Wednesday, June 23, 2010 – Daily News – 3B Odds & Ends Pork board squeals over unicorns PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — It’s official: The National Pork Board says it knows unicorns don’t exist. The industry group says it was only protecting its trademark when it issued cease-and-desist warning to online retailer ThinkGeek for call- ing a fake unicorn meat product ‘‘the new white meat.’’ The fictional canned meat, described as an ‘‘excellent source of sparkles,’’ was an April Fool’s prank. But the 12-page letter from the board’s law firm was no joke. ‘‘We certainly offered our apologies,’’ Scott Kauffman, President and CEO of Geeknet Inc., the parent company of ThinkGeek, told the Associated Press. ‘‘It was not our intention to confuse the public as to the attributes and qualities of the two meats.’’ In a public apology this week, ThinkGeek said its nonexistent canned unicorn meat is sparkly, a bit red and not approved by any gov- ernment entity. ‘‘We certainly understand that unicorns don’t exist,’’ said Ceci Sny- der, vice president of marketing for the National Pork Board. ‘‘Yes, it’s funny. But if you don’t respond, you are opening your trademark up to challenges.’’ The council said it is in discussions with the company. ‘‘Where we feel victimized, is I don’t know of another organization that does more to promote pork products than our site,’’ Kauffman said, noting the company sells around 20 real items related to bacon, such as bacon gumballs and bacon soap. ThinkGeek ‘‘launches’’ mock products every April Fool’s day. The company said it was surprised the board did not raise any concerns about another prank item this year called ‘‘My First Bacon’’ — a talk- ing stuffed toy that looked like a piece of bacon. ‘‘To be attacked in this manner, given all we do for pork, the irony is not lost on us,’’ he said. Rat suspected of starting fire YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) — A rat is suspected of starting a fire at the Veterans of Foreign War building in Yakima. KAPP-TV reports that investigators discovered a rat had chewed through an electrical cord. The rat apparently caught fire and ran to its nest, igniting flammable items. The fire last week spread quickly through the building, damaging several rooms and war memorabilia. Summer means snowballs in Pa. PITTSBURGH (AP) — The patrons carrying small coolers and plastic bags into Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Science Center weren’t bringing their lunch. They were packing snowballs. Monday marked the first day of summer and the science museum’s annual Snowball Day. Visitors are encouraged every year to save a snowball from the winter in their freezer and then take it to the science center on the first day of summer. Those who do get to name their own price to get into the museum for the day. But the most fun comes when they get to throw their snowballs into the Ohio River from the deck of a submarine that is docked outside the museum.
