Available Now: 99-Cent Ultimate Vegan Guide

Posted: 31 May 2011 12:48 PM PDT

Today's my most important advocacy day of the year, and I've just posted the following to my daily Vegan.com blog to let you know all about it:

If you're a regular reader, today's the day I could use your help. I've just published an updated 2011 edition of my popular Ultimate Vegan Guide. It's better than ever before, and this time around I've decided to cut away nearly all my royalties so that it can be priced as an impulse buy. The Kindle edition is just 99 cents, and the paperback edition has been cut from $14.95 to $8.95.

I don't have the budget to mail hundreds of copies of this book to reviewers across the country, but I have something infinitely more powerful than that. I have you.

Will you think about ways that you can leverage your standing within the vegetarian community to spread the word about this book? Some obvious steps include linking to the new release on your Facebook profile, your fan page, your twitter feed, and your blog. If you're active in any online vegetarian-oriented forums, I'd likewise be grateful if you could mention the book's release there.

Everything I just mentioned will take only a few moments to do, and it will help me immeasurably in allowing the book to reach more people. If you feel inspired to take even greater action, here are some big-time ways that you can help out:

  • Write a review of the new edition, emphasizing the 99-cent price point, and submit it to any websites, nonprofits, forums, or blogs where this title would likely be of interest. And of course, please also post your review on Amazon.com.

  • Got a friend or a family member with a Kindle? Buy them a copy! Just click the "Give as a Gift" button in the upper right corner of the Kindle edition's page on Amazon.com. You'll need to know the e-mail account that is associated with your friend's Kindle.

  • Finally, please think of any hard-core, serious animal advocates with whom you are on good terms, and make sure that you bring this book to their attention.

Changing the pricing of the vegan guide to make it as close to free as possible is one of the greatest sacrifices I've made to date for animals. I've basically decided to do away with one of my most important income streams, in the hope that this choice will result in the book getting into tens of thousands more hands. But the make or break is whether my friends will seize this moment and step up to give this book the push it needs. Can you help The Ultimate Vegan Guide go viral?

Here are the pages to link to:

I'd love to see this book rocket into one of Amazon's top hundred or thousand Kindle books. I'm doing all I can, and now whether this book goes viral or not is up to you. Will you help?

BIG CAT CAUGHT ON ABU DHABI STREETS
Dubai, United Arab Emirates - A city of gleaming skyscrapers along the Persian gulf hardly seems a fitting habitat for a cheetah, but there it was prowling among residential villas in Abu Dhabi.  An animal-welfare activist who helped rescue the urban cheetah on Sunday said it might have been kept as a pet and had an injured front left paw -- perhaps from leaping off a roof, where some owners of exotic pets keep their animals.  Raghad Auttabashi of the Al Rahma Animal Welfare and Rescue Society said the big cat appeared to be 7 or 8 months old and was found with a broken metal chain around its neck.  It is not clear how the cheetah got free in Abu Dhabi's Karama district, a short drive from the Emirati capital's waterfront.  Animal-control authorities caught the cheetah, which was later handed over to a wildlife conservation center, Auttabashi said. It's not the first time an exotic animal has been found roaming streets in the UAE.  In December, a cheetah was captured near a mosque in Sharjah, the emirate north of Dubai. Thai authorities arrested an Emirati citizen at Bangkok's international airport earlier this month after they found drugged baby leopard panthers, a bear and monkeys in his suitcases.

"HEALTHY" FAST FOOD MAY NOT BE SO HEALTHY
Innocent-Looking Choices, Salads Pack Sodium And Fat
by Andrea Walker, The Baltimore Sun
.......The five worst "healthy" fast food items are:
Wendy's Baja Salad -- contains 1,990 milligrams of sodium -- more than would be consumed in an entire day
McDonald's Fruit and Maple Oatmeal -- contains more sugar than a Snickers Bar
Subway Fresh Fit 6-Inch Turkey Breast Sub -- with standards such as cheese and mayo, this "low-fat" sandwich jumps to 24 grams of fat. Contains processed meat, which is linked to increased cancer risk.
Sonic Strawberry Smoothie -- contains more sugar than five Twinkies
KFC Kentucky Grilled Chicken -- contains PhIP, a chemical classified as a carcinogen by the federal government
 
 

RMJfA- Every Creature Counts Also Has Low-cost

spay/neuters and dental services.  They are in Ft. Lupton, however, but that isn't too far away.  Here's the link:
  They do feral cat neuters for only $15, and low cost dentals - my rescue  rotty had to have 8 teeth pulled during her cleaning, and they only charged $125.
  Just FYI everybody.  Thanks.

RMJfA- Fw: Fwd: dentals now available

In case your rescue animals need dentals, this is a great deal.

Subj: dentals now available
 
Hi everyone,
This is to let you know that we have partnered with Dr. Kristin Wells to provide dental services for your shelter/rescue animals. She will be charging $110 for a dental scaling/polishing, plus $10
for each tooth extracted (meaning most "bad" dentals will probably be around $200). Dentals will be available on Mondays starting June 6th.
Please call SpayToday to schedule a dental at the time of spay/neuter, if you need just a dental please call Dr. Wells at 303-332-8181 (make sure she know you are scheduling for a rescue animal).
Thanks for your support.
Dr. Piccoli
