Sarah McLachlan‘s founded Lilith Fair will be giving back to four selected businesses that have pledged to promote a more sustainable world through its products, through the fair’s i4c Campaign.

Bob Barker‘s visit to Larry King Live was, as expected, phenomenal!

Hard to believe the octogenarian is keeping a pace most men half his age would struggle to compete with.

Barker sat alongside Sea Shepherd captain Paul Watson and explained why he gave $5 million to fight whale harpooning.

Harper and other activists probably breathed a sign of relief when the International Whaling Commission recently rejected a much publicized proposal to turn over a 24 year moratorium on commercial whaling.

Nicole Richie is one of the greenest celebrity moms out there, known for being super-strict about buying organic products for the family, eating less meat, and composting. It’s no surprise she’s one of a slew of celebrities backing the Healthy School Meals Act, a bill that would provide regular vegetarian and dairy-free beverage options to more schools.

Richie and her partner, Joel Madden, recently opened a Los Angeles garden for school children and suggests this is yet another way government can give schools the kick they need to churn out healthy, intelligent adults.

“It’s wonderful to teach children about good nutrition and show them how to grow vegetables, but it’s even more important to ensure that they actually have an opportunity to eat these healthier foods on a daily basis.”

If the thought of having to cook breakfast for your in-laws is scarier than being forced to sit in a smelly steakhouse all day long, maybe a recipe making basic blueberry scones will ease the anxiety.

One Frugal Foodie had the task of doing so, and created Blueberry Scones, taken from Erin McKenna’s BabyCakes Cookbook.

Unlike most of the recipes from McKenna’s cookbook, the Blueberry Scones are not gluten-free, but still created with McKenna’s signature ingredients used in her bakeries in NYC and LA like coconut oil and agave nector.

During this 4th of July as we celebrate freedom and independence, it’s a great time think about the men and women who serve and fight to protect ours. And the animals that help them.

Recent statements made by the Army Surgeon General’s special assistant for mental health, Col. Elspeth Cameron Ritchie, M.D., at the annual convention of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), informed that the army is using dogs to help soldiers recover from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

“Animals are not just cute,” Ritchie said. “They provide support.”

"Meat is for Pussies" John Joseph

So much discussion has been generated by John Joseph‘s latest book, Meat Is For Pussies, on his choice of words for the title, especially in the form of some females taking offense.

Not looking to offend at all, perhaps Joseph’s message would have been clearer if he used the term “pussy-dependent,” (note: new category to be added to the DSM in the future)

Joseph said to Punk News, “The title might suggest that I am being judgmental, but what the title is really saying is that if you continue to live the lifestyle that most Americans are living, then that lifestyle will turn you into a pussy dependent on prescription drug companies. Pharmaceutical companies and food companies look at you as revenue from when you live to when you die. They want you to get sick. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

Joseph is also working on a cookbook for later release. Might we suggest the title, “Cooking Meat is for the Pussy Whipped?”
