Pamela Anderson Wants to Feed the World

With a devastating food crisis in Haiti and other parts of the world celebs are looking for answers in new technologies. Vertical Farming has emerged as that new technology and Terrasphere Systems, LLC as the company to watch.

East Quogue, NY (PRWEB) August 31, 2010

Pamela Anderson, the former Baywatch beauty and playboy playmate that has captivated the imagination of the world has joined forces with an unlikely new hero of the Green Party, retired hockey star and enforcer, Georges Laraque. Pamela the 5”7 105 lb blonde bombshell has been hard at work at being a vegetarian for over two decades, plus being a big PETA supporter as well as the celebrity spokes model for the American Liver Foundation. Pamela has excelled at doing good while the 6’4, 265lb Geroge Laraque has been beating the stuffing out of other hockey players in the NHL. So, what do Pamela Anderson and Georges Laraque have in common?

The answer…Haiti and a pioneering new technology company in the Vertical Farming world called Terrasphere Systems, LLC which has emerged as a rally point for both Pamela and Georges.

The below was taken from Pamela Anderson’s Facebook page.

The Terrasphere technology has the ability to change the worlds Agri food production methods and will lead the way by example for many other green sustainable technology’s to join in its quest in creating the possibility of real change for the planet, Terrasphere with out a doubt is the truest form of self sustaining economic development that the world has to offer and will be able to deliver a safe, trusted, guaranteed food supply of fruits and vegetables 12 months of the year anywhere in the world with zero water waste,,, Nick Brusatore Inventor and Co Founder says he expects many other great successful technology’s driven by great inventors to come forth and stand with Pamela, Georges and Himself to help make major change for humanity.

Vertical farming essentially means that fresh fruit and vegetables are grown in compact, indoor facilities. Plant trays are stacked upwards, and then placed next to a light source to grow without the use of pesticides. The amazing thing about all this is that because of TerraSphere’s indoor environment, food can be produced anywhere in the world, in any climate, 365 days a year. I’m telling you, this technology offers so many advantages. For instance, it can also produce crops 10 times faster than other agriculture methods like farming and greenhouses and grow fruit and vegetables that last longer. The natural resources we need to grow food need to be conserved and TerraSphere does that too – land and water use is greatly reduced and power use is cut by 50 percent. The facilities can be built wherever the people need them, making it much less expensive – inner cities, the African desert and places like Haiti (which is where I come in).

Another major supporter of TerraSphere Systems and this new food growing technology is Atlas Vertical Farming, which intends to invest $30 million dollars to support this venture.

Pamela Anderson, The Most Downloaded Person On The Internet, Wins Action

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indiana Court Stops Fraudulent use of PamelaAnderson.com

August 27, 2010–An Indiana court yesterday ordered a return of the domain name PamelaAnderson.com to the famous actress. The domain name was controlled by a Canadian-based company CMAEON and its founder Tim Vasko.

Vasko, a U.S. citizen, relocated to Canada in the 90’s after a number of questionable legal cases including a Securities and Exchange Commission case where he was alleged of making materially misleading disclosure filings with the SEC and engaged in a scheme to flaunt his former company, VIP Global Capital, Inc. He was also alleged of manipulating the market for VIP’s securities.

Back in August 2009, Vasko set up PamelaAnderson.com and a fan club site that captured all of the internet addresses of people who visited Anderson’s site which became increasingly popular during her celebrated appearance on “Dancing With the Stars.” He then transferred the domain to his own registrar, eNom Incorporated, and concealed the information of PamelaAnderson.com from Anderson using a proxy server.

Using Pamela’s fan club list, Vasko tried to market various celebrity products through another site called CelebrityConnected.com. Other celebrities on this site include Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson and Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Anderson was represented by her agent Mark Roesler, CMG Brands LLC Chairman and CEO.
CMG, headquartered in Indianapolis with an office in Los Angeles, represents over 300 entertainment, sports, historical and music clients.

Roesler said, “It was necessary to move as quickly as we could in this action with the TRO because not only had this company taken control of her name, but they were fraudulently representing and marketing to her many fans around the world. It was particularly outrageous and the judge even commented on how they even had an ‘Ask Pamela’ section on the website.”

ABOUT PAMELA ANDERSON

Pamela Anderson: Why I’m doing pantomime

(BBC LONDON) She is fondly remembered for running along a Californian beach in slow motion. For her next role, former Baywatch pin-up Pamela Anderson will visit the festive, innuendo-filled fairytale world of pantomime.

The actress and Playboy model will star opposite Les Dennis in Aladdin at the Liverpool Empire this Christmas.

Anderson starred in Baywatch from 1992-97 and her appeal helped it become recognised by the Guinness World Records as the most watched TV series in history, with an estimated weekly audience of 1.1 billion at its peak.

She explains why she thinks panto would go down well in the US, says she is not doing it for the money – and reveals why she is living in a trailer park.

How was panto first explained to you and what did you think of the idea?

I thought I was miming in a box, which wasn’t the case but I already said I would do it even when I thought it was that.

My manager at the time was British so he told me ‘you’re probably not going to want to do this’. I always know, when someone says that to me, that I probably will want to do it. He explained to me what pantomime was and I thought it was a fantastic idea. But I was thinking mime.

You first did it last year in London – what did you make of it?

I thought it was great. People always say Americans don’t get it, but I think it’s terrific. I wish they did more theatre like this in America. I think people would love it.

And it’s nice [that] children experience theatre for the first time sometimes coming to panto and I think it would be nice to encourage that in America as well, at a younger age.

Who enjoyed it more last year – the children or the dads?

Oh I don’t know. Hopefully the children. Everyone’s a child. Especially men.

What does your character look like and do in the show?

I play the Genie in the lamp and I was wearing a bedazzled red swimsuit last year. I may have another friend design the costumes this year, I seem to have a lot of friends that want to help out. Philip Treacy will make me a hat, of course – something wild and fun.

Do you mind the show making lots of references to Baywatch?

That’s fine with me – of all the things to refer back to I think that’s one of the things I can be happy about. Of course, you’ve got to poke fun at yourself.

You can’t take yourself seriously doing panto.

I’m happy with that. I feel most comfortable. It seems silly that I’m on stage, even though I’m starting to enjoy it and hopefully will do more. I love the whole process of the theatre and I think I’ve really gotten the bug.

Is it also a good way to make a good living in a short space of time?

It’s not a lot of money! It’s actually for the fun. Of course it’s a job as well but I really enjoy doing it and it’s a great experience, like Dancing With the Stars was.

I love being on the stage. I love doing something new. It’s challenging, it’s scary, it’s all the good things that I really like. It’s thrilling and it’s doing things like this that keeps you out of trouble.

Will you be doing Strictly Come Dancing in the UK?

I don’t know if it’s Strictly Come Dancing but I know I’ve been invited to the UK to do some dancing. Any chance I can to dance because I love it so much so I’m sure we’re going to be doing things and hopefully here. I would in a second.

Stories have been written about you living in a trailer park – is that true?

I have a few homes. I’m building a home in Malibu and I’m building a home in Canada. I bought a trailer a long time ago and friends and family have stayed in it before, and I finally said, you know what, we’re just going to stay in here until my house is done.

And actually we love it so much that we don’t want to leave. My kids don’t want to leave.

Pamela Anderson was speaking to BBC News entertainment reporter Ian Youngs.

Fuss over my PETA ad was good for the cause: Anderson

(Indo Asian News Service)- Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson is glad her racy PETA promo was banned in her native Canada as she feels the furore over the picture make headlines around the globe.

The advertisement for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) shows the former Baywatch babe wearing a bikini and sporting the words of butchers’ cuts of meat printed all over her flesh.

“It was good for us actually. It was banned from the square, the Montreal downtown because it actually made worldwide news that way, so thanks Montreal. It was good because we just wanted to get the message out that we all have the same parts and that there are all different reasons to go vegetarian. Spread the word,” dailystar.co.uk quoted her as saying.

Anderson went to Montreal last month to unveil the poster at Jacques-Cartier square, but city officials refused to allow the event to go ahead insisting the image was “sexist”.

Pamela Anderson joins campaign to stop Ringo Starr`s house being demolished

By Sophie Eager Aug 20, 2010, 0:18 GMT

(Monsters and Critics.com) Pamela Anderson has joined the campaign to stop Ringo Starr’s former home being demolished.

Anderson, 43, met ex-MP Gyles Brandreth on BBC show The One Show and agreed with him that the Victorian house in Toxteth, where the Beatle lived, should be left alone.

However, a spokesman for Liverpool council has said: ‘Ringo lived in Madryn Street for just a short time when he was a baby. This house has little true historic value.’

Pamela Anderson Helps Pets Abandoned After Spill

(Associated Press) Most of the roughly 50 abandoned dogs parading under the oaks at New Orleans City Park on Monday were bound for a pet adoption program in Virginia, but two were headed for California with their new owner, actress Pamela Anderson.

“My son was hoping we could take all 50,” Anderson said before latching on to her two new charges — two small brown dogs tentatively identified by shelter officials as Chihuahua mixes. Anderson named them in honor of fellow actresses Gina Lollobrigida and Brigitte Bardot.

Anderson helped walk the dogs as part of a news conference calling attention to a program aimed at helping deal with an overflow of abandoned pets since the BP oil spill.

“We couldn’t find homes for all the dogs that were being surrendered before the spill,” said Bridgette Verdin of the Humane Society of Louisiana, which is working with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and several New Orleans area shelters to find homes for the dogs. Verdin said the spill, which has caused people to lose jobs and income in southeastern Louisiana, only made the existing animal adoption problems worse.

Anderson is the honorary director of PETA. The organization, based in Norfolk, Va., said in a news release that it is working with the Virginia Beach SPCA on an emergency “adopt-a-thon” to find homes for the animals, some of which were given up by people affected by the spill.

Several southeastern Louisiana animal shelters have reported a spike in the number of animals brought in since the April 20 drilling rig explosion that sent millions of gallons of oil spilling into the Gulf. In coastal St. Bernard Parish, for instance, an official reported that 117 animals were given up in June, up by 100 from the 17 reported in June 2009.

Organizers of Monday’s event said shelters from the coastal parish of Plaquemines and from other parishes farther inland were represented.

Pamela Anderson to Help Roast David Hasselhoff

Posted by Devon Thomas

NEW YORK (CBS) Pamela Anderson will help roast The Hoff.

PICTURES: Pamela Anderson

The former “Baywatch” TV lifeguard, will be on hand to poke fun at her “Baywatch” co-star David Hasselhoff in a televised Comedy Central event taping on Aug. 1.

According to USA Today, other celebs participating in the roast of the 58-year-old actor include Whitney Cummings, Greg Giraldo, George Hamilton, Hulk Hogan, Lisa Lampanelli, Jeffrey Ross and Jerry Springer. Seth MacFarlane signed on as emcee for the event.

Hasselhoff has already taped two new promo ads for the roast and sounds primed for ribbing. Both ads include the actor eating a hamburger, alluding to the 2007 video made by his daughters showing him drunk and lying on the floor trying to eat a burger.

Anderson is a vocal PETA supporter, so maybe there will be some dukes put up by the star over Hasselhoff’s meat consumption? The actress had her own roast on the network in 2005.

The show will broadcast on Aug. 15 on Comedy Central.
