Don’t drink so much! Tips on Saving Water & the Environment

I got this email today from Take Part – Social Action Network and I wanna share some of the tasty shit with you.

6 Things You Can Do to Save Water

3Just a little effort can make a big difference in conserving water. While fresh, clean drinking water is ours to use whenever we need it, none of us can afford to waste it. It’s too valuable. Here’s what you can do:
1. Water your lawn only when it needs it. A good way to see if your lawn needs watering is to step on the grass. If it springs back up, it doesn’t need water. If it stays flat, fetch the sprinkler.
2. Water during the cool parts of the day. Early morning generally is better than dusk because it helps prevent growth of fungus.
3. Plant drought-resistant trees and plants.
4.
Use a broom, not a hose, to clean driveways and sidewalks.

5. Wash your car at a commercial car wash. They recycle the water.
6. Collect condensate water from air conditioners and use it to water your plants.

Raptors Dance Pak hottie – Miss Jenie, my sis!

In the front row of the finals, my sister stands near the far left as one of the newest members of the NBA’s Toronto Raptors Dance Pak (white shorts).

I am so proud of you girl!! Look for Jenie during the upcoming Raptors season cheering on the team, motivating the crowd & strutting her amazing dance skills. The Toronto Sun presented auditions at the ACC on Sunday. About 100 girls tried out for the 14 available spots on the team.

Love you babe! Great work!

Back it up Barack!

Vote for ME & MY face….PLEASE!

I clicked on a Facebook ad about getting some free glasses & I entered my little face in the contest. They have a philosophy that grooves with me and a message that moves my soul to a creative beat:

DREAM BIG. THINK BIG. LIVE BIG. HOOKED ON LIFE. FYSHNATION.COM
FYSH is an ‘urban kool’ (u.k.) eyewear company. They are located in Montreal and have some pretty cool styles going on that I would really like to have. They also have some chillin’ tunes on their site which I pleasantly kept playing while snooping around the site. So, here is my face (in ‘case’ you may not have seen it before), maybe I should have had glasses on, but that is WHY I need some!! You can go VOTE HERE & click on “Be the next face of fysh” then click on “View All Candidates” at the bottom of the ‘bill board’ image. and just type in my name or go to page three.
Thank you very much!! ♥ Love xo.

Thanks Blog T.O.!! Together we did it!!

Live Kangaroos in Nightclub Averted

Blog TO posted the following on July 26, 2008:

Tonight’s This Is Australia event at Richmond St. nightclub This Is London promises to “transform London into the outback” with DJ Chris La Roque’s outback mash-up sounds, a chance to win a trip to Australia and… live kangaroos?

blogTO reader Michelle Palmer brought this event to our attention via a Facebook thread (MY NOTE!!!!) initiated by her animal-loving friends. A number of people contacted the club, organizers and animal rights groups such as PETA, protesting the planned appearance of live kangaroos, which would have been caged around the club premises.

I spoke with This Is London’s Sherry Rampersaud, who confirms that “the club has reconsidered and there will be no kangaroos at tonight’s event.” Party organizers INK have not responded as of press time.

Activism is not usually the main reason why people sign up on online networking sites, but it is good to know that social and ethical issues are being addressed alongside who’s poked who and who’s in an open relationship, whether the actions of the thread members and their friends were directly involved in the organizer’s final decisions or not.

Craziness in Dubai!!

I was looking at this today and it totally amazed me. Check out some photos of what is in the works for the Dubai waterfront. I included some photos, however I recommend looking at the site.

When completed it will be the largest waterfront development in the world.


Check out the world’s first underwater hotel!!

we saved their Aussie asses! No Kangaroos displayed, they cancelled it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NEWSFLASH: Kangaroo Update

I recieved a call from PETA’s office in California this evening. After my message being rerounted from the London, England office to LA they took immediate action. PETA has contacted the venue, This Is London and the parent company INK. There was not a manager available for comment however they are doing all they can to make sure there are NO KANGAROOS or WALLABIES AT THIS IS LONDON.
I let her know we will do all I can for the cause!!

♥ Thanks guys!

So he turned it off for her…

“I’ve spent all my fun chips and now I’ve parked my drinking boots in the closet. I haven’t had a drink in four years. There wasn’t any real specific bottom to it. I was just ready to graduate from adolescence and try my hand at being an adult. And, quite honestly, the woman I was in love with was not really that tolerant of it, so I turned it off.”
