Mayim Bialik Advice Guru Needs Vegan, Organic, Kosher Cuisine

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, October 1st, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

Premiere Screening For "REX"

Mayim Bialik wrote a bit of advice to a lost soul wondering what next step to take in their career.

“Lost In Space” got some great inspiration from Mayim, and a suggestion that if they were interested in taking the food industry on, there was a demand near her.

“If you find that your passion is vegan kosher organic cuisine, that dream is attainable too (and seriously needed in my neighborhood)!”

Mayim, in addition to being a successful actress and obtaining a PhD in Neuroscience, may be the next Dear Abby or Ann Landers.

Just listen to this additional piece of advice she gave “Lost In Space.”

1). Make a list of things you enjoy doing/skills you have.

2) Make a list of things you do NOT enjoy doing/are not cut out for. (Don’t be excessively self-critical; that’s what the rest of the year is for. Just be descriptive.)

3) Make a list of the things you could see doing that would make you excited to go to work and happy to be part of.

4) Make a list of the crazy jobs you never thought were within your reach, and don’t hold back; it’s just a list, it won’t bite.

Hmmm…Is Mayim taking clients for one on one therapy?

Celtic Woman Lynn Hilary Also Vegetarian Woman

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, October 1st, 2009 in Bands, Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink.

Celtic Woman

Celtic Woman

Have you heard about the Irish female musical ensemble, Celtic Woman, that performs both traditional Celtic as well as modern tunes.

Lynn Hilary, a member of the lovely lady group, joined Celtic Woman after a career with Riverdance.

Just as Hilary, a vegetarian, was keeping her eye out for more opportunities, she tries to take note of where the good vegetarian establishments are while on the road.

“I find it quite hard to find food in the States because it’s quite, very much meat-based food,” Hilary said. “I usually look up and see if I can find some kind of hippie place, a vegetarian place, and eat there.”

Maybe the other members of Celtic Woman will pitch in and buy Hilary an iphone with VegOut to celebrate their next album.

"Prom Night In Mississippi" - 2009 Sundance Portrait Session

Director, writer and producer Paul Saltzman will be leading a tour of India in February 2010 where the Beatles visited in 1968.

Saltzman was with Paul McCartney and the others during that trip and recalled how the environment fueled the creative juices of the band.

Q: The India trip was a very creative time for them, especially Paul and John. From your experience there, can you say why?
Paul Saltzman: For sure: creativity comes from deep within each and every one of us, and it’s unlimited, without end. At the ashram, an oasis of calm in their very hectic lives, with the sound of the Ganges River burbling below, flights of green parakeets in the trees, simple vegetarian food and daily meditation, the inner creativity just flowed to the surface.

Of course, creativity works much better when you’ve consumed wholesome, energy producing foods versus refined carbs or greasy meats that will leave you sluggish, drowsy, and motivated to do nothing but take a nap.

For more information on the tour Paul is leading in February, visit Bestway Tours at bestway.com or call 1-800-663-0844. From outside the US and Canada, call 604-264-7378.

Steve-O “Cut Class Not Frogs” Dissection PETA Ad

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, October 1st, 2009 in Actors, Animal Issues.

18743

Steve-O, the MTV Jackass star who’s real name is Stephen Glover, is the kind of mentor everyone needed in high school.

He’s joined forces with PETA in an anti-dissecting campaign that advises kids to “Cut Class Not Frogs.”

And who said the jackasses in class never amounted to anything when they grew up.

According to peta.org, “Every year, nearly 6 million animals, including frogs, rats, pigs, and cats” are dissected in classrooms.

Many alternative animal models exist, including frogs and pigs, and science literature indicates that these alternative methods, such as computer software, have been proven either equivalent of superior to the use of live or dead animals to help them understand biology and anatomy.
