Posted By Dr. Mercola | August 30 2010

Eggs are the culprit behind a U.S. salmonella outbreak that caused hundreds of illnesses each week in June and July. A nationwide egg recall now involves more than a dozen major brands that got eggs from Wright County Egg.

The CDC and state investigators found clusters of salmonella food poisoning among people who ate eggs at the same restaurants.

Those restaurants got eggs that came from Wright County Egg. Investigations continue in Arizona, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, North Carolina, Nevada, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Texas.

According to WebMD:
“The brand names included in the recall are Lucerne, Albertson, Mountain Dairy, Ralph's, Boomsma's, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms, and Kemps. Recalled eggs are in six, dozen, and 18-egg cartons.”

Over half a billion eggs from two Iowa farms have now been recalled, after authorities linked them to more than 1,000 cases of salmonella poisoning across the United States.

Recalled Eggs’ Supplier a “Habitual Violator”
The massive egg recalls came from the Iowa farms Wright County Egg and Hillandale Farms, both of which use Quality Egg for supplies of young chickens and feeds. Both Quality Egg and Wright County Egg are owned by Austin Jack DeCoster, a businessman who has been cited for health and safety violations so many times he’s known as a “habitual violator.” ]]> POLITICS THAT EFFECT HEALTH BODYREFLEXION http://www.proactivehealthnet.com/healthBB/showthread.php?t=7276 Beans are bullets http://www.proactivehealthnet.com/healthBB/showthread.php?t=7275&goto=newpost Tue, 31 Aug 2010 00:42:06 GMT Hey guys...I just hadda share this with ya.

If you like to see historical stuff, you will have a field day at the link waaaaay at the bottom of this message. I originally found this in an e-newsletter from www.grist.org today. Grist and I disagree a lot, mostly because they are primarily right-leaning and because of their views on "climate change". But occasionally they have something decent enough to share. ;)

To get you started, I will include this quote and hopefully you'll decide to keep going and look through the whole thing. It takes some time because there is a lot to read and a lot of vintage posters to view, but it's interesting how things DON'T change, really, except the identity of the "criminals" from one decade to another, with our government being the leader of the pack, of course.

"All you gentlemen have to do is to induce the American people to change their ways of living — that's all.”
— John S. Pardee, chief of the Publications Section of the Food Administration, addressing State Educational Directors, with irony, 1917. *I'm going to assume that the "Food Administration" was the predecessor of the modern FDA.

There are a variety of ways to view the photos of the posters; you can click the individual photos or you can click at the top or the bottom of the pages where it says *next image*. To view specific parts (WWI and WWII, etc.), go to the top of the page where it says (in very small print) *sections* and *overview*.

Enjoy!

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again.

13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.

14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever.

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?

16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

19. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

21. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.

22. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.

23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.

24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.

25. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said?

26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!

27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear get dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.

28. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

29. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'll bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!

30. My check engine light has been on for three months now and nothing's happened. I'm starting to think that my car is just an attention whore.

31. I don't understand the purpose of the line, "I don't need to drink to have fun." Great, no one does. But why start a fire with flint and sticks when they've invented the lighter?

32. Sometimes I pretend not to remember details about people because having a good memory apparently equates to creepiness.

33. My GPS says "Estimated Arrival Time." I see "Time to Beat."

34. Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".

35. My keyboard needs a removable crumb tray like my toaster.

36. What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?

37. I wish it were appropriate to say to a complete stranger, "Excuse me, would you like me to show you how to discipline your child?"

38. I never understood why the Lions and Cowboys always get to play on Thanksgiving. Shouldn't the Patriots play the Redskins, and then steal their stadium afterwords?

39. Chocolate is not a treat, it is a food group.

40. Double-Stuffed Oreos should just be called Oreos, and regular Oreos should be called Diet Oreos.

PRP is located in New Alexandria, PA (exit at New Stanton on the PA Turnpike and you'll be 25 minutes from the track). The track is close to Latrobe, PA, the home of PGA legend Arnold Palmer.

Thanks to IHRA's racer and fan-friendly format, you can see two complete 1/8th mile races in the same weekend at PRB (Race #1 on Saturday; Race #2 on Sunday).

We hope to see you there. ]]> Drag Racing Go2Cal http://www.proactivehealthnet.com/healthBB/showthread.php?t=7270 About Us, Registration, Disclaimer, Fair Use http://www.proactivehealthnet.com/healthBB/showthread.php?t=7269&goto=newpost Sun, 01 Aug 2010 16:30:36 GMT
