Meat the Truth!

http://www.meatthetruth.nl/content/view/113

"A vegan driving a 4x4 is creates less emissions than a meat eater on a
bicycle."

The quote come originally from Captain Paul Watson <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Watson>  (founder and President of
the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society) from his article A very Inconvenient Truth
<http://www.permaworld.org/members/permaworld/weblog/a_very_inconvenient
_truth_-.html
>  and is:


The bottom line is that to be a conservationist and an environmentalist, you must practice and promote vegetarianism or better yet veganism. It is the lifestyle that leaves the shallowest ecological footprint, uses fewer resources and produces less greenhouse gas emissions, it's healthier and it means you're not a hypocrite. In fact a vegan driving a Hummer would be contributing less greenhouse gas carbon emissions that a meat eater riding a bicycle.


This news report:


Rearing cattle produces more greenhouse gases than driving cars,
UN report warns <http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=20772&Cr=global&Cr1=environment>


is pretty authoritative. It refers to the United Nation's 'Livestock's Long Shadow' report which is pretty damning for the planet should western diets continue their preoccupation with eating animals.

YouTube Mix = Funky Songs

There's this guy, Kutiman, who took some random YouTube videos and mixed them, forming whole new songs and (music) videos.  This is COOLER THAN COOL.  Hey, maybe he took a snippet from one of your YouTube videos!  He's got 7 songs in this 'album.'  He's working on his 2nd YouTube mix album already.  Kutiman, an Israeli born in Jerusalem, is one of the musical geniuses of our time.  Check his work out.

Yell for Help?

Wondering where to go to this weekend?  http://www.yelp.com/ (Yelp) provides reviews of most restaurants, shops, and other establishments around your neighborhood from your very own neighbors.  Or visitors.

Problem is, if you are not from the US or not yet visiting the US, they don't have reviews yet of places in other cities and in most other US cities.

They do have information about my favorite places in Berkeley and San Francisco though... :-D

Remember the Milk - Don't Forget To-Do any of your Tasks

RTM (Remember the Milk) is an award-winning, free (for now) online to-do or task list web app.  It is cool!  But I don't use it.  Yet.  Ehehehe.  :-D

The good thing about it is you can add and view items to your to-do list from multiple locations - via your mobile phone web browser, via your iPhone or iPod touch, via Gmail, via Google Calendar, via RSS feeds, via email, and so on and so forth.

Never forget what things you need to do ever again.

Go visit the site.  Remember the Milk.
