U.S. Report issues "Warnings and Concerns" about BPA-
2008-04-18 06:00:00 Finally! The National Toxicology Program, in its draft report, labeled BPA as a chemical of concern (shocking, I know, to anyone who has been reading anything about parenting lately, especially this blog and many others-). The National Toxicology Program's findings are used by the FDA and the EPA to regulate certain chemicals. These findings are much different than an expert panel found just last year, but those studies have been widely disputed because of much of the study done by scientists hired by the chemical industry (no conflict of interest there!). In this article from today's Washington Post, I learned that 3 states are considering outright bans of BPA: California (ah, the sunshine state may do it again), Maine, and New Jersey. Where is Vermont?Now it looks like some politicians are paying attention, too, and calling on the FDA to regulate the use of BPA. It's heating up folks. And everyone thought we were overreacting. Take action to tell baby bottle manufacturers to st...

Warnings from God's Prophets
2008-04-17 11:35:00 For the next five days, including the weekend, I am going to post prophetic end time words that I have found about the end of days. These words are very strong and I am hoping that you, my dear reader, take heed to them.The first one got my attention because part of it has similar words that the Lord gave me. I have wrote them before, but will repeat them here. I was sitting in a room with several prophets. There was a lot of chatter going on. I heard one woman say, "Well you know, what Satan meant for harm, God will turn to good." I suddenly heard God say, "Stop saying that. You have turned My words into a cliche. In your finite minds you look at something and see ugly and then define it as evil. How dare you. How do you know that what you define as ugly or evil is not My hand at work." This taught me to reassess everything I see and hear. Now, if I see something that I may define as ugly or evil I ask God,"What are you doing here?"So, with that in mind, here is the propheti...

Cigarette Warnings
2008-04-07 20:10:00 Cigarette Warnings Recent Canadian government research has shown that cigarette smoking not only impairs sexual ability, it actually causes shrinkage of the male sexual "equipment." Wow! If that is true, we need to get the word out ASAP! Maybe the warning on the cigarette packs should be updated to reflect this new information. How about something like this: * Warning: These cigarettes are king size -- how about you? * Warning: Smoking sections in restaurants aren't the only things getting smaller. * Warning: If you don't reduce your smoking, your smoking will reduce you. * Warning: Smoking may lead to ridicule on your honeymoon. * Warning: Smoke rises, but you may not. * Warning: Second-hand smoke can be harmful to children -- That is.. if you're capable of conceiving any. * Warning: Cigarettes get shorter the more you puff -- so do you. * Warning: How can you enjoy a smoke afterwards, if there's no before? * Warning: The only thing left after a smo...

Ignoring the Warnings?
2008-03-12 05:00:00 I sometimes suspect that the Boy Crisis may be a bit too abstract for some people, like Third World poverty or the trainwreck that is Britney Spears. In other words, it's easy to understand, from a distance, that something is very, very wrong, but except for a select few (like people who work for international aid organizations, or Starbucks barristas in the case of Ms. Spears) you rarely see the damage up close and personal. So, when I tell you that according to any number of measurements, boys are slipping and in trouble, it may seem like something to be concerned about, but still distant. Unfortunately, the way these distant and abstract problems work is that you rarely realize how serious they are in time to forestall them--instead people wait and deny that the situation is all that urgent. Until one day they're in the ballroom of the Titanic with waist-high water and Billy Zane shooting at them, wondering why they didn't realize earlier that the island of i...

Battery -some warnings
2008-02-24 16:15:00 1. Do not store a lithium battery with a very low charge for a long time, the battery monitor will draw a small current, which might cause a 'deep discharge' which may cause damage to the battery.2. Avoid cheap, knockoff chargers as they may cause excessive battery heating.3. When buying lithium ion batteries, be aware that oxidation begins at the time of manufacture, not the time of first use. As such, older lithium batteries will have reduced capacity (about 20% per year stored at room temperature). If you buy a battery at a clearance sale price, expect that you will get less life out of the cell phone.4. Never dispose of old batteries in the trash. Batteries contain toxic metals, and electronic waste from batteries and other electronic components is becoming a major problem. Improper disposal of toxic batteries is illegal in many jurisdictions..THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

EMEA recommends new warnings and contraindications for rosiglitazone
2008-02-10 06:16:00 The European Medicines Agency (EMEA) has recommended updating the product information for rosiglitazone-containing antidiabetic medicines. Rosiglitazone is available in the European Union as Avandia (rosiglitazone maleate), Avandamet (rosiglitazone maleate/metformin) and Avaglim (rosiglitazone maleate/glimepiride).During its January 2008 meeting, the Agency’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted a scientific opinion recommending the inclusion of a new warning stating that the use of rosiglitazone in patients with ischemic heart disease and/or peripheral arterial disease is not recommended.The CHMP also adopted an opinion recommending the addition of a new contraindication stating that rosiglitazone must not be used in patients with an acute coronary syndrome, such as angina or some types of myocardial infarction, because the medicine has not been studied in controlled trials in this specific patient group.Source: http://www.emea.europa.eu/pdfs/-human/press/...

If the Associated Press Wrote Product Warnings
2008-01-22 05:58:00 Recently I came across a very disturbing news item on Yahoo. Here is a quote:"More and more foods bear a mishmash of warnings that they might accidentally contain ingredients that could seriously sicken people with food allergies. Yet there are signs that the labels are creating confusion among families that should heed them ? even as new testing shows there is a real, if probably small, chance that foods with even the most vaguely worded warnings truly pose a risk." - Food Label Warnings Seen as Confusing, Yahoo! (AP) NewsThank goodness we have the Associated Press to point out the dangers of unclear writing, eh? I mean, I think that's what they are pointing out. I read that paragraph six times and I'm still not entirely sure. Every time I think I've got a choke-hold on one of those sentences, it twitches and lurches in some wholly unexpected direction. Now if it was me, I'd write something like:You know those labels that you see all over food packages these days that war...

Rain of Terror: Storm Warnings of More Tyranny to Come
2007-11-19 13:49:00 by Chris Floyd For years now, Britain has been the canary in the mineshaft — or perhaps a patient etherized upon a table — when it comes to the daylight robbery of ancient liberties by a "Terror War" state. In many cases, the "New Labour" regime has been far in advance of the Bushists in the practice of this dark art. Not so much the backroom stuff, of course; as we've noted here often, Bush and his minions have long claimed — and exercised — the power to snatch people without warrant or charge and stuff them into hidey holes and torture them (or even kill them outright). But in terms of an upfront lockdown of ordinary citizens, and the introduction of Soviet-level draconia in daily life, the Brits have been leading the way, setting examples that the American militarists have eagerly aped. What has been especially instructive is the way that the British public has meekly accepted these vast encroachments, in the face of a threat that is i...

The Nation: Kucinich's Warnings Against War with Iran Must be Heard Before
2007-10-26 21:16:00 Those echoes that Americans are hearing in the noisy-and-getting-noisier debate about Iran are from 2002 and 2003, when members of the current administration were busy spinning the fantasy that the United States needed to attack Iraq. George "Uranium From Africa" Bush sure sounds like he wants to attack Iran. Just last week, the president said, "I've told people that if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them (Iran) from (obtaining) the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon." Dick "Greeted As Liberators" Cheney sure sounds like he wants to attack Iran. This week, the vice president declared: "Our country, and the entire international community, cannot stand by as a terror-supporting state fulfills its grandest ambitions." Secretary of State Condoleezza "Mushroom Clouds" Rice sure sounds like she wants to attack Iran. "Unfortunately the Iranian government continues to spurn our offer of open negotiations, i...
