Lyon.

Face à toutes les menaces, à tous les abandons, l’espoir doit renaitre : Lyon sera toujours la capitale de la résistance!

Translated into English via Google:

Freedom rally authorized a victory for Identitaires!

After 48 hours of reflection, the prefecture of the Rhone has cleared the event identity “freedom rally” next Saturday May 14 This authority has been notified following a meeting in the Prefecture between state departments and organizers.

This is a real political victory. After his grotesque prohibition of “March of Pigs” last week, the state has declined. It is true that it was difficult to ban a peaceful rally for freedom of expression. Especially since he has not considered one second-demonstration against the banning of left-wing thugs who, for weeks, calling for physical violence on their websites against activists identity or patriots. An event-cons who will be under police surveillance at about 4 kms from the gathering of identity.

Block Identity welcomes this decision, consistent with democracy and human rights of people. He thanked all his opponents including the Socialists and Greens elected to the City of Lyon, who last fortnight, by their hostile media coverage, served as press secretary, oh so effective, the identity movement. Any punishment worthy salary, Identity Bloc send them soon, as friendly, the program of their presidential candidate, Arnaud Gouin. They then discover perhaps surprisingly, far from the stereotypes and caricatures, the proposals of the identity block in the environment, North-South relations or European integration.

After this first victory, the Bloc and Identity Rebeyne! Lyonnais and call all people of the region, transforming the test and come participate in this Rally for Freedom, 14 am Saturday at 30, Place St-Jean in Lyon.

Address all threats, all withdrawals must hope reborn: Lyon will always be the capital of the resistance!

It appears as though the rally was scheduled to go ahead after all. I was unable to find any videos or news coverage of the rally itself. If you are aware of any, please contact me at 1389 Blog.

In any event, I have chosen to honor at least the efforts, and hopefully also the success, of these counterjihad marchers with a decidedly non-halal culinary effort of my own:

Fatwa-Worthy Pasta Sauce (4 Servings)

1 lb. hot Italian pork sausage (remove sausage casings, or buy sausage meat without casings, it is best to buy sausage in natural casing, many producers use casings from www.dcwcasing.com/, so that should not be a problem)
1 medium-sized onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
Olive oil (or sunflower oil)
1 carton fresh mushrooms (or 1 can sliced mushrooms)
28 oz. (or more) tomato puree
8 oz. dry red wine
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp. fennel
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. parsley
1 tsp. chopped chives
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. basil
1 bay leaf

Brown the onions, garlic, sausage, fennel, and red pepper flakes in a frying pan with the oil. If you are using fresh mushrooms, slice them and add them to the sausage mixture. Do not overcook the sausage.

Put the sausage mixture and all remaining ingredients into a large saucepan and mix well. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard bay leaf before serving.

This sauce can be used with just about any type of pasta, including lasagna.

The sauce requires no added salt, because the sausage meat contains enough salt to flavor the entire dish. The dry red wine adds just the right degree of tartness, without any need for vinegar or sugar.

Gates of Vienna: The March of the Pigs

Many of you will remember last year’s invasion of a French halal fast food restaurant by dozens of Counterjihad insurgents wearing pig masks. A video of the event became an instant hit on YouTube.

The first anniversary of this historic occasion will be celebrated on May 14 with a “March of the Pigs” in Lyon. Many thanks to Bear for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes for subtitling the video announcement of this event.

Kitten Wearing a Tiny Hat: Audition Outtakes

(h/t: snowcrash)

Kitten Wearing a Tiny Hat Eats a Tiny Ice-Cream Cone

Actually, the adorable tabby kitten, Scout Jr., eats just the ice cream itself, not the cone. Unlike dogs and human beings, cats are “obligate carnivores”; that means they need plenty of animal protein just to stay alive. Kittens require an even higher percentage of animal protein in their diets than do mature cats.

These YouTube clips are actually from advertisements for Lake Street Creamery, a mobile ice cream vendor. As a disclaimer, I have yet to sample their wares. Though I admit to liking butter pecan ice cream, I very rarely indulge in ice cream or, indeed, in any form of sweets. I can’t abide artifical sweeteners, and due to a hereditary condition known as impaired glucose tolerance, sugar in any form disagrees with my innards. Like Scout Jr., I feel much healthier when I have plenty of protein. But because I’m not a cat, for a limited period of time I can get by with various tree nuts, as well as the humble but delectable peanut.
