Does HIV = Aids and Obama's Voting Record

Hi Jaymee,

I don't think much of Obama, but I did read and sign the petition. Obama's voting record almost matches Hilary's to a T, always pro-business and anti-individual. You don't get to run with the wolves unless you're one of the pack. Hilary had the strongest business ties on record and now Obama will gladly fullfill her partisan obligations.

One recent example of Obama's tyranical behavior was his support for a bill that would require the mandatory testing of mothers for AIDs. There's j… Continue

"So you really don't eat meat?" - reply to a friend's e-mail

Hey Gang,

I'd love it if people would proof read this and give me suggestions on how I could make it clearer for future re-use.

Thanks,
Christian



Hi Shelby,



>have a question! so you really dont eat meat????



That's correct! I really don't like meat, most people think they do, but go ahead and give yourself a test. Try eating it raw? If you don't like it that means you probably like worchester

Nominated as one of Sacramento's 8 Exceptionally Green People

Hi Gang,

I hate to start my blog by bragging, but it was really an honor to be selected as one of Sacramento's eight exceptionally green people. My tips and photo will be in Sacramento Magazine's July issue. Granted a lot of my answers will be butchered in the article, but here they go:

Hey Christian-I JUST saw your comment you left on my page in like, April, haha(I guess I'm not on here much!). So how have you been? How is your summer going so far? School's great, almost over! And yeah theres a cafe gratitude here-a few of my roommates actually work there, and some other vegan restaurants that have raw stuff on the menu, totally digging the raw takeout! I'm still debating on whether or not to move back to Sac soon, but I'm hoping to go to more of the raw events in Sac as soon as I can get more time off from work-so maybe I'll see you around then!
Take care:-)

I'm a huge fan of John Robbins. Have you read his book, Reclaiming Our Health?

Hi Christian. Yeah, maybe we have walked by each other without even knowing it! I didn't realize that Pollan went to the Berkeley market. Cool, I might have to make the trek down to Berkeley -- it would be fun to talk to him.

Hi Christian. Great to meet you. I've read Omnivore's Dilemma. A very eye-opening, thought provoking book!

hello Christian! I just did a search for Seattle folk in this community, and would love to keep in contact for some local support.

Hey Christian!

Thank you for the comment! I actually have made apple sauce, and a lot of it. We have a small apple orchard in our yard so every summer when the apples are ripe my dad makes a ton of apple sauce and apple fruit roles. yum. I run for my high school and next year I will run on the claremont mckenna/scripps/harvey mudd team. Do you enjoy any sports?

Have a super day!

Well, I never wasted away and actually feel that some of my deficiencies from poor digestion are turning around. But while I am getting the calories and nutrients I need, I sure do need to eat a lot! I often think of animals, like goats or rabbits...

New Zealand is just more environmentally conscientious than most places. I guess being an island is part of the reason. I loved NZ when I visited.

You could make an avocado chocolate (or carob) mousse but sweeten it with stevia, so you'll only be getting the fat and not the sugar. Or you could make a green smoothie (or a regular, non-fat smoothie) and freeze it into sorbet:-)

The diet is mostly cultured, raw veggies and non-starchy veggies. The remaining 20% consists of either a protein or a starch (but never eaten together). It's strict in many ways. The goal of the diet is to not feed yeast in the colon, and to heal...
