Bobby Alt and his bandmates in S.T.U.N. have been busy this summer. With the hectic schedule of Warped Tour, as well as an all new solo album, it’s surprising that Bobby even had the time to work with peta2. Somehow he managed to squeeze us in to make an awesome trading card and to record a PSA. Now, to add to all of that, we’re giving you a chance to win tons of free stuff from S.T.U.N., Vision, Hoven.

The National Education Association, the largest organization of educators in the United States, has announced that it’s teaming up with the fad “Atkins” diet to promote so-called “sound nutrition”.
With Atkins’ new deal to underwrite the NEA’s nutrition and exercise efforts, the public can be assured that parents, kids, and teachers will be inundated with “low-carb” messages promoting meat and other fatty foods. Low-carb diets have been condemned by health organizations worldwide, including the American Heart Association, because they often lead to high cholesterol levels and other problems. The Atkins diet also undermines efforts to promote healthy, plant-based diets, which offer students sound nutrition based on meals that are low in fat and cholesterol-free.
Click here and let the NEA know how outraged you are that they have sold out to the dangerous fad-diet industry.
Have you taken a look at the “All Actions List” recently? There are a few all new ways to earn Street Team points. You can now stream PETA videos on your Web site, donate animal rights videotapes to a video rental store, ask your local coffee shop to offer soy milk (if it doesn’Äôt already), and more!
Along with the new actions are some new Street Team Goods. There’s something for everyone, includingthe new PETA Christmas ornament and some yummy vegan marshmallows.

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)

It’s disgusting how the NEA actually got to considering the Atkins’ diet to be imposed on the national schools. Although I’m not an American citizen, I’ve written in to them – leaving the NEA with no excuse for not being well informed of the massive drawbacks to the diet… which beats the purpose in the first place.
The new additions to the Street Team goods are just in time for everyone to work for the points for Christmas. Nice work. Especially the edible items.
*AN IDEA [ to the admin ] : How about adding to the ST goods, a one[1] year subcription to Animal Times with a value of say, 10 000 ST points?
[!] REMINDER [ to all who is reading ] : AMERICAN CITIZEN STREET TEAMERS ESPECIALLY, PLEASE PRESSURE THE NEA!
