Jim Morris

Meet Jim Morris.

He’s a 77-year old bodybuilder.

Although that statement itself is newsworthy, there’s more. The former Mr. New York (1966), Mr. California (1970) and Mr. Universe (1977), turned vegetarian at 50, then vegan at 65.

Morris explained to Frugivore Magazine how dropping all animal products did much more than get him ripped.

“Prior to becoming vegan I suffered digestive problems all my life, mainly constipation. I started taking anti inflammatory medication in 1966 for my joints. At one point I was getting cortisone injections directly into both elbows every week. The arthritis kept me awake at night.”

Life After Top Chef - Season 1

At first mention, Life After Top Chef sounds like a knock-off of a celebrity reality TV show where 80s and 90s one-hit-wonders, teen heartthrobs and the likes attempt one more shot of fame before finally losing their complete hairlines.

But it’s actually an exciting series from Bravo featuring Top Chef‘s big names that are already doing quite well like Fabio Viviani, Richard Blais, Spike Mendelsohn and Jennifer Carroll, who’s opening the vegetarian-friendly Concrete Blonde in New York City’s West Village.

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012 in Food & Drink, Not So Vegetarian, Politicians.

Bill Clinton

Bill Clinton was talking to Piers Morgan on the requirements for presidential candidacy when he  remarked that he could be the president of France for several reasons.

“There are only two countries I’m eligible to run for the leadership position is if I move to Ireland and buy a house, I can — I can run for president of Ireland, because of my Irish heritage.

“And because I was born in Arkansas, which is part of the Louisiana Purchase, any person anywhere in the world that was born in a place that ever was part of the French empire, if you move to — if you live in France for six months and speak French, you can run for president.”

French journalist Layla Demay has a different view of Clinton running France. In an article at the Huffington Post, Demay wrote she doubts anyone who doesn’t eat meat and dairy to ever hold such as position.
