And you're not going to defend pink slime are you?

Floor sweepings doused with Ammonia?

Oh come on it... it's finely ground gristle, hide and unmentionable parts. What's not to like? ;)

And ammonia has been the meat packers best friend for quite some time. It saves money by cutting down on the use of a janitorial service.

And sell it for $1.29 and make $$$....unless there's 'filler' and chemicals and anti biotics and obese people on the other end.

Every commercial non organic steer is fed Corid or Bovatec from the day it can eat on it's own to two weeks before it's slaughtered. Most cow feed comes with it already mixed.

Ear tags are now being used as a way to slow deliver wormers, systemic insecticides...you name it. And most steers receive estrogen supplements for added weight gain. I think that can be delivered via ear tag too.

Organic beef is supposed to be life long free of any chemical additives even wormers. Organic farmers use a combination of pasture rotation and organic feeds, and often diatomaceous earth and some herbal products to rid their animals of worms and insects.

If for any reason a steer needs antibiotics not of the homeopathic variety, that steer is usualy tagged and separated, or sold.

Notice the use of the word "insurance."

cluborlov.blogspot.com/

Insurance means there's a pay out.

But we have no idea what the pay out's going to be.

"Now, health insurance is a strange proposition to start with, because everyone dies, and nobody dies healthy, so most people require medical treatment at some point. (A few people spontaneously combust, I suppose. They are still none too healthy during the few seconds before they die, but that's not long enough for them to avail themselves of medical attention. But that's a very rare case.) The point is, if all houses burned down at some point, there would be no fire insurance, and if all houses flooded at some point, there would be no flood insurance. But everyone dies, and yet there is health insurance. How is that?"

"I wanted to know the adjusted price beforehand, but I was told that they do not give out this information. The adjustments are generated by an inscrutable computer program, which determines the numbers on the spur of the moment based on a set of formulas. Now, normally I don't do business with companies that refuse to quote a price before I place the order. That's where the tax penalty is most helpful to them: it leaves me no choice but do business with, and get robbed by, this company."

We're going top get Single Payer Medicare/VA. The question is how bad the USSA's Empire's doin' when it happens.

Same with Student Loans....;}

The Tuareg taking over an area twice the size of France.

"We can hear heavy fire coming in the direction of the main military camp," a Reuters reporter said.

"People here are running all over the place and all the shops are closing."

Mahamane Diakite, an aide to the governor of Gao, told AFP: "We can hear heavy weapons fire. We have also seen two helicopters taking off to shoot. Rebels have entered the town."

In the afghans:

"A member of a U.S.-backed Afghan village police force has killed nine of his fellow officers as they slept in a volatile eastern area, officials said. The Taliban claimed responsibility.

The gunman opened fire with his assault rifle after waking up at 3 a.m. on Friday, ostensibly to take over guard duty at a small command post for the Afghan Local Police in Paktika province. He killed everybody inside, including the post's commander, according to officials. He then took their weapons, piled them in a pickup truck and sped away.

These people are getting away. All of them. There is no collateral damage for the Taliban. And that is the deadliest formula for the USSA.

"Another ALP member was accused of involvement in the killing of nine members of his unit in March in southern Uruzgan province. They also were shot and killed while asleep at their post in the village of Oshi in the province's Charchino district. It remains unclear if he killed them or allowed a killer into the post, but he was never apprehended."

Today the Food and Drug Administration has announced that it will not take steps to bar bisphenol-A, or BPA, a known toxic chemical, from canned food and liquid infant formula containers.

Studies show that BPA leaches from epoxy linings of cans into food and drink, and resurfaces in breast milk, saliva, urine, amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood; the contamination is linked to many health problems including birth defects.

Deficit Reduction and Economic Recovery. The following is an ex of the pp of bulls**t that I got back:

The Unnecessary Pivot From Economic Recovery to Deficit Reduction Posted Jun. 14, 2011 By Loren Adler and Shai Akabas James Kennedy contributed to this post. Less than three years ago, the U.S. financial system barely averted a catastrophic meltdown, and the nation was embroiled in a severe recession. Our economy was analogous to a car rolling backwards down a hill at an uncomfortably quick pace. Thankfully, America’s leaders were able to hit the brakes and stop the skid with policies that, while far from ideal, returned the economy to a forward gear.

Oftwominds, Charles H SMith:

We have all experienced the disorientation and "brain freeze" that stress triggers. It seems these symptoms of stress have become normalized in countries where the authorities keep promoting phony "economic recoveries." The disconnect between what the authorities are claiming and what people are actually experiencing is widening, and that leads to stress. No wonder more and more people are "losing it" in public as their neural circuitry melts down under the strain of synthesizing what they experience (austerity) and what they're told (official spin about the "recovery").

Behaviorally, stress breaks down self-control, so it is no surprise that stress leads to bingeing, addictive behavior, impluse buying, etc.--all "knock-on" effects with negative consequences.

Chronic stress permanently degrades our ability to rationally analyze and plan, and so we act irrationally or erratically, as we are no longer able to stick to a conscious plan of coherent action. With the rational mind and self-control centers permanently suppressed, we are prone to "zombie" passivity, "sleepwalking" though life. This may help explain Americans' remarkable passivity as their civil liberties are taken away and their financial insecurity increases.

Many of the features of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are visible in "everyday Americans," and an understanding of how stress erodes rational thought and self-control helps explain why. -Charles H Smith

Such could contribute to the reelection of Obama, leading to Obama making several appointments to the Court, changing the balance of power at the Court. That’s one way to look at it.

Governor Romney has been the voice of reason in the Republican primaries, and has refused to turn his back on his core values or change his positions despite the scurrilous attacks from his opponents. Were he not running against a successful incumbent, I would have no hesitation in bestowing upon him my full endorsement.

Governor Romney’s excellent qualifications are, however, trumped by the superior record while in office of the incumbent, Barack Obama. Taking the presidential oath in the middle of the worst financial crisis since World War Two, Mr. Obama hit the ground running and was quickly able to restore the public’s confidence in the financial markets with his aggressive actions to curtail the shady dealings of Wall Street hucksters. Even before taking office, Mr. Obama signaled that he would not be representing business as usual by his staunch opposition to the Troubled Assets Relief Bill at the height of the 2008 campaign. Mr. Obama’s boldest move was unleashing the FBI and Department of Justice prosecutors on Wall Street, who then secured indictments against the big players who were most responsible for the rampant fraud that caused the housing bubble and the resulting crash in the financial markets.

So I wholeheartedly give my endorsement to Barrack Obama for the Re Election of the President of the United States.

The cheapest way for manufacturers to dispose of toxins is to get something to eat it. Whether eukaryote or prokaryote.

The cheapest way is to throw it into the nearest body of water.

And pay the local official in charge to look the other way.

The second cheapest is your suggestion, but we can't get any more to eat any faster and still Peak Pollution is on the way.

And speaking of someone not giving a rat's ass about feeding the Third World....

My responsibility is to feed my family, not the third world.

Exactly. So why don't you stay on threads where you have something to offer.... ;}

If the people in the third world want to eat, they should overthrow their socialist dictators and go to work.

And here's your problem du jour, jw.

You think poverty happens because the poor got to the gravy train station 10 minutes too late, when the actuality is that the poor are being held up at gunpoint daily.

The unemployment rate for those age 16 to 24 with bachelor's degrees stood at 8.1% in February, up from 4.6% four years earlier. Many others find themselves underemployed.

-CNN

The above is wrong. You don't get a bachelor's before age 21 for ex.

The frightening thing is that this is just the beginning. Things are going to get a lot worse in Greece. And in case you haven't been paying attention, these kinds of conditions are coming to the United States as well. We are heading down the exact same road as Greece went down, and the economic pain that this country is eventually going to suffer is going to be beyond anything that most Americans would dare to imagine.

we know weather is warmer and that human activity is the cause.

For global records, 2010 is the hottest year on record, tied with 2005.

The WMO, part of the United Nations, said the warmest 13 years of average global temperatures have all occurred in the 15 years since 1997. That has contributed to extreme weather conditions which increase the intensity of droughts and heavy precipitation across the world, it said.

"Global temperatures in 2011 are currently the tenth highest on record and are higher than any previous year with a La Nina event, which has a relative cooling influence," it said

Paul Michaelwaite from Netweather said: “As strange as it is to say this in March, it’s going to be a barbecue weekend.

“It’s pretty rare for it to be this warm, especially if you consider the average maximum temperature for March in the UK is just below 9C.”

Total Selected Records: 18009

Rainfall: 2913

Snowfall: 522

High Temp: 6809

Low Temp: 290

Low Max Temp: 634

High Min Temp:

6841
