[Intro from the latest issue of the Mad Cowboy Newsletter:
Howdy! Welcome to the 56th edition of the Mad Cowboy Newsletter. We a couple of special holiday treats today. First, a letter to y'all from the Big Guy himself. As Howard mentions, the Mad Cowboy Documentary recently won an Artivist Award. Here's the Press Release and a link to pictures taken at the event.
Also in this issue, we've a new interactive "Mad Cowboy Interview" with Dr. Suzanna Havala Hobbs. A well-known author, speaker, and nutritionist, Suzanna has just published her 10th book: "Get the Trans Fat Out: 601 Simple Ways to Cut the Trans Fat Out of Any Diet." You'll see some snippets from the interview and a link to the full two-parter below. If you aren't aware of Trans Fat in your diet, you need to be.
Reading onward, there's a lot of activity in the Mad Cow Info Round-up regarding BSE and related issues, several links to Veg'n Holidaze Recipes, more articles about vegetables helping prevent skin cancer, mental decline, and maybe cancers in general. There's information about new surveys of bacteria in purchased chickens, the infamous "Robo-Deer" and Singing Sheep, a disturbing new US law affecting animal issues activists, South Korea having the world's largest garbage-fueled power plant, a definitive study by the UN on the global climate change impact of meat-eating, and a surprise about what you can do with cell phones while shopping for food in Japan.
... and, as always, a tip of the hat to our new subscribers. Y'all can read past issues of the newsletter here.
Best Wishes to Everyone for a Happy Holidaze, Warm Winter Solstice, and Great New Year!
