We have been raised in the culture of "more money equals more happy." But this old axiom doesn't seem true anymore, if it ever was. |

As the Hollywood writers themselves predicted, the strike has been going on for months and months. The New York Times has an entire section devoted to the action initiated by the Writers Guild of America. The big boys are back on air and we are ecstatic to see Colbert and Letterman kicking it again. What about the rest of the pack?

Bideawee is a no-kill animal shelter that has a special program designed to help individuals save animals.
For $24/month members can help give a shelter
animal a second chance. With funds from this program, Bideawee rescues animals who
are scheduled to be euthanized at kill shelters and cares for them at their
own shelters (three locations in the New York area) until they are adopted
(which sometimes takes months or years).
Those interested in donating to Bideawee
but not in signing up for this program can visit their website.
All donations, big or small, enables Bideawee to continue the rescue and
rehabilitation work that it does.

According to GreenDimes, a company that prevents paper junk mail and unwanted catalogs, over 100 million trees and 28 billion gallons of water are wasted annually on US junk mail alone.
What GreenDimes aims to do is cut 90% of this unnecessary mail and plant 5 trees per member. For those of us that look forward to J. Crew's merino colors for fall and Pottery Barn's latest entertainment solutions, there is a Catalog Screener where members can opt out of only the catalogs they want stopped (there are 3,000 in total).
The lifetime fee is $20, and if you create a GreenDimes account and refer friends, you get a $3 Referral Bonus for every person who signs up for a GreenDimes service. For the GreenDimes blog, click here.
