One called the &#8220;Art of Bootstrapping&#8221; by Guy Kawasaki and the other called the &#8220;Ten Rules for Bootstrapping Your Business&#8221; by Thomas Frey.  I combined the tips, rules, advice (whatever you want to call them) from these 2 articles and made it into [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
I recently read how some Muslims are now drinking &#8220;non-alcoholic&#8221; beer, such as Odouls, thinking it&#8217;s halal, or permissible in Islam, to do so.  I did a quick search and found out that most, if not all, so-called non-alcoholic beer actually has trace amounts of alcohol in it, usually around 0.5% by volume. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Ever since I found out McDonalds contains beef fat in their fries and are not halal, I&#8217;ve hardly gone to eat there.  A filet-o-fish is not the same without their fries. Their french fries were the best!

To me, it was fairly obvious that it wasn&#8217;t real. But I kept telling the others in my group&#8230;.&#8221;well i&#8217;m not sure&#8221;&#8230;&#8221;maybe&#8221;&#8230;..just to [...]]]></description>

You might have recently seen the following video, in which Google employees went around the streets of New York, interviewing random people. Kind of like the weekly segment called &#8220;JayWalking&#8217; on Jay Leno&#8217;s show.  Here it is:
