    Aside from religious and health reasons, many people are vegetarian because they view the breeding and killing of animals for food as wrong. I think a lot of vegetarians wouldn't eat McDonalds even if they had vegan options because of the vast quantities of beef and chicken they sell. Seems like a fruitless action, but at least they are trying I guess.

    Developed in India, RISUG is one of a kind. It is a new form of temporary birth control that is claimed to have no hormonal side effects. I am curious to see if this type of medicine will be used in America in the near future and the cultural implications that it might have.
