Black Alien Pigs
Everyone loves pigs. If not as pets, at least on a plate. Bacon is great, and many don't even care where this bacon comes from as long as it ends up on the plate. Would you care if it came from black alien pigs?

Pigs are well taken care of in the McCann farm

Minnesota eats a lot of bacon. A farmer, Jack McCann is one of the many Minnesotans who own a pig farm. He mostly grows Berkshire breed pigs that are completely black. I'm sure many would even mistake them for aliens. Jack McCann gives the pigs a chance to run in the snow during the winter and enjoy mud baths in the winter. He also feeds them organic grain. Healthy bacon, I'd say!

He makes $200 per black alien pig

Jack says he makes anywhere between $150 and $200 per pig he raises.

    Did you know that pigs are the 3rd smartest animal alongside dolphins and chimpanzees? The story of The Three Little pigs is about three pigs who were set off on their own into the world. All three build their homes one by one. They encounter a wolf who tries to capture each pig individually. The first two pigs built separate homes that were not very stable, so the wolf destroyed the homes and eats those pigs. The wolf is mostly successful except when he encounters the third pig who has built a brick house. The wolf tries to trick the little pig to get him out of his home. The wolf is persistent in this goal, but in the end, it’s no use. The pig lures the wolf into a boiling pot of water and eats him in the end. Due to these actions, the third pig is the most admirable of the three. The third pig is the most admirable because he is clever, ambitious and hardworking.…

    Loren Gonzalez CAS 291 Take Home Midterm #1 Short Answers 1 - Why did Native Americans begin to raise pigs in the seventeenth century, and how did the English in New England respond to this? Initially, the English used pigs to invade Indian territory. They were left to roam free in the area due to their ability to virtually eat almost anything, and as the Indians realized the rapid and cheap ability of the pigs to reproduce and serve as a source of food and materials, pig grazing eventually became part of their subsistence methods. However, the English saw this as a violation of property rights, given that pigs were considered to be “improving the land” when eating from the grasses of infertile soil. This pushed them to take measures that disadvantaged…

    There are around 68 million hogs throughout the United States. Almost all of those pigs are produced to be slaughtered and consumed. The show pig industry is a tiny fraction of that 68 million, but is growing bigger and stronger year after year. As some people see buying a single baby pig for thousands of dollars is quite crazy, I see it as a way of life. From studying genetics in order to breed the most superior pairs, to preparing a pig to go in the show ring, raising show pigs in a competitive manner is a practice that takes your best effort 365 days of the year. Many people may not understand my passion for walking a pig around with a dinky whip, but it is something that I could never sacrifice. My desire to raise and sell show pigs stems from early in my life.…

    War Pigs

    • 693 Words
    • 3 Pages

    War in general is a term that’s generally looked down upon in society. People see that in the end it’s the death of many, just to get the an end result that can be achieved with various other methods. This can be related to our current War on Terror, to World War I and II, and even the Vietnam War, where anti-war feelings were really well known. A big way that these anti-feelings were expressed were through the sound of music, from notable artists and bands such as The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Pete Steeger. The Vietnam War era of the mid and late 1960’s to the early to mid 1970’s is filled with songs that speak of just how much people wanted the troops to come back home and how much they were against it. One song that really caught my eye was War Pigs by Black Sabbath. It is a hard metal song that is widely considered one of the greatest heavy metal songs of all time and features one of the greatest guitar solos of all time. It’s not a genre of music of which I linked to anti-war, or one that I really enjoyed before, but it was a nice change of pace where I found very meaningful lyrics to go along with some skillful guitar, and the fact that Ozzy Osbourne was singing was the icing on the cake.…

    “Man is born free, yet everywhere he is in chains….The one who thinks himself the master of others is a much a slave as they.”(Daggar pg 221) This quote best reflects the two liberation ideologies that will be discussed in this essay, black liberation and women liberation. Both were introduced in the 1960’s and still to this day some people still feel “ held down,” but the aim for these ideologies is to liberate these groups from the internal and external restraints that exist. The agent, obstacle, and goal for each of these will show how they see freedom and what is in their way of achieving that. Also the explanatory, evaluative, orientation, programmatic functions will be explained and how each affects the liberation ideology.…

    Harper Lee's renowned novel, To Kill A Mockingbird, depicts the racial injustices of the deep south during the early 20th century. Protagonist Atticus Finch, a knowledgeable attorney, is faced with the daunting task of defending a convicted black man in a hostile court filled with bigoted Alabamians. Defendant Tom Robinson is charged with the rape of Mayella Ewell, a young white woman. It quickly becomes apparent that despite the fact that Robinson is clearly innocent, the jury has no intention of acquitting a black man charged with raping a white women. Despite the seemingly insurmountable odds, Atticus delivers a profoundly illuminating speech:…
