Comments Off on Report Says Colleges Bow Down To Michael Pollan Liberal Agenda
"The Omnivore's Dilemma" Michael Pollan
The National Association of Scholars has compiled a report titled “What Do Colleges Want Students to Read Outside Class?” that accuses colleges of designing summer reading programs for incoming freshman that include books aimed to “either explicitly promote a liberal political agenda or advance a liberal interpretation of events.”
Michael Pollan‘s “The Omnivore’s Dilemma” is on the association’s list and is said to be “promoting environmentalism and animal rights.” Yes, a real waste of reading, that’s for sure.
Comments Off on Homer Simpson Voice, Dan Castellaneta, Is Vegetarian Millionaire
Homer Simpson may be a meat eating, donut devouring, less than fit character on The Simpsons, but the guy who lends his voice to the nuclear power plant dad is anything but.
According to Hispanic Business, Dan Castellaneta is a teetotaler vegetarian who exercises every day and practices yoga.
Earning approximately $400,000 per episode, Castellaneta pulls in roughly $8 million a year for his “D’oh!” talents.
That’s more than enough to buy all the organic food he wants from Whole Foods.
A finalist in Britain’s Got Talent sustains her energy by following a vegetarian, organic diet.
She’s also enjoys being petted by fans.
Twelve year old Chandi is the dog of 37-year old Tina Humphrey from Shropshire, and the two are finalists in the talent reality TV show, with Chandi carrying the bulk of the talent.
It should come as no surprise that Chandi will only eat meatless–organic vegetables and cheese, because that’s what all serious professional athletes do.
“She’s on an organic raw food diet too – she is an athlete after all,” Humphrey told The Sun.
Chandi’s favorite treat is mild cheddar and although the brand can vary, it’s imperative that it’s organic.
