Pasadena is a progressive place full of hipsters, health-conscious yogis, and a great big Whole Foods outlet, two of them in fact on opposites sides of town. The Two-story supermarket and mass eating emporium is holding a "Vegan Pic Workshop" and a "No Sugar Challenge" in addition to the monthly free yoga classes from Yoga Works and its many other events and offerings

And in exciting protest news our friend Nick at Cal Poly Pomona beat college officials who tried to restrict his vegan club leafleting to a limited "free speech zone." Students needed a signed badge to even do or say anything within the designated freedom area. He sued on freedom of speech grounds and won a settlement for all free speech advocates on anything controversial the university wants to control or suppress. The school settled and Nick has been on the radio (kfiam640.com) and local papers (latimes.com).
